This Star Doesn’t Work Overtime

  Chapter 102 100. The strongest musician of the new generation! Three songs entered the top ten at the same time. (Please subscribe)

 This night!

 It’s another sleepless night for many people.

 Huang Bin and Mo Bailin, for example, stayed up all night again. Not only were they too excited to sleep due to the rapidly increasing number of fans, they wanted to keep refreshing the page to see the new fans, and they wanted to keep talking and interacting with the fans.

 The news that kept a few people awake even more was that Chun Xia You You officially announced that Wang Cheng would release a new song next week.

 Doesn’t this mean that they can still sing Wang Cheng’s new songs next week?

Huang Bin and Mo Bailin’s teammates can’t wait to go out and have a party now…

Also not asleep were Xiao Daohong and Chen Hao.

They were also a little excited by the rapid increase in fans, but after taking another look at Huang Bin's fan page, neither of them could fall asleep.

 Because, Huang Bin’s number of fans has exceeded them.

Even the number of Mo Bailin’s fans is getting closer to them like crazy.

Chen Hao and Xiao Daohong were frantically posting messages and interacting on Weibo. They were frantically posting photos to show off their bodies and looks, hoping to take advantage of the high ratings to speed up their fan following!

 However, no matter what they did, they were still surpassed by Huang Bin, and Huang Bin was still widening the gap with them, and the gap with Mo Bailin was still narrowing!

Early in the morning, Xiao Daohong got up and went to the toilet staring at the dark circles under his eyes. He happened to meet Chen Hao who came out. The two knew what had happened when they looked at each other. The two brothers smiled bitterly and started chatting.

“Huang Bin and those guys are so lucky, they have more fans than the two of us.”

 Xiao Daohong said helplessly to Chen Hao.

Chen Hao nodded and reached into his pocket to smoke a cigarette, but there was nothing in his pocket. Then he remembered that he could not smoke during the show. He shook his head and said: "Hey, they will release a new song next week. We may have to be pulled away by them." There’s a gap!”

 Xiao Daohong also nodded helplessly, knowing that this was a fact, and they had no way to reverse it.

 The night passed.

 The number of fans of the two of them is approaching 7 million.

 However, Huang Bin's number of fans has directly exceeded 7 million, and he has quickly moved towards the threshold of 10 million. There is a glimmer of hope, which makes both of them jealous.

Mo Bailin’s number of fans has exceeded 5.5 million, and he rushed towards the two of them!

Similarly, the number of followers of Wang Cheng's other teammates has also increased rapidly. At this time, they all have three to four million fans. After the next performance, they may all pass the threshold of second-tier fans and achieve the terrifying achievement of all second-tier fans. …

This entire team has been firmly suppressed by their team before. Huang Bin has more than one million fewer fans than them, and the others have even fewer millions.

 Now, almost all the players are in the second tier, which is more than one level higher than their team as a whole.

Who can I talk to to reason with this?

The two looked at Wang Cheng's fan page again and found that Wang Cheng had just posted a message about a new song. The comment area was extremely popular, with a large number of messages appearing every second, and the number of fans had exceeded 27 million. , the rate of increase in fans seems to have dropped a bit?

 Previously, Wang Cheng gained four to five million followers in the most popular day after the show was aired!

Looking at this trend, it seems that Wang Cheng can only gain more than three million followers today?

 The two of them understood it as soon as they thought about it.

  The fan base of the traffic star circle is, after all, limited.

There are only so many star-chasing fans.

Wang Cheng has attracted 27 million fans. It is much more difficult to continue to increase his fans than before. It is much more difficult than trainees like them with millions of fans.

 For the circle of traffic stars, 30 million fans is a huge threshold and can be regarded as the ceiling for traffic stars.

The entire fan circle has approximately 30 to 40 million fans, and it is impossible for one person to catch all the fans in the fan circle.

