Chapter 345: Many Hands Make Light Work

In the music circle, a senior musician wrote this on his Weibo:

"Luo Quan's talent is innate. This cannot be learned or copied, and it has little reference significance.

But the arrangement method of each of her songs is worth learning and referring to by all musicians. Ordinary people may not be able to see where her arrangement method is good, but listening to her songs just makes people feel good and catchy.

On the one hand, the melody is indeed good, and on the other hand, it also stems from her mature and exquisite arrangement means.

I have always felt that the gap between Chinese pop and the Western music scene is not as big as imagined. Because the cultures are different, the lyrics we are proud of cannot resonate with Westerners, and they don't have many special requirements for writing lyrics themselves, as long as they rhyme.

And in terms of melody, I think we are not inferior to others.

But the reason why it presents a different level is mainly because the arrangement of Western pop is too outstanding. They will add a lot of elements to the song to enrich the work. From a song, you can not only feel the song and lyrics, but also hear the accompaniment made with rare timbres. These are important factors for a song to be good.

Most domestic songs are too simple, and the arrangement is really weak. Except for Luo Quan, her arrangement means are even more exquisite than most Western musicians.

This song 《Warm》 is a very typical example. The lyrics are sweet, the style is cheerful, and the accompaniment details are full. Although the theme is a street-worn love song, the content is not empty at all. Online, people say it is mediocre, but that is only compared to Luo Quan's great works. If you really compare it with these love songs in China, it is also a level of random killing!

In any case, Luo Quan is already far ahead of all Chinese people in the field of pop music. Perhaps 《Xiao Bang in November》 still cannot achieve too much in the international arena, but I believe that in the future Grammy, Luo Quan will inevitably win awards until her hands are soft!"

This evaluation, among so many praises for Luo Quan, can be considered a relatively solid one. More of it is praising Luo Quan's technology, but outsiders basically just watch the fun.

Insiders might understand, but I don't know how many really think about it carefully.

However, no matter how the circle views Luo Quan's new songs, whether it is technology or pulling hips, anyway, the popularity brought by 《Warm》 is not much lower than 《Nocturne》.

Two songs, one cold and one hot, are also Luo Quan's first attempt at this kind of sweet love song with a little girl's tone. This kind of song has an unusually huge lethality to girls around twenty, especially those girls who are in the middle of a hot love, basically belonging to the kind that can't stop after listening once.

By twelve o'clock the next day, the sales volume of the record increased again, with 9.06 million singles sold and 2.41 million records sold!

With the record selling so well, the authorization fee paid by Penguin Music to Luo Quan has already been earned back. There are still eight songs left, and no matter how many are sold, half of the profit after paying taxes will be profit!

According to the estimates of the data department, the total sales of 《Xiao Bang in November》 this time will likely exceed 15 million!

However, 《Coming-of-Age Ceremony》, which is several times more expensive than this, has now sold 20 million copies in Japan, showing that the market scale of the two is really not ordinary.

Luo Quan calculated with a calculator herself. After the album sells well this time, the money she can finally get is about 300 million, which is not much or little.

Of course, for most people, this is already an astronomical figure that eighteen generations of ancestors cannot earn. However, her current income is basically in US dollars. 300 million RMB is equivalent to more than 40 million US dollars, equivalent to the price of composing theme songs for four movies.

Thinking about it this way, it doesn't seem like much!

Luo Quan smiled and opened Bilibili, intending to see how far the crowdfunding had progressed. Although she didn't think it could succeed, after all, it was about her first swimsuit photo album, so she still had to pay attention.

I didn't know until I looked. Looking at the crowdfunding video, the views had already exceeded 4 million, and this was in less than a day!

And there is a link in the video introduction, leading to a personal column. At the top of the column is an ID photo, but only the portrait and name are visible, and the address and number are covered.

Below is the phone number, WeChat, and Alipay payment code. Below that is a photo, a photo of a bank card deposit, with eye-catching red text marked next to it: Current amount raised (RMB)!

