In fact, Lin Xia almost knew it from the beginning.
Universal Entertainment will definitely not be able to sit still.
After all, this show is so popular now, and there are so many contestants, and they have all become topical contestants now.
Universal Entertainment will definitely not sit idly by.
You must know that whether you are a singer or an actor, freshness is actually very important to the audience.
Singers release new songs, and actors star in new TV series and movies, all to keep their audiences and fans fresh.
This is something that is understandable.
New people are always better than old people. In fact, what I am saying here is not that as long as they are newly debuted artists and actors, they are better than the previous actors and singers.
Just because these newcomers are very worth exploring for the audience and fans, and they are also full of a lot of unknowns.
Maybe this artist's acting and singing skills are not comparable to those artists who have become popular before.
However, the victory lies in the fact that he is a newcomer, and Universal Entertainment naturally understands this truth.
This is why Universal Entertainment spends so much money every year to train new artists and sign new artists. It is for this reason.
There are so many contestants this time, and because the show is so popular, Universal Entertainment will naturally not let these contestants go.
Even if there was a lot of friction with Xia Qiu Culture before, even if Xia Qiu Culture has never dealt with it.
But these players who are worthy of signing must be signed by Universal Entertainment and will not be let go.
Just because Universal Entertainment signed these artists, Lin Xia was more or less unhappy.
After all, the feud between Lin Xia and Universal Entertainment is no longer a matter of a day or two.
It's just that Lin Xia and Lin Xia's company are still completely unable to resist Universal Entertainment.
In other words, Lin Xia today is not yet able to completely resist the outside capital of Universal Entertainment.
When these players are signed, they are signed.
However, after this incident, Lin Xia suddenly felt that this program could not become a wedding dress for Universal Entertainment.
After all, the reason I originally planned to hold this show was to increase my own influence and the influence of companies like Huaxia.
Nowadays, Universal Entertainment has signed contracts with artists who became popular through this show. Lin Xia always feels like making wedding dresses for others.
This feeling made Lin Xia very unhappy.
Although this program has made the city of Harbin popular, it can be regarded as becoming a new music capital.
But as the city of Harbin became popular, Lin Xia's company did not gain much benefit from it.
This point still makes Lin Xia feel uncomfortable.
Nowadays, Lin Xia, after this incident, feels that it may take a very long time to open a branch and expand overseas.
Now I really need allies like Mango Entertainment and other entertainment companies.
Only in this way can we be able to resist Universal Entertainment, its layout over so many years, and so many branches.
Speaking of which, after this show became popular recently, many entertainment companies have actually contacted Lin Xia.
After all, although Lin Xia's company did not get any outrageous benefits from it this time.
But everyone can also see how capable Lin Xia's company is in organizing programs.
Similarly, how huge are the various future benefits that Lin Xia can bring.
Among the entertainment companies that contacted Lin Xia, Lin Xia actually did consider cooperating with one of them.
Because the other party is also a large entertainment company that can compete with Universal Entertainment.
Lin Xia has always had a good impression of this company. It is Warner Music Group.
Warner Music Group is one of the world's three major record companies in the 21st century. It was originally affiliated with Time Warner Group, which owns Warner Bros. Pictures, Time Magazine, Fortune Magazine, CNN Cable News Network and other media giants.
Warner entered the Chinese market by acquiring UFO Records, a well-known local record company in Shenzhen, in the mid-to-late 1990s, and accounted for 30% of the Chinese record market. It now has many well-known artists in the Chinese-speaking area.
Speaking of which, most of the original singers and artists from China that Lin Xia has liked since she was a child are almost all from Warner.
Moreover, even now, there are many singers and actors in China that Lin Xia is very familiar with, and they are Warner artists.

In 1967, Warner Bros. Pictures purchased Atlantic Records, and in 1972 purchased Elektra Noneusch Records to form Warner-Atlantic-Elektra (WEA).
In the following decades, Warner Bros. continued to make acquisitions through various countries, including the French company Erato, the German company Teldec, and the Finnish company Finlandia.

