Reborn in a parallel world, Zhou Yiyang becomes the boss, manager, and errand boy of an 18th-tier girl group...
Who could have imagined that five years later, Zhou Yiyang's girl group swe...
When Moonlight Girls came out of the best recording studio in Bangkok, the four of them were so tired that they didn't want to say a word.
"Take them to eat something," Zhou Yiyang instructed Guan Fei, "I'll pay for it later. Try to keep it light, they must be very tired now."
"Okay, Brother Yang," Guan Fei agreed immediately: "Brother Yang, is there anything else?"
"Yeah," Zhou Yiyang shrugged helplessly. "Someone invited me to dinner. Ever since the story between Mr. Yang and I spread through Bangkok's social circles, people have been asking me out for dinner every day. But it's also thanks to this that I was able to borrow this recording studio."
Guan Fei nodded in understanding and took the four girls to a Cantonese restaurant that specializes in light flavors. It was said that it was opened by Chinese immigrants here.
Su Yin sat in the restaurant and after smelling the fragrance of stewed beef, she felt refreshed.
"I feel like I've lost a lot of hair these days while learning this song."
Tang Yue immediately touched Su Yin's hair, which was still so smooth. "It's not as exaggerated as you say. But I didn't expect Brother Yang to suddenly give us a new song to sing."
"Haven't you noticed?" Lin Xuan'er enjoyed trying to understand Zhou Yiyang's thoughts. She always believed that every decision he made had a reason. "Brother Yang gave us another English song. I suspect we'll release an English album next, focusing on overseas sales."
"That's not bad," Wang Xingrui said, having once fantasized about her voice being heard by the entire world. What seemed like a pipe dream back then is now a possibility. "If you want to develop overseas, an all-English album is basically a must. Look at those international groups from Korea and Japan that make it to the US; they all release all-English albums."
"I think there's nothing wrong with singing English songs," Su Yin picked up a pen and quickly wrote down the dishes she wanted to order. "It's just that I thought it was Brother Yang's habit. He would definitely let us sing new songs at the concert as a surprise!"
After hearing what Su Yin said, Tang Yue also felt that it made sense.
She propped her chin up in her hand, lost in thought: "Yeah, why did Brother Yang release the song in advance? If it was a bonus track at the concert, the audience would definitely be happy, right? Just like during our first tour."
Just when they were puzzled, Bai Yangyu, who accompanied Zhou Yiyang to the restaurant, asked the same question in the car.
"It's very simple," Zhou Yiyang raised his eyebrows. "If this were a domestic tour, I would do this. In previous domestic tours, there were no new songs as bonus tracks. But now there are new songs abroad. What will our domestic fans think?"
"Will people say that Yiyang Entertainment is worshipping foreigners? Will people say that Moonlight Girls doesn't value Chinese fans? I don't want the outside world to have such misunderstandings."
When Bai Yangyu heard this, he sat up straight and felt a little scared.
He hadn't even considered this matter. Since joining Yi Yang Entertainment, his career had been going too smoothly. He now felt that he had been a little careless.
"Mr. Zhou is right. I was not thoughtful enough. Releasing the song ahead of time, especially in China first, and then performing it at the Siam concert is understandable. After all, the timeframe is close."
"That's right," Zhou Yiyang was very pleased that Bai Yangyu understood him. "Our move towards internationalization doesn't mean we have to abandon our homeland. Damn, wouldn't that be putting the cart before the horse? All we have to do is export our Chinese music, movies, and culture overseas. We won't be complacent, but we won't kowtow to foreign countries either."
"Mr. Zhou is right!" Bai Yangyu felt that he could no longer underestimate Zhou Yiyang. This man was much more sober than him.
The next day, Moonlight Girl’s new song appeared on the homepage of Moonlight.
With their current traffic, the topic #MoonlightGirlsNewSong# has become popular on Weibo and Tik Tok without any official promotion.
This is the first time that Yue Shao has officially released a single after the release of his third album, instead of performing it first and then putting it on the shelves.
These new songs will usually be included in the album in the end.
In a male dormitory of a certain university, six young and energetic boys were not playing games online together, but were refreshing the homepage of Moonlight.
"It's bad enough that the app is stuck, but the webpage is also stuck?" someone asked in disbelief.
"Yeah, isn't this an exclusive release? Other platforms don't have the copyright. Before, we could still count on some diversion, but today everyone is waiting for the new song!"
"People in my circle of friends have heard it, and they said the new song is really catchy and the style is pretty cool."
Finally, someone refreshed the page and quickly started listening to Moonlight Girl's new song.
It’s only been half an hour since it was released, but the average number has already exceeded 200,000.
I'm afraid there's no one more popular than him in the music industry.
Even Helian Bei didn't have such a terrifying initial popularity.
Several boys stared at the song title, somewhat surprised.
"look what you made me do".
It turned out to be an English song.
But when they put on the headphones, none of them were disappointed.
This is indeed a very nice song, and the chorus is quite catchy.
Moreover, the whole style of music is relatively fresh and mature for Yue Shao.
"I'm really looking forward to the live performance of this song. It should be super explosive, right?"
"The dance is definitely cool, and the song has a really bold attitude!"
"Speaking of which, since their debut, Yue Shao has faced a lot of rumors and gossip. But who would have thought that these criticisms didn't break them down, but instead made them stronger!"
"Speaking of which, Yue Shao's first concert abroad is about to begin, right? Will this song be performed first there? I'm really looking forward to it!"
"However, overseas fans may not be able to hear this song yet, as the overseas version of Moonlight isn't available yet!"
…
Zhou Yiyang was staying in the villa with the four of them at this time, and they were all browsing their phones with great anticipation.
More than an hour has passed, and the fans and the first group of passers-by should have finished listening to the song. They are all looking forward to the reception.
As usual, Zhou Yiyang pays attention to several professional music critics.
Not surprisingly, these music critics all gave the song very high praise.
Whether it is its theme or production craftsmanship, these music critics cannot find any fault with it.
What the four of them are more concerned about is the feedback from netizens.
"The Weibo posts are mostly positive. On the one hand, I feel like it's brainwashing, but on the other hand, I don't think the whole song is cheesy."
"I saw several artists promoting us, saying they had also been subjected to rumors and thanked us for releasing songs to fight back."
"On TikTok, the reviews are quite polarized. Some people think it's great and have started covering it and choreographing their own songs. Others feel they can't understand the English and hope we can sing more Chinese songs."
Even so, it took only one hour for this song to top the daily discussion charts on all major platforms.
