Comeback [entertainment]

Assistant Mu was also stunned, and his eyes instantly shot to the nearby investment direction. Sure enough, some of the people sitting there couldn't help but secretly turned their heads.

Because of its great influence in the early years, Huadian Music has a special status in China. These entertainment companies established in the early decades have agreed that if possible, they will always support this music award in the future, hoping that it will become famous. Overseas giant system.With more investors, a single voice will reduce the right to speak. This is also a way to ensure the fairness of the competition and prevent Huadian Music from being shady like other domestic music awards.It has been like this for decades, and Sihai has no tradition of dealing with this matter. However, before departure, Qin Huo and the company's music team conducted a professional analysis. The winning rate of the single "Chasing" is as high as 80.00%!As for the remaining 20.00%, Qin Huo does not rule out that the organizer will award this as a consolation prize to several other old singers. It is not easy for old singers to persist. As an industry insider, Qin Huo has nothing to say about this, but No matter how you imagine it, it shouldn't be such an absurd result!

Probably because Qin Huo's complexion was really ugly, someone among the group of investors finally couldn't sit still and slipped over, with a very helpless expression: "Mr. Qin, I didn't mean not to discuss with you on purpose, it's really because you were against letting foreign singers be shortlisted before." The matter was too repulsive, so we kept it from you. However, the artist in your company is indeed very good, and the competition team will not let him go back empty-handed. Look at the young singers who have just debuted, and they can get the best award. The creation award does not disgrace his talent."

"That's right." The others immediately explained, "This is a last resort. The domestic music is not strong enough. If the Huadian music scene goes silent, everyone's investment will be wiped out sooner or later. It's better to break the music nationality. Shackles, let's take this opportunity to promote this award to an international level, invite those popular idol singers here every year, set up more side awards, and add paid voting, now those fans are paying a lot of money! ..."

Qin Huo only looked at this group of middle-aged people who were proud of their commercial ability and talked freely. He could only smell the smell of philistine and profit-seeking in them, but he couldn't see the slightest contribution to supporting the domestic cultural circle. persist in.The domestic art film investment market is being dominated by more and more bottomless businessmen who only believe in money. Suddenly, for a moment, Qin Huo felt ashamed to stand with them from the bottom of his heart.

*****

Yuanshang glanced over the guests present, almost all of them were familiar faces.In such an absurd announcement, except for a few people who couldn't help showing indignation, most of them accepted the state numbly.Yuanshang still remembers the scene when he stood on the Huadian music stage last time. The auditorium at that time was not as luxurious as it is now, and most of the singers at that time were fledgling. It is the centripetal force that makes people's blood boil when they touch it!

A camera slide came over his head, amidst the sparse applause, Yuanshang took a deep breath, smiled politely at the camera, and made a decision in his heart.

Suddenly someone beside him tugged on his sleeve, Yuan Shang turned his head, it was a female singer in her fifties, she gently warned: "Don't be impulsive."

Yuanshang patted her reassuringly and walked out from the seating area.

Seeing that he finally came out, the host on the stage couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief. After Yuanshang took the stage, he first nodded politely at him, then turned around, and gave the two players of "RNB" who had stepped onto the stage earlier. a hug.

The two foreign singers were at a loss for a moment, but they still did not resist such a warm embrace. The natural hostility between the two parties was unavoidably resolved. Yuan Shangfu whispered in English in the ear of the group leader: "Congratulations! Having won this award, you guys are very capable, and you are also opponents that I respect very much, but I am sorry that as a Chinese musician, I also have my own deeper persistence. I will say something in a moment, which may cause you to receive some criticism in the future, very sorry I'm sorry, please believe that this is not aimed at you. I wish you all the best in your future music journey."

The team leader didn't expect to receive such a friendly wish, so he let go of him because he didn't know: "...Thank you?"

Yuanshang smiled at them, and then walked towards the center of the stage. The host heard a few words from the side and probably guessed something, but he didn't step forward to stop them.Yuanshang smiled gratefully at him, held the microphone, and glanced at everyone in the audience, still with a gentle face.

"Thanks to the company for giving me the platform to develop, and to all the fans and listeners who have supported me since my debut." Yuanshang paused, his smile became slightly indifferent, and the subject suddenly changed, "I am also very grateful to Huadian Music I can present this award to me, but I am sorry that I cannot accept it today. As for the reason, I think everyone will understand without mentioning it. I hope that the Chinese music scene will get better and better, and there will be more and more influential works. Return to and surpass past glory. Thank you."

He put down the microphone, took two steps back and bowed to the audience, then turned around and walked down without hesitation. The two members of "RNB" understood the meaning of what he just said after listening to the translation, and looked at him at this time, their eyes were full of surprise.When Yuanshang and them passed by, he said sorry in a low voice. He thought he would not get a response, but he heard a very soft Korean: "Come on."

