Chapter 1521: Madness or Storm
Choi Jung-won didn't bother with "Infinite Challenge" and didn't meet with anyone who performed today.
After being baptized by Liu Zaishi and Li Di's "The Fate of Words", he took Ju Li on the return journey.
In his opinion, the success of today's song festival belongs to the "Infinite Challenge" program team and members, as well as to every participating guest, and even the people who have worked hard for these wonderful music behind the scenes.
He should not disturb their celebrations, nor should he share in the fruits of others.
In the car on the way back, Juli was always calm and excessive.
It wasn't until he could see the bustling lights of Seoul that Choi Jung-won heard a long sigh from beside him.
Turning his head to look, he happened to meet Juli's watery gaze.
"Oba, I'm just now realizing that my life is full of regrets."
"Oh, why do you say that?" Cui Zhengyuan knew that Ju Li was stimulated a lot today.
Julie's fingers slid back and forth on the window, but the impression still came as expected. "In the past, we have achieved successes one after another, and when we are greeted with praise, flowers and applause, we feel that we have done a great job. But today, after watching their praise in Shi Oba, I realized that we can do better. ”
Speaking of this, she smiled at Cui Zhengyuan. "Now I understand why you've always asked us to work hard. At first, we just thought that you were afraid that we would not succeed, but it turned out that the taste after hard work was so good. ”
"Okay, watching a song festival can give you such a correct understanding, and it's worth it to me." Cui Zhengyuan smiled and said with relief.
Why is the West Coast Highway Festival so good?
Everyone can name different reasons, but in Choi's view, it comes down to just because they work hard enough.
When you work hard for one thing with sincere sweat, the fields that are finally cultivated will also bear abundant fruits.
"I don't know after the show airs. How will the outside world react? Juli said curiously.
Cui Zhengyuan said meaningfully: "All singers are going to be unlucky." ”
Ju Li didn't know why, she didn't know why Cui Zhengyuan said such a thing, and she didn't know what he meant by this.
But no matter how she asked, Cui Zhengyuan maintained a sense of mystery.
Fortunately, time passed quickly, and when July 2 arrived, the "Infinite Challenge" West Coast Highway Song Festival finally returned to meet the audience in front of the TV as scheduled.
It was also after the end of this episode that Ju Li deeply realized why Cui Zhengyuan said that.
In this episode, "Infinite Challenge" achieved a rating of 18.5%. Unsurprisingly, it occupies one spot in the same period on Saturday.
What is slightly unexpected is that compared with the previous period, it has actually increased by 1.1%.
But the terrifying thing is that the music source of the song festival released by KTmusic Records is like a herd of migrating bison on the African savannah, trampling the entire music industry beyond recognition.
As of July 4th, the most authoritative music source list in South Korea, Melon, from the first place to the seventh place, was all covered by "Infinite Challenge".
And in first and second place. It is the long-awaited "Flower Heaven and Wine Land" and "Apguting Gangster".
Kwon Ji-ryong, Park Myung-so and Yoo Jae-seok are all popular artists in the Korean entertainment industry. Their combinations, every move is an innumerable focus of attention.
In addition, their works are indeed excellent, so it is not surprising to win the first or second place.
The collaboration of two professional singers, Yoshi and BADA. The response has also been good. "The Song Only I Can Sing" is therefore ranked third and is loved by many professional music fans.
If it's just melon, forget it, the problem is that all the music source websites in South Korea, but any work with the "Infinite Challenge" song festival is on the shelves. It's sure to squeeze the rest of the competitors out of the way.
It can be said that the singers who returned during this period have all become victims.
Fortunately, the "Infinite Challenge" ballad festival does not participate in the song. The only stage that can land on HBC's "Youle Show" is HBC, otherwise it will definitely be a public enemy.
Another even more terrifying fact is that by July 6, the news revealed from the producer of "Infinite Challenge" that the album sales of the West Coast Highway Song Festival had reached 65,000 copies.
You must know that TVXQ's album, which was released today on March 14, only sold 51,354 copies in a month.
The first full-length album of f(x), released on April 20, sold 54,987 copies as of May.
The album charts have a deep part with popularity, and as the record market has fallen into a slump, it has become increasingly difficult for released records to do well.
If you consider this, Infinite Challenge is likely to be one of the best-selling albums today.
At the moment, it seems that the only one who can be their opponent and can pose a threat to them is Dark.L, who is rumored to return in August.
Because it hasn't returned for more than two years in a row, Dark.L fans have been looking forward to this album for a long time.
Other than that, I can't think of anyone else who can compete with the sales of this album.
