Chapter 167: Not even one person who can fight?

Chapter 167: No one can fight?
Perhaps it was because the traffic from the "fight" and "reconciliation" with An Luning was too huge.

When the song "Invisible Wings" was first released online, countless people clicked on it and started listening to it.

But, I felt it was weird just from listening to the prelude.

It's not that the style of the song is weird, it's mainly because it feels like a typical folk song.

It doesn't quite match Jiang Yuanchu's style.

When the style of the music doesn't match the singer, to put it nicely, it's called exploring more possibilities and seeking transformation.

To put it bluntly, it is seeking excitement and seeking death.

However, considering the name Bai Youlou, few fools dare to draw conclusions after just listening to the prelude.

No matter how incompatible it is, it ultimately depends on the specific quality of the song and how well Jiang Yuanchu sings it.

The interesting thing is that after listening to the song, various music critics are reluctant to give direct reviews.

Even some guys who have been criticizing idol singers' songs for a long time did not rush to show their sharp-tongued nature this time.

It's not an exaggeration to say that Jiang Yuanchu sings so well. Her voice is relatively clear and she did a pretty good job in singing "Invisible Wings". The main reason is that this song is not that difficult, at most there are some high notes that need to be mastered.

What those music critics are afraid of is Bai Youlou.

This guy is a big name in the film and television industry. If you get close to him, he will slap you in the face, maybe even several times in a row.

Don't talk nonsense if you are not sure enough. Although the probability of Bai Youlou seeing it and causing trouble is relatively low, it is not impossible.

If this "lunatic" had really noticed it, Wang Jiahua's situation would still be vivid in his mind.

Similarly, it is really hard to find fault with this song. Even if we don’t start from the song itself, Jiang Yuanchu as a person is not very good.

Having been an idol for so many years, Jiang Yuanchu's professional ability has always been top-notch in the circle.

Most of her songs are really not that good, they are mainly for stage effects.

But it doesn't mean she has no singing skills.

This girl has even studied more systematically than Zhang Xiaorong.
In terms of basic skills and techniques, she is better than Zhang Xiaorong.

This is her ultimate form as a perfect idol.

A true top player in terms of business capabilities.

Having said that, Bai Youlou even felt that this girl might be quite good at acting.

Although she had done terribly in her last audition, that was purely because Jiang Yuanchu had never acted before and she probably didn't know how to audition.

In summary, Jiang Yuanchu is the type of player who will madly delve into a certain skill as long as it is within her business scope, and will not give up until she feels there is no possibility of any improvement.

It was not without reason that Bai Youlou had commented on her before that she “preserved the principles of heaven and eliminated human desires.”

This little girl is so cruel!
So, do you really think this girl can only jump around on the stage?

"Every time I am strong in the wandering loneliness"

“Even though I was hurt, I never cried.”

"I know I have always had a pair of invisible wings"

"Take me fly over despair"

"."

"This song is so beautiful!" commented An Luning.

However, her praise of the song had other meanings, and soon her face wrinkled, "Why is the song written for her so childish, and the one for me so childish?"

"'Bugs Are Flying' is not childish, baby. Director Bai put his heart into the song he wrote for you."

After some persuasion from Sister Hong, she was finally happy.

But An Lu Ning was a little curious, "Is Jiang Yuanchu going to change her ways? I saw her singing and dancing on the stage before."

"Probably not. I asked around and found out that most of them are dance music."

"Sister, how did you know?" An Luning asked curiously.

Sister Hong smiled but did not answer.

Of course she has her own way.
It was not certain how long the "battle" between An Luning and Jiang Yuanchu would last, so of course she had to understand her opponent from all aspects.

To put it bluntly, if the "battle" had continued until now, she might have to find a way to "snipe" this song.

But fortunately not!
On the first day of its release, "Invisible Wings" directly topped the music software rankings.

Of course, this doesn’t really mean anything. Jiang Yuanchu is so popular that even if she released a song called “Tears Behind Bars” she would still be ranked number one.

But even though fans can boost the popularity in the beginning, it is impossible to maintain it forever.

This is also a common problem for many traffic stars.

The songs released are purely for the fans' internal entertainment, and few passers-by will listen to them.

But this time, obviously not!
Dominate the charts, dominate the charts, and dominate the charts!
The song "Invisible Wings" spread rapidly at an extremely exaggerated speed, and also firmly nailed Jiang Yuanchu's name to the top of a statistical list called "Singer Power List".

This thing can be seen as a comprehensive reflection of the popularity of a singer and his or her works on various platforms.

It’s hard to say whether it’s accurate or not, but it has always been relatively consistent with everyone’s expectations, and it can reflect the current trends and the popularity of the singers.

Then this time it was questioned.

