517. in the first place
Han Shenyan.
Li Rui silently recited the name in his heart.
He is naturally no stranger to this name as a music critic, not to mention that he has frequently appeared in hot searches and headlines during this period of time. Although mostly in a less glamorous way.
He actually admires this singer-songwriter very much, and the songs written by him can be said to be almost excellent.
Even the most recent album seems to him to be a good work, not like some singers, or new wine in old bottles, or only one or two songs that can be heard, and the rest are full of money-making works.
After a series of negative news broke, he really regretted it, and was a little worried that this young man with a good creative talent would be affected.
But what I never expected was that I would be here today, on the bulletin board, and see his name.
He has heard the songs in Han Shenyan's latest album "Little Love Song" more than once, and this "Don't Send Me" is naturally no exception.
This song is an episode of the movie "Riding the Wind", as a dark horse that has won a billion box office, this episode has also attracted the attention of many people.
In his opinion, this song appropriately sets off the artistic conception of parting that the movie wants to express, and adds a lot of color to the movie.
It's an excellent song.
But he really didn't expect that this song would be so good that it squeezed the billboard.
Perhaps this is the difference between Eastern and Western cultures.
He wanted to write an article about this song, so he naturally had to research it carefully. Ten minutes later, he had probably figured out why the song was on the billboard.
The process is actually quite simple, not complicated at all.
After the movie was released, many clips were uploaded to video websites at home and abroad. That includes this song.
This song has the melody of American folk country style, but it has been favored by many people. Many people who came in by chance were also conquered by this somewhat sad and somewhat free tune.
Although the language is not spoken, music knows no borders.
By word of mouth, the popularity of the song grew. Finally, a native American folk singer praised it on his personal page after listening to it, and even sang a cover of it himself.
In this way, the popularity of this song was completely detonated.
In the absence of sales, the credits converted to downloads and streams alone made it to the billboard.
The rest of the matter is much simpler, Li Rui quickly finished the manuscript on the computer, and he was very satisfied after revising. It's just that I was a little entangled in the title, and after some hesitation, I finally knocked down the words "unprecedented".
---
The news written by Li Rui completely detonated the entire entertainment industry.
Seventy-three may not sound like much.
But unprecedented, these four words speak for themselves. This is the first time that a Chinese song has appeared on the authoritative charts in Europe and the United States.
Although it seems to be calm in front of the country, it is only another insignificant manifestation of the country's ever-increasing comprehensive strength. But in the entertainment industry, especially in the music industry, among fans, it is not an exaggeration to say that this incident caused an earthquake.
Even when "Riding the Wind" had just been released, everything was going well, although "Don't Send Me" also received a lot of praise, it has been tepid. After the release of the album "Little Love Song", this situation has not changed.
The little love song and the two title songs of the decade dominated the top two on the charts of major music source websites, and several other songs were also on the list, but this "Don't Send Me" has never been on the charts.
But now, something has changed.
It was just overnight that this song was at the top of the charts of all music source sites. Sales of albums, which had been almost stagnant, were also revived. Almost miraculously, it regained the top spot in the daily sales charts. And it's counting.
Many people who have not heard this album before have this question in their minds, if this song that is not good on the album can be on the billboard, how good will the title song be?
The heat is rising.
"Don't Send Me" has become almost a must-play track in cafes and restaurants, and other songs from the album are starting to reappear on the streets.
All the negative news about him on the Internet has also disappeared.
More about his positive reviews.
For example, two years after he retired from the entertainment industry, he returned to the stage through his own efforts.
For example, he has a harmonious relationship with his fans, as close as family.
For example, he quit the entertainment industry for the sake of a relationship.
Even the fact that he was criticized for speaking for the Crystal Crown before was also linked to his warm personality.
This change is not only because of the billboard, but also because of the efforts that Star Media has been working on, it was just a lack of an opportunity before, but it is not completely useless, and the fading popularity is their result. And now, the opportunity has come, and the damage suffered before has become the glory of today.
One trades off the other.
"Star You", whose ratings have always been sluggish, also ushered in a turnaround at this moment. The increase in TV ratings is not yet significant, after all, more than a dozen episodes have already aired. However, the number of broadcasts on the online platform has reached a terrible figure of 500 million in a short period of time.
And word of mouth and praise are increasing, and now the network score has reached a high level of 8.5 points.
Even if you don't consider the ratings, only based on the network clicks, as long as it is maintained, it will be a divine drama that does not lose to "Chasing the Dragon" in the slightest.
And change isn't just happening at home.
The ranking of the song "Don't Send Me" is not fixed at seventy-three, and it continues to climb over time.
More and more people are paying attention to such a "foreign language" song. The song set off a retro trend. In major radio stations and variety shows, this song is constantly mentioned.
Even Xingchuang Media has received a lot of letters of intent. Many internationally renowned record companies have extended olive branches to Han Shenyan, wanting to obtain the overseas distribution rights of his song.
There are also many singers who have sent faxes, hoping to cover the song in other languages. This even includes singers who have won Grammys.
For the invitation of the record company, Xingchuang has begun to negotiate, but all requests for cover songs have been refused.
Maybe it will be in two years, but now, the copyright only belongs to Han Shenyan to maximize the benefits.
Invitations to variety shows, advertisements, commercial performances, and even TV dramas and movies are pouring in like snowflakes again.
It's just that now Han Shenyan's worth has quadrupled compared to before. has almost reached the level of a king-level singer.
Everything is going for the better.
PS: In the near future, it is a guaranteed 2000 word update, and it will not be explained in the future.
