Chapter 33 Swords and Horses, The Harvest Time
"It's great that it's become popular!"
"Once I become famous, I won't need to go home and inherit the family business!"
"It's trending..."
Xie Ruonan didn't react for a moment.
One second they were clinking beer glasses, the next second their hands were both frozen in mid-air.
"Wow! It's trending!" Her best friend shoved the phone right in front of her.
In the scene, several handsome men, dressed in thin, barely-there clothing, stared intently at 'her'.
No, it's looking at the camera.
The one at the head was a face she knew very well.
Holy crap!
"You son of a bitch!"
The man, who had been in a daze, also came over.
"You know what, this streamer's figure is really amazing."
My best friend's eyes were seeing stars.
In the video, Shen Mo's shirt is soaked with sweat, revealing his abs, and his movements and expressions are quite dramatic.
"Take a look and see if this is your song."
Say it, then click play.
"Vai toma toma toma..."
"Vai toma rajadao……"
As the familiar melody began, Xie Ruonan felt a lump in her throat as she listened to the song she had poured her heart and soul into.
She grew up abroad and didn't return to China until junior high school. She has been interested in alternative hip-hop since she was a child.
I originally thought that China would be very closed off and that very few people would know these things. But to my surprise, not only is it not closed off here, but the variety of niche music here is just as good as that abroad.
Especially in Chengdu.
So, she came into contact with the niche field of electronic and rap fusion.
The video ends with a camera movement showing seven boys striking a pose before the surrounding lights dim.
None of the three people operated the video, and it automatically replayed.
The first thing to appear on camera was "the dog son".
The solid color background keeps changing colors, and cherry blossom effects appear.
The camera zooms out, switching between medium and close-up shots, and several people appear in the background. At the same time, she can finally see the changing background wall behind her.
It turns out it was in a live stream.
The already simple and catchy music becomes even more addictive with the addition of repetitive, brainwashing movements.
Before she knew it, Xie Ruonan's own body was starting to move.
What the hell!
This thing is toxic and contagious.
The three of them finally came to their senses after the video played on repeat.
A 27-second video, in just three hours, generated explosive data that exceeded their expectations.
710,000 likes, 196,000 comments, 281,000 favorites, 1,029,000 shares...
This data is a bit alarming.
The most outrageous thing is the number of reposts; while there were only 700,000 likes, there were over 1 million reposts.
This means that this video has a very strong circulation and exchange attribute in the market. Many people are too lazy to like it, but they directly forward it to their friends.
"Huh! The more I watch this streamer, the more familiar he seems!"
"Nannan, isn't this the streamer you watched before who just kept giggling? I remember you even gave him a tip, right? What did he say? Yes, the number one fan!"
Xie Ruonan rolled her eyes at her best friend.
"You're the fairy, you're the ultimate fairy."
"That's the top-ranked female fan, okay!"
Open the comments.
"Are all group streamers this competitive now? These few are all my type."
"The puppy in the center position is highly recommended! That expression is so seductive!"
"Oh no, the hidden gem of a boy has been discovered by the public. The paparazzi standing in the center has amazing character, does regular live streams, and is incredibly good at creating entertaining content."
"My beloved Baekcheol has finally debuted as a member of a group! Hooray!"
"I have to say, when it comes to boy bands, you have to look to Douyin. What are those boy bands in the entertainment industry these days? They have millions or tens of millions of fans all the time, and I don't even know their names."
"This music is so catchy and dramatic!"
"I'm so curious, where do the streamers find such catchy music?"
"That being said, the original version of this song wasn't that catchy; on the contrary, it had a lot of depth and complexity."
Miracle-Puppy: "This song is called 'MENTE MA,' it's really good!"
Real people came down to give it a thumbs up, exuding a familiar business vibe.
Xie Ruonan left the comments section and immediately started listening to music.

Click on any of the first few.
Without exception, they are all dance streamers with hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of fans.
The exclusive entry for "Dao Ma Dao Ma" has garnered a staggering 5 million views for its accompanying videos.
The key point is that there is more than one entry for the term "Dao Ma Dao Ma," with some entries costing tens of millions and others costing hundreds of millions.
This number is still climbing.

