Chapter 165 173 Golden Melody Awards, Please Pay the Advertising Fee
The first non-Taiwanese Golden Melody King in the eight-year history of the Golden Melody Awards.
The first musician to win the Best Composer, Best Album Producer, and Golden Melody King in the eight-year history of the Golden Melody Awards.
The youngest king in the history of Chinese pop music!
The eyes of the Taiwanese music scene followed the young man who looked too young, had a straight back like a bamboo, and was full of vigor and vitality, watching him step steadily and step by step onto the star-studded award stage.
Following Xu Chen's footsteps, the eyes of the Taiwanese music scene were jealous, lost, or happy, and finally only Xu Chen's back could be seen in sight.
Qi Qin, Zhang Yu, Shiyilang, Wu Bai...
The old king of the Taiwanese music scene looked lost, and when he saw Xu Chen, he thought of his former self.
Xu Chen was too young. He won the Golden Melody King, which marked that the middle-aged generation of the Chinese pop music scene officially took over the old king and seized power. Their era was over.
Several people are iconic singers in the Taiwanese music scene. Although they feel lost, they are not resentful.
There is no shady deal in Xu Chen's winning.
His album "Unparalleled in the World" is a first-class work without any shortcomings, judging from the four dimensions of music concept, music style, album quality and sales.
"Xu Chen, congratulations, Unparalleled in the World is great!"
Xu Chen walked down the steps from the corridor in the middle of the awards ceremony, and there were stars from Taiwan's music scene sitting on both sides of the corridor.
He has few friends in Taiwan's music scene, and now he is picking three peaches by himself. It's good that Taiwan's music scene doesn't exclude him.
I didn't expect someone to congratulate him.
"Thank you, Brother Dehua." Xu Chen hugged Andy Lau.
Andy Lau has a good personality, and he and Zhang Rongguo have the same manager. Xu Chen praised each other commercially: "Brother Dehua's Hua Xia Ren is also great. I sang this song with Brother Zhang when I sang K the day before yesterday."
"Achen likes Hua Xia Ren. I'll ask my assistant to mail two copies later." Andy Lau smiled warmly.
Xu Chen won the Golden Melody Award at the age of 18 and is a top creator in the Chinese music scene.
Old Liu is one of the Four Heavenly Kings. Although he doesn't kneel down to lick Xu Chen, it's good to make friends. Maybe they can arrange songs.
"Thank you, brother Dehua, see you at the Spring Festival Gala." Xu Chen has thought of the song he wrote for Andy Lau.
It's the song: "My hometown is in this village~"
The award ceremony was rushed, and Xu Chen didn't say much to Andy Lau.
Just as Andy Lau sat down, Leon Lai beside him smiled casually: "Wah Tsai, Chen Tsai sings well and looks handsome, you must be under pressure."
Leon Lai and Andy Lau competed for the first idol in the 1990s, and Leon Lai was holding back.
"I'm making movies now. Ah Chen and you are on the same route. Leon Lai, you must be under a lot of pressure." Andy Lau didn't tolerate it.
The pretty boy wanted to fight with him, really thinking he was an idol! Andy Lau relies on his strength to make his way in the entertainment industry!
"..." Leon Lai leaned against the back of the chair and said casually: "Xu Chen is not as handsome as me."
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Zhang Huimei ran from her seat to the aisle and waited for Xu Chen.
"Achen, congratulations, the youngest Golden Melody Award winner in the Chinese pop music scene." Zhang Huimei said in a boyish voice.
She was happier than herself when Xu Chen won the award. After all, it was too difficult for Xu Chen, a mainlander, to win the Taiwan Golden Melody Award!
What's more, he won three awards alone!
At the award ceremony, the Taiwan pop music scene watched their little diva from Taiwan come to them shamelessly, grinning and shaking their heads.
Even though Xu Chen is indeed very good, you can't give him away for nothing!
It took Xu Chen 4 minutes to walk a distance of less than 2 minutes.
Zhang Huimei opened Pandora's box, and Richie Jen and Coco Lee joined in the fun, lining up to hug and congratulate him.
In a sense, Xu Chen is now worthy of the title of the middle-aged leader of the Chinese pop music scene.
