Chapter 20 Rushing
On September 6th, "Song for Myself" took another step forward on the season rankings, reaching eighth place. I don't know if Lin Zhibai's voice was echoed.
Just when Lin Zhibai thought about the download growth rate of "Xiaochou" last month, he knew that this time it might be difficult for this song to even enter the top five.
Because just from the ninth to the eighth, this song took three or four days.
It just so happens that the higher up the season rankings are, the greater the gap between each song is.
But my sister is right. The song's industry reviews are indeed good. Lin Zhibai saw a lot of news that gave positive affirmations.
also.
Many experienced seniors in the industry also praised Zhang Xiyang's singing skills as being as good as before, and even improved to a higher level, faintly entering a new realm.
Is this considered a success but not a success?
Lin Xi saw that his younger brother seemed to be obsessed with rankings, and comforted him: "Except for Qu Dad, there are very few winning generals on the season charts. As your second song, "Song for Myself" is You can call it an excellent one, but you have to know that it is difficult for many newcomers to even pass the second song, let alone an excellent one. This is what we often call a flash in the pan."
“I understand everything.”
Lin Zhibai is mainly concerned about reputation and money: "Do you think I still have a chance?"
Lin Xi couldn't laugh or cry: "I can only say that eighth may not be the final ranking, because the promotion war for the season ranking has just begun. Shinhwa has already promoted it on Guangpu to build momentum for Zhang Xiyang's return to the music scene. In addition, tonight he will appear on " "Cloud Song Club" is his first stop for personal promotion, and there are many promotional announcements waiting for him to follow. If the public buys it, the ranking is expected to continue to rise."
There is another sentence that Lin Xi did not say:
Zhang Xiyang has been silent for too long. No one knows what kind of effect his first public appearance after his return will have. Even the veterans in the industry don’t know how many fans Zhang Xiyang still has from back then, after having no new songs for so many years?
“Okay, let’s not think about it.”
Lin Zhibai returned to his room after eating breakfast. At this moment, he was mostly excited.
Because with the popularity brought by the new song and the subsequent influence of "Xiaochou", he finally got another chance to win the lottery!
“Start the lottery.”
The bedroom door was closed, and a big turntable jumped out in front of Lin Zhibai's eyes.
唰!
The turntable stops.
Hong Kong's voice sounded: "Congratulations to the host for winning the TV series "Crazy". This lottery is over."
TV drama?
Not a song?
Lin Zhibai was stunned for a moment, and then he felt that "Crazy" sounded familiar. It seemed to be a very popular TV show in his previous life. He quickly opened the system warehouse to check the details of the script.
There was a numbness in my brain.
Lin Zhibai’s mind came to mind with relevant information about “Cyclonus”, and he naturally understood the popularity and discussion this drama had caused in his previous life.
An Xin?
Gao Qiqiang?
The single draw is a miracle!
Lin Zhibai’s lips curled up into a smile. This drama is extremely valuable!
However, Lin Zhibai thought he would get a song again, but it turned out to be a script. It seemed that the second step of the plan to fight for the family property must be implemented as soon as possible.
The fat water does not flow to outsiders' fields.
Father Lin Dong is a television director.
Lin Zhibai will definitely give this script to his father for filming, but when and how he will hand it over requires careful planning.
If Lin Zhibai directly handed over the script to his father, it would be equivalent to handing over to "Myth", which would not maximize profits.
After all, my father is just a TV drama director.
Even if this drama becomes a hit, my father, as a TV drama director, will not be able to get as many practical benefits as my sister.
Unless the father is also a manager who needs performance.
Instead of doing this, it would be better for Lin Zhibai to get a share of the pie.
If he wants to get a piece of the pie, Lin Zhibai must first complete the second step of the plan, which is to use some external investment to borrow chickens and lay eggs in Shinhwa.
Then the problem comes back to the original point.
If there is insufficient start-up capital, the second step of the plan cannot be carried out.
The current channel for Lin Zhibai to make money is the two songs that have been released so far.
Lin Zhibai scratched his head, still he could only hope that "Song for Myself" could help him make more money.
As for the present?
Of course I am writing a script.
Although the system provided a script, the information was all in his head. Lin Zhibai needed to write it down himself, so it was considered as a temporary change of job as a screenwriter.
