Chapter two hundred and ninety-ninth nomination that falls below the glasses
Amid controversy, the shortlist for the 17th Golden Melody Awards was announced on the 5th. Tao Zhe and Hu Defu were shortlisted for 6 categories. It can be said that they have unlimited glory. The most shocking thing is that Jay Chou was not favored by the judges. Wu Kequn is called a dark horse.
She competed with the "Song God" Jacky Cheung for the singing title; last year's hit singer Stefanie Sun, the Taiwanese singing king Wang Shixian, and the singer Sun Shumei were all shortlisted again to compete for the title.
For the much-anticipated Best Mandarin Male Singer Award, in addition to Tao Zhe, there are also frequent nominees Lin Zhixuan, Jacky Cheung whose singing skills are unquestionable, Wu Kequn who is regarded as a dark horse, as well as Wu Defu and Wang Leehom. This is also Wang Leehom's only shortlisted award, which quite surprised the outside world.
Accident.
As for this award, which was originally very competitive, Wang Zhengfei and Jay Chou both failed and were not shortlisted at all. This is more surprising than not winning. If they did not win, they would actually be considered upsets, but if they are consecutive
If there are no finalists, this can no longer be explained by being an upset.
The biggest surprise this year is the little king Jay Chou. Jay Chou's album "Chopin in November" released last year was a huge hit, second only to Wang Zhengfei's "Fireworks Easily Cold". This made him very confident about being nominated. The day before yesterday, he especially put aside his rush to catch up.
The film "The City Is Full of Gold" made a special trip back to Taiwan from Yanjing. It is nominally for the recording of a new album to be released in August. In fact, it is waiting for the announcement of the nomination list and is preparing to receive congratulations from all parties. Wang Zhengfei also privately approved it with Jay Chou.
Phone call, congratulations to him for being shortlisted.
Although the two are competitors at the Golden Melody Awards, they are actually a pair of very good friends in private. They basically spend time together to play together.
Unexpectedly, Jay Chou was not favored by the judges this year. Among the 31 awards, he was completely eliminated in the individual category. Only Fang Wenshan, the lyricist of his song "Hair Like Snow", was nominated for "Best Lyricist", and another song "Best Lyricist" was nominated.
Hong Jingyao, the arranger of "Blue Storm", was nominated for the "Best Arranger". On the contrary, Jay Chou was appreciated by the judges for screwing others, and his "Dreaming Fish", which he composed for Jiang Hui, was nominated for the "Best Arranger".
"Jiatai-language pop music album" and "Best Song of the Year". As for his old girlfriend Jolin Tsai, I don't know if it was affected by the switch to a record company, but she didn't get any of the nominations.
As for Wang Zhengfei's nomination, it's not really expected or not. The reporters had originally expected that either he would not be shortlisted at all, or that he would be nominated in large numbers and sweep all the major awards. However, he was only shortlisted.
There are three awards: Best Composer, Best Lyricist, and Best Album Producer. These three awards cannot be considered important, but they cannot be said to be unimportant. However, none of the awards that Wang Zhengfei values most is shortlisted.
The only one of these three awards that is relatively important is the Best Album Producer Award. This award is the most important award for most creative musicians, such as Jay Chou, Wang Leehom, and JJ Lin. In fact, they value this award.
There are more awards than awards such as Best Singer that the outside world pays more attention to. Compared with the King of Singers and Queens of Singers, this award attracts more attention from them.
Wang Zhengfei also attaches great importance to this award. Compared with other awards, deep down in his heart, he still agrees with the award for Best Album Producer. This is a test of the entire album. Only the entire album is good.
May be shortlisted.
It also tests the ability of a music producer, and Wang Zhengfei is now working hard to become a producer.
Although the market response for "Perfect Day" by Stefanie Sun, who is the "temperament type" in this year's list of best female singers, is not as good as expected, she has a chance to compete for the throne of the cicada diva. She and Cai Jianya's "Sing Chew Gang" will face off against the "Malaysian style"
"The competition between Leung Jingru and Dai Penni was fierce; Chen Qizhen was nominated for many awards. Although Wang Peirong was unhappy with the Rolling Stones, the judges gave her justice. It was the first time that Weiqi Fan was shortlisted for the Newcomer Award. It took 5 years for her to have good news again.
Tao Zhe's music quality is positive in the Golden Melody Award shortlist. This time, his solo and album "Peace and Prosperity" received a total of 6 nominations, tied with the master-level Hu Defu as the biggest winner, followed by Wu Bai and Chen Qizhen with 5 nominations each. Tao Zhe, Hu Defu, Chen Qizhen
There will be a battle with Dai Penny in multiple awards such as album and production.