Therefore, a popular star artist can attract about 30 million fans at most. If it is more, it cannot be achieved by simple hype and attracting traffic. It must have solid and good works and be on an influential program platform. This can only be achieved by relying on highly popular appearances to attract passers-by to become fans.

At present, there are only a few top-tier celebrities in the celebrity circle who have reached the ceiling of 30 million fans by attending the Spring Festival Gala.

 Wang Cheng’s number of fans is gradually approaching the ceiling of this traffic circle.

but…

Thinking of this, the two of them were stunned for a moment.

 Do you rely on your works to make a career in the industry?

Isn’t that what Wang Cheng is doing?

The three works that have been released are all popular works outside the circle. Among Wang Cheng's fans, there are a large number of non-fanfans.

 Click…

 A crisp sound.

The two of them looked up and saw Wang Cheng's dormitory opened in the distance. Wang Cheng went out wearing a black sportswear and a peaked cap on his head.

They knew that Wang Cheng was going for a morning jog.

The entire program team already knows Wang Cheng's work and rest time clearly, and it has even spread throughout the entire circle, so anyone who is interested can know the detailed information.

 At what time and what should be done, it is clear every day, and it must be implemented in place without making mistakes.

 “He went running.”

 Xiao Daohong said.

Chen Hao nodded: "I saw it."

The two of them went to the toilet in silence, washed their hands, and then went back to the dormitory to catch up on their sleep.

 …

Wang Cheng sent a Weibo message, washed up, and went out for a run.

 Having a day off yesterday, I have to start working again today.

 When he came back for dinner, Wang Cheng sent a message to Chen Xiaoyong to finalize the use time of the recording studio, and then sent a message to Huang Bin and others to record songs in the afternoon!

 Everything is natural.

 Chen Xiaoyong and Huang Bin both responded immediately—guaranteed no problem!

 Now, as long as it is something Wang Cheng orders, they will immediately carry it out without compromise!

Even after not sleeping all night, Huang Bin and Mo Bailin came to the recording studio early to gather and wait for Wang Cheng. Chen Xiaoyong contacted director Wu Tong and got confirmation immediately. The program team rented another recording studio outside. For his own use, the internal recording studio is almost exclusively for Wang Cheng's use.

The news that Wang Cheng will release a new song this week has already started to ferment outside. It has become the tenth hot news on Weibo. The ninth is the discussion of the spring and summer program group, and the eighth is the discussion of the Gecko Walking performance. The sixth is another scandal hyped by a big celebrity, and the fifth is a discussion about the male and female protagonists of a popular drama appearing in a variety show.

fourth…

 It’s Wang Cheng again!

It was an article posted by the blogger called Music Selection early this morning. It has already reached the fourth most popular spot. The number of people participating in the discussion has exceeded half a million, and the number of retweets and likes has exceeded 2 million. It is definitely the topic of the moment. One of the most popular topics, the title alone is extremely deceiving.

 —The most powerful musician of the new generation, Wang Cheng!

　Music Selections revealed on Weibo last time the reasons why Wang Cheng created Jingwumen and its sales at that time, which caused a heated discussion and gained some attention.

This time, it was obvious that he had set his sights on Wang Cheng again.

 If there is heat, you have to rub it, think of ways to rub it, and rub it hard!

 This is the survival rule of self-media bloggers in the current Internet era and traffic era.

　Music Selection previously produced reviews about popular music, but it has always been tepid, with only tens of thousands of followers.

 But last time I made an article about Wang Cheng’s Jingwumen, the number of followers jumped by hundreds of thousands, approaching one million, which can be regarded as a rise in the self-media.

 So, this time, he once again wrote an article about Wang Cheng, and obtained the specific sales figures of Wang Cheng's three songs from Penguin Music and posted them, which naturally attracted a lot of attention immediately.

“This is what I just asked about, the sales figures of Wang Cheng’s three works. I would like to share them with you.”

