Chapter 834

"Then how much box office do you think this last installment of 'Initial D' can get?"

After being hit hard by Xu Feng, Jay Chou asked aggrievedly, like a dog that had its bone stolen. "If you do a normal roadshow, ten billion is the ceiling, but you can use some tricks." A color called "conspiracy" flashed in Xu Feng's eyes. "What do you mean?" Jay Chou was a bit confused. "For example, announce that as long as the box office breaks 2 billion, you'll release a new album or something."

"Ah, this... that won't work, right? My fans don't believe it anymore."

To be honest, now when Jay Chou says things like when he will release a new album.

It's like the boy who cried "wolf" in the fairy tale.

Having been lied to too many times, the fans don't believe him anymore. "Then there's nothing I can do."

Xu Feng shrugged.

You can't ask him to divorce his wife to hype up the popularity, right?

Jay Chou looked unwilling.

He personally really likes the "Initial D" series.

He is unwilling to see this IP end so hastily.

Isn't it just releasing a new album? I'll go for it!

"You aren't planning to release an album just for the box office, are you?" Xu Feng was a bit surprised.

However, Jay Chou nodded with unusual firmness.

Anyway, this album is already almost done, so if it can boost the movie's box office.

Then why not take advantage of it? "Get ready to be scolded."

Xu Feng felt it was necessary to give this brother a vaccination.

In his past life, this album of his was scolded quite badly.

And the popularity it triggered... to be honest, it was just so-so.

It was even inferior to Li Ronghao's "Ume Sauce," which was suspected of plagiarizing him.

There's no help for it; the Chinese music scene is already beyond saving.

Whether a song can become popular really doesn't depend on whether it sounds good.

But on whether it's brainwashing enough and suitable for playing on short video platforms.

This kind of destructive environment.

It's no wonder Jay Chou is too lazy to make music and has entered a state of retirement early.

"By the way, but the new songs I'm preparing now aren't enough for an album; why don't you write a few for me?"

Jay Chou asked again.

Xu Feng had an expression of "Are you kidding me?"

You haven't managed to put together an album in five or six years, and you still want me to help?

And Xu Feng knows his own limits; what right does he have to write songs for Jay Chou?

Isn't that like asking me, a literary plagiarist, to teach Master Hayao Miyazaki how to make animation?

However, there is indeed one song Xu Feng "wrote" that Jay Chou included in the album—"One Punch."

Yes, that's the theme song for "One Punch Man" that was released two years ago.
