Chapter 310: Impossible
The summer months from July to September are the golden years of the record industry, and many artists choose to release new albums during the summer.
Under the gathering of big names, the record industry in the summer is naturally surging, and at this time, the competition on the lists of the four major platforms is particularly fierce.
At the beginning of this year's summer file, Wei Xiahai and Dou Wenlong, who both have the name of Little Heavenly King, did it, and their new album frequently exploded with each other in the top position of the Chinese song list, and the fans of the two were also noisy.
At the top of the list, the god of songs' "You're so poisonous" dominates it, they want to do it, but the god of songs won't let it.
However, the battle between the two is also unpleasant.
What's even more disturbing is that just when their competition was heating up, Jiang Zhiran's new album "She" was born.
The main song of the same name topped the daily list in one day, and topped the weekly list in two days, and the momentum of Ruhong forced down the "Hello Poison" in the sky, and Wei Xiahai and Dou Wenlong were even more out of reach.
Seeing Jiang Zhiran's "She" disappearing with a terror index exceeding their single digits, and "Hello Poison" is still strong and the competition is in dire straits, they know that there is no hope in the list, so they can only put the target in the position of exploring flowers again.
But just after you chased me for three days, Jiang Zhiran's second title song "Speechless" was put on the shelves again, and after two days of release, it quickly locked the second place on the daily and weekly lists of the Chinese song list, and finished "Hello Poison", and the excellence of the results lived up to the name of the king.
At this time, Wei Xiahai and Dou Wenlong were no longer able to fight.
It's not that the worlds of difference between Xiao Tianwang and Tianwang make them disheartened, but that their records have been pre-sold for more than half a month. The decline has appeared, and many fierce people are going to release records in the near future and in the future. Even the fight for the fourth place requires a lot of investment, and the owner chooses to accept it when it is good. Even if they want to fight, they are powerless.
Undoubtedly, the first winner of this year's summer file is none other than Jiang Zhiran.
The two title songs occupied the first and second places on the daily and weekly lists of the Chinese song list respectively, "Jiang Lang" not only did not exhaust his talents, but made further progress, and many people sighed that among the four heavenly kings, he was the only one who was still going uphill.
For a time, many media advocated him in various ways, even if there was an episode during which he praised and satirized Ding Ning's remarks.
It's just a slippery hand. Who doesn't have a slippery hand, don't care about these details.
However, as soon as the hand slip incident came out, many of these reports will be related to Ding Ning.
Not only Ding Ning, but in fact, the other three of the Four Heavenly Kings were all involved.
There is a topic of comparison, and many media have reported that compared to Sun Xi and Shao Honggang, who have been going downhill with every album in the past two years, and seem to have entered a creative bottleneck. Zheng Wei, who has not released an album for two years, Jiang Zhiran may be the one who has the last laugh among the four heavenly kings.
And Ding Ning, even if he was popular some time ago, compared to Jiang Zhiran. It's still far from it.
Compared with Jiang Zhiran, Ding Ning is a little tender after all, and he has released two albums. "Seed" can be said to have become famous in one fell swoop, but the later "Single Collection Vol1" is not satisfactory. The sales are worse than "Seeds", and he has to come to the point where Jiang Zhiran can easily sell four or five platinums in pre-sale now. There's still a long way to go.
Even if he has written many hot songs for other singers, a little bit of background is a little bit of background.
Maybe this background is a lifetime gap, no matter how many popular songs he writes, if his album sells sales like Jiang Zhiran, then no matter how popular he is, it is just a false fire.
In these years, there are too many celebrities who are on fire, and if you bring out a small K-pop fresh meat, your popularity seems to be able to turn the four heavenly kings into slag in seconds.
But in fact, their shelf life is far inferior to that of the Four Heavenly Kings, the Four Heavenly Kings have been popular for more than ten years, and this kind of small fresh meat has been metabolized for several generations, and their fire is hot for a while.
Ding Ning didn't have time to pay attention to the reports of the media praising one by one, advocating that Jiang Zhiran's future is infinitely bright, and worrying that he would follow in the footsteps of those Hallyu small fresh meat. The media, a mouthful of "Xiao Tiantian" in front of people, and when he turns around, he can call people "Mrs. Niu", just like that, he doesn't mind.
In comparison, he is more concerned about Gu Xi's new grades.
"The reputation is good, I estimate that "Red Bean" and "Postman" can be on the list." Yang Du also cares about Gu Xi's new college results.
To be honest, he was really not optimistic about Gu Xi at first, but after Ding Ning wrote the songs in the album one after another, and then listened to Gu Xi's interpretation in the prison shed, he changed his mind.
There is a word called "turning decay into magic", which is actually not very appropriate, after all, Gu Xi is not rotten, but he feels that Ding Ning's lyrics and songs really revitalized Gu Xi, who should be a niche.
In his opinion, almost every song written by Ding Ning in this "World" album is tailored to Gu Xi's unique voice.
Deserted, unfamiliar, obviously close at hand but as far away as the end of the world, obviously thinking about it but pretending to be light and light, as if it is about to bloom but wrapping itself like a bud, the words are like this, the song is like this, and the people are like this, all of which are full of indescribable hypocrisy.
But this pretentiousness is very plain, diluting the whitewash, and not disgusting, so that every song in this album, he can cycle for a long time without getting tired.
For this reason, he is very optimistic about this album, and he feels that even if this album does not sell well at the beginning, it will rise sooner or later.
"Then Uncle Yang, you are willing to lose the bet, right?" Hearing Yang Du say this, Ding Ning smiled heartily.
Before the official release of the album, he had Yang Du bet on whether Gu Xi's three title songs would be in the top ten on the Chinese song list and the Imusic list.
The current situation is that although the whole album has not sold much, the word-of-mouth is well received, and "Postman" is on Imusic, and "Red Bean" is gradually rising on the Imusic and Chinese song charts, and the momentum is very strong, there is no sign of weakness for the time being, and most of them can be on the list.
Yang Du was not optimistic about Gu Xi before, but now he has put up an afterthought, isn't he admitting defeat.
When Yang Du heard this, he smiled and said: "I haven't made a choice, where did you lose, you are gambling with yourself." ”
Hearing Yang Du's words, Ding Ning thought about it and found that it was true.
Because Yang Du was not optimistic about Gu Xi at first, after he made the album, he thought it was very good, so he wanted to bet with Yang Du, but at that time Yang Du just smiled, then changed the topic and did not take it.
Speaking of which, it was he who cared more about it, so he kept it in mind.
This doesn't expose his thoughts, Ding Ning smiled embarrassedly: "Then let's make another bet." ”
"What bet?" Yang Du asked.
"Bet on Jiang Zhiran's current ranking on the list will be blown down by my song." Ding Ning smiled slyly.
It is true that the rising momentum of Gu Xi's three title songs is good, but to surpass Jiang Zhiran, who has obviously locked at least one seat in the top ten of the Chinese song list of the year, it is absolutely impossible, no matter how weak the follow-up is, Yang Du said: "It's not that I'm not optimistic about Gu Xi, but people want to be practical, I bet it's impossible!"
