Chapter 262 Just Consider the Unfilial Son Dead 29
At midnight on November 1st, four songs were released. After listening to the four songs, night owl netizens found that the online discussion was getting more and more heated, even though it was already midnight.
Because there were no opera-style songs in the world before, everyone was shocked when they first heard "One Night in Beijing".
"Holy crap, holy crap, what kind of singing style is this for 'One Night in Beijing'? The moment the female voice came on, I got goosebumps."
"Female voices should be a type of opera, but I don't know which one specifically."
"Can pop songs be combined with traditional opera? I used to think that I couldn't understand those operas at all, so I had no interest in them. But if they were like the ones in 'One Night in Beijing,' I would really like them."
"Indeed, I think 'One Night in Beijing' is quite nice, especially the female vocals."
Night owls often exhibit some perplexing behaviors when they're excited, and before long, the comments section was filled with resentment.
"I usually go to bed at 11:30, but I was woken up by a phone call from a friend after only a short while. I thought he was calling in the middle of the night because something had happened, but it turned out that he asked me to listen to music."
I'll listen to it, but after listening to "One Night in Beijing," I can't sleep. It's still playing on repeat, sob sob... I have a morning meeting tomorrow! Someone help me!
"I'm a female college student, and I share a dorm with three other girls. I'm a night owl, so we all go to bed early for beauty purposes."
Just now, the three of us were woken up by our night owl roommate. The problem is, she was playing "Beijing One Night" on her computer, and we happened to be caught by the dorm inspectors.
Ugh! My awful roommate!
"Hahaha! The people upstairs are really unlucky, but it's okay, everyone has a grudge or two friends!"
For example, I was that kind of friend who always complains. I woke up several of my close friends because this new type of song definitely needs to be shared with good friends as soon as possible!
"Pfft, upstairs, at first I thought you were a victim too, but it turns out you're the perpetrator! Your friends are lucky to have you around!"
I'm quite lucky, even though the song is novel and catchy, I'm still so angry, so angry!
The next day, the popularity of "One Night in Beijing" continued to rise. Of course, the download numbers of the other three songs were also very high, but the level of discussion could not compare with that of "One Night in Beijing".
Many netizens also tagged some well-known opera performers online, asking them what kind of opera the female vocals in "One Night in Beijing" were singing.
These opera performers' Weibo accounts are usually followed by very few people, only a few opera enthusiasts do, since there aren't many people who actually listen to opera. Seeing so many people tagging them was quite surprising.
After clarifying the whole story, some of the more conservative opera masters didn't speak so kindly:
"Traditional opera is a national treasure of our country, an art form that should be protected."
I can't understand how anyone could mix it into pop music and make it into something that's neither fish nor fowl. It's not opera of any genre; it just imitates some opera pronunciation techniques.
Fusheng, you are misleading the public and distorting their aesthetic sense. If future children think this is opera, then you are a sinner!

Some opera enthusiasts believe that we should keep up with the times. Although opera is a national treasure, you can't deny that this industry has begun to decline.
In the past, because people had too few entertainment options, traditional operas, crosstalk, shadow puppetry, circuses, and street performances all had enough room to survive and couldn't possibly lack an audience.
With so many entertainment options available now, people have become more selective. As for plays they don't understand, few people, except for those who are truly passionate about them, will listen to them.
Without an audience, there is no income. Without income, fewer and fewer people will work in this industry. After all, very few people can become "masters," and most practitioners are just trying to make a living.
The traditional opera industry is already so declining, so why can't we find another shortcut? No matter what kind of opera it is, or even just the opera style, as long as there are more audiences, people will eventually trace its origins.
Once more people understand and appreciate what they love, won't this industry be able to continue? To paraphrase a great man, "It doesn't matter if a cat is black or white, as long as it catches mice, it's a good cat!"
Don't worry about the reasons, as long as the result meets expectations, that's all that matters.
Therefore, these opera practitioners hold a supportive view on Weibo.
Regardless of whether people support or oppose it, this song format has emerged and been well-received, so it will only become more and more common, and many songwriters have already begun to study how to write it.
It wasn't until late November that the heated discussion began to cool down, and netizens shifted their attention to Liu Yuxi's other three songs, as well as songs by other artists.
This month, those entertainment companies released two more songs by Qu Die. Unfortunately, the results for this month are already obvious. People's enthusiasm for new things is truly terrifying. "Beijing Night" is now firmly in first place on the monthly chart with a clear advantage.
Following closely behind are "Beijing Beijing" and "Tick Tock," one of which resonated with migrant workers, regardless of whether it's Beijing or anywhere else; you can change the city name and the emotions in the song will still be there.
"Tick Tock" attracts more female listeners. The song has a gentle melody with a touch of sadness, and many girls can easily fall into a loop after hearing it. It's particularly catchy.
The data for "Butterfly Spring" is slightly worse because it is slightly inferior to the other three songs, and the singer is not very well-known. However, this song is currently ranked eleventh on the monthly chart and may break into the top ten at any time.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Liu Yuxi will once again top the monthly rankings this month. If she does it again, she can become a "Father Qu".
Other entertainment companies are having a headache right now. Putting aside the other singers' works this month, even the songs by those two singers didn't make it into the top three. Right now, netizens' attention hasn't been focused on this yet, but once more people pay attention, it will definitely have a negative impact on the singers.
Some companies have already made it clear that they will not release their own songs in the same months that Liu Yuxi releases them. If this continues, how many more times can they target him?
Liu Yuxi doesn't pay much attention to music releases except for occasionally checking online discussions, and only checks the data at the end of the month.
If a song is released next month, I'll promote it on Weibo at the end of the month.
For example, she just promoted the four songs that will be released next month on Weibo.
