Chapter 283 The Scandal Is Rampant Again, and the Road to Genuine Products Is Difficult

Chapter 283 The scandal is rampant again, and the road to genuine products is difficult

It is so easy for a singer to suddenly become popular, even to become popular all over the world.

To become the most famous singer in the world in an instant like Psy with a song "Gangnam Style", it really requires the right time, place and people, and it is not easy to replicate.

But it is very common to suddenly become popular all over the world with a hit song like Avril, Justin Bieber and Maroon 5.

On average, every year, there are 3-5 singers in North America who become popular all over the world because of a hit single.

Now, this opportunity has fallen on Liu Yifei's head.

Under Wu Yuan's operation, "Call Me Maybe" only took half a month to quickly become popular all over the world, topping the iTunes charts in more than 20 countries, and selling over 6 million copies worldwide, making a big splash.

On YouTube, the number of views of the MV of "Call Me Maybe" also exceeded 50 million in half a month, becoming the hottest MTV video at the beginning of this year, and ranking first on the YouTube music channel play list.

The name Crystal Liu frequently appears on the Internet in North America and Europe. Photos of Liu Yifei, posters and fashion materials from her past shoots are circulated on the Internet in various countries.

We have to admit that her face is really good. Even at the international level, it is still the level of top oriental beauties.

With the support of the popularity of her works, Liu Yifei's face was quickly recognized and remembered by people all over the world.

Disney is the happiest one.

"Pirates of the Caribbean 3" will be released in May, and Liu Yifei can barely be regarded as one of the top five female second roles in this movie.

Now the popularity of this female second role has skyrocketed around the world, and Disney will certainly not give up this opportunity to promote itself.

Soon, the news about Liu Yifei's performance in "Pirates of the Caribbean 3", as well as some behind-the-scenes photos and videos, were widely circulated on the Internet in North America and Europe under the operation of Disney.

Many people who got to know Liu Yifei because of "Call Me Maybe" only found out at this time that this singer with a sweet voice is actually an actor, and she also starred in such a Hollywood super A production!

Although these fans who just fell in love with Liu Yifei would not spend money to buy tickets to watch "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" because of her, after this news was spread, her fans' impression of Liu Yifei was undoubtedly on the next level.

This time, Liu Yifei really became a big hit in North America, and her public popularity is several times higher than that of Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi combined.

There is no way, although Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi have won many awards in Europe and starred in movies with a box office of hundreds of millions in North America, their fame is still more well-known among people in the circle.

For example, Hollywood practitioners and European film industry elites must know Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi, but the general public is very unfamiliar with them.

In contrast, Liu Yifei, with a hit song and a very interesting MV, is more likely to be recognized by the North American public by taking the lower-class route.

Throughout March, the most popular and discussed singer in the United States is Liu Yifei.

Wu Yuan in a mansion in Los Angeles.

"Hey, senior brother!"

"Rolling Stone magazine said I am a new sweet song queen!"

"And American Music also praised my sweet voice, which is rare in the music industry now."

Liu Yifei hugged Wu Yuan's neck and laughed silly, with a smile on her face like a fool.

The past half month was like a dream for her.

Under Wu Yuan's magical operation, she went from an unknown newcomer to a famous sweet song queen in North America in just one month.

Although her main job is an actor, Liu Yifei is also very happy that she can be recognized and loved by the public because of her singing voice.

After all, she also loves singing privately. She also has a singer idol, Wang Jingwen. Every time she goes to KTV with her college classmates, songs such as "Red Bean", "The Book of Laughter and Forgetting", and "Promise" are her must-have songs.

It's just that her voice is really incompatible with Wang Jingwen's songs, and she can't sing her style.

On the contrary, the sweet song route arranged by Wu Yuan for her is very suitable for her.

Liu Yifei, who is eighteen or nineteen years old and twenty years old, has a really sweet voice. Her baby voice makes people feel soft when they hear it, unlike the mature voice after the age of thirty.

"Timberlake, who didn't pay much attention to the song "Good Time", now takes the initiative to ask when this single will be released."

Liu Yifei said with a smile: "Senior brother, you are really amazing!"

"Not only can you be a director and scriptwriter, but you are also so good at writing songs."

"I really picked up a treasure."

Wu Yuan raised his eyebrows, and there was also a little complacency.

Although he copied this song, it was indeed a good choice. From hundreds of popular songs in the future, he chose a song that best fits Liu Yifei's style, which is enough for him to be proud of.

Of course, Wu Yuan has signed many music creations in China before.

Including "I Want to See You, I Want to See You, I Want to See You" in "Your Name" and the theme song of the same name in "Those Years", the lyrics and composers are all signed by his name.

So when domestic netizens saw that the composer of "Call Me Maybe" was "Daniel Wu" this time, they didn't think it was a big deal.

When he wrote the theme song for his own movie, it was already widely discussed by domestic netizens. Now he is writing an English song, so there is no need to dwell on this issue.

