Chapter 320 Cao Xuan: We Hualiu are the most hanging
Taiwan Golden Melody Awards Ceremony

"The No. 13 Best Mandarin Male Singer at the [-]th Taiwan Provincial Golden Melody Awards is... Please watch the big screen."

The award presenter Ren Xianqi pointed to the big screen, and the screen played the prelude to "Your Answer".

"Let us congratulate Cao Xuan!"

Ren Xianqi cheered and the audience applauded. This is the second singer to win the Golden Melody Award three times since 1990.

The first is Yin Zhengyang, who won the Golden Melody Song King in 1990, 1994, and 1995 respectively.

However, what makes Cao Xuan more powerful than Yin Zhengyang is that the former has been separated for several years, while Cao Xuan has an unprecedented triple kill of the King of Golden Songs.

Cao Xuan smiled. He won three awards in a row, and pretending to be a surprise would be fake. Although he was still happy, his heart was relatively calm.

Get up and embrace Xiao Zhou and the new brother Chen Yixun who are next to you. They are also nominees for the Golden Song King this time.

However, the two were very calm. From the moment Cao Xuan was shortlisted, there was basically a 70% chance of winning the prize.

Xiao Zhou was still barely able to compete. Chen Yixun knew his position as a running companion before he came, and he essentially showed his face to brush up his qualifications, and didn't think about winning awards at all.

Therefore, facing their good brother, both of them sent heartfelt congratulations.

After the interaction with the younger brothers, Cao Xuan came to the stage, Ren Xianqi shook hands and congratulated: "Congratulations!"

"Thank you, Brother Chi."

As for the audience in the audience or in front of the TV, they were very moved when they saw the reunion of Nanren and Beicao on the stage.

Times have changed, Bei Cao, who was a rising star back then, is now in full swing, and has already made his way to the international music scene.

However, Ren Xianqi, who was as famous as Cao Xuan, and even considered as a senior, couldn't hide his decline. Not to mention being tied with Cao Xuan, even Xiao Zhou Wang Lihong and his juniors were faintly overshadowing him now.

The king of heaven has slipped and his peak is no longer, which is somewhat regrettable.

However, Brother Xiaoqi's own mentality is still good. There are talents from generation to generation, and few of them can be popular for more than ten years. They have reached the peak of their careers and seen the scenery on the top of the mountain, which is already satisfying.

In the past, there may have been some changes in his mentality, but as Cao Xuan became more and more popular, and the gap between the two became wider and wider, he had no other thoughts, and even began to be proud of serving as Cao Xuan in the south.

After all, in the entire Chinese music scene, he is the only one who is as famous as Cao Xuan in the true sense.

Although the so-called "Northern Cao Southern Zhou Dynasty" has begun to be called, it has not yet formed a climate, and many people do not agree with this statement.

It is also because of this that even though [Southern Ren Beicao] is now in the past tense, it is destined to be a memory in the hearts of countless people.

At the same time, [South Ren Bei Cao] is also an inseparable part of the careers of Cao Xuan and Ren Xianqi, as well as the history of the Chinese music scene——

An era of pop music comparable to the four heavenly kings of Xiangjiang.

It can be said that this [Southern Ren Beicao] combination made the original Cao Xuan, and now as Cao Xuan's status gets higher, Ren Xianqi's historical status will inevitably rise accordingly.

Back then, Cao Xuan became famous and became popular by taking advantage of Ren Xianqi's popularity. Perhaps in a few years, Ren Xianqi could earn enough pension expenses just by holding the name of Nan Ren Bei Cao.

This can be regarded as a kind of causal reincarnation...

Today, Nanren presented the award to Beicao, which was intentional by the organizing committee, whether it was to hype up the topic or make a good story, but the two parties involved were still very happy.

[Southern Ren Beicao] is of great significance to Ren Xianqi, and it is also a memory worth remembering for Cao Xuan.

Ren Xianqi is proud of being the south and the north, and Cao Xuan is also used to and likes this combination. This is the beginning and mark of his dominance in the music scene.

After exchanging pleasantries, Ren Xianqi stepped aside, and Cao Xuan held the trophy. This is already the third trophy he has won today. The previous two were Best Lyricist "Blue and White Porcelain" and Best Video "Your Answer".

It can be clearly seen that compared to last year, this year's Golden Melody Awards have been very restrained.

The three awards are basically uncontroversial and strong favorites, and the other slightly competitive awards were awarded to other finalists.

Cao Xuan had already prepared for this, and it was no surprise that he delivered his speech normally.

What is disappointing is that this year his acceptance speech was well-prepared, and no matter which award he spoke, it went smoothly and smoothly.

The same goes for winning the Golden Melody Song King this time, but Cao Xuan realized that it might be the last time he won the award this year, so he also spoke the truth.

"Actually, during this period of time, what I have felt the most is that everyone is too much chasing after foreign music and blindly belittling themselves. This kind of inferiority complex is not advisable, and it makes me feel very shameful.

I still say the same thing, the European and American music scene is very powerful, but we also have merits.

I once listened to Jie Lun’s songs to American musicians. They thought they were excellent, and even took the initiative to study the arrangement skills. I also listened to them songs by Wang Fei, Amei, and Huajian, and they also expressed their appreciation.

Therefore, in the face of European, American, and even Japanese and Korean music scenes, we should first of all not habitually feel inferior, we must overcome this mentality, and then objectively evaluate both parties, learn from each other, and give full play to our own characteristics and advantages.

South Korea has Hallyu, Japan has Japanese fashion, Europe and the United States have European and American trends, and we also have our Hualiu. I also firmly believe that our Hualiu is the best! "

The audience applauded like thunder, especially Xiao Zhou jumped up to applaud Cao Xuan.

