Online, anger spread rapidly like wildfire, with netizens expressing their dissatisfaction fiercely on various social media platforms.
"What's wrong with the Chinese music scene? How can they let foreign singers swagger around on our home turf? It's an absolute disgrace!"
"What kind of trash singers did the show invite? Can't they have some backbone and find some talented Chinese singers to beat them?"
"Our Chinese music scene shouldn't be this pathetic; someone has to stand up and defend our dignity!"
In the comments section, accusations arose one after another.
Some netizens directly attacked the show's selection criteria: "Look at this lineup! Couldn't they have put more effort into inviting some truly talented singers? Isn't this just making us a laughing stock for foreigners?"
Some netizens also expressed concern about the current state of the Chinese music scene: "Does our Chinese music scene have no singers who can be considered good? This is so disappointing."
Under pressure from the internet, the official account of the "Singer Who Makes Waves" program was quickly flooded with angry netizens.
People recommended their favorite talented singers.
“I think Xiao Qingfeng is very good. His singing skills are first-class. He should be allowed to go on the show to compete against foreign singers.”
"And Han Hong, her stage presence is outstanding, she will definitely bring glory to the Chinese music scene."
"I highly recommend Han Lei. His songs are always very infectious and he can definitely beat foreign singers."
......
As more and more netizens recommended it, many talented singers in the music industry also posted their requests to take on the challenge on their personal social media accounts.
Powerful singer Liu Huan wrote on Weibo: "I am singer Liu Huan, and I volunteer!"
This Weibo post instantly garnered a large number of likes and reposts.
Han Hong, a leading figure in the music industry, also spoke out: "I am singer Han Hong, and I volunteer!"
Her remarks also attracted widespread attention.
More and more singers are joining the ranks of those volunteering, expressing their love for the Chinese music scene and their pursuit of honor through their actions.
The entire music scene seemed to be enveloped by a strong sense of patriotism.
For the "Singer Who Makes Waves" program team, they are facing enormous pressure.
On the one hand, they need to respond to the doubts and anger of netizens as soon as possible; on the other hand, they are also thinking about how to adjust the program strategy and find truly talented singers to turn the situation around.
This battle for the honor of the Chinese music scene has only just begun.
The matter escalated, and what was originally a competitive music variety show unexpectedly turned into a major battle concerning honor and disgrace.
An article titled "A Fifty-Year-Old Woman Guards the National Gate" even appeared online, jokingly calling on truly talented singers to join the "battle" to defend the dignity of the Chinese music scene.
Although countless people flocked to Xiao Qingfeng's Douyin comment section demanding that he participate in the battle, Xiao Qingfeng didn't feel anything; on the contrary, he thought it was a good thing.
In his view, the Chinese music scene is too complacent and needs external stimulation.
First, in recent years, the Chinese music scene has lacked genuine innovation and breakthroughs. Many singers are repeating similar styles and routines, lacking the courage to boldly try new musical forms.
Furthermore, the market is heavily commercialized, and some singers, in order to cater to market demands, excessively pursue traffic and commercial interests, while neglecting the quality of the music itself.
Third, the competitive atmosphere is not strong enough, and there is not enough external pressure to motivate singers to continuously improve their skills.
External stimuli can bring many benefits.
First, it can stimulate innovation in the Chinese music scene. When foreign singers bring different musical styles and singing techniques, it will encourage Chinese singers to learn from, draw on, and innovate, thereby promoting the development of the Chinese music scene.
Secondly, it can enhance the professional skills of singers. Competing with foreign singers will motivate them to work harder to improve their singing abilities, stage presence, and other skills to meet the challenges.
Finally, this external stimulus helps cultivate the audience's musical appreciation. When appreciating performances by singers from different countries, the audience will broaden their musical horizons and improve their ability to appreciate music, thereby promoting the development of the Chinese music scene to a higher level.
Therefore, Xiao Qingfeng did not respond to the fans' "urging" and the public opinion on the Internet, and even simply ignored it.
Xiao Qingfeng is not unpatriotic. On the contrary, those who know him know that his patriotism is stronger than that of any other singer. Otherwise, he would not have been able to write songs like "Chinese People," "Dragon Scales of Heaven and Earth," and "Yellow Race."
However, Xiao Qingfeng understands and is happy to see the anger of netizens, because this is the most basic sense of national honor of ordinary Chinese people, and it is also a manifestation of the cohesion of the Chinese nation.
Xiao Qingfeng is steadily advancing his various tasks. With his support, the success of the first two episodes of "Masked Singer" has put the show on track, and preparations for the follow-up episodes are proceeding intensively.
After a brief period of reflection on "Masked Singer," Xiao Qingfeng boarded a flight to the Zhejiang Film and Television Base.
When he arrived at the filming location of "Eternal Love," the scene was bustling with activity.
When director Li Guonong saw Xiao Qingfeng arrive, he immediately went to greet him. The two sat down in a corner of the set and began to discuss the specific filming content.
Xiao Qingfeng offered some suggestions regarding the pacing of the plot and the character development, which Li Guonong listened to attentively, nodding in agreement from time to time.
The two exchanged ideas, striving to make the work even more perfect.
During the exchange of opinions, Li Guonong was deeply impressed by Xiao Qingfeng's professionalism and insight, while Li Guonong's rich experience also gave Xiao Qingfeng a lot of inspiration.
Having had the experience of their first collaboration, the two worked together even better this time.
After visiting the set in Zhejiang, Xiao Qingfeng flew to Shanghai to meet with the famous reality show directors Chi Kui and Xie Yuan.
Chi Kyu is one of the most famous directors in the reality show industry. With his unique creativity and superb directing skills, he has created many phenomenal reality shows.
His works often delve into the inner world of his guests, showcasing the complexity and beauty of human nature. Among them, the program "Adventure Journey," which he directed, takes viewers to mysterious corners around the world, allowing guests to challenge themselves in extreme environments and gain growth.
This program not only generated a huge response in China, but was also successfully exported to many countries and regions, winning international acclaim for Chinese reality shows.
Chi Kyu excels at creating a tense and exciting atmosphere, while also capturing the guests' most genuine emotional expressions at crucial moments, making the audience feel as if they are there, experiencing joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness alongside the guests.
Xie Yuan is known for his delicate emotional expression and profound insights into life. His reality shows often focus on the lives of ordinary people, showcasing the warmth and touching moments in life through the stories of his guests.
For example, in his representative work "The Melody of Life", he invited guests from different professions and backgrounds to live together for a period of time and recorded their interactions.
This show lacks a glamorous stage and special effects, yet it has touched the hearts of countless viewers with its true stories and sincere emotions.
Xiao Qingfeng approached them with the intention of collaborating to create a unique reality show called "Fifty Kilometers Lotus Pier".
