Chapter 132 Standing at Thirty

With this cooperation, Gu Ru and Yan Xin chatted more on QQ.

Gu Ru lamented to Yan Xin that in the past few months, she had been invited to sing everywhere, but she had received some works, but the quality was hard to describe.

There are no musical flaws, everything is smooth and stable, showing the qualities that a professional should have.

But the lyrics are ordinary, the melody is ordinary, and there is nothing that can touch people's hearts.

She also said to Yan Xin half-jokingly and half-seriously: "If every song I receive has the quality of your song "Where Has the Time Gone", I don't think I need to quit this circle and can prepare."

You can make money by performing on TV as a singer."

Nowadays, recording records basically costs money, even for well-known singers.

The one who makes money is taking commercial performances, and he can make back the lost money very quickly.

If there were more than ten songs in an album, and each song had the quality of "Where Has the Time Gone", it would really be possible for it to become popular, and she would have the confidence to invest more money in it to promote herself.

It’s too difficult to just rely on one song.

Yan Xin could copy out ten songs to compose a highly popular album for her.

However, I can't find a reason to explain how I wrote these works.

A nineteen-year-old boy needs academic qualifications and experience. This is his biggest shortcoming.

A few days later, when Yan Xin was working the night shift, Gu Ru came to see him again and signed a copyright agreement with him - any future profits from this song would be divided equally between the two of them.

.

On the day the agreement was signed, Gu Ru sang the song again in front of Yan Xin.

Although it's just a cappella singing, it's different when it comes to professional singing. I don't know how many times better than Yan Xin's own singing.

And she really sang the emotion in this song.

This is an emotion that most people can relate to, and it is not difficult to invest in it.

Yan Xin feels that such a singing voice, paired with such a song, should be able to become popular on the Internet.

She told Yan Xin that the arrangement of the song was almost completed, and within a week, she could record the song and put it on the Internet.

Moreover, she also said that in a few days, she would sing this song while singing in a bar to promote the song and test the reaction.

Originally, she was now semi-retired and would only go to the bar to sing every one or two days, both to earn some pocket money and to pass the boring time.

But in order to promote this song and let more people hear it, she decided that in another week, she would continue her previous days of going to various bars every day, and strive to sing this song in every place every day.

Let’s create a song and see if it can create a wave of popularity in a small area.

Putting your songs on an online platform does not mean that everyone on the platform can hear them.

The vast majority of online songs uploaded to the Internet only have a few clicks and will not cause any waves.

If you want more people to hear it, it must be popular and reach a certain number of clicks, so that the platform can recommend it.

In later generations, it was basically the operation of capital.

It's still early in the Internet era, and individuals can still operate it.

Gu Ru is not without any fame. At least in some bars in Yangcheng, she still has some fame. She is also very beautiful and has good singing skills. There is a group of people who like her in a small area.

She can't generate much popularity, but spending a month promoting her song in every bar every day, mentioning the platform where the song is on, and getting tens of thousands of clicks is not a lot.

Difficult things.

The starting point is higher than completely transparent.

If you can mobilize friends in your circle to recommend it, the popularity will be even higher.

This song can be brought to more people.

As for whether this song will become popular, that is not something she can decide. It depends on the vitality of the song itself.

What she can do is bring this song to the Internet.

——Just posting a song on an online platform and getting a few dozen clicks doesn’t mean it’s on the track, it has to be a certain degree of popularity.

Part of the reason why she did this was to fulfill Yan Xin's dream and let more people hear the song he created.

But a bigger part of the reason is probably that the heart that loves singing, or the heart that wants to be a singer, has not completely died.

After signing the copyright agreement for this song, she also treated Yan Xin to a meal, during which she talked about her struggles in the industry over the years, how many record companies she had approached and how many times she had encountered obstacles.

, and finally said with emotion:

"I have been working hard in this industry for almost ten years. In the eyes of some people, I seem to have achieved some success. At least I can support myself through singing and live a good life."

"But, that's not what I want at all."

"Today I sing in front of them, they may like me, but tomorrow if I don't sing in front of them, they will forget me. There are too many people like me. Without my own works, it is impossible to stay in their hearts.

What an impression.”

"I broke up with my family, went to the music conservatory, gave up my good life, and worked hard to earn money to support myself. I did it to realize my dream, not for the tens of thousands of dollars a month of hard work."

"It's just for the money to go to the show, so there is no need for me to work so hard. I can just admit my mistake in front of my parents and help them take care of their business."

"But in the past few years, I have been getting further and further away from my dream. I suddenly lost the motivation to persevere, and then I realized that my parents might be right. I can't go down this road."

"Last year I promised my mother that when I am thirty years old and have not yet made a name for myself, I will give up this thing, go back home, admit my mistakes honestly, listen to their arrangements, and find someone of the right caliber.

, get married and have children.”

"This year, I will be thirty years old."

"They say they stand at thirty. At thirty, I can't still be so childish. I have to grow up. I have to learn to face reality. I have to learn to accept my own failures."

She looked at Yan Xin and said:

"Actually, when I promised my mother, I was already ready to give up. When I talked to you a few days ago, I was so moved by your persistence in your dream that I thought about giving it another try."

"Of course, the main thing is that your song gave me a certain amount of confidence."

"I am happy to be able to leave this piece of work behind."

"I know you want this song to be successful, and so do I."

During that meal, Gu Ru ordered a bottle of red wine. While drinking the wine, she talked and told Yan Xin many stories about herself.

That day, she was a little drunk and even cried while chatting with Yan Xin.
