Chapter 64 The losing company is dissolved on the spot.
Aunt Chen is the organizer of the evening square dancing at Hucheng Square.
Every day at six o'clock sharp, she would push her speaker here.
The square is far from residential areas, so they rarely receive complaints about dancing there.
Aunt Chen recently heard the song "Little Apple" online and thought it was quite nice, so she downloaded it to her speakers and plans to dance to it tonight.
As more and more people gathered around, Aunt Chen turned on the stereo and started dancing.
Upon hearing that it was a new song, the elderly women who came to the square to dance found it quite refreshing.
But after dancing to the song twice, they didn't learn much of the dance, though they could hum along to the song.
As the lyrics "You are my little apple, I can never love you enough" came out, more and more people gathered in the square to dance.
As the song ended, a group of people surrounded Aunt Chen, asking her the song's name.
"Little Apple" unexpectedly spread in this form.
Someone posted a video of Aunt Chen dancing in the square on Kuaishou and Douyin as a way to share her life, and surprisingly, many self-media outlets also picked up the song and used it as background music.
The same scene has been repeated in many places in the past.
Two days later, "Little Apple" quietly squeezed into the new song chart, albeit in a relatively low position.
Shen Yuege and Liu Siqi have been releasing one song a day for the past two days.
Although the songs that came later were a little worse than those from the first two days, they would still be top-tier hits under normal circumstances.
This battle for the title of queen of pop has gradually become more and more outrageous.
Before this, no singer had ever put so many songs that could be hit singles on one album.
Most singers release albums with one hit single and nine bad songs.
However, each song from Shen Yuege's and Liu Siqi's two albums could be a title track.
The music scene was incredibly popular, but Lu Ran was extremely busy at the time.
Aside from taking some time off work a couple of days ago to record the song "The Summer Breeze" with Shen Yuege, he immediately started writing the novel and script for "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
The system is quite user-unfriendly in this respect. Although the system's information appears in his mind, Lu Ran still has to type it out word by word.
Furthermore, because the novel "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was published using the account "Tiancan Potato", it became very popular after only a few chapters were released.
The trouble with high popularity is that there are a lot of people urging for more updates.
Lu Ran, who originally planned to relax in another world, never expected that he would have to update 20,000 words a day when he was about to achieve financial freedom, which was more tiring than a dog.
"Looks like even after coming to another world, I still can't escape my fate as a beast of burden." After typing the message, "[My name is Wanyan Kang, I can't tell you my master's name.]", Lu Ran finally completed today's task.
His phone is now filled with messages urging him to update his writing.
He has written songs for "Battle Through the Heavens," "The Return of the God of War," and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes." Many fans have even left messages for him on music websites, urging him to hurry up and write a few more songs for Shen Yuege so that he can surpass Liu Siqi as soon as possible.
Fighting on three fronts, even with Lu Ran's exceptional energy, he felt somewhat fatigued.
For a moment, Lu Ran felt that having too many skills was actually a bit of a burden.
"I need to assemble a screenwriting team as soon as possible," he muttered to himself, rubbing his temples.
For a long novel like "The Legend of the Condor Heroes," relying on one person to produce it is not a sustainable solution.
Fortunately, good news came from Tan Yu's side: After reading the script outline and the first ten episodes, director Chen Ke actually contacted Xing Yao and expressed his willingness to take over as director.
The addition of this martial arts master has undoubtedly given the project a significant boost.
However, this was already within Lu Ran's expectations.
Take a break and scroll through your phone for a bit.
Lu Ran lay back in the chair and took out his phone.
As soon as I watched two videos of beautiful women wiggling their hips, I was bombarded with notifications on Weibo.
Lu Ran knew that this was the case when many people tagged him.
Open Weibo, and a trending topic is displayed at the top.
@Starlight Entertainment - Production Department Wang Shuo V:
"I heard that Xingyao Entertainment is also filming a martial arts drama recently, which happens to coincide with our Xingguang Entertainment filming one as well."
However, the depth and richness of a long-running drama are something that a short drama cannot replicate.
I heard that Xingyao is in charge of eight long-running martial arts dramas led by Lu Ran, right?
A word of advice: don't take on a task you're not qualified for, lest you end up with a mess that's neither fish nor fowl, and that'll be a disgrace to Xingyao.
Starlight Entertainment's statement can be described as utterly merciless.
Moreover, the target is the long-running drama series where Lu Ran is located.
Lu Ran narrowed his eyes.
After a few days of silence, the other party couldn't resist provoking them again.
It seems the last slap-in-the-face skit wasn't harsh enough; this time, it's going to bring shame upon itself.
Lu Ran knew without even guessing who had leaked the information about their eight-part series being adapted into a martial arts drama.
But such a low-level tactic was completely useless against Lu Ran.
Lu Ran's long script this time is more than ten times tougher than her previous short dramas.
At the same time, the director and actors were all carefully selected.
Starlight Entertainment jumped out at this time, originally intending to treat them as easy targets.
But this time, they were wrong again.
Lu Ran swiped his finger across the screen and saw that there were already quite a few likes and sarcastic comments from people in the industry under Wang Shuo's Weibo post, clearly indicating that Starlight Entertainment was stirring up trouble.
Lu Ran originally didn't want to be too high-profile during the project preparation period, but since the other party had already made such a direct attack, not responding would only make him seem guilty.
Moreover, many accounts have tagged him in the comments section of this Weibo post. If he doesn't respond, wouldn't he be at a disadvantage?
After a moment's thought, Lu Ran switched to his verified Weibo account: the one with over two million followers, verified as "Head of Starry Entertainment's Eight Long-Form Dramas / Producer / Screenwriter / Music Producer".
He tapped his fingers lightly and edited a new Weibo post in response:
@LuRanV:
"Thank you for your concern, Wang Shuo from the Production Department of Starlight Entertainment."
Since we've brought up the depth of a long-running drama, let's compare whose depth is greater.
In my opinion, Starlight Entertainment's long-running dramas are simply a mess.
Don't even mention Xingyao; I, a music producer who started as an editor in the short drama department, can completely crush you all.
Since Director Wang is so confident, how about we make a bet on this long-running drama?
Seeing Lu Ran's quick reply, and the fiery tone in his voice, the onlookers became excited.
Fight!Fight!
They don't care if the people on the other side are good people; they just want to have some gossip to eat.
Before the other party could reply, Lu Ran posted another Weibo message.
@LuRanV:
"Jian Jiu bets on the ratings and word-of-mouth of our eight martial arts dramas, 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes,' and your Starlight's 'Swordsman' during this summer's season."
If "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" loses in any one of the three categories—ratings, online viewership, or number of bullet comments—I will consider myself to have lost. Otherwise, I will consider myself to have won.
The loser's company will be dissolved on the spot!
Are you willing to bet?
