Huayu: Starting from the top talent show

Chapter 334: I can tolerate scolding Zhou, but I can’t scold Shen Juan

The launch of Old Town Road Remix is bound to bring visible gains to Old Town Road, which has already been performing very well.

Maybe after the initial fan enthusiasm for Leviathan's launch dies down, it will start to dominate the charts like it did in the original time and space.

But let’s just dominate the charts.

Anyway, no matter what, Shen Juan can obtain multiple benefits in terms of economy, streaming data and popularity.

The streaming hit that even American elementary school students can sing and the Billboard 2019 singles champion are no joke.

This time, Shen Juan seems to have broken through the circle with this song in a more down-to-earth way that caters more to the general public's musical aesthetic. It goes without saying that after the popularity of the Remix version of Old Town Road ferments, Shen Juan's fame and popularity in the United States will reach a considerable level.

Although for those professionals in the music industry, this song may indeed be a bit low-brow to some extent.

To put it bluntly, the principles behind TikTok hits like Old Town Road are the same as those Douyin hits we watch here.

It's a magical brainwashing, but it somehow feels low.

But it had no effect on Shen Juan.

Anyway, this song was not written by him. He was only responsible for singing the chorus, attracting traffic to the younger brother, and then lying at home collecting money.

In short, he was just a passenger.

Even if there are music critics who claim that "everyone else is drunk but I am sober" or who want to get some black traffic and want to go against the public's aesthetic taste and criticize the production level of this song, they cannot criticize him.

After all, he was just working with a young brother he liked to make big money. What was wrong with that?
Look at my Underrated, look at my Leviathan.

That's me, kids!

I should be number one on all the lists!
What if the rise of Old Town Road is unstoppable?

Ok, Durant showed him the way.

Although the Warriors had already won the championship before he joined the Warriors, he was the core player of the Warriors!

Look at his accolades, man!
Two FMVPs are enough to explain it all!
Similarly, everyone will mistakenly think that the popularity of Old Town Road is due to Shen Juan. After all, the song received mediocre response in the first few months after its release, until Shen Juan joined in and it took off. Shen Juan's recent Leviathan has broken many records in the music industry, so it is really hard not to have misunderstandings.

As for the subsequent remix version of "Mood" that he will join forces with Li Na and Bieber to form a trio when they are preparing to release a single?
That would explain it better.

You know, Nas is my brother and we have collaborated on many singles. Bieber and I have known each other for a long time. This guy is incredibly strong. I think the three of us can have great chemistry as a team. Sometimes it is difficult to make a decision. After many days and nights of thinking, I decided to bring my talent to "Mood". I can't wait to release the remix of "Mood". As for Tay and Ari, I wish them all the best in New York.

Of course, since we are going to form the BIG3, we naturally have to sort out who is James, who is Wade, and who is Bosh.

Check their stats!

Justin Bieber:

He is the top male singer with 1.1 million fans on Instagram, 6000 million listeners on his song "Sound of Supernatural", and 4500 million subscribers on his YouTube channel.

Shen Juan:
He is the second most popular male singer with 9600 million followers on Instagram. The daily growth rate is very impressive, and he is only one step away from breaking million.

The monthly number of listeners of "Sound Through the Sky" is 5800 million. Gonghe spent money to buy a lot of playlists for Shen Juan, which brought in many new listeners.

(Monthly listeners is an important indicator to measure the popularity of a singer, but its value is not as solid as the actual number of plays)

The number of subscribers to his personal YouTube channel is 4300 million, ranking second in the world, but the vast majority of his fans are from the Asia-Pacific region.

During this period, the growth in album sales, streaming data and personal fan base has been very encouraging.

The Leviathan effect is continuing to take effect!

As for the remaining Li Na fork, it can be ignored.

This guy is obviously a blue-collar Bosh.

He has little say in this team.

So the situation is now very clear.

Bieber, who had led his team to win the FMVP before, is the man who caused the league to have a meniscus collapse.

Shen Juan, who is known as the son of the Magic City, is young and not troubled by injuries, and he is the chosen one!

Beijing time, morning of April 4th.

As the saying goes, on Monday Monday, you are dying; on Tuesday Tuesday, you are half dead; on Wednesday Wednesday, your soul is gone.

Today is the day that is furthest away from the holiday and has the longest working hours, making most workers feel terrified.

However, for Zhou Ye, who is currently a junior at the Beijing Film Academy and has not yet officially graduated and entered the society, it is not a bad idea.

It's class anyway, so I can just take it easy.

Just as true skills are learned on the job, true acting skills are not learned in the classroom.

So instead of attending classes and learning knowledge seriously, she would rather focus her time and energy on other things.

