Low Key Star

  Chapter 179 [179] Acceptance Speech

The Prisoner Bull Award is the youngest of the three major music awards, but it is also the one with the most awards, with a total of more than 25 awards. Each award is counted as three nominations, and there are 75 finalists—of course, Not everyone who is nominated will go.

  In the official shortlist for Prisoner Bull Awards, Zhang Yang received a total of seven nominations.

  Best lyricist of the year: "East Wind Breaks"

  Best Composer of the Year: "Huo Zongxia"

  Best song of the year: "Sunny Day", "Eastern Wind Breaks", "Thousands of Miles Away"

  Rookie of the Year: Zhang Yang

  Most Popular Album of the Year: "Voice of the Sea"

  Among them, for the "Most Popular Song of the Year" award, a total of four songs were shortlisted. If each song has the same probability of winning, then the probability of Zhang Yang winning this heavyweight award is close to 80%.

  Although the Prisoner Bull Award is not comparable to Nuwa and Phoenix, as one of the three awards in the Chinese music scene, its credibility and influence far exceed other random awards. As soon as the shortlist was announced, it immediately caused quite a stir in the industry.

  However, no one would have any objection to him getting so many nominations as a newcomer. After all, the real achievements and quality lie there.

Lin Suyuan originally didn't plan to participate in the Prisoner Bull Music Festival, because the year before last, she also won three nominations for the best female singer of the year, the best album of the year, and the best song of the year at the third prisoner cow music festival. After that, none of the three nominations won, and only one best lyricist.

  —She didn't write the word yet.

When Lin Suyuan made her debut, she was also an extremely dazzling talented girl. She was among the top singers in the Chinese music scene with her debut as the pinnacle. Moreover, unlike Zhang Yang, Zhang Yang's singing skills have been criticized by many people. Recognized top-notch.

   This kind of person naturally has no lack of arrogance. Last year, the Prisoner Bull Award gave Lin Suyuan five more nominations, including two awards for singer and album of the year, but she was not allowed to participate again.

  Prisoner is not only a music festival after all, but there is also the Prisoner music platform behind it. It is not good if the relationship is stiff. This year, people have given enough face. Lin Suyuan and Zhang Yang are both nominated for seven, and Seagull naturally has to express itself.

  During the company meeting, Wang Qingyuan personally persuaded Lin Suyuan to attend, so as not to cause a strain on the relationship with Prison Niu.

Zhang Yang's second album is still under intense production, and the recording work has basically been completed. Zhang Yang's next main task is still to shoot MVs everywhere. The cooperation with Wei Xiang on the last album was very pleasant, so this album will continue to cooperate. Responsible for the three songs "Chrysanthemum Terrace", "Simple Love" and "Xingqing".

  Thanks to Gu Qixian's "care", Zhang Yang's request for leave was finally a little more relaxed. Amid the busy schedule, the 20th will soon be approaching.

The Prisoner Bull Music Festival is held in Jiangning. Zhang Yang originally wanted Lin Yiran to accompany him, but she felt bad, so Zhang Yang had to accompany Lin Suyuan and arrived in Jiangning one day earlier. When the airport landed, Zhang Yang finally saw it with his own eyes for the first time. The gap between himself and the top divas.

This is not reflected in the fans, but the enthusiasm of the media reporters for the two is not at the same level at all. This is naturally due to the rumors of "Lin Suyuan and the Prisoner Bull Award falling out" two years ago, but the two are now. There is indeed still an objective gap in the coffee position.

   Zhang Yang met many acquaintances and familiar names in the hotel.

  Yinchao's five mentors, only Wang Chuxi did not come, Ling Ran, Tong Wan, Lu Yuan, Xiao Jingyu all arrived, besides that, there was also Li Youcao who had helped Zhang Yang canvass outside the venue.

  As well as Lu Yimo and Wen Bi, who helped Shangguan Qiyu solicit votes, these two are first-line singers. Although they are a bit outdated now, they still have a lot of background, and they are still not comparable to ordinary singers.

  Of course, neither Lin Suyuan nor Zhang Yang are ordinary singers.

