Chapter 197: Hot on the Internet
"Good!"
The song "Little Apple" aroused the emotions of the Korean audience in the audience, and after the performance, they gave warm applause.
Wang Feng frowned after listening to the whole song.
This song, like "The Most Dazzling National Style", uses a 4/4 beat, a simple and lively melody, catchy lyrics and a down-to-earth style, all of which have the necessary conditions to become popular.
It seems that he posted the Weibo with great confidence, and he actually has something on his mind.
Judging from the current atmosphere in the theater, I am sure to lose this episode.
We can’t just sit and wait for the next round of competition. Now that the program rules are clear, we must try to create high-quality songs before the next recording begins to save our reputation.
Just as the singers expected, after they sang their songs, they all encountered different degrees of cold reception.
The audience thought the first group was the beginning, but unexpectedly it was the climax.
After the singers finished their performances, the program team collected votes from 500 audience members.
Five minutes later, the staff handed the collected data to the host, and the singers returned to the stage and lined up in a row.
"We collected 500 tickets in total, 480 for Feng Qi Wu Tong, 6 for Deng Xiaoyu, 5 for Wang Feng, 4 for Fei Yue Qi Ji, 3 for Zhang Huichen, and 2 for Mao Nan."
Lin Zhixing and Song Ge were quite surprised. When the other singers heard the number of votes, they lowered their heads in shame.
"I declare that the champion of the first Korean episode of "Singing Around the World" is Feng Qi Wu Tong. Let's give her a warm round of applause!"
Such a huge disparity in votes shocked the audience in the live broadcast room.
“I thought the gap would be huge, but I didn’t expect it to be this big!”
"Although the song is excellent, the number of votes is actually due to the Girls' Moment and the Korean lyrics."
“This song ‘Little Apple’ is amazing!”
…
The host handed over the microphone and said, "Okay, now let's invite tonight's champion to give a speech."
"Thank you for your support, friends. Thank you..."
After a series of thanks, Lin Zhixing looked at the audience who were recording the performance with their mobile phones, introduced himself in Korean, and advertised himself, "My name is Lin Zhixing. I am not only a singer and a songwriter, but also the owner of a music studio."
"Do you want to be a singer? Do you want the songs you sing to be in the top five of the music charts? Do you want to be famous? If you have a dream, please contact my studio. Thank you."
At present, my studio has only signed Dong Chen and Ji Yu, as well as two bands. The scale is a bit too small, and the commission earned is not much. In order to realize the idea of lying down and making money as soon as possible, I need to expand the team.
If it were a month ago, Lin Zhixing would never have advertised abroad, but now it is different. He has a "song selection card" that allows him to choose popular songs from any region in his previous life, so he is quite confident.
The audience applauded enthusiastically, but no one took it seriously. What fame? What top five music charts? It was just an exaggerated advertisement.
"good!"
After Lin Zhixing finished his speech, the host took the microphone and waved to the camera, saying, "Dear audience, see you next time!"
Backstage lounge.
"Thank you for your hard work!"
Director Hao Xu smiled brightly, raised his thumbs with both hands and said: "Today's live broadcast data is very good, all thanks to everyone's hard work."
"good!"
Everyone applauded and congratulated.
Lin Zhixing arranged his clothes and asked curiously, "Director Hao, which country are we going to record next time?"
"Um……"
Director Hao Xu pursed his lips and said uncertainly: "It has not been completely determined yet, but it is most likely an island country. It will be announced on the program Weibo in a few days."
“Not bad.”
In addition to his love of games, Dong Chen also loves watching anime. He is particularly obsessed with the island country's number one anime "Dragon Ball" and is looking forward to embarking on a trip to the island country.
"Brother Lin, I have already thought of a name for the island country."
Lin Zhixing looked at the grinning Dong Chen, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What?"
"Koichi Gojiro."
“6!”
…
…
Seoul International Airport.
While waiting for the flight, Lin Zhixing opened Weibo.
Unexpectedly, after only two hours, the topic of "Little Apple" rushed to the top of the hot search list.
[Another brainwashing song is born. Let's feel the magic of this song together! (Explosion)]
The topic received over 150,000 likes and over 80,000 comments, with the comment section receiving rave reviews.
"My son is two years old. He has listened to the screen recording 10 times so far. Every 20 minutes, he says, 'Mom, I want to listen to Xiao Ya Xiao Ting (Apple) Apple.'"
