Chapter 206 Do you mind if the three of you are together?
["I Am the King of Singer" charity performance broke record in raising funds! 】
["Tomorrow Will Be Better" was named by CCTV News and evaluated as the best charity song in the 21st century! 】
[The power of high-quality role models, Oh Ye Ge will donate all proceeds from the song. 】
After the charity performance, "Tomorrow Will Be Better" aroused enthusiastic responses on the Internet. Singers in the music industry rushed to repost the singing video and gave it high praise.
On the short video platform, Internet celebrity singers also sang this song and followed suit by organizing a charity donation.
The most successful cover on the Internet is the version sung by a group of children at an art performance.
Compared with the star chorus version, the children's version is more touching. The innocent children's voice is like a clear spring, which perfectly interprets the beautiful wishes in the song.
Dots connect into lines, and lines connect into pieces.

Schools and choirs across the country have organized choruses of the song "Tomorrow Will Be Better" to advocate peace and oppose war.
This song was also mentioned and promoted on radio and television programs from various places. The song spread at an exaggerated speed and it can be said that it became popular all over the country.
Zhao Weiguang's star-studded version of "Human Love" only briefly became popular on the day of the hot search, and after that it was rarely mentioned again. In comparison, it can be said to be a complete failure.
…
…
Yida Records.
Good Luck Studio.
After "Tomorrow Will Be Better" became a hit, the live version obviously couldn't satisfy the audience. Taking advantage of the popularity, Lin Zhixing asked Dong Chen to contact the singers and come to the recording studio to record the official version of the song.
Imitate the original version and record a simple studio version of the MV.
"How are the singers getting in touch?"
Lin Zhixing, who had just returned from guiding the orchestra in the musical instrument room, asked Dong Chen, who was leaning comfortably on the boss's chair and playing games.
"All contacts have been made."
Dong Chen shrugged his shoulders and said, "All the singers have said it, except Guo Jiahe. He said that he will be on the set filming tomorrow afternoon, so he probably won't have time."
Ji Yu said in disgust: "Brother Lin, why don't you take him with you? It feels like it was intentional."
Lin Zhixing pursed his lips and said, "After donating so much money, let's give him another chance. The camera and vocals can be replenished. Just record as scheduled. If he doesn't agree next time, I'll kick him out."
"good."
…
…
Haiyun Records.
Dance practice room.
"Director Zhang, I'm Jiahe. Can I ask you for leave tomorrow afternoon? I really have important things here, and we can't be separated."
"Recording at noon? That's OK, thank you."
Guo Jiahe did have a movie to guest star in, but after much thought, he decided to record "Tomorrow Will Be Better" first.
After all, I am a singer by training, and music is my specialty. But to be honest, he is not very satisfied with the songs he is currently singing in the boy band.
Pure commercialization, dancing and acting are even more important than songs, purely to please female fans...
This song "Tomorrow Will Be Better" is already extremely popular at this stage. He feels that it will not be out of date for decades. It is so meaningful that such a high-quality song can leave his own voice.
…
The next day at half past one in the afternoon.
"Old Sun, drive faster!"
Guo Jiahe, who had just finished shooting and was covered in sweat, trotted into the nanny car. While telling the driver to drive faster, he asked his assistant, "Are your clothes ready for me? I'll change in the car."
The assistant nodded and asked tentatively: "You're ready. Do you want me to touch up your makeup in the car?"
"use!"
Guo Jiahe nodded heavily and did vocal exercises while taking off his clothes.
…
Ten minutes past two in the afternoon.
After Guo Jiahe got off the car, he jogged to Yida Records and asked several people before finally finding the recording studio where Lin Zhixing was.
"Yo?"
Ji Yu, who was going to print out the lyrics sheet, saw Guo Jiahe trotting around the corner of the corridor. She turned to Song Ge and asked, "Is that person who just ran past Guo Jiahe?"
Song Ge nodded and confirmed, "It's him."
Ji Yu chuckled, "Don't you have time to come while filming? This guy is quite arrogant."
Guo Jiahe calmed his breathing at the door, opened the door and walked in.
"This song is really popular, even the kindergarten next to my house is playing it!"
"I have a hunch that this single will definitely break the daily sales record!"
At two o'clock in the afternoon, as agreed, all the singers had arrived and were chatting and laughing. Lin Zhixing was surprised to see him suddenly appear, but he didn't ask much.
After a brief hello to each other, the recording officially began.
After nearly an hour of recording and filming, the singers were very satisfied with the completion.
"Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedule to record."
The singers were not paid any compensation for recording this charity song. Lin Zhixing expressed his thanks and extended an invitation to a meal.
Fang Jian didn't like to join in the fun, so he politely declined: "Xiao Lin, I have something to go back to the company for, so you can go."
"How about we change the date?"
Seeing that none of them wanted to go, Lin Zhixing smiled and nodded, "That's OK, let's make an appointment next time."
"Goodbye Xiaolin!"
"Goodbye Sister Jiawei, goodbye Brother Jiang..."
The singers all left one after another. To Lin Zhixing and others' surprise, Guo Jiahe actually stayed in the recording studio, as if he had other matters.
"The inner one..."
Guo Jiahe pointed at the camera, his eyes evasive and said: "There was a place I was not very satisfied with just now. I want to retake it."
Wasn’t it very reluctant before? Did you take the wrong medicine today?
Lin Zhixing nodded incomprehensively and patted Dong Chen on the shoulder, "Go and re-record."
Ji Yu rolled her eyes and complained in her heart, "Idols have too much baggage."
…
…
After the single album was completed, Lin Zhixing posted a teaser on Weibo that night.
["Tomorrow Will Be Better" single album, the digital version will be released at 6 o'clock tomorrow night, and the physical version will also be available for pre-sale! If you like this song, please support it! 】
All the singers who participated in the recording retweeted this Weibo post, except for one. That person was not the arrogant Guo Jiahe, but Fang Jian.
The reason for not forwarding it is simple, because he does not have a smartphone...
The next day, at six o'clock in the evening.
In a high-end apartment.
Guo Jiahe sat in front of the computer early, smoking and browsing Weibo, browsing the topic "Tomorrow will be better", and occasionally a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Half an hour later, he couldn't help but open Penguin Music, Mad Dog Music, and Wanwanjingting, the three major music platforms in China, and checked the sales of "Tomorrow Will Be Better".
In the Internet age, digital albums are mainly viewed, and physical albums are bought for collection. He does not pay attention to the pre-sale situation.
Penguin Music sold 390,000, Mad Dog Music sold 165,000, and Wanwanjingting sold 81,000.
The combined sales of the three major music platforms exceeded 636,000 in half an hour?
Guo Jiahe's eyes widened in disbelief and he took a deep breath.
This is not the end. At 6:30 in the evening, the office workers are still on their way home, the students have just arrived home to start eating, and the nightlife has just begun...
Most of the people who bought the album in the first half hour were die-hard fans, as well as music critics who couldn't wait to post their reviews online.
In the past half hour, some music critics have organized and posted articles on Weibo, and die-hard fans have also begun to share their listening experience of the official version on the Internet.
When office workers and students started surfing the Internet after dinner, they happened to see these fresh music reviews and listening experiences, which triggered a second wave of purchases.
Sure enough, according to data, sales gradually increased around 7:30 pm.
At ten o'clock in the evening, the sales volume of "Tomorrow Will Be Better" on the three major platforms had reached a terrifying 1.5 million.
The four-hour album sales is Guo Jiahe’s best-selling album in four days.
He couldn't believe his eyes and pounded the table with excitement.
"It's incredible!"
After Guo Jiahe calmed down a little, he curiously opened the comment area to see what netizens had to say.
[Catchy lyrics, warm melody, a rare masterpiece among charity songs! 】
[It has been set as an early morning alarm clock. A gentle wake-up call is what I want! 】
[That sounds great. I didn’t watch the live broadcast last night. I used the money I paid for the song as a small donation. 】
Guo Jiahe browsed through the comments section for twenty minutes, but there was not a single negative comment on the song. This was the first time he had seen a song with zero negative comments.
…
At 11 o'clock in the evening, sales reached 1.85 million, and there is a high possibility of breaking 2 million before midnight.
Guo Jiahe clicked on the fan group, hesitated for a while, typed a line of text and sent it.
[There will be prizes for purchasing the digital album "Tomorrow Will Be Better". Use the screenshot of the purchase to find the administrator and draw 100 copies of the physical signed album! 】
When they learned that they had a chance to get a physical signed album from their idol, female fans went crazy. Fan groups of all sizes began to forward the album, and the sales of the album, which had been slowing down, once again ushered in a slump.
At midnight.
"Tomorrow Will Be Better" sold 2.03 million in six hours.
Although it has a public welfare nature, and some people buy the song to show their love, this cannot hide the fact that it broke the single album sales record in the Chinese music industry.
