Chapter 23: The Beginning, the Road to Fame

"They're gone?"

"Well, let's go!"

"Is there anything wrong with them?"

"I don't know, I'm probably passing by, I'm here to cheer!"

As soon as Park Shiyun entered the door, he met Li Juli, as if he was standing there waiting for him.

"There are so many beautiful women who cheer you on, didn't they hold you to the sky?" Li Juli said a little sourly.

Park Shiyun was slightly stunned, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"It's okay, you go and sing, I'm a little tired and want to go back to the lounge to rest." Li Juli showed a tired look on her delicate face.

"Are you alright, do you have a fever?" Seeing this, Park Shiyun's heart tightened, and he felt that he touched Li Juli's smooth forehead, and his hand felt a little cold, not like a fever.

"No, I'm just tired of singing and want to take a break, you can go" Li Juli patted off Park Shiyun's hand on her forehead, turned her head and walked to the passage in the direction of the lounge.

"Inexplicable" Park Shiyun scratched his head and walked to the stage for some reason

In the following time, Park Shiyun's life became extraordinarily orderly. Three performances a day, five nights a week at the bar and two nights at the Daoyuan Studio.

Except for the episode of Jung so-kyung, Park Shi-yoon's performance went smoothly, no one recognized him as a fake davi, and Baole Music Company gradually got back on track under Park Shi-yoon's hard performance.

In addition, the friendship between Park Shiyun and Li Juli has also sublimated dramatically during this time, after all, they are mixed together every night except for sleeping, and they have more time together than when they first met, and the two have a deeper understanding of each other, how can friendship not be sublimated.

In the blink of an eye, May has passed, and more than half of June has passed, and time is running fast, which also makes Park Shiyun sigh at Li Juli from time to time, where has the time gone. And Li Juli unceremoniously gave him four words - no disease**.

In addition, there is also gratifying news, that is, Xu Zhuxian and her girl group have officially entered the countdown to their debut. On the first Tuesday of June, their debut record "Girls Go to School" was officially broadcast on M TV. Park Shiyun also officially knew the name of their girl group, called Girls' Generation.

For Park Shi-yoon, Seo Joo-hyun is a familiar stranger. He knew her name, what she did, where she could find her. But after watching "Girls Go to School", he realized that Xu Zhuxian still has too many things that he doesn't understand, such as her stage name after her debut, such as her somewhat stubborn personality, such as she has a habit of eating sweet potatoes, for example, she must go to bed before twelve o'clock every night, and get up at seven o'clock in the morning to study, for example, she is serious and stubborn, but she is not tactful, and some of the words she says often make others feel embarrassed, which is also where her personality is cute.

and so on, all of which Park Shiyun learned through the program "Girls Go to School".

Park Shi-yoon hasn't seen Seo Hyun since the last time a group of girls came to the bar (Seo Joo-hyun has officially changed his name to Seo Hyun since then, and has been writing Seo Joo-hyun, which feels weird). Occasionally, when he passed by the door of S.M, he would deliberately glance at the small door on the side of S.M. In fact, he also knows that because Girls' Generation has entered the countdown to their debut, they have a lot of private performances, and they are busier than themselves, and it is impossible to see Seo Hyun with him.

Gradually, Park Shi-yoon also put Seo Hyun behind him, and he didn't have time to think about this girl every day. In addition to the three commercial performances fixed every day, and sometimes even four, Park Shiyun has to go to the bar to sing and study at Kwak Do-won, and his full life makes him have no time to care about other things.

In the blink of an eye, July has arrived, and the land of Seoul has finally ushered in another hot season

Entering July, half of Park Shiyoon's time playing Davi's stand-in has passed. Although he did not earn much financial income during this time, his stage experience has increased significantly, and he has become more comfortable playing the role of Davi.

Park Shiyun himself has made great progress in his strength under the guidance of Dao Yuan. Compared to a month and a half ago, it is a world of difference. Sure enough, there is a difference between a master teaching and not being called by a master, which is really big.

On the first Wednesday of July, Park Shi-yoon, with the help of Kwak Do-won, began recording his first original song, "Fairy Tale". Regarding the fact that Park Shiyun, a fake davi, wanted to record a song, Brother Hei and Lao Zhao did not raise any objections. It's just to record a song, not an album, no need to shoot a MV, and even Guo Daoyuan hasn't charged Park Shiyun any fees, they don't have to spend a penny, so naturally they won't say a word.

Park Shiyun has tried to record many times before, and he is no longer the original novice when it comes to recording songs. But despite this, under Park Shiyun's repeated and repeated improvements, this song, which no longer has any difficulty for him, actually took a week to record.

