How did this star become more popular after his scandal?

Chapter 174 The cool night is like a river of longing for you
Jiang Yu’s trip to his alma mater has ended. It was a very meaningful journey and a very meaningful activity.

The final running event was particularly moving for students, teachers, and school leaders. Watching the children run as hard as they could toward the finish line touched many people deeply.

Especially this special running race, it has left a seed in the hearts of these students today, and brought them the most profound memories and lessons at this age.

Some people aren't born to start from the same starting line. Even classmates you spend every day with may already be far ahead of you. But until you reach the finish line, no one knows the outcome. Even if you're behind now, as long as it's not the end, you still have a chance to surpass them and reach the finish line of victory!

This morning, for the students, it was a very happy and exciting time to see their favorite stars on TV. But this morning, they also had a very touching experience.

After Jiang Yu and the others finished, they had dinner with the program crew and school leaders.

However, when Jiang Yu and his friends were having lunch, Jiang Yu, no, it should be said that Jiang Yu and Yang Xue, were the hot searches on the Internet again.

"Three Lives, Three Worlds" officially announced the release date!

"Yang Xue's new drama Three Lives, Three World ...

"Jiang Yu Yang Xue!"

"Jiang Yu wrote the theme song for Yang Xue's new drama!"

"Jiang Yu and Yang Xue sing a new song together!"

"Yang Xue's new song is a flop!"

……

At noon, Three Lives, Three Worlds and Mango TV finally officially announced that Yang Xue’s new drama, Three Lives, Three Worlds, which fans have been looking forward to since the filming, will be broadcast on Mango TV on November 22.

As soon as this news came out, it instantly became a hot topic. Yang Xue's fans who had been waiting for a long time were very excited. In addition, the male lead is also a popular first-line actor in the circle, Zhang Hao, so "Three Lives, Three Worlds" has attracted extremely high attention.

Originally, the official announcement of this drama was nothing special, and everyone was looking forward to the new drama being broadcast on the 22nd. However, not long after the new drama was officially announced, the program team and Yang Xue’s Weibo posted a message, and the theme song of "Three Lives, Three Worlds" was also online at the same time.

As for the theme song of the new drama, it was released in advance. Everyone knows that it must be to warm up the new drama in advance.

As a result, many fans went to see the new song, and wow, the theme song of Yang Xue’s new drama was actually written by Jiang Yu!
That’s nothing. The key point is that this theme song was not only written by Jiang Yu, but also sung by Jiang Yu and Yang Xue!

Before, it was Jiang Yu who wrote a song for Su Muwan, then it was Song Yuqing, and now it's the turn of actress Yang Xue. Wow, is Jiang Yu trying to reconcile with all his exes one by one?

Jiang Yu's recent incident of hitting Hu Tian has been a hot topic, garnering a lot of attention. Now, Jiang Yu is linked to Yang Xue, writing the theme song for her new drama and even singing a duet with her. This, coupled with their special relationship, has made people wonder.

And Jiang Yu isn't just involved with Yang Xue. They'd interacted a lot with Su Muwan before, and there were even rumors online about a possible reunion. Yesterday, Song Yuqing showed up again, and Jiang Yu wrote a song for her called "Love You," which went viral and delighted his male fans.

Today, movie queen Yang Xue is here again. Was this what the ex-girlfriends of these three big stars agreed upon?

"No? I hadn't even noticed that the theme song for Yang Xue's new drama was actually written by Jiang Yu, and it's a duet between Jiang Yu and Yang Xue!"

"Holy crap! What the hell is going on? Not to mention Su Muwan before, Song Yuqing just released the new song "Love You" that Jiang Yu wrote for her yesterday, and now Yang Xue is here again? Is this a showdown between exes?"

"It's possible. Look, Song Yuqing's new song was released yesterday. Logically, the theme song should be released two days before the new drama airs, or even at the same time. Yang Xue's new drama was just officially announced, and the theme song is already online. Although there are precedents for releasing theme songs in advance to promote new dramas, it seems to me that Yang Xue and Song Yuqing are competing with each other."

