After being defeated by Qingmei, I became a top player

The speed at which "Songs of Ordinary People" spread was beyond the expectations of the "Season of Songs" program team.

In fact, every time "Song Season" is broadcast, the program team keeps an eye on the hot searches, wanting to know the audience's real-time feedback on the program.

You mean watching the barrage?
That's impossible. The things on the barrage are too messy and chaotic. Most of them are just a few words that the audience said casually after watching the show.

If you really want to do some statistics, you will find that the information at the top is useless.

For example, "666", "awesome", "nice to hear", etc.

Hot searches are different. The popularity of hot searches is calculated based on the topics that netizens bring up when they post.

Whenever someone posts something, it must be after careful consideration. Even if they are excited at the moment, they would not just post a '666'.

Therefore, the program crew prefers to observe hot searches more than barrage comments, but after filming so many episodes of the show, the program crew has not seen any singer who will rush into the top ten hot searches in less than ten minutes after singing.

The most important thing is that multiple topics came up at the same time.

what does this mean?
This means that either the company behind the singer is spending a lot of money to increase the popularity, or that person is about to become famous.

If this happened to anyone else, the program team would think that the company behind the singer was trying to create hype.

But this happened to the singer who was least likely to become popular.

Because no matter what he did, he couldn't successfully resurrect.

The rules of "Song Season" do not include audience votes, in order to prevent things that are out of control from happening.

For example, Ji Wenzhi this time.

In the eyes of some people, what Ji Wenzhi did was wrong. In their eyes, since there was no hope of advancing, he should just show up and sing a song.

Struggling and resisting are both wrong.

But these people don’t know that even a fool will choose to struggle when falling into a pool, let alone a normal person.

These normal people usually don't resist because they have concerns and are suppressing themselves.

But if we assume that they will not resist, we would be wrong.

When that time really comes, those high and mighty people will know one thing: in the face of the 'truth', all beings are equal.

The influence of Ji Wenzhi's "Song of Ordinary People" is still spreading.

At first, it affected those who watched the show, but later it affected those who did not watch the show but saw the trending searches.

Li You is one of the people who was attracted to the show by the hot search.

Guided by the trending searches, Li You went to watch "Season of Ballads", pulled back the progress bar of the live broadcast, and listened to the song "Song of Mortals".

Until the end of "Song Season", Li You's progress bar was still stuck at the point where Ji Wenzhi appeared.

By the time Li You reacted, "Song Season" had already ended.

"That's great. Is this the resurrection match? I guess I can continue to listen to this singer's songs in the future."

Li You smiled and moved the progress bar to the end, then the smile on his face disappeared.

Li You was stunned when he saw the host announce that the person who was resurrected this time was Li Ruiqi.

"Did I miss something?"

Li You pulled the progress bar back and found the time period of Li Ruiqi. He listened to Li Ruiqi's song and then his face was full of confusion.

"Do I not understand the songs? Why do I feel that Li Ruiqi's songs are not very good?"

With doubts, Li You opened the trending search.

As soon as he entered, he saw that the trending searches had changed drastically.

Previously, the hot searches about Ji Wenzhi’s “Song of a Mortal” had fallen from the top three to outside the top five.

Among the top five at this time, four are topics related to Li Ruiqi's resurrection. When you click on them, you can see comments such as "Brother is awesome" and "Well-deserved".

Li You looked at a few and then exited, then clicked on another topic, [Only mortals can sing "Mortal Songs"], which was ranked second and was firmly suppressed by the topic [Li Ruiqi is resurrected in the ballad season].

When looking at this topic, Li You did not understand the meaning of this sentence. After clicking in and seeing the comments from netizens, he finally understood.

"Haha, dark horse? I knew the 'black' in dark horse wasn't the dark I imagined."

"I didn't expect Li Ruiqi to be resurrected. There's nothing wrong with the song being composed by Qu Dad, and there's nothing wrong with his high singing level, but I don't feel anything!"

"You are all wrong. Ji Wenzhi never thought about resurrection."

"Look at what you are talking about upstairs? If you don't want to be resurrected, why bother participating in the resurrection match?"

"Haha, what's the first line of 'Mortal Song'? 'You and I are both mortals.' If we are mortals, how can we be resurrected? When a mortal dies, he is really dead. Only those who are 'not mortals' can be resurrected."

