γβ¦β¦γ
Singapore is narrow and densely populated, with a land area equal to 1/38 of Cao County, the center of the universe, and 1/27 of Beiping City, with a population of about 5.8 million living in [Singapore City].
With a small land area and a dense population, even small things can be put on the table of Singaporeans in the shortest possible time as long as they are reported by the media.
Moreover, [933 Intoxicating Radio] has the first listening rate in Singapore, and the ratings of Channel 8 have exceeded 18, all signs show that the 5.8 million Singaporeans are as curious about Xu Chen as ......
Is my English good? This kind of soul problem!
As a country with a majority of Chinese, Singapore has a close tradition of culture with mainland China.
Teresa Teng, Leslie Cheung, Jacky Cheung, Princess Wang and other Chinese pop stars are sought after in China, and they are also sought after by Singaporeans.
March 18th.
In less than 24 hours, Xu Chen dominated the headlines of major newspapers, bombarded the world, and even diluted the currency devaluation caused by the Asian financial crisis.
Singapore's Internet is much more developed than China's Internet, and many netizens who woke up were confused by Xu Chen's news report, and they poured into major BBSs to chat with water:
[Who is Xu Chen, a wanted criminal?! All in the newspapers about him. γ
[Xu Chen, mainland singer, male, March 18, 97......]
[Awesome! γ
[Did you watch the Channel 8 Golden Melody Awards Gala yesterday, this is called Xu Chen! ] He can sing the songs of Andy Lau, Zhang Huimei, and the princess alone, it's like a walking CD player, and the descendants of the dragon are so good! My grandfather is from China! γ
[Xu Chen is indeed very powerful, I picked up his information from Hong Kong in the morning, debuted in March 97, and became a Chinese pop king in October, and he is nicknamed the Duck King, haha, a model for my generation! ] γ
[Upstairs, who is this Xu Chen, the girls in the school are talking about him, and the newspapers are all about him. γ
[Upstairs, Xu Chen, a mainland singer, the descendant of the dragon, the dragon scales of heaven and earth, and the rain has been falling, I like his songs, music style, and singing voice are completely different from Jacky Cheung, Andy Lau and other old-school Chinese singers, I personally think that Xu Chen will create a new era of Chinese pop music! ] γ
[Xu Chen is too strong! ] The Singapore music scene is completely incomparable, Chen Qingshen and Li Mingshun can't sing in front of him. γ
[Upstairs, Li Mingshun is not weaker than Xu Chen's singing, but Xu Chen's strongest voice is not singing! ] His creative talent is too perverted, two albums, twenty-four songs, all of which he wrote! Li Zongsheng-style perverted king of the Chinese music scene! γ
[When will Xu Chen's album be launched in Singapore, yesterday I listened to the song and the descendants of the dragon, and I like the hundred years of loneliness he sings. γ
[The princess's boyfriend, I want to hack him to death. γ
γβ¦β¦γ
Thanks to the live broadcast of [933 Intoxicating Radio] and [Channel 8]!
Xu Chen's stunning appearance in challenging Andy Lau, Zhang Huimei, and Princess Lau's songs also made a wave of presence in Southeast Asia!
Besides, his [Descendant of the Dragon] is too appetizing for overseas Chinese.
When there was no marketing, overseas Chinese would spread the word of mouth and hum: "There is a dragon in the far east, its name is the Yangtze River, I grew up in other people's land, and I am the descendant of the dragon when I grow up!" β
Now with the help of the [Singapore Golden Melody Awards], the number of listeners of [Descendants of the Dragon] exceeds 10 million, and his powerful singing voice and perverted creative ability have exploded in an instant!
There are countless large and small countries in Southeast Asia.
Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines are most influenced by Chinese pop music......
Under the supervision of Warner headquarters, its local record company marketed and hyped Xu Chen's album.
"Legend" and "Unparalleled in the World" frequently appeared in local newspapers, and at the same time, Xu Chen's songs were sung in the streets and alleys of Southeast Asia in major audio and video stores.
In Thailand, Vietnam and other regions where the influence of Chinese pop music is weak, Warner adopts a stocking policy and hands over local records to promote themselves!
β¦β¦β¦β¦
1998 year.
Although the mainland market of Chinese pop music contains huge energy, everyone knows that those who win the mainland market win the world.
In the final analysis, the mainland market is still in a state of "blue ocean" to be developed, while the Southeast Asian market is different.
Almost any wind and grass in the Southeast Asian music scene, the analysis documents can be placed in front of the major giants as soon as possible.
On the morning of March 19, Warner marketed Xu Chen's album for less than 24 hours.
Polygram, EMI, Sony, Rolling Stone, the four giants of Chinese pop music received the news.