"Jingwumen has been releasing a song for a few weeks, and the cumulative sales have exceeded 15 million. Now because of Wang Cheng's increasing popularity, the sales of this song have increased faster. It is now ranked seventh on the monthly sales list. Please note This song has only been released for three weeks, missing a week at the beginning of the month, otherwise it would be no problem to have monthly sales of over 20 million."

“At the same time, Wuha’s sales have reached 15.8 million, ranking sixth on the monthly sales list. This song has only been released for two weeks, and the sales volume for the entire month will not be less than 20 million.”

“And Gecko Walking, which was just released yesterday, has sold 16 million, ranking fifth on the monthly sales list! Note that this song has only been released for two days.”

"This is all the works Wang Cheng has released so far, only three. However, the longest time was three weeks, and the shortest time was only two days, but they all ranked in the top ten of the monthly sales list. If he had released it earlier, The ranking must be the highest. The monthly sales volume of the first place is only more than 24 million. According to the growth rate of Gecko Walk, if you give him a month, it is definitely not a dream to reach the first place with a sales volume of 30 million. "

“This is the only musician who has achieved this in recent years. He has three songs in the top ten of the monthly charts.”

“In an era when Chinese music is declining, who is in favor and who is against saying that he is the strongest musician of the new generation?”

"The reason why I say he is the strongest musician, not the strongest singer, is because in addition to singing these three songs, he did all the other work."

"Writing lyrics, composing music, arranging, recording, post-production, etc. It's all him. He is such a versatile person. Let alone now, no one could do it in the golden age of the Chinese music scene more than ten or twenty years ago. He has done it. Moreover, he has done very well and has been highly recognized by people in the industry, which is even more commendable."

“The only regret is that he didn’t sing by himself. I know that he lacks talent in singing skills. However, if he practices for a long time, he can still improve effectively. I hope to hear him singing by himself next time.”

“I also hope that this is not his peak, but that this is a new starting point for the Chinese music scene.”

 …

This article ranks fourth among the most popular news.

 Definitely borrowed from the high ratings of Yesterday’s spring and summer program “You”.

 In addition, the gecko walk is also very popular, so it has attracted a lot of attention and comments.

"Wang Cheng is so good? I have listened to these three songs, but I didn't pay attention to the ranking. He is so good. I heard that he is only nineteen years old. I was still playing games in an Internet cafe when I was nineteen, and he is already the best musician. ."

"One thing to say is that the singers of these three songs have lowered the production level. If we find a few mature and capable singers to sing, the effect may be better. However, there are extra points for dancing. Wang Cheng's dance performance is so good It’s really wonderful, I’ve watched it several times.”

“Sisters who watch the video of Wang Cheng’s first performance every day raise their hands, they really love his appearance.”

“I like Gecko Walking very much. The other two songs are just average! However, I didn’t pay attention to who sang it, and then I realized that it wasn’t Wang Cheng himself.”

 “If you can’t sing, what’s wrong with it?”

“Three songs are on the top ten of the monthly charts at the same time. That’s really awesome, even better than my brother. Give me a chance and I’ll pay attention to it to see if it’s cool or not...”

“In recent years, there really haven’t been any good songs. These three songs by Wang Cheng are listenable, but that’s it!”

 “Looking forward to Wang Cheng’s new song to be released next week…”

“This speed of creation is amazing, okay? Who can do that, a new song every week? I’m almost used to waiting for his new song every week…”

 “Wang Cheng, release a new song quickly.”

 …

 Many people asked @王成himself to read this article, but Wang Cheng was busy working and ignored them completely.

Of course, even if he is not busy at work, he will not pay attention to these things.

He doesn’t care about rankings, being the best musician, or not being good at singing. He just wants to collect money to buy a house when he releases songs.

However, many other popular celebrity artists and trainees in the same class are paying attention to Wang Cheng's news. Many people are dissatisfied when they see this evaluation.

