"The music source will be released soon. Remember to like it before listening to the song. The template format of the message has been sent before, so just follow that message."
"Although some people may have already listened to the stolen album, you still have to listen to it and don't stop playing! You must hit the number one spot in the music source data today!"
Five minutes before midnight on May 1st, Lin Chengxian was constantly giving reminders and instructions in a .p fan group that he was active in and led.
Lin Chengxian, who is 25 years old this year, has been a fan of BigBang since the days of "Day by Day". She is considered a veteran fan. Because she has a good family and a good job, she has a lot of time to chase her idols.
The reason why I am still active in the front line of chasing stars even though I am almost past the age of chasing stars is not only because I really like Big Bang’s music style, but also because I have exactly the same Korean name as the three members of Big Bang, Choi Seung Hyun and Lee Shengli. It gave her a wonderful sense of fate, as if she was destined to become their fan.
Over the years, she has gained quite a reputation among BigBang fans. She has led them to support and rank their idols in various ways. This time, BigBang's return after three years is naturally not to be missed. They started preparing a long time ago, and finally waited for the moment when the sound source was about to be released.
But to be honest, even though Big Bang is here, Lin Chengxian is still a little nervous. As someone who is active in the front line of kpop star chasing, she naturally knows very well what level of popularity EXO is today. In her opinion, even if Bigbang's peak period in the past few years was nothing more than this. This was a judgment she made with some bias in her heart.
And the sales volume of EXO is the most scary thing. The sales figures of each album no longer belong to the kpop style. No matter what period of time, it is difficult for bigbang to match it. Even reaching half of it is very difficult. difficulty
Not to mention the group of idiots named Aili, one or two of them are like lunatics, and there are many of them with slutty mouths. During this period of time, Lin Chengxian has been fighting with each other online, but unfortunately he has the upper hand very rarely.
However, no matter what, in the end, the results of the respective owners will speak for themselves, and this time is the best opportunity.
It was close to zero at this time, and Lin Chengxian's fan group was very active at this time, and the screen was dazzling.
"There are still three minutes left, I can't wait any longer."
"I guarantee that you are satisfied. I already got the stolen album of "m" yesterday and have listened to it. I can only say that both songs are very good."
"Is there any news from EXO? Someone from their side must have escaped, right?"
"Yes, I don't know the details, but I heard that Di Tuan's songs are pretty good this time..."
Album sneaking means that record stores that have already received the album secretly sell some albums before the release date specified by the company. This situation basically happens every time an artist returns, but the quantity is usually very small.
"I took a look, and Bigbang has been at the top of Melon's daily search rankings for five consecutive days. It's really impressive! It proves that our audience is still so big, and many passers-by are looking forward to the return of Obamas."
"But exo has always been ranked second..."
"Axi, why are they everywhere?"
"It's public!"
As the hour hand reached zero, the sound sources and MVs of the four songs "O" by EXO and "M" by BigBang were all updated and uploaded on the website. After someone in the group shouted, the screen that was still scrolling immediately became calm down.
Lin Chengxian also hurriedly clicked on the already laggy webpage and immediately watched the music videos of two songs "loser" and "baebae" from Big Bang's single album "m".
Lin Chengxian was still very excited after watching it with satisfaction. In her opinion, the quality of these two songs was very high, and the MVs were also shot very well. The level of the first single album that was released three years ago was not as good as it should be. Her previous expectations were dashed.
Just when she was about to blow a rainbow fart in the group, she hesitated for a moment, and with the idea of knowing herself and her enemy, she went to SM's official account and clicked on EXO's entry, watched the MV of "lht", and listened to it again. Included song "Orientation Sniper".
Fortunately, "lht" is still in EXO's usual style. The MV was shot very handsomely, especially the shot of Chi Jingyuan looking back. Lin Chengxian's heart skipped a beat. He couldn't help but click the back button and rewind and watch it several times in a row. all over.
Even if I hate exo, especially their fans. But while she was slandering him, she had to admit in her heart that this Diguang's appearance really killed her. At the same time, she also understood why Chi Jingyuan's popularity was so outstanding among top groups like EXO.
However, after watching the MV, she was temporarily relieved. In her opinion, this song was good but not particularly outstanding. Compared with the previous two months, she actually liked the first two xo title songs "Call Me Baby". "There is a big difference between "Spring Day" and "Spring Day". It can only be regarded as a pure dance song above the standard. At least in her opinion, it is not as good as "Loser".
It's just that I couldn't help but bring it up again when I listened to the next song.
"You are my orientation sniper, my orientation sniper."
"It goes without saying that you can feel it, from head to toe."