Singers of the same generation, such as Richie Jen, Zhang Huimei, and Coco Lee, have no authoritative music award certification!
"Mr. Xu, congratulations, you deserve the title of Golden Melody King."
The Golden Melody King award presenters were the seventh King of Singers, Jeff Chang, and the soul of Taiwan's music scene, Li Zongsheng.
Li Zongsheng is not very old. Born in 1958, he is now 39 years old, at the golden age of his life.
But in the Chinese music scene, especially in Taiwan's music scene, he dares to say he is second, and Luo Dayou dares to say he is first.
"Mr. Xu, congratulations, Taiwan media say that Mr. Xu is a copy of Li Zongsheng, I dare not agree with this, Mr. Xu is Mr. Xu." Li Zongsheng sighed.
Richie Jen, who was strongly promoted by Rolling Stone, missed the Golden Melody King, and Xu Chen, who released the album on behalf of Rolling Stone, won the Golden Melody King unexpectedly.
Unintentional planting willows willows grow into shades.
Rolling Stone gave its own feedback. Li Zongsheng personally vindicated Xu Chen at the Golden Melody Awards Ceremony...
He is not a copy of Li Zongsheng...
He is him!
Under the bright lights, Xu Chen took over the Golden Melody Award trophy, a golden candlestick.
The light was bright, Xu Chen weighed it, it was very easy to crack walnuts, and it was not worth selling scrap metal.
Xu Chen thought about his acceptance speech.
He went on the podium three times tonight, and his first and second acceptance speeches were very simple.
Now he has won the Golden Melody King. If he doesn't say a few more words, his visit to the Taiwan music scene is not in vain!
Xu Chen looked at the audience.
In the huge award ceremony hall, the Taiwan music scene is full of talents. The older generation Li Zongsheng, Wu Bai, and Zhang Yu are still sharp, and the middle generation Ren Xianqi and Zhang Huimei are two stars.
The new generation Tao Jiji and Zhou Jielun are ready to go. If they don't make a name for themselves, they will be amazing. The old, middle-aged and young generations continue to pass on.
In comparison,
He is the only one in the mainland music scene, and there is a lack of successors between the middle and new generations. Although the mainland music market is large, the Chinese music scene is left to Taiwan and Hong Kong to dominate, and Xu Chen is not very happy about this.
The Taiwan music scene has taken control of the Chinese music scene, starting with Xu Chen winning the Golden Melody Award and ending with him.
Xu Chen was filled with emotions, and finally smiled and stared at Richie Jen and Zhang Huimei, indicating the trophy: "I am very happy to receive this award, but what makes me happiest is not the award, but that I came to the Chinese music scene and made many close friends in music. Brother Qi, sister, I will wait for you in the mainland music scene!"
There are too few authoritative awards in the mainland music scene, and Xu Chen plans to find a way to organize a mainland Golden Melody Award when he returns, and then Taiwan and Hong Kong will go to the mainland to receive the award.
Xu Chen's acceptance speech was too simple, and only a very few Taiwan music scene bosses heard the hidden meaning.
Li Zongsheng and Qi Qin shook their heads and grinned. Xu Chen wanted to divide the music landscape of the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong with his courage, which was too naive.
The Golden Melody Award Golden Melody Award King was won by Xu Chen, and the Golden Melody Award Queen was awarded to Zhang Qingfang.
The other awards were almost the same as the list of winners made by the Taiwan newspaper. It can only be said that although the Golden Melody Awards have been reformed, they cannot escape the bad habit of sharing the fruits.
At 8:30 p.m., the Taiwan Golden Melody Awards came to an end.
Xu Chen was the biggest winner of the Golden Melody Awards, and several good friends clamored for him to treat them.
Xu Chen naturally would not refuse, and he rushed away with a large number of people from the Taiwan music scene.
Li Zongsheng and Qi Qin met Xu Chen at the door with subtle expressions.
Xu Chen caught all the elites of the Taiwan music scene in one fell swoop, and also kidnapped Peng Jiahui, the best newcomer of the Golden Melody Awards.
Richie Jen, Rene Liu, Fish Leong, and Xu Huaiyu under Rolling Stone, Zhang Huimei and Peng Jiahui of Jushi Music under Feidie, Cai Zhennan of Shanghua Records, and Coco Lee under Sony...
