The world of Chinese style creates a prosperous era for girl groups

In the conference room of Xiangjiang Dongzheng Records, Mr. Chen, wearing a professional dress, was holding a weekly meeting.

"Last week, Purple Lily Girl's album sales dropped by 60%. Is it because of the impact of new singers releasing albums?" Mr. Chen asked, looking at the last week's data table in his hand.

Music director Huang Wei nodded and continued: "Last week, the Tara girl group from Xia Haoyang Studio released a single, which gained momentum. It should be the main reason why our album was affected."

"Xia Haoyang's Tara has released another single, has Wei Zai heard it?" Mr. Chen looked at Huang Wei and asked.

"Yes, I have listened to it since it came out. Several songs and MVs are very well produced." Director Huang said matter-of-factly.

"Can you use a projector to show it in the conference room? I'll also watch their MV." Mr. Chen was very interested in Xia Haoyang's new song.

After 20 minutes, the MV finished playing, and everyone in the conference room fell silent.

It was Mr. Chen who spoke first: "There are several songs in this MV."

"Yes, there are four new singles in total, all of which are Xia Haoyang's latest creations. Two are faster in rhythm and two are more lyrical." Director Huang replied.

"The last song is about two girls hugging each other and one girl dies. Play that song again." Mr. Chen requested.

"Okay, this song is called "Day and Night". It is said to be the favorite piece of music voted by Tara fans in this short film." Director Huang added.

After fully appreciating this piece of music again, Mr. Chen raised another question: "Can we also contact a screenwriter to make a micro-movie of our musical work? How much will it cost approximately."

Vice President Liu coughed: "Actually, I have also considered this issue. I asked Xia Haoyang after their first music micro-movie was released. It is estimated that it would cost 80-200 yuan to hire a well-known screenwriter to create a new movie script. Wanhua National Coin, if it is an adaptation of an existing work, it may be more expensive, ranging from 120 million to 500 million."

"Is it so expensive to hire a screenwriter to write a musical work?" Mr. Chen said with a frown.

"With the current market situation, if you want to hire a well-known screenwriter in the industry, the price will not be lower than this." Vice President Liu said seriously.

"These musical movie scripts of the Tara girl group were all written by Xia Haoyang himself, including the movie they are about to release, which is also Xia Haoyang's own creation." Another Vice President Zhang also said.

"And it is said that Xia Haoyang himself has been studying script writing at Yancheng Film Academy for a year." Vice President Liu spoke again.

"I am learning to create and screenplay. The learning ability of young people is really terrible." Mr. Chen said to himself. "By the way, you just said that the movie they produced will be released. When will it be?"

\"The film's title is "So Beautiful" and it will be released on August 8th." Director Huang replied.

"Weizai, when the time comes you buy two tickets and you come with me to see it." Mr. Chen said seriously.

In the music director's office of Chiyo Records, the music of "Twinkle" was floating throughout the office. Mr. Wang was nodding along with the rhythm of the music while looking at last week's data. After the song ended again, Mr. Wang turned off the music.

"EHS's album sales dropped sharply last week." Mr. Wang pondered for a while.

"Yes, the Crown girl group from Xia Haoyang Studio in mainland China has released a new work." Chief composer Teacher Liu said softly.

"You said Tara has released a new song?" Mr. Wang adjusted his glasses and looked at Teacher Liu and said.

"Yes, another movie MV has been released, which has been well-received. Both our albums and those of Dongzheng Viola Girl have dropped off a cliff last week," said Teacher Liu.

"Oh, what were their sales last week? The data room didn't write it down." Mr. Wang flipped through several documents in his hand.

"It's not written down, but it's here. Take a look, Mr. Wang." Teacher Liu handed over another piece of information.

After receiving the information, Mr. Wang carefully looked at the data comparison above. "The Purple Lily girl from Dongzheng is very fierce and is developing very rapidly."

"Yes, their new album sold 700 million copies in one month, which is amazing."

"Tara, 5 million copies in 820 days, is their new single so great?" Mr. Wang also saw Tara's data.

"Yes, it's another micro-movie MV, and it has a high reputation among fans."

"I haven't been able to get a song date from Xia Haoyang recently? Is it our family or everyone can't get a song date?" Mr. Wang remembered something.

"Two months ago, they issued an announcement on their official website, saying that Xia Haoyang was unable to write the song due to physical reasons. Until a few days ago, I asked the staff to go to Fat Cat Studio to make another song appointment, but they still used the same method The reason for rejecting us is, I think, this is for all colleagues in the circle, not just our family." Teacher Liu said seriously.

"That time we met at the singing arena, Xia Haoyang was actively promoting songs, but he has stopped accepting songs in the past few months? It's probably because of some disagreement within their studio." Mr. Wang said with a frown.

"It's probably because of the last three companies competing for hegemony that Xia Haoyang's studio has some concerns. His works are really exciting, with brainwashing melodies, and are suitable for girl groups. Whether they give us "Good Days" or "Twinkle", the quality is really good. Many of the songs for Purple Lily Girls are also very popular. There are different voices within them, and it is understandable that they hope that Xia Haoyang will not sell such high-quality works to his peers." Teacher Liu said matter-of-factly.

"Did our concert in Millikin last week get a bad reception?" Mr. Wang continued to ask.

"Yes, we found a stadium with tens of thousands of people, but the audience was sparse, maybe only one or two thousand people. The audience was not large, and the response was very poor, so the second North American concert was also cancelled." Teacher Liu did not hide it.

"How could that be? Didn't I hear that the Chinese in North America like our girl group very much?" Mr. Wang said with a puzzled look on his face.

"The online voting support rate is not low, but there are not many people on site." Teacher Liu was a little embarrassed.

"I remember that Purple Lily Girl went to London to hold a concert in April, and the effect was excellent." Mr. Wang said softly.

"Yes, media reports at the time said it was a zombie siege and extremely popular, so they also planned to hold concerts in other cities such as Paris in Gaul. It is said that they are currently the most popular Chinese girl group in Europe."

"It's not Xia Haoyang's Crown girl group but Dongzheng's Violet Lily group that first entered Europe and received good reviews. This is quite surprising. We continue to promote EHS's songs in the Chinese community in North America. The North American market is huge, so we still have to pick it up. Get up and promote it slowly." Mr. Wang said seriously.

"Understand, Wanwan is still too small. Mainland China and North America are the two largest markets. We strive to gain a firm foothold in the North American market."