It was as if the dark clouds above the head were gently blown away by the wind, and the road ahead was suddenly illuminated.

He walked to the side of his original seat, and asked Sun Han, who hadn't reacted by looking at his expression, "Let's go?"

Sun Hanqing settled down, turned his head and stared at the audience, for some reason, a heroic ambition suddenly appeared in his heart, and he stood up quickly: "Let's go!"

The auditorium was full of turmoil because of their departure. Many people thought that Yuanshang would feel aggrieved, but they never guessed that he, a newcomer who had just debuted, would be willing to refuse the award.Although Hua Dian Music has signs of passing, it is undoubtedly No. 1 in the domestic music selection. Even if the best arrangement is not as good as the best single, it is still a very beautiful resume for newcomers.This group of musicians, who have long been oppressed by the market and are used to submissiveness, never thought they could do whatever they want, and suddenly started whispering and discussing with each other. They were very careful in their words at first, but soon felt from the words of the people around them, I am not the only one who appreciates Yuan Shang's move.

Impulse!

But also happy!This is something that too many people dare to think about but dare not do!

This rotten music circle should have been slapped loudly and embarrassingly! !

Qin Huo squinted his eyes and focused on Yuanshang, watching him embrace other winners, watching him speak, watching him turn around and leave the stage freely, and exit the stage grandly.Qin Huo couldn't look away, but felt that there was an eye-catching light on the other party, which made him feel a deep shock in his heart.The plausible ability of the few investors around me just disappeared. They all lost their voices. It wasn't until Qin Huo stood up that he was distracted by his oppressive height, and suddenly began to panic—— —

——"Director Qin..."

Qin Huo ignored the call behind him, and quickly followed Yuanshang's departure direction.

Even the investors left, and the musicians in the auditorium fell silent. The old singer who was sitting next to Yuanshang was the first to stand up and leave.Her old back seemed to give the remaining people an invisible encouragement, and an inexplicable sadness echoed in the vast space. Soon, many big-name singers got up one after another and left in a huff.

Suddenly there was a wave of angry exits around him, Jiang Xie turned his head to look at Ren Pingsheng somewhat at a loss, and saw that Ren Pingsheng had a serious expression on his face, and his eyes fell on the direction of the entrance gate where Yuanshang left.His eyes were very complicated, so complicated that Jiang Xie couldn't read any emotions in it, but the other party obviously had no intention of leaving when he arrived, and just stayed in the auditorium silently with another group of people.

As the king of the music scene with aloof status, he is so spineless! !Disappointment towards him in Jiang Xie's heart surged up like a tidal wave, and the inherent respect impression in the past seemed to be only for a moment, and it collapsed because of this straw.He looked longingly at those who left, wanted to imitate but couldn't muster the courage, while despising himself, while circling in his mind the figure of Fei Yang when Yuan Shang left. Courage and conviction stand in awe.

******

The night breeze was a bit chilly, and Yuanshang stood on the red carpet that he had just walked past, and there were fans waiting on both sides who did not leave, and there was an instant commotion because of his appearance.The remnants of the media who hadn't had time to get notified exchanged information blankly. Although it was fruitless, they didn't mind asking a few questions. The driver couldn't get there quickly, and Sun Hanqing was vigilantly preparing to block the impact.

A silver-gray car suddenly stopped in front of him, the door automatically swung open, and Assistant Mu poked his head out from the co-pilot: "Mr. Yuan, come up quickly!"

The tall figure of Qin Huo was faintly visible in the car. The media was approaching behind him. Yuanshang didn't dare to delay, so he quickly got into the car with Sun Hanqing. After driving for a while, he turned back to look at the chasing crowd. stand up.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Qin." Yuanshang apologized, but for some reason, there was always a feeling that the other party was not angry. "I seem to be a little impulsive today. Will it cause trouble for the company?"

Qin Huo looked at his expression without a trace of haze, and felt an unprecedented freedom of doing whatever he wanted. What can he blame?Blame the other party for not swallowing his anger and accepting that dirty and worthless trophy?Can't do it!The Four Seas Group still doesn't care about this honor! !

Outside the window, it began to rain patter, hitting the car window, drawing waves of rippling light.The neon lights at night are so bizarre, just like the colorful dye vat of the entertainment circle, dumped on top of Yuanshang's head, but it can't change his persistence at all.

