() Sunday evening, Chun City, the capital of Yun Province.

The room was filled with smoke.

In addition to Kang Wenbai and the expert group, the other nine members of the organizing committee had already arrived, and at this moment, everyone had a faint "hostility" in their hearts, chatting and laughing with their opponents. Tonight, this conference room will be the "battlefield" of their decisive battle, and a battle without gunpowder is about to begin.

Li Zhifei is not a member of the organizing committee, but because of the recommendation of Ye Zi, he was also invited to attend the meeting tonight. There are three other people like Li Zhifei, and now there are thirteen people sitting in the conference room.

Li Zhifei is still sitting with his uncle, and Li Wende, the director of Yunnan Provincial Television Station, is naturally one of the members of the organizing committee. Any large-scale event organized by Zhengfu is inseparable from the power of propaganda media such as television stations, radio stations, and magazines.

In the organizing committee, Li Wende's words still carry a little weight.

At seven o'clock in the evening, Kang Wenbai stepped into the door of the conference room on time with his water glass. A minute before he came in, Professor Nalan Qinghui, who had disappeared for several days, and two other members of the expert group appeared in the conference room at the same time, sitting firmly in their respective seats, looking intently at the written materials in their hands, and putting on a repulsive attitude. In fact, at this time, there will be no one to cling to it.

The second thematic meeting to determine the theme song of the tourism festival is about to begin.

……

Thousands of miles away in Shencheng, the weekly "Pop Song Chart" program is being broadcast.

“…… Listeners and friends, so far in the program, all ten songs from the twentieth to the eleventh have been broadcast. As in previous weeks, among the ten songs, Jiang and Taiwan songs accounted for six, and Chinese mainland songs accounted for four, basically evenly divided. This is what we want to see and what we would like to see. ”

"In the "Weekly New Song Recommendation" column broadcast yesterday, I recommended two new songs by young singers Zhang Lei and Zeng Chun in the city. These two new songs are unconventional and refreshing. We have good reason to believe that their names should appear on next week's list. ”

"Then let's wait and see."

"Go on. Our show will begin the broadcast of the top 10 songs on this week's chart. At number 10 this week is a song that everyone knows and loves, but which song is it? Hehe, Xia Ning is selling it for the time being, let's listen to it first. ”

said. Xia Ning pushed the volume fader of the song track up.

The singing voice is converted into radio waves, transmitted to every radio at the speed of light, and is restored to the beautiful singing voice again to the ears of every listener.

……

"Comrades, now for the meeting."

Kang Wenbai came to his chairmanship and sat down. Without any further ado, the meeting was immediately opened.

"Today is Sunday, and we have worked hard to gather everyone for this meeting during the break."

"But time is running out!"

"Today is March 22nd, and there are only three weeks left before the opening ceremony of the festival, and we don't have any time to waste uselessly. So tonight, the theme song of the tourism festival must be decided. ”

Kang Wenbai's speech was categorical, purposeful, and imposing.

After a slight pause, Kang Wenbai glanced at all the people attending the meeting. Go on.

"Next, first of all, I would like to ask Professor Nalan Qinghui to introduce to you the specific method of choosing the theme song this time."

"Professor Nalan, please."

The people in the conference room immediately pricked up their ears and concentrated their spirits.

Nalan Qinghui put down the text materials in his hand, cleared his throat, and spoke.

"Before talking about this song selection method, I would like to inform you about the final situation of this song collection."

"This time, we have a total of 15 candidates. After a preliminary review by our expert group, we believe that these 15 songs are all works of heart. All meet the requirements put forward by the organizing committee, and each capital is a qualified work. ”

"Thank you so much for your hard work and not letting a single song get mixed in, which has made our work a lot easier."

"I speak for all the members of the Panel. Thank you! ”

After speaking, Nalan Qinghui got up and nodded his thanks to all the temporary colleagues present.

The applause rang out softly.

"Good news for everyone."

Kang Wenbai interjected at the end of Nalan Qinghui's words.

