Chinese Entertainment's Shining Star

"Sister Wei, should we, Mr. Nie, be the singer today?" Shi Xiaojing on the side was a little confused at first, and then she was filled with joy. She thought it was the organizer's consideration to use Nie Wei as today's singer. .

Shi Xiaojing was of course happy that her idol was taken more seriously.

But what she didn't notice was that the expression on Rex's face beside her was not clear at all, and there was even deep worry.

"Why JAY-Z?"

"How could it be that JAY-Z came out first?"

"Damn it, he even asked his wife to help him out. What happened?" Rex muttered worriedly. He didn't know if it was because Nie Wei had some temporary problem and couldn't perform, or for some other reason.

But if Nie Wei really performs in the order behind JAY-Z, then things will be really troublesome.

"Rex, look, our Nie is always a town singer." After Shi Xiaojing called Liu Wei for a long time, she patted Rex on the shoulder, but found that this new kind-hearted black guy had something wrong with his expression. , then asked: "Rex, why are you looking like this? There's no need to guess wrong. Don't worry, we won't laugh at you."

Shi Xiaojing was in a good mood and even made a little joke with Rex.

"Girl, now is not the time for you to laugh." Rex looked at the silly Shi Xiaojing speechlessly and reminded him kindly.

"Why?" Shi Xiaojing was puzzled, but Liu Wei on the side suddenly understood something, and her face suddenly sank.

Rex sighed and explained the reason to Shi Xiaojing.

"As you can see, even a die-hard Nie Wei fan like me feels that Nie Wei is not yet able to become a popular singer on a big stage like the American Music Festival. Of course, this is mainly related to the fact that Nie Wei is not focused on the music industry. I think if he devotes a year to making music and releasing an official album, tomorrow’s American Music Festival will definitely be his stage.”

"But this is all in the future. The trouble now is that for some reason, JAY-Z and Nie Wei actually switched the order of appearance."

"You can think about it, when a group of celebrities participate in commercial activities, they cannot stand casually. The more popular ones must stand in the middle, the less popular ones must stand aside, the seniors must stand forward, and the juniors must stand behind. , no matter who takes the wrong position, even if it is unintentional, even the celebrities themselves do not care, but their fans will be angry and scold those who "do not understand the rules."

"Just think about how celebrities pay so much attention to their positions, let alone the order of performances on such a big stage like today."

"I'm just saying all this. I'm afraid there will be trouble when Nie Wei appears." Rex spread his hands and said helplessly.

Even though the fans are currently cheering and shouting for the couple JAY-Z and Beyoncé’s collaborative stage, there is no sign of dissatisfaction at all, but Rex can guarantee that if Nie Wei really comes on stage next, by then The fans at the scene will 100% boo Nie Wei.

Especially today, many fans of JAY-Z came to the scene. No matter what the reason is, Nie Wei, who appeared last after JAY-Z, is destined to be hated by JAY-Z fans. They will definitely feel that His idol was treated unfairly.

"American fans shouldn't be so stingy, right?" Shi Xiaojing hesitated and asked tentatively, but as soon as she finished asking, Liu Wei on the side knocked her on the head.

"You think too much, and even if American fans are not stingy, don't you look at who is on the stage?"

"Beyoncé, and JAY-Z." Shi Xiaojing replied immediately, thinking that no wonder she looked familiar, it turned out to be Beyoncé, and could that fat black guy be JAY-Z?

Their English names are only one letter apart from J Lun, but they are not as handsome as J Lun. How did Beyoncé fall in love with him?

Because considering that changing the order of performances this time might affect Nie Wei, Shi Xiaojing and even Shi Xiaojing felt unhappy about JAY-Z on stage.

Liu Wei didn't know that in this short moment, Shi Xiaojing had already despised JAY-Z no less than a hundred times in her heart. She was still trying to explain to Shi Xiaojing the reason for her worries.

"Since you all know that it's JAY-Z on stage, you should know how famous he is. What's more, this is a surprise stage. It's not like you didn't hear how loud the cheers were when Beyoncé appeared."

"With such a hot stage, there will be a lot of pressure on the guests who will perform next. The most important thing is that the fans at the scene will look at our Mr. Nie with colored glasses." Liu Wei said at the end, she was a little anxious, her voice They couldn't help but get a lot bigger.

