1993 My China Entertainment Age

Chapter 139: The famous director came to ask for money after checking the number of concerts!
In addition to Hong Kong's local awards, Jiang Xiaofeng also won the "Global Best-selling Asian Pop Singer" and "Global Best-selling Chinese Singer" awards from the World Music Awards.

Jiang Xiaofeng is also the second Chinese singer to win this award after Zhang Xueyou, the "God of Songs". It can be said that he is worthy of the title of "King of Songs".

As the Chinese music channel in Asia, in the 4th "Global Chinese Music Chart Awards Ceremony" held by Channel [V], Jiang Xiaofeng won the Best Male Singer Award and the Most Popular Asian Artist with the album "Jiangnan" prize.

To put it bluntly, except for the Golden Melody Award for Best Male Singer in Taiwan Province, Jiang Xiaofeng has won almost all the heavyweight awards in Chinese music.

Prior to this, Jiang Xiaofeng was also nominated for the Best Male Singer Award at the Taiwan Golden Melody Awards with the album "Cross Era", but unfortunately, at the 7th Golden Melody Awards Ceremony, he and other shortlisted singers lost to Zhang Xinzhe did not get this award.

For the Golden Melody Award for Best Male Singer, Jiang Xiaofeng still wanted to win it very much, because the Taiwan Provincial Golden Melody Award was indeed a very valuable professional award.

What comforted Jiang Xiaofeng a little was that in 1995, he once won the Best Newcomer Award at the 6th Taiwan Provincial Golden Melody Awards with the album "Jiang Xiaofeng".

However, Jiang Xiaodong always felt that, as the "king of singers" in the Chinese music scene, it would be a pity if he didn't even win the Golden Melody Award for Best Male Singer in Taiwan.

January 1, New Year's Eve.

For the first time, China Central Television held the Spring Festival Gala in the No. 1 studio hall.

Like the 1995 Spring Festival Gala, the 1998 CCTV Spring Festival Gala can also be described as "fairy fighting".

Because in this year's Spring Festival Gala, the singers sang many hit songs that were later widely circulated.

"Come on, come on, let's meet at ninety-eight

Come on, come on, let's make an appointment
Meet under the silver moonlight

meet in warm affection

......"

At the beginning, Wang Fei, the queen of Hong Kong and Taiwan, and Na Ying, the queen of mainland China, sang the song "Meeting in 1998" composed by Jiang Xiaofeng for them.

Naying's voice is solid, thick and steady, and very down-to-earth; Wang Fei's voice is ethereal and ethereal, like a castle in the air.

"Meeting in [-]" combines the two voices. With Na Ying, there is a sense of grounding reality, and with Wang Fei, there is a feeling of long aftertaste. It is both fantasy and reality. Wang Fei is an illusion. , Naying is true.

Wang Fei and Na Ying sang the song "Meeting in 1998", which can be called the most classic chorus of this Spring Festival Gala.

Coincidentally, mainland superstar singer Mao Ninghe, Xiangjiang superstar Andy Lau, and Taiwanese golden song singer Zhang Xinzhe also sang "Great China" for the first time.

Originally, the director team of the Spring Festival Gala wanted to invite the three hottest stars from the two sides of the Taiwan Strait to sing the song "Great China" together.

Because Jiang Xiaofeng didn't have a schedule, the director team of the Spring Festival Gala had to retreat and asked Mao Ning to take Jiang Xiaofeng's place, and formed a chorus with Andy Lau and Zhang Xinzhe.

Under normal circumstances, the above two songs, plus Liu Huan's "Song of a Heroic Man", can basically be called the three kings of this Spring Festival Gala.

However, this is after all the details of the Spring Festival Gala fighting between the gods. The songs sung on the stage of this Spring Festival Gala are not the most explosive, only worse.

Not long after Liu Huan's "Song of a Hero" was sung, Mr. Song's "Good Day", then "Entering the New Era" sung by Zhang Ye, Li Guangxi and others, "Walk the Quartet" sung by Han Lei, and Haigouwan His father sang "The Big Sedan Chair" and other songs, each of which is a hit song that is popular all over the country.

