Start with a pop song

Chapter 7: Listed
The next morning.

As soon as Song Dao opened his eyes, he received a system prompt:

[The host's reputation value has reached 300,000, and you can use the lottery function to draw at any time]

This surprised him.

In the previous novice period, the ratio of popularity to reputation was one to one.

After the novice period, the ratio is one hundred to one!

Although it is unclear how the system calculates popularity, it is certainly not like the novice period where each view counts as one.

There should be a complex system and algorithm.

In other words, the extra 200,000 reputations he gained overnight required at least 20 million popularity points!

This is really popular.

The kind of fire that goes beyond the circle.

The song "See Through Love, See Through You" can only be considered good among the Chinese pop songs on Earth in the previous life.

Even a little niche.

Many people may not have heard of it.

So the song is a good song, but it has never been so popular.

Putting it in a different era and a different world, driven by events, it actually produces a completely different chemical reaction.

This sudden "popularity" was somewhat unexpected for him.

It was originally just a song to activate the system and give the original owner a chance to vent his anger, but now it is likely to push him to the forefront of a storm that he can hardly control.

But now that things have come to this, there is no point in saying anything pretentious.

He has no regrets singing this song.

He just doesn't like being disturbed and doesn't care what others think.

As long as we don't get too involved in this topic in the future, this outrageous heat will gradually subside sooner or later.

Miao Xiu was indeed too harsh on the original owner. She was a typical gold digger and there was no way she could wash herself away from that.

Many of the evidences found by the resourceful netizens cannot even be found in his own memory.

It can be considered as punishment.

Although it was a bit cruel, she was not innocent at all.

So that's it.

No matter how much buzz there is on the Internet, it has nothing to do with him.

After washing up, I picked up my phone and opened the Penguin Music charts.

He wanted to see if, driven by this level of popularity, the song could quickly top the charts and bring in more revenue.

The roommate who spoke up for him actually didn't know that the original owner didn't have much money left when he was betrayed and broke up.

I have spent too much money on Miao Xiu in the past few years!

This is both the self-satisfaction of the bootlickers and the impulsive side of young people who spend money lavishly.

Plus Miao Xiu wants to be famous, even in her dreams!
Attending extracurricular training classes crazily and making all kinds of connections is also extremely exhausting.

Young people don’t understand how difficult it is to make money. They are conceited and always naively believe that they can earn more after spending all their money.

At this time, there was only more than 20,000 yuan left on the card.

Looks like a lot.

But in a place like Beijing where every inch of land is valuable, if you can't quickly earn income, you won't be able to hold on for long.

Miao Xiu also knew about this.

That's why we said those words when we broke up.

In her opinion, Song Dao was living off his savings like this, and his four years at college were the highlight of his life, and he had no future at all.

It’s better to sing in a bar than to make money by writing songs.

Anyway, I won’t be able to support her in the future.

Women, you have to rely on yourself.

Song Dao had just logged into Penguin Music, and before he clicked on the various charts in the rankings, he saw the song he had just uploaded last night on the recommended spot on the homepage!

At the top, first on the right!
You gave such a high recommendation?

The cover photo was of him singing on stage at the graduation party last night.

Thin body, handsome face.

Sitting on a high stool holding a guitar, he had a melancholy look in his eyes and exuded a faint sadness and loneliness.

A goose is a goose!

Whether on Earth or in this world, you can always take whatever you want!

Uh, wrong.

Not only is he good at grabbing traffic and gaining popularity, but he also finds photos so accurately and vividly.

Song Dao felt that he was quite calm last night.

It's just that kind of state is required to perform this sad love song.

I didn't expect to be captured with such an exquisite picture.

"Ok, Ok!"

A faint smile appeared on his face.

Everything else is empty, making money is the kingly thing.

Click on the music hall to enter the rankings, which contain various lists.

Rising Songs Chart, New Songs Chart, Hot Songs Chart, Musicians’ Original Songs Chart, and Popularity Index Chart.

Below are the mainland list, Guangdong list, Taiwan list, English region list, Fuso list and various special lists.

Although people say music is dead, in fact, a large number of new songs are created every day and uploaded to major platforms.

But it's hard to be like in the past -

There are new songs that are extremely popular every month, and there are battles between the gods every year. Even the kings and queens can fail if they are not careful.

