China Entertainment 2000

"Although I admit that I am indeed very popular right now, this kind of situation shouldn't be something that a junior like me can get involved in, right?"

After putting down the invitation letter, Zhou Yi moved his butt comfortably on his chair and was very puzzled that he could receive an invitation to the Chinese and Korean singing concert.

The China-Korea Song Contest has been held since 1999. The organizers are China's CCTV and South Korea's KBS TV station. It is held once a year.

It is claimed that the top musicians from China and South Korea join hands to perform a music feast for the people of the two countries, but in fact, from a fan perspective, this thing is not even as popular as the global Chinese song he won last year. List within list,

At the very least, fans can get the trophy from the Global Chinese Chart to compete with crickets.

If you want to participate in the Sino-Korean song concert, especially the Sino-Korean song concert in the early years of the new century, the only advantage for Zhou Yi is that he can be gilded, and he can become familiar with the real big guys in the system. They leave a little impression on young people.

After all, in the early years of the 21st century, officials still attached great importance to the China-Korean Song Concert.

The reason why Naying can squeeze out Tian Zhen at the official level is the most obvious sign of the Sino-Korean singing competition.

Speaking more broadly, those who can participate in this party will at least not be called mainland singers, Hong Kong and Taiwan singers, and they will represent China on stage.

It is precisely because of this that, for the sake of stability, there were actually no young people among the Chinese singers in the first two sessions.

"According to the information I received, you really didn't have a chance. But thanks to the big noise you made on Treasure Island, someone noticed you."

Speaking of this, Zhou Jianhui suppressed the excitement in his heart and tried to repeat the "gossip" he had heard in a calm tone: "The ban on you by Baodao is entirely due to your mainland status. After all, you are there. It has a bit of influence among the young people around.

“So this incident was a big deal, and a few people couldn’t stand it and wanted to fight back, but they were stopped.

"Then, I don't know if it's someone related to your hometown or just someone from your hometown. Anyway, someone thought that you, a half-year-old child, can't suffer such an unreasonable loss, so they directly wrote your name in China and South Korea. It’s on the song concert reference list.

"It's rare that a few people from Peking University have unified their opinions. After convincing a few people from Tsinghua University and National People's Congress, your name was sent directly."

"..."

Hometown?

After suddenly remembering another meaning of his hometown province, Zhou Yi suddenly realized.

That's okay.

Seeing that Zhou Yi didn't seem to take it seriously, Zhou Jianhui then emphasized: "I know that you young people may not care much about such serious occasions, but I need to tell you that this year's event is of great significance.

“First, the higher authorities are trying their best to expand their international influence and strive for a safe and successful bid for the Olympics. Communicating with South Korea through the China-Korea Song Contest is a window that the higher authorities attach great importance to;

"Second, South Korea is about to host the World Cup next year, and they are also trying every means to expand their cultural influence. The China-Korea Song Concert will be broadcast directly on KBS TV station during prime time.

"That's why CCTV will send you an invitation letter nine months in advance to prepare you well. Do you understand what I mean?"

The third China-Korea Song Contest in 2001 was held in November, but now it is February.

Generally speaking, even if the candidate is confirmed, the singer will not be notified so far in advance. You can imagine how special this year is.

"I'm not careless, I'm just thinking about what I need to prepare. Do I choose the songs myself? Or will CCTV help me choose?"

Zhou Yi chuckled, chewed raisins and asked, "Or do you want me to write a new song?"

"It's not decided yet, but I guess one of your songs "Happy Worship" or "Have to Love" should be selected, and "Jing Wu Men" is also possible.

"After all, apart from these two songs in your album that have data in Korea, there is only one song "Jingwumen" which is relatively unpopular in China. It is the dance song that you used as a cushion to set off the title song. .”

When he said this, Zhou Jianhui's expression was somewhat strange: "You can't understand Chinese songs over there, and because the company gave you the title of Little Aaron Kwok over there, your "Jing Wu Men" was composed of these three songs. It is the most popular, many young Koreans are imitating the dance you danced in the MV.

"Especially in nightclubs and other places, your chair dance is performed by many nightclub workers."

This can be regarded as a flower inside the wall and fragrance outside the wall in a sense.

"..."

6.

Zhou Yi, who had a weird look on his face, thought of some scenes that were not suitable for children: "Then I think "Jing Wu Men" will definitely not be selected."

"If you have confidence in yourself, you can also write a song specifically for this Chinese-Korean song competition and submit it. Otherwise, I think there are several songs in the second album you submitted that are quite suitable. The one you described as Those Chinese-style songs.”

Because of the recent controversy, Zhou Jianhui had to go to Warner Wheatfield in the mainland to discuss matters related to his second major with Zhou Yi.

When talking about the second album, Zhou Jianhui's expression became visibly excited.

He didn't understand any music genre, but he knew how much the so-called establishment of a sect could help a singer's status.

Both the first and second specialties were able to create a new style of music, which is really rare in my life.

Once the concept proposed by the second album is recognized by the mainstream music market, when the Chinese pop music world mentions the two concepts of hiphop and new Chinese style, Zhouyi will be an unavoidable monument.

"Can I still write my own songs in this situation?"

Zhou Yi was really shocked this time.

Zhou Jianhui smiled: "If you are lucky, take a closer look at the three female singers who are booming in the music market. Whose songs are they producing?

"There has suddenly been such a big commotion on Treasure Island, and you are the first one to be blocked. All information about you will naturally be collected and handed over.

"I'm afraid that many people know your reputation as a creative genius. Considering that some people think highly of you, and combined with the injustice you suffered in Treasure Island, what's wrong with giving you some preferential treatment?

“But if you want to write, it’s best to keep it simple, focus on easy-to-understand themes, don’t write about fancy concepts, and the content should be positive.

"Just your "Jiangnan" and "Dongfeng Po", if I didn't read the lyrics and just look at the song title, I wouldn't know what it was about."

Zhou Jianhui, who had not yet heard the finished product, put forward his own suggestions.

Zhou Yi readily accepted: "I understand, what about yellow people?"

After hearing this, Zhou Jianhui immediately slapped his thigh: "Okay, this theme is okay, everyone is of the yellow race. How do you plan to write it? How much time will it take? What is the name of the song? I will go to CCTV in person to help you negotiate.

"The title of the song is "Yellow Race", and the content is absolutely uplifting."

Zhou Yi grinned and smiled extremely brightly.

The melody of "Yellow Race" ensures its popularity, and the lyrics are absolutely suitable for this moment, especially after the Olympic bid is successful.

Soon, Naying, who had also received an invitation to the Chinese-Korean singing competition, also learned that her superiors were contacting Zhou Yi, and her eyes suddenly widened——

"Really or not? Is he CCTV's own son? At the age of 20, attending a Chinese and Korean song concert?

"If this continues, won't the next step be to attend the Spring Festival Gala at the age of 21?"

The agent on the side immediately corrected him: "To be precise, he is nineteen years old. Twenty years old is our country's imaginary age calculation after the Chinese New Year. The birth date on his ID card is December 13, 1981, and his birthday is not yet Arrived."

Naying: "..."

A few days later, Zhou Yi, who had no idea that he had become CCTV's own son in the eyes of some people, came to the CCTV Broadcasting Building. The big leader he wanted to see had not yet been seen, but Zhou Yi saw a familiar figure first -

"Zhou Yi? Why are you here?"

Sa Beining, who was holding a stack of files, was still a little unbelievable when he saw the person coming.

Seeing this, Zhou Yi immediately joked: "I'm going to do an issue of "Today's Statement" with you. What, are you welcome? The material is my recent experience."
