Huayu: Traffic is king

Chapter 101 Shura Field? !

Gu Jingyi's new album topped both the Penguin Music Bestseller Chart and the NetEase Cloud Music Chart!

["Like the Wind" topped the Soaring Chart, Daily Chart, and Weekly Chart simultaneously!]

[48 million RMB in sales within 1.5 hours of launch! Breaking new records in the domestic entertainment industry and topping the best-selling charts!]

[Net Depression Cloud suddenly reached one million comments in 24 hours, the highest level of interaction since the establishment of "Cloud Village"! Triggering the "Golden Legend" special effect certification!]

[24 million RMB in sales within 1.5 hours of launch! Breaking new records in the domestic entertainment industry and topping the best-selling charts!]

ITnues topped the charts in 16 countries (Japan, South Korea, Thailand, Singapore, and Malaysia), breaking Chris's record of 12. It also entered the B-Chart's global "Top 200" albums ranking 76th, becoming the first Chinese artist to achieve this feat.

watt!
For a moment, countless people were shocked by this result and were speechless.

The topic #顾璟颐小璟提音星力銷銷# directly ranked first on Weibo’s hot search list!

The suffix is ​​not the regular "hot", but a "explosive" that is red to black!
Is this something unique to the Chinese entertainment industry? Gu Jingyi has already made it onto the European and American charts without even having debuted in K-pop.

Before this, whether it was Chris Wu, Lu Han, or Wang Jiaer, they had all debuted in South Korean groups and radiated the world with the influence of K-pop.

Only Gu Jingyi returned to China before forming a group.

The allure of the "white moonlight of talent shows" is so terrifying that even after Wanna One debuted, they achieved remarkable success in South Korea. Less than half a year after their debut, they won the grand prizes at the three major award ceremonies.

Whenever there is any movement on Gu Jingyi's side, he can easily become a hot topic in South Korea and trend on INS.

Every time the talent show season comes, someone will make Gu Jingyi's name a hot trend.

South Korean fans are always paying close attention to Gu Jingyi. The show "Idol Producer" he participated in in China was also transferred to South Korea with subtitles by enthusiastic fans a long time ago.

He is indeed the most appealing to the admiration of strong men. "Idol Producer" has made a small splash in South Korea. Some Korean netizens who love to watch handsome men are not even that interested in "PD48" and just watch "Idol Producer" every day.

After the addition of "A Little Thing Called First Love" and "Idol Producer", Gu Jingyi's official fan club in South Korea has about 10 registered users.

Don't underestimate this statistic; in South Korea, all official fan clubs require registration fees. These fans are willing to invest real money in supporting Gu Jingyi's work. South Korean fans also contributed approximately 15% of the sales of his mini-album "Like the Wind."

Liu Haoyu really took Gu Jingyi's words to heart and started "overseas carpooling." He assembled Gu Jingyi's mini albums and then shipped them all at once.

She probably only took 10% of the profits. Although the profit was not much, it alleviated the embarrassing situation of having no income while training with Zhang Yimou for her movie debut.

"Sister Yang, the physical education class is about to begin."

The actress who was filming with her pulled her to go to class. Liu Haoyu just opened the phone case to admire Gu Jingyi's To-signed Polaroid.

I was so frightened by her shout that I almost fell down.

"What is this?"

The actress in the same group looked down and saw a Polaroid photo of Gu Jingyi wearing the final costume and black and gold earphones, standing on the stage with his head tilted back and singing "Starry Sea". The most rare thing was that there was a "To" signature on it.

"Wow, you're so lucky! This can only be won by those who bought Gu Jingyi's deluxe album. There are only 10 copies released in total, and you are one of the lucky ."

She took Liu Haoyu's arm in a very familiar manner, "Yue sister, are you selling this To-sign Polaroid? I have a niece who really likes Gu Jingyi. How about selling it to me for 8? The little girl pesters her father every day, clamoring to win the To-sign Polaroid. I've spent tens of thousands on albums alone, and still can't get one. The odds are really touching. Otherwise, why do they say that Huace will cut leeks..."

Liu Haoyu suddenly felt uncomfortable. She quickly put the Polaroid signature back into the phone case. Holding it tightly in her hand, she glanced at the actress in a daze.

She moved her lips slightly, and was about to start a fight, but she saw someone from Lao Mouzi's team coming over, and she quickly withdrew the words that were about to come out.

