Chapter 68 The Drama Queen
"Birds and Cicadas" became a hit without a doubt, and its download volume far exceeded the minimum limit set by Gu Qingge: 10,000.
Because this side quest is to release three songs with over 10,000 downloads.
Therefore, "Birds and Cicadas" successfully completed the mission of a "tool song".
But this "tool song" in Gu Qingge's eyes further deepened the public's impression of her.
Now when people mention Gu Qingge, a label will pop up in their minds: a talented original singer.
Even her other halos were overshadowed by her talent in pop music.
The comment section for "Birds and Cicadas" was also very popular. Many listeners were deeply moved after listening to the song, and the "Depression Cloud" writers who are good at commenting started again -
“I said to the cicada: See you next time, it will be next year.
The cicada said to me: If we meet again, it will be in the next life."
"You are a flying bird, and I am a cicada. I can only accompany you for one summer, but I will always remember you because of the summer. All that happened between us was this: a sudden meeting, an unexpected liking, an unexpected goodbye, and a ruthless separation."
"A cicada's life span is only one summer. When summer draws to a close, migratory birds will leave for warmer climes, but the cicada can only leave the memory of that summer along with its own life. Even if there are thirteen months, my life is so short."
"The boy I like listens to this song and thinks of the girl he likes, but it's not me."
…
Gu Qingge’s fan group “fans” have now really become her fans.
There was a female fan who was extremely enthusiastic about the song "Birds and Cicadas". She said that she had not had any expectations for Gu Qingge's new song, because she didn't like her previous songs "Little Love Song" and "Painting" very much.
But now she feels that this song "Birds and Cicadas" is particularly poetic and the metaphors are perfect. She likes this kind of love songs that are not so straightforward.
The public's reaction to Gu Qingge's new song was quite strong, which also brought Gu Qingge an unexpected gain.
The reason is, of course, that Gu Qingge, who became so popular just by releasing a new song, has also aroused the jealousy of many new generation singers.
The entertainment industry has always been a place where fame brings a lot of gossip.
Before Gu Qingge became so popular, she was not taken seriously by some people. However, when she took one step at a time and used her original strength to win the recognition of the public, all kinds of criticisms followed.
Some music industry veterans who graduated from professional schools, either because they received benefits or simply because they were jealous of the popularity and money-making ability of Gu Qingge's original songs, jumped out and began to criticize Gu Qingge's songs from a professional perspective.
"Kitsch" is the word they use most often, which is to criticize her songs as unconventional, tasteless, assembly line products, catchy songs, and not presentable.
There are also some professional music producers behind the scenes who claim that Gu Qingge's singing skills are only second-rate and she cannot sing those difficult songs at all, and the songs she wrote herself are also of relatively low difficulty.
When Gu Qingge saw these criticisms, she was simply "delighted to hear criticism" because her cultivation jade had increased by +++ again.
So she sincerely hopes that those competitors who are jealous of her and secretly bribe internet trolls and experts to discredit her will step up their efforts.
In fact, some of the criticisms were spot on, because Gu Qingge's vocal skills were only at the green mastery level, and his singing skills could only be considered second-rate.
But then again, people are generally more tolerant of singer-songwriters' singing skills. Many singer-songwriters are actually "studio singers" and their live performances are often average.
Therefore, in those PK-type music variety shows, the singers who can shine are all talented singers.
Gu Qingge is not able to perform god-level live performances at the moment, but as long as her vocal skills are upgraded to the blue expert level, coupled with the work card, she will be able to blow up the stage.
In fact, there are only a few people in the music industry who come out to criticize Gu Qingge.
Most people in the music industry are welcoming this new generation of singer-songwriter.
Regardless of the quality of the songs written by Gu Qingge, its popularity and popularity are unquestionable.
This shows that Gu Qingge, a singer-songwriter, is born with a keen sense of the market.
This is quite rare.
Looking at the entire Chinese music scene, singer-songwriters like Gu Qingge, who are extremely musically talented, are destined to have a bright future as long as they continue to maintain this vigorous creative inspiration.
Many singers below the second tier have sent letters of intent to cooperate to Gu Qingge, hoping that Gu Qingge, as a musician, can tailor-make works for them, and the treatment will definitely satisfy her.
