China Entertainment 2000

"..."

Good guy, Qian Jiang called him a good guy after thinking about it carefully.

This slogan was much more energetic than his.

"It has to be you, Ayi."

Qian Jiang took it upon himself to do it. After simulating it in his mind, he slapped his thigh and used it decisively.

As expected of a purple star descended from the sky, isn’t this brain smarter than those idiots?

According to Warner's own news channels and information hinted by Yao Qian, one of the judges this year, Zhouyi has 14 nominations for these 7 awards. How can Zhou Yi regain the glory when he first debuted and win four trophies at once.

"It's almost the same. In the 2001 Golden Melody Awards, I took advantage of the newcomers to win four awards at once. This time, I am relying on foreigners and self-respect."

Facing Qian Jiang's expectations, Zhou Yi seemed very calm.

In 2001, he participated in the Golden Melody Awards for the first time and received six nominations. In the end, he won four awards including Best Album, Best Album Producer, Best Composer and Best Newcomer by virtue of his status as a newcomer and the groundbreaking style of his album. .

Compared with the 2002 Golden Melody Awards, he was shortlisted for a total of 11 nominations for five awards, and finally won two awards for Best Composition and Best Album, plus a Best Video Award.

If you compare the two Golden Melody Awards before and after, you can find that he actually won more awards and more gold in the first one. After all, he can't get the extra Newcomer Award now.

"The Golden Melody Awards has always had a tradition of being a winner, not to mention that my identity is very sensitive to Taiwanese people. Winning three grand awards plus a small video award is almost the theoretical limit.

"But the premise is that we don't do any extra tricks."

Zhou Yi, who was leaning on the sofa, raised his lips with a hint of ridicule.

This year in Taiwan, restrictions on mainland singers have further intensified.

The most typical example is Naying, who was also shortlisted for the diva list. She did not get a permit and could not attend the Golden Melody Awards. Warner could only tell the public that Naying was preparing for a concert and had no time to do anything else;

The album "Civil and Military" released by Hu Yanbing last year has been shortlisted at major awards ceremonies in Hong Kong and Mainland this year, and won many new artist awards and album awards. Only Taiwan has not been shortlisted for any award, and is not eligible for nomination even for the Pheasant Award.

Wang Feng, who plays rock music, became an "underground singer" in Taiwan.

He is more dazzling than Naying, Hu Yanbing, Wang Feng and others. In addition, with his international fame, it is completely impossible without permission, but it is still possible to secretly influence the Golden Melody Awards.

Zhou Yi never doubted the lower limit of that group of people, otherwise further restrictions specifically targeting singers would not have been issued.

Even mainland actors can relax, but only singers are strictly guarded, and the restrictions are getting higher and higher year by year.

Because of the influence of songs and singers, it is relatively easier to spread and be interpreted in depth. The treatment of Tao Zhe's album "Black Willow" in Taiwan is a living example.

Originally, Qian Jiang had tried to win a Golden Melody Award performance for Zhou Yi, but due to Zhou Yi's lawless performance in the United States, God knows what Zhou Yi would do when he performed on stage. After all, the Golden Melody Award could not be held up by his arms and he did not agree.

"They don't dare to go too far with off-board moves. Your current reputation is your best golden body. Besides, don't forget that we still have Yao Qian."

Qian Jiang, who has been paying attention to the Golden Melody Awards, had no choice but to mention the general manager of Virgin Records who likes to advertise fairness and justice.

If there were any special insider issues this year, he would definitely inform Zhou Yi privately——

"Ring ring ring!"

Talk about Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrives.

When Zhou Yi reached out to pick up his cell phone from the coffee table and glanced at the call note, he turned it over so that Qian Jiang could see the name clearly——

Yao Qian.

"Ayi, I'm resigning, please remember to be careful what you say. The best lyrics and music composition may change."

As one of the Dinghai Shenzhen who has been sitting on the Golden Melody Awards jury since 2000, Yao Qian, who specially called Zhou Yi, shocked the two of them with his first words.

What the hell?

Resign?

