Penguin Music Headquarters.

Li Yunrun sat in the artist's room, looking at the data on the Internet.

To be honest, when the first title song was released, he didn't take flower particles seriously.

After all, whether it is fame or singing skills, the latter is far inferior to himself.

Although Lin Bao stands behind her, as long as Lin Bao does not write the lyrics and music, then she is confident that she can surpass the other party in terms of the quality of her works and personal strength.

Even if the quality of the final songs of the two sides is comparable, with the help of Penguin Music's resources, they will definitely overpower each other in one fell swoop.

Not only him, but even the head of Penguin Music thinks the same way.

But this week, "Walking Horse", which originally seemed to be on par with his own "Blossoming Cloud Exhibition", has counterattacked all the way. Not only on the Philharmonic and several other platforms, but even on his home camp, Penguin Music, without any publicity, he entered the top ten of the hot song list.

Although, the ranking of "Walking Horses" on the hot song list is still a few places behind his own "Blossoming Cloud Exhibition".

However, there is no doubt that this time the confrontation of the first title song was defeated.

Li Yunrun was a little puzzled.

He has also listened to "Walking Horses" repeatedly before, and in terms of song quality, it is actually not much different from his own song?

If it is the light of the style of the new folk song, then it is impossible to exaggerate the results like this, right?

And the words of some independent music critics on the Internet also made him a little confused.

In terms of singing skills, I am no worse than flower particles, when it comes to style fusion, flower particles are folk style, and my interpretation of this song has also been recognized by professional teachers.

At this time, the door opened, and the agent with black-rimmed glasses walked in.

"Brother Cong. ”

Li Yunrun raised his head and said.

"Well, I chatted with Mr. Feng just now, and the results of the first title song are very good, and the bosses are also very recognized. ”

The agent patted him on the shoulder, "Tomorrow the second title song will be released, and you will be arranged to ......"

Li Yunrun suddenly said: "Brother Cong, is the result of "Blossoming Cloud Exhibition" really good?"

The agent looked at him: "Of course...... What's the matter?

Li Yunrun shook his head.

In fact, as usual, the results of the first title song "Blossoming Cloud Exhibition" are already very good.

In less than half a week, Penguin ranked first on the hot list, the popularity and reputation are good, there are no slots, for him as an artist who debuted as a trainee, it is already a very big success, and it is even worth celebrating.

But there was a comparison of "Walking Horses" with flower particles next to him, and he felt like a fish in his throat, which was very uncomfortable.

The agent also knew what he was thinking.

For this matter, not only them, but even the penguins felt very uncomfortable.

But there is no way, even if they have overestimated the opponent enough in advance and prepared sufficient plans, but the opponent's performance is still beyond their expectations.

Whether it is the quality of "Walking Horses" or the performance of flower particles, it can be said to be very amazing.

In addition, in the past six months, Lin Bao has accumulated popularity for the Philharmonic, for his own studio, and for the style of music of new folk songs, which has contributed to the fact that this new song not only broke through the kind of public opinion created at the beginning, but also reaped the popularity of fans on the whole network in one fell swoop.

However, for them, there is never a way out by staying in the past failures.

"Don't worry, the song "Walking Horses" has been stained with relevant clips that have been released before, coupled with the live broadcast marketing of Lin Bao Studio, so it can burst out with such great potential in a short period of time. But the follow-up, that's it. The quality of the song "Blossoming Clouds" is not worse than it, but because it is pop music, it is not as popular as the current new folk songs, but believe me, a really good song can stand the polish of time. ”

The agent walked up to him.

"Really?"

Li Yunrun looked at him.

"And how do you explain this time?"

The agent smiled, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "The most important thing for us now is the second title song and the promotion of the album in a week...... You don't want to tell you that you're crushed just because of the temporary setback of the first song, right?"

"No, no, Brother Cong. ”

Li Yunrun said busily.

"It's good if you don't have it, cheer up!"

The agent straightened up and handed him the folder in his hand, "Tomorrow at nine o'clock, "Floating Clouds Scattered" will be released, and in the afternoon, you will be on "Saturday Storm Show", which is a live broadcast." In the script here, there will be detailed dialogue content, you should memorize it well, and don't make mistakes when the time comes. ”

"Don't worry, Brother Cong!"

