Huayu 2007: Starting with fleecing the "Fairy Sisters"

For a moment, Wu Wei even wondered if he had traveled to some parallel world.

Because in his previous life, he had never heard of Jing Tian releasing any songs.

Can she sing?

However, after thinking it over, he realized that this situation wasn't surprising when it happened to Jing Tian.

Given her privileged background, it's quite reasonable for her to debut by releasing songs in this era when the music scene is still at its peak.

Then the song flopped without a trace, so quietly that even he didn't know it, which makes even more sense.

It has that familiar "over-promotion leading to ruin" feel from Jing Tian.

Noticing Wu Wei's gaze, Jing Tian turned her head, opened her large, clear eyes, and looked at him with a puzzled expression.

Their eyes met briefly in mid-air.

Wu Wei snapped out of his daze and immediately gave her a polite smile.

Jing Tian also smiled slightly in response.

Then the two of them looked away.

Yu Binhan, Liang Qiaobo, and Zhang Yadong all knew each other, and the two groups naturally gathered together to exchange pleasantries.

Zhou Bichang also went over to say hello, and Zhang Yadong also participated in the production of her new album.

Through their conversation, Wu Wei learned the young woman's name: Meng Nan.

He was quite familiar with the name; he knew she had participated in "The Voice of China" and was a very good songwriter.

Huang Ling's new song "Itch" released this year was written and composed by her.

A moment later, Yu Binhan turned around, waved to Wu Wei, and then introduced him to the two of them: "This is Wu Wei. He was introduced by Jackie Chan. He can write songs and sings quite well. He even wrote a title track for Bibi's new album."

Zhang Yadong and Meng Nan both looked at him and nodded as a greeting.

Wu Wei smiled politely.

After exchanging a few words, the group parted ways at the door.

Zhang Yadong and Jing Tian attended a promotional event before the release of her EP.

Wu Wei and his group of four then took a car to a restaurant for dinner.

……

Back in his dorm, Wu Wei immediately turned on his computer and searched for Jing Tian.

This search left me completely stunned.

It turns out she had already released a single last year, and the music video was directed by Ning Hao, the director who had just become famous for "Crazy Stone".

Her EP is titled "Who Are You" and will be released on September 20th.

Her first starring film, "Anaconda," has finished filming and is currently in post-production.

Wu Wei leaned back, looked at the beautiful face on the screen, and couldn't help but shake his head.

The resources they have for their debut are amazing.

Jing Tian's background is indeed extraordinary.

Wu Wei opened a video website and searched for the song she had posted before, then listened to it.

Well, the song is good, the music video is good, and the singer is beautiful, but the singing...

It's really hard to explain in a few words.

All I can say is that she should stick to acting.

Even if the acting is bad, at least there's still a face to look at.

……

More than ten days later, Wu Wei's three songs were finally completed.

Wu Wei couldn't wait to go to Leling Culture and get the disc containing the master tape and MP3 copies from Yu Binhan.

Back in his dorm, he put on his headphones and listened to all three songs from beginning to end.

The arrangement was clean, the vocals were clear, and the mixing was full and layered, even better than he had imagined.

Especially "Mercury," the cool yet gentle electronic atmosphere was tuned very precisely, in no way inferior to the original, and he himself couldn't help but feel a little moved when he listened to it.

Mr. Yu clearly put his heart into it.

Wu Wei immediately sent Yu Binhan a text message: "Mr. Yu, the finished product is fantastic, thank you."

Yu Binhan immediately replied, "Of course, when are you planning to send it?"

Without hesitation, Wu Wei said, "I'll send it out tomorrow."

……

On the morning of September 29, Wu Wei turned on his computer, logged into his accounts on Fenbei.com and 5sing.com, and then uploaded all three songs at once.

These two websites are currently the largest original music distribution websites in China. Almost all well-known online songs first became popular on these two websites.

Xu Song, Xu Liang, and Wang Sulong, who later became the three giants of online music, all started their rise to fame from here.

After uploading, Wu Wei stared at the screen for a few seconds, refreshed the page to confirm that everything was OK, and then closed the website.

He did not immediately use the "heat amplifier".

He planned to use this tool at the most opportune moment to maximize its effect.

The upload has just been completed, and the hype hasn't started yet, so even if you use it, the effect won't be ideal.

Then, he sent a text message to Yu Binhan and Zhou Bichang, saying that the song had been released.

I didn't tell anyone else, not even my parents or roommates.

He would check the website for data every other day.

On the first day, there were dozens of clicks.

The next day, the number was still in the dozens, but people had started sending flowers to express their love for the song.

On the third day, the number of clicks rose to several hundred, and a few comments began to appear.

……

A week later, the number of clicks per day finally exceeded two thousand.

This data is actually quite good for a newcomer who hasn't done any promotion at all.

However, compared to the songs at the top of the website charts, the gap is still quite obvious.

The top ten songs on the charts all have more than 50,000 daily views.

On a global scale, that's not even a fraction of what others make.

However, Wu Wei was not in a hurry.

This momentum is great; if it continues, all three songs will eventually climb to the top of the charts.

He is very confident about this.

However, to his surprise, Zhou Bichang suddenly gave him a huge surprise.

On October 7, the "10th Global Chinese Music Awards" ceremony was held at the Hong Kong Coliseum on Hong Kong Island.

Zhou Bichang walked the red carpet in a white tuxedo and a chic little hat, and was interviewed by the host, who asked her questions about her new album.

"Bibi, was the title track of your new album written by Liang Qiaobo?"

Zhou Bichang smiled at the camera: "No, this time the title track was written by a newcomer named Wu Wei, who is a good friend of mine. The song is very good, so everyone can look forward to it."

A fan shouted from below, "I want to hear it now! I can't wait!"

Zhou Bi tilted his head and said with a smile, "If you can't wait, he recently released three new songs. My favorite is called 'Mercury.' You can search for it and listen to it to support my friend."

The interview was featured in numerous news and entertainment programs that very evening.

Zhou Bichang is currently very popular, and her new album is about to be released, so she already receives a lot of attention.

When fans heard that their idol had recommended it, and that the creator of the title track was also involved, they rushed to search for "Mercury" and "Wu Wei" online.
