Weibo Trending #15: #Who is Lin Mo#
Weibo Trending #17: #Zheng Hai you finally acted like a human being#
No matter how much Lin Chuyan tried to make outrageous statements to stand out, he would only hover outside the top few dozen on the entertainment charts for a few hours.
But Ruan Xingyu, tsk tsk.
Is this the popularity of a diva?
The first few trending topics were all discussing the new album and new songs, so Lin Chuyan clicked in with great interest.
" i am crossing the road, where are you, what does this mean? "
" Is this Xingxing's handwriting? Xingxing is truly beautiful, and so is her handwriting. "
" By the way, could this be the lyrics to the lead single? It doesn't sound like much. "
" Who said it doesn't sound like much? It's too delicate, okay! I dare say this line is definitely a stroke of genius, but without daily accumulation, it's hard to have such a divine touch. This lyricist is very impressive. "
" Stop blowing smoke, poster above. You're hyping up such a simple sentence like it's one of a kind. Hilarious. You wouldn't happen to be Lin Mo himself, would you? "
" To the poster above, she isn't Lin Mo, but she is He Xi... "
" Holy crap, even the big shot He Xi has been flushed out. "
" So who exactly is Lin Mo? "
" A big shot's alt account? Could it be Wawa? "
" It's not me. I don't mind admitting it, but I also submitted for Xingxing's lead single this time, and wasn't selected... "
More and more professional lyricists were flushed out, and the name Lin Mo also started to be searched by more "detectives."
" Look at his Weibo, everyone. Lin Mo has a Weibo, and it was just opened. He said himself that he's a newcomer. "
" Are all newcomers monsters? "
" I checked Aiyue.com. Lin Mo only has two songs under his name. One of them is Similar to Love》, and the other is called I Am a Fish》... "
" I Am a Fish》? What a strange song title. Who sings it? "
" Never heard of it... "
" Of course you haven't heard of it, because this song hasn't been released at all. If you click on it, you can only see the title! "
" If it can be found on Aiyue.com, it means the copyright has been registered. What's the point of letting it sit there without releasing it... "
" Who knows? Maybe he hasn't found a suitable buyer yet. "
Lin Mo held his phone and watched with great interest, then realized that the comments and private messages on his Lin Mo account were rising rapidly, with most of them trying to hit him up.
" Teacher Lin Mo, I am He Xi. Can we add each other on contact? "
" Big shot, I'm from Qianmu Entertainment. If you have good songs, please consider our artists. I'm asking for your contact info out of turn; my WeChat ID is... "
" Big shot, are you buying songs? No credit needed, just selling for money. Price is negotiable. "
Lin Chuyan didn't respond to any of them.
Who is He Xi? Never heard of them. Besides, what would we talk about if we added each other? Discuss lyrics and composition? What if I let the cat out of the bag? Better to just pretend I didn't see it...
And those asking if he's buying songs—what a joke. If there were really good songs, you'd go to Aiyue.com yourself.
But this increase in followers is quite fierce.
Lin Chuyan watched the follower count jump from single digits to over 100,000, and his hands got itchy again. There was no help for it; the settlement for the next round of dynamic traffic value hadn't been decided yet. Surely the alt account could count towards his total, right?
Let's try it.
Clicking on the Weibo comments, suddenly a message caught his eye.
Mosquito Hits Cannon: " Thank you, Big Shot Lin Mo, for writing such a great song for our Xingxing! Big Shot Lin Mo is awesome! "
Why are you everywhere? I choose you, Pikachu!
Lin Chuyan didn't want to disrupt Tianxing's promotional plan, so he just replied to the comment:
" The song hasn't even been released yet, and you're saying it sounds good? Are you a brainless fan? Don't bring hate to Xingxing! I advise you to be rational. Wait until the song is released to praise it; that's the correct way to be a fan! Xingxing definitely wouldn't want you to ruin her reputation with the general public! "
Reasonable and well-founded, quite convincing.
