Chapter 60: Flying Birds
Not long after "I Am a Little Bird" was released on the music network, it entered the top ten of the new music playback list in China, and various data skyrocketed and spread rapidly, although many people are still not familiar with Jiang Li, but it does not prevent them from liking this song.
Wei Shen, a well-known music critic, once again published a long comment on the "New Song Quick Review", praising Jiang Li's self-breakthrough and transformation attempts, positive xiangshang's inspirational songs are rare to see, so shocking and even more so, an extremely simple metaphor, but it is so touching, this is a hymn written for all living beings and the general public, even if it is still unknown, if you don't give up your ideals, withstand the pressure, go all out, and stagger forward, you may not be able to fly high one day, and then fly high!
In December, Jiang Li, who received last month's income from the music network, invested an additional 5 million in Little Bird Company, and the shares were redistributed to 90% of Jiang Li, 6% of Chen Shimei, and 4% of Dai Tao.
Chen Shimei has no objection to this, because Jiang Li has proved how capable he is, and Little Bird Company can do without Chen Shimei and Dai Tao, but it must not be without Jiang Li, this is the essential gap.
Therefore, Jiang Li gave the shares to Chen Shimei and Dai Tao at the beginning, which was affection, not duty.
With the support of the 5 million funding, Little Bird upgraded its servers, increased its bandwidth to accommodate 30,000 people online and watched videos at a time, and hired six new employees.
However, the workplace is still located in the office building of Flying Bird Records, which can save money, although Yue Yanming mentioned that the rental fee should be charged according to the rules, after all, the two companies are different companies, but after being vetoed by Jiang Li, it will not be done.
Yue Yanming has recently been busy promoting the record "Don't Talk" and the previous "Fairy Tale" in Anhui Province through the Flying Bird Luzhou Branch, and the sales are expected to be very impressive, and Ye Chen also went to Luzhou to promote it.
Jiang Li Ye Chen's MV Creation Contest has been brewing for more than ten days, and it is gradually getting better, starting in December, there are as many as 100 new entries every day, including real people, and animated interpretations like "I Am a Little Bird" to enrich the video library of Little Bird.
Only continuous updates can maintain people's attention, it is not enough to rely on the little bird company alone, it must be rooted in the masses, Jiang Li knows this, so he first launched this activity.
Facts have proved that Jiang Li's strategy is very successful, the Little Bird video website is changing with each passing day, adding tens of thousands of members every day, the most popular video "I am a Little Bird" has nearly 10 million views, and the most popular MV has also exceeded one million, and the advertising business has skyrocketed.
In addition, it is worth mentioning that Jiang Li's column in December's "Children's Story" Ah Li is no longer a classic fairy tale that was famous in his previous life, but his own creation of "Little Bird", that is, the background story of the Flash animation of "I Am a Little Bird", which echoes and contrasts with the song.
Some people speculate that Jiang Li and Ah Li are not the same person, but a longing confidant, Jiang Li got inspiration from "The Little Match Girl" and created "Match Heaven", Ah Li "treats his body in the way of others", and got inspiration from "I am a little bird" to create "Little Bird".
If this speculation is true, then the story of Jiang Li and Ah Li will definitely be passed down as a good story, comparable to the Boya and Zhongzi periods.
It's a pity......
No matter what the people talked about, Jiang Li always remained silent, ready to go to school for a period of time with peace of mind, in order to make up for the homework he had pulled down and ensure two-thirds of the attendance.
But Tang Shishi found him at this time and expressed her dissatisfaction, she already had feelings for the bird, but she suddenly killed the little bird halfway, which was as annoying as a third party.
"Silly departure, how can you favor one over the other? The bird has obviously been with you for a longer time, but you have created a corporate song for the little bird and left the bird aside, are you already ...... Are you tired of flying birds?" Tang Shishi opened her big eyes and seemed to be about to cry.
He said this as if he were a negative man who had failed Asuka's heart.
Jiang Li avoided the other party's pure eyes with a slight weakness, coughed twice, and said, "Actually, I also prepared a song for the bird, but the matter of the little bird is imminent, so I can only give priority." ”
"Really, really, really?" asked Tang Shishi again and again.
Jiang Li was forced to retreat to the corner, and smiled helplessly, Tang Shishi was already eccentric, once she was coquettish, it was really unbearable, especially those eyes, blinking, and could speak.
"It's true. Because it was too close, Jiang Li's breath as he spoke blew on the other party's delicate melon seed face, Tang Shishi blushed and hurriedly pulled away.
"You big fool, I'm ...... Waiting for your good news!" Tang Shishi seemed to have used up all the courage of her body, turned around and ran.
Jiang Li looked at the beautiful back of the other party's departure, smiled lightly, shook his head, and turned to think about what Tang Shishi mentioned, he didn't lie, he did have a plan.
The name of this song is "Flying Bird", Zheng Zhihua's "Flying Bird".
