    There is a sentence in the 25th chapter of Matthew in the New Testament of the Bible that says: ¡°To everyone who has, more will be given, so that he will have an excess; and to him who does not have, even what he has will be given  Take it away." There is also a sentence in the 77th chapter of the ancient Chinese classic "Tao Te Ching": "The way of heaven is to make up for the loss and make up for the deficiency; the way of man is not the same, to make up for the loss."  Two sentences from this classic literature are translated into modern Chinese as "the strong get stronger and the weak get weaker", or it is called the Matthew effect.  And now, the sales of Mi X¡¯s album have clearly demonstrated what the ¡°Matthew Effect¡± is.  After the album sales topped the US Billboard charts in the third week, Lin Zhimo's "Not Afraid" and Shakira's "Only Girl" actually occupied the third spot on the Billboard Singles 100 chart at the same time.  and fourth position.  This phenomenon immediately attracted a lot of attention from people who like music. After all, these two songs were only at the bottom of the singles chart before, but just one week later they suddenly jumped to the third and fourth positions. How can this not be  Calling attention?  But then, the performance of this album shocked everyone.  After the Mi X album won the sales championship in the third week, it actually bucked the trend and grew again in the fourth week, with sales of 610,000 copies!  Still a champion!  In the fifth week, 620,000 tickets were collected, still the champion!  It was not until the seventh week that this huge dark horse in the music world stopped his consecutive championships and stepped down from the championship.  However, it still occupies the runner-up position, and at the same time, the sales volume is 200,000 higher than the third place!  If the sales of Mi X¡¯s album can be called jaw-dropping, then the ranking on the singles chart can be called a miracle.  In the third week, Lin Zhimo¡¯s ¡°not afraid¡± and Shakira¡¯s ¡°only girl¡± were ranked third and fourth respectively, but in the fourth week they became first and second!  Next, the singles rankings seemed to become the back garden of this album. While occupying the first and second places, the album's "love the way lure" suddenly emerged without warning.  It became number five on the singles chart!  Three singles from the same album occupy three positions in the top five!  Everyone was shocked and dumbfounded by Mi X's performance.  Countless musicians who released films at the same time regretted it.  I thought that since there were no big-name singers releasing films at this time, it would be a perfect opportunity for me to perform, but no one expected that Lin Zhimo and Shakira would give everyone a heavy blow.  But things are not over yet.  The glory of Mi X continues.     next week.  The song "love the way" has been rising in the rankings.  In the end, it successfully squeezed out Shakira's "Only Girl" and became the runner-up on the singles chart. However, the song "Only Girl" still did not retain the third place. It was the fourth place this week.  The third place also comes from an album called Mi X!  The name of this song is "teenage life"!  It¡¯s still a song sung by Lin Zhimo!  Everyone went crazy. There were actually four songs in the top five of the singles chart from the same album, and they also occupied the top four respectively. This was a unique thing in the history of the US Billboard.  No one has ever done this!  Next, in the sixth week, Lin Zhimo¡¯s ¡°not afraid¡± left the top spot, but the replacement was still his song, which was ¡°teenage life¡±.  Two number one singles from one album!  This achievement is enough to enter the history of American music again.  Back then, the "first me" Lin Zhimo came out in China and won the honor of having the highest sales of new artist albums of the year. Now it seems that even in the United States, this is still no exception.  By the next week, Mi X¡¯s album sales began to experience a significant decline, but at this time the sales of the entire album had reached a terrifying figure of five million copies, and its sales were still growing upwards.  Lin Zhimo can be said to be very tired during this period, because he needs to shoot music videos and promote promotions for his singles non-stop. It is precisely because of the timely release of these singles that this album  That¡¯s why so many regulars on the ranking list suddenly appeared.  You should know that there are generally three ways to release a single. The first is to trial it before the regular album, which is the so-called testing the waters; the second is to put it on sale together with the album, which is usually for those who have been famous for a long time.  This is what only famous singers can do; the third method is now used by Lin Zhimo and Shakira. They shoot the MV and release a single after the regular album. This is also what manyThe choice for newcomers to the music scene.  Now, relying on the excellent quality of this album, fans' demand for singles is growing day by day, so Lin Zhimo and Shakira have been filming MVs non-stop during this period of time. It can be said that whether it is physical  Still very mentally exhausted.  "Sister Wen, how are things arranged here in the United States?" Lin Zhimo finally had to take a rest on this day, and due to Lin Zhimo's fire in the United States during this period, he had to bring his agent Huo Xiwen also  Call the United States, otherwise Lin Zhimo will not be able to handle these things every day.  "There is no big problem. The schedule and other things have been prepared in advance. You can relax a little bit in the next period of time. After all, you also said that singing will not be your main business in the United States in the future." Huo Xiwen looked at Lin  Zhimo's eyes were slightly darkened and he couldn't help but said with distress: "Zhimo, you don't have to be so anxious. The results you have achieved now are beyond the dreams of many people. There is no need for you to work so hard." Lin Zhimo sighed.  He closed his eyes and leaned his head on the back of the sofa and said, "How come I don't know, but I'm used to being busy. I can't take any time off." Lin Zhimo naturally knew how big of a sensation he had caused during this period.  , it is estimated that no one in the United States who pays attention to the entertainment industry does not know his name, and because of Lin Zhimo's Chinese identity, he has aroused widespread repercussions even in society, even among Chinese people far away in China.  Uncle Zeng Mengquan from the Propaganda Department called him and specifically told him to pay attention to his image.  According to Zeng Mengquan, Lin Zhimo is now more than just an entertainment star. To some extent, he also represents the image of Chinese people abroad, so he hopes that Lin Zhimo will not say anything that will cause ambiguity.  Of course, he added at the end, no trouble.  But don't be afraid of anything.  Lin Zhimo was quite helpless at Zeng Mengquan¡¯s instructions.  You must know that he is a star in the entertainment industry, and any star in the entertainment industry will lack news. Even if there is no news, reporters will create news for you, and they make a living from it.  Thinking of this, Lin Zhimo was about to say something.  Then I heard Huo Xiwen's cell phone ringing.  "Hello. Hello." Huo Xiwen was a little surprised that he didn't recognize the number displayed on his phone.  But after a while, the expression on Huo Xiwen's face became excited: "Okay. Okay, thank you for the invitation, we will definitely go over to record the show. Okay, goodbye!" Lin Zhimo saw Huo Xiwen's excited expression.  Asked: "Which program is it?" In recent times, as Lin Zhimo's name has been constantly mentioned, his fame has continued to rise. He has also appeared on many TV programs, but among those programs, Lin Zhimo  Zhimo felt that he was treated more like a fresh commodity, and all his actions seemed to be like an animal in a zoo, trying to please others.  In fact, strictly speaking, these celebrities are animals in the zoo, but these animals have their own thoughts and fans. No one in this world would say that they entered the entertainment industry solely to devote themselves to art.  But Lin Zhimo didn¡¯t know if it was his own misunderstanding or what. He always felt that he didn¡¯t feel much respect on those programs. Maybe their language was very polite, but they still viewed him with a condescending attitude.  Lin Zhimo also told Huo Xiwen his feelings, but now that Huo Xiwen knew that he was dissatisfied with the American program, he still showed this expression, which only shows that this program is very influential in Huo Xiwen's opinion.  .  "The Oprah show." Huo Xiwen didn't hide it, nor did she deliberately tease Lin Zhimo as usual. She told Lin Zhimo directly with excitement.  As Lin Zhimo's agent, as Lin Zhimo grew step by step into a star that is now internationally famous, Huo Xiwen's daily contacts were naturally those big stars that ordinary people could not easily come into contact with.  .  But even so, Huo Xiwen still has a fan mentality towards Oprah. This is not only because of Oprah's achievements. It is indeed admirable that she has achieved her current achievements as a woman and a black woman, but Huo Xiwen prefers  What is most striking is her strong spirit of never giving up in the face of adversity.  ¡°Oprah is rather an idol to Huo Xiwen, let alone a being similar to a spiritual mentor.  When Lin Zhimo recorded the Oprah show last time, Huo Xiwen didn't follow her to the scene because she was in China, but she still asked Lin Zhimo to get an autograph from Oprah. Now she has the opportunity to see her heart in person.  Idol, Huo Xiwen was naturally very excited.    However, it was not entirely because of this that Huo Xiwen rashly agreed to this interview for Lin Zhimo.  As a qualified agent, it is an essential quality to always pay attention to the status of one's own artists. Huo Xiwen naturally knows very well about Lin Zhimo's dislike of variety shows, but Huo Xiwen also knows that Lin Zhimo is not interested in the last Opp  The impression of the show was pretty good, or the impression was very good, and this interview was only with Lin Zhimo.  Therefore, after hearing that the Oprah Show invited Lin Zhimo again, Huo Xiwen directly agreed without asking Lin Zhimo's attitude.  Lin Zhimo was slightly shocked when he heard that the show was the Oprah Show. After all, he had just participated in the show more than a month ago, so why was he being asked to do it again now?  (To be continued)