“…Can this be understood?”

"But...it makes a lot of sense!"

"Don't play dumb, so what does it mean?"

"What else could it mean? The so-called resurrection match is just a final stage for singers like Ji Wenzhi to show themselves. As for resurrection? That's not something Ji Wenzhi should think about."

"You mean there's something fishy going on?"

"I didn't say anything, don't talk nonsense, where is the conspiracy? Who? Who... turn off the lights, I can't see anything!"

"The talent upstairs!"

"So, mortal songs, mortal songs, songs that only mortals can sing, and those who sing are also mortals!"

Looking at the comments from netizens, Li You remained silent.

After a long time, he left a comment in the comment section.

"You and I are both mortals. I am a mortal, and so are you. So why aren't they?"

……

The resurrection competition of "Song Season" is over.

Some people are satisfied, some are not, but no matter whether they are satisfied or not, it is over.

When Ji Wenzhi returned to Tianyu, he was greeted with respect every time he arrived at each floor, starting from the front desk on the first floor.

Some people applauded, and some shouted, "Brother Ji, you are the champion."

Hearing this, Ji Wenzhi laughed.

Before joining "Song Season", his idea was "make money, become famous, make money, become famous".

But after singing those two songs in "Following Season", his thoughts changed.

Therefore, he did not feel aggrieved about being eliminated as others thought.

However, Ji Wenzhi did not reject the goodwill expressed by these people and responded with a smile.

Only after reaching the fifth floor and entering Chen Tianjiao's office did Ji Wenzhi breathe a sigh of relief.

Sometimes what we think is good intention may cause trouble to others.

"what happened?"

Chen Tianjiao looked at Ji Wenzhi and asked with a smile.

Chen Tianjiao was very satisfied with Ji Wenzhi's performance in the "Song Season" revival match, which even exceeded Chen Tianjiao's expectations.

Chen Tianjiao knew that good songs would resonate with people, but she didn't expect that "Song of Mortals" would be so powerful.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that Chen Tianjiao herself is not ordinary. Whether it is her appearance, family background, or her current status, Chen Tianjiao cannot be associated with ordinary people.

In fact, if Ji Wenzhi had not experienced life, he would not have realized how ordinary the so-called ordinary life is.

"It's okay, I just feel a little emotional."

Ji Wenzhi replied with a smile.

"Well, it doesn't matter. Our goal this time has been achieved. Even if you are eliminated, Tianyu and your name have already left a deep impression in the hearts of Zhongzhou people, not to mention that you will participate in "Run Together: Zhongzhou" later."

Having said this, Chen Tianjiao laughed again.

"As far as I know, this time, 'Run Together: Zhongzhou Edition' did not invite any other guest except you."

Ji Wenzhi was stunned when he heard this.

"just me?"

"Yes! Are you sure you don't know Consultant Chen?"

Chen Tianjiao stared at Ji Wenzhi. She couldn't understand why Chen Shuren made this decision.

Before, when she heard that Chen Shuren invited Ji Wenzhi to participate in the recording of "Run Together", she just expressed her gratitude, but when she later learned that only Ji Wenzhi would be the flying guest, she was extremely surprised.

She couldn't imagine why Chen Shuren did this.

In her mind, Ji Wenzhi met Chen Shuren through her, but her relationship with Chen Shuren had not reached that level.

So she had to suspect that Ji Wenzhi and Chen Shuren actually had a personal relationship, and it was a very good relationship.

"Mr. Chen, you are joking."

Ji Wenzhi smiled bitterly.

"I know Brother Shu, but Brother Shu doesn't know me. If we have a good relationship, why would I come to Zhongzhou?"

Hearing Ji Wenzhi say this, Chen Tianjiao also nodded.

She also knew it was unlikely, but after asking, she finally solved a mystery.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. I don't know why Consultant Chen is taking such good care of you, but you have to perform well in "Run Together: Zhongzhou Chapter."

"I won't arrange any more promotional resources for you during this period. Let the netizens fill in their own imaginations first. When the heat is over and they forget about you, you can appear in their eyes through "Let's Run Together: Zhongzhou Chapter". This will be a big surprise for them and you will leave a deeper impression in their hearts."

Ji Wenzhi nodded after hearing this.

