030 The new song became popular and started to become a fan
Sing a song!
Cao Xuan bowed to express his thanks, and the program crew of "Talk in Beijing" burst into long and warm applause.
Some young female audience members waved and screamed at Cao Xuan desperately, and the host, reminded by the director, stopped Cao Xuan who was about to leave.
"You sang so well just now, I was almost moved to tears."
Although he knew that these hosts were accustomed to speaking in exaggerated accents, Cao Xuan was still not used to it when he first came into contact with them, so he only replied with one sentence.
"Thanks."
"Was this song specially written for the drama "Love to the End"?"
The host was experienced and realized that Cao Xuan was not suitable, so he immediately got to the point.
"Yes, I met Director Zhang through Teacher Liu Huan at that time. Director Zhang told me the outline of the TV series, and then I created this song based on the story of the TV series."
"That's right."
Zhang Yibai interjected: "When Cao Xuan heard what I said, he was inspired on the spot and took out the first edition in half an hour. After I listened, I was immediately conquered."
Cao Xuan naturally knew how "Light Chaser" came about, and Zhang Yibai probably also understood in his heart that this song had nothing to do with "creating on the spot".
But for publicity, appropriate beautification, exaggeration and storytelling are very common techniques.
If you don't brag and I don't brag, how can the ratings go up?
It’s all just a routine!
After this experience, Cao Xuan also relaxed and chatted with the host about the theme song.
After about 5 minutes, the director had almost finished reading the material. With a gesture, the host understood and started to wrap up.
"Is there anything you would like to say to the audience at the scene and in front of the TV?"
"Thank you for your support and love, and I hope you can watch our new drama "Love to the End". I believe you will not be disappointed."
After that, Cao Xuan bowed and left the stage amidst applause, and returned to the backstage lounge. It was almost 9 p.m. when the recording of this program was finally completed.
Zhang Yibai treated him to a treat and had a meal with the director and host.
After dinner, everyone prepared to go back to their homes. Xu Cainv also wanted to ask Cao Xuan to sit in a coffee shop, but Cao Xuan declined and went back to Dashizuo Hutong after a date.
Another day later, Cao Xuan came to Jingcheng TV Station again and conducted an interview on "Nan Ren Bei Cao".
According to Cao Xuan's original intention, he wanted to explain the whole story clearly, but now that Beijing and Taiwan want to use this as a hype, it's not up to him.
However, Cao Xuan did not make as big a statement as Beijing and Taiwan hoped. Although he acquiesced to [Southern appointment as Northern Cao], his attitude, words and deeds have always been modest and low-key.
The director responsible for the interview was disappointed.
However, he was worried about cooperating later, fearing to push Cao Xuan into a panic, and Jiang Yue, who followed Cao Xuan, "accidentally" exposed the suspected recording equipment she was carrying, so she was obviously well prepared.
With the threat of recording, the director did not dare to play tricks on Cao Xuan and could only choose to stir up the topic from the side.
………
On November 28, Beijing TV launched an exclusive interview "Conversation with Cao Xuan - No need for controversy, just want to be the best version of myself".
In the special feature, Cao Xuan behaved appropriately and was neither arrogant nor impetuous, which refreshed the negative impression many people had on him through the media.
At the same time, Beijing and Taiwan also put forward a new point of view on the topic.
That is, although the term "Nan Ren Bei Cao" is somewhat untrue for the time being, don't forget that Cao Xuan just debuted this year, and strictly speaking, it was less than half a year.
In half a year, Cao Xuan achieved such brilliant results with just one single.
If the timeline is extended by three years, who can guarantee that Cao Xuan will not become the king of mainland music.
By then, [Nan Ren Bei Cao], who is now despised by everyone, is likely to become a legend in the Chinese music scene.
This statement sounds like it is true, but if you think about it carefully, it is full of loopholes.
Using an illusory future to define achievements that have not yet been achieved is, to put it bluntly, an arrogance.
But Beijing and Taiwan don't care about this. Their own purpose is to stir up the issue of "Nan Ren Bei Cao" again. It doesn't matter whether there are loopholes in the rhetoric, as long as it becomes more popular.
And the subsequent development was indeed as Beijing and Taiwan expected.
Everyone is no longer obsessed with whether Cao Xuan is qualified to be ranked [South Ren Bei Cao], but debates whether he has any hope of catching up with the now famous Ren Xianqi in the future.
There are those who ridicule, and there are also those who encourage.
[Nan Ren Bei Cao] has once again become a hot topic in the media, but compared to last time, Cao Xuan's reputation is much better.
The image has changed from "a clown who doesn't know the heights of the world" to an "inspirational challenger with ideals and pursuits".
Cao Xuan has finally seen the ability of this group of media to turn their hands into clouds and rain.
At the same time, I also became determined in my heart. I will be more careful when dealing with this group of people in the future. Related interviews must be backed up with audio recordings or even videos to avoid being deceived and left with no words to explain.
As Cao Xuan once again became a man of the hour, "Love to the End" premiered on Beijing Satellite TV on December 1.
In just one week, the highest regional ratings reached almost 48%, and the nationwide ratings almost exceeded 5.2%.
Of course, the ratings statistical methods these days have great limitations, and the ratings data are often inaccurate and can only be used as a reference value.
But even if there are discrepancies in the data, with such a high numerical base, even if the water is squeezed out, the remaining data is enough for "Carry Love to the End" to become popular all over the country.
Countless local TV stations spent money to buy the second and third rebroadcast rights of "Love to the End".
Li Yapeng and Xu Cainv became famous in one fell swoop. The roles they played made them the "god couple" envied by countless audiences across the country.
Also popular is the opening and ending theme of "Carry Love to the End".
"Light Chaser"
"Wait for your love"
Especially "Light Chaser", it only took 4 days to reach the top ten of the major music charts, and the radio on-demand rate during the same period was the well-deserved number one.
"I can follow you, like a shadow chasing the light, sleepwalking."
After the lyrics resounded in the streets and alleys, they also flowed into the campus. The fresh, delicate and heartfelt lyrics of "Light Chaser" have been favored by countless students.
If "Ten Thousand Reasons" made Cao Xuan famous, then "Light Chaser" made him win countless fans.
After the performance clip of Cao Xuan in "The Big Talk" was aired, it broke the show's highest ratings record and made Cao Xuan's handsome face famous for the first time.
Cao Xuan’s female fans are increasing rapidly!
Especially in the student group, Cao Xuan's rise was extremely strong, and he challenged a large number of well-known singers one after another, and the number of fans expanded rapidly.
The statement "Nan Ren Bei Cao" has once again become a hot topic, but compared to the previous cynicism, there are now more and more affirmations towards Cao Xuan.
Many people have begun to believe that the name [Nan Ren Bei Cao] will slowly shed its ignominious birth in the future and become an established fact...
