Soon, it was Xiao Yunhai's turn to be nominated for the Best Song Award. There were a total of eight songs, and Xiao Yunhai had won three of them.
Without any suspense, Xiao Yunhai won the award with "Billy Jean."
Xiao Yunhai did not look excited at all. He stood up and hugged Zhao Wanqing. He shook hands with the singers around him and walked onto the stage with a smile.
Holding the trophy, Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Thank you to the Grammy jury for awarding me this award. Thank you to all my fans for your love. This is my first time attending a Grammy Award Ceremony. Even if I don't win any other awards, I didn't come in vain. Thank you again. "
The audience applauded.
In the guest seats, Franklin clapped perfunctorily and asked IMD Television Station's director, Elvis Neuss, "I heard that Kungfu Xiao and his wife are going to perform three songs on stage tonight, right?"
Elvis Neuss nodded and said, "That's right."
Franklin narrowed his eyes and said, "Can we cancel their performance?"
Elvis Neuss said, "According to the contract, we do have the right to do so. However, Kungfu Xiao and his wife are not ordinary people. They have countless fans. If we do that, not only will the fans be very unhappy, but the Grammy committee will also strongly oppose it. They might not work with us in the future. "
Franklin thought for a moment and said, "The most important reason why Kungfu Xiao agreed to appear on stage this time is to promote his wife's album. How about this? Contact the Grammy committee and find a reason to change their three songs into one song. Don't let Miss Zhao go on stage. "
Elvis Neuss said, "Okay, I'll do it right away."
In another corner, Kree picked up his phone and called Hua Xia's MGM Grand TV Station.
"How are the ratings?" Kree asked in a deep voice.
"Very good. When Mr. Xiao won the Best Song Award, the ratings exceeded 7% and are still slowly increasing. "
Kree said happily, "That's great. Getting 7% ratings at this time will definitely be the best in Hua Xia. Pay close attention to the ratings curve. Once it exceeds 10%, inform me immediately. "
"Okay."
Kree hung up the phone with satisfaction.
Ever since he got the rights to Xiao Yunhai's live broadcast, Kree had launched an overwhelming publicity campaign on Hua Xia. The fans were also very active on the Internet, wanting to see how many awards Xiao Yunhai could win.
With the show's influence, the show had a lot of advertisers came to discuss advertising deals.
Kerry referred to Xiao Yunhai's Marvel Company's approach, using ratings in exchange for advertising fees, and received the support of advertisers.
According to the current ratings, Kree only needed to broadcast ten minutes of commercials and he could get 70 to 80 million in revenue. It was daylight robbery.
What's more, as time passed, the ratings would definitely increase, and the revenue it brought would also increase.
In this way, it would be difficult for Kree not to make money.
On the Internet, Xiao Yunhai's fans were very excited and left comments on the forum.
"Yun Huang is amazing. This is the first time in five years that a Hua Xia singer has won a Grammy Award."
"That's right. Other than Ye Tianwang who won the Best Song Award in 1996, Yun Huang is the first. "
"Just wait and see. The remaining four awards will definitely not run out of his hands."
"What I'm looking forward to the most now is not how many awards Yun Huang can win, but when he will sing on stage with Queen Qing. The Grammy organizing committee is so annoying. They didn't even announce a time. "
"I'm also waiting. Yun Huang will sing three new songs after Queen Qing. I'm really looking forward to it. "
Just like the Oscars before, the Grammy Awards Party has a very high status among Hua Xia's fans.
Unfortunately, over the years, very few Hua Xia singers have been recognized by the Grammy Awards.
Now Xiao Yunhai has come out of nowhere and with one album, he has won 130 million sales, which makes the Grammy Awards have to pay attention to him. This is undoubtedly a very great thing for fans, and it is inevitable that they feel excited.
The award ceremony continued. Not long after Xiao Yunhai won the Best Song Award, he won the Best Rock Song Award and the Best Arrangement Award one after another, which made Xiao Yunhai unable to even say his acceptance speech.
Everyone knows that the remaining Best Album and Best Singer of the Year are definitely Xiao Yunhai's, so many fans of Xiao Yunhai have started to celebrate online in advance.
