380 The Four Queens of Japan and South Korea Mila and "When the Wind Rises Again"(1/3)
After Cao Xuan arrived, the people who came after him were all big names or old artists with more seniority than him. Cao Xuan himself often stood up to greet them.
These people basically came here to show their face for him. If it weren't for Cao Xuan, even this rare Chinese music event might not have invited all of them.
"Teacher Zong Sheng."
"Sister Fei, your seat is over there."
"Teacher Song, welcome."
"Principal Tan, thank you for your support."
"..."
The older generation of big names in the music scene from Taiwan, the Mainland, Hong Kong, and both sides of the Taiwan Strait were all present. Many guests looked on and silently breathed air-conditioning. This was really a big deal.
And that’s all for being generous, the key is that it’s hard to hire many people.
Especially Wang Fei, she is not difficult to invite, but the key point is that today's occasion is embarrassing.
Chef Xie, the ex-boyfriend, and Zhang Yunu, the rumored love triangle, were both present. The media pointed out that trivial matter every day and hyped it up. Queen Queen was able to come despite the turmoil, which shows that it gave Cao Xuan more face.
Cao Xuan was also very grateful. For this reason, even his good friend Na Tianhou, an old enemy who came with Wang Fei, rarely gave him a smile and a polite hello.
"Teacher Na, long time no see."
"Long time no see, Teacher Cao. I heard that you voted for me during the judging panel. I'm very grateful."
Ah Feng lowered his head and called out Brother Xuan. Seeing today's scene, if Queen Na Tian chooses to have a fight with Cao Xuan, she won't take that long to show her goodwill by lowering her posture.
"This is what the judges should do. There is no need to thank you."
Cao Xuan frowned slightly. He still had certain principles in doing things. Since he was a judge, although he might have some emotional biases, he was generally fair.
Queen Na is still one of the top female singers in the mainland. Last year's album performance was also very impressive in the mainland market. She is one of the best-performing female singers. Coupled with other conditions, she has the highest comprehensive index among the finalists.
Even if Cao Xuan doesn't like the other party, seeing that the other party has an absolute advantage over the other finalists, he will not deliberately suppress him for some personal grudges.
Otherwise, it will appear that he is too stingy, spends every penny in everything he does, and has no tolerance for others.
Although Cao Xuan is sometimes petty, being petty has its own time and place.
In a more formal place like this, which also involves fairness, Cao Xuan would not ruin his accumulated reputation and prestige just for the sake of a moment of anger.
Besides, he really doesn't pay much attention to Queen Na Tian now. As he said, the two have nothing to do with each other. She walks her Yangguan Road and I walk my single-plank bridge.
He won't deliberately suppress him, but the other party shouldn't expect to get any benefits from him...
However, Queen Na made Cao Xuan a little unhappy because the internal voting information was leaked.
It is difficult to eliminate the fact that the nominees know in advance that they will win. Unless the CCTV-MTV Music Festival turns into a Grammy, everyone wants to win an award, and if there is a nomination, they will be willing to come and support it.
Therefore, the award itself is not authoritative, and the shortlisted awards are not very attractive to star singers, so we can only use the award as a temptation, send letters to everyone in advance, and invite people.
Today, Cao Xuan is in charge, inviting heroes from all walks of life. In fact, there is no need to reveal trust and attract people, but I still didn't expect that someone would become a "traitor".
The most exaggerated thing is that even who voted was leaked. It can be seen that some judges or internal personnel have no concept of confidentiality at all, or they simply use their votes or information to exchange favors...
Cao Xuan was in a good mood today. This time he served as the vice chairman of the organizing committee and made a lot of efforts.
Although the music festival is still suspected of being divided into pigs, due to his insistence, this year's awards have been reduced a lot compared to previous years, and they are more valuable and fair.
Cao Xuan was originally very proud, thinking that he had brought the music festival back to the right track, and that he might not be able to win a Mainland Golden Melody Award in two years.
As a result, Queen Na was a sap today. All the details of the internal voting were leaked, and there was no talk of fairness and authority.
Cao Xuan suddenly felt quite boring.
The boat of the music festival has become skewed, and it involves many things, and I can't get it back on my own. If I want to be China's Grammy, I still have to pull the strings and do it myself.
Cao Xuan felt a little embarrassed and asked the two of them to sit down a little away from Chef Xie.
The next few guests were very impressive, and the screams outside the venue were no less than those of Cao Xuan just now.
All four heavenly kings are present!
The moment I saw the four figures appear, the cool air in the venue was so cool that the guests felt a little warm inside, and the environmentally friendly girl had to jump after seeing it.
Again, the beginning of the 21st century is the end of the peak of the Four Heavenly Kings.
The older generation has gone through time and their popularity has declined. Although the new generation Xiao Zhou and others are gradually catching up in popularity, they do not have enough popularity and influence.
Therefore, the status of the Four Heavenly Kings in the music world is still very high at this stage. Except for Cao Xuan, almost no one can fully compare with them.
Of course, the Four Heavenly Kings are all the same, and the other guests are not vegetarians. The main reason for such a big reaction is that three of them came at once. It is not unprecedented, but it is rare.
In 1992, when the Four Heavenly Kings first became famous, they often shared the stage, forming a combination effect and boosting each other's popularity.
