The matter of sugar candy gave Chen Beiming a wake-up call.

Mother's Day is coming, and he, a literary soldier, should also do a great job.

He was thinking so in his heart, and Lin Banshan, CEO of Apple Music, called him: "Xiaoshan, you don't want to participate in that event that we did with Apple Music, why haven't there been any movement until now?" ”

"Activities? What activities? Chen Beiming was confused.

"Oh-" Lin Banshan suddenly patted his head: "I remember, you have been out of town for the past few days, and you may not have paid too much attention." That's right, isn't Mother's Day coming, and we, at Apple Music and the Music Association, have held a singer-songwriter contest and a singing contest, inviting singers from all over the country and the world to create works related to Mother's Day, so I want to ask you, how is it, are you interested in participating? This event is very big, and many old rivers and lakes have been dispatched! And there are a lot of talented newcomers, very grand, the final award ceremony we are going to the Great Hall of the People to do! ”

Lin Banshan boasted profusely.

When Chen Beiming heard this, his heart moved, and after thinking about it, he said, "Okay, then I'll also participate!" ”

"Really?" Lin Banshan is overjoyed.

"Really."

"Okay, then I'll release the news!" Lin Banshan Road.

"Okay."

So, that night, at around eight o'clock, a message came out on Apple Music: the famous songwriter Xiaoshan will participate in the 2000 Mother's Day singer-songwriter contest.

As soon as this news came out, the entire Apple Music boiled at once, and various forums were lively.

"Brother Xiaoshan is coming to participate in the competition, it's fun!"

"yes, yes, we have a good song to listen to again!"

"What kind of song do you think Xiaoshan Ge will create?"

"I want him to create a song of any genre, one for my dad, one for my little niece, and I want one too!"

"Huh? Your requirements are too high, three generations! ”

"Everyone has a mother, my dad has it, I have it, my little niece has it! Why, no? ”

Fans are talking.

This singer-songwriter contest is already very exciting, Apple Music doesn't know what big tricks it used, and invited many singer-songwriters who have retired from the rivers and lakes for many years out of the mountain, and they also tapped a lot of talented newcomers, so this competition is very lively, not only the major music media have reported, but even CCTV's literary channel has also done a special interview.

Now that Chen Beiming is about to join again, this big melee is even more interesting.

"Little Mountain Song, hurry up and come up with a new song, and teach the young people of today what it means to be a genius singer-songwriter!" Someone spoke in Chen Beiming's discussion forum.

As soon as this topic came out, it immediately received the support of many fans.

"That's right, Brother Xiaoshan, these newcomers who debuted this year are crazy, give them some color and take a look!"

"The one I can't get used to the most is the one named Xu Fei, who is so arrogant that she is ashamed to say in her blog that she is the most talented creator in the history of Xia Guo. Brother Kid,-her! ”

"Yes,-her! I'm too tired of that woman, too arrogant! ”

In the midst of the hustle and bustle, on May 5, 2000, when no one in the fans was prepared, Chen Beiming's first song about Mother's Day was uploaded - "Only Mother is Good in the World".

Capital, somewhere in an apartment.

A nineteen-year-old girl named Xu Fei was concentrating on writing songs in her study.

At this time, her good girlfriend and agent trotted in: "Xu Fei Xu Fei, go online quickly, Xiaoshan's new song has been uploaded?" ”

Xu Fei straightened up: "Really? ”

"What my friend called me to tell me should be true."

"Good!" Xu Fei nodded, then turned on the computer as fast as possible, connected to the Internet, and entered Apple Music.

"There is only a mother in the world?" Seeing the name of the song, Xu Fei was stunned for a moment, and then laughed out loud: "Brother Xiaoshan's song is really unexpected." ”

Then, she clicked on the audition button.

Soon, the melody was playing out of the computer's speakers.

"Huh? Didn't he sing it? Hearing the first sentence "There are only mothers in the world, but motherless children are like grass", Xu Fei couldn't help but be stunned, and then opened his eyes and looked at the introduction of the song carefully, only to know that this song was really not sung by Chen Beiming, but he composed the lyrics and music.

"Brother Xiaoshan, you won't dare to participate in the singer-songwriter competition, right? What do I expect to compare to you? If you don't participate, then I don't have an opponent, don't I? Xu Fei muttered.

Next to him, the agent smiled and said, "I think he must have listened to your song so he decided to participate in this way!" ”

There are several ways to participate in this Mother's Day Song Contest, one is to participate in the competition with only works, such as writing a lyricist to write a song, composing a song, or directly creating a song, the other is a singing contest, that is, the singer sings someone else's song, records it and uploads it, and the third is a singer-songwriter competition, writing and singing by himself.

The third type is, of course, the most talented.

Xu Fei participated in the third type.

So when he saw that Chen Beiming just uploaded a song he wrote, but the singer was not him, Xu Fei smiled.

"Brother Xiaoshan, it seems that you are not very good! The future music scene really depends on us! ”

She thought smugly.

On the Internet, netizens also talked about it.

"This song "Only Mom is Good in the World" is really well written!"

"yes, I just listened to a few words and couldn't help but come out of my tears!"

"The little girl who sang this song is also very good, this song is so brilliant, she is indispensable!"

"Brother Xiaoshan is really extraordinary, and he is amazing as soon as he makes a move!"

Everyone gave the song a high rating.

However, the download ranking of this song only rushed into the top 50 in the end.

There are many other good songs, and, most importantly, this is a children's song, and most of Apple Music's users are young people over the age of eighteen, and although these people also think this song is good, they don't think it suits them, at least it's not a song that can make people cycle a single song.

Xu Fei looked at the ranking on Apple Music again, she was still ranked first, with 13 million downloads, while Chen Beiming's song "Only Mother is Good in the World" had only more than 5 million downloads.

Moreover, the upward momentum of her songs is still unabated, but Chen Beiming's children's song, the download increment has shown a downward trend.

"Brother Xiaoshan, it seems that you are not very good, do you?" Xu Fei smiled and muttered to herself.

Next to him, the agent said: "Of course, it's the 21st century after all, the fans have been renewed, and the current fans are very different from before, otherwise, why would those older generation singers retire one after another?" Xiaoshan is also a singer of the last century, and it is not very popular now, which is normal! ”
