◎Lu Group, headquarters.

Dong Lu sat in front of the desk, his whole body was filled with a cold breath, his expression was expressionless◎

Lu Group, headquarters.

Dong Lu sat in front of the desk, his whole body was filled with a cold breath, and his expression was extremely gloomy.

The atmosphere in the entire office was stagnant, and everyone dared not speak out.

"Lu Yanchen, this is what you did." Dong Lu sneered and threw the document on the table. Just because the person in front of him is his own son, he didn't show mercy to him at all.

In fact, he was very optimistic about his son from the beginning. He has been excellent since he was a child, and he has nothing to worry about.

So later, even if the other party proposed to go to the entertainment circle for two years, he acquiesced.

But what he didn't expect was that in recent years, Lu Yanchen's performance disappointed him more and more.

First, he wanted to ban a starlet, but in the end not only failed to ban him, but also included himself in it.

Later, he fell in love with a small female celebrity, and wanted to be with her. For this reason, the relationship with the family was very tense.

Now, such an important project as "Best Music Producer" was handed over to him, but what happened?

Not only did the project fail to achieve the expected results, it even faced a loss of money!

Thinking that the failure of this project would disrupt their next plans, Director Lu felt extremely depressed.

"I have emphasized with you countless times that this project is one of the most important projects of the group. And you actually made such a big mistake."

Lu Dong stared at Lu Yanchen coldly.

"I made a mistake in the audition score, and directly let a group of F-level contestants create an explosive song. I asked you to suppress the popularity of the other party. As a result, the popularity of the song has not decreased but increased, and even the movie has become popular."

However, under his gaze, Lu Yanchen sneered.

The father and son were not very close in the first place, and after Yao Xinxin's incident, the relationship between the two parties dropped to freezing point.

Lu Yanchen also didn't mean to swallow his anger at all: "Can I blame this? Director Lu, you personally check the selection criteria for variety shows. Since you plan to promote those young fresh meats who have nothing but good looks, there will definitely be truly outstanding talents who will be eliminated Out."

Director Lu's voice was completely cold: "So, this is my responsibility? I entrust you with this project because I trust you enough."

Seeing that the father and son were at war with each other, and the atmosphere was almost stagnant, a manager standing next to him hurried forward to smooth things over.

"Director Lu, Young Master Lu, let's calm down first... Our top priority is to find a way first."

He paused, and then added: "The movie "Sigh of a Floating Life" will be released in 20 days. As long as we survive these 20 days, we should be able to suppress the heat of this matter."

Hearing what he said, Director Lu managed to suppress the irritability in his heart: "Okay, then you can help Lu Yanchen and contact the major theaters. No matter whether it is coercion or temptation, in short, the screening rate of "A Sigh of a Floating Life" must not increase. "

"In addition, find a few composers who can write songs. No matter how high the price is, you must create an excellent song. On the next episode of "Best Music Producer", I want to hear this song Song."

The best way to depress an event is to throw a new one.

With the financial resources of the Lu Corporation, it is not difficult to create a new song and make it popular on the Internet.

As long as you distract everyone with other songs, you can at least reduce the risk to a certain extent anyway.

The manager nodded: "Understood, I will arrange it now."

Dong Lu turned his head to look at Lu Yanchen, his tone was cold: "What about you?"

Lu Yanchen clenched his hands slightly, and finally loosened them slowly, trying to suppress the emotions in his heart: "Okay, I see."

Even if the other party doesn't order, he will try his best to suppress Yao Bianliang's movie schedule.

Not only because of the interests of the group, but also because he hated Yao Bianliang to the extreme.

If it wasn't for this woman, he wouldn't have quit the entertainment industry in that way, and he wouldn't have affected the company group because of it, so that even now, many people have criticized him as his successor.

But this time, Yao Bianliang deliberately recruited F-level players, putting the project he was in charge of in the most dangerous situation!

Lu Yanchen's eyes flashed cold.

When he finds an opportunity, he will definitely make Yao Bianliang pay the price.

Looking at his son's appearance, Lu Dong couldn't help frowning slightly.

He knew that Lu Yanchen had always had the character of being one-sided and vengeful.

He didn't mind that Lu Yanchen used his power to suppress and block those small artists, it didn't matter.

As the heir of the group, he already had such a privilege.

But the premise of making these actions is that this will not affect the interests of the group.

If it wasn't because Lu Yanchen acted impulsively at the beginning, and formed a relationship with Yao Bianliang, otherwise, why would they be in such a predicament now?

"Okay, you guys go down first—Lu Yanchen, there is no room for mistakes in this matter." Director Lu said.

Lu Yanchen glanced at him and walked away.

Director Lu leaned on the office chair and sighed slowly.

