They say they were shocked, but in fact, many people had expected "Meet" to reach the top, because the song's momentum was so strong, the downloads were rising day by day, and there were signs of it reaching the top a few days ago. .
But why Chen Xueqi?
A singer who was hidden by the company, without any publicity resources or any exposure, the new song took only nine days to top the new song chart. This is not unprecedented in the entertainment industry, but it is definitely unprecedented.
It makes no sense.
This is why the industry is stunned.
Hua Yi was dumbfounded.
Cheng Kun was furious in his office and smashed cups one after another.
He clearly ordered Huayi to push many announcements for Chen Xueqi and cancel many of Chen Xueqi's endorsements. The reason was that Chen Xueqi was not suitable for work due to personal reasons, but no one in the industry knew that Huayi was hiding Chen Xueqi. However, now that Chen Xueqi has topped the new song list, where will Huayi's face go? Where should he put his face?
"Check! Check for me the recent activities of Guo Hong and Chen Xueqi. I want to know who this Xiangbei is!" Cheng Kun said angrily. .
In addition to Huayi, many entertainment companies in the industry are also investigating Xiangbei. Because everyone knows that if Xiangbei hadn't composed the song "Meet" for Chen Xueqi, it would have been impossible for Chen Xueqi to top the new song list.
Huayi's hiding effect on Chen Xueqi is good, otherwise "Meet" would not have been ranked so low on the new song list at the beginning. It’s over 50. A song that could reach the top of the new song chart started ranking outside the 50s, and the number of downloads on the first day was only a pitiful 80,000. Who would dare to believe it?
But "Meet" is "Meet". This song was popular all over the country in another time and space, and its lethality in this time and space is equally astonishing. So what if there is no advance publicity? What if there are no recommended resources for music platforms? When a song can make fans feel dissatisfied with its achievements and spontaneously forward and promote it, the song is already invincible.
The person who is more invincible is naturally the person who composed the song "Meet", so the industry is investigating Xiangbei and wants to recruit Xiangbei.
Unfortunately, their investigation is doomed to be in vain. Xiangbei is just a pseudonym randomly chosen by Wang Xuan, and it has only appeared once. Who can find out?
Many people gave up, but Huayi didn't give up and called Guo Hong over for questioning.
Cheng Kun wanted to find out who Xiang Bei was from Guo Hong. The problem was that now that Guo Hong had the intention of leaving Huayi, how could he possibly tell Cheng Kun who Xiang Bei was? Another thing, except for Zhang Zheng, even she didn't know the specific identity of Xiang Bei, so she couldn't reveal it even if she wanted to.
The result was naturally nothing.
On the contrary, the gap between Hua Yi and Guo Hong deepened.
There is no candidate to replace Guo Hong for the time being, otherwise Hua Yilian would immediately switch to Guo Hong.
Cai Jiajia was a little dumbfounded when she saw that the ranking of her new song suddenly changed from third to fourth, especially when it was Chen Xueqi who edged her out... No, Chen Xueqi not only edged her out, she clearly climbed to the top, right?
But why?
Why is it that after she has put in so much effort, Chen Xueqi still dominates the new song charts?
Why did Guo Hong not give up on Chen Xueqi even though she was already hidden, and found a composer like Xiang Bei to compose music for her?
I feel like Chen Xueqi is like God's beloved child. She needs good looks and talent, and there are so many people looking towards her.
Cai Jiajia's eyes were red with jealousy. Another thing that makes Cai Jiajia feel very bad is that not long ago, she was inexplicably canceled from the opening song of the music festival, and she didn't even know who would replace her.
...
Having said that, while the domestic new song charts are in full swing, on the other side of Blue Star, Dengcheng, Wang Xuan is also working hard for the Global Music Awards.
The Global Music Awards ceremony is on the 8th, but starting from the 1st, the promoted works will have to canvass for their respective votes.
The so-called canvassing, to put it bluntly, is competition PK. The promoted contestants compete on-site to canvass votes for their respective works, and to solicit votes from fans, judges and media.
The 1st to 5th is the time to canvass votes, but it does not mean that every work has a few days of canvassing time. In reality, canvassing is a one-time event, performed or sung live only once.
For example, the time for canvassing votes for the Pure Music Awards is scheduled on the 5th. Then Wang Xuan and the others' canvassing time is only on the 5th, and it is limited to pure music performances. And numbers 1 to 4 can be rehearsed.
