Chapter 617 The first lineup of the Spring Festival Gala, 'China in the Lights'
Entertainment reporters squatted outside the workplace of the Spring Festival Gala program team, originally wanting to take pictures of the big-name celebrities who were currently in the spotlight.
As a result, Fang Xing was accidentally photographed.
Although Fang Xing took a break for two years, everyone in the entertainment journal knew that as long as there was news about Fang Xing two years ago, it would be a trending search.
Therefore, an entertainment reporter took a photo of Fang Xing and posted it online that afternoon, which aroused many discussions among netizens.
There are many individual fan groups with yin and yang characteristics:
[You know you’re going to lose your temper, so you want to go to the Spring Festival Gala through the back door, right?]
[He doesn’t think that he can go to the Spring Festival Gala if he wants to, right? He disappeared for two years and wants to go to the Spring Festival Gala when he returns. Does he think he is a prince? 】
[You are a has-been, can you please stop me from brushing this person? 】
Among them, celebrity fans who have a competitive relationship are the most malicious.
Especially L.burst, whose song "Music Madman" just made it into the top ten of the hot song list this year. Then his management company wanted to promote him to the Spring Festival Gala, so he actively communicated with the Spring Festival Gala program team for this purpose.
Now, suddenly a singer comes and wants to appear on the Spring Festival Gala, which directly creates a competitive relationship.
Moreover, the number of songs in the Spring Festival Gala is fixed.
In order to appear on the Spring Festival Gala, many celebrities put together a mixed program with other singers.
There are even ideas of putting together a medley of songs to get five or six stars together.
If Fang Xing gets a spot for the Spring Festival Gala, it means that at least one singer will definitely be squeezed out of the Spring Festival Gala roster.
Two years ago, Fang Xing and L.burst had a competition on a car brand promotional song.
This time, new and old grudges are combined, and some fan groups are more violent than two years ago:
[FX, this useless dog, should go back and raise children. You are still licking your face and want to go to the Spring Festival Gala, are you worthy?]
[Since you have given birth to a child, you should go back and take care of the child. Who are you going to embarrass? There is no such person on the hot song list. How can you compare with LB? 】
[This year’s Spring Festival Gala, if there is no LB, I will definitely not watch it.]
[Shout out to the spring break director team, we only recognize LB, the new king of the music industry has ascended the throne. If we don’t have the Spring Festival Gala, we won’t have to do crappy programs like the Spring Festival Gala in the future. 】
[Why bother shouting at the program team? Just shout at FX, you are not worthy!]
…
Amid the clamor of L.burst fans.
Occasionally, Fang Xing's fans would come forward to confront him.
After all, he has been dominating the music chart two years ago, with dozens of classic songs on there, and his fan base is actually quite large.
However, Fang Xing never managed fans and took a two-year break.
As a result, there are many fans, but only a small proportion can express their opinions online.
Even so, after all, the base is large, so many fans still quarreled with L.burst fans:
[No, Fang Xing just got married, had children, and took a two-year break. Now what kind of monsters can jump out and step on him? 】
[This group of NCs only care about eating but not fighting. How did you forget so quickly that Changfeng Motor’s promotional song was played by “Drift”? 】
[Let me just say that Fang Xing shouldn’t take a break. Two more songs won’t make these weird things pop up and disgust people.]
[Actually, I’m a little worried. Will Fang Xing become popular if he releases a song now? 】
[To be honest, I am also a little worried. After all, whether a song is popular or not sometimes really depends on mysticism. Moreover, I can’t understand even one of the songs that are popular in short videos now.]
[I am indeed a little worried, but I am extremely looking forward to it. I hope Fang Xing can sing a song at the Spring Festival Gala, even if it is not a new song, just an old song. 】
…
A day passed amid arguments.
Ark Culture received another invitation from the Spring Festival Gala program team.
Originally, Fang Xing thought he would have to wait two more days, but he didn't expect that only one day had passed before the program team made an appointment to meet.
Fang Xing was originally planning to ask Lu Ming to come over and practice the song together.
As a result, before I had time to practice, news from the Spring Festival Gala program team came.
The next appointment was at the office of the Spring Festival Gala program team.
Just like last time, Fang Xing brought Qiao Yinghong and Guo Keda to meet the Spring Festival Gala director, and also brought along Lu Ming.
This time.
The attitude of the Spring Festival Gala director team was much more enthusiastic.
The last time they met, the Spring Festival Gala directing team just treated it as an ordinary celebrity. Their attitude wasn't bad, but they weren't enthusiastic either.
After all, there are so many big companies in the entertainment industry that want to arrange celebrities to attend the Spring Festival Gala. The Spring Festival Gala director team meets too many celebrities, and it is impossible to keep smiling every time.
