After the 52nd Grammy Music Awards ceremony, in addition to Beyoncé, who received ten nominations to set a Grammy record and won six awards, Zhang Huasong was the most eye-catching winner.

Not only because he won the most important Grammy Song of the Year Award, but also because he was the "winner of the Biggest Grammy Award in History" and the special status of the athlete to receive the Grammy Music Award.

The Los Angeles Times Grammy Special Report: "At the just-concluded 52nd Grammy Awards, Beyoncé Gisele North, who received ten nominations to set a record for Grammys, won six awards and is undoubtedly the biggest winner of this year's Grammys." The king of track and field and tennis player Zhang Huasong won the Grammy Rookie of the Year and became the winner of the Grammy's biggest rookie award in history. In addition, Zhang Huasong's pure music single "Victory" was highly anticipated and won the best song of the year. As an athlete, he reached the top of the world's highest-ranking Grammy Music Awards, and Zhang Huasong also created a miracle. ”

The Los Angeles Times commentary is the tone of most media around the world, and countless people find it amusing that Zhang Huasong, who is one of the top ten international superstars, has become a Grammy Newcomer Award winner. At the same time, I am also happy that Zhang Huasong's "Victory" won the best song of the year.

"Victory" is pure music, with no lyrics and no incomprehension problems, and people all over the world can hear the vigorous and inspiring power of this pure music song.

Therefore, "Victory" won the best song of the year, which is a result that the vast majority of netizens and fans around the world want to see.

However, Zhang Huasong is a Chinese after all, and netizens and fans around the world are still worried about whether his songs can be recognized by the Grammy judges, who are mainly European, American and English songs.

Now that the dust has finally settled, "Victory" has successfully won the Grammy Song of the Year, proving that the Grammy judges and ordinary netizens have the same level of appreciation.

While being happy for Zhang Huasong, they are also happy for their own vision, and there is a sense of pride that netizens have influenced the decision-making of the Grammy organizing committee.

In addition to Zhang Huasong's fans, compatriots, fans, and netizens who like "Victory", the South African World Cup Organizing Committee is also very happy that Zhang Huasong won the Grammy Award.

Taking advantage of the popularity of Zhang Huasong's just winning the Grammy Award, the South African World Cup Organizing Committee and FIFA jointly held a press conference on February 2, and the spokesman said:

"Since the South Africa World Cup Organizing Committee sent invitations to the world's top musicians last year, as of December 31, 2009, we have received nearly 100 World Cup theme songs. After one month of rigorous screening, we finally selected "E-Ill-Rock-You" by Zhang Huasong, an international superstar and winner of the 52nd Grammy Music Awards for Best Song of the Year, as the only official theme song of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. We believe that "E-Ill-Rock-You" is the most suitable piece for the football field, and we also believe that it is a classic song that can be passed down on the football field for many years to come. Later, we will contact Zhang Huasong to start the official MV shooting plan of the World Cup theme song, and strive to make this song meet the fans as soon as possible. ”

When the media and people around the world were still admiring Zhang Huasong as an athlete from a non-European and American and non-English-speaking country to win the Grammy Music Award, they did not expect that the South African World Cup Organizing Committee and FIFA suddenly stood up and announced the results of their World Cup theme song selection.

And the author of the 2010 World Cup theme song is Zhang Huasong, who has just won two awards at the Grammy Music Awards, which has been broadcast in more than 100 countries around the world.

People all over the world were stunned!

Even the most confident fans of Zhang Huasong and overseas Chinese compatriots are also amazed by Zhang Huasong's achievements and ability to dominate the news page!

Having just defended his Australian Open title, he could become the first athlete in tennis' 100-year history to win the Grand Slam of the Year twice, and then crossed over as an athlete to win one of the most important Grammys of each time: Song of the Year.

These two achievements, put on anyone in the world, are enough to get heavy coverage in the media of various countries, and even front-page headlines.

Zhang Huasong's two achievements in one day on January 31 are surprising enough!

Unexpectedly, this is not the end, after only one day of discussion about Zhang Huasong's Australian Open championship and Grammy Awards, his music was announced as the theme song of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa on February 2.

As the number one sport in the world, football has the largest number of fans and spectators of any sport in the world, more than half of the total population.

