noon.

After get off work, Dr. Zhang called his niece Zhong Lihong first.

As soon as the call was connected, Dr. Zhang asked, "Lihong, guess who I met in the hospital today?"

Zhong Lihong smiled and said, "Aunt, how can I guess that? Who did you meet?"

Doctor Zhang said: "I met He Dingtian!"

Zhong Lihong was silent for a moment, then asked, "What's wrong with him?"

Doctor Zhang said, "He is not sick. He came to see me specifically."

Zhong Lihong's voice changed. "What? He...how did he become like this? How much money did he ask you for?"

Doctor Zhang said with some emotion: "I thought I was the only one who misunderstood him, but I didn't expect that your ex-girlfriend had the same idea as me. It seems that you and him are really not suitable. Even if that incident hadn't happened, you two wouldn't be suitable to be together."

Zhong Lihong asked, "Aunt, what do you mean by this?"

Doctor Zhang sighed, "They are here to repay their debts, not to borrow money."

Zhong Lihong was silent for a long time before she said in disbelief: "Aunt, I remember you lent him money only two months ago. How come he came back to pay it back so soon?"

Doctor Zhang said: "He didn't come alone to repay the money, he brought his wife with him. That woman not only has a good figure, but is also very beautiful. I don't know how he found her."

Zhong Lihong said in disbelief: "How is this possible? It must be fake, right?"

Doctor Zhang said, "I also find it unbelievable, but it's too much to say it's fake. Why would they come to me to act out a show when they have nothing better to do? What's the point?"

Zhong Lihong: “…”

Doctor Zhang said earnestly, "Lihong, be more open-minded. Although you are not together anymore, there is no need to be jealous of others. After all, you have been together for a while. Isn't it good to wish each other well?"

Zhong Lihong took a deep breath and said, "Aunt, you are right. I just lost my composure."

Doctor Zhang said, "Okay, let's not talk about him. You haven't come to see me for more than a month. Summer vacation is coming soon. Bring your two little ones and come to my place to play for a while."

"Well, let's go when summer vacation starts. Don't think they are annoying then!"

"What's so annoying about it? Kids this age are the most fun."

Next, the aunt and nephew chatted for about ten minutes before hanging up the phone.

Tuesday, June 20, 2023.

At eight o'clock in the evening, countless fans were waiting on the four famous music platforms: QQ Music, Kugou Music, Kuwo Music, and Migu Music, waiting for Xiao Min's new album to be released.

The release time of Xiao Min's new album "Never Fade" is scheduled to be 20:18. The promotion of the new album in the past three days has been overwhelming and pervasive. Anyone with Internet access knows the news.

Anyway, for Mr. Wang, whether it is hiring someone to create this album or spending money on promotion, there is only one purpose, which is to fulfill his wife's dream, not to make money.

When the time came to 20:18, the moment the album was released, Xiao Min's fans who had been waiting for a long time rushed to buy the album.

After all, digital albums are numbered, and for the same price, who wouldn't want to get a number that's ranked higher? Showing it off to show off to others will make you look good!

In addition to Xiao Min's fans, many celebrities and passers-by also joined the buying frenzy.

Those celebrities may not really like Xiao Min's songs, but if they can spend only 30 yuan to buy an album, they can at least have a connection with Xiao Min, the future billionaire boss lady. What if they have the chance to use her songs someday?

As for passers-by, many of them were attracted by the overwhelming promotion. The album consisting of 18 songs created by several top songwriters in the industry was sold for only 30 yuan, which was really a great value for money, making passers-by unable to resist joining in the rush to buy.

Of course, Xiao Min's fans were the first to buy the album, and many passers-by even listened to a few songs before buying. It was not until they found that the songs in this album were indeed the same as advertised, and each song was very classic, which would be the level of hit songs in other albums, that they excitedly clicked to buy.

As fans and passers-by purchased the digital album, the sales of the digital album soared rapidly. Refreshing every few seconds, the sales volume soared by tens of thousands.

"Fuck, in just ten minutes, sales have exceeded one million, Fairy Min is awesome (broken voice)!"

"Haha, I got the album numbered 19. I've been single for 30 years, so my finger speed is incredible."

"Scumbag, I got the album number 13 and I'm not showing off, why are you showing off?"

"Fuck, you guys are all crazy. I thought my hand speed was fast enough, but I didn't even make the top 300. Are you sure your hand speed didn't make you bald?"

"Wow, Fairy Min's album is invincible. The songs are so nice. I've listened to three songs already. Every one of them is a classic. This album is definitely going to be a hit."

"The above person is right, this album is really awesome, I can't stop listening to it!"

"Is it really that good? I was so busy pretending that I didn't have time to listen to it. I'm going to listen to some music first."

"I've listened to four of them. They're absolutely amazing. I never thought that in this day and age, those songwriters could still write so many classic songs."

"The great power of money, no one can deny it."

"You losers, you are all blowing it up here. This is just a sleazy song, and you are blowing it up to the sky."

"The idiot upstairs, identification completed!"

"It's not just the song that's good. Did you notice that Fairy Min's singing skills complement the song so well? It's truly a classic that was tailor-made for her. It suits Fairy Min so well."

"Damn it, if Fairy Min had gotten these classic songs a few years earlier, she would have been crowned the queen of the music industry long ago, and she wouldn't have wasted so many years in the second tier!"