But after 1995, the four of them emerged and dominated the music scene, and then entered a stage of all-out competition with each other.
Regardless of the team behind the agent, the fans, or the media, everyone will be more concerned about each other's rankings, and there was a fierce fight at one point.
So from this time on, except for many important award ceremonies, it was difficult to gather the four of them at the same time. By the end of the 1990s, the two kings Zhang and Li quit music awards, and King Guo moved to film and television. The four of them became more and more invisible.
king.
Since entering the 21st century, the number of four people who have appeared together, not to mention on the same stage, can be counted on one hand. They are basically major events or important moments in Hong Kong.
The most recent time the four of them shared the stage was at this year's Academy Awards ceremony to commemorate Leslie Cheung, when the four kings sang "The Love of the Year" on the same stage.
This time, Cao Xuan invited him over again.
Prior to this, in order to ensure surprises, the list of the Four Heavenly Kings had not been announced. The organizing committee stated that some people would be present, but did not say how many specifically.
So when the four heavenly kings arrived, the scene exploded.
Cao Xuan went over to greet him. Guo and Liu had both met before, and Li Tianwang had also interacted with him during the Spring Festival Gala. However, this was the first time for Zhang Tianwang to meet him.
To be honest, Cao Xuan was also nervous about inviting the Four Heavenly Kings this time.
King Liu agreed most readily, and King Guo did not hesitate. King Li agreed to join in after hearing Cao Xuan's ideas and hearing that the other two people were coming.
Only Zhang Tianwang had never dealt with him before, so it was not easy to ask for this matter rashly. I called him, and the other party said he would consider it. Fortunately, there was another strong supporter who could help, and he finally persuaded me.
Although his qualifications and age are almost the same, Cao Xuan's achievements are even better.
Facing the Four Heavenly Kings, Cao Xuan had no stage fright. The five of them stood together and talked and laughed, with Cao Xuan even vaguely at the center.
The older generation of big shots were okay, but the new generation of artists looked at Cao Xuan with envy and yearning in their eyes.
This is what a man should do!
Of course, there are also a few people who may think that he can replace them, but they only dare to think in their hearts and don't have the courage to say it out.
Ignoring the Emperor Gaozu of Han and the Overlord of Chu, after the four heavenly kings entered the venue, all the visible guests had already entered the venue and the rest were surprise guests.
CCTV broadcast live, temporarily closed the audience to the venue, Cao Shihuang was good at dancing, running around and socializing with all parties.
Reminiscing about the past with some seniors here, chatting energetically with the Four Heavenly Kings, Wang Fei, and Li Zongsheng over there about the development of the industry. At the same time, I did not forget to comfort and meet the younger brothers and sisters. When the time comes, I will take them to meet the elders.
Dude, you look familiar.
After finishing talking to the artists, Cao Xuan talked to some expert judges and listened to the teachings of the leaders who came to sit down.
To be honest, I am really tired, but at the same time it is also very refreshing.
Even at the time of the Golden Melody Awards and the Grammy Awards, he only became one of the centerpieces after winning the award. Unlike now, no matter whether he won the award or not, Cao Xuan is the centerpiece of the scene and no one can ignore it.
Around October 1997, Cao Xuan made his debut in the music scene. Today is also October. After six years, he finally made the entire Chinese music world look up to him.
The original Xiao Cao/Xuan Zai/A Xuan are now [Brother Xuan] who are respected by all the new generation singers in the Chinese music scene across the Taiwan Straits and Taiwan.
Cao Daguan's heart was filled with excitement, and the little depression he had felt before was gone. He wished he could go on stage and sing a song "Exaggerated" with all his heart.
"That year, when I was 22, the Chinese music scene
Standing like a slave
Nowadays, we are overcoming thorns and thorns, and the road is ragged.
Become a great entertainer(ga)
…”
However, Cao Daguan has a deep mind, and no matter how proud he is, he remains calm, modest and cautious on the surface.
Only Ninomiya, who knew him well, could vaguely sense some of his thoughts and couldn't help but snicker.
You deserve it, you are asked to pretend to be a big-tailed wolf, and you can only secretly feel happy if you pretend to be cool.
If Cao Xuan knew what she was thinking, he would definitely defend himself. Secret feeling is the real feeling, and that quiet sense of self-fulfillment is the ultimate soul feeling.
If the pleasure is felt on the face, the level will be low, the style will not be in place, and the pleasure will be compromised.
………
Audiences entered the venue one after another, and the large curtain was erected. From time to time, the artist guest area was broadcast. The artists who were caught on camera smiled and greeted the audience, soothing everyone's waiting mood.
The audience entered the venue at 5:30. In more than an hour, before the show started at 7:00, more than 90% of the audience were basically there, with a few people entering here and there.
However, there was no need to wait for the prescribed time. At exactly what time the CCTV live broadcast signal was turned on, fireworks exploded above the work body, and two hosts appeared on the stage.
Zhu Jun, the first brother of CCTV, and Zhou Tao, the most popular successor to the first sister after Ni Ping retired.
In the past, the CCTV-MTV music festival, except for the first one, did not have such high hosting standards, and it was almost half the Spring Festival Gala.
