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

Chapter 196: The walking CD player, a famous scene at the Golden Melody Awards [Please order in full! 】

YES933's Intoxicating Channel [Top Popular Music Radio] broadcasts Chinese pop music, with listeners covering the Chinese community in Southeast Asia. It is also the radio station with the highest listening rate in Singapore.

The 933 Golden Melody Awards were discontinued in 1997, which was regretted by the Chinese in Southeast Asia and Singapore.

It’s hard to leave the homeland, and fallen leaves return to their roots. For thousands of Chinese wandering in foreign lands, [xiangyin] is the bridge for their souls to return to their homeland.

1998 years.

The 933 Golden Melody Awards were re-organized, and Chinese people in Southeast Asia and Singapore immediately squatted in front of TV and radio stations to watch the awards show.

Singapore, a high-rise residential building.

It was raining heavily outside the window, and the sky was gloomy and gloomy.

Inside the window, several junior high school girls were nestled on the sofa. The oldest girl turned her head and stared at the window, kicked her sister next to her, and said lazily: "Stefanie, please go and close the window."

"Why did you ask me to go! The awards show has started, and I want to watch TV!" Stefanie Sun looked pretty and showed her big white teeth when she spoke.

She is obsessed with music. She has learned piano since she was a child. She sang on stage at the age of 10 and dreams of becoming a professional singer.

The 933 Golden Melody Awards, a career dream that almost every Singaporean singer dreams of, Stefanie Sun is no exception. She stares at the TV and refuses to look away, even for a second!

"I said yes!" Sister Sun Yanjia also stared at the TV with a focused expression.

On TV.

The director switched the camera and pointed it at the audience area. The dimly lit audience area was flashing with colorful fluorescent lights, which eventually converged into a river of lights, lighting up the word [Xu Chen]!

"Besides, my sister, your sister, if I tell you to go and take care of yourself, you have to go." Sun Yanjia did not bow her head.

He kicked his legs wildly and shouted excitedly: "I'm not the only one who likes Xu Chen, hahaha, his [Descendants of the Dragon] and [Heaven and Earth Dragon Scales] are so cool!"

With his eyes fixed on the TV, he sighed: "Xu Chen will probably go to the Golden Melody Awards to accept the award. With him this time, well, he will definitely come!"

"Crazy woman." Stefanie Sun was very incomprehensible to her sister's fanatical crush on Xu Chen!

The window was making random noises and the cold wind was whistling. Stefanie Sun crossed her legs, kicked the youngest girl next to her, and said lazily: "Sun Yanmei, please go and close the window." '

"Why did you ask me to go?" Sun Yanmei held the bottle.

"My sister, your sister, besides, I said yes." Stefanie Sun spread her hands: "You have to go if I tell you to, sister, you are right."

"Just go, why are you staring at me?" Sun Yanmei pouted and muttered angrily.

【Andy Lau! 】

On TV, the awards ceremony seemed deserted. Hosts Zeng Xiaoying and Guo Liang tried their best to liven up the atmosphere. Unfortunately, none of the award-winning stars were present, and the most anticipated and thrilling announcement of the awards was also missing...

The entire awards show was overshadowed by dust.

Zeng Xiaoying looked at the winning card and said to the guest area: "Mr. Andy Lau has entrusted Mr. Xu Chen to help receive the award. Please come to the stage."

"Xu Chen. Xu Chen!"

"Xu Chen, Xu Chen!"

The director's camera shot cut to Xu Chen, who was wearing a suit and leather shoes, holding a button tightly with one hand. His handsome and elegant appearance instantly caused enthusiastic screams in the audience area, and the sound waves turned the roof.

Next to him sat Fan Wenfang, the most beautiful woman in Singapore.

Fan Wenfang raised her head, smiled, and applauded to congratulate Andy Lau!

The director knows how to capture shots. In the composition, the man in a suit and leather shoes is handsome and handsome, and the beautiful woman is gentle and demure. Their eyes meet each other, and they look like a couple of gods and goddesses, with a look that lasts for eternity.

Stefanie Sun covered her ears tightly with her hands, feeling unbearable pain. Her elder sister went crazy, her legs spread wildly, she was as excited as a big hen, clucking and screaming: "So handsome, so handsome, hahaha~ Fan Wenfang and Xu Chen are so perfect for each other, cluck cluck~ "

"Also..." Stefanie Sun stared and muttered: "He's really handsome. He helped Andy Lau receive the award. He is also an idol, right?"

