Chapter 62 Praise!

An Yan is the anchor of an evening program on a certain radio station. In the office, he wears headphones to select the playlist to be played tonight.

According to her past habits, she opened and entertained the new song list, and directly added all the latest songs to the automatic play list.There are dozens of new songs appearing on the new song list every day, regardless of the size of the publishing company or the online songs, An Yan will scan them.

Closing his eyes, holding the warm teacup in his hand, An Yan quietly listened to the song flowing by his ears.

Go through the first time, delete some songs from the playlist that don't fit the tune, listen to it again, collect a few of them and put them in different playlists.

When Zicheng's "Light Boat" album appeared on the new song list, An Yan had just sorted out the previous songs. He thought tonight's playlist was enough, but Geyue Entertainment is a big company, and Jiang He Since Tian Wang also helped to promote this album, An Yan clicked on "Light Boat".

There is a photo of Li Chengxin on the cover of the album. He is standing sideways, wearing a slightly oversized suit with a navy blue ethnic pattern, looking down at a sprouting branch at his feet.

Behind him is a gradual blue, from the sparkling ocean blue at the bottom to the empty and whitish sky blue above.In the background, a boat-shaped light spot floats there, and it is unclear whether it is in the sea or in the sky.

Under the light spot is the carefully designed two characters "Guangzhou", with a slightly smaller font next to it, which is still Li Chengxin's stage name "Zicheng".

Looking at the album information, seven of the ten songs are folk songs, and two are old songs. An Yan still has a little impression.For An Yan's evening program, more soothing folk songs and old songs need more attention, so she still clicked on the title song "Light Boat" of the album with the same name.

An aggressive violin sound replaced An Yan's expected guitar solo, but before she could question the melody, a gentle male voice entered her ears.

"The little boat with lights sailing in the night sky,
Where are you going?Only the helmsman knows.

And have you forgotten, your goal?

Will the shining boat be damaged when going upstream?
That is obviously driving in the night sky, unrestrained..."

The crooning of the acoustic guitar replaced the passion of the violin, and the sound of the drums gradually pushed in.The singing reveals a sense of helplessness...

"Where is the lighthouse? Only the helmsman knows.

And have you forgotten the vow you made yesterday?

The end of the horizon can never be reached,

Is there strength in the bright boat?

You are obviously driving in the night sky, your heart..."

The sound of seagulls singing from the violin can be heard endlessly, far and near.Occasionally, the sound of the piano is added, just like the sloshing sea water, but no matter what, the small wooden boat driving in the sky cannot be reached.

It really feels like a folk song, but it is shockingly moving, as if digging out the long-forgotten memories from the depths of people's hearts.

"The bright boat never stops,

ride above the clouds,
traveling through the universe,
drive in my heart,
Driven by your power,
Don't let go of the steering hand,

fly! "

An Yan listened to this song, listened to it once, and decisively repeated the single again.

Listen again.

Listen again.

After repeating the cycle five times, An Yan took a deep breath and sipped the slightly cold tea. It seemed that his heart was tortured by this song, and then was washed away by the light that passed slowly in the sky.

An Yan drank a glass of hot water and listened to several other songs in the album "Light Boat".

It's decided, I will use this album for tonight's playlist!

Qi Lanting sat in front of the computer, looking anxiously at the time on the upper right corner of the computer.

Under his insistence, Yuan Zhao finally gave in and bought an unplanned advertising space for Li Chengxin with Qi Lanting's own money.

Ah Cha is a music critic with millions of active fans. His online program "Ah Cha Talks About Music" selects a few pieces of music to comment on every week, and his influence is almost at the top level among the younger generation of music critics.

In addition, being able to have a long-term personal column in the entertainment section of "Beijing Daily News" is the most direct manifestation of this music critic's influence.

In order for Ah Cha to write a comment for "Guangzhou" in the column, Qi Lanting not only wrote out a huge check, but also sent a huge favor - to hold a private concert for Ah Cha's girlfriend .It has to be said that Ah Cha really loves his girlfriend, but in a sense, Qi Lanting is his biggest rival in love, this is an act of leading a wolf into the house.

According to the unspoken rules established by the domestic critics and entertainment companies, it is a very normal business practice to collect money to write advertorials, but in order to ensure the authority of the reviews, music critics will not send good reviews for a poor quality album.

The entertainment company also wouldn't make such an unreasonable request, but Qi Lanting ignored it and asked Ah Cha to give Li Chengxin's new album a positive review since neither he nor Ah Cha had heard the album.

Of course, taking money to do things is the basic industry norm. After the music reviewer receives the check, no matter whether they give a positive or negative review, they will send it to the payer for review before publishing it. Only after it is approved, will it be officially published.

