"The second question, let my partner Miss Cat read it."
Moonlight placed the card in front of Miss Cat, and the girl leaned forward gently to make out the words on the card, nestling close to Moonlight’s head.
"Is there an operation team behind Moonlight and Cat? Every time you release a video, you mention ’SYC’. Is that the company Moonlight and Cat are signed with?"
After Miss Cat finished reading the question, she shook her head and said,
"Moonlight and Cat are just two high school students who came together for our musical dreams. We shoot and edit our videos ourselves, without a team."
After Miss Cat spoke, Moonlight stood up from the couch, leaned forward slightly, and bowed a third of the way, earnestly adding,
"Here, we would like to especially thank a teacher from SYC—whose name we won’t disclose—for providing us with recording equipment during our early filming days."
"Of course, as a condition, we also promoted SYC in the description of each video...but I doubt it had any effect, haha."
This humorous and candid remark instantly narrowed the gap between Moonlight and the audience.
[Wow, Mr. Moonlight is really grateful! No wonder he can create so many amazing works!]
[Being able to get free sponsorship from SYC before even becoming famous...Mr. Moonlight is awesome!]
[So, it means that Moonlight and Cat have neither a company nor a team. Just two high school students, casually filming...and they’ve produced so many incredible works?!]
[Damn!!! Aren’t you two just like the main characters from an anime?!]
[I can’t...I really can’t accept this. Can we get a solid proof? The last time I heard of a teenage musician getting famous, I have to think back hundreds of years ago! Back then, the best-selling product was Niger.....]
Just the second question, and such an explosive answer.
The information overload has shocked many netizens....
In fact, why are Moonlight and Cat’s words so credible?
Because they dared to bring up SYC!
Verifying the truth is too easy, just confirm with SYC Company.
SYC is also considered a top-tier music agency nationally, with a respectable reputation in the industry.
If Moonlight and Cat were really signed with SYC, they would have no reason to deny it.
If they weren’t signed by their company... Are they crazy?! Would SYC do charity for artists from other companies?!
"Since this came up, I’ll answer another question."
Saying so, Moonlight paused for a moment,
"That is, regarding our music gaining such popularity, why don’t we sign with a company to debut, release albums, but instead choose to continue operating on online platforms."
As soon as this question came out, many netizens immediately perked up their ears.
This, too, is a question that quite a few people are curious about.
Although it’s undeniable.
Among Moonlight and Cat’s 1.86 million fans, most people just listen to the music with an entertainment mindset, not caring about other things.
But, there are still quite a few fans who have deep admiration for Moonlight and Cat’s music and have been brooding over this.
With such talent and skill, they should release albums, make a name for themselves, and strive towards becoming world-class musicians...
Being a blogger on Douyin, even if you turn "Ode to Love" into the greatest short video of all time, future history books won’t record you as a musician!
The label "Internet Music Celebrity" would be nagged about by trolls for a lifetime!!
"There are multiple reasons for this question."
When recording this segment, Lin Tian clearly hesitated for a moment.
It’s just the mission from the system.
He didn’t know why the system always liked to have him take advantage of short video platforms.
The only explanation is:
The system believes that releasing works online is the best choice for Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu at the current stage.
Aiming too high, too fast might strain the back.
Of course, he definitely couldn’t say that.
In fact, the system is only part of the reason.
"First of all, I personally don’t think that releasing music works on video platforms is something that devalues the music.
A good work of literature and art should be accessible for the masses to enjoy.
I see many people disparage the ’Internet celebrity’ label, and even say that Douyin’s audience are a bunch of clueless LOWLIFEs who don’t deserve such fine bran... I find such remarks quite appalling.
Ordinary people without a store of music knowledge are able to find emotional value in my music; people with some insights into music aesthetics can taste deeper flavors in my music.
For me, both are recognitions of my work.
And this feeling, I think it’s wonderful!"
Moonlight said to the camera, with utmost sincerity.
With these words, the comments exploded instantly.
[I’m crying, Mr. Moonlight is really speaking up for us ordinary people...]
[Awesome... Such words, only a person with a certain breadth of vision could say them, knocking those Internet singers who write crappy lyrics but think they are so high and mighty.]
[Not... really tearful! This is the good artist of the people, the star we should be following!]
[Yes, "Ode to Love", "Pathétique Symphony"....I don’t understand them, but when they were first released, I also listened happily! I think the melody is nice, it excites me... Isn’t that enough? Why am I considered inferior just for listening to a piece of music? I will also try to delve deeper into the story behind the music later....]
