Chapter 306
Chapter 306
The music scene in the first half of this year is destined to not be too calm, because Zhang Songnian wants Li Xingruo to realize his dream this year and become the queen of the Chinese music scene.
In March, Li Xingruo won the first place in both the new song list and the hot song list with "Because of Love" without any suspense.
In fact, when there are still the last few days of March, everyone knows that the situation is basically settled. "Because of Love" has received a lot of publicity because of Qu Xueyan's new movie. Not to mention, Li Xingruo himself The traffic that comes with these three words is also top-notch. It only took a week from the release of the song to the top.
For the singers who released new songs in March, the whole day in the second half of March is doomed to be gloomy, and they can't see any possibility of their new songs going over the mountain of "Because of Love".
The good news is that March is coming to an end, no matter what the damn oppressive feeling is, it is finally coming to an end, the oppressive feeling that Zhang Songnian + Li Xingruo brought to the singers is still too strong.
However, when everyone was rejoicing that March was about to pass, Li Xingruo once again became the number one most searched on Weibo.
On the last day of March, Li Xingruo updated a post on his personal Weibo. The title of the post was a new song preview, and the official website announced that the new song would be released on April [-]st, that is, tomorrow.
Li Xingruo released a new song again!
Less than half an hour after Li Xingruo posted the news, this news quickly occupied the trending searches on Weibo and the hot search lists of major social portal information websites.
"Speaking of which, this news can't be false, after all, tomorrow is April Fool's Day."
"At least one new song every month. It's been a long time since I saw Li Xingruo who works so hard. She's so hardworking. I cried to death!"
"Okay, okay, it would be even better if the album is released tomorrow! One song is obviously not enough."
"I fell into the pit after listening to "Red Bean", looking forward to tomorrow's new song, hoping to be as amazing as listening to "Red Bean" back then."
"No hype, no gossip, just focus on the music itself, such a singer is really amazing!"
"."
Hot searches about Li Xingruo's new songs quickly occupied the hot search list, and at least four of the top ten were hot searches about Li Xingruo.
But this time it's a pity that Li Xingruo didn't have time to do the warm-up event for the new song because of the rush of time.
However, even so, after Li Xingruo released the new song in the official announcement, Li Xingruo's Weibo message reached millions of comments in less than 24 hours, and basically all fans came here to leave a message and check in.
Compared with fans and fans' perspective, in the singer circle, the news of Li Xingruo's release of a new song also aroused the shock of many singers in the circle.
"I'm going, why are you releasing a new song? I originally planned to release a new song next month, but now it seems that it will be delayed."
"She's releasing songs every month, isn't she planning to complete the grand slam of the charts this year?"
"Hiss, don't tell me, it has already won the first place in the double list for three consecutive months, maybe they really plan to do so."
"Be confident, delete the word maybe, I guess that's what these two people intend."
"To be honest, I think so too. There is a high probability that they are fighting for popularity and exposure. It seems that Li Xingruo is bound to win the queen this year."
"To be reasonable, do people still think that she is not the Queen of Heaven now? With Li Xingruo's current state, even in terms of singing skills alone, there are not many people who can compare to her, let alone a husband who is superb in writing lyrics and composing music. As long as there are no major accidents, the position of Tianhou is basically hers today."
"It makes sense. I guess it's really for the grand slam. Speaking of which, the Golden Melody Awards have been established for so long. Does anyone remember who was the last ruthless person who completed the grand slam of the list?"
"To be reasonable, if I remember correctly, this record does not exist, which means that no one has been able to accomplish this feat."
This is definitely a feat, not to mention that it takes twelve rounds in twelve months, the highest record I remember should be the sixth round."
"It's great to have a husband who can write lyrics and compose music. The single dog shed tears of envy."
"Wait! If I remember correctly, Li Xingruo has already won the first place in the double list for three consecutive months. I still think it's a bit arrogant to want to be reasonable for twelve months in a row."
"."