For the first time, Qin Huo affirmed from the bottom of his heart to such a young artist that the entertainment industry needs such pure scholars, and Four Seas is also working hard to create an environment that can protect them.Looking at the diamond-like light in the other party's eyes when he smiled, Qin Huo's whole body became hot twice, and his heart was pounding.

what happened?He tugged at his bow tie and unbuttoned two shirts. Just as he was wondering, the car suddenly stopped abruptly.

He was brought over by the inertia, and when he saw that Yuanshang almost slipped off the seat and fell, he couldn't help frowning, and said angrily, "What's going on?"

The driver turned his head, his expression a bit unbearable: "Dr. Qin, there is a dog lying in the middle of the road ahead."

It was still a puppy, only one or two months old, pure black, with drooping big ears.It didn't know if it was run over by a car, and it was bloody in the rain, lying motionless on the road, only whining for help that is unique to small milk dogs.

The family had pets when they were young, and Yuanshang couldn't stand it anymore when he saw this situation. He opened the car door and ran to check in the rain.The milk dog licked his hand affectionately, trying to get up, but failed several times.

A pair of feet appeared in sight, and the raindrops falling from above his head suddenly disappeared. Yuanshang and the milk dog looked up together, and saw Qin Huo standing in front of him holding an umbrella.

Stared at by two pairs of dark eyes.

Qin Huo suddenly remembered Chapter 2 in "One Hundred Ways to Make Life Cute~"——

——"If conditions permit, raise a pet~"

******

The news that Yuanshang was dissatisfied with Hua Dian Music Award's shady and angrily left the venue was like a torpedo thrown into the water, instantly setting off an unprecedented sensation in the entertainment circle recently.

In recent years, shady scandals have emerged in various domestic awards, but most of them have only been privately guessed by fans and the media themselves. After fighting for injustices, there is no evidence and they can only leave angrily. Yuanshang is the only one who directly puts the contradictions on the table, trembling naked people.

Hua Dian Music Festival's decision to make an exception to invite overseas artists to participate in the competition has caused a lot of controversy before, and this matter has attracted more attention.Hua Dian has never been shortlisted for foreign language songs for decades, but any older domestic music lover knows it well, and now it is a complete exception, and it is also awarded the title of laurel. The audience who laments that the Chinese music scene is not as good as before is simply sad Its misfortune and hates its indisputable.What's more, the song "Chasing" has become very popular recently. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is sung in the streets and alleys. Music is good here. The beautiful melody can directly shock people. To this extent, the public's aesthetics will no longer appear blind.

It's just that there are always some preconceived people who can't apply this kind of convention. The group "RNB" has been really popular in recent years, and has a large base of fans among young people in China. Yuanshang's move, in their opinion, is very disrespectful to their idol.

The little milk dog was sent to the hospital. His leg injury was too severe and he had to amputate it. After confirming that Qin Huo had no objection, Yuanshang temporarily took the wounded who had completed the operation to Qin Huo's home.

Soothing the little guy who was lying on the carpet and moaning constantly, Yuanshang thought that it was about time for him to move out. He was arranged here because of Zhou Zhanxiao before, but it's one thing to borrow people. Qin Huo's It's obviously out of date to bring a pet with a personality that looks very ugly at first glance.

The cell phone rang melodiously. It was Guo Miaochun, the female lead in Yu Shuimiao's new film. The heroic female voice resounded loudly: "Don't worry! If something goes wrong, I support you!!"

This is the number of phone calls in the past few days. Surrounded by the care of friends, Yuanshang felt a deep warmth in his heart.He turned on the computer and searched for housing information casually, and he was able to see a lot of things related to himself in the popular feeds on the homepages of several major forums.

"The No.30 [-]nd Huadian Music Awards Ceremony exploded with shady scenes, the shortlisted contestants and nearly half of the guests left angrily" "Is it shady if I don't win the award?"Are certain musicians SB? "

"It's not like I said, is it too rude to just leave in public? "On the Rise and Fall of Chinese Music in the Past 20 Years"

"Huadian Music Organizer Criticizes: There is no shady scene, and Yuanshang will not be invited to be shortlisted again." Recently, Sun Hanqing ordered Yuanshang to be banned from reading comments online, for fear that he would affect his mood. Yuanshang is not that fragile. The browser advertisement bar, he clicked into it if he felt interested.On Weibo, the organizer of Hua Dian Music was obviously overwhelmed by the overwhelming social pressure. It directly announced on the official homepage that it would never invite Yuanshang to participate in the election again. Some of the shortlisted contestants "have eyes that nobody can't see themselves.

"Snake spirit disease, the "Hua" in Hua Dian music, dare to ask the organizers to know the meaning?"

"If the founder sees the current situation, I'm afraid he will jump out of the coffin in anger!!"