In the first sentence, Chi Jingyuan's sunny and lazy singing voice and introduction immediately made Lin Chengxian startled.
The sound and melody are so touching and unexpectedly good.
"Oh oh, your gentle smile."
"Oh oh, and the eyes looking at me."
"It's just flawless."
The relaxing melody of the whole song, the long magnetic rap section and the sweet lyrics are all particularly to her liking. As she listened to it, she felt a lot more relaxed without even realizing it, and she naturally recalled that song in her mind. Once we met, we thought we were destined to be the one.
After the joy, a hint of melancholy gradually emerged in my heart, but it was not objectionable. On the contrary, it precipitated and sublimated the feelings in my heart.
Such a sweet, refreshing and romantic song.
When the progress bar ended and the song gradually faded, Lin Chengxian looked at the eye-catching song title on the web page with some confusion.
"Orientation Sniper"
So handsome...and such an appropriate song title.
She really felt that the title of the song was so cool and so touching, because she felt as if the emotional point in her heart had really been hit by a sniper gun, and there was an indescribable emotion.
However, remembering his mission as the big sister of the .p fan group, Lin Chengxian pursed his lips and glanced at the song title and the word "yuan" written by the songwriter below. His eyes stopped for two seconds and then he quickly switched back to the fan club.
At this time, more than ten minutes have passed, and the group chat that had stalled just now started to refresh the screen at a very fast speed. Bigbang fans who had watched the MV and listened to the song were excitedly expressing their joy and excitement.
"Breaking the record again! It sounds really good! I really like the style of "baebae"."
""Loser" is also great. I think based on the quality of these two songs, Big Bang's return this time can really hit the Enclave group directly. It made those idiot fans arrogant for so long. It really pissed me off. "
"By the way, has anyone listened to Di Tuan's new song? How does it feel?"
"Listen to it, to be honest, it sounds pretty good. The title song may be a little weaker than the ones in the previous two months, but the song "Orientation Sniper" included here is really good."
Lin Chengxian nodded in agreement when he saw their chat, and started typing quickly to give instructions: "Don't stop playing the songs. The listening volume on the first day must be increased, and don't forget the work of controlling reviews. Although " The quality of the songs of "m" is unexpectedly good, but the other party's popularity is not lower than ours. Now melon's online listening ratio is only a little lower than ours. You know how big the fans can be. Sisters, please don't main idea."
】
Now, twenty minutes after midnight on May 1st, it is very clear on melon that four songs including "Loser" and "Baebae" by Big Bang, "Lht" and "Orientation Sniper" by Exo occupy the entire market. 94% of the listening volume, the four songs are 26%, 24% and 22%, 22% respectively.
This data is calculated by dividing the number of people currently listening to this song online by the total number of people currently online, which means that out of 100 people online today, 94 people are listening to these four songs.
All other songs combined accounted for only 6%, which shows how much attention and waiting people the two boy bands' confrontation has brought.
""Loser" and "Baebae" melon broke the charts again! But "Orientation Sniper" also broke..."
"Half an hour after it was released, "Loser" has already received nearly 10,000 likes, but both of Di Tuan's songs also have 8,000 likes. The figures are very close."
"Currently among the top ten music charts, "Loser" occupies the first place on six charts, and the other four charts are ranked first by the earth group... But the one with the highest gold content is Melon, who is ours."
Reports of various results are constantly displayed in the group. With the support of fans and passers-by, the music sources of Big Bang and Exo are competing fiercely in every line. However, currently, Big Bang’s two songs still have some advantages. It also made us feel more at ease.
"Don't just listen to songs. You must remember to click on the MV on YouTube and don't stop. Clicking on YouTube was originally our strength, but recently it was surpassed by Di Tuan. We must click back this time. ." All the gratifying achievements made Lin Chengxian very happy, and he continued to direct the crowd by typing quickly.
Because of their unique music style and distinctive music videos, YouTube clicks have always been BigBang’s strength. They are also the Peninsula boy group with the most views of over 100 million.
Originally, there was still a gap between EXO and them. Even though the number of views on the MV for "Paoxiao" was not too explosive, starting from last year's "Dope", EXO's YouTube views, which had always lagged behind other data, began to increase at a speed visible to the naked eye. By last month's "Haruhi", it was no longer a shortcoming. "Haruhi" successfully broke through 20 million views in 110 hours, setting a record for the shortest time for a Peninsula idol group's MV to reach 20 million views. This made EXO become the biggest YouTuber in the Peninsula boy group.
"Don't worry, Ernie, the computer won't be turned off tonight, and the YouTube broadcast will be uninterrupted!"