In addition to sighing that Wu Yuan's talent is really too much, more attention is paid to the fact that Wu Yuan would personally write a song for Liu Yifei to praise her!

Liu Yifei's treatment is too good. Even if she is the top sister of the company, it shouldn't be like this. After being praised domestically and abroad, it seems that Liu Yifei is going to be promoted to become an international singer and actor!

Naturally, the relationship between Liu Yifei and Wu Yuan has once again triggered speculation and gossip among netizens.

If you say that there is no affair between Liu Yifei and Wu Yuan, only Liu Yifei's fans believe this.

Other netizens who joined in the fun all firmly believed that the relationship between Liu Yifei and Wu Yuan was definitely not a simple superior-subordinate relationship. There was definitely an affair between them, otherwise Wu Yuan would not have supported her so much!

A simple promotion of his own artist could no longer be a reason for Wu Yuan's actions.

Some people in the circle, mainly a small group of stars who were jealous of Liu Yifei, even secretly changed their accounts to expose various rumors on the Internet.

Some people with moral bottom lines just took Wu Yuan and Liu Yifei's relationship to the Internet to talk about it publicly.

But some people who had no moral bottom line and were completely blinded by jealousy spread rumors on the Internet, saying that Liu Yifei was actually kept by Wu Yuan, and the resources Wu Yuan gave were just maintenance fees.

What's more, some even said that Liu Yifei was with her mother...

There was no picture at the beginning, and it was just made up by a mouth, but it was precisely this kind of peachy rumor that made the netizens who surfed the Internet like to hear and talk about it.

The Internet has just entered thousands of households in China. This kind of channel that allows people to chat with people from all over the country without leaving home and get in touch with various so-called "inside information" and "secret rumors" is still at a stage where it is easier for people to believe.

Just like most netizens now believe the rumors that Fan Xiaopang secretly gave birth to a child for her sponsor and was played by Cheng Long in the hospital on the set.

When the rumor that Liu Yifei was kept by Wu Yuan became popular on the Internet, many netizens believed it.

There is no way, it takes only one mouth to spread rumors, but it takes a lot of effort to refute them.

Even if Guangying Times refuted the rumors on the Internet as soon as possible, it is not the era of real-name registration on the Internet. Various social networking sites and forums do not use real-name registration at all, and even mobile phone numbers do not need to be filled in.

Wu Yuan also has no way to catch those who spread rumors and cause trouble on the Internet.

It can only be said that if a star does not have a few romantic scandals these days, it is embarrassing to say that he is popular.

Wu Yuan and Liu Xiaoli could only block these rumors on the mainland Internet and temporarily prevent Liu Yifei from knowing, fearing that it would affect her mentality.

Let her indulge in the good news of her global popularity for a while.

"Wait a little longer for the song "Good Time" with Timberlake, and release it in May."

"Now the momentum of "Call Me Maybe" has just begun, and it can at least maintain its popularity for two months. There is no rush to release a new song to compete with this song for popularity."

Holding Liu Yifei's thighs wrapped around his waist with both hands, Wu Yuan said happily: "It just so happens that "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" will be released worldwide in May."

"By then, with the release of your follow-up single, the movie and the song will work together, and you will really be able to gain a foothold in North America and become a big star."

"Yeah." Liu Yifei, with a smile in her eyes, lay on Wu Yuan's shoulder and nodded obediently: "I'll listen to you."

March 31st.

On the last day of March, Liu Yifei continued to promote "Call Me Maybe" in the wind and rain, with a full schedule.

Although the song has been released for a month, its popularity in North America has not diminished, and it has just reached its peak.

In the latest week's Billboard chart, "Call Me Maybe" has already topped the week's champion.

The global sales of this single have also reached nearly 8 million copies.

Although this sales volume is still much lower than the 20 million sales of Dunmei in 2011.

But considering the time and the gap in the popularity of iTunes mobile terminals after the emergence of the iPhone, it is already a great achievement to sell 8 million singles by streaming media in 2008.

At this time, I have to mention that North America's awareness of genuine consumption is really high, and copyright protection is also very good. Since the birth of the Internet, it has strictly cracked down on piracy and resolutely cracked down on any Internet piracy.

So that movies and music, which are digital products that are easy to share and spread through the Internet, can well obtain genuine income for creators.

In China today, it is absolutely unbelievable that you need to pay to listen to music. Is it that Qianqian Jingting is not good enough, or that Kugou and Kuwo Music are not good enough?

In the global market, except for China, the profit of "Call Me Maybe", which earned 16 million US dollars in sales, in China was almost zero.

This situation made Wu Yuan somewhat helpless.

Although he had never hoped to make money from online legitimate music in China, the fact that everyone from top to bottom, from the Copyright Bureau to the public, had no concept of paying for intellectual property rights still made him feel a little sad.

Can his light and shadow fast broadcast plan be successfully implemented and promote the formalization of Internet copyright awareness?

Now it seems a bit mysterious!

In his spare time preparing for the release of "Pirates of the Caribbean 3", Wu Yuan couldn't help but feel distressed.
