Chapter 137 As soon as 'Nocturne' sounds, go on stage to receive the award
Shi Huazhen originally wanted to bring a wave of rhythm, but fortunately, netizens planted a seed in their hearts to question the quality of the album.
But after thinking about it, she decided to give up.
With so many people paying attention, various ideas will naturally arise, so there is no need for you to do anything extra.
And things did develop in the direction she expected.
Day five.
"How much money did Zhou Ziwu spend this time, so that Tan Miao would not hesitate to belittle herself but also promote him?"
"How could it be money? What kind of celebrity position does Tan Miao have? Is he short of money? If the album itself was not of extremely high quality, no matter how much money you gave him, he would not be able to say the words 'living in his shadow'"
of."
"If you give enough money, anything is possible. Even if you are an actor, don't you still shoot junk web game advertisements?"
"I still tend to think that it was the album's extremely high quality, so high that even if it didn't win three or five Golden Melody Awards, I would be sorry for these people's Weibo posts, which impressed these people."
…
Zhou Ziwu didn’t know who sent his album to Tan Miao, which caused him to post such a Weibo.
Judging from Tan Miao's Weibo content, he feels that the possibility of Fang Qin is very high.
As soon as Fang Qin's figure appeared in his mind, the phone call came.
"I'm sorry, brother Zhou, I sent your three songs to Tan Miao. I thought about asking him to help promote your album and increase the popularity of your album, but I didn't expect... Hey, I was wrong this time.
, I will accept whatever punishment you say."
His, Shi Yue, and Zhang Beifeng's Weibo posts were basically half-joking.
I sent it to Tan Miao because I wanted to help Zhou Ziwu. Unexpectedly, Tan Miao also played the same game and successfully escaped.
There are two kinds of rhythms on the Internet now, whether they are those who suspect Zhou Ziwu spent money, or those who believe that the quality of his album is ridiculously high, neither of them is a good thing for the upcoming album.
Needless to say, for the former, in their expectation, Zhou Ziwu spent money, so there must be something wrong with the quality. After wearing tinted glasses, it is natural to find faults in the eggs.
The latter seem to have unparalleled confidence in the new album, but nothing is too much, and once the quality of the new album fails to meet their extremely high expectations, then they will be ready to face their anger.
Regarding Fang Qin's proactive apology, what else could Zhou Ziwu say.
"It's okay, Brother Fang, you did bad things with good intentions, so don't blame yourself too much. But, next time you do this again, can you inform me in advance?"
Fang Qin said ashamedly: "There won't be a next time. Alas, I did something wrong this time. Next time we meet, I will apologize to you in person."
…
Amidst the doubts and arguments among netizens, the time came to January 25th, the day the album was released.
In the past week or so, Zhou Ziwu has basically not promoted the album.
Because with the current popularity of the album, there is no need to promote it anymore.
In addition to the album, Zhou Ziwu's work focus this week has been more on another permanent music competition variety show after his "The Strongest Voice" - "So You're Still Here".
This is also his second cooperation with Mango TV after "The Strongest Voice".
As for the director, it is still his old acquaintance, Hong Chou.
According to Hong Cho, they also invited Fang Qin, Zhang Beifeng... in this program.
"Six hundred thousand per episode?"
Zhou Ziwu heard the quotation fed back by his father and confirmed it again.
Zhou Wenshan said: "With your current reputation, it may be a bit low, but I still suggest agreeing. After all, we still owe others a favor."
Zhou Ziwu nodded.
This is true. If it weren’t for Mango TV’s support, I might have been banned from Weibo.
But what he didn't expect was that Mango TV would be so realistic. Just after helping him, he would turn around and ask you to return the favor.
"Actually, this offer is quite acceptable." Zhou Wenshan added: "As you know, since the entertainment industry has been rectified, the maximum per person per episode of variety shows is one million. In other words, even Fang Qin,
At most, I can only get 400,000 more than you."
Zhou Ziwu said: "Dad, you don't have to say anything, I'll go."
First, he wants to return the favor to Mango TV, and second, he just wants to have fun on the variety show.
Fang Qin and Zhang Beifeng are both here, and the director is Hong Chou, both of whom are acquaintances, so he can have more fun.
Zhou Wenshan smiled and said: "Okay, then I will reply to them right away."
…
at noon.
Penguin Music, "Zhou Ziwu" is online on time.
