Start with a pop song

Chapter 165 First Rehearsal

The next morning.

When Song Dao woke up and saw the news, he felt a little amused, shocked and moved at the same time.

In fact, he knew that his approach was not without disadvantages.

For example, some people think that the way he uses this method to attract traffic is essentially no different from Jiang Ying.

It's nothing more than using the tactic of human sea and the power of the masses to forcibly pull up the data.

One is to throw money into it yourself.

To a rational person, his behavior is not that noble.

But under the premise of being full of freshness and variety.

Each of his live broadcasts is like a small concert, and the quality is even not inferior to those music variety shows.

No matter what the purpose is, these live broadcasts are full of sincerity!
At the same time, it can not only allow Feiyang Music to obtain a large amount of traffic, but also gain a huge amount of reputation for itself.

It can also cause serious injuries to the opponent!
Even if he is criticized for "there is no justice in war", at least his side can be considered as "self-defense counterattack".

As long as you don't over-consume the trust and enthusiasm of netizens and don't force PUA on anyone, there won't be a big problem.

Overall, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

With the timely termination of the Spring Festival Gala rehearsals, the impact of some negative voices can also be minimized.

We have been suppressing the opponent for several days, so even if we are overtaken for a while, it’s no big deal.

It's not just this one song.

The Queen has several songs on hand that are better than "Ask" but have not been released after recording.

There is a backlog in the system, and he can remember a lot of top songs!

As long as this method is proven to be effective, the "capital mentality" of spending money can be defeated through the human wave tactics.

Then there is nothing to be afraid of.

Unexpectedly, this group of netizens is really strong!
It was completely spontaneous, to support him and Lin Fei.

What made Song Dao most gratified was that although this group of people would also make sarcastic remarks about Jiang Ying and mock her for spending money to get on the charts,

But most of the speeches are relatively rational.

This is consistent with his usual impression on everyone.

What kind of idol you have, what kind of fans you have.

He is rational, calm, and emotionally stable. Those who like him are slowly approaching him without realizing it.

Occasionally there are those who are not mature enough, and they will be "educated" quickly.

"If you are not Xiao Heizi, then don't embarrass our Dog Brother. Dog Brother has always been upright and honest, so we should also support him openly."

"I am touched by the seriousness and dedication of Gou Ge these days. It is enough for everyone to support him and not involve others."

"We just need to let those people see that only the real good literature and art is what the masses like."

"Look at who Dog Brother hangs out with all day long? They are all true artists! And look at how humble he is towards them. Learn from them!"

"Spending money to get on the charts is not something that has happened just once or twice, it has always been like this, and the platform doesn't care. There is no need to say more. We just need to stay united and help Brother Gou!"

There are countless similar remarks.

……

It's about nine o'clock in the morning.

Ma Shen, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly posted a message on Shuibo.

"Brothers and sisters, my new song "It Doesn't Matter" has been released on music platforms such as Penguin Music and Yiwang Cloud. Welcome everyone to listen to it. While you are listening to the song, don't forget to check who wrote the lyrics and composed the song."

Soon, the Internet became lively.

"Fuck, when did Brother Gou write a song for Lao Ma?"

"Did Brother Gou really write this?"

"Shen's voice is perfect with this song."

"What a soulful song, worthy of being the most soulful work in Beijing. Perfection is impossible to achieve, so if it is broken, it will be broken. Brother Shen's soulful performance also gives the song new vitality!"

"See? If you take the initiative to make friends with me, I will never treat you unfairly!"

“Brother Shen really put a lot of effort into his interpretation of this song!”

"Besides writing songs for the Queen of Heaven, Qin Lang, it seems that Brother Gou has never written songs for anyone else, right? Old Ma, you've got Brother Gou's third blood!"

"Don't care? I really want to, but I really can't do it! I feel like crying."

It is a song of good quality in itself, and with the blessing of the now-popular Song Dao, the song quickly ranked among the top 20 on the charts within a few hours of its release.

And as the situation develops, the ranking is still climbing up little by little.

……

3pm.

Xiashi Studio Center.

When Ma Shen saw Song Dao coming with Lin Fei, he ran over directly.

No exaggeration.

It's the kind of thing that comes here at a jog, only to slide to one knee.

"Haha, Teacher Song, Teacher Lin, long time no see!"

Ma Shen took the initiative to come over and shook hands with Song Dao enthusiastically, then nodded to Lin Fei.

"Why did you suddenly release a song?" Song Dao asked with a smile.

"Haha, with you guys here, I won't be able to get first place even if I drag it out till the end of time. In that case, I might as well release it sooner. I kept it a secret from my fans before and got scolded for a long time."

Ma Shen said with a calm face and a smile.

The quality of this song is quite good. Before the rise of the Feiyang school, Ma Shen was confident that he could take the first place for two consecutive weeks.

But there are so many good songs nowadays.