For example, the research crew has already sent us the film script, and filming will officially start in Xiamen, Fujian in about twenty days.

The first movie she plays as the lead actress can't be ambiguous! She absolutely can't act worse than that super-manly and irritable sister!
Then
Pay attention to your boyfriend's every move in the United States.

Speaking of which, Juanjuan really did not break his promise or brag, and his Leviathan really went on a killing spree in the United States!

Especially when the album was first released, new hot news would appear almost every two hours.

Either Leviathan broke a certain historical record, or Shen Juan became the first in a certain data field.

Some time ago, the ticket sales website crashed due to the temporary official announcement of a surprise concert in London.

It can be said that good news comes one after another!
This makes the fans in China very happy!
More than 80% of the entertainment sections of major forums such as Weibo, Douban, Tieba and Hupu are discussing Shen Juan and Leviathan.

Fans of other groups collectively pretended to be dead or disguised themselves as passers-by to participate in the discussion, for fear that at this sensitive time, because of boasting about their idols, fans of the other groups would catch the opportunity to turn into lackeys and report them to the current "leader of the martial arts world" of the fan circle, the Spring Roll Gang, causing ridicule and laughter.

It can only be said that the confident Xiao Chunjuan is like a mountain, and the pressure he puts on other fans in the fan circle is too great.

Similarly, the pressure that Shen Juan puts on other popular stars and other singers in the domestic entertainment industry in terms of personal performance is too great.

It's so big that even the "GOAT of the Chinese music scene" Ba Ge is now embarrassed to call Shen Juan his "little brother" on Instagram.

Because Shen Juan was almost exactly the person he dreamed of, even more exaggerated and terrifying than the person he dreamed of.

Shen Juan entered the neon market that he could not enter, and his sales data were basically stable in the top five.

He swallowed his pride and tried every possible means to get into the white world, but Shen Juan also got in.

Moreover, it is not that Shen Juan tries to please those white people in order to gain social status, but those white people actively come to lick Shen Juan in order to gain benefits, and actively say good things about Shen Juan in front of the camera in an attempt to gain the favor of passers-by Alovers.

When WWE superstar John Cena was a guest on "The Late Late Show with Corden", he said that he was a loyal fan of Shen Juan. He also joked that he once tried to be his bodyguard but was totally unqualified and was not selected. He then gave a lot of praise and compliments that seemed objective and reasonable.

"I love everything this 20-year-old singer has done so far, because he is so popular and has been famous all over the world for a long time, which is a very rare and rare phenomenon of a pop star bursting into the sky, so I started to pay attention to Alex and listen to his music."

"It means that I actually fell in love with his music first, and then fell in love with the soul he put into his music. Then, what Alex did in real life also conveyed a lot of positive energy to the outside world, breaking those decadent stereotypes, which is exactly what the contemporary young people want."

"And he himself is also very passionate about charity. Not only that, even his fans can be motivated to join in. This is the real meaning and purpose. This is changing the world! This is so admirable! Alex and Alovers are changing the world!"

The heroine of "La La Land", the ex-girlfriend of the real-life Spider-Man, and the Oscar-winning actress "Stone Sister" Emma Stone also publicly stated that she is a big fan of Shen Juan. Her family bought a complete set of Leviathan physical albums for collection, and she also recommended her idol to her friends.

Oscar-winning actor Matthew McConaughey, the male lead of "Interstellar", once said that his 10-year-old son Levi is a super Alover. Some time ago, he brought his family to Coachella to watch Shen Juan's live performance. Passersby discovered and took photos of him and uploaded them to the Internet, which caused heated discussions. Although today is different from the past, Shen Juan no longer needs the recognition of these white superstars to establish his status.

But it is still hard for fans not to feel happy when they see so many stars who they don’t usually come into contact with support Shen Juan.

After all, no matter what, the recognition from celebrity peers is more valuable than that from ordinary passers-by.

In addition, the stage and recorded talk shows produced by Shen Juan in North America during this period have also feasted the domestic fans who are eagerly looking forward to more materials, and used this as an opportunity to spawn a series of secondary video works that have helped to continue to grow the popularity.

"Millions of fans take direct photos of Coachella's God-making scene", "It's not the wind that favors him, it's him that controls the wind!", "Those fans in Times Square who are so excited that they cry like crazy", "Shen Juan丨It's not idols and fans, it's us who redeem each other", "Welcome to the golden age of Leviathan".
有关于12号、19号两轮科切拉压轴舞台和14号与比伯互换身份趣味舞台的，有关于21号在纽约时代广场再一次引发万人空巷交通瘫痪的惊喜演出的，也有关于23号时代周刊百大人物峰会表演舞台的。

As a "star news figure" who is currently in the limelight in the global pop music scene, every stage performance produced by Shen Juan can create considerable popularity, and any news about Shen Juan can bring about a lot of topic discussion. The existence of Shen Juan and his fans has supported a large number of self-media and video bloggers around the world.