The finished "Fairy Tale" is very different from the previous one, the tune has become piano as the main key, guitar assisted, and other popular music elements are also integrated, and the whole song is not known how many times fuller than before.

The next thing is the release, and it is naturally impossible for Baole Company to release a single EP to Park Shiyun, which will cost a lot of money, and obviously they are not ready to invest in Park Shiyun. There is only one way in front of Park Shiyun, and that is to upload it to several official music source websites in South Korea led by Melon.

Although this is the end of the story, the next part is the hardest. Park Shi-yoon is not very popular, so his songs are simply the kind that no one cares about. "Fairy Tale" quickly became one of the thousands of third-rate songs, unlike TVXQ, Bigbang, and Superjunir, which were followed by thousands of fans as soon as they were released, and topped the new song chart in just a few hours.

After "Fairy Tale" was uploaded, Park Shiyun performed while paying attention to the click-through rate of "Fairy Tale" at any time, and five days later, "Fairy Tale" is still hovering outside the top 100 on the new song list.

In this regard, Park Shiyun was a little discouraged. He has confidence in his songs, which can be seen in the strong response from the audience when he sings live several times. But because no one knew the goods, Baole Company refused to spend money to support him, so he fell into such a situation.

Guo Daoyuan comforted him and said that a singer who has no qualifications and no powerful brokerage company is almost impossible to become famous with a song.

In addition, Guo Daoyuan also told Park Shiyun that he would recommend this "Fairy Tale" to a few friends in the music circle and ask them to help promote it.

Park Shi-yoon is grateful for Kwak Do-won's comfort and help, but in his opinion, it is difficult for ordinary people to help him unless a major producer in the music industry recommends "Fairy Tale" and attracts the attention of the public.

But how can Guo Daoyuan have that kind of friend, in Park Shiyun's cognition, Guo Daoyuan is just an older middle-aged man who understands music and opens a recording studio.

In the blink of an eye, at the end of July, "Fairy Tale" still did not improve, and Park Shiyun no longer had any hope. Since "Fairy Tale" was uploaded to major music source websites, Park Shiyun's mood was first nervous, gradually disappointed, and finally indifferent, which can be described as changeable. Life has returned to peace, running performances during the day, singing in bars at night, and going to supper with Li Juli after 12 o'clock.

On the first day of August, YG announced that the music source of BIGBANG's mini title song "Lies" would be released on music sites such as Melon in advance, and the music scene, which had been quiet for months, suddenly became lively. Half a month ago, YG began to build momentum for BIGBANG's mini album, and the title song "Lies" on the mini album, written by BIGBANG's captain Kwon Ji-ryong, known as the best idol songwriter in 2000, has garnered a lot of attention. YG Company has the intention of making Kwon Zhilong the best original singer in the music industry.

Sure enough, at 12 o'clock at noon, the ban on "Lies" was lifted, and the number of downloads on major music websites was like a rocket for a while, and its poisonous melody immediately attracted fans. Only one hour ago, music critics from various music magazines on the Internet have issued comments on the song "Lies", without exception, they have been well received, and as soon as "Lies" came out, it took only one afternoon to refresh the top of the major music charts and reach the top.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, Shin Min-hee, a famous music critic who is respected as a teacher by many music critics and the editor-in-chief of the famous music magazine "MusicWeek", commented on "Lies" on his personal Twitter:

"YG is an agency that focuses on the development of artists' personalities, which has created Kwon Ji-ryong, an excellent songwriter with an unbridled imagination and unparalleled musical talent, and the release of the song "Lies" proves that he is currently the top original singer in the Korean music industry, which is commendable.

There are so many original singers in the music industry that it's hard to name a second person other than Park Jin-young, the president of JYP. Many brokerage companies that focus on commercial forms do not hesitate to stifle their creative talent in order to make their artists famous as quickly as possible, which is a pity (here it alludes to S.M Company, S.M Company is too commercial, and the stars sing songs written and arranged by the gold medal creative team over and over again). S.M has so many great singers, but none of them have made a popular song).

The song "Lies" has the potential to become a divine comedy, and it will also push BIGBANG to the peak of his career, and Kwon Ji-ryong will also enter the peak of his singing career.

There is no doubt that Kwon Zhilong, who created "Lies", is a musical genius. Such a genius is hoped that YG will cherish it.

Of course, there is no shortage of geniuses in this world, but there is a lack of eyes to discover geniuses. A friend the other day thought I recommended a song and asked me to help spread the word.

I listened to it for days, and I was hesitant to do it or not. It wasn't until today, after the release of "Lies", that I made up my mind to promise this friend to help this musical genius discovered by someone who has not yet had the eye to discover genius, and this song is called "Fairy Tale". ”