In addition to popular songs, the competition in small category programs is also quite fierce.

Zhao Bensan, Gao Xiumin and Quan Zhou collaborated for the first time on the skit "Happy New Year", which can be regarded as his peak work.

As for Chen Peisi's sketches, they rose all the way from "Eating Noodles" to the peak in "Protagonist and Supporting Role", and then began to decline step by step. By the time of "The Prince and the Postman", it was already not as good as before.

However, this work of Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao's last appearance on the Spring Festival Gala is full of strong national integrity, and it mainly discusses the dignity of Chinese people.

This work is similar to "Protagonist and Supporting Actor", which is a re-creation of an old work, transformed into a high-grade social inspiration, containing practical significance.

During this Spring Festival, Jiang Xiaofeng was not idle either. First, he went to Las Vegas in the United States for two tour concerts, and then in Toronto, Canada, and Atlantic City in the United States.

All in all, throughout February, Jiang Xiaofeng was either holding a concert or on his way to the concert.

Over the past month, Jiang Xiaofeng has held a total of 15 overseas concert tours, and Jiang Xiaofeng's "Who and Zhengfeng World Tour Concert" has been carried out here, and a total of 47 concerts have been held, which are:
10 games in Hong Kong, 10 games in Taiwan Province, 15 games in Southeast Asian countries, plus 12 games in Europe and America, a total of 47 games.

In other words, so far, Jiang Xiaofeng's "Who and Zhengfeng World Tour Concert" has held 47 concerts, which is still 100 concerts short of his goal of 53 concerts, and is still more than half away. , it can be said that there is a long way to go.

In order to achieve the goal of 100 concerts, Jiang Xiaofeng and his manager Chen Jiaying can only pin their hopes on our land of China.

The Yanjing concert market these years is mainly based on the two first-tier cities, Yanjing and Shanghai. If other cities can hold one or two concerts, it is already very good.

However, if Jiang Xiaofeng really wants to play the games, the easiest place to play is the Xiangjiang Hung Hom Stadium.

September 1998, 3, morning.

After finishing 15 overseas concerts, Jiang Xiaofeng returned to Yanjing accompanied by his assistants and bodyguards.

Jiang Xiaofeng didn't go home right away, but went to Century Records and had a small meeting with Hu Haiquan, Ke Zhaolei and other company executives.

After the meeting, taking advantage of others to leave, Hu Haiquan walked up to Jiang Xiaofeng and said mysteriously, "Boss, I recently met a buddy who sings very well. I want to form a group with him..."

After hearing Hu Haiquan's words, Jiang Xiaofeng probably guessed who the buddy he was talking about was, and said immediately: "Old Hu, don't rush to release the film, our company still needs you and Lao Ke."

"Well, I will strive to return to the mainland for development in the second half of this year, and shift the focus of my business back to Yanjing. As for the cooperation between you and your buddy, I will help you when the time comes, and I will help you write songs yourself, but the premise is , you must help me manage the company now."

When Hu Haiquan heard that Jiang Xiaofeng wanted to help him write a song, he was also very excited. This is what many popular singers dream of. He nodded quickly and said, "Okay, okay, boss, I know, don't worry, I will definitely work hard."

At this moment, the lady at the front desk called and told Jiang Xiaofeng: "Boss, someone is looking for you."

Jiang Xiaofeng asked suspiciously, "Who is it?"

The receptionist replied: "He said he was a film director."

Hearing what the front desk lady said, Jiang Xiaofeng's heart skipped a beat. He probably came to ask for money like Lao Jia again.

In fact, in the past two years, including Jia Zhangke, more than 10 directors have come to Jiang Xiaofeng for investment.

But because the other party was not well-known and the script was not very good, Jiang Xiaofeng basically refused.

ps. Thank you book friend 1979 for your reward and encouragement, thank you, thank you very much.
