Entertainment: This top celebrity is really letting loose!

July.

"The song 'That Rainy Season' topped the new song charts within just one day of its release."

"That Rainy Season" has successfully entered the top ten of the hot songs chart, aiming for the top spot.

"Singer Liang Qi may be the biggest winner this time."

Wei Ran's new song "That Rainy Season" sparks heated discussion in the music scene.

"The award-winning composer is still as sharp as ever, and his new song has become a hit again."

"Wei Ran achieved a resounding victory in her first battle after joining Heyue Times, and she personally stated that she will strive to become the company's first top star."

"..."

The Era of Harmony.

"Hello, Teacher Wei Ran."

"Teacher Wei Ran, your new song is really amazing."

Good morning, Teacher Wei Ran.

"..."

As soon as Wei Ran entered the company gate, he was greeted with enthusiasm from everyone, from the company's department head and director to the cleaning lady. As the person in question, he smiled and waved to everyone.

When he arrived at his office door, he saw a middle-aged woman waiting with a young man, who was carrying an exquisitely packaged gift box.

"What brings you two to see me so early?"

The middle-aged woman greeted him with a smile, saying, "Liang Qi insisted on thanking you in person, but I told him you were busy with work. He insisted on dragging me here to wait for him."

These two people are Liang Qi and his agent, the director of the artist department at Yue Times.

With this new song release, he has perfectly capitalized on the popularity brought by his new agency. Not only has the song broken into the top ten of the hot song charts, but even Liang Qi, who was previously unknown, has been propelled to new heights by his influence.

"Let's talk in my office."

As soon as she entered the office, Liang Qi placed the gift box on the table and said, "I didn't know what kind of tea you liked, Teacher Wei Ran, so I just bought you some tea."

The latter glanced at the gift box out of the corner of his eye, his smile widening, and deliberately said, "How was the new song today? I haven't been paying much attention."

Upon hearing this, Liang Qi quickly replied, "It's currently firmly in first place on the new song chart, and it's already reached ninth place on the July hot song chart."

"not bad."

Wei Ran nodded slightly, but the corners of his mouth curved into an arc.

The director of the artist department said, "I checked again yesterday. From now until October, no big names in the music industry will release new songs or albums. Our 'That Rainy Season' might very well top the hot song charts for four consecutive months."

Liang Qi immediately exclaimed excitedly, "If that's really the case, does that mean I have a chance to be nominated for Best Male Singer at the Golden Wheat Awards next March?"

Wei Ran calmly nodded: "Very likely."

"what……"

Liang Qi's mouth dropped open, so excited that he couldn't even speak. He was just a second-tier singer, and if he could get a Golden Wheat Award nomination this time, it would be like rising to the top in one step.

Wei Ran suddenly asked, "By the way, you mentioned Zhou Yang also released a new song, how's it going?"

"You mean Zhou Yang? He barely made it to tenth on the new song chart, and I didn't see him ranked at all on the hot song chart. I guess he's just following the trend and joining in the fun. They chose a newcomer who has no reputation at all, and Xingchen Entertainment didn't give him any publicity."

Upon hearing this, Wei Ran was completely relieved and said calmly, "None of these young male celebrities in the entertainment industry have any self-awareness."

"Wei, you're absolutely right."

Star Entertainment.

"Hey, didn't you say it would work? How come it's been three days and there's still no sign of anything?"

For the past three days and the entire month, the pop music scene has been almost entirely focused on discussing Wei Ran and his song "That Rainy Season".

In contrast, "All the Way to Bloom" barely made a splash.

This made Sun Weiwei, the main character in this debut battle, completely unable to sit still, and she rushed directly to Zhou Yang's office.

The latter was leaning back in his soft chair, listening to music and resting with his eyes closed. Seeing her in such a hurry, he immediately said irritably, "Next time, please knock before entering my office. Wouldn't you be embarrassed if I caught you doing something inappropriate for children?"

After saying that, he picked up his phone and turned off the speakers on his desk.

What he had just listened to was his opponent's "That Rainy Season".

This song has a traditional campus folk song flavor. Although it can't be called a hit, it's not bad. Its musicality is much higher than his song "All the Way to Blooming Flowers", but the melody is a bit old.

Sun Weiwei was speechless for a moment, and Zhou Yang asked again, "How many followers do you have on Douyin now?"

