Chapter 221 King! King!

Xu Chen talked about the pros and cons.

Three places and three awards are useless. Yang Guangwei smiled and said, "But what Comrade Xu said makes sense. It is better to have a short pain than a long pain. Instead of holding an award that is dispensable, it is better to be brave and hold an award that will convince people."

Yang Guangwei has spoken.

The remaining big guys naturally cannot veto it. They are all in the circle. They are full of praise for Xu Chen and say that Gu Jianfen and Wang Lipin are so lucky that their disciples are so outstanding!

"No, no, young people need to learn more." Gu Jianfen and Wang Liping were so happy that they couldn't close their mouths. The apprentice was too proud.

The meeting ended.

Xu Chen was going to go out and reminisce with his two mentors.

As a result, the dean of Huaxia Conservatory of Music called him over, with a kind face and a cheerful voice: "Comrade Xiao Xu, I heard from Professor Zhou Wang of our college that Comrade Xiao Xu is going to apply for our college. I sincerely welcome Comrade Xiao Xu's arrival."

"Dean Jin, you are too polite."

This is a real big shot, a very rough big shot. Just take a few of his students, such as XX Yuan, Li Mouyi, and Song Mouying, and you will understand his power.

Especially the first student, he is really talkative.

Xu Chen did not flatter her, but was neither humble nor arrogant: "Teacher Zhou is a master of Guzheng. It is my honor to study with her. I have admired Huaxia Conservatory of Music for a long time. I am really happy that my wish can be realized this time."

"Hahaha, Lao Wang, Ms. Gu, your disciple is really good."

Dean Jin showed great concern for Xu Chen: "Comrade Xiao Xu, if you have any questions about applying for our college, you can contact me for consultation."

With this promise, Xu Chen's admission to Huaxia Conservatory of Music is almost guaranteed.

It's not glorious to be a family with connections~

Xu Chen wanted to get in by himself, so he politely thanked him: "Dean Jin, I've been reviewing my lessons recently. I've made an appointment with Teacher Zhou to see you at Huaxia Conservatory of Music in September."

Dean Jin looked at Xu Chen with a high opinion.

Huaxia Conservatory of Music is one of the two most authoritative music colleges in China. The scores are not low, and there are very high requirements for professional and cultural levels.

He has read Xu Chen's information. He has no educational background. He wants to pass the college entrance examination and enter Huaxia Conservatory of Music in half a year. This goal is difficult.

Young people are ambitious. Dean Jin smiled and said: "Comrade Xu, you and Professor Zhou Wang have made an appointment to meet at Huaxia Conservatory of Music in September. I will also make an appointment with you. Let's meet at Huaxia Conservatory of Music in September."

Xu Chen was in a good mood. What is appearance~

The dean personally took the admission procedures, and the senior and junior students didn't bow down to his trousers!

Farewell to Dean Jin.

Gu Jianfen took the disciples and Wang Liping to the three courts to judge Xu Chen.

With a serious look, she stared at him and asked sternly: "Xiao Chen, what's going on between you and Yuanyuan?"

"Master Gu, I..." Xu Chen was vague. He didn't want to deceive his mentor.

"You, you! You are such a person!" Gu Jianfen was angry and annoyed, and hit Xu Chen's head hard.

The disciple was ambitious and talented. Although he was arrogant and extraordinary in his behavior, he knew the limit and knew how to advance and retreat.

It was a personal emotional issue. Gu Jianfen couldn't help but have a headache. She stared at him and said: "Wang Fei and Yuanyuan are both good girls. If you don't want to miss them, don't let them down again."

"Master Gu, Master Wang, I don't need to." Xu Chen was ashamed.

The reputation of Fei Fei and Yuanyuan had spread to Gu Jianfen's ears. Xu Chen was now a complete [scumbag].

At this time,

Yang Guangwei from CCTV came over and said, "Ms. Gu, Mr. Wang, it seems that I have to delay you for a while. I will borrow your precious apprentice to discuss something."

Gu Jianfen and Wang Liping were so proud that they didn't care about his romantic affairs.

The director of CCTV had to discuss things with his apprentice. This apprentice was too evil!

They all laughed and said, "Director Yang, just take this kid with you. Xiaochen, Gu Gu and I won't wait for you today. After you finish the college entrance examination, we will have a celebration party for you."

Gu Jianfen and Wang Liping were not worried about their apprentice's singing career.