Several music companies fought to the death, and the singers under the companies were talking and laughing, and they were having a good time.
Xu Chen's popularity in the Taiwan music scene is too terrible!
………………
"Old Xu, how does it feel to be the youngest Golden Melody King in history?" Warner Zhou Jianbin rubbed his eyes and saw Xu Chen who was surrounded in the middle.
He wanted to complain about Xu Chen's unscrupulousness. There were only girls around him, and all the male singers were self-reliant.
"Old Zhou, thank you for your kindness. I will help you make a fortune with the next album." Warner contributed greatly to Xu Chen's winning of the award.
He and Zhou Jianbin have a good relationship, and harmless jokes can bring them closer.
"Old Xu, get in the car and talk. Ladies, please rest assured that I will escort Xu Chen to you intact." Zhou Jianbin smiled nonchalantly with his arm on the car window.
"Mr. Zhou, you just need to take Xu Chen to Ximending to settle the bill tomorrow morning. It doesn't matter if he doesn't come, as long as the money comes!" Coco Lee stuck out her pink tongue.
Wild and charming, she was followed by Sony's newcomer Wang Lihong.
Wang Lihong was dressed in a suit and had a fair and handsome appearance, but he was an introvert. Seeing Xu Chen staring at him, he smiled shyly and avoided his gaze.
Several cars drove towards Ximending.
Zhou Jianbin brought Xu Chen the latest news about the Southeast Asian release of "Unparalleled in the World".
"Old Xu, we won the Golden Melody Award this time, the Best Newcomer Silver Award of Hong Kong's Top Ten Golden Songs, and the sixth place of the Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs. The market foundation for releasing albums in Southeast Asia is established. I plan to release the album in mid-March 1998."
Hong Kong Golden Melody and Formosa Golden Melody are the vanes of Chinese music in Southeast Asia.
Xu Chen won all three awards and entered the Southeast Asian market.
"Okay, Old Zhou, you can arrange it. If you need my cooperation, just tell me." Xu Chen sold the album distribution rights to Zhou Jianbin.
He did not get a share, but Zhou Jianbin supported him and helped Xu Chen to the best of his ability without hesitation.
"Singapore's Golden Melody Awards didn't take place this year, but there will be an award in mid-March next year. Old Xu, I've signed you up, so you'll have to go to Singapore."
"Singapore Golden Melody Awards?"
Zhou Jianbin explained: "Old Xu, the Singapore Golden Melody Awards were held in 1993. The popularity of Jacky Cheung and Princess' albums in Southeast Asia is inseparable from the increase in the Singapore Golden Melody Awards, after all, Southeast Asia is within Singapore's radiation range."
"Okay." Xu Chen looked out the car window, and Taipei looked brand new after the rain.
His career also looked brand new with this sudden rainstorm.
Zhou Jianbin adjusted the radio button.
The female host of the radio station was broadcasting the news: "It is reported that the 8th Formosa Golden Melody Awards was successfully held at the Taipei International Convention and Exhibition Center at 5:00 this afternoon. The Golden Melody King and Queen of this year were won by mainland singer Xu Chen and Taiwan singer Zhang Qingfang respectively."
"Old Xu, it seems that you will be on the news page of the entire Formosa tomorrow." Zhou Jianbin smiled.
Warner bets on Xu Chen, and if one party withers, all will wither, and if one party prospers, all will prosper. Xu Chen's achievements will add fuel to Warner's empire.
"By the way, Lao Xu, although your winning the award is inseparable from Warner's public relations, the most important factor is that you were treated unfairly in the Hong Kong Top Ten Golden Songs Awards."
Xu Chen thought about it, damn, let's pay the Golden Melody Awards advertising fee!
The eighth reform of the Golden Melody Awards, the awards cover the Chinese-speaking regions, and the Formosa propaganda department is ready to make it an authoritative award in the Chinese music scene.
Xu Chen was wronged in the Hong Kong Top Ten Golden Songs Awards, and the shady dealings of the Top Ten Golden Songs Awards were exposed, and the authority of the Hong Kong Golden Melody Awards was damaged.
