379 The heroes of the music world bow their heads, and Cao Xuan is domineering as king(1/2)

October 3, Beijing Workers Stadium

Crowds have been gathering since noon, and before 3 o'clock, almost tens of thousands of people gathered nearby.

Today is the 5th CCTV-MTV Music Festival + 100-Star Charity Concert to Celebrate the Victory in the Fight against SARS.

Starting from mid-September, the organizing committee has successively released some performers, award guests, and nomination lists through the media. The dense list of singers and stars has left the media and outside audiences stunned.

A well-informed person soon broke the news in Tianya. It is rumored that Cao Xuan personally took action and contacted various singers. Finally, he used his reputation to attract all the heroes and was able to promote this biggest event in the Chinese music scene in the past ten years.

The nickname of Cao Da League Leader spread like wildfire.

His fans were showing off their pride, and other fans didn't argue with them.

Firstly, Cao Xuan's prestige and appeal have really shocked many people. Secondly, considering Cao Xuan's past achievements, he is already the number one person in the Chinese music scene, so it is not unreasonable to be a leader.

The most important thing is that Cao Xuan's new English album "Relea Color" will be released on September 25th.

The latest issue of Billboard No. 30 was announced. It took only half a week for three songs to land on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart.

The most popular songs "Freeloop" and "Sugar" both entered the top 50 in their first week, with "Freeloop" approaching the top 30.

You must know that September 25th is a Thursday, and it only took half a week to achieve this result. Although it largely relied on the popularity Cao Xuan accumulated last year, this outstanding start result is still worthy of special mention.

Ichiban.

Not to mention that he won two Grammys this year. Based on this, Cao Xuan claims to be second in the Chinese music world, and there is no first place in the Chinese music world.

Cao Xuan may be controversial in other aspects, but his achievements and status in the Chinese music scene are self-evident.

Except for a few trolls, basically more than 95% of people agree with him. Even if they don't like his songs, they won't open their eyes and tell lies.

The media also praised this event very much.

They are happy, just listing various celebrities will not lack any material. If there is a little friction, competing for each other's show, and competing for a position, they will start a conspiracy theory, which will keep them popular for several months.

So all the major media were dispatched, including several media from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and some Asian media also sent people.

Because this event is of a concert nature, 50,000 tickets are sold to the public. Of course, the actual sales may not be that many. There will be some parts that give away tickets, and there will also be a special artist guest area.

After all, it is an awards ceremony, and it often depends on the faces of these celebrities to attract ratings. This must be taken into consideration.

According to the original plan, the awards ceremony and concert will take a total of three and a half hours.

It officially started at 7 p.m., but around 4 p.m. guests began to enter through the side door where the red carpet was set up, and at 5:30 p.m., several other doors were opened to let the audience in.

Before entering the venue, many spectators came to the red carpet to watch the excitement. Although they were separated by special guardrails, they could still catch a glimpse of many stars.

At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the red carpet officially started. The location hosts were two newcomers from CCTV, who were responsible for introducing and interacting with the guests. The entire process was broadcast live on CCTV Music Channel.

The arrangement of the organizing committee of the CCTV-MTV Music Festival is very realistic. The less famous ones will walk on the red carpet first, and a few famous ones will come out to boost the ratings.

Influential celebrities and singers are placed in the middle and later stages, and several heavyweight guests are the finale.

Phoenix Legend was also on the red carpet today because of its boss, but because of its low reputation, it was scheduled to appear very early.

Wearing a dress specially provided by the company, she walked around the red carpet. Many viewers of "I Love to Remember Lyrics" recognized her and shouted a few times.

"Linghua!"

"That man from Phoenix Legend!"

Although Zeng Yi was a little disappointed not to be called by his name, the two of them were still a little happy to be recognized.

There were scattered cheers everywhere, although most of them were in keeping with the atmosphere, but they also made them feel warm in their hearts as they were walking on the red carpet for the first time.

It's been more than a year since Phoenix Legend joined Fanxing, and they haven't officially released a single yet.

To be more precise, the single has been produced, and more than one song has even been produced, but none of them have been released.

Among the five singers who joined Fanxing at the same time, Daolang was the first to release the single "Impulsive Punishment", which became a hit and sold well.

Currently working on his first album, he is also the only singer to be officially released by the company so far.

The other two supporting singers also released singles this year, but their results were mediocre. Although the company did not directly kick them out, related resources will definitely be reduced.

If there is no concrete improvement in the future, as new people join the company, they may be marginalized or even terminated directly.

Phoenix Legend and Gu Miaomiao have accumulated a lot of popularity due to their outstanding performance in "I Love Remembering Lyrics" and are the key singers cultivated by the company.

According to the original plan, they would release a single to debut in the first half of this year, but due to the program "Tomorrow's Star", Cao Xuan stopped it.

Cao Xuan means that the popularity of the three of them is still limited now, and it is hard to predict the effect of their debut. It is better to postpone it for a year and participate in "Tomorrow Star". After gaining enough popularity, they can skip the single and release the album directly.

Not only for the future of the three people, but also for the sake of the "Tomorrow Star" program.

Although the program does not restrict the participation of singers who have already debuted, it is only for the outside world. If a singer within Fanxing becomes famous after his debut, it would be somewhat unfair to participate in the competition. If it is pointed out afterwards, it will be a small negative news.

So it is better to wait for a year, and the three of them will directly produce the album during this year, and then go to participate in "Tomorrow's Star", which can not only increase their popularity but also promote new songs, and then wait for the show to end and use the remaining heat to debut directly.

Although the company's arrangement disappointed the three people who were eager to debut, they are not stupid either.

