Although Yang Yi and Murphy had entered a state of retirement, their "legends" were still circulating in the entertainment industry.
First of all, after the Spring Festival, the large-scale anti-corruption TV series "In the Name of the People" began airing on Jiangnan TV Station's primetime slot. This TV series became popular before it was aired because its scriptwriter was Yang Yi. Even if Yang Yi was currently very popular in China, the ratings of this TV series would not be low!
What's more, its director was Chen Fengchen, and there was a large group of veteran actors who could definitely be called acting masters. Moreover, it was a realistic theme that attracted a lot of attention! When it first aired in February, its ratings broke Jiangnan TV Station's own record!
After that, this TV series caused a lot of discussion on the Internet. Some young people who usually didn't watch this kind of TV series couldn't help but join in the fun. Naturally, at the end of February, its ratings were close to the previous record of "Soldiers' Assault" on CCTV.
Although it was a pity that it didn't break the record of "Soldiers' Assault" in the end, Yang Yi's works once again showed such strong popularity. The discussion about whether Yang Yi could be considered a gold medal scriptwriter was once again rampant.
Next, after entering March, Murphy's new album quietly appeared on the shelves of various music stores without any promotion. She didn't go to major TV stations to participate in singing competitions.
This album, called "Stories of a Small Town," featured slow, old-fashioned love songs. In the album list, in addition to "Stories of Jiangcheng" and "Stealing Time," which Murphy sang in the concert before, there were also many songs that Murphy sang solo, such as "Red Bean," "I Only Care About You," "Just Like Your Gentleness."
Of course, just like Murphy's previous album, Yang Yi also participated in this album!
However, the song that Yang Yi and Murphy sang together in this album was not the song "Full Moon Night" that they sang at the Embassy's Spring Festival Gala. "Full Moon Night" was a song that came out later. Phoebe Studio's Microbroadcasting also promised to release these songs in the form of singles.
In the album "Stories of a Small Town," Yang Yi and Murphy sang "You're the Most Precious." This song was more affectionate than "Full Moon Night." After all, in Yang Yi's previous life, this was a song sung by the God of Songs!
With so many fine songs, Murphy's new album "Stories of a Small Town" naturally showed excellent quality that surprised the fans!
Although its release didn't deliberately create a big momentum in advance, after its release, it was still the album that all the music critics rushed to comment on. Even as early as the end of February, a music magazine ranked the most anticipated album in March. Murphy's new album ranked first on both the "Music Critics" and "Music Fans" lists!
But what surprised the entire music industry and caused a heated discussion was the album's results after its official release!
Because Murphy didn't participate in any TV station's music chart program, the songs of this album couldn't be seen on the New Song Elite List, the Music Power List, and other related lists. But in addition to these lists, Murphy's new songs still showed the performance of dominating the other lists!
On the "New Song Best Seller List," the first song was "Red Bean." Among the top ten songs, Murphy's new songs occupied seven positions!
There was no suspense on the "Radio New Song Chart." The first place was dominated by the confession song "I Only Care About You." In addition, five of the top ten songs were from the "Stories of a Small Town" album.
Of course, the most important list was the "New Album Sales Chart." From the first day of March, "Stories of a Small Town" showed amazing strength. It was far ahead with nearly twice the sales of the second place!
Although many singers chose to delay the release of their albums in order to avoid Murphy's limelight, Murphy's new album showed the same strong performance as her "Say It Yet" album released at the end of the year before last, which shocked the whole music industry, and the music media kept exclaiming "the wolf is coming"!
An album, without much publicity investment, could sell such a performance, which was enough to make people sigh with emotion about Murphy's charm and Yang Yi's strength!
In mid-March, "Stories of a Small Town" broke the platinum record with the sales data of 20 million. Although it was not able to break the record set at the end of the year before last, this terrifying speed still made many media outlets scramble to report it.
In late March, the sales volume of "Stories of a Small Town" had reached an unattainable figure, but at this time, the media had already expressed "aesthetic fatigue" with a wry smile and were too surprised to move.
Of course, these honors were not surprising. Murphy did not accept any media interviews because of this. It was just that Yang Yi and Murphy's fans were too happy. Not only could they buy the new album and twelve new songs that they could slowly listen to and appreciate, but they could also be proud for a long time because of the hot discussion caused by Murphy!
But no matter how well Murphy's album sold and how loud the concert was, Yang Yi and Murphy had no intention of making a comeback.
At most, there were paparazzi who secretly took photos of Yang Yi and Murphy taking Tong Tong to the spring sports meeting held by Xi Xi's school. This was one of the few times they showed their faces during this time.
…
As April approached, Jiangnan TV's variety show "I Am a Singer" welcomed a replacement newcomer. It was a Cantonese singer from Harbor City, Lin Mu 'an. His soulful singing in Cantonese moved many listeners and gained him a lot of fans.
Perhaps it was because of the popularity of his fans in Guangdong and Guangxi, or perhaps it was because his singing voice was very special and soothing, but Lin Mu 'an did not get eliminated even though his ranking in each episode was not high. He continued singing all the way until the battle of the Masked King!
Of course, Lin Mu 'an only sang Cantonese songs after all. Even though his backup singer was his senior brother, Chen Yijie, Lin Mu' an only placed fifth in the end!
Regardless of whether he won the honor of being the Masked King of the Year, Lin Mu 'an's solid singing and unique voice made the entire Chinese audience recognize this special singer, Lin Mu' an!
However, after "I Am a Singer" ended, Yang Yi's Microbroadcasting and Lin Mu 'an's Microbroadcasting both updated their statuses at the same time. All of a sudden, the fans of both parties and many passersby were surprised.
"Let me formally introduce to everyone, Lin Mu 'an, a Cantonese singer from Tianxiang Records. He's also my little brother. Back then, he came to Jiangcheng with his girlfriend and started singing at my coffee shop. Now, he's finally made a name for himself with his own efforts and has realized his dream of' singing Cantonese songs in front of the whole country '! Please support him! "
Yang Yi's Microbroadcasting also included a photo. It looked like it was taken recently. Lin Mu 'an and his wife, Ran Jin, were sitting at a coffee table with Yang Yi and Murphy.
Lin Mu 'an also thanked Yang Yi for his previous nurturing in the Microbroadcasting. He took the initiative to mention that he was introduced to Chen Yijie's company by Yang Yi. He also learned singing from Yang Yi, Murphy, and Yang Yi's producer, Teacher Jin Yingming …
Many mushy words did not need to be repeated. Lin Mu 'an and Yang Yi's Microbroadcasting interaction surprised many media reporters. They thought that Lin Mu' an's participation in "I Am a Singer" was not only due to his own ability, but also due to the operations of Tianxiang Records behind him. However, they did not know that Lin Mu 'an actually had such a relationship with Yang Yi!
However, whether it was the media or the public, they still had a good impression of Lin Mu 'an. Many of the entertainment industry's verified accounts praised Lin Mu' an and Yang Yi's approach. After all, if it was exposed in advance, not only would it make Lin Mu 'an more famous, but it would also affect the final results of "I Am a Singer"!
Now that the dust had settled and Yang Yi and Lin Mu 'an announced it on Microbroadcasting, the friendship between these two capable singers would become a much-told story in the entertainment industry!
