The next morning, the Chinese version of Iris Long's new hit song, "I, the Dreamer", debuted in the country and in other Chinese-speaking countries.
The music video was also uploaded. Unlike the cinematic music video of the original English version, the Chinese version featured a studio performance video instead.
Iris Long, along with Enrique Valdez as the lead guitarist and the second vocalist, and of course, her band of classic and modern musicians performed inside a recording studio.
Everything was still carefully directed just like the music video of the original English version.
The Black Stars held another series of viewing parties in person and online. This time, they were more prepared. More people also attended in person, taking this time to interact with their fellow members.
After watching the new music video, people immediately noticed that there were differences between the two versions.
The English version was incredible. It appealed to a wide range of people in almost all age groups, not to mention its international appeal.
On the other hand, the Chinese version appealed greatly to the Chinese people. Unlike the English version, the Chinese version incorporated traditional Chinese instruments such as the guzheng1, erhu2, dizi3, and tanggu.4
Hearing these traditional Chinese instruments in the music made the Chinese listeners feel their hearts boil.
It was an instant hit.
This was probably the first time that Iris Long embraced traditional Chinese elements in her music and not just in symbolism in her music videos.
Without any surprises, "I, the Dreamer (Chinese version)" claimed the top number 1 spot in the music charts upon debuting.
As soon as the results came in, JJ immediately called Iris Long while she was on the way home after a magazine shoot and sit-down interview. Today, Jin Liwei was unable to pick her up as he had to fly to the capital for an emergency inspection of one of Jin Corporation's current projects. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
Iris was exhausted and was about to take a nap when Dom informed her that JJ was calling.
She opened her drowsy eyes and gave a hand signal.
Dom immediately understood. He answered the call and put it on loudspeaker.
Before Iris could greet JJ, the hot-tempered producer didn't waste any time and immediately said, "I told you so!"
Iris raised an eyebrow.
True to his impatient nature, JJ didn't wait for Iris to ask what he was talking about. He immediately started talking like a machine gun.
"I told you that making a Chinese version of your music will be an instant hit! But you never believed me! I had to fight tooth and nail with you on this one! Thankfully, you mellowed out a bit after having children and become just a little more pleasant to work with."
She rolled her eyes while covering herself more with a fluffy blanket and trying to find a better position on her seat. JJ's tirade would take a long time. She was too exhausted today and didn't have the energy to banter with the old man.
JJ didn't mind that she hadn't spoken yet at all. It was clear that he felt too excited about proving that he was "right".
