Chapter 220 Peninsula: Battle for Cheng Cheng

Chapter 220 Peninsula: Battle for Cheng Cheng
In the next few days, Nilukzi found that her life had undergone earth-shaking changes.

This can probably be attributed to the troubles that come with becoming famous, right?

First of all, at school, the chances of being recognized when walking on the street increased. Although she was the campus belle of the Agricultural University before, the impact was far less than that. The boys passing by would just secretly glance at her.

But now, there are even students who come to the classroom where she teaches to watch.

The team pursuing her also grew rapidly. Because it was the capital, there were many wealthy and powerful second-generation men, and the way they pursued people was also very high-profile, with flowers, gifts, luxury cars, and so on.

However, these did not cause any trouble to Nilukzi, as they were all blocked by the people sent by Li Zhuo. In this regard, Li Zhuo protected her very well, or in other words, he protected every artist very well.

In a sense, Li Zhuo is the company's steward, inheriting Cheng Cheng's fearless style.

The second group of people are relatives and friends at home. After knowing that Nilukzi became a star, many of her elementary school classmates, junior high school and high school classmates, as well as her cousins, uncles, aunts, etc., all sent her messages excitedly.

Her kindergarten graduation photos, elementary school graduation photos, junior high school and high school graduation photos were also turned out.

Then netizens discovered that this girl’s beauty is not exaggerated, she has been beautiful since she was a child!
Also, she has received more announcements recently, and has also accepted an endorsement from a big-name cosmetics brand, with an annual endorsement fee of 500 million.

In fact, with her current status, she is far from being able to reach this price, at most 300 million, but the manufacturers are optimistic about her development because she is an artist of Shinhwa Company under Sung Cheng.

Nilukzi is still confused now, feeling that everything happened so fast, so dreamy, and so unreal.

But she also knew how all this came about.

She only did one thing right, which was to choose a good background and follow a good boss.

A backstage that no one in the circle dares to mess with, and a boss that everyone in the circle is terrified of.

If it weren't for Shinhwa Company and Sung Cheng backing her up, countless negative rumors would have been made up about her as soon as she became popular.

At the same time, the reputation of "Who's the Detective" has continued to grow, and many media have reported on it.

Among them, the Imperial Entertainment News reported:

"The premiere of "The Great Detective" received zero negative reviews, and the post-production was full of wild ideas"

[The role-playing mystery game show "Star Detective" directed and planned by Cheng Cheng has been gaining popularity for two days since its premiere.

The media, self-media, and netizens have all published their comments on the show, with the majority of the feedback focused on the novelty of the show format and the quality of the show.

In "The Great Detective", Shi Ning and Li Xiang teamed up for the first time to compete in IQ. Their wonderful performance of love and hate made countless fans laugh.

The image of a "funny guy" created by Zhang Zijie in the show was very eye-catching and left a deep impression on netizens, while Nilukzi's image of a "beautiful girl" and Wenying's contrasting image both had distinct personalities. The five star players created constant chemical reactions when they collided with each other.

After the first two episodes were broadcast, netizens unanimously praised Cheng Cheng for his unique vision in selecting star players and his ability to meet market demand.

Well-known self-media person Nalan Huaian commented:
“For a long time, domestic variety shows could not get rid of the label of “plagiarism” and “borrowing”, and they would copy whatever variety show was popular in which country.

Nowadays, more and more domestic variety shows are taking the path of originality, and even the creativity of the programs has gone beyond the stereotype of traditional variety show game competitions, combining the two popular brain-burning elements of "escape room + murder game" to reach a new height of IQ testing in current variety shows."

In addition, "The Great Detective" focuses on quality creation, and more than 200 different props are carefully prepared for each shooting, and the details are meticulously polished. From the layout of the player's room (the crime scene) to the scraps of clothing, there are special clues associated with them, and the rigor is amazing.

In addition to the highlights in the program setting and guest selection, the performances of the post-production group and the flower group were also extraordinary.

The program does not use the dark and scary visuals of conventional reasoning and detective programs. The colors of the program are bright and cheerful throughout. From time to time, there are also creative groups in the later stage who come out to "play pranks" and make fun of the star players' reasoning logic.