"Ah," Liu Haowei covered her mouth. Her small face, the size of a palm, was dominated by her facial features, leaving little white space. This also made her eyes more lively. "How should I put it? If you knew, you would think I'm lucky."

She glanced at the actress with a hint of smugness.

[Ask quickly, how can you show off without asking me?]
The villain in Liu Haoyue's heart was screaming like a crazy marmot, but his face remained calm.

"Ah," the actress said, "You are really lucky to have won Gu Jingyi's signed Polaroid among so many albums."

Liu Haoyi raised his little face and said with a bit of pride, "No, this is the one I signed for me when I was the queen of the finals that night. I went backstage and Gu Jingyi signed it for me personally."

"What? You can actually go backstage!" The actress opened her mouth wide.

"Otherwise, why do you say I'm lucky?" Liu Haoyu said happily, his eyebrows curved. "I met a fellow supporter, she is Gu Jingyi's relative. She took me backstage, and I have the photo and the signed Polaroid~"

The actress rolled her eyes and said, "Sister, who would ask you so many questions?"

"The physical education teacher is already in the classroom, are you two going to go?"

The staff member came over wearing a sign.

"Okay, I'll be there right away."

The actress quickly retracted her eye roll and forced a somewhat stiff smile.

On the other hand, Di Lieba also played with her mobile phone during the break on the set.

Even people in the circle who don’t know Gu Jingyi will pay attention to his new album, not to mention Dilraba Dilmurat, who has a close relationship with him.

The weather in Beijing was hot in mid-April. As soon as Di Lieba sat down, her assistant gave her a small fan and a sun hat.

After she took it, she turned on Q Music immediately.

The first screen is Q Music reporting the battle, "Gu Jingyi's new album 'Like the Wind' sold 427 million copies within one hour of its release. Sales exceeded 5000 million, setting a new record for digital album sales."

"Gu Jingyi's new album was released in just three minutes, achieving the legendary gold record achievement. Breaking history with the shortest time."

Dilireba narrowed her eyes and held the phone in front of her eyes to take a look.

"Gu Jingyi's new album achieved a Hall of Fame gold record within three minutes of release..."

Exactly the same, it looks right.

"Sister, what are you looking at? Aren't you wearing contact lenses today?"

The young assistant was a little confused, and Di Lieba was still a little dazed.

She pinched the assistant's arm and said, "Ah, it hurts."

"That seems to be true. I didn't expect Gu Jingyi's new album to be so amazing."

Dilireba murmured that this was not an illusion.

"Sister, why are you pinching me~"

The young assistant pouted, feeling a little aggrieved.

"Of course it hurts to pinch yourself."

Dilireba curled up the corners of her mouth and smiled.

"Sister~"

The young assistant looked at her aggrievedly.

"Okay, I'll give you a work injury. Your salary will be doubled this month, as will your bonus."

Di Lieba was in a good mood and began to search through her past records.

Last year, Lu Han, the top star whose relationship had not yet been exposed, released four mini albums with a total sales of only around 4300 million.

It’s not even enough to match Gu Jingyi’s sales in one hour!
Hua Chenyu’s cumulative sales over the past year were just over 10 million!
Chris, who has the same fashion resources and positioning as Gu Jingyi, only had album sales of over 2018 million in 700.

Qyin has released data showing that from the release of its first digital album at the end of 2014 to now, a full three and a half years, all its revenue added up to just over 4 million yuan.

Gu Jingyi achieved sales of 1.5 million within two days of its release.

Although this is the total sales of 5000 million including NetEase Cloud Music.

However, Q Music’s sales through a single channel reached RMB 1 million, accounting for a quarter of Q Music’s sales in the past three and a half years.

Just two days after its release, this year's "King of Digital Albums" must be Gu Jingyi.

He even broke a new record, becoming the best-selling digital album in the history of Chinese entertainment. Neither Jay Chou nor JJ Lin had as high sales as the digital version of his mini album.

It does sound magical, but in fact, since his debut, Gu Jingyi’s super topic has had more than one million sign-ins for two consecutive weeks.

He ranks first on Weibo's super topic and is a well-deserved top-tier star.

Not only did it sell very well, but music critics also praised Gu Jingyi's mini album highly.

Renowned musician Erdi called "Like the Wind" the best digital album of 2018. It was the biggest surprise of the year for the Chinese music scene. "Like the Wind" tells a story, comparing emotions to the wind.

