Chapter 901: Small Talk (I)
As soon as Ye Zi arrived in Xiangjiang, Chen Yichen asked him out to sigh for coffee, anyway, he was not tired, Ye Zi asked for a leave of absence from Wenhui, and after a makeover, he came to this extremely hidden café according to the address pointed out by Chen Yichen. The www.biquge.info is an investment in Huaxing Records, not to make money, but to provide a place for its artists to rest and relax with friends, and not to be disturbed by fanatical fans and paparazzi who are camping around.
Without the guidance of Huaxing insiders, even Huaxing partners like Ye Zi would not be able to enter this small café with elegant and quiet decoration. Similar to this kind of "investment", some large record companies and brokerage companies in Xiangjiang basically have them.
Ye Zi was very satisfied with this meeting place.
"Little Yezi, you will lose this time." Chen Yichen said with a smile while gently stirring the brown liquid in the small cup.
"Cut, the results won't come out until the night of the 16th, and you already know in advance now?" Ye Zi spit out a big smoke ring disdainfully, and glanced sideways at the other party: "Little potato, if you don't show off your stinky beauty in front of me, you will die?" ”
Everyone's friendship is deep, and Ye Zi doesn't pay so much attention to what he says.
Chen Yichen didn't mind Ye Zi's snatching, and still looked at Ye Zi with a smile: "Well, I know you said this when you knew you were going to lose, and I decided to forgive you for your offense to me." ”
As he spoke, he raised his coffee and took a sip.
Ye Zi snorted, still squinting at Chen Yichen, with a smile on his face: "Yo, I can't see it, little potato, I didn't expect Huaxing's way to be so wild, and even the award can exert influence, Brother Keny told you?" ”
"Xiaoye (seed)...... cough cough cough ......"
When Ye Zi said that "Huaxing can influence the award", Chen Yichen was anxious, and hurriedly reached out to cover Ye Zi's mouth. But he didn't expect that the sip of coffee just now hadn't been completely swallowed, and he was miserable this time, the coffee entered the trachea and choked so much that he coughed again and again, and he couldn't even straighten up when he bent there.
Ye Zi hurriedly helped him stroke his back, and after a while, Chen Yichen gradually eased up. After taking a big sip of water, Chen Yichen put down the water cup and glared at Ye Zi angrily.
"Xiao Yezi, you're too good at talking nonsense, right? Do you dare to say such a thing? ”
"Okay, Ethan, these things are not done by the Huaxing family, just don't be held by others, just don't be able to take a real handle, I don't believe that Brother Keny hasn't explained these things to you." Ye Zi was still sitting on the sofa slightly sideways, leaning on the armrest of the sofa with his right hand supporting his chin, and his left leg was crossed on Erlang's leg, with an indescribably leisurely expression.
Also, Ye Zi hasn't had such idle chatter for a long time.
……
Chen Yichen's face changed slightly, but there were some things that he certainly couldn't admit.
"You are hearsay," Chen Yichen stared at Ye Zi's eyes, and said in a very soft but resolute voice: "Xiao Yezi, don't talk nonsense outside like this." ”
"Hey, I said what are you worried about?" Ye Zi snorted slightly, he knew much more about this kind of thing than Chen Yichen: "As long as I can't get real evidence, it's useless for me to run to the street and shout everywhere." ”
"After so many years, there has long been an unwritten tacit understanding between the major record companies in Xiangjiang, and no one will take the initiative to expose such an inside story, which will definitely not benefit them. Now even reporters and paparazzi won't be staring at this piece to dig up the news unless someone sends them complete evidence. ”
"How can complete evidence be so easy to come up with, would you do it?"
Ye Zi also lowered his voice and said softly.
"Of course I don't...... What, Xiaoyezi, are you fishing with me? Chen Yichen reacted immediately.
Ye Zi smiled slightly and did not continue the topic. Ye Zi has really seen and heard too much about this kind of thing, and it is not interesting to talk about it at all.
"Xiao Yezi, I said that it has nothing to do with these if you lose," Ye Zi didn't want to mention these dirty things, but Chen Yichen still stared at this: "Let me tell you, forget about other award ceremonies, 903's awards are all ranked according to the on-demand rate, which can't be faked." ”
"Now I'm first on the overall list, you're third, of course you lost."