They were most concerned about Xu Chen's music career and hoped that Xu Chen could make outstanding contributions to Chinese music, promote Chinese national musical instruments, and promote Chinese national music to the world stage.

If they wanted to achieve their goals, they would naturally have to contact the music circles in the mainland. The celebration party was to push Xu Chen into the circle. Once he entered the circle, he would burn incense and worship Buddha, and it would be convenient to do things.

Xu Chen respected his two mentors very much. After all, up to now, his mentors' care for him was purely unrewarding.

Bid farewell to the two mentors.

Xu Chen and Yang Guangwei went to the director's office to talk, and things might take a long time to discuss.

Yang Guangwei smiled gently at Zhou Tao: "Xiao Zhou, Comrade Xiao Xu and I may talk for a long time. Let's go to the cafeteria to get Comrade Xiao Xu a meal, and we can talk while eating."

Zhou Tao is on the director's personal list, and he has a number. He praised Xu Chen: "Comrade Xiao Xu, you and your sister are both talented."

Hey~

Sister~

Yang Guangwei had nothing else to do with Xu Chen. He was about to retire, and the [MTV Music Festival] was the last major event in his tenure, and he hoped that he could have a perfect curtain call.

It is very simple for CCTV to hold an award, but it is beyond the capacity of CCTV to hold an authoritative and influential [Chinese Music Festival] that radiates East Asia.

Simply put, CCTV has no face in Hong Kong, Formosa, and Southeast Asia. Even if the award is given to them, they are not willing to come!

Yang Guangwei knew the crux of the matter very well. If he wanted to get this done, he had to have Xu Chen.

Xu Chen is not an outsider, and Yang Guangwei is not polite either. He gestured for Xu Chen to sit down and asked: "Xiao Xu, have you received the invitation letter for the China Youth Championship? The Mainland Golden Melody Award has not been announced yet, but I believe that this award will be there sooner or later. Can It’s hard work, but it’s up to you to cultivate new talents in the mainland music scene.”

"We have enough cultural heritage, but in the new era and new cultural forms, we still have a long way to go."

Yang Guangwei looked sad. He has worked in the cultural field all his life, revolutionized the format of CCTV programs and sealed the coffin. His achievements are great.

When you reach retirement age, you have to raise your head and open your eyes to see the world. Compared with domestic and foreign countries, there is still a long way to go.

Movies and movies can't do it. The box office of a foreign movie "Titanic" is equal to the box office of domestic movies in a year.

Music and music can't do it. The mainland is weak to Hong Kong and Taiwan. But why aren't Hong Kong and Taiwan weak to Japan, South Korea, Europe and the United States?

This backward status quo is a pity for Yang Guangwei, an old comrade and veteran warrior who has been fighting in the cultural field all his life.

Now.

Before retiring, he had the opportunity to solve the regrets of [music]. The old man with gray hair and beard said forcefully: "We have one award for three places this time. The pressure of competition for awards is not small. We must attract singers from Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia. Come to our awards.”

"Xiao Xu, you are a capable person, you should pay more attention to this matter."

As soon as my butt touched the sofa, two big things came crashing down on me, each one becoming more difficult to deal with.

Cultivating new forces in the mainland music scene is what Xu Chen and Shen Lihui are trying to do, but the results are not obvious.

To be honest, Xu Chen is not optimistic about the results. Revitalizing the mainland music scene cannot be solved overnight by promoting a few popular singers. This matter involves the entire industry ecological chain.

We must start with cultivation and incubation.

It is said that singers, like emperors, all have a path to "enlightenment". How to help singers start from beginners, practice, and finally "enlightenment" is the key to revitalizing the mainland music scene!

Xu Chen thought of a talent show, I Am a Singer and Happy Girl, both of which are good.

Time Pictures produces programs, signs contracts with Modern Sky singers, releases albums, Time Music, Time Video displays and monetizes content, and offline music festivals cultivate music soil...

At least stop the appearance of the tailor monster, it's such an insult to the music!

Xu Chen has a lot of ideas. He has to take his time on this matter and go back to the entire "Time Music Five-Year Plan" and strive to build an integrated online and offline music platform in 2003.

Mainland music festivals are equally difficult.

Bearing the brunt of the problem, Xu Chen had to raise his arms and invite the big names in the music circles in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia to come over and sell thin noodles.

Why should people give you thin noodles?

The eternal truth, the big fist is the last word.

After peeling off the cocoon, Yang Guangwei gave Xu Chen some strength!

