Producer System: My Girlfriend is a Cellist-Chapter 109 - 99: Increasing Attention
Chapter 109: Chapter 99: Increasing Attention
Elder Tong Tai... such a juggernaut figure in the music world of Qingjiang Province.
Not to mention his position in the Music Association, just his resume alone is frighteningly impressive!
Having graduated from Zhonghua Music College last century, he has won major awards at both domestic and international music competitions.
Unlike many so-called "musicians" who rely on seniority and "relationships" to succeed, Tong Tai is a legitimate composer who became famous through several timeless musical works and his successes in music competitions. Many performers have sought him to compose music.
And yet, this old artist manages to keep up with the youth culture, regularly updating his status on Weibo and occasionally posting reviews of the current "pop music," gaining a following among netizens.
So, how well-regarded are his opinions throughout Qingjiang Province?
Let’s put it this way.
Suppose one day, Tong Tai, after drinking too much at his home, shakes his head and randomly points out someone:
"That person... the pianist, good!"
Then, the next day, this person’s value will skyrocket, receiving attention from numerous music lovers and soon, the media will come to interview them!
However, this great figure... just two days ago posted a new Weibo.
In his words, you could sense the old gentleman’s excitement:
"It’s been a long time since I listened to classical music. I didn’t expect that in 2024, I’d see such a vibrant young classical performer... Here, I recommend this performer to everyone, Gan Yanyu. That cello is truly beautiful... and her piano accompanist, beautiful! My student showed me a video today, it’s fantastic!"
—Fantastic!
Not just "good," but "fantastic!"
It’s rare to hear Elder Tong give such high praise!
In no time, many netizens replied:
[Really... Elder Tong rated so highly this time?]
[OMG, I looked it up, so beautiful!!]
[She’s literally a goddess!!]
[I think I saw her on Douyin the other day, she and that guy Lin Tian were the ones at the concert performing Moonlight and Cat!]
[....]
This surge of popularity soon boosted "Moonlight and Cat" as well.
But what’s magical is:
Moonlight and Cat became hot.
Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu gained some attention online.
But... the two are separately famous.
Now, Moonlight and Cat are big internet celebrities.
What does it have to do with Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu?
When Lin Tian searched related topics on Weibo,
He unexpectedly found:
Although he and Gan Yanyu didn’t have Weibo accounts, a Super Topic for "Moonlight and Cat" had already been created!
It already had over a hundred thousand followers, and tens of thousands of posts.
Wow!
This feeling was somewhat like unintentionally planting a willow tree that thrived.
It turns out, on Weibo, there already were fans following him and Gan Yanyu!
He excitedly clicked into the Super Topic, curious about how Weibo fans were commenting on them, especially which song they liked more...
The first post:
[Moonlight and Cat Check-In Tower, those who like "Moon Cat" please check-in daily! They say when it reaches 100,000 posts, they will get married~]
The second post:
[Some super sweet screenshots from Moonlight and Cat videos, squeak if you like, you can take them as couple profile pics!]
The third post:
[Moonlight & Cat, fanfiction "Love Melody: We’re Just Partners, You’ve Gone Too Deep", super sweet, no tragedy, 18+, Miss Cat tops Moonlight]
....
Hold on, dude?!
Lin Tian doesn’t understand, but he’s greatly shocked.
How could a mere music tinkering guy become the main character in a fanfiction!
This is terrifying!
Lin Tian could imagine, after opening Weibo accounts with Gan Yanyu, what the comments section would be filled with every day....
But, this fanfiction... with Gan Yanyu topping?
Gan Yanyu... able to top?
How would that even be written?
Lin Tian seemed thoughtful.
He clicked on the post titled "Love Melody: We’re Just Partners, You’re too Involved", ready to savor it... and to give some constructive feedback to the fanfiction writer. freёweɓnovel.com
"Knock knock knock!"
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
Lin Tian quickly turned off his phone and went to answer the door.
A leisurely spaghetti-strap flower dress, black hair cascading over her shoulders.
Her petite figure exuding a noble and elegant aura.
No matter how many times he opens the door.
Lin Tian is always stunned by the beautiful face that greets him at the door... each time it appears.
Gan Yanyu, with her hands gently resting in front of her stomach, tiptoed to peek inside Lin Tian’s house.
"What’s wrong?"
"Mr. Gao asked if we’re free, he wants to have a meal with us, said he has something to discuss."
"Dinner? Today is Sunday, that works."
Lin Tian thought for a moment.
He had been busy with music-related matters these past few days.
Taking this chance to relax might be good.
No wonder Gan Yanyu dressed up so formally, in contrast, Lin Tian was just in his boxer shorts.
Gan Yanyu suddenly tiptoed again to take another peek inside Lin Tian’s house.
"...What are you doing?"
Lin Tian squinted his eyes, one would think there’s someone hidden in his house the way Gan Yanyu was acting, almost like she was catching a cheater.
"I’m so hungry.... do you have anything to eat at home?"
Gan Yanyu asked timidly, poking her fingers.
"Aren’t we supposed to have dinner with Mr. Gao soon?"
"I can’t wait any longer."
"...."
She really came to his house to ask for food.
But now, it’s already 11 A.M., heading out to eat with Gao Zhenyang at this hour, they would be starving by the time they arrive.
"Do you want a banana?" Lin Tian asked.
"Yes!"
"...."
On their way, Gan Yanyu ate the banana while standing by the roadside hailing a cab with Lin Tian.
After they got into a rideshare car, Lin Tian was surprised to find that the music playing was...
Ode to Love, DJ version?!
The deep music paired with the pulsing rhythm was quite appealing!
Wait, who did this?!
Before Lin Tian could regain his composure.
The driver, an uncle wearing glasses, suddenly turned around,
and stared at Gan Yanyu wide-eyed:
"Is... is that Gan Yanyu? The cellist who performed last week at Qingzhou Music Hall?!"
"Eh....?!"
Gan Yanyu, who was eating her banana, choked.
Trying not to let Lin Tian see her embarrassed look, she quickly covered her small mouth with her hand.
"Gan Yanyu, I really like your cello! I wanted to go to your concert last time, if it wasn’t for that something, I really would have gone!"
The uncle said excitedly,
"Can I get an autograph?!"
"...."
Amidst the confusion and astonishment, Gan Yanyu swallowed the overly large banana in one bite, shocking with her small mouth’s capacity.
"Okay... okay."
Taking the pen from the uncle, Gan Yanyu hastily signed on one of his disk covers.
Her flustered appearance lacked any of the elegance of a cellist.
Lin Tian, watching this scene, couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
At the same time, he also suddenly realized.
Gan Yanyu really had become famous.
