Reed next door [entertainment]

097

After the return of the last album, Ivey went to BBMA, and then returned to China, in addition to the development conference and exclusive interviews with various media, he continued to carry out the next promotional activities.However, the time for Ivy to return to playing songs has always been only 4 weeks, except that the song program of Billboard Week was recorded in advance, and there is only one week of activities after returning.

After the ballad activity ended, Eva, who likes variety shows, went to shoot variety shows step by step, and the others either continued to write songs or practice, or took a break.Although there seems to be no announcement arrangement on the surface, in fact, there are quite a lot of daily posters, magazine interviews, commercial shootings or other miscellaneous performances and commercial performances.

In addition, it is the second world tour that will be held after the end of the new album's title song promotion.Although the time interval between the scenes arranged in each city is quite long, but a city can be filmed in two or three days, and the requirements for short-term physical fitness are relatively high.

Ivey is on tour, Gale is lonely.Although there are still programs that are on the air, for Gale, the program that airs one episode in two weeks is too short. Many fans went to the weibo of the program group and said angrily that they "as an excellent How can the program group be so short!Excuse me! '

So all the men in the program group were shot for no reason.

Fortunately, for the fans, there is also Elisa who likes to go to SNS to inform the status quo at any time.Whether she is on weibo or twitter, she is very diligent in updating.

As early as a month before the release of the Chinese single, she once uploaded a photo in the recording studio. In the photo, Qian Jun also turned his back to the camera, with long platinum-blonde hair loose. I don't understand but I know it is the interface of the recording software. Venus stands beside Qian Junye, bending over to talk, while Eva in the studio is recording the lyrics.

This was obviously a state of work, which immediately made the Gales howl with excitement, asking in the message area if they were preparing a new song.

In addition, Eliza has also posted a lot of photos or words that cryptically show her recording.For example, 'Chinese is so difficult', 'My throat is about to burn', etc., which are not frequent but almost once or twice a week.

This number of times is really not much for Elisa who sometimes tweets two or three times an hour, and it can be regarded as faintly telling Gale that they are just making trouble.So Gale is thinking, when is Ivy going to release the song, is it in Chinese, English or Korean?You must know that apart from the Chinese version of the album in April this year, Ai Weike has not released a pure Chinese version of the song yet.

Fans are waiting secretly, but the mainland company's announcement is extraordinarily calm.

Netizens have a certain aversion to the overwhelming brainwashing propaganda. Every day because of various rumors and gossips and other celebrities who appear in the daily recommendation, they will feel psychologically disgusted after watching too much. Hai's high-quality and excellent literary and artistic works are full of a seemingly obligatory sense of responsibility.

How can I be the only one who knows about such a beautiful and beautiful work?How can no one promote it!Must let more people know about it!

The accumulation of similar fans has become a special propaganda force - the tap water army.

Ai Wei's new song was released on a sunny day, and it was still a drowsy time at noon.The new song quietly appeared at the first place under the singer's song list.

On the bright side, the company doesn't seem to be doing too much publicity. It just quietly picked a time when the network traffic is the least, and very calmly posted a weibo: EVEL's new single "Ai Cao" was officially released. [audition link]

Not even a topic.

In private, it still attracted many people to help read the messages, and they all spoke in ways that were not fans, as if a passer-by accidentally broke in and heard a good song.

And Elisa, who often sends Weibo, also turned off her mobile phone, and did not see the fans' inquiries.

None of the members came out to promote it, only the official blog of the agency.However, the agency's official blog has very few followers, so that when the fans got off work in the afternoon, they didn't know that Ai Wei actually posted a song until they refreshed it!What's even more gratifying for fans in Chinese-speaking regions is that this is still a Chinese song!

It's not a cover or a Chinese version of a Korean song, but a Chinese song with only one version!

There is no habit of playing songs in China. If a new song is not hyped, except for fans who will follow it, outsiders will not know until the song becomes popular or pushed to their homepage, and will try to listen to it .

Ivy is famous and well-known, which is only compared to the singers who are also idol groups.In fact, there have been many singers in China in recent years, but without strong companies and excellent music, most of them are in a state of being unknown.But for those variety artists or stars who have been on TV all year round and have regular programs, Ivey's popularity is just a drop in the ocean, not a big deal.

Therefore, before the Gales know that their idols are releasing songs, the tap water army that pours into the comments naturally comes from the general public.

