After Tan Hong won the only Lifetime Achievement Award in the [Asian Chinese Music Chart], the award ceremony continued. The Media Recommendation Award, Best Music Video, Best Arrangement and other awards were won one by one.
"Next is the Best Newcomer Award in the Asian Chinese Music Chart …"
The excited voice of CCTV host Xia Jun echoed in the ears of the 5,000 audience at the scene: "Please look at the big screen!"
On the giant LED display that served as the background of the stage, a picture that was cut vertically into four pieces instantly appeared. The photos of the four candidates for the Best Newcomer Award appeared at the same time, with their respective representative works shining below.
"The first candidate is Zou Bei, with her representative work" Blooming Flower "!"
Zou Bei's beautiful voice immediately came out of the top-notch sound system arranged around the hall.
Zou Bei was the winner of the 2015 Deep Sea Satellite TV's ace variety show "National Idol". After signing a contract with Starlight Media, she released her debut album "Blooming Flower".
She is about the same age as Lu Chen. She has an outstanding appearance, good singing ability, and a reputation as a talented woman in music. Therefore, she was strongly supported by Starlight Media. She received a lot of announcements and endorsements, and has more than 5 million fans in Waves blog.
It is worth mentioning that Zou Bei is the star spokesperson of [Starlight Show]. Every time she opens a live broadcast, the number of viewers exceeds one million, faintly forming a tit-for-tat trend with Lu Chen, who signed a contract with [Whale TV].
The contest between the two was not just once. the earliest was their debut album, LuChen's "You Who Sat Next To Me" album and her "Blooming Flower", which were only a few days apart from each other on QQ Music Online.
However, in terms of sales, "You Who Sat Next To Me" completely beat "Blooming Flower".
In addition, the last time Shonan TV [Chinese Music Chart], Zou Bei was also nominated for Best Newcomer.
It's just that both lost to Cui Zhengzhi.
When her name was called, Zou Bei stood up from her seat with a smile on her face and bowed to the applauding audience to express her gratitude.
She was sitting in the row behind Lu Chen, and the distance between the two was no more than ten meters.
Lu Chen clapped his hands and turned his head curiously, only to meet Zou Bei's eyes.
The latter's eyes narrowed and nodded to Lu Chen.
Lu Chen smiled and nodded.
In fact, this was the first time the two of them had met face to face, and they were competitors.
"The second candidate is Lin Chuxuan, his masterpiece is Night's Passion!"
Lin Chuxuan was a popular new singer in 2015. His family background was extraordinary. His father was a professor at a music academy, and his mother was a dancer. After graduating from junior high school, he was sent abroad to study music. He returned to China in 2014 and debuted at the end of the year, releasing his debut album in March 2015.
His masterpiece, "Night's Passion", sold quite well. The style of the work had strong European and American pop elements, so it was very popular with many young people.
The title song of the album, "Dark Night", once topped the Original Music Chart for two consecutive weeks.
Among the four nominees, Lin Chuxuan was the biggest threat to Lu Chen. He was talented and capable, and his parents had a lot of connections in the industry. He would definitely be able to influence some of the judges.
However, Lin Chuxuan also had a weakness. He was arrogant and hot-tempered. He once scolded a blogger who talked about his height on his blog, and it caused a lot of uproar.
Lin Chuxuan's height was 1.65 meters, and some people said that his real height was no more than 1.60 meters.
"The third candidate is Lu Chen, his masterpiece is You Who Sat Next To Me!"
Lu Chen, who was called, stood up and thanked him.
"The fourth candidate is Xiao Bingbing, her masterpiece is If I Can Love Again!"
Xiao Bingbing was also a new singer who debuted last year. She was signed by the media giant Jiahua Entertainment, but she had not released an album yet. She only released a few singles, and if I Can Love Again was her masterpiece that was on the Original Music Chart.
Compared to Zou Bei, Lin Chuxuan, and Lu Chen, Xiao Bingbing was much worse in all aspects. Her only strength was probably her looks. She was young and beautiful, had a sexy body, and was good at dancing.
It was widely believed in the industry that she was nominated for Best Newcomer on the Asian Chinese Music Chart because Jiahua Entertainment's public relations ability was too strong. It was basically impossible for her to win the award. CCTV was not Xiangnan Satellite TV. They had a higher moral index and rarely did things that could cause an uproar in public opinion.
Therefore, the Golden Lark Award would only fall into the hands of one of Zou Bei, Lin Chuxuan, or Lu Chen.
Lin Chuxuan and Lu Chen had the highest chances of winning the award!
After the nomination list was announced, Xia Jun said loudly, "Next, let us invite the famous singer, Miss Chen Fei'er, to announce the winner of the Asian Chinese Music Chart's Best Newcomer Award!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a bright beam of light instantly shone on the seat next to Lu Chen.
Chen Fei'er revealed a charming smile. She lifted her skirt with one hand and left her seat. She walked onto the stage amidst the warm applause of the audience and took the envelope from another CCTV host.