Although this is just a theme song, it is not Zhang Huasong who plays football himself. But there are more athletes playing football, and the World Cup theme song is only once in four years, and it is to be sung at the opening ceremony.

Singing at the opening ceremony of the World Cup, which was broadcast live around the world, the audience may have watched more people around the world than the Australian Open final and the Grammys combined.

If the song is good, it can even go on forever, which is more impactful than winning a Grammy.

Therefore, the journalists were excited.

Before Zhang Huasong left Los Angeles after attending the Grammy Awards, media reporters flocked to the hotel and strongly demanded to interview Zhang Huasong.

For interviews with reporters and increasing exposure, as long as it is convenient for him, Zhang Huasong will never refuse. In order to complete the system task, Zhang Huasong can only live this life under the flash.

I just hope to complete the task as soon as possible, let go of the baggage, and enjoy life.

Therefore, Zhang Huasong borrowed the hotel's conference room to hold a press conference, and selected reporters from dozens of large media to be interviewed and asked questions by the group.

What reporters are most interested in is naturally the content of the song, and it is best if Zhang Huasong can sing it for everyone to hear.

This cannot be disclosed yet, but Zhang Huasong confidently told everyone that this song is very suitable for fans to sing together.

When the time comes, everyone will know when the MV is made.

Seeing that the content of the theme song could not be set, the reporters turned to other issues and conducted a half-hour group interview with Zhang Huasong, involving track and field, tennis, music, MV shooting plan, Zhang Huasong and his girlfriend Shu Yufei's emotional gossip, etc.

Now Zhang Huasong is really full of news all over his body, and he is the most popular with reporters.

If he can answer, Zhang Huasong will answer, and if he can't answer, he will naturally have nothing to say.

Within three days, he successfully defended his Australian Open Grand Slam title, won two Grammy Music Awards, and his work was announced as the theme song of the World Cup.

The three world-class achievements have made Zhang Huasong's limelight and news popularity no less than that of "Avatar", which is still sweeping the world and frantically harvesting the box office.

In the heated discussion and amazement of Zhang Huasong all over the world, Zhang Huasong's team got in touch with the South African organizing committee and began to discuss the shooting of the MV of "e-ill-rock-you".

In this regard, although Zhang Huasong's theme song conquered the organizing committee, the South African organizing committee had different ideas about the singing of the song and the shooting of the MV.

The World Cup is not just a football match, but a huge, global platform for political show.

Look at the size of the heads of state, royal family, world celebrities, international superstars, and wives that appear in the stands at the opening, closing, and finals of each World Cup, and you can see how influential the World Cup is.

As an African country, it is not easy for South Africa to host a World Cup. I don't know when I want to hold a world tournament like the World Cup or the Olympics next time.

Therefore, as the most important World Cup theme song in addition to the game, the domestic music industry in South Africa naturally has to compete.

Even if the theme song is more about quality and is not written by musicians from your own country, the singing of the theme song and the shooting of the MV must always involve musicians from your own country, right?

For the World Cup hosted by your own country, if the theme song has no domestic elements at all, is it worthy of your own fans and spectators?

Therefore, the South African organizing committee proposed that the shooting of the MV should be set in South Africa, and other natural landscapes except for the competition footage must be filmed in South Africa.

Also, there is no doubt that the lead singer of the theme song is Zhang Huasong, but the South African organizing committee asked to join a South African band, Freshlyground, to sing for Zhang Huasong.

Freshlyground is a South African band of seven musicians from different disciplines, with a distinct South African musical style.

Naturally, this band is the representative of the South African music industry who has gone through layers of games and is ready to sing at the opening ceremony of the World Cup.

The host made such a reasonable request, and Zhang Huasong did not refuse.

After all, the song "E-Ill-Rock-You" is also a choral song in itself. Even if there is no Freshlyground backing vocal, Zhang Huasong has to find someone to sing when filming the MV and singing live at the opening ceremony.

Therefore, Zhang Huasong, Pan Xiaowen and others returned to China, dealt with some studio matters, and boarded the plane to South Africa.

After the Grammys, the next big event Zhang Huasong must attend will be the Laureus World Sports Awards on March 10.

