Fang Yang, a struggling bar singer, soul-transferred into a parallel universe where he inherited a dying website and a music academy, graduating from a student who lost both parents. He revived th...
Yang Peng and Qi Lu took turns introducing themselves, and the presentations were quickly completed. In general, Hong Kong Island had two seats, Taiwan had one seat, and the mainland had three seats, which was a fair balance.
Each time someone is introduced, their achievements over the past year are displayed on the big screen. In particular, their nominated representative works are performed live on the screen, giving all the guests attending the event, as well as the viewers in front of the TV and the netizens in the live broadcast room a direct impression. Whether they are a donkey or a horse, let's put them to the test to ensure fairness!
Fang Yang also carefully watched the works of the other five people. He had to say that there were no weaklings who could stand on this stage. Although they could not compare with Fang Yang in terms of quantity, their quality was still remarkable. It was not surprising that a group of outstanding people could emerge from a population of over a billion. Moreover, these people had a well-established tradition and had fought their way out through hard work!
Fang Yang's talent was limited in his previous life, but his predecessor was slightly better. In fact, he was also influenced by his obsession. It is said that only by being extremely passionate can one be extremely skilled in swordsmanship!
When someone becomes so engrossed in something that they neglect sleep and meals, they will inevitably achieve something. Take playing the piano, for example. No matter how little talent you have, after systematic learning, if you practice hundreds or thousands of times a day, even someone without talent can become a decent performer. Haven't you heard the saying, "Heaven rewards diligence"?
Fang Yang's current position is entirely due to the system's gift and the wisdom accumulated over thousands of years on Earth. Some might say that Earth has also undergone thousands of years of historical development and cultural accumulation, but there is one thing: human beings have their limits and there are things beyond their reach!
No matter how strong an individual's abilities are, they cannot compare to the overwhelming impact of an entire planet's culture being poured into them. This is also the meaning of YY novels: the protagonist always needs some kind of halo to surround them, otherwise they would lose their meaning of existence!
After the six finalists finished their introductions, each of them received some supporters, with applause rising and falling. After the introductions, all six were a little nervous, including Fang Yang, who quietly waited for the final results to be announced.
All six artists are quite talented, especially Sheng Kuangping from Tianhua Music. His song "Lost Love," written for pop diva Gigi Lai, has been downloaded over 80 million times in just six months and continues to spread. It is a rare gem among recent songs and has great staying power.
Fang Yang had also heard this song and highly praised it. Both the composition and lyrics were masterpieces. However, as a competitor, Fang Yang was quite confident. As a pinnacle of Chinese style songs, "Blue and White Porcelain" had its own advantages over the love song "Lost Love". Whether it was the composition, lyrics, or downloads, it was enough to crush the other one!
Of course, if it comes down to fame, Fang Yang has no choice but to admit defeat. Sheng Kuangping is a veteran musician with a huge reputation in the industry. Even at Tianhua Music, one of the top music companies in China, he is in a class of his own and holds a superb position.
Queen Gigi Lai is a veteran diva, incomparable to the rising stars. She has countless fans, most of whom are heads of households over thirty years old. She is usually quiet, but when she really gets going, few in the industry dare to challenge her. She is also a regular on the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. She has been in the industry for over twenty years and is still a mainstay in the music scene.
The collaboration between Sheng Kuangping and Gigi Lai has achieved a remarkable effect of 1+1>2, as evidenced by their inclusion in the Best Composer ranking. Moreover, the composer is a renowned composer, the famous Zhang Qisheng in the music industry!
However, Fang Yang was not afraid. Since he had already won the Best Composer award, he was not afraid to fight again in the Lyrics category. Fang Wenshan has won numerous awards throughout his life and has collaborated with almost all the famous singers in Hong Kong and Taiwan. He is even revered as the "Sage of Lyrics"!
Sheng Kuangping, Gigi Lai, and Cheung Kai-sang were seated five or six people apart from Fang Yang. Fang Yang could see the overwhelming fighting spirit in Sheng Kuangping's eyes. Fang Yang pursed his lips and remained calm. He was almost sixty years old, yet he was still so competitive. Was it really necessary?
Seeing Fang Yang sizing up Sheng Kuangping and the others, Zhang Ze introduced them, saying, "The trio has been incredibly successful over the past ten years, winning the Best Player award five out of ten times. We never expected to meet you this year. If you can completely stop them, everyone will be extremely grateful to you!"
"Surely not? Are these three really that bad people?"
"No, that's not it. It's just that old man Sheng Kuangping has a foul mouth. After winning an award, he likes to show off in front of people in the industry, and he's the kind who keeps babbling on and on. Everyone wins awards based on their own abilities, and no one cares about it. But this old man Sheng has angered everyone, and not many people want him to win the award."
Fang Yang immediately understood that this person had become too proud and lost his composure, thus provoking public anger.
On stage, Qi Lu announced the final results: "The winner of this year's Best Lyricist Award is Mr. Fang Yang! After winning Best Composer, Mr. Fang Yang has once again won the honor of Best Lyricist. Let's all applaud and congratulate him. We also invite Mr. Fang Yang to come up on stage to accept the award!"
Seeing Sheng Kuangping's dark expression out of the corner of his eye, Fang Yang leisurely got up and slowly walked towards the stage, feeling that the applause was even louder than ever before!
If Zhang Ze hadn't said anything, Fang Yang would have assumed that everyone was offering more encouragement. But now, Fang Yang realized that these people had been suffering from a stagnant situation for too long, and that their true intentions were more of a gloating mentality. He just wondered if, when Fang Yang monopolized most of the awards in the future, their applause would still be the same as it was now, or if they would just give a perfunctory, half-hearted response.
Once on stage, Qi Lu will be in a dominant position. "Mr. Fang, this is your first time attending the Chinese Golden Melody Awards Ceremony, and you've already won three major awards. Aren't you extremely happy?"
"Yes, I never expected to achieve this result. I am so happy tonight. I would like to express my special thanks to the judges for their kindness and to my fans for their support. Here, I would like to say that, to thank my fans for their support and love, Zheng Xiuli has produced an album, which will be released nationwide in the near future. I believe it will be a pleasant surprise for my fans!"
Qi Lu exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, is this true? You composed and wrote all the music and lyrics?"
"Yes, and Cantonese songs will dominate, giving those who love Cantonese songs another chance to enjoy an audio-visual feast."
"Then I must thank Mr. Fang, and also Ms. Zheng Xiuli. I really like Ms. Zheng Xiuli's song 'Easily Hurt Woman.' Mr. Fang, I didn't expect you to understand women so well. This song 'Easily Hurt Woman' really speaks to the hearts of women. I want to thank you on behalf of all the women in the world!"
Fang Yang was a little embarrassed. "That was just putting myself in their shoes. Many of the teachers present could have written something that would have been similar. I just wrote down what they had always wanted to say but hadn't."
"Mr. Fang is very modest, but many teachers here do have such skills. I believe that all of you will have more good works released to the market in the future. Now, please welcome Teacher Zheng Yang to the stage to present the award!"
