Chapter 144 This is called Chinese Style!
All people will have a mindset problem.
In normal social interactions, everyone pays attention to a first impression, and they all care about this first impression. Because once a first impression is made, it is often difficult to reverse.
In terms of the film and television industry, if you are really recognized by everyone as a powerful actor, then even if you will take on a lot of commercial blockbusters later, and may even hit a few movies on the street, everyone will still subconsciously feel that you are a powerful actor, and if you are known by everyone when you debut, you are a vase, whether it is a male vase or a female vase, then okay, maybe you will work hard for many years and work hard to temper your acting skills, to act in a lot of literary films, but the label of the vase on your body will still be difficult to take off.
For example, from a popular vase to finally becoming a unanimously recognized powerful actor, Maggie Cheung has spent more than ten years, Charlize Theron has also been more than ten years, and Andy Lau has simply not been recognized for decades, even if he has won several actor titles, and Leonardo ...... Anyway, until Li Qian came to this time and space, he still couldn't get the Oscar statuette.
This rule is also applicable in the pop music world.
Britney Spears is no longer popular, and the Grammys still don't want to see her, because she has been considered to have no singing skills since her debut, at least not artistic enough, on the contrary, Adele's albums have also sold a lot, but as soon as she debuted, she was considered "music with a soul", so she made a lot of money commercially, and the Grammys were also regarded as treasures.
To make an analogy, in the current domestic music scene, Liao Liao's status is similar to the status of Adele in the time and space that Li Qian has experienced, and the five elements are somewhat similar to Britney's situation in the art circle.
Therefore, Liao Liao is a powerful faction, and he has been since his debut.
So, although her album sales are also not low, she can be classified as a commercially successful singer, but within the music industry. The evaluation of her has always been quite high.
On the other hand, Wuxing Wusu is the so-called idol faction, which is also from their debut, to "Sister and Sister Stand Up", which they are really known by fans across the country. They still are.
Although in order to suppress the rhythm of the whole album and improve the overall style, Li Qian also tried his best, and did not hesitate to give them the song "Farewell" to "spoil", but it was useless. The album was a success, a big hit, a big hit in the market, but many people in the music industry scoffed at this bouncing group of five girls.
Therefore, for the market and fans, when the three major female voices start a war, everyone's expectation of the three new albums of the three people must be at the top of the list, and Liao Liao may surpass He Runqing, but it should not be too much.
But. For the music industry, everyone's expectations for Liao Liao's new album "The Sound of the Waves Remains" are enough to throw the five elements and He Runqing together a few streets away!
Moreover, even in the expectations of fans, if you talk about quantity, the Five Elements will undoubtedly occupy the first place, but in terms of the quality of expectations, there is no doubt that Liao Liao is still enough to kill He Runqing, who has not changed his tone for many years, and the Five Elements who are classified as idols.
The timing of the press conference and the release of the first title song for the three albums. At most, there is a difference of four days, but the time to go public is the longest delay for Liao Liao.
A title song was released a month before the album was released, perhaps for the vast majority of singers. Even the pirated version has come out, and even everyone is almost tired of listening to pirated versions of this song, so this so-called No. 1 title song has basically been scrapped, at least it can't play a role in pulling the whole album.
But for Liao Liao, an absolute powerhouse. That's not a problem at all.
Especially, when she, a powerful faction, meets an absolute classic song, this is not a problem.
Even, Sony He Runqing's new album plans to invest 1.2 million Chinese yuan to promote, and then the situation is grim, this number has doubled, reaching an astonishing 2.4 million, Hua Singing has also prepared up to 1.5 million publicity funds for the new album of Wuxing Wusu, while Changsheng Records has only prepared 600,000 publicity funds for Liao Liao's new album...... Still no problem!
On Wednesday, the day after the official release of the album "The Sound of the Waves", the release of the Voice of China's golden song on-demand chart said it all-
After the previous two or three weeks of continuous rise in popularity, on the list released this week, "The Sound of the Waves", which was still not listed at that time, jumped to the top of the list in one fell swoop!
Moreover, on the "Artist Weekly" that was launched on this day, the front-page headline comment signed by Mr. Xie Jinshun once again appeared - "This is called Chinese style!"
“…… Chinese style songs have been very popular recently, and many singers have released albums to promote a certain Chinese style in their albums, but I want to ask, do you know what Chinese style is? Chinese style is to fill in some words that are elegant and tame? Chinese style is to compose a song with the flavor of Peking Opera? I can really only shake my head at this. In my understanding, the so-called Chinese style, the most important thing is the charm inherited from the classical culture that belongs to the Chinese nation! Without this rhyme, no matter how quaint your words are, no matter how much you write your songs in the same way as Peking Opera, you are not qualified to call it Chinese style!"
“…… So the question is, what is Chinese style? Or what is good Chinese style? As far as I can see, there are only about three and a half of these so-called Chinese style songs that have appeared on the market to be called by this title. This half song is the "Rock Sugar Gourd" in the last album of the Five Elements Wusu Group, and the reason why it can only be regarded as half a song is because although the rhyme in the bones of this song is very right, after all, the lyrics are not white and not elegant enough. ”
"The freshness and elegance of "Half a Pot of Yarn", as well as the subtle Zen conveyed in the bones of this song, can be regarded as a song. Although "Unfinished Love" is also biased towards the style of Peking Opera, its kind of rhyme of wanting to talk is absolutely unique, and of course it can also be regarded as a song. The last one is the purpose of this little article I wrote today, that is, Liao Liao's newly released "The Sound of the Waves Remains"! From now on, if someone asks what Chinese style is, then I will tell him. If someone else says that his work is Chinese style, then I will tell him to listen to "The Sound of the Waves Remains". That's called Chinese style ......"
