Just when Cao Xuan was guest-starring Cai E in "Party Founding", on October 28, the first promotional song for the new album "Xuan" was released on the QQ Star website and Penguin Weibo.
When Liu Tianle (appeared in Chapters 168 and 527) saw the news, he had already been in the Internet cafe in his hometown for three days.
In 2008, he mustered up the courage to go to Hangzhou to find the goddess Wu Lanlan.
Fortunately, Wu Lanlan was single at the time.
Unfortunately, Wu Lanlan still had no interest in him.
However, Liu Tianle, who has experienced social training, is no longer the rookie in junior high school. It doesn't matter if he is not interested. A good girl is afraid of being harassed by a man.
Just lick it and that’s it!
After all, they were young classmates, and their relationship was pretty good. Although Wu Lanlan didn't like him, she didn't have any bad feelings towards him, and even had some good feelings for him. This was a very good and good foundation.
Liu Tianle was not ugly, his salary was good at that time, he dressed decently, he was generous with his money, and he was willing to please Wu Lanlan in a small way.
The famous emotional expert Wang Powang in the Northern Song Dynasty once summed up the five tricks to pick up girls - [Pan Donkey and Deng Xiaoxian].
Liu Tianle's comprehensive evaluation accounted for 0.5 [Pan], 0.2 [Deng], and 1.5 [Xiao], barely enough to make a beggar's version.
After a fierce pursuit, Wu Lanlan, who was still a college student at the time, was actually captured and achieved a counterattack.
However, after the counterattack, there is a very real problem.
Wu Lanlan is a graduate student at Zhejiang University, and now she is a student with no source of income. Liu Tianle can barely maintain the status of "well-matched". When people enter the society, will he, an insurance seller, still be worthy of her?
If it was just for fun, Liu Tianle would not worry about this, but he really likes Wu Lanlan and wants to be together for the rest of his life.
So in 2009, Liu Tianle chose to resign and use the savings he saved from his job + funds supported by his parents + part of the loan to open a restaurant.
Mainly focusing on the flavors of southwestern Shandong and northern Jiangsu, the target group is those regional people who work and live in Shanghai.
In the end, Liu Tianle borrowed more than 200,000 yuan in debt and finally opened the restaurant.
I thought that the business would be booming. I would repay the capital in half a year, make a profit in one year, open a branch in two years, join the franchise in five years, ring the bell in ten years to go public, marry the goddess, and reach the peak of life.
But in fact, it was barely able to maintain a balance of payments for half a year, with a slight loss for one year. Now it has been open for almost two years, and it is just a breath of time away from bankruptcy.
Now let alone settling down in the Yangtze River Delta, he doesn't dare to stay at home when he goes back to his hometown for fear of running into someone who wants to pay...
"Da da da……"
The transport ship fired a barrage of fire, but not a single person was killed. Just as he was about to change bullets, his head was shot from an unknown sniper rifle.
boom!
Liu Tianle angrily slapped the mouse on the computer table, and the Internet cafe owner sitting at the bar near him looked up at him in displeasure.
However, looking at Liu Tianle's unshaven beard and bloodshot eyes, he just muttered something but didn't say much.
The QQ icon hanging in the lower right corner of the computer kept flashing. Liu Tianle knew that Wu Lanlan was looking for him, but he didn't know how to face it.
He was afraid of hearing the words he least wanted to hear, so he ran back to his hometown from Shanghai and hung up QQ, but never dared to open it and take a look.
Taking off his earphones, Liu Tianle went to the toilet. When he came back, he heard someone shouting from the Internet cafe.
"Cao Xuan's new song is out, you can read it on Weibo."
Liu Tianle was stunned, and suddenly thought that Wu Lanlan, who was a big fan of Cao Xuan, must also be listening to the song at the same time. He laughed at himself and started the game again.
But I don't know if I played "CrossFire" for more than half an hour intentionally. The number of heads in my hand was only single digits, but I died more than a hundred times.
"What a broken machine."
Liu Tianle slapped the keyboard angrily, and Liu Tianle skillfully deflected the blame. The Internet cafe owner raised his head in displeasure again, glared at him fiercely for several times, and then lowered his head to read "Myth".
In it, Lu Su, played by Liu Tianxian, is looking lovingly and lovingly at the pale Yi Xiaochuan lying on the bed.
Liu Tianle, who couldn't play the game, fiddled with the computer aimlessly, and then unknowingly opened Weibo. The homepage was Cao Xuan's new song MV.
Liu Tianle hesitated for a moment and finally clicked on the video.