"That's right, we must break the record of "Spring Day" to see if those idiots are still arrogant there every day."
"Don't be careless. We can do it, but the opponent can do it better than us. Don't forget those who have suffered losses before."
Seeing that all the .p's were enthusiastic and united because of the quality of their own songs and sound sources, Lin Chengxian was also very excited. After posting a few more posts, he raised a key question in the group: "Although the advantages are not yet It’s quite big, but it seems that we are in the lead now in terms of music source performance, but in addition to the music source, sales are equally important. After today’s official release, each of us core fans should buy at least five copies to increase the first-day sales. After all, the single album price is not expensive... Previous pre-orders don’t count.”
Lin Chengxian knows very well that good sound source is only one aspect. Basically, no one in the top group can walk on one foot. They must be able to achieve good results in all aspects.
The sound source itself is BigBang's strength. They are ahead but not by much, but sales are their rival's strength. Even if they may not be able to beat them, they cannot be too far behind. If they fall too far behind, they themselves will feel embarrassed. Don't start.
"Five cards should be fine, but will it not be enough? I have a good friend named Ai Li. I heard from her that each member of their core group can buy at least 10 cards, and there is no upper limit."
"…………"
Seeing this, both Lin Chengxian and others were a little silent. Whether they were willing to admit it or not, no boy group in the entire peninsula could rival EXO in terms of sales, which could reach half or even half of the other party's. One-third can be considered a top-notch boy band in terms of sales.
I really don’t know where those idiot fans got so much money and energy to move their albums there. Are they crazy?
Also, why doesn't YG release a Chinese version of BigBang's album...
"By the way, who knows what the pre-sales are for us and the Earth Group?"
This is what someone in the fan group that suddenly became a little deserted suddenly asked.
"..."
This question was like pulling out the power plug for other fans. The entire group suddenly seemed to have a power outage and no one could see the refresh screen. It took a while before someone scrawled a few words to reply, even if it was just a simple reply. The words still highlight a sense of reluctance and impatience.
"For physical products, we have tens of thousands, which is pretty good... Our main digital sales are very good."
"What about the Earth Group?"
"..."
"?"
"...Pre-sale, more than 500,000 yuan, which is normal for them."
"..."
What is more deserted than deserted is silence.
…
After releasing their sound source and music video from Zero Point, the four songs from Big Bang and Exo's comeback immediately became the focus of the entire peninsula's music industry. Many people who don't usually pay attention to kpop couldn't help but click in and try to listen to such a lively scene. After a while, some may think it sounds good and buy the specialties and start chasing them. Some may feel that they just fork it out but they remember the names of the two groups. Unknowingly, the whole market seems to have become bigger.
Ariel and .P, who have been preparing for a long time, are frantically working on each other's idol rankings, clicking, and listening. The fight has not stopped from zero o'clock until dawn. The battle is extremely fierce.
However, due to the factors of song quality and the listening and intervention of more objective passers-by, the rankings on the music source list have basically become more obvious. Bigbang, which has a huge public record, relied on its first single "m" in Two high-quality songs "Loser" and "Baebae" rank in the top two of most music source lists, while EXO's "Lht" and "Orientation Sniper" follow closely behind in the third and fourth places.
Not enough, there are a few lists where xo is leading and bigbang is lagging behind.
Generally speaking, BigBang currently has the advantage in terms of music sources, but EXO is not bad either, and they are following closely and not falling behind.
What's interesting is that among the two songs in EXO's "O" album, the title song "lht" is not rated very high. After all, a pure dance song itself should be viewed in conjunction with the stage. However, the non-feature song "Orientation Sniper" is catching up with the former at a speed visible to the naked eye in terms of listening and popularity. It has even surpassed the title song in several charts, ranking third or first.
The comments in the comment area below about this song's style, lyrics, melody, and title are all very good.
Especially the title of the song. After seeing this word, in less than a day, people on the Internet started to quote this word as a trendy catchphrase.
In terms of audio sources, the results have been temporarily compared. Although the sales volume has not been released on the first day, due to the huge gap in pre-sales, no one in .p has actually mentioned this issue.
Both sides have advantages in their respective fields and no one wants to give in to the other. Now many people are waiting to see who will win the first song competition show between the two groups.
Friday, May 1st, Golden Day.
Chi Jingyuan got up from bed early before dawn. First, he went to the beauty salon with his team to get a look. Then, instead of taking the main entrance to work with the members, he entered KBS alone through the staff passage at the back door. building.
