As the largest music festival in China, the Golden Melody Awards is always a bloody event on the Internet, with fans showing off their skills and fighting fiercely on various social platforms.
In comparison, this year is obviously much more peaceful.
On the entertainment forum, a special forum for guessing the Golden Melody Awards was opened as usual, but compared with the previous grand occasions of hundreds of posts in an instant, it is obviously much quieter, while another post is much more lively.
——This is probably the Golden Melody Awards with the least suspense in history.
I watch the Golden Melody Awards every year. To be honest, even with Zhuo Tianwang, it is not so suspenseful. Those singers who released albums in the first half of the year probably didn’t expect that such a dark horse would emerge in the second half of the year, right?
I guess the biggest suspense of this year's Golden Melody Awards is whether Ye Cang can get the Grand Slam.
1L: Let me analyze it for the author. After Bai Weijia's failure, Ye Cang has no rivals for the Best Male Singer, so he should be able to win. "Rebirth" has become popular abroad, so it would be unreasonable if he didn't win the Best Album. As for the Best Song, do you remember that Ye Cang dominated the music charts before? Anyway, I think he has a great chance of winning the Grand Slam.
2L: Very good hope +1
5L: LS is Ye Cang's water army, right? Bragging is not taxable! Best Male Singer and Best Album are fine, but Best Song is not based on sales and popularity, but on artistry. It must get more than 2/3 of the votes from the expert group. Don't forget that in the previous session, the Golden Melody Awards would rather leave this award empty than give it to unqualified singers.
7L: Whose water army are you 5L? Does it mean that what the public likes has no artistry? Bullshit! Ye Cang's album is of high quality approved by Dean Fang and Ni Shen. If you have the guts, go to them and say it!
8L: With 5L's knowledge, I'm afraid even Ni Shen and Dean Fang don't know it.
155L: What did I see just now? Why did Ye Cang win the Best Newcomer award? ? What the Golden Melody Awards are doing! Is it a broadcast accident? !
156L: LS wake up, Ye Cang is a new artist who debuted this year! It's normal for him to win the Best New Artist award!
166L: I'm dumbfounded, the question is which new artist is as awesome as him? This is going to force the veterans in the music industry to have no way to survive hhh
363L: Best Male Singer! ! Holy crap! ! 1/3 of the way to the slam dunk
555L: Best Album! ! "Rebirth" is nominated, the sales volume is simply terrifying, right? The sales volume of all the nominated singers' albums combined can't beat his, right? ?
559L: It's about half of his, it's settled! !
600L: Now reporting the progress, nominated for three categories, won three awards, 2/3 of the grand slam progress
621L: Ahhhhhh, I'm so excited that I want to cry!! So exciting! Please, God, let Cang Cang get the grand slam!!
622L: To be honest, with Ye Cang's current performance, he can be called the best newcomer in history, right?
634L: What a newcomer! Even those great singers who have debuted for so many years probably don't have this performance
678L: Ahhhh, Cang Cang is nominated for Best Lyricist!!!
690L: Didn't win, ahh, what a pity...
754L: Got the Best Composition!!! Now he is nominated for four categories and won three! Come on! There are also Best Arrangement and Best Song!!
801L: This is going to take away the entire Golden Melody Awards! Can you leave some for others? [dog head]
912L: Report!! We got the Best Arrangement!! Now we are nominated for five categories and won four, which means we are 2/3 of the way to the slam dunk, rushing to win!!!
1000L: Best Song! Finally got it!!
1003L: My heart is about to stop beating so fast, I don’t even dare to watch the live broadcast, I’ll just wait here and watch everyone’s live broadcast1042L
: Me too, I’ve never experienced the tension of watching a game at an awards ceremony!! God bless! Cang Cang must win it
-
at the Golden Melody Awards ceremony, all the candidates and audiences were equally nervous.
This year's Golden Melody Awards almost became a solo show for Ye Cang. Ye Cang kept going on stage to receive awards. In the end, he didn't even say a thank you speech, but said in a very annoying way: "I may have to come up later, let's talk about it together then."
But he was indeed qualified to say so. After all, compared to other singers who didn't win any awards, the string of golden trophies next to Ye Cang was really eye-catching.
As the big screen showed the list of nominees for the best song, Ye Cang's "Long Night" was on the list.
The award-giving guest, Fang Zhilan, executive vice president of the Music Association and president of the Zhongjing Music Academy, walked slowly onto the stage with an envelope in his hand. Almost everyone stared at the envelope in his hand.
For the candidates, this was their last chance tonight, and for Ye Cang, it also determined whether he could become the first singer to win the Grand Slam at the Golden Melody Awards as a newcomer.
All the media and the audience stared at Fang Zhilan eagerly, eagerly waiting for this biggest suspense.
In contrast, Ye Cang's reaction was very calm. He had long passed the age when he had to rely on awards to prove himself. It was good to be able to get it, and even if he didn't, it was not a big deal for him.
