423 Grammy Trip
Because of some well-known reasons, China has been closed for hundreds of years, and in the past hundred years, it has lagged behind the Western world in terms of economic and cultural development.
In the field of entertainment, film, television and music have been criticized for their lack of achievements in the world.
The Oscars and Grammys can be said to be the eternal pain points of all people in the entertainment industry.
But now, Wei Xun and Lin Zi have broken the record of zero awards for Chinese musicians at the Grammys, and this breakthrough is enough to make all musicians in the industry happy and excited.
Therefore, when the film media is still immersed in the carnival of Wei Xun's "I Am Not the God of Medicine" box office exceeding 3 billion records, the media in the music industry have locked in this Grammy trip of Wei Xun and Lin Zi.
The largest, most professional and authoritative periodicals and magazines in the Chinese music circle [The Sound of Music] specially set up a shooting and interview team to accompany Wei Xun and Lin Zi to the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
At that time, this filming team will broadcast the whole process of Wei Xun and Lin Zi's Grammy itinerary.
And because this year's Grammys have unprecedented nominations from Chinese people, Jutong Video bought the exclusive live broadcast rights of the Grammys in Huaxia, and two days later, Chinese people can watch the live broadcast of the Grammy Awards on Jutong Video.
On the day Wei Xun and Lin Zi flew to the United States, the whole network paid attention.
Hundreds of media reporters and countless netizens saw them off at the airport, and Wei Xun wore a low-key black down jacket with a relaxed and casual expression, and it seemed that he was not too nervous about the next Grammy trip.
But in fact, netizens are not as calm as him.
"The Grammys have relied on sales and popularity to win awards in recent years, so it seems that Lin Zi is still very promising. ”
"It's the first time I've seen Chinese people on the top stage of Omi Music, it's really, it's not easy, I hope Lin Zi and Wei Xun can win the award smoothly. ”
"Regardless of whether they win the award or not, they are destined to be written into the history of the Chinese music industry. ”
"Remember to watch the live broadcast the day after tomorrow, Jutong Video bought out the exclusive live broadcast of the Grammys. ”
In the heated discussion of domestic media and netizens, Wei Xun and Lin Zi boarded the plane to the United States together.
On the plane, Lin Zi's expression was not as relaxed as Wei Xun's.
She looked at Wei Xun with a nervous and anxious tone that she couldn't even detect: "When you wrote me the song "Shake It Off" last year and asked me to go to the overseas market, I never thought that I could really record tens of millions of single sales and even get a Grammy pass. But the strange thing is that my grades are getting better and better, but on the contrary, I am more and more suffering from gains and losses, and from the moment I got on the plane, my heart beat hard. ”
As a top diva in China, what hasn't Lin Zi experienced?
But next she's going to be a Grammy!
Can you not be nervous?
"Only when people are getting stronger and stronger will they understand their own shortcomings, you broke Huaxia's record of zero nominations in the Grammys, and before you got on the plane, countless fans were cheering for you. So, the moment you get on a plane and walk out of this country, you are no longer just yourself, you represent the image of this country. ”
Wei Xun turned his head and said with a smile: "Maybe Huaxia's current entertainment background is not as good as theirs, but it doesn't matter, you have to turn yourself into a business card, so that the world can see and understand Huaxia." If you think about it this way, is it the sense of responsibility on your shoulders that is greater than the tension in your heart. ”
Lin Zi glanced at Wei Xun in surprise when he heard this.
This man, who is many years younger than him, is not only talented and capable, but also looks at the way he looks at problems, which is very admirable.
"Mr. Wei is right, in fact, we, the industry insiders, hope to see the musicians of our country on the Grammy stage one day. ”
On the seat next to her, a middle-aged woman with short hair and a capable appearance said with a smile: "So on your Grammy trip, our colleagues in our company are all squeezing their heads to come along, and everyone says that they want to witness our own honor together." So the two, please be calm, whether you win or not, standing on the red carpet of the Grammys, it is already a victory. ”
This middle-aged woman's name is Chen Tong, and she is the deputy editor-in-chief of [The Sound of Music], who is responsible for leading the entourage of Wei Xun and Lin Zi to fight for the Grammys.
"Then according to what you say, I'm going to have to dress up and go to the red carpet. Lin Zi teased: "In this way, there seems to be no difference between me and Ling Wei. ”
Wei Xun and Chen Tong also laughed out loud when they heard this, Ling Wei once walked the red carpet of the Grammys, but it was through brand sponsors, there were no works around, to put it bluntly, it was rubbing the red carpet.
and Lin Zi took the nomination, which is two natures.
In order to cut the material, the filming staff of the [Sound of Music] group began to capture after getting on the plane, and Lin Zi also adjusted his mentality and emotions to cooperate with other people's work.
After a long voyage, the group flew from China to Los Angeles on the other side of the ocean.
According to the itinerary, they will next rush to a hotel near the Staples Center, which is arranged by the Grammy organizing committee to live for the musicians nominated for the awards.
However, when Wei Xun, Lin Zi and others rented a car and came to this hotel, they were told that the hotel was full.
"How can it be full?"
Chen Tong was a little surprised when he heard this, and asked the blonde girl at the front desk of the hotel: "We are the team of singer Lin Zi, who has been nominated for a Grammy, and the Grammy organizing committee has promised to prepare a room for us in advance." ”
"Lin Zi?"
The blonde front desk girl rolled her eyes very indecently: "I haven't heard of it, you can go to the organizing committee to negotiate." ”
This is quite unreasonable.
Chen Tong's face was pale, but people obviously ignored her, and she didn't bother to continue to entangle, so she turned around and walked out of the hotel.
Wei Xun soon heard about it as well.
The flight from Huaxia to the United States, the time difference is twelve hours later, and everyone is tired after flying for so long.
Including Lin Zi and Chen Tong, as well as the action personnel of [The Sound of Music], their expressions became anxious when they heard that there was no room left.
Besides, when I got on the plane, the media greeted netizens one after another, but as soon as I arrived in Los Angeles, I was closed to others, and no one could accept it.
Seeing that Chen Tong and the others were angry and wanted to negotiate with the Grammys, Wei Xun motioned for her to stop first and asked, "Editor-in-chief Chen, you know a lot about this, there are rules that say that you must live in this hotel?"
"There is no such rule. ”
Chen Tong said with some embarrassment: "But if we don't live in this hotel, we will have to stay at our own expense, which is too expensive." And I think it's clearly ......"
It is clear that they have been harassed and discriminated against.
As for the reason, I think that any Chinese who has ever been abroad has experienced that Chinese people will inevitably be discriminated against, difficult, and malicious in the international community.
"Okay, it's important to find a place to live first, everyone needs to rest, and the matter of negotiating with the organizing committee will be talked about later. ”
Chen Tong and the others were very angry, but Wei Xun was okay, he said with a smile: "Isn't it just to stay in a hotel at your own expense, what a big deal, I remember that we passed by a seven-star hotel just now, so let's go to that one, and I'll pay for it." ”
