In a way, it's easy to rest on your laurels with anything in this world.

Without external stimuli, all evolutionary progress will be difficult.

Specifically in terms of culture and art, it is precisely because of hundreds of years of national wars and foreign invasions, as well as the cultural collision between life and death of various ethnic groups, that there is the colorful poetry of the Tang Dynasty, and it is precisely because of the emergence and development of capitalism and the emergence of a large number of citizens that there is the European Renaissance.

There is no shortage of geniuses in any era, but without that little external stimulation and change, countless geniuses will be lost in the slow evolution of self-containedness and will not be known.

Take the domestic music scene of the time and space that Li Qian once experienced.

In the past, when people listened to the rising sun in the east, they all thought it was very good, and they also thought it was really good-looking when they watched the mine warfare tunnel warfare, but later, Teresa Teng's voice came, and the young man wore bell bottoms and sunglasses, and then later, everyone saw "The Man from the Bottom of the Atlantic" on TV, saw "Shanghai Beach", and saw "Huo Yuanjia" , and then I also heard a lot of urban love songs from Hong Kong and Taiwan, so, after experiencing the comprehensive capture of Hong Kong and Taiwan singers, a singer named Fan Linlin appeared in the domestic music scene, she used her northwest wind to sweep away the softness of Hong Kong and Taiwan, so there was a person named Gu Jianfen who founded a vocal training center under extremely difficult conditions, and since then, the Chinese music scene has begun to have another unrestrained voice.

Thirty years later, if it weren't for the arrival of the voices of Hong Kong and Taiwan singers, who would dare to say that domestic pop music could have developed to the level of a hundred flowers blooming in the 21st century?

And in this time and space where Li Qian is now, after his careful observation for more than half a year. To tell the truth, if you compare with the same era, the economy of this time and space is much more developed than the economy of the time and space he has experienced in 9596, but I don't know if it is because of the lack of Hong Kong and Taiwan music stimulation of the same culture. In the 95 years of this time and space, the mainstream of domestic pop music is still folk songs and ballads, and even urban love songs that should have become more and more prosperous with the economic development and urban prosperity are hardly said to be successful.

Although the government does not restrict record companies from importing foreign music records, they only need to pass the censorship. It can be sold on the shelves in China, but all kinds of domestic propaganda channels, including radio, television, newspapers and magazines, are all in the hands of the government, and they obviously will not be used for foreign music.

There is a lack of strong propaganda. Although there are still people who listen to foreign music, to be honest, there are too few of these people in the whole society, but they are a drop in the ocean, and it is impossible to affect anything at all.

Therefore, in such an environment, Chinese music follows its own inherent tones. Moving forward step by step, although occasionally some welcome changes are made, it is easy to drown in the huge inertia of the whole society. to tend to oblivion oblivion.

Maybe...... Li Qian once imagined that if there was no one else to bring some stimulation and changes to the domestic music scene, perhaps it would really have to wait until the advent of the Internet era, with the great convenience of communication, and with the invasion of foreign culture, the domestic Chinese music scene would really be forced by fans to make some changes?

He didn't know. There is no way to guess.

At least in 1995 and 1996 now, apparently. Although the computer technology in this time and space seems to be much more developed than in the original time and space, the process of Internet is also much faster. But it is clear that there are still many years to go before the whole people can access the Internet.

But by the way, Li Qian came.

As early as when Liao Liao's five songs became popular, Li Qian couldn't help but think, perhaps, whether intentionally or unintentionally, these outstanding works he brought from another time and space would play a role as a catalyst?

Fortunately, Liao Liao is red!

Whether it is the soft rock love songs of "Persistence" and "Wild Flowers", or the Chinese style of "Unfinished Love", or the pure northwest folk songs of "My Hometown of Love", they have won the recognition of domestic fans in this time and space.

So, Li Qian resolutely signed a producer contract with Hua Opera.

He would rather take out a song like "Farewell", which he can't hold with the singing skills of the girls in the Five Elements and Wusu, to suppress them for them, and to push the fast song to this time, space and this era.

He worked hard to shape those five girls into the national idols of the domestic music scene in this time and space!

If these works from another time and space can really become an exciting agent for the current domestic music scene to begin to accelerate its evolution, then even if it is inevitable that there will be a lot of voices from all sides, Li Qian is not afraid.

As a musician, as a person who loves music, he is eager to see and know what kind of music works these outstanding musicians and would-be musicians in the current domestic music scene will come up with under the stimulation when faced with such a mature commercial music invasion!

Perhaps, that's the greatest significance of his rebirth in this plane, isn't it?