[I'm the God of God!So fucking good! 】

[This song is so nice, I can’t get enough of it after listening to it once]

[I was attracted by the prelude, I don’t know what musical instrument it is, but it made my hair stand on end when I heard it in the summer]

【Which singer is EVEL?Such a good song has never been advertised?Directly crush those songs on the homepage that have been promoted for a long time, okay==]

[God!I have a song? ? ?Why didn't I see the promotion! ? ?What the hell is the company announcing? 】

.......

Because the official announcement was low-key, there were not many self-media reposts except for his own website, and there was even a situation in the comment area where only one or two of the ten comments were Gale.

Wait until the time to ferment slowly, after nearly 24 hours have passed.Relying on the power of passers-by and fans, the song jumped from the last few to the first page, and it is still in the process of fermenting.

Because it was launched simultaneously all over the world, in addition to the app in the mainland, the music software of other countries also put the sound source of this song on the shelves, so... foreign bigwigs who couldn't understand it exploded.

[Please hand over the DJ of this song! ! !I spent [-] million to ask him to come out and make a song for my idol! 】

[Although I don't understand what this song means, but the music is really awesome! 】

[I know that all Ivy members can speak English!So you're all on the bulletin board already!Why haven't you released an English song yet!Didn't you know that Chinese is the most difficult language in the world to learn? (Forcibly tearing off my Chinese daily conversation textbook)]

[Translation!Where are the fans?Send out the lyrics to the effect! !I really want to know what this song is about!Who will cove it!And why doesn't Ai Wei release English songs 1]

[Please release the English version! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !This song is really awesome! ! ! ! ! !I love it so fucking much! ! ! ! 】

In addition to various "fxxk" and "dope", there are "wow" and exclamation points, filling the entire screen.

Accompanied by the amazement of music lovers and fans, the company's publicity is still going on step by step. However, I don't know whether to say that Ivey has too many fans or that Ivey's music is too attractive.

A week later, "Wormwood" airborne No.1 on the bulletin board.When the publicity and distribution department in the mainland got the news, their brain froze for two seconds, and they subconsciously asked, "Billboard China?"

"No! It's HOT100!!!"

"Fuck—"

The team leader, who was shocked for a moment, spoke dirty words. At this moment, he really couldn't find words that fit his mood at the moment.

This is not the kind of achievement that Rebaek can achieve simply by selling fans.Do you know the rules of hot hundred?

Radio accounted for 55%, download sales accounted for 40%, active streaming media accounted for 5%, and physical sales accounted for 1%.

See clearly, physical sales only account for [-]%!what does that mean?No matter how many albums the fans bought, they would buy them back after clicking a few songs on the radio.

So what else does this mean? "Wormwood" has extremely high points for radio order and download sales!

Think about it calmly, how many fans of Ivy can be more than the total population of the United States?And it was only a week, there was no advance notice, fans were caught off guard, and it was already several days late when they thought of making the list, so it can still be number one, which proves the popularity of this song in the United States. unimaginable!

The announcement team leader was so frightened that his heart beat so fast, it hurt so fast.

When I really wanted to clarify the matter and found that the first Chinese character "Ai Cao" in the data compiled by the bulletin board was an excerpt of a Chinese song, the team leader's first reaction was "their announcement is Not dull."

The songs are all on the top, and they are still posting "Congratulations to Ai Wei for releasing a new song" here, I'm afraid they will be scolded to death by fans.

When Gale sorted out the screenshots of the data and sent them to China and even posted the topic #艾威通市第一# on the first page of the hot search, most of the netizens or other fans were skeptical.

Fans in the domestic music circle are also assigned. The European and American circles look down on all circles. The radius of the Korean and Japanese circles is eighty-two.

This also has a lot to do with the stagnation of Chinese music in recent years.After all, decades ago, when "Sweet Honey" was popular all over the world, who would have thought that the Chinese music circle would become what it is today.

So when they saw that the number one bulletin board on the screenshot was a Chinese song, the fans who didn't know to check it directly turned on the mocking skills, and satirized Aiwei and Aiwei's fans all over.