However, when we met with Fang Xing for the second time, the director team was obviously much more enthusiastic.
"Mr. Fang, we listened to the demo you gave us and found it very good. It is very suitable for singing on the Spring Festival Gala, so I came here today to talk about the plan and arrangement of this song." Xue Tao took the initiative to bring up the topic.
Fang Xing still respected the ideas of the Spring Festival Gala directing team, so he asked them to speak first: "Director Xue can share his ideas first."
About the song "China in the Lights".
The Spring Festival Gala director team and several singers from the national team were all full of praise after listening to it.
However, the singing program of the Spring Festival Gala is really too crowded, and now adding another song will make it even more crowded.
Xue Tao suggested: "Well, besides you, can we arrange for three more singers to sing this song?"
Fang Xing frowned and asked, "Who is there?"
Xue Tao named the other three singers. The first two were considered first-line singers, but the last one even brought L.burst.
Fang Xing refused directly: "No, this song is not suitable for them to sing, especially the last one."
If the Spring Festival Gala program team insists on this arrangement, Fang Xing would rather not attend the Spring Festival Gala than let a rapper ruin this song.
Just in case the time comes, I'll add a bullshit rap to this song.
Fang Xing might throw the wheat and leave on the spot.
Hearing Fang Xing's straightforward rejection, Xue Tao and several other Spring Festival Gala directors looked at each other and exchanged opinions.
After a while, Xue Tao asked: "So what do you think? Let's talk about it first."
Fang Xing said straightforwardly: "My idea is very simple. Lu Ming and I will sing this song. If the program team is not satisfied during the rehearsal, just take it off. I will never object."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Actually.
Lu Ming had previously submitted a song for the singing program of this year's Spring Festival Gala, but was later rejected.
One of the reasons why it was deleted is that Lu Ming has not had any popular songs in the past two years, and he does not have many enthusiastic fans, which has resulted in much lower traffic than L.burst.
In the past few years, the Spring Festival Gala has formed a pattern, and it is customary to select a few songs from the popular songs of the year to be included in the Spring Festival Gala.
Lu Ming has not had a hit song in the past two years, so he is not very competitive.
Now, Fang Xing has released a new song and wants to take Lu Ming to the Spring Festival Gala, and he will not accept offers from other celebrities. This attitude is a bit tough.
Xue Tao asked again: "Is it true that we can't add other singers?"
Fang Xing was not so sure, and said, "If it is a singer from the national team, of course I am willing to cooperate. As for other singers, forget it. I would rather not attend the Spring Festival Gala than ruin this song."
In fact, the Spring Festival Gala directing team is not very satisfied with Lu Ming. After all, Lu Ming is not famous enough now.
Fang Xing saw the thoughts of the directing team and said: "Actually, Lu Ming sang the demo, and he was only singing the demo, so he didn't go into details yet, so he is fully capable of singing this song well.
"In short, this is my idea. If the director team thinks it works, then let's try it. If it doesn't, then it doesn't matter."
…
After expressing their attitude, the Spring Festival Gala director team did not immediately agree. After all, it is the Spring Festival Gala, and many things cannot be decided by the director team alone.
After the chat, Xue Tao said that after returning home, he would hold a meeting and discuss with other leaders of the program team.
After this meeting is over.
Qiao Yinghong made a private appointment with Xue Tao for tea.
Fang Xing and Xue Tao had worked together before, so they still had connections, so it was okay to have a cup of tea.
While drinking tea in private, I learned from Xue Tao that the stars who wanted to share the platter really wanted to attend the Spring Festival Gala because of their connections.
So Xue Tao is also thinking of various ways to arrange these into singing programs.
Originally, Xue Tao planned to arrange four singers, including L.burst, into one song, which would be considered as completing the task.
Another song will be selected that is suitable for the Spring Festival Gala, so that all aspects of the performance are properly arranged.
However, as soon as Fang Xing's song "China in the Lights" came out, it immediately broke the original situation.
The Spring Festival Gala directing team, the leaders of the superior department, and the two national team singers were all full of praise after hearing this song.
Especially the two national team singers, after listening to this song, they said that this song must be played in the Spring Festival Gala.
Moreover, these two national team singers have an unusual status and have epaulettes on their shoulders.
Therefore, the Spring Festival Gala program team could only immediately add "China in Lights" to the Spring Festival Gala program list.
But as a result, there was no room for the celebrities who originally prepared the platter.
Then I thought of letting Fang Xing lead these platter stars to sing "China Under the Lights".
As for whether these celebrities can sing this song, it is not a big problem. There are many ways to solve it.
However, Xue Tao didn't expect Fang Xing's attitude to be so tough. He would rather not attend the Spring Festival Gala than share a platter with those celebrities.