While solving the case based on the reasoning, netizens also have to make time to be amused. The combination of brain-burning reasoning and funny variety shows has won the hearts of netizens. ]
On Douban, "Who's the Detective" has also been rated, and it immediately reached a score of 9.4. Only 0.3% of the people gave it one star, while 73.6% gave it five stars.

Now, Xiangjiang TV has completely lost its temper!

I didn’t run into “King of Masked Singer”, but I ran into “Who’s the Detective”. What a joke!
11 month 1 day.

"Those Years" has been online for a whole month, and the domestic box office has exceeded 36 billion yuan, the overseas box office is 10.58 billion, and the global total box office is 46.58 billion. Cheng Cheng has made a lot of money.

The cost of making "Those Years" was not high, only 46.58 million, plus the publicity and promotion costs, as well as other miscellaneous costs, a total of 20 million. Of the billion box office, Cheng Cheng got about % of the share.

In other words, Cheng Cheng made 9 million this time.

And this is not the final box office. When "Those Years" is released, Cheng Cheng should be able to get around 10 billion yuan.

The novel "Those Years" has now sold 200 million copies, and the printing factory is working overtime every day to print "Those Years".

On the day when the overseas box office of "Those Years" officially broke 10 billion, CCTV News conducted another exclusive interview with Cheng Cheng and proposed to shoot a documentary for Cheng Cheng. This is the treatment only a true master can have.

People like Gong Guangming, Lu Zhuofeng and Tang Ping all have several documentaries to their credit.

The same was true of Zhang Yimou in his previous life, with films such as "Zhang Yimou and His "Shadow", "Zhang Yimou and His Flowers of War", and "Zhang Yimou's 2008".

Cheng Cheng did not refuse, but there must be a theme. He could make a documentary the next time he makes a movie or a TV series. The name could be "Cheng Cheng and His Life", "Cheng Cheng and His Three-Body Problem", or "Cheng Cheng and His Abnormal Mental Diary".

Peninsula, the music promotion stage has entered the last two months.

SK's mini album "SQUARE UP" is finally released.

Once released, it immediately caused a sensation on the peninsula!

On the evening of the 1st, within two hours of the release of "SQUARE UP", SK successfully topped the real-time charts of seven music websites including MelOn, Genie, Mnet, NAVER Music, Soribada, Olleh Music and Bugs.

By the morning of the 2nd, SK further conquered Monkey3 and swept the top of the iTunes album charts in 41 countries including Guinea, Chile, Greece, Yingdao, Neon, Baodao, Tailand, and Eros.

The MV's views exceeded 6 million within 13 hours of its release, and exceeded million within hours, setting a record for the fastest surge in views for a girl group's MV.

Moreover, the name of the album means "Let's fight", which conveys the implication of accepting challenges with dignity. It is as if people can see a pink monster composed of four girls sweeping the KPOP landscape around the world.

At the same time, SK also performed well in the three music charts, music chart, team chart and individual chart.

The title song "DDU-DU DDU-DU" from "SQUARE UP" ranked third on the music chart; SK ranked fifth on the team chart; Kang Nam ranked fourth on the individual chart, Lee So-young ranked ninth on the individual chart, Park Mi-hye ranked fifteenth on the individual chart, and Lin Xier barely squeezed into the twenty-third on the individual chart.

In the overall ranking of this music promotion stage, SK has ranked third.

The first is the still active legendary second-generation group AHJ, and the second is AA, which is also a fifth-generation group.

-

Band 1 has a total of six music shows, namely "The Show" on Tuesday, "Champion Show" on Wednesday, "M! Countdown" on Mnet TV on Thursday, "Music Bank" on KBS on Friday, "Music Center" on MBC on Saturday, and "Inkigayo" on SBS on Sunday.

Among them, the most valuable ones are: KBS's "Music Bank", MBC's "Music Core", and SBS's "Inkigayo".

KBS, MBC and SBS are known as the three major TV stations in the peninsula. The No. 1 of their music shows is also known as the No. 1 of the Three Major Stations, and has the highest gold content.

Those who can participate in music promotion programs are all artists who have just released new songs or new albums. Because they are new songs, everyone is willing to listen to them, so their popularity is naturally high.