Stefanie Sun is much more sober than her elder sister. She is not interested in celebrities, and she is handsome but cannot be regarded as handsome. Her idol princess not only sings well, but is also very cool!

…………

[933 Enchanting Golden Melody Awards] The recording studio is very small, with dozens of people in the audience area and a few people in the guest area, all of whom are local Singaporean singers.

The fans and popularity are hard to describe.

The once glorious [933 Enchanting Golden Melody Awards] is in such a bleak situation. Hosts Zeng Xiaoying and Guo Liang feel sad. Fortunately, Xu Chen’s fans are very awesome and keep screaming and shouting...

It added a bit of brilliance to the entire bleak awards show.

Andy Lau won the "Most Popular Male Singer Award" for the song "Lone Star Tears". Xu Chen accepted the award on Andy's behalf. He made trouble in his acceptance speech and shouted from the air: "Please remember that the singer who won the Most Popular Male Singer Award is... "

"Andy Lau!"

"I hope it will be me next time! Thank you!" Xu Chen was not afraid of offending Andy Lau and made harmless jokes.

His wanton arrogance made fans scream and scream. Xu Chen is really cool.

"Mr. Xu!" Guo Liang is in charge of typhoon stability and is especially good at handling [emergency incidents].

Xu Chen's high popularity is in sharp contrast to the desolation of "933 Golden Songs", which is both cold and desolate.

Guo Liang had a sudden idea and called Xu Chen: "Mr. Xu, you accept the trophy on behalf of Mr. Andy Lau. Didn't Mr. Andy Lau tell you that you also want to sing the award-winning song on his behalf?"

"That's right, Mr. Xu!" Zeng Xiaoying understood her partner's intention instantly.

Xu Chen just shouted to Andy Lau from a distance, hoping that he can win the "Most Popular Male Singer Award" next time. Common sense infers that the two may compete in the ring.

Now Xu Chen is invited to sing Andy Lau's song "Lone Star Tears", which is indeed a highlight in the desolate awards show!

Besides...

Xu Chen’s fans are so awesome!

The idol wanted to sing Andy Lau's "Tears of the Lone Star". Fans waved their light sticks, eager to hear their idol sing, and screamed: "Xu Chen! Xu Chen!"

Off stage, guest area.

The local Singaporean singer took a sneak peek at the audience area, touched the bridge of his nose awkwardly, put one hand on his forehead, and looked shameless in front of others!

Shame on you!

In Singapore's local music awards, Andy Lau and Wang Fei are very popular. They can understand it, but a new singer from mainland China turns out to be equally popular in Singapore...

If the focus is higher than theirs, it’s hard to understand and unacceptable!

Now Xu Chen sings Andy Lau's song "Tears of the Lone Star". Although he is very cautious about revealing it, the Singaporean singer is secretly happy.

Andy Lau [Four Heavenly Kings], his [Lone Star Tears] is not simple, Xu Chenneng...

Xu Chen can't sing well!

There is no reason, just Andy Lau [Four Heavenly Kings], Xu Chen is a newcomer in the Chinese music scene, and Xu Chen won [Best Song Performance Male Singer], but the song performance ability was lost to Andy Lau...

The logic is correct, but the audience is not logical!

Fan Wenfang held her chin with one hand. Her face was very pleasant, virtuous and gentle, and her watery eyes were as gentle as water.

She had a good impression of Xu Chen, after all, he was polite and handsome, and Xu Chen was very surprised and said: "Sister Wenfang, you are my idol. Sister Wenfang did a great job in [Destined to End Life]!"

Fan Wenfang couldn't help but worry about her fans.

…………

Andy Lau [Lone Star Tears].

Xu Chen didn't expect to receive the award on his behalf, but an accident occurred on his behalf.

What's more, in addition to Andy Lau, he also helped Zhang Huimei and the princess receive awards.

If he sang Andy Lau's "Tears of the Lone Star", Zhang Huimei's "Listen to the Sea", and Wang Fei's "One Hundred Years of Solitude", wouldn't he have to sing them all!

Moreover, he himself also has to sing the song "Li Ge", 4 songs in 4 different styles, and besides, there are 3 Chinese pop singers Zhu Yu who are kings and queens in front of him.

If his singing effect is too weak, fans will never be able to hold their heads up!

