Chapter 120 June: The Celestial Empire Ahead, Cold Wave Forbidden Travel
In the dormitory.
“Youyou, if you hadn’t told us, I really wouldn’t have believed that this album is so amazing.”
Xia Youyou's two roommates were deeply moved. They were practically fans of Tianyi, but neither of them knew about this.
Upon hearing this, Nie Qiuqin, though silent, clearly scoffed at it from her expression.
"This kind of thing is just a rumor; when you really compare it, it's not that powerful."
Ultimately, being a student, Nie Qiuqin couldn't help but speak up.
Xia Youyou just smiled and casually said, "Youyou's words make sense, but this also proves how powerful Tianyi is."
"What kind of proof is this?" my roommate asked, puzzled.
"I think anyone else could have done the same thing; Zhou Tianyi was just lucky."
Before Xia Youyou could explain, Nie Qiuqin spoke up.
This time, Xia Youyou did not agree, but said very seriously, "No, it won't work with anyone else."
"oh?"
The three of them exclaimed in unison in confusion, then looked at Xia Youyou.
Xia Youyou explained:
"Why Tianyi when no one else can?"
"Because everyone knew at the time that if even Tianyi couldn't be bought, then no one else could play either."
"So eventually there has to be a first person, someone has to start this, someone has to lead this path."
"After all, people had been accustomed to offline life for so many years, and new things like online were not accepted by them at the time."
"This also shows that, given Tianyi's fame at the time, he was worthy of being called the number one person in the Chinese music scene."
After hearing Xia Youyou's explanation, the three of them fell silent.
Nie Qiuqin shifted uncomfortably and continued looking at Zhang San's scarf.
...
After listening to Ah Hao's story, the two suddenly understood.
You wouldn't know unless you were told; once you did, it really woke them both up.
If it weren't for Ah-hao's explanation, they really wouldn't have thought of that.
"No wonder they went to Zhou Tianyi; it seems only he could do that," Xiao Hei exclaimed.
Ah Hao nodded and said, "Yes, this wave in May is the result of the joint efforts of the platform and Tianyi."
"So Tianyi won in May." Little Fatty has even started to answer first.
"What about June?" Xiao Hei asked.
"June?" Ah Hao smiled dismissively.
"Stop laughing, tell us quickly," the two said in unison.
Distracted, Ah-hao rolled his eyes at the two of them, and said honestly:
"June, I can only describe it with eight words."
"Which eight characters?" the two asked again.
Upon hearing this, Ah Hao coughed lightly, then his voice descended like a thunderclap from the heavens:
"That is—the cold wave is moving in from the Celestial Empire ahead!"
Upon hearing this, the two were instantly dumbfounded.
They exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of amazement in each other's eyes.
After a long while, Xiao Hei came to his senses and said, "Holy crap, you're making this album sound like a fantasy novel."
"You scared me! You're buying dinner tonight!" Little Fatty was furious.
"Don't you guys think it's pretty awesome?" Ah Hao retorted.
Xiao Hei replied, "It sounds domineering, but it sounds like a fantasy."
Upon hearing this, Ah Hao chuckled and said, "You may not care now, but you'll understand once I finish explaining."
"Then hurry up and tell us!" the two said in unison.
Ah-hao gave an awkward smile before saying:
"The album released in June is called 'David Zhou.' I personally think it opened the door to the Sinicization of Western music and is an extremely imaginative album."
At this point, Ah-hao glanced at their expressions, and seeing that they were very focused, he continued:
Why do you say that?
"Because this album pioneered a genre, a genre unique to Chinese pop."
"This genre is called Chinese R&B."
"Previously, no one had ever combined the characteristics of Chinese pop music with R&B. It was after this album that Chinese R&B truly began to take shape."
"Its emergence further expanded the influence of Chinese culture, no longer confined to the Celestial Empire, but spreading to the Asian continent and even the West."
"It was from this album that Zhou Tianyi officially knocked on the door of the Asian superstar and began to move towards the throne of the Asian superstar."
Fearing that the two might not understand what R&B meant, Ah-hao kindly explained the meaning of R&B to them again.
With Ah Hao's explanation, the two finally understood his words deeply. Because of this, they were so surprised that they couldn't even describe Zhou Tianyi's astonishment in words.
Throughout history, anyone who has been able to create a new school of thought, regardless of their industry, has been a master.
Because these people have reached the end of their own domain, they are walking a path that has never been seen before.
Zhou Tianyi created a school of thought at a young age, and although it was not yet mature, it was enough to demonstrate his extraordinary talent.
"What about the cold wave?"
The two quickly recovered from their lapse in composure, and Xiao Hei hesitated for a moment before asking.
"A cold wave?"
Ah-hao pondered for a moment after hearing this, and then said...
“Those idol groups never imagined that Zhou Tianyi would create a genre, and that this genre would be so adaptable to the market.”
"Therefore, even if some idol groups join forces to deal with Zhou Tianyi, the outcome is already predetermined, and their expectations are destined to be dashed."
