MTL - Chapter One of the Night-Chapter 137 Red out of the circle

   Chapter 137 Red Out of the Circle

   "I can't stop loving you..."

  A big boy who looked fifteen or sixteen years old suddenly ran out of the crowd, danced to Xu Zhenghua, and sang loudly.

  Xu Zhenghua was stunned for a moment, then laughed and gave the boy a thumbs up.

   The people around him burst into laughter.

Today is the fifth day of the first lunar month. The rules here in Qilu Province are to reunite with the whole family on the first day of the first year, and not to visit relatives. In 1989, the rest of the relatives were visited, but in the fifth day of the first year, they were not allowed to visit relatives, especially for the elderly, this was a taboo.

  Why, Xu Zhenghua still doesn't know.

  But the fifth day of the first day is generally used to visit teachers and meet friends.

   Every year on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the Xie family will hold a large banquet, and there are four or five tables at every turn.

   On this day, all the introductory disciples of Xie Shi will come to visit him, and because the master and the apprentice are close to father and son, when they come to see their master, as long as they are married, they usually bring their family with them.

In addition, there are many children who have practiced with them even though they have not been taught by teachers. They will also come to give gifts on this day, and many who have been treated by Teacher Xie will also come to the door to give gifts and thank you on this day. The Xie family will not let these children. People come and leave, usually with meals.

Xu Zhenghua came back on the third day of the first lunar month. Yesterday, he accompanied his parents to his hometown to see his grandparents, grandparents, and grandpa. The gathering was full of people, most of them were young people at the beginning, and then all kinds of people watching the fun followed.

   When Xu Zhenghua came over at 9 o'clock, the whole building was blocked, and the crowd even overflowed. After entering the gate of the community, there were people on both sides of the road, all the way to the downstairs of Xie's house.

  Everyone is waiting to see the big stars.

   had no choice but to come down to maintain order and let Xu Zhenghua enter the building.

   But Xu Zhenghua didn't panic at all.

   This is the third time he has encountered such a situation.

On the first day of the first day of the new year, he accompanies Xia Jingjing to the supermarket to buy some food. He even wears a mask and hat. In winter, he is already fully armed, but he is still recognized. How many people's supermarkets, so many people poured out in an instant, almost crowding the shelves.

   caused Xu Zhenghua to retreat in embarrassment.

Yesterday, I went back to my hometown, a small county more than 200 miles away from Quancheng, but I was blocked at home that afternoon, and I almost couldn't get downstairs - there was also a big local boss who blocked the road with a bag of cash. , In front of thousands of people watching the excitement, he slammed open the zipper, and it looked like there were more than 200,000. He said that his supermarket opened in the first month of the month, and hoped that Xu Zhenghua would sing a song.

   In short, all kinds of confusion.

   Today's scene is not small, but Xu Zhenghua has adapted to it after all.

   He can even walk into the community and chat casually with everyone, "Ah? Come to see me? Hahaha, there's nothing to see, one mouth and two eyes... I'll take off my mask and show you!"

   "Ah? I'm pretty good looking? Then auntie look back and tell me a daughter-in-law!"

   "That dance, practice! I practiced until my feet were bald, it hurts to death!"

"Oh, you said this dress? You bought this dress, haven't you seen it? Don't worry, their boss is my buddy, and he has promised me that they will open a store in our Spring City soon, and he and I are buddies. I promised that there will be no discount anywhere else, only in our Spring City, 10% off the whole site!"

   "Hey, Auntie! Hahaha... You should hire a matchmaker! You told me that your daughter is beautiful, the key is that I'm shy! I've never been in love since I grew up!"

  The crowd burst into laughter, and he walked into the community all the way with him.

   Then, he encountered that scene, and suddenly a boy jumped out to imitate him.

   caused another burst of laughter.

  Xu Zhenghua also stopped, handed the wine in his hand to the second senior brother, and performed the half-rotation of the palm for the boy again, and then he laughed and praised, and turned to go upstairs.

   went well.

   At least there was no accident.