"Mr. Guo, Miss Zeng, I like Brother Dehua [Lone Star Tears] very much." Xu Chen thought for a moment.

Give it a try and turn your bicycle into a motorcycle. Although the risk is high, the benefits are not small!

[933 Golden Songs] is aimed at Southeast Asia, Singapore, and is broadcast live in Japan and South Korea. The radio station covers a population of nearly million. If he can perfectly perform the songs of Andy Lau, Wang Fei, and Zhang Huimei...

When his album landed in Southeast Asia, it became a gimmick. It’s not an exaggeration to say that it’s a walking CD player. It’s awesome!

Xu Chen agreed. Zeng Wenfang and Guo Liang looked at each other, glanced at the hot awards show, and with smiles on their lips, they made room for Xu Chen to take the stage.

…………

Backstage.

Zeng Wenfang and Guo Liang were called over by the leader. [933 Golden Melody Awards] was broadcast live on Singapore TV Channel 933 and broadcast on Radio at the same time.

The leader attaches great importance to TV ratings and warned: "Xu Chen is very topical. We should direct more topics to him at the awards show in the future. The current ratings are 9.2 and we will strive for 10.5."

10.5, [933 Golden Melody Awards] is the lowest ratings in the past. It can maintain 10.5, at least it is not embarrassing.

Zeng Wenfang and Guo Liang looked at each other, both feeling helpless. The task was too arduous. There were no celebrities and no awards were announced. The music awards ceremony lacked two major gimmicks. It was difficult to guarantee ratings!

Worried backstage.

Xu Chen carried the electric guitar, adjusted the height of the microphone, coughed twice, tried the sound, and signed OK to the sound staff.

[Tears of the Lone Star], the theme song of the movie [Black Gold], composed by Wubai, popular lyrics, sung by Andy Lau.

Wu Bai's music style expresses his heart directly. He is particularly good at catchy lyrics and exciting and brisk melodies. Both of these make Wu Bai's songs simple.

In other words, after listening to it twice, you dare to say [Wu Bai knows nothing about Wu Bai]!

Because it is simple, it is difficult. It requires extremely strong [emotional rendering power] to portray the extraordinary joys and sorrows under ordinary lyrics.

The lights at the awards show were dim.

Xu Chen gently played the electric guitar, the sound accompaniment flowed, the prelude was very brisk, and the beats from the microphone were like the thumping of the heart.

After tapping for 5 seconds, Xu Chen's fingertips were like butterflies, flying on the electric guitar. In an instant, the dynamic electronic sound was released, and the electronic sound was like a storm.

Xu Chen's slightly hoarse voice seemed to contain broken glass in his throat, and he vomited blood every word: "I am a tear from a lone star in the distance/It has been hidden in you for tens of thousands of years/All your thoughts are seen by me/Let me Warm your face/slip quietly on your face..."

Backstage.

Zeng Wenfang and Guo Liang are both senior hosts of [933 Zuixin Channel], especially Guo Liang, the founder of the channel.

Zuixin channel concept: "Sing more and talk less, no interference!"

The idea is to talk less and sing more, without being disturbed by the status and popularity of the Chinese music scene, and to select the most classic and beautiful songs for the audience.

"Xu Chen's singing is very good, completely different from Andy Lau." Zeng Wenfang listened with her eyes closed.

Andy Lau's "Lone Star Tears" has perfect control of breath and singing, and his skills in performing the song are not shallow. In comparison, Xu Chen's breath is very stable, but his singing has flaws.

The words "Zhi Wenjue" are full of emotions and are very contagious. Zeng Wenfang can hear the sadness in the song even when she closes her eyes.

"Andy Lau's singing style is not as good as Xu Chen's." Guo Liang tapped his fingers on the wall and kept up the beat.

In "The Four Heavenly Kings", Andy Lau ranks in the top three for his singing skills. He is guaranteed to take the third place and grab the second place. However, his shortcomings are obvious and his craftsmanship is too high.

To put it simply, Andy Lau tried his best to sing well, but it was precisely this kind of "excessive effort" that prevented him from reaching the threshold of a top singer.

Attention, touch threshold!

Talented people like Jacky Cheung, Xu Chen, and Wang Fei have stepped on the threshold and broken the ceiling above their heads.

