Have you ever been a celebrity? Why are you writing about entertainment?
Chapter 100 The Power of Technology, Isn't it amazing?
Chapter 100 The Power of Technology, Isn't it amazing?
"So you're making fun of yourself to... face your weaknesses with the determination to turn self-reflection into motivation, and set an example for the entertainment industry of knowing your shortcomings and striving forward, and looking to the future with determination?"
"No, I just want to go fishing."
Qi Luoan was speechless as he looked at the commentary from the central media, which closely followed current events. Yu Wei had been brought in by the authorities to endorse him.
In fact, his novel was praised by name a few days ago, which shows that Yu Wei has already come into the view of the authorities.
This is inevitable; when a celebrity's influence reaches a certain level, they will attract attention, which is a reflection of their social value.
However, Yu Wei took it all in stride...
In entertainment novels, the protagonist always reaches this point, partly to enhance the protagonist's legitimacy and authority, and partly to make the protagonist's image more positive.
In fact, Yu Wei also agrees with this. As a public figure, it is appropriate to assume some social responsibility and to convey positive meaning and energy.
However, novels are novels and reality is reality. In novels, the protagonist can escape the quagmire of capitalism by getting in touch with the government, and can achieve a higher status by getting involved with the government.
The reality is, you can only go this far, you can't go any further.
The plot of using one's "red attribute" as a get-out-of-jail-free card to recklessly court death is fine to read in novels, but don't actually believe it.
Even a favored minister can't impeach all the other officials...
So Yu Wei's idea is to do your best, regardless of other things. He will help if needed, but he shouldn't take himself too seriously.
It is acceptable to share the ruler's burdens, but one must not become arrogant because of the emperor's favor.
If anyone's feelings are the most complicated right now, it's definitely the trolls who are crying at the grave of the conspiracy theorist on the "Round Head Old Age" account.
Do people really anonymously smear themselves these days?
The key point is that they actually believed it and regarded the old man as the spiritual leader of the "anti-Yu" movement. At this point, they were told that the person was Yu Wei.
What about the marks they leave in the comments section?
The haters didn't even have time to hate Yu Wei for playing them; all they wanted to do was quickly go back and delete all that stuff...
Looking back, the content they posted was so funny that they felt awkward and uncomfortable looking at it for even a second longer.
This feeling is like calling for your mom while playing a video game, only to actually encounter your real mother. The ultimate level of emotional breakdown isn't hysteria, but rather wanting to cry but being unable to shed a tear.
Yu Wei's move was too ruthless.
Who would dare to criticize him after this? Who knows if the netizen who speaks freely and criticizes you so eloquently is actually him?
There aren't many celebrities as good at networking as him.
Do you still use that account?
Qi Luoan casually searched for the short video account of the round-headed old man. The account, which used to have only a handful of viewers in a single live stream, now has 120,000 followers.
Some of them came to join in the fun right after the show aired, but many others were haters who came after the place was turned into a "cyber funeral parlor".
Although the show "Music Blind Box" is popular, only a minority of viewers are willing to watch variety shows, and many netizens probably don't know about the alternate account yet.
Haters are even less likely to come to watch Yu Wei's show; those who are out of the loop are probably still using his advanced age as a rallying cry, and tomorrow the internet will be in chaos...
"It's no use."
After the recording of the second episode ended, Yu Wei never logged into this account again. It was just a perfunctory job, and its task was already completed.
"Give it to me if you don't need it, and I'll help you manage it."
This idea just popped into Qi Luo'an's head. She had just searched for Yu Wei on short videos and found quite a few problems.
Yu Wei is very popular, but his account only has a few short singing videos. No matter how popular he is, netizens have nowhere to discuss him.
Don't underestimate the level of discussion on short video platforms. As a national-level application, it has a huge user base, far exceeding that of Weibo.
For public figures, keeping to themselves and their own private world is ultimately a minor matter; the most important thing is to have influence that extends beyond their immediate circle and even breaks through existing boundaries.
Yu Wei has a good public image, and his novels and songs have also gone viral. However, he doesn't manage his accounts well, so he can't retain his popularity. Instead, he gets piggybacked on by internet celebrities, bloggers, and marketing accounts.
It's not appropriate for celebrities' official accounts to post too much irrelevant stuff, so a secondary account is just right. Qi Luoan can occasionally cut out some fun things and post them there.
At least the attention was diverted to Yu Wei, giving netizens some room for discussion.
For example, the plot of the novel... well, there's not much to say about the plot.
Yu Wei was somewhat surprised to hear this. In fact, the company had also asked Liu Ning to convey the matter of managing the short video account, but he really didn't have much time.
Maintaining daily updates is not easy. Where does he find the time to shoot and edit videos? Those singing short videos were all just casually filmed by him.
"Account revenue is split 50/50."
He made a sarcastic remark, which was a tacit agreement. The account was just sitting idle anyway, so it would be good if Qi Luoan could post some short videos to maintain its popularity.
Income doesn't really matter. Self-media bloggers make money through live streaming and advertising. They don't earn much from video data, so it's fine to give her a fee for her hard work.
