The richest person in Chinese entertainment

Chapter 252: Mr. Zhang, a kind citizen, sent another one in

As October came, the wave of public opinion brought about by "The Voice of China" gradually faded away.

The only thing that left a trace is that on all the music charts in the world, at least five of the top ten songs are from "The Voice" of the two countries.

Zhang Chen, who had disappeared from the world's sight for three months, once again returned to everyone's attention in such a special way.

Foreign media have been following up on this incident for a week.

The final conclusion is that Zhang Chen is the most powerful pop singer-songwriter of all time, and has achieved unprecedented levels.

Even as great as Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson, they were not like Zhang Chen, who was able to write so many songs suitable for different types of singers at one time. Moreover, these singers, with these songs, have strongly ranked at the top of music charts in various countries, creating a spectacle of dominating the charts.

All the music in "The Voice of China" is only available for free listening to members, but there is no paid download function.

Therefore, Morning Light Entertainment also launched a "Voice of China Music Special", which includes all the songs that the program team owns the copyright to, almost covering all the songs, a total of 36 songs.

Among them, 4 English songs are Zhang Chen’s latest creations, and 10 of the Chinese songs are new songs, also written by Zhang Chen.

Among the other songs, many are also covers by contestants, and about half are covers of songs that Zhang Chen has previously released.

At the same time, this album also includes songs sung by several mentors and students, including Zhang Chen, Michael Jackson, and Madonna.

So as soon as this album was released, it was snapped up by people all over the world.

In just one week, the album sold a staggering 800 million copies worldwide. If it weren't for the fact that Morning Glory Music had insufficient stock, the number would have been even higher.

In the foreseeable future, this album will definitely become one of the best-selling albums in history, and it is not impossible for it to even reach the number one spot.

In all this promising situation, there are always people who can't help but jump out to find fault.

Weibo, someone who was taught a lesson by netizens a few months ago has started to give advice again.

Ai Dajin: "Our country's pop music can't be compared with the European and American music scene. Just look at the music charts of various countries. After the end of "The Voice of China", except for our country, the charts of various countries are all filled with songs from "The Voice of China". This is the gap, and we should reflect on it.

The English songs written by Zhang Chen are all popular among fans all over the world, but the Chinese songs he wrote are not. I think it is because our Chinese is inherently weaker than English, especially in the field of pop music.

"

Ai Da Jin wrote a short essay on Weibo in a very eloquent manner.

He "analyzed" the differences between the two countries from the perspective of a so-called literati, an intellectual studying in the United States, a member of an educated family, and a musician, highlighting that China's system lags behind the West in all aspects, especially in the field of music, which he mentioned, is at least several decades behind Western music.

Is he right?
In fact, it is partially true, that is, Chinese pop music lags behind European and American music.

Although that is not as exaggerated as a few decades, if we analyze it rationally, due to its late start, Chinese music does have many years less accumulation and development than European and American music. There is indeed a gap caused by objective factors.

But the gap is definitely not as huge as what Ai Dajin said.

In his short essay, Ai Dajin seemed to be advocating that Chinese is useless and that we should abandon it and push the whole nation to learn English and learn from the Western world in all aspects.

And it is not just about simple learning, but about completely abandoning one's own culture and comprehensively accepting what he calls "Western civilization."

Some public intellectuals say things like "there's shit in the food", but what he said is completely "there's rice in the shit".

Therefore, Chinese netizens began to comment below his Weibo post:

"I've heard that you're a nobody, but now it seems like I'm flattering you to say you're somebody."

"I call others dogs when I scold them, but when I scold you, I dare not call you a dog because I am afraid of insulting a creature like a dog."

"After studying abroad for a few years, you were tamed by your American dad?"

"When you said Yifei's songs were tacky, I thought you had bad intentions. Today, your ponytail finally showed up. It turns out you're a coward with a broken kneecap."

"Brothers, I have already reported it. I don't know if the country will reward it."

The longer the essay by Ai Da Jin is, the more intense the netizens’ condemnation becomes.

The harsher the insults from Ai Da Jin were, the harsher the insults from netizens were.

Zhang Chen had been paying attention to this matter until William, who was on the other side of the ocean, sent him an email.

"I've left him alone for several months. Does he think I've forgotten him?"

Zhang Chen muttered something and carefully read the content of the email sent by William.

It clearly records that someone wanted to make similar remarks on Weibo in foreign media, including Facebook.

After William discovered it, he reported it to Zhang Chen immediately.