In general, winning the Golden Melody Award this time is beyond almost everyone's imagination. The most exciting results I thought of before were not as exciting as this one.
Wang Zhengfei, who was previously considered the most popular but also the most unpopular, was only shortlisted for three awards. Although it was much better than the 0 finalists, it undoubtedly caused considerable dissatisfaction among Wang Zhengfei's fans.
Regarding the fact that he was not shortlisted for several categories, Wang Zhengfei is actually very calm, because compared to the worst case scenario, he has nothing to say about being shortlisted for three. Anyway, this award is biased towards Taiwanese people, and he knows this well.
, even though it is known as the top singing award in the Chinese music industry, there are still some regional surnames.
But what he couldn't accept the most was that Jay Chou was one of the finalists this time. He couldn't accept it at all. Jay Chou's last album was the second only to him, "Three Kingdoms". Such results are everywhere.
The only one, but he couldn't be shortlisted. Isn't this Chi Guoguo's revenge?
This time the Golden Melody Awards was organized by Apple News, which had a big conflict with Jay Chou last year because of the paparazzi issue. As we all know, Jay Chou hates paparazzi and even wrote a song to satirize paparazzi.
At that time, I received a lot of praise from artists in the industry, but I didn't expect that retribution would come so soon, and this Apple News was obviously an attempt to avenge public and private revenge.
In addition, Jay Chou had no success last year, which made Wang Zhengfei wonder where the so-called fairness of the Golden Melody Awards lies. Although it does not necessarily mean that you will be nominated for a big hit, and the Golden Melody Awards often play the game of upsets, but this
There must be a limit when playing this kind of game. You can't just play it without any limit. This is something Wang Zhengfei cannot accept no matter what.
The host of the press conference also "comforted" Jay Chou and said: "You have won the Taiwanese Film Newcomer Award. You have distributed the award to others. Don't be angry."
What kind of theory is this? Movies are movies and music is music. They are two different things. They can all be linked together. This is an extremely absurd theory. According to this theory, Wang Zhengfei will not get a few shortlists this time.
Isn't that what he deserves? Who allowed him to win nine awards at the Academy Awards? It's really outrageous and inexplicable.
Because he had doubts about this fair person, Wang Zhengfei naturally lost interest. He was not as enthusiastic as when he participated in the Golden Bell Awards, Golden Horse Awards, and Academy Awards. At that time, he went because he was not aware of the awards, but for
He has no interest at all in this kind of award that is completely devoid of justice.
While the outside world is still making a fuss about the shortlist for the Golden Melody Award, Wang Zhengfei's own attention has shifted to other places, that is, "Ip Man" that Ning Hao has been preparing for several months is finally ready to start filming.
Although the story of "Ip Man" this time mainly takes place in Foshan, it actually couldn't be set in Foshan during the filming because the buildings in Foshan from the 1930s and 1940s have been demolished and are not suitable for filming.
Well, this is also a very regrettable place, and the movie could not be filmed where the story takes place.
Finally, after thinking for a long time and calling Wang Zhengfei to consult, Ning Hao finally chose the old city where Wang Zhengfei shot "Snow Leopard".
Part of the architectural style of the 1960s was completed here, and part of it was filmed at the Shanghai Songjiang Film and Television Base. In this way, everything is perfect.
However, the first press conference for the filming was still held in the Ip Man Hall of the ancestral temple in Foshan.
Wang Zhengfei is the chief screenwriter and one of the planners of this drama, so he had to be present. Since he flew here from the studio in Shanghai, when he arrived at the press conference, the press conference had already started for some time. Seeing Wang Zhengfei
As soon as he entered the venue, countless reporters raised their cameras and started filming Wang Zhengfei.
"Well, here comes Wang Zhengfei, our screenwriter Wang Zhengfei. Now Wang Zhengfei came from the set very hard. Let's welcome Wang Zhengfei to our seat!" said the host at the scene.
Wang Zhengfei looked at the seat specially reserved for him. It was very close to the middle, next to the two most important figures, Ning Hao and Donnie Yen. Generally speaking, for this kind of press conference, the closer the seat is to the middle, the better.
For this drama, your status is more important. As a director, Ning Hao naturally does not have to sit in the middle. This is his right as a director. As the male lead and a veteran first-line star, Donnie Yen sits in the middle.
In fact, there is nothing surprising, but Wang Zhengfei is only a screenwriter in name. Basically, in theory, he sits in a corner position. Unless a reporter asks, he will attract attention.
But now the position has been moved directly to the middle, and other people don't seem to have any objections, which shows what Wang Zhengfei's status is in the minds of everyone.
