It's hard to be an idol

Chapter 262 Aesthetics of Straight Men
The pre-sale of the new album has started. After the release of the MV of "Sugar", Xu Lai quickly recorded the sound source of "Sugar" and released it. This song "Sugar" is much more ruthless than "Love yourself" and "Perfect". Airborne directly to the top of the B chart, three songs in a row on the B list are all works by Xu Lai alone, this scene is really scary.

Now that Xu Lai's new album has been prepared and is approaching, the big-name singers are not affected by Xu Lai and are releasing albums and new singles on their own. They are not worried that Xu Lai's popularity will affect them. After all, Once they reach their position, they have a large number of regular fans, and the money of these fans is enough.

For example, Bieber, who Xu Lai knows now, and Taylor Swift, who is in the same company, have no plans to change the release plan of new singles and albums, and Adele, who has not happened for a long time, is about to come with a nuclear bomb. These people simply He will not stop because of someone's popularity. Instead, he will find it challenging because of someone's phenomenal popularity and want to compete with Xu Lai in the ring.

Because Bieber and Xu Lai are good friends, they staggered the release of the new album with Xu Lai, but Taylor was almost half a month ahead of schedule, and the new album will be released half a month after the release of Xu Lai's new album, which is quite impressive. Xu Lai was surprised, the two belonged to the same company, yet they still wanted to fight in the ring?

It's really a bit outrageous.

But if you think about it carefully, it’s actually right. They don’t know each other, and Universal Music is so big, so it doesn’t seem to have a particularly big impact on them. It can even be used to distinguish themselves. Obviously, Universal Music has a lot of influence on them during this period. Xu Lai's outpouring of resources made some people feel a little uncomfortable.

But Xu Lai thinks it's okay, the soldiers will cover up the water and the soil, and the front is just right. If he thinks that he is not worthy of these resources, then he will squeeze his song off the rankings.

……

There was a lot of hype outside because of Xu Lai's three singles, but Xu Lai was chatting with Lin Yuner by taking advantage of the time difference.

The difference between Seoul and Los Angeles is 5 hours. Xu Lai only said happy birthday to Lin Yuner in the early morning of May 30th in the United States. He forgot that the time in Seoul is faster than that of Los Angeles. It was already Seoul when he said happy birthday to Lin Yuner On the night of the 30th, the 31st is not long away, and my birthday is almost over.

Fortunately, Xu Lai called Lin Yun'er.

"Is it too late for birthday greetings?" Xu Lai asked with some confidence.

Birthday wishes are most sincere when they are said at midnight, but Xu Lai has no choice. I really missed Lin Yuner's birthday.

"No, there are still two hours before my birthday." Lin Yuner responded very considerately.

She knows that Xu Lai is very busy now. After all, the more popular people are, the less free time they have. Also have to make music, so less free time.

Singers in Europe and the United States basically work according to their commuting time, but Xu Lai, an outsider, is obviously "acclimatized" and works too hard. Sometimes Hill is a little afraid of Xu Lai's physical problems, but After the examination found that there was no major problem with his health, Hill was very pleased that Xu Lai had such a drive. After all, Xu Lai would make more money, and he would naturally make more money. He and Xu Lai are connected together. .

Lin Yuner is experienced.

Besides, Yoona Lin can hear Xu Lai's news from as far away as Seoul now, such as the YouTube video views surpassed [-] million in four days, the release of "Sugar" hit No. According to the news, netizens on the Korean website are very concerned about Xu Lai's actions in the United States. At this time, they have completely abandoned their national "pride" and really regarded Xu Lai, a mainlander, as one of their own. Carried and reported Xu Lai's videos and news in North America wantonly, and once again boasted on the basis of North America's praise.

Now the Korean Internet has been blowing rainbow farts to Xu Lai. No artist in South Korea can catch up with Xu Lai. Even Liu Zaishi, who has no black fans on the whole network, can't reach Xu Lai's level. Maybe the horse riding dance was the most popular back then. When Psy was able to compete with Xu Lai now, but Psy's peak was too short, and Xu Lai didn't seem to reach the peak for a while, and South Korean netizens were ecstatic.

K-pop is finally breaking out of Asia and going global!
This is a common saying on the Korean Internet, because Xu Lai came out of the K-pop environment, so his achievements = K-pop achievements, not to mention that Xu Lai's song style and singing are very "European and American". It’s all about fart, European and American songs that come out of the K-pop environment, that’s also K-pop.

Now K-pop=American pop.

South Korean netizens are so excited now.

……

"Have you received your birthday gift?" Xu Lai asked Park Chanyeol to give him a gift. This was already the second time. Park Chanyeol complained to him. He felt like he was a tool between Xu Lai and Lin Yuner. Xu Lai asked Park Chanyeol to give him a gift. Come and ask him to help, Lin Yuner also asked him to help...

"I got it. I really like it." Lin Yuner couldn't help laughing when she thought of Xu Lai's birthday gift. Park Chanyeol helped to bring it to her. It was a Hermès bag, which was quite expensive, like the price it was first released in North America. It is tens of thousands of knives, and it is still limited, and it has increased a little later, but not by much. It is indeed quite rare, but precious is precious, and ugly is ugly.

Lin Yun'er couldn't appreciate Xu Lai's somewhat straight male aesthetics.

But she still accepted it happily, but she would keep the bag at home and not carry it out.

So ugly.

"I quite like it"...it's because I like him, not the bag itself.

"As long as you like it, I'm afraid it won't buy well..." Xu Lai breathed a sigh of relief.

"Xiao Lai, I think... you better not buy me such an expensive gift in the future, I feel distressed." Lin Yuner said rather helplessly.

"It's nothing, I can make a lot of money now."

"You earn money, but I don't think it's worth buying this kind of bag. Your money doesn't come from the wind."

"It's nothing. Hill helped me buy it, and it seems that I confiscated my money." Thinking about Hill's refusal, Xu Lai secretly smiled, which was considered an advantage.

"what?"

"I picked this and asked Hill to buy it for me, but Hill didn't ask me to pay for it..."

"That's okay. You didn't spend any money, so it's not a loss."

"what?"

"It's nothing, it didn't cost any money anyway, so it's not a loss." Lin Yuner didn't seem to care at all that Hill bought it for Xu Lai, anyway, she knew that Xu Lai picked it himself.

Ugly is ugly, it's good that I didn't waste money.

She is very considerate of Xu Lai now.
