Chapter 250: Weathervane before the Fire - Heartfelt Review
Chapter 250: Weathervane before the Fire - Heartfelt Review
It was said to be the first edition of De m o, but for a music layman like Zhao Xiaojing, it was already quite exquisite and complete. When she heard that it was written by Su Yuchen, she was even more surprised and proud.
But this time Su Yuchen didn't come to show her the video, but to show her the comments.
The keyboard player has been running the band for several years and has been persistently releasing the band's original music on various music platforms and video websites.
But the band had changed lead singers several times before, and everyone was a part-time worker. The music they released was always lukewarm and did not attract many fans, so no one took it seriously this time.
Who would have thought that within just a few days of the video being posted, the number of views had already exceeded tens of thousands, and the number of fans had increased by more than 4,000. When clicking on the music column in the video category, it had even been listed as a recommended video.
"Wow! Is this a hit?" Zhao Xiaojing excitedly glanced at the number of likes and favorites, and couldn't wait to pick up the mouse and scroll down to the comments.
"Oh my god! Look what a treasure band I found!!"
“I predict that this song will be a hit!”
“The composition is amazing. It feels like looking up after a long hike and seeing the forest for the first time. It’s lush and green, full of mystery and vitality!”
"The lead singer's voice really touches me, and it fits the style of the entire band so well. The masters are among the common people."
The more Zhao Xiaojing read, the wider her smile became. Su Yuchen, who was sitting beside her, also had a smile on his face. Even though he had already flipped through the book once, he couldn't help but read along with Zhao Xiaojing when she was reading.
"Sharing songs doesn't really mean anything. The songs that you treasure and cherish are actually largely about your current mood. You think they are so good that you can't wait to share them with important people, but what they hear is just the shell of the song, which itself is not very good. It's like an introduction. Unless the other person happens to be in the same mood and state, he or she will just think the song is too long and wonder why it hasn't ended yet."
“Don’t try to find a perfect person, because next to a perfect person, you are redundant. So love is not about you falling in love with a perfect person. Love is about him becoming perfect after he loves you and being with you. Love is about two imperfect people working together to create a perfect intimate relationship.”
As Zhao Xiaojing scrolled down the comments, long comments with e mo and life sentiments began to appear sporadically. Su Yuchen laughed and pointed at a few of them. "Look, this is a sign that the song is going to be popular."
"Why?" Zhao Xiaojing was at a loss.
“The drummer said that this is called a heartfelt long review, which is a weather vane for the platform. He also said that he had applied for a small account specifically to promote the band’s songs. He would copy and paste these comments under the new songs every time, saying that he wanted to use his own power to drive everyone’s emotions and make the band popular.
The keyboard player's face darkened when he heard it, and he scolded the drummer!" Su Yuchen couldn't stop laughing while talking.
"Why is he cursing?" Zhao Xiaojing asked curiously.
“Because the drummer only copied the most depressing songs, the keyboard player didn’t know it was him and clicked on his homepage to find out that he only followed their band. He thought he was a student who had suffered a lot in life! Later, for fear of affecting his mental health, he deliberately released a few more positive songs. As a result, the person was still depressed. The drummer even sent him a private message late at night to ask him what was wrong! He was afraid that he would collapse soon, hahahaha!”
Zhao Xiaojing was also very happy, "The keyboard player sent him a private message but didn't he explain?"
"He didn't see it at all! He just kept posting his comment, and when he saw the red alert he thought someone liked his comment, and he felt really happy!"
The two laughed.
"Mirror, the keyboard player suggested today that we rehearse one more day per week. I'm thinking of adjusting our profit sharing ratio to 30:70. With this adjustment, I will be absent four nights a week." After reading the comments, Su Yuchen got down to business.
Zhao Xiaojing was originally going to split the store's profits in half with Su Yuchen, but ever since Su Yuchen joined the band, he refused to take half at all, saying that Zhao Xiaojing was the chef after all, and half was not fair, so the two adjusted it to 40:60.
"If you want to do Sanqi, then you can rest at night. Don't be busy with the remaining two days. Stay at home and practice the piano well, and wait until the time is over to eat." Zhao Xiaojing said after thinking for a while.
It was impossible to persuade Su Yuchen not to ask for money, so she simply went along with her wishes and tried to mediate the issue, letting her rest more and have some time for herself at home.
Students are currently on winter vacation, and the takeaway business has also been suspended. Lv Hongwen's family lives in another province, but he has always been reluctant to go home, saying that going home would only lead to daily suppression, so he still lives in school and comes to Zhao Xiaojing's store to help every day. Zhao Xiaojing pays him the same salary as Ouyang Yidan and Wu Kaile, and the store has enough staff.
"Okay, then I won't be polite with you. I will work the longer day shift from now on. When the store is busy at night, just call me and I'll come over." Su Yuchen smiled.
This was considered to be in sync with Su Yuchen again, and both of them made great progress at the same time. Zhao Xiaojing was in a very good mood, and her lips kept curling up unconsciously. After Su Yuchen left, she was happy for a long time before opening the system again to check the new permissions.
Zhao Xiaojing scrolled back the page and saw that after the virtual space, a new module appeared in the system: the excellence evaluation module.
After clicking on it curiously, Zhao Xiaojing's eyes lit up.
This module has two functions, one is identification and the other is optimization.
Identification is to classify all ingredients into five levels: special, first, second, third, and fourth. You can identify the ingredients by opening the module and selecting them.
The optimization module provides optimization options based on identification, which can upgrade the quality and taste of ingredients. However, it costs money, and optimization to different levels requires different prices.
However, you need to spend system coins to upgrade to the special level, and you can just spend money below the special level.
Zhao Xiaojing went straight to the kitchen and brought out a box of strawberries and a plate of cherries.
She bought the strawberries at a roadside stall yesterday. They were small and tasted average. The cherries were brought to them by ** Ping a few days ago. They were sour and sweet and tasted pretty good. Only the last plate was left.
[A box of greenhouse strawberries, quality: level 4.]
[A plate of northern cherries, quality: second grade. ]
While Zhao Xiaojing was staring at the two kinds of fruits in front of her, the quality identification module opened in the system background immediately gave the identification results.
"Strawberry has been upgraded to level one." Zhao Xiaojing recited silently.
[A box of level 4 strawberries originally priced at 20 yuan will cost 100 yuan to upgrade to level 1. Are you sure you want to upgrade? ] the system prompted.
"Can we upgrade half to first grade and half to special grade?" Zhao Xiaojing hesitated for a moment, wanting to see if she could make a comparison. "Please don't apply the ingredients in the article to reality. For example, the strawberries and mutton mentioned later. As a native of the Central Plains, I don't have a clear idea of which variety of strawberries is the most expensive and best, or whether Xinjiang snow goats, Ningxia beach sheep, or Inner Mongolia grassland mutton are the best in the north. I just think that every time I go to the north or buy sheep from the north, they are delicious and not smelly.
Therefore, the article later defines which type of mutton is Grade One and which type of strawberry is Grade One. These are not based on reality, nor on subjectivity, but on the fact that this is a novel.