It is very common and not surprising that the big guys cannot beat the newcomers.

It’s very difficult for a song to go viral nowadays!

There are only a few songs that can be remembered throughout the year, let alone classics.

Although classics need time to settle and accumulate, the problem is that it is a long life for current songs to be popular for more than three months.

Therefore, these charts are almost entirely dominated by old songs from more than 20 years ago.

Of course there are new songs, but they are basically all promoted by the companies behind the singers relying on their own resources through chart promotion.

There are three charts that you can log in to in See Through Love, namely the Rising Songs Chart, the New Songs Chart and the Musicians’ Original Songs Chart.

The hot song chart and popularity index chart are not good.

These two lists not only require a large amount of data support, but also require a long time to accumulate.

It’s not something that can be achieved in a short period of time.

He clicked on the rising list first, and since it only showed the top 100, he chose to read from the bottom up.

Scrolling the screen, you'll find that either the songs are timeless classics, or they've suddenly become popular again after being covered by a top internet celebrity.

Song Dao flipped through the top 50 songs from the bottom to the top, but still couldn't find his song.

I thought to myself, is it possible that she is not on the list?

Could it be that the terrifying popularity brought by that video has not radiated here at all?
Or is it that the omnipotent netizen failed this time and didn’t notice it?

This isn’t right. Penguin has recommended it on the homepage, and his handsome photo is clearly displayed there, how could he not be discovered?

I continued to scroll up and finally saw "See Through Love and See Through You" at number 27!

You can’t see the specific download data here. If you want to see it, you need to log in to the creator platform.

But this ranking has already surprised Song.

After all, he is working alone as an independent musician.

If it weren't for this wave of popularity, it would be amazing to be able to enter the top 100 in such a short time.

Those at the top are almost all works by the most popular singers at the moment, backed by large entertainment companies.

Usually, people try to get on the charts regardless of the cost, and all they want is popularity and fans' attention.

With popularity, you can take on endorsements, hold fan meetings, appear on variety shows, and even act in film and television dramas.

He didn't care about the little money he made from music. He clicked on the new song list.

At first glance, there are quite a few English songs in the top 20.

Today, Xia has become a world superpower, and a large number of Western singers have come here to develop their careers.

The original owner had many nice new foreign songs in his memory.

It can be regarded as injecting some fresh blood into this lifeless music scene.

This time he chose to flip from top to bottom.

Soon I found my song at number 23.

The singer's name is displayed at the back——

Song arrived.

Duration: 4:38.

The album column is empty.

Looking at the original list again, it ranks 19th!
"call!"

Song Dao breathed a sigh of relief.

A face full of joy!
Let it be the cusp of the storm.

never mind!

It's only been one night.

No company, no team, no agent!
Song Dao was pleasantly surprised and even a little unbelievable to achieve this result.

Under normal circumstances, this song will slowly ferment over time, and after being covered by various internet celebrities and attracting traffic, it is still possible for it to climb onto the charts in the current environment.

But after all, it is a bit niche, so it is probably difficult to get a good ranking.

It turned out that in just one night, or to be exact, only seven or eight hours, I was able to achieve such an outrageously good result.

Speaking of which, I really have to thank the video that became a hot topic last night!
Thank you for this overwhelming flow of traffic!
Then he noticed the comments section under the song.

After clicking it, I was speechless.

In other singers' comment sections, the topics either revolve around the song itself or the singer.

Either like it or criticize it.

Then the two sides started to fight each other.

He is in a good situation, most of them are just civets who come to watch the fun!

A few people wrote short essays out of empathy.

There were some people who praised the song, but they were not many.

"Come and see the wonderful man who spent millions on his girlfriend who he never fucked (dog head)!"

"A close look at the male contestant who is currently ranked first on this year's list of tragic relationships (funny face)."

"I'm curious how you managed to be so handsome and spend money, but in the end you got dumped without even sleeping with her?"

"You're so handsome, brother! Can we meet each other?"

“Why can’t I get the point of this song? Can anyone tell me what’s so good about it?”

"Congratulations to the poster. If you don't get it, it means you are still young and this song is not suitable for you. Go home and watch In the In the Garden."

"Good night Makabaka."

