Chapter 260: Chapter 240 Weibo Hot Discussion (4K)_2

That’s just ridiculous, this is too ridiculous.

If it were anyone else, Shi Wu would wonder if their brains had gone bad.

But when it came to his own boss...

He could only say that even if it’s about being unique, you can’t be this unique!

Isn’t this just wasting good money?

Not only was Shi Wu stunned, but even Sun Yueqing, who had been quietly listening to their conversation and eating her own meal without interrupting, was dumbfounded at this moment.

"No way, you’re not going to promote your album when it launches!? Who’s going to know when your new album comes out!?"

Wu Mu, however, didn’t seem to think there was anything outrageous about his idea and said with a smile, "There’s no need for any special promotion, right? Just post a Weibo, and everyone should pretty much know about it."

Promotion?

And have the company take care of promotion?

He wasn’t about to waste that kind of money.

Unless he used the Profit Card right away, he would stick to the normal Performance Card. The marketing and promotion would completely eat into his own profits.

The marketing expenses for a mainstream singer’s new album are usually at least thirty to fifty percent.

If that’s fifty percent, and then the music platform takes another thirty percent, wouldn’t he be working for someone else?

The big profits from the Performance Card would all go to someone else.

Of course, if the company’s promotion could bring him additional users and income outside of the Performance Card, that might be okay.

But from his experience, the kind of users that could be reached by a promotion company were typically those who would be covered in the heat and events caused by the Performance Card.

So spending this kind of money is a complete waste.

He felt that spending this kind of money is being a sucker.

But Sun Yueqing was already looking at him as if he was exactly that kind of sucker, "You’re way too arrogant! Even if you’re super hot online, it’s not like everyone is staring at your Weibo every day! How many people can you influence with just one Weibo post!?"

This was no longer confidence, but rather an overinflated ego!

Even the biggest stars wouldn’t dare to say that just by posting on Weibo, everyone would know what’s happening.

After all, the number of people who check Weibo every day is just a minority.

Sun Yueqing was speechless.

But Wu Mu just laughed and said, "Didn’t you always ask me how I make so much money? Now I’m sharing my little secret with you. As long as you spend less on this sort of thing, naturally, you’ll earn more."

Sun Yueqing gave him a blank look, "If I listen to you, I’d go bankrupt."

"Alright, do as I say."

Seeing that they still wanted to argue, Wu Mu made the decision right away.

However, after speaking up, he remembered something, "Oh right, no need to bother with company promotions, but you can contact some shows. Going on a show to promote might be good."

Freeloading off the show’s promotion, while also earning points, didn’t bother him.

What else could Shi Wu say? He could only continue to play the part of a good tool.

But internally, he was shaking his head even more. With such a willful boss, this studio is bound to tank sooner or later. He should start thinking about jumping ship.

Wu Mu said to just use Weibo for promotion, so that’s what they did.

After discussing the album with Shi Wu, he logged into his account, which had gone quite a while without any new posts.

Then, he composed and posted a new status.

Wu Mu Evolved: "New album ’Disappeared’ is in production, set to officially release around early November."

Although Sun Yueqing was speechless by his actions, she still took out her phone and helped promote it by sharing.

Actress Sun Yueqing: "Mu’s new album is about to be launched, whispering here, I’ve previewed the demos, and each song is incredibly good, all are single material, definitely worth buying!"

After posting on Weibo, she lost the appetite for her meal and held her phone, scrolling to see the public reaction.

And well, the feedback was pretty good.

Like under her new Weibo comment section.

"Wu is releasing a new album? It feels like it’s been almost two years since his last one, right?"

"When other people say an album sounds good, I might believe them a bit, but when you say it... I highly doubt how much truth there is to it."

"Anti-fan, don’t make awkward attempts to diss. Does Sun Yueqing need to hype Wu? As for what you said, I might even agree with you to bash, but when it comes to Wu’s songs, has he ever released a bad song?"

"Yeah, I remember I didn’t really like that song. Everyone was hyping it up, with all this talk about poetry and a tenderness that seeps into your bones or whatever, but I just didn’t hear it... However, to be fair, Wu’s songwriting skills are seriously impressive. The hit songs he’s churned out in just half a year could rival someone else’s lifetime work."

"Wu’s singing abilities are definitely top-tier in the industry. Out of respect for Sun Yueqing, I’ll buy his new album when it drops."

"Just a few days ago I was wondering why Wu hadn’t released a new album yet. He’s made so many songs in half a year, it would have been several albums for anyone else."

Although people still call him Wu, it’s clear that everyone views his singing abilities quite positively.

With a lot of people talking about supporting him both for Sun Yueqing’s sake and for his own talent, it looks like his next release is going to get some love.

After checking her own comment section, Sun Yueqing nodded in satisfaction and then went to check Wu Mu’s comment section.

And then...

"How come your Weibo is so hot!?"

Sun Yueqing had 56 million Weibo followers, while Wu Mu had only 5.2 million.

Nearly ten times the difference.

But judging by the number of comments, Wu Mu’s Weibo activity was even higher than hers.

Wu Mu justified himself with admirable confidence, "Isn’t it normal for me to be trending? My followers are loyal and they keep engaging with me, so of course my activity is high. Who knows how much fluff is in your 56 million?"

Damn it, so proud of washing your followers, huh?

I wish I hadn’t promoted you.

Sun Yueqing gave him a withering look.

Then she opened his comment section and noticed something even more infuriating.

So much for normal heat, turns out others were promoting him too!

Right at the top of the comments was a profile with a white cat avatar.

Mo Mo: "Looking forward to Teacher Wu Mu’s new album!"

She clicked on the white cat avatar, and unsurprisingly, the top post was their shared Weibo.

Mo Mo: "Teacher Wu Mu’s new album is about to drop, blind-buy it!"

Hmph.

Blind-buying, must be nice to be so chummy!

Sun Yueqing hmphed to herself twice and went back to Wu Mu’s Weibo, then she saw that Wu Mu had replied to Mo Mo’s comments as well.

Evolved Wu Mu: "Haha, how much has Teacher Mo Mo’s new album sold?"

Mo Mo: "5.1 million."

Over five million?

Didn’t it just come out a few months ago? And it’s already this high?

Sun Yueqing was secretly amazed. She had to admit that Mo Mo’s popularity was through the roof, practically standing at the pinnacle of domestic female celebrities.

She was on a whole other level than other top stars, with a national presence and fan engagement that was frighteningly high.

Evolved Wu Mu: "Then I’ll aim to exceed Teacher Mo Mo’s sales."

Seriously, are you for real?

That confident!?

Sun Yueqing looked at Wu Mu speechlessly.

If it were regular promotions, she wouldn’t doubt Wu Mu’s capability. Given the standard of his albums where every track is a hit, catching up to Mo Mo’s numbers seemed entirely possible.

But this guy had no intention of promoting properly. How on earth does he plan to sell over five million with this attitude!?

Mo Mo: "Hehe, trust in Teacher Wu Mu."

Trust, huh?

Sun Yueqing felt pretty sour inside.

She’d known Wu Mu longer and always had a great relationship with him, but for some reason, she felt like she was being outdone.

She just skipped past their conversation and looked at other netizens’ comments.

And then she found that Wu Mu’s comment section was even more positive than hers.

Despite having a scary number of anti-fans, you couldn’t tell at all from the anticipation-filled comments below.