He was really busy today. In addition to being a regular MC who was making his debut for the first time, he needed to meet in advance to confirm today's process, review scripts with his partners, interview artists backstage, rehearse the MC's announcement stage, and other tasks. He also needed to be an EXO member in his own right. The identity was interviewed, rehearsed and pre-recorded for today's two return stages.
It can be said that today he will start working from the moment he walks into this building.
Just when the fans squatting outside the KBS building were wondering why EXO didn't see Yuan when they came to work, Chi Jingyuan had already arrived at the conference room of the "Music Bank" program team and started a meeting with the PD and the main creators to determine today's The workflow and key points were discussed with Bae Zhuhyun using the script.
All interactions and dialogues are actually designed by the writer before, but these things can only roughly delineate a framework. The specific performance and effect still depend on whether Chi Jingyuan and Bae Zhuhyun's previous tacit understanding and interpretation are in place, and whether they can It shows the kind of sweet, ambiguous but not greasy and offensive feeling that the program team and PD need.
"Loser, loner, coward."
"The bad guy with bad character, you in the mirror."
The script was almost finished and it was time to take a short break. Chi Jingyuan sat on the small sofa in the MC waiting room with his legs crossed. He was humming quietly while looking at the several important parts marked by the writer on the script.
"Why do you sing Big Bang's songs? You are so competitive now." Pei Zhuxuan, who was sitting on the same sofa and about half a meter away, raised his head after hearing this, and his eyes shifted from the script in his hand to Chi Jingyuan, She glanced at him and said with a curious tone.
The recording hasn't started yet, so Bae Zhuhyun is wearing private clothes at this time. A light-colored sweater with a cute bear pattern painted in the middle. Paired with jeans and sneakers, it highlights a lively and natural feeling. The whole person looks much younger.
"It sounds nice. I really like this song."
Chi Jingyuan glanced at her, shrugged naturally, then looked away, shook his head slightly, and continued to hum the song "Loser" by Big Bang.
He really likes this song and thinks the melody is very good and unique.
Not only fans, but EXO members themselves are also very concerned about the results of this collision between the two boy groups. Everyone who returned to the dormitory as soon as midnight yesterday listened to two songs by Big Bang. The evaluation is subjective and objective. mixed reviews.
However, Chi Jingyuan rated the two songs very well, and he really liked the song "Loser".
"You and I seem to be set up to become the sad clowns being teased in the play..."
He nodded his head and hummed happily, but before he was halfway through the song, he was interrupted by Bae Zhuhyun slapping his hand with his hand.
"No, stop singing this song. It sounds weird. Sing something else with me." When their eyes met, Pei Zhuxuan wrinkled her nose slightly and looked at him angrily. The script she had been holding in her hand just now was also clasped in her hand. aside.
"What are you singing?" Chi Jingyuan pursed his lips and raised his chin to express ok, and asked casually while leaning on the sofa.
"..."
Seeing this, Pei Zhuhyun glanced at the assistant and staff sitting in the corner of the lounge acting as transparent people, smiled, looked away from his face and looked forward, and began to hum softly: "You are My orientation sniping, my orientation sniping.”
Chi Jingyuan paused for a moment when he heard this familiar melody, and smiled when he saw Bae Zhuhyun skillfully singing this song that had just been released eight hours ago, and gently followed the other person's rhythm, He also hummed along in a low voice:
“Sneakers with slim ankles, a perfect match with blue close-fitting jeans…”
When he came to this sentence, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but look at the other person up and down, and seemed to notice the other person's eyes. Pei Zhuxuan glanced at him and swung his left and right legs to change his sitting position.
Their voices were not loud but they blended well together, and they cooperated with each other very well. Under the relaxing melody of "Orientation Sniper", the air around them seemed to be dyed with a lively color.
"How did you come up with the title?"
The time of a song was very fast, and the two of them had a lot of things to do later. After looking at the staff over there, they were already waving their hands in this direction. Pei Zhuxuan stopped humming, and then raised his head slightly and looked at Chi Jingyuan with watery eyes and asked. .
"..."
Seeing the other party's look, Chi Jingyuan knew what Pei Zhuxuan was thinking, or what she wanted to hear.
As he stood up from the sofa, he blinked into the other person's eyes: "Would you be very happy if I said that I thought of this song title because of it?"
"Liar!"
"Let's go!"
The expected smile did not appear. Pei Zhuxuan glanced at him and hummed. He walked behind him and gently patted Chi Jingyuan's butt without anyone noticing. He left a word of urging and then passed him directly towards the waving staff. Bian walked over.
At a glance, she seemed to be in a good mood with brisk steps. She twisted her slightly raised hips as she walked, and there was a familiar humming sound coming from the front.