At the beginning of the MV, there was no music directly, but a noisy underground corridor.
At this time, Cao Xuan appeared. Different from most glamorous images, the Cao Xuan in the MV was young and shabby.
He has slightly loose and fluffy hair. He is wearing long sleeves with a logo that was popular in the last century. The English on the logo is printed incorrectly. His lower body is in washed white jeans. He is carrying an aluminum lunch box in his right hand and a guitar bag on his back.
into a dark and cramped basement.
The basement is quite tidy, but the environment here still looks a bit crowded and desolate.
After putting the guitar away, Cao Xuan opened the lunch box. Inside were two cold steamed buns and a few chopsticks of shredded potatoes.
Then Cao Xuan rummaged through the cabinets and found half a packet of seasoning powder left over from the instant noodles he bought last time to satisfy his craving. He made soup with hot water and made steamed buns to eat.
The entire MV took one minute to film Cao Xuan entering the room, "cooking" and eating. When Cao Xuan was on the screen, he drank all the instant noodle soup.
All the viewers felt sad.
At this time, the prelude finally sounded, and the soothing piano sound carried a touch of sadness. Cao Xuan in the video also took out his guitar and played it gently, and a low and magnetic singing voice sounded.
"A good person like me should have lived a brilliant life
Why is it that after more than twenty years, I am still floating in the sea of people?
A smart person like me has long said goodbye to simplicity
Why did it take a relationship to exchange for scars?
…”
As if a sharp arrow had penetrated his chest, Liu Tianle stared blankly at the video. Cao Xuan's singing came to his ears, but all he thought about was himself.
When he was seventeen or eighteen years old, he was very high-spirited. Even if his college entrance examination results were not satisfactory, he felt that he could find a new world with his own ability and overtake others in corners.
In his last year of college, when an internship opportunity came, he thought that if he could work hard, he would get a promotion and a salary increase.
However, no one told him that the internship arranged for him by the school was to screw screws in a factory, which was a confusing day in and day out. It was boring and boring, and all his ambitions were almost worn away.
After finding a job in insurance and struggling to make a living, and having a goddess partner, he was full of confidence, trying to start a business and achieve a class jump.
He failed and his business was a mess.
He also succeeded and successfully jumped from the proletariat to the negative proletarian class.
He thought he was the son of destiny, but in fact he was a natural grandson.
Taking out Baijiang from his pocket, Liu Tianle lit the cigarette with an expressionless face. The smoke was lingering and his eye circles were slightly red. He didn't know if it was from the smoke.
In the video, the MV has changed again. Cao Xuan walked out of the basement, sold songs to others, went to the studio to perform as an extra, and after a day of hard work, he finally got two crumpled banknotes.
Holding money in his hand, Cao Xuan wandered in front of a braised meat shop for a long time. Finally, he reluctantly moved away from the roasted chicken and braised pork and bought a pack of the cheapest instant noodles.
Returning to the basement, he happily ate up all the noodles. Looking at the remaining soup, he took out another cold steamed bun and dipped it in.
Finally, after eating them all, Cao Xuan carefully put away the remaining half packet of condiments and sat on the bed, playing the piano and singing.
"People like me who are confused, people like me who are looking for
How many people have you seen who are doing nothing like me?
A vulgar person like me never likes to pretend to be serious
Why do I suddenly panic when I hear old songs?
…”
When Liu Tianle saw this scene, he suddenly felt some sympathy. In fact, when he was a child, he liked to eat instant noodles the most.
However, instant noodles were a good thing at that time, and a pack of Master Kong’s products cost 1 yuan. They were a rare luxury for rural children, and the adults at home would not buy them.
They can eat small brands from their hometown, which cost 50 cents a pack or three packs for 1 yuan. Occasionally, when adults are happy, or when they are sick, they can get what they want.
When Liu Tianle was a child, he had a wish that he could eat instant noodles until he was full. He would eat instant noodles three times a day.
However, when he could really do this, he couldn't find the feeling he had when he was a child.
Even because the economy has been poor in the past two years, he often eats instant noodles to satisfy his hunger, which makes him want to vomit when he sees instant noodles now.
From then on, he knew that growing up was not a good thing, just as he now understood that he was just an ordinary person among all living beings.
And when you understand these principles, it is often very painful.
"A person like me who refuses to be ordinary
how many people are there in the world
A weird person like me
Will anyone feel sorry for you?
…”
Liu Tianle smoked cigarettes one by one and listened to the song "Someone Like Me" over and over again. His eye circles were red and red, and his heart was throbbing with pain.
