"Hehe, My Dear" was a fierce horse that had burst onto the scene at the end of the season. It charged forward like a hot knife through butter.
On June 25, "Hehe, My Dear" broke 1.7 million downloads. It broke into 20th place.
On June 26, it broke 1.9 million downloads. 18th place.
At this time, he was still able to maintain such an increase. Everyone's glasses dropped to the ground in shock. It even forced many companies to activate emergency plans and open up more channels for their singers that they hadn't intended to give to newcomers.
For example, when the company saw that the momentum was off, they quickly gave the singer a push and transferred the channels they had originally planned for other stars. That singer jumped to 14th place overnight.
Those who had been pushed down the rankings were dumbfounded. They hurriedly contacted their companies and applied for more channels.
Some companies were willing to use a few channels to give them a push, but others thought it wasn't worth it. They would use their channels on more important people. Newcomers were fine.
The rock Fang Zhao had tossed out had stirred up a pond.
On June 27, "Hehe, My Dear" broke 2.2 million downloads. It was 12th place, only three digits behind 11th place. At this time, the tenth place on the chart had 2.4 million downloads.
A gap of 200,000 downloads!
Three days left!
Zeng Huang was even more excited than Fang Zhao. He contacted Fang Zhao. "Big Zhao, you're about to overtake Fang Sheng!"
"Yeah." Fang Zhao was brushing his dog's fur in his little house on the black street. After shaving, the dog had regrown nearly two centimeters of fur that was slightly curly. He went to ask the owner of the pharmacy why the dog's fur grew so fast, but the owner couldn't tell him the reason. He only said that some dogs were special. After doomsday, animals did have some special conditions, and the reason for the fast fur growth might be that.
Fang Zhao's calmness didn't dampen Zeng Huang's excitement. "Big Zhao, based on your current momentum, you'll overtake him tomorrow or the day after, right? I heard a lot of people say that 'Flight' is flawed. "
"Yeah."
Zeng Huang had wanted to criticize Fang Sheng's song, but when he remembered that the song had been composed by Fang Zhao himself, criticizing the song would be like slapping Fang Zhao in the face. This was f * cking awkward.
Sensing Zeng Huang's awkwardness, Fang Zhao said, "He couldn't win because of the arrangement. He only stole the score and demo, but there was a problem with the arrangement. "
"This … Is that so? So that's how it is. Haha, Fang Sheng's arrangement skills aren't that great. It must have been arranged by someone from Neon Culture. It's just that there was a gap in communication between the two parties. "Although Zeng Huang wasn't a composer or arranger, he knew a thing or two about it.
An arranger would communicate with the composer during the arrangement to better understand the composer's thoughts, goals, style, and so on. But what Fang Sheng had stolen was only the score and a demo. It was incomplete. As for the feelings and inspiration for the song, even if he could get information from the original owner in advance, it would not be as deep as the composer's feelings for the song.
The arranger Neon Culture had arranged for Fang Sheng, a newcomer, was clearly not one of the best. As a result, the song did not shine to its full potential. If it wasn't for that, Flight would not only be ranked tenth on the leaderboard. It would have risen a few ranks.
What a pity.
Zeng Huang thought it was a pity too. But seeing Fang Zhao on the verge of overtaking Fang Sheng, Zeng Huang was happy and sad at the same time. The few of them had grown up together, but in the end, they had reached this point.
June 28, 1 a.m.
Fang Sheng's face was as stiff as a rock. He stared blankly at the jumping numbers on the screen. The leaderboard changed with each passing point. Fang Zhao had long since made it to No. 11 and was about to catch up.
Ever since Fang Zhao had entered the competition, Fang Sheng hadn't had a good night's sleep. He had nightmares every night. He often dreamed that he was standing on the surface of the ocean, the bottomless blue water beneath his feet. A giant sea beast suddenly leaped out of the water, opened its mouth full of sharp teeth, and lunged for him. There was no way to avoid it.
Wasn't reality exactly the same?

Fang Sheng's face was ashen. His lips twitched, and the hand holding the bracelet trembled violently.
"I lost … Hehe, I still lost …"
Smack!
The shiny bracelet he'd bought after signing with the new company was flung to the ground, shattering into pieces.
Neon Culture wouldn't give Fang Sheng another promotional channel. Fang Sheng had already applied for one when he sensed Fang Zhao's approach. The company wouldn't approve any more.
A big company with lots of potential and big-name stars had limited resources to spend on a newcomer. If Fang Sheng fell behind, the company couldn't be blamed.