The SK group has already performed on three music stages in a row, namely "The Show" on Tuesday, "Champion Show" on Wednesday, and "M! Countdown" on Thursday. Today, they are on the most important "Music Bank".

When the host called their names, they cheered each other on and then walked onto the stage.

On the stage, four girls stood still.

Everyone was wearing sexy and eye-catching clothes, and the stage lights were dim and ambiguous, wrapping them up.

Under the light, they looked like dangerous and charming monsters.

Jiang Nan's look today is an orange high ponytail, with a pair of brown sunglasses on her head and a ring-shaped earring on her crystal earlobe, which is quite eye-catching.

She wore a short black tube top that slanted down from one shoulder, revealing her slender swan neck and delicate collarbone. Paired with a high ponytail, she looked handsome and cool.

She was wearing shorts of the same color, with two beautiful legs sticking out from them, as if they were one meter long, smooth and straight, with slightly pink knees, food grade, and no visible pigmentation.

Her figure is just right. Her 53-kg body looks neither too plump nor too skinny. She is like a ripe peach, plump and juicy, tempting you to take a bite.

Li Xiaoying was on Jiang Nan's right hand side, with long curly hair that fell past her shoulders, like seaweed, fluffy and soft.

Park Mi-hui looks like a real queen. The two straps are very thin and hang on the collarbone. The straps are wrinkled at the chest, like a bunch of blooming roses.

Lin Xier had a pearl necklace hanging around her neck, a yellow hairpin behind her ear, and air bangs hanging in front of her forehead, giving her a very Korean style.

The four of them stood on the stage, and their beauty alone had already captured the hearts of the audience.

The audience at the scene shouted their names like crazy:
"Yuzuha! I love you!"

"Dancing machine! Human Barbie! Fairy of proportions! Luxury body! Natural idol! Goddess Yuzuha!"

"Li Xiaoying is the most powerful one!"

“Beauty, beauty, beauty, beauty, beauty, beauty, beauty, beauty, beauty, beauty, beauty, beauty, beauty, beauty, beauty, beauty, beauty, beauty, beauty!”

“Nannannannannannannannannannannannannan!”

"Xibao, I love you!"

The music started amid the shouts of the audience.

The prelude is very magical "dududududududu~"

As their bodies swayed, the four girls shouted out their group name together:

"Sparkling Kings!"

Then, Jiang Nan crossed his arms across his waist, glanced down at the camera, and began to move. The four girls dispersed:

"(kind face, disdainful attitude)
volume (Twice the volume hidden in the slender body)
(Keep moving forward without any hesitation)
Sparkling Kings Savage (Sparkling Kings is our beautiful and unrestrained)"

Jiang Nan swayed his body. His movements were not large, but simple, decisive, and full of power. His soft and graceful body seemed to be burning like a flame, and every strand of hair was glowing.

Combined with the stage, makeup and choreography, the whole performance was amazing, with both the songs and the dances full of memorable moments.

The screams from the audience grew louder and louder.

Park Mi-hye: "run it
(Running in all directions)

I bought it
(I'll pay for your wish list)


(I'm half-hearted about you)
bad girl
(I'm a bad girl who does whatever I want)"

Jiang Nan and the other two kept changing their formations, interweaving their dance moves, sometimes showing a sense of strength, sometimes showing a soft waist, and sometimes showing a sexy and heart-stirring feeling. The voices of the four of them are very distinctive.

Jiang Nan's dance moves are unique, with precise and unexaggerated strength, and his figure and appearance are both outstanding.

Park Mi-hye has a very seductive voice and great singing skills.

Lin Xier’s expression management is top-notch, both cool and seductive.

Li Xiaoying has a thin figure and delicate features, and is a hexagonal warrior.

"like fire,

Hot as fire, hot as fire,

Hit you with that ddu-du ddu-du du. "

The performance lasted more than three minutes. The four girls performed very hard and each of them danced to their best.

Finally, the music slowed down and the performance came to an end.

The four girls looked sideways at the audience, their bodies rising and falling, breathing slightly, and struck an ending pose.

At this moment, the whole audience cheered to the utmost!

-

After stepping off the stage and out of the spotlight, Li Xiaoying breathed a sigh of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her shoulders:

"Phew~ My heart nearly jumped out of my throat when I turned around just now. I almost made a mistake. I was so scared!"

