"Okay, that's how it is. Let's do this for the next half month."
In a cafe, a young man and woman had just finished their work conversation and started chatting.
"Hey, Sister Zhang, I have a big discovery here!"
“Have you heard the song ‘Someone Like Me’?”
This young man in his twenties with a fashionable hairstyle and a handsome face was talking and dialing his cell phone.
"Oh? This song title... I have never heard of it. What big discovery have you made?"
A woman in her thirties, dressed in a smart OL outfit, took off her sunglasses and looked at him with an incomprehensible look.
The young man in front of him is the artist he currently has the best chance of winning the first place in this month's new artist and new song list. He has always been quite proud, so why did he suddenly mention someone else's song?
"Listen first and then speak after you have finished."
Xiao Wang changed his usual smiling expression, made a "please" gesture with a serious face, and handed over the headphones in his hand.
"All right……"
She put headphones in her ears.
The melodious prelude flows, and then comes Jiang Kan's pure, melodious and magnetic voice.
Just listening to the first sentence, the hairs on the back of Sister Zhang's hands stood up.
After listening to the first four sentences, a dense layer of goosebumps appeared on her shoulders and arms.
Xiao Wang, on the other hand, stared at her expression intently while drinking the coffee from the cup with interest.
"call……"
A few minutes passed, and the song in the headphones had finished playing.
Sister Zhang even listened to the outro attentively. She took off her earplugs with a surprised look on her face, picked up the half-cold coffee with a dry mouth, and drank half a cup of it in one go.
"How's it going? Do you feel it?"
Xiao Wang asked with a proud look on his face.
"Awesome, so awesome."
Sister Zhang has been working in the artist business for almost ten years.
She can tell whether a singer's voice is good or bad better than ordinary people.
Let’s not talk about the melody of this song.
With this singing skill alone, a person with extraordinary talent would never be able to sing such a beautiful voice unless he practiced for seventeen or eight years.
"My song has been downloaded 120,000 times in this month's new artist and new song list. It was already a sure bet."
He pointed to Sister Zhang's mobile phone on the table, which happened to be on the list page.
"But this song has only been uploaded for less than a day, and it has already reached the 20th place on the new song list, and has been downloaded more than 10,000 times!"
As Xiao Wang said this, he felt the veins on his forehead jump a little.
"I uploaded the song at one second past midnight on the first of this month. It has been almost ten days and it has only been downloaded 120,000 times!"
He felt his throat was a little dry and subconsciously picked up the coffee cup to take a sip, but was surprised to find that the cup was empty.
"We have also done so much publicity and placed so many advertisements. We have invested millions in publicity expenses alone, right?"
He stared at Sister Zhang's mouth that opened and closed, muttering somewhat to herself.
In order to build momentum and accumulate fans for the upcoming rookie song championship, he has been working extra hard this month.
"But this guy hasn't advertised a single thing. At least my friends and I have never heard of who this new guy called 'Talk Talk' is..."
"How did he get so aggressive all of a sudden? You see, just as we are talking, the number of downloads has increased hundreds of times!"
Sister Zhang looked into his eyes and couldn't hide her shock.
"Indeed, I have never heard of this person or this voice. It shouldn't be a small account opened by some veteran pretending to be a newcomer..."
Sister Zhang calmed down and took over Xiao Wang's words.
"I listened to this song. It is indeed of high quality. Not only is it well sung, but it is also well written."
"What's even more valuable is that the composition and lyrics of this song were all written by the singer himself!"
"And judging from the voice, he should be a very young boy! He is so impressive at such a young age, how will he develop in the future?"
"This is so unusual! Could it be that a real dark horse will emerge this month?"
Sister Zhang's fingers tapped the table in turn, her face was solemn, and she was mumbling something.
…
Xiaowei is a senior music enthusiast.
Apart from watching dramas, my biggest hobby in life is listening to music.
In addition to food and clothing, half of the living expenses provided by the family were spent on purchasing memberships on major video platforms, and the other half was spent on buying songs.
He is also an old member of Feixing Music Network who registered ten years ago.
A song download costs five yuan, and a senior member like him can buy it for four yuan.
He had just come back from class today. He still had half an hour before lunch at 12 noon, so he planned to watch a drama first and then listen to music to rest his brain, which had been tortured by high math all morning.
As soon as I took out my phone, I heard a new message notification sound in the WeChat group!
"Have these guys discovered any good songs again?"
He went in curiously.
Good guy, hundreds of comments have been bounced around for a long time!
When he looked carefully, they seemed to be talking about a new song called "Someone Like Me."
"Hey, let me tell you, this song is really amazing! If you haven't heard it, go listen to it!"
"Yes, I was deeply attracted the first time I heard it. Not only is the song beautiful, but the lyrics are also unique!"
"My brother recommended it to me. He said he has been playing it on loop all morning!"
"The lyrics are so well written. I feel like they must have been written based on my life experience. A person as good as me is still moving bricks on a construction site."
"Come on, the contractor with the white hat still has the nerve to say that he is moving bricks..."
"My sister has gone crazy. She has been crying and laughing while listening to this song for more than an hour. Someone come and save her!"
"address!"
"I recommended it to my dad. He was reluctant at first, but now he has been smoking alone on the balcony for more than an hour without saying a word!"
…
Looking at the messages in this music sharing group, Xiaowei was so shocked that his mouth opened wide!
"No, you have to listen quickly to see if this song is really as amazing as they make it sound!"
Skillfully open Feixing Music Network's APP and click on the new artist and new song rankings.
Sure enough, on the first page, I saw this new song called "Someone Like Me"!
It was uploaded last night, and so far, it has been downloaded more than 10,000 times!
Quickly click on the song, click on the preview button, and plan to pay the four yuan purchase fee to download it immediately if it sounds good.
Without having time to put on his Sennheiser worth more than 2,000 yuan, Xiaowei listened to the song directly in the dormitory on his mobile phone.
The melodious prelude sounded slowly, and within 5 seconds, Xiaowei's heart was completely immersed in it.
As the lyrics began to sound, his face, which originally held an expectant smile, seemed to have been hit by the oncoming waves. His brows were furrowed and his expression was solemn.
The style of this song was something he had never heard of before.
The singer of this song also has a rare and natural singing voice. He is perfect in maintaining high notes, low notes and breath.
This also made him quickly immersed in it, listening to Jiang Kan's low singing with all his concentration.
