Chapter 191 Su Zhi was also urged to get married one day
The popularity of "Love Song" is frighteningly high.
If it was actually just releasing songs, there might not be such a high level of discussion.
The main credit comes from the song MV released along with it.
Xu Kong and Su Zhi star together, which is really attractive to netizens.
Even if you are not a CP fan of Su Xu, you are still very interested even if you have a mentality of eating melon.
Of course, the quality of the mv itself is also very critical.
Although Su Zhi's acting skills are indeed not very good, fortunately, there are not too many scenes in it.
Even ordinary netizens can find some resonance in this song and MV.
"The filming was great. Xu Kong is indeed a professional. This MV is definitely one of the most matching MVs I have seen in the past few years."
"Perhaps it's because I thought of the girl I had a crush on in high school. After reading it, I just felt a sigh of relief."
"I would exchange a whole universe for a red bean. The lyrics are also worth appreciating. They are so well written."
The comment section of mv is almost full of positive reviews.
At this time, the number of views of the video has exceeded 10 million, and the number of comments has reached more than 50,000.
You know, less than two hours have passed since the release.
Of course, after watching the MV, the one who couldn’t hold my tongue the whole time was Xu Kong and Su Zhi’s CP party.
There is no way, the two of them have not been in the same frame for such a long time, but this time they use such a big move, which is very difficult for the CP party.
It really feels like the Chinese New Year.
"The two of them look so good in school uniforms, I suggest they lock them up!"
"When I think about the eight songs that Xu Kong wrote for Su Zhi, I can't stop being excited."
"Wait a minute, the male protagonist in the MV has a crush on the female protagonist. Is Xu Kong trying to use this MV to express his feelings to Su Zhi?"
It has to be said that many netizens are indeed very knowledgeable.
Even if Xu Kong and Su Zhi were in public, they would hardly show too much intimacy.
But they can still find a lot of material that makes them happy.
On the other hand, "Love Song", as the second song of Su Zhi's new album, is very popular and has also caused quite a stir in the music circle.
"It's too exaggerated. I feel like Su Zhi's new album will really become a god."
"It can be seen that Xu Kong used almost all his abilities to help Su Zhi produce this album. If I were another singer, I would probably drool with envy."
"Whether it is the previous "The Wind Rises" or this "Love Song", it would be really unimaginable if the new songs in the subsequent albums maintain this quality."
"No wonder Xu Kong couldn't release his own album. This "Su Xu" must have consumed most of his energy, right?"
Whether it's traditional music critics or music self-media like Fat Bird, it's almost universally praised.
In other words, it’s not just good reviews, it’s more of a surprise.
The main reason is that Su Zhi's new album this time has only released two songs, but just looking at the quality, there is a tendency to become a god album.
The level of discussion is naturally quite high.
Of course, it's all about blowing, but it was only two songs, and not many people opened champagne at halftime, including Fat Bird, who all showed restraint.
Even if they don't open the champagne at halftime, most of their thoughts are the same at this time.
That is, even if the quality of the songs in the follow-up "Su Xu" is relatively average, there is a high probability that the best album this year will be Su Zhi's.
As for Yang Jiangjie, who had always been said to have a high probability of winning the prize, he is no longer favored by most people.
As a newcomer, Yang Jiangjie's first album is indeed amazing, and it contains some quite genius works.
But compared with Su Zhi, suddenly there is no advantage.
Some people even analyzed it very carefully.
Now Yang Jiangjie's only hope is that the quality of all the remaining songs in Su Zhi's later albums is so bad that they can't be listened to.
This way he can win the prize.
And everyone knows that this is almost impossible.
The album of any diva may have little popularity and no so-called hit singles.
But the average quality will not be so bad that it is particularly outrageous.
Even Su Zhi's previous album, which was relatively low-rated, didn't reach that level.
What's more, this time, the album's producer is Xu Kong.
He was also responsible for the creation of the songs.
Looking back at all the songs Xu Kong has written in the past, let alone the poor quality, there are almost none of the more common mediocre songs.
As for this result, the most unacceptable one is of course Yang Jiangjie himself.
It was just two songs, and his album, which was already guaranteed to be the best, changed hands like this?
For those music critics and media who praised him in the past, Yang Jiangjie went from feeling that they were discerning to now feeling bored or even hating them.