Not only the Fei Yang faction, but even veteran divas like Jiang Ying and Shi Yuyan have returned to the battlefield.

As a singer who needs songs to maintain his popularity, Ma Shen feels there is no need to wait any longer.

Who cares what position he ranks on the charts? Even if he's in the top 20, he's still in the top 20 of the entire Xiayu music scene.

It’s already pretty awesome, right?

And now Teacher Song has too much traffic!
Now that it’s released, you can still get some benefits.

With this mentality, Ma Shen felt much more relaxed.

"What do you want to be perfect?"

"That's almost it!"

He has also come out of the shadow of his apprentice's betrayal.

I have been so busy with commercial performances recently.

Despite making huge profits, what Ma Shen was most grateful for deep down in his heart was not his own success.

But the young man in front of him who had been dissed by him!
Song Dao has been live streaming these days and he has never missed a show.

I even wanted to send a message to Song Dao several times: Dao Shen, can you come to my place so we can broadcast together?
However, after seeing Hong Jie, Chen Ting and Yin Hong appear in Song Dao's live broadcast room, he gave up the idea.

Even though he is very popular and has a high status, he will definitely be criticized for trying to gain popularity if he broadcasts live with Song Dao at this time.

He really doesn't care if it's someone else, he'll just do it.

But it was not the same for Teacher Song. A song called "It Doesn't Matter" made him deeply realize that this young man was simply a shining mountain of gold.

We have to maintain the relationship well.

"Teacher Song, we won't be doing a live broadcast tonight, right?" Ma Shen asked with a smile.

"It should not be broadcast anymore. It has been broadcast for several days in a row and everyone is tired of it." Song Dao said.

"How could I be annoyed? I look forward to watching your livestream every day!" Ma Shen said, "It's true. I'm not lying to you. Your livestream is so good that every night is like an online concert. With your current popularity, even if you hold dozens of offline concerts, no one will get tired of it!"

At this moment, several more celebrities came over, all with expressions of approval on their faces.

"Teacher Song's live broadcast is so exciting, there are new surprises every day!"

"Don't ask, asking means you're invincible! Hahaha!"

"I've almost developed a habit these past two days. Watching it every day is really addictive."

"I also drank alcohol while watching Teacher Song's live broadcast, and I gained two kilograms."

Song Dao greeted these people with a smile.

We did not refuse some people's request to add carrier pigeons.

These are all celebrity artists. Even if we don’t talk about cooperation with them, at least they won’t disturb him easily.

He and Lin Fei came here today and did not go to Zhou Qian's place.

It's enough to know that there is this relationship; there's no need to let people see it every time.

The first rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala mainly links various programs such as original songs and dances, classic operas, crosstalk and sketches.

For many programs, this is the first test. Some programs will definitely be cut due to reasons such as length, program effect, and matching degree.

Those with high quality may appear on the Lantern Festival Gala, but those with not so high quality... basically have no chance to appear on this year's Spring Festival Gala.

So many people are feeling a little nervous right now.

Afraid that his show would be taken away.

……

Zhao Qi watched from afar as his former master and his "mortal enemy" chatted and laughed happily together.

My heart is full of contempt.

"The old dog licks the young dog!"

"How shameless!"

Deep down in his heart, he was jealous of the Song Dao of today to a somewhat twisted degree.

Although he admitted that there was a gap between him and Song Dao, he still felt darkly that Song Dao's fame must have been fake!

Especially lately.

It's getting more and more outrageous.

Let’s not talk about songs like “The Motherland Will Not Forget” which are both popular and positive.

Can he compose rock songs?

How could a person without any passion create a song like "Shame"?

What's even more outrageous is that he was able to create a song like "Horse Racing" that was praised by many masters.

It's outrageous. It's outrageous to open the door!
He admitted that Song Dao was indeed quite amazing, both in terms of singing skills and his proficiency in playing various musical instruments.

But when it comes to creative ability, he doesn't believe it!
No one can be so comprehensive!

It must have been written for him by Shui Ji San Qian.

But there is one thing: Zhao Qi feels that Song Dao is definitely not the small-town youth as described on the Internet.

He must have some particularly powerful relatives.

Otherwise, why would so many big guys protect him so much?
Envy, jealousy, and even a little hatred.

Why can't it be me?
……

Shi Yuyan, Jiang Ying, Zhang Huan, Hou Tianwei and others were also paying attention to Song Dao at this moment.

Perhaps because the big guys haven't arrived yet, Song Dao seems a little "thin" at the moment.

But no one dared to underestimate this young man because of this.

Shi Yuyan and the others tacitly agreed not to mention the matter of ranking.

After spending tens of millions of dollars, Jiang Ying was still crushed. This must have been very hurtful to her.

After all, he is an old hand.

Jiang Ying's behavior at this moment was quite normal.

There is absolutely no sign of a mental breakdown at home.

She also put on full makeup to cover up her haggard face and dark circles under her eyes.