Zheng Zhihua was one of the most influential Chinese humanities singers in the 90s of the 20th century, and his masterpieces "Sailor" and "Lights on the Stars" were very popular in the early 90s, and then faded out of the music circle, and then made a comeback with the album EP "Flying Birds".
Although "Flying Birds" is far less famous than the previous two songs, the catchy melody, the cutting-edge "rock + string" arrangement, and the masculine and tragic lyrics temperament express the connotation of Zheng-style love songs to the extreme, and at the same time inject new musical elements into the background of the new era.
All in all, this song is definitely worth listening to, especially for people in the seventies and eighties.
But that's another thing.
"There is no turning back in life, just like I am now, I can't be idle at all, is it asking for trouble?" Jiang Li sighed secretly, who would have imagined that a high school student would be so busy, busy writing songs, busy starting a company, busy with various things, although life is extremely fulfilling, it is also not easy.
Sometimes Jiang Li couldn't help but ask himself, if he wanted his family to live happily, wouldn't it be enough with his current net worth of tens of millions?
However, after all, he wants to be dissatisfied, not because he has little money, nor because he is not famous enough, but because he wants to experience a colorful life and do his best to leave traces of survival in this shijie.
Since God gave him the golden finger of the temple of music, it should always make sense, just like the little bird's mother lied before she died, although it turned out to be not the same thing, but it was still the same thing.
Let's work hard for something that I don't know what it's all about.
Jiang Li lazily supported his chin with one hand, squinted his eyes, and looked at the tall plane tree outside the window, not knowing where to go.
"Jiang Li!" Yan Liqun's cheer brought him back to his senses, "Listen to the class carefully, the next content is very important." ”
"Uh...... Well. ”
Yan Liqun saw that the other party had already focused on the lecture, so he stopped talking, if it was someone else, I am afraid that he would have gone out to punish him at this time, but Jiang Li is Jiang Li after all, Yan Liqun does not dare to let him do this now.
Zhang Nara pushed her notebook over and wrote: I poked you with my finger just now, but you didn't react, why are you thinking so much?
Jiang Li smiled and replied: One plus one weishenme equals two?
Zhang Nara said: Clean nonsense!
Jiang Lidao: Listen to the class.
Zhang Nara bit her lower lip, sat up again, looked at the blackboard, and listened attentively.
"Ye Chen, you can answer this question......
"Ahh
Ye Chen hurriedly stood up, Zhang Huang was at a loss, he was obviously not listening to the lecture just now, as for what to do, he had to ask Jiang Li.
At this time, Jiang Li knocked on the table, Ye Chen squinted, and saw a book of open notes, which was specially circled with a red pen somewhere.
She glanced at Jiang Li gratefully, and said the answer according to the script, and then saw the other party hand the notebook back to Zhang Nara, speechless for a while......
This is just a small episode in Jiang Li's life, ordinary and trivial, simple and warm, maybe it is not as vigorous as other things Jiang Li has done, but it has its own meaning, such as Ye Chen and Zhang Nara deepened their relationship because of this.
Ye Chen has been completely integrated into campus life, and the people in Jiangcheng No. 1 Middle School also know that the other party is the singer Ye Chen, the boy is ready to move, but he does not dare to pursue it too much, because of Jiang Li's existence.
If the competitor is Jiang Li, there is obviously no chance of winning.
That night, Jiang Li and Tang Shishi came to Shu Yutong's villa with a familiar car and started the creation of "Flying Birds".
"You demon! Eat my old grandson!" Tang Shishi was about to fight, but Jiang Li flicked his forehead and stopped his movements in an instant, "You ......"
"What are you, I listened to your words, you look at Yutong, quiet as a virgin, this is a lady's demeanor. ”
"I'm a virgin too!"
As soon as the words came out, Tang Shishi realized that something was wrong, blushed, and hurriedly hid behind Shu Yutong.
"Let's get started. She whispered.
The beautiful melody circulated in the music room, Shu Yutong played the piano, Tang Shishi beat the drums, Jiang Li played the guitar, and between the three of them, there was no need for words, just a look or gesture could fully match each other's rhythm.
Jiang Li took a deep breath, as if incarnated as a man with vicissitudes of life, and began to sing affectionately.
"Neon-dyed streets, I am a black and white sketch, falling into the long night of longing, a heart has nowhere to escape, once calm, suddenly woke up, why do I think of you again, a thousand words, I just want to ask if I haven't seen you for many years?"
The three pairs of eyes blended with each other, slowly, almost unable to distinguish each other, until two lines of tears flowed from the corners of Shu Yutong's eyes.
I just want to ask how you are after years of not seeing?
At this moment, Jiang Li's voice suddenly became high, like a bird that resolutely soared into the sky.
"I am willing to become a bird, fly through danger and obstruction, just to throw myself into your arms, even if the wind blows my wings and the heavy rain wets my feathers, I fly higher and higher! I am willing to become a bird, fly to the ends of the earth, looking for Zuihou's support, there is a person I once loved, lost in the sea of people, if anyone has seen it, let me know ......"
Let me know and let me find you!
