On January 16, 1994, the 1993 Pop Chart Awards Ceremony was once again held at the Hong Hom Stadium in Hong Kong. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
At the regular cocktail party at noon, Ye Zi and Yantai Wenhui took Zhang Lei, Xie Yun and Zeng Chun as soon as they appeared at the venue, and they were tightly surrounded by the reporters' long guns and short guns.
"Mr. Ye Zi, what do you think of tonight's awards?"
"Mr. Ye Zi, Ethan said in an interview that he must defeat you, how do you feel about this?"
"Mr. Ye Zi, last year you said that you would win the grand prize next time, are you confident that you will win the grand prize tonight?"
"Mr. Ye Zi, has the release date of your third album been confirmed? I heard that you changed your style again on this album, is it the pop-rock style you said in a radio interview a while ago? Can you give us a glimpse into the future of this album? ”
"Bruce, when are you going to give a recital? Will there be such a plan next year? Is it possible to choose to release a solo album on classical guitar first? ”
"President of Lantai, Wenhui Entertainment brought three mainland Chinese singers to Xiangjiang this time, what is your intention? Does this indicate that Chinese mainland singers are going to attack the Xiangjiang music scene in an all-out way? ”
"This young lady, I think you seem to be a little familiar, have you ever been to Xiangjiang before?"
…… And so on and so forth.
One by one, the reporters were like flies staring at a big meal, buzzing around Ye Zi and his party.
Ye Zi and Yutai Wenhui simply answered the reporters' questions, took Zhang Lei and others around the reception a little, took a photo and chatted with some acquaintances, and then left the reception scene. This trip took more than half an hour, and Ye Zi was now able to enjoy the treatment of a big-name singer who arrived late and left early.
But...... Like Brother Xueyou, if it weren't for the organizer's strong requirement that every candidate singer must be present to attend the reception, Ye Zi and they wouldn't have come over at all. With Ye Zi's current status, such a drinking party can no longer attract him.
Come on, just save face.
……
In the afternoon, it was still the same suite as last year.
"Xiao Yezi, what do you think of tonight's awards...... Well, I mean...... Do you feel sure about it? Do you need to talk to each other again? Tantai Wenhui put down the teacup in his hand, pondered the sentence, and asked.
Ye Zi shook his head with a smile: "There shouldn't be any need for Sister Hui, if it is according to my results this year, the organizer will award all the awards to me without any problem, just let them balance it themselves." I think...... At least one or two awards, they will definitely give it to me, otherwise they will not be able to settle with the fans alone, and the media will definitely take the opportunity to make waves, and they can't afford such consequences. ”
Tantai Wenhui also smiled: "I also know that the situation should be like this, it's just ...... The award has not yet been received, and it is always not so down-to-earth. ”
"By the way, you still have to hurry up the preparations for the concert after the year, Tang Nu has already complained to me a few times, I want you to confirm all the songs of the concert and hand them over to him earlier, their band can rehearse earlier, otherwise I am afraid it will be too late."
As she spoke, Tantai Wenhui looked a little worried.
At the beginning of next year, Ye Zi's concert will be officially held at the Honghom Gymnasium, and ten consecutive performances will be held for the first time, which is a major event that Wenhui and Wenhui Entertainment have been busy with recently. From a certain point of view, the importance of this concert is even more important than the three major awards from tonight. Ye Zi has not yet decided on the repertoire of the concert and handed it over to Tang Nu, who organized the concert accompaniment team, and Wenhui is also a little anxious.
I can't afford to delay.
Ye Zi burst out laughing.
"Sister Hui, Brother Tang Nu is using you," Ye Zi had a playful expression: "Didn't he help me arrange a few songs in each of my albums, and he is now...... I just want to put the songs I arranged in the concert, and I'm afraid that I will give up these songs, so I put a little pressure on me through you. ”
"This Brother Tangnu, I don't know what he's thinking in his head all day, I told him a long time ago that these songs will definitely be sung, but he just doesn't believe it."
"Sister Hui, you said he was fun, right?"
