Although Yang Yi and Murphy did not publicly announce their whereabouts, they did not try to hide it either. In fact, even when they discovered reporters taking photos, they did not mind. At most, they simply picked up Xi Xi and turned her face to the other side as if nothing had happened.
As a result, the next day, the media began to expose news of Murphy and Yang Yi touring around Yang Cheng.
"Shocking news! Yang Yi comes to Yang Cheng for a signing event and she's with him!"
"Mo Fei and Yang Yi went on a night trip to the Pearl River, holding hands so romantically that they made the mandarin ducks jealous!"
"So Murphy, who was on vacation, went to Yang Cheng!"
"Pregnant Murphy makes her first appearance. She looks like a young girl in pink and red hat."
"Yang Yi and his family appear on the streets of Yang Cheng. Murphy smiles brightly, but her belly is still big."
There were also some tabloid media that did not get tired of digging out the restaurants that Murphy and Yang Yi went to. Although not all of them were accurate, they still allowed people to see a side of Murphy that was similar to normal people.
Murphy and Yang Yi's Microbroadcasting updates were actually slower than theirs. As they were busy touring around Yang Cheng, they went back to the hotel to rest. They only slowly uploaded the photos they took when they got home to Microbroadcasting.
It had to be said that women loved to look good. Even Murphy had to carefully edit the photos before she uploaded them. Unlike Yang Yi, even though he taught Murphy the software, Yang Yi did not like to edit photos. On the other hand, Murphy never got tired of it.
Yang Yi sang 'Glory' to his fans at the signing event. On the same day, the song was uploaded onto all the major music websites and released as a single. However, this time, he used his real name.
Murphy had previously told her fans about the news on Microbroadcasting, so her fans were not surprised. In fact, they had been looking forward to it for almost two weeks. When the song was finally released, they couldn't wait to buy it, download it and listen to it online.
Normally, new singers would need a long time to gain recognition from the market. However, Yang Yi was different. On the first day of release, his song made it to the top ten of the new songs chart.
"Everyone says that Yang Yi's singing is very good. Today, I finally got the chance to see it for myself. He is indeed very good. Although the first line's falsetto was a little flashy, I have to say, he sang it really well! "
"His first line alone made my scalp tingle. Was Murphy the one humming in the prelude? I think I can tell that Murphy's voice is very distinctive. "
"It's not just the falsetto. Yang Yi's pronunciation and breathing are very good. He doesn't sound like a fledgling singer at all. Moreover, Yang Yi's voice is also very nice. It has a magnetic quality that makes people unable to stop themselves!"
"A lot of people are analyzing Yang Yi's singing skills. Is there no one who likes the concept of this song? I heard that this song was written by Yang Yi for his supporters. After listening to it, you feel very proud of yourself, don't you think? "
"It's really a blessing to be a fan of Yang Yi and Murphy. He even wrote a song for his own fans!"
However, a few days later, the reviews of the song by the music critics came out one after another. Surprisingly, the reviews of 'Glory' were mixed.
The music critics who said that the song was good praised the arrangement of the song. The melody was simple, but it used a variety of techniques to accompany the voice. Like the arrangement of instruments, it reflected the layering of the vocal area very well.
The music critics who gave the song a bad review were also very interesting. They felt that Yang Yi wrote the song and exaggerated the role of the fans in the content. It was like flattery, trying to use sensational language to gain popularity.
In their opinion, compared to songs like 'Listen to the Sea', the emotions expressed in 'Glory' were too vulgar!
Everyone had their reasons, and the mixed reviews had become a distinct feature of the song.
However, Yang Yi did not care about that. He did not release the song to curry favor with the music critics. Yang Yi did not even care about the sales of the song.
For example, when Murphy released a new song in the past, in order to sell more CDs, she had to work hard to perform on major chart shows. She had to fly to several cities to catch up on announcements and promote. However, Yang Yi did not. His song was released online.
Yang Yi did not participate in any chart shows. He also had Mo Xiaojuan reject all the variety show invitations that came flying at him like paper. In fact, other than his signings, Yang Yi did not participate in any promotional activities.
Many people were puzzled by his maverick behavior.
However, when some gossip media were talking about why Yang Yi did not do anything to promote his song, someone dug out the words that Yang Yi and Murphy said in an interview when they returned from a concert in Guangzhou last month. "... Even if I debut, I will not be a qualified artist. At most, I will release an album and sing for everyone to listen to..."
Sure enough, he was not a qualified artist. The media ridiculed Yang Yi and even compared him to Murphy, who was jokingly called the 'Ice Queen' by the media many years ago. "Compared to his wife, Yang Yi seems to be more aloof!"
Of course, there was no free lunch in this world. All the gains had to be exchanged with hard work.
Yang Yi did not participate in major chart shows and other promotional activities. The negative effects gradually showed.
A week after its release, "Glory" was only at number six on the chart!
Although at the beginning, the song showed a surprising momentum, it was weak and barely climbed to the sixth position. However, anyone could see that the declining daily sales had already destined the song's upper limit!
Regarding this, the emperor was not worried but the eunuchs were worried. Many entertainment media felt sorry for Yang Yi. They felt that Yang Yi's song had the potential to hit number one on the chart (perhaps they were deliberately exaggerating). However, Yang Yi's arrogance stopped the song.
"If Yang Yi was willing to work harder, he might be able to replicate Fei Yu's miracle from 12 years ago. As a new singer, he had a song reach the top of the chart right after his debut!"
The entertainment media felt sorry for him, but Yang Yi did not care.
"You really don't care about the rankings?" Mo Xiaojuan sighed. "I think if you win a big award, our company's reputation will be spread!"
"What does it matter if it's spread or not? Murphy and I only sing because we like to sing. We don't sing for awards or to compete with others for rankings. "Yang Yi smiled faintly.
"Hee hee, I think so too. I don't want to get an award, as long as people like my songs." Mo Fei was very happy next to them and said.
"Sis, you won't be as willful as brother-in-law in the future, right? You're a serious singer, you can't not participate in the chart show! "Mo Xiaojuan asked fearfully.
However, Murphy looked serious. "I'm thinking about this. I may or may not go. It depends on the situation. Anyway, I don't care about these things anymore."
Murphy liked her current free and easy life and work.
"I really don't know what to do with you guys. The husband sings and the wife follows!" Mo Xiaojuan rolled her eyes.
Yang Yi looked at the time and smiled. "It's about time. Go back and rest. Xiaojuan, you've worked hard at today's signing event in Spring City. I'll give you a day off tomorrow. I'm going to take Murphy and Xi Xi somewhere. It's a bit far and we'll have to drive a long way. "
Unknowingly, more than a week had passed since the press conference in Yangcheng. Yang Yi had already held three signing events. Spring City in Caiyun Province was the fourth stop.
Murphy asked curiously, "Aren't we going to Spring City tomorrow?"
Yang Yi shook his head and smiled. "It's in another city, but it's not too far from Spring City."
"Then where are we going?" Murphy's curiosity was off the charts.
Yang Yi's eyes revealed a trace of complicated emotions. Of course, part of it was longing. He said softly, "A home. In another sense, it's a home to me."
