Chapter 316 "Exaggeration"(2/2)
The long-term power of "Chrysanthemum Terrace" has begun to show, and it has been stable at the third place on the hot song list. According to the long-term popularity trend, it may even overtake "One Person for Life" again.
This puts more and more pressure on Mailin Records.
Because of the two chart-topping songs "Chrysanthemum Terrace" and "Because of Love", the long-term popularity remains high and will continue to increase the sales of the album.
If the next Cantonese song also becomes popular, the total sales of Tan Zhiguan's new album may also be lost.
Therefore, Mailin Records held a meeting to discuss whether to use Cantonese songs to try out with Fang Xing.
If we can get a win, Mailin Records still hopes to have the last laugh.
However, the top management of Mailin Records reviewed the Cantonese songs that Fang Xing had sung before.
"The Hard Sutra", "Wedding Invitation Street" and "Men Should Be Strong" are each more powerful than the last. If the Cantonese songs this time are of the same level, if they compete head-on, they may be pressed to the ground and rubbed.
After deliberation, Chen Lipeng made a decision from the perspective of a businessman: "Don't rush to release the Cantonese song. I will wait until Fang Xing's Cantonese song is released and listen to the quality of the Cantonese song before making a decision."
"If the quality of his Cantonese song is average, then send him a Cantonese song to suppress him. If you are not sure, just treat him coldly."
This decision is the safest.
Because of the previous love song duet, it was already suppressed.
If they are rejected for the same type of songs again, the morale of the new album will be shattered.
Therefore, Chen Lipeng decided to wait until he heard this new Cantonese song before discussing whether to release a Cantonese song to compete.
…
Time has quickly come to Monday of the new week.
At 12 noon, Fang Xing releases the Cantonese title song of his new album.
At the same time, Ark Culture, Songshi Records, and Guangguang Entertainment also released new song promotion updates.
Fans have formed a habit of going to the music app at noon every Monday to see what new songs Fang Xing has released.
Especially fans who have pre-ordered the entire album want to hear the new songs as soon as possible.
After all, I bought the entire album, so I don’t have to spend any extra money to listen to the new songs. Of course, I want to try them out as soon as possible.
Zeng Wenjun is one of the fans who bought the entire album.
However, he only purchased the entire album a few days ago.
He is from Guangdong Province and works as an operator in a game company. He likes to listen to music and play games.
He likes the Cantonese songs sung by Fang Xing very much, from "The Hard Sutra" to "Wedding Invitation Street".
However, he is one of those more sensible fans.
You won’t unconditionally buy the entire new album just because you like a few of Fang Xing’s songs.
After listening to "Chrysanthemum Terrace" before, he thought it was pretty good and bought this song alone, but he didn't buy the songs he released later. Then he thought "Because of Love" was pretty good and also bought it.
Until a few days ago, I saw the promotion and the next song was a Cantonese song.
He just started to get a little excited.
He is from Guangdong Province and usually listens to a lot of Cantonese songs.
It’s just that twenty years have passed since the golden age of the Hong Kong Philharmonic.
Although there were a few good Cantonese songs released in the post-golden era, Cantonese songs are indeed not as prosperous as they were in the golden era.
Zeng Wenjun likes to listen to Cantonese songs. In recent years, his favorite Cantonese songs are the ones sung by Fang Xing.
Therefore, when he heard that Fang Xing's new album contained Cantonese songs, he was very excited.
Before the Cantonese song was released, he bought the entire album two days in advance.
He thought that if this Cantonese song was not good, it would be considered as paying for the previous Cantonese songs.
Monday at noon.
Zeng Wenjun originally planned to audition at twelve o'clock, but he had a lot of work on Monday and was busy until one o'clock before he had time to sit down and eat.
Today, he led his team members to do floor push for the game, and he was so busy that he was sweating profusely on a hot day.
At one o'clock, the team members and I found a fast food restaurant and sat down to eat.
While serving the food, he remembered the new song. He quickly took out his mobile phone, opened Penguin Music, and clicked on the purchased album to look for the new song released today.
Fang Xing has already released several songs for this new album.
Among them, "Chrysanthemum Terrace" is a Chinese-style song, and "Because of Love" is a love song.
Zeng Wenjun glanced at the list. He had seen all the previous song titles, but there was only one song title that he had not seen. Obviously, this was the new song released today.
He looked at the title of the song and read it in a low voice: ""Exaggerated"."
Judging from the title, I can't tell what this song is about.
He clicked on the song and started playing it.
Since the people on the table are all members of his operation team, and he is the team leader, he doesn’t need to care about what the team members think, he just uses the two-channel speaker of his mobile phone to play this Cantonese song.
A melody with average sound quality came from the mobile phone:
"If someone asks me, I will tell it, but no one will come.
"I looked forward to it until I was helpless.
"I have something to say, but I can't get it loaded..."
Zeng Wenjun looked at the lyrics on his phone and listened carefully.
At first glance, I feel that the melody and lyrics of this song are somewhat unique.
Several of his colleagues in his group were also from Guangdong Province. They could tell that it was a Cantonese song, but they had no impression of it.
Soon, the food was delivered.
The whole group started eating.
Zeng Wenjun put his phone aside, continued to play the song, and then immersed himself in eating.
As the verse of "Exaggerated" ends, it enters the chorus.
"You think I'm exaggerating?
"Exaggerating just because I'm scared
"Words like wood and stone
"Getting noticed?"
As soon as the chorus came out, my colleagues in the group felt that the song was very good.
A colleague asked: "What is this song called? Why have I never heard it?"
Zeng Wenjun also felt that the chorus was starting to explode, and he replied very happily: ""Exaggerated", Fang Xing's new song, was just released today."
"That's it. I saw the promotion two days ago, saying that he was going to release a Cantonese song, but I didn't even have time to listen to it." A colleague responded.
After playing it once, Zeng Wenjun was dissatisfied with the sound quality of the phone's external playback. He took out the headphones and put them in his ears, turned on Bluetooth and listened to it again: "This song is very good, and the more you listen to it, the better it gets." Fang Xing said
The quality of both albums is very high and worth the price.”
