Chapter 139 Feeling Good About Myself
As Gu Wenzhou said, after Gu Qingge's god-level performance, Mango TV felt very uncomfortable and the program crew regretted it very much.
It was because at that moment, the ratings and market share of Litchi Channel and Jiangnan TV began to rebound!
The contrast between the reputation and reviews of the two TV stations’ New Year’s Eve Galas on the Internet is also extremely stark!
Netizens all said that this year's Mango TV New Year's Eve Gala was really not good, but Litchi TV, because it invited Gu Qingge, had the biggest highlight of its New Year's Eve concert!
Some people who like to dig up graves and whip corpses dug up some previous remarks such as "I suggest Jiangnan TV to quickly remove Gu Qingge's program. It's not too late to mend the fold!", which made everyone laugh!
If Lizhi TV didn’t have Gu Qingge, how could it have a chance to counterattack Mango TV?
Gu Qingge's performance this time made many people who had spoken ill of her before feel very embarrassed.
The female host named Y from Mango TV was also dug out. It turned out to be Yang Xin, a new host who joined Mango TV not long ago.
I don’t know where she got the courage to speak ill of Gu Qingge behind her back.
Maybe she was also a pawn, a "temporary worker", or maybe she was just jealous and couldn't help but talk nonsense.
It is foreseeable that if Mango TV wants to cooperate with Gu Qingge in the future, the future of this new host may be rather bleak.
There is another person who has been ridiculed by netizens in various ways, and we have to mention him. He is An Mingxun, the little king of the music industry who was invited by Mango TV at a high price.
To be fair, An Mingxun's performance at the New Year's Eve party was indeed acceptable. At least he was singing live, and he was very hard-working, and his high notes were very powerful.
The audience at the scene was generally satisfied with his performance.
Unfortunately, the audience in front of the TV and the screen cannot accept his flashy, evil-like, ghost-howling singing style.
One comment about An Mingxun that was highly rated read, "Singing, singing. An Mingxun has always been more about 'acting' than 'singing'. He is a performing singer, and can only use this kind of sensationalism to cover up his lack of talent."
After all, it’s not that An Mingxun can’t sing normally, but the problem is that normal singing has no gimmick at all. His voice is not very recognizable, and his creative ability is average. Why is he so popular?
But now, he has had his face done, changed his singing style, established his personality, and his crazy fans are praising him, so isn't everything done right?
Unfortunately, the singer who sang at the same time as An Mingxun this time was Gu Qingge, a super newcomer in the music industry who has been labeled as the "little queen".
Gu Qingge's singing style is naturally traditional, that is, singing seriously and heartily on the stage, relying on his strength!
Maybe because it was her first time performing on a large stage, she was not very good at interacting with the audience.
But this is very friendly to the TV and the audience in front of the screen.
Because some singers, when they feel they can’t reach the high notes during the chorus, they like to point the microphone toward the audience and say, “Everyone, come on!”
This kind of interaction really destroys the feeling of the audience in front of the TV and the screen. Everyone wants to listen to you sing, not just when they are having a great time listening to you, and then you say "let's sing together".
Of course, there are also some singers who have extremely popular songs. When people go to their concerts, they joke that it is the singers listening to the chorus of fans at the concert.
All in all, An Mingxun hit a wall this time.
But what's funny is that after singing, this guy went backstage and felt pretty good about himself. He asked his assistant to quickly show him the fans' comments about him.
If nothing unexpected happens, fans should be very satisfied with his performance, calling him "the big devil of the music world", "another stage of godhood", "the hottest star in the Chinese music world"...
However, the assistant looked strange, so he had no choice but to show him the comments.
"A mere passerby, what a bullshit little superstar, his singing skills are completely outshined by Gu Qingge!"
"Mango TV was blind. They actually invited An Mingxun, hoping that he could suppress Gu Qingge, but in the end he was beaten. It's really funny. ^.^"
"I was watching Mango TV so well, but when I saw An Mingxun's possessed look, I got annoyed. I immediately went to watch Gu Qingge, and then I just thought it was really good!"
"The pop star's four-step routine: 1. Starts by mumbling intoxicatedly; 2. Suddenly possessed, fingers trembling, jumping up and down, mumbling something; 3. Then, with a burst of excitement, he stretches his neck like a rooster crowing and lets out a high-pitched scream; 4. The drug wears off, and he collapses, his eyes glazing over, he mumbles something, and then gives a silly laugh. The end."
…
After reading it, An Mingxun's face turned pale. Although he knew that he had a lot of haters, it was probably because the company bought him a year-round package of hot searches. Even eating or drinking could make it to the hot searches. His exposure was a bit too high.
But it doesn't make sense like it is now. Not long after he finished singing, he was criticized like this!
"What's going on?" An Mingxun asked his assistant with some dissatisfaction.
"He has become a god!" the assistant replied.
"I know I've been deified, so why are they still so evil?" An Mingxun questioned.
"Gu Qingge was deified!" the assistant said the truth weakly.
"Gu Qingge? Isn't she just a newly rising singer-songwriter? Many people question her performance. How can she become a legend?" An Mingxun became more and more confused.
However, after watching Gu Qingge's live performance of "Blue and White Porcelain", he fell silent.
An Mingxun is a professional singer after all, so he has good vision. First of all, this song is really awesome, and Gu Qingge’s performance is also very good, with extremely strong skills.
"This female singer is really good. I must work with her if I have the chance in the future!"
An Mingxun calmed down and showed an appreciative expression.
An Mingxun has been in the industry for so many years that he has become accustomed to being criticized. If no one criticizes him, he might become obscure.
The key is that a very talented singer like Gu Qingge really appeals to his sexual preferences, and he likes to work with this kind of female singer. Maybe as they work together... those who understand will understand.
An Mingxun is quite confident in his appearance. Coupled with his popularity, singing skills and talent, he doesn't think any female singer would reject him.
Next, An Mingxun, who became interested in Gu Qingge, even watched her performances at CCTV's New Year's Eve Gala and Bilibili's New Year's Eve Gala.
It’s okay to sing “My Motherland and I” on CCTV, but An Mingxun has no interest in such patriotic songs.
However, Gu Qingge's performance of the epic song "aLIEz" with her Queen band at the B station New Year's Eve party immediately got him excited!
