Chapter 25 Grammys (This chapter is free as an apology)

ps: I was almost crazy after being reviewed these two days. Yesterday's chapter was revised repeatedly, so I had to send it again, but it became a paid chapter.

This Grammy is expected to last more than three hours. The dark black stage layout can better show the charm of the music itself. It does not require colorful lights or a gorgeous stage. It can only return to the essence of music, and only the collision between sound and sound. Perhaps this is the biggest innovation of this Grammy.

A song "Highway" from the Australian Ac\/DC band opened the curtain for this Grammy Awards ceremony. This rock band that has been established for more than 40 years is still exuding their vitality. They have been nominated for the Grammy Awards many times and entered the American Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2003.

The next appearance was British singer Tom Jones, who was born in 1940 and was 75 years old. He collaborated with female singer Jesse J to perform his classic song "Lost Love". The familiar melody also evoked countless people's memories of the glorious past of this old singer.

There are many veteran bands and veteran artists abroad. Although they are over 60 years old, they are still active in the music industry and occasionally create some classic songs, exuding vitality that is not inferior to young people. It is completely different from China. After becoming successful, some artists retire or transform into mentors of various variety shows, hanging themselves high for their descendants to worship.

Shen Fang doesn't want to comment too much about this difference, but he believes that as long as a musician maintains enough love for music, he will always be young.

If we were to select the oldest singer tonight, Tony Bennett was definitely worthy of it. He was nearly ninety years old when he was born in 1926. A song "Face to Face" he collaborated with lady                                                                                                  �

After the "Best Country Music" Awards, Shen Fang and Qin Mohan appeared behind the curtain. Although Qin Mohan, who has experienced many big scenes, was the first time to be a Grammy, she was able to adjust her mentality without Shen Fang telling her that everyone in the audience was all pumpkins.

There is no fancy appearance ceremony, only simple guitar accompaniment and Qin Mohan's slightly lazy song prelude:

“la        di        da        di        da        da

la        di        da        di        da        da

la        di        da        di        da        da

la        da        da

i                                                                                                                               

ao                                                                                                                              �

…”

Qin Mohan and Shen Fang, who were wearing light blue evening dresses, stood under the lights in a completely different style, a kind of harmony and indifference. The more soothing country folk songs made the scene, which had been in an excited state since the opening, feel a little calm for the first time.

After the singing of one song, many viewers on the scene faced the couple from China for the first time. It turned out that they were an excellent pair of musicians, just as the host introduced.

The two people who returned to their seats were kindness given by the singers around them. In this music hall, only music is the best tool for communication.

Chen Fang and Qin Mohan's performances also set a good example for Han Xiao, calming down her originally nervous mood.

Nearly an hour after the opening, the "Best Newcomer of the Year" award was prepared to be awarded on the spot. This was the most likely award Han Xiao won, and it was also the initial expectation of Chen Fang's group.

The award presenter was Tony Bennett, the oldest singer in the audience, and the award-winning guest was Han Xiao, born in 1994. Two musicians, who were nearly 70 years apart in age, completed a nearly sacred handover and inheritance ceremony on this stage.

Megan Terina, who was nominated, looked at Han Xiao with a bright smile on the stage with anger. Today may be the last time Megan Terina attended such a grand ceremony. Under the pressure of ABC TV and Universal Records, Epic Records is ready to give up on her. If she can get the "best newcomer on difficulty" today, she may have a glimmer of hope. Now it seems that this opportunity has been obliterated.

Han Xiao held the phonograph that had just engraved the words in the backstage in his hand, and was stopped by the media from China CCTV in the aisle. No matter how many awards Han Xiao will win in the future, the significance of this first professional award is absolutely extraordinary. The excited Han Xiao thanked the person he just thanked on the stage again to the CCTV camera.

After winning the award of "Best Newcomer of the Year", everyone was already satisfied. When Han Xiao returned to his seat, the phonograph in his hand was taken by Chen Fang and Qin Mohan for a while. Especially Qin Mohan, he was envious. While admiring, he looked at Chen Fang next to him. She also knew that such professional music awards might never be won. She could only look forward to whether the guy around her could win one, so that a small phonograph could be added to the honor cabinet at home.

As time goes by, the subsequent awards are getting heavier. In the "Best Single of the Year" award, although Qin Mohan in the audience still held his hands tightly and looked at the award presenter on the stage to announce the award results. The song "dream                                                                                                                                                                                                                                �

Despite her regret, Chen Fang still gave Han Xiao a hug. Han Xiao smiled firmly at Chen Fang, and she was about to start performing. Even if she missed the best single this year, she believed that with Chen Fang's song "hello", she would definitely make a comeback next year.

