China Entertainment: I really don’t want to live with the queen

Chapter 188 Xu Chen, please support me in the Chinese music scene EMO, Xu Chen is good at photographing women

Xu Chen took the Qin Chi Wine crew to retreat to the bamboo forest.

The mainland music scene was not calm in March.

In mid-February, the newspaper that trumpeted the mainland music scene to open a new chapter and usher in a golden era was slapped in the face!

Under the attack of the Taiwanese and Hong Kong music circles, the mainland music scene has lifted off the fig leaf of glitz and exposed itself in front of the public.

During the Spring Festival Gala in February, Liu Huan, Sun Nan, and Naying lost the rankings one after another with the 2-day head start advantage.

Na Young and Han Hong's "Meet in 1998" was in the top 5 of CCTV's song list, replaced by Taiwanese singer Lin Ji-hyun's "Mona Lisa's Tears".

Liu Huan's "Song of a Hero" topped the song list, dominating the list for 28 days, and was replaced by Baodao singer Xu Huaiyu's "I Am a Girl".

Sun Nan's "Rescue" was in the top three on the song list, replaced by Hong Kong singer Nicholas Tse's "Love Because of Love".

At this point, only Xu Chen and Wang Fei's "Red Bean" are left in the top three mainland China radio stations' song list. With the fierce offensive of the Hong Kong and Taiwan music circles, it is only a matter of time before they fall.

What about the golden era of mainland music?

Is this the result?

The so-called golden age couldn't even hold onto the top three spots on the song charts, and was losing ground, and even...

The Hong Kong and Taiwan music circles have yet to show their fangs at their peak, but a few young singers have overturned the golden era?

News and entertainment reporters, mainly from southern entertainment newspapers, who vigorously promoted the rise of the mainland music scene, were mercilessly slapped in the face. They became angry and turned their guns on the mainland music scene.

There are people in the Mainland music industry who picked up one by one and executed them all: "The so-called golden age of the Mainland music industry is a complete joke. Naying only relies on her voice to sing, yells and drinks, and calls herself the big sister of the music industry. The result is not as good as a newcomer from the treasure island. How many years has Liu Huan been there?" , can’t change the bad habits of party singers, and has made no progress in musical achievements. Sun Nan’s rescue promised to save the mainland music scene, but now the clay Buddha is crossing the river, it is difficult to save himself..."

"Mainland audiences are extremely disappointed with the mainland music scene. Now that the national football team is making great progress, when will the mainland music scene really stand up straight?"

The entertainment newspapers in the South were criticizing her both verbally and in writing, and the music scene in the Mainland was silent and speechless.

after all……

Southern entertainment newspapers were right to criticize Xu Huaiyu, Nicholas Tse, new generation singers, and Lin Zhixuan, Mesozoic singers.

The music circles of the old, middle and new generations in Baodao and Hong Kong continue to inherit, and popular singers emerge in endlessly.

What about the mainland?

There is no need to pick up the slack, and counting on the fingers, there are only two or three people who are angry about their misfortune and hate that they don’t fight!

In the past few years, mainland newspapers were too lazy to publish news about the mainland music scene. Compared with the Taiwanese and Hong Kong music scenes, the mainland music scene is not at the same level, and they are not qualified to measure it.

However, when Xu Chen emerged from the mainland music scene and entered the Hong Kong and Taiwan music circles, the situation was different.

Xu Chen proved that the Mainland music scene is no weaker than the Hong Kong and Taiwan music circles. As a result, the results of the Mainland music scene were disastrous!

There are many critics, but there are also reflectors.

In early November.

"Contemporary Music", an authoritative music journal on the mainland music scene, published an editorial: "The past, present and future of the mainland music scene, Hong Kong music scene and Taiwanese music scene!"

In the article, Zhang Guoying, editor-in-chief of Contemporary Music Circle, analyzed the history of popular music in the three places and concluded: "Compared with the geographical location of the Taiwanese and Hong Kong music scenes, the mainland music scene lacks a vision of new music. Compared with people and people, the mainland music scene is judged by talent, not talent. The stench of oppression and exclusion is unbearable. Compared with the weather, the mainland music scene is not prosperous..."