"Haha, I feel the same way. One in front and one behind, these exes can't stand each other."

"Damn Jiang Yu, my wife Xue'er, my sister Yuqing, my goddess Mu Wan, wuwuwu!"

"No, it's just this violent lunatic. What's so good about him? Why would Yang Xue and the others still contact him?"

"Yeah, after watching the video of him beating people, I feel that Jiang Yu is not a good person. Just like what Teacher Hu Tian said, he was born by a mother but not raised by her. He is a scumbag, a scumbag!"

……

The official release date for "Three Lives, Three Worlds" has been announced, and the theme song was released today. Everyone is discussing Jiang Yu and Yang Xue's duet, and the idea of ​​writing a theme song for Yang Xue's new drama. Everyone has a gossipy heart, but because of the previous incident where Jiang Yu beat Hu Tian, ​​many people still scolded Jiang Yu in the comment section.

While many people were discussing Yang Xue and Jiang Yu singing the theme song together, fans of the male lead Zhang Hao were a little dissatisfied.

"No? Who is the male lead in this drama? Jiang Yu? Isn't he just a songwriter? Why did the female lead Yang Xue sing the theme song, but our Zhang Hao can't?"

"That's right. The theme song would be best sung by the male and female protagonists together. Why let Jiang Yu sing it? Just because he wrote it? He's close to Yang Xue?"

"No, our Zhang Hao is the male lead. Why don't we let him sing the theme song?"

"Yeah, what's going on with the director? Could it be that Jiang Yu asked for it himself, wanting to get back together with Yang Xue? How disgusting! He relied on the theme song he wrote to ask to sing a duet with Yang Xue. Ugh!"

"I think so too. How could there be a theme song performance? The female lead performed it, but the male lead was not allowed to. It's obvious that this song was written by Jiang Yu. He's targeting our Zhang Hao!"

"He's a violent lunatic. He looks like a bad person. He's definitely targeting someone!"

"Tsk, I want to see how well this guy sings."

……

Zhang Hao was also a little sad when he saw the comments from fans. Although he was a little happy, he felt that these fans were causing trouble for him.

He was not very good at recording at that time, and he was aware of his own level. Although he was a little dissatisfied with the director for replacing him and letting Jiang Yu sing with Yang Xue, there was nothing he could do.

He is okay at acting, but he is really not good at singing.

Fans said Jiang Yu that he didn't think it was a big deal, but when he saw some fans talking about the director and the crew, Zhang Hao was so scared that he immediately asked his agent to contact the group leaders of the fan group and tell them not to talk nonsense.

It was fine to scold Jiang Yu, since he'd been scolded quite a bit lately. But scolding Director Yu and the crew would only bring trouble.

Meanwhile, Qianqian had also seen the online news and knew about actress Yang Xue's new drama. However, she didn't pay much attention to it. After looking at the release date, she just waited to see it when it was released.

But then, when Lin Qianqian saw that the theme song of Yang Xue's new drama was written by Jiang Yu, and was sung by Yang Xue and Jiang Yu, she suddenly became interested.

Jiang Yu's songs were definitely worth listening to. Lin Qianqian had also read the recent online controversy surrounding Jiang Yu's alleged assault, and all she could say was, "Well done." In her opinion, if someone insulted her mother like that, she wouldn't let them off easily. She would have to fight back, regardless of her status.

Lin Qianqian opened the music software. She often used Penguin Music. When she clicked on it, there was a recommendation for the theme song of Yang Xue's new drama.

"Liangliang..."

Looking at the title of the theme song that Jiang Yu wrote for Yang Xue's new drama, Lin Qianqian suddenly felt a little funny. Why does this name feel a bit unlucky?
The new drama hasn't even been released yet, but the theme song is called "Liangliang". What if it becomes really unpopular later?
However, with Yang Xue's popularity and appeal, even if her dramas perform poorly, they are still better than many. It can only be said that her dramas are the difference between big hits and popular dramas. The good ones are big hits, and the bad ones are basically popular dramas. No matter how bad they are, they are not that bad.

