(This is some information, as well as some personal items. It takes stock of the so-called 'prosperity' of the Chinese music scene on earth, as well as some opinions on Douyin's original music. Of course, there is also a plot. It is mainly based on information. If you don't like it, you don't have to order it.)
…………
Of course, Zhao Ziluo does not need to carry his own luggage.
There were a lot of secretaries and assistants willing to serve him. Because of the special nature of Red Star, Liu Fei'er couldn't follow him, so he hired a new assistant at will.
For no other reason than because the other party's network ID was Fat Tiger, it brought back some memories for him.
After the other party learned about his employer, the entire brokerage company exploded!
The next day, the boss personally brought people over to get familiar with them and left after giving many instructions.
There are not many people in Red Star Academy, with a total of about 400 students, and only about 100 are selected by government departments every year.
Because there are not many people, the accommodation conditions are very good. Students basically have a single room per person.
Since there are many leading cadres here, there are showers and toilets in the single rooms. Don't let other colleges envy you.
And for quasi-cadres like Zhao Ziluo who are studying, the accommodation conditions are better. The single room is not even a wire bed, but a custom-made 1.8-meter bed on the market.
The new assistant Niu Junda was very agile and quickly helped him put away his luggage.
The room had been tidied up before he arrived, and some green plants were even placed. Just when he was about to get familiar with the campus, the door knocked a few times and was gently pushed open.
"Director Zhao, it's really you!"
"Teacher Kong Fang, you are really here!"
"I'm glad to meet you. I've long heard that Teacher Kong Fang is coming to study. I've long wanted to meet him."
Several middle-aged men and women appeared at the door. At first glance, they were all familiar faces.
Xu Lizhen smiled and said: "Your song "Little River Flowing Water" made me famous. Come on, let me introduce it to you."
She first looked at the men: "This is my brother, Xiao Zhao. Do you all know him?"
Zhao Ziluo felt a little warm in his heart. This was because Xu Lizhen used her position to guarantee him, fearing that he would suffer a loss and protecting him.
It might be useless, but he accepted the favor.
"Xiao Zhao, this is Qu Minghang, director of the Yuhang Provincial Department of Culture and Entertainment. Just call me Brother Qu."
Qu Minghang laughed and shook hands: "We know each other, we've known each other for a long time!"
"I heard about it when I bought "The Legend of Zhen Huan" a few years ago. I have seen it several times at the Cultural and Entertainment Association meetings in the past few years, but we just didn't talk. We need to communicate more this time!"
The two hands clasped together enthusiastically and shook vigorously.
"This is the deputy director of the Xinzhou Propaganda Department, Zhang Zhouyuan, Brother Zhang."
"Hi!" Before Zhao Ziluo could say anything, Zhang Zhouyuan held his hand and shook it vigorously.
"Director Zhao, Xinzhou and Jincheng are brothers! You can't favor one over the other!"
"We have agreed that the second stop of "A Bite of China" will be Xinzhou! We are looking forward to the stars and the moon!"
Then came the director of Mango Channel, the director of a certain city's tourism bureau... everyone was very enthusiastic.
They clearly understand the value and status of a 23-year-old artist.
Niu Junda, who was retreating next to him, was blushing and his heart was beating like a drum.
These people...when did the company not hold up like a grandpa?
But no one can take advantage of an artist!
That's a recognition.
Recognizing Zhao Ziluo's status is equivalent to being one of them!
You must do your best! Try to stay with the teacher!
Hmm... I don’t know enough about teachers. What is the teacher’s biological clock like? What flavor do you like? What style of clothes do you like?
You must do your homework carefully when you go back!
After everyone finished greetings, Zhang Zhouyuan said with a smile: "As soon as Xiao Zhao comes, I will make a meal so that we can get familiar with each other!"
There was no room for shirk, so everyone made an appointment and headed to the restaurant. Naturally, many fans came to ask for autographs on the road.
Fortunately, this is a college and everyone is more reserved.
If I were outside, I'm afraid the traffic would have been controlled already!
Red Star College has a special status. The school restaurant is really cheap and good-quality, and the decoration is very grand!
Several people walked into a private room. After drinking for three rounds and enjoying the five dishes, Qu Minghang smiled and said, "Is Xiao Zhao planning to run for vice chairman?"
Zhao Ziluo smiled and said: "It's just an idea. I'm working hard, but I will go wherever the country needs to move."
Zhang Zhouyuan immediately said: "Then our Xinzhou Station doesn't have a chance?"
"Hey, Brother Zhang, are you cursing Xiao Zhao that he won't be able to run?"
"Haha...punish yourself with a drink, punish yourself with a drink."
After a little joking, Mango Station Director Tong Yun said curiously: "Teacher Zhao, actually I have always been confused."
"Why do you insist on competing for the vice chairman position this time?"
The wine table fell silent.
Not just him, everyone is interested in this issue.
With Zhao Ziluo's musical attainments, he can count the money at two concerts a year.
Praise whoever you want, it's no exaggeration to have the Midas touch!
Didn’t you see he never attended a music award show?
But the invitation letter of the highest standard from the Chinese Musicians Association was sent to his house every time there was a music ceremony - no matter what the ceremony was!
His status in the Chinese music scene cannot be surpassed!
But why do we have to take this rugged road?
Zhao Ziluo pondered for a moment, with many thoughts passing through his mind, and finally said: "Initially, I really just wanted to make money."
"But when money becomes a number, people will definitely have higher goals."
He didn't say that he had experienced an era when the Chinese music scene was hung up and beaten.
The 1980s and 1990s were considered the most glorious period of the Chinese music scene.
