Chapter 435 Receiving and Receiving Awards

After the performance, Xiao Yao immediately returned to the dressing room backstage and quickly changed back into his original formal suit. Coming out of the back door of the backstage, he quietly returned to his seat in the audience from the side after a half-circle.

After the folk awards, the next awards are the rap awards. When Xiao Yao returned, the best rap song had already been announced, and the award for the best rap album was about to be presented on the stage.

In Xiao Yao's music works last year, the two songs "It's Now" sung by himself and "Anchor" sung to Chen Chen and Chen Beila both contain rap, but they are not pure rap songs, and they are not like the "Yanjing Native" that was given to Chen Chen the year before last has the addition of traditional folk music, so these two songs were not classified as rap songs by the jury, "It's Now" was classified as a pop song, and "Anchor" was classified as an electronic music song, and both were nominated accordingly, Xiao Yao and Chen Chen, Chen Beila was not nominated for this category.

Neither Xiao Yao nor Chen Chen were nominated, and the rest of Qi Jia's studio had no chance to compete for the award in this category. This category is the only category award that has not been nominated for singers under Qijia Studio this year, and the things on stage have nothing to do with the people of Qijia Studio for the time being, so several people in Qijia Studio will inevitably pay much less attention to the stage.

"Huh, why did you switch places with your father?" After returning to his seat, Xiao Yao was a little surprised to find that the person sitting next to him had changed from Xiao Siqi to Ye Jiaying, turned his head and asked in a low voice.

"I'll talk to you instead. Ye Jiaying tilted her head sideways, covered her mouth with her palm and whispered.

"What are you talking about?" Xiao Yao guessed.

"Yes, how did you write such a song?" Ye Jiaying whispered, "The lyrics are too heart-wrenching, right?"

After Xiao Yao had his own recording studio in Shencheng, Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying were now almost in a state of complete letting go of Xiao Yao's work, and they didn't know in advance that Xiao Yao would sing such a heart-piercing song at the award ceremony.

"We went to the bar to celebrate her birthday at the beginning of December, and there were a couple of women in their thirties at the table next to us. Xiao Yao smiled, "That song is about a thirty-year-old woman, you are in your forties, and your family and career are very good, you are so touched when you listen to it?"

"I thought you wrote it specifically for Yin Xi and wanted to use this song to urge Yin Xi to get married!" Ye Jiaying whispered.

When I listened to this song just now, Ye Jiaying felt that Xiao Yao's song seemed to be written for a single woman around thirty years old. Speaking of the single women around the age of thirty who can let him write songs specifically for Xiao Yao, Ye Jiaying's first thought is Yin Xi.

Among the women who have a better relationship with Xiao Yao, Fang Yi, Pei Minyi, Fan Linxuan, Gong Chen, and Xu Yuan are all only in their early twenties, even the older Cheng Xi is still several years away from thirty, Sun Tingting and Zhu Zitong, who are basically the same age as Xiao Yao, naturally don't have to think about it, and there are only a few people who can catch up with the thirty-year-old, Yin Xi, Liang Xueying, Hong Xiuyan and Su Chengying. Among these women in their thirties, the only one who has the best relationship with Xiao Yao and has always maintained close contact with Xiao Yao is Yin Xi, who has always regarded herself as Xiao Yao's sister and co-founded the brand.

"Sister Xi is doing well, why should I urge Sister Xi to get married?" Xiao Yao said with a smile.

"Then why do you want to sing this song in this kind of scene?" Ye Jiaying said, "Is there no other choice?"

"Is there a problem with this song?" Xiao Yao turned his head to look at Ye Jiaying and said.

"Of course I don't think there's anything wrong with your song, but some of the lyrics are still quite harsh to some people. With so many media present today, there will definitely be a lot of reports about your performance today, and I'm afraid that someone will make a fuss about this song and attack you!" Ye Jiaying said.

"The song is always to be sent after all," Xiao Yao said with a smile, "With my current popularity, there is not much difference between the hair at the award ceremony and the quiet hair, and the black will still be black after all." Isn't there a saying that if no one is black, it means that you are not popular?"

In his previous life, after Zhao Lei sang this song on "Singer", it caused many people's dissatisfaction and attacks. Under the leadership of many marketing accounts, there are many voices on the Internet saying that Zhao Lei does not respect women, and that he is a "male dick" and a "straight man". When he saw those remarks in his previous life, Xiao Yao was quite shocked and angry, so he deliberately sang this song at the awards ceremony, just to see if the world is like in his previous life, and whether this song will also arouse the criticism of many "feminist" people. Of course, with his current status, no one will say that he is a "dick", but the word "straight male cancer" is shared in both worlds.