"Maybe the title of this song has another meaning, related to the plot of the TV series."

Lin Qianqian knew that Jiang Yu usually wouldn't come up with useless song titles, and this was the theme song of Yang Xue's new drama. The title was probably related to the plot of the TV series.

I clicked play and the prelude started.

Song title: Liangliang
Singer: Jiang Yu/Yang Xue
Lyricist: Jiang Yu

Composer: Jiang Yu..."

Listening to the prelude of "Liangliang" sung by Jiang Yu and Yang Xue, Lin Qianqian felt as if her eyes had brightened and she felt a little surprised.

“Ancient style songs!”

Although she had roughly guessed that Yang Xue's new drama was a fantasy drama, and the theme song should be an ancient style song, it is now confirmed.

With Jiang Yu’s previous song "Blue and White Porcelain" as a foundation, Lin Qianqian is very much looking forward to the ancient style songs written by Jiang Yu.

Listening to the prelude, the sounds of the flute and the piano, there was a sense of desolation. Lin Qianqian suddenly thought, could the plot of the new drama be more cruel?

Otherwise, why does this theme song sound so sad just by listening to the prelude?

As the prelude ended, Yang Xue's singing sounded in Lin Qianqian's ears.

"As the night gets cooler
Flowers fall into frost
You are looking in the distance
I have exhausted all my gazes and have not thought about you, so I find it hard to forget you..."

Listening to Yang Xue's singing, Lin Qianqian felt her eyes brighten.

"Yang Xue's singing skills are surprisingly good."

As a veteran actress, Lin Qianqian thought Yang Xue's singing was quite good. If she remembered correctly, Yang Xue had released a song before, but it received only average reviews. After that, she focused entirely on acting. It seemed that Yang Xue's basic skills were still very solid.

When Yang Xue finished singing, the lyrics showed that it was time for Jiang Yu's male part.

"The peach blossoms are cool
How did you give up in your previous life?

This sea of ​​​​heart
Still pretending to be indifferent and not far-fetched
It’s all an illusion…”

Listening to Jiang Yu's singing, he was still so steady, and Lin Qianqian suddenly felt that the duet between Jiang Yu and Yang Xue seemed really good.

This song in particular has a music video online right now. It contains some promotional clips from TV dramas and movies, interspersed with scenes from when Jiang Yu and Yang Xue recorded the song. Lin Qianqian watched the music video and listened to the song. The edited movie clips were very attractive, and Yang Xue's ancient costume was also very beautiful. But the scene of Jiang Yu and Yang Xue recording the song, and the scene of the two singing affectionately from time to time, flashed by in the music video. For a moment, Lin Qianqian wondered if it would be better if Jiang Yu played the male lead in this drama?
Jiang Yu is handsome, has good manners and temperament, and he must look good in ancient costume.

"The cool night turns my thoughts into a river for you
Turning into spring mud to protect me

The fleeting years brush against the sleeves of my lover

Pieces of fragrant flowers flow into the water

Cool and cool weather

Falling into the mortal world hurts me

Life tribulation is easy to overcome, but love tribulation is difficult
The depreciated heart still has some hatred from the previous life
A few more points
The hatred from the previous life..."

"Liangliang", the theme song written by Jiang Yu for Yang Xue's drama "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms", is the ending song of the TV series "Eternal Love". It was written by Liu Chang, composed by Tan Xuan, and sung by Zhang Bichen and Yang Zongwei. It was included in the album "Eternal Love Original Soundtrack" released on February 18, 2017.

The lyrics for "Liangliang" were specifically written by Liu Chang for the historical fantasy drama "Eternal Love." Composed by music producer Tan Xuan, the song was a collaborative effort, with vocals by Zhang Bichen and Yang Zongwei. Before composing the song, Liu Chang read the original novel several times. Because the drama is filled with heart-breaking tribulations yet boasts a heartwarming ending, Liu Chang aimed to convey a sense of warmth amidst the chill.