In fact, this incident was also caused by Xiao Zhou. Before they had a meal, Xiao Zhou complained that since Cao Xuan entered Europe and America, the atmosphere of the music scene in the province had suddenly changed.

All kinds of belittling Chinese songs, advocating the European and American markets, several related singers were asked when they would release an English album.

In fact, there are related trends in mainland China, but it is not as serious. Xiao Zhou is very unhappy with this phenomenon. He once criticized the media, but his words were useless.

Because he has never proved anything in the European and American markets, everyone thinks that he can’t eat grapes and says grapes are sour. Instead of supporting him, they ridicule him.

Cao Xuan knew this, so he did his part to carry the banner of bombardment. Xiao Zhou was sour, but he has proved himself in the European and American markets, so he is not sour.

Even though some people think that Cao Xuan is trying to force himself to brag about Hualiu, but with his achievements in Europe and America, he speaks more confidently than others.

In fact, Cao Xuan didn't need to get involved in this matter, and he might even be targeted by people for his efforts, but he just saw that these people were unhappy.

It doesn't matter if you play foreign songs, Cao Xuan also admitted that there is a big gap between the overall strength and the market between the two parties, but you don't have to sing Chinese songs at the same time.

Cao Xuan was most troubled by this.

The upper limit of foreign countries is high, but it does not mean that they have no lower limit. Whether it is music or film and television, they also have a lot of bad movies and bad songs.

Those that can spread to the domestic side, and that are still popular, are basically the high-quality goods that have been killed by thousands of troops.

If you take all the high-quality film and television music from Europe, America, Japan, and South Korea, and compare it to the bad domestic movies and saliva songs, isn't this finding fault?

If we use domestic high-quality goods to compare foreign bad movies, we will still kill them randomly
Therefore, you should not be too double-standard in doing things, and compare high-quality products with high-quality products.

In terms of the depth of strategy, "Da Ming Dynasty 1566" and "Yongzheng Dynasty" are ten blocks away from "Game of Thrones", and even "House of Cards" is not enough.

But when it comes to special effects, plot rhythm and specific production standards, it is difficult for these domestic masterpieces to be compared with those European and American blockbusters.

Moreover, the overall lower limit is high, especially for film and television. Although standardized production still cannot avoid the production of bad movies, it is relatively rare to see the kind of big bad movies that both people and gods are angry with.
And although it also pursues business, it still has relatively high quality requirements, unlike in China, where bad movies get together in a certain period, and the flow-only theory is blind.

In contrast, the domestic layout is like a ladder, with the most bad films, then the mid-range, with high-quality classics at the top, and an ellipse in Europe and the United States.

In terms of high-quality classics, domestic production may not be inferior to Europe and the United States, but the most frightening thing is that domestic mid-range works are far inferior, and the number of bad films is greatly exceeded.

These are all reasons that Cao Xuan himself understands. If it is such an objective and fair comparison, Cao Xuan can bear it no matter how ugly it sounds.

But some people play double standards, completely ignore the objective evaluation of domestic production, and blindly belittle and ridicule, then don't blame Cao Xuan for his rhythm.

The more you belittle Chinese songs, the more he clamors that Hualiu is the best, just for these double-standard dogs.

Sometimes the truth doesn't make sense. If you explain it to them, they will intercept the misinterpreted words, so it's better to directly raise the flag.

This is the lesson Cao Xuan learned from Xiao Zhou in the original time and space.

In fact, at the beginning, Xiao Zhou was not that resistant to the Korean wave, and even affirmed some of its outstanding achievements, but found that the media blindly misinterpreted his words and belittled Chinese songs, which made him not a human being inside and out.

So Xiao Zhou understood that rationality is not enough, he has to be dazed to be dazed, and Hua Liu will be over if he hangs on the most.

In the original space-time Korean wave invaded, Chinese songs were belittled and ridiculed, others were silent or had insufficient reputation, Xiao Zhou resolutely carried the banner of Hualiu.

Now that Cao Xuan is No.1 in the Chinese music scene and the eldest brother of the new generation of singers, he will not be vague about his role, let alone the fact that this turmoil was essentially caused by him.

They can fight whatever they want internally. If anyone attacks the Chinese music scene and degrades the Chinese and worships the foreign, Cao Xuan will definitely talk to him.

Those words caused thousands of waves, at least many people in Taiwan were shocked by Cao Xuan's words.

Some people don't understand what he's doing when he has nothing to do. Young people are just too energetic, and they don't know the heights of heaven and earth if they have achieved a little.

Some people also think that Cao Xuan, as No.1 in the Chinese music scene, should have this responsibility and arrogance to maintain the reputation of the Chinese music scene.

Besides, is it still called a young man if he is not arrogant?
Cao Xuan is not yet thirty, and it is the time when his fighting spirit is high. If even the young people are discouraged, then the Chinese music scene will really be hopeless in the future.

And the turmoil of the outside world did not affect Cao Xuan. After accepting the award, he bid farewell to his younger brothers and sisters and returned to the capital. He was specially interviewed by CCTV, and he also roughly expressed his thoughts in this interview.

"There may be some violent reactions, but I really didn't mean to attack the European and American music scene, or to promote the Chinese music scene. I mainly aimed at those who ignore the facts and blindly belittle their own country and compatriots.

I think this kind of person is like Mr. Lu Xun said, kneeling for a long time will not stand up, but if you can't get up, don't let those of us who have already stood up kneel with you. "

Although Cao Xuan's criticisms are mainly those Taiwanese media music critics, to a certain extent, it also applies to those public figures who are active in the Internet media.

The phrase "If you kneel for a long time, you can't stand up" also became popular in advance, and later became a famous saying of the first generation of angry youth on the Internet to ridicule the public.

Lu Xun, yyds!
