A song about a southern girl made her ex-girlfriend cry on the judges' bench

Fan Ying returned to the company and soon received a call from Hua Feng.

""Fan Ying, I heard you won the Jade Award, congratulations."

Hua Feng's voice was still tired, and Fan Ying couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Brother Hua, are you okay?"

"I have read all the reports on the Internet. It's just that we didn't get the GEA. It's no big deal. We just need to make our own music well. Awards and external evaluations are actually not important!"

Hua Feng didn't say anything, and suddenly said:"Are you free tonight? I want to invite you out for dinner."

Fan Ying was stunned and immediately said:"Yes, of course. Even if the king invites me, I have no time. I have to cancel all arrangements!"

After hanging up the phone, Hua Feng told him the time and address of the meal through text messages. In the evening, Fan Ying arrived as scheduled, and Hua Feng waved his hand to call him over.

Several plates of cold dishes and side dishes were already on the table. When Fan Ying entered the private room, Hua Feng was leisurely sipping tea.

"Hua brother"

"Come on, take a seat."

Hua Feng said with a smile:"Although we have been in touch, this is the first time we meet like this, right?"

Fan Ying thought for a moment and said:"It should be the second time. The first time was when you got off the plane during the day. I had just returned from Korea, but you didn't notice me."

"You have seen my embarrassing side."

Hua Feng shook his head and shook the teacup in his hand.

"Do you drink tea or wine?"

"Just drink tea."

Fan Ying actually wanted to drink Coke, but he was too embarrassed to say it.

Hua Feng sighed,"I'm old and useless! I went to the hospital for a physical examination a while ago, and the doctor told me that my liver function was not good, so I had to drink less alcohol."

"You don't know, in fact, when I was young, I was very good at drinking, not because I wanted to, but mainly because of work needs. Those big directors and producers, when did they discuss scripts and cooperation not at the dinner table?"

"At that time, I was not as famous as I am now. Even if it was just an ordinary song or a small supporting role, I had to do everything I could to get it."

"So many years have passed in a flash. I'm afraid I would never have thought that I would become the king of pop in the eyes of the public!"

He recalled his past, and Fan Ying did not interrupt him.

He was also very interested in Hua Feng's experience. Besides, what Hua Feng said were interesting stories that even the reporters had never heard of.

"Fan Ying, let me ask you, what do you think is the most important thing for a superstar?"

Fan Ying thought for a while, then said,"Is it the work?"

Hua Feng nodded, then shook his head,"Yes, and no.""

"That......Is it popularity?"

Hua Feng still shook his head.

Fan Ying gave many answers in succession, such as traffic, money, and status, but they were all rejected by Hua Feng one by one.

He could only say helplessly:"Brother Hua, please stop beating around the bush, I really can't guess."

Hua Feng raised the corners of his mouth:"What you said are the initial pursuits of ordinary stars. When a person reaches a height like you and me, these things have become less important."

"What we should do is to consider what we can do for the music industry or for Longguo.

Hua Feng knew that what he said might not be easy to understand, so he changed his perspective and said:

"Our Chinese music scene started very late. Even now, the voices of many excellent domestic musicians cannot be heard by other countries. I think this is their loss, and also our loss."

"The reason for this phenomenon is that we haven’t worked hard enough and haven’t established a firm foothold in the international arena. You know, five years ago, I was invited to participate in an international tour."

"When I went to Gaul, I met a young audience member who asked me innocently whether Longguo was a poor and backward country."

"I was shocked at the time. How could Longguo be a backward country when its economy has developed so fast in recent years? I asked him why he thought so, and he said that this is what the domestic media reported."

"It was then that I realized that Europe, America, and even our neighboring countries lacked the most basic understanding of us. No matter how fast we develop or how strong our national strength is, they will not take the initiative to understand us, just like few of us are willing to understand Australia or South America."

"Is it because the scenery in these regions is not beautiful enough or the economic development is not good enough? No, the main reason is that these regions have not been able to form their own unique cultural output"

"Only by forming a unique cultural output can the masses in other countries yearn for it, and even make them accept different customs and habits, thus driving economic benefits."

"Do you think I'm exaggerating?"

Fan Ying shook his head repeatedly.

"No, I just think your ideas are very forward-looking."

In the past, Fan Ying only admired Hua Feng's character, but now, he has begun to admire Hua Feng's wisdom.

Hua Feng is right. In today's peaceful times, cultural output is particularly important. Music, movies, novels, these are all important carriers of cultural output.

As long as these works can be exported and accepted by the public abroad, the influence of the country will naturally rise.

How to make the works go abroad, how to improve their reputation internationally, and let the Chinese music scene connect with the world, this is what Hua Feng really wants to do!

"What a pity."

The excitement in Hua Feng's eyes was replaced by a trace of dejection.

"I have great dreams, but I don't have the ability to realize them. I have been trying to sing English songs and make cameos in international films, but after so many years, I still have nothing and have not won any awards.

He took the empty cup in front of Fan Ying, filled it with tea and pushed it in front of Fan Ying.

"I hope you can take over my baton and get the honor that I couldn't get."

"Go to the European and American music scene!���With his strength, he will definitely become the first star in Longguo to enter the European and American markets."

Fan Ying knew that this was the reason why Huafeng invited him out for dinner.

He stared at the tea, as if he could see through it his past experience of becoming famous step by step.

Huafeng was right. At his level, he could no longer think only of his own interests.

The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. Since he has this ability, he should do it. Moreover, if he succeeds, his international branches will also benefit from it.

He took a deep breath and drank the tea.

"Good!"

Hua Feng smiled with satisfaction.

He really didn't make a mistake!

On the other side, in the free country across the ocean, many people were watching the GEA awards ceremony.

"There is no chance for Longguo to win any award this year!"

"Hahahaha, the people of Long Country are so pitiful. They come from far away every year to run with us."

"I heard that he is the king of Dragon Country? Such a famous person is not as good as our country's new artistes. Dragon Country's music is really backward!"

"They are not only backward, they don’t even have the ability to write good music!"

Negative comments were overwhelming on the Internet. Deng Chenrui and Wen Jie couldn’t just sit back and watch, so they released the two English songs that Fan Ying had sung on the show!