When the name of a well-known idol is placed above a group of powerful big-name singers, one has to question the accuracy of such a list.

However, the people who make the list are no pushovers and have thrown out a lot of data.

What music software is collected and clicked; short video usage rate; search engine.
Then they offered an analogy.

The last guy who achieved this level was Bai Youlou, and his song at that time was called "The Lone Brave Man".

To what extent does a song become a true national hit?

As soon as the song starts, everyone can hum along.

This level of popularity is what it means to be truly famous.

Bai Youlou suffered a disadvantage because he was still a director. The noise and presence he made in the film industry were so strong that his achievements in music were overshadowed for a time.

The song is so popular that even primary school students can sing along.

The song "Invisible Wings" can also achieve this level.

When it comes to pop music, the most important thing is the word “popular”.

As time went by, this song gradually went from being a carnival among online fans to being popular on the streets.

You can hear this song playing in shopping malls and eating barbecue. You can hear it at least five times a day when you go out.
This is the impression many people have of the song “Invisible Wings”.

To put it bluntly, my ears are getting calluses from listening to so much code, I'm tired of it.

As the saying goes, the best way to "ruin" a song is to set it as your alarm.

It won't be long before you feel physically uncomfortable whenever you hear this song, no matter how popular it is.

Another way is that it is just too popular!

Many people who prefer niche music and don’t like popular music enjoy the unique feeling of niche music that “not many people listen to”.

To put it bluntly, it's just pretending~
So when some "unpopular" songs suddenly become popular one day, some of their original fans will "wail": my treasure song has finally been discovered.

The singers who saw this didn’t know whether to cry or laugh.

Any singer who records a song hopes that more people will hear it and like it.

Instead of always being "unpopular".

Fortunately, Jiang Yuanchu’s fans are not “unpopular” at all, they are very happy!
"Wow! Xiao Yuan's song has become popular! Our school radio plays this song every day. I'm so happy!"

"Go big on Xiao Yuan! I'm really looking forward to what the whole album will be like. Will Xiao Yuan completely change her style? I love her stage performances and I want to continue dancing in the future!"

“Yes, yes. The studio’s Weibo has already said that this album has made some breakthroughs while retaining the original personal characteristics. I wonder how good Mr. Bai is at writing dance music~”

"Bai Youlou? I'm just going to praise him! Don't forget, he was an idol himself, how could he not write dance music? He's also a great dancer~"

".The above person touched my sore spot. I used to be Bai Youlou's fan. I really liked his looks and loved watching him dance. Now I can only watch his old videos."

"It's surprising that he can still produce music now that he is Mr. Bai and Director Bai. I thought he would focus on making movies~"

"I watched Before Sunrise for the third time. Thank you Bai Youlou!"

"Don't go watch Before Sunrise. Wait until The Dreamers comes out before going to 'repay' Bai Youlou. I don't want to help An Luning's movie at the box office. The heroine of The Dreamers is Liu Manli, who is Xiao Yuan's boss and good sister. I'm willing to help her at the box office!"

"."

The power of the song "Invisible Wings" once again made everyone realize how outrageous Bai Youlou is.

The team that has the most experience is Jiang Yuanchu's own team.

Huh? Is it that simple?!

The song became popular just by releasing it randomly. Before we had time to arrange a large amount of publicity.
I originally planned to observe for a few days to see the online feedback and popularity.

As I observed for a while, it seemed that they didn't need to do anything anymore.

As an artist team, they are still feeling quite conflicted.

On the one hand, everyone was indeed very happy because Jiang Yuanchu was doing well and the team's salaries and bonuses were also rising.

But on the other hand, they gathered their strength and were ready to exert their might, but before they even threw a punch, their "opponents" fell down.

No one who can fight?
Fortunately, complex emotions are all revealed through comparison. Overall, although Jiang Yuanchu’s team feels very complex and a little difficult to describe, they are still happy after all.

Just think of it as being led by Bai Youlou once, thank you Teacher Bai~
But the complexities in other people’s hearts are really uncomfortable.

The singers who released songs at the same time are feeling very sad!

Originally, people would not be too wary or concerned about super popular idol contestants like Jiang Yuanchu.

Everyone knows the situation of these traffic idols. They will only jump around for a few days and then have fun within the fan circle and that’s it.

Even if the data is made to look good, everyone knows what is going on.

Even being unworthy of one's position will lead to public ridicule.

But this time it was different. No one dared to say that Jiang Yuanchu was unworthy of his position.

Even if it was to attract attention, she didn't dare to do so, because Bai Youlou was standing behind her.

Bai Youlou is not a big shot, nor is he a big shot in the industry who can ban anyone with a single word, at least not yet. But if you provoke him, the outcome may not be much better than if you provoke a big shot.

It might be even worse.