Regarding Li Xingruo's release of the new song, everyone has different opinions. Of course, most people are already secretly guessing Li Xingruo's thoughts and plans.
In fact, Li Xingruo didn't think too much about it. On the contrary, Zhang Songnian already had an obsession with Li Xingruo winning the Grand Slam.
This kind of behavior seems to many singers to have such determination is already a great thing.
After all, this is the number one on both charts. Fortunately, the new song list is not very competitive. After all, it will be refreshed once a month.
The hot song list is different. In addition to the newly added songs, the hot songs on the new song list every month can still continue to participate in the battle of the hot song list, and the top songs on the hot song list From time to time, a few classic golden songs will emerge.
The reason why in many people's minds, Li Xingruo is already worthy of the title of Queen of Heaven is because Li Xingruo has frequently released hit songs that are comparable to classic golden songs in the past two years, and they have lasted for a long time.
The song "Fulfillment of Wishes" has been released for two years, but it can still appear in the top [-] of the hit list.
Another example is a song like "Courage" that has been released for more than a year. Since its release, this song has never dropped out of the top ten of the hot song list, and its performance is quite stable.
And Li Xingruo is not just these two songs. Since "Ruishing" became popular, Li Xingruo's more than 20 songs have almost without exception been within the TOP200 of the hot song list.
To put it bluntly, Li Xingruo already has a certain degree of dominance over the hot song charts.
People even unceremoniously suspect that if Li Xingruo hadn't released only these 20 songs after he became popular most of the time, there might be more songs from Li Xingruo on the hot song list.
Just like in middle school exams, some people can get [-] points because the test paper only has [-] points at most.
The time came to April, at midnight on the first day, April Fool's Day.
For many of Li Xingruo's fans and many singers in the circle, it is doomed not to sleep too early tonight.
Fortunately, although today is April Fool's Day, Li Xingruo obviously didn't joke with everyone. She really released a new song as promised, and the title of the song just happened to be like a promise to fans. This is a "promise".
What's more interesting is that this time Li Xingruo didn't play the male and female chorus of the song "Promise", but came a Chinese and Cantonese version.
Although Li Xingruo had also played the bilingual version of the song "Dream Chaser" before, the Cantonese version of "If There Is Love" has been mediocre in mainland China after it was released, but the song "If There Is Love" in Hong Kong and Macau It was a smash hit, and even the Xiangjiang Golden Melody Award that year was directly awarded to the song "If there is love in the sky".
However, since entering the new century, the music awards in Xiangjiang no longer have much influence, so Li Xingruo didn't go to the scene to accept the awards.
And after a year and a half later, when Li Xingruo played the Mandarin and Cantonese versions again, he never thought that the effect this time would be surprisingly good.
Li Xingruo himself does not know Cantonese, but Zhang Songnian, and Zhang Songnian took the trouble to correct Li Xingruo's pronunciation when Li Xingruo was recording, and Li Xingruo's language talent seems to be top-notch. It didn't take too long, and the Cantonese version of "Agreement" went smoothly finished recording.
The song "Promise" is a love song. On Earth, the Mandarin version is sung by Wanwan singer Zhou Hui, and the Cantonese version is Faye Wong.
The reason why Zhang Songnian insisted that Li Xingruo also record the Cantonese version by the way is because Zhang Songnian believes that the content of the song itself expressed by the Cantonese version is always better than the two versions.
Whether it is the way the singer sings or the lyrics of the song, Zhang Songnian thinks that the Cantonese version is much better.
The comparison between the lyrics of the two versions in Mandarin is indeed a lot worse, but there is really no way to do it. The lyrics in the Mandarin version are written by Yao Ruolong, and the lyrics are relatively straightforward; compared with the lyrics written by Mu Muxi in the Cantonese version, there is indeed a lot less artistic conception. .
But there is no way around this. Although this person has a problematic position, in terms of talent, even when the Hong Kong entertainment industry was at its peak, there were no more than five fingers in the field of lyrics.