Lin Xier said: "What are you talking about? I'm almost scared to death by you!"

Li Xiaoying opened her cherry lips and said, "Ah? Is it that obvious?"

Jiang Nan consoled her, "It's okay, unnie, it was just a little slow, but you handled it very, very well, maybe it will become a classic~"

Park Mi-hye also said:
"Yeah, as long as there are no stage accidents, it's fine. We worked very hard this time and the stage was wonderful. After this Music Bank performance, we will definitely be able to get one step closer to the top three charts!"

Backstage, their respective assistants immediately brought them water and towels.

Jiang Nan wiped the sweat from his neck and arms while accepting the praise from his agent.

"Yuye, your performance was so great. I love you so much even though I'm watching from below!!! You are a natural idol!"

Li Xiaoying hugged Jiang Nan with a smile and said:
"Of course, our youngest member is the best. It's Lin Yi Oppa's song, and it immediately brought us to the top three! Our Yuye is the main contributor~"

"Yeah!"

Park Mi-hye and Lin Xier also praised Jiang Nan in various ways, praising her to the highest level and calling her the best teammate in the world.

Jiang Nan was amused and pretended to push them away with disgust: "Hey, you haven't wiped your sweat off yet, and you rubbed it all over me!"

Li Xiaoying opened her eyes wide and pretended to be dissatisfied: "Oh, this is the sweat of beautiful girls. How many people want to get it but can't. How dare you look down on us? Sisters, punish her!"

Immediately, Park Mi-hye and Lin Xier also rushed over, and Jiang Nan quickly begged for mercy:

"Oh, I was wrong, I was wrong~ Let me go~"

At this moment, another girl group also came on stage, and the screams and cheers from the audience were several times louder than when SK came on stage.

Now on stage is the first girl group of the fifth generation, AA, Ace Aspiration, and Peak Dream!
They are a girl singing group launched by JPE, consisting of five members.

The group name "Ace Aspiration" expresses the desire to become a legendary girl group, and in fact, this girl group really lives up to their name.

AA debuted on July 18, 7. On the first day of their debut, they released the first title song "Aspiration" from their first mini album "Ace Aspiration". As soon as it was released, it set the highest record of a girl group's debut song entering the Melon real-time chart in the past three years.

On August 8, the physical album was officially released, with first-week sales of 8 copies, breaking the record for the highest first-week sales of a girl group's debut album.

On August 8, "Attention" became the only K-POP idol debut song in the past five years to occupy the first place on the Melon, Genie, Bugs, and Flo real-time charts.

On August 8, the group became the first K-POP girl group to top the Spotify Top Artist chart in the Peninsula region.

After just over a year of debut, they have already surpassed girl groups of the same generation.

Today, AA has been recognized as the top girl group of the fifth generation for four years.

At the same time, AA also set a new record - since 2011, AA is the only girl group after Orange Pink (the second-generation girl group) to win the "Artist of the Year" award at the MAMA Awards.

Whether in terms of performance or strength, AA is the strongest among the five generations!

In particular, its five members are all crazy dedicated to their work. As long as they are given the right songs and the right venues, they will shine. Moreover, their overseas market is quite solid. They are a super perfect group, and each member ranks in the top fifteen on the personal list.

Among them, Kim Yoon-eun, the face of the group, topped the personal list, having "the most beautiful shoulders in Kpop", "the highest skull in Kpop", "the most perfect head-to-body ratio in Kpop", and "the most beautiful waistline in Kpop"!
When AA was performing, the four members of SK fell silent and watched their performance quietly.

Even after their performance ended, Jiang Nan and the other three had not yet recovered from their shock.

Li Xiaoying sighed:
"They are so strong. Every time I see them, I can't help but sigh with emotion."

Lin Xier: "They are really strong. Both their stage performance and team chemistry are amazing."

Jiang Nan stopped making trouble with his teammates.

AA's strength is despairing, and AA's strength lies not only in her strength, but also in her strong background and resources.

When promoting their debut, they were called the "160 billion girl group" because it was said that their debut cost the company billion, and JPE also said that it would "not interfere with any content creation." This treatment is unique in KPOP, and they were aiming to be the top girl group of the fifth generation when they debuted.