On the contrary, Li Zihang next to him looked much more nervous.
Ye Cang also comforted him: "Relax, it's no big deal."
Li Zihang: "..."
Li Zihang said helplessly: "Can't you act a little more nervous? At least give us runners-up a little respect? Otherwise I'm really afraid that I will be jealous and beat you up."
Ye Cang: "Little classmate, don't be so irritable, you are actually very good?"
Li Zihang rolled his eyes: "What's good about it?"
Ye Cang: "Although you didn't get the prize, at least you didn't bet with me, right?"
Fang Jiqing, who was sitting behind the two of them and neither won the prize nor made a bet with Ye Cang: "..."
Fang Jiqing felt that if they were not in the spotlight now, he could strangle the bastard Ye Cang to death immediately.
At this time, Fang Zhilan stood in the middle of the stage, opened the envelope, and when he saw the name on it, a faint smile appeared on his face.
He did not immediately announce the winner, but said into the microphone: "I know that everyone is eager to see the name in this envelope, but I have to keep it a secret, I hope you don't mind."
His words eased the tense atmosphere a little, and many people laughed out loud.
Fang Zhilan said: "In the blink of an eye, the Golden Melody Awards has been established for the 26th time. Every year, we will select from thousands of new songs that we think are excellent and can change the status quo of Chinese music. Many times, I see many people complaining about why the best song is not chosen from the hot songs of the year, but those obscure and unpopular songs that no one can understand."
“But in my opinion, it’s not their fault that they are unpopular and unknown. Every song we selected has its own unique musical charm, newer musical forms, brilliant arrangements, and amazing musical structures. They have taken that step with great difficulty, and we hope that they can become pioneers and take Chinese music further.”
Fang Zhilan said slowly, which not only made those present thoughtful, but also made the audience in front of the TV and the Internet fall into thought.
Then, Fang Zhilan changed the subject: "Of course, I still have some regrets. Why is it that every year the best song is always a cold song, but there is no hot song? Fortunately, today, my regret is finally filled."
When Fang Zhilan said this, everyone's eyes turned to Ye Cang.
Ye Cang also raised his head with emotion.
Fang Zhilan opened the envelope and announced loudly: "Now, I announce that the winner of the 26th Golden Melody Award for Best Song is "Long Night". Congratulations to Ye Cang!"
Li Zihang couldn't restrain his excitement, hugged Ye Cang hard, and patted him on the back.
The scene broke out into violent applause, and many fans cried and shouted Ye Cang's name in the audience.
The moment Ye Cang stepped onto the stage, he had mixed feelings.
Although he was indifferent to the award, after Fang Zhilan announced that "Long Night" won the best song, his heart was still surging and he could hardly control it.
Ye Cang stepped onto the stage and took the trophy from Fang Zhilan. At that moment, his mind even went blank.
Everyone thought that as a newcomer, he was excited to get such a result.
However, Ye Cang understood that what he cared about was not the result, but that he had persisted in the endless darkness for thirty years and finally stepped onto the stage again. He had walked this road for too long.
He suddenly missed Shen Huai very much, and hoped that he could stand by his side and share this honor with him.
He looked at the audience and began to speak.
"This should be my last time to step onto the podium tonight."
As soon as these words came out, the audience burst into laughter, and even quite a few people booed. It was indeed a night of ups and downs for Ye Cang, and he gained a lot, which was in contrast to those of them who were just runners-up. It was really heartbreaking.
Ye Cang didn't mind and continued, "I'm very grateful to the expert panel for their recognition, and I'm also honored to receive this award. I have always believed that music is a very profound subject. Those pioneers who explore music are worthy of respect, and the creators who write songs seriously are one of mankind's precious treasures."
"I'm probably the luckier one among them. The success of "Rebirth" is not just my own credit, but also the result of the efforts of many creators behind the scenes. Therefore, I will take out 10% of the sales of the "Rebirth" album and invest it in the training of original singers."
As soon as he said this, the scene was suddenly filled with laughter, and even Fang Zhilan, who was waiting at the edge of the stage, was shocked.
This is no small amount. The sales of "Rebirth" have already exceeded 50 million, and there will be a steady stream of income in the future. Ye Cang chose to donate 10%. What a courage.
There were some people who were jealous at first, but now they only have admiration.
Although some people still say that he is stupid for using his own money to train his opponents, this is only a small number of people after all.
Shen Huai, who was in the audience, looked at Ye Cang deeply. He knew that Ye Cang was not doing this for show, nor was he pretending to be generous, but he sincerely hoped that there would be more and better original music.
This quality is in no way inferior to his talent.
After Ye Cang dropped this bomb, he added another sentence before leaving the stage.
"By the way, I hope that next time my agent and I come here, my opponents will be better fighters. Thank you."
Everyone: "!!!"
I was touched. This guy deserves a beating! !