These people don’t understand anything and don’t know what they are evaluating every day.
After the program "Autumn Concert" was aired, it was obvious that almost all the attention was focused on Su Zhi and Xu Kong.
It can even be said to be focused on Su Zhi’s MV this time.
Not to mention the other guests on the show, even the show itself is not highly discussed.
That's right, this is already the second time that Yang Jiangjie has participated in the show with Xu Kong and has completely become the background.
Of course, this time it was slightly better than last time.
At the very least, some music critics or self-media will mention him.
It's just that what he said was not what he wanted to hear.
"Jiang Jie, do you know what is the most important thing in your profession?"
The agent had long since noticed something was wrong with Yang Jiangjie's condition.
Especially after participating in this variety show and meeting Xu Kong in the first episode, it became more obvious.
"What?"
"Talent? Hard work?"
Yang Jiangjie was obviously stunned for a moment after hearing the question.
In his opinion, these are definitely the most important things.
In terms of talent, he thinks he is not inferior to anyone.
The only shortcoming he currently admits is that he has too little live experience and there is still a lot of room for improvement in his singing skills.
But he believes that he will not lose to others in terms of hard work.
Except for participating in programs or answering announcements, Yang Jiangjie spent most of the rest of his time in the singing studio.
I just don’t want to be criticized by the audience for my unstable performance and poor singing skills during a certain performance in the future.
Yang Jiangjie's manager, Sister Xia, shook her head lightly at this time.
Then he said:
"Neither."
"The most important thing is to keep a calm mind."
Jiying Media signs more than 300 new singers a year, many of whom are highly talented.
There are also many who become famous overnight.
But there are not many of them who can go on and remain popular for many years.
No way, the entertainment industry is such a place.
It’s possible that your colleague who was taking vocal lessons at the company with you yesterday will immediately increase his followers to millions within a few days, and start accepting performances worth hundreds of thousands a game, or commercial activities worth millions.
And you also know in your heart that the other person is actually inferior to you in every aspect.
My creative ability is not good, my singing skills are even worse, and I’m not even as handsome as you.
But it’s him who’s angry, not you.
Situations like this are all too common in this industry.
Therefore, many newcomers will go to extremes if they are not careful.
It doesn't even have much to do with the brokerage company, it's just that I can't think about it.
Strictly speaking, Yang Jiangjie's success has been quite smooth.
It is estimated that there will not be many new singers with his starting point for many years.
But just because of this, it is difficult to accept that you are not as good as others.
Whether it’s popularity, external evaluation, etc.
In fact, it is too common for these so-called media and music critics to praise you one day and belittle you the next.
If it were other veterans in the industry, they probably wouldn't take it seriously at all. But Yang Jiangjie had just entered the industry, and his mental endurance was still a bit weak.
"Normal Heart"
Looking at the manager who left without explaining much, Yang Jiangjie fell into silence at this moment.
But before he thought about it for two seconds, he cursed unconsciously in his heart: "Bullshit normality!"
Doesn't this require him to admit that he is inferior to others?
Obviously, Yang Jiangjie, who was as ambitious as the sky, couldn't accept this statement at all.
Then he picked up his mobile phone and wrote a short composition under a certain music critic's news using his Weibo account.
"Autumn Concert" is broadcast at noon.
There is no way, after all, tonight is Mango's own Mid-Autumn Festival party.
This time it is another specially recorded Mid-Autumn Festival special, but it can only be adjusted to broadcast at noon.
As for Xu Kong at this time, he and Su Zhi had just finished watching the program in each other's studio.
"Cloud Music and Penguin Music contacted me again"
Yuan Yinan walked in and said.
Maybe it's because Xu Kong has been staying here all this time.
At this moment, what she subconsciously looked at was not Su Zhi, but Xu Kong.
"Wait a little longer."
Xu Kong still had the same attitude as before.
I plan to wait for the first four or so songs of Su Zhi's follow-up album to be released before discussing the copyright fees with them.
"But their offer."
Yuan Yinan hesitated.
In her opinion, both parties have already offered quite high royalties at this time.
And it can obviously be lifted upwards.
And after the release of the MV for "Love Song", the popularity has been unprecedentedly high.