Especially the phrase used by the host of the Time 100 Summit when introducing the guest performer Shen Juan:
"The next guest to appear is the singer with the highest first-week album sales in history, phenomenal pop star and global idol Alex Shen! Alex is the revolution!"

It has become the new motto of countless Alovers.

A brand new star-chasing craze and a brand new trend.

Change, destiny?
Why not count?
No matter what others think or see, Alex has become the most precious memory of our generation as fans.

Of course, the news that attracted the most discussion and the most clicks on the entire network, as well as the most acclaimed news, was the song "Pasta" (New Rules) that Shen Juan improvised by taking the guitar handed to him by a street performer and singing it when he encountered a fan who had self-destructive tendencies due to his overweight appearance on the streets of New York.

This song expresses everything Shen Juan wants to tell his fans and encourages them to live bravely.

Especially this verse.
"Why do you keep scrolling through your phone and checking messages? You have to be the master of yourself and your life to live freely. Why bother too much about what others think of you? Get rid of them! Your world is yours to rule! I really hope she can clearly understand her own shining points instead of trying to play a fake person."

It moved countless fans to tears.

Although for Shen Juan, this song may just be something he played and sang casually, but for those fans who are in trouble and regard Shen Juan as their spiritual sustenance, who hope that Shen Juan can pull them out of the quagmire and who long for salvation, this song is no different from the gospel of salvation in the Bible.

Love yourself, don't be afraid of failure, don't care too much about what others think, you are good enough, you are the master of your life
Shen Juan repeatedly expressed and emphasized his outlook on life and values, and the Alovers who silently supported and loved him gradually understood the meaning of these words, grabbed the light that shone into their own desolate world, and then spread it to all parts of their own world, becoming better versions of themselves.

"After I fell in love with Alex, I didn't want to die anymore. I wanted to live on. Oh my god, my tears are about to flow."

"I hated myself, I didn't like the way I looked, I didn't like everything about me. That was the most difficult and struggling time in my life. Thank him for making me an Alovers, thank him for letting me see the beautiful things in this world, and thank him for letting me survive."

One after another, fans who were moved and touched recorded videos about how they fell in love with Alex and how they found salvation and hope from him and uploaded them to the Internet, attracting more and more Alovers to join the discussion, which gradually evolved into a large-scale team-building activity.

Even Zhou Ye, who is regarded by fans as the "sister-in-law" who can't wait to kill her, couldn't help but shed tears when she saw these highly empathetic video speeches and fan comments.

It turns out that without realizing it, he has become the spiritual sustenance and source of strength for so many people around the world.
Juanjuan is under a lot of pressure.
But Zhou Ye also knew that this was what idols were like.

The actual energy output is always greater than the energy you want to output, and the actual pressure you bear is always greater than the pressure you want to bear.

This is a natural law that cannot be changed.

So as a tired little angel, she can only show her lively, cheerful, positive and sunny side as much as possible.

Let Juanjuan feel the positive energy, happiness and joy every moment he is with her!

The mental outlook I display may be fake, but my care and love for him must be real!

Just like he once did.

Now it's my turn to take care of him and protect him.

You protect the world, I protect you.

At the same time, Tian Xiwei, who was participating in the third recording of "Longing for Life 3" in Xiangxi, was also taking time to pay attention to the news that Shen Juan recently sent back from the other side of the ocean.

Last year, when Shen Juan asked for leave, he asked Cai Xukun, who had just graduated from Idol Producer, to take his place. This year, considering that his current status no longer needs to be hidden, he directly called Xiaotian, who had a lot of energy but nowhere to use it, to serve as the best sixth person in the Mushroom House, and asked her to do farm work for him.

High emotional intelligence: Let her gain some exposure and traffic before the filming starts, which will help increase the box office (harem harmony).

Low EQ: Seeing her doing nothing all day and always chatting on Weibo, why not find her a class to attend, get a job!

Moreover, if Shen Juan doesn't want to continue recording "Longing for Love" and playing games with Leizi one day, he can rely on this relationship and his voice and influence in the "Longing for Love" program team and Mango TV to force Xiaotian in to replace him and give her a retirement variety show with stable exposure and traffic.

After all, he pushed Xiaoxiao to become a permanent member of Running Man, so he naturally cannot favor the other two, right?
(If you have a lot of energy, you have to use it to do farm work)

Return to the Mushroom House.
After another round of patrolling on Weibo as usual to make sure that no one dared to say bad things about him and Shen Juan for the time being, Xiaotian opened the forum and browsed the achievement post which had already exploded in popularity after it was posted and attracted a large number of netizens to watch or discuss.