Ah Cha made up his mind that if it was an album without many highlights, he would give negative reviews, but he would point out the selling points of the album in the negative reviews to attract the interest of specific groups.

For example, if you simply give an album a low score, Qi Lanting will definitely not accept it.And if you change it another way, for example, "The guitar melody of this album will make you think about nothing, the lyrics are gorgeous, and the singer's singing has a retro style."

Such a description has a high probability of being accepted by Qi Lanting. Although it is not well received, it points out the selling point of the album and is quite attractive to a certain group of people who like ancient pop songs.

But in any case, Ah Cha is a professional music critic, he will at least listen to "Light Boat" before commenting.It's not like some morally corrupt guys who don't listen to songs, just use the outline given by Party A to expand a hot chicken article that doesn't know where to stand.

Out of responsibility for the fee and the bedside atmosphere of his girlfriend, Ah Cha listened to the album more than three times after the release of "Light Boat". It is already a very serious and responsible attitude to write a music review once.

Ah Cha has to admit that "Light Boat" is very catchy, with its arrangement and style, as well as its distant vocals, listening to it once is definitely not enough!
"Overall, the album "Light Boat" is a retro folk album with unique charm and unique style. The newly signed artist Zicheng of Geyue Entertainment presents fans with a well-produced, high-quality Excellent album. Despite some flaws, it's still an excellent record. Album rating: 4.3 out of 5."

For Acha's fans, the scene of Acha's harsh and sarcastic remarks about a certain young star's heavily invested album is still vivid in their mind, and Acha's level of pickiness and song recommendation are also obvious to all fans.

"It seems, it sounds like, "Light Boat" is really good!"

"Last night's evening broadcast also played "Lightboat" and "Maybe I Just Hope Someone's Waiting for Me". It's so good!"

"An album costs only 18 yuan, so it's not a loss if you buy it and keep it!"

----------

The album was finally released, and Li Chengxin immediately ran to the IT department to wait for the data.

After waiting for a day, the sales volume of the album was good, and it was actually very good. Before the publicity was fully spread out, almost 24 copies were sold on the music platform cooperated by the company within 20 hours. Calculated at the price of one piece, it can be seen that it can definitely pay back the cost.

Li Chengxin finally breathed a sigh of relief, not embarrassing Qi Lanting.

He knew that some people in the company complained about the resources he got for this album. He was obviously just a fifth-tier singer who had just signed a contract, but he was able to get songs by big-name composers. The treatment of second-tier stars.Why is he?Just because he is the gangster's son's cronies?

Therefore, many people are secretly gearing up, just waiting for this album to fail, so that they can make fun of Li Chengxin.

When those people were disappointed with the success of the album, Li Chengxin looked at his system data and sighed.

The system showed that Li Chengxin's prestige value increased slightly after the release of the album, but the increase in contribution value was actually 0.

Li Chengxin resigned to his fate. He originally thought about releasing the album. If the data is good, is it possible for his contribution value to break through the [-] million mark in one fell swoop.He had also speculated about the source of this contribution value before, and it seemed that it could only be obtained when doing activities related to agriculture, environmental protection and food.

So next, Li Chengxin ran several promotional meetings according to the company's arrangement, and participated in a variety show and an interview to advertise her album.Similarly, even though these programs have increased his exposure, the system still shows that he cannot get contribution points through these methods.

Finally, the matter of the album came to an end, Li Chengxin did not make any announcements for the time being, and the sales curve of the album also stabilized.

That being the case, he said hello to the company and Yuan Zhao, and planned to go back to his hometown to have a look.Yuan Zhao has no objection to this. Now he brought Qi Lanting and Brother Xiaoyong back to Zhangba Island with the crew to film the scene of the spring scenery in the series.Li Chengxin seems to be able to communicate more conveniently when he returns to the village.

Yuan Zhaohui and the company's production team will continue to follow up on the follow-up sales of "Light Boat", and Li Chengxin doesn't need to worry about it.

Before leaving, Li Chengxin also bought a box of his own album from the company at his own expense, and sent them to everyone who had broadcast live together before.

This list is basically the same as the list of New Year text messages he received during Chinese New Year.

A year ago, Li Chengxin returned to his hometown after being hidden by Huanxing Company, and it was about this time.

　When writing this chapter, I should have been in my hometown.I have been working during the Chinese New Year. I was looking forward to taking nearly two years of vacation last weekend, but... I am still working now, Lan Shou.This chapter refers to the cool writing method of "The Godfather of Rock and Roll". I really can't write cool essays. Others can write fifty chapters for an album recording, and I'm done with two chapters...
