However, Xie Jie's indirect answer, like a stone thrown into a calm lake, not only failed to quell the situation but instead stirred up ripples, intensifying the curiosity of the audience and netizens.
After all, in daily life, digging for details, gossiping, and following trending topics have always been the most enthusiastic pursuits of the common people.
As a result, Su Yu's popularity was swept up by a sudden gust of wind, instantly being hotly discussed by netizens on Tribe.
The topic tag #The Story Behind Life is Like Summer Flowers# was even pushed into the top ten trending searches by netizens with great enthusiasm.
It should be noted that this was genuine popularity achieved without any push from Tianxing Entertainment behind the scenes.
At this moment, the staff of Tianxing Entertainment's Public Relations and Propaganda Department, upon discovering this astonishing situation on Tribe, did not dare to delay and immediately reported it to their superiors.
After all, if they didn't seize such naturally emerging popularity, it would truly be too much of a waste.
This situation caused Su Yu's phone to ring abruptly late at night; the caller was none other than Su Yu's direct superior, Li Dayue.
"Su Yu, because of your 'Life is Like Summer Flowers,' your popularity on Tribe is skyrocketing like a rocket, directly entering the top ten trending searches. The company feels that this surge in popularity is truly rare, and it would be a real pity if we didn't make good use of it! Why don't you register a Tribe account? This way, you can absorb some of the popularity and, by the way, help the company promote the 'little li flying dagger' TV series. After all, you're in charge of the theme song, right? Let's preheat it a bit, it won't take much effort."
Li Dayue was extremely dedicated; he had just been heavily criticized by netizens, but now he was already fully immersed in his work.
Moreover, what Li Dayue said was actually a decision made by the company's Public Relations and Propaganda Department after discussion.
After all, currently, the only things that could be promoted and were related to Su Yu were the two theme songs for 'little li flying dagger.'
Of course, the moment Su Yu and Gu Zhou Suo Li Weng's collaboration appeared, it would undoubtedly elevate tonight's popularity to another level, directly maxing out everyone's expectations for the 'little li flying dagger' TV series, even though its script wasn't fully written yet.
"Alright! I'll register now. It seems Director Li also knows my other identity, but I hope my identity as a novel writer remains private for now. Director Li, please tell the company's senior management for me; I'm afraid of trouble."
After careful consideration, Su Yu nodded in agreement.
He knew in his heart that his identity as a singer would eventually come to the forefront.
Registering a social media account at this time to attract a wave of fans was actually not a bad choice.
Otherwise, with him continuously releasing hit songs, if fans and netizens who liked him couldn't find his social media account, it would seem a bit too aloof.
Su Yu was not the type to project an aloof persona, and it was Gu Zhou Suo Li Weng, the identity that would never come to the forefront, who truly embodied the aloof persona.
After hanging up the phone, Su Yu immediately registered a Tribe account using his identity as a lyricist and composer.
He then called Wu Yue and asked him to register an account for Gu Zhou Suo Li Weng through Shengshi Fenghua's channels.
The advantage of doing this was that even Tribe's backend would not be able to know that Su Yu was Gu Zhou Suo Li Weng.
Soon, both accounts were registered and went online with lightning speed.
Su Yu first had the Su Yu and Gu Zhou Suo Li Weng accounts follow each other.
Then, he posted a message using Su Yu's account.
"My songs are all artistic processing and creation; there's no need for everyone to connect the songs with reality.
@Singer Xie Jie, Brother Jie sang 'Life is Like Summer Flowers' perfectly. Everyone can just enjoy the music.
If you really want to make a connection, please look forward to the two songs I composed for the ancient martial arts TV series 'little li flying dagger'! I believe you will like them! @Tianxing Entertainment @Gu Zhou Suo Li Weng"
Su Yu didn't have any followers at the moment, but after he separately tagged Xie Jie, Tianxing Entertainment, and his alt account Gu Zhou Suo Li Weng, in less than five minutes, his follower count exploded and grew wildly!
Because right after Su Yu posted on Tribe, Tianxing Entertainment and Xie Jie replied one after another, not only following Su Yu but also reposting his content.
This scene instantly energized the netizens who were waiting online to follow the trending topic, and one by one, they followed the clues to Su Yu's Tribe homepage.
Follows, likes, comments, reposts—a series of dazzling operations.
Even some fans of 'little li flying dagger' were startled by Su Yu at this time.
After all, Su Yu had confidently stated that he had composed two songs for the 'little li flying dagger' TV series!
Good heavens, this was simply a dream collaboration between the hottest new lyricist/composer and the hottest new martial arts novel great.
And these book fans also followed the people Su Yu followed and found Gu Zhou Suo Li Weng's Tribe account.
Heaven help them, they had finally found the stronghold for their Dao Ke.
After following en masse, they began to wait there for Gu Zhou Suo Li Weng to come out and confirm Su Yu's words.
Sure enough, in a few minutes, Gu Zhou Suo Li Weng, who usually didn't even speak in the comment section, appeared, reposting Su Yu's Tribe post with an additional caption:
"Both songs are great! Everyone can look forward to them. Also, the new book 'Chu Liuxiang Legend' is in preparation and will be launched soon, please look forward to it."
With the appearance of Gu Zhou Suo Li Weng, this low-key and mysterious author, the popularity sparked by the 'Life is Like Summer Flowers' incident directly shifted!
Now, the focus of netizens following the trending topic was concentrated on the two theme songs for the 'little li flying dagger' TV series, and Gu Zhou Suo Li Weng's new book 'Chu Liuxiang Legend.'
This scene left the executives of Tianxing Entertainment and Shengshi Fenghua utterly bewildered.
Tianxing Entertainment's executives hadn't expected Su Yu's approach to be so wild, actually playing a kind of 'mental split' on Tribe!
Promoting his new song on one hand, and his new book on the other, truly a thief who never leaves empty-handed, never missing any opportunity.
They had even worried that Su Yu wouldn't be able to grasp this unexpected surge in popularity.
As for the executives at Shengshi Fenghua, they were truly completely dumbfounded.
Because they had no idea what Su Yu's next new book was called, let alone when it would be launched.
Good heavens, they actually learned this news at the same time as the netizens! It was utterly speechless.
However, in the next instant, whether it was Wu Yue or Hu Jian, or even all the editors in the martial arts department, they were all plunged into a sea of jubilation!
Because Su Yu's new martial arts novel was finally confirmed...