Ye Zi nodded.
Of course he knows about 903's transparent on-demand rate system, otherwise he would not have proposed to "fight 903" with Chen Yichen at the beginning, Ye Zi values the relative fairness and transparency of 903 Radio, and this system provides him with a first-line opportunity for a "Xiangjiang singer" who came from mainland China and got a "wild card" through means. But if Chen Yichen really regards 903 as a model of absolute fairness, then he is too naïve.
……
"Ethan, then according to what you say, you should be ranked first among the top ten golden songs in the music world in 92, and I should be ranked third, right? Now the songs and rankings of the top ten golden songs have been scheduled, haven't they? ”
"Of course, this is how the total on-demand list is arranged, of course I am the first. Haha, Xiaoyezi, you finally lost to me once, I'm happy to think about it! Although he has been whispering, Chen Yichen at this time is dancing with joy.
Ye Zi didn't want to hit him, but ...... When it came time to present the awards, the hope was disappointed, and the blow to Chen Yichen was a little too big. Now, he has the idea of winning the first place in the top ten golden songs, and even hopes to impact the "supreme golden song in the music world", and there will be no landing at either end at that time, and it is difficult to say whether Chen Yichen can withstand such a blow.
The higher the hope, the greater the disappointment.
Compared with Ye Zi, Chen Yichen's mentality is obviously still a child.
"Congratulations, ethan, but ......" Ye Zi felt that he still had to wake him up: "But the ending of the award ...... It doesn't have to be the way you think, Ethan, and you have to be a little mentally prepared. ”
"Hey, Xiaoyezi, why are you the same as Brother Keny?" Chen Yichen immediately became anxious: "Now I am the first on the overall list, and even Brother Xue Youyou has to rank behind me, this is what all fans are looking at, how can it change again?" ”
Ye Zi sighed softly: "Ethan, speaking of which, you are also a native of Xiangjiang, why is your understanding of the selection of the list not as good as mine?" Do you just remember that you are the first in the overall list of 903 Chinese song playback rate, how can you forget that there is also a reference opinion of the "Thunder Song Playback Index"? ”
"With the reference opinions of this index, can you still get the first place?"
"Huh?" Chen Yichen was immediately stunned.
Obviously, someone has already thought of this Thunder Index, which is not usually much noticed, but is extremely crucial when it comes to selection. With this, Chen Yichen's first place position is definitely not so secure.
The Grand Prize, you don't even have to think about it.
……
Seriously speaking, the "Pop List Award Ceremony of the Music Circle" of Radio 903 (Xiangjiang Radio Commercial Radio 2) is indeed the most transparent award ceremony in terms of rules and operation, and the results are relatively fair and fair, and the other two "Top Ten Chinese Golden Melody Award Ceremony" and "Top Ten Golden Melody Award Ceremony" will have some unfair and unjust scandals every year, and only this award will basically not be overly questioned.
But their fairness and transparency can only be "basically", and in the music world, no award ceremony, including the world-famous "Grammy", can eliminate the existence of shady and unfair injustice. In order to win awards, even album sales may be done a lot of tricks, what else can be completely transparent, absolutely just, absolutely fair?
There is no way to guarantee absolute justice, absolute fairness.
Principal Tan should deserve the award, right? But my brother's fans will have a big question about this, why is my brother's ranking below Principal Tan? This is absolutely unscientific, and it is also absolutely unjust and unfair. This can't be regarded as shady work, but the idea of injustice and unfairness has been generated, and there are countless things like this, plus a lot of real shady work, how can these awards be absolutely fair and just?
Then you can only "sit in a row and divide the fruit".
Moreover, there is no such thing as absolute fairness and justice in this world.
The 903 awards can be basically just, basically fair, and basically transparent, and the results of the awards can be basically recognized by the fans of Xiangjiang - it is not easy to achieve these four "basics".
Counting the awards, competitions, selections, etc. in the Xiangjiang music scene over the past few decades, only the only one that can do this is "Winning the Awards".