  Lin Suyuan is in the sky, needless to say, in terms of popularity, Zhang Yang can stabilize the two. However, although there were disagreements during Yinchao, it was not a direct conflict.

Although Zhang Yang had recorded the two of them in his notebook, he would not show it to his face. When they met, he was very polite. Wen Bi was also very warm, but Lu Yimo was a bit put on airs. Wen Bi introduced After him, Zhang Yang took the initiative to greet him, but he liked to ignore them, and after the greetings, he only talked to Lin Suyuan.

  But Lin Suyuan also ignored him.

Except for this episode, overall, Zhang Yang is quite satisfied with this trip to the Prisoner Niu Music Festival, because after the Yin Chao, he rarely enjoys star treatment, and participating in this music festival, from the reception, The room and board, and even the atmosphere, have a feeling of being "under the spotlight".

Although the gold content is at the bottom of the three awards, the awards ceremony is still very grand due to the simultaneous live broadcast of the TV station. It is early winter, and the female stars are still walking the red carpet in off-the-shoulder and backless dresses. Lin Suyuan is not immune, wearing a An off-the-shoulder crystal-colored dress, which outlines the beautiful curves of the shoulders and back. The skin is fair and delicate, very moving

  —Zhang Yang once again gets a gender advantage because he can wear a coat.

The two arrived in front of the red carpet in the same car. As soon as they got out of the car, the whole space was filled with the shouts of fans on both sides. It was the first time for Zhang Yang to experience such an occasion. He was so nervous that it was hard to hide. He tried to open his eyes wide, but he couldn't see anything. Clearly, amidst the yelling of reporters on both sides, they were standing still for people to take pictures, and all the poses they had planned before were completely forgotten.

  Walk down the red carpet, calm down, recall the cramped and stiff feeling just now, wishing Luoshen could activate a time-reversing function and do it all over again—if it doesn’t work once, just do it a few more times.

   Unfortunately, Luoshen does not have this function.

After passing the red carpet, I will be interviewed by the media first. Of course, there is no need for an old driver like Lin Suyuan. Although Zhang Yang is a novice, he keeps in mind the principle of saying less and making fewer mistakes. No matter what these reporters ask, they are all modest and conservative. Nomination is approval official answer.

Entering the awards hall, the two seats were separated by two rows, without the old driver, Zhang Yang was a little embarrassed, because his seat was in the middle, and most of the people he saw next to him didn’t recognize him—those who did know him also belonged to those who knew the information , I know who it is, but I haven't met him.

   Fortunately, although he is a newcomer, even if you look at all the participants tonight, his popularity is extremely high. As long as you lower your posture and take the initiative to greet him, the other party will respond enthusiastically and actively look for topics, so you won't be too embarrassed.

  Not too embarrassing means embarrassment within the normal range.

  So when seeing Shangguan Qiyu approaching, Zhang Yang felt a little pleasantly surprised.

The relationship between the two is not very good, but at least there is a relationship between "Yin Chao", and after the Yin Chao ended, Shangguan Qiyu's conversation with Zhang Yang—at least Shangguan Qiyu felt that he had a good relationship with Zhang Yang, so After sitting down, the performance is quite familiar and natural.

As more musicians arrived and took their seats, the award ceremony officially began soon. Tong Wan appeared as the host and warmed up with a male singer. Amidst the laughter of everyone who cooperated or did not cooperate, the official ceremony soon began. awards.

  The first to be announced is "Best Composer in Performance Category", and then Best Orchestra, Best MV, Best Cantonese Song... The seventh award is finally Zhang Yang's appearance.

  The best lyrics of the year.

   Nominations: "East Wind Breaks", "The Sound of Xiao Xiao", "The Bell of That Year"

The MV of Dongfengpo appeared on the big screen. In the mottled light and shadow, Zhang Yang looked at the camera with melancholy eyes, and sang softly "Who is playing Dongfengpo on the pipa" - Zhang Yang didn't feel proud sitting in the audience, I just feel guilty and embarrassed.

He remembered that "Dongfeng Po" won many awards in his previous life, but he didn't have much impression of which awards. He asked Luoshen, but she said, "If you want to relieve tension and embarrassment through chatting, why not spend time with Shangguan Qiyu?" Let's chat" was choked to death.