Yutai Wenhui smiled and pointed at Ye Zi: "Xiao Yezi, then you just decided on the repertoire of the concert earlier, why are you dragging people like this?" ”
Ye Zi put away his smile: "Sister Hui, it's not that I want to drag them, but the Xiangjiang musicians and Lao Huang summoned by Brother Tang Nu and their cooperation is not tacit enough." The concert is still early, and I want these two bands to be better integrated, otherwise it won't be interesting for me to pull Lao Huang and them over. ”
"I have mentioned this idea to Brother Tang Nu several times, and this is what it means to let Lao Huang and them come to Xiangjiang in advance. You can tell him that my concert repertoire will only be finalized until the two bands can fit together very well. Sister Hui, don't worry, as long as the two bands are pinched together, the song rehearsal is a very easy thing for them, and they can do it in a week, and it will definitely not delay things. ”
Tantai Wenhui thought for a while, and then nodded: "That's right, okay, I know about this matter, and I will negotiate with Tang Nu." But Xiaoyezi, you have to decide on the track as soon as possible. ”
"It's been decided a long time ago," Ye Zi smiled again: "How could I not take such a big matter to heart?" The repertoire and the order of singing have been decided, and I will hand it over to you tomorrow, and we will discuss it together. ”
"Sister Hui, don't worry."
Yutai Wenhui glared at Ye Zi with disgust and didn't say anything more.
……
At 6:50 p.m., Ye Zi and his entourage left the hotel and drove to the Hung Hom Stadium.
Entering the infield, the stands were already crowded with black heads, and fans of such awards ceremonies have always come early. The singer and guest areas in the infield are also mostly full, and only the seats in the first two rows are still quite empty.
Chen Yichen and Keny have arrived.
There are many people on Ye Zi's side this year, and Chen Yichen and Brother Keny have not entered the venue with Ye Zi like last year. Chen Yichen sat on the side of the first row of the singer area, and Keny sat in the third row of the singer area, the same as last year. Ye Zi said to Zhang Lei, walked to Chen Yichen alone, and Wenhui took Zhang Lei and sat with Brother Keny.
This year, Ye Zi and Chen Yichen have been able to sit in the first row, which shows the singer's weight in the Xiangjiang music scene, with their excellent results.
"Huh? It seems like...... It's a little different. Little potato, don't you think? Ye Zi sat down next to Chen Yichen, and the camera lens immediately pointed at him.
Chen Yichen tilted his head slightly, covered his mouth with his hand and whispered: "I already knew, Xiao Yezi, cover your mouth when you speak, don't let people see what you said." ”
"And they saw me moving...... Oh, you mean lip language? Ye Zi was surprised: "It won't be so exaggerated, right?" ”
"I told you to cover my mouth and then speak," Chen Yichen laughed softly: "Every year, the awards TV station invites experts who interpret lip language, just to catch some news, isn't it a normal thing?" That's it for sitting in the first row, there's no way around it. ”
Ye Zi immediately covered his mouth as well.
"Xiao Yezi, you have to be mentally prepared, I'll beat you to the ground when the awards are presented later, do you believe it or not?" Chen Yichen said proudly.
Ye Zi cut and glanced at him: "It's okay for the top ten to give it to you, the grand prize will be mine." ”
"Not only the top ten, but I also have hope for the grand prize, right?"
"Well, there must be hope, but the jackpot is mine in the end."
"Xiao Yezi, you can't do this," Chen Yichen was anxious: "There are several awards tonight, you can't want to win them, right?" It's not righteous to eat alone! ”
"Hehe, anyway, the jackpot is mine."
Chen Yichen was angry, blinked his eyes, and he suddenly laughed: "Okay, you sinister little leaf, do you think I will believe it?" Hmph, we'll see. ”
"We'll see, the jackpot is mine, too."
Ye Zi said again with a smile.
……
At 7:30 p.m., the awards ceremony started on time.
"The tenth place in the top ten...... "Goodbye Favorite Person", singer Ye Zi."
In the warm applause of the audience, Ye Zi patted Chen Yichen's shoulder, blinked his eyes, and walked onto the stage with a smile.
"The fifth place in the top ten...... "Unparalleled in the World", singer Chen Yichen."
Chen Yichen straightened his clothes, glanced at Ye Zi proudly, and strode onto the stage.
"The third place in the top ten...... "Those Flowers", singer Ye Zi."
Ye Zi deliberately hugged Chen Yichen, then stretched out two fingers with his right hand, raised his index finger with his left hand, and gestured to him with a smile. That, of course, is what it means to be 2 to 1.