Generally speaking, the feelings expressed by the two versions are the same. In addition to the lyrics, there are also singing skills and singing skills. Obviously Zhou Hui and Faye Wong are not in the same order.
However, after Li Xingruo finished recording the two versions of the song, Zhang Songnian found that there was actually not much difference between the two songs. The language gap between the two songs was actually not as big as he imagined. Just the person who sings.
Li Xingruo's talent is comparable to that of Faye Wong, and his wife is no worse than A Fei in terms of voice or singing.
After the Mandarin version was recorded, Zhang Songnian discovered that although the Mandarin version of the song "Promise" lacks some artistic conception in the lyrics, it is actually not bad with Li Xingruo's distinctive ethereal voice.
After all, the audience of Cantonese is not of the same order of magnitude as Mandarin, and there are still a small number of people who can understand Cantonese and understand the artistic conception in the lyrics.
Although the Mandarin version's lyrics are a little worse than the Cantonese version, it doesn't mean that his lyrics for this song are poor.
On the contrary, Yao Ruolong's lyrics are already very good. After all, his opponent is that man. In the entire Chinese music scene, only players like Huang Zhan, Fang Wenshan, and Huang Weiwen can compare with him.
The lyrics of the Mandarin version of "Promise" are indeed straightforward and direct enough.
But Li Xingruo expresses that kind of direct emotion very well, sincerity is the eternal nirvana, and a voice that can impress fans is a good voice.
Obviously the song "Promise" did it.
On the second day after the song was released, the song "Promise" directly airborne to the top of the new song list. In terms of the performance of the hot song list, "Promise" did not bad at all, and directly squeezed into the top two of the hot song list. ten.
It is a pity that the 24-hour sales of this song did not break the previous record set by the album "Red Bean".
Although it failed to break the record, the sales volume of "Promise" is not low, and it can still achieve this sales volume on the first day. It is foreseeable that the sales volume of this song can be second only to Li Xingruo's previous "Red Bean". album sales.
The lyrics of the Mandarin version of "Promise" are straightforward, and the feelings are straightforward. In front of the public, this song has no threshold for listening to the song, and in terms of difficulty in singing, there is almost no difficulty. Anyone who is a normal person can hum a few lines Not out of tune.
From minors to middle-aged and elderly people, they can almost understand what this song is singing and what it is singing about.
Therefore, in the two weeks after the release of this song, after the fermentation and spread of time, this song once occupied major shopping malls and shops, on the stage of the campus, and in the boxes of KTV.
This kind of scene made Zhang Songnian think that he had returned to the millennium in his previous life. "Promise" was released in 1999. During the millennium years, Zhang Songnian went to the streets with the adults in his family almost every time, and the streets were filled with this song.
The song "Promise" became popular, and it was a phenomenal explosion.
On the seventh day after the song was released, "Promise" had already reached the top of the hot song list, and because of the continuous ferment of the song's popularity, the honor of the first double list in April has basically been won by Li Xingruo again .
Although many people are well aware that the song "Promise" must be able to complete the feat of re-topping the list.
But everyone really didn't expect to lead the two rankings for almost a month with such a posture and won the consecutive championship.
It wasn't until now that people discovered that it wasn't just Li Xingruo who released songs in the middle of the month that was scary, but Li Xingruo who released songs at the beginning of the month was even more scary!
That kind of horror is the kind of horror that makes you see no hope at all.
Many singers who have plans to release new songs have already started to tremble.
Who knows, family members, met a girl
In short, it is one word, fear.
"Do you think she will continue to release new songs next month? If so, I will discuss it with my agent and plan to make plans a few months later."
"Laughing, you don't think you can escape a few months later, right? They are obviously planning to go for reelection. Judging by this posture, unless you don't release a song this year, you probably won't be able to escape. Accept your fate."
"It's really arrogant, but it's the most abominable thing that you can't do anything about her even if you are really so arrogant."
"Do you believe that if your husband is Zhang Songnian, you are more arrogant than her?"
