1998 was destined to be an extraordinary year for the Chinese music scene. The shining of new stars and the demise of old stars still created many classics.

However, the main prosperity is the Hong Kong and Taiwan music scene, while the mainland music scene is somewhat lackluster.

But now that Ye Fan has joined, this year's Chinese music scene has been pushed to a peak, and the Hong Kong and Taiwan music scene will not be left alone!

Since June, the domestic music scene has clearly entered a stage of fierce competition, and it has become even more fierce in July.

In August, after other singers and Ye Fan left the show one after another, the show completely entered a feverish stage.

I have to say that this year’s singing competition with female singers is very popular.

The new generation of Coco Lee, Hsu Huaiyu, Gigi Leung, Fan Xiaoxuan and others have released their own famous works.

The famous Queen Princess, Zhang Huimei, Zheng Xiuwen, Su Rui and others will also join in the battle later.

The male singers are slightly inferior, but there are the Four Heavenly Kings in front of them, and there are also Ren Xianqi and the relatively popular new generation Wang Wang, Yu Chengqing, Ku Juji, Eason and others behind them.

As of July, Coco Lee's "Good Mood" is the only one on the Wanwan Golden Songs Chart, and the rest of the rankings are based on their own abilities.

Relatively speaking, Tai Ziji's "Enemy" and Yu Chengqing's "Selected" albums have been in the top three for a relatively long time.

Hong Kong's rankings include Tai Tzu Kei, Andy Hui, Andy Lau, Aaron Kwok, Sammi Cheng and others who released songs from June to July. The competition should not be too fierce.

When August comes, new singers will join the group.

First of all, Mao Ning released his new album "Heart of Mao Ning" on August 1st. This album received a strong response once it was released.

This album is not only well-produced, but also includes the duet song "Only You in My Heart", a collaboration between him and Chen Ming, which is this year's advertising song for Wahaha Purified Water.

In addition, he also sang a cover of "My Heart Will Go On", and the Chinese version was added to this album, making "Heart's Mao Ning" not only a good reputation, but also a high sales volume!

It can be said that if it weren't for Ye Fan, Mao Ning would be the top brother in the mainland music scene this year!

On the same day in the Wanwan music scene, Wang Jie released a new album "Substitute", but no one knew about this album.

In the fiercely competitive music scene, he was the first established singer to be kicked out.

Of course, there are many reasons for Wang Jie's downturn. He will turn around when he joins YH next year.

August 5th

Xu Huaiyu strikes while the iron is hot and releases new EP album "5.6.7.8.Going"

Zhou Huajian released "The Man with a Story", and the classic song "I've Been Annoyed Lately" came from this album.

Li Yijun released a new album "Oath to Lie". Even without the song "Rain Butterfly", the album sold well in Wanwan.

Before Ye Fan released "Light Chaser", the ranking on the mainland's on-demand charts was:

First place: "Candlelight" Ye Fan;

Second place: The Eagle in "Conquer";

Third place: Coco Lee from "Good Mood";

Fourth place: Ye Fan from "Glory";

Fifth place: "I Still Love You" Xu Ruyun;

Sixth place: "Bright" Ye Fan;

Seventh place: Gigi Leung in "Cowards";

Eighth place: "Waiting for You to Love Me" Chen Ming;

Ninth place: "Rain Butterfly" Ye Fan;

Tenth place: "Cruel Moonlight" Ye Fan.

Although Ye Fan still has 5 songs in the top ten of the list, the following Mandarin songs such as "Bubugao", "My Heart Will Go On", "Let Your Sky Be the Most Beautiful", "Early Autumn" and "I'm Feeling Annoyed Lately" are all following.

very tight.

However, after the release of "Light Chaser", the entire Chinese music world paid attention to this album.

Especially in the major entertainment and music news media sections, there is basically news about "Light Chaser" and Ye Fan.

""Light Chaser" - Ye Fan tells stories with singing and sings about life with true feelings"

""Light Chaser", a very visual album that makes people listen to it"

"The song "Light Chaser" reminds me of that summer, and suddenly I look back on my youth."

"The MV of "Light Chaser" reminds us to pay attention to school bullying"

"As soon as "Moonlight" is played, sadness suddenly arises. The three-character chorus sings, telling the story of the infatuated son."