…………

On the first day of 1996, the famous popular singer Liao Liao visited Li Qian's parents in Jinan Mansion in a very low-key manner, and stayed at home for lunch under the warm hospitality of Li's father and mother.

And this matter, except for a certain impact within the Shengshi Garden Community, as well as in a few nearby schools, is almost unknown.

But just when Liao Liao followed Li Qian to visit Li's father and mother in a low-key manner, and then stayed at home for lunch, something that was destined to shake the domestic music scene and even destined to be recorded in the history of domestic music appeared.

On the morning of that day, I don't know how many people -- teenage students, young people in their mid-twenties, and, of course, many middle-aged people who were already in their thirties and forties -- were resting during the New Year's holiday. They went to the video store they usually go to, took out their wallets, and bought a box of albums called "Sister Sister Stand Up".

Although they didn't know anything about the song or the people who sang it more than a dozen hours ago.

But. They're coming.

Some people will ask, is there an album of the Five Elements? This is easy to find.

Some people will also ask, is there a song "Sister Sister Stand Up" stand up? This is also very easy to do.

But some people will ask, is there a song called "Farewell"? is it the one sung by five girls, do you know which album it is in?

At first, most salespeople are a little confused. But soon they learned that everyone was asking about the same album!

In the two days when the album "Sister Sister Stand Up" had just been released nationwide, distribution companies across the country were desperately sending goods to various stores, because according to the rules, if it couldn't sell or didn't sell well. As long as you don't open the package, you can return it within a month, and the usual habit is to sell it first and then give money, so although countless video stores don't like this mass-distributed album, most of them still accept it.

It's just that, except for one that will be taken out and put on the shelves, the rest will be thrown into the warehouse, and even many stores are not willing to open a box of trial broadcasts - if they open the package, they will have to give money.

And in fact. This new album of Wuxing Wusu has neither the fame of the past, nor the support of die-hard fans, nor even any publicity work at the time. The only thing that can be regarded as propaganda is that a large number of promotional posters are printed and distributed free of charge to various large and small video stores, and most of them are directly stuffed into warehouses by video stores. Therefore, before Dragon Star TV's New Year's Day New Year's Eve song was broadcast, this album did have few sales.

On December 26, the album was officially released nationwide. In just two or three days, more than 1.6 million copies of Hua Ge were distributed all over the country -- according to the sales results estimated by the publicity and distribution department. In total, they have produced a total of 2 million tapes and 400,000 CDs, and hope to sell them out within a year.

It's just that. Considering that Liao Liao's album was out of stock when it was sold, which affected the final sales results, Hua Singing finally decided to adopt a sales strategy of spreading out most of the goods and letting the stores sell slowly.

As it turned out, this strategy helped them a lot!

The New Year's Day holiday, the national holiday, but it is the busiest time for business in the service industry, no one will be stupid enough to close the store on this day, and the same is true for video stores.

So, when the video store opened, when the first person started to come in and ask, when the second person came in to ask, when many people started to come in and ask, from the ordinary salesperson to the boss, everyone was very quickly alarmed.

As a result, the tapes and CDs that had been thrown into the warehouse to be returned were quickly taken out.

At the same time, almost all the video stores on the street noticed something unusual, so almost all the video stores began to put the same cassette tape and the same CD in their players!

On this day, from the snowy northeast, to the drizzling Lingnan, from the capital of the country, to the south of Kun Ming Mansion of Caiyun, the voice of "ten men seven stupid, eight stupid, nine bad, and one is the most lovely" sang all over the streets and alleys of the north and south of the river.

It can be said that as long as you take to the streets on this day, whether it is a bustling metropolis or a small county town that is a little behind, basically, you will definitely be directly brainwashed by this song.

On this day, a number of staff members sent out by Hua Record returned to the company after a street survey, and almost unanimously believed that the company should immediately raise its sales estimate rating.

It was also on this day that the Wuxing Wusu group, which was stranded in Songjiang Mansion because of the invitation to the Dragon Star TV variety show channel after participating in the recording of the New Year's Day New Year's Eve song party, was discovered by fans who were buying the album when they went out to inquire about the sales of the album, and soon caused a siege and onlookers, which once caused the traffic on the street they went to be paralyzed, and finally it was the timely appearance of the police that rescued a few scared girls.

When the national sales data released more than 20 days later, after the recognition of the National Recording Industry Association, it was confirmed that the sales of the album "Sister Sister Stand Up" on this day were as high as 174,391 copies!

Based on the sales volume of this day alone, "Sister and Sister Stand Up" can already directly parachute into the domestic music industry, ranking seventeenth in the history of weekly album sales!

It is precisely because of this day, many years later, that 1996 is known as the first year of the idol of the domestic music scene!
