Chapter 635 Talented Fans

As we all know, the Red and White Songs Contest is probably the most important stage party in Japan, and its status is roughly equivalent to that of China's Spring Festival Gala.

Without real talent, you can't get on this stage. The threshold set for stars outside of Japan is frighteningly high.

Combined with Japan's status in the Asian music scene, a set of self-consistent unspoken rules has long been formed - whoever can cross this invisible threshold and step onto the Red and White Songs Contest is basically equivalent to gaining recognition and respect from the Japanese music scene, which means getting the biggest piece of the puzzle of "Asian superstar".

It can be said that the qualification to perform on this stage is roughly equivalent to a heavy trophy.

In Zhou Hao's memory, the Chinese singers who were able to perform at the Red and White Songs Festival on Earth in his previous life were almost all superstars. If they were not famous enough, they could not enter at all.

Although the status of the Japanese music scene has declined significantly in recent years as the market weight has shifted, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse, and the basic base is still there.

Countless singers from Hong Kong, Taiwan and the Mainland want to step onto this stage and add the most dazzling achievement to their medal books.

However, in fact, it has been a long time since singers from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong and Macau appeared on the Red and White Songs Festival. The last time a Chinese face appeared on that stage was exactly eleven years ago.

Of course, there are various complicated off-site factors that interfere with this, but the overall decline of the Chinese music scene is an indisputable fact, which has led to everyone almost forgetting that this happened.

But now, Xu Lingyue has broken this deadlock with a masterpiece album, bringing Chinese singers back into the Red and White Song Festival's field of vision.

This is undoubtedly big news for the entire Chinese music scene.

Even Xu Lingyue herself was a little confused, "Do you think I should go?"

"Go, why not?" Zhou Hao immediately replied: "Such a good opportunity to go to sea, why should we give up? We don't want to shamelessly take the initiative to find them to take advantage of the opportunity, but now that they have taken the initiative to invite you, there is no need to refuse."

"Since your goal is not limited to the Chinese music scene, you will have to take this path sooner or later."

Xu Lingyue pondered for a moment and nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

However, after taking on this job, Xu Lingyue's year-end schedule became a bit busy - the Red and White Song Festival is usually scheduled on the last day of each year in the Gregorian calendar.

Before that, it will definitely take some time for adjustment and practice.

Then Xu Lingyue has to participate in the Spring Festival Gala, which also requires a lot of time to participate in rehearsals. By then, she will probably have to fly back and forth, which will be exhausting.

After Xu Lingyue made the decision, the studio immediately began to spread related news.

As expected, social media exploded instantly.

"?!!"

"Shit, Anko is going to the Red and White Song Contest?"

"Brilliant!"

“66666, this is truly a return to the top.”

"Stop talking nonsense. Back to the top? She wasn't this awesome before. This time she's setting a new record!"

"Okay, now we can stop arguing about whether Anko is a diva or not."

"There was no suspense in the first place. The performance of the album "As Wish" alone is enough to make him a god. Who dares to disagree?"

"It's a different era now, but we're still talking about the Red and White Song Contest. It's already outdated, isn't it? It's not convincing at all."

"It's obvious that they have their eyes on the Chinese market, so they just want to sell it well."

"See? There are people upstairs who are dissatisfied." "Hahahaha... they are just a few stubborn clowns. Unfortunately, it's useless to be stubborn. Xu Lingyue's current status in the music industry is no longer something that can be slandered by Internet trolls."

"Don't waste your time talking to them. Just ask where can I watch the Red and White Song Contest?"

"Same question, can you please give me a way to make good people live a peaceful life!"

"..."

Half a day after the news was made public, the entry #Xu Lingyue was invited to the Red and White Songs Festival# unsurprisingly became a hot search.

Many young fans have no idea what this is and are confused. Weddings and funerals? What the hell is this?
After a closer look, I realized how valuable this stage is, and then I also joined the ranks of those who praised it.

Anyway, as long as you can go out to sea and show off your power, you are awesome!

In any case, it is better than those who only know how to cheat and make money in the domestic entertainment industry!

Penguin Music also keenly sensed this wave of traffic and immediately put "As Wish" on the homepage of the APP.

"As Wish", whose sales had just begun to decline, also ushered in its third wave of sales rebound.

Those familiar names also began to appear on Penguin's hot song chart.

Looking at those song titles that once dominated the entire September and October, a group of fellow singers felt trembling, as if they were back in the late autumn when the songs were dominated by the charts...

With the help of this wave of traffic, the sales of "As Wish" officially exceeded 10 million!
Even in today's era of data explosion, selling an album for 10 million is an extremely exaggerated achievement. If we take stock of the 10 million club in the entire Chinese music scene, there are only a handful of people in it!

Almost all of them were superstars from ancient times, who had accumulated sales of tens of millions by relying on years of hot sales.

Xu Lingyue's album "As Wish" achieved sales of tens of millions in less than half a year!

What is terror?
What is cheating?
What is unbelievable?
This sales volume directly made colleagues in the entire Chinese music scene feel despair.

Just like a certain sprinter’s 9.58-meter record of seconds, it is an almost impossible challenge for a normal person.

The only person who has a chance to break this record may be Xu Lingyue himself!
At this time, the most embarrassed people were the several Giegie sisters who crossed over to sing.

Because even though Xu Lingyue's records were selling like crazy, her songs couldn't even make it into the top ten on the singles sales chart...

The top ten singles are all from popular celebrities, with sales of hundreds of millions at the very least.

But when I look at those song titles again…what the hell?
I've never heard of it!

Anyone with a discerning eye can tell where the data for these songs comes from.

Originally, the female data workers of several fan clubs were working diligently to help boost sales and get on the charts, but now they have all become obedient and dare not mess around anymore.

At this juncture, the higher the sales of Sister Giegie's singles, the more clownish they will appear.

There is no other way but to avoid the limelight for the time being.

However, it was still a little too late, and the backlash came as expected - a fan circle girl suddenly posted a sensational update on Weibo:
"Is this Xu Lingyue really that great? She can't even make it into the top ten on the super topic list, and she can't even make it into the top fifty on the real-time popularity ranking on the Internet. She's far worse than our Junjun. If she can be called the queen of heaven, wouldn't Junjun be the king of heaven?"

It was originally just a small Weibo post from one fan, but after being forwarded crazily by people who love fun, it instantly exploded the entire Weibo.

The level of his performance was so amazing that even the trolls and the online army were shocked. In front of talented players, hard work really doesn't count...
