Chapter 234: Chapter 223: Can It Be More Memorable?

Shu Mei’s idea was that spending money to market the concept that Wumu had returned to the top tier was worthwhile.

As long as the promotion was extensive, a lie told a thousand times would become the truth.

Moreover, Wumu’s popularity was already at the top tier; his popularity was basically perceived by everyone in the circle.

It was only uncertain how many loyal fans he still had who were willing to continuously spend money on him.

But as long as this concept was marketed, talking about it enough would make it an established fact.

A marketing concept?

After hearing Shu Mei’s thoughts, Wumu slightly shook his head, "Let’s not do marketing."

As for whether returning to the top tier would benefit him, of course it would; not to mention, his film remuneration and various endorsement fees could increase.

Bigger names would seek him out for projects, increasing his popularity, and he could earn more points when appearing on shows.

However, this type of marketing could also disrupt the popularity he had always maintained and might bring him too many unnecessary chase fans.

He did not need any fans; even if he had fans, he hoped they were independent and rational. After all, he didn’t need to rely on fans’ money for his living; the money from the Performance Card boost was enough, and it was much more than what fans could offer.

He welcomed the rational judgment and actual necessity of everyone, or perhaps those who weren’t short of money and supported him simply out of interest.

But those fans who fell into a frenzy, scrimping and saving until it affected their real lives just to support him, he did not want.

Moreover, once you’ve taken a path, it leaves traces. Hiring people for marketing would eventually be exposed, affecting his reputation.

In the future, he wouldn’t be able to proudly claim that he achieved everything today solely through his own efforts.

Well, plus a little bit of help from the system.

Anyway, returning to the top tier was just a matter of time; there was no rush.

Seeing that Wumu refused, Shu Mei wasn’t surprised at all, having roughly expected this before she even spoke.

After all, her Evolved brother’s personality was indeed too distinct; anyone with a little understanding could guess his preference.

If not through marketing, then it must be done through sheer ability.

Starring in a sensational drama series... Shu Mei immediately dismissed this option; acting was still too challenging for her brother.

Only one option remained...

"Boss, when are we releasing an album? Just one more album like ’Farewell,’ or even if it’s only half as successful, it would still prove your strength!"

Shu Mei said hopefully.

The ’Farewell’ album had nearly ten million in sales, but since it was released a long time ago and the numbers had increased due to many coincidences, it somewhat lacked strength.

If her Evolved brother released a new album with five million in sales, wouldn’t he instantly return to the top tier?

An album?

Wumu thought and said, "I do plan to release a new album, I’m already preparing the songs."

Even Shi Wu was surprised, "Boss, you’re releasing a new album?"

"Yes, the songs I wrote for Director Wang’s film, I plan to release them as my own personal album."

Wumu didn’t hide it; he nodded and explained, then pulled out his phone and found the song samples saved on it, "There are already five songs; a few more and it’ll be about complete."

Not only was he preparing a new album, but he had also already written five songs?

Surprised and at a loss for words, Shi Wu realized his own position as the manager at Wumu Studio was ironic, as he didn’t even know about his own boss’s plan for a new album.

It just showed that their boss truly treated them like tools, not needing them to handle such matters.

The curious tools flocked together, listening to their boss’s new song samples.

And upon hearing those...

They had to admit, the quality was indeed quite high.

These songs, if placed in someone else’s album, would mostly be considered potential main hits, and yet Wumu had packed them all into one album.

Especially songs like ’I have nothing’ and ’Look back,’ both possessing the potential to become timeless classics.

But...

"Boss, the themes of these songs seem a bit inconsistent, isn’t it a bit messy to put them all into one album?" Shi Wu hesitated.

Compared to a normal album, the theme was definitely a bit chaotic.

But after all, it was a soundtrack album for a drama series, used in various parts of the drama, so naturally, the themes couldn’t be unified.

Shu Mei also had her opinion, "Boss, as your first album after your comeback, it still lacks some impact."

"Many online are expecting your first comeback album to have more ceremonial and commemorative significance. Releasing it as a soundtrack album might disappoint everyone."

A spark of inspiration struck Shu Mei, "Boss, isn’t Director Wang’s project called ’Disappeared’? Why not just use ’Disappeared’ as the theme to commemorate everything before your collapse? We can include songs you previously sang like ’Heavenly Queen,’ ’Under the Sea,’ ’Numb,’ and such. Isn’t that unified in theme and also commemorative?"

Wumu looked a bit strange.

Shu Mei really had some interesting ideas.

That indeed would be commemorative... the commemorative value would be completely maximized!

Shu Mei and the others thought he was making a comeback after his collapse.

But only he knew that his predecessor was truly gone, an authentic ’Disappeared.’

Furthermore, combining it with the fact that the protagonist in Director Wang’s film also dies by jumping into a river added a unique symbolism.

And there was no need to worry about it being inappropriate to stuff his old songs into a soundtrack album.

He could let these songs appear in the drama.

In the ’Disappeared’ series, there were many scenes of characters listening to or singing songs.

Orginally, Wang Ren had planned to use various old songs from this world for these scenes, and some of the more important and symbolically significant ones would feature Wumu’s new songs.

For instance, the scene where Cui Fu and others sang in a KTV, because it was important, allowed Wumu to newly write ’I have nothing’ for use.

There were also many other scenes with characters listening to MP3s, car audio systems, radios, etc., all potential places to insert his songs.

And if these places didn’t fit, since it was a modern urban drama, it was feasible to have his songs play as background music in a passing hair salon.

As long as the songs made an appearance in the drama, there was every reason to include these songs in the album.

And if it was to commemorate his predecessor, he could also find some other suitable songs to add.

Various thoughts flashed through Wumu’s mind, and finally, he nodded, "Alright, let’s use ’Disappeared’ as the theme then."