Fortunately, things are not too bad now. And in addition to the variety show "Best Music Producer", they also held the fourth season of "Good Drama PK Competition".

This variety show is personally checked by him. Judging from the current situation, the benefits are very good.

"At first, I was thinking that maybe I could invite Yao Bianliang to return to the fourth season of the PK competition, so as to stir up a wave of enthusiasm..." Lu Dong tapped his finger on the table and sighed, "Now it seems that it is not possible."

With the Liangzi formed by their Lu Group and Yao Bianliang, there is no possibility of relaxation.

After thinking for a while, Mr. Lu turned his head and looked at the assistant beside him: "Go and make arrangements to add a few profitable points in "Good Drama PK Competition"."

In order to lower the screening rate of "Floating Life", they also gave various theaters a lot of benefits.

You have to get a wave of blood back.

…

In the past few days, the small cinema opened by Wang Xiaosi ushered in a harvest season.

Even though "A Floating Sigh" was full, the people in charge of those big theaters seemed to have lost their minds. They coincided with each other, and none of them intended to increase the screening rate.

Therefore, Wang Xiaosi simply asked the cinema to arrange the shows of "A Floating Life" 24 hours a day, and the rate reached an astonishing 85%.

There are many small theaters that operate in the same way as her.

Those audiences couldn't get tickets for the shows in the big theaters, so in desperation, they could only choose these small theaters.

Some people even drove for an hour or two and made a special trip to their theater just to watch a movie.

"Boss, we've really earned blood these few days."

The fat man looked at the turnover on the computer and smiled.

Although the location of their small theater is good, but because there are big theaters around, the competition is too strong, so the income is not particularly high.

That is to say, the level of ordinary people who can barely make a little money.

But since "Sigh of a Floating Life" became popular, Wang Xiaosi immediately decided to increase the film scheduling rate, which caused their turnover to skyrocket.

It is not the peak season now, but the flow of water on this day is much higher than in the peak season.

Wang Xiaosi was also very proud, but still said a few words modestly: "I just want to support the idol."

As for making money?

Oh, that's just by the way.

She waved her hand: "These days our theater is highly profitable, and everyone's bonus is doubled—and besides, please have hot pot together tonight."

"The boss is wise!"

Everyone's eyes lit up, and there was a burst of cheers and whistles in the room.

"By the way, Boss, Fu Shengtan seems to be on the trending search again?" An employee let out a small sigh, looking at the Weibo interface on the phone screen.

"All the creators of the Divine Comedy "Floating Life Sigh" participated in the "Best Music Producer" variety show, but they were eliminated in the audition, and all of them only got F grade?"

After the employee finished reading the title, he was shocked.

Indeed, before the release of "A Sigh of a Floating Life", there had been gossip about this matter.

But I don't know what the reason is, and in the end, the matter quickly disappeared. It was as if the news appeared suddenly, then disappeared suddenly, and did not spread.

Therefore, some people even suspected that this was just a rumor.

But now, looking at the shining No. 1 hot search, Wang Xiaosi understands that this matter is likely to be confirmed.

[Fuck, such an awesome music producer, they were all eliminated as F grades? ? 】

[Is it blind or deaf, I suspect they are using their feet to choose. 】

[If it's just one person, it's okay... But everyone, this is all members! There are five people in total, all of them are F rank! 】

[Throw a handful of rice to my chicken and let it peck, the probability of picking good rice is higher than this. How did "Best Music Producer" accurately avoid all talents? 】

[Maybe it's because the looks of these players are not as good as those giegies? (The dog's head saves his life)]

[Laughing to death, "select outstanding talents and return to the essence of music", this is the best joke I've heard this year. 】

…

The trending search was very sudden. By the time Yao Bianliang noticed this, more than three hours had passed.

Looking at the comments of netizens, she felt like she was riding a roller coaster, with ups and downs.

"I thought this matter would have been suppressed by Lu's Group long ago." Yao Bianliang felt a little uneasy in his heart.

Things were developing in a direction she could not have expected.

What's more ridiculous is that just a few hours before this hot search entry was topped, some entertainment media and marketing accounts posted related articles, praising the new work of "Best Music Producer" as very good, and it can be called "Divine Comedy". ".

#like water moonlight too brainwashed#

This entry was directly bought into the hot search, and when I clicked on it, it was basically all comments from the navy.

Many netizens couldn't control their desire to ridicule when they saw this scene.