Because this is the first album of Zhou Ziwu, a top-notch artist, it is inherently popular. So after it was released in the studio, major music companies frantically contacted Zhou Wenshan, looking forward to releasing this "Zhou Ziwu"
, and even all the music copyrights after Zhou Ziwu were acquired on their own platform.
Of course, the latter is a luxury, their main goal is still the current album.
Penguin Music, as a domestic music broadcasting platform giant with a strong backing, finally won the exclusive copyright of "Zhou Ziwu" with the help of nearly 100 million people.
The contracts they offered were divided into two models, one was a fixed share of the signing fee of 3 million, and the second was a gambling contract of 5 million signing fees. If the performance was up to standard, he could get up to 100% from the net profit.
Got 80%.
After careful consideration, Zhou Ziwu and his father jointly decided to sign the second contract.
It's not that he is greedy for the extra two million signing fees, but that he has confidence in his album.
After winning "Zhou Ziwu", Penguin Music did not skimp on its own promotional resources. Starting seven days ago, it spared no effort to promote "Zhou Ziwu" in various conspicuous places such as the homepage cover, app opening animation, user site messages, and AI recommendations.
"Zhou Ziwu" promotion.
And this is basically the treatment that a king-level singer can only enjoy when he releases a song.
Shi Huazhen was sitting on the sofa in her pajamas, with a pot of fragrant hot tea on the coffee table in front of her.
Ten minutes ago, she was sitting here with her cell phone in her arms, so that she could rush to witness Zhou Ziwu being hit by public opinion as soon as possible.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! She still feels that it is not enough for the overwhelming number of "Zhou Ziwu" during this period. She wishes that everyone in Xia country knew that Zhou Ziwu had released a new album.
In this way, there will be more scolding.
The few Weibo posts by Fang Qin and Tan Miao raised "Zhou Ziwu" to a level that did not belong to him.
With such enthusiasm, there is definitely no shortage of music critics holding a magnifying glass to find fault.
Even Tan Miao's songs may not be able to resist so many people with ulterior motives, let alone a mere Zhou Ziwu.
If he wanted to avoid being criticized, he had to achieve perfect scores in his music. Although he had two skills, she didn't believe that he could do it without any flaws.
With the development of the music world, mainstream music styles have become mature. It is precisely because of maturity that professional music critics with magnifying glasses can discover the shortcomings in songs.
Unless his new album is a niche style that few people are involved in, but in that case, ordinary listeners can knock him out without the need for professional music critics.
The so-called niche means that only a small number of people appreciate it, and "Zhou Ziwu" with its current popularity is facing the general public.
So no matter what, this time "Zhou Ziwu" has been confirmed!
Who asked you to play such a high-profile role? Damn it!
After another pull-down refresh, Penguin Music Zhou Ziwu's personal homepage has three new songs.
Seeing the title of the last song, Shi Huazhen laughed very loudly.
After laughing, she picked up the teapot, poured herself a cup of fragrant tea, and took a pleasant sip.
Everyone has been waiting for so long, forget it, you only have three songs, and the other one is "Because of Love" that everyone has heard before.
Now, the reputation of "a man with limited talents" will never escape him.
Putting down the teacup, she opened "Nocturne" with a smile on her face.
In this world, there is also Chopin and his "Nocturne". In Shi Huazhen's view, Zhou Ziwu's daring to name his song "Nocturne" to offend a historical celebrity is undoubtedly an act of seeking death.
With a disdainful sneer on her lips, she began to listen.
A brisk prelude of piano mixed with guitar sounded.
Even with the intention of watching a joke, Shi Huazhen had to admit that this prelude was a bit ear-catching.
What's the point of having a nice prelude? The key lies in the back.
She comforted herself in this way, and the smile on her lips did not change.
After the prelude, a male voice came into my ears.
"A group of bloodthirsty ants, attracted to carrion."
"I have no expression on my face, looking at the lonely scenery."
While she was listening, a window suddenly popped up.
[The trial is over, pay ten yuan to listen to the entire album.]
She twitched the corner of her mouth and rushed in ten dollars.
These ten dollars should be used as a gift for his subsequent "funeral".
The recharge is successful and the song continues.
"Without you, love and hate begin to become clear."
"If I lose you, what else do I have to care about."
"When doves no longer symbolize peace."
"I was finally reminded."
"The vultures are being fed in the square."
