Chapter 244 Is this something a human can do? After Wu Mu returned to Beijing, he rested for two days and then began recording the album in a professional recording studio that the studio had contacted for him. This recording studio is also in Kaiyang District, not far from the company. So every day, in addition to Shi Wu, Shu Mei and others would also come to join in the fun and listen to the music live under the pretext of reporting work. Regarding Wu Mu's abilities, Shi Wu had to say that, apart from the fact that this boss had a bit of a strong personality, his business skills were indeed very high. When ordinary singers make an album, they usually hire a music director to plan the topic selection, collect songs, arrange the songs, determine the style, etc. This usually requires repeated communication and experimentation with a large number of songwriters and arrangers. But Wu Mu took care of it all by himself. It seemed as if he already had a complete and detailed idea in his mind. He would express his requirements very accurately as soon as he opened his mouth, and his efficiency was incredibly high. When recording, my condition is rarely bad and the progress is very fast. "Boss, Penguin Music is about to start the album's pre-promotion and pre-order. They asked us to make a batch of promotional materials and send them to them first, as well as the album cover. Boss, what style do you want to use?" Shi Wu took advantage of the break in Wu Mu's recording to ask.

The album cover is also very important, probably like a novel cover, it can give people a general impression at first glance. First determine the general style so that he can contact relevant photographers or painters. "Well, for promotional materials, you can just ask your contact to take the photos. As for the album cover..." Wu Mu hesitated. "I already have an idea for this. I'll give it to you in a few days." A few days later, after Wu Mu returned to his hometown, Nangang City, Shi Wu and others saw his cover idea. It's a photo that seems to have been scanned. The photo shows a little boy leaning his head on the legs of a beautiful woman with gentle eyes and a sweet smile. Shu Mei, who was standing at the side, immediately saw something from the little boy's eyes and said in surprise, "Boss, is this you when you were a kid?" "Yeah." Wu Mu nodded. "Boss, you were so cute when you were a child!" Shu Mei wanted to take out her cell phone immediately and take a picture of this photo to keep it. "well enough." After admiring her boss's cute appearance as a child with shining eyes, Shu Mei looked at the beautiful woman the little boy was leaning on with some hesitation, "Boss, is this your mother?" Many people on the Internet have long speculated about Wu Mu's family misfortunes. After all, whether it was from the songs he sang or the fact that he never mentioned his family affairs on any show, one could more or less feel it. As company employees who are closer to Wu Mu, Shu Mei and her colleagues feel it even more deeply. Ordinary artists will usually receive calls or messages from their parents or relatives. But their boss never did. Apart from people in his circle, he seemed to have never had any relatives or friends, and his previous life seemed like a blank. My brother must be an orphan, and he probably didn’t have a happy childhood, so he cut off all contact with the past.

Shu Mei thought to herself, she couldn't help but feel distressed when she thought that her now sunny and happy boss might not have had a good childhood. At the same time, I am a little bit impressed that a boss who grew up in that kind of environment could develop into the kind of personality he has now. If she hadn't known from private contact, she would have known that her boss was actually very passionate about life and was unusually happy and leisurely. She couldn't help but wonder if her boss was suffering from depression or something. "Ah." Wu Mu nodded, and didn't talk about this any more. He just continued, "Use this photo of me for the album cover, but focus on me, blur my mother's face, and just have a silhouette." If the theme is "The Disappearance of Him", then what cover could be more representative and memorable than this photo? It can be said that my previous life has always remained in this photo, trapped at that time. Shi Wu nodded and wisely didn't ask any more questions, "I'll find someone to handle it." The production of Wu Mu's new album was progressing in an orderly manner. But the outside world gradually felt that something was not right. "Hey, Pioneer Music didn't invite Wu Mu?" Cai Wanhai, who was about to release a new album, asked curiously to his agent beside him. His agent didn't quite understand, "No, not only the Pioneer Music channel doesn't have it, but also the Voice of Music and Entertainment News that we contacted don't have it either." The early promotion of an album is very complicated and tedious. Not only do you have to build momentum on social platforms, but you also have to contact major music magazines, radio media, and the like to do interviews in order to get the news of the new album in front of every audience member who might buy it. So when Tsai Wan-hai learned that Wu Mu's album would also be released at this time, he was undoubtedly very nervous. Not to mention the various publicity resources that will definitely divert the purchasing population of Wu Mu's album. He is very self-aware, and people will definitely prefer to invite Wu Mu rather than him. So he originally thought that he would not be able to get these publicity resources. But who would have thought that Wu Mu had no contact at all? It's more than just no contact. "I asked an editor I know at Pioneer Music, and he told me that they actually took the initiative to contact Wu Mu and wanted to arrange an interview, but Wu Mu did not accept it," his agent continued. what? Didn’t accept the active contact? What's the situation? Pioneer Music Magazine has quite a few readers, and most of them are potential buyers who pay attention to various albums on a daily basis and like to buy albums. Wu Mu can’t even do this? "In addition to these media promotional resources, there are also marketing companies with related accounts on Douyin and Xiaohongshu. When I contacted them, they also told me that no one in their circle had received any business orders from Wumu." No. What is going on with this Wu Mu? It would be fine if you don’t do any publicity in traditional media, but why not do any publicity in new self-media? Tsai Wan-hai was totally confused. Not only was he confused, netizens online also noticed that something seemed wrong. Some netizens who are looking forward to his new album and following the news about his new album every day discovered this. Ever since the announcement of the new album plan and the competition for copyrights between music platforms, the popularity of Wu Mu’s new album has died down? In the past, when singers released an album, didn’t they always strike while the iron was hot and use all kinds of news and information to keep the hype going?

But Wu Mu has not only maintained its popularity but also promoted itself in various media. It’s his own account, and he doesn’t even post news about his new album. He still uses his account every day, but his latest like was a post saying that the food in a restaurant in Beijing was terrible. Still replying below. Wu Mu's evolved form: "It tastes terrible!" what? No, let’s not talk about whether it is appropriate for you as a public figure to like or reply to such things. Brother, you are about to release a new album. If you don’t go around promoting it, do you still have time to go out and eat? Not only did you finish your meal, but you also went out of your way to search for other people’s negative reviews and like them? This seems a bit too relaxed, doesn't it? Everyone was speechless. What made them even more speechless was yet to come. Someone broke the news and complained. "An internal employee of a music platform complained that we should not wait for Wu Gou's promotion, as he had no intention of promoting it at all. After our company bought the copyright of his album, we were also waiting for him to promote it, but there was no movement. So our platform director went to ask him, and then we found out that he had no intention of making the album and uploading it to our platform." ??? When everyone saw the insider's revelations, a row of question marks instantly arose in their minds. After the album is finished, don’t promote it, just upload it and be done with it? Is this something a normal person can do? (besides) (End of this chapter)