Rex glanced at the two girls with some sympathy, silently feeling sorry for Nie Wei. It was originally the best stage to showcase his music, but he didn't expect to encounter such a thing.

"Then why did Mr. Nie agree to change positions?" After listening to Liu Wei and Rex's words, Shi Xiaojing was very anxious, wondering if there was some conspiracy, or maybe these singers wanted to give Nie the only one. Show off your power'?

In fact, Shi Xiaojing was completely overthinking.

Nie Wei had doubts when he was notified of the order change at first, but when JAY-Z and Beyoncé came together to apologize, the look and tone of their eyes made Nie Wei dispel 90% of his doubts.

According to what the other party said, they encountered something urgent and every second counted. As for the specific matter, Nie Wei didn't ask much.

But for the other party's request, Nie Wei could think of the negative impact of changing the order on himself in an instant, but he still agreed to the other party.

"Hey, brother, thank you very much. I will try my best to explain the reason to the fans when I leave the stage. I will also not forget your help today. When you come to New York, I will definitely invite you to my house."

"You're welcome." Nie Wei didn't mind. He was confident in his live performance.

Even if JAY-Z didn't explain, Nie Wei was confident that he could conquer the audience with his music and singing voice and turn boos into cheers.

It can be seen that JAY-Z was really anxious. Originally, his time on the stage was 20 minutes, because he had to sing two songs and had 10 minutes to interact with fans. This was also the "benefit" of being the singer of the day.

However, I don't know how JAY-Z discussed with the organizer. Anyway, the 20-minute performance time was directly compressed to 5 minutes. Not only did the original two songs reduce to one song, but even the time for fan interaction was cancelled.

When JAY-Z and Beyonce appeared, Nie Wei also brought Shu Chang to the backstage, and Cheng Zimo and several bodyguards were waiting here for a long time.

"Shu Chang will be handed over to you in a while, please protect her well for me." When Nie Wei asked Cheng Zimo to take Shu Chang to the front scene, he did not forget to remind him.

"Master, don't worry." Cheng Zimo promised.

In these years, he not only learned kung fu, but Nie Wei also paid to send him to a bodyguard company, where he learned a lot of professional knowledge of bodyguards. He can pat his chest and say that he is a professional in how to protect a person under what circumstances.

"Husband, come on." Before leaving, Shu Chang did not forget to clench her little fist and cheer Nie Wei up.

Nie Wei smiled and waved at her, and only breathed a sigh of relief after watching Shu Chang, Cheng Zimo and others disappear in the backstage.

There must be pressure in his heart, but Nie Wei thinks this is good. This slight tension and pressure will make him enter the state of excitement faster.

On the stage, JAY-Z and Beyoncé sang a song called "Crazy-in-love" together. This is a classic duet song of the two. The two people's live performance is also top-notch. After Nie Wei arrived backstage, he heard the cheers of the fans in front of him one after another. It was really like the volume, making the whole scene seem to be shaking.

Even several staff members in the backstage were shaking their heads slightly, twisting their waists, and swaying with the rhythm.

"Hi, Nie Wei." Just as Nie Wei was adjusting his state, he suddenly heard someone greeting him. He turned around and saw that there was more than one person, but a rock band.

"Maroon5?" Nie Wei looked at the five people in front of him and asked uncertainly.

Hearing Nie Wei calling out the name of their band, the five people's expressions instantly brightened up. The captain Adam Levine introduced happily: "Yes, we are Maroon 5. I didn't expect you to know our name. I am the captain Adam, and this is the drummer..."

After introducing the members one by one, Adam said: "Nie Wei, I have seen your video on YouTube. Your live performance is really great. The song "SUMMER-FUNK" is so popular, and your wonderful singing has contributed greatly to it."

"Thank you for the compliment." Nie Wei smiled and nodded to thank him, showing modesty and politeness.

"I want to say, if possible, how about we have a chance to cooperate?" Adam Levine said frankly. In fact, after knowing that Nie Wei came to the scene today, he has been paying attention and wanted to get in touch with Nie Wei.