"First time I listened to it: What the hell? Second time I listened to it: You are my little apple! This song is amazing!"
"Never doubt Oh Ye Ge, this song 'Little Apple' has become a hit on Weibo, it's only a matter of time before it surpasses 'The Most Dazzling National Style'!"
"I like the dance to this song more than the song itself. It's so magical and joyful to watch!"
The song's popularity was not surprising.
After Lin Zhixing returned to the company, in order to increase the popularity of the song, he and Song Ge recorded the full version of "Little Apple" overnight, and uploaded it to the music platform in the form of three days of free trial listening.
The live version of "Singing Around the World" is in Korean, which middle-aged and elderly fans will not like, but they are the backbone of spreading the popularity.
After the song was uploaded, it received over 500,000 collections within an hour.
…
Uploaded on the day, 7pm.
Daxing Cultural Square.
"You are the most beautiful cloud in my sky"
"Let me keep you here with my heart"
The Daxing Square Dance Team still gathers in the most conspicuous location of the square after dinner every day to carry out daily physical and mental exercise.
Although the geographical location is good, the number of spectators nowadays is not as much as before, especially when the music of "The Most Exciting National Style" starts, they all stay away.
Because the masses are really tired of listening to the songs, no matter how good the songs are, they can’t stand listening to them every day. Even the name “Feng Qi Wu Tong” has gradually been forgotten by this group.
"Ah, once this song was played, there were crowds of people inside and outside."
"That's right. I'm tired of hearing and seeing it."
"Not only are they tired of it, I'm a little tired of it too."
The middle-aged women who were working so hard that they were sweating all over, chatted in between drinking water from their bottles.
Suddenly, one of them noticed a group of people gathered not far away. "Look what are they doing over there? They seem to be dancing too."
"What kind of dance attracts so many people? Let's go and see it together."
"Let's go."
The large group occupied the territory and did not leave. A few curious middle-aged women came over together.
"Excuse me, excuse me!"
The aunties pushed through the crowd and came to the front, where they saw a few young people dancing to the music.
"You are my little apple"
"I can never love you enough"
The dynamic music melody and interesting dance moves instantly attracted them, and a feeling emerged in their minds.
This dance is so trendy!
They couldn't help but join the young people's team. After dancing to a song, they all felt like they were ten years younger and felt very refreshed.
They fell in love with this dance and told each other about it in the WeChat group.
【A loving family】
[Rose Waiting for Love]: Please search for the dance “Little Apple”. I think it is very suitable for us.
【Four Seasons of Peace】: I know this song, my grandson loves listening to it!
【Gong Xi Fa Cai】：“Little Apple” dance moves (MP4).
For a time, this song spread among the elderly group like a virus.
…
Not only the elderly, but young people also like this magical song and dance. Its simple and easy-to-learn nature and its popularity among the public have made another dance group popular.
That is "flash mob". The so-called flash mob is that a lot of people gather in the same place to dance, and then leave quickly after dancing. It is considered a performance art for the purpose of being funny.
It originated in foreign countries and after it was introduced to China, due to the difficulty in unifying the dance movements, this type of dance groups were not very popular and could not be organized.
After the song "Little Apple" was released, all the shortcomings disappeared, making the group popular and gaining the support of many young people.
They not only appear in squares, but also in commercial streets and large shopping malls. In the previous second, the mall was still scattered with people, and in the next second, as the music started, people gradually gathered to dance together.
Weibo and short videos were all flooded with videos like "Flash Mob Dance at xx Mall in xx City".
The topic of "Little Apple" has been in the top three of Weibo's hot search list for three consecutive days, and its popularity is much higher than that of "The Most Exciting National Style".
…
The sixth episode of "I Am the King of Singers" (Part 2), the day before recording.
An edited version of the first episode of "Singing Around the World" was broadcast on Penguin Video. Two dance programs became popular and the ratings soared that the program crew couldn't believe it.
The day after the show aired, people in campuses, factories, and companies were all discussing the show in their spare time.
At noon, in a company cafeteria.
In the queue at the food window.
Kobayashi is a person who likes to share recommendations. If the movie or program he shares is successful, he can be happy all day long.
"Brother Hui, did you watch the show "Singing Around the World" yesterday? That show is so good. The recently popular 'Moonwalk' and the song 'Little Apple' all came from that show..."
Xiaohui looked at his colleague in front of him who was talking babble and spitting all over the place, interrupted him and shrugged his shoulders.
