I started to become more self-disciplined at the age of 30

Chapter 35. Traffic is coming, how to monetize it?
Sometimes, Jiang Chen couldn't help but admire the power of these headline parties.

Even a rational person like him knows that these are all clickbait titles and the content definitely does not match the title.

However, he still clicked in and started to read.

The title party still wins.

Jiang Chen was also curious, what was going on with a fifty-year-old woman guarding the country's border?

Which original singing host in Shanghai can turn the tide?

Singing King Contest?
Wasn’t that competition suspended for two years?

Jiang Chen clicked on the news with questions in mind.

As soon as you enter, the first thing you see is a video of several minutes, which is a clip of the live performance of the first episode of the King of Singers Contest that just ended.

Logically speaking, the contestants in China's singing king competition should all be Chinese singers.

However, after two years of silence, the King of Singers Contest, which was re-broadcasted, went directly to the world, added a challenge system, and even invited two young foreign singers with great strength and talent to challenge. The high-pitched bursts they displayed on the spot stunned all the participating Chinese singers!

Most ordinary audiences can see that the strength of the two foreign contestants and several domestic singers are almost not on the same level.

So, it’s no surprise that the two challengers took the top two places in the first episode!
The third place is none other than the domestic veteran female singer, the 50-year-old lady Ye Lan, a veteran and powerful singer who has been active in the music scene for more than 30 years. This time she sang her own masterpiece, a relatively difficult piece, but her on-site strength was really lacking, and in the end she could only be ranked third!

The other Chinese singers were even worse than Ye Lan, so they posed no threat to the two foreign contestants who came to challenge her.

However, the appearance of the band Handover Rose caused a bit of a stir at the scene.

It’s not because this band is very strong, but because their style is different from everyone else, it’s like others are here to compete in singing seriously, but they are here to be funny.

So much so that some people say - we can't beat you, but we can make you unable to understand.

After watching the commentary video for a few minutes, Jiang Chen agreed that this singing competition was really carried out by a fifty-year-old lady.

The clickbait title this time is not too extreme, and the content and title are mostly consistent.

Among the tens of thousands of comments below, most of the domestic audience were offering suggestions, some asking the program team to invite more talented singers, and some asking Ye Lan to come up with a difficult song...

Jiang Chen also frowned slightly.

As a Chinese, he really felt that this loss was a bit ugly.

Because, among the domestic singers participating in the competition, there are powerful singers of the older generation like Ye Lan, as well as several other young singers who are currently very popular. It can be said to be a combination of the old and the new, and they are also a group of outstanding people in the current Chinese music scene!
but……

But he was crushed by two new foreign singers who had just debuted and gained some fame!

"It is reported that the program team will invite stronger foreign singers to challenge in the next episode. Some people speculate that it may be Adam, while others speculate that it may be Brother Broken Finger. These two are both top-notch and powerful singers who are popular in Europe and the United States. If they really come to the King of Singers, I can't imagine how ugly their defeat will be."

The comments below are even more pessimistic.

I can't even defeat two unknown soldiers, and now there's a more powerful general...

how to spell?
Do we really have to rely on a fifty-year-old woman to guard the country?
Jiang Chen looked at himself and realized that he only had advanced singing skills, and he was really powerless.

He could tell from the video that the 50-year-old lady's singing level was definitely better than his, and her strength was at the master level.

The singing skills of the two foreign new singers are not better than those of the 50-year-old man, but they have the advantage of hardware talent and age. In addition, they are singing live, which is what foreign singers are good at but domestic singers are not good at. The gap is further widened.

However, when he clicked on the related video, which showed a super original singing host in Shanghai, asking whether he could turn the tide, he was stunned for a moment.

Because, the person who appeared in the video was actually himself!

It was a video of him singing in the live broadcast room, which was recorded and posted online.

From the songs he sang in Thirty Years of Ideals, to Flowers Blooming in Parting, The Lingering Fragrance, Single Love Songs, I Suffer from the Cold Wind for You, and the song he just sang today, all of them are there.

It also includes footage of him singing live in a bar, the dense barrage of comments in the live broadcast room, and footage of more than a hundred people queuing outside the bar.