Xu Chen's new album in June, if its sales can surpass Hong Kong and Taiwan, successfully enter the Japanese and Korean markets, and become the last "Chinese King" in the Chinese pop music scene in the 20th century.

Then, threatening the album's remaining power, it would be logical for him, the leader of the music world, to invite the big guys from Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Southeast Asia's music circles to come to Peking for an alliance!

Xu Chen suddenly felt [stressed out]!

If the album hits the market and loses to Ren Xianqi in the competition for supremacy in the music scene, I am afraid that my own status in the mainland music scene will also be completely defeated!

Just talking about Yang Guangwei, the powerful CCTV director's attitude towards him will never be so respectful and kind again. Negative public opinion is also facing a major reckoning.

There is no chance that he will fall into ruin and become infamous. Moreover, Xu Chen has a bad reputation. The people's tolerance of him is all due to his coquettish and blind record!

To put it simply, Xu Chen is arrogant and arrogant when it comes to trolling people, messing around with men and women, but he is awesome! Who in the mainland music scene is as awesome as him? If not, just shut up!

If you think about it with your toes, if he is no longer awesome, he will be cut into pieces and executed at a very young age, but you will not understand the hatred in the hearts of the mainland music industry!

In this battle, we can only win, not lose!

"Please rest assured, Yang Tai. As a member of the mainland music scene, we have the responsibility to revitalize the mainland music scene!" Xu Chen had no way out.

Just do it and it’s done!

…………

Time flies to late April, it is midsummer in Beiping, and the weather is hot.

Compared to the hot weather, the Chinese pop music scene, where the fight is going on, is extremely hot!

In the mainland market, people's consumption awareness and desire to buy albums have obviously increased.

In 1997, the album sales in the mainland market exceeded 200,000, achieving 4 platinum sales, making him a popular first-line singer in the mainland music scene.

By 1998, just four months had passed.

In the mainland market, there is one singer who has sold more than 600,000 albums, six singers who have sold more than 500,000 albums, and the remaining singers who have sold 200,000 and 300,000 albums no longer dare to claim to be popular.

No wonder, [Contemporary Music Circle] published the latest editorial: "The mainland music scene is replacing the Southeast Asian music scene and becoming a strategic location for Chinese pop singers to compete for every inch of land. The emergence of the MTV Music Festival marks our transition from the stage of lagging behind and being beaten to the stage of competing for supremacy in the music scene. , colleagues in the music industry, we have an unprecedented time and an unprecedented location, and the mainland music scene will definitely replace the Hong Kong music scene and take charge of the Chinese pop music scene! "

The news of the MTV Music Festival is like a shot in the arm, strongly inspiring the mainland music scene, even though the mainland music scene is retreating steadily under the attack of Hong Kong and Taiwan music circles.

Compared with the blind fanaticism of the Mainland music scene, the Baodao music scene has shown its sharpness and truly shows the momentum of taking charge of the Chinese pop music scene.

Just 4 months have passed.

In the Baodao music scene, there are three albums with sales exceeding one million!

Li Wen, the Asian dance queen, has taken over the role of the queen of the Chinese singing world with unparalleled charm.

The commoner queen Xu Huaiyu swept across the Taiwan Strait and three places, becoming a hot favorite and dedicated to becoming a god.

Dance queen Zhang Huimei has resisted Coco Lee's attack in the Southeast Asian market and defended her status as the most Mesozoic sister in Taiwan's music scene.

The three men overwhelmed the Chinese pop music scene and almost suppressed the first quarter of the Chinese pop music scene in 1998.

Time passes to late April, the hottest second quarter, and it is also the golden, five and silver six golden seasons that the Chinese music industry has traditionally competed for hegemony!

Asia's dancing queens, common people's queens, and dancing queens all showed signs of fatigue under the attack of Hong Kong's "four kings" Aaron Kwok, with almost no sign of resistance.

He was pushed and crushed by Aaron Kwok's new album, and he had to declare the end of the album's life and withdraw from the competition for hegemony in the music industry.

certainly.

No one laughs at the vulnerability of Li Wen, Zhang Huimei and Xu Huaiyu. The records of the three of them are all inferior to the seniors in the music industry. The only reason is that Aaron Kwok's new album is too powerful.

The latest promotional news revealed that Aaron Kwok's new album has assembled the top and best lyricists and composers in Hong Kong, with Hong Kong Philharmonic legends Chen Shaoqi and Lin Xi as lyricists, and Yuan Weiren and Li Sirui as composers.