…
That night.
eight thirty.
The scene of Qinzhou's "Cloud Song Club" program.
Zhang Xiyang was backstage with his eyes closed, but the manager next to him was a little nervous: "You haven't performed on stage for several years. You don't have to interact too much with the host when you go up. You can just sing. I've already taken care of it."
"Um."
Zhang Xiyang still closed his eyes. This is his habit before performing on stage, and he needs to adjust his state of mind to the best.
This is the first stop for the promotion of the season chart, and it is also Zhang Xiyang's first song back in the music scene. He hopes that the next step will be a perfect stage.
It’s not that he is dissatisfied with this song, but rather with its ranking. Zhang Xiyang feels that this song deserves a higher ranking. He has become more and more Buddhist in recent years, but it does not mean that he has lost his spirit.
“You should cut your hair, and you haven’t shaved your beard.” The agent complained.
"My hair and beard have been trimmed, and my clothes have been changed as you arranged. There will be no problem." Zhang Xiyang comforted the agent, who was much more nervous than him.
“This is a live broadcast after all. If I had known better, I would have arranged a recorded program for you.”
"The most interesting thing about this show is the live broadcast. I like things without so many embellishments." "Okay."
The manager was a little curious: "Now the outside world says that this song was written by Bai Di based on your experience. Is it true?"
"I have no idea."
Zhang Xiyang doesn’t think so. Bai Di never mentioned this, but looking at the lyrics, it seems like it is?
It happened that the director of this song forest was the first one to come to him to audition, so he was not sure. Could it be that this song was really composed by Bai Di based on his own experience?
“That should be it.”
The agent thinks it’s not that coincidental.
“Not every question requires an answer, whether it is or not, I am very grateful to him.”
Zhang Xiyang said softly.
He thought he was not ready to return yet, but when he saw this song he suddenly changed his mind.
This song, he wanted to sing, from the bottom of his heart.
At this time.
On the noisy stage outside, amid the roar of people, the host raised his voice slightly:
“The singer who is going to appear next is very special.
“He has not appeared on any stage for more than three years.
“Many people thought he had retired from the music scene, but on the 2nd of this month, he announced with a song that he had come back.
“He is the singer Zhang Xiyang!”
Amidst the curtain call, Zhang Xiyang stood up and walked towards the stage.
The agent looked at Zhang Xiyang's back, his palms were already sweating, and he kept praying in his heart.
And off the stage.
Everyone looked at Zhang Xiyang with a somewhat shocked expression!
Because the way Zhang Xiyang looks now is completely different from the past.
“He is so thin.”
“He didn’t look like this before.”
“It’s not easy for a has-been singer.”
“He is not angry, he left on his own!”
“The shock of the divorce, it was discussed in a lot of news back then, but he didn’t say anything.”
“You can understand it, you know your own feelings. It’s useless to tell others about it. It took half a year for me to get over the last time I broke up.”
“Me too, so I especially like “Song to Myself”. It’s so distracting, as if I’ve been shot.”
“He spent more than half a year on it, but I have no interest in this song.”
“I have a general feeling about this song, but it’s really not easy for him. I hope he can work hard.”
“Come on Zhang Xiyang!”
"come on!"
Some audience members shouted in the audience.
Then more and more spectators shouted.
These shouts seem to gradually bring back everyone’s memories of Zhang Xiyang’s past.
Whether you like "Song for Myself" or not, who hasn't heard Zhang Xiyang's songs before, and who doesn't have his songs in their music player?
At the time when the shouting was the loudest.
The audience in the first few rows suddenly stood up.
brush!
A huge banner was unfurled: [Zhang Xiyang, you are not the sunset, you are our sun! 】
Obviously.
These people are fans of Zhang Xiyang, and they are waiting for the moment when Zhang Xiyang returns.
This is also the moment.
Everyone suddenly realized:
Some people are still not forgotten by everyone even if they have been gone for a long time. More often, they will become something called "feelings".
"Thanks."
Zhang Xiyang took the microphone and was a little surprised. He didn't expect that he still had so many fans.
Taking a deep breath.
Zhang Xiyang whispered: ""Song to Myself"."