This news is not unexpected!
As early as September 97, Warner Zhou Jianbin stunned the Chinese music scene with a series of puzzling operations, and he was nicknamed [Warner Zhou Adou] behind him!
Liu Adou can't help Shu Han, and Zhou Adou can't help Warner either!
27 million signed with mainland newcomer singer Xu Chen's album distribution rights in Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea, note that it is only the distribution rights of Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea, which is simply crazy!
If you don't sign a [brokerage contract], you can sign a Hong Kong and Taiwan album release right!
Sign a distribution right in Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea, there is a chicken feather to use, Xu Chen is a newcomer in the mainland, you can still count on his album to sell well in Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea!
27 million!
Purely sick!
At that time, the Chinese pop music newspaper reported: "Zhou Jianbin is crazy!" β
Outcome.
Zhou Jianbin broke his waist in a series of miraculous operations, completely ruined Warner, his pillar Aaron Kwok signed a contract with Sony, and the first sister Zheng Xiuwen secretly met Polygram.
The glorious Warner of the past is only a beautiful but decaying shell.
In March 98, Zhou Jianbin officially launched Xu Chen's album [Legend] and [Unparalleled in the World] to be released in Southeast Asia, and the industry couldn't laugh!
Less than six months.
The pace of the Chinese music scene, no, Xu Chen is too fast!
The Hong Kong music scene faced the Four Heavenly Kings and Jacky Cheung alone, and the album flew against the wind, winning the sales chart for three consecutive weeks, and the single champion of the Guanlian Radio Chart for 16 days.
The treasure island music scene faced Zhang Huimei and Ren Xianqi head-on, and the album sales were also blinding, winning the silver medal of the Treasure Island Golden Melody Dragon and Tiger Award, second only to Zhang Huimei, the annual gold award of the album sales of the treasure island.
Xu Chen, as a mainlander, won the silver medal and defeated Ren Xianqi, a record that blinded the major Chinese giants.
By March '98.
Mainland newcomer Xu Chen is titled "Chinese Pop King", "Treasure Island Golden Melody Singer", "Hong Kong Golden Melody Award", "Chinese Golden Melody Award", "Singapore Golden Melody Award", ......
Almost all the major authoritative awards in the Chinese pop music industry [Gold Content] awards have been won!
Moreover, Xu Chen's lyrics and songs are unparalleled, his singing voice is unparalleled, and his connections are unparalleled......
can be called a pentagonal warrior in the Chinese music scene, any of the four heavenly kings, the twin kings of the treasure island, and the Hong Kong god of songs, Xu Chen can be calm: "This person and I are 55 open!" β
The former Chinese singer [Zhou Adou] has completely washed away the humiliation, and anyone who looks at the results has to admit it......
Zhou Jianbin signed a contract with Xu Chen, which can indeed be regarded as a well-known and widely circulated song story.
The Chinese music scene is talking about it, and the Chinese giants have a headache.
There is no room for loss in the Southeast Asian music scene!
The first contestant to face Xu Chen's album offensive was Fenghua Records Zhang Huimei.
Zhang Huimei released a new album in February, and the local music scene of Baodao lost to Sony Coco Li.
Before the album sales, Sony Coco Li suppressed it, and then there was a rolling stone Xu Huaiyu chasing and beating hard, and if he was not careful, he became Xu Huaiyu's stepping stone.
Fenghua Records has a narrow channel in the mainland market, and in various circumstances, the Southeast Asian market is particularly important.
As a result, Zhang Huimei, who was preparing for the concert, was carried by Zhang Xiaoyan, president of [Fenghua Records], and thrown to Malaysia and Indonesia to run publicity.
Zhang Huimei complained, tossed and turned in the middle of the night, and sent a fierce text message to Xu Chen: "Old Xu, I won't lose to you, my territory in Southeast Asia!" Whew~"
The second player, Sony Aaron Kwok.
Warner protects Xu Chen and abandons Aaron Kwok, this matter is in the Chinese-speaking circle, some people sing about Aaron Kwok, asserting: "Among the four heavenly kings, Xu Chen was the first to defeat Aaron Kwok." β
In 1998, Aaron Kwok's career was on the rise, leading the [Four Heavenly Kings], and he and Xu Chen competed for the spokesperson of [Pepsi Cola].
This opportunity is very important to Aaron Kwok, with the help of the [Pepsi Cola] platform, he can enter the European and American music scene, achieve corner overtaking, and sit firmly on the throne of "the first person of the four heavenly kings".
Xu Chen's album is aggressive in Southeast Asia.
