Chapter 71 Bombardment

Chapter 71 Bombardment
The office of the chief director of "The Rap of China".

Looking at today's live broadcast data, chief director Wu Jun was beaming with joy, and deputy director Guan Minhong also breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the data is not as explosive as when "New Era of Heavenly Group" was first broadcast, it is still a good result that can satisfy everyone.

"Minhong, these days are really thanks to your suggestions. If you weren't here, I don't think we would have such good data on our show today."

Wu Jun had a gentle smile on his face, no longer as cold as before: "I'll have to trouble you for a while. I can only feel at ease if you handle some of the things on the show."

"That's what I should do, Director Wu." Guan Minhong smiled, "It's just that the expenses in the next few days may be a bit high, so in terms of funding..."

Before Guan Minhong finished speaking, Wu Jun waved his hand and said to her, "Don't worry about the funding. As long as we get the data right, everything will be fine."

"Okay, Mr. Wu."

The smile on Guan Minhong's face deepened.

However, at this moment, a woman wearing black-framed glasses and an OL suit came hurriedly over here and said to the two directors of the program in an anxious tone:
"Director Wu, Director Guan, something terrible has happened! Ding Xin has started to act up again! She suddenly posted an article on Weibo, directly attacking our "New Rap", and even the "New Era of Heavenly Group" next door has suffered!"

Ding Xin, the former queen of the Chinese music scene.

Now, at the age of nearly 50, she is still active in the entertainment industry, while many of the singers who became popular at the same time as her have disappeared without a trace.

She originally had a good reputation in the circle, but since she participated in a program, her reputation began to decline sharply.

His evil deeds such as being a big shot, having a bad temper, kicking fans, and casually belittling others were exposed to the public.

However, after Ding Xin apologized under pressure from public opinion, these matters began to come to nothing.

She is still the queen of pop she once was, and has not been affected in any way.

What’s funny is that because of these events, she was even dubbed the “topic queen of the entertainment industry.”

Many people flock to her, but many people stay away from her.

This is the bizarre and dreamy entertainment industry.

"She attacked our production team? What the hell is wrong with her?"

After hearing what his assistant said, Wu Jun lost his composure, which was extremely rare, and swore.

The smile on Guan Minhong's face disappeared, replaced by a more solemn expression.

Obviously, both she and Wu Jun don't want "The Rap of China" to have anything to do with Ding Xin.

The female assistant took out a tablet that she had prepared in advance and handed it to the two of them to watch. The content displayed on the screen was exactly the article published by Ding Xin.

The content of the article is very straightforward, and it begins with an equation.

Chinese rap = simple beat + vulgar vocabulary + weird singing style.

What followed was a wave of denigration of rap, denigration of rap culture, and denigration of the rap music form.

After belittling rap, he then began to belittle the show "The Rap of China".

In short, in Ding Xin's writing, rap and "New Rap" are both regarded as a kind of dregs, an existence without any connotation.

This article especially mentioned the hot searches bought by the "New Rap" program team today.

Ding Xin spent a lot of time and effort on this point.

The more Wu Jun read the article, the more she felt that it was the hot searches bought by "The Rap of China" today that annoyed her.

"Fuck, this crazy bitch is full of shit. Did I offend her by putting my show on the trending searches? Fuck you, crazy bitch."

Halfway through the article, Wu Jun started cursing, and all the joy he had previously felt from seeing the live broadcast data was gone.

In the entertainment industry, if you have anything to do with Ding Xin, there will definitely be bad luck.

Not to mention this kind of direct attack. Guan Minhong also frowned at this moment. Ding Xin's words were very sharp, and it might attract the attention of the higher-ups.

But thinking of this, Guan Minhong breathed a sigh of relief.

The songs sung by the contestants on "The Rap of China" have all gone through multiple rounds of review before they can be sung, and it can be said that there are almost no banned words at all.

Even the word "Laozi" in the dialect was censored into "I" in the subtitles of the program.

So basically you don’t have to worry about the content of the song.

The only concern now is the tattoos on the players.

Among the contestants of “The Rap of China”, at least eight out of ten have tattoos.

If this point is criticized, I'm afraid the post-production team of the program will have to work overtime again.

Guan Minhong had some prepared responses in her mind and continued reading the article.

And Wu Jun, after cursing loudly, also calmed down and continued reading.

He wanted to see what this crazy woman Ding Xin could write.

then.

A long-lost smile appeared on Wu Jun and Guan Minhong's faces.

This crazy woman Ding Xin, after criticizing their "The Rap of China", started criticizing "The New Era of Heavenly Group".

People’s psychology is very strange. If you lose a hundred yuan, you will feel very uncomfortable, but if a friend around you also loses a hundred yuan, then this matter is not a big deal.

This is how Wu Jun and Guan Minhong feel now.

After all, happiness comes from comparison.

"Waste of resources, deliberate marketing, star creation, tsk tsk tsk."

Wu Jun stroked his chin, his mouth almost raised to his ears. "The show 'New Era of Heavenly Groups' has been criticized by crazy women. There is even a group that was caught as an example, GoldenCold and Phoenix Flying. Didn't the show like to bundle you two for marketing before? Now Ding Xin has dealt you a heavy blow."

As Wu Jun said, while criticizing the show "New Era of Heavenly Groups", Ding Xin also mentioned the two groups Golden Cold and Fenghuang Yufei as typical examples.

She said that the GoldenCold trio were products of the Aoki Entertainment assembly line, singing songs written by professional composers and lyricists, but they had no skills of their own and no creative ability to create their own works.

Artists like these who are deliberately marketed through an assembly line will only cause the Chinese music scene to gradually wither away.

As for Phoenix Flying, Ding Xin said: "They have creative ability, but not much. The songs they write are like children playing house, without any connotation. All kinds of messy elements are mixed into one song, which sounds weird, tacky and low. Such a group can frequently appear on the hot search, which is really sad for the Chinese music scene."

At the end of the article, Ding Xin also raised her own questions.

What happened to the Chinese music scene in recent years?
"Interesting, interesting, this is really fucking interesting."

After reading the entire article, Wu Jun was a little amused. Ding Xin was just firing a map cannon, attacking everyone indiscriminately.

"Director Wu, do we need to respond to this article?"

Guan Minhong smoothed her hair and frowned.

Although Ding Xin was once a pop diva, she is still very influential in the entertainment industry. Coupled with the deliberate exaggeration of those unscrupulous media, I wonder what kind of public opinion this article will stir up.

"Respond, of course I have to respond."

Wu Jun said in a slightly cold tone, "She has disparaged rap and The Rap of China, which will surely arouse public outrage in the rap community. As the current leading team in the rap community, we officials naturally cannot sit idly by."

At this point, he paused for a moment, "Let the contestants of the program control themselves a little, and we have to respond in a proper manner, so that everyone can see what the diss culture in rap is all about."

Guan Minhong nodded solemnly, then smiled faintly: "And we are definitely not the only ones who will respond to this article."
