"What’s with the ’hello’? Are you sure?"
Lin Tian immediately fired back.
Gan Yanyu was even more confused and said plaintively, "What’s wrong?"
He’s the one who asked her to go back and spend time with her parents, so why is he upset now when she agreed?
"I just wanted you to think about it carefully. I was just giving you a suggestion."
Lin Tian said seriously.
After all, it’s a big family decision for Gan Yanyu. He didn’t want her to miss the chance to communicate well with her family because of him, so he gave her this suggestion.
That is, for Gan Yanyu to consider her own desires and make her own choice.
Even though this choice, without considering Lin Tian, was most likely to go home for the New Year.
But just after Lin Tian made the suggestion, she agreed immediately.
This made it seem like Gan Yanyu wasn’t making her own choice, just following his advice!
Then, can I suggest that you stay here on New Year’s Eve, snuggle with me, and ’agree’ for once?
"Lin Tian, you’re right."
After thinking for a moment, the girl’s expression unexpectedly turned obedient.
She instinctively pouted and, after a bit of thought,
"In that case, I’ll visit them in the next few days and discuss it face-to-face!"
Although Lin Tian suggested it, he didn’t expect Gan Yanyu to be so bold.
"Wouldn’t just a phone call be enough?"
"Important things should be said face-to-face."
Gan Yanyu said firmly.
Lin Tian could only cheer her on.
But seeing Gan Yanyu take such a brave step, he was delighted.
At first, she didn’t even dare to announce a ’runaway from home,’ choosing instead to jump off a building.
Being able to communicate so well, nothing was really an issue anymore.
With the overtime work from all departments of Le Yun and the Moonlight and Cat studio, the third album of Moonlight and Cat was finally rushed out overnight.
Due to the sudden addition of new songs, the physical album’s production needed more time, and the official release was set for Monday.
However, just because the album’s official release needed more time didn’t mean people couldn’t hear the music.
At Lin Tian’s request, the new track "Spring Sound Dance" from the album was made available for free for everyone to listen to on the official website.
Lin Tian did this primarily to allow everyone to hear the track sooner and quickly complete the system task.
Besides, he really didn’t care much about the minor loss in album revenue because of this.
He Zhichen, knowing Lin Tian’s character, was surprised but still pushed it forward.
What was no big deal to Lin Tian was absolutely amazing in the eyes of the netizens!
The "free early listen" feature was launched, sparking intense discussions on Weibo.
[The new album has five tracks, four of which we’ve already heard, and the only new one, even before the album’s release, Mr. Moonlight is letting us listen for free...]
[Tears in my eyes! This is the vision of Mr. Moonlight and Miss Cat!]
[Wow, what kind of divine musician is this? Not selling products, not taking hard ads, not accepting endorsements, not appearing on variety shows... truly just focused on making good music for us.]
[Damn, thinking about the actor I used to follow, Ren Lianyun, makes me angry, taking random endorsements, including a melamine milk powder, ruining himself!]
You can’t blame the netizens for such a big reaction.
In a circle where everyone is thinking about making more money.
Only Moonlight and Cat are like a breath of fresh air, always bringing surprises.
Some are in it for the money, and some truly want to make good music.
The netizens can tell the difference!
After Moonlight and Cat’s early listening feature came out, the electronic album reservations on QQ Music skyrocketed by 30%.
"Brothers, big news! Big news!"
One of the biggest "quarterly" streamers on Bilibili, Zhang Dong, also started his live stream.
He’s called "quarterly" because Zhang Dong’s live streaming is known to follow a pattern.
Each quarter corresponds to the time between each new track from Moonlight and Cat. Whenever they release a new track, Zhang Dong’s livestream viewership skyrockets, putting him right on the homepage.
Without a new track, his usual viewership is just in the thousands.
It’s safe to say, Zhang Dong knows exactly what the audience wants.
When Moonlight went to a piano competition in Tokyo, Zhang Dong streamed every match for his audience.
If it weren’t for Zhang Dong’s livestream, not so many netizens would have known about Mr. Moonlight’s competition abroad.
"Big news, Mr. Moonlight’s new album can be listened to early!"
In the livestream, Zhang Dong excitedly said in front of the camera.
However, Zhang Dong’s fans remained as enthusiastic as ever, kindly telling him:
[You’re still on 3G? Did you really need to tell us??]
[Why do you think there are so many people in your stream today? Are you that clueless?]
[Isn’t it possible that if it weren’t for this, I wouldn’t even enter your stream.....]
[Stop blabbering, start quickly, you’ve wasted enough time for your mom to service over a dozen clients over three rounds.]
Since Zhang Dong’s various iconic moments exploded on Bilibili.
He’s now been thoroughly upgraded to a comedian.
Fans also unreservedly make some very abstract jokes in the bullet comments.
Except, Zhang Dong probably doesn’t find them funny.
Thinking back, Zhang Dong once pursued a high-end image as a musician streamer, leveraging his former professional violinist status to film street pretentious videos, gaining wild admiration, and even being viewed as a benchmark to challenge other musicians... what a splendid time that was!
Everything changed completely after that street encounter with Moonlight and Cat.
From being a revered high-end violinist to a clowned and comedic entertainer beloved by all.
His fan count grew from an initial 1.67 million to the current 3.84 million.
He took two years to reach 1.67 million and only two months to reach 3.84 million.
Zhang Dong has accepted it... there was no other choice but to accept it, quitting the internet wasn’t really an option.
Sometimes when he thinks about it.
How many fans do you need before it’s enough?
[Stop daydreaming, get a move on!!!]
Urged by the Kings of Jiji in the live stream, Zhang Dong snapped out of it and clicked into the player.
Seeing this title, Zhang Dong immediately became solemn and told the audience in the livestream, "Just a moment."
Then, he left his seat.
When Zhang Dong returned to the camera, he had changed into a luxurious tailcoat.
In front of the audience, he opened a bottle of red wine, poured it into a glass, and gently swirled it.
"Alright, we can start listening now."