"The higher-level leaders attach great importance to the preparations for this tourism festival. After listening to the special report of the organizing committee, the leaders instructed that all the 15 songs collected will be selected into the theme album of the tourism festival, and the organizing committee will entrust the Yunnan Provincial Audio-visual Publishing House to produce a large-capacity CD album and two ordinary tape albums for distribution nationwide. ”

Kang Wenbai threw out the latest news in a timely manner.

The applause was even louder.

Li Zhifei's heart finally put it in his stomach. Even Ye Zi's "South of the Clouds" can't choose this theme song. I won't eat the top row myself, at most, it's useless.

That's already good.

……

Shanghai.

The show continues.

"Everyone must have heard that this week's tenth-ranked song is the Cantonese version of "I Wait for the Flowers to Be Thankful" written and composed by Ye Zi and sung by Xiangjiang singer Chen Yichen."

"Interestingly, the original singer of this Cantonese version was Ye Zi, a young singer in the city. At the singer singing competition held in Xiangjiang at the beginning of the year, he won the first place with this song and another song "The Legend of the Hungry Wolf", setting a new record in the city's pop music scene. Since then, a remake of the song has been sold on the streets, and the new song is being sung everywhere. ”

This week, the carefully crafted Cantonese version of the song made its debut on the "Pop Songs Chart" reached 10th, which is an exciting achievement for the new generation of young singers in Hong Kong. I hope that in the days to come, Chen Yichen and his new work can make persistent efforts and achieve better results. ”

"Okay, let's take a look at which song won the ninth spot this week......"

……

in the conference room.

After the excitement, Nalan Qinghui continued to speak.

"This time, there are more songs collected, from all parts of the country, all of which are excellent works, and the song selection work is really a headache."

Speaking of this, Nalan Qinghui smiled: "You really don't know, it's also a trouble to have too many good songs, it's difficult to choose which one to choose and which one not to choose, and several of us are big." ”

"Professor, you've worked hard."

"Professor, I'll invite you to dinner when I'm done this time."

There was a chuckle in the conference room, and several officials who were familiar with Nalan Qinghui shouted twice.

Nalan Qinghui smiled and nodded: "Okay, okay, I'll talk about the dinner later, I'll continue to talk about this song selection." ”

"After collective deliberation with all of us, we decided to use blind listening to select the most suitable songs."

"The so-called 'blind listening' is a method of selecting songs by only listening to songs, not reading any written materials, and not knowing any ins and outs about songs. The only thing that all songs can rely on is the quality of the song itself. ”

As soon as Nalan Qinghui said the word "blind listening", those who knew sank in their hearts and stopped thinking about it, and those who didn't know looked at each other, and the conference room was very quiet.

"In order to ensure that each piece is fair and fair, it was decided after discussion that several members of our expert group will not participate in the blind listening process, so as not to mislead others."

"This time, we temporarily invited teachers from the music departments of Yunyi and several other colleges, as well as some singers and musicians from major performance groups in Spring City, a total of 30 people came to participate in this blind listening selection. They knew nothing about the fifteen songs beforehand, and they couldn't leave the audition room until they had reached a conclusion. Each of them will choose their favorite top three songs from these fifteen songs, and after statistics, the three songs with the most votes will be brought to the meeting, and after discussion, the choice of the theme song will be finalized. ”

Nalan Qinghui raised his wrist and looked at his watch, and said with a smile: "Blind listening started at five o'clock in the afternoon, and now, it should be almost over." Let's just wait a little bit, and they'll send it as soon as the results come out. ”

After speaking, Nalan Qinghui picked up the cup and drank water, his expression relaxed and natural.

There was a buzz in the room.

Li Zhifei suddenly felt a little opportunity in his heart.

No one thought in advance that Kang Wenbai would take the choice of the theme song so seriously this time, so much so that in order to deal with a large number of people's feelings, he came up with such a "blind listening" song selection method.

This method rejects all the favors, but this method is relatively fair and objective, and no one can say anything about the unsuccessful candidates.

Fundamentally speaking, Kang Wenbai and Nalan Qinghui chose songs so strictly, which was also based on the instructions of their superiors, and no one could say that they did something wrong.

That's what we're talking about. (To be continued.) )