"Is that gossip true? Did I really spend millions on my ex-girlfriend? And they never slept together?"

"Really? Didn't you see what his roommate revealed? He's definitely an unlucky guy. But this song might help him make back all his money and become famous, so it's not a loss. Hahaha..."

"Support me until I wake up and kill my ex-girlfriend!"

Faced with all kinds of teasing, Song Dao twitched his mouth speechlessly.

However, there are also many people who truly feel the same way and leave messages to tell about the betrayals they have experienced.

Just flip down and you'll find a lot of emotionally charged text.

These are his real "target customer" group!

Song was too lazy to read those short essays.

Poor couples have many worries. When you are poor and powerless, don't meet someone too amazing.

The charlatan in "Dying to Survive" said it well: There is only one disease in this world, and that is poverty!

I exited Penguin Music, opened the creator backend, and looked at the data with anticipation.

The smile on his face suddenly became brighter.

Still a bit shocking.

The data is unexpectedly good!

According to the platform rules, most songs from ordinary audio sources do not need to be purchased unless the copyright holder requires it, and anyone can listen to them.

But this is just to ensure its own user base.

Anyone who likes to listen to music knows that the sound quality is not much different from the videos on the website.

If you want to make your ears comfortable, you have to become a member.

If you want to download to a professional player, or listen to songs with the highest sound quality to make your ears more pleasant, you need to become a high-level member!
In short, it’s all kinds of cutting.

Of course, this is for consumers, but for platforms and creators, it can maximize benefits.

Generally speaking, people who like to listen to music will spend a few hundred dollars to get the highest level membership as long as conditions permit.

In this way, whether you listen on the platform or download it to other carriers, you can hear the best sound quality at a relatively favorable price.

If non-members want to listen to songs with the highest sound quality, there is only one way - just spend money!
The purchase price is also relatively high, one dollar per song.

The member data is not available yet, but the purchase data of non-members is updated in real time.

There are more than five thousand people!
It may not seem like much, and it cannot be compared with the exaggerated popularity of tens of millions, but it is actually quite amazing!

The fact that non-members spend money to purchase the app basically means that most of them don’t use Penguin Music to listen to music at all!
Song Dao also found evidence in some of the comments just now.

Many people said that this was the first time they made a contribution to Penguin.

The reason is that after listening to this song, I felt the same way and came to support poor Brother Gou.

Brother, dog, nothing wrong.

“No wonder it was given a special front page promotion.”

Song Dao suddenly realized.

Being able to capture traffic is one thing, but adding a large number of new users and generating real economic benefits is more important for the platform!

After all, the end of traffic is monetization.

Although as the popularity decreases, the number of people who choose to purchase and download will drop sharply.

But as long as this kind of song goes viral, people will always listen to it!
After all, there are people who suffer from broken hearts every day, and there are also people whose memories are brought back when they hear a few lines of the lyrics.

In the long run, taking into account various advertising revenues and the incentive policies given by the platform, Song Dao believes that it is not a problem for this song to generate over a million yuan in platform revenue alone!
From this perspective, what netizens said makes sense.

His ex-girlfriend spent millions on him over four years, and then he made the money back with a song about her.

“It feels a bit fatalistic…”

"Good songs still make money, no matter what era!"

In his world, there were Two Butterflies, Mouse Loves Rice and then Guangdong Love Story, all of which were “fierce songs” that broke the circle.

Make big money!

If he is willing to take advantage of this popularity to participate in some variety shows and do some commercial performances, even if he can't make a living from just one song, he will definitely make a lot of money in a short period of time.

But this idea was quickly dispelled.

Song Dao didn't want to take jobs by hyping up his relationship when he was still young and feeble.

Besides, other people may not think highly of him. He would be bored if he just serves as a background and is ridiculed by others.

He now has 300,000 reputation in his hands and is very rich!

And it continues to increase over time.

Even if the system is a rip-off, it should be able to pull out a few decent "catty" songs out of sixty times, right?
Although he disagrees with the system's song classification, one thing is certain: the quality of the songs provided is not bad!
So just follow the steps and take it slow.

After all, he is young now.

Just graduated from college.

In the prime of life!
-
Thank you Yu for the reward, thank you Xiao Yu for the reward of 10,000 yuan, and thank you brothers.
