We drove on the highway in the morning and drove more than 400 kilometers in 4 hours. At noon, everyone stopped in a small town to eat something and then prepared to continue.
"How is it? Xiaoyun, are you okay? There will be no highway in the afternoon, and the remaining 200 to 300 kilometers are basically mountain roads." Du Sixi asked. After all, the people in Feng Xiaoyun's car were not in their group, so he was extra concerned about them.
"Don't worry, Captain Du, the three of us take turns driving this car." Feng Xiaoyun said there was no problem at all.
"Okay, every car has a walkie-talkie anyway. If anything happens, just tell them in time." Du Sixi patted Feng Xiaoyun's shoulder. The two of them have become very familiar with each other in the past month, so there is no need for too much courtesy.
On the road again, Sister Chen was driving and Feng Xiaoyun was sitting in the passenger seat.
"By the way, does our creative genius have any new songs recently?" Sister Chen chatted with Feng Xiaoyun and others while driving.
"Oh, Sister Chen, what you said is not that serious, not that serious." Feng Xiaoyun was still a little humble in front of Sister Chen.
"It seems our great talent doesn't know yet." Xu Linling said from behind, "Sister Yunzhen's album has been released, and your song 'Forgotten Time' topped the Chinese music charts last week."
"That's right. Since last week, my phone has been bombarded with calls from various singers' managers, both familiar and unfamiliar." Sister Chen said unhappily, "It's as if I'm your manager."
"Yeah," Xu Linling agreed. "Several executives from entertainment companies have even asked me if they can invite you to sing a song."
The response to songwriting may be very dull in the outside world. When a song becomes popular, people will sing along, learn about the singer, and listen to other works of the singer, but few people actually pay attention to who wrote the lyrics and music.
But it's different in the industry. In recent years, the Internet has developed, and all kinds of so-called online songs are popular. This doesn't mean that all online songs are bad, but as the base becomes larger, it seems that there are fewer and fewer high-quality ones.
Feng Xiaoyun wrote the song at lightning speed that night and came up with such a song that was able to top the charts, which really attracted the attention of people in the circle.
You have to know that Chinese is the first language used by more than three billion people in the world, and there are countless songs sung in Chinese. It is impossible for a song to reach the top just by luck.
"Is this song so popular?" Feng Xiaoyun certainly knew that this was a classic, but he didn't expect it to be so popular.
"There's an interesting story here. It seems like you two are completely oblivious to what's happening outside. If someone didn't know, they'd think your village just got internet access."
Xu Linling jokingly said, "At the time, a top-tier young actress also released an album, and her fans were saying online how could anyone buy an album from a singer like Yun Zhen, who had been singing for over ten or almost twenty years."
"Then a lot of old fans couldn't sit still. You know, Yunzhen was also very popular more than a decade ago, and it's no exaggeration to say that many people grew up listening to her songs. It's just that her album releases have gradually slowed down in the past two years, and her fans have all started families and careers, so they're not as enthusiastic as before."
"I don't know who started it, but Yunzhen's fans were shouting for Yunzhen to take the top spot on the trending search list, and they organized to vote and buy her albums."
"The fans of that popular young actress were not convinced at first and clamored to beat Yunzhen in sales. Guess what happened in the end?" Having said this, Xu Linling kept the others in suspense.
"Hey, Linling, tell me quickly, or I'll tickle you." Yan Zi was listening attentively. After all, it was a song written by Feng Xiaoyun.
"No, no, no, I'll tell you, I'll tell you," Xu Linling begged quickly. She was the most ticklish person. "As a result, two days later, the fans of that popular actress started complaining in the fan group, saying that their pocket money had been cut off. Because Sister Yunzhen's fans are basically their parents, and the money they gave to her for tips and album purchases was originally given by her parents, so the enthusiasm was immediately extinguished."
"In the end, Sister Yunzhen's album sales actually surpassed that popular young actress." When she said this, Xu Linling looked at Feng Xiaoyun with admiration. She was also present at the scene that day and truly felt Feng Xiaoyun's talent in this area.
"After all this talk, does our great talent have any new works? If Yan Zi can win an award at the Chinese Music Golden Disc Awards this time, he will definitely be preparing to release a new album. And it will definitely not be an EP, but a complete album with at least ten songs."
The Chinese Music Golden Disc Award is the most prestigious award for Chinese music worldwide, and the organizing committee has already sent out the nominees’ notice.
Yan Zi was nominated for this year's Best New Music Artist award. The song "Saying Goodbye" was also nominated for the Most Popular Original Song award.
At the same time, Feng Xiaoyun was also nominated for Best Songwriter.
"I don't really have any new works, but I will definitely write a few good songs for Yan Zi when the time comes."
"By the way, last time you sang that song where cold dog food was randomly slapped on the face, can you sing it seriously again?" Yan Zi asked curiously. She remembered the two or three lines of the song that Feng Xiaoyun sang sometimes when he had nothing to do, and she had always wanted to hear it.
Originally, she wanted to say what Feng Xiaoyun had said to her at the beginning, "Give me a better rival in love." But Xu Linling was sitting next to her. Wouldn't it be too easy for people to misunderstand if she asked this?
Although Yan Zi's emotional intelligence is not very high, he still has some vision.
"Haha, you still remember it?" This song was sung by Yan Zi to fool Yao Xian'er while they were having dinner together at night after the two of them recorded their first variety show "How to Escape from the Secret Room". Unexpectedly, Yan Zi still remembered it.