The main hall instantly quieted down. Everyone's eyes were focused on Chen Fei'er.
Apart from the Lifetime Achievement Award that was added at the last minute, the Best Newcomer Award was undoubtedly the first really important award, especially the Asian Chinese Top Songs Chart.
Since the beginning of the new century, the domestic entertainment industry had developed rapidly and the scale of the industry had been expanding. However, the overall quality of the pop music industry, where there were more and more singers and artists, showed a trend of decline.
Chinese pop music was greatly influenced by Europe, America, Japan, and South Korea. Many entertainment record companies were eager for quick success and did not pay attention to original works. Covers, imitations, and even plagiarized foreign works became a trend. There were fewer and fewer original songs that people praised.
Many insightful people in the industry were worried and cried out, which also attracted the attention of the government.
As the official representative, the Asian Chinese Music Chart led by CCTV and CCTV naturally had to promote the correct value orientation and enhance the value of the award.
For example, the Best Newcomer Award, which was not valued in the past, had a lot of weight in recent years. The most direct manifestation was that since 2010, all the singers who won the Best Newcomer Award would be qualified to participate in the song and dance program of next year's Spring Festival Gala!
CCTV's Spring Festival Gala was the strongest program with a ratings of more than 85% for decades. Many artists became famous through the Spring Festival Gala and embarked on the road to become a big shot in the industry.
Therefore, even if it was just the qualification to participate in the program, it was enough to make people break their heads and beg for it!
The Asian Chinese Music Chart's Best Newcomer Award was related to the Spring Festival Gala, so its weight could be imagined.
And three of the previous five Best Newcomer Award winners had really stepped onto the stage of the Spring Festival Gala and became famous overnight!
The next moment, as Chen Fei'er opened the envelope and took out the card with the award winner's name, the fierce accompaniment suddenly sounded, like a storm pounding on people's hearts.
Even Lu Chen's heart was in his throat!
He saw Chen Fei'er open the card, and then his eyes widened in surprise as if it was incredible.
The drumming suddenly stopped!
The Heavenly Queen of the singing industry's expression became serious. She looked ahead and said into the microphone, "The winner of the 16th Asian Chinese Music Chart's Best Newcomer Award is …"
Chen Fei'er's lips curved into a soul-stirring and beautiful smile. "Lu Chen!"
Lu Chen!
It had only been more than half a year since his official debut. Lu Chen, who had not signed any entertainment agency and had miraculously risen in the pop music industry, had won an important award in his music career.
The 16th Asian Chinese Music Chart's Best Newcomer Award!
When Lu Chen heard his name coming out of Chen Fei'er's mouth, although he had expected and prepared for it in advance, he still felt a rush of blood rushing to his head, making his face blush, and he couldn't help showing an excited expression.
After going all the way to the present, he finally got the honor that he deserved.
Chen Fei'er smiled and said, "Congratulations, Lu Chen!"
The audience burst into thunderous applause.
Except for a few people, most of the guests and audience were not surprised that Lu Chen won the Best Newcomer Award. Their congratulations were warm and sincere.
Looking back to 2015, Lu Chen's rise in the pop music industry was really a bright spot in the industry. So far, he had created more than 20 works, each of which was excellent, and there was no lack of classics.
Such talent, such high yield, and so dazzling!
It could be said that because of Lu Chen, Chinese pop music in the second half of 2015 had vitality and vitality. His success also encouraged the new generation of originality to a great extent, especially the campus folk style brought by him, which made people like this kind of nostalgic work and washed away a lot of impetuous atmosphere in the music industry.
Based on his contribution to music alone, Lu Chen was fully qualified to win this award.
Who could be better than him? Zou Bei couldn't, Lin Chuxuan couldn't, and Xiao Bingbing couldn't!
The only shortcoming of Lu Chen was that his foundation in the circle was too poor. He did not sign a contract with a powerful agency or entertainment company, but chose the difficult road of opening his own studio.
Previously, he was suppressed by Shonan TV in the Chinese Music Chart, and this was the main reason.
But in turn, it also proved the strength of Lu Chen!
"Will you remember tomorrow, the diary you wrote yesterday, will you still think about tomorrow …"
The music sounded, and it was Lu Chen's "You Who Sat Next To Me".
The spotlight shone on him, accompanying him to the big stage that was in the limelight.
At this moment, on the VIP seats, as a defeated competitor, Zou Bei bit her lip and clapped.
She lost to Lu Chen again. She was unwilling, but she could still maintain her demeanor.
In contrast, Lin Chuxuan's face was a lot worse. He clapped his hands casually and put them down.
As for Xiao Bingbing, she probably knew that she had no chance. She laughed heartlessly, and her reaction was the most enthusiastic.
Outside the venue, on the Internet, and among the audience watching the Asian Chinese Music Chart Award Ceremony, countless people congratulated Lu Chen!