After all, they are all young people in their twenties. Who would obey a 19-year-old new trainee?     How can you be the strongest musician if he doesn't even sing...

so!

　　This article quickly aroused controversy and even a war of words, and the comment area became a battlefield.

Fans of many other big-name streaming celebrities are dissatisfied with this title. They feel that their own idol brother is the strongest. Wang Cheng is just a trainee who doesn't even sing himself. How can he be considered the strongest?

“My Tiange is the strongest, let’s see who is number one on the monthly list!”

“It’s amazing to be number one on the monthly list? My brother Feng was number one last month, and our brother is the strongest..."

“Can your brother write songs? Can he arrange them? Can he produce them?”

 “Our brother can sing by himself…”

 “Our brother can dance…”

 …

This is the norm in the entertainment industry now. The core of the traffic era is the fan economy, and the most active ones are this group of fans. They argue about whose brother is the most popular on major platforms every day, and everyone thinks that the one they support is the most popular. One of the means of fan management is to secretly provoke this kind of confrontation and scolding war. This can enhance the fans' sense of belonging and make them more willing to spend money for the idols they support...

 However, in the afternoon, these heats dropped rapidly and were no longer visible in the front.

Because Happy Girls has been aired, and Hunan Satellite TV has also spent a lot of resources to increase the ratings, and cannot let itself fall behind.

The ratings of the last episode of Shonan Satellite TV also remained above 2 points, making it one of the most popular variety shows at the moment. If the ratings of this episode can maintain above 2 points, then it will be one of the most successful variety shows this year.

Therefore, a lot of news about the most popular female trainees of Happy Girls such as Wen Yixiao and Zhu Ziqi began to appear on major platforms. Secondly, several big judges of Happy Girls also came out to promote the popularity.

 When it was broadcast in the evening, the popularity on the Internet was still very high.

Wang Cheng finished the afternoon recording work and still maintained his own rhythm, doing whatever he had to do.

 Subsequently, Chen Xiaoyong came over.

After knocking on the door, Wang Cheng called out, and Chen Xiaoyong opened the door and walked in. He glanced at Wang Cheng with a slightly reserved look. Although he was already in his thirties and Wang Cheng was only nineteen years old, he had an inexplicable feeling in front of Wang Cheng. This kind of restraint comes from the heart, as if facing some big shot, not daring to overstep in the slightest.

 “Wang Cheng!”

Chen Xiaoyong saw Wang Cheng reading a book and shouted.

Wang Cheng did not raise his head and just asked: "Well, what's the matter?"

 Chen Xiaoyong said in a low voice: "The broadcast of Happy Girls just ended. The performance was very exciting. It will definitely become popular, and the ratings may catch up with us."

 Wang Cheng: “Yeah!”

 He is not interested in these at all.

 Chen Xiaoyong continued: "Wen Yixiao danced and sang at the same time on the stage today, showing very strong singing skills, and it has become popular now."

 Wang Cheng: “Yeah!”

Chen Xiaoyong plucked up the courage and said, "Do you need me to contact the company and send you a professional vocal teacher? You have practiced in the company for a year before, learned vocal skills, and have a certain foundation. If you practice harder now, you can also Improve yourself before Tomorrow Idol starts, and then you can try to sing on your own, at least not worse than Huang Bin and the others."

 This is the solution Chen Xiaoyong thought of.

Wen Yixiao came with great force, showing her strong singing talent, her voice is very nice, and her singing skills are also very professional. It is obvious that she has the guidance of an expert behind her. Her strength is not inferior to that of the powerful professional singers nowadays, and she is only older than one. The top singers of the generation are inferior. Now the Internet is full of discussions about Wen Yixiao's speech. The popularity is amazing, ranking third in the hot news.

Chen Xiaoyong naturally does not want Wen Yixiao to overshadow Wang Cheng, so the solution he comes up with is to let Wang Cheng improve his singing skills and sing it himself the next time he records a song, to dispel any doubts about Wang Cheng's singing skills.