Because of Yu Wei's incident, the "Music Blind Box" program itself was not discussed much, and even the wonderful performances that followed lost the audience's interest.
There's no reason for so much online shock. Everyone's energy is limited. They've just finished eating the gossip, and even if Xianle comes along later, they won't be interested in listening.
The rest of the program wasn't very interesting for Yu Wei and Qi Luoan, since they were both on set at the time.
"Invisible Wings" only became popular on the second day. When netizens who were tired of following the gossip rewatched the show that night, they discovered that there was a big surprise hidden at the end.
To be honest, when people see a blind girl singing on stage, their first reaction is sympathy, and they don't think it's necessary to criticize her even if she doesn't sing well. But when Lin Yuting opened her mouth, the audience realized they were wrong. She didn't have a fancy singing style or a clever vibrato; she only had a kind of sincere gentleness.
Sincerity is the sure winner.
The moment the chorus arrived, the flood of emotions finally broke through the dam. They heard Lin Yuting's determination in the song, as if they had personally witnessed the other person's transformation.
"I know I've always had a pair of invisible wings."
In the video, Lin Yuting suddenly raised her head, her neck taut in a stubborn arc. Her voice wasn't loud, but it was like a needle piercing the clouds, nailing the abstract hope in the song into the curtain of reality.
Upon hearing this, their previous sympathy had vanished, leaving only shock and awe in their hearts.
The entire song's performance corresponds to Lin Yuting's state of mind, and everyone witnessed her transformation from confusion to perseverance and finally to her metamorphosis.
Compared to those empty slogans of motivation, this feels like true hope and a miracle...
As the last notes faded away, Lin Yuting's chest continued to rise and fall. The screen went dark, and the program came to an end, but those invisible wings had successfully landed in everyone's hearts.
There was a segment in the show "Music Blind Box" where Lin Yuting sang live. She sang quite well, but it was nowhere near as good as the final stage performance.
What is the magic of Yu Wei's song that allows her to make such great progress in such a short time?
"Is this the music industry's magician? The songs he writes can improve singers by a whole new level."
"I already told you not to call him a mage, call him a priest."
"This is China, and we call ourselves the Music Masters."
Netizens may be getting abstract, but "Invisible Wings" is undeniably good. The song has a gentle and catchy melody, and its simple and easy-to-sing nature has led to its rapid spread.
When Yu Wei finished writing the lyrics and looked at it again, the song had already become a hit in the cover song world. Although none of them could sing the feeling of Lin Yuting's transformation, none of them were bad.
This song is difficult to sing well unless you can't sing it at all, or your voice is completely unsuitable...
He was browsing through song recommendations when he stumbled upon the question Meng Han asked him in the second episode.
If it's not tailor-made for me, does that mean I can still sing it?
The production team also included this line in the final cut. Meng Han said it before singing, but watching it after the song made it even more entertaining.
"I support Teacher Meng singing, it will definitely sound great."
"I want to hear it too. Such a gentle song is perfect for a tough guy like him."
"Now we have no choice but to listen."
"Scared.jpg"
Coincidentally, Yu Wei also wanted to listen, but Teacher Meng Han is probably still recuperating, so he might have to miss the fourth episode, let alone sing.
Just as netizens were enjoying the spectacle, a user named "Last Night Memorial" suddenly suggested using AI.
If Meng Han doesn't have time to sing, then they can train an AI based on Meng Han's voice, and then listen to it however they want.
What era are we living in that we're still listening to traditional songs?
"genius!"
Yu Wei often sees AI singing, which satisfies her curiosity, and some of the more advanced language models actually sing quite well.
The idea quickly gained everyone's support; the idea came about that very day, and the song was released that evening.
The moment Yu Wei clicked into the video, it was too late to leave. The time was too short, and the AI model's voice didn't sound particularly like Meng Han, but it still made him lose his composure as soon as it started speaking.
The hoarse voice mixed with electronic music rolled across the wasteland like sand, and the moment it opened its mouth, it forged the feather-light melody of Lin Yuting's version into steel.
Every spitting sound was like a horse's hoof shattering an icy river. When the three powerful words "I know" burst forth from the video, Yu Wei couldn't help but laugh.
Isn't the power of technology amazing?
However, he didn't have time to gloat for long before he saw himself in the comments section.
"Teacher Meng Han sang Yu Wei's songs. Could we let Yu Wei also sing some of Teacher Meng Han's rock songs?"
This message quickly gained everyone's support. You know what, I've known Yu Wei for so long, and he's never actually sung anyone else's songs.
In addition, Yu Wei has many new songs and a rich source of sound. Before long, his AI singing model was created, and the song chosen by the blogger was Meng Han's "Smog".
“Yu Wei knows he was wrong. 'Smog' is indeed better than 'Blue Lotus,' and there is audio evidence to prove it.”
"This is Yu Wei personally proving that 'Smog' is a complete mess."
The comments section is buzzing with activity, with some netizens already requesting the song "Yu Wei Sings Everything".
People used to listen to whatever was available; people later on search for whatever they want to hear; and now people can edit whatever they want to hear themselves.
They dared to make videos, but Yu Wei herself didn't dare to listen to them...
What's so gloomy about it?
There will be an extra update tonight.