Here are just a few works: Chen Shaoqi’s Obsession, Painting Heart, Song of the Sunset, Yuan Weiren’s Conquest, A Dream, and Li Sirui’s Singapore Music Master~

The album is strong, and the marketing and distribution are equally ridiculously strong!

Sony Greater China is putting all its efforts into the company, even at the cost of cutting off Coco Lee's resources.

The highly praised new album "King" will naturally come to the Chinese pop music scene in late April with the domineering and invincible attitude of "King".

Unprecedented, sales in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Southeast Asia, Mainland China, Japan and South Korea were launched at the same time on May 1.

Aaron Kwok’s new album is announced to be released in May.

Suddenly, the Chinese pop music world was banned from singing in May, and the "Four Kings" Andy Lau and Jacky Cheung all avoided their schedules to avoid unnecessary disasters.

So far.

The Chinese-language pop music scene, which had been at war for the past four months, has become completely clear about the situation.

Aaron Kwok in May!

Xu Chen and Ren Xianqi in June!

Facing the blockade of the [Four Great Kings] Aaron Kwok, the first battle between Xu Chen and Ren Xianqi is the new king versus the old king.

at the same time.

The declining Hong Kong music scene gathers the foundation of Hong Kong's music scene to compete with the powerful rise of the Taiwanese music scene and the mainland music scene in the battle for "fame"!

…………

"Alright~Alright~Call big brother, big brother will help you vent your anger." Xu Chen complained to Zhang Huimei on the phone.

Ruthlessly complained: "It would be great if you can withstand Li Wen's attack in Southeast Asia. You also want to withstand Aaron Kwok's attack. Amei, your bragging skills are getting better and better!"

"Besides, if my album hadn't been released in Southeast Asia, would you have been able to withstand Li Wen's attack? If not, call me big brother and I'll beat Aaron Kwok for you."

"Old Xu, you must be sick." Zhang Huimei rolled her eyes, who is getting better and better at bragging? It's shameless~

Thinking of Aaron Kwok's strength, Zhang Huimei felt lingering fear.

Before Aaron Kwok's album was released, her album sales dropped off a cliff. The reason was very realistic and outrageous: [Save money to buy Aaron Kwok's album]!

That's right~

Just because they had to save money to buy Aaron Kwok's album, the album sales of Coco Lee, Zhang Huimei, and Xu Huaiyu collapsed. When the album is released, there will be no scum left.

Zhang Huimei took a breath of air and sighed: "The [Four Heavenly Kings] are so terrifying!"

result.

Xu Chen still has to compete with Aaron Kwok for hegemony, and also has to fight with Ren Xianqi. Zhang Huimei can't help but worry about Xu Chen: "Old Xu, Aaron Kwok is so strong. I'm not his opponent anyway. What if you lose?"

"Lao Xu, why don't you come to Treasure Island and let's record the song again."

Zhang Huimei muttered: "If you lose, you can't blame me. Anyway, I tried my best!"

"How can I have time to record an album with you?"

The sun was beating down on me, and Xu Chen was filming the MV for [Master Wang]. He hurriedly said to the phone: "No more talk, see you in May. I'm filming the album MV now."

"Wait!" Zhang Huimei shouted on the phone with great interest: "Don't hang up yet, Lao Xu, you really have three wives and four concubines, and you have two wives. Did the princess really agree?"

Zhang Huimei saw news reports about [Little Sanmen] in Baodao, and she almost died of curiosity. In her impression, it was impossible for the princess to accept it~

How outrageous.

"You want to be my third wife." Xu Chentian was shameless and complained mercilessly: "Sorry, ugly rejection!"

"Xu Chen, you are sick, you are so ugly! I am a girl after all, can't I be more polite!" Zhang Huimei bared her teeth and claws. Sometimes she really wanted to kill Xu Chen, she was so bullying~

Why can't I be a mistress?

Thinking that I was not polite enough, Xu Chen coughed and said very politely: "Hello, Ms. Zhang Huimei, your appearance does not match my appearance. I regret to inform you that you did not pass the interview. Please keep up your efforts and try your best." Become a junior as soon as possible!"

That's polite enough. I said you, please!

Xu Chen is so kind.

On the phone, Zhang Huimei was stunned by Xu Chen's unscrupulousness. She paused for 2 seconds, bared her teeth and claws, and roared viciously: "Xu Chen, your uncle, I will kill you..."

Xu Chen hung up the phone decisively, bullied Zhang Huimei, and felt relieved!