The most speechless thing is that this is just a song festival. Among the participants, although many of them are well-known musicians in the Korean music industry. But Yoo Jae-seok, Park Myung-so, Jung Jun-ha, haha, Roh Hong-chul, Jung Hyung-don, what are these.
But this is such a combination, and it actually blows the career that many people maintain all their lives to the ground.
Two years ago, at the Olympic Song Festival, the works of Yoo Jae-seok and Park Myung-so had already aroused a lot of criticism.
And this time, it's a strange thing that came out of nowhere, anyway, it's accusing "Infinite Challenge" of not doing business and blaspheming music.
As a result, this unhealthy atmosphere has not drifted far, and it was immediately criticized by fans who like "Infinite Challenge" and people who insist on justice.
Anyway, in Cui Zhengyuan's judgment, among the people who stirred up these discussions, they are more or less related to the singers who have recently returned.
Because these are the people who were impacted by "Infinite Challenge".
People are all creatures of interest, and it doesn't matter to them, who would offend South Korea's national variety show for no reason?
However, JYP is not very suspicious, because their 2PM does not have a very good music score. But the consecutive championships in programs such as "Music Bank" are obviously enough.
Anyway, HBC TV is crazy.
Although they invested a lot in this song festival, they did not have a penny of profit. But what a great influence this song festival has created, just from advertisers, it has made a lot of money.
Who cares about the revenue from music sources and records.
It was also from this year's Song Festival that the power of "Infinite Challenge" began to be realized.
In the past, when it came to "Infinite Challenge", in the impression of many people, it was just a national variety show and the main program of HBC TV.
In the final analysis, I just treat "Infinite Challenge" as a show.
But this time the West Coast Highway is all the rage. Whether it's entertainment news or social news, all of them have given a lot of attention.
Music critics, cultural critics, social critics, and even political critics have all been involved in commenting on the show.
The Chosun Ilbo, the most authoritative newspaper in South Korea, pointed out in a clear and unequivocal manner that "Infinite Challenge" is a masterpiece of Korean culture.
It's not just a laugh that makes people laugh and kill boring times. At the same time, he is a thought-provoking and inspiring masterpiece.
From this program, people can see the various states of life, social changes, growth changes, cultural conflicts, and ideological collisions, and at the same time, they can also gain moving, educational, inspirational and knowledge.
Mr. Zheng Guangjiu, a well-known current affairs critic. He said clearly: "Infinite Challenge" is a social encyclopedia, and we need to face it with a learning mentality. Being able to have it by your side is an asset to every citizen of the Republic of Korea.
All kinds of crazes are superimposed, and people are clearly aware of it. The entire Korean entertainment industry in July 2011 belongs to "Infinite Challenge".
During this period, the craze for Infinite Challenges suppressed all the news. It's not just entertainment news. Even the attention of social news has dropped by 13.2% year-on-year.
As stated in "The Entertainer's Intermediary", perhaps the only way to cool down the ballad festival of "Infinite Challenge" may be time.
In the previous life, T-ara's "rolypoly" was so popular, but it didn't create much influence and repercussions, because it hit the West Coast Highway Song Festival of "Infinite Challenge".
Although they finally won the first place in the Korean music source annual list, the actual effect was far less than expected.
At this time, T-ara will not appear again, "Rolypoly" has not yet come out, and a tragedy has been shifted because of the influence of Choi Jung-won.
I believe that when Choi Jung-won writes "rolypoly" for GirlsGeneration again in the future, he will really soar.
However, in the face of the upcoming return of GirlsGeneration, Choi Jung-won's work is not this retro masterpiece.
"Crycry, what's that name?" Taeyeon asked, holding the sheet in her hand, a little confused.
All the members of GirlsGeneration who gathered around her, without exception, were all the members of GirlsGeneration except for Yuna.
Everyone knows that if GirlsGeneration doesn't return, as long as it returns, the title song must be written by Cui Chang.
So the girls were not surprised by Choi Jung-won's arrival. But what they didn't expect was that Cui Zhengyuan gave such a strange song title.
Fortunately, they had also seen all kinds of strange song titles provided by Cui Zhengyuan before, and their immunity had already been trained.
After reading the score together, Ji-yeon had a bitter face. "It's this kind of lyric again?"
Taeyeon patted her and said dissatisfiedly, "Isn't the lyric bad?" In this way, we can show our superior singing skills. ”
She is the lead singer of GirlsGeneration, and she is also famous for her singing skills, so she likes lyric songs very much.
Instead, Ji-yeon is part of the group's lead dancer. Rather than singing, I hope to show myself through dance. (To be continued......)