"boom!"
Guo Jiahe opened a bottle of champagne and poured it into a glass. Then he walked to the mirror and raised his glass with a smile.
"Here's to you, a milestone singer in the Chinese music scene!"
…
…
Early next morning.
The news that "Tomorrow Will Be Better" broke the single sales record in the Chinese music industry within 12 hours and became a milestone has spread throughout the music circle.
"Brother Lin, you are so amazing. Your song broke the single sales record in the Chinese music industry!"
Dong Chen came to the dining table holding his mobile phone and dancing excitedly.
Lin Zhixing glanced at the phone, swallowed the bun in his mouth, and nodded, "It's good. If the sales are good, we can help more people in need."
"Brother Lin, are you too calm?"
Dong Chen slowly repeated word by word: "You broke the music industry's single sales record!"
"Record?"
Lin Zhixing raised his eyebrows and said calmly: "Records are meant to be broken. I will take action in the future."
"6!"
…
…
Outside Jincheng Art College.
A black Mercedes-Benz stopped slowly. After Lin Zhixing got out of the car, he hugged a man excitedly.
"Old Liu!"
"The third child, a big star, the car is so handsome!"
The man hugging Lin Zhixing was his former college roommate Liu Junjie.
"Hello, Song Ge!"
"Hello."
Lin Zhixing and Song Ge returned to their alma mater this time at the invitation of the principal and teachers to give a class to the alumni, talk about Chicken Soup for the Soul, and shoot a campus-themed MV.
"I heard that you have become the guidance counselor of our school?"
Lin Zhixing put his arm around Liu Junjie's shoulders. Even though they hadn't seen each other for several months, the brothers were still affectionate.
"Yes, I prefer campus to the workplace."
Liu Junjie smiled and nodded, "I'm not busy at ordinary times. If I live, it's close to the school. My family lives in the teacher's apartment."
"Good."
While Lin Zhixing was chatting, his eyes were attracted by the scene at the school gate.
It was midsummer, and a woman in spring and autumn clothes stood out. There was a human-shaped sign next to the woman. Every time male students left the campus, they stayed away from her.
Just now, an unsuspecting male student was forced to stage a chase.
"What's going on over there?"
Lin Zhixing pointed with his finger and asked curiously.
Liu Junjie smiled and said, "You have become a big star now, so you don't follow our school's group chats and posts anymore, right?"
Lin Zhixing raised his hand and punched him, "It's not because of my celebrity status that I don't watch, it's because I don't have time."
"Super big melon, you don't know!"
Liu Junjie explained: "That crazy woman is Li Zhenzhen."
"Li Zhenzhen?"
Lin Zhixing and Song Ge looked at each other, both very surprised, "Why has she changed like this?"
"She and the guy named Zhang Long have never made any progress in music. I heard that Zhang Long seemed to be stimulated by something some time ago, so he disbanded the group and went into business. During the business process, he got close to another woman."
"I heard that Li Zhenzhen was two months pregnant at the time and had a miscarriage after being stimulated. She also had mental problems. She held Zhang Long's sign every day and went crazy at the school gate. The security guards couldn't do anything to her."
After hearing what Liu Junjie said, Lin Zhixing felt a little complicated at the moment.
Is retribution coming? After abandoning your boyfriend because of your new love, you will eventually be abandoned by your boyfriend who has a new love?
As I approached the school gate, I saw clearly that the human-shaped signboard was indeed Zhang Long.
Li Zhenzhen's hair was as messy as dead grass, her face was pale with blue blood vessels exposed, and her makeup was so thick that it looked like she had been shaved off a layer of putty, making her unrecognizable without looking closely.
Seeing how miserable she was now, Lin Zhixing felt no pleasure at all. It was a bit self-inflicted to play a good hand like this.
Inadvertently, their eyes met...
Li Zhenzhen was stunned for a moment, then smiled crazily and stepped forward to grab Lin Zhixing's arm, "Do you mind if the three of us are together?"
Lin Zhixing: "..."
"You are so crazy! Get out of my way!"
Liu Junjie suppressed a smile, raised his big foot, and kicked Li Zhenzhen away, scaring Li Zhenzhen away.
After Lin Zhixing walked into the campus, he smiled bitterly and shook his head.
The soul-swapping buddy is really a complete clown!
It can be seen that Li Zhenzhen regretted it at a certain moment, but the moment she regretted it did not seem to be the moment she broke up with her.
But... regret rejecting the threesome? ? ?