After analyzing the problem, editor-in-chief Zhang Guoying changed his writing and expressed optimism: "The emergence of Xu Chen has brought new hope to the mainland music scene. His new music trend is not inferior to the international new music trend. He said that the Chinese music scene is just a float." The other singers were too cautious for fear of losing their spot, so he insisted on jumping up and down on the floating platform. It would be better to smash the entire floating platform..."

"He really smashed the platform. Rumor has it that Liu Huan, Na Ying, and Sun Nan praised Xu Chen's junior uncle. From then on, the mainland music industry was judged based on talent, not money..."

"The mainland music market is now better than ever. With the right location, people, and time, the mainland music scene is all occupied. I want to say, Xu Chen, please strengthen my mainland music scene!"

"Contemporary Music Circle"'s praise of Xu Chen can even be described as flattering.

But the mainland music scene did not criticize Zhang Guoying. What Zhang said makes sense!

Present facts and evidence, composed by Naying, Sun Nan, and Xu Chen, the music master of the mainland music scene in 98.

If he doesn't shoulder the mission of strengthening the mainland music scene, why can't Sun Nan, Na Ying, or Liu Huan shoulder the responsibility? Only Xu Chen can do it!

The special cover issue of "Contemporary Music" has a bold title: "Xu Chen, please strengthen our mainland music scene!"

There are many vassals!

Of course, the newspaper published: "Xu Chen, please strengthen our mainland music scene!"

It’s not that Xu Chen releases an album and overwhelms the music scene in Hong Kong and Taiwan. In the final analysis, if Xu Chen alone is strong, the mainland music scene will not be able to do the same.

What Zhang Guoying wants to express is very clear...

He hopes that Xu Chen can change the pattern of the mainland music scene. To say the least, at least break the existing pattern of the mainland music scene, allow new people to come forward, allow the music style to evolve, and create a new...

Mainland music scene!

"Bu Liu, the Mainland Golden Melody Award is imperative. There has been a lot of support from the Mainland news media and the public recently."

Peiping, CCTV building.

It's snowing heavily in Peiping and the cold wind is blowing. The CCTV building is heated and it's as warm as spring.

The white-skinned and red-soled high-heeled shoes clicked on the ground. Her eyes followed the round and plump fleshy legs. The plain white skirt reached above her knees, making her look dignified and elegant.

Zhou Tao knocked on the office door with his fair and slender fingers, paused for a few seconds, and then gently opened the door.

Suddenly a cold wind blew all over my body.

The heating was not turned on in the office and the windows were open. Zhou Tao subconsciously wanted to turn on the heating valve.

Yang Weiguang held the phone and shook his head.

It's snowy and freezing cold.

He got angry with anxiety, and the inside of his mouth was full of bubbles. He felt heartbroken when he spoke, but he put one hand on his cheek and spoke as densely and urgently as a machine gun: "Bu Liu, what's so immature about the Mainland Golden Melody Awards? What about Hong Kong and Taiwan?" Experience comes first. If we draw a circle according to the gourd, we can always do it step by step. This will be good for the mainland to create cultural buttons of Hong Kong and Taiwan..."

"Besides, there are golden roosters in mainland movies, so what's wrong with having multiple golden songs in music?"

The more he spoke, the more anxious he became.

Yang Weiguang, who was older and more senior, said he was impatient. He blew his white beard, glared and said bluntly: "Bu Liu, the ministry will take the lead on this matter. We can handle it ourselves. Isn't this the music award's charter at last year's meeting? , MTV will do it, and the Golden Melody Awards will be held as well, so what’s the problem?”

The office was bone-chillingly cold, with a cold wind blowing outside the windowsill.

Zhou Tao gently refilled the ceramic tea cup on Yang Weiguang's coffee table with hot water. His small white hands smoothed the line of her white skirt along the waistline, and her well-proportioned and plump legs were brought together.

The notebook was spread out on his knees, his eyes staring at the toes of his white shoes, as if he was turning a deaf ear.

In fact, he subconsciously tightened his grip on the pen.