Aaron Kwok stared at the newspaper, Xu Chen held the trophy high, a high-spirited photo, and muttered solemnly: "Xu Chen, you are so fierce, so fierce, and so arrogant." β
Staring at the office, rows of dazzling and brilliant trophies, Aaron Kwok smiled at the corner of his mouth, folded Xu Chen's newspaper, and muttered in a deep voice: "But I am the Four Heavenly Kings, I can't lose, I can't lose." β
"Ah Wang!" The agent Xiaomei pushed open the door and came in.
Xu Chen's album is fierce in Southeast Asia, and it can't threaten Aaron Kwok for the time being, but Xiao Meixin instantly tensed.
If Xu Chen's album explodes in Southeast Asia, and the power of Hong Kong and Baodao music circles in June is overwhelmed, then Aaron Kwok will be in a state of [passive battle].
"Ah Wang, it seems that our album is going to be launched as soon as possible, and the deadline given by Sony is mid-May." Xiaomei's eyebrows are tightly twisted.
[Four Heavenly Kings] Aaron Kwok is at the peak of his career, there are countless announcements, and the album will be released in May, it is bound to breach the contract, lose money, and give up many opportunities.
"Xiaomei, I'm fine, cooperate with Sony's album plan."
Aaron Kwok did not hesitate: "From now until the album is launched, all announcements, activities, and personal entertainment will be pushed away, Xiaomei, I am going to retreat." β
The third player, Ren Xianqi, the king of Treasure Island.
Ren Xianqi was too miserable, the local sales of the album Baodao in 97 lost to Zhang Huimei, Xu Chen, and the prestige of the Chinese pop king gave Xu Chen more than half.
But.
He and Xu Chen are still the stunning twin stars of the Chinese pop music scene, one north and one south, and the Chinese pop music circles in the two sides of the strait and three places have almost a consensus: "Xu Chen and Ren Xianqi will have one of them crowned king!" β
The first person to appear in the Chinese pop music scene!
Outcome.
In 98, Coco Li and Xu Huaiyu were born, the local market of Baodao fought fiercely, and the pressure on Ren Xianqi increased day by day, and now Xu Chen's album is online in Southeast Asia.
Open up new battlefields.
Rolling Stone suddenly couldn't sit still, tilted Xu Huaiyu's resources back to more than half, and smashed them all to Ren Xianqi, and even invited Rolling Stone veterans Li Zongsheng and Luo Dayou to give Ren Xianqi a platform.
The new album was originally planned to be released in October, but it was brought forward to June, and the Rolling Stones were violent, ready to face Xu Chen head-on and help Ren Xianqi win the crown of [Heavenly King].
The first person to appear in the Chinese pop music scene!
Damn.
Ren Xianqi filmed [The Condor Heroes] during the day, and at night he had to discuss the music concept and style of the new album intensively, speaking a locomotive talk, day and night.
With two thick dark circles under his eyes, he stopped halfway through the chewing of white rice.
Brother Xiao Qi wanted to cry without tears, he was not very ambitious, Buddhist, chewed rice fiercely, and complained: "Lao Xu, you are really damned!" You're so perverted, it's stressing me out! β
Poor Ren Xianqi, when he is old, he understands that Xu Chen is doing this, so it is called special [involution]!
The custom of the music world, almost all of them are on vacation in the first half of the year, and the second half of the year is competing for hegemony in the music world.
1998, March.
In the cross-strait and three-place music circles, reporters with a keen sense of smell are clearly aware that the Chinese music scene, which has been quiet for less than 90 days, has once again sounded the clarion call for war.
This time, there is quite a smell of gunpowder in the old, middle, and new generations of Chinese pop music, and a full-scale outbreak of war.
By mid-March, the mainland's [Contemporary Music Scene], Hong Kong's [Next Magazine], and Baodao's [United Daily News] published news one after another, giving a resounding name to the 98-year-old Chinese pop music scene......
γBattle of the Heavenly Kings!γ γ
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Time back to March 18, the day after the end of the Singapore Golden Melody Awards.
Xu Chen and Zhou Jianbin came to [Li Weixiang Music School] early in the morning to come and guide. It is to accompany Zhou Jianbin to screen good seedlings.
The backyard of Southeast Asian and Chinese pop music.
In the millennium, many powerful singers emerged, such as Lin Junjie, Stefanie Sun, Liang Jingru and others, all of whom were screened out in Southeast Asia!
Li Weixiang is not very old, a legendary singer in Singapore, and the king of 933 golden songs.
He has very few works and a lot of students, such as Stefanie Sun and Li Sixiang, who are called "That Girl Said to Me".
In response to the arrival of Xu Chen and Zhou Jianbin .
