Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry

On the evening of February 28, the annual Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs Awards Ceremony was held in the Golden Hall of Tower C of Yanjing Hotel.

Different from previous years, famous musicians and singers from Hong Kong were invited to participate this year, making the ceremony even more eye-catching. No, before the party started, a large number of entertainment reporters were waiting outside the hall and at the entrance of the hotel, waiting for opportunities to find interviewees.

Several heavyweights in the music scene from Xiangjiang are the focus of this interview, as well as Yu Dongqing.

Six of his songs have been shortlisted for this year's top ten hits. How can it not be noticeable?

Today, Yu Dongqing wore a black suit with a white shirt and tie. He drove his private car to the Yanjing Hotel on Chang'an Street, accompanied by his third uncle Yu Hongguang.

Today, Yu Hongguang also made an exception and wore a brand new black suit, white shirt and tie - this was specially bought for him by Yu Dongqing at Xidan Shopping Mall. It was not too expensive, a set of three thousand yuan.

The more than 400 yuan suit he brought was really not suitable for such an occasion. Yu Dongqing was planning to buy him a more expensive one, but the third uncle was unwilling to do so.

As soon as the two got off the car, they were surrounded by reporters, and of course the focus was on Yu Dongqing.

"Mr. Yu, I am a reporter from the Chinese media. Six of the songs you wrote were shortlisted for this year's top ten Chinese hits, creating a historical record. What do you think about this?" A male reporter rushed to Yu Dongqing and held up a microphone. asked.

"I'm honored, thank you."

"Can you predict how many of your songs will be included in the top ten hits?"

"Personally, of course I hope it's all, and of course I'm very happy that a song better than mine can win this honor."

Facing reporters' questioning, Yu Dongqing smiled and took it easy.

"Mr. Yu, I am a reporter from Huangdu TV. I heard that Mr. Xia Wenxi, Mr. Zhang Jiaming and Ms. Wu Jingqi from Xiangjiang were also invited to attend this ceremony. What do you think about this?"

"I very much welcome the arrival of Mr. Xia, Mr. Zhang and Miss Wu from Xiangjiang. It is very meaningful for Xiangjiang and the mainland music scene to communicate with each other. We belong to the same country and should move closer to each other." Yu Dongqing replied .

"But some netizens said that Hong Kong musicians look down on the mainland. This time they came here because of you." A female reporter suddenly asked.

Ah?

Yu Dongqing continued without changing his expression: "First of all, I think there should be no such thing as someone looking down on the other. The mainland and Hong Kong have their own strengths and weaknesses in music, and we should learn from each other. Also, I am not such a proud reporter, so don't give me I am seeking hatred."

Hearing what he said, someone laughed.

Yu Dongqing looked back for her third uncle and found that he had entered the hall and disappeared.

Yu Dongqing had warned him in advance that these reporters sometimes asked tricky and weird questions. If you just said you were not feeling well today and refused to be interviewed, there would be nothing they could do to you.

The third uncle did exactly what he said.

"Zhang Jiaming and Wu Jingqi are here!" I don't know who shouted, and I saw two white BMWs slowly parked on the roadside. First, a few assistant-looking people got out, followed by Zhang Jiaming and Zhang Jiaming in suits and leather shoes. Wu Jingqi, all dressed up, got out of their cars.

Reporters rushed forward and surrounded the two people, and Yu Dongqing's place suddenly became deserted.

Sure enough, the Xiangjiang singer was very popular, but he didn't feel any disappointment and walked towards the lobby on the first floor.

"Mr. Yu"

Yu Dongqing suddenly heard someone calling her from behind. It was a female voice, but the Mandarin was a bit lame, like someone from Xiangjiang.

He slowed down and turned around to realize that it was Wu Jingqi calling him.

"Mr. Yu," Wu Jingqi called again, holding up her long skirt and quickening her pace, followed by two assistants who were a little overwhelmed.

Did she call me?

The two have never met.

Wu Jingqi is 26 years old this year. She is not too old, but she debuted relatively early. She is a queen-level figure in the Hong Kong music scene. She is especially good at singing Cantonese songs. Her voice is silky and graceful, a bit like Lin Yilian's voice in that time and space.