If the remaining songs from Su Zhi's album are released later, they may not be as popular.
This is obviously the best time to discuss copyright with the platform.
However, seeing that Xu Kong did not waver at all, Yuan Yinan did not continue.
In addition to the fact that Xu Kong himself is the copyright owner, there are also some previous ideas and operations of the other party, which have indeed achieved quite good results.
Although Yuan Yinan is not convinced by Xu Kong now, he will not underestimate him either.
Especially Xu Kong's ideas in marketing, many times she didn't know where Xu Kong got so many ideas.
Although Xu Kong was considered a new top idol before, how could he know Xu Kong so well after he had just debuted?
"Are you leaving?"
Yuan Yinan was stunned for a moment when she saw Xu Kong starting to pack things.
"I have something else to do."
Xu Kong replied calmly.
"Just follow the previously decided plan."
Based on the current popularity of the music video, there shouldn't be much to worry about in the future.
Of course Xu Kong has made preparations. For example, after the new song and MV are released, the popularity is average, how to increase promotion in the future, etc.
"Do you want to have dinner together tonight?"
After Yuan Yinan left, it was Su Zhi who spoke this time.
After all, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Su Zhi had no plans to return to her hometown, so she naturally hoped to spend it with Xu Kong.
Of course, it is quite rare for him to take the initiative to issue an invitation.
"Dinner is fine, but I might have something to do in the evening"
Xu Kong replied.
"Just have a meal with me."
Su Zhi took the initiative to add something.
"Okay then"
Xu Kong agreed and simply stopped leaving. He continued to stay in the studio and record songs with Su Zhi.
Of course, he still sent a message to Zhu Yu in private, saying that he would go there a little later.
After all, Zhu Yu had already been promised before, and Xu Kong still had no intention of breaking the promise.
Originally, Xu Kong thought it would be Su Zhi and the entire studio eating together.
But I didn't expect that it would be him and Su Zhi in the end.
“Working overtime during the Mid-Autumn Festival is something that can’t be helped.”
"There is no need to force them to eat with the boss."
Su Zhi explained.
"I didn't expect you to be a conscientious boss."
Xu Kong said with a smile.
But he wasn't surprised.
Su Zhi was just used to not letting her emotions fluctuate too much, and she had that cold face most of the time.
But in fact, I can still empathize with other people on the inside.
I just don't like to show it.
Because they don’t want to go out to eat, and both of them have a bit of a poor cooking skills.
The last thing I can choose is hot pot which is not too difficult to operate.
“Is it too spicy?”
Xu Kong noticed that Su Zhi's face was slightly red and couldn't help but ask.
"A little."
At this moment, Su Zhi's cell phone suddenly rang.
Noticing Xu Kong's questioning look, she calmly replied:
"It's my mother."
Xu Kong was stunned for a moment.
But before he could react, Su Zhi had already picked up.
"Xiao Zhi, have you eaten?"
A middle-aged female voice came, a very familiar question from parents.
"Eating."
Listening to Su Zhi and her parents chatting about home affairs, Xu Kong didn't dare to breathe.
But what surprised him was that Su Zhi's mother suddenly asked:
"Xiao Zhi, I see that everyone on the Internet is talking about you and that boy named Xu Kong"
Hearing this question, Su Zhi subconsciously looked at Xu Kong, who was sitting opposite her.
Then he replied: "Nothing, we are friends."
"I think that boy is quite good and handsome, if he is suitable."
Su Zhi: "Mom!"
Xu Kong almost laughed out loud at this moment.
He really didn't expect that Su Zhi, a singer, would be forced to get married one day.
Although he is only twenty-five or six, he is not too old, but in the eyes of his parents' generation, it seems that it is indeed time to push him.
Su Zhi glared at Xu Kong who was snickering.
"Uncle and aunt, happy Mid-Autumn Festival!"
Su Zhi was startled by Xu Kong's voice.
Then I realized that this guy had sneaked up behind me without knowing when.
At this time, she was bending over, sticking her head out and waving to her parents on the phone.
"Are you that Xu Kong?"
Although Su Zhi's parents don't look young anymore, they seem to be in good spirits.
"Then let's hang up first and won't disturb you young people."
After seeing Xu Kong and chatting briefly, Su Zhi's parents hurriedly hung up the video with joy.