"You've always been a master who doesn't think it's a big deal, so it's best not to get away with it. From Xiao Yao's attitude, Ye Jiaying felt that Xiao Yao didn't know that this song might cause trouble, and it was obviously deliberate, so she could only roll her eyes helplessly.

"At most, I might lose some of my fans? If you really want to boycott me because of this song, that's not my real fan. Xiao Yao smiled indifferently, "Moreover, I think that the majority of people who can still understand this song will not affect me too much." ”

"I hope so!" Ye Jiaying shook her head and turned her gaze back to the stage.

When Ye Jiaying and Xiao Yao were chatting secretly, the best rap album award on the stage had been awarded, and the winners had finished their acceptance speeches, and the host began to introduce the next group of award presenters and the next award category to be awarded. The next awards to be presented are the awards for Best Rock Song and Best Rock Album, Xiao Yao was nominated for Best Rock Song, and also received two nominations, so the two returned their attention to the stage.

After the two presenters took the stage, they also presented the award for the best rock song first, and put the best rock album behind. Among the best rock songs, Xiao Yao's "Descendants of the Dragon" and "No Place for Shame" were both nominated. These two songs are also only live versions, and no MV has been filmed, so when the clips of the nominated songs are played, the clips of Xiao Yao's performance on "Singer" are also played on the big screen.

Because of the appearance of the members of the band "Immortals" in "No Place for Themselves", and the clip played happened to contain the picture of them singing harmony for Xiao Yao in Chinese, when this section came out, the audience reacted the strongest, and received the highest applause and screams. But when the final award was announced, the award-winning song read by the award presenters was Xiao Yao's "Descendants of the Dragon".

"This is taking advantage of the main theme, right?" Xiao Yao couldn't help but laugh at himself in his heart as he got up and walked onto the stage to receive the award.

Although "Descendants of the Dragon" is also a very classic song, this song was not originally a rock song, but because he was going to participate in the "Singer" competition, for the sake of the atmosphere and effect of the scene, Xiao Yao chose the rock adaptation. In Xiao Yao's heart, "No Place for Self-Containment", one of the rock milestones in his previous life, is more worthy of this award for best rock song than "Descendants of the Dragon".

But there is no way around it. The reason why the world's "Golden Disc" Award can overtake other awards, big and small, and become the most authoritative music award in China is definitely indispensable to the support of the government. Therefore, in the awards, it is inevitable that this kind of song that promotes the national spirit will take some advantage.

If you really want to talk about it, the loss of the best electronic song "The Great Wall" to "Faded" at last year's "Golden Disc" Awards is a rather surprising result. At that time, some people said that the jury was to reflect the internationality of the electronic music category, and some gossip media speculated that this was because the "Golden Disc" award jury was dissatisfied with Xiao Yao's absence from the award ceremony for two consecutive years, so it deliberately let Xiao Yao win one less award. Although both songs were written by Xiao Yao, "Faded" was not sung by him, and according to the rules of the "Golden Disc" award, the trophy could not be given to him.

Because he didn't really agree with the results of the award, Xiao Yao didn't make any jokes when he came to the stage to accept the award this time, and his acceptance speech was very simple, just saying the word "thank you", which seemed to remind people of the scene when Xiao Siqi helped Xiao Yao receive the trophy the year before last.

Xiao Yao is not too familiar with the two award presenters who presented the rock awards, he just shook hands when he came on stage, and politely said thank you twice, but there was no interaction in addition, and the acceptance speech was just a simple thank you, so this time to receive the award, Xiao Yao was very different from the previous time, not only did not overtime, but saved a lot of time for the entire award ceremony.

After receiving the award, Xiao Yao left the stage from the front and returned to his seat with the trophy, while the two award presenters continued to present the award for the best rock album in the future.

After the award of the best rock album, the awards ceremony entered the performance time. This time, a singer who had just been nominated for Best Rock Song performed the rock song for which he was nominated. Although most celebrities and audiences want to see Xiao Yao singing "Descendants of the Dragon" live with the dragon qin on his back, they also understand that the awards ceremony cannot be a concert for a certain singer. For the rock singer's performance, the audience at the scene still gave a good response to the face.

After the rock category, the electronic music category was next. Among the best electronic music songs, Xiao Yao's "SingMeToSleep" was not nominated this year because of its similar style to "Faded", which won an award, but the song "Anchor" was nominated, but because Xiao Yao is not a singer, it was not him who was nominated, but Chen Chen and Chen Bella.