"This is a treasure anchor I discovered by accident. Every song he sings is original. He just started live streaming recently and sings a new song every day. With only a few thousand followers, there are as many as 5,000 people online in his live streaming room, and he gives more than 50,000 tips every day. He is definitely a buried treasure singing anchor."

"I heard that he is now live-streaming his singing at a bar street in Shanghai every day. I will go to the scene tomorrow if I have time to see if his live performance is just as impressive."

"Moreover, he himself said that next time he goes to Bar Street for a live broadcast, he will sing a new song, which is definitely not to be missed."

……

Jiang Chen discovered that this video had been viewed a lot, with over a thousand people leaving comments. The one with the most likes made Jiang Chen blush.

"It turns out that there are many talented people among the people! How long has it been since the Chinese music scene released a hit song? Both the older and newer generation singers are immersed in the era of traffic and trying to make money from their old achievements, without focusing on their music and singing skills. They have been awakened by the foreigners, right? Maybe this anchor will have to save the Chinese music scene."

The number of likes exceeded one thousand.

Jiang Chen is like Alexander. If he were to be on the show, he would definitely be crushed.

Many of the comments below are also relatively positive, with only a few being different.

"Wow, they are all new songs. I just downloaded them. They are really nice."

"Is there such a treasure anchor? I haven't paid attention to his new songs in more than ten years, because the pop music in China in recent years is a mess. I didn't expect that this anchor's new songs are so good. I support him and download them."

"Is it true? Could it be another fake product packaged and sold by some company to make money?"

"See through but don't say it!"

"Whether they are fake products packaged and operated by a company to make money, these songs are really good, and that's enough."

"Let's go to Bar Street tomorrow to see if it's true!"

"Let's go together tomorrow!"

……

Jiang Chen glanced at the comments and saw a lot of related news headlines of the same kind.

"A super musical genius suddenly appeared in Shanghai, releasing a new song every day. Are you scared?"

"This is the grand scene of the queues on Bar Street. I was there at the time and listened to Lao Jiang's new song "Horse Herding City". I felt that the trip was worthwhile and I will go again tomorrow!"

“The future of Chinese music lies not in the music industry, but in the live streaming studio!”

"Horse-herding city, a fairy tale for adults, you're awesome if you can hold back your tears!"

“Why would a grown man break down and cry?”

"When the whistle blows, I return to my youth!"

……

Jiang Chen saw that there was suddenly a lot more news about him.

He knew that these media and self-media bloggers would definitely not help him attract traffic for free.

Before this, no media or self-media blogger had ever mentioned him.

This should be what Zhao Haitang said, that those bars worked together to attract traffic to him and tomorrow's performance.

He himself is naturally the biggest beneficiary.

Jiang Chen just wanted to take a closer look, but it was only one minute to ten o'clock. He could only quickly turn off his phone, turn on silent mode, turn off the lights and go to sleep!

No one and nothing can interrupt Jiang Chen's consecutive days of self-discipline, including Jiang Chen himself.

After a few days of self-discipline, Jiang Chen could feel that the rewards now were better than the first two days. If he continued to persevere, the rewards would get better and better.

There will be special rewards after a week, special rewards after a month, and even better prizes after a year.

The premise is that it cannot be interrupted.

If you fail to maintain self-discipline one day, you have to start counting the days again.

Jiang Chen was still hoping to get a special reward of ten or twenty years.

So you can't miss a day.

I slept soundly until 6:30 in the morning.

The first thing Jiang Chen did when he opened his eyes was not to check the self-discipline rewards, but to directly pick up his phone and open the DouYue account, wanting to see how effective the traffic was and how many people were following him.

Before I went to bed yesterday, more than 10,000 people had already followed it.

Now, Jiang Chen opened his account and found that the number of followers had risen to more than 50,000 again, an increase of more than 30,000 in one night.

Jiang Chen closed his DouYue account and logged into Penguin Music, his heart full of curiosity and anticipation.

How much sales can these new followers bring to your songs?

In the Internet industry, the ultimate goal of traffic generation is to realize it. The effectiveness of traffic generation and the potential of traffic generation targets all depend on how they are realized.

When Jiang Chen opened the backstage, he was almost dazzled by the lines of numbers, and surprise appeared in his eyes again.
