The first season's grand finale of the Four Nations Concert also concluded perfectly with the Tianxing Entertainment singers' chorus of "the smiling, proud wanderer."
Looking at the final viewership ratings for the grand finale, Qian Jin was so excited he didn't know what to say.
After all, a 7.211 viewership rating, in the current time slot, was truly formidable!
For some popular variety shows, a peak viewership of 4-5 was already a huge success.
Breaking 7? Only some large-scale galas on CCTV could achieve that.
Of course, the results for the 9 songs from the grand finale had not yet been released, and this season's bonuses and trophies would only be distributed a week later once the results were out.
But this was enough to add a very significant entry to Qian Jin's resume.
And the night of the 31st was destined to be one where many people would not easily fall asleep.
For example, Bi Huo and Xue Qing.
The two of them had already settled down in Yanjing, and August was the month Bi Huo released his first personal new album.
Tonight marked one full month since the new album's release.
At this point, the total sales of his album had already reached 32.11 million copies.
This was a sales figure no one had initially predicted.
And Bi Huo, a new singer who had only won one Newcomer Award, now possessed the sales power to challenge "The King of Singers," Queens, Heavenly Kings, and Heavenly Queens?
This was truly exaggerated.
Another thing was that the early morning of September 1st was not only the release time for several songs from the Four Nations Concert grand finale, but also the release time for Xue Qing's first personal new album.
It was impossible for this young couple not to be nervous at this moment.
But out of confidence in Su Yu, they still forced themselves to calm down.
They just stared at the time on the computer screen without blinking until midnight on the 1st officially arrived.
And this time, even though Tianxing Entertainment did not heavily promote Xue Qing's new album release on the 1st, the outside world had actually guessed it.
Moreover, it was released alongside songs from the Four Nations Concert's lyricists and composers, so as soon as Xue Qing's new album went online, it received a large wave of download data support.
Who made it so that Xue Qing's new album also contained five of Su Yu's works?
"100,000! 150,000! 300,000! Hahahahaha, wife, you're amazing!" Just a few minutes after the sale began, Bi Huo's excited voice came from the room.
He refreshed the page every once in a while, and his excitement and anticipation were even greater than when he released his own album last month.
Xue Qing also smiled, her eyes crinkling, and quietly let out the breath she had been holding.
Xue Qing's new album was called "Dark Sky," and it included the title track "Dark Sky," "Began to Understand," "Green Light," "A Perfect Day," and "sea bed"—these five works Su Yu gave her.
The remaining five songs were from other lyricists and composers in the Tianxing Entertainment Music Department.
Four of the five songs Su Yu gave her were classic masterpieces by the niche singer Stefanie Sun.
And for Su Yu, his personal favorite was "Dark Sky."
At this moment, less than ten minutes after Xue Qing's new album went online, this album's title track had entered the September new song chart at an incredible speed.
It was even fiercely competing with Chu Ming and others' grand finale songs!
Of course, the top three were very difficult to reach, because they had already been dominated by Su Yu's three songs: "the smiling, proud wanderer," "land of dragon scales," and "《the name of the father》."
But many fans and listeners who liked this song felt that Xue Qing's album songs had a lot of staying power, and no one could predict how far they would ultimately climb.
And Su Yu, who had already returned to his home in Yanjing, had just finished looking at Xue Qing's new album sales.
One hour after going online, sales had already exceeded 2 million copies!
This had already surpassed Bi Huo's first-hour sales of 1.7 million copies.
"It seems netizens really like this new album," Su Yu said to himself with a smile, then checked his overseas entertainment prestige value.
By the end of the eleventh episode, Su Yu's overseas entertainment prestige value had already reached over 1.5 billion.
And the three works from the grand finale had even more fiercely showcased Su Yu's strength in front of audiences and netizens in the Four Nations!
So when he checked his overseas entertainment prestige value, he was a little surprised himself.
It was already 1.9 billion!
And this number had not stopped; it was still growing at a visible rate.
In Su Yu's opinion, perhaps after dawn, his overseas entertainment prestige value might even break 2 billion.
At 8 AM, Xue Qing's album sales had successfully surpassed the 5 million mark.
Moreover, three songs from the album, "Dark Sky," "Began to Understand," and "Green Light," had even entered the new song chart.
They were even ranked 4th, 6th, and 7th respectively.
Such a scene truly stunned many industry insiders.
Last night's grand finale had nine songs released, but apart from Su Yu's works taking the lead, the works of other lyricists and composers were actually crushed?
If it weren't for the facts and data right in front of them, no one would believe such a result.
However, "A Perfect Day" and "sea bed" did not make it into the top ten.
Many people felt that these two songs were a bit niche, especially "sea bed"!
They couldn't understand why Su Yu would write such a depressing song.
However, some people suffering from depression actually quite liked this song.
They felt that Su Yu and the singer Xue Qing truly understood them.
But to expect them to come out and promote this song? They really couldn't do it.
Those who were frantically recommending this song online, did they really suffer from this condition?
At least they didn't think so.
And why did Su Yu write such a song?
Naturally, it was to prepare for Cool Fire Combination's new album release next month!
Of course, the tricks involved here might only be known by Su Yu, Han Jiangxue, Cool Fire Combination, and a few others.
Time passed quietly, and when September 7th arrived, the final results of the Four Nations Concert grand finale were also released.
This day could be described as an online sensation.
Because looking at the data ranking from top to bottom on the Four Nations Concert App, the first to third places were all Su Yu's works!
This was not just the music market of China, but also the data from the music markets of Neon, South Korea, and the United States.
Domestically, the top-selling song was undoubtedly "the smiling, proud wanderer," a highly accessible martial arts-themed song.
But overseas, it was not.
The first place on the music platforms in Neon, South Korea, and the United States was "《the name of the father》," and only then was "the smiling, proud wanderer" in second place.
But this didn't prevent Su Yu from winning the championship without dispute, did it?
Out of a total of nine songs, Su Yu alone claimed the top three spots. What more was there to dispute?
The second place for lyricists and composers went to Chris, third was Chu Ming, fourth Kailina, and fifth Ida Shoichiro.
In fact, the scores between 2nd and 5th place were very close.
Everyone knew that their true ranking in terms of lyrical and compositional ability could not be determined solely by this one-time download data.
