Chapter 236 Various Award Nominations

The Golden Melody Awards in this world is undoubtedly one of the largest and most influential music awards in the Chinese music scene. It has a very long history, and each award ceremony is held around May or June every year.

The "China Golden Melody Award" is a competition award provided by China to promote the Chinese music industry and to outstanding Chinese singers and outstanding workers. It has rewarded many outstanding Chinese singers and outstanding music workers and has become the highest honor indicator in the Chinese music scene. It has been of great help and encouragement to Chinese music.

It, along with the China Music Chart and the Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs Awards, are the three most prestigious pop music awards.

Among these three awards, in terms of professional authority, the "China Golden Melody Award" should be the undisputed number one!

The China Music Chart, on the contrary, places more emphasis on singers' popularity, album sales, influence, etc.

The China Music Chart awards ceremony is usually held in December every year.

As for Hong Kong’s “Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs Awards Ceremony”, it is held in January every year.

After the awards ceremony for the "Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs Awards" in January this year was announced, it was met with a lot of criticism from netizens...

The reason, of course, is that Gu Qingge, a new singer who emerged out of nowhere and pioneered the Chinese and ancient style trends, didn't even get a single award nomination!

This is really outrageous. This pop music award from Hong Kong seems to have completely ignored Gu Qingge...

Netizens' complaints did not change the "Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs Awards Ceremony"'s usual style, which is to prefer Cantonese songs and at the same time favor singers from Hong Kong.

In fact, it has always appeared serious and conservative, and its award-winning results have been relatively stable.

Therefore, apart from the Newcomer Award, most of the singers who received awards at the Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs Awards are singers who have been famous for a long time and have a great reputation. Only a few rising stars are fortunate enough to be recognized.

The winner of the "Newcomer Award" at this year's "Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs Awards Ceremony" is a female singer from Hong Kong named Qiu Ziyue.

After the result came out, netizens were completely confused.

"Who is Qiu Ziyue? What songs has she sung?"

"She seems to have released a Cantonese album, which sold quite well. She's a very promising new singer in the Hong Kong music scene."

"I've never heard of it. Is this Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs Awards Ceremony a joke?"

"I went to Yinyueyun specifically to listen to Qiu Ziyue's Cantonese songs, and I felt they were pretty average. Their paid downloads were also very low. She's not even worthy of being compared to the talented Gu!"

"I never expected that the Best New Singer Award wouldn't go to the talented Gu."

"The most outrageous thing is that Gu Qingge didn't even get a nomination. Is this award really authoritative?"

"It seems like there's an unwritten rule for this award: artists who haven't released an album or a full-length aren't considered singers..."

"Huh? What era is this? There are still many singers who only release singles without releasing albums. But this award treats them as internet singers and excludes them from the award scope?"

"Haha, the number of Chinese and ancient style songs that the talented lady Gu has amassed could have filled several albums long ago, but she just didn't do that. She has always disliked formalism."

"I've seen through it all a long time ago. Why is this Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs Awards becoming increasingly lame and attracting less and less attention? Its bias is too obvious. I suggest they just change the name!"

"This award is rotten. I won't pay attention to it anymore. It should be eliminated from the three major pop music awards."

…

All in all, the "Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs Awards Ceremony" in January this year caused a big joke.

At that time, there was a reporter who wanted to interview Gu Qingge and ask her what she thought about the "Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs Awards Ceremony", one of the three major awards in the pop music scene.

Unfortunately, the reporters did not interview Gu Qingge, who had become a lazy person and only wanted to take a winter vacation.

In fact, Gu Qingge herself was not even aware of the existence of such an award, and she took it quite lightly.

But at that time, because Gu Qingge and her Queen band had a hit song "Super Star", and the song became popular all over the country, some marketing accounts started making up stories.

They said that this song "Super Star" is Gu Qingge's response to the music award "Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs Awards Ceremony"!

Gu Qingge doesn't need to prove herself by winning this award. She has already proved herself through her songs that are widely sung and have a high number of paid downloads.

She is the real super star!

The story made up by this marketing account has been widely circulated. Many people believe it and say that the talented Gu is so handsome and so cool that she doesn't care about missing the award and just responds with her work.

Anyway, if the "Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs Awards Ceremony" does not give Gu Qingge an award, it will be its loss and it will make everyone look like a joke.

The predicament encountered by the "Top Ten Chinese Golden Melody Awards Ceremony" was naturally noticed by the organizers of the "China Golden Melody Awards", and they will definitely not make the same mistake.

Regardless of whether Gu Qingge can win the award in the end, the nomination must be given, and the nominated singer must perform at the "China Golden Melody Awards" ceremony.

As long as Gu Qingge is there, the ratings of the award ceremony can be guaranteed.

In fact, the judges of the "Huaguo Golden Melody Awards" also admired Gu Qingge. After all, she is a superstar in the Chinese music scene and a graduate of "Huaxia University of the Arts". This makes her one of our own! It's just that this talented woman Gu didn't major in music, but in acting, which is quite interesting.

And since your "Top Ten Chinese Golden Melody Awards Ceremony" is practicing local protectionism and promoting that new Hong Kong singer Qiu Ziyue, don't blame me, the "China Golden Melody Awards", for being too generous!

The organizer of the "China Golden Melody Awards" is very smart. It knows what to do to make the reputation of this award better, that is to follow the trend and praise the talented Gu Qingge!

So, Gu Qingge, who didn't even get a nomination at the "Top Ten Chinese Golden Melody Awards Ceremony", went crazy in the nominations announced for the "China Golden Melody Awards" this time!

The "China Golden Melody Awards" has more than 20 awards of various sizes, and Gu Qingge has been nominated for eight of the most important awards.

Best Song of the Year Award: Gu Qingge's "Blue and White Porcelain".

Best Composer Award: Gu Qingge's "Blue and White Porcelain".

It is worth mentioning that the leader of Gu Qingge’s black fans, [Remembering Jiangnan], was also nominated for three awards, namely Best Newcomer, Best Song of the Year and Best Arranger Award, [Remembering Jiangnan] "Jiangnan".

Although the number of awards he has won cannot be compared with that of the talented Gu, it is already a remarkable thing to be recognized by the "China Golden Melody Award".

When the nomination list for this year's "China Golden Melody Awards" was announced, the music industry was shocked!

Netizens also exclaimed, "Wow!"

This "China Golden Melody Award" seems to be deliberately embarrassing the "Top Ten Chinese Golden Melody Awards Ceremony" - you don't even give a nomination to the talented lady Gu, so I will give all the important individual award nominations to her!

It’s a pity that Gu Qingge didn’t release an album or shoot an MV, otherwise she would definitely be nominated for more awards!