…
When drinking tea in private, you can say some things that were originally inconvenient to say.
Fang Xing also made his thoughts clear and insisted not to ruin the song.
If a singer from the national team wants to sing this song, then there is no problem. Fang Xing is willing to cooperate or even quit on his own.
However, if a rapper were to sing "China Under the Lights", Fang Xing might as well just lock the song in the cupboard.
After understanding the inside story, Xue Tao said that he would hold a meeting with his superiors to discuss the matter after returning home.
Fang Xing was not in a hurry. He originally went to the Spring Festival Gala just because Lu Ming was chased and bitten by L.burst fans for a long time some time ago, so he wanted to help him vent his anger.
If you can go to the Spring Festival Gala, go to it. If you can't, then watch it with your family, that's fine.
…
As the Spring Festival Gala program team revealed some news about singing programs, the industry began to spread the news that Fang Xing and L.burst were competing for spots in the Spring Festival Gala.
As a result, fans of L.burst on the Internet began to go crazy. Whenever they saw Fang Xing, or even news related to Ark culture, they would go up and abuse him.
However, from beginning to end, Ark Culture did not respond at all.
After Fang Xing went back, he asked Lu Ming to come over and start practicing "China Under the Light" together.
This song is very suitable for TV shows. Even if you don’t want it in the Spring Festival Gala, it will be easy to perform in other shows.
In short, this song will have to be practiced sooner or later, so practice it first while you have time now.
Three more days passed.
The Spring Festival Gala program team announced the program list for the first time, and among the singing programs, there was "China Under the Lights". However, L.burst, who had been actively contacted by the Spring Festival Gala program team, was not on the list.
This program list was released and immediately caused an uproar on the Internet.
[Okay. Fang Xing went straight to the joint list. Is this "China in the Lights" a new song? Why can't I find it? 】
[Oh! Is it really possible to attend the Spring Festival Gala? 】
[Fang Xing: Yes, for me, I can definitely go to the Spring Festival Gala if I want to. 】
【That’s awesome, my Brother Di.】
[It’s so easy to join? Why do I feel like I haven’t exerted much effort yet, and I’m on the big list.]
Unlike ordinary netizens, fans of L.burst went crazy:
[This useless dog! He actually squeezed out the LB position!]
[Are the Spring Festival Gala program crew blind? If they find a has-been waste to attend the Spring Festival Gala, who will watch this crappy program? 】
[As long as there is FX in the Spring Festival Gala this year, I will look like a dog!]
[Is the program crew sick? Let’s go check out the hot song chart, okay? FX, this loser, has a song on the hot song chart? LB’s “Music Madman” has already reached the ninth spot on the hot song chart. 】
[Don’t worry, everyone, this is the first time for a series. There are five series for the Spring Festival Gala. FX is such a loser. If I can make it to the end, I will stand on my head and eat shit. 】
[Go to the official account of the Spring Festival Gala program team and ask the program team to replace FX with LB. Otherwise, I will definitely not watch the Spring Festival Gala this year.]
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! So, a large group of fans began to post insults on the official Weibo account of the Spring Festival Gala.
The official WeChat account of the Spring Festival Gala is also very straightforward, closing comments directly and only using the official WeChat account as a channel for releasing information.
at the same time.
L.burst's management company, Yinlang Entertainment, continues to actively communicate with the Spring Festival Gala program team, hoping to put him on the Spring Festival Gala roster again.
L.burst's agent knew a director of the Spring Festival Gala program and called to inquire: "Director Liu, you see L.burst is so popular this year, it must be appropriate to appear on the Spring Festival Gala.
"Can you try again, maybe the last song on the platter.
"Don't worry, L.burst will definitely be obedient. He will sing whatever the program team asks him to sing, and he can collaborate with anyone he wants. He will absolutely obey the orders."
The director surnamed Liu sighed: "Actually, at first we were considering letting artists from your company sing "China Under the Lights" with Fang Xing."
"Yes. No problem. You can sing any song, including "China Under the Lights". As long as we get the song sample, we will arrange a rehearsal immediately and make sure to practice it well before the first rehearsal." L.burst's
The manager quickly agreed, regardless of what song it was.
The director surnamed Liu smiled and said, "The problem is, Fang Xing is not willing."
L.burst's agent frowned and asked, "What did you say? Didn't you say at the beginning that you could join the league? Why did you suddenly change your mind?"
The director surnamed Liu replied: "After five concerts, only those who can reach the end can go to the Spring Festival Gala. Let me tell you this, Fang Xing's song only has one word 'strong'. If you want to go to the Spring Festival Gala, you can also get one."
If you come out with a song that can be praised by your superiors, I guarantee you will be able to sing it too."
