Su Yu was a bit helpless. What was wrong with Qian Jin? He was acting so nervous and secretive.
“Teacher Su Yu, you can sing English songs, right?” Qian Jin asked nervously after closing the door.
Although many of Su Yu’s previous songs had some English interjections, this time it was a purely English song. Could it be the same?
In fact, for Qian Jin, no matter what language it was, he was very worried and unsure.
You should know that Su Yu was the true dark horse for their variety show this time, and they didn't want Su Yu to fail in the first episode.
“My English is also pretty good, so don’t worry,” Su Yu replied with a smile.
“Then who are you planning to send out?” Qian Jin continued to press.
“For the first round, I’ll go myself!” Su Yu had already made a decision.
In Su Yu’s opinion, this Four Nations Concert was prepared by Qian Jin and Jinling TV to open up the overseas music market for him.
And the best way to increase overseas entertainment reputation points was, of course, for him to compose and sing himself.
Especially for the first live broadcast on the 30th, he had to make a splash and directly make overseas netizens and audiences remember him!
This way, when he didn’t perform on stage later, he wouldn’t have to worry about the slow growth of his reputation points.
“You’re going on the first round?! Okay, then I’m relieved! What else do you need me to do? Don’t be shy.”
When Qian Jin heard this, his whole person became energized.
What was there for him to worry about when it came to Wu Anjun!
What if it was an English song? He would still sweep through it.
“I’m still missing a band. Help me contact Qin Damo and the others,” Su Yu said after thinking about his request.
Actually, Su Yu had Qin Damo’s green bubble, but wouldn’t it be more formal for the production team to contact them?
Moreover, the production team would also have to pay them appearance fees, and Su Yu guessed they wouldn't accept money from him.
“No problem! They should be very excited to know they can work with Wu Anjun again!” Qian Jin nodded in agreement decisively.
Su Yu flew back to Yanjing that same day. After returning, he didn’t immediately start practicing anything, but instead supervised Tianxing Entertainment’s singers in learning three foreign languages.
He himself had directly purchased mastery of three languages, but the other singers did not.
And compared to English, Korean and japanese were what gave the singers headaches.
Fortunately, there were only three languages; if there were more, they would really collapse.
However, among all the singers, the one who surprised Su Yu the most was Zhang Xiaohan. Not only was her English excellent, but she also knew some japanese.
In Su Yu’s opinion, if a japanese song was drawn in the later rounds of the competition, Zhang Xiaohan could definitely go up.
Also, Chen Yixun’s English was very good, and he could be sent out to perform directly.
The only thing that wasn’t so good was Korean; they really didn’t understand it much.
However, with professional teachers guiding them, they picked it up very quickly.
After all, whether it’s japanese or Korean, they are actually intricately linked to Chinese.
Especially their writing, which evolved from Chinese characters!
...
During this period, chinese partners had successfully passed the review and was finally scheduled to be released on April 1st.
This release date made Huang Da'an and others, who had begun actively promoting it, very confused!
The April release window was even worse than March!
April is usually the time when major cinemas maintain their equipment because it is a true off-season for movies.
Huang Da'an and the others couldn't understand why Su Yu was so eager to release the movie. Wouldn't it be better to wait until the May Day holiday?
If they held out a bit longer and released it during the summer vacation, wouldn't that be even more enjoyable?
Moreover, the movie beautiful fate, which Su Yu had shrewdly discovered and served as producer for, had already broken 800 million in total box office on the 18th.
This gave Su Yu a huge boost in box office appeal. Even in the fiercely competitive summer season, major cinemas would not give less screen time to their chinese partners.
So, why bother!
Are you, old man, trying to create a “Fool’s Day”?
They couldn’t understand it, but they didn’t dare to say much.
Perhaps Su Yu had some plan they didn’t know about?
And with the box office miracle of beautiful fate as a foundation, they felt that the movie they filmed was not bad in terms of plot or quality.
The total box office should not be much weaker, right?
Su Yu also joined the crew for some recent offline promotional activities.
This made Huang Da'an and the others even more puzzled.
Boss, aren’t you actively preparing for the first round of the Four Nations Concert? Is it really appropriate to be out running promotions so frequently?
Haven’t you noticed that the reporters’ gazes at you are all wrong?
And when you are present, the reporters only ask questions about the Four Nations Concert, completely ignoring our new movie.
So, it’s enough for us three handsome guys to run the promotions.
You, the director and screenwriter, should go back into seclusion!
We are all still waiting for you to dominate and make the other Four Nations lose their helmets and armor.
When the time came to March 25th, the entire internet was flooded with the same news.
That was the legend of the condor heroes!
Because the TV series version of the legend of the condor heroes had its finale that night.
The final episode’s Mount Hua Sword Conference truly made the audience and netizens feel their blood boil.
Although many people had already read the original work and knew the ending.
But watching a well-produced TV series that closely followed the original work was clearly more immersive.
During the period when legend of the condor heroes was broadcast, whether it was Wang Meiling, Sun Daqiang, or Sun Xiaoxiao, they all became incredibly popular.
Even some veteran actors who played the “Five Greats,” “Seven Immortals of Quanzhen,” and “Seven Freaks of Jiangnan” also gained popularity.
Almost every memorable character that appeared in the drama gained a wave of fans.
The effect of boosting popularity was much, much more impactful than the previous little li flying dagger.
And another thing that drove people crazy was the viewership ratings of Yanjing TV and Jinling TV during the finale.
Yanjing TV’s average viewership rating reached 4.91! Jinling TV even broke 5, reaching 5.03!
A historical martial arts TV series actually managed to break 5 in viewership! This left the other satellite TVs dumbfounded.
And during the less than two months that the legend of the condor heroes was broadcast, the first and second places in the prime time viewership ratings from Monday to Thursday were consistently monopolized by Jinling TV and Yanjing TV.
This made the other satellite TVs who hadn’t managed to secure the broadcasting rights gnash their teeth in frustration.
After all, they had been suppressed for almost two months! And how many two-month periods are there in a year?
However, something that made them want to spit blood also happened: Yanjing TV actually bought the exclusive broadcasting rights for the second round at a high price!
Starting from the 26th, they actually began replaying it simultaneously without any breaks!
Yanjing TV, have you gone mad? You’re using such a great prime time slot to re-broadcast a drama that just had its finale?
Haven’t your TV station leaders been infuriated to the point of high blood pressure?
However, something exaggerated also happened.
The average viewership rating for the first and second episodes re-broadcast on Yanjing TV on the night of the 26th was still 2.51!
Although it didn’t surpass Fruit TV’s 2.66 for first place in viewership, it was still a solid second place.
What on earth was going on? Was Yanjing TV crazy, or were they crazy?
