Chapter 472: Chapter 267: Damaging your mother’s head, the six departments of the company are carried on my shoulders! (10k)_4

“How come?” He was in Cicada Noise Studio and casually opened the recording.

“Our side has become aware… We urge your side to cease the infringement on our artist, otherwise our legal team will pursue legal action against you.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Qingyan’s lips twitched slightly.

“Go ahead and sue.”

After speaking, he hung up the phone and cursed, “Sword Tomb crap.” They’re talking about suing? The process on our side started yesterday, what kind of trash PR is this.

Just wait, I’ll make sure you’re unemployed.

The number of comments under the small artist’s promotional post kept growing. Xu Qingyan only posted a picture with the words [Sword Tomb] and nothing else; he was waiting for the case to be filed.

Meanwhile, the first-day sales of “Stubborn” were out, and to everyone’s surprise, the sales exceeded one hundred thousand, ultimately settling at one hundred and thirteen thousand purchases.

For Xu Qingyan, this result was already quite a surprise; after all, he wasn’t exactly a top-tier celebrity. If anything, he could be considered a part-time singer.

The hype for “Blue and White Porcelain” had long passed. He only mentioned the release of his new song on the day it went live, and on the first day, basically only fans paid for it.

Even for star singers, without overwhelming promotion, not many people will know they’ve released a song, let alone that Xu Qingyan didn’t want to spend money on it.

Another day passed, and the other side, unchangeable in their ways, called again. Their tone was much softer, but they still demanded Xu Qingyan stop the infringement, or else.

Xu Qingyan: “Oh, go ahead and sue.”

At the same time, the sales for “Stubborn” were still rising, breaking into the top twenty of the new song charts on some music sites. Xu Qingyan took a glance, nothing special—nineteenth.

The comments section was mostly fans complimenting, not much to take seriously.

But some comments puzzled Xu Qingyan. He read them back and forth several times and couldn’t understand them, even suspecting that some anti-fans had come to provoke.

For instance, “I’m crying, Brother Xu’s gentleness reaches deep into the bone,” and “Brother Xu has always been like this, I cried when I saw the line ‘I’m stubborn and kind-hearted.”

There were quite a few similar comments, leaving Xu Qingyan completely baffled. He didn’t remember paying for any shills, and since when did people cry over song lyrics?

More importantly, he knew he had fans, but he had never seen them. To be precise, he had never cultivated a group of major fans.

Since music wasn’t his main job, he hadn’t expected to have many hardcore fans before. Managing fans would be too much for one person to handle.

You’d either have to hire someone or set up your own studio. But given his workload of three songs a half-year, setting up a studio wasn’t necessary.

However, judging by the looks of it, the number of active fans was close to surpassing ten thousand and still growing. Zhou Lili revealed that there was a good number of die-hard and career fans among them.

With so many people, it could easily become chaotic; he’d seriously have to consider finding some operators in the future. It’s not about seeking merit, but avoiding fault, as long as they didn’t back-stab him for no reason.

On the third day, the small artist’s album sales surged, reaching third place on the best-selling album chart. The small artist’s fans were ecstatic, flocking to Xu Qingyan’s comment section to celebrate and hurl insults.

But on the same night, Xu Qingyan’s new song “Stubborn” suddenly shot up to the number eleven spot on the Penguin Music New Songs Chart.

At the same time, on the Penguin Music Hot Songs Chart, “Blue and White Porcelain” and “Rice Aroma,” which had fallen behind due to fading popularity, suddenly jumped to the third and eighth positions on the chart.

Although on different charts, Xu Qingyan’s songs jumped forward because of this incident. Three songs now occupied the top positions on two different charts.

This phenomenon caught the attention of many in the industry; many music directors from entertainment companies turned their eyes towards Xu Qingyan, completely ignoring the male idol.

There’s no need to listen to the quality of the songs; the data alone allowed for some analysis.

They had noticed him before and even approached Xu Qingyan, but after being rejected, these companies didn’t continue, as Xu Qingyan at the time wasn’t worth their efforts.

But looking back now, against the backdrop of that subpar male idol’s album, Xu Qingyan’s songwriting skills appeared as consistently outstanding as ever.

Xintian Entertainment, Gray Rabbit Entertainment, Da Jiang… several company directors called Xu Qingyan, seeking a breakthrough for collaboration through relationships.

This time, Xu Qingyan didn’t outright reject them, simply saying he was busy with work. The directors from the companies understood, as creativity takes time.

After a friendly chat, Xu Qingyan’s worth in the market increased by fivefold.

Of course, this price was only verbal; the real amount would depend on the actual songs and his schedule. But regardless,

Xu Qingyan not only had his name hanging in several big entertainment companies but also ranked before a host of veteran lyricists and composers. There were no collaborations yet, but relationships were established.

In addition to the tangible goodwill, his reputation soared to new heights.

On the fourth day, the male idol’s album sales began to show signs of fatigue; the daily sales started to decline, dropping to sixteenth on the album charts.

Xu Qingyan’s “Stubborn,” however, made gradual progress on the new song charts. There was no need to compare; “Stubborn” had already climbed to fourth place.

This rapid rise in rankings was like a harsh slap across the faces of the male idol’s delusional fans.

Xu Qingyan’s fan groups had several leading fans in orderly management; even in their triumph, they never used inflammatory words, to avoid giving the other side any handle to retaliate with.

The fans knew this was for Brother Xu’s sake and were all secretly holding their breath, waiting for what the major fans described as “the right moment,” “trust in Brother Xu,” and so on.
