Who taught you to be a celebrity like this?

85. Strength matches popularity

The release of Tourbillon was completely unexpected.

The vast majority of people who heard this song immediately were not his fans.

Some people might even find the name "Li Ye" unfamiliar.

Ma Yifan is not a fan of Li Ye.

As a rich second-generation from Liede Village in Guangzhou, he was scolded by his father for his negligence at work, and he stopped going to work and went home to play video games.

Ma Yifan sat in front of the computer, opening League of Legends and Penguin Music at the same time.

He didn't particularly like music, but he was used to listening to songs while playing games.

He suddenly noticed the cover art recommendations on Penguin Music.

Li Ye?

It seems to be quite popular lately.

Ma Yifan casually opened the app, played a recommended song, then switched to the game screen and started matchmaking.

However, upon hearing that it was in Cantonese, Ma Yifan switched back to the music interface and curiously looked at the lyrics.

"This Li Ye is got some skills!"

Ma Yifan didn't understand those professional things, but he could tell that Li Ye sang really well and the lyrics were very well written.

It perfectly captures his true feelings!

Life is only a few decades long, why live such a tiring life?

Ma Yifan couldn't understand his father at all. He could have just retired, but he insisted on working so hard and had such high expectations of him.

He refused to confirm his entry into the game and listened intently to "Tourbillon," intending to use the song to refute his father.

But after listening to it a few times, Ma Yifan refuted himself.

To be fair, he has never suffered hardship, nor has he ever sacrificed "ten inches of time and minutes" for "ten inches of gold".

Ma Yifan pondered whether he was only thinking about enjoying himself.

However, he was only thinking about it at the moment, reflecting on it a little. Adults' values ​​are not so easily influenced.

Also, Ma Yifan felt that his father should listen to this song, so he shared it in the family group chat and tagged his father.

It carries a somewhat rebellious and provocative tone towards the Heavenly Gang.

So Ma Yifan silenced his phone and started the game. After the game ended, he saw his dad's reply in the group chat.

"This song is good."

......

"Xiao Song, why are you in such a hurry to take your annual leave? Did something happen at home?"

In a company in Changsha, the manager saw in the management system that an employee was in a hurry to take annual leave the next day, so he called the employee to the office to ask about the situation.

"It's good that you're alright."

Seeing Xiao Song's hesitant look, the supervisor knew it wasn't what he had guessed, and said with a smile, "I don't mean anything by it. I'll approve it for you right now. The main thing is that you haven't taken any annual leave in the five years you've been with the company, and you're in such a hurry this time."

Xiao Song finally breathed a sigh of relief. He had never asked for annual leave before and didn't know how to ask.

"So you're planning to go back and go on blind dates?" The supervisor admired Xiao Song's hard work and couldn't help but tease him.

"No, I was planning to go out for a walk. I suddenly realized that burying myself in work all the time isn't a good thing." Xiao Song is an honest person and answered very frankly.

"Have you decided where to go yet?"

"No, I'll look into it after get off work tonight."

"You...you're really alright?"

The supervisor's expression turned strange. If something had happened at home and he hadn't decided where to go, why was he in such a hurry to take leave?

"It's really nothing, Guang-ge. You don't seem to get much rest either, do you? You're always there whenever I work overtime. You can listen to 'Tourbillon,' Li Ye's new song."

"Okay, I'll listen when I have time."

Li Guang continued working, and in the middle of it he called his wife to tell her that he wouldn't be home for dinner. Before he knew it, it was already 8 p.m.

Once he was in the car, he suddenly remembered what Xiao Song had mentioned about "Tourbillon" that afternoon.

He didn't know Li Ye, but he was particularly sensitive to the song's title.

Tourbillon, a clock regulating device.

With industrial progress, this craft has become more accessible, and a domestically produced watch with a tourbillon can now be bought for a few hundred or a thousand yuan.

However, the tourbillon still holds special significance in high-end luxury watches.

Li Guang had dreamed many times that he would earn a million a year and finally be able to afford his beloved tourbillon watch, which was the reason he worked so hard.

Driven by curiosity, he connected to the car's Bluetooth and played the song "Tourbillon".

When Li Guang drove onto the road, he heard Li Ye singing. He was somewhat surprised that Xiao Song, a native of Zhengzhou, was recommending a Cantonese song to him.

Fortunately, I had worked in Guangdong Province for a few years before, so I could understand it without looking at the lyrics.

Isn't this song supposed to be quite inspiring? Why does Xiao Song want to take a vacation after listening to it?

However, Li Guang, who was still puzzled, gradually became serious, his expression thoughtful.

On his way home, Li Guang listened to the same song on repeat the whole way, countless times.

He parked the car in the parking space, and the song was halfway through; he planned to listen to the rest before getting out.

Just then, someone knocked on the car window. It was Li Guang's wife, who had just returned from shopping at the supermarket with the children.

Li Guang's wife feigned anger: "You don't want to go back and see me, do you?"

After getting out of the car, Li Guang hugged his child tightly and suddenly asked, "Honey, did you return the watch you bought me yesterday?"

"Oh, I had forgotten about it if you hadn't mentioned it. I'll take it back for a refund tomorrow." Li Guang's wife was genuinely angry when the topic came up.

She carefully selected the watch and spent two months' salary to buy it, but Li Guang disliked it, saying it had no soul and it was better not to wear it at all.

"I won't refund it."

......

Without any prior announcement, "Tourbillon" garnered over three million favorites across the internet in less than ten hours after its release, and its popularity continues to spread.

This is undoubtedly an incredibly high level of popularity.

Especially for Cantonese songs, it has been a long time since a Cantonese song has become a nationwide hit.

Many music critics and reaction bloggers have praised this song highly.

Among them, a blogger named "Caiyoulan" made a reaction video about "Tourbillon" that was extremely popular.

When I first heard "The Ordinary Road," I was very happy that another promising singer-songwriter had emerged in the Chinese music scene. However, I have always had some concerns about Li Ye.

I really like Li Ye. He is free-spirited, very energetic, and has a great personality. He never fights internally, and I really want to be like him.

Perhaps it's because many people are like me that Li Ye is so popular, with popularity comparable to top idols.

However, it must be admitted that Li Ye's reputation has always outweighed his actual ability.

As a singer, Li Ye only has three songs in total, and he only sang one of them, "The Ordinary Road".

These past few days everyone has been enthusiastically discussing "The Wilderness," and I'm also looking forward to it, but I'm more worried about whether Li Ye can live up to this expectation.

When I heard the suddenly released song "Tourbillon" today, I really breathed a huge sigh of relief.

I don't think I need to say much about the lyrics and music of this song. From my personal perspective, it is definitely a masterpiece.

What makes me even happier is Li Ye's singing skills.

"Tourbillon" may not sound like it has many high notes, but students who have studied vocal music should know how difficult it is to sing. Those who have doubts can try it themselves.

Okay, after saying all that, what I really want to say is that Li Ye's current abilities absolutely match his popularity!!!

As someone from Guangdong province, I hope Li Ye will create more great Cantonese songs in the future!