The two looked at each other, and Qian Jiang's face gradually turned ugly——

On August 1, 2003, as a member of the Taiwan Jury for three consecutive terms, Yao Qian chose to submit his resignation. After the current Golden Melody Awards, he will resign from all positions in the Golden Melody Awards team.

Good news for Virgin Records: Elva Hsiao should also be nominated for the Golden Melody Award in the future;

Bad news for Warners: They will now lose a heavyweight ally in the Golden Melody Awards.

Feeling something was wrong, Qian Jiang immediately began to investigate what was going on. He was busy making phone calls one after another. Zhou Yi turned his attention to Professor Lai on the TV show who seemed to be on his side— —

The index finger of his right hand unconsciously rubbed his chin, with a thoughtful expression between his eyebrows.

The next day, five o'clock in the evening.

The red carpet event of the 14th Taiwan Golden Melody Awards in 2003, which has been constantly tumultuous, officially started at the National Taiwan University Stadium in Taiwan, and fans from all over the world entered the venue in an orderly manner with tickets.

Celebrities appeared one after another in order of celebrity status, amidst the cheers of fans. They walked across the red carpet and left their artistic signatures on the signature board. They also followed the usual rules in the interview session. Zhou Yi did not See something unusual.

"Jie Lun, Jie Lun, how many awards do you think you can win tonight?"

Last year, Jay Chou's "Fantasy" was nominated for a total of ten nominations for five awards. Although in the end he only received the Best Producer as a consolation prize, he became the only one who could win from Zhou Yi who was in his prime. A singer of his generation who stole a golden song trophy.

"How is it possible to know this? I think being nominated is actually a kind of recognition, right? Winning awards is not something I need to consider..."

Because Zhou Yi, the big devil, has been weighing on his head since his debut, Jay Chou, who has successfully won the title of Little Heavenly King this year, still behaves very modestly when facing interviews.

The singer only needs to sing well, and the judges have many things to consider.

"Yanzi, if you have to make a choice, which award do you most want to win tonight?"

"If I had to make a choice, I think it should be the Best Vocal Album Award."

Sun Yanzi, who was wearing a black French retro dress, laughed twice: "Because this award has the most competition, and if I win it, I can show off my power in front of Zhou Yi every day."

"..."

Is the point of your words about showing off your power to Zhou Yi every day?

"Snow friend..."

"headmaster……"

"Book of Changes..."

Since this year’s Golden Melody Awards not only had Hong Kong stars such as Tan Yonglin and Jacky Cheung who rarely appeared in Taiwan choose to attend, but also Japanese diva Nakamori Akina and the famous Korean transgender artist Ha Lixiu came——

It can be said that this is the event with the largest number of Chinese and foreign stars gathered since the event was held, so this red carpet session lasted a bit long.

Starting at five o'clock until the official start of the award ceremony at seven o'clock in the evening,

Zhou Yi's seat is in the second row, first on the left hand side of the steps. Beside him are Jay Chou, Wang Lihong, agent Chen Yixun, Zhang Xueyou, Tan Yonglin and others.

Sun Yanzi also sat in the second row, the first one on the right side of the steps, which happened to be symmetrical with the boys' camp headed by Zhou Yi. Next to her were Liang Jingru, Mok Wenwei, Chen Huilin and others, and in the row of seats behind her were female singers such as Cai Yilin and Xu Huixin.

After receiving Yao Qian's warning to run away, Zhou Yi had already calmed down - it could even be said that he was mentally prepared for the unpopular situation of winning only one award or not winning any award.

But the fact that he was the first best lyricist exceeded his expectations.

Lin Qiuli: "Dark" (singer: Adu);

Fang Wenshan: "Grandpa's Tea" (singer: Jay Chou);

Xiao Huangqi: "You Are My Eyes" (singer: Xiao Huangqi);

Zhouyi: "Mom and Dad", "On the Qingming Rain", "Fireworks Easily Cold".

Zhou Yi, who was one against three in the first award, won the best lyricist for "Mom and Dad" in the announcement of the two presenters Zhang Zhenyue and Yang Naiwen...

?

Zhou Yi frowned slightly——

what's the situation?

Didn’t Yao Qian say that the best lyricist was gone?
