Why is it that singers nowadays are popular to release singles instead of releasing entire albums like they used to?

There are many reasons for this.

But the main thing is these two.

The cost of producing an album is huge, the preparation period is extremely long, and it may not always pay for itself.

Big-name singers who have achieved fame don't want to be so tired, and rookie singers can't afford to do it if they don't have money in their pockets.

And then there is another reason:

The popularity of the traffic era is the most important, and releasing a single can ensure the popularity of the singer's traffic to the greatest extent, and the popularity of traffic is no different from money in the current era.

Therefore, the fact that there are fewer and fewer singers who release albums is also in line with the background of the times, and it is understandable.

But that doesn't mean Lin Qingyuan has to do the same.

His plan is still to make an album.

If a musician wants to develop better, it is impossible to only release singles for the rest of his life, and albums are a necessity.

After all, streaming media marketing is only important at the beginning, and if you don't release an album, it will be difficult to fully convey your music concept, and you will not be able to form your own fan base and stabilize your coffee position in the music world.

Moreover, in Europe and the United States, where the music market is highly developed and the audience's aesthetics are more mature and independent, it is not as easy as in China to fool fans.

Like those signed singers of large companies in Europe and the United States, because they have the company's publicity resources, they can directly sign radio orders, streaming media marketing, various TV, podcast promotion, etc., so they are still the same as traditional, mainly releasing albums, and using singles as the precursor of the album.

Lin Qingyuan also planned to follow this path.

Although he can only be regarded as a newcomer to the music scene now, he has sufficient resources and financial resources to support him to do so, and time is the most expensive thing for him.

So next year it must be an instant hit!

And the album became his only choice.

Yan Jun sent a demo of the song from North America, and Lin Qingyuan spent one night listening to all of them.

Sure enough, you get what you pay for.

The overall quality is very good.

And even if there are a few songs in it, he really can't get anything good, but that's the reality

Aesthetic differences between regions can never be erased, so as long as European and American listeners like it.

Anyway, he didn't plan to do the best of every song in the first place, so that listeners all over the world can enjoy it.

That's something that only the god of music can do, and he's just an opportunist.

After repeated comparisons, Lin Qingyuan temporarily selected eleven songs from the first batch of demos as alternative tracks for his debut album.

1.Blinding Lights（The Weeknd）

2.Die For You（The Weeknd）

Pains（Nathan Trent）

's Hilarious（Charlie Puth）

Your Tears（The Weeknd）

f（Nicky Youre）

's Your Perfect（Jamie M）

8.Be Somebody（Thousand）

Of You（Mason Murphy）

It Was（Harry Styles）

Coast（OneRepublic）

(Actually, the demo doesn't have a song title, but for ease of reading, the name is given for the time being.) ）

It stands to reason that these eleven songs can actually be released on albums, but Lin Qingyuan obviously wants more.

He intends to skip the rookie stage of accumulating fame and go straight to a big album covering sixteen songs.

In this way, you only need to add a few more singles to start a regular concert for two hours.

Concerts and world tours can further enhance his global popularity and influence.

Therefore, the song selection process is far from over, and more new singles with excellent quality need to be added in the future.

Of course, perhaps after the release of this album, some listeners will think that the style of these singles is not uniform.

emmm: That's not a problem at all.

The style is unified, relying on the album to convey its own musical concept, this is the way to play twenty years ago.

The current album is, to put it bluntly, a carrier that collects more than a dozen singles together.

It's not as many rules as it used to be.

As for profit?

Although the album was not dismantled and developed to make money.

But for Lin Qingyuan, money is something outside the body, and only by seizing time can we create more value.

Instead of making a quick buck, it is better to be a god.

There are many ways to make money after laying the godhead.

Think more about everything and take a long-term view.

Time enters the last month of 2021.

Even if Lin Qingyuan honestly stayed in the crew and filmed seriously, he still couldn't miss the task sent by the team.

said that it was the Thai fan meeting held half a month later, and a fan who had liked Lin Qingyuan since 18 years wrote a Thai song and wanted to sing it on the same stage with him.

Lin Qingyuan read the lyrics, and then had a general understanding of the pronunciation of Thai, and felt that his language talent was so good, maybe he could try to learn it, so. And so the new mission came out.

To put it bluntly, he did it all on his own.

But what can be done?

The concubines are so supportive and like him, if they have to refuse even this request, it feels a little unreasonable.

Besides

The transformation work "The Wind Rises in Luoyang", which has been pinned on by countless fans, has finally ushered in its premiere.

It's a pity that this big drama starring Huang Xuan, Wang Yibo, and Song Qian, with huge investment costs and a luxurious cast, did not achieve the effect that Kiwi Guo wanted.

Douban has a score of 7.0, which looks pretty good.

But with the influx of a large number of passers-by who did not wear fans, the score soon slipped all the way to 6.5.

