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

This post on Tianya is quite long. The author analyzes the song from its simple and straightforward lyrics to its emotional resonance, and finally concludes that the reason this song is popular is because it expresses the most basic view of love in the hearts of ordinary people: I love you, just like a mouse loves rice—simple, direct, and without beating around the bush.

Song Mo was still deep in thought. Was that really the case?

Someone replied below: "That's so true. These days, love songs are either melodramatic or pretentious. They're tiring to listen to. These kinds of songs are much more comfortable and don't require much brainpower."

Song Mo suddenly understood: a low-EQ way of saying it was "bubblegum pop".

A high-EQ way of saying it: It doesn't require much brainpower.

He couldn't help but chuckle, just then QQ suddenly started flashing.

It was a message from Anming: "Our songs are really popular. Mop is buzzing about them, and they've even reached number one on Jiutian. Plus, the homepage we set up earlier has over 50,000 views today."

Song Mo stared at the message, stunned for a moment.

Fifty thousand? That's quite a number. Song Mo hadn't expected these songs to spread so rapidly.

"Was all that publicity I did before just unnecessary?" Song Mo thought to himself with a self-deprecating smile.

However, he has no regrets about doing so. Since there are conditions to create a better promotional environment for these songs, he definitely has to do it.

You can't just release the song and wait around; that would be like waiting for a rabbit to run into a tree stump.

He quickly replied, "Okay, Brother An, I understand. Thank you for your hard work these past few days."

Anming, presumably sitting at his computer, quickly replied, "We're doing everything as we agreed before, it's not hard at all. By the way, you know what? These past few days, someone claiming to be from a record company got my QQ number from somewhere and asked if the singers at Ink Dot Studio had signed contracts. I said they had, and he didn't ask any more questions."

Song Mo was taken aback. A record company? Someone's already got their eye on them?

"Which company?" he asked.

"Century Flying, but after I refused, he ignored me."

Upon seeing the name Century Feile, Song Mo was somewhat surprised, not expecting that this company had set its sights on the online music market so early.

No wonder Xiangxiang, whom they signed in their previous life, became a sensation with "The Pig Song".

"If any record companies contact you again in the future, just refuse them," Song Mo said after thinking for a moment.

"I understand. I haven't been to Ocean Butterflies lately. How's your album coming along?"

"I'm recording songs now, and we've finished about half of it. It should be ready in about two weeks," Song Mo replied quickly. He had been spending most of his time on the album lately.

The songs "Love Song", "Special Person", "Summer", "Run Away", "Southern Girl" and "Jiangnan" have all been recorded.

Seeing Song Mo's reply, the girl next to An Mingchao shrugged and said, "See? I told you he was focused on making the album, but you insisted he was fooling around again."

Liu Yifei snorted, "Who knows if he's really working on an album? Sister Jinsha told me that he specially invited a girl from Taiwan to collaborate with him. You're his manager now, so you have to keep an eye on him."

"I can't even control you, how can I control him?" An Ming teased with a smile. Of course he knew about Angela Chang and that Song Mo had invited her to record "Happy Worship".

After having a meal at Song Mo's house last time, Liu Yifei became friends with those girls. Some time ago, when Jin Sha, Fan Binbin, and Gao Yuanyuan were still in Yanjing, the group went shopping together a few times.

However, during this period, Gao Yuanyuan, Jin Sha, and Fan Binbin all left Yanjing one after another, and she couldn't find anyone to hang out with, so she could only bother her brother.

"By the way, did you tell your mom about the music video we talked about last time?" Anming suddenly remembered what they had discussed last time.

"Is it the music video for 'Summer'? My mom agreed, but she said she has to go with it," Liu Yifei said softly.

She's never filmed a music video before, so she's quite interested in giving it a try.

"Fine, then. It's settled then. I'll let you know when the time comes." Anming nodded in satisfaction.

It was Song Mo's idea to have Liu Yifei film the music video for "Summer". An Ming thought it was a good idea for both of them, so he agreed to ask Liu Yifei. Now he has fulfilled his mission.

The next morning, Song Mo arrived at the dance studio arranged by the company. Zhang Shaohan was already there, standing in front of the mirror, doing stretches with the dance teacher.

She wore a tracksuit today, her hair was tied in a ponytail, and she looked more energetic than yesterday.

The dance teacher was a man in his thirties surnamed Zhou. He spoke with a slight southern accent and his movements were crisp and clean.

He demonstrated the dance moves in the intro to "Happy Worship," a style of dance from that era that couldn't compare to the K-POP of later generations.

The difficulty level is generally not that high, and in the song "Happy Worship," the movements designed by Teacher Zhou were even simpler.

It mainly consists of a few rhythmic movements, combined with body waves and arm swings, creating a strong sense of rhythm.

Song Mo followed along and quickly mastered the technique.

He had a very good foundation in his previous life, so with a little practice, the results were quite good.

Teacher Zhou glanced at him, somewhat surprised: "You've studied this before?"

"Just a little bit." Song Mo smiled and made up an excuse, "I was just dancing around randomly while singing at the bar."

Teacher Zhou nodded, didn't ask any more questions, and turned to look at Angela Chang.

Angela Chang stood in front of the mirror and tried to imitate the movements a few times, but her movements were noticeably stiffer.

Her physical coordination is average, and since she hasn't studied dance much, her wave dance looks robotic, and the range of her arm movements is also incorrect.

"Relax a little," Teacher Zhou walked over and helped her adjust her posture. "Don't shrug your shoulders, lower your center of gravity. Yes, that's it."

Angela Chang bit her lip and tried to follow along earnestly, but she still looked a little awkward.

The way she looked in the mirror was like a little penguin trying to imitate human movements.

Song Mo watched from the side and couldn't help but chuckle.

When Angela Chang saw him smiling in the mirror, her face flushed instantly. She bit her lip and said, "Don't laugh, I'll dance well."

"I wasn't laughing." Song Mo quickly straightened his face. "You did a good job. Do it again."

Angela Chang glared at him, then turned her head and continued practicing.

She has a unique characteristic: she never gives up. Even if she's not good at something, she's determined to do it well.

After teaching her a few times, Teacher Zhou saw that Song Mo was already quite proficient, so she simply decided to leave it to him. "Song Mo, Angela's movements are very simple. You teach her. I have something else to do."

Song Mo naturally nodded in agreement, but Zhang Shaohan, who was standing to the side, wanted to object. However, before she could say anything, Song Mo came over and helped her raise her arm a little.

She looked up at Song Mo, her breath catching slightly.

Song Mo was quite close, and she could feel his aura, mixed with a faint smell of sweat. It wasn't unpleasant; on the contrary, it had a strange attraction to it.

Song Mo didn't think too much about it. He tapped her shoulder and said softly, "Relax a little here, don't tense up."

She could feel the temperature behind her ears rising rapidly, and her body became somewhat stiff.