Even if you can’t really sing on stage, there’s nothing wrong with singing in the studio, right?

 When the time comes, if he hypes up a little more and establishes a personal profile, Wang Cheng will be a super singer-musician with no shortcomings.

 After all, a studio singer is also a singer!

Wang Cheng glanced at Chen Xiaoyong: "Why do you want to sing it yourself?"

 Chen Xiaoyong explained: "Nowadays, many public opinions outside think that you are not as good as Wen Yixiao because you are not good at singing, so you can only be a backup dancer and composer in the future!"

 Wang Cheng: “What does that have to do with me?”

 Chen Xiaoyong once again realized the difficulty of communicating with Wang Cheng.

 That is, Wang Cheng is extremely indifferent to the things that he cares about very much.

Chen Xiaoyong didn't know what to say for a while. He felt Zhang Xiuhua's difficulty at the beginning and understood why Liu Jinfeng was so angry...

“Wang Cheng, do you want to be compared to Wen Yixiao? Don’t you want to be an all-around idol who can sing and dance well?”

 Chen Xiaoyong asked.

Used the provocative method, which is most effective for young traffic stars.

Wang Cheng looked at the book and shook his head: "I don't want to!"

Forehead…

Chen Xiaoyong fell silent again, feeling helpless when facing Wang Cheng, so he reluctantly said: "Then you will always be a behind-the-scenes creator and backup dancer?"

Wang Cheng nodded: "Well, why not?"

 This has no impact on him.

 Whether it’s front or behind the scenes, it’s all work.

There is no need to sing, it is a bit more relaxed, as long as the money is enough and it does not affect your plan to buy a house.

 In Wang Cheng’s eyes, life is only divided into two categories: work and rest, and there is no division between types of work.

 What kind of job it is, it makes no difference to him.

 Singing or not, there is naturally no difference.

 Chen Xiaoyong fell silent. He had no experience and didn't know what to say at this time. He could only stand there and look at Wang Cheng.

Wang Cheng ignored Chen Xiaoyong and just looked at the book. After reading for a while, he realized that Chen Xiaoyong had not left yet. He glanced at the other person and asked lightly: "Is there anything else?"

Chen Xiaoyong was stunned for a moment, and then said hurriedly: "It's okay."

never mind?

Then let’s go!

Wang Cheng just glanced at Chen Xiaoyong, but his meaning was already expressed clearly.

Chen Xiaoyong also suddenly understood that this meant seeing off the guests, and tried his best to persuade him: "Well, then I'll leave first. However, Wang Cheng, as an agent, I still suggest that you improve yourself." With your singing skills, you are only nineteen years old, and you still have a lot of time and opportunities to improve yourself and make up for your shortcomings, so that you can go further in the future... Even if you don't renew your contract with the company, you will still be in the industry in the future. What’s inside is that with your dancing and musical talents, as well as your appearance and charm, if you strengthen your singing skills, your future achievements will definitely be limitless…”

"Moreover, Wen Yixiao is your direct competitor now. You will definitely be your opponent on the Tomorrow Idol stage. If she targets your singing weakness and keeps showing off her singing talent, by then Sometimes you might lose to her..."

Wang Cheng asked calmly: "Why should I go on the Tomorrow Idol stage to become her opponent?"

Chen Xiaoyong, who was about to turn around and leave, was stunned again, turned to look at Wang Cheng again, and said strangely: "The five champions of popular talent shows and variety shows can all be on the Idol of Tomorrow stage. You will definitely be able to bring Huang Bin and the others with you." If you win the Spring and Summer stage, you will have a spot on the Idol of Tomorrow. Wen Yixiao will definitely win the Happy Girls. Her popularity and strength are very strong, and she will be the most popular contestant after you. You are both on the stage of tomorrow’s idols, you are definitely the strongest opponent, you don’t want to lose to her..."