As we all know, a costume drama with six points on Douban is equal to a modern drama with five points, so there is no need to say what the word-of-mouth quality of this drama is, everyone who understands it.

Fans can watch it happily, and serious viewers who really want to find a good drama to chase should not join in the fun.

However, if the audience doesn't watch it, it doesn't mean that those bloggers who specialize in internal entertainment film and television complaining don't watch it.

Just kidding, it's good material to deliver to your door.

How could they let it go so easily?

Unless the drama party pays him privately, it is impossible for them to watch this popularity drain away.

[Create a precedent for blind acting. 】

[After watching other people's popular science on Weibo, he filmed 60 days less than the serious male and female protagonists because of the recording of variety shows and other activities, and then his fans are still tearing the male and female protagonists to play additional dramas. It's amazing how it works! 】

[I thought how handsome I was when I looked at the faces of those, but when the camera turned to the front face, my eyes instantly received 10,000 irreversible crits]

[Domestic dramas have liked this kind of flattering performance too much over the years, the music is lit in slow motion, everyone exclaims, and the emotions are mobilized to the extreme, as soon as the camera turns, how exaggerated the front is, how embarrassing the back is, and he himself looks bad, and then it is a killing. 】

[I'm really going to die laughing!] I just watched Lin Qingyuan's Xu Fengnian Reuters on Douyin, and I was so amazed that I couldn't speak, but as soon as I turned my head, I immediately saw Wang's big horse face. was also attacked to the point that he couldn't speak, is this the strength of Brother Ji? Horror. 】

[Brother Absolute has changed his name, he is now called Brother Eruption, every day is either this outbreak or that explosion, I feel that he can act seven or eight times in every episode. ] 】

[His whole person is too dull and too wooden, I don't know if the character itself is stupid, I only know that he looks very ugly, his nose is big and fat, and his cheeks are swollen so big, Lan Wangji Xie Yun Baili Hongyi is uglier than the other, and it is recommended here not to take the ancient costume. 】

The complaints of netizens are more violent than the other.

I'm afraid the little motorcycle is angry at this time.

But what can be done?

The play was performed by their brother himself.

So they can only find another way and take some bizarre ways to help Wang Yibo's performance whitewash.

[It is recommended that Heizi watch twenty episodes before commenting, otherwise it will be really ridiculous, Wang Yibo's Baili Hongyi wood and stone heart, cold, and impersonal, because he is unrestrained, so he reviews various delicacies, and the "Shang Ke" given is regarded as a treasure by the merchants, and he naturally has no good face for being forced to marry. At that time, the only wave in his life was that he needed to marry a woman he didn't love, so he resisted, didn't want to, and kept a straight face! 】

Regardless of whether such a strange whitewashing angle is effective or not, it is true that most melon-eating netizens are amused anyway, I really have to sigh that fans are full of talents, and it is also amazing to be able to make up so many things!

The process of waiting for the play is always boring and boring.

So after Lin Qingyuan read netizens' sharp comments on Brother Neck on Weibo, he turned to ins to see what news his foreign friends had posted.

TaylorSwift: [Don't say it, don't say it!] But I still have to say, I'm 32 years old! My good friend Alana is also 30 years old. Don't worry, we did a nucleic acid test for everyone! Thank you for your birthday wishes and love you~】

Seeing this ins, which had just been sent out for a few minutes, Lin Qingyuan reacted that today is December 13th.

And it was just after 12 o'clock at noon, which meant that the time in the United States had also come to the 13th.

Taylor's birthday is today.

It's been almost three months since the two of them last met, and they usually don't chat much on ins, causing Lin Qingyuan to forget about it.

Thankfully, it's not too late to react.

Otherwise, this valuable connection is likely to slowly disconnect over time.

Lin: [Happy Birthday Blonde!] 】

Tay: [Wow Lin! I feel like I haven't heard from you for a long time, thank you for your birthday wishes, how are you doing in China recently? How is it all good? 】

Lin: [Not bad, but I think there's one thing I should tell you, and that's that I'm already working on my first album in English, and I'll be coming to the United States in January next year to start all the preparations.] 】

Tay: [Really? Amazing！ The news is unbelievable! Well, I have to admit that I can't wait to see you in New York or LA. And your first album in English! And then what I also want you to know is that Lin is always available if you need help with anything. 】

Lin: [Taylor, you're really nice. 】

Tay: [You're right! But I'm not like this to everyone, because Lin you are different from the vast majority of people in this world, just like the song I wrote to you, your cold temperament makes me love and hate at the same time, you are so noble and moving, I can't say anything to your impeccable face! 】

Lin: [Okay, thank you for the compliment]

When Lin Qingyuan, who was in front of the mobile phone screen, saw this message, he immediately fell into an awkward silence.

It seems that this sister has been drinking a lot tonight.

He felt that Taylor, who was having a 32nd birthday party with friends in New York, might have been completely drunk.