After the end of "The Heart of Encouragement" sung by Baker and the Play Band, James Todd Smith (ll                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              �

Foreign hosts basically like to make fun of themselves or make fun of the guests on site, but James connects the song "hello" with emotion. I don't know if he really feels it or the essence of being an excellent host.

All the dark black stage lights were extinguished, and only a chasing light hit a lifting platform in the center of the stage. A simple piano prelude, Han Xiao, wearing a black evening dress, slowly rose from the lifting platform. A brief silence, gradually soothing piano sound followed, and a magnetic and penetrating sound sounded:

“hello        it''s        me,

i        was        w        if        after        all        these        years        you''d        like        to        meet,

to                 go

…”

Unlike the New Year's Eve concert in Times Square, it was outdoors, which was even more noisy and noisy. Although the audience was addicted to the audio amplifier, it was not as deafening as it was at the Grammy Awards Ceremony today.

Most of the guests on the scene were professional singers. They have been engaged in music for many years. They can clearly distinguish how jealous Han Xiao’s talent is. The magnetic mid-bass, sonorous and powerful high notes, strong explosive power, perfect treble performance and impeccable emotional expression for this song. The extremely wide range spanning 5 octaves makes people unbelievable. This is the petite Asian girl in front of her.

All the audiences on the scene were immersed in this song, immersed in Han Xiao's mellow and magnetic bass, solid and translucent high notes. After Han Xiao's song was finished, the audience gave out nearly three minutes of warm applause. This was a greeting to the excellence of the song "hello", a warm encouragement and unreserved appreciation for the Asian girl in front of her, and a tribute to the rise of this newcomer who might become another queen-level singer.

Later, Han Xiao won the award for "Best Female Singer of the Year" and was encouraged by the guests on site.

There were three nominations in total and two awards won. Han Xiao became the biggest winner tonight. The photos of two phonographs in her hand were also sent back to China as soon as possible. She just turned 20 this year and was hailed as the "new generation of queen" by Chinese media. Her invitation applications for her have been filled with the desks of the Wild Fox Company.

The next afternoon, Universal Records held a press conference. Han Xiao, the winner of the two Grammy Awards, officially announced that he had signed a contract with Universal Records. In the future, all contracts in addition to the Chinese region will be handed over to Universal Records. Then it was announced that Han Xiao's new song "hello" sung at Grammy last night was officially launched in major music malls.

The song "hello" has purchased more than 100,000 in just one day. In the first week of the chart, it won the first place in the Billboard rankings with sales of over one million, breaking the record of "the highest single sales in the first week of the United States". At the same time, it became the 24th "first week champion single" on the Billboard Top 100 Singles Chart. For a time, this girl from China became a hot singer.

Han Xiao is going to participate in the recording of the 2015 Spring Festival Gala. Regarding her award, the program team has sent a congratulatory message, and also tactfully proposed whether she can return to China for a makeup rehearsal. On February 10, Chen Fang and Qin Mohan, who had been traveling overseas for more than 20 days, were preparing to set off to return to Yanjing. Those who were traveling with Han Xiao, Qu Xiaoxiao, Tang Yuan and Lin Susu who followed the plane.

It was night when I left Los Angeles. Lin Susu, who also saw the bright starry sky from a high altitude for the first time, was also shocked.

"My sister has been on the private plane for a lot, but she has never taken such a rich one." Lin Susu looked at Qin Mohan and suggested: "You said that if I hang the stars in the Wild Fox Company, we will become a family. Can we often take your planes to play together?"

"Don't even think about it, don't take advantage of me." Qin Mohan was about to agree, but Chen Fang refused first: "How much has your starlight been poured into it since its establishment? Do you want to ask me to fill the hole for you? There is no way!"

"You!" Lin Susu pointed to Chen Fang and said, "A movie "Macau Storm" made a lot of money at the box office."

Chen Fang curled his lips: "Miss, Boya Film and Television has made a lot of money, have you made a return on your investment?"

Lin Susu settled the accounts and did not make any profit, but she still said stubbornly: "How do you know that I can't make money in the next drama? Maybe "The Great Wall" will be sold out. We also invited Matt Damon, Liu Dehua, Chen Gengxing, and Lu Han from your company. Maybe this hand can fill the gap and I can make it back."