Unlike Penguin Music, which has very few and mostly negative reviews, Soda Music occasionally features a few heartwarming and uplifting comments, but most of the content is still "addictive" and "dramatic".
Damn it!
Is this how everyone plays now?
Xie Ruonan calmed her excited emotions, and the man next to her was no longer dejected at all; his eyes were shining.
She doesn't mind listeners saying her songs are catchy or dramatic...
Survival first, then life, and finally nobility and elegance...
In this age of information overload, she has a very clear understanding of the market.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have incorporated brainwashing marketing elements into her first song.
Although the process of fusion was extremely painful and agonizing, at this moment, it was all worth it.
However, all of this happened too quickly.
It happened so fast that it caught her completely off guard.
For a moment, she didn't know what to do.
Just then, her phone rang.
"Your Highness, I have a phone call..."
"Princess, it's a phone call! Your servant is calling..."
The name of the music director of Bole Philharmonic popped up on the screen...
Shen Mo shared a similar feeling with Xie Ruonan.
He knew the video would go viral, but he never expected it to become this popular.
Is this the dominance from higher dimensions?
Click on your own comma.
In less than a day, his followers skyrocketed by over 40000.
53121!
Correspondingly, the data for the several videos he posted showed a significant increase.
The most impressive one is the rehearsal version of the song "Dao Ma Dao Ma".
In less than a day, its viewership surpassed that of "Outside Shen Garden," exceeding 30 million.
Although it lacks the glamorous backgrounds and editing techniques of the team's main account videos, it wins in terms of authenticity.

"Is this the real Dao Ma?"
"The camera is no longer shaky, but for a dance newbie like me, I'm begging the streamer to make a tutorial video."
"I've suddenly discovered a treasure trove! Several of the videos here are so useful, they're practically dance-making machines for streamers."
"Can the streamer's eight-pack abs open a bottle?"
"These guys are way better looking than any boy band member in the entertainment industry! When are they going to do a live stream?! I can't wait!"
……
My own account's data is already pretty impressive, but compared to the main account 【Miracle-H】, it's still too inexperienced.
After a week of live streaming, the main account only had 60,000+ followers.
In less than a day, a single video skyrocketed in popularity.
27+ followers
What the hell is this speed?
Even just a corner of the Heavenly Palace, no, just a corner of the South Heavenly Gate, was enough to make this mortal look up in awe.
"Luckily I reacted quickly, otherwise this incredible surge in traffic would have been wasted." Shen Mo thought to himself with a sense of relief.
He had only seen many people leaving comments in the comment section, but because Gu Qingqing was too busy, there was not a single official response from them.
Based on the principle that the company is my home, I gave a simple reply, which also served as a way to promote the music.
Who would have thought that it would directly bring him more than 40,000 followers.
Judging from the current trend, it's clear that prices can continue to rise.
Bai Zhe and Li Rui, who were Shen Mo's constant followers, were the first to react and went to the main account to "reply" to fans and "promote" the song.
Soon, both of them were laughing so hard their mouths were practically split open.
Gu Qingqing was indeed too busy to pay attention to Shen Mo and the others at that moment.
Despite being a newcomer, she was just as busy as Chen Lin.
"Teacher Sweetie! Okay, okay, thank you for your support. I'll send you the original video right away. We already have the script ready. Thank you for your hard work."
"Business? Just add me on WeChat, and we can discuss it in detail later!"
"We don't have that in mind at the moment. Thank you for your support. We can add each other on WeChat and discuss it in more detail later."
"Brother Fang, put more effort into the keyword entries, and increase the budget by 10%."
"President Lin? Yes, yes, just call me Xiao Gu. For music coordination, you can contact our President Chen directly. President Chen said to contact me directly? Okay, okay, please wait a moment, I'll make a note of it. I'll have President Chen create a group later. You can just send the music link to the group. I'll send the sample videos to the group after they're taken. Please check them carefully."
"Sister Qingqing, there's a time conflict with your live stream schedule in the evening. How do you plan to handle it?"
A staff member ran over.
"Conflict?" Gu Qingqing asked in surprise.
Wasn't the live stream schedule already arranged?
I'm inexplicably irritable.
"Livestream room number 2 was temporarily occupied by quadrant number 7, so Caesar chose number 7."
Holy crap!
