Chapter 311 Mixed Reviews

Another week has pa.s.sed.

At the beginning of its release, the song Mistress received great attention due to its subject matter. However, at the same time, this song and its creator Ju Jie also received great criticism from public opinion.

Although people were well aware that this song was about one of societys most abhorrent phenomena, sometimes exposing the cruel side of human nature directly might not necessarily be acceptable to people!

Whether it was music critics or non-music industry entertainment professionals, they have expressed their opinions on this song, saying that it was just riding the wave of popularity. They have repeatedly stepped on this song through various channels, including the recently emerging Weibo.

Although Tianmei initially used some means in public relations and spent some money to invite some music critics to support this song, in the end, seeing the overwhelming criticism online, they eventually gave up.

The criticisms of these comments were also different, and some even formed distinct confrontations. For example, some womens rights advocates argued that this showed disrespect towards women, and the breakdown of the relations.h.i.+p cannot be blamed solely on the third partys involvement. The responsibility of the man should be greater!

People who might have been hurt by the same way also did not like this song. They felt that this song wasnt blaming the third party, but defending the third party!

Looking at the lyrics, I also know its not because of love. What nonsense, wasnt it just an excuse for the third party?

And some male music critics were very displeased with this song. They felt that Ju Jie played a weak and incompetent bad role in this song. As a man, he should dare to love and hate. Since she dared to plant a field on his head, he should show her what it means for a spark to ignite a prairie fire.1

However

What was strange was that despite the widespread criticism, and almost one-sided scolding in the music review sections of major music websites, the rating of this song wasnt low. The number of people giving it high scores was almost equal to the number of people giving it low scores!

This data has been questioned by people, but after the copyright organizations intervened in the investigation, it was found that the rating of this song wasnt fake. Moreover, they selected some comments from the audience who gave high scores and published them, posting them on the copyright organizations Weibo public account. The long article composed of these comments received many likes.

I dont know whats good about this song, but I feel very relieved after listening to it.

Someone has shown you their heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys. Isnt it fair to give a five-star review?

No need to comment, its good to listen to, why think so much?

This song is very enchanting. I have been looping it for a long time and surprisingly havent gotten tired of it.

This song is indeed good to listen to, but you have to put on headphones. Sometimes even wearing headphones doesnt work because you cant help but sing along. When the volume gets loud, the people around you on the bus look at you with strange eyes, and it becomes awkward

Indeed, those who didnt like this song could find countless reasons to criticize it, but those who liked this song couldnt quite find reasons to defend it, and were even reluctant to tell others that they liked listening to this song

Let others criticize if they want, and those who like listening can just continue doing so.

So, amidst a barrage of criticism, this song became increasingly popular and became known to more and more people. Although Ju Jie partic.i.p.ated in those chart shows but couldnt get good rankings on charts like the Music Power Chart, this song was actually crazily requested on the radio and has been at the top spot on the radio request chart for a long, long time!

And what surprised those music critics was that the sales of the single Mistress continued to rise strangely. Finally, a week after its release, it made it into the top ten of the copyright organizations new song bestsellers chart, unexpectedly squeezing Mo Feis The Initial Dream out of the top ten. What was more surprising was that it still maintained a strong upward momentum!

Upon learning this news, the people at Tianmei didnt know whether to cry or laugh, in any case, they were simply at a loss.

This matter has also been ridiculed by some gossip media, and even dug up Mo Feis past scandals. Although they had been clarified, they acted as if they were blind and exaggerated the matter. Fortunately, these gossip media outlets havent played on Weibo yet, and their influence remained limited to newspaper stands.

Ju Jie wasnt the type to remain silent after being criticized. When he first saw those music reviews, he was furious, smas.h.i.+ng things and threatening to find the media to have a verbal altercation with them.

Fortunately, Du Lun had already antic.i.p.ated this situation and promptly persuaded Ju Jie to look at this matter calmly. And then, as the songs performance soared, Ju Jie was overjoyed and forgot about arguing with others.

Following this, Ju Jie, who was on fire at the time, also received a flurry of variety show invitations like snowflakes. He was busy rus.h.i.+ng to different venues every day, with more than a dozen variety shows taking turns. He didnt even have time to think about anything else!

Becoming famous was really a mixture of pain and happiness!

In any case, Ju Jie enjoyed this feeling quite a bit.

Mo Fei, who was squeezed out of the top ten, still felt somewhat disappointed, but she didnt pay much attention because some fans letters still made her feel relieved and felt that her efforts were not in vain.

Yang Yi, come and listen to this letter. Mo Fei was in the study, happily reading a letter to Yang Yi. Sister Mo Fei, thank you for singing The Initial Dream. It has given me the strength to pursue my dreams! I also love music and have partic.i.p.ated in many compet.i.tions, but I have a problem. Whenever I step onto the stage, I get nervous and cant perform at my normal level. After experiencing many failures, I gave up on this path last year and chose to follow my familys arrangements and return to school to study. But after hearing your song, I suddenly realized that I shouldnt give up because only music can bring me happiness

When this fan wrote this letter, she had already picked up music again and partic.i.p.ated in an audition for a record company, becoming a trainee. Although her debut was still far away, she felt that she had embarked on the path of pursuing her initial dream, filling her heart with joy and hope.

Look, the song I sang still has a positive meaning. Those who say that I am misleading the younger generation, I think they should take a look at this letter! Mo Fei was a little proud.

Its no use even if they see it. Yang Yi shrugged and told Mo Fei the cruel truth, Some people think theyre always right and wont listen to what others say. If you show them this letter, theyll say youre still misleading the younger generation. Becoming a trainee doesnt mean anything. Shes so timid and afraid of the stage, and she still wont have a chance to debut.

People grow, you know! Hey, you are so indifferent, you wont even say something nice to coax me! Mo Fei hit Yang Yis chest with her pink fist in annoyance and scolded.2

As a result, she was pulled into the arms of Yang Yi who has been a little restless recently. After a scream, her voice was m.u.f.fled.

Meanwhile, Yang Huan was bored in bed playing with her phone, and at this moment, her ears twitched. The scream pierced through two walls, but it was still exceptionally clear in the quiet night.

Big brother! Yang Huan wailed and bury her head in her pillow, covering her ears.