[I laughed, what are the program crew doing? Is this so-called "Divine Comedy" on the same level as "Sigh of a Floating Life"? 】

【Seeing Shuijun's embarrassing bragging, I feel so embarrassed. The song is really good, but it's completely incomparable to Fushengtan. 】

[No comparison, no harm. "Floating Life Sigh" not only wins in the melody, but also in the emotion contained in the song! The perfect fusion of lyrics, tunes, movie stories, and characters can create such an excellent work. How can Moonlight Like Water compare with others? 】

[I thought the program team would give some explanation, but it turns out, that's it? 】

[Eliminate Chen Shen's outstanding players as F-level, but instead regard this kind of song without any artistic quality as Gui Gao? 】

[I must admit that the market has sunk heavily in recent years, but this does not mean that the public has lost its judgment. We can hear which songs are of good quality and which are of poor quality. 】

It has to be said that the Lu Group's move is actually quite correct.

The quality of the song "Moonlight Like Water" is not bad. They can use marketing methods to successfully make this song popular and lower the popularity of "Floating Sigh".

As long as the money is in place, spend more money to sell advertisements, and even make the song the first place in the background music of short videos, theoretically there is no difficulty.

However, the inside information about "Floating Life Sigh" soon broke out!

Before the variety show group had time to struggle, the wind of public opinion completely turned to the other side.

"No way..." Yao Bianliang's heart sank more and more.

Lu Group, you are the number one wealthy family in this novel world, you have to hold on anyway.

The popularity of related topics is getting higher and higher, soaring directly to the front row of hot searches.

While the public ridiculed variety shows, they also paid attention to other issues.

[Speaking of which, do you all realize that something is wrong—it stands to reason that Fu Shengtan is so popular, the movie theater should have increased the screening rate long ago, why is it still standing still? 】

[I really want to scold people, those theater managers seem to be out of their minds, I can't even buy tickets now. 】

【But I heard that it's because Yao Bianliang offended someone. 】

【Good guy, I've heard this rumor too. 】

[If it's because you offended someone, then everything makes sense! No wonder the Lu Corporation was so anxious, it turned out they couldn't sit still. 】

More and more speculation surfaced.

The originally confusing situation suddenly became clear.

Why Yao Bianliang's movie quality is obviously very good, but he can only get a 3% screening rate?

Why is it that "Sigh of a Floating Life" can bring more income to theaters, but the major theaters seem to be struggling with money and remain unmoved?

Why is it that the movie theaters are full, and the audience's calls for increasing the film screening rate are getting louder and louder, but the major theaters still ignore it?

After seeing the inside story of "Best Music Producer" being exposed, everything seems to have the answer.

[I seem to understand, because Yao Bianliang recruited those eliminated F-level contestants, so the Lu family behind the variety show will take action to suppress it, right? 】

[Fuck, that's really the case! If a song and dance movie produced by a group of F-level contestants becomes popular, then their program group will become a joke. 】

[Laughing, this variety show has become a joke. 】

[The program team has a brain hole? There is a problem with my own scoring standards, there are a lot of shady people, I don’t want to stand at attention and apologize, but think about suppressing others? 】

[To be honest, this kind of variety show has long been rotten, there is nothing clean from top to bottom. 】

[I heard that Yao Bianliang offended the heir of the Lu Group before, I don't know if it was because of this reason. 】

[I love my sister Liang. The Lu Group is so majestic, is it true that those who follow me will prosper, and those who oppose me will perish? 】

Yao Bianliang: "..."

Yao Bianliang just watched helplessly, the topic shifted all the way, and finally shifted the focus directly to the Lu Group.

Netizens are so perceptive. As soon as the incident broke out, some people immediately noticed something was wrong.

Some conjectures are well-founded, logically clear, and almost infinitely close to the truth.

Now, the major movie theaters and variety show groups are probably not the ones facing the pressure of public opinion - countless spearheads will be aimed at the Lu Group.

Yao Bianliang originally thought that the Lu Group could resist the pressure and continue to squeeze her film.

But now it seems that the Lu Group has stepped from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, and has been directly pushed to the forefront.

Can they… hold on?

The system was silent: "It doesn't look like it can hold up, host."

Yao Bianliang: "..."

———

Ten o'clock at night.

The moon is hidden behind the clouds, and the city is shrouded in fog, giving people a stuffy feeling.

Manager Cao sat at his desk and began to think about life for the nth time.

Just like he didn't understand why Yao Bianliang deliberately lowered the screening rate at the beginning, now, he also doesn't understand why public opinion is like a wild horse that has run away and never returned.

Things have come to this point, which has exceeded everyone's expectations.

Even if it is a behemoth like the Lu Group, it may be difficult to end it properly.

He even began to think, could it be that Yao Bianliang proposed to reduce the screening rate because he had expected today?

"Maybe it's not just a coincidence..." Manager Cao thought deeply.

As the sole investor of this movie, Yao Bianliang invested a huge amount of money.

Everyone may hope that the box office of this movie is not high, but Yao Bianliang is the only one who cannot.