"What is 'Singing Around the World'? Isn't the show called 'Oh Yeah Brother's Pretentious Story'?"
…
…
The day of recording "I Am the King of Singers".
Two hours before the game, in the independent lounge.
Dong Chen leaned on the sofa, holding his phone and said boredly: "Brother Lin, why did Hongbo call us here so early?"
"A meeting."
Lin Zhixing replied while tapping on his notebook: "The content of the meeting should be about charity performances, responding to the overseas music circles and raising funds to help the hungry."
“I really want to participate!”
Dong Chen turned over and sat up, cheering himself up, clenching his fist and saying, "I will try my best to stay this time!"
After saying that, he raised his orchid finger and shouted, "Flying over the miracle, "I am the King of Singers" is accepting guests!"
“Wow!”
Ji Yu came to Lin Zhixing with her phone in hand, and held it up to show him, "Brother Lin, look, your Weibo authentication has two more tags."
"Um?"
Lin Zhixing took the phone and took a look. There were indeed two more tags under his Weibo avatar.
"Pioneer in the field of dance", "Dancer".
…
Half an hour later.
Inside the program meeting room.
"Hey, isn't this Xiao Lin who is very popular overseas? I see you on the trending searches every day. I'm your fan, can you give me an autograph?"
Zhao Weiwei joked and pulled Lin Zhixing, who had just walked in, to her side.
Yu Jiang smiled and patted Lin Zhixing on the shoulder. "Your song 'Little Apple' is so popular. I heard it three times on my way to the recording today!"
Not only Ku Miao, but other singers' eyes were also focused on him, making him the focus of the entire conference room.
Lin Zhixing couldn't help but recall the first time he participated in this program, also in this room, and these singers didn't even look at him.
Nowadays, whether it is good intentions or hostility, it feels really good.
Didn't talk for a while...
Chief Director Hong Bo walked in with a laptop in his hand and smiled, and sat down at the main seat. "It's been a week since we last met. Good afternoon, everyone!"
"Hello, Director Hong!"
After a few simple pleasantries, Hong Bo said bluntly: "The recording will start in an hour. I will tell you straight away so as not to interrupt your practice and rest time. A few days ago, I called you to talk about the charity performance after this episode."
"A lot of things were not made clear on the phone, so I will explain them in detail now. For this charity concert, we will adopt the singing partner method. I plan to choose the partners based on this round's ranking. The first place winner can choose a partner, then the second place winner can choose one, and so on."
“Finally, we’re going to sing a song together.”
Sing a song together?
The last sentence made the singers wonder. Pan Shuai hugged his shoulders and asked curiously: "What kind of song is suitable for so many people to sing?"
Hong Bo glanced at Lin Zhixing who was peeling dried fruit beside him, and explained with a smile: "The song has been found. It's a new song. The sponsor of our program likes it very much. I'll play it for everyone to listen to."
After saying that, he slid the mouse and clicked on the song file.
A new song that can be sung by many people? This aroused the curiosity of the singers and they all listened very carefully.
The soothing and melodious prelude sounded, very pleasant to the ear.
Soon, it was time for the verse part.
"Gently awaken the sleeping soul"
"Open your eyes slowly"
The voice is very familiar.
The singers in the conference room all looked at Song Ge.
“Look at the busy world”
“Am I still spinning alone?”
Next came Lin Zhixing's voice, followed by Dong Chen and Ji Yu.
"Let our smiles be filled with the pride of youth"
“Let’s hope for a better tomorrow”
The chorus is a chorus of them singing together.
Everyone understood that this was another new song created by Lin Zhixing.
Not to mention, the song was nice and in line with the theme. Zhao Weiwei took the lead in giving Lin Zhixing a thumbs up.
"Director Hong, can I not sing this song during the chorus?"
Following the direction of the voice, I saw Guo Jiahe suddenly raised his hand.
"Why?" Hong Bo asked puzzled.
Guo Jiahe stammered, "This song is good, but I'm not good at singing such sentimental songs. I'm afraid I won't sing well and ruin this charity performance."
"It doesn't matter."
Hong Bo smiled and waved his hand, "It won't mess up, everyone should participate."
Lin Zhixing looked at the reluctant Guo Jiahe and sneered in his heart: "If nothing unexpected happens, this song will be the best-selling single in your singing career."
By then, who will pull you to that height that does not belong to you?
“It’s me!!!”