[I know that you want to be popular and crazy, but people need shame and bark, so don't lose face abroad, okay? 】

【puff?Chinese song?Brand No. [-]?Hahahahahaha, do you want to laugh at my big teeth!Are you stupid!I think you don’t even know how to climb over the wall, you’re number one, you idiot]

[I can laugh at this joke for a year, let me take a screenshot and save it and then take it out and laugh, really everyone is stupid, thinking that Rebai can be entered by anyone? 】

[It's awesome, the sky is going to be blown up, it's all made by fans, fans have worked hard, I don't mind listening to this song, I really don't understand the taste of stick powder]

[...Silly [beep——], why don't you go directly to the official website before questioning?Those who can climb over the wall can climb over the wall, and those who can’t go to station B to watch the video uploaded by Grandma, don’t need to look for it, just drag it to the end, open your eyes and see clearly]

[Fuck...it's really number one, I just came back from YouTube, it's too scary, right? When did this girl group come out?Am I dreaming? ? ? ? ? 】

People who have doubts and brains will check it out by themselves, and people who don’t believe in life and death and love ignorance, even if you put the evidence in front of his eyes, he will pretend to be blind and pretend not to see it.

Although Ivy's Chinese single this time is a Chinese song, the melody and rhythm are completely the type that Europe and the United States like.Chinese people will find it a bit strange when they first listen to it, but after listening to it too much, they will become fond of it.

The black fans were raving about it on the Internet, but it was well received abroad. Friends who met on the bulletin board before contacted each other. Whether it was to save face, make friends or want to cooperate, they all agreed to ask a question this time:

Who is the DJ of "Wormwood"!

After understanding the current situation, DJ Ben J Qian Jun also said to Louis, who blushed and asked her for an English version of the song: "A short piece, I will keep it for myself."

Louis nodded fiercely, took out his mobile phone fiercely and pointed the microphone at her, the recording interface was on the screen.

Qian Jun was also helpless and funny, but at the same time he felt relieved.After all, even people with a personality like Louis are interested, so she is not afraid that she will not be able to win the ears of people in Europe and America.

Kim Namjoon only found out about this after the media released the news a week after Ivey released the song.There is a double sense of shock and of course that Ivey has conquered the billboard.

In terms of Ivy's past achievements and the nature of music, how rare and common it is for them to get the first place.But even though I had expected it, I didn't expect it to become a reality so quickly, and the impact was still very strong.

"I'm really curious now, how far can you take Ivy?" Jin Nanjun sighed, and then jokingly gave an example, "MJ's level?"

Qian Jun also smiled softly, and said meaningfully: "It won't be very far."

"I think it's really possible! Keep going like this! It's not impossible! Isn't it? Music has no nationality or language. As long as the voice is heard, everyone can understand your feelings, your demands, and your dreams." As Kim Namjoon was talking, he started talking again.

Qian Jun also asked: "Do you understand?"

"Danglan understands (Chinese)!" Kim Namjoon, who felt deeply questioned, was unhappy, "I'm really serious about learning Chinese, and I think I can talk to ARMYs directly in Chinese in the next inland scene." Already (Chinese)!"

Except that the position of subject, verb and guest is sometimes not right, Kim Namjoon's Chinese has really improved a lot unexpectedly.

Jun also hopes that he can get closer to fans in the Chinese-speaking circle. Although music crosses language barriers, language is also an important part of deeper communication and understanding.

"If you really have an idea, you can talk to the directors." Qian Jun also said, "Even if it is based on the script, fans will be very happy to hear their own language."

Just like she was in Spain before, she learned a few simple sentences in Spanish with standard pronunciation. Although it is short, the fans are really happy.

Kim Namjoon said, "I'm totally fine. But I'm worried about burdening the members."

If he really communicated with fans according to the script, he definitely wouldn't be the one who finished talking, all the members except him must show it.If you really want to show it, you must not be perfunctory. It will take some time just to learn the pronunciation and recite the dialogue.

Most importantly, both he and Yoongi brother are perfectionists.One thing to do must be the best. If you really want to interact with fans in Chinese at the concert, it will definitely take more time than imagined.

It takes time to correct the pronunciation alone. Even after learning Chinese for so long, he still can't speak clearly.

Moreover, this was completely unplanned. It involved the script and subtitles, and it would increase the workload of the entire work team. He didn't want to trouble everyone for his own selfishness.

"Think about it first, you can teach them simple Chinese, just the simple pronunciation for you." Qian Jun also said, without forcing it.

BTS is different from Aiwei. In addition to music, Aiwei can almost be said to be Qian Jun. She always has countless different reasons to persuade everyone, and the results are visible and effective. Over time, everyone has become obedient. .

When it comes to the concert, she thinks of the yet-to-be-completed BTS Macau venue, and remembers that Shi Feixuan yelled to let her accompany her to watch the con some time ago, and listened to Kim Namjoon chant so many times about the pity, and she also had a thought in her heart .
