After the live broadcast ended, the four people rejected the invitation of the program team and took a car back home.
"Brother Yang, we didn't go to the dinner party, so it should be okay, right?" Lin Xuan'er, who acted first and asked for permission later, sent a message to Zhou Yiyang.
Zhou Yiyang, who hadn't slept yet, glanced down and said with a smile, "Of course it's no problem. With your current status, you don't need to rely on this kind of socializing. As long as the refusal is reasonable, no one will do anything to you."
"Did you hear that?" Tang Yue said with a smile after listening to Zhou Yiyang's voice through the amplifier. "Brother Yang definitely doesn't mind. Our company never has a rule of asking artists to accompany guests drinking. Ruirui, your new song looks like it's going to be a hit again! The live broadcast just ended, and it's already trending on all the major music apps."
"That's all thanks to you," Wang Xingrui said with a smile. "The script we wrote together this time was really interesting. Many people were attracted to the show because of this performance."
"It's because we sing well," Su Yin said confidently, "I just listened to it again, and it's true, I sing much better than before!"
"That's indeed the case," Lin Xuan'er said, looking at Su Yin and Tang Yue with certainty. "You two sang really well this time, and most importantly, you sang with great emotion. It seems that the constant rehearsals and preparations for the gala have subtly improved your singing skills."
"But the most important thing right now is you two," Tang Yue said seriously, "You and Ruirui are going to participate in the finals soon, so you must take good care of your voices."
When the two heard this, they really became serious. Wang Xingrui even joked, "I didn't expect you to care about us so much, Tangtang."
"Nonsense," Tang Yue shook her hair and said with a smile, "You two have been competing for two months. Xiao Xiaosu and I have seen how hard you two have worked. The finals are coming soon. If you can't win the title of King of Singers, you must at least get some good reviews!"
"That's right," Su Yin nodded. "And have you two decided who you want to sing with in the finals? If you choose me, I should still be better than Tangtang!"
Lin Xuan'er was amused and immediately asked, "Oh? Why do you say that?"
"Tsk," Tang Yue tutted, and said rather conceitedly, "Who knows where she gets all that confidence from. My singing isn't bad either, at least I'm on par with Xiao Xiao Su!"
"Have you forgotten, Tangtang?" Su Yin leaned close to Tang Yue's ear and whispered softly, "I'm still a rapper! In this regard, I'm not afraid of you anymore."
This left Tang Yue speechless for a moment. How could she have forgotten that Su Yin also had the skill of rap? And this skill, when used in a chorus, would definitely be a killer.
As expected, Wang Xingrui and Lin Xuaner looked at each other, as if they were moved by what Su Yin said.
Tang Yue was certainly not willing to be outdone. With her competitive spirit rising, she immediately introduced herself desperately: "I, I can also be a model! If that doesn't work out, I can still be a comedian!"
"Alright, alright," Lin Xuan'er interrupted the comparisons and said with a smile, "Actually, Ruirui and I already had the idea of helping out with the singing."
"Could it be," Su Yin suddenly had a thought: "You two never thought of inviting us... So, are we just being too sentimental?"
"Oh my God," Tang Yue pretended to cry, "The clowns are actually us!"
"No, no," Wang Xingrui said quickly, "I've already made up my mind. I plan to be in a group with Xiao Xiao Su. Xuan Er also thinks this is more suitable."
Then Lin Xuan'er grabbed Tang Yue's hand and looked at her tenderly: "Then Tangtang, would you like to be in a group with me?"
"Of course!" Tang Yue raised her lips and said, "We must rock the place!"
"You said it yourself," Lin Xuan'er said, looking at Tang Yue with a triumphant look on her face. "I've prepared a particularly explosive dance routine for you!"
There are still two weeks to the final of "This is the Singer", but Tang Yue already has the illusion of overdrawing in advance.
Two days later, "Fruits of Summer" surpassed "Vogue" and "Weird Beauty" and topped the Moonlight Hot Songs Chart, just as most people predicted.
Compared with the first two dance songs that swept the square dance, "Fruits of Midsummer" is deeply loved by students and workers.
On campus, this is the most played song on the radio station, and people often play it for their exes.
Just as Zhou Yiyang expected, once the single becomes popular, it will also feed back into the album sales.
Now all institutions have raised their forecasts for "Queen", believing that it is expected to exceed one million copies this year.
Although this result is not as good as the first week of Yue Shao’s second album, it has surprised countless people in the industry.
They even thought that Chinese music was alive again.
"Mr. Zhou," Guan Fei pushed open the office door and saw Zhou Yiyang sitting on a recliner playing with his phone. "This is the overseas data sheet Sister Liu gave us last week."
Zhou Yiyang accepted it and quickly flipped through it.
As he expected, "Strange Beauty" performed very well in Asia and even topped the list in Korea for a week.
Vogue's continued popularity in Europe and the United States has benefited from the gradual increase in TikTok downloads. As TikTok's main artist, Moonlight Girl has benefited the most.
Wang Xingrui's new album is also selling well overseas, and the total sales should exceed 100,000.
However, love songs like "Fruits of Midsummer" did not perform well in Korea and Japan, and now its listening volume has fallen behind "Strange Beauty".
"Looking at it this way," Zhou Yiyang sighed after reviewing all the data, "love songs are more popular in China. When they go overseas, their appeal is somewhat diminished due to language barriers."
"Yeah," Guan Fei nodded. "But Sister Liu said that once more and more music, movies, and TV series are exported from our country and everyone gets used to Chinese, the situation will improve significantly."
"Yeah," Zhou Yiyang nodded. "But at the moment, fast-paced dance music and electronic music are indeed the fastest way to export overseas. This can be taken into consideration when planning albums for other artists."
"Okay, Mr. Zhou, don't worry, I've taken note of it." Guan Fei quickly left the office.
Zhou Yiyang stretched and was about to continue slacking off when he found Ning Mang had sent him a message:
"Old Zhou, why don't you send out that promotional video yet?"
"What promotional video?" Zhou Yiyang thought that his movie hadn't even started shooting yet, so where would a promotional video come from?
"Forget it, the one about the graduation party." Ning Mang shook his head on the other end of the phone. Why is Lao Zhou's memory not so good?
"You're still paying attention to that?" Zhou Yiyang was very surprised: "Could it be that you're dating a girl who just graduated?"
"Get lost," Ning Mang laughed. "It's your fault that every promotional video you make is like a short film. I'm really looking forward to it! I'll watch this to satisfy my craving before your movie comes out!"
"Okay," Zhou Yiyang glanced at the date. Today was indeed a good day to release it. "It will be released at six o'clock in the evening. But if you want to see it, I can send it to you in advance."