Many predecessors have already given demonstrations, and for the time being, no one is really stubborn enough to want to be the next "challenger".

Why not give the pressure to the Golden Melody Awards?
Life is like that. Since you can't resist it, you might as well lie down and enjoy it.

Many singers just want to watch the fun and see what the rules of this year's Golden Melody Awards will be like.

Although in the eyes of many media and netizens, Bai Youlou is definitely a hot favorite for this year's Golden Melody Awards.

In fact, this is indeed the case.

But~
Being a hot favorite doesn't mean you'll actually win the award.

This kind of thing has happened at the Golden Melody Awards before, or in other words, whether it is a film or music award, there are many such operations.

First, there are very few prizes that are willing to make one person the super-big winner.

Just like what Deng Bo said: A community cannot allow one person to dominate, it needs to be balanced.

To put it nicely, awards are a competition and a selection process; to put it bluntly, they are just dividing the pie.

Even in Cannes and Berlin, where Bai Youlou had been before, there was this situation. If you look at the awards, there are several from Europe, several from Hollywood, and several from Asia. Hey~ it's actually really balanced!

Even the three major European awards are not immune to vulgarity, let alone awards whose influence is limited to domestic areas.

All I can say is that the greater the influence and fame of an award, the more cautious one will be in these aspects. After all, the value of the award is very important, and it cannot be too outrageous. Otherwise, it will damage one's reputation if it is criticized.

There have been rumors before that the Golden Melody Awards wanted to make Bai Youlou, who was very popular last year, the "uncrowned king".

The so-called uncrowned king is not a nice word to brag about how awesome he is.

I just want him to not win any big prize and be a runner-up the whole time.

And it’s not just this year that I’ll be a runner-up, it will be the same next year.

What are the benefits of doing this?

Really!
Create a topic!
Similar to how Leo could not win an Oscar for many years, by hyping up a topic like this, the Golden Melody Awards can always gain popularity every year.

Netizens also pay attention to Bai Youlou every year. When were you the best in Tianjin?
To be honest, this kind of hype is not impossible. If Bai Youlou is willing, he can do this every year with the Golden Melody Awards.

They hype each other up and create a lot of heat.

Three years after three years, and three years after three years, the audience was so excited that he became the real uncrowned king.

But the question is, will it work?

This kind of game definitely cannot be played by everyone sitting down to discuss and then signing a contract.

We can only rely on tacit understanding.

Some people just want to win an award to prove themselves, to increase their qualifications, and to have an easier time in the circle.

At the same time, it has also been recognized by the popular circles.

The question is, is Bai Youlou, a "troublemaker", willing to cooperate?
"The so-called rumors might have been released by the Golden Melody Awards organizers themselves in order to test your attitude." Jiang Yuanchu actively helped Bai Youlou analyze the situation.

Bai Youlou was a little surprised, "You haven't won a Golden Melody Award, but you know so much~"

Even though there were other people around at the moment, Jiang Yuanchu couldn't hold back for a moment when he heard this.

She still spends too little time with Bai Youlou.
In other words, after Bai Youlou turned into a zombie, she never had much of a heart-to-heart with him.

After all, every time we meet, we just chat and don't have time to talk about our true feelings.

Is this guy talking so irritatingly now?

It was as if the rich guy was worried about what sports car to buy, and the poor guy helped him analyze the pros and cons. Finally, the rich guy said with emotion: "Although you are poor and can't afford it, you know so much!"

This is how Jiang Yuanchu feels now.

Fortunately, she has been able to manage her facial expressions very well for a long time, so she only showed a slight "speechless" expression on her face, and quickly retracted it.

Just pretend you didn't hear Bai Youlou's nonsense. "It's hard to say whether you can win an award this year, and which award you can win, but the popularity of "Invisible Wings" will definitely put pressure on the Golden Melody Awards. From last year to now, your songs have been too popular, and it's not just you who sings them. They have to take this into consideration."

Jiang Yuanchu paused and added, "Not winning the Golden Melody Award is not your loss, it's their loss!"

When she said this, the look in her eyes was different from usual.

There seems to be light!

In order to prevent this girl from really "falling in love with him", Bai Youlou quickly replied: "Then we can talk about this business."

"Business?"

"Yes, I can go this year and not take the award myself, but... they have to give me the award indirectly."

"Sideways? What does that mean?" Jiang Yuanchu was confused at first, but soon realized, "Zhang Xiaorong?"

Bai Youlou nodded, "Not only that, there is also Long Ziqiang."

Jiang Yuanchu's eyes were a little complicated, "Don't you want to take the award yourself?"

"I just thought about it. I don't seem to be particularly interested in the Golden Melody Awards. The influence is still a little small. I can't get excited. If it's the Grammy Awards, I think I will be more motivated."