Xu Chen and CCTV planned to organize the Mainland Golden Melody Awards. This matter was taken seriously by CCTV, and there were dozens of internal discussions.

The station gave a regulation, and Yang Weiguang submitted the application to the publicity department. Due to the leakage of the call information, the department rejected the regulations for the Mainland Golden Melody Awards. If the Mainland Golden Melody Award fails, it will have a big impact on Xu Chen's status in the mainland. After all, there are not many things that can gain both fame and fortune, and awards are undoubtedly the best way to gain fame.

"Okay, Bu Liu, let's meet in the afternoon to talk." Yang Weiguang hung up the phone and tightened his thick eyebrows.

He pinched his eyebrows and took a sip from the tea cup. The tea was fragrant and the water was neither cold nor hot.

He was very annoyed when his application for the Golden Melody Award did not go smoothly, but he was extremely accomplished. Moreover, Zhou Taotai was a capable and meticulous person.

"Xiao Zhou, you and Xiao Xu have a good relationship, right?" Yang Weiguang only knew that Xu Chen and Zhou Tao were siblings.

But he didn't know the specific relationship between Zhou Tao and Xu Chen.

The application for the Golden Melody Award was unfavorable, and the reason for the rejection by the ministry was simple...

Hong Kong and Taiwan currently have Golden Melody Awards, and the Mainland Golden Melody Awards may compete with each other, which may not be good for unity and is a far-fetched reason for clinging to each other.

The mainland Chinese pop music scene is too small. In other words, the mainland music scene is not booming. Even if there is a Golden Melody Award, there are very few awards in the mainland music scene.

Pop music is only the culture of foreigners, and China has its own national conditions. Holding a Golden Melody Award may exalt pop music, squeeze folk music, and may inhibit the promotion of domestic traditional culture.

The ministry gave its own opinion: "Do not support, do not oppose, do not criticize, just deal with it yourself."

Yang Weiguang had a very good impression of Xu Chen.

Now that the application for the Golden Melody Award cannot be submitted, he naturally has no time to deal with the aftermath. It happens that Zhou Tao and Xu Chen have a good relationship, so Zhou Tao will handle the aftermath. He will not hurt anyone's feelings, and he will not be a bad person.

Yang Weiguang's idea was impeccable, and Zhou Tao understood his intention instantly.

Her slender and beautiful back was as straight as a lotus branch. She smiled and said, "Yang Tai, Xu Chen recognizes me as your god sister."

It is obvious that the application for the Golden Melody Award cannot be submitted, so continuing to ask questions is useless and angering Yang Tai is not worth the gain.

Zhou Tao thought of Xu Chen, hesitated for a moment, tilted his head, pursed his lips, and said slightly reproachfully: "Yang Tai, Xu Chen is young and does things recklessly and without sense. Is there anything he didn't do well? I went down to criticize him.”

"Xiao Zhou, this godbrother of yours is amazing. If this isn't news, he will be asked to save the mainland music scene..." Yang Weiguang got the answer.

The relationship between Zhou Tao and Xu Chen is indeed close.

Yang Weiguang naturally read the news reports on Xu Chen. If he could really apply for the Golden Melody Award, he might have a chance to do it.

pity.

Yang Weiguang sighed, shook his head and said: "Xiao Zhou, I will probably not win the Golden Melody Award. Xiao Xu's family situation is miserable, and he became famous at a young age. You should talk to him about this matter. Young people should not be discouraged and must forge ahead!"

Yang Weiguang's words were sincere and his attitude was that of an elder.

"Uncle Yang, on behalf of Xiaochen, I would like to thank you for taking care of him," said the eldest sister Zhou Tao, bowing to express her gratitude.

"Xiao Zhou. You're welcome." Yang Weiguang carried his coat. He wanted to go to the ministry to see if things had improved.

Turning his head, he saw Zhou Tao standing dignifiedly, and he immediately had a good impression of her.

The little girl understands etiquette, knows how to advance and retreat, is very organized in dealing with others, and her professionalism is also remarkable.

Carrying the clothes, he said amiably: "Xiao Zhou, you are an outstanding talent in Taiwan. You must keep working hard and keep learning."