International awards such as the Global Music Awards are of a very high standard, and all soundtracks are performed by live bands. Something would go wrong, and there must be some rehearsals. This is why Wang Xuan and the others arrived at the scene so early.
After several days of rehearsals, Wang Xuan and Tianyu's musicians have become very good at cooperating with each other.
Wang Xuan has already passed the other seven works that have been promoted at the same time as "Fairy Sword". To be honest, in terms of quality, "Fairy Sword" has a good chance of winning, but Wang Xuan doesn't have high hopes. , again, it is too difficult for Chinese musicians to win international awards such as the Global Music Awards, unless a miracle happens.
Will there be a miracle?
The answer is yes. Moreover, this miracle was planted by Wang Xuan unintentionally.
On the 5th, during the canvassing session, Wang Xuan appeared fifth.
The original process was supposed to be for Wang Xuan and Tianyu musicians to perform on stage, and then the judges would comment, and then the judges, media, and fans would vote in turn. As a result, the scene was boiling before Wang Xuan came on stage and started playing.
Randall, Hamel and several international musicians who were also judges jumped with excitement.
The media at the scene were also very excited.
Many fans also raised their arms and exclaimed.
"It's him!"
"Found it, the author of "MARIAGE D'AMOUR" has finally been found."
Many people were very pleasantly surprised. To use an old Chinese proverb, it was impossible to find anything without wearing iron shoes, and it took no effort to get it.
Since the mysterious musician from China played the song "Dream Wedding" at the concert, countless pianists and musicians have gathered in Lantern City. While studying "Dream Wedding", they also Find the author of "Dream Wedding".
In the past few days, the media, many judges including Randall, and many fans have almost searched the entire Light City, but they still can't find the mysterious musician from China.
Just when countless people gave up, the Chinese musician unexpectedly appeared. How could Randall and others not be excited?
"Yes. I should have thought of it a long time ago. How could a Chinese musician who can compose a classic piano piece like "MARIAGE D'AMOUR" be an unknown person? The presence of such a musician in the Light City coincides with the Global Music Awards During the awards ceremony, there will definitely be a song shortlisted for the Global Music Awards."
After meeting the author of "MARIAGE D'AMOUR" at the scene, Randall and others really wanted to go on stage to chat with Wang Xuan. The media organizations at the scene also wanted to go on stage to interview Wang Xuan. Unfortunately, it was the canvassing session for the Global Music Awards. Randall and others could only restrain themselves and resist the urge to go on stage.
"Now I'm looking forward to the song Mr. Wang Xuan will bring to us later. It seems to be called "The Romance of the Sword", right? By the way, has anyone heard of Mr. Wang Xuan's song?"
"I've heard it, but I didn't listen carefully because I found out that the music was composed by a Chinese."
"Me too. To be honest, I didn't think highly of Chinese musicians before. I once thought that China was a desert of music and could not breed great music or great musicians. But Mr. Wang Xuan changed my view of China. A view of music.”
"Indeed, Mr. Wang Xuan was born on the musical soil of China, and Mr. Wang Xuan composed piano music such as "MARIAGE D'AMOUR" that can become a classic handed down from generation to generation. How can such a country be a desert of music? "
"Anyway, I am very much looking forward to this piece by Mr. Wang Xuan. A piece composed by a great musician like Mr. Wang Xuan must not be much different," someone said.
did you see it?
How serious is the prejudice of Western musicians against Chinese musicians?
If there are no accidents, it will be really difficult for "Fairy Sword" to win an award. After people knew that this piece of music was composed by a Chinese musician, they were not interested in listening to it, and they didn't even pay attention to it. How could they know whether the piece of music was good or bad?
The turning point came when Wang Xuan played the song "Dream Wedding" at the concert. After being studied by many internationally renowned pianists and musicians, this piece has been defined as a classic piano piece handed down from generation to generation, ranking among the top ten piano pieces in the world.
Wang Xuan's ability to create this classic that has been handed down from generation to generation is enough to make the musicians, media, and fans at the scene put aside their prejudices and listen carefully to Wang Xuan's performance of "Fairy Sword", which was shortlisted for the Pure Music Award at the Global Music Awards.
Not only that, "Dream Wedding" actually has a great addition to "Fairy Sword". In the past, Western media, fans, and musicians were so prejudiced against Chinese people, but now "Dream Wedding" has greatly added to "Fairy Sword".
After all, they are all the same author. "Dream Wedding" is hailed as a classic that has been handed down from generation to generation. How bad is "Legend of Sword"?
It's a hint of preconception.