But she looks like the female singer Akina Nakamori from Japan in that time and space. She is so pitiful and pitiful that everyone loves her. She is called a man's dream girl.

Yu Dongqing had no choice but to stop and wait.

"Mr. Yu, I am Wu Jingqi. It is an honor to meet you." Wu Jingqi raised her right hand gracefully.

"Thank you. No introduction is needed. You are a famous singer in Xiangjiang. I have seen you on TV," Yu Dongqing said with a smile, "Welcome to Yanjing."

Yu Dongqing gently shook the opponent's delicate hand like a gentleman and quickly put it down.

"Shall we go in together?" Wu Jingqi invited.

"please."

The two walked into the hall together, surrounded by a large group of reporters taking pictures.

Wu Jingqi was gentle and a little pitiful as usual, and Yu Dongqing looked as usual.

"Mr. Yu, I really like the songs you wrote and appreciate your talent very much."

"Thank you, Miss Wu, the Cantonese songs you sang are very nice, and I like them very much." Yu Dongqing praised sincerely.

"Really?" Wu Jingqi pursed her lips and smiled: "Mr. Yu, I thought you didn't like listening to Cantonese."

"You are wrong, I like listening to Cantonese songs very much." Yu Dongqing told the truth.

It turns out that in that time and space, when he was in college, he loved listening to Cantonese songs including Xu Guanjie, Lin Zixiang, Brother, Principal Tan, Beyond, Priscilla Chan, and Jacky Cheung, and he could sing almost all of them.

For this reason, I even learned Cantonese for a while with a classmate from Guangdong.

"Mr. Yu, I have something to ask of you." Wu Jingqi said again.

"You're welcome, please speak."

"I'm working on a Cantonese song album. I like the song "Love Song 1990" you wrote very much. I want to buy the right to use the song and ask someone to fill in the Cantonese lyrics. Is that okay?"

Yu Dongqing was not surprised by Wu Jingqi's request.

Because in the original time and space, this song "Love Song 1990" originally had a Cantonese version called "Alang Love Song"!

The lyrics are written by Xu Guanjie, a generational singer in Hong Kong's music scene!

The lyrics are also very beautifully written, not inferior to the Mandarin version written by Luo Dayou.

"Mr. Yu, is this okay?" Wu Jingqi asked again.

It seems that the other party really likes her, otherwise she wouldn't have to put down her position to beg for this kind of thing, just let her agent talk about it.

"Okay." Yu Dongqing replied readily.

"Thank you." Wu Jingqi smiled happily.

The two chatted happily, and the reporters behind them were even more excited.

The relationship between the two seems to be close, not like strangers but like friends. Could it be that there is something to be gained?

There must be something to eat!

And it’s a big melon!

Reporters immediately started writing news. There wasn’t much real evidence?

It doesn't matter, there are pictures and the truth, just use it later.

As the saying goes, some people are happy and some are sad. Some people are happy and some are disappointed tonight.

Liu Weici is one of them.

As a first-class songwriter in Mainland China and a frequent guest at the Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs Awards Ceremony, three or four of his own songs are shortlisted every year, but this year there are only two! Far lower than Yu Dongqing.

What made him even more embarrassed was that his shortlisted song "Today is a Good Mood" was not actually released compared to "Hand in hand dance" which was released at the same time.

If the latter had not been selected because of the English song, this song probably would not have been shortlisted, let alone the song "Learning to Meow".

Look, there are obviously many fewer reporters coming to interview him tonight than last year.

He glanced at Yu Dongqing and Wu Jingqi, who were surrounded by reporters not far away, and walked in still smiling.

Besides, Yu Dongqing and Wu Jingqi entered the hall together, and reporters quickly gathered around them. Of course, most of them were directed at Wu Jingqi. The two separated at the right time. Yu Dongqing said a few words and left, heading towards the guest seats.

"Teacher Yu."

Someone called him, Yu Dongqing turned around and saw that it was Zhao Yawen.
