"Looking back, that night seemed like a dream. I even doubt that I had ever been to a listening session, heard so many great songs, or cried like a fool in my seat during the last song."
"Friends, can you imagine? On a 9-degree night in Shanghai, a 170-pound fat man cried because of a song. I didn't even dare to look up, for fear of seeing the disgusted looks from my colleagues."
"But dreams always have to end, otherwise how could I write this article now? It's a pity that Mr. Zhou didn't let us give a detailed introduction to our feelings after listening to each song, otherwise I could have written 5,000 words."
"As for now, I can only use one word to describe the audition that night: dreamlike. Yes, it was like a dream. You'll understand when you see the recording."
This is a very popular article on WeChat recently. It was written by a self-media person and is a review of Lin Xuaner's personal album after a listening session.
The reason this article went viral was not only because of its interesting title, but also because of its high ratings, which made some fans suspect it was a soft article.
But they are unwilling to believe that this is a soft article. Of course, they want this article to be sincere and heartfelt more than anyone else.
Because that means the quality of Lin Xuaner's personal album is really high, and it also means that the final sales of this album should be very good.
Thinking of this, many fans of Lin Xuan'er and Moonlight Girls began to look for reviews from other music critics who were invited to the audition that day with great enthusiasm.
Gradually, they gained confidence.
After they read the reviews of those artists, they even started to become arrogant.
Wow, who would have thought that these people would give such high evaluations? This made them suddenly feel unreal.
Could it be that Lin Xuaner’s new album is really going to be a hit?
After all, the Moonlight Girls' album was a hit, and you could say it was because they were a girl group. And over the years, the highest-selling solo album was still Wang Xingrui's album from two years ago, which wasn't as good as the quality.
For Lin Xuaner, jumping off the stage that night was not what she had expected.
Originally, she was supposed to say something like "goodnight" before leaving the stage. But after she finished singing "I," she suddenly had an urge to jump down and find her own seat.
This feeling became stronger and stronger, but Lin Xuan'er finally chose to respect her thoughts.
"Brother Yang, it should be okay for me to do this, right?" After Lin Xuan'er sat down, she suddenly came to her senses when she saw Zhou Yiyang sitting upright, fearing that this man would scold her.
But Zhou Yiyang laughed: "Of course it's okay, there's nothing wrong with that. Unless you accidentally twist your ankle when you jump down, then it will be really serious. But your way of leaving the stage is quite unique, was it a sudden inspiration?"
Lin Xuaner nodded: "That's about it, I want to jump down now."
Zhou Yiyang hummed, "That's great. This kind of thing is called a blessing from the heart."
By now the audition session was over and most of the artists had gone home.
They originally thought that they could socialize after the audition, but who could have imagined that tonight's audition would be so tiring for the audience. Most people had the urge to go home and sleep quickly.
At this time, Ovina came over.
"Is there anything wrong?" Wang Xingrui raised her head, thinking that Aovina was looking for her.
Who knew that Aovina looked at Lin Xuan'er this time and said very seriously:
"I recognize you now, Lin Xuan'er. I will treat you as my rival, just like Wang Xingrui. I will definitely compete with you in next year's World Singer Contest!"
After saying that, Aovina was immediately pulled away by Monica without caring about their confused expressions.
Monica was afraid that if she was any slower, she would see Aovina beaten to death by these people.
After Lin Xuan'er realized what was happening, she burst out laughing. "Although her attitude was quite arrogant, I was really happy to hear her say that. It means my strength is recognized!"
At this time, Tang Yue, who was standing aside, shrugged and said helplessly, "But this is a huge blow to Xiao Xiao Su and me. We are really being ignored."
Su Yin's attitude was as good as ever. She smiled and said nonchalantly, "It's nothing. We're just average singers anyway. By the way, Brother Yang, are you going to let us compete together in the World Singer Contest, or will Xuan'er and Ruirui compete separately?"
At this point, the four of them looked over curiously.
Su Yin and Tang Yue both hoped that Xuan'er and Ruirui could compete alone. It was not that they did not want to sing or compete, but they felt from the bottom of their hearts that they were a drag, and this arrangement would be more likely to win.
But Wang Xingrui and Lin Xuaner don't think so. They still feel that the Moonlight Girls as a whole are obviously stronger.
Facing their curiosity, Zhou Yiyang cleared his throat and then gave his own thoughts: "Of course it's a team. I said a long time ago that the chemical reaction generated when the four of you are together is unmatched by others."
Hearing this, Wang Xingrui and Lin Xuan'er felt relieved. Tang Yue and Su Yin were not disappointed either. They were even vaguely proud, which showed that Brother Yang still had high hopes for them.
After they walked out of the audition, everyone was in a good mood because they found that there were better things waiting for them in the future.
…
The taping of the audition was scheduled for a week later, and discussions about it continued non-stop. Zhou Yiyang also took the opportunity to start pre-orders for Lin Xuaner's new album.
If overseas regions are included, pre-sales of physical albums have exceeded one million copies. This achievement can lock in this year's championship in advance, even though it is already December.
Lin Xuaner herself was surprised by the result. She didn't expect her personal album to sell so much.
"Brother Yang, thank you so much!" She even came to Zhou Yiyang's office specifically to thank him: "If it weren't for your strategy, so many people wouldn't have bought my album."
But Zhou Yiyang went to Wang Xingrui and asked, "Do you feel that you were not treated as well as Lin Xuaner when you released your solo album two years ago?"
"Not at all. I think Xuan'er's promotional model this time is very good. Won't I still have the opportunity to release an album in the future?" Wang Xingrui said with a smile.
"Will you compromise for commercial performance? We can make an album like Xuan'er's that appeals to both the elite and the masses," Zhou Yiyang suggested.
Wang Xingrui hesitated for a moment and then shook her head: "As a member of Moonlight Girls, I have achieved all the commercial success I need. For my solo album, I want it to be more personal and artistic."