Neon Culture did value Fang Sheng. After all, he'd made it to the top of the leaderboard. But it was a lie to say they valued him especially. The company's main fighting force for newcomers was the virtual idol they'd launched this year. Everyone else was lagging behind.
The difference of one rank between No. 10 and No. 11 was like the difference between heaven and hell for Fang Sheng.
As the sun rose, a busy day resumed.
Inside Silver Wing Tower.
Fang Zhao was summoned by Du Ang early in the morning to discuss the signing of the contract. Fang Zhao had squeezed into the top 10 and was on his way to No. 9. No matter what, he was guaranteed a spot in the top 10 and a promotion was guaranteed.
Du Ang was in a good mood. He didn't yell at Fang Zhao for once. Instead, he beamed at Fang Zhao. During the contract negotiations, Du Ang had helped Fang Zhao secure some benefits, so things had gone smoothly.
"Have you seen the company's message board?" Du Ang asked.
"Message board? Never seen it. " Fang Zhao searched his memory for some information about message boards, but it wasn't much. Presumably, the original owner of the body didn't have much contact with them.
"Go check it out. You've got a lot of messages."
Following Du Ang's directions, Fang Zhao logged onto the company's official website and entered the message board.
The first few messages were mostly from the company's biggest stars. Fang Zhao searched his name and clicked on it. Indeed, he had a lot of messages. Not as many as the big names, but as a newcomer, a thousand messages was a lot.
Fang Zhao left the company and boarded a train back to the suburbs. When he got on the train, Fang Zhao clicked on the message board and listened to the messages.
Because Fang Zhao was only an intern and hadn't officially signed a contract, fans could only leave messages on the message board, not gifts. Some people left text messages, while others left voice messages. However, they could all be used in "listening" mode.
Fifth comment: "Why does it have to have the 'hehe' in the front? Without the 'hehe' in the front, this song will be a notch better. Why didn't Silver Wing release an edited version? "
Sixth comment: "What a joke. Why would Silver Wing release an edited version? Someone at my school played the song without the vocals in the front. Someone booed him and told him to play the full version. You, on the other hand, despise it. You're just like our predecessors: What you can't have is forever restless. What you have is discarded like a pair of worn out shoes. "
...
Twelfth comment: "I don't care. I like the original version. Anyway, with it, I don't even doze off in class. All I care about is spacing out."
Fang Zhao had seen some of the online discussions, but he could see that Silver Wing's operations team was behind the scenes setting the pace. Discussions could also boost popularity.
That laughter wasn't from the original Fang Zhao's diary, but it was something the original Fang Zhao had done before writing the diary. Speaking of which, Fang Zhao had to admit that Silver Wing's signing of new singers went through a strict process. Even if Bei Zhi had dropped the ball before, he had to admit that Bei Zhi was very talented. Coupled with Bei Zhi's experience, he could sing this song better than others.
After paying attention to the audience's reactions, Fang Zhao felt a lot more at ease. His arrangements were still accepted by the public. This way, didn't that mean that his own work could be released?
He continued listening.
...
51st comment: "Almost missed this song. Saved and downloaded."
52nd comment: "Ha, I almost missed it too. When I first heard this song, I was so startled by the laughter in the front. What the hell is this? Ten seconds later, eh? The prelude seems pretty good. Let's listen again. After listening to it … hehe, my dear ~ hehe, my dear ~ "
...
Someone leaked that Fang Zhao's inspiration for this song came from his experience of being dumped. This made many people understand the song.
129th comment: "I heard that Fang Zhao composed this song after being dumped by his girlfriend. If I could compose a song like this, I would be willing to be dumped by my girlfriend!"
130th comment: "To the one above, first of all …"
131st comment: "You have to have …"
132nd comment: "One …"
133rd comment: "Girlfriend …"
...
272nd comment: "For a man, the most helpless thing is to meet the girl he wants to take care of for the rest of his life when he is at his most powerless. I don't know who Fang Zhao is, but I feel that I can empathize with his feelings. "
...
316th comment: "Keep it up, bro. On the 15th, I bet all my pocket money on you. I bet you can make it to the top 10! This is my final act of willfulness before graduation! Now, I'm counting my money! I support you!! "
...
429th comment: "Don't be afraid. Even if the whole world abandons you, Fang Zhao, you still have music!"
...
500th comment: "Senior Fang Zhao, keep it up! — Qi 'an Academy of Music's fifth-year arrangement department. "
...
Fang Zhao gazed at the busy city outside the car window and smiled. "Don't worry, this is just the beginning."