"This morning it was over 260 million."

"not bad."

Zhou Yang nodded, seemingly satisfied with the number.

The reason I filmed the collaborative video was to boost the popularity of Sun Weiwei's new account.

He then pointed to the sofa, gesturing for the other person to sit down.

"I checked the data on Cola Music yesterday, and the number of downloads had already exceeded one million a long time ago. In addition, the number of times it has been used as background music on Douyin has exceeded six million..."

Zhou Yang continued, "We're aiming for the championship for the entire month and even the next three to four months. Only three days have passed, what's the rush?"

"But...but..."

"No buts, the short video industry is all about quantitative and qualitative changes. Go home and wait patiently."

"oh oh."

Although Sun Weiwei obediently shut up, her unease and anxiety were still written all over her face.

But Zhou Yang believes that this song is destined to become a huge online hit, just like in his previous life; it's only a matter of time.

A week later, "All the Way to Bloom" had been used more than 15 million times on the Douyin music platform.

It's summer vacation, and students who have just finished the middle and high school entrance exams, young women who love to travel, and some artsy guys like to use the repeated chorus, or even the whole song, as background music for their travel commemorative videos.

And so, the song gradually began to attract the attention of many netizens, quickly creating a huge sensation on short video platforms.

"Haha, this song 'Flowers Bloom All the Way' is a perfect match for my beach travel video."

"I went to the countryside during my summer vacation and took a lot of beautiful photos and videos. They look absolutely stunning with this song."

"The sunset at sea is like a painting from my youth, spread across the sky waiting for seagulls to carry it away; distant sails are battered by the wind and waves; for the sake of dreams, I am not afraid of any pain..." Can you find more beautiful lyrics than these in summer? I love them!

"This song was written by my son, and as a big fan of mutton, I'm incredibly proud right now. [Smug]"

"I'm begging for help from kind people to tell me the song title. I really love this melody and want to download it from a music platform."

"Keep kneeling upstairs, you're another blind fool."

"..."

The explosive popularity of this song on major short video platforms has finally begun to benefit major mainstream music platforms, and the song is gradually gaining wider recognition and becoming known to the general public.

The number of listeners and downloaders has been rising steadily, and the song has finally reached second place on the new song chart, even just one step away from the top spot, "That Rainy Season". In addition, it is also very close to the top ten on the hot song chart.

Regarding the explosive popularity of "All the Way to Blooming Flowers," compared to short video platforms, the mainstream music industry has mostly been critical, believing that the song has no musicality whatsoever, and that from the lyrics to the melody, it is just a pure pop song.

Among them, the most scathing remarks came from the sharp-tongued music critic Ding Dasheng:

"To be honest, compared to his peak period, Wei Ran's 'That Rainy Season' is not a particularly high-quality work in terms of lyrics and music, but it is definitely not something that a song like 'All the Way to Bloom' can compete with."

Zhou Yang's new song, from lyrics to melody, is filled with an unbearably vulgar, internet-famous vibe. In fact, the word "unbearably vulgar" itself becomes unbearably vulgar when used to describe the song.

The fact that a song like this can appear on both charts undoubtedly proves that Chinese pop music is in serious decline and that music fans today lack musical taste…”

"Thank you. I was rude a few days ago and misunderstood you."

Seeing her debut song becoming more and more popular, Sun Weiwei quickly came over to apologize for her past words.

"It's alright, I didn't take your words to heart anyway."

Zhou Yang lit a cigarette, completely unconcerned.

"you……"

In Sun Weiwei's opinion, Zhou Yang wasn't a bad person at heart, but his mouth was really wicked and vicious, even a bit despicable.

This person had clearly helped me so much, but after being rebuffed like that, I suddenly felt like cursing again.

She spoke again, but the office door clicked open, and Wang Man said with a delighted expression, "Yangyang, come with me quickly, President Lei wants to see you!"

Then she quickly stepped forward, snatched the cigarette from his mouth, and shoved it into the ashtray, complaining, "Why are you smoking again? It's bad for your throat."

After saying that, she grabbed his arm and pulled him out. Just before they left, she noticed Sun Weiwei on the sofa and quickly added, "Weiwei was great this time too. I'll arrange a few reporting duties for you in a few days."

"Thank you, Director Wang."