"Brother, good things never come to those who are late. Fairy Min has wasted many years in the second-tier cities, but this is not a bad thing. At least it has honed her singing skills. Now her singing skills are much better than they were a few years ago."

"By the way, is it possible for this album's sales to break Jay Chou's record?"

"That's unlikely. Jay Chou is such a big name in the music industry. The album he released last year sold nearly 7 million copies, with total sales exceeding 200 million. This record is not easy to break."

"Yes, although I am a fan of Fairy Min, Jay Chou's awesomeness is obvious to all in the music industry. This is the sales volume of his album after the purchase restriction. It is different from those young idols whose mini albums sell tens of millions of copies. It is difficult to break Jay Chou's sales record!"

"That's not necessarily true. It's undeniable that in terms of the number of fans, Fairy Min can't even compare to Jay Chou, but Fairy Min also has her advantages. First of all, the quality of the album. Fairy Min can't say that she beats Jay Chou, but she is definitely better than Jay Chou. I just listened to it. Every song is really the title song level. It's amazing.

Secondly, it is of good quality and low price. A digital album with 18 hit songs only costs 30 yuan, which is more expensive than cabbage.

Finally, Fairy Min has Mr. Wang behind her. In this era, money is the most powerful ability. As long as you are willing to spend money and do a good job of marketing, it is not impossible for a second-tier singer's album sales to surpass the king of pop music."

"Wow, sales have exceeded 200,000 copies in just one hour. Fairy Min is awesome!"

“…”

Just when Xiao Min's new album was selling like hot cakes online and offline, Jiang Feng was gathering with the couple Wang Wenjie and Xiao Min at Wang Wenjie's home in the provincial capital of Guangdong Province.

Jiang Feng came to the provincial capital of Guangdong Province mainly to attend Lan Yingying's wedding.

Lan Yingying (a child of a high-ranking official, whose father is a high-ranking official in Guangxi Province) and Xu Xingchen (a scholarly family, whose grandfather and father are both academicians) are scheduled to hold their wedding on June 21, 2023, so Jiang Feng rushed to the provincial capital of Guangdong Province one day in advance.

Although Xu Xingchen works in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, and has a house there, he grew up in the provincial capital after all, and his parents also work there, so the wedding was also held in the provincial capital.

At this time, Wang Wenjie and his wife were drinking tea with Jiang Feng while watching and listening to Xiao Min's song MV.

Even though these songs were specially created for his wife by lyricists and composers invited by Wang Wenjie, he, like Jiang Feng, had never heard these 18 new songs of his wife. In his wife's words, the greatest enjoyment is to listen to the finished products directly after the songs are released.

Wang Wenjie followed suit and resisted the urge to listen to his wife's new song.

Now that the album is finally online, Wang Wenjie began to listen to his wife's singing with great anticipation.

The current album is a physical album. Physical albums and digital albums are the same for ordinary people, but for rich people who own awesome audio equipment, the sound quality of physical albums is obviously better than that of digital albums.

The best sound equipment, top-notch lyrics and music tailor-made by everyone, plus outstanding singing skills, the effect is really known to everyone who hears it. In the words of voice control people, it makes your ears pregnant.

After listening to the song, Wang Wenjie pressed the pause button.

Jiang Feng couldn't help but praise: "Sister Min, you sing this song so beautifully. It's as amazing as the first time I heard you sing "Laughing at the Wind and Clouds"."

Wang Wenjie also praised with a savoring look: "Wife, this song is really well sung. The voice is clear and clean, with the magic of cleansing the soul. It makes people unable to stop listening."

Xiao Min was flattered by the two and smiled, and said modestly: "Don't praise me like that, this is the credit of the lyrics and music, my singing is just the icing on the cake."

Wang Wenjie drank a sip of tea, waved his hand and said, "Wife, don't be too modest. The lyrics and music are of course indispensable, but without your wonderful singing, this song would not be so beautiful. Master Jiang, don't you think so?"

Jiang Feng smiled and nodded, "Boss Wang is right, Sister Min, don't ignore the role you played in this."

Xiao Min smiled as beautifully as a flower and said a few humble words before letting her husband continue to play the next song.

Next, Wang Wenjie played the songs one by one. After each song, he would pause and work with Jiang Feng, the two amateurs "giving advice" and praising the songs as much as they could.

Although there is some exaggeration here, it has to be said that the quality of Xiao Min's 18 songs is really good. Each one is very beautiful, which made Jiang Feng and Wang Wenjie praise them to the point of being speechless.

In the end all I can do is keep shouting “awesome!”

There are eighteen songs, each of which is about four or five minutes long. Adding the commentary time by Jiang Feng and Wang Wenjie, it took the three of them almost three hours to listen to this album. This is really unprecedented.

That night, Jiang Feng stayed at Wang Wenjie's house.

The next day, Long Zeyu and his wife, Bai Zian, Shi Yinghao, Li Qianrou, Liu Zhuang and other children of high-ranking officials and rich second-generations rushed over from Guangxi Province one after another.

As one of the landlords in the provincial capital of Guangdong Province, Wang Wenjie was the first person contacted by his frequent friends. Knowing that Master Jiang was also with him, they all gathered here first.
