Powerful Connections

The events that unfolded on the set of "Counting The Seconds" remain unknown to the public. However, there is another topic currently causing a stir on the internet, following a completely different rhythm.

The center of attention revolves around Eric Moon's recent live performance to celebrate his victory. Over time, his fanbase has steadily grown, surpassing Cheng Xiaofan in terms of popularity.

Pop artists possess a unique quality that makes their music universally appealing. With its formulaic nature and captivating lyrics, pop has become the largest genre by far, reaching even the ears of die-hard metalheads or country music enthusiasts.

Hence, when a pop artist gains mainstream recognition, it shakes the entire internet.

Meanwhile, a quieter but ongoing debate has been unfolding in the background, stemming from the second episode of "Street Dance of China." A few days ago, when the episode premiered, there was a brief moment when Eric Moon's fanbase was overshadowed. However, after regaining control, the debate has continued subtly in the background, even four days later.

This Tianyou program has sparked great interest and has now entered a new phase, with numerous contestants showcasing their talents and gaining recognition from the growing audience. Each dance style has presented exceptional performers, making the second episode a battle for mentorship.

In addition to that, there is news of TMY's upcoming single release.

Previously, TMY had already reached the top of the trending search list, propelled by the support of Tianyou Entertainment. Now, right after the Nova Awards, the announcement of her new single has set her fans' excitement ablaze, akin to a pack of wolves catching the scent of blood.

Many fans had previously regretted not being able to catch a glimpse of the rising producer's true appearance at the Nova Awards. Consequently, the news of her new single immediately captured the attention of netizens.

While numerous singers, celebrities, and entertainment companies tirelessly promote their own songs and works, mobilizing fans and engaging internet influencers, a song that hasn't even been released yet has already climbed to the top of the Weibo trending list, becoming known to all.

Behind the scenes, a certain pop idol in the Chinese music scene, who has always been obsessed with trending headlines, briefly made the trending list again before being overshadowed by Eric Moon, "Street Dance of China," and TMY.

In essence, "Levels" is already making waves even before its official release.

"Tianyou knows how to spot talent."

"The Nova Awards army has arrived, presenting a song by a talented young artist!"

"I've been a fan since 'Fox.' Witnessing TMY's growth from her early works until now, it feels like it all happened just a month ago."

"But it's only been a month!"

"I was so young and naive back then..."

"FOUR WEEKS!!!"

"And she has released more songs in that time than most artists do in six months."

"The TMY Global Support Club welcomes new members. Join us, and become part of the family!"

In today's modern society, the sheer volume of information being shared is mind-boggling. The vast expanse of the internet, combined with the widespread use of smartphones, results in an overwhelming influx of news and opinions. As a consequence, netizens find it challenging to keep up with this constant stream of information.

It is not uncommon for a relatively unknown song to suddenly gain immense popularity and become a household name overnight. Conversely, songs that were once the talk of the town can fade into obscurity after being overplayed for weeks.

Often, people struggle to recall the specific title of a song, even when it was at the peak of its popularity. However, TMY has managed to carve a distinct place in people's minds through her unconventional and boundary-pushing electronic music.

Presently, "Levels" holds the second spot on the trending list, just below "Eric Moon," with "Street Dance of China" following closely behind. It's worth noting that TMY composed the theme song for "Street Dance of China," so her presence on the trending list is twofold.

In a way, it is quite remarkable. Most young individuals habitually browse Weibo and other social platforms each day, with trending topics being among the first things they seek out. These topics represent the most captivating and attention-grabbing news of the moment.

Whether "Levels" appears as the second or third item on the trending list, anyone who delves into the topic inevitably discovers TMY's name.

Regarding the inclusion of "Street Dance of China" on the trending list, Tianyou Entertainment's vigorous promotional efforts undoubtedly played a significant role. However, for "Levels" to climb even higher on the trending list, credit must be given to Song Ziyin and the two rounds of reposts from renowned actress Xia Zilan...

When a well-known second-tier Chinese film star with a large fan base and the captain of a new-generation idol group participate in spreading the news, both their fans and those in the industry will see the updates simultaneously. Curious individuals click on the links and, if interested, effortlessly join in the reposting wave.

As the information spreads from one person to ten, then from ten to a hundred, and from a hundred to a thousand, it eventually reaches millions. Moreover, the individuals spreading the news are none other than the prominent stars who frequently find themselves under the spotlight.

Within just one afternoon, TMY, the electronic music producer, slowly moved to the top of the trending list, even surpassing Eric Moon! However, as more people became aware and engaged in discussions, a sudden and unexpected incident completely ignited this wave.

A Weibo account, certified as a verified organization with a blue V badge, also liked this trending topic and reposted it with a comment.

"After watching the recent Canxing Nova Awards, I, East, as one of the most passionate electronic music enthusiasts in China, have been following this exceptional producer since 'Fox.' TMY's works are distinct from the majority of domestic electronic music. After listening, they often evoke indescribable emotions... I never imagined that electronic music could be played in this way.

A true genius of melodies, the darling of electronic sounds, and devilishly good at sampling.

At the same time, I want to share something here with everyone. The bigwigs at our label are already working on a plan to connect with TMY. I really hope to see our East Records logo printed on the album cover of 'Levels'!"

After that, a stunning and futuristic label logo was added as a captivating image at the bottom of the post.

Without a doubt, this was a genuine bombshell.

What is "East Records"? And who is this "East" person? Most electronic music enthusiasts are aware that East Records is currently the largest electronic music label in China, unparalleled by any other. It has been imitated countless times but never surpassed. The label not only boasts numerous outstanding domestic electronic music producers and DJs, but even its founder possesses a legendary status.

The founder of the label, East, is the first Chinese DJ to enter the Top 100 DJs in the world, considered a legendary OG and father figure of the industry!

With nearly 70 million followers on Weibo and an unrivaled authoritative presence in the Chinese electronic music scene, East's involvement in this matter can be described as perfectly timed.

The implicit meaning behind his message is quite simple and can be summed up in one sentence: "TMY, my label wants you and has decided to sign you."

This is the initial invitation!
