Chapter Eighty-Four: The Attack on a Cold Rainy Night
Twenty days have passed in December.
Although Jiang Kan is one of the participating singers on the rookie championship list, his energy is not much on it.
Instead, I diligently study all kinds of theoretical knowledge required to be a singer and a composer every day, and try to put them into practice.
As for his ranking, he feels that as a pure newcomer, he is already very satisfied to be in the top ten.
On the contrary, there is one thing that he has always kept in mind.
"Hey, Zhiheng~"
During the lunch break, he was half-lying on a single sofa in the lounge and dialed Liu Zhiheng's phone.
"Hey, Brother Kan, what's the matter?"
The sound on the other end was noisy, and there were toasts and clinking glasses, as if it was at some kind of dinner.
"Hmm...... There's nothing else to do, I just want to ask, how is Zhou Dongzhou's boss and their band doing now? And the song "Cold Rainy Night", did they come in handy? ”
That's right, what he has been thinking about in the past two days is "Cold Rainy Night" that opened the treasure chest.
According to the system, this song seems to be on the other side of the world, it is a song sung by a very, very famous band, which has won great achievements and social repercussions, and also has a high historical status in the music industry.
I don't know what kind of feedback I will get after handing it over to Boss Zhou.
Jiang Kan was looking forward to it.
"Ha, Brother Kan, you are this song...... Ah, wait a minute, I'll tell you somewhere quieter. ”
Then the phone was silent for a while, it should be Liu Zhiheng who left the place to eat.
"Hey, Brother Kan, let me tell you, your song "Cold Rainy Night" is really amazing!"
His voice came over the phone again, and his tone sounded very excited and excited!
"How...... What happened? ”
Jiang Kan was confused, the song had been sent for a long time and there had been no response, why did he suddenly "die" when he asked?
"Ha, Boss Zhou and his band are busy with this song during this time!"
"In order to get the best out of this song, they rehearsed for more than a week before they started the official recording!"
"When I was officially recording, I also invited a special photographer to shoot the whole process and make a MV, which was to be released simultaneously with the song!"
The more Liu Zhiheng spoke, the more excited he became, and his voice gradually became louder, and he could hear his current happy mood from the microphone.
"You also know that in this era, bands have gradually declined, and singer groups of two or more people have gradually disappeared from the music scene, and they are all solo singers releasing albums and singles."
"So at the beginning, this song that was released as a band didn't get much response from the market."
"At the beginning, the 24-hour sales volume was only a few thousand times, and this was all the result of the publicity launched by Boss Zhou's own connections."
"At first, he was also a little discouraged, thinking that how could such a good song have such a small sales, and asked people everywhere to publicize it."
"But on the third day, it seems that a well-known self-media musician on the Internet heard this song, and then tasted it and helped him forward it......"
"And then the fans who follow him are also some niche music appreciators in the market, or some people who are as old as you and me, who grew up from the most glorious era of the band in the eighties and nineties!"
The song's retro melody evokes memories of their youth and nostalgia for the days when bands dominated the music scene...... It really blew up this song overnight! ”
Liu Zhiheng is also a music lover himself, although he does not have any musical cells himself, nor does he have any interest in musical instruments.
But when I usually have free time, I always like to play games while listening to music as a pastime, and even when I go to bed, I have to listen to a few favorite songs before I can turn off the computer and go to bed satisfied.
And his favorite, in addition to those well-known singers, also contains the songs of some well-known bands in this world.
So now when it comes to the band, it's also related.
Although the era of the band has passed, many songs and many memories still exist in his memories.
"It's amazing for this group of people to get nostalgic, they are in their thirties and forties, a group of people in the prime of life, and their economic strength is also the strongest time in their lives, if you want to say that luxury cars and watches dare not be consumed, but they can't afford a song for a few dollars?"
Jiang Kan listened to the other party's words silently, and his heart was also evoked this nostalgia for the past youth, why didn't he have the idea of playing the guitar because he listened to the songs of some bands full of passion and ideals.
It's a pity that his family is not very wealthy, and he doesn't have much time and energy to learn guitar and drums, and more time is occupied by his studies.
This is also a difficult mental journey that many middle-aged people have experienced.
For the sake of life, I gave up my ideals and interests, and devoted myself to reading, reading, and reading.
But now suddenly there is a song sung by a band, in such a nostalgic style, and its quality is so high, that the fire that has been buried in their hearts for many years is rekindled!
"Haha, you probably can't guess how much this song will sell after a week!"
Liu Zhiheng bought a pass and let Jiang Kan guess.
"How much? 20,000 downloads? ”
His guess is already very unconservative, after all, this is not a song released by a big-name music company, there is no market publicity, no well-known media publicity, no self-media comments and hype, and no big-name singers sing.
All the people in the band are anonymous ordinary people, they have no fame, no connections, no exposure.
It's just their passion for music, their tireless pursuit of art, and their nostalgia for the time when the band dominated the music scene.
"Ha, Brother Kan, you underestimate the charm of your own song, guess again!"
Liu Zhiheng let out a small voice of disdain, obviously the number was lower.
"Uh...... Thirty thousand? ”
Jiang Kan was stunned, why, is the ability of the wild band so strong? 20,000 downloads is already the average number of downloads of an average rookie singer's new song in the first month.
They were able to break this number, could it be that they have surpassed the strength level of rookie singers?
"Thirty thousand? Alas, Brother Kan, you really have no imagination~"
Liu Zhiheng had a cheap smile in his voice, and he knew that Jiang Kan would definitely not guess what kind of terrifying data the number of downloads of this song had reached this week!