"Xu Chen's singing style is willful and natural. He can sing however he wants." Guo Liang stared at Xu Chen's back and turned his head and said, "I have only seen this kind of relaxed and comfortable state in Jacky Cheung."

"Hong Kong singer Jacky Cheung." Zeng Wenfang did not expect Guo Liang to speak so highly of Xu Chen.

…………

Xu Chen sang [Lone Star Tears].

The Singaporean singers in the guest area were also shocked. They had deep and shallow feelings, but their emotions could not deceive others, and the atmosphere was filled with sadness and depression.

The fans were all quiet. They didn't even have the strength to hold up the support lights. They focused on the idol in the center of the stage and felt proud of him.

In front of the TV.

The three sisters nestled on the sofa were equally silly.

The eldest sister Sun Yanjia hugged the pillow to her chest, bent her knees tightly, and stared at Xu Chen who was playing and singing. She suddenly turned her head and said to her younger sister Sun Yanzi: "Second sister, do you hate me very much?"

"!!!" Stefanie Sun rolled her eyes subconsciously, the eldest sister was so clueless.

He reluctantly looked away, Xu Chen sang quite well, although not as good as the princess, but better than Andy Lau.

Stefanie Sun turned her head and asked her younger sister Sun Yanmei: "Third sister, do you hate me very much?"

"That's right!" Sun Yanmei nodded naively, hating the unscrupulous eldest sister and second sister deeply, and said with contempt: "Stefanie Sun, I hate you so much, you are so bad."

"Don't talk to the second sister/second sister like that."

Two slaps sliced ​​her skull. Sun Yanmei was indignant and muttered: "Two lunatics just listen to music, why are they so serious?"

…………

The song ends.

Xu Chen took a breath. The performance of "Lone Star Tears" was not easy, but for him, Wu Bai's "Emotional Flow" was too simple.

"Mr. Xu, thank you, that's great!" Guo Liang applauded enthusiastically.

He had a premonition that Xu Chen would become a regular at the [Singapore Golden Melody Awards]. There are very few singers with strong singing skills and creative abilities in the Chinese music scene.

"Thank you!" Xu Chen didn't stop.

Back in the guest area, Singaporean singers looked at each other in different ways, and he was used to it.

"Mr. Xu, you sang so well!" Fan Wenfang clapped gently and moved her legs.

She had a new understanding of Xu Chen. He was so charming when he sang. She tilted her head and asked with a bright smile: "Is Mr. Xu really a newcomer? Are all newcomers in the Chinese pop music world so arrogant now?"

Question + exclamation.

"Sister Wenfang, I'm just average. I have a better understanding of Andy Lau's songs, so I can sing pretty well. Other songs..."

【princess! 】

The awards ceremony continued. Zeng Wenfang and Guo Liang were now very interested in Xu Chen. The awards were announced quickly when the princess's name was announced.

Immediately afterwards, Zeng Wenfang said: "The princess entrusted Mr. Xu to help receive the award. Mr. Xu, please come up to the stage. I noticed that Mr. Xu wrote the lyrics and composed the music for the princess's award-winning song [One Hundred Years of Solitude]~"

Got it!

Andy Lau has sung it, so there’s no reason why [One Hundred Years of Solitude], which was written and composed by Xu Chen, shouldn’t be sung.

In an instant, all eyes were focused on Xu Chen, who said "933 Golden Melody Award". As a result, Xu Chen ran up and down, giving him the spotlight.

"Mr. Xu, you can sing the princess's songs even if you don't know how to sing them!" Fan Wenfang looked very gentle and demure.

Her eyes were wide open, the princess was her idol!

In the entire Chinese music scene, it is difficult for the princess to imitate her voice and singing. She is so talented!

"I understand a little, I understand a little!" Xu Chen turned his head and asked: "Sister Wenfang, do you like [One Hundred Years of Solitude]?"

"I like it!" Fan Wenfang nodded decisively.

"Then this song is for Sister Wenfang." Xu Chen smiled. He had a good impression of Fan Wenfang.

…………

Xu Chen went on stage to receive the award.

Fan Wenfang looked a little confused. Did the little fan tease her? I touched my face with the back of my hand and felt that my face was a little soupy.

But the next moment she stared at Xu Chen's back with interest, full of expectations for "One Hundred Years of Solitude".

He has a high emotional intelligence, a gentleman, and a sense of humor. Fan Wenfang has a [favorable +1] for Xu Chen!