"Like the wind, you rustle as you invade" describes the rapid passage of the peak, like a cold peak. Just a gentle touch can turn a person's mood into a partial downpour. The use of weather captures the entire mood of the song.

Especially in the MV, Gu Jingyi and Li Yitong meet in the bushes, shed tears and then separate. When the camera is filled with a lot of sad elements, the collision and eye contact between the two protagonists become more and more important.

Gu Jingyi is worthy of being the most talented actor of the new generation. His tear that is about to fall makes the story sublime again.

The song "Proof of Heartbeat" brings back memories of youthful school days, and the chorus, with its verse after verse, builds up the emotions even more intensely...]
The more Dilireba watched, the happier she became, especially when Erdi praised Gu Jingyi as a romantic and thoughtful person. This made her reaffirm her opinion and gave him a thumbs up.

This account is a small account registered with the assistant's mobile phone number. She only likes posts but does not post on Weibo.

After taking a quick look at the public opinion, she couldn't help but send a WeChat message to Gu Jingyi.

"Teacher Gu, your new album is amazing. Recently, whenever I open any music app, it's all your battle reports."

Gu Jingyi was still doing her makeup in the company when the message alert on her phone rang.

He will be interviewed by Q Music at Huace this afternoon. This is also Gu Jingyi's first interview after becoming the music recommendation officer of Q Music.

The message notification tone he set for Dilraba was different from that for others, so naturally he opened WeChat when the notification tone sounded.

Di Lieba has already launched an emoticon package there, waiting for Gu Jingyi to come online.

"Teacher Reba, you're too kind. How come you have time to message me at this hour? Is she done filming? Oh, I only deserve to receive messages from Teacher Reba at this time."

Gu Jingyi raised his finger and the message was sent out.

On the other side, Di Lieba had a smile in her eyes, but her smile disappeared immediately after she saw Gu Jingyi looked a little "wronged" in the second half.

She bit her soft lips, her heart in turmoil. She no longer cared about her original motivation for sending the message and started typing.

"How can I have time to message you after the show~"

"You've been stuck in the recording studio all day lately, and Huace has been sending you off to various endorsement campaigns. I was worried that when I sent you a message, you'd be sleeping in the nanny car, disturbing your rest."

"Gu Jingyi, why didn't you invite me to your MV? Oh, really."

Messages came one after another, and Gu Jingyi had already seen them. He didn't plan to reply immediately, so he left them alone for a while.

Girls are very emotionally sensitive. It’s not okay to always go along with them, nor is it okay to always go against them. They need to be able to micro-manage like him.

Sure enough, after seeing that Gu Jingyi didn't reply, Dilireba panicked and started typing.

"Of course I'm not blaming you. I just think you should find someone more suitable to star in the MV for the title song of your first album. Not to mention who's more suitable, but at least someone with the right popularity."

"Most importantly, I want to be a part of your album. This is your first album, and if I participate, you'll think of me more when you sing this song." "Hey, am I a little greedy?"

After Di Lieba posted it, she read it again and immediately withdrew it.

She was crazy, she was absolutely crazy. How could she show weakness like this? She was a top female star and the most popular girl born in the 90s.

[The other party withdrew a message]
Gu Jingyi deliberately waited for her to withdraw the last two messages before starting to reply.

[I see, Reba-sensei thought I was someone who valued popularity.]
"Ah", on the set, Di Lieba suddenly screamed and put her phone heavily on the table in annoyance.

Noticing the gazes turning towards her, she smiled sheepishly again.

"Sister, what's wrong?"

The assistant came over in a somewhat servile manner and looked at Di Lieba eagerly.

"I'm telling you, just now he..."

After half of the conversation, Dilireba stopped talking. She glanced at the assistant and said with some disappointment: "Forget it, you single dog won't understand even if I tell you."

Di Lieba looked a little listless, and the teardrop mole under her eye suddenly dimmed for a moment.

[? ? ? ]
The little assistant who was "attacked by ginseng" was left confused. She really didn't know what she had said wrong.

"Like the wind, you descend close to the clouds. You roll up..."

Gu Jingyi's singing voice came through the speaker of the mobile phone, carrying with it a complex emotion of sadness and unattainable desire.