At that time, Yang Xue and Director Yu invited him to compose the theme song for the new drama "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms". After reading the script, he felt that this drama was very similar to "Eternal Love". After reading the outline of the script, he felt that the song "Liang Liang" was very suitable as the theme song.

As expected, after it was finished, Director Yu and the others were very satisfied.

At this moment, Lin Qianqian was listening to the song "Liangliang" sung by Jiang Yu and Yang Xue, and felt a little intoxicated. It was another very nice and high-quality ancient style song.

Ever since hearing Jiang Yu's previous song, "Blue and White Porcelain," Lin Qianqian's standards for this type of ancient-style music have become much higher. Although Jiang Yu sparked a wave of ancient-style music, many songs have emerged, but the quality varies greatly. Compared to Jiang Yu's "Blue and White Porcelain," it's truly far inferior.

This also means that Lin Qianqian hasn't heard any high-quality ancient style songs for a long time since "Blue and White Porcelain".

But today, she thinks the theme song of Yang Xue’s new drama, "Liangliang", is very good.

After listening to Jiang Yu and Yang Xue's song "Liang Liang," Lin Qianqian still felt a sense of longing. She watched the music video and then browsed the official promotional clips released online. Suddenly, she was looking forward to Yang Xue's new drama, "Three Lives, Three Worlds."

"The song 'Liangliang' has beautiful lyrics and a melodious, stirring melody. The lyrics are meticulously crafted, and the melancholy expressed in the melody and lyrics blends with the voices of Jiang Yu and Yang Xue, using their voices to unravel the three-life entanglement of the hero and heroine. The line 'Liangliang three lives and three worlds suddenly seem like a dream' expresses the helplessness and emotion of the long years. The collision of the two voices, masculine and delicate, and affectionate and vicissitudes of life, seems to have already brought the audience into that extraordinary love..."

"Furthermore, Jiang Yu's pure and delicate voice seems to convey the male protagonist's unwavering love for one person, spanning three lifetimes. Yang Xue tenderly sings the female protagonist's feelings about this destined and astonishing love, from longing, heartbreak, to unrepentant feelings..."

Lin Qianqian watched some promotional clips of "Three Lives, Three Worlds" and some plot explanations on the Internet, and analyzed the theme song "Liangliang" sung by Jiang Yu and Yang Xue.

and……

Lin Qianqian savored the song "Liangliang" written by Jiang Yu carefully: "Jiang Yu used the technique of introduction, development, turn and conclusion in this song."

"The first part of the lyrics, 'As the night gets cooler, it's all an illusion,' and this part, 'My hair was once white and I was in the water,' is the beginning and the end of the song."

"From an emotional perspective, both sections are "repressed" before the climax, as if they are narrating a story or a love story in a low voice, but every sentence pierces the heart like a needle. The Chinese people pay the most attention to the word "meaning". Whether it is the meaning of painting or the meaning of drama, the most important thing is the word "virtuality". "Meaning" is an aesthetic term. In other words, it is like "beauty", which is difficult to grasp. The stage in the play does not need to be extremely luxurious. Just a table and a chair can complete the interpretation of the entire plot. Almost all objects are replaced by "virtuality" instead of "real". The audience is not attracted by the stage setting, but the actors' sincere performance is the most touching..."

"From a melody perspective, the progression of semitones is even more captivating. Semitone intervals are considered dissonant in music, so they evoke a sense of panic and annoyance in the listener. Coupled with the melody's low, melancholic quality, it truly creates a slight sense of unease. This is precisely the composer's intention, laying the foundation for the climax that follows. Speaking of the singers, Jiang Yu and Yang Xue, their slightly hoarse voices and their powerful, powerful enunciation further enhance the expression and communication of this piece. Had someone with a sweet, delicate voice sung this song, the effect would have been greatly diminished..."

Lin Qianqian carefully analyzed the song "Liangliang" sung by Jiang Yu and Yang Xue. This song contained a lot of meaning. In particular, this song, as the theme song of the TV series "Three Lives Fate", contained a lot of emotional expression from the male and female protagonists of the TV series.