"Thank you, Uncle Yang~" Zhou Tao did not address Yang Tai respectfully.

Exited the director's office.

It snows heavily in the spring in Peiping, with a line of white on the sky. The cold wind carries goose feathers and flying snow, and the ground is frozen.

Zhou Tao thought of the Golden Melody Award and sighed subconsciously. Xu Chen had suffered very few setbacks and hoped that this incident would not affect him.

…………

"It doesn't affect it, it doesn't affect it at all. This pool is called Zhaoying Pool. No one comes here at ordinary times. You can film it as long as you want. Little girl, are you sure you want it to be shown on TV? It needs to be CCTV, right?"

YB Changning County, Sichuan Bamboo Sea.

The late spring cold is raging across the northern land, but Changning County in southern Sichuan is not affected. In the great season of spring, peach trees in the mountains are blooming.

In the Bamboo Sea in southern Sichuan, the bamboo forest blocks out the sky and the sun. When the wind passes by, the bamboo leaves sway, like a rolling green spring tide, spreading to the sky.

In 2001, Shunan Bamboo Sea was rated as a 4A scenic spot.

In 1998, the bamboo sea in southern Sichuan was primitive and undeveloped, exuding wildness, and the original bamboo forests grew wantonly.

The filming team of "Qinchi Wine" built a bamboo house in a remote place in Zhaoyingtan.

Xu Chen took the stage manager of "Qin Chi Wine" and Comrade Xiao Gao to talk to the party secretary of Nonglin Village, whose surname was Tan. He had a simple and honest face, and there was mud between his fingers. It was spring plowing season.

"Uncle Tan, don't worry, this advertisement will be broadcast on the three variety show channels of CCTV. Many people will come here after seeing the advertisement. Your village can develop tourism..."

"What's the difference between advertisements and TV dramas?" Party Secretary Tan didn't understand what value there was in bamboo.

Gao Yuanyuan was wearing a plastic raincoat.

It was very humid in the mountains in the morning, so she wasn't used to communicating with strangers. Besides, Party Secretary Tan was chattering so much that she couldn't understand him at all.

He said patiently: "Uncle Tan, there is a big difference between advertisements and TV series. TV series are very long and advertisements are short. Ours is a liquor advertisement, which is good for the promotion of Zhuhai."

The folk customs in Shu are simple. Secretary Tan waved his hands and shouldered the plow, and he was rushing to sow seeds!

He grinned his old yellow teeth and said: "Little girl, you are handsome. We believe you. I have already discussed the meal with the village. It doesn't matter if there is money or not. There are multiple pairs of chopsticks in each household. You can use this to advertise." If we take good photos, we can get some light from the suffering in our bamboo sea."

On the field, Gao Yuanyuan communicated with Party Secretary Tan.

Xu Chen, Zhang Yimou, and Lou Ye stood on the field and looked out at the endless green ocean. Not far away, the green tide split into two halves, and a clear lake was rippling.

Bamboo houses were built on the lakeside with a facade saying: "Qinchi!"

The crew is setting up a pressure-maintaining machine, and the bamboo rafts on the lake are pulling steel wires, and the work is in full swing.

Lou Ye rubbed his eyes, so convinced!

When he was filming the movie "Suzhou River", the crew had less than 30 people, and the big machine didn't even see it.

Xu Chen shot a commercial for "Qin Chi Wine" with a crew of 86 people, including lighting, art, costumes, and styling. He also brought a martial arts instructor. He thought he was shooting a movie instead of just shooting an advertisement.

His request was no less than that of the movie. He raised his arm and pointed at the bamboo shoots: "Old Lou, the style of our advertisement can only be described in two words: aesthetic, a blend of people, scenery, and emotion."

"Poetry, pastoral scenery, martial arts tenderness, fairy wind..."

"Brother Chen, I don't dare to talk about the director in front of Director Zhang!" Lou Ye's head buzzed.

His main job is to make commercials and his side job is to make movies. He dares to pat his chest and say that he is professional. But Xu Chen asked for a lot of things. He is really not good at it, but Zhang Yimou is!