Of course, "Fairy Sword" is not bad to begin with. So "Fairy Sword" broke through and won the award, harvesting almost all the votes from the judges and media at the scene, and most of the votes from the fans at the scene were also harvested.
This scene made Wang Xuan's competitors dumbfounded.
Yamamoto Taro shook his head, knowing it was a bit unfair. But he was also convinced of the defeat.
Why are you not convinced?
If you're not convinced, why don't you compose a piano piece like "MARIAGE D'AMOUR" that will be handed down from generation to generation? Didn’t you see that after the canvassing session was over, Wang Xuan was already surrounded by countless people?
And among those who surrounded Wang Xuan, which one was not a well-known figure? Stamping his feet, the international music world was shocked.
In fact, apart from Li Tao and the Tianyu musicians, the most excited people at the scene were the hundreds of fans from China. They saw "Fairy Sword" win the award with their own eyes, and saw Wang Xuan become the focus of the audience. It felt like a dream.
It should be noted that among those who surrounded Wang Xuan, there were many internationally regarded as great musicians, but at this moment they seemed to be eclipsed in front of Wang Xuan.
so amazing!
As expected, Wang Xuan's YYDS is invincible even abroad.
In fact, Wang Xuan was originally surprised that "Legend of Sword" won the award, but after Randall and others surrounded him, and after some exchanges, he realized that the reason was actually due to the song he played by mistake at the concert. That song "Dream Wedding".
Wang Xuan was a little dumbfounded by this.
He had been worrying about how to break the situation for a long time, but he never had a clue. Who would have thought that a piece of music played at the concert would actually help him overcome the difficulty?
"Mr. Wang Xuan, is the song "MARIAGE D'AMOUR" your original creation?" Randall asked after some introductions and after both parties knew their identity information.
"That's right." Wang Xuan nodded.
"Dream Wedding" was a collaboration between Paul Seneville and Oliver Toussaint in another time and space, but isn't this time and space without these two original authors? This piece of music was produced by Wang Xuan in this time and space, so it is naturally regarded as Wang Xuan's work. You can't just jump out of a rock, right?
"This song is great. How did you create it?" asked a well-known media person in charge.
"The creative inspiration came from a story I accidentally read." Wang Xuan said, and then told the story in the song in detail.
"Wow! So that's it. No wonder it's called "MARIAGE D'AMOUR"."
After that, Wang Xuan answered many questions and communicated with Randall and others for a long time. It can be said that he spent the whole day dealing with these musicians and the media. If Wang Xuan had not exchanged contact information with Randall and others and agreed to occasionally participate in international concerts, Wang Xuan would still be able to escape.
Wang Xuan actually doesn't care about international concerts. He has no plans to develop abroad or become a world-class musician. He can go to international concerts if he wants to. If he doesn't want to go, he can just find an excuse to postpone it. Since the legs are on his feet, can Randall and others tie him up?
After returning to the hotel, Wang Xuan let out a long sigh.
Dealing with these people is as tiring as playing ten songs. Fortunately, I can finally have a good sleep. It's only the 5th now, and the awards ceremony is on the 8th, which means Wang Xuan has two or three days of free time.
Feeling comfortable.
With so many Chinese fans present, the news that "Fairy Sword" won the award was naturally hard to hide. When the news spread to China, Chinese fans were excited, the industry was excited, and countless people were excited.
"Breaking news! "Fairy Sword" composed by Tianyu's top composer Wang Xuan successfully won the Pure Music Performance Award at the Global Music Awards. Yes, you read it right, this time it was not a finalist, but an award. Wang Xuan The teacher won the award, "Fairy Sword" won the award, and successfully won the Pure Music Award at the Global Music Awards. This is the first time for us Chinese to win the International Music Award, and it is also the first breakthrough for our Chinese music in the international music industry. Cheers, Cheer with all your heart!
Congratulations to Teacher Wang Xuan, congratulations to "Fairy Sword", and sincerely hope that our Chinese music can achieve better results in the international music industry in the future. "Tianyu's boss Lu Tianyu was very excited and asked the publicity department to edit the news and publish it on Tianyu's official Weibo account.
He himself has made serious preparations for the listing of Tianyu, and plans to take advantage of this popularity to list Tianyu in Hong Kong.
Anyway, Lu Tianyu was very happy and found Zhu Xu: "Director Zhu, look, didn't "Legend of Sword" win an award? I said, as long as you try, how can you not have a chance?"
Zhu Xu sighed and said nothing.