Finally, he closed Weibo and opened the QQ chat page that he had avoided before.
【Lele, are you there?】
[Lele, send me a message]
[Why didn’t you answer the phone when I called you?]
【Are you okay? I called the police】
【I'm in the magic city, where are you?】
[I know about the hotel, it’s not a big deal, we can face it together]
[I asked people if the items in your store would be worth something if I exchanged them for money. In the end, I owed about 200,000 yuan for miscellaneous items. I will graduate from graduate school next year, and a company in Magic City wanted to recruit me, with a monthly salary of 6,000 yuan.
, I mentioned 8,000 in half a year. If you find another job, you can earn 4,000 to 5,000. The two of us will be able to pay it back in two years...]
[We are still young, we can’t stay in the devil’s capital, the worst we can do is go back to our hometown]
[Liu Tianle, don’t pretend to be dead for me. You were so shameless about chasing me back then. Speak.]
【……】
Starting from three days ago, Wu Lanlan sent hundreds of messages, which made Liu Tianle cry and laugh, and finally lay on the keyboard and cried loudly.
Several people playing games next to him looked at him in surprise. The owner of the Internet cafe also pulled away from the TV plot and wiped away his tears because of Lu Su's death.
After clicking pause, the boss stood up and came to Liu Tianle's side, patted his shoulder and persuaded him gently.
"Brother, I've noticed something wrong with you these past two days. Have you been cheated on? I've been through this before. I'll give you a piece of advice. There's no obstacle in the world that you can't overcome. Good women these days can only be found in TV dramas..."
………
After the song "Someone Like Me" was posted on Weibo, in just twelve hours, it had 7 million views, 450,000 retweets, and 100,000+ comments.
[What a bad song, I cried like a dog in the morning]
[Good song, just Fei Yan]
[25 years old, unemployed, lovelorn, accomplishing nothing, dreams shattered, the most painful thing in the world is not that you are an ordinary person, but that you can only live as an ordinary person despite all your efforts]
[Four words, each word is heart-breaking]
[Everyone of us is like this, from being pretentious to accepting ourselves as ordinary]
[Facts have proved that the only one who can surpass Cao Xuan is Cao Xuan]
[Boss has many inspirational songs, but I prefer the ones that speak directly to the soul]
【This song is like a knife, peeling out the pain in people's hearts】
[The last song that made me cry was "Old Boy"]
[I went to watch the interview. This song is about Cao Xuan chatting with a young friend, learning about his confused situation, and then based on some of his thoughts when he was not famous, and finally wrote this song]
[It is worth mentioning that the clips in the MV are Cao Xuan’s own real experiences]
[In fact, regardless of the lyrics, if I go by my experience, this can be regarded as an inspirational song. Cao Xuan is as awesome as Cao Xuan, and he has also experienced a period of troughs and confusion]
[Yes, I’m afraid Cao Xuan, who used instant noodle soup to make steamed buns at that time, would never have imagined that he would achieve what he has today]
[Friends, somehow, I have regained my confidence]
[Hahaha, Cao Xuan was reluctant to buy instant noodles back then, but at least I could still eat meat every now and then.]
[The world is uncertain, you and I are both dark horses, go ahead, go ahead]
[A true man should survive in the midst of death and gain blessings from misfortunes]
【Ah ah ah, it's burning up】
[Uh, don’t believe it, that guy named Cao is cheating]
【……】
In just half a day, "Someone Like Me" reached the top of Weibo's hot searches, and had already topped the list of popular searches on QQ Star Music website.
However, this is just the beginning.
Starting from October 23, Cao Xuan fans and a large number of passerby fans carried out targeted blasts on radio stations, TV music columns, and online music platforms.
On October 23rd, the radio station announced that it had lost ground, and the on-demand chart was dominated by "Someone Like Me". The host of Jinmen Music Radio described Cao Xuan's fans as "the craziest experience in his career."
In response, Cao Xuan's fans said that the host's time on the job was too short.
In recent years, fans of Fanxing have become very gentle in charting. For "Human World" in 2007, there was no special organization of fans to promote it on a large scale.
Their real peak period was during the Stars Trilogy stage, when it was really about Buddha standing in the way of killing Buddha, and God standing in the way of killing God.
It seems crazy now, but in fact many fans have not participated in the war due to academic or family reasons, otherwise the craziness would have been several times greater.
On the morning of October 24, the TV station also announced the loss.
CCTV Music Channel even issued a statement on its official website, stating that the song request phone was being repaired due to a technical failure and that it would not accept song request services for the time being.
