At the end of the BBC report, it also appealed: The Grammys must not have any narrow views, they must open the door to the awards, and take musicality and artistry as the only principles of awards!

The BBC also believes that Zheng Xiao's artistic achievements are fully qualified for the Grammy Award. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

It calls on the judges not to have any prejudice against Zheng Xiao, to strengthen their own artistic evaluation standards, and to select truly outstanding works and outstanding artists.

The BBC's report caused an uproar in Europe and the United States.

William Lobie's remarks also provoked great indignation among artists from countries other than English-speaking countries.

Musicians from France, Germany, Italy and other countries have written articles or given interviews, rebuking and attacking William Lobie's views, and for a while, William Lobie was simply shouted and beaten by everyone.

And in the United States, people in the music industry are also taking action.

MJ was interviewed by the New York Times for the first time.

MJ told reporters that he was shocked to see the news of Robbie William, and he didn't expect that the time had reached the new millennium, and there would be such narrow-minded musicians.

"The Grammys are American, but also the world, and the greatness of this award is that it is very fair and fair, its jury is the largest in the world, and its judges are very professional, the judges are real artists, they know what kind of music is the best, and they can always select the best music works to give them honors. This is the main reason why the Grammys are becoming more and more influential! MJ told reporters.

"I firmly believe that the vast majority of our judges will not refuse to vote for Zheng just because he is not an American! I'm also a Grammy judge, I'll vote for Zheng, I support Zheng, his music is great, he's a very honest person! ”

"If Zheng is not on the list of winners of this year's Grammy Awards, people all over the world will be disappointed with this award!"

MJ issued a declaration of strong support for Zheng Xiao.

And Mai Dangna also said in an interview with reporters: "Zheng is qualified to win the Grammy Awards, and his ten Grammy nominations are enough to prove that he is the favorite of this year's Grammys, I firmly believe that although some people slander and slander, this will never hinder Zheng Xiao in any way, believe me, he will win a lot of awards, he will get a lot of support, that is a great young man, people who have dealt with him know that he is very cute, very interesting, he is a very good person, in short, please support him!" ”

Britney Spears directly began to canvass for Zheng Xiao: "If everyone supports me, please support Zheng, if everyone likes me, please vote for Zheng!" After the incident of William Lobi came out, my heart was very heavy, and I wondered, why would anyone have such a big prejudice against Zheng, is it because of the restriction of nationality? That's too narrow-minded, isn't it? I hope that justice can triumph over evil, that truth can triumph over prejudice, and that the charm of art can sublimate people's minds. My friends, if you have a Grammy vote, please help me and vote for Zheng! ”

Those singers and musicians who have more influence in the United States have also expressed their support for Zheng Xiao through various ways and channels.

For a while, because of William Lobie's perverse behavior, it aroused the anger of the music circle, and everyone was very disgusted with William Lobie, and they all began to canvass for Zheng Xiao.

On the contrary, this created a huge momentum for Zheng Xiao.

In this case, ordinary people also join in.

William Lobie launched a White House petition to ban the awarding of Grammys to musicians outside of English-speaking countries, asking for signatures.

As long as 100,000 signatures are collected, the White House will have to reply to him personally.

His petition was echoed, and in a short period of time, thousands of signatures were collected.

It's all radicals who are responding to him.

However, there was a counter-signature campaign immediately: a signature petition to support any country's musicians to run for the Grammys.

The campaign quickly gained a large number of supporters.

In just two or three days, more than 800,000 people signed in support.

This also makes the White House have to come forward to explain: music has no borders, and the White House unconditionally supports the Grammys to carry out awards for a wider range of countries and music genres, but the government will not interfere in such awards, and how the Grammys should be awarded needs to be decided by the American Recording Association and all its members.

And in this case, the American Recording Association also had to stand up and express its opinion.

Relevant people said: The American Recording Association supports the healthy and orderly development of the Grammys, and in the future development process of the Grammys, it will gradually increase the share of international awards, and will face all outstanding musicians in all countries around the world, as long as it is excellent music, it will get the attention of the Grammys. The Grammys will not be unduly interfered with, it will maintain its fairness and impartiality, and it is confident that its members will carefully cast their votes.

When talking about whether a foreigner like Zheng Xiao is eligible to participate in the awards, a relevant person from the American Recording Association said that Zheng Xiao's album was written and sung in English, and it has had a huge influence in the United States, and it fully complies with the rules of the awards. Zheng Xiao's ability to be nominated for ten Grammy Awards is enough to show that the selection of the Grammys is fair and without the slightest bias!

As for whether Zheng Xiao will win the award in the end, the person said that only God knows, after all, there are really too many artists participating in the Grammy Awards, and excellent artists abound, and in recent years, a lot of excellent works have emerged.

But the person also said that Zheng Xiao is very likely to win several awards.

"He's a really good guy, he's the hottest singer in the United States and even Europe and the United States in the past year or so, he's in the limelight, he's even more than MJ, even if he gets all the awards in ten nominations, it's not unusual!"

These words of the relevant people of the American Recording Association were regarded as official statements of support for Zheng Xiao, and they were immediately warmly reported by the media.

The time is approaching the 2008 Chinese New Year.

In China, it has been full of flavor.

Many people are already preparing for the Chinese New Year.

And the entanglement between Zheng Xiao and the Grammy Awards also instantly detonated major media across the country and became a hot news at the end of the year.

It was at this time that Zheng Xiao received Julia, a China correspondent for the New York Times, in her office in Xijing.