"What did you say? I can only sing one song, what kind of international joke is this? " In a corner backstage, Xiao Yunhai looked at the chairman of the Grammy Awards, Cliff Adolf, with a serious face.
Cliff Adolf said helplessly, "Mr. Xiao, this is IMD's suggestion. According to the contract, they have the right to do so. "
Xiao Yunhai's face was full of anger. He said, "Paramount again. There's no end to this. What's their reason for doing this? "
"Time. They said that if you sing three songs, it will seriously affect IMD's next program arrangement, and it is likely to cause dissatisfaction with advertisers, so they have to get two. I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao, I don't want to do this either. "
Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and said, "This has nothing to do with you. Sir, since I can only sing one song, let my wife sing on stage. Her album is about to be released, and she needs this opportunity more than me. "
Cliff Adolf pursed his lips and said with a wry smile, "Mr. Xiao, IMD thinks that you are more popular than Miss Zhao, so they appointed you to sing."
Xiao Yunhai sneered, "In your dreams. I agreed to perform because of my wife. If she doesn't go on stage, then what's the point of me going on stage? Franklin is deliberately picking on me. Well, if that's the case, then I'll break up with him. Sir, tell him that if he wants to do this, then I don't mind telling the fans all over the world about it. Didn't he say that it's a matter of time? Then ask the fans if they agree with him. "
After saying that, Xiao Yunhai no longer paid any attention to Cliff Adolf and returned to his seat with an ashen face.
Zhao Wanqing saw that his face was not right, so she asked softly, "Honey, what's wrong?"
Xiao Yunhai told her what had happened and said, "This Franklin really thinks that I'm a pushover. He doesn't even know what he's capable of before he dares to use such means to deal with us. He's really reckless. "
Zhao Wanqing said, "Honey, it doesn't matter if I don't sing."
Xiao Yunhai said, "It doesn't matter to me. Humph, I was worried about what to say on stage. Now I have something to say. "
Zhao Wanqing quickly stopped him and said, "Honey, you've already made trouble at the Oscars. You won't make trouble at the Grammys again, right? It's not good for us to offend these two most influential shows in Europe and America. Forget it, I don't want to go on stage anyway. Let them be. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Honey, don't worry. I know what I'm doing."
On the other side, Franklin saw his expression and said proudly, "It seems that Xiao is very angry."
IMD TV station's director, Elvis Neuss, said, "Only one song out of three. No one would be happy if such a thing happened to them."
At this time, a staff member came to them and said, "Gentlemen, President Cliff Adolf asked you to go backstage to discuss a very difficult matter."
Franklin and Elvis Neuss looked at each other and left their seats at the same time.
Seeing Cliff Adolf, Franklin asked, "Mr. Adolf, what did Kungfu Xiao say?"
Cliff Adolf was also very dissatisfied with IMD TV station's behavior. He said with an ugly face, "Mr. Xiao is very angry. He said that if you really do this, he will go on stage and tell the fans all over the world about it."
"What?" Franklin frowned and said, "Kungfu Xiao really said that? He's really a difficult guy. "
At this time, Franklin realized that he had miscalculated.
If he did this to an ordinary singer, no matter how angry he was, he wouldn't dare to say anything.
But who was Xiao Yunhai? The world's richest man, a global superstar, was treated unfairly. How could he let it go?
Back then, he had dared to throw a tantrum at Oscar, let alone Paramount.
Going on stage and announcing this matter to attack him and IMD TV station was just a trivial matter for Xiao Yunhai.
He wouldn't lose anything, but Paramount and IMD TV station were a little narrow-minded.
Xiao Yunhai asked Cliff Adolf to tell him because he didn't want to give up this opportunity with Zhao Wanqing. But if he didn't agree, he wouldn't be polite.
Franklin said, "Since Kungfu Xiao has such a big reaction, then forget it. I'll ask someone to communicate with those advertisers. I hope they can understand. "
"Bullsh * t, what advertisers? Do they really think we're fools?"
Cliff Adolf sneered in his heart, but said, "That's the best. It's almost time for the award of the best album. I'll inform Mr. Xiao right away. "
After Cliff Adolf left, Franklin shook his head and smiled bitterly. "Why did we do this? We offended the Grammy committee for no reason."