Because Nie Wei's music attracted him, he felt that if he wanted to make Maroon 5 really popular, then cooperating with Nie Wei might be a good way.

You should know that since its establishment in 1994, Maroon5 has released three albums in total. The first album is a quadruple platinum album with sales of over 10 million, and it also won the Grammy Award for Best New Artist.

Although the sales of the following two albums cannot be said to be bad, for Maroon5, who won the Grammy Award for Best New Artist upon debut, it is on the decline.

The band peaked at debut, with overestimated potential and limited talent. This is the evaluation they received after releasing their third album.

Maroon5 members are naturally unwilling, especially Adam Levine. He feels that his and the band's performance should not be like this. They still have room for improvement. As long as there is a good title song, they can perform it to perfection and let all fans know that they are not out of ideas, and they have the strength that is not inferior to those top singers.

Nie Wei is naturally no stranger to Maroon5.

Before 2012, the band's development was not smooth. It was a typical peak as soon as it debuted. The media's evaluation of them over the years was actually not wrong. However, after 2012, Maroon 5, which had accumulated energy for more than ten years, finally exploded.

They released three albums in more than ten years, and released three more in just two years. They became more and more popular every year, becoming one of the most well-known bands in the United States, and won the honor of the most popular band of the American people for two consecutive years.

Nie Wei naturally couldn't forget such a well-known band, but the other party had not yet become famous at this time, so they were surprised that Nie Wei recognized them at first sight.

"There is a chance." Nie Wei gave an ambiguous answer.

After all, now is not the time to discuss this matter. For Nie Wei, the most important thing at the moment is the stage performance in a while.

Adam did not expect Nie Wei to make any promises, nor did he bother Nie Wei.

Five minutes passed quickly. After the performance, JAY-Z took the microphone and apologized to the audience. Then he took over the host's job and personally introduced Nie Wei, who was going to appear next.

"Now let us welcome my best brother, Nie Wei, with the enthusiasm as hot as magma!!!"

JAY-Z's introduction made Nie Wei's head black. When did this black and fat guy become his best brother?

Amid cheers, Nie Wei took the microphone and walked onto the stage.

Shi Xiaojing kept trying to cheer for Nie Wei loudly in the audience, but she was also very nervous in her heart, fearing that Nie Wei would be booed after he went on stage. However, the thing that made the three people feel like booing for a long time did not happen. It is not known whether JAY-Z's words worked or Nie Wei was really charming.

Anyway, when he went on stage, the audience in the audience were all very respectful and shouted excitedly.

"No booing, no one booing." Shi Xiaojing shouted happily when she saw this.

"Uh... it seems that I overthink it." Rex was a little embarrassed when he breathed a sigh of relief. After all, he had just said so many alarmist words, but in the end, he was slapped in the face by the audience.

"You thought too much. I knew that Mr. Nie was the most popular wherever he went." Shi Xiaojing rolled her eyes at Rex, but she was not angry that Rex had frightened her for a long time. She also knew that Rex's concern was well-intentioned.

"Hearing your cheers, it seems that everyone doesn't mind that I am the last singer to perform tonight." Standing on the stage, Nie Wei was in a good mood and joked with the audience.

A round of boos sounded, but most people did not have any malice, just responding to Nie Wei's teasing and joking remarks.

Of course, there were some who really wanted to boo Nie Wei, such as the Asian man that Rex and Shi Xiaojing had met before, but such voices were so insignificant in a crowd of 100,000 that they did not affect Nie Wei on the stage at all.

"OK, I heard expectations in your boos, so... SUMMER-FUNK, GO!!!"

As Nie Wei's voice fell, the live band played drums, Nie Wei snapped his fingers, and along with the prelude, cheers rang out at the scene, as if this was the only way to prove how much they loved the song.

The sound waves were like waves, and Shi Xiaojing, who was mixed in the crowd, felt that her ears were going deaf. There were cheers and screams all around, which made her doubt whether she could hear Nie Wei's singing in a while.

However, this change of clothes was eliminated after a few seconds. Accompanied by dynamic music, in the sound waves, Nie Wei's voice was like a water column ejected from an underwater volcano, breaking the sound waves and reaching everyone's ears clearly.
