Huayu 2002, I'm going to dominate the music scene!

Throughout the entire meal, Julie's eyes never left Song Mo. She watched him pick up food, she watched him drink water, and she watched him talk to Guo Liang.

Angela Chang kicked her under the table several times before she calmed down a little, but she started again after only a few minutes.

Song Mo was used to it; he had seen many girls more enthusiastic than this when he was singing in bars.

He ate and drank as usual, chatted with Guo Liang about music arrangement, discussed publicity plans with Xu Yuan, and occasionally exchanged a few words with Angela Chang. He was completely at ease throughout.

It turns out that only when you're good-looking enough can you truly appreciate how proactive and enthusiastic a girl can be.

Angela Chang sat next to her assistant, watching her infatuated expression, and wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground.

She secretly glanced at Song Mo and, finding that he didn't care at all, breathed a slight sigh of relief.

The meal was generally quite relaxed. Julie has a good personality and quickly became familiar with Xu Yuan, Bi Xiaoshi, and the others.

Looking at Julie, who kept talking, Song Mo finally understood why Fu Mao had made her Angela Chang's assistant.

She is clearly much more worldly and down-to-earth than Angela Chang. If she were a star, she would definitely be a great comedian.

After dinner, Xu Yuan took the two of them back to the hotel, while Song Mo went back with Bi Xiaoshi.

There's nothing he can do; he hasn't bought a car yet. It's not that he can't afford one, but there's no need for him to.

Moreover, Bi Xiaoshi has already said that once the album is released, he will be provided with a car.

Julie and Angela Chang returned to the hotel, and their relationship seemed to be going well. Angela Chang asked, puzzled, "What have you been doing today?"

"Isn't this all for you? We've come to the mainland, so we should at least try to build a relationship with him. Besides, he's so handsome and single, I'm just having some fun with him," Julie said matter-of-factly.

"Is this how you try to build connections? This isn't Taiwan, don't scare people," Angela Chang said, rubbing her forehead.

"Do you think all these men are like Wallace Huo? That blockhead, last time I acted cute, he actually asked me if I had facial spasms." Julie gritted her teeth just thinking about it.

"Alright, stop with your sweet talk. We only have time this time, we can't stay long, we need to finish our work as soon as possible," Zhang Shaohan could only coax her.

"Don't worry, I know," Julie replied sullenly.

Song Mo, of course, had no idea about the intricacies behind this. He had been recording songs all day and was actually quite tired.

Many people think singing is easy, but long-term, repeated practice still requires a lot of physical strength.

After returning home, he quickly took a shower, and felt more refreshed afterward.

Since he couldn't sleep, he simply turned on his computer and browsed Tianya.

It turned out that people were still discussing the gossip about his love triangle with Gao Yuanyuan and Fan Binbin.

It can only be said that at this time, everyone was indeed lacking in everything.

They're still arguing about such trivial matters.

If this were in later generations, it would probably disappear into the internet within a day or two.

He also noticed that the music section on Tianya was actually quite lively at the moment.

He clicked on it and saw that most of the posts on the homepage were discussing the same topic: "Mice Love Rice".

"It's so catchy! I've been listening to it on repeat for three days straight!"

"Does anyone know what Ink Dot Studio is all about? I can't find it online."

"I cried listening to this; it reminded me of my first love. She used to call me 'Mouse' too..."

"Hey upstairs, was your first love a cat?"

"Stop arguing, does anyone have a high-quality MP3 download link? The audio quality of the one from Jiutian is a bit muddy."

Song Mo scrolled down, and there were so many posts that he was dizzy.

Some people are asking for the lyrics, some are trying to uncover the identity of the Ink Dot Studio, and some are debating whether the song is vulgar or sincere.

Some people have even set "I love you like a mouse loves rice" as their QQ signature.

He then went to Mop.com, which was even more lively than Tianya.

"Mice Love Rice" has long been a phenomenon here.

Someone is building a thread titled "One 'Mice Love Rice' every day, for our lost love," and it has already reached over three thousand posts.

Someone posted their own adapted lyrics, such as changing "I love you, I love you like a mouse loves rice" to "I love you, I love you like a cat loves fish," which was followed by a bunch of "hahaha" and "talented."

There's another post where the poster said that after listening to this song, he mustered up the courage to confess his feelings to the girl he'd had a crush on for three years, and he succeeded.

The comments below were full of "Congratulations" and "May you be blessed," and someone even said, "I'm going to confess my feelings too, and I'll play this song as background music."

Looking at the replies, Song Mo couldn't help but laugh out loud. These days, people still have a strong sense of being alive.

After browsing Mop, he went to check out 9Tian Music Network.

9Tian Music Network is currently the largest original music platform, known as the cradle of online singers.

"Mice Love Rice" has climbed to the top of this week's hot song chart, with "Two Butterflies" in second place.

The comments section has already been filled with over ten pages of messages.

"I came from Mop.com. This song is addictive; you can't forget it after just one listen."

"My girlfriend cried when she heard it. She said it was our song."

"Hey upstairs, is your girlfriend also named Rice?"

"If this song were released as a CD, I would definitely buy it."

Song Mo noticed that someone commented, "What exactly is this Ink Dot Studio? They've released several songs, and they all seem pretty good. Are they a legitimate company now?"

He smiled. Compared to the average solo online singer, his approach was truly professional.

He then opened the comments section of "Two Butterflies" and took a look.

This song is less popular than "Mice Love Rice," but it is still steadily gaining popularity.

The comments section, however, had a different feel, with fewer exaggerated cross-dressing or jokes.

A few people did ask, "Is this song also from Ink Dot Studio? The Flash animation looks a bit like it."

Several people replied below, "It seems to be from the same company."

Song Mo was quite satisfied with this. The reason why they had to produce flash animations in a unified manner was precisely to make Ink Dot Studio famous now.

He returned to Tianya and refreshed the page.

Several new posts have appeared on the homepage.

"Shocking! Members of Ink Dot Studio suspected to have been exposed, and it turns out they are..."

He clicked on the link and saw that the poster had written a lot of random things, and finally concluded that the lead singer of this studio was a very powerful singer.

These kinds of posts make you want to punch someone. Song Mo guessed that future UC editors probably learned this from them. He figured that An Ming's alternate accounts were deliberately creating topics.

He continued scrolling down and saw several more posts.

One of the posts caught his attention.

"Looking at the future of online songs through 'Mice Love Rice,' why do these kinds of catchy pop songs become so popular?"