Li Yunrun nodded.

"Come on!"

The agent tapped him on the shoulder, then turned to go out.

In the room, Li Yunrun was in a daze for a while holding the folder, then came back to his senses and began to look at the script in the folder.

......

At nine o'clock the next day, a striking banner was pulled out on the homepage of Penguin Music, and the second title song of Li Yunrun's "Cloud" album, "Floating Clouds" was officially released.

But at the same time, Flower Particle's new song "Ideal Lent" was also uploaded to his original musician account in a low-key manner without any publicity.

To everyone's surprise on the homepage of the Philharmonic app, on the first line of banners, it was written ""Ideal Lent" PK "Floating Clouds", and the PK background of the two characters in the King of Fighters "Kusanagi Kyo" and "Athena Asamiya" was playfully added......

Looking at this promotional picture, Xiaoli couldn't help but shake her head a little.

I'm afraid that on this "non-mainstream" road, there will be no turning back.

She clicked in, and in the middle of the page, the two songs were juxtaposed, both of which could be played.

Below, there are two ballot boxes, and each platform user can vote for one of the songs.

Xiaoli ignored the low-end ballot box setting, but directly clicked on the song "Ideal Thirty" by Hua Particles, and began to listen.

"After the rain, a car came, driving through the twilight pale, the old tin sheet drove south, the lover was no longer there, listening to the smoke, poetry radio ......"

is still a new folk style, and in terms of rhythm, it is faster than the previous "Walking Horse".

In addition to acoustic guitar and drum sounds, there are also more electric guitars and electronic percussion sound effects in it.

The lyrics, like "Walking Horses", are more charming, even more beautiful than "Walking Horses", and they seem to be telling a love story.

But in the same way, these two songs of Flower Particles seem to be written love stories, but more likely they still want to express some thoughts about life, especially in the songs, for love, for the freedom of the past, and the expression of popular love songs in the past, which is completely different.

The title of the song "Ideal Thirty" is also very literate, ideal thirty, from teenagers, to twenties, and then to thirties, from youth to maturity, writing a person's growth.

"Just grow old, don't wake up alone, you long to leave, but there is nowhere to stop. Just sing, eyes narrowed, and the collapse of tears is just a presence that has not arrived......"

The whole song, there is no obvious distinction between the main and the ref, but it is very smooth and comfortable to listen to.

Hua Particle once again used her unique singing method to fully interpret the feelings of the new folk song.

"It's another classic song from a folk point of view......"

Xiaoli commented.

From "Walking Horses" to "Ideal Lent", the lyrics and interpretations of flower particles are all unique.

The reason why it is said from the perspective of folk songs is because, compared with Xu Fan's "Chengdu", the two title songs released by Flower Particle do not seem to have specific musical intentions to very real concreteness.

It captures the empathy of the ballad, but it lacks concreteness.

This point was also said by Lin Bao when he talked about his understanding of new folk songs in the live broadcast class before.

In addition to the melody, there is also a very important point for a piece of music to be popular, that is, it must have elements that can be remembered all the time.

"Chengdu", the most iconic element in it, is the city of Chengdu and the streets and alleys.

"Blue Lotus" has a concrete image of the blue lotus itself, and it is also a virtual Zen concrete image.

"Youth", the "juvenile" element in it, is an important reason for triggering the tide of national memories.

In "Walking Horses" and "Ideal Lent", this specific concrete image is obviously missing.

Perhaps, this is Hua Particle's own music style, female folk style, but compared with "Walking Horse" and "Chengdu", it is obvious that the latter is still more successful. Moreover, in terms of audience, it is also very advantageous.

Of course, although there are such shortcomings, or different styles, the two songs of Flower Particles, including this one "Ideal Lent", are already considered high-quality folk songs.

I voted directly in the "Ideal Lenten Money" ballot box below.

Then, click on Li Yunrun's "Floating Clouds".

"If life is just as first seen, only hatred is already in the past, this love can be waited for has become nostalgia, and only lonely nights are left to sleep......"

Just like the title of the song, this is an old-fashioned song.

Although it is still a popular tune, in terms of singing, it is very different from the previous "Blossoming Cloud Exhibition", and there is a more "Qingling" tune.

This was a bit of a surprise to Xiaoli.