Li Weixiang attaches great importance to it, and when he saw Xu Chen for the first time, he admired it very much and said politely: "Mr. Xu, you sang 5 songs in a row at the Golden Melody Awards, with different styles and different singing tones, it was so amazing, the children heard that you were coming early in the morning, and they were excited to gather in front of the classroom, and asked Mr. Xu to give a lesson to these children who like to sing." β
"Mr. Li is so polite, I like children very much." Xu Chen wanted to complain.
Li Weixiang said that to this extent, he had no room to refuse, fortunately, the class was very simple.
Arrived at the classroom.
The huge classroom was full of children, the age was big and young, the small one was just piano tall, the big middle school student, Xu Chen had sharp eyes, and when he saw Sun Yanzi in the crowd, he smiled with big white teeth, looking naΓ―ve and cute.
"Hello classmates." Xu Chen is no stranger to classes.
"Xu Chen! Xu Chen! β
The class erupted in a loud scream, as if it was about to tear off the roof.
For the children of the Conservatory, Xu Chen is too awesome!
can go to the Golden Melody Awards Gala and win the award, and at the same time, he can seamlessly sing the songs of Andy Lau, Zhang Huimei, and the princess, and the level of interpretation is not low.
Singing, lyrics, and songs, hexagonal invincible warriors!
Many children's goal in the singing world is to describe Xu Chen! I hope to be like him and become an excellent singer!
"Students, in this class, I don't talk about singing, I don't talk about creation, and I don't talk about singing." Xu Chen understands this group of children very well.
Many years ago, like them, he wanted to make a name for himself in the music world, wanted to sing his own songs, and thought a lot of things......
But before he was reborn, he had the world's most powerful conservatory education background, and he had paid countless hard work and sweat, and in the end he could only say: "Big brother is awesome!" Thank you Big Brother Carnival, Big Brother I'll sing you a community! β
Ideal and reality are the hottest iron and the coldest, icy winter, and sooner or later it will be cold!
Xu Chen took the chalk and wrote on the blackboard: "Love! β
Even if you can't be a singer or stand on the stage, you can't sing!
Many people have lost the opportunity to sing, but they have not lost their voices, Xu Chen's class is called love, regardless of grades, identity, status, and singing!
Outside the classroom.
Zhou Jianbin and Li Weixiang stared at the two words on the blackboard, and sighed deeply, thousands of troops and single-plank bridges, who said that failure is not a hero, and they can also choose to be their own heroes!
"Mr. Xu has a heart, Lao Zhou, to be honest, I didn't expect Mr. Xu to be able to tell the children this." Li Weixiang sighed.
Xu Chen is full of spirits, talking about achievements, achievements, rapping, anything is fine, after all, he succeeded!
But he told the children, if they don't succeed, do they have to give up singing?
A very humble and sincere person.
"I didn't expect Mr. Xu to feel this way." Zhou Jianbin looked away.
Staring at Sun Yanzi in the crowd, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but hook a smile, the world said that I am Zhou Adou, nonsense, I have Xu Chen in front of me, and Sun Yanzi in the back, Warner will be invincible.
Poor Zhou Jianbin couldn't have imagined that the invincible Warner would one day abandon him mercilessly!
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Midday.
The children in the classroom were withdrawn, the sunlight was shining through the gaps in the leaves, and the ground was printed with dots of light the size of copper coins.
Xu Chen lazily lay on the desk, chatted on the keyboard, and replied to Zhang Huimei's message: "Whew~ You're a puppy, little sister, you work hard, by the way, call Brother Chen, I'll help you beat Coco Li, and beat her album wow wow scream!" β
In the next text message, Xu Chen lazily buttoned the words: "Sister Concubine, I'm so tired, it's too hard to make money!" β
The mobile phone buzzed, and the concubine text message replied quickly: "How tired are you?" β
"......" Xu Chen wanted to complain, don't you want to be so serious! Hehe smiled and replied: "I'm tired to the extent of kidney deficiency!" β
"Really? It's terrible, my mom said that goji berries are very effective, you should try it quickly!!!! β
Hey, woman, if you threaten your happiness, you're going to be energetic, right, Xu Chen was about to reply to the message, and the text message came in again: "I went to record the show, this Tao Jingying is a good eight woman, trembling~"
Boring.
Xu Chen sighed, his chin slammed on the table, the sun was lazy, and he continued to send a message to Zhou Huimin: "Sister Huimin, I won the Best Performing Male Singer Award in Singapore, is it very powerful, forked waist!" β
Canada has a time difference, and at this point Zhou Huimin may have taken a bath.
"Mr. Xu~" Zhou Jianbin appeared at the door of the classroom with Sun Yanzi.