It is said that he has become popular since "First Experience of Love" topped the A-list of the Oriental Voice Music Chart. Later, "Jiangnan" became more and more famous, and people became more and more popular. Even "Jiangnan" "In the first few weeks, it was obviously much faster than "First Experience of Love", but until now, after the Spring Festival Gala, he suddenly realized that this one is really red. .

   Streets and alleys, men and women, young and old, almost everyone knows about it.

   It is said that the CD production factory under Qixing started to work early on the first day of the Chinese New Year, and worked overtime to produce the single CD and the album of the same name of "Love You Never Ending", which was released on the twenty-seventh day of the new year.

It is said that on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Huaxia TV rebroadcasted the Spring Festival Gala, and during the period when he sang "I Can't Stop Loving You", the ratings hit a new high for a time. It is very likely that it will break through one billion people in one fell swoop - this is not the key, the key is that as soon as "I Can't Stop Loving You" is finished, the ratings immediately go crazy.

   You must know that in terms of popularity and popularity, the biggest names in the music world are still behind!

   But no, the number of people waiting to watch their replay is far less than the number of people watching themselves!

  Isn't this red, what is it?

   This is a typical red to the circle.

   When An Xiaojing, who was also on the Spring Festival Gala this year, called, she was envious and jealous. She said that she felt that although she was on the Spring Festival Gala, she did not seem to gain any popularity. She also said that everyone was saying that the luck of the whole Spring Festival Gala this year was taken away by Xu Zhenghua alone.

His special dance moves in less than ten seconds attracted 70% of the entire Spring Festival Gala's attention, "I Can't End Love You" and Xu Zhenghua himself, attracted 20%, and the rest of the show's owners were divided 10%.

  Xu Zhenghua refuted her righteously and sternly, saying that things like luck are purely feudal superstition.

   Then he laughed again.

Yes, he is indeed a little proud - although he has always felt that he is not a singer or a celebrity at all in the past, but I have to say that he is really popular to this level, even if his self-proclaimed mind is far beyond ordinary people. People are all fluttering from the heart.

   is very cool.

   Jin Xiaoqing and Du Xuelan are better.

   Both of them were the kind that became very popular last year. No one in the north and south of the Yangtze River did not sing "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que", and no one inside and outside the Great Wall did not listen to "Dance with Eyes" - so the mentality was obviously more peaceful.

  Jin Xiaoqing used to be obedient and tame, and the change was not obvious.

  Du Xuelan's attitude changed slightly, her tone was as arrogant as before, but she actually praised it very seriously, "You danced this dance very well, it's amazing, a person with absolutely no foundation can dance like this!"

   A rare compliment.

   By the way, when the three of them called on the phone, one thing was almost exactly the same: they wanted clothes!

   Invariably, all three of them liked the kind of cheongsam that the four female dancers behind Xu Zhenghua were wearing, and they all said that they wanted to wear that kind of clothes to the Golden Coconut Awards.

   Xu Zhenghua could not ask for it.

The   Golden Coconut Award, as the most influential music award in the world, has great influence. It is no exaggeration to say that the Spring Festival Gala is the only one, but in the following category, the Golden Coconut Award ranks first.

  Three big beauties and big stars put on cheongsam to bring goods together. The rhythm is not too cool.

   So they all agreed.

   "Oh, our big star is finally here!"

   Opened the door and went in, a group of people were there booing, Xu Zhenghua didn't bother to pay attention to them, handed the wine to Xie Shumin, and pointed to the big elbow in the second brother's hand, "Master, this is mine, not my second brother!"

   Everyone in the room laughed.

   Mistress and Xie Shuyi, as well as several sisters-in-law, all looked out from the kitchen.

  Master's house is not very big, at this time the living room is already full of tables. Xu Zhenghua walked up to the master, knelt down and kowtowed for the New Year, asked for a red envelope, and then ran to kowtow to his wife.

   Xie Shumin happily followed, wherever Xu Zhenghua went, she followed.