Now Lin Qianqian is only expressing based on her own understanding. Some things will only become clear after the TV series is broadcast and watched.

But now, Lin Qianqian thinks that Jiang Yu and Yang Xue's song "Liangliang" is very good. Judging from the current ranking of the new song list, this song has only been online for half an hour and it has already rushed to the fourth place on the new song list.

The third one is Song Yuqing’s new song "Love You" yesterday. As for the first two, they are Jiang Yu and Su Muwan’s previous songs, one is "Boundless Sea and Sky" and the other is "Like You".

Lin Qianqian looked at the current situation of the new song chart, and her expression suddenly became a little playful, with a hint of gossip in her eyes.

This situation...

Looking at the songwriters, all the songs were written by Jiang Yu, and...

Now the top four of the new song chart are all Jiang Yu and his ex-girlfriends. Why does this scene feel a bit like Jiang Yu bringing his ex-girlfriends to the new song chart for team building and to dominate the chart?
The key point is that in the current situation, Jiang Yu is in the first place, and below, the three ex-girlfriends are competing, all wanting to rush to the front and pull others down.

Anyway, judging from the fact that Song Yuqing and Yang Xue released new songs one after another, it is obvious that they are trying to compete with each other.

"Is this...jealousy?"

Lin Qianqian was a little surprised. These three were goddesses in the hearts of countless men in the country. Now they were jealous of Jiang Yu?
Well, Lin Qianqian suddenly felt that she had underestimated Jiang Yu’s charm.

At this moment, everyone on the Internet is discussing the new song "Liangliang" sung by Jiang Yu and Yang Xue.

"I just listened to it, and it seems pretty good."

"Indeed, I think it sounds great. Jiang Yu and Yang Xue's duet is perfect."

"This is the first time I've heard Yang Xue sing. She's really nice. I hope she can release her own songs in the future, haha."

"Those who ask why Zhang Hao doesn't sing? Haha, don't you see your Zhang Hao singing on some shows? Is that listenable?"

"Yes, Zhang Hao's acting is OK, but I really don't want to say much about his singing."

"Ahhh! I've seen the MV and the promotional clips, and I'm already looking forward to Three Lives!"

……

At this moment, although many people like the song "Liangliang", because of the recent incident involving Jiang Yu beating someone, no matter what he does, there will be people criticizing him.

"Really? You guys still listen to the songs of this violent lunatic and scumbag?"

"Exactly. I'm disgusted by Jiang Yu. He hits people all the time. If I don't listen to his songs, will he hit me too?"

"Trash, this kind of scum, uneducated people shouldn't be in the entertainment industry."

"Let me be fair. It's wrong for Teacher Hu Tian to curse, but it's even more wrong for you, Jiang Yu, to hit him. Besides, Teacher Hu Tian hasn't held you accountable yet. Jiang Yu, come out and apologize to Teacher Hu Tian, ​​and Teacher Hu also apologizes for cursing. Isn't this matter resolved soon? Do you have to make such a big fuss and have so many people scold you before you're satisfied?"

"Yeah, Jiang Yu, you just apologize, and then Hu Tian apologizes, and this matter will be over. You have to be so arrogant, and now there are so many people scolding you."

"Tsk, he just thinks he did nothing wrong, that Hu Tian was wrong to curse people, and that he can just beat people up."

"Really? Why is Jiang Yu so arrogant? Hu Tian just cursed at me, but hitting him is even worse. Just apologize to each other and that's it."

……

There's a lot of controversy online about Jiang Yu, but it hasn't affected the popularity of the song "Liang Liang." In fact, with the release of the theme song today, the popularity of the theme song has skyrocketed, and the popularity of the drama "Three Lives, Three Worlds" has also risen.

Mango TV, on Mango Video, opened pre-orders after the official release date was announced today. Initially, the number of pre-orders was only around one million. However, after the theme song became popular, the number of pre-orders for the new drama skyrocketed.