There was a gap of more than 1 month in between, and it was enough to go to South Africa to shoot the MV for the World Cup theme song.

As one of the top ten international superstars, Zhang Huasong set foot on African soil for the first time and was welcomed by countless black fans.

Although Zhang Huasong has not yet reached the top of the international superstar rankings, in Africa, Zhang Huasong is more popular than the top few kings and queens.

Because Zhang Huasong is Chinese.

In the minds of most Africans, Europe is a colonizer, the Stars and Stripes are the world's policemen and hegemonists who stir up trouble everywhere, and only the Chinese and Africa are good brothers.

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Chinese government has provided the largest amount of aid and medical treatment to the African continent in the world.

Therefore, in the land of Africa, Zhang Huasong, who is Chinese, is more popular than all other European and American international superstars.

In order to leave a good impression on the African people and thank these black fans for picking up the plane, Zhang Huasong, who set foot on African soil for the first time, stayed at the airport for several hours to sign all the African fans who picked him up.

Sure enough, this incident then became the focus of major media reports in South Africa and even Africa, and Zhang Huasong won the favor of countless Africans.

"World superstar Zhang Huasong set foot on the African continent for the first time and stayed for hours at the airport in South Africa's capital to sign autographs for his African fans. 》

"Flying from the northern hemisphere to the southern hemisphere, across most of the world, Zhang Huasong also supported fatigue to sign autographs for African fans who picked him up at the airport, and the scene was quite moving. 》

Not only was the fan pick-up, but after a day of rest in the hotel arranged by the World Cup Organizing Committee, Zhang Huasong was even received by the Vice President of South Africa, making it look like a meeting of national leaders.

Although the interview only lasted less than half an hour, and it was all official clichés. But this attitude alone can make everyone in Zhang Huasong's team excited for a few days.

In addition to being received and praised by the president of the state together with the Chinese delegation after the Peking Olympics, this is the first time that Zhang Huasong has received such high political treatment in a foreign country.

Zhang Huasong's arrival has been continuously reported and exposed in South Africa and even many African media pages.

From Zhang Huasong's work being announced as the theme song of the World Cup in South Africa, to Zhang Huasong's arrival in the South African capital to sign autographs for fans, to Zhang Huasong's reception by the Vice President of South Africa, etc., Zhang Huasong's news has never stopped.

After meeting with the vice president, Zhang Huasong's team and the South African World Cup Organizing Committee began to formally negotiate the shooting of the MV.

The MV of the World Cup theme song must be indispensable to the classic footage of football games, and it is only necessary to capture the footage of the World Cup qualifiers on all continents in South Africa and the classic matches of the previous World Cups.

The main work of the MV is the recording of Zhang Huasong and the band Freshlyground, the local shooting in South Africa, and the accompanying dance arrangement with African national characteristics.

English is the official language of South Africa, Zhang Huasong is proficient in English, and there is no problem in communication between the film crew.

The lyrics of "E-ill-Rock-You" are relatively simple, and most of the shots are just editing the video of the football game, and there is not much work to shoot.

Therefore, less than a week after arriving in South Africa, the MV for the official theme song of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa was filmed.

The next step is post-production, release, and the start of the World Cup publicity work, which has little to do with Zhang Huasong.

He only needs to cooperate with the publicity when the MV is released, and finally come to South Africa to sing at the opening ceremony at the beginning of the World Cup.

The remuneration is not much, but the gain of popularity is huge.

After the filming of the MV was completed, Zhang Huasong also signed two of South Africa's largest brand endorsements and shot two simple TV commercials locally before leaving South Africa and returning to China.

In Huaguo, Zhang Huasong also has several new brand endorsements and old endorsement upgrade contracts.

With Zhang Huasong's worldwide breakthroughs in various fields, there are more and more brands waving checks to sign Zhang Huasong.

However, the selection of Zhang Huasong's team is becoming more and more strict.

is not one of the leading brands in the industry, and Zhang Huasong's team has not taken it at all.

Even so, there are still a lot of brands lining up to send money to Zhang Huasong, both domestic and international, and Zhang Huasong's team can only choose some suitable ones without affecting Zhang Huasong's competition.
