Chapter 353 A New Round of Competition

Chapter 353 A New Round of Competition

After the 16th Golden Melody Awards ceremony.

All major media outlets posted on Weibo and short video platforms to report on the grand occasion of this awards ceremony.

[From a newcomer to winning the Golden Melody Award, it only took Feng Qi Wu Tong half a year! 】

[Shock!!! The record of the Best Vocal Album winner has been broken from one year after debut to half a year after debut! ]

[Shock!!! Lin Zhixing won six Golden Melody Awards, breaking the record for the most awards won by a single singer! ]

【The godfather of Chinese music Luo Desheng passed the baton to Lin Zhixing! 】

[Super informative acceptance speech! Lin Zhixing's ultimate goal is to compete with foreign singers! ]

On Weibo's hot search list, the top six pieces of news were all about Lin Zhixing, and netizens online were full of praise for him.

"Young and promising! Debuting at the peak has become a reality now!"

"As a fan of Feng Qi Wu Tong, I was so excited watching the award ceremony. My idol is really strong!"

“They really deserve this award!”

"Who dares to say that Fengqi Wutong doesn't have the blessing of awards this time? There are six!"

…

Inside a high-end villa in Taipei.

After the award ceremony, Hua Futing drove Luo Desheng back home. The two of them sat on the sofa in silence, looking at each other without saying a word. Only the TV was talking.

They didn't know what to say. The master and the apprentice didn't win a single award. The mood of the whole night was like a roller coaster, expectation-disappointment-expectation-disappointment-expectation-disappointment...

I witnessed Lin Zhixing's entire highlight moment tonight, which is more painful than not winning any award.

"Master, drink some water!"

Hua Futing broke the silence first and poured Luo Desheng a glass of boiled water.

Luo Desheng took the cup, took a sip and put it down.

At this moment, my mind was filled with the image of Lin Zhixing raising his glass and giving a speech. It was as if countless eyes were staring at me, watching me, who was hailed as the "Godfather of Music", making a fool of myself.

Just thinking about it makes me feel like there's something stuck in my throat and I can't drink any of it.

"Why……"

Hua Futing sighed deeply, looked at his master, and said comfortingly: "Master, don't be upset about what happened tonight. You can say that you have been successful all your life, and only failed once tonight. Look at me, I have never been successful... Life must go on as usual!"

"After tonight, I've figured it out. From now on, I will be indifferent to fame and fortune. I will no longer participate in any music competition programs or any music awards. I will just make music down-to-earth. As long as the music I make is liked by the audience, it will be considered a success and my efforts will not be in vain!"

Don't get drunk by drinking, just drink less; win people over with virtue, you can't defeat them; don't be tempted by beauty, you can't touch them; be indifferent to fame and fortune, there is really no other way.

Although Hua Futing was unwilling, he knew how to face reality.

After the failure of the Spring Festival Music Gala "Loud and Clear Songs", Ben also terminated the contract with his own program, thinking that if he could win an award tonight, he might be able to save the situation. Unfortunately, the opposite happened.

It can be said that I have no commercial value at the moment. Unless I can write another hit song, I will have to live indifferent to fame and fortune.

It's like saying what's really in your mind in a nice way.

Listening to his apprentice's true feelings, Luo Desheng was silent for a long time, then turned his head, his eyes gradually turning red.

What the apprentice said was very right. Although his music career did not end as he expected, it was indeed a successful career and few people could shake his position in the music industry.

The music industry is cruel. If one's apprentice has not achieved decent results, he or she may gradually disappear in the tide of renewal like most singers.

After a comparison, I suddenly felt much more enlightened...

At the same time, I feel a little sad for my apprentice’s recognition of reality…

Luo Desheng let out a long sigh, patted Hua Futing on the shoulder, and said comfortingly: "You are right. Being eliminated by the tide of the times may be the fate of every singer, regardless of historical achievements."

After saying that, he patted his chest and assured: "I respect your choice. Futing, you work hard and I will help you with the creation! Even tiles can turn over one day, and the east wind can also turn south, let alone people!"

"Yes, even tiles will eventually turn over, and the east wind will eventually turn south, let alone me!"

Hua Futing's nose felt sore and tears welled up in his eyes.

Suddenly, a health product advertisement began playing on TV and the advertising music started playing.

"It's not a sin for men to cry"

"The taste of long-lost tears"

Listening to Dong Dehua's singing, Hua Futing could no longer hold back his tears and leaned on his master's shoulder, tears streaming down his face.

