The last new song stage before the third album was undoubtedly a huge anticipation and surprise for the audience and fans. But for Moonlight Girls herself, it was also a huge pressure.
A month ago.
The conference room of Yi Yang Entertainment was full of people, including the chief Zhou Yi Yang, Yue Shao and his four companions, as well as all the senior executives of the company.
As the signature of Yi Yang Entertainment, Moonlight Girl’s third album is obviously the company’s top priority.
"Brother Yang," Wang Xingrui couldn't help but ask after listening to Guan Fei's explanation, "I have a question now. For our third album, why don't we release all the songs first, just like the previous two albums?"
Zhou Yiyang looked at Wang Xingrui with a smile and patiently responded to her suggestion:
"A lot of people have asked me this question. Actually, the release strategies for my first two albums were very risky. The main buyers of the albums are still fans. I believe that ordinary people would rather subscribe to Moonlight membership than spend money specifically to buy an album."
"For fans, an album full of familiar, even hummable songs is good, but it lacks surprises. I specifically asked Guan Fei to crawl the data and draw up a table. On all major platforms, the most common reason for negative reviews of your first two albums is the lack of new songs. If it weren't for the high quality of the songs and the deep love of your fans, other artists would have been rejected."
"Besides," Zhou Yiyang took a sip of water and noticed that everyone was staring at him eagerly, "your popularity and topic level weren't as high as they are now, so you needed to promote your songs to increase public interest in the album. But now I think that's no longer necessary. Keeping some good songs on the album and premiering them at the concert is more suitable for your current development."
"For fans, their enthusiasm for purchasing will be higher, and the tour will sell out better. For ordinary passers-by, they can still listen to all the songs by becoming a member, and the experience will be the same. Moreover, driven by the mystery, some people who were originally hesitant to buy the album will probably buy it just to hear the songs first."
Yue Shao and the other three nodded, and after listening to Zhou Yi Yang's explanation, they also felt that it made sense.
At that time, they all felt that this change would have little impact on them.
But now when the four of them stood on the stage, they thought that this was the last song before the release of the third album, and whether this song was popular or not would most likely affect the album's sales, and they suddenly felt a heavy pressure.
Hearing the deafening screams outside, they no longer hesitated and went onto the stage in their gorgeous clothes.
"Moonlight Girl!"
"Goddess, I love you!"
"Young Master Yue, Young Master Yue!"
The screams from the audience were no less than Luo Chen's earlier.
"That's amazing," the director spoke again, making Zhou Yiyang suspect that the director with thick eyebrows and big eyes was a hidden fan of Moonlight Girl. "When we held evening parties before, almost all the audience members were women. And these women liked male singers and actors. Every time the female artists came on stage, the applause was far less than that of the male artists."
"But they are really different. Not only do they attract a lot of male audiences to watch the show, but there are even quite a few female audiences who like them."
"Indeed," Zhou Yiyang nodded with a smile, "They are quite popular among girls. Many even regard them as role models."
At this time, Helian Bei walked up to Luo Chen, and Luo Chen stood up immediately: "Brother Bei, why are you here? I just saw you chatting with some old friends over there, so I didn't go over."
"Let's just chat, but it's more practical to watch the performance. Your performance just now was pretty solid."
Luo Chen touched his nose embarrassedly, feeling that Helian Bei was just trying to fool him, as if his only advantage was stability.
"There's still a lot of room for improvement. After they finish singing, the comparison will be a real blow."
"That's true of the four of them," Helian Bei said matter-of-factly. "The four of them together have a stage presence that's more than just the sum of their parts. Every time I see them perform, I always feel a pity for not forming a group."
"Brother Bei, if you were to form a team," Luo Chen said cheerfully, "you would definitely be the center. Who can compare with you? But your teammates would be miserable. They would be suppressed and their star power would be bleak."
"Is it so exaggerated?" At this time, a sunny and cheerful voice sounded behind Luo Chen's ears.
Ling Hu, dressed in a flashy costume and about to go on stage, had arrived behind them. "The four of them seem to be getting along pretty well. They're all showing off their talents, and it doesn't seem like one is dominating the other, right?"
Helian Bei also looked at Luo Chen, obviously having the same question.
At this time, Luo Chen said seriously, "Brother Bei, Ling Hu, you don't know that the situation of the four of them is rare. In most idol groups, there are differences in popularity within the group. After all, the four of them are extremely popular when they debuted individually, and no other company has the same luxury as President Zhou."
The three of them smiled, but stopped talking tacitly.
Because the Moonlight Girl performance has begun.
Like most of the audience, Xiao Hui watched the Moonlight Girls' performance, and the first thing she looked at was the clothes they wore.
After all, every time he performs on stage, Yue Shao always presents a very fashionable outfit. Usually after the performance, the same outfit will appear everywhere on Yunbao.
This time all four of them wore trousers and formal suits, the only difference being the color.
Su Yin's outfit is a contrasting red and blue one, paired with a baseball cap, making her look particularly youthful and energetic.
This time, Tang Yue wore a pure black suit, purple lipstick, and had dreadlocks in her hair, which was very individual.
Wang Xingrui's outfit should match Tang Yue's, she is wearing a white suit. However, her makeup is much more common, and the special eye makeup makes her look more interesting.
Lin Xuaner's suit is a contrasting yellow and blue one, which is playful and handsome at the same time.
It can be said that the four of them have completely different styles of clothing.
"But he's wearing a suit this time, so the song should be dance music, and it should be more modern. Hmm, what kind of song will it be? And who knows if it will be an English song or a Chinese song!"
"Who cares what song it is!" the younger brother said nonchalantly, his face full of pride and confidence: "As long as they sing it, it must be good!"
Xiao Hui originally wanted to refute, but after thinking about it, she seemed to have the same attitude when she sang to Luo Chen, so she shut up again.
The moment the four people stepped onto the stage, the lights in the venue suddenly went out.