Title: [How do you evaluate Shen Juan's second English album "Leviathan" which broke the record of first-week sales and topped the Billboard 200, while all fourteen singles from the album entered the Billboard Hot 100 and ranked 1-14? ]

Content: [Leviathan sold 357 million copies in its first week, and the previous number one was Adele's 338 with 25 million copies. ]

There is friendly discussion on the floor below.
[This is really awesome! Ah Dai's "25" was scary enough at the time, but I didn't expect Shen Juan to be even more powerful! When everyone's actual sales were sluggish, Shen Juan was able to set a new record against the trend. This really let the whole world witness the strong purchasing power of Alovers. 】

[Let's see how well it performs. Adele has sold 6 million copies in 800 weeks. Let's see if Shen Juan can break this record. But one thing is certain: Leviathan is definitely the IFPI's best-selling album in the world this year. I'm curious about how many hundreds of millions of dollars he can make from this album this year.]

[Leviathan is currently doing so well, what do you think is missing to make Shen Juan equal to the top five male players? ]

[Without time (data accumulation) and Grammy recognition, there is no need to rush for the former, but the latter feels difficult. 】

[Shen Juan has really ascended this time, but I feel that Leviathan’s most impressive achievement is actually the Sound of Heaven streaming media. All 14 songs exceeded million on the first day. Now that they have been online for almost two weeks, all of them have exceeded million again. I am afraid that it will be difficult for anyone to break this record in the next few years, except for himself. ]

[It’s mainly because of the publicity. I don’t know how much money Universal has spent on publicity in the past two months. I haven’t seen such a large-scale and organized publicity for many years. The last time was in 15 when Bieber’s “Purpose” sold 50 copies in the first week.]

Some people took the opportunity to stir up trouble and provoke a fight.
[In addition to the 357w in the US, there are also 40w in the UK, 20w in Germany, 18w in France, 7w in South Africa, 16w in Brazil, 20w in Australia, 27w in Canada, and other countries. Adding together, the total number of global sales in the first week is over million! Do you dare to shout now, you idiot? ]

【Wow! Before, I thought it was Jiao Jiao helping Shen Juan, but now I see, it was Shen Juan helping Jiao Jiao, hahahaha! I am really looking forward to the first week results of Jiao Jiao's new album. If they fail to beat Shen Juan, then Jiao Jiao and all Jiao Mi will lose face hahahaha! 】

[My two albums have surpassed Jiaojie's life in seconds. Jiaojie can't even hold on to her North American base now. What should I do?]

[The piglet who played the role of a cross-dresser and stirred up trouble has lost his household registration book! You must be very upset that your proudest record was broken by Shen Juan, hahaha! 】

There are also those who have finally waited for the right time to settle all the low-class people who had previously tied up and scammed Shen Juan.
【Wow! Ranking 1-14 on the singles chart are all mine, so where is our other Chinese twin star Kris? Is my phone not long enough to see the complete chart?】

[Now I am curious whether Leviathan can win the Grammy Award for Album of the Year next year. It seems that the word-of-mouth reviews are very good.]

[It's hard to say. After all, the Grammy Awards are hard to describe. Considering that Waljuan is a yellow race, it is even more difficult.]

[Don't worry, Master Lay will help. He said he would lead us to the world and conquer the Grammy jury. ]

[Jie Ba is so greedy that he is probably racking his brains at home trying to figure out how to get Shen Juan to take him to the United States.]

[With this achievement, the Master has probably already transferred the ownership of the Chinese music scene to his name. I am afraid I am still too modest. ]

[It's a mess. Sima Juan's grades are all inflated by the Filipino maids and Thai female workers. I don't know how many black people in the United States have given me dermatitis prescriptions. ]

Horse riding!
Seeing this comment, Tian Xiwei's temper flared up instantly. How dare you scold Shen Juan? How dare you? ! !
I am the only one who can scold the tired dog!

Who the hell are you to call him Sima Juan? You are so disrespectful to your aunt, I wish I could kill you! !

So he typed directly to the other party: [You Sima thing, Xiao Jianzhong's whole family are all evil beasts that were fucked by Philippine wild dogs! If you are sick, go get treatment! Don't be like a stinky maggot in the sewer and make sarcastic remarks here to embarrass yourself. If I were you, I would have remade you a new life long ago! ]

I can tolerate being scolded by Zhou Ye.

I can also tolerate scolding Cheng Xiao.

I might be able to tolerate being scolded.

But it is not okay to insult Cha Na’s pride or scold Shen Juan!