Luo Quan looked at the number, good guy, it was already over 32 million!

And every minute, this column would be modified once. It was 32,783,050 just now, and after this refresh, it was already 861,120.

"Is it rising so fast?" Luo Quan frowned. She counted with her fingers. If it increases by 30,000 per minute, it is 1.8 million per hour, and 43.2 million per day. To raise 100 million US dollars, it seems that it only takes less than twenty days to complete.

However, can this rate really be maintained? Luo Quan expressed deep doubt.

Flipping down to the comment section, the first comment was the author of this column, nicknamed "Eyed Xiahou Dun who pecks eyes", which was the ancient big boss with UID 66 in the previous video.

The content of the comment is:

"Partners of justice, this is my identity information, as well as my bank deposit. The home address and ID number are temporarily inconvenient to disclose, but if necessary, I will not cover them up.

When Luo Quan promised in the morning, the US dollar exchange rate was 6.67. 100 million US dollars is 667 million RMB. Now it has only taken half a day to reach one-thirty-third!

Everyone contributes money if they have money, and effort if they have effort. Persistence is victory.

Of course, if it really can't be raised, then this money will also be fully refunded."

The comment section below became a large-scale wealth-showing scene. The number of likes was arranged according to the amount of fundraising. There were big local tyrants who took out millions like "Eyed Xiahou Dun who pecks eyes", many small local tyrants who took out tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, and many true love parties who took out hundreds or tens of dollars.

As this event is about to go out of the circle, there will only be more and more people fundraising.

The reason why it is said that it is about to go out of the circle is because Luo Quan immediately went to Weibo and Zhihu to stroll around and found that many people were already discussing it, but it hadn't reached the trending search list for the time being.

However, paper can't wrap fire after all, not to mention the otaku fire accumulated over so many years of being single.

Finally, its figure appeared in the fourth place on the Zhihu trending search list: "How to view Bilibili crowdfunding 100 million US dollars to let Luo Quan shoot swimsuit photos?"

The popularity is as high as over 50 million, even more topical than the new album release.

Highlighted answer:

"No more words, I've already charged.

(Picture: A transfer record of 3 million RMB)

My family is in the catering chain, not super rich. The lucky money saved over the years, as well as the pocket money given by my father, mother, uncle, and uncle, saved more than 5 million.

Playing games and buying figures spent more than 2 million one after another. Now seeing this crowdfunding news, I regret why I can only give so little."

Second highlighted answer:

"This year, there are only a few hundred thousand pocket money left. The rest were all used to buy various clothes, bags, and cosmetics for my girlfriend. Today, seeing Luo Quan's crowdfunding news, I am ready to donate all the rest.

My girlfriend saw it and had a big fight with me, saying that I usually find your mother to buy a bag for a few thousand and you push back and forth, but you spend hundreds of thousands on this woman without blinking an eye?!

I broke up with her directly.

This woman? Do you deserve to compare with the dignified world's number one beauty?

Now that I think about it, Luo Quan is good, beautiful, sings well, and can cook. Usually, you don't need to buy anything. If you miss her, you can watch videos and listen to songs, and she won't lose her temper for no reason.

Compared to this, I think Luo Quan is my girlfriend. I think these hundreds of thousands are spent too worthily!

Brothers, do you think I did the right thing?"

In the comment section of the second answer, it can be said to be a light of the right way. Of course, it is not that there are no opposing voices:

"I agree with most of it, but you are wrong about one point. Luo Quan is my girlfriend."

"Is this still the Zhihu I am familiar with? Where did the previous high quality and high quality go? Saying such childish words for a woman, and for my woman!"

"As everyone knows, Luo Quan is every man's woman."

"The outside world is so scary, everyone is thinking about how to grab my wife."

"Large-scale exchange scene for peach suppliers."

"I didn't expect Zhihu to have so many NTRs."

"I feel the theme is a bit crooked. Isn't it the question of how to view crowdfunding Luo Quan to shoot photos?"

"Do you still need to teach this? Give as much as you have. When the swimsuit photos come out, open your eyes and watch for me!"