In 1991, Shenzhen's famous local record company UFO Records was controlled by Warner Music Group. In 1996, UFO Records was officially acquired, marking Warner's full entry into the Chinese music scene.
Nowadays, many of the well-known singers from Hong Kong and the Cantonese songs that everyone likes very much are actually from UFO Music, which is Warner Music.
Therefore, Warner Entertainment, a company, has actually been developing in China.
And this company also has a lot of Cantonese singers.
Therefore, this company has always been loved by the public in China, whether it is songs or artists.
After the acquisition, UFO Records was renamed "Warner UFO" (Warner Music and UFO Records were tied together). However, due to the chaotic personnel changes of Warner UFO, its operating performance and market share fell into a slump in mid-1997.
After their contracts expired, their singers switched jobs or did not renew their contracts.
The most noteworthy thing about Warner Records in the 1990s is that in 1995, Zhu Zheqin Adawa was successfully introduced to the world market. The "A Sister Drum" album was simultaneously released in 56 countries and regions, becoming the first global release in the history of international records.
The highest-selling Chinese album, which has aroused strong repercussions in the international music scene.
In 1998, Zhou Jianhui, the former general manager of EEI Millennium Records, took office as the general manager of Warner UFO in Shenzhen and began to reorganize Warner UFO's business.
Based on the consideration of rebuilding the corporate image, Warner UFO officially changed its name to "Warner International Music Co., Ltd." in 1999, and changed its corporate logo to the Warner Music Group corporate logo. The original UFO corporate logo officially entered history.
In 2000, Warner turned its attention to Shenzhen and the mainland market, signing two big names, Zhang Huimei and Na Ying, in both places. It also successfully created the popular little diva Stefanie Sun. Together with Zheng Xiuwen, who is based in Hong Kong, Warner's "Tianjin"
Harem".
In addition, Warner focuses on the mainland market and signed contracts with "Wheatfield Music", an independent brand specializing in campus music, and "Pule Music", which is based on the concept of professional performing arts management. The two became Warner's franchise brands and established "Warner Wheatfield".
The recruitment of Park Shu, Zhou Xun, Lao Lang and others from Warner Wheatfield, as well as the mainland's top male and female singers Su Nan and Na Yingjun, has undoubtedly expanded Warner's brand connotation and mainland influence.
In the rapidly developing year of 2000, the mainland music market was monopolized by Warner. The career of Jin Haixin, a singer under the sub-label Wheatfield Music (specializing in campus singers), reached its peak after joining Warner.
Ye Beilei's first album "Pisces" after joining Warner was also well received, but Pu Shu's album has become even more popular in the mainland music market.
And these singers among them are actually singers that Lin Xia likes very much.
In 2002, Warner Music's music director Chen Jianning brought F.I.R.'s master tapes to Chen Zeshan. Chen Zeshan was so shocked that he immediately decided to sign them without even meeting anyone. After that, F.I.R. completely made Warner famous.
This should be Chen Zeshan's most important and correct decision.
In 2004, the cooperation between Warner and Maitian ended, and Maitian Music cooperated with Taihe Media to establish Taihe Maitian.
The fashionable band F.I.R. debuted on April 13, 2004. The pre-orders for their first album broke the record. The album of the same name topped the Shenzhen sales chart for 13 weeks, and as a newcomer, they ranked second in the annual record sales list.

In 2004, F.I.R. dominated the entire Chinese music scene. Its record sales, album quality and popularity exploded at a speed that no one could match. Of course, this was also the most successful period for Warner Records in recent years.
Since 2005, with the departure of many divas, Warner Music has lost its strength compared to before. Only F.I.R. and Xin Xiaoqi support the "Diva" banner of Warner in Shenzhen.
On March 23, 2005, Qiaojie Entertainment and Warner Records officially formed an alliance.
In 2008, Chen Zeshan, the top executive of Gold Medal Wind who was hit by the "chart buying incident", returned to Warner Records and assumed the role of President of Warner Records Greater China.
When top-tier singers such as Stefanie Sun and Zhang Huimei left one after another, Warner Records under the leadership of Chen Zeshan began to sign many singers.
On March 10, 2008, Xiao Jingteng joined Warner Records.
Jam Hsiao, who became instantly famous due to the singing competition in 2007, has confirmed to join Warner Music. Warner Music specially held a grand press conference for Jam Teng Xiao's signing today. Jam Teng, who has always been mysterious, low-key and easy to talk to people, performed brilliantly on this important occasion today.
Still calm.
Wang Beifen, General Manager of Warner Music Greater China, even brought a very special mysterious gift. Everyone knows that the Chinese diva Zhang Huimei owns a million-dollar microphone "Xiaobai".
The record company also gave Xiao Jingteng a "Xiaobai", but it was just a loudspeaker. The purpose was to hope that he could be on par with the queens and speak out to the whole of Asia.
At 9:10 pm on December 16, 2008, the signing ceremony for singer Jolin Tsai to join Warner was held grandly at the Water Cube in the Imperial Capital. Warner obviously attached great importance to the arrival of this queen and spent about 5 million yuan in rent. It will be released

A good singer.

Throughout history, Warner Entertainment has always made its fortune in China.
And now, it also has an extremely large influence on a global scale.
Therefore, if Lin Xia wants to cooperate, Warner Entertainment is undoubtedly the best choice for Lin Xia.
So after confirming that he wanted to cooperate, Lin Xia immediately informed the boss of Warner about the news of his intention to cooperate.
Because before, the boss of Warner Entertainment had sent some invitations to Lin Xia, wanting to meet Lin Xia and have a meal together.
The meaning is also very obvious, the other party actually wants to cooperate with Lin Xia.