""Direction of Light" - Ye Fan sang about the desolation and majesty of the desert"

""Light" - [Chinese style] The smell is so strong that it can't be dissolved"

…

The songs in this album have really shocked people. It can be said that every song is nice and classic.

Therefore, in addition to the huge sales volume, the number of on-demand songs in "Light Chaser" is also rising rapidly.

Just when Ye Fan rushed to the crew of "Little Three", the entire music world was paying attention to the ranking data of "Light Chaser".

Especially Penguin, with the influence of "Light Chaser", the number of data visits on the 8th directly doubled.

But as the amount of data increases, it means adding more servers, but so far they haven't found a good way to monetize the traffic.

This means that costs will increase, and Ye Fan's investment has already been almost spent by them.

This made Brother Ma feel happy and worried at the same time. He quickly convened a meeting with the senior management to discuss whether to discuss some money with Ye Fan.

The three major portals, Net One, Sohu and Sili Tongfang (the predecessor of Sina), directly sent people to pay attention in real time.

Whenever there is an update on the music chart rankings, immediately go to the news or update related section information.

Because online netizens were so enthusiastic about "Light Chaser" that they almost crashed the servers of the three companies.

[The song "Light Chaser" is nice, but the MV is heartbreaking and makes me feel sad.]

[Fortunately, I bought the tape. Listening to "Light Chaser" made me want to confess to the girl I like]

[Forget it, I just fell out of love, and listening to "Light Chaser" made me cry all night long.]

…

["Moonlight" sounds like a picture as soon as it is played, but I tried singing it and found that this song is very difficult to sing.]

[I am a music major, and I am very responsible to tell you that this song really does not give anyone a chance to cover it. 】

[Not to mention the cover, I feel like Ye Fan didn’t leave any way out for himself when he sang this song. 】

[Am I the only one who thinks Ye Fan’s voice when singing this song is girly? 】

[What the hell do you know? If you can’t speak, is that called a mother? That’s called switching between true and false tones, and it’s a very powerful singing skill!]

…

Unlike the speed of the Internet, paper media is not as timely.

But they can be summed up and asked to be reviewed by well-known musicians, and they can also get a lot of attention.

Due to the huge popularity, the media began to help build momentum for "Light Chaser", causing the matter to become more and more popular.

It already has the momentum of last year’s peak battle between “The Wind Rises” and “Too Soft Hearted”!

But at that time, the two albums shared equal attention, but now "Light Chaser" dominates the Chinese music scene!

Taking advantage of this trend, Warner Bros. has stepped up publicity in the hope that "Light Chaser" will sell more.

Previously, Warner did not allow Ye Fan to participate in "Light Chaser" and donate a share of the money. Warner Jingwen and Warner (China) each donated 10 million, which was considered as a token of appreciation...

When Ye Fan returned to the set of "The Young Master", he was greeted with enthusiastic compliments from everyone.

Especially Huang Xiaoming, Pan Yueming and Zhang Jin, they all surrounded Ye Fan and praised them all the time, making Ye Fan's eyes twitch with rainbow farts.

The expressions of Liu Yijun, Li Xiaoran, Fan Xiaopang and others were also very strange, as if they wanted to take photos but were embarrassed.

After all, they are not as familiar as Huang Xiaoming and Ye Fan, and they are not as unruly as the other two.

.

Hu Jing, Wu Jing and others stood aside and watched, laughing.

"There's something wrong with you. You don't like listening to music that much. My new album won't let you do this. Tell me, what's the matter?"

Hearing Ye Fan's words, Huang Xiaoming and others didn't know what to say.

Seeing this, Ye Fan glanced at Liu Yijun who was enjoying himself and shouted: "Old Liu, come here and tell me what's going on."

Liu Yijun was startled when he heard his boss calling him. He quickly stopped smiling and ran over. Fu Er told Ye Fan the whole story.

After hearing this, Ye Fan suddenly realized and looked at Liu Yijun, the "culprit", looking a little embarrassed.

"You have a good eye, you guessed everything right."

Everyone looked happy when they heard Ye Fan's words, and looked at Mr. Ye with shining eyes.

Ye Fan smiled and said: "The movie may be shot next year, but the TV series will have to wait a few years. As for the actors, people from the company will definitely be given priority."
