"The winner of the 2015 Chinese Music Chart's Best Newcomer of the Year Award is …"
"Cui Zhengzhi!"
"Congratulations Cui Zhengzhi!"
When Liu Zonghan revealed the answer to the riddle, [Whale TV] Lu Chen's live broadcast room suddenly exploded!
Countless fans watching the live broadcast in front of the computer couldn't believe what had just happened. It felt as if they had been hit hard in the head with a stick. Many people were stunned.
"What the!"
"How could it be Cui Zhengzhi? Is there a mistake? "
"It's too dark. It's a joke. Who can be Big and Stronger than Lu Chen as the Best Newcomer?"
"Who can tell me who Cui Zhengzhi is? I've never heard of him. What songs did he sing? "
"Oh, Shonan TV is like this. I've expected it."
"I won't watch Shonan TV in the future. It's too annoying!"
"Let's go. It's boring!"
Not only in the live broadcast room, but also in blogs, forums, and QQ groups, Lu Chen's fans are complaining.
Previously, it was widely believed that the Best Newcomer of the Year Award was the first music award that Lu Chen was most likely to win. They optimistically believed that he could complete a double win and win the Best Composition Award.
There are even many fans who expressed dissatisfaction with Lu Chen's only two nominations.
As a result, he didn't even win the most confident award!
How can he not be angry?
At this moment, in the Xiangjiang Grand Theater, Cui Zhengzhi took the crystal award from Liu Zonghan on stage.
It's just that the annual Newcomer King's expression was more or less embarrassed, because the reaction of the audience was a bit face-slapping, which made this gilded honor lose a lot of luster.
He held the award and said into the microphone, "Thank you Shonan TV, thank you Xiangjiang Satellite TV …"
The thank-you speech was dry, without much passion and excitement.
The reaction of the audience at the scene was finally a little enthusiastic. After Cui Zhengzhi finished speaking, they also gave him a lot of applause, so that he would not be embarrassed to the point of being unable to get off the stage.
After all, everyone was disgusted with Shonan TV's actions, and they didn't have much of an opinion about Cui Zhengzhi.
But in fact, Cui Zhengzhi knew that he would win this award. The agency he signed with had a close relationship with Shonan TV. It would be a joke to say that he was kept in the dark beforehand.
Cui Zhengzhi hurried off the stage. Fang Chen, the host of Shonan TV, immediately began to announce the nominees for the next award.
It was better to quickly get over this awkward moment!
Then, Lu Chen also lost the Best Composition Award, which was won by the famous musician Tan Hu.
Tan Hu is a first-class songwriter in the domestic pop music industry. He has created hundreds of songs, including emotional, folk, blues, and even theme songs. There is no lack of classics that have been sung all over the country. He enjoys a high reputation in the circle.
If Tan Hu and Lu Chen were compared separately, Lu Chen was definitely not as good as Tan Hu in terms of the number of works, qualifications, and status in the circle.
But when Tan Hu received the Best Composition Award from the hands of the guest presenter Tan Hong, he said, "I'm very happy to win this award here tonight. I'm deeply honored and frightened by the Chinese Music Chart's love."
"But I'm also very ashamed because I didn't create a commendable work in 2015. Compared with the other candidates, I really failed to live up to their love …"
The Xiangjiang Grand Theater, which could accommodate 2,000 audiences, became very quiet. Everyone was quietly listening to the sincere voice of the middle-aged man with a lot of white hair.
"I've been engaged in music creation for more than 20 years. I've won all the awards and honors that I deserve, so I hope that the seniors in our industry can use more strength to support and encourage the newcomers, because they are the hope of Chinese original music!"
"That's all I have to say. Thank you again. Thank you, Shonan TV and Hong Kong Satellite TV!"
After that, Tan Hu bowed deeply to everyone.
As soon as his voice fell, the audience burst into thunderous applause, and many people even stood up to applaud.
Among them was Lu Xi.
Lu Xi attended the award party as Lu Chen's representative. She was not surprised by the result at all, because she had expected it. She had no illusions about the moral integrity of Shonan TV.
However, Lu Xi did not expect that there were so many people in this circle who were willing to support Lu Chen.
Although their support was very implicit, it should be known that Lu Chen had only been in the industry for more than half a year, and his contacts in the circle were still in the initial stage. Many people did not even know him.
For example, Tan Hu.
Anyone could tell that Tan Hu was implicitly expressing his dissatisfaction with Shonan TV. He was dissatisfied with the latter's deliberate suppression of newcomers like Lu Chen.
His criticism was not fierce, nor was it a storm-like attack, but it was also powerful!
Lu Chen's work that was selected for the best composition was "You Who Sat Next To Me," but in the circle, it was generally believed that Lu Chen's best work was "In The Spring" or "I Love You China." These two works were very popular and could be called classics.
Even if it was "You Who Sat Next To Me," Tan Hu's award-winning work "Pencil Roll" paled in comparison. Tan Hu himself did not deny this, and he was not really happy about winning the award.
Strictly speaking, Shonan TV was suspected of using him as a weapon.
Tan Hu really didn't care about the Best Composition Award. He had never met Lu Chen, but he appreciated the latter very much.
After the Best Composition Award, it was the heavyweight Best Album, Most Popular Male and Female Singer, Best Male and Female Singer, and so on.
However, as the awards were announced, it gave people the feeling that it was the end after the climax. Even if the four hosts tried their best to adjust the atmosphere, it was still tepid.
That night, Chen Fei 'er won the Most Popular Female Singer Award. She went on stage and said a few words.
On the second day after the end of the 2015 Chinese Music Chart Awards Ceremony, many entertainment media published the winners list and comments. Among them, Lu Chen's failure to be selected as the best newcomer was the loudest voice of doubt.
On the Internet, such voices were magnified at least 10 times. Many Lu Chen's fans went to Shonan TV's official blog and Tieba forum to mock and criticize the latter. As a result, it triggered a war of words with the Internet Water Army of Shonan TV.
On InspurBlog, some people ridiculed Xiangnan Satellite TV for lifting a stone and smashing its own foot, and its table manners were too ugly.
As the center of public opinion, LuChen remained calm. He expressed regret that he had lost two awards and did not comment on the practice of Xiangnan Satellite TV, which disappointed many guys who wanted to watch the fun. (TN: Xiangnan Satellite TV)
Because Lu Chen didn't need to care about the Chinese Music Chart Awards. He had already received the invitation of the Asian Chinese Music Chart and was nominated for four awards!
