311: Chapter 311, page 1224

The famous Haters, Teacher Zhao Peng, didn't post on Weibo today, yet Lin Chuyan's fans cheekily ran over to leave comments.

"Teacher Zhao, could you give us a review of 'in the name of the father'? Please, the kid loves watching."

"Teacher Zhao, did this 'in the name of the father' still fail to touch your heart?"

"Teacher Zhao, why aren't you bashing it? Haven't thought of an angle yet? Don't rush, I'll wait for you."

However, no matter how they provoked him, Zhao Peng had no intention of responding anyway—it's normal to not check Weibo for a day occasionally, right?

It wasn't that he didn't want to criticize, but after looking for a few angles, he felt they were all inappropriate... It was a bit far-fetched and would be easy to catch him out on. After all, he still had to work in the industry; he could criticize, but it couldn't affect his professionalism. He even had a premonition: if he blindly criticized it, he would likely face a backlash.

After all, while 'in the name of the father' didn't please everyone, it had indeed become a phenomenal work. Many people even revered it as a bible, just as many film buffs revere 'The Godfather' as a bible.

It wasn't just ordinary netizens; a large number of music critics also gave the song good reviews. Some of the flattery even made Wawa feel a sense of crisis...

In short, on December 24th, almost all platforms were discussing 'in the name of the father' and the creator behind it, Lin Chuyan.

Most importantly, the influence of 'in the name of the father' was not limited to the country.

The spread of this matter went like this: initially, it naturally spread abroad relying on the brand influence of Vogartis, but immediately after, many foreign girls were attracted by the unique temperament of Lin Chuyan in the MV.

How should I put it? There's no substitute for him in the Chinese Entertainment Industry, and even the Japanese or Korean entertainment industries might not have one either.

It's the same everywhere. Among the young fresh meat idols, there are very few who have the villainous temperament of a suit-wearing gangster like Lin Chuyan. Even if there are, they are either older than him or not as handsome, making him a scarce resource.

Then, it was just like that old saying: started with looks, trapped by talent, loyal to character.

The girls' real thoughts: I haven't paid attention for a year, why is the Chinese Entertainment Industry eating so well now? Handsome, can create, good Singing Ability, great acting skills, personality, truly dedicated...

I'm a fan, I'm a fan.

Then they took another look—what the hell? This guy actually has a public girlfriend? And they are very loving? Are idols allowed to date?

Lin Chuyan's fans: Idol? Have you ever seen an idol like this? This is a talented Singer and actor, thank you!

Vogartis had already won big anyway. As Lin Chuyan's 'in the name of the father' MV became deeply rooted in people's hearts and was even revered as a bible, Vogartis's stock price even rose along with it.

As soon as this news came out, a new trending search appeared. #Lin Chuyan Effect#

"Tsk tsk, the brands that Lin the Dog currently endorses seem to be working very well with him? I remember Chouchou Snail Rice Noodles and Jingjie Purified Water are doing quite well now."

"Later, China Mobile's M-Zone was also great! My classmates and I are all using it."

"What a 'Lin Chuyan Effect'. There should be even more brands looking for Lin the Dog in the future, right?"

"Let him earn! Let him earn! Write more songs like 'in the name of the father', ahhhhh!"

NetEase Cloud Music's Boss Zhu naturally saw this so-called "Lin Chuyan Effect" and immediately got an idea—this is good, this is good! Why don't we do one too!

No joke, Boss Zhu was now completely devoted to Lin Chuyan. Yanzi was now his precious treasure; he might not have even treated his own wife this well, thinking every day about giving Lin Chuyan a little surprise.

Lin Chuyan's new album sales had started to reverse the trend on the 24th—after the song 'in the name of the father' came out, many people who hadn't planned on buying the new album just blindly rushed to buy it.

Boss Zhu estimated that with the support of 'in the name of the father', the new album sales would steadily break 2 million.

However, this 2 million figure would have to wait; it wasn't out yet.

So the question arose: how should they do it to get some honors for Lin Chuyan first?

Boss Zhu and his team worked tirelessly for several hours, and in the end, they really came up with something big!

Looking at the backend, the record for the song 'in the name of the father' could now be checked, and the most glorious data was that it had refreshed the record for the number of concurrent listeners on NetEase Cloud Music in a single day.

There were many reasons for this. One was because the quality of the song 'in the name of the father' itself was top-notch. Second was because Vogartis's promotion was too extensive, plus the assistance from netizens in other countries. Third was because of NetEase Cloud Music itself: exclusive, free across the entire network, limited to one day... if it were you, you'd rush too!

With all these reasons combined, the data directly broke the record.

So, how should they add some honor to this data?

In the end, Boss Zhu approved one of the employees' suggestions—from now on, December 24th would be NetEase Cloud Music's "Lin Chuyan Day"!

As for what to do on this day and what benefits to offer... no rush, they could bring in Tianxing Company and Lin Chuyan's studio, and the three parties could have a good discussion.

But for the "Lin Chuyan Day" idea, if Lin Chuyan's side didn't object, they could start promoting the name first.

As long as this wave of marketing was done well and the fans accepted it, then... wouldn't Tencent Music be furious?

Boss Zhu was in a great mood!

Soon, NetEase Cloud Music contacted Wu Yue, and after obtaining consent, they finally released the news after employees worked overtime to prepare it.

First was the official Weibo account.

"dear Cloud Village villagers, today, we have some exciting news to share with everyone!

Lin Chuyan's 'in the name of the father' has made history, with the number of single-day listeners for a single song breaking a staggering 300 million. This achievement is not only shocking, but it has also broken NetEase Cloud Music's record!

To commemorate this special day, we have decided to designate this day as NetEase Cloud Music's 'Lin Chuyan Day'. This is a tribute to Lin Chuyan's musical talent and also a thank you to all of you who love music.

Let us celebrate this miracle belonging to music together, and look forward to more wonderful works from Lin Chuyan in the future! #Lin Chuyan Day# #in the name of the father Breaks Record#"

Passerby: "..."

Haters: "???"

Lin the Dog fans: "!!!"

NetEase Cloud Music said this achievement was shocking, but netizens wanted to say that you guys really have a lot of flashy moves.

Clicking into the app, the splash screen poster was clearly a solo photo of Lin the Dog, plus the big words "Lin Chuyan Day".

Entering the main page, the original "Discover" page at the bottom had all been changed to Lin Chuyan's work display area...

Starting from his EP, to his first album, and then to his second album.

They also subdivided it into categories like Rap, R&B, etc., and once you went in, there was all kinds of flattery. What was the creative idea behind each song? Where exactly was this song good? It was all analyzed for you clearly.

I don't know how Lin Chuyan felt after seeing it, but the fans were quite happy.

Fine, fine, fine, my brother is afraid of being thrown shoes at and can't go to the music festival? It doesn't matter, we fans have our own music festival!
