Chapter 343 Those People in the Music World in 1993
Chapter 343 Those people in the music scene in 1993
Last year, on May 24, 1993, a large-scale awards ceremony was held, hosted by BJ Music Station, with the participation of more than 20 people across the country.
This is the first authoritative award in the Mainland.
However, unlike other regions that award awards such as Best Male Singer, currently, the Chinese ranking list is only a song ranking list because it is a preliminary one.
The so-called ranking list is based on the playback data of more than 20 mainland radio stations, song sales and other factors.
Well, to put it bluntly, this is similar to Xiangjiang's Dragon and Tiger Golden Songs Chart, except that the judging here is based on the year.
In the music world, almost all annual awards are authoritative and heavyweight awards.
Since the establishment of this award, the connections between major radio stations have begun to increase, and this year's selection of the top ten singers has become much more grand than before.
Just like today, except for Hong Kong and Taiwan singers, almost all famous singers from the mainland are here.
In addition to Liu Huan, Na Ying, Wei Wei and other well-known mainland singers, singers such as Mao Amin, Xie Xiaodong, Cai Guoqing, Tu Honggang and others also came to the scene.
Under Liu Huan's introduction, He Jin met all these singers.
And sales, especially sales in 1993...
Also in 1993, New Era Audio and Video signed a newcomer Lin Yilun. His first album "Lovebirds" successfully attracted national attention.
Other singers also showed their talents this year.
Although He Jin was helpless about this, there was nothing he could do.
Jacky Cheung, one of the "Five Kings", released the album "Kiss Goodbye" this year. With famous songs such as "Kiss Goodbye", "Love Network", "With You Along the Road", "Love You More Every Day", it sold more than 5 million yuan.
open.
Therefore, He Jin was the first to win the honor of the top ten singers in 1993.
Well, no one said anything to He Jin, but he could feel the alienation of these people.
The same goes for Zhou Huimin. With He Jin's help, she released "Next Stop Queen" and the single "The Edge of Love and Pain", which also achieved rave reviews and sales.
Except He Jin.
With this song alone, Li Chunbo became a famous mainland singer like Lin Yilun.
In addition to Cantonese albums, his Japanese albums in Japan have exceeded two million, making him another person after Teresa Teng who has successfully climbed to the top of Japan's top singers.
Since Yang Yuying and He Jin's record sales in the mainland exceeded one million in 1992, the entire mainland market seemed to have suddenly exploded.
The reason is naturally that the Chinese music scene this year has truly reached its peak.
A music critic once said that the Chinese pop music scene in 1993 seemed to be caressed by the finger of heaven, with exciting and shocking sounds emerging one after another.
This statement is recognized by many people.
how to say!
Among the current voting lists designated by the organizer, there is no doubt that He Jin is definitely the most popular one.
At eleven o'clock sharp, the selection of the top ten singers officially began.
Without sales, no matter how good you sing, you are just entertaining alone.
In the eyes of the audience and fans, there is no difference between mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan. They are all one big China anyway.
In addition, singer Zhang Xinzhe, who has been in the industry for many years, became popular with a highly marketable song like "Love Like Tide" after he was discharged from the army.
The Hong Kong music scene is still dominated by the Five Heavenly Kings, but the rapid rise of Wang Jingwen and Zhou Huimin has posed a considerable threat to the Five Heavenly Kings.
"Xiaofang Year" and "Li Chunbo Year".
However, one thing that is often criticized about the Five Heavenly Kings is that, except for He Jin, the other four especially like to adapt and cover Japanese songs.
Of course, the singers who are voted must be selected from the organizers.
At the same time, the TV series "Bao Qingtian" has been screened in Taiwan for more than 500 episodes, making the opening song "New Mandarin Ducks and Butterflies Dream" so red that it became popular in half the sky.
Needless to say, the sales of He Jin's Cantonese album "Legend of the Wolf" reached more than 4.7 million, making it the best-selling album in the history of Cantonese records.
For this reason, Huang An was able to buy a luxury car and a luxurious house.
In addition, the December Mandarin album was released in only one month in 1993 and reached an extremely high sales volume of three million. In this month alone, the album successfully ranked fifth in annual sales.
Although the mainland circles are a little xenophobic towards He Jin, this is only true among singers.
In addition to the five kings continuing their strength from last year.
Therefore, when voting, they will only vote for the singer they like.
Perhaps it’s because He Jin debuted in Hong Kong and spent most of his time developing in Hong Kong.
With "Hua Xin", Zhou Huajian sold four million copies and became one of the few people who can stand up to the five kings.
This caused many domestic singers to be somewhat xenophobic towards him.
…
At the same time, Mao Ning, who is in the same company as Yang Yuying, is the one who He Jin doesn't want to talk about. The album "Please Let My Feelings Stay By Your Side" he released at the end of 1992 had sold over one million copies by 1993. Among them, he performed in the Spring Festival Gala
"The Sound of the Waves Are Still", which was sung on TV and became popular all over the country, is from this album.
No matter whether you sing well or not, sales are always king.
…
In the Mainland, Yang Yuying released her second album "Moon Boat", which ranked first at the Southern Audiovisual Exhibition and sold over one million copies again.
The brisk and simple music rhythm coupled with simple lyrics made this song the most popular song in the mainland as soon as it was released.
As a result, this year's selection of the top ten singers has a much higher gold content.
Throughout the year, there were more than ten albums that reached 1 million records.
This song is really popular. Walking on the street, if you pick up a random person and ask him if he knows this song, he will hum it on the spot.
In the music world, sales figures have always spoken.
Therefore, popular singers from Hong Kong and Taiwan, such as Andy Lau, have no chance to be selected.
In this way, Lin Yilun quickly flew all over China with his lovebird, and stood on the top of the mainland's pop music scene.
Then, in addition to He Jin's "Chinese", the mainland music scene in 1993 was also named by another person.
"Thank you for the love you gave me. I will never forget it in this life!"
Only three songs in Jacky Cheung's album were composed by local musicians, and the rest were adapted from Japanese songs, most of which were best-selling songs that Jacky Cheung had previously translated into Cantonese versions.
Wang Jiawen released "One Hundred Thousand Whys" this year, which was highly praised by music critics and was both well received and well-received.
"There is a girl named Xiaofang in the village. She is good-looking and kind!"
Even, to a certain extent, he is more popular than Lin Yilun.
The sales of consecutive albums were booming, and the singles were popular all over the country, making the whole year of 1993 a step further than last year.
This is a further step, not only in terms of time and sales data, but also a further step in the market.