Now the Formosa Golden Melody Awards has awarded Xu Chen three major awards, which is to tell the Chinese music scene directly: "Our Formosa Golden Melody Awards are fair, open, and just, which is completely different from those coquettish bitches in Hong Kong who are involved in shady dealings and dividing peaches. You all come to the Formosa Golden Melody Awards!"
Xu Chen is a walking advertising machine that the Golden Melody Awards paid a lot of money to buy horse bones.
Damn it!
Xu Chen looked at the three Golden Melody Awards trophies, feeling grief-stricken. He had lost a lot this time!
…………
Ren Xianqi used the name of celebrating for Xu Chen to promote his own music.
The whole island of Taiwan’s middle and new generation elites advertised for her for free.
Rolling Stone trainees Liang Rujing and Xu Huaiyu were coaxed and deceived by him to sing in the concert pool.
The lights were dim, and Xu Chen hugged the bottle of wine to cheer Liang Rujing.
Liang Rujing’s Mandarin was very difficult to speak, but she sang Malaysian folk songs in a melodious and light way.
Xiao Zhou stared at her.
“Jay, you like Jingru, if you like her, you should have the courage to pursue her. If you don’t have the courage, I will ask Jingru to give it to you.” Xu Chen put his arm on Jay Chou’s shoulder.
The young man admired her. Liang Rujing was just 19 years old, young and beautiful, with two little white rabbits tied to her pair of flawless white snow boots.
She was slender and pouting, her white and tender hands were like trumpets, and her pink lips were pouting. No wonder Xiao Zhou couldn’t stand it.
Who can stand an 18-year-old virgin?
"Puff..." Jay Chou spat out a mouthful of wine in fear, and had no time to complain about Xu Chen's unscrupulousness.
Pulling a tissue, hunching his back, he wiped the man's crotch in a hurry, and apologized hurriedly: "Wang Lihong, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."
Wang Lihong held his pants tightly with both hands, and he was sunny and cheerful.
But Xiao Zhou hunched his back and held a white toilet paper to wipe his crotch. He was not a virgin, and he retreated in an instant, speechless: "It's okay, it's okay, Jay Chou, I can do it myself."
Xu Chen silently raised the camera, clicked, and ruthlessly recorded the black history.
Don't ask why there is a camera, just take a black history to threaten Jay Chou...
Jay, you don't want me to expose the photos of you wiping Wang Lihong's crotch on the Internet!
"Brother Chen, don't bully children, Leehom, call me Brother Chen, the Dragon's Descendants that you like very much was created by Brother Chen," Coco Lee rolled her eyes.
Xu Chen always likes to bully children. It was he who instigated Liang Rujing to sing, under the pretext of training Liang Rujing's courage.
The little girl is indeed very shy, but Xu Chen made the sunny and cheerful Wang Lihong introverted, and Coco Lee couldn't understand why.
"Brother Chen, your Dragon's Descendants combines DJ electronic music rhythms with Chinese pop music hip-hop rock style, which gave me a real and vivid lesson."
Wang Lihong is exploring the Chinked out style, and Xu Chen's Dragon's Descendants is a standard template.
"Leehom, I have heard of your rival Beethoven. You tried to combine jazz and pop POP styles in your album, which is very good. In the next album, you can try to combine R&B with ROCK, or string quartet, and your singing style is very suitable." Xu Chen instructed his little brother.
Always taking advantage of Wang Lihong, Xu Chen is ready to repay him and give him a real life lesson.
Xu Chen and Wang Lihong discussed music, while Jay Chou, Vincent Fang, and Tao Jiji were eavesdropping.
After a while.
After Liang Rujing finished singing, she naturally sat down next to Jay Chou, resting her chin on her hands to listen to Xu Chen's lecture.
Poor little Zhou, her face was as red as a monkey's butt, and she didn't even have the heart to listen to her favorite class with Brother Chen.
…………
Xu Chen popularized the concept of future composition to the new generation of Chinese singers.
The two sides of the Taiwan Strait and the Chinese pop music scene have been in an uproar because Xu Chen won three awards at the Formosa Golden Melody Awards!
Although the Formosa Golden Melody Awards are not as prestigious as the Hong Kong Golden Melody Awards and the Dragon and Tiger Golden Melody Chart, they are indeed the authoritative awards for Chinese music.