There have only been two times in history when the song was requested on the charts so much that the CCTV music channel gave in.
Well, I was also a fan of Cao Xuan last time. In 2000, when "Bright Stars" was on the charts, CCTV's related song request phone calls were bombarded with calls.
It was a real technical failure at that time. It is said that the phone was down and not working. It is still a legend on CCTV.
Now that the Internet is in full swing, the main battlefield of music charts is actually no longer radio and television.
This time, many old fans were used to playing on charts, so they took advantage of it, but soon focused on the online platform.
Needless to say, QQ Star main platform, Cao Xuan fans told the fans of the three giants of QQ Star with practical actions.
When your brothers and sisters are chasing stars, you still pee and mud!
Normally, it doesn't matter. Cao Xuan's fans are too lazy to get involved in the battles over the music industry. They even like to see old enemies like Xiao Zhou being beaten.
But at this time when Cao Xuan is releasing a song, they can no longer sit idly by. No matter who they are, giants or new stars, they had better give up their C position, otherwise they will not be blamed for bullying children.
One thing to say is that the fans of the three giants of QQ Star are very powerful and have high cohesion, otherwise they would not be able to suppress Xiao Zhou.
But then again, no matter how strong his fighting power is, Cao Xuan cannot withstand the huge number of fans, and the public fans and national fans are second to none among all singers.
Fighting and scolding may cause trouble, but if it is compared with voting, one person can drown other fans with just a spit of spit.
That group of Korean and Korean fans can be said to be the most difficult group of fans in the Internet entertainment industry, but they do not dare to offend Cao Xuan easily.
Otherwise, it will not only cause siege at home, but also cause a large number of Japanese, Korean, Xintai and other overseas fans to attack their idols, which is commonly known as copying their hometowns.
The three giants of QQ Star were defeated, and Cao Xuan's fans later took over various online music platforms.
Kuwo, Kugou, Jiuku, Sogou, Tingmusi.com, Pop Music.com, Qianqianjingting...
Every online music website has Cao Xuan's army of fans, and what's interesting is that "Someone Like Me" is the first release + exclusive on QQ Star.
In principle, other music websites do not have the copyright to this song.
Unable to cope with the popularity of this song, some small websites would pirate it and upload it in the name of the user, or simply change it to a similar name. If the rumours don't come out, they'll change it back, and if they don't, they'll take it off the shelves.
Even if it is caught, it is uploaded by users and has nothing to do with the website.
However, this can only be used by small websites. As long as it is not large-scale, QQ Star may not necessarily fight with it to the death. It can only be beaten occasionally.
But big websites like Kugou, which are also direct competitors of QQ Star, are closely watched. If they try this trick, they will get a lawyer's letter.
Therefore, KugouKu and other major websites do not have the song "People Like Me".
But Cao Xuan's fans, who were overjoyed, didn't care, and finally pushed a song called "People Like Me" to the top of the list, which made the heads of several platforms tremble with anger.
"Someone Like Me" topped all major charts and became extremely popular.
It even caused many netizens to imitate the lyrics and make various adaptations, forming "Like Me", which became a new popular culture.
In addition to its popularity, "Someone Like Me" also has a very good reputation. The QQ star comment area has almost become a collection and distribution center for stories and life insights, and some music critics have also given it high praise.
By the way, Xiao Zhou was pulled out and whipped. His new album in May, "Cross Era", was hailed as the worst album since his debut.
The album that was originally rated the best was "Fireworks Are Easy to Cold", but now it has been picked up by Cao Xuan. Although Xiao Zou added another Chinese-style song, the quality is actually inferior to "Fireworks Are Easy to Cold".
Life was difficult to begin with, but now that the first song of Cao Xuan's new album has received rave reviews, it has brought him a lot of pressure.
But Xiao Zhou is used to it.
Every time he performs well, the outside world and the media always use Cao Xuan to beat him and tell him not to be proud.
If he doesn't perform well, the outside world will use Cao Xuan to teach him a lesson, telling him that he must learn from Cao Xuan and study music with all his heart.
The most irritating thing is that it only matters whether he performs well or not. Every time Cao Xuan releases a new album, the media and the outside world have to give him a few words.
Unfortunately, he has a good temper and has a good personal relationship with Cao Xuan. Otherwise, if he didn't treat Cao Xuan as his inner demon, he wouldn't have a good impression.
By now, Xiao Zhou has long since laid down and accepted the reality. He is destined to live in Cao Xuan's shadow for the rest of his life...