Wang Cheng frowned slightly and asked again: "Why should I go on the Tomorrow Idol stage? I didn't sign a contract with them!"

ah?

Why?

 This is the stage that every debuting trainee and even every big-name traffic star wants to be on.

 Because this is the most popular variety show with the highest ratings every year.

 Once you step on this stage, you can become popular quickly and attract fans quickly...

Who doesn’t want to go?

Every spot on the stage has been taken up. Even the seats in the audience seats next to the stage are extremely precious, because you can also appear in the audience seats, and even interact with the performance trainees on the stage, and you can also get extreme benefits. High attention.

 This is already the consensus in the circle, and it is also the instinct of every traffic trainee and traffic star...

 No one has ever thought about why I want to go up, only how can I get up!

Now Wang Cheng's question made Chen Xiaoyong confused again. He didn't know how to answer and explain!

After a few seconds of silence, Chen Xiaoyong asked: "So, Wang Cheng, you don't want to perform on the Tomorrow Idol stage?"

Wang Cheng asked again: "Why do you want to go up?"

Chen Xiaoyong was speechless: "Everyone wants it!"

 Wang Cheng shook his head: "That doesn't include me! Why should I go without signing a contract?"

 It’s not his job, why should he do it?

 Chen Xiaoyong felt a little confused, thought for a while and said: "When the spring and summer programs are over, Idol of Tomorrow should find the company to sign a performance contract..."

 Wang Cheng: “Let’s talk about it then!”

Chen Xiaoyong hummed, and hurriedly said goodbye and left. If he continued to speak, it would be even more embarrassing if he remained silent.

 Furthermore, he did not dare to talk to Wang Cheng anymore for fear that Wang Cheng would be angry.

Wang Cheng watched Chen Xiaoyong leave and didn't care.

It doesn't matter to him whether it's Tomorrow's Idol or the like. As long as he signs a contract, whether it's Tomorrow's Idol with the highest ratings, or Northwest TV's Tianshan Date and Tarim Life, which few people watch, he will fulfill the contract and perform the show. The show, the interview interview.

The next day, news came out from Xiangnan Satellite TV that the ratings of "Happy Girls" exceeded 2.5, which made the entire variety show circle pay attention.

Wen Yixiao is indeed in the limelight, and there are hot discussions about her everywhere. She once again gained more than 3 million followers in one day, and the number of fans exceeded 16 million. Her popularity surpassed that of Wang Cheng and all other trainees in the same session. .

 Subsequently, the entertainment giant Penguin Entertainment behind her once again spent a lot of resources, touting her singing skills and musical talents, and wanted to help her create a persona of a musical talent.

However, Wen Yixiao then personally called the person in charge of publicity at Penguin Entertainment to communicate. She gave up the persona of a musical talent and only promoted her singing talent...

Wen Yixiao said: "I didn't write the song, create it, or participate in the production. I just covered a song. What kind of talent do you think I am? The copy was immediately withdrawn."

Without saying anything, the other party directly changed the copy and began to praise Wen Yixiao’s singing talent, describing him as the most talented young singer in the traffic era.

Many people have begun to compare the strongest female trainee Wen Yixiao with the strongest trainee Wang Cheng. Both of them are very popular new trainees. When compared together, it is easy to cause controversy. If there is any controversy, then there will be controversy. There is a lot of popularity, so many self-media people have begun to hype the two of them.

Wang Cheng paid no attention to the information from the outside world. He just did what he should do these days. He worked when he needed to work and took a break when he needed to get off work.

Even Huang Bin, Mo Bailin, and other people in the program team have mentioned to him if they want him to sing together. If his singing skills are not good, he can just sing a few lines. Anyway, it is a recording studio...

 However, Wang Cheng ignored it.

 Time flies, the new January has begun, and the recording of the new spring and summer program has been successfully completed!

　　Broadcasting will begin soon.

 The entire program team, except Wang Cheng, was under a lot of pressure.