"Stars of Tomorrow" is a key variety show project of the company. They are Fanxing's own people. Although they won't take special care of them openly, they will definitely take care of them. It is a good opportunity to show their faces.

Moreover, the company also allowed them to turn from singles to albums, not deliberately suppressing them, but cultivating them with all their strength. They can afford this time.

And even during this period, they have always been posting on "I Love to Remember Lyrics". The monthly notification fee is not small, and the company's remuneration is also guaranteed. The three of them are willing to follow the company's arrangements.

The company was very satisfied with the obedience of the three people and was willing to give them some sweeteners, so this time they brought them to the award ceremony.

Although I can't go on stage, it's a rare experience to meet the big names in the music industry up close off the stage. Ordinary singers don't have the chance.

Phoenix Legend thought the same way and secretly stuffed several autograph books into his body, planning to shamelessly ask for autographs later to see if there was a chance to take a photo with him and show off to his friends later.

After walking through the red carpet, the two newcomers who had not yet debuted had nothing to interview. They signed their names on the signature wall with a little excitement, and then went to the guest area of ​​the infield.

The audience hadn't entered the venue yet, so the venue was empty. The two of them found their seats at the back, but they couldn't sit still at all and started chatting without anything to say.

"I wonder if King Liu is coming? I heard that there are four heavenly kings to help."

"It is said that several people came, but I don't know who they are."

For singers of their age, the Four Heavenly Kings have an extraordinary status in their hearts, and it is difficult not to pay attention to this aspect.

After chatting for more than ten minutes, people kept coming in, but most of them didn't know each other or were not familiar with each other, and they didn't dare to talk nonsense. It wasn't until Gu Miaomiao and Daolang came in that they became a little more lively.

They joined the company together and worked together in "I Love to Remember Lyrics" for more than a year. They still had a good relationship and chatted for a while.

As the time got later and later, many well-known singers and celebrities began to enter the venue one after another. The side door of the red carpet outside the venue gradually became noisy from quiet, until the sound shook the sky, and several people in the venue could hear it clearly.

"Who is this, so popular?"

"I don't know."

Several people looked at each other silently, with doubts on their faces. After a few minutes, three girls came to the guest area with smiles on their faces, and everyone understood.

Emotions are like snakes! HE released a new album this summer, and the title song "Supetar" is popular all over the country.

The phrase "You dominate, I adore you, there is no better way, I can only love you and seduce you, Mysupetar", even the children in kindergarten will hum.

Snake Group also entered the mainland market in one fell swoop and became extremely popular. It is known as the number one Chinese girl group. Even Jay Chou, Sun Yanzi and Cai Yilin had to avoid the limelight.

Phoenix Legend is still very concerned about shooting. They are also a team, and they may have to deal with each other in some places in the future.

Although the opponent is a giant to them so far, the two still do not want to weaken their momentum.

However, the Snake Group didn't know them at all. There were so many singers here, and even Chen Jiahua, who was familiar with them, would not say hello to all of them. They would just chat with their acquaintances and blend in with the Taiwanese singers.

A few minutes later, singer Azar, who sang "It Doesn't Matter", entered the venue. He took the first look at Daolang, and then found two mainland singers to talk to.

Daolang, who had always been reserved, also raised his eyes, but ignored them. Phoenix Legend and Gu Miaomiao looked at them, with the fire of gossip shining in their eyes.

It is an open secret in the music industry that the two have conflicts. When Daolang became popular last year, Azar got angry about "Punishment of Impulse".

However, Daolang is not someone to be bullied right now. Azar is on good terms with Beijing singers, and he has the stars behind him.

Wei Xixi, the deputy director of the Fanxing music department and the producer of Daolang's single, spoke directly.

"It doesn't matter if you say other people's songs have no connotation, why don't you look at yourself first? Why do I smell so much sourness..."

Wei Xixi is Cao Xuan's royal producer. He has won the Taiwan Provincial Golden Melody Award and has won numerous awards in the Mainland. He has contributed to most of Cao Xuan's albums.

In terms of status in the music industry, Zhang Yadong would not dare to say that he can surpass Wei Xixi now. If it weren't for Lao Wei not composing much music, there would be no suspense about being the number one music producer in the Mainland.

In terms of qualifications, Wei also worked for major record companies in his early years, and Azar was still living in a basement at that time.

In terms of achievements, even if Lao Wei cannot compare with the founders of the sect like Li Zongsheng, he is not far behind. At least the albums produced by Li Zongsheng have not won Grammys.

Although many people say that Wei Xixi is hugging Cao Xuan's lap, others can't hug her even if they want to. The real results are here. There are only a few people in the music industry who can criticize anyone they want.

Azar's "It Doesn't Matter" was a hit, but he wasn't qualified enough to challenge Wei Xixi. He was scolded and didn't dare to say a word, so he just gave up.

Because of this incident, all the little thoughts that Dao Lang, Phoenix Legend and others had about Xiao Hong disappeared instantly.

I dare not say that I have been completely devoted to the company since then, but at least I will not have any second thoughts in a short period of time...

Afterwards, amid cheers again, the Hong Kong girl group Twins, who also became popular this year with "Next Stop Queen", entered the stage.

Soon after, Teacher Chen, Zhang Yunu and Chef Xie also arrived at the scene.

"Didn't you say that the guy has a bad relationship with the boss? Why are you here?"

Quietly pointing at Chef Xie, Gu Miaomiao couldn't help but ask. Zeng Yi scratched his head: "I guess it's just what others say. I didn't say that Nan Ren and Bei Cao were mortal enemies before. I asked Teacher Wei and he said they have a good relationship."

"Perhaps the relationship is indeed not good, but given the current status of the boss, there is no need to hold on to small grievances. Finding an opportunity to resolve them is a mature approach."