Grammy

Jiang Yuanchu did not find it exaggerated or unbelievable, but rather seemed to be thinking about something.

Because Bai Youlou has written English songs.

Let me put it this way, although she has never mentioned it, Jiang Yuanchu has listened to all of Bai Youlou's songs. No matter whether he sang them or not, as long as they were sung by him, she has probably listened to each of them no less than ten times.

Including a small number of English songs.

Although she has never won a Golden Melody Award and has not received any awards in music, Jiang Yuanchu's aesthetic taste is still top-notch.

She thought Bai Youlou was bragging, and hadn't he created enough "miracles" to get to where he is now?

He has won two of the three major European awards, so winning foreign awards is not a difficult task for him.

Who knows, maybe one day she'll make it to the Grammy Awards.

Unfortunately, his songs don't seem to have made it to the charts overseas.
So unprofessional!
Before she could give any guidance in this regard, Wu Muqun, wearing a hat, ran over happily, "Brother Lou, how was your rest? Shall we start filming?"

"You're the director, you have the final say, why the hell are you asking me?"

"Uh, then the shooting will start in five minutes!"

"You are the director, you have to coordinate the overall situation, not just the filming. Jiang Yuanchu is sitting here, why don't you ask her?"

"Uh"

Xiao Wu feels miserable. Does his word count?

But he could understand Bai Youlou's meaning. He was not making fun of him, but really teaching him.
It’s just that this “teaching” method is really fucked up.

Xiao Wu felt like a piece of cuckold, being played around by Bai Youlou's pole.

I don't know when my brother Lou will change his bad taste.
I'm filming a music video for Kang Won-chul today, and I'm on location right now.

In fact, Bai Youlou didn't have to do any work, he was just here to watch.

After all, this is the first time that Wu Mugun has been a director himself, so he has to keep an eye on things so that he can scold and correct people in time.

"Director Wu, I can start shooting anytime, just follow your pace."

"You're welcome, Miss Jiang."

The difference between this person and others~
The girls around Bai Youlou are all more beautiful, kind and polite than the other.

And what about Bai Youlou himself?
He just stole Xiaowu's lighter again.

This was the first time in his life that he was in charge of a crew. Although it was just a MV crew, it was also a first for Xiao Wu.

It's a bit stressful.

Most of them were given by Bai Youlou.

When he does a good job, no one will praise him, but when he does a bad job, people will definitely be sarcastic.

However, after knowing this, Long Ziqiang said disdainfully: "Come on, he is gentle to you, you don't know how he 'trained' me."

So, we still have to rely on comparison!
After learning how Bai Youlou threw a chair at Long Ziqiang when he first acted, almost causing him to have psychological problems, Xiao Wu really felt that Brother Lou was quite "gentle" towards him.

Of course, it may be because he really did a good job.

Most of the MVs that Jiang Yuanchu is going to shoot are based on dancing. Xiao Wu has no pressure at all to shoot that kind of MVs. Instead, they are mainly based on Jiang Yuanchu and the dance troupe she has been working with for a long time.

The kind of plot MV that is like a micro-movie is where Xiao Wu is in control of the overall situation.

What’s more, the shooting of this thing is too simple, with lower requirements than TV dramas and web dramas, and basically no high requirements for acting skills.

As long as the man is handsome and the woman is pretty, that's enough.

Jiang Yuanchu is definitely very pretty. There are few girls in the entertainment industry who are prettier than her.

But because of this, it is not easy to find a male lead.

Xiao Wu looked at several male models with good looks and temperament who were contacted by Mo Qiuling before for a long time, but finally shook his head and thought they were not good enough.

Then he naturally looked towards Bai Youlou
"Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu~you are such a genius!" Bai Youlou said speechlessly.

"Ah? What's wrong?"

"The money they gave was just for producing an album, but it didn't include my salary as the leading actor."

Bai Youlou really wanted to remind this guy that if he had the ability to get something for nothing, it would be better to keep it to the outside world.

Even if you want to be a cyber succubus, you can't just focus on your own people!
"I'll give it to you!" Jiang Yuanchu suddenly showed up at this time, showing her true colors as a rich woman.

"Are you really going to give it to me? Classmate Jiang, I'm very expensive." Bai Youlou joked.

Jiang Yuanchu was not to be outdone: "I have money."

Bai Youlou: ???

Why does it feel like she is cosplaying An Lu Ning?
The way these two girls say they are rich is really similar.

Of course, Jiang Yuanchu is really rich! She is ranked at the top of the Forbes celebrity list every year. It is no joke that she is the top female artist in terms of money-making ability.
-
I was stuck in a writer's block these past two days, and I'm really sorry about that, but now I feel like I've almost recovered and I've found the feeling to write.

High power output will be restored starting tomorrow!

If I can't do it, I'll cut it myself!
