Human beings are essentially repeaters.
The herd effect was particularly evident tonight.
This is the book signing event at Harbour City.
Everyone received news from various channels, saying that Trinity College was more interesting. Fan Wumian was simply going crazy tonight. A Cantonese song "You Hide, I Hide" was enough to trigger a chorus of thousands of people.
Not only were there fewer and fewer audience members, but even many reporters who were just trying to make a living were itching to run to Trinity College to grab the real hot news.
Two songs finished.
I found that not only were there not many audience members in the audience, but some of them left from time to time, leaving only about 200 people in total.
Mai Shuli panicked on the spot and missed the beat. He stood stupidly on the stage for four or five seconds before he continued to sing his hit song haltingly.
The gold medal songwriter who sold the song to him suddenly felt so tired that he sighed.
I thought to myself that this was the reason why he had asked for a high price and was unwilling to sell the song to a newcomer, for fear that the other party would ruin his reputation.
However, Mai Jia was very wealthy, so he bought a few songs after all.
Fortunately, the check has been received. As long as there is no problem with the lyrics and the music itself, and the singer's level is limited, the blame cannot be put on the head of this gold medal composer.
Boss Maggie Cheng has been paying close attention to the situation on the scene.
Originally there were a lot of people in the stands, so I thought it would be a great success. But now seeing the number of spectators getting smaller and smaller, it's clear that something went wrong.
Thinking of his eldest son, who was full of confidence in front of him, Boss Mai's cheeks bulged.
The main reason was that so many relatives and friends were present tonight, which made him feel embarrassed.
Boss Mai had already seen the photos of Fan Wumian's autograph session at Times Square last night in the newspaper. It was so lively, with crowds of people upstairs and downstairs.
Comparing the two, the gap is obvious.
What made Boss Mai most angry was that his own son was so stupid as to take the initiative to change the signing event to tonight.
Isn't it like sticking your face out and getting slapped hard, with a loud slap?
Trinity College.
Before the album "That Girl" was released, Fan Wumian sang "You Hide and I Hide" on the radio. With the release of the album, more people knew about this song.
When he sang on stage——
"What is such a lonely love?
Wrap me with your fingertips
Escape from me with a hot kiss~"
Naturally, many people in the audience started to sing:
"The silent kiss invades my heart
I'd rather tell you in person. You're very tired.
As if I are in your heart except for me
There's one more person
You hide it from me
I also hid that I was too suitable."
The scene was so grand.
Although the audience only followed this part of the lyrics besides "Evening Breeze Blows in My Heart", it was enough to make Fan Wumian overjoyed.
This shows that after just one day, these songs have become very popular.
Even though he was exhausted after singing more than ten songs in a row, Fan Wumian was as excited as if he had been injected with chicken blood, so excited that his hair stood on end.
As a resident singer in a bar, he never dreamed that he would be where he is today.
The show ended with a song called "Crimson Mole and White Moonlight". The background music on the stage was only simple guitar sounds, but Fan Wumian's singing was clean and beautiful, and this new song still amazed everyone in the audience.
Zuo Ziyan asked her mother, "Crimson mole, white moonlight, what does this mean?"
Behind.
Chinese teacher Ning Da helped explain:
"Love that cannot be obtained is called white moonlight, and love that is obtained but lost is called cinnabar mole. This should be from Zhang Ailing's novel "Red Rose and White Rose". He also has a song called "Red Rose". I guess this book gave him a lot of feelings. I didn't expect that Fan Wumian's heart is quite sensitive. The lyrics he wrote are so beautiful. Guess who he was thinking about when he wrote the song?"
Zuo Ziyan just wanted to cover the beautiful teacher's mouth.
next to.
Her mother, Ms. Qiu, pretended not to notice the teasing on her daughter and said with a smile:
"That song just now was also very nice, like the wind blowing over eight thousand miles, the flowing clouds and the moon have all loved you. You are indeed a talented man who can write a column at such a young age. No wonder he has charmed countless girls."
After listening to their words, Zuo Ziyan couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth and chimed in:
"I just said this side is more interesting. Young Master Mai only has a good family background. In terms of talent, he is far inferior to Fan Wumian."
Her mother poured cold water on her, half jokingly and half seriously, and replied:
"Even if everything goes smoothly, if you start from scratch, you may have to be in your 50s or 60s to reach the starting point of Mai Jia, and you have to be very lucky. The gap accumulated by several generations over decades is not so easy to close."
Hear the words.
Zuo Ziyan was unhappy and retorted:
"People don't live just for money. Stephen Chow and Andy Lau's families were also very poor. Who dares to say that they are not powerful now? Moreover, there are many brothers and sisters in the Mak family. It is hard to say how much they can get. As for money, it is enough as long as you have enough. If you value it too much, you will live a very tiring life."
Her mother smiled happily, pointed at Zuo Ziyan and said:
"You still say you don't care? You're a traitor, aren't you? Stephen Chow didn't make much money from filming, and he made his fortune by speculating in real estate. This year he sold his old house for HK$2 million, and then spent another HK$3 million to buy the luxury house at 2000 Poole Road on the Peak. He plans to demolish it and build a house. His business acumen is really good."
Zuo Ziyan immediately replied:
"I say what I mean, not what I think. Don't think I don't know what you are thinking all day long. If anyone dares to interfere in my affairs, I will run away from home."