“It’s going to be okay!”

Luo Desheng touched his disciple's forehead to comfort him.

After the TV commercial ended, the "Entertainment Early News" program began, and the female host on the screen reported the news of the "Golden Melody Awards" as soon as possible.

【The godfather of Chinese music Luo Desheng passed the baton to Lin Zhixing! 】

Luo Desheng's eyes became moist again as he looked at the hot search news on Weibo selected by the female host on the screen.

Who handed over the baton to Lin Zhixing?

It was obviously a robbery!!!

Luo Desheng's tears of unwillingness still fell, and the father and son hugged each other and cried bitterly.

…

The other side.

In a high-end apartment.

“You really did it!”

After watching the video of the 16th Golden Melody Awards ceremony and witnessing Lin Zhixing's success, Wang Feng secretly gave him a thumbs up.

“I give up!”

His previous concert sales lost to Feng Qi Wu Tong, and his strong self-esteem made him very dissatisfied. He thought that Feng Qi Wu Tong did not receive the recognition of the "Golden Melody Award" and had no hard honors.

This time, he won six Golden Melody Awards and broke multiple records. It's simply unbelievable.

It is really like what people say on the Internet: "Debut is the peak."

"Why!"

Wang Feng sighed lightly, and fell into deep thought with his chin in his hand in front of the computer desk.

Judging from the current situation, I am no match for Fengqi Wutong. If I encounter them on the Spring Festival Music Gala in the future, there is a high probability that I will be eliminated.

Moreover, they are not the only excellent singers among the top 16. There are several young singers who are equally strong. If you think about it carefully, you may have no hope of making it to the top four.

"How about a challenge next time?"

Wang Feng thought to himself.

The target he wants to challenge on this stage has always been "Xu Wei". As a singer of the same type, he has been compared by many netizens for many years.

Whose rock is better? If I challenge Xu Wei in the next episode, if I win, the topic of who is stronger will end, and my fame will soar.

It wouldn't be too embarrassing if I lost. After all, he debuted eight years earlier than me, which means he is half a senior.

If I keep dragging it out, I'll be eliminated by those young singers, that would be so embarrassing.

In the next episode, the top 16 will advance to the top 12. Wang Feng feels that Xu Wei will not use his best songs. If he takes out his best songs in advance to compete with him, his chances of winning are still quite good.

"Yes, let's do it!"

…

…

The next afternoon.

Building 14, Door 8, Shuxiang Courtyard Community.

Lin Zhixing, carrying a handbag, knocked on the door with a cheerful look on his face, "Open the door, I'm back!"

Soon, the door opened.

"Welcome home, Brother Lin!"

Dong Chen opened the door, took the handbag from Lin Zhixing, and welcomed him in with a smile, "Brother Lin, you are so awesome. You won six awards. I watched the whole process. I was so excited that I didn't sleep well last night!"

Lin Zhixing smiled and nodded, looking around, "Are Ge Zi and Ji Yu not at home?"

"Not at home."

Dong Chen poured a glass of water for Lin Zhixing and replied with a smile, "During the days when you were not at home, the two of them spent the whole day in various shopping malls, preparing everything from furniture and bedding to chopsticks and bowls! They were just out for an hour, so they probably won't be home until late."

"All right."

"What's in this bag?"

Dong Chen curiously opened Lin Zhixing's handbag, reached in and took out a trophy, then reached in again and took out another trophy.

After repeating this six times, all the trophies that Lin Zhixing had won at the Golden Melody Awards were taken out.

"Best Lyricist, Best Composition, Best Arranger, Best Group, Best Vocal Album, Best Album Producer..."

Dong Chen picked up the trophies and looked at them one by one, then smiled and gave a thumbs up, "Good fellow, Brother Lin, you really went to stock up!"

Lin Zhixing straightened his collar and said with a devilish smile: "Wait for the next batch to come in!"

…

…

The day of recording the tenth episode of "Loud and Clear Singing".

The building of Beijing Central Television Radio Station.

Inside the singer's lounge.

"Wow, it's them!"

"Did you see the award ceremony the night before yesterday? They were simply going out to stock up, winning six awards in a row, breaking a record that had been dormant for ten years!"

"That's amazing! I think they might win the championship of this year's Spring Festival Music Gala!"

"The pressure is so great, I don't know if I can handle it!"

As soon as Lin Zhixing and his group walked out of the dressing room, they attracted the attention of the entire lounge.

The Golden Melody Award is an award that all singers desire. Some people may not even win a trophy in their entire lives, but this person won six in his first participation...