Dilireba watched the MV, where Li Yitong stood in the bushes and looked at Gu Jingyi. Tears fell from her eyes, and her eyes were full of sadness.

Suddenly I felt even more aggrieved. Why wasn't she the heroine of this MV?
Obviously, she was...she was the one who came first.

Why do latecomers get the upper hand?

When Di Lieba saw the comments in the MV praising Gu Jingyi and Li Yitong for their couple feeling, she blocked them.

How should she tell Gu Jingyi? If she showed her feelings directly during the ambiguous stage, she would definitely lose.

But wasn't Gu Jingyi a little angry just now? He said that he wasn't someone who cared about popularity.

Do you think that when she said behind Li Yitong's back that she was not suitable, she was referring to her popularity?
What should I do? Should I explain? I should explain better, otherwise she will seem petty.

But she is 6 years older than Gu Jingyi. Doesn't this make her feel like she's being led around by a younger brother? If Sister Mi knew about this, she'd be laughing for a year, right?

Di Lieba held the mobile phone, with an expression on her face that was sometimes happy and sometimes depressed.

She looked completely in love, like a girl of seventeen or eighteen.

Although she debuted early, she had little experience in relationships. She was quickly led away by Gu Jingyi, and her heart was lost in desperation.

Gu Jingyi did not reply to the message. He was currently being interviewed by Qyin.

He sat in the waiting room, the sunlight sneaking in through the window cracks. It then extended a little bit along the grain of the floor, and playfully jumped onto Gu Jingyi's face.

The mottled sunlight fell unevenly on Gu Jingyi's face, and the interlaced light added a sense of mystery.

The reporter who was interviewing him turned on his recorder and radio, and followed the photographer in.

After a brief greeting, she looked away with a burning blush on her cheeks.

Although he has been in this profession for a long time, Gu Jingyi is the first man who allows her to "chase stars at public expense".

Following the prompt of "Let's begin", Gu Jingyi, who was sitting on the sofa, also gave his opening remarks.

"Hello everyone on Q Music, I'm Gu Jingyi, the new Q Music promoter."

After introducing myself, questions popped up one after another.

They are all based on the script and are not sharp.

"Gu Jingyi, what do you think of the new album breaking a new record in the domestic entertainment industry? Its sales not only crushed a number of its predecessors in terms of traffic, but also surpassed Zhou Lin, Wang Tao?"

Gu Jingyi wore a bright smile, "Zhou Lin and Wang Tao were my idols when I was little, and I've always listened to their songs. They are symbols of an era, and shouldn't be judged solely by sales."

"I can't achieve this without the support of my fans. It's because of the support of every one of them that I can achieve this."

A standard humble answer, no one can find fault with it.

"Gu Jingyi, did you encounter any interesting things while making the album?"

“Yes, when I was recording…”

After asking a series of safety questions, the host changed the subject.

She looked at Gu Jingyi and read out the last question in the script.

"Gu Jingyi, what do you think about the lyrics of your new album being said to be empty and devoid of meaning?"

This controversy was also the result of public opinion deliberately led by the rivals as the performance of the new album "Like the Wind" continued to rise.

What can be done? Please, Gu Jingyi is only 2018 years old, and it is . Can we really let -year-old Gu Jingyi sing Eason Chen's "When the Grapes Ripe", "Just Want Love", Lin Junjie's "Exchange the Rest of Our Lives", "Write the Story as Us"?

His lyrics are advanced, but they are not suitable for his age group.

He is only nineteen years old, and it feels subtly out of place when he sings in such an old-fashioned way from the beginning.

When Lin Zhiying was this age, he was still singing "The Rainy Season of Seventeen".

When Jay Chou was in his early twenties, he was still singing "Sunny Day", "Starry Sky" and "Lovely Woman".

The two have one thing in common: at this age, they sing songs that are most suitable for the theme of youth.

It's impossible for Gu Jingyi to forcibly remove "Zhou Lin Wang Tao" just to release a song, right?

Teacher Li Ronghao's song "Young and Promising" has nothing to do with Gu Jingyi's experience no matter how you listen to it.

Even if it involves his obscure days, although it can be related. But the lyrics repeatedly mention, "When I describe the beautiful future with you, your eyes often turn red. A bowl of hot porridge, you drink half and take it away"

Are you sure you're not hurting your fans by singing this? Top stars' fans are all jealous.