"Chinese songs are so ugly that I have not paid attention to them for many years. Everyone speaks based on their strengths. You can't just blindly support Chinese people because they didn't win the award [picking nose]"

"Hehe, it's nasty nmb. Do you want to slap your dad with screenshots when you talk about your strength? Not to mention the professional evaluation of music critics, even the website vote for "Chasing" that night was hundreds of times higher. Blind NMB!"

"Is it really a quality to leave the field halfway to embarrass other players?"

"Did you watch the video upstairs? Yuanshang's speech is enough for self-cultivation. If you want me, I will take off the big insole pia on the organizer's face!"

"A passer-by said, the strength of your idol is six throws away from Yuanshang..."

"Huadian Music has also fallen, and the domestic music circle is really a pill, and there is no way to save it."

It's a pity that in the comments below, there are not many people who take this clarification.Everyone is not blind. The strength of "Chasing" and other participating tracks has clearly been greatly improved. This situation is still being teased, and the onlookers will be pissed off watching it.What's more, Yuanshang didn't utter any bad words. Instead, he smiled gently throughout the media video, and thanked the organizer for embarrassing him very politely. No matter how you evaluate it, it can be called extremely gracious approach.

Soon, many of the many musicians who left the venue that night also expressed their support for the dignity of musicians on their respective public platforms, which immediately raised the nature of this matter to a new high point. Did the publicity department get involved? In short, after the incident snowballed, Yuanshang's image became more positive. After all, a singer who would leave directly for the sake of the fairness of the award without giving the sponsor a face is just a A pure child who loves music.

In this chaotic and filthy modern society, what the audience likes most is precisely such pure people.

******

Winter in the north is just around the corner, the temperature dropped to minus ten degrees, Yuanshang was wearing a thick down jacket, and after getting off the car, he couldn't help but sigh on his hands.He raised his head, and in the distant sky were countless snow feathers.

The music department of the Four Seas Group, approaching the end of the year, had no rest. Hundreds of people worked hard up and down for several months before finally completing Yuanshang's first album.

In this album called "Beginning", in addition to "Chasing", it also includes nine new songs composed by Yuan Shang himself.Since the sales channels for the first release are not limited to the domestic market, the promotion and preparation are naturally more troublesome than ordinary albums. In addition, this is the first work of the group to promote the overseas music market. No one in the entire team dares to be negligent. They couldn't make up their minds about which music to choose, so they asked Qin Huo.

Whether the promotional music can impress the audience will directly determine the final sales of the album.Leaving aside the fact that the domestic music market is already doing badly, in many countries that still have the habit of buying records, the masses are the real power to judge the life and death of an album.However, people in every country usually have their own unique preferences for music. It is not so easy to please the majority of people with a song. Qin Huo glanced across the list and clicked on the number one. One's "From Now", after a few seconds, the melodious melody floated out from the earphones.

This is a slow song, with a completely different style from "Chasing", but it has Harakami's distinctive personal characteristics, that is, the ability to instantly relax the mind.The sky is blue, the warm wind is blowing gently, and in the endless world, music breaks into the picture with a melodious rhythm.Yuanshang's deep and melodious singing voice seemed to be whispering in the ear, which made people's whole heart go numb. Qin Huo sighed deeply, and couldn't help but lay on his back in the chair and closed his eyes. It was like being blown on the face by a scented wind, and the vitality and warmth penetrated into the blood.

However, after this short-lived happiness, the melody suddenly turned into a deep sorrow, and the male voice singing was steady and vigorous, as if he was describing his lost love. Qin Huo didn't have much emotional experience, but he seemed to have touched the deep love in it Generally, can't help but feel sad.The soft world pales instantly because of a person's departure, and even the blue sky turns gray because of this. The affectionate man can't bring back the lover who has made up his mind, and can only miss him alone at the back of the other person who left——

--"I love you."

Qin Huo opened his eyes suddenly, his whole body was hot, and his chest was pounding.

He hastily pulled off the earphone cable and took a sip of water, then pinched the bridge of his nose and blinked hard, only then did he completely drive away the numbness spreading from his back.

********

The heat of the competition for the award ceremony has not subsided much after several months, but the two main forces in the original scolding war have long since subsided, and they have pinched for several months, and no one is bothered.Yuanshang’s agent Weibo posted on Weibo during the most serious days of the situation: “Right and wrong, time will decide.” After that, no response was given. Fans found out from various channels that Yuanshang was working on a new album. After receiving the news, he focused his attention on the work.

As the release date approached, the company carried out intensive publicity. The official announcement video that started five days ago released a countdown event. Until 1 minute before the final time, the number of views displayed in the background had reached an astonishing number.

Dozens of domestic and foreign music platform accounts have already uploaded the song, and the publishers of the music department met each other's eyes and clicked on it tacitly.