Among this group of people, only Zhang Huan was looking forward to what kind of performance Song would perform in this Spring Festival Gala.

The rehearsal is about to begin.

A group of people came in through the small door of the studio.

Zhou Qian, Yin Hong, Chu Peining, Fang Tianlong, Qin Lang, Xia Hong and others started looking around as soon as they came in.

Soon it fell to Lin Fei and Song Dao.

Come over smiling.

Song Dao instantly became the center of everyone's attention.

All the celebrities in the studio looked in his direction.

Song Dao glanced at Lin Fei and asked Ma Shen: "Together?"

Ma Shen waved his hands repeatedly, deciding not to follow a group of big shots like that and join in the fun.

After greeting everyone, Zhou Qian smiled and pulled his arm, saying to an old man who looked to be in his seventies, "Mr. Sheng, this is what I told you about, the best young singer-songwriter at the moment, the creator of "Camel Bells", "The Motherland Will Not Forget", and also the song "Horse Racing", Song Dao."

The old man looks graceful and elegant.

Although you can tell at first glance that she is not young, she has a very good temperament.

Zhou Qian introduced Song Dao and Lin Fei, "Brother, Fei'er, this is Mr. Sheng Lin."

Sheng Lin looked at Song Dao with a smile: "What a handsome boy!"

Song Dao took the initiative to shake hands: "Hello, Teacher Sheng."

Lin Fei stood beside him and shook hands with the old man: "I know you, Mr. Sheng. My mother and I both like to listen to your songs!"

The queen does not lie. She does know Sheng Lin and she really likes the works of this senior singer.

Sheng Lin smiled and shook hands with the two of them: "I am also a fan of yours. Xiaolin, I like your songs "Shanghai Beach" and "Lovesickness". You sing them so well!"

Looking at Song Dao: "I like Xiao Song's "Camel Bell" and "The Motherland Will Not Forget", especially the song "Motherland". For someone like me who lives abroad, it touches me deeply! Every time I listen to it, I can't help but burst into tears!"

Lin Fei and Song Dao were very humble.

Zhou Qian smiled and said: "It is our honor that the old man came back to participate in the Spring Festival Gala this time. You may not know that although the old man lives overseas, he has always helped us speak out in various fields over the years and has helped build many schools. He is a role model for overseas Chinese."

Sheng Lin waved his hand and said, "We are all descendants of Yan and Huang. It is our duty to do what we can for our motherland."

It can be seen that Brother Long, Sister Hong, Yin Hong and others also respect this old gentleman very much.

Yin Hong smiled and said to Song Dao: "When the old man was young, he was as handsome as you. He was a top star of that era, famous all over the country, and everyone knew him!"

Brother Long said: "When I was a kid, Teacher Sheng was the most popular Mandarin singer in Hong Kong, no doubt about it!"

If Xie Xiaofeng is a legend in the Xiayu music scene, then the old man Sheng Lin in front of him is also a figure of that level.

It’s just that his family moved overseas many years ago, so he is considered an overseas Chinese.

He has had excellent living conditions since childhood and is a real rich boy.

He had been doing charity work before he became famous, and provided great help to the then underdeveloped Xia State in various fields.

After becoming famous, he quickly retired.

He went to teach at the world's top music school.

Over the years, many musicians from the Xia country have received guidance and help from the old man when they went to study abroad.

Therefore, Sheng Lin’s identity is not just a singer who was once popular all over the country.

It also has a high status at the national level.

Many older celebrities and artists present were a little surprised by his appearance.

I can't help but sigh that Zhou Qian is really amazing.

Even this person could be invited out.

Mr. Sheng himself is very humble, has a young mentality, and speaks in a witty and humorous way.

Soon I was having a very happy chat with Song Dao and Lin Fei.

"Xiao Song, the patriotic songs you created are very good. I have also prepared a song about our overseas Chinese patriotism. Let's add each other as friends. I will send it to you later. Please help me correct it and give me some suggestions."

Song Dao quickly said modestly: "I don't deserve your criticism. I am a young man with limited knowledge and I need your guidance."

Although he is an overseas Chinese, Mr. Sheng speaks standard Xia language Mandarin fluently.

If you don’t know him, you might not even believe that he has been living in a foreign country for many years.

After the two of them added each other as friends, Mr. Sheng immediately sent Song Dao the song he was going to sing on the Spring Festival Gala.

Song Dao glanced at the lyrics.

[On the other side of the world, the moonlight shines in front of the window]

[The thoughts in my heart spread like a tide]

[The mountains and rivers of my hometown often appear in my dreams]

[That familiar land is my eternal concern]

【…】

Looking at the melody again, it feels pretty good.

Now that he has the experience of a master musician, he can indeed give some suggestions on arranging music.

But now the rehearsal has already begun.

He said hello to Mr. Sheng and wanted to sit in the back row.

Then he was pulled back by Chu Peining.

"Why are you always running? Just sit here!"