Many singers are filled with envy, jealousy and hatred.

At this moment, a pair of male and female singers sitting in the corner stared at Lin Zhixing and Song Ge with eyes full of resentment.

The male and female singers are Guan Yue and Guan Hai. They also participated in the Golden Melody Awards ceremony a few days ago and were nominated as "Best Group".

They were one of the four groups shortlisted, and witnessed Lin Zhixing taking the award on stage. It was a waste of time, and they were in a terrible mood.

"Wife!"

Guan Hai patted Guan Yue's hand, gritted his teeth, and promised: "I promise you, I will definitely eliminate Feng Qi Wu Tong and prove that those Golden Melody Award judges are all idiots!"

"good!"

Guan Yue nodded, her eyes falling on Dong Chen and Ji Yu, "Don't be angry, proceed as planned, let's eliminate Leap Miracle tonight first!"

"good!"

…

…

Eight o'clock in the evening.

All the singers lined up and sat down in the order they sat down last time. After nine rounds of competition, there were only 16 singers left in the originally packed seats.

With a gesture from the on-site director, the noisy scene suddenly quieted down, and the live recording of the tenth episode of "Loud Singing Voices" officially began.

As the most popular music program in China, the topic of each competition is always a hot topic of conversation among people after dinner, and each new song in each episode can become a hot topic of discussion. With the fermentation of the "Golden Melody Awards" hot search, many viewers who learned about Fengqi Wutong for the first time also flocked to the live broadcast room.

The initial number of people in the live broadcast room reached a new high. Fans rushed into the room at the first moment and typed to cheer for their favorite singers. The barrage was boiling at this moment!

"First, the sofa!"

"Come on, Sun Fengzi! You are the best!"

"Can Zhou Luo and Sun Fengzi challenge each other for one episode? I want to see who is better between the Best Male Singer of the Year and the Best Female Singer of the Year!"

"It's my first time watching this show, and I came here specifically to see the group that won six Golden Melody Awards in a row!"

Amidst the warm applause from the audience, CTS host Wang Bing, dressed in a Chinese-style cheongsam, came to the center of the stage with smiling eyes and waving.

"Good evening, audience friends. We meet again. Welcome to the program "Loud and Clear Singing". I am tonight's host, Wang Bing..."

After the opening remarks, the five judges came on stage, and each judge's appearance drew cheers from the audience.

After the judges were seated, the host Wang Bing walked back to the center of the stage, pointed to the screen behind him and said with a smile: "I declare that the competition will start now. Who will be the first singer to appear? Everyone, please look at the big screen!"

The audience stared at the stage screen intently, full of anticipation for tonight's performance.

As the avatars of the sixteen contestants began to scroll rapidly, the atmosphere in the contestant seats gradually became tense. The further the competition progressed, the more small details could determine success or failure, and no one wanted to be drawn to sing in the first round.

Player seats.

Zhou Luo's eyes fell on Lin Zhixing beside him. He nudged Lin Zhixing with his arm and asked in a low voice, "Zhixing, did you come as promised tonight? Did you choose rap?"

After spending time together at the award ceremony, the two, although still competitors, have obviously become much more familiar with each other.

"Yes, I chose rap!"

Lin Zhixing turned his head to look at Zhou Luo and nodded.

"That's good, that's good!"

Zhou Luo breathed a sigh of relief. In order to compete with Lin Zhixing tonight, he had brought out his best rap performance. It would be a waste if they didn't win.

"You'll use all your strength, right?"

Zhou Luo asked again. He looked at Lin Zhixing's overall condition and he seemed not to care much about this matter.

"Of course!"

Lin Zhixing smiled and nodded, "I cherish every game, and I will try my best to win every game!"

He was in a very relaxed state. It was not that he didn't care about the duel with Zhou Luo, but that he had full confidence in this duel.

Because the song he is going to perform tonight is called "Nocturne".

Lin Zhixing took the competition with Zhou Luo very seriously, and specially used the song selection card to choose this "king bomb".

"That's good, that's good!"

…

On the big screen on the stage, the scrolling speed of the singers' portraits slowed down and eventually stopped, and the information of the first contestant appeared.

[I think I've seen you somewhere]

【Singing: Leaping Miracle】

【Lyrics: Lin Zhixing】

【Composition: Lin Zhixing】

【Arranger: Lin Zhixing】

"Now, please welcome Feiyue Miracle to perform the song "I Seem to Have Seen You Somewhere Before". Please welcome with applause!"