Shi Huazhen picked up the teacup again and took a sip of tea. However, the tea that had left a fragrance on her lips and teeth just now was now as bland and tasteless as boiled water.
Putting down the teacup, the corners of her mouth curled up again.
It’s just a few lines, and it’s not like I haven’t seen a song that starts before it ends but ends at the end.
"Play Chopin's Nocturne for you."
"In memory of my dead love."
"The sound is like the night wind, it sounds so heartbreaking."
"My hands are very gentle on the keyboard, and my thoughts are very careful."
"The place where you are buried is called Netherworld."
Shi Huazhen held on to prevent the corners of her mouth from drooping.
This is only the middle, there is still half of it.
A person who travels a hundred miles is only half a century old. The difficulty is not to persevere, but to persevere.
"I use pretty rhymes."
"Describes a love that has been robbed."
"Stupefied~"
The guitar sweeps away and the song ends.
Shi Huazhen pressed the pause button expressionlessly and returned to the new album page.
On Earth, there is a widely circulated meme: as soon as "Nocturne" plays, one goes on stage to receive an award.
It turns out that this is not actually a joke, but a fact described.
At the 2006 Chinese Music Chart Award Ceremony, "Nocturne" won five awards including Best Song of the Year, Best Male Singer, and Best Singer-Songwriter.
As soon as Jay Chou stepped off the stage after receiving the award, he was called up by the host to deliver his acceptance speech.
Jay Chou, who was not good at speaking at the time, was forced to give an acceptance speech for the same song five times.
That scene is very... funny just thinking about it.
After that day, as this joke continued to be mentioned, this "Nocturne" was played and he went on stage to receive the award.
Looking at "Nocturne" under Zhou Ziwu's personal homepage, Shi Huazhen took a deep breath.
Everyone has their own preferences for radish and greens, and aesthetics is a very personal thing. Although I think it sounds good to me, others may not think it sounds good to me.
After convincing herself again, she opened the comment area and tried to find corresponding arguments for her views.
With so many people, there will always be a few who find it unpleasant.
"The prelude to this song, I would like to call it invincible!"
"Is this really just the first album of a newcomer who debuted less than a year ago?"
"Produced by Ziwu, it must be a top quality product!"
"When I saw Teacher Fang and others praising her so much, I listened with the intention of finding fault. Now I apologize for my childish behavior, Zhou Ziwu is awesome!"
"Perhaps Tan Miao is not being modest."
"If they debut at the same time, it's hard to say whether Zhou Ziwu can beat him, but I'm sure that his current achievements will not be lower than Tan Miao."
"As a student at the same alma mater as Zhou Ziwu, I have to admit that his talent, even for me, has to stay away from the spotlight for a while."
"Is this avoidance going to last a lifetime?"
"There are not many songs that I can fall in love with after listening to them once, and "Nocturne" is one of them."
"call--"
Shi Huazhen's hand almost slipped on the screen and bled, but she couldn't find the comment she wanted to read. She breathed a sigh of relief and exited the comment area.
The first wave of people who arrived were all fans, but the real passers-by were still behind.
After finding reasons for herself countless times, she looked at the second song, "Blue and White Porcelain."
Looking at the song title, it is another Xia Guofeng song.
Before that, he had already composed many Xia Guofeng songs such as "Rolling Bead Curtain", "Preface to Orchid Pavilion", and "Wanjiang".
Coming here again this time, Shi Huazhen felt that this decision was really unwise.
Although you are the founder of Xia Guofeng, you still chose Xia Guofeng when the album received such high attention. Do you think you can make another breakthrough based on your previous achievements?
If you can't, those music critics with magnifying glasses won't tolerate you.
Standing still and not making progress.
After thinking about two words in his mind to regain some confidence in himself, Shi Huazhen clicked on "Blue and White Porcelain" and began to listen to it.
five minutes later.
She pressed the return button frantically, but Zhou Ziwu's voice still sounded.
Long press Penguin Music to uninstall.
call.
The world is purified.
She slumped on the sofa, thinking about the hot search post about Zhou Ziwu's withdrawal from Weibo some time ago, and a smile suddenly appeared on her face.
Then, her smile grew thicker and thicker, and finally, she burst into laughter.
Even if I open it, so what, he will never come back anyway.
Don’t even think about catching it!
the other side.
Zhou Ziwu Studio.
Everyone, including Zhou Wenshan, stopped what they were doing and focused on what deserves most attention at the moment - album sales.