Unexpectedly, a trainee like Li Yunrun, with an ordinary voice, could sing this kind of voice.

The whole song, although it is popular in tune and has not changed, but the kind of "Qingling" flavor that is like nothing makes Xiaoli think of Dai Qian at once.

When he participated in the "Song Night" before, Dai Qian integrated the tone of the opera into his own singing.

This Li Yunrun has never studied opera, but this song has some imitations.

Although it is not professional, compared with the previous "Blossoming Cloud Exhibition", the singing method of this "Floating Clouds" is even more surprising.

Even, frankly speaking, "Floating Clouds" is more unexpected than "Ideal Lent".

If you have to talk about the degree of innovation voting, Xiaoli will definitely vote for "Floating Clouds".

However, who made this Philharmonic Cloud Music, of course, brainless cast "Ideal Lent"!

The rest of the audience basically felt the same way as Xiaoli.

"Ideal Lent" continues many elements of "Walking Horse", and in terms of style, it is also more fixed.

It's also a very likable ballad.

However, Li Yunrun's "Floating Clouds" is also unexpected. Regardless of whether this is the reason for the arrangement or his own attempt, in short, this second title song, even if it is an independent music critic, did not deliberately lower the score as he did with "Blossoming Cloud Exhibition" before.

In the next week, it was the daily competition of two songs.

There is also heat, and the same quality is very passable, even solid.

On various platforms, the rankings of the two songs have risen, which is also very similar to the previous week.

As of Friday night, on the Philharmonic's side, in the voting area, "Ideal Lent" won overwhelmingly over "Floating Clouds".

This is also expected by everyone.

However, on the hot song list, the two songs are basically comparable, "Ideal Lent" is the first, and "Floating Clouds" is second, but the popularity value is not too different.

In terms of penguin music, "Floating Clouds" naturally surpasses "Ideal Lent" in all aspects.

"Ideal Thirty" was on the new song list, soaring list, and hot song list, but on the last day, the ranking update only surpassed the previous "Walking Horse", and it was not too obvious to improve.

From this point of view, in fact, in terms of popularity this time, "Floating Clouds" and "Ideal Lent" are almost comparable, and even the former is even more than the latter.

Moreover, from the perspective of music criticism, just like the last "Walking Horse" vs. "Blossoming Clouds", the change in style of "Floating Clouds" is more popular with music critics and listeners.

In other words, the competition for the second title song, "Floating Clouds" is even better.

For this result, the flower particles themselves are naturally a little regretful.

However, it was also expected.

When the title song was set, Zheng Rong talked to her about it many times.

The two songs "Walking Horse" and "Ideal Lent" are somewhat similar in style and content. Although they are all good songs, the other two songs, or one, in the change album, have relatively good debut highlights.

However, in the end, I insisted on choosing these two songs.

"Peace of mind, wait for the official release of the album tomorrow. ”

For this small loss, neither Lin Bao nor Zheng Rong showed any disappointment.

And the flower particles that followed their rhythm gradually began to cultivate some calm attitudes.

After looking at it, it was almost a little bit, and she wasn't going to stay up late, so she turned off her phone and went to sleep.

At the same time, in the penguin music artist's room, Li Yunrun was naturally very excited to see that his second title song had received praise in the music critics' circle, and the "Ideal Lent" was pressed in all aspects.

The previous defeat of "Blossoming Clouds" almost made him lose confidence in himself.

Now it seems that it is just a matter of style and degree of innovation.

The new folk song of the female voice of the flower particle is good, but two songs in a row are a bit homogeneous.

And his own song, a bit borrowed from the previous competition, Dai Qian's singing style of "Floating Clouds Scattered", which was on the same stage as himself, is naturally more advantageous in terms of innovation.

Now, with the two title songs, each side wins.

The next step is the release of the entire album.

Whether it is his own "Cloud" or "The Ballad of Snow Flowers" by Flower Particles, the other songs in the two albums are not used as title songs, and they are definitely inferior to the first two title songs in terms of natural quality.

Therefore, it doesn't matter if the good or bad comparisons are made later.

And now, the music reviews on the entire Internet, along with the second song, are just the time to favor themselves. Continuing until tomorrow's album release, the advantages are naturally great for yourself!

Li Yunrun couldn't help but wave his fist: "Yes, AM...... Ah no, "Clouds"!"