Chen Yichen has a black line.
Starting from the host, the audience laughed, and everyone at the scene and in front of the TV knew the agreement between Ye Zi and Chen Yichen.
"The winner of the Bronze Award for Male Singer in the Music World is...... Congratulations to Ethan, who won the Bronze Award. ”
Chen Yichen hugged him like Ye Zi, and then made a 2-to-2 gesture, Ye Zi pursed his lips and turned his face away.
The audience laughed again.
Ye Zi was not comfortable in his heart.
This is an important award that Ye Zi attaches great importance to, but now that the organizer has awarded the bronze award to Chen Yichen, it is definitely impossible for Ye Zi to win this award. Otherwise, there is no way for the organizers to strike a balance.
Sure enough, the silver award and the gold award were won by Liu Tianwang and Brother Xue You, respectively. Chen Yichen represents an emerging force, and those two represent the backbone of the current Xiangjiang music scene, which is an extremely balanced result.
More than halfway through the award ceremony, Ye Zi's hope award still hasn't appeared.
……
"The winner of the Bronze Award for National Professional Promotion is...... Chen Yichen! Congratulations again to Ethan, this is his third award tonight! ”
In the stormy applause of the audience, Chen Yichen stood up happily, made a 3-2 lead gesture to Ye Zi proudly, and then turned to the stage.
But Chen Yichen didn't get proud for long.
"The winner of the Silver Award for National Professional Promotion is...... Ye Zi! Congratulations to Ye Zi again, this is also his third award tonight! ”
Ye Zi felt a lot more comfortable.
patted Chen Yichen on the shoulder, Ye Zi sighed and shook his head, and then walked quickly onto the stage.
The audience burst into laughter once again.
……
"The winner of the IFPI Award for the blockbuster album is ...... "Ye Zi's Folk/Dream"! Let's congratulate Ye Zi again for getting the first grand prize tonight! The host's voice was excited.
In the singer area, Ye Zi jumped up and waved his fist vigorously.
In this award, which was judged by album sales, Ye Zi finally won this extremely heavy award with an annual sales of more than ten platinums - this can even be said to be the most important award among the awards. The status and influence of singers, in the end, still have to be based on sales.
Ye Zi's award is well deserved.
……
The host had retreated to the back, and Ye Zi was bathed in the brilliant lights alone, his left hand tightly holding the uniquely shaped and cool trophy, and holding the microphone in his right hand.
"Whew! I've finally won a big prize, otherwise I'd have said a lot and I'd be scolded to death tomorrow. ”
The audience chuckled.
Ye Zi kissed the trophy again and took a deep breath: "Thank you very much to the commercial radio station for awarding this award to me, I know this is an encouragement to me, I will use more serious and diligent work to repay your love for me, thank you respected Yu Dong and all the seniors of the commercial radio station!" ”
"Two years ago, as a singer from other cities, I broke into the Xiangjiang music scene in a daze with the idea that the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, to be honest, I didn't expect that I would be accepted by the Xiangjiang music scene at that time, I just wanted to find a better publisher for my album. It was the Xiangjiang music scene that accepted me, just because I still had a little talent; It was the Xiangjiang fans who accepted me, just because I could still sing a few songs that everyone loved to listen to. ”
"Sometimes I imagine what would have happened if the Xiangjiang music scene and fans hadn't accepted me at that time?"
The audience was extremely quiet, and only Ye Zi's voice continued to sound.
"I will continue to develop independently in the Chinese mainland music scene, and I may have the opportunity to enter the Xiangjiang music scene in the future, maybe ...... No, there is. ”
"So for me, the acceptance and kindness of the Xiangjiang music scene and Xiangjiang fans have given my singing career a cornerstone that can really take off, and it is the Xiangjiang music scene and Xiangjiang fans who have given my dream wings to fly!"
"I am grateful to the Xiangjiang music scene for accepting me!"
"I am grateful to the Xiangjiang fans who have treated me well!"
"I am willing to continue to work hard for a more brilliant tomorrow for the Xiangjiang music scene, and I am also willing to dedicate more and better excellent works to the fans of Xiangjiang!"
"Thank you!"
"I love you guys!"
In the tsunami-like applause and shouts, Ye Zi raised the trophy in his hand high, and the most touching smile bloomed on his face.