The audience was very excited.
The reporters were also very happy to hear this, and for once they didn't feel the annoyance of working overtime.
Wait until Fan Wumian finished singing.
Many reporters began to interview people everywhere. Some were busy surrounding Fan Wumian, the noble son from a poor family, while others went to ask the audience about their feelings.
It's predictable.
Fan Wumian's popularity will still be maintained tomorrow. After the past few days of bombardment, at least one-third of the residents of Hong Kong City remember Fan Wumian, not to mention half of them.
During the interview, the reporter also met female fans from the "Fan Wumian Fan Club - Macau Branch". There were more than a dozen girls aged 17 or 18, who came here from Macau by boat today.
There were also third-year students who didn’t buy the album. When they learned that the album would be sold on site, they carpooled from City University of Education in Tai Po. Unfortunately, there were too many people at the scene and they didn’t have the chance to ask Fan Wumian for an autograph.
Too many people can easily lead to trouble.
Fan Wumian had just finished singing a song. Under the arrangement of the discipline director Li Jiagui, he chatted with several representatives of the Education and Manpower Bureau, and then accepted a few words of his feelings in an interview with the media. He was then taken away by several sirs, without giving him the opportunity to win over his fans up close.
That night.
After taking a shower, I sat in front of my laptop.
I accidentally discovered from an email that editor Shangjia Chang said that the first payment of royalties had been deposited into his bank account.
After logging on to the bank's website and checking, I found that there was a total increase of 7 yuan.
Thinking that even though he was very popular in the past two days, the money earned from selling albums would probably not be as much as this royalty fee, Fan Wumian did not know whether to laugh or cry.
However, royalties are basically a one-time income, while fame has the opportunity to bring in continuous income. Fan Wumian did not lose the big picture for the small, and did not go crazy enough to become a full-time writer.
Continue searching for your name.
Gradually, some short messages about tonight’s personal concert on campus appeared on the Internet.
There are hundreds of media outlets in Hong Kong, but their readership is only a few million. In order to attract attention, each of them comes up with a variety of headlines.
For example, an unknown tabloid wrote: "The daughter of Zuo's Real Estate brought her mother to show her support and was overjoyed when she saw her son-in-law. Is it possible for the son of a poor family to become the son-in-law of a wealthy family?"
There is also a newspaper's online platform, titled
——"The eternal second in command, Mai Shuli, the eldest son of Wangcai Capital, was knocked to the ground by Fan Wumian again."
"???"
When Fan Wumian saw this title, he was completely stunned.
I shuddered, not daring to think about it.
I received a notice from Zuo Ziyan in advance today.
Since it was a secret relationship and Zuo Ziyan had no intention of telling her parents, Fan Wumian certainly wouldn't take the initiative to run over and say hello.
Otherwise, you might be seen as trying to flatter others and be looked down upon.
to be honest.
In the adult world, strength still matters. Small fights like these are unlikely to be taken too seriously.
In the entertainment industry, the status of capital has always been higher than that of actors and singers, and the ecological chain is quite obvious.
After reading the news reports that were flooding his screen again, Fan Wumian was very satisfied. However, compared to being famous only in Hong Kong, he hoped to become famous in the mainland as soon as possible.
As the royalties arrived, the financial pressure was suddenly reduced.
Before hiring a large number of online salespeople to hype up the product, he plans to stock up as much as possible. It seems that he can first let the salesmen he hired earlier go out to find buyers.
------------
It's about 8 o'clock in the evening.
Zhuang Muxi still enjoyed seeing Fan Wumian singing on stage again.
Seeing him in all his glory from the stage and listening to his CD with headphones on are two completely different feelings.
After returning home and washing up.
Thinking that Fan Wumian should be next door to him, Zhuang Muxi actually put his face against the wall and pricked up his ears to eavesdrop carefully.
immediately.
Even she herself felt that this kind of perverted behavior was too shameful, so she turned on her computer, went online, and searched for today's news.
Seeing the rumors and speculations about herself and Fan Wumian on the Internet, Zhuang Muxi was worried that if the rumors spread, it would be great if Zuo Ziyan would be angry and run away.
After hesitating for a while, she couldn't help but send a message to Fan Wumian using QQ chat software, writing
——"It's so lively here today. It looks like a big star. Did you see the news? Your future mother-in-law is also here."
Fan Wumian quickly sent her a message, which only said - "Really? Your mother went there too?"
"."
I was teased again.
Although he knew it was inappropriate to do so, Zhuang Muxi was still extremely excited.
I always feel that if I don't hurry up and give it a try, I will just have to watch him and Zuo Ziyan continue to be in love.
After all, it was written in the news that Zuo Ziyan's mother was in the audience tonight, laughing so hard that she couldn't stop, and she didn't seem to mind the scandal between him and her daughter.
After thinking for a while, Zhuang Muxi typed a reply:
"My parents went to Macau for vacation in the evening. They said I was grown up and it was a rare opportunity for us to enjoy our life together. They didn't even take me with them."
soon.
Fan Wumian replied
——"I haven't had dinner yet. I'll go downstairs and buy some food later. Then we can meet at your house?"
Zhuang Muxi was silent for a while, then asked, "Something's wrong with you. Do you really just want to eat?"
No response has been received yet.
After more than 20 minutes, she heard the doorbell ring.