In terms of the status of the old man Xie Jinshun, he has made a definite conclusion as soon as he says it!
Moreover, it seems to echo his "three and a half" discourse, which is on demand in this issue of Voice of China's golden songs. In addition to the brazen ascent of "The Sound of the Waves", there are some things that people can't understand at first, but after reading this article, they feel that they suddenly have happened.
Because, "Unfinished Love" is back!
The album "Liao Liao" has been on the market for more than ten months, with the passage of time, and new songs continue to appear, before the three major female voices announced the war, in addition to the song "Persistence", the other songs on her last album have been off the list, like "Unfinished Love". It's been almost half a year since I was off the list.
But now, with the increasing popularity of "The Sound of the Waves", this album is still reluctant to be listed, and when everyone can't wait for Liao Liao's other new songs, they seem to have recalled the feeling when they listened to Liao Liao's last album, so first "Cheers, Friends" returned to the golden song on demand, and now, the Chinese-style song "Unfinished Love" is more similar to the style of "The Sound of the Waves". The return is also announced again!
Although "Unfinished Love" is only ranked ninth, which is considered a crane tail ranking, you must know that for the vast majority of singers. To have a song on the list already represents a great success. And even for singers of Liu Mingming, Hu Yang, as well as Zhen Zhen, He Runqing and Liao Liao, at most, at the beginning of the new album and new songs, can they dominate the list for a period of time, but. If you want to be on the list for almost a year after being listed, it is extremely difficult, even close to impossible.
And now, when the album "The Sound of the Waves Remains" has not yet been released, just the song "The Sound of the Waves Remains" that was released and played on major radio stations for publicity purposes has already restored Liao Liao's prestige of being on the list at the same time with four songs!
"The Sound of the Waves Remains", first place.
"Persistence", third place.
Cheers, Friend, 7th place.
"Unfinished Love", ninth place.
All of a sudden, the entire domestic music scene was eyed by it.
And on this list, the title song of the new album "Let Me Fly", which was still majestic last week, unexpectedly fell directly from third place to sixth place!
On the contrary, "Sister and Sister Stand Up", which has always been popular among young people, although it is facing the bag of several songs by Liao Liao on this week's list, it still sits firmly in the second place, and continues to show its strong strength!
Moreover, if it is just a simple decline in the ranking of the song "Let Me Fly", it may not mean anything, after all, for most songs, it is normal for the list to be on the list and even jump up in the first few weeks after its release, and then the popularity of a single song declines and the ranking slowly declines. On the contrary, it is not normal to continue to dominate the list for nearly a year like "Persistence", and "Sister and Sister Stand Up" has also dominated for more than half a year and is still full of spare strength.
The problem now is that the album "Let Me Fly" was officially released nationwide last week, and all ten songs on the entire album have all met with fans and listeners, but on the top ten of this issue's golden song on demand list, this album has no songs on the list except for the title song "Let Me Fly"!
If the drop in the ranking of "Let Me Fly" doesn't mean anything, then such a weak performance of the whole album, falling in the eyes of professionals, undoubtedly indicates that there is something wrong with the overall quality of the album.
And it's a very serious problem!
In short, because of the publicity and warm-up in the early stage, because of the great momentum of the three major female voices, and because of the expectations of fans across the country for the new album of Wuxing Wusu that have continued from the last album "Sister and Sister Stand Up", the song "Let Me Fly" has successfully made it to the charts regardless of its quality. However, when fans do get the whole album, they may not be disappointed, but at least, they find that the album does not quite live up to their expectations.
You know, you are the five elements of Wusu, you have sung "Sister Sister Stand Up", "Happy Baby", and also sang "Lovelorn Front Alliance", "Rock Sugar Gourd", "Lovebirds" and "Farewell"!
Not to mention the surprise, it didn't burn at all!
Therefore, "Let Me Fly" did not have any strong performance at all, and after only a few weeks, the ranking began to decline, and it was completely not as strong and strong as the level of "Sister Sister Stand Up".
So, the whole album didn't make the list except for this song!
And, a little ironically, although the performance of the new album of Wuxing Wusu does not seem to be so strong, but on this week's list, in addition to "Sister Sister Stand Up" is still ranked second, except for "Love Birds", although it is ranked tenth, it is still outside the list, I don't know if the fans are too disappointed with their album, or they miss their last album too much, or they are influenced by the popular Chinese style "The Sound of the Waves Remains", in short, "Rock Sugar Gourd" is actually the same as "Unfinished Love" The same, after a long time, it is back on the list again!
This has led to a very strange thing: it is clear that the new album of Wuxing Wusu has been released, but on the gold song on the on-demand list, except for the title song "Let Me Fly", which was released in advance, none of them are on the list, but their last album released half a year ago has actually resumed the trend of having three songs on the list at the same time!
Of course, perhaps in the eyes of a layman, he still can't help but feel that Wuxing Wusu, who has four songs on the list at the same time, is as strong as Liao Liao, who also has four songs on the list. The two of them teamed up to occupy eight of the top ten seats on the golden song on-demand list, compared to He Runqing, who also has a new album on the market, but only has a new song "Acacia Bamboo" on the list, they are too strong.
But...... That's just a layman's opinion!
In the eyes of insiders who have studied record sales a little, "The Sound of the Waves Remains", which has triggered the entire music industry with just one title song released in advance, and even directly or indirectly affected several seats in the top ten of the golden song on-demand list, is the real strength!