The reason why most girlfriend fans like Gu Jingyi is to satisfy their "boyfriend fantasy".

After singing "Young and Promising", are you sure that fans will not dig into Gu Jingyi's previous love history when he was in South Korea?

Of course Gu Jingyi had dated in South Korea. He not only dated Kim Ji-soo but also Kim Ji-won.

They both have one thing in common: they are beautiful and older sisters.

After terminating his contract with YG, he cut off contact with Kim Ji-soo out of a little self-respect.

The other party was also busy with his schedule at the time. He was a little confused at first but gradually got over it.

He met Kim Ji-won while working at a convenience store in 2016, and their relationship was like "a beautiful sister who often treated me to dinner."

This sister's appearance is impeccable, delicate and childish. When she walks with Gu Jingyi, you can't tell that they are in a "sister-brother relationship" at all.

As for actors, they don’t live under the watchful eyes of sasaeng fans and paparazzi like idols do.

When Gu Jingyi was in love with her, in addition to the most common "car dates" among celebrities, they also often traveled.

Don’t think that Korean actors don’t fall in love. A South Korean host once criticized the tradition of “D agency exposing couples at the beginning of the year”.

"Ah Yixi, I suggest that all media outlets should just expose all idols in love at the same time."

There are no secrets in the circle. Everyone in the circle knows who is dating and who has broken up.

Everyone abides by industry rules and does not make random leaks.

Just look at what happened with Kim Soo Hyun. Some people were talking about it in 2020, but we’ll know when it’s exposed in 2025.

In his previous life, Gu Jingyi was always wandering between Kim Ji-won and Kim Ji-soo, and he was never a content person.

Even though I'm back this time, I don't intend to let our fate come to an abrupt end.

Xiao Han is too messy. How could he bear to let the sisters he had sex with leave his protection?
The international singer's path is inevitable. After establishing her position in the industry with this year's mini album, she will release a full-length album at the end of the year to transition to a more international career. By the end of 19, Gu Jingyi will be able to test the waters of the European and American markets.

South Korea is used to worshipping foreign things, and the number one male solo artist has always been Justin Bieber.

Gu Jingyi felt that he could definitely use the good songs of Justin Bieber, Mond, and Boss Huang to stay at the forefront of the music scene.

It just so happened that "Milk Foam Sen" disbanded at that time, so Gu Jingyi had every opportunity to fully expand his range of talents.

"Jingyi, come back to your senses."

Noticing that Gu Jingyi was a little absent-minded, the young reporter waved his hand in front of him.

"I think lyrics should serve the melody. A blind pursuit of connotation defeats the purpose in the first place. I'm not a poet, so why would I bother with so much rhyme? Regarding lyrics, I can only say that they will improve as my experience grows."

Gu Jingyi smiled on his face, but he was also smiling in his heart.

If Brother Jie Lun could write “I have trained my chest muscles, why do you still want to rely on me”, what about him, a young top star who has just emerged?

After finishing the interview, Gu Jingyi shot a few more materials in collaboration with Qyin.

These will appear as opening screen posters and ground advertisements, giving Gu Jingyi a lot of publicity.

After seeing off the Qyin interview team, Gu Jingyi slowly picked up his phone and started messaging the girls.

He knew that Dilraba Dilmurat had a strong liking for him, but at this time Gu Jingyi did not intend to confirm the relationship so quickly.

There is only one position for the main wife, so naturally we have to choose the most suitable one from the best.

The girlfriend's position is like that of a brand ambassador, and he can relax the conditions a little.

After replying to some of the messages, Gu Jingyi received a call from Lin Ze.

"Jingyi, there's a celebration party tonight. The entire production team and staff will be there, so you must come."

"it is good"

Gu Jingyi agreed immediately. When he hung up the phone, he suddenly remembered what happened this morning.

Li Yitong asked him awkwardly if he had any plans for tonight.

I wonder if she will go?
If Li Yitong was also at the celebration party, even if the elder sister wanted to use the celebration party as an excuse to get him drunk, he would not resist at all and would half-heartedly play this game with Li Yitong.

The great Lu Xun once said, "The longer the ambiguity lasts, the harder it is to fall in love."

Gu Jingyi deeply agrees that love is nothing more than a fleeting product of hormones. The longer the ambiguity lasts, the harder it is to blossom and bear fruit.

If Li Yitong makes an invitation tonight, he will definitely go to find out.