"I won't watch, I'll lick directly."

"Add one, not very good at licking."

Confucius once said: Eating and sex are human nature. It can be said to be the two most basic desires of human beings. Of course, these four words were not originally about appetite and sexual desire, but in fact, it is not inappropriate to understand it wrongly like this.

This point can actually be verified in many fields. For example, Hollywood commercial blockbusters can always see the protagonist accompanied by beauties, new car sales venues will always see beautiful car models next to luxury cars, and the annual Victoria's Secret show has always been a big show with the highest ratings and topicality.

Therefore, liking GHS is really nothing to be ashamed of, because everyone likes to do it. How many saints in this world can truly achieve the prohibition of desire?

Therefore, Zhihu, which has always been known for its high-quality and high-quality answers, now seems to have become a base for lecherous fans. One by one, the answers have all become like idiots, which is really shocking.

However, not all answers are so funny and interesting. When the news of crowdfunding became big, there were also many discordant voices:

"Isn't this reaching out to fans for money? And it's a lion's mouth. 100 million US dollars to buy a set of photos is unheard of throughout the ages."

"What about the pure goddess? Don't you want the persona?"

"Don't ever say Luo Quan won't hype in the future. Isn't this quite good at hyping?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, crowdfund 100 million US dollars, how many fools will be fooled."

"Fan economy is like this. Idols cry poor on the internet, and then live a life above others with fans' money."

"What is the difference between this and those local tyrants in the live broadcast rewarding female anchors, hoping for a boss's generosity?"

"The world is going down, and people's hearts are not ancient."

Sharp comments came one after another.

However, Luo Quan dared to sit and watch things get big, naturally, she had a statement in her heart long ago, and directly published a long article on Bilibili:

"It's been a long time since I published such an article to defend myself. I won't say any fart words about money being like dung here. Who doesn't like money? It can turn white into black, ugly into beautiful, and wrong into right.

I also like money, but I won't use illegal ways to get money. As for this crowdfunding, fans are willing to give it. If I don't accept it, I'm afraid someone will say I'm fake and noble.

In fact, the key to the problem lies in this crowdfunding. It was indeed a flag I set up when my brain was hot, but since the words have been spoken, and it was in the live broadcast room, I have to be responsible.

Is crowdfunding illegal? Is shooting swimsuit photos illegal? Neither is illegal, so why can't it be done?

In addition, regarding the persona, the only persona I have admitted on the internet is the world's most beautiful. If you find any place where you can refute me, show it, and I will admit it.

As for other geniuses, pure personas, don't put them on my head.

In addition, I have always felt that life is only a few decades, and I will be old if I am not careful. Time does not forgive people, especially women.

If I don't take this opportunity to shoot a few photos of youthful invincibility and show my infinite charm, who will believe that this old woman was once the world's number one beauty after decades of crane hair and chicken skin?

Finally, clarify one point. I am not short of money. If I really want money, I won't use this method. 《Xiao Bang in November》 is selling well. Isn't it perfect to let fans support me through this channel?"

This time, Luo Quan's defense followed her consistent sharp tone, responding to all the criticisms against her. However, this time there was a little less sarcasm, and the confidence was quite sufficient.

Anyway, in her opinion, she has a clear conscience for what she has done. The only mistake is that she set a flag when her brain was hot.

But shooting swimsuit photos is not a rebellious thing now. Which of these female stars on the internet hasn't shot this stuff?

Blame her previous conservative image for being too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. A slight change has attracted so many people to sing the opposite.

However, this little storm cannot affect the good sales of her new album.

In the evening, Luo Quan released the third song of her new album: 《Hair Like Snow》.

Once the song was released, it caused a sensation again.

Since 《Blue and White Porcelain》 and 《A Laugh in the Sea》, this is Luo Quan's third Chinese-style song.

Before this, this type of song in China was very rare, and more of it was ancient style.

The appearance of Luo Quan undoubtedly filled the gap in this area and greatly raised the upper limit of this type of song.
