How did this star become more popular after his scandal?

Chapter 83: Overtaking
Nowadays, more and more people are using short videos. Although the program "The Voice of God" was very popular last night, not everyone will pay attention to it or even watch it.

Many people only know about this program by seeing some clips on the Internet.

This is also the reason why many people don’t know about Jiang Yu’s song “Twilight” which became popular on the Internet after the show was broadcast last night.

Now that Lin Qianqian has released this video, even those netizens who don’t pay much attention to the show have learned about this song.

"Wow! My wife's figure is getting better and better, but it's a pity that she didn't wear black stockings today."

"Dusk? Is this a song by Jiang Yu? I thought his previous songs Maple and Stranded were pretty good, but I haven't had the chance to listen to this song yet."

"I didn't watch the show last night either, but I saw online this morning that Jiang Yu seemed to have withdrawn from the competition. It seems he was suppressed by that Warner's young master, Chu Shaoyang."

"I just listened to Jiang Yu's Dusk, it's really good. Qianqian's wife's careful selection is really reliable."

"Actually, I think Jiang Yu is really talented and capable now. He's completely different from before. Anyway, I really enjoy listening to his songs now."

"Indeed, you can say he's a scumbag, unfaithful, and a playboy, but his songs are really good now. My wife and I both like to listen to them."

……

Nowadays, more and more people know about Jiang Yu's new song "Dusk". After listening to it, many people also think that Jiang Yu's song is indeed good. Gradually, Jiang Yu's Dusk became more and more popular. At first, it was spread wildly on the Internet, especially on short video platforms.

Some were broadcasting clips of Jiang Yu's performance on the show last night, while others simply used Jiang Yu's song "Dusk" as background music for their videos. Gradually, the performance of Jiang Yu's song improved. By the evening, Jiang Yu's "Dusk" had jumped from sixth place on the New Songs Chart to third place.

It even surpassed the songs released by other guests last night. Besides Jiang Yu, the highest-ranking new singles by Shen Hongyu and Zhao Tianming were only ranked seventh and eighth respectively.

It can be said that after the semi-finals of "The Voice of God" were broadcast last night, Jiang Yu not only won the first place in the semi-finals, but also surpassed the other guests with the single released today, leaving the others behind.

On Lu Xuan's side, after finishing today's announcements, he returned to the hotel to rest. As soon as he turned on his mobile phone, he saw this scene.

Moreover, Jiang Yu's song is currently very popular online, and the data is rising rapidly. When he checked during the day, it was not even in the top five. As a result, now, it has already rushed to the third place on the new song list.

In an instant, Lu Xuan felt a little panicked and quickly sent a message to his agent Li Qiang.

"Brother Qiang, look! Jiang Yu's new song 'Twilight' has actually reached number three on the new song chart. The stats are rising very quickly..."

Li Qiang also saw this situation when he came back, which made him frown slightly.

Jiang Yu is in such a bad situation, and his company doesn't support him or allocate any publicity resources to him. How come his new song can become such a hit?

Li Qiang checked and found that although Jiang Yu was rising rapidly, reaching the third place on the new song chart, he was still a long way behind Lu Xuan's new song. This made him feel relieved. He had said that if they poured so much resources and money into promotion, but still couldn't match Jiang Yu, a guy with a bad reputation and no company resources to promote his song, wouldn't it all be in vain?
"Fortunately, as long as this guy is suppressed by Lu Xuan, he still can't surpass the first place."

Li Qiang breathed a sigh of relief. Jiang Yu was so hot right now, breaking into the top three of the new song chart. But he felt that as long as they didn't surpass Lu Xuan, they would just have to hold onto the top spot. No matter how this guy tried to act, as long as they held onto the top spot, they wouldn't lose out.

Li Qiang replied to Lu Xuan, "Don't worry about him. Even if he gets to number three on the New Songs Chart, there's still a huge gap between him and you. The number one spot is definitely ours. He's a crippled artist with no company resources and promotion. Do you think he can surpass us?"

"I'll have the company step up the publicity. There are some popular shows and interviews coming up these next couple of days. You should go and participate and promote your songs."

When Lu Xuan heard what his agent Qiang said, he was relieved. As long as he couldn't be surpassed, it would be fine.

"Okay, I'll listen to Brother Qiang."

However, on the second day, at Fengtian Entertainment, Mr. Liu was in a good mood.

The company's business has been pretty good recently, and Lu Xuan's popularity has been steadily rising. Yesterday, his new song went online and directly took first place on the new song chart. Furthermore, Jiang Yu was also dealt with by Warner, which made him very happy.

"What... is going on? How did this guy suddenly come in second place?"

However, when Mr. Liu turned on the computer, he subconsciously wanted to check the status of Lu Xuan's new song. As a result, he saw that Jiang Yu's song "Twilight" had actually reached the second place on the new song list.

He remembered that when he went to check yesterday, Jiang Yu's song "Twilight" was only ranked sixth and not even in the top five of the new song list.

How come after just one night, this guy jumped straight to the second place on the new song chart?

This guy, even in this situation, how can his new song still be so popular?

Mr. Liu frowned slightly. This was not the result he wanted to see.

He immediately sent a message to the people below, and it was Li Qiang who sent the message.

"Did you see that Jiang Yu's new song has already reached number two? I don't care what methods you use, whether it's to increase publicity or hype, keep Lu Xuan's number one position on the new song chart. We absolutely cannot let Jiang Yu surpass him!"

Mr. Liu looked at Jiang Yu's song "Twilight", which was ranked behind Lu Xuan's new song, and looked at him eagerly, as if he was ready to surpass Lu Xuan at any time.

This was definitely not the result he wanted to see. He had invested so much resources in Lu Xuan, hoping to be promoted by Lu Xuan and become the next top star. If he was surpassed by Jiang Yu, a failed artist like Jiang Yu, and by the guy he had ruined himself, wouldn't it be a slap in his face?

Therefore, Mr. Liu would never allow such a thing to happen. Lu Xuan's first place position on the new song chart must be maintained. He didn't care whether Jiang Yu rushed to third or second, as long as he didn't surpass Lu Xuan and didn't let Jiang Yu take first place, he felt that it was acceptable.