The mistress stretched out her hand and pulled Xu Zhenghua up, wiped the water on her body, and looked at such a spirited young man, full of joy, raised her hand to touch his face, "My little seven is amazing, you sister-in-law can cut a vegetable too. Say you, your fellow brothers and sisters are also talking about you outside, the lady just looks a little thinner, don't you dare to eat enough? I heard from your sister-in-law that even a star dare not Eat up!"

  Xu Zhenghua chuckled, "I've had enough to eat, I'm tired from rehearsal recently."

   Then he rushed to the women's army in the kitchen and said, "Happy Chinese New Year, sisters-in-law, give me a red envelope!"

The third sister-in-law is the most powerful, and her mouth is not forgiving. In previous years, she must have said something to you, "You kneel down and knock one for your sister-in-law, and I will give you a red envelope!" But this year, it is difficult to say that, so I will turn around Looking at Xie Shuyi, without waiting for the others to answer, she said first, "You're so embarrassed! Why don't you even look at us and don't know? Who doesn't know that you made a truckload of money last year, but asked us for red envelopes?"

While talking, she stood in the kitchen and started calling people, her son, the son of the senior brother, and the daughter of the second senior brother, in short, a few children from the next generation, "Come here, come and give you seven Uncle kowtow!"

   Good guy, there are already four who will kneel down and kowtow by themselves.

   There are two more in the robes.

   "Hello Seventh Uncle! Happy New Year to Seventh Uncle!"

  Xu Zhenghua laughed--I don't know if other brothers and sisters will give it, but he knows that he has to give it. Everyone knows that you have made a fortune!

The    red envelope was wrapped by Xie Shuyi last night and sent to the past.

   Dealing with these things, she has always been thoughtful.

   "Seventh Uncle is really preparing for this, hahaha, come and come, there will be every year in the future!"

   One big red envelope per person, bulging, so everyone rejoices.

At noon, I stayed at Master's house to drink. They were all a group of brothers. They usually practiced the exercises together, sweated, and even fought each other. They were all rough men, and most of them were crazy when they drank. wine, but Xu Zhenghua was still drunk, and he didn't even know how he slipped under the table.

   He only knew that when he woke up, he was lying on Xie Shumin's bed.

  …………

   Just when Xu Zhenghua was drinking big wine at Xie's house, on the fifth day of the first day, also on February 14th, at noon on Monday, the Voice of the East music chart was released on time again.

   "Unfinished Love For You" is almost no suspense and directly airborne to the top of the A list.

The single disc and album of this song were released on the 28th day of the Chinese New Year before the Spring Festival, but it was the end of the year, and there was not much publicity. To be fair, how many people would go to buy it in the past two days What about the record? Therefore, the sales volume and the attention are limited.

   But after New Year's Eve, things changed all of a sudden.

The attention of "Unfinished Love For You" has directly exploded. The two rebroadcasts of the Spring Festival Gala were absolutely peak ratings when "Unfinished Love With You" was broadcast. Other TV stations also frequently discussed after the festival. Everything related to this song - song, Xu Zhenghua, dance, album, even dress.

Even the other programs and stars that were clearly outstanding in the Spring Festival Gala were almost completely ignored - it was really like what An Xiaojing said, the luck of the whole Spring Festival Gala was brought by Xu Zhenghua, then , the attention given to other programs and people is naturally pitiful.

   So the impression to everyone is that this year's Spring Festival Gala is the most popular show.

   That is "Unfinished Love for You"!

However, in fact, there are ten or so singers who choose to sing new songs on this year's Spring Festival Gala, and use this to prepare to promote new singles to hit the charts or bring new albums. Everyone knows that the Spring Festival Gala is the most popular in the world. The top stage, as long as there is a chance, of course, this great promotion opportunity will not be wasted.

   As a result, there was no fire.

   Only one song "Love You Endlessly" was popular.

Even just the first place on the A-list of the Oriental Voices Music Chart is not enough to declare the current popularity of "Unfinished Love for You". A more important list is the album of the same name "Unfinished Love for You" , a week after its listing, it has historically ranked first on the B list!