It is completely different from Jiang Nan's group, which is not loved by his grandmother and uncle, and whose parent company is on the decline. Their development is also very different.

After AA finished his performance, he walked backstage and bumped into SK.

To be honest, before this, AA didn't take SK seriously at all. They thought it was just a very obscure group, just like the countless obscure groups that were swept into the garbage dump by their team like fallen leaves in the autumn wind. They were not worth paying any attention to.

Their sights have already been set on the third and fourth generation groups, as well as overseas markets.

It was only last year that AA paid more attention to SK.

This year, after releasing the mini album "SQUARE UP", AA did not feel threatened.

Let me put it this way, "Queencard" is very popular, but AA has four or five songs like it; "Sorry, Sorry" is of very high quality, but it is a song of the same quality, but AA has one every year.

SK's mini album "SQUARE UP" is also very strong, but AA's upcoming new album is not much inferior.

The five girls from AA walked past SK laughing and joking, without even saying a word of greeting or even a greeting.

Li Xiaoying, who had already raised her hand to greet him, muttered in dissatisfaction: "How rude! Is this how you treat your seniors?"

Yes.

Although it's embarrassing to admit it, SK did debut a year earlier than AA.

Moreover, what AA did was indeed inappropriate. As we all know, the class system in the entertainment industry on the Peninsula is strict. Although you don't have to bow 90 degrees, you still have to say hello. Many older people who debuted early often complain publicly on variety shows that some of their juniors are impolite and don't even say hello, and the public also condemns them.

Perhaps having heard Li Xiaoying's complaint, AA captain Huang Caiying stopped, and her four teammates also stopped.

Huang Caiying slowly turned around and walked in front of SK.

Li Xiaoying was shocked. She was as cowardly as she was just now.

Jiang Nan held her hand and took a step forward.

The other four members of AA stood behind Huang Caiying and moved forward and backward with her. For a moment, the nine girls faced each other and the atmosphere was somewhat tense.

Huang Caiying said: "If you want to act like a senior, then please surpass us in performance first. In KPOP, only those who have enough strength are qualified to speak. Otherwise, if you have no achievements, but only use the time of debut to make a fuss, don't you think it's ridiculous?"

Li Xiaoying's face turned red immediately.

As the captain, Park Mi-hui was also ashamed.

Huang Caiying looked at Jiang Nan again, the most popular member of SK, who was one place higher than her in the individual rankings, and said:

"I noticed that since last year there has been a guy named Lin Yi writing songs for you guys, right? He is not comparable to those old-fashioned composers in SL. Why don't you introduce him to our group? With your strength, using his songs would really be an insult to his songs."

This is tantamount to opening the camera wide open.

Lin Xier's anger rose in her heart, and she couldn't help but retort: ​​"Your words are really refreshing, so why not lend me your composer?"

The face of the AA group and the top of the personal list, Jin Yunen sneered and said, "I'll give it to you. Can you sing well?"

Lin Xier: “If I give you Lin Yi Oppa’s song, can you sing it well? You are the ones who are truly insulting his song!”

Jin Yun-eun: "Do you think we are you?"

Lin Xier: "What's wrong with us? We are already third in the overall ranking and will soon surpass you!"

Kim Yun-eun: "Immediately? You've been debuting for 5 years, and we've been debuting for 4. Don't you feel ashamed just to use the word surpass? And if you could surpass, what would you have done already?"

Lin Xier: “You!”

Jin Yun Eun: "What? You can't say it anymore? You are such a loser."

Jiang Nan stepped forward and said, "You don't have to worry about it. Lin Yi will not write songs for anyone else except for us. And we will prove it. This time, we will definitely defeat you and become the top female group of the fifth generation."

Li Xiaoying said: "That's right, Lin Yi is our Youye's good friend, you can't take him away!"

Huang Caiying smiled and said, "Okay, KPOP doesn't need a composer like him, but we will show him what the best girl group of the fifth generation is!"

After saying that, Huang Caiying and four others left in a mighty manner.

Li Xiaoying and the other two surrounded Jiang Nan and watched them leave, feeling very unhappy:

Ahhhh, they are too crazy. I really want to educate them as a senior!
