Chapter 614 - Clean Sweep
Tang Hao was busy the entire night. He helped with promoting Liu Bingyao and kept an eye on the changes in the various charts.
Countless people were like him, staying up all night and paying attention to the charts.
Every bit of progress would result in a wave of cheers.
Tang Hao’s excitement was stirred under that atmosphere.
“Is this how it feels to be a fanboy?”
Tang Hao finally understood why some people could be so fanatical over their idols.
Later in the night, he logged onto Tieba and posted a reply to a thread.
In an instant, the entire Tieba was in an uproar.
“Qing Feng? Could it be that Tycoon Qing Feng?”
“Oh my god! Tycoon Qing Feng has appeared!”
The thread exploded in an instant. The fans who were still awake piled on the comments.
That forum had hundreds of thousands of fans, and most of them had watched Liu Bingyao’s streams. Only the most diehard fans would be awake at that hour, and they knew who Qing Feng was from the streams.
“Is he an impostor? It’s already so late, yet Tycoon Qing Feng is still online?” Some people were doubtful.
“Add me into your chat groups. I’m giving out red packets!”
No one doubted Tang Hao’s identity after they saw that reply.
The forum once again boiled over with comments. The atmosphere was almost fanatical.
Many people jumped from their seats, and their eyes lit up when they saw the words “red packet.”
Immediately, Tang Hao logged into a sub-account, and he was invited into several groups.
“Welcome! Welcome! A warm welcome!”
“All hail the god of tycoons!”
People spammed emojis, stickers, and flattering comments in each of those groups. The atmosphere was extremely lively.
“Thanks for all your hard work!”
Tang Hao sent a message. Then, he began to give out red packets.
The red packets were snatched up within three seconds.
Those who received a lot of money were smug, while those who only managed to snatch several cents started to wail and beg for more.
The atmosphere became more and more lively.
The festivities continued for about ten minutes before Tang Hao finally reached his daily limit.
“I’ll do it again tomorrow!” Tang Hao said.
The chat group was flooded with all kinds of gratitude emojis and stickers, which made Tang Hao laugh.
By six o’clock the next morning, Liu Bingyao had entered the top five of the major popularity charts. Her fans had also overrun several small charts, pushing her into the top three or even the first place.
This result was quite impressive.
After all, Bing Yao was only a newcomer. She had to fight against other bigger names in those charts, each with its fan club.
That was also thanks to Tianze Entertainment’s promotion, which boosted Liu Bingyao’s popularity on the internet. In addition to the live stream, she had gained about a million fans in total.
Of course, the quality of her songs was also an important factor in her popularity.
The hit song of Bing Yao’s album was called “Starry Sky.” It was produced by a renowned lyricist and composer. With her exceptional singing skills and perfect voice, it was a song from the heavens.
Everyone who listened to it was amazed.
The comments on all major platforms were overwhelmingly positive.
By eight o’clock, the fan club began to organize another push to increase Liu Bingyao’s ranking once more.
In the meantime, Liu Bingyao’s official Weibo account also started its promotion.
The music video of “Starry Sky” was released and spread like wildfire.
Many people became instant fans after watching it. The Weibo account got many new followers, and the video received many positive reviews.
Many professional music critics also commented favorably on the music video.
The hype continued to rise, and Liu Bingyao’s popularity soared.
As she gained more followers, Liu Bingyao’s hit song continued to advance on all the big charts, surpassing all the big names and reaching first place.
Finally, at eight o’clock in the evening, she had conquered the final popularity chart.
A clean sweep!
In an instant, all the major fan groups on Tieba were in a frenzied uproar.
A newcomer taking first place in all the popularity charts was an incredible feat!
The people in all the major music platforms and media outlets were shocked.
Liu Bingyao’s name finally entered their sights. Before this, she was at most an Internet celebrity, and Tianze Entertainment was only a small company.
They had never bothered keeping an eye on them.
However, a newcomer from that unremarkable entertainment company had taken the top spot in all the popularity charts. That was unbelievable!
Many people did not treat the news seriously, thinking that she had achieved that feat using money.
However, they were dumbfounded when they looked at the situation on Weibo and Tieba.
‘What? How could this newcomer have a million followers and such an active fan club?’
“Quick, quick! Get me her information!”
“Quick! Contact Tianze Entertainment. We want to be the first to interview her.”
All the major entertainment media outlets got into the action.
After giving out red packets in the various chat groups, Tang Hao turned off his computer and stretched.
He was satisfied with the clean sweep.
That could be considered a good start. If it continued, she would become more and more popular.
After a while, his phone rang. It was He Meiting.
“Sis Meiting!” Tang Hao answered the call.
“Thank you for your hard work, Chairman Tang!” He Meiting said with a smile.
“What hard work?” Tang Hao was stunned.
“You didn’t sleep last night, right? You’ve been helping me with the rankings. I saw it all. I’m also on Tieba. I even snatched one of your red packets!” He Meiting said.
Tang Hao scratched his head and suddenly felt a little awkward.
“Now… how is it?” After a while, Tang Hao asked.
“It’s great! The results are nothing short of amazing. I can’t believe it. I received a lot of calls just now, and they’re all requesting an interview.”
“In the past, we had to beg these outlets to come whenever we have a debut singer. Now, they’re fighting to be the first to interview her. How rare!” He Meiting said emotionally.
After a pause, she continued, “As long as Bingyao continues to work hard, her potential will be limitless!”
Tang Hao smiled and said, “Then I’ll have to trouble you to guide her, Sis Meiting.”
He Meiting smiled mischievously and said profoundly, “Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of her.”
Hearing the mischievous tone in her voice, Tang Hao felt awkward again and could not help but cough.
After chatting for a while more, she ended the call.
In the next few days, Liu Bingyao became more and more popular. She went on several interviews, and many variety shows had also contacted her. It was as if she was on fire.
The hit song was broadcast everywhere.
Tang Hao could hear the song at Z University every day. Many people played it in their classrooms, obsessed with Liu Bingyao’s heavenly voice.
The university radio station also played the song every day.
“Our Z University has finally produced a big star!”
The university’s Tieba and forums were lively with discussions.
The next three days passed in the blink of an eye. The year had also come to an end. Soon, it was the New Year’s holiday.