Then he looked hesitant.

Chen Tianjiao saw Ji Wenzhi's hesitation.

"What's matter?"

"No, I'll go back first."

"it is good!"

Ji Wenzhi left the office building and returned to his home.

In fact, he just wanted to tell Chen Tianjiao that he didn’t want to stay in Zhongzhou anymore, or to be more specific, he didn’t want to be an artist anymore.

He wanted to take the money he had saved over the years, go back and start a small business, marry a good and virtuous wife, and take care of his parents.

"There's More to Life than Just the Present" and "Song of Ordinary People" not only made those netizens feel a lot, but also made the singer Ji Wenzhi feel a lot.

After thinking about what he had been pursuing over the years, he felt that it was meaningless.

But he saw how much help Chen Tianjiao had given him, and if he just left like that, he would be too heartless and ungrateful.

"There are only a few months left. After the merging of the states, the days in Zhongzhou Tianyu will definitely not be as difficult as before. We will find an opportunity to talk about it then."

Ji Wenzhi thought so, then took out his mobile phone and found a phone number.

That was the foreman he met at the construction site. When he called him today, he was recording a show.

Now that he had some free time, he thought about it and decided to go back.

"Hey……"

Ji Wenzhi didn't know how long his phone call would make the foreman happy, but he knew that he was just a mortal.

……

Time flies, and the "Song Season" is over.

The final champion was Li Ruiqi, the dark horse who was resurrected through the resurrection match.

When Li Ruiqi won the championship, it became a hot topic.

No matter how much controversy there was when Li Ruiqi was resurrected, at this moment, most people were excited when they saw this example of a comeback through resurrection.

Because they seemed to see an opportunity in Li Ruiqi.

If Li Ruiqi, an eliminated singer, can be resurrected through the resurrection match, does that mean that ordinary people also have a chance to make a comeback?

Although this kind of thing is obviously wrong if you think about it, such as the resources that Li Ruiqi has, and Li Ruiqi's own strength.

But there are still many people who are willing to ignore those conditions and only look at the word "counterattack".

The company behind Li Ruiqi naturally knows what ordinary people like to watch, so it spared no effort in promoting the film using words such as "dark horse" and "counterattack".

If Li Ruiqi hadn't come from a good family, they might have added the label of "grassroots".

But just the two labels of "dark horse" and "counterattack" are enough to make netizens excited.

As a result, just when the news of Li Ruiqi's victory was being publicized, the news that "Let's Run Together: Zhongzhou Edition" would be broadcast in the evening was released that afternoon.

And it is directly pinned to the top of the trending searches!
This kind of pinning is not the first in the hot search, but the kind of pinning that is above the first place and cannot be achieved by normal means.

In the past, such top searches were all about major events or hot topics in Zhongzhou, but this time, the top hot search was given to the promotion of "Let's Run Together: Zhongzhou Edition".

No one can envy this situation.

The production team of "Song Season" and the big bosses behind it actually knew about this, but they could not change the promotion time of "Let's Run Together: Zhongzhou Edition".

The final of "Song Season" cannot be changed, so this situation has arisen.

Originally, the production team of "Song Season" and the company behind Li Ruiqi felt that even if "Let's Run Together: Zhongzhou Edition" began to be promoted, it would only be a hot search. As long as Li Ruiqi had enough hot searches, she would not be overshadowed.

But they were wrong.

The promotion of "Let's Run Together·Zhongzhou Chapter" is not just at the top of the hot searches. As long as you open the hot search topic, even if it is the topic of Li Ruiqi, after browsing the content of the main topic, there will be a promotion of "Let's Run Together·Zhongzhou Chapter" below.

This form of promotion is called smart display.

Generally, only topics of the same type will be displayed, for example, other song-related variety shows will be displayed under "Song Season".

But now, all of them have been replaced by "Run Together: Zhongzhou Chapter".

Therefore, under such publicity, many netizens in Zhongzhou shifted their focus from Li Ruiqi's victory to "Run Together: Zhongzhou Edition".

Some Zhongzhou netizens who have heard of "Run Together" have begun to promote it spontaneously.

What many people did not expect was that Ji Wenzhi, who had disappeared for a month, would be mentioned in this situation.

And it’s not about participating in the recording of the show “Run Together”.