Xu Chen lost the Hong Kong Top Ten Golden Songs on November 29, losing to Nicholas Tse in the award competition.
Chinese pop singers secretly despise the inside story of the Top Ten Golden Songs.
As a result, on December 27, in less than 30 days, Xu Chen won the Golden Melody Awards in Taiwan and was crowned the Golden Melody King.
Even a fool can see that the Golden Melody Awards in Taiwan have declared war on the Hong Kong Golden Melody Awards to compete for the most authoritative award in the Chinese pop music scene.
Hong Kong music news is overwhelming, denouncing the shady dealings of the Golden Melody Awards in Taiwan. How can Xu Chen, a newcomer in the music scene, defeat Qi Qin and Eric Moo to win the Golden Melody King?
The Taiwan music scene is not to be outdone. The Golden Melody Awards leaked the details of Xu Chen's winning. The reason for commenting on Xu Chen as the Golden Melody King is Xu Chen's subversive music concept and composition style.
Xu Chen did not win any award in the Hong Kong Top Ten Golden Songs Awards. The awards are all for Hong Kong people. Otherwise, the Hong Kong Golden Melody Awards should be renamed the Hong Kong Peach Festival!
Qi Qin and Wu Qixian were convinced by the interview with reporters: "Although Xu Chen is young, he is indeed very talented and deserves the title of Taiwan Golden Song King."
Moreover, Li Zongsheng supported Xu Chen in the interview with reporters: "Xu Chen's musical creation talent is rare in the Chinese pop music scene. I think the future of the Chinese pop music scene is him."
Old Li does not admire Xu Chen's creative ability, but his ability to make friends.
The Hong Kong music scene is a dud, and the real owner has lost and is convinced. It is useless for them to defend the injustice.
The Hong Kong Top Ten Golden Songs leaked the details of Xu Chen's winning, and the reason was completely untenable. Xu Chen's loss to Nicholas Tse is the evidence!
The Taiwan music scene and the Hong Kong music scene are fighting fiercely.
The mainland music scene is also in chaos.
The day after the news in the Guangdong Daily was published, the news that Xu Chen sang in a wedding dress at the Hong Kong Leslie Cheung concert and supported Leslie Cheung's homosexual relationship quickly spread in the mainland.
The mainland newspapers were full of bad intentions, criticizing Xu Chen for being immoral and unworthy of being a role model for the mainland music scene.
As a result, other newspapers published reports that Xu Chen won the Golden Melody Awards in Taiwan, won the Golden Melody King, and crowned Xu Chen as a role model for the mainland music scene.
Some even praised Xu Chen as the leader of the mainland music scene!
After reading several newspapers.
The mainland audience was completely dumbfounded. Can Xu Chen really be a role model for the mainland music scene? Are you crazy? Otherwise, why don’t you have a private fight and then publish the news?
However.
The mainland audience finally understood that Xu Chen was very popular in Hong Kong and Formosa. He was a success in both Formosa and Hong Kong.
………………
The news was noisy, and the time moved to January 1, 1998.
Xu Chen stayed in Formosa for a few more days.
He had too many things to do in Formosa!
This day, he spent two days discussing the details of "My Fair Princess" with Qiong Yao, and took Liang Rujing, Li Wenli, and Zhang Huimei to Taipei for a day of sightseeing.
He supervised Zhou Jielun and Fang Wenshan's creation for a day.
When Xu Chen was about to return to the mainland from Taipei, Zhou Jielun and Fang Wenshan were very diligent in packing their luggage. Xu Chen kept staring at them with a camera, and they were almost depressed.
"Brother Chen, goodbye!" Liang Rujing wore a snow-white fluffy hat on her ears.
Snow shoes are cute and playful. She is a little shy to call Brother Chen, and she sticks out her pink tongue in embarrassment.
"Brother Chen, see you at the concert!" Zhang Huimei and Coco Lee are much more generous.
They are not worried about the reporters taking pictures, and give Xu Chen a big hug.
"Little sister, Awen, see you at the concert, Jingru, you must work hard!" Xu Chen carried the luggage and hugged.
He left the three girls with their backs, and took Li Bingbing on the flight back to the mainland.