Otherwise, if it is so straightforward and insensitive, even the old beauty, who has always been extremely open to emotions and sexuality, is not something that everyone can say without changing their faces.

But calm down and think about it.

Actually, that's it, it's just a regular level.

has been in this circle for so many years, what kind of meaty words and meaty scenes have he never seen?

There were even a few young female stars who came to him on WeChat out of nowhere, and sent him photos of roast chicken in cool clothes, wanting to ask him out to play the script to kill!

Of course, he couldn't have replied to them.

After all, although he is not so single-minded, and even a little abusive, he still knows very well which women can't be touched and which women will be in trouble if they do.

December 17th.

Lin Qingyuan finally asked the director for leave to go out, ending the 28-day "crew penance life".

However, 28 days of retreat and filming can be regarded as penance

It's ironic enough.

But this is the status quo in the entertainment industry.

After entering the era of savage growth, the total volume of the domestic entertainment economy has expanded rapidly, so that the entire entertainment industry has money to pick up everywhere, and everyone is making quick money.

This is the general trend of the times, and it is not something that can be easily changed and reversed by just two people.

The first is the shooting of Lancôme's New Year's advertisement.

In addition to him, this year's spokesperson for the camera also includes Lily Collins of the United Kingdom and Zhou Qiuyu of Huaguo.

The filming process was very smooth, all completed in one afternoon, but the shooting time and shooting location were separated, and only when the final editing was completed, the three spokespersons would be in the same frame through technical means.

"The list of nominees for the Golden Deer Award at this year's Changchun Film Festival is out, boss, you have three films shortlisted."

On the way to the dining place, the little assistant woke up Lin Qingyuan, who was staring at the night scene outside the window.

"Huh? Which three? ”

"Changjin Lake", "Doctor Huaguo" and "Send You a Little Red Flower". The assistant replied.

"Didn't get the actor nomination?" Lin Qingyuan doesn't know much about the Changchun Film Festival and the Golden Deer Award, although the Golden Deer Award seems to have a high gold content in the mainland film industry.

Let's briefly talk about the gold content of the Chinese Film Awards.

First of all, the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers watch is undoubtedly the most gold-rich first gear, although he is more or less a little problematic, but he is already the tallest of the short.

Secondly, the Golden Goblet Award at the Magic City International Film Festival, the Golden Deer Award at the Changchun Film Festival, the Temple of Heaven Award at the Beijing International Film Festival, and the second tier of the Directors Guild Annual Award.

As for the third tranche, it is mainly some local awards, such as the Hong Kong International Film Festival, the Macao International Film Festival, and the Beijing University Student Film Festival, and the Golden Lotus actor Lin Qingyuan won in Macau two years ago is also among them.

Like that, what Huading.

The pure pheasant award, the dogs don't go, but some traffic fools fans in order to win a few awards to facilitate team marketing, but they run to receive the award.

It's not a shame

"The list of nominees for the Golden Deer Awards will only announce the shortlisted films, and will not announce the nominations for the actor awards, but there will still be an actor and actress when the awards are finally presented."

"And how is the intensity of competition this year?"

Lin Qingyuan said that he didn't want to win the award, it must be fake, after all, no matter how famous the Golden Deer Award is, it is still one of the top five important film awards in China.

For him as a philatelic collector, there's nothing more refreshing than collecting trophy after trophy.

"There should be no difference with the Golden Rooster, although there is an extra Changjin Lake, but it should not affect the final result." The little assistant paused when he said this, pursed his lips before continuing: "Because Liu Ye, the actor of "Island Keeper", happens to be from Changchun, so."

"Okay, I got it"

Lin Qingyuan sighed helplessly, he really shouldn't have any expectations for these local awards.

Of course, he also knows that if he really puts himself on the same level as that group of veteran actors, and compares his acting skills with real knives and guns, he has almost no chance of winning.

It's like basketball fans say that Zhan Huang doesn't have a real ring.

Fan circle fans also said that Lin Huang did not have a real golden rooster.

The gold content of his two actors is really limited.

Because last year's situation was actually very special.

Affected by righteousness, the entire film industry has come to a standstill, and someone needs to stand up and save the market at this time.

And Lin Qingyuan was the one who was pushed out.

To put it simply, it is to create gods.

If the top artists can play a role model and publicity, it will have a positive impact on the entire industry.

There are many candidates for the new generation, but Lin Qingyuan is the one who has no reason to be defeated.

And so what happened next

In September, a hundred flowers were crowned emperors, in November, the golden rooster was crowned emperors, and the little red flowers on New Year's Day carried a box office of 2.5 billion, which single-handedly raised the public's enthusiasm for watching movies.

Last year's Lin Qingyuan was in the limelight for a while.

But when everything returns to the way it was, and he is no longer needed to be at the front, then it will be up to each to do his own thing. (End of chapter)