But real musicians know how false the glory at that time was.
Just make a list.
Let’s talk about South Korea first.
The 1998 Asian financial crisis directly caused South Korea to go bankrupt.
In order to get out of the quagmire, the new South Korean government has formulated a culture-centered strategy - this is also the basis for the unprecedented development of South Korea's entertainment industry and e-sports!
As a small country and a peninsular country with poor resources, they do not have many road options.
They really treat the entertainment industry and e-sports as if they were China’s aerospace industry and shipbuilding industry! And it took the whole country to attack!
There is a joke among Chinese music fans: they copied Japan in the 1980s, Europe and America before 1995, and South Korea after 1995.
Cyndi Wang’s classic song, and later the super hero that made him famous in "Sister Lang" - "Love You".
A cover of "Listen to My Story" by Korean girl group pApAYA.
Zhao Ziluo thinks that Cyndi Wang sang this song in her own style and will definitely not lose to the original singer! The lyrics and arrangement are also a stroke of genius, completely deviating from the style of the original singer.
Her representative song "hoNEY" is a cover of "SummER dANcE" by Korean queen Lee Jung-hyun.
Famous song: "The One I Loved for the First Time" is a cover of "the day you went away" by the Norwegian girl group m2m.
Next, there is the "Chinese professional" Xinhua Band.
Zhao Ziluo has a general feeling about this band because... none of their representative songs are original!
"I'll Love You Even to Death" is a cover of Korean singer Park Wan-kyu's song "Thousand Years of Love" released in 1999.
Moreover, Zhao felt that Ashin, who had just debuted, could not perform this song as perfectly as Park Wankyu. (Well... the author is also someone who has followed the Korean wave generation group...)
Next is the representative song "Li Ge" by Shin Band.
A cover of the song "Love Song" by Korean singer Kim Momo in 1999.
In this song, Zhao Ziluo admitted that Xin sang it with his own taste.
But the original singer Jin Momo's husky voice is also very impressive!
It can be said that the original singer and the cover are equal.
Maybe some friends will say, isn't there also "Broad Sea and Sky"?
Sorry, this song is also a cover.
Zhao Huili (wAx), the original singer of "Reason for Leaving Me" released in 2003.
The cover of this song is quite good, but the original sung is also top-notch, and the two are neck and neck!
Granted, there are some other, less famous songs that Xin has that are not covers.
But his five most famous songs are all covers!
Only then, like Wilber Pan, did he gain the reputation of "professional Chinese user".
Later, on a variety show, Xin complained on the spot, asking why mainland music programs are still singing old songs from 20 years ago, and why they are so powerful but don't create originals?
At that time, Zhao Ziluo wanted to roll his eyes.
Anyone can say this, but not believe it!
Because he started his career as a cover singer himself, how could he not know how profitable cover music can be?
A song that has been verified by the market only needs to be rewritten with lyrics to satisfy the mainland market where the Internet is underdeveloped. Why should it be original?
Thankless.
Oh, if you, Ashin, can do it, why can’t others do it? Is he about to step out and become a moral role model?
This is also the fundamental reason why Ashin was attacked by many people after he said this.
Hey, the monk touched it, but you, Ah Q, just can’t touch it.
Not to mention Wilber Pan, who is also a member of the Chinese language industry. All of his famous songs are covers!
What about "Happy Worship" and "Have to Love".
In other words, they have reaped the benefits of the underdeveloped Internet network in mainland China at the beginning of the century.
So, don’t laugh at Pang Long’s “Two Butterflies” and what about “Mouse Loves Rice”?
Others are really original!
Let out a roar from the bottom of the Chinese music scene!
Please respect these voices.
In that era, these voices were very humble and were only popular in text messages and did not enter the so-called "elegant hall". However, it was really not easy to survive in the "Golden Age of Chinese Songs" where everyone was mixed.
Then put it.
Have you heard of Su Huilun's masterpiece "Duck"?
Let's listen to "I Am Me" released by the girl group JUJUcLUb in 1996?
Sound familiar?
But for this song, I have to say that Su Huilun’s original singer is a hit.
Many people must have heard of "My Hair is Messy" by "Singing God" Jacky Cheung and King Zhang in 1998.
Go listen to "hoNEY" by "Korean Music God" JYp?
Hmm...another original song that has been blown away by its cover, Zhang Tianwang is still awesome...
As for the story that has to be told between Sammi Cheng's "Easy" and Lee Jung-hyun's "Crazy", everyone knows it.
oh? Don’t know which song “Crazy” is?
That's simple.
o No K, o No K, dinosaur resists wolf, resists wolf, dinosaur resists wolf, resists wolf~~
Luo Xxiang's "Gray Space" became popular along with the popular idol drama "Douyu" in the 1990s.
Big S, who was divorced some time ago, plays the heroine. The hero is Guo Pinchao, who has just transitioned from a model to an actor. Later, Guo also went north to make money and starred in popular works such as "Jiang Ye" and "Three Lives Three Worlds: The Pillow Book".
The original sung of this song is "Loving You More and More" by Korean singer Han Sungmin.
(I originally thought I could finish the inventory, but there are some personal items mixed in, so it looks like there will be another chapter)
(Mainly, I want to tell you some stories about the golden age of the Chinese music scene from the perspective of the author. I am not denying it, but I feel that it has been exaggerated. There was a lot of original music at that time that was very exciting. But some of the songs that everyone is familiar with, a large part of them Original singers from Korea, Japan, Europe and the United States)
(The sense of that era comes from the author’s self-understanding after being exposed to more things in this area. If you don’t agree, please keep your own opinions and don’t criticize)