   And the second place on the B chart is the single disc of "I Can't Stop Loving You".

   The third place is "Browsing Eyes +", which also ranked first last week.

   This is the first time in history that Xu Zhenghua has won the first place in the B list.

   The simple and rude pure sales list has unmatched proving power.

Before that, Du Xuelan's chart-topping song "Sunny July 7th" won the first place on the A chart for three weeks on January 24, January 31 and February 7, and the first place on January 31, 2 No. 1 on the B list for the two weeks on the 7th.

   Now, "Unfinished Love For You" has obviously taken over the baton directly.

According to a short message sent by a female host, many TV stations and radio stations now make predictions when discussing this song and this album, and the Chinese music scene will be completely shrouded in at least half a year. In the shadow of this song, that dance, and this album.

Because everyone can clearly perceive that this song, and the dance with Xu Zhenghua on the Spring Festival Gala, have become popular enough to be out of the circle - not only fans who like listening to songs like him and pay attention to his problems, but Even if the number is at least one billion, plus overseas Chinese groups, and foreigners who admire Chinese culture and like to chase Chinese stars and Chinese songs, there may even be more than two billion people who are interested in music, music, and entertainment. Insensitive people in the circle have also begun to pay attention to him, discuss him, like him, and will personally buy a record of him and listen to it.

  …………

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, that is, on February 17, Xu Zhenghua left Quancheng and flew directly to the magic capital with Guan Yulan who came, and continued to start the publicity tour-now almost everyone is very interested in him, and almost all programs want to invite him When he came to record the program, although it would not be the same as the program, but the most influential programs of the major TV stations still had to take the opportunity to watch it.

   Let’s say it’s red again, if you don’t show up all the time, the heat will fade away after all.

   But if you can strike while the iron is hot, the impression of "he is very popular" will be fixed, and finally expressed in terms of appearance fees, record sales, and even the status of the rivers and lakes, and completely finalize your "red".

   Fortunately, Xu Zhenghua has never made publicity, and he is not afraid to face those tricky hosts on the show.

   He is handsome, sings well, dances well, and has high emotional intelligence, plus a joke.

   He is an almost total eye attractor.

   It's tiring, but the effect is excellent.

   On February 21st and February 28th, two consecutive episodes of the Voice of the East Music Chart, "Love You Never End" completed the double chart of the A chart and the B chart without any pressure.

   Even according to Qiu Jianfeng, general manager of the Imperial Capital Division of Venus Records, regardless of popularity or sales, "I Can't End Love You" is a complete crushing trend.

   No opponent's stats come even close.

Even according to the internal estimation of Venus, on the B chart of the February 21st issue, that is, the sales list, the single sales of "Unfinished Love For You", which ranked second, are about equal to three, four, five, three. The total number of album sales.

   And the album sales of "Unfinished Love For You", which is absolutely the first in sales, is simply equal to the sum of the sales from the second to the seventh place - everyone obviously prefers to buy more cost-effective albums.

   But that's not the end of it.

   On February 21st, that is, the second week of "Love You Never Ending" topping the A-list, there were even two songs with almost no publicity, which suddenly broke into the top ten.

   is "Kiss Goodbye" and "Swing Together".

  In the case of completely relying on album sales to get listening without any active promotion, "Kiss Goodbye" rushed to the fourth place on the A chart, and the cheerful blues rock "Swing Together" reached the seventh place.

When the time came to February 28, not only "Kiss Goodbye" rose to third place, "Swing Together" rushed to fifth place, and there was even a new song in the album that rushed into the top ten - "Nowhere to Be Ashamed", No. 1. Nine.

   This is a result of completely disrupting the rhythm of the announcement.

   But without a doubt a good result.

On Thursday, March 3rd, just 24 days after the album was released, a vice president of the publisher Qixing Records announced in an interview that the sales volume of the album of the same name "I Can't Stop Loving You" has exceeded 1,200. 10,000 copies, and the single-disc shipment has exceeded 5 million.