  After half a minute of wheezing his appetite, Tong Wan finally read out the final award result: ""Dongfeng Po"! Congratulations to Zhang Yang!"

   This result is a bit unexpected, but it is reasonable, because the biggest possibility for Zhang Yang not to win the award is his qualifications. The quality and popularity of this song are obvious to all.

Zhang Yang was not taken aback, but after being pleasantly surprised, he suddenly realized that he didn't seem to remember the speech he had thought up before, so he stood up amidst the waves of applause, bowed, and walked towards the stage while still asking Luoshen in his mind: "I What was the testimonial you wrote earlier?"

  Luo Shen's crisp and sweet voice revealed a hint of gloating: "Have you forgotten?"

   "Bullshit!"

   Zhang Yang still remembered what she had just choked on himself, but now he was clearly gloating, and said angrily, "Don't forget what I did with you!"

  Luo Shen giggled: "It's such a coincidence, I forgot too!"

"I…"

  Zhang Yang managed to hold back the word he wanted to say, and said through gritted teeth: "Next time, if I count on you again, I will take your surname!"

There was still some distance from the stage, Zhang Yang tried his best to recall the draft he had prepared before, it seemed that the award for "Dongfeng Po" was different from other songs, the most meaningful ones were "Dongfeng Po", "Sunny Sky", "Huo Zongxia", "Same Table You"..."You at the same table" was not nominated...What the **** is it?

   Zhang Yang was only thinking about it, and almost walked past Lin Suyuan who got up to congratulate him. Finally, she was good-looking and attracted attention, otherwise it would be a joke.

  In addition to Lin Suyuan, Ling Ran, Lu Yuan, and Xiao Jingyu, the three music instructors also expressed their congratulations. The live broadcast camera accurately captured the expressions of relief and surprise of these people.

   As for the portrayal of the true mood, it is better to practice in advance, or the instinct has already been formed, so naturally no one will pursue it.

"congratulations!"

Before Zhang Yang came to the stage, Tong Wan began to congratulate from afar, and opened his arms at the same time. Zhang Yang didn't like this kind of etiquette, but it was naturally impossible to refuse at this time, the body was separated by a long distance, and the arms touched Tong Wan's body After a while, they separated, and couldn't help saying: "Thank you, Teacher Tongwan..."

  Tong Wan faked an angry smile and said, "Call me sister!"

Although there is a relationship with Yinchao, it is only a draft after all. In the future, in this circle, "brother" and "sister" are the official names. When Tong Wan said so, Zhang Yang followed suit and immediately changed his tune and shouted: "Sister Tongwan".

  But the first time I yelled, the voice was very low—I always had to show my incompatibility, otherwise, wouldn’t it be revealing my true thoughts if I yelled out impatiently?

  The guest presenting the award is veteran king Zhao Yuezhi. He is Wang Qingyuan's student and Lin Suyuan's senior brother. Now he has started his own company, but he has not separated from Seagull. During the Yinchao finals, he also connected to the scene to help Zhang Yang solicit votes.

With this layer of relationship, the communication during the award ceremony will not be dry and just say thank you. Zhao Yuezhi even joked: "It's only been three months, and you came here to win the award. Maybe three years later, it will be you Give me an award."

   This sentence was unexpected, and the effect was not bad. Many people laughed along with it, but many people were shocked. Although Zhao Yuezhi's words were ridicule, they also had practical significance

  —According to Zhang Yang's development momentum, who can say for sure what will happen to him three years from now?

After the awards were presented, it was time for Zhang Yang to give his speech. Holding the trophy carved with a golden prison cow, he thought for a while in front of the microphone, and then said "uh-" and said, "I'm a little excited, sorry... I can get it I didn't expect this award, but to be honest, this kind of unexpectedness is because I don't think I can really get it. In fact, I wrote my acceptance speech in advance."

  The audience roared with laughter.

   Zhang Yang continued with a little embarrassment: "But now... I can't remember a single word."

   There was another burst of laughter.

   Luoshen didn't know whether it was his conscience, or he was worried that his embarrassment would affect the belief of fans, so he finally reminded at this time: "Childhood sweetheart!"