But Zhang Chen did not stop it. This was not a vicious incident and there was no need to suppress it.

On the contrary, once it is published, there is solid evidence.

"Make a copy of the contents of the email and send it to the relevant department."

Zhang Chen pointed at the emails in his computer and gave Xue Yining an instruction.

He had been waiting for this day for several months, and he could no longer tolerate this kind of person who kept boasting about how sweet the air abroad was. Zhang Chen planned to send him directly to prison for proper reform.

Even if the information and data he has collected cannot send this person to jail, his personal identity can still be used to deal with him severely.

Sure enough, just one week later, the evening news reported:
"It has been verified that a man named Ai has been making inappropriate remarks for a long time, endangering national unity. After investigation and trial by the relevant departments, it has been decided to impose compulsory management measures on Ai. His criminal process will be tried soon."

No one would have thought from the calm tone of the news anchor that this person was once an intellectual who often made powerful remarks in this land.

Also, because there was not even a single photo showing the person's face in the news report, many people did not realize that the person who made all netizens angry a few days ago had already committed a crime.

The attitude of the relevant departments towards this matter is just like dealing with a trivial matter on Weibo.

Although the news reports are obscure, there is no wall that is impenetrable.

The next day, a relevant news reporter took a photo of the short man being taken away:
"Aidajin was taken away by relevant departments a few days ago and has not been seen returning home yet."

If we say that this person's remarks were only circulated in a small circle on the Internet some time ago, netizens also spontaneously went to his Weibo to comment and denounce him.

Once this piece of news came out and was linked to last night's evening news, many people realized that this matter was not simple.

When netizens went to comment on Ai Da Jin's Weibo, they were prompted that "This user's account is temporarily banned due to suspected illegal activities."

This can be said to have confirmed the netizens' speculations.

Just when they were thinking about where to express the comfort in their hearts, they found that Zhang Chen, who had not posted on Weibo for a long time, updated a status.

@张晨: Please call me Mr. Zhang, a caring citizen, from now on [picture of small pennant]

There are already quite a few comments under this Weibo post. The first comments are normal, but the comments that follow slowly make things clear:
"You haven't even received a trophy for your award, so what's so great about a small banner?"

"Mr. Zhang, a caring citizen, what did you do?"

"Hey man, Zhang Chen, did you report someone?"

"Hmm? Tell me in detail, brother upstairs!"

"Go watch last night's evening news, and then read the breaking news that a certain media just reported."

"As expected, it's you who sent another troublemaker in without saying a word?"

"Enthusiastic citizen? I think it's the disciplinary committee of the entertainment industry. Hahahaha, it makes people happy."

Zhang Chen was peeking at the comments on the computer screen, and he also opened a small account to continuously like some people's comments.

"Boss, it's time to go."

Seeing Zhang Chen slacking off, Xue Yining reminded her boss that it was time to work.

“Time flies by so fast.”

Zhang Chen smacked his lips, feeling that surfing the Internet was truly joyful.

Although there is not as much entertainment content available on the Internet as in later generations.

However, some of the current events and some netizens’ unique remarks are still quite interesting.

Moreover, Internet supervision is not that strict nowadays. The comments of netizens, including those of celebrities, are very bold and they dare to say anything.

"According to the market evaluation report, the company that the boss has chosen has good development prospects." Xue Yining handed a document to Zhang Chen.

"How much would it cost if I bought it directly?"

"About 1000 million RMB."

After hearing the offer, Zhang Chen nodded in approval.

Because he remembered that Shanda would invest 200 million US dollars to acquire the company next year, which is about 1500 million RMB.

This website has just launched an "online paid reading" service. It is in its early stages and its future development is still unclear. It is normal for prices to differ.

"During this time, I will collect some other types of websites. I need more kinds of literary works."

Zhang Chen had been waiting for the rise of Internet literature for a long time.

After all, if we want to export some culture to other countries in the future, the first choice will be Chinese online novels.

This is something that can help foreigners successfully quit something. You can imagine how attractive Chinese online novels are to foreigners.

Moreover, the Internet is just emerging now, and the world's Internet-related cultural industries have not yet exploded.

When online games are still in their infancy, translating online novels and promoting them overseas may have unexpected effects.

"Oh, by the way, remember to remind me to let Xixi check her stock account."

　The third one is coming
　　At the beginning of the month, I humbly ask for some monthly tickets and recommendation tickets~
　　If you think the book written by Xiao Pujie is okay, could you give me a reward?
　　Hehe