Zhuang Xiaowen had been a fan of Ruan Xingyu since her debut—calling him a die-hard fan wouldn't be an exaggeration—but at this moment, he felt as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly.
[ Damn, what kind of weirdo is this? This person is toxic. Can't I even praise him? Why am I being scolded? Damn, why does such a despicable person feel so familiar... ]
[ This feeling... Yes, Lin Chuyan is also this despicable, damn it! ]
Zhuang Xiaowen began to doubt life. Is it trendy in the entertainment industry now to roast people like this? Shouldn't public figures at least put on a facade? Why treat strangers like they aren't outsiders?
No, I have to scold him back. I have to think of a way to scold him back...
But what he said doesn't seem to be wrong either!
The more Zhuang Xiaowen thought about it, the angrier he got, but he didn't know how to reply, so he had to endure it silently.
Fine, Lin Mo, right? I'm watching you!
He was grinding his teeth so hard they were about to shatter.
...
Tianxing was very satisfied with this promotion. Zheng Hai expressed his gratitude to him multiple times on WeChat and asked, both directly and indirectly, if he had any more new songs. As long as the quality was top-notch, the price would definitely not be lower than Similar to Love》.
" Are you talking about I Am a Fish》? "
" Yes, yes. I heard Teacher Lin Mo hasn't sold it yet, so I came to ask for it. "
" This one isn't for sale; it's already been given to someone else. "
The relationship had just been established and needed to be maintained well, so Zheng Hai couldn't rashly ask who the buyer was, nor did he dare say anything about outbidding the other party, fearing he would commit a taboo. He could only be incredibly itchy to know, and even asked Ruan Xingyu to drop some hints when she had time...
Who knew the latter would sell him out directly.
Xingxing: " Brother Mo, I'm going to practice Singing. I'll strive to release the song as soon as possible. If there's anything, just send me a message directly. Oh right, if Brother Zheng Hai (my producer) keeps bothering you, just ignore him~ "
Lin: " He wouldn't dare. "
Xingxing: " Hahahaha! But I'm also a bit curious; the name I Am a Fish》 is so unique. "
" Want to hear it? "
" Cat nodding.gif "
Lin Chuyan originally just wanted to tease her, but then he had a second thought: Wait, isn't he looking for a vocal teacher? Isn't this the perfect opportunity? With such a big diva right in front of him.
Lin: " But I don't sing very well. "
Huh?
Ruan Xingyu originally thought she would see the other party send a "demo" or some such file. Who knew he wanted to sing it directly?
For some reason, she was looking forward to it even more...
Lin Chuyan said it directly: " Actually, there is something I would like your help with, I don't know if it's okay. "
Ruan Xingyu had just typed out the words "it's okay," but noticed the other party was still "typing," so she retracted the words.
" I've always wanted to learn to sing. Can I ask you for advice occasionally? "
Huh?
Ruan Xingyu couldn't keep up with his pace. What was she trying to do in the first place?
" Is it okay? Teacher Ruan. "
Ruan Xingyu was unable to think, so she replied subconsciously.
" Then, do you currently have any foundation in Singing Ability? "
" None. I only know how to compose. When it comes to Singing, I'm at a pure layman's level. I wanted to ask, what books can a beginner read to get started? "
Lin Chuyan waited for about two minutes. Just as he thought Ruan Xingyu was considering how to refuse, she replied.
" 《The Art of Singing, 《Modern Vocal Technique》, 《Vocal Anatomy》, 《Basic Vocal Tutorial》, and 《Vocal Training Manual》—you can buy these five books to read, Brother Mo; they are all quite suitable for beginners.
Also, just reading books isn't enough; you can watch video tutorials to assist your learning. There are many online, but they are of mixed quality. Brother Mo, you can download an app called Le Zhi Sheng, and then you can log in with my account and password. It contains the tutorials I bought before; you can watch them in the order of purchase to progress step by step.
Account: Ruan Xingyu, password: 123456. "