Under such circumstances, why did the other party take the initiative to lower the film scheduling rate?

This doesn't make sense in theory.

Manager Cao doesn't believe Yao Bianliang's nonsense about "thinking about the theaters and not wanting them to lose money".

If people don't kill heaven and earth for themselves, who would think that they are not popular enough?

Therefore, Yao Bianliang's request must have some deep meaning.

Manager Cao didn't want to understand it at first, but now, as the matter develops step by step, the truth that was originally confusing has gradually become clear——

I'm afraid Yao Bianliang has long realized that the Lu Group will take action to suppress it!

She deliberately recruited the F-level contestants of "Best Music Producer", and also deliberately let Ji Linyin be the lead singer. All these things can't be a coincidence.

From the very beginning, she should have intended to expose the true face of this variety show.

If that's the case, it all makes sense.

Yao Bianliang had long expected that the theme song of "Sigh of a Floating Life" would become popular.

Relying on the Divine Comedy to drive the box office is too common for singing and dancing movies, so she doesn't worry about the movie's box office at all.

In this case, there should be two reasons for lowering the film discharge rate—

First, weaken the existence of movies and highlight the utility of "Divine Comedy".

If the movie and the theme song became popular together, then the status of this song would not be as prominent as it is now.

And if the Divine Comedy becomes popular with the movie, it will undoubtedly highlight the value of the Divine Comedy, and the impact on variety shows will be more precise.

second. Increase the controversy and topic of this incident.

If the film's screening rate was very good from the beginning, although it can also have an impact on the public opinion of variety shows, it will definitely not have such a high degree of topicality as it is now.

Only by letting the film's screening rate be very low at the beginning, and being unable to stand out under the pressure of the Lu Group, can the controversy and public opinion be better aroused, and the Lu Group can be completely pushed to the forefront!

Thinking of this, Manager Cao's thoughts surged, and he felt an inexplicable awe and palpitation towards Yao Bianliang.

This is too cruel!

By doing this, she clearly wanted to make "Best Music Producer" completely lose its money.

But...why did she design such a thing?

Manager Cao couldn't help thinking of a rumor he had heard that Lu Yanchen of the Lu Group once banned Yao Bianliang, and had a deep quarrel with her.

"Could it be... because of this reason?"

The more he thought about it, Manager Cao couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.

If it were any other entertainer who offended the heir to a powerful and powerful family, he would have been completely cold for a long time.

But looking at Yao Bianliang, not only became more and more popular, but also dug such a big hole for the opponent in turn!

With his own strength, he challenged the top giants in the country, and finally won a phased victory...

Manager Cao didn't know whether the completely enraged Lu Group would let Yao Bianliang go easily. But no matter what, as an entertainer with no background, Yao Bianliang's ability to achieve this step can already be recorded in the annals of history.

"Manager Cao, what are you thinking about? You've been in a daze for a long time." Manager Huang next to him glanced at him, turning the pen in his hand depressed.

Only then did Manager Cao slowly come back to his senses.

"It's nothing," he said, "I just suddenly remembered something... By the way, what's the current public opinion situation?"

"What else can I do? The pressure of public opinion is too great, and I can't control it at all," Manager Huang said with a bitter face. "I don't know, when will our day be the head."

The people put pressure on public opinion, and the Lu Group used power to overwhelm people. The two sides played crazy games, and they, theater managers, had absolutely nothing to do.

They've been working overtime for a full week so far.

This is really a fight between gods and mortals.

Manager Cao sighed: "If the people above don't let go, I can't help it."

He paused and said: "Wait, look at the form, I guess it should be soon."

As soon as the voice fell, the office landline rang for a while.

After seeing the name displayed on it clearly, Manager Cao's eyes lit up slightly.

It's the boss's call.

He quickly picked up the receiver, and the person opposite seemed to say something, and Manager Cao sat up straight again.

"You mean, the Lu Group is finally going to compromise?"

Manager Huang also stood up immediately after hearing the words: "What's the situation, is it true or not?"

More than ten days! They endured the pressure and persisted for more than ten days!

The department receives countless complaint calls every day, and the e-mail box is directly filled.

In the anger of netizens, he, the decision maker, was scolded every day, almost to the point where his parents could not be saved.

Fortunately, now it's finally time for the clouds to see the moon.

The Lu Group's attitude has finally softened, which means that they no longer have to be restrained by the other party's lust.

Manager Cao nodded to Manager Huang, saying that this source of information is very reliable.

The boss on the other end of the phone ordered something, he restrained his mind, tried to suppress the curvature of the corner of his mouth and said: "Okay... I understand, let's quickly adjust the film arrangement."

He had to increase the screening rate of "A Floating Life" to 40%—no, directly to 50%!