"Guo Qi has actually become an award presenter at the music awards ceremony!" Xiao Yao couldn't help but smile and sigh when he saw the award presenters who appeared.

Electronic music songs are a relatively new category, and there are no veterans in this area in Huaxia, so the organizers of these two awards invited a pair of cross-border star groups from the non-music industry. The two award presenters, one is the well-known actress Su Chengying, and the other is basketball star Guo Qi. It is not the first time that Su Chengying has appeared as an award presenter at the music awards ceremony, but it is very rare for Guo Qi, as an athlete, to appear here.

"The winner of the best electronic music song of this year's "Golden Disc" Award is ~ "Anchor"! Singers, Chen Chen, Chen Bella!" After playing the clip of the nominated song, Su Chengying opened the card with the award result written on it and read it along.

"Please come up to the stage to receive the award!" Guo Qi bent over the microphone and continued.

In the applause of the audience, Xiao Yao got up again and walked to the stage.

"It's Chen Chen and Chen Bella who won the awards, Xiao Yao, why are you coming up?" Xiao Yao was still on his way to the stage, and Guo Qi on the stage couldn't help but laugh and joked, "You haven't won enough awards?"

"As a person with aspirations, how can it be enough to win an award?" Xiao Yao walked onto the stage, stood in front of the microphone and said with a smile, "But this award is not mine, I am entrusted by others to receive the award on behalf of others." ”

"It's a pity that neither Chen Chen nor Chen Bella can go to the scene to receive the award, so I will receive this award on my behalf. Rest assured, I'll definitely get the trophy into their hands. Xiao Yao continued.

For singers, the "Golden Disc" award is a very rare opportunity to show their faces. Except for a top king singer like Xiao Siqi or a strange person like Xiao Yao, most people can't ask for such an opportunity, but Chen Chen, who is not even a first-line singer, and Chen Bella, who can only be regarded as an Internet singer, did not come tonight. Chen Chen couldn't get out of the way because there happened to be a more important performance in the past two days, and Chen Beila refused the organizer's invitation to attend on the grounds of physical discomfort.

In the case of being unable to attend, the two unanimously decided that if the song won the award, they would let Xiao Yao, who would rarely attend this year, help them receive the award. Their reasoning is that as the creator of the song, there is no one more suitable than him.

Taking the trophy from Su Chengying's hand, Xiao Yao turned to face the audience and began to say the acceptance speech on behalf of the two: "Everyone also knows that if you help others receive the award, the winner usually writes the acceptance speech on a piece of paper and reads it to the representative leader. Of course, Chen Chen and Chen Bella also gave me their acceptance speeches, but there were some things in it that I was embarrassed to say, so I said it according to my own meaning. ”

"Are you trying to tamper with other people's acceptance speeches?" Su Chengying, who was next to him, glared and interjected.

"Yes. Xiao Yao smiled and nodded.

"Huh?" there was an exclamation from the audience.

"How could they ask you to accept the award on their behalf?" I guess I will regret dying now!" Su Chengying stroked his forehead with his hand, shook his head helplessly and sighed.

"So if you miss any award ceremony in the future, don't ask me to accept the award on your behalf. Xiao Yao smiled and looked at Su Chengying and said.

"Thank you for reminding me, I won't!" Su Chengying said angrily.

"Haha~" The conversation between the two naturally caused laughter from the audience.

"Well, here's my acceptance speech on behalf of both of them. Xiao Yao said, "Chen Chen, thank you Chen Bella, thank you company, thank you boss, thank you Xiao... Xiao Siqi boss. Chen Beila, thank you Chen Chen, thank you Yuyu, thank you Xiao... Mr. Xiao Siqi's studio released this single by Chen Chen. The two thanked the jury, the fans, and of course, most importantly, the ~"

From Xiao Yao's two pauses in "Thank you Xiao", the audience felt that Xiao Yao's so-called tampering with the acceptance speech should have omitted his name, because Chen Chen could not thank the boss and thank Xiao Siqi again, this place should be thanks to the songwriter and producer. The same is true of Chen Bella's pause to thank Xiao, probably because she is embarrassed to mention her name. And when Xiao Yao said the last pause, the audience couldn't help but guess whether Xiao Yao would finally say his name.

"Thank you to all the netizens, all the online anchors on all the live broadcast platforms, and your fans and friends!" Xiao Yao raised the trophy and continued, "Without you, this song would not have won the award!"
