Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry

Chapter 32: Do you cater to the secular world for a few taels of silver?



Zhao Yawen hesitated for a moment, then suddenly bit her lip and said loudly: "Teacher Yu, I will definitely learn it!" After saying that, she turned around and ran towards the back door of the tavern.

Seeing Zhao Yawen's figure disappearing into the bar, Yu Dongqing slowly walked back.

"Hey. Did you just train the little girl? How did you feel?" Liu Yimin joked with him.

Yu Dongqing glared at him before saying that he briefly explained what had just happened.

"Dongqing, it seems that you are very optimistic about this Zhao Yawen." Liu Yimin smiled.

He knows Yu Dongqing very well.

If I didn't think highly of you, I wouldn't even bother to say unnecessary words to you.

"This girl is in good condition. Both her appearance and voice are suitable for singing this kind of ancient songs. Now the only thing that depends on her is whether she works hard enough."

Yu Dongqing said lightly.

Yu Dongqing didn't take this matter to heart. The opportunity has been given to you, let's see if you can grasp it.

Three days later, on Thursday. It was almost time to get off work in the afternoon, and Yu Dongqing was packing up the things on his desk and preparing to go home, when he suddenly saw Zhao Yawen bursting into the office, panting.

She quickly walked up to Yu Dongqing and called "Teacher Yu". Under the surprised eyes of others, she hummed the song "Bai Suzhen at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain" and started dancing.

She swung her sleeves, raised her fingers, and covered her eyebrows. She was so lifelike that she really looked like Bai Suzhen in plain clothes dancing under the moonlight.

"Pa bang bang" someone clapped and it turned out to be Luo Yun.

Luo Yun saw Zhao Yawen performing desperately in front of Yu Dongqing and understood everything.

She is a hard-working girl.

Even if she just flicks her sleeves, she knows how long it takes to practice Peking Opera!

"Bah bang bang!" Several other colleagues also clapped.

"Teacher Yu, do you and I think this is okay?" After finishing the song, Zhao Yawen panted slightly and looked at him with hope.

Yu Dongqing nodded and took out his mobile phone: "Mr. Wu? I am Yu Dongqing. I will sing the song "Bai Suzhen at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain" to Zhao Yawen. I think she will give us a surprise."

On the Internet, topics in the entertainment industry are always the most eye-catching. No, the fans of popular singers Ai Tong and Zhang Fan suddenly broke news:

Their idols are joining together to perform a new song!

The news quickly began to ferment, and the topic was immediately pushed to the hot search by tens of millions of fans of the two companies!

Many entertainment media called Jinye Records or asked through various channels whether the news was true or false.

Jinye Records finally admitted the authenticity of the news and also lost no time in releasing a promotional poster for the new song.

In the photo, Zhang Fan is wearing a simple T-shirt and denim shorts, while Ai Tong is wearing pink suspender shorts under a white T-shirt. The two of them are like the big brother and sister next door.

There is also a very cute sentence below:

"On July 2nd, Zhang Fan and Ai Tong will take you to learn how to meow, meow, meow, meow!"

As soon as the poster was released, fans of the two companies immediately praised:

"Wow, my idol is so handsome and cute."

"66666, such a strong CP feeling."

"Meow meow cat I want meow cat now."

With the vigorous promotion of Jinye Records, the promotion of countless self-media and the enthusiasm of fans, this topic became more and more popular, quickly ranking in the top three hot searches, and becoming the hottest topic at present. The hot search index of Zhang Fan and Ai Tong Picked up quickly.

On July 3, the much-requested song "Learning to Meow" was officially released simultaneously on several major music platforms such as QQ Music and NetEase Cloud. With its cheerful melody and magical music, it quickly began to climb the charts.

According to official statistics, within 24 hours, the brainwashing song "Learning to Meow" has reached a record 20 million views on the three major music platforms, surpassing Lin Nana's "Hand in hand dance" in 24 hours. volume, and the on-demand volume continues to rise!

The "GOGOGO" that filled the streets was finally replaced by "Meow Meow Meow".

Yu Dongqing also heard this song at Liu Yimin's Shili Peach Blossom Bistro.

It's midsummer now, and the weather is sweltering. It's very pleasant to go to a tavern after get off work, drink a cool draft beer, and chat with old friends about music.

Liu Yimin's phone suddenly rang, and the ringtone turned out to be the song "Learning to Meow"!

In this somewhat literary tavern, an old man’s cell phone suddenly sang:

Let’s learn to meow together

Meow meow meow meow together

Act like a baby in front of you

Ouch, meow, meow, meow, meow.

The delicate little girl's voice really makes people laugh.

Liu Yimin was immediately embarrassed. He quickly answered the phone, said a few words and then hung up. He smiled at Yu Dongqing and said, "No way, it was my daughter who made the fuss. She liked the song and insisted that both her mother and I change the ringtones. Make this happen.”

Liu Yimin is also a daughter, one year older than Yu Tongtong.

Yu Dongqing laughed: "What's the point? Tongtong is like this too, asking her grandparents and aunt to change their ringtones to this!"

"Hey Holly, the songs "Love Song 1980" and "Love Song 1990" you wrote are so good, but they didn't make any waves on the Internet. It's incredible that Meow Meow Meow has become so famous."

After Liu Yimin finished speaking, he couldn't help but shake his head.

After hearing this, Yu Dongqing picked up the glass and took a sip of beer, and said lazily: "What can't be figured out? Existence is reasonable. If you like the beauty of spring and snow, don't allow others to listen to the people in Liba? Why do you care so much? It's just for fun, Come and have a drink”

After speaking, he raised his glass again.

Liu Yimin also picked up his wine glass and clinked it with him, and then asked with concern: "How are you preparing for your ancient song? When will it be released?"

"That girl is preparing carefully. She said that since she wants to sing, she must sing well, including the arrangement of the entire MV. Wu Lan also means this. In fact, everyone knows it, but more importantly, he wants her to avoid "Learning to Meow" "This limelight."

Yu Dongqing explained with a smile.

Just when "Learning to Meow" dominated the major music charts for two consecutive weeks and became extremely popular, discordant sounds appeared. Someone publicly commented on the Internet that this brainwashing song is not so much a pop song as it is a pop song. A children's song, a saliva song.

Among them, the most vehement one was the famous music critic Huang Zhengkai. He wrote on his meager account: "It is a piece of music composed using textbook-like composition routines. It became popular only because of the melody. Even young idol men and women Lyrics of singers and innocent moans showing affection are also a common routine in domestic pop songs. If such a song is so popular, how far will the Chinese entertainment industry degenerate?"

The article also specifically mentioned the songwriter Yu Dongqing by name.

"I once noticed this young musician. Just some time ago, he wrote excellent folk music like "Knife Club Overture", and also wrote "The Final Countdown", a gorgeous metal rock with a European and American style. People can't help but stare. One light."

"I once thought that another extremely creative musician had appeared in the Chinese music scene, but this song "Learning to Meow" disappointed me again. Is it because he has exhausted his talent, or is he just catering to the world for a few taels of silver?"