Their actions show that they have recognized Gu Qingge's creative ability.
Unfortunately, as long as there is no commissioned task on the system, Gu Qingge has little motivation, and pure money has never been able to impress her.
When the popularity of "Birds and Cicadas" subsided a little, Gu Qingge released another new single "White Moonlight and Cinnabar Mole".
The "fans" are excited again!
Our Gege is so talented that even reading novels can inspire her creative inspiration!
Originally, not many people knew about Eileen Chang's "Red Rose and White Rose". But now, as soon as this song came out, someone posted the source of Gu Qingge's inspiration in the comment section.
The most catchy part of the song "White Moonlight and Cinnabar Mole" is undoubtedly "Only when the white moonlight shines do you remember her goodness, and the cinnabar mole is hard to fade. Do you know that the bright moon shines in front of the window, and you are alone gazing into the distance, the white moonlight is youth, it is her smile..."
To be fair, the lyrics of this song are not as good as those of "Birds and Cicadas". It is more popular and is a typical internet celebrity song.
However, it is such a popular song that it has begun to dominate the charts again...
This really leaves some professional musicians speechless, and they privately complain about the public's current musical aesthetics.
However, no matter how they complain, the popularity of this song is unquestionable. It has become popular on Tik Tok again, highlighting its popularity and down-to-earth nature.
In the comment section of this song, there are always people who don’t understand what white moonlight is and what cinnabar mole is, so they always raise questions.
Gu Qingge is not aloof on "Yin Yue Yun". She often hangs out in the comment section and interacts with her fans.
This time, she answered all these people's doubts in a unified way -
"The person you place your hopes on but cannot possess is called white moonlight, and the person you once possessed but cannot embrace again is called cinnabar mole."
Gu Qingge's answer was relatively accurate and concise. Her comment was liked by many fans and became the most popular comment in the comment section.
But what Gu Qingge didn't expect was that the other comment under her answer was also amazing -
"The answer of the talented lady Gu is actually too literary. Let me explain it more clearly: those who didn't sleep with her are the white moonlight, and those who didn't sleep enough are the cinnabar mole."
As soon as this comment was released, it quickly became a hot topic, with responses such as "insightful", "awesome", "powerful", and "well-summarized" being everywhere.
Some fans couldn't help but complain, saying that Gu Qingge was always depressed. Her comments on "Yin Yue Yun" were like modern poetry, with a literary and beautiful style, but the songs she wrote were quite popular.
Unlike an independent musician with the nickname [Yu Meiren], she also appears in many comment sections of "Yin Yue Yun", but her style is very silly, and she is also a gossip-eater and a melon-eating maniac. However, the songs she writes have a unique texture and the lyrics are quite literary.
That’s right, now there are a very small number of music fans who like to discover niche songs on “Yin Yue Yun” and have paid attention to [Yu Mei Ren].
In addition to "Borrow Me", [Yu Meiren] also has "Xingkong Mountain", "The Song of Wonderful Ability", "I Fell from the Edge of the Cliff", "If You Can't Write Good Chords, We Should Eat Pudding Together in Front of the Piano in the Sunlight", etc.
Gu Qingge didn't record some of his folk songs in the recording studio, but did it directly in You Ruoyu's piano room.
As for the song "Chengdu", she plans to release it in September. After all, "parting always happens in September, and memories are the sorrow of missing someone." She will produce this song well, and it is a good song that can become popular in the folk music circle.
The most imaginative song of [Yu Meiren] is called "Qingge". Its name in the original world is "Zhu Xing".
Some users gossiped about [Yu Meiren] under the song "Qingge", asking her if she was writing a love song for Gu Qingge.
Otherwise, the song title has nothing to do with the lyrics.
I have to say that the drama queen Gu Qingge is very good at creating a character for her secondary account. She has even set [Yu Meiren] as her future scandal partner.
Isn’t it basic to fall in love with yourself?
When [Yu Meiren] sings "Lies", Gu Qingge himself can arrange to sing "Bubble".
Without being hurt by love, Gu Qingge doesn’t know how to come up with those classic sad songs, so she can only let her secondary account [Yu Meiren] take some of the blame.
The ambiguity between “two” talented singers, tsk…
