360 The New History of Chinese Music and Grammys (8000-character chapter)
At the New York branch of Warner Records, Cao Xuan saw Mike and was shocked when he met him.
The last time I saw this guy, he was still a burly man. Although he was also strong now, his whole body was obviously rounded several times. If it weren't for his height and facial features, Cao Xuan almost didn't recognize him.
"Brother, you have fallen, why are you so fat?"
"Hey, I'm married."
Mike's face was filled with confusion, and Cao Xuan was even more confused. They had a good relationship, and they were considered to be Cao Xuan's few American friends, so they knew something about him.
This guy turned out to be a prodigal son, much more romantic than Cao Daguan.
Originally, the United States was relatively open, and Mike was a senior executive of a major record company in the entertainment industry. He also had a large annual salary, was powerful and wealthy, and the little girl was all over him. She also liked to go to bars and dance clubs to play.
Hunt for wild food.
Not to mention anything else, when Cao Xuan was in the United States for more than a month, he saw no less than three women around him. After not seeing him for more than half a year, he suddenly decided to get married.
"True love?"
"Her father is the third shareholder of Northern Trust Bank, and she is the only daughter."
"That must be true love."
Cao Xuan suddenly realized that Northern Trust Bank was firmly in the top ten in the U.S. banking industry, and the third shareholder's assets were estimated to be at least a billion US dollars. This was a fool's errand.
He couldn't help but look at Mike again. He didn't expect that this guy with a strong back and a rough face could actually make a living.
At the same time, I also understand why Mike has gained weight. His career is going smoothly, his voice in the board of directors is gradually increasing, and he has married a rich wife. This is such a happy fat person.
The two old friends caught up with each other before getting down to business. Not only was Cao Xuan nominated for a Grammy, he also had a performance, so he had to hurry up these two days.
The Grammy performance is definitely not as good as the Super Bowl halftime and Victoria's Secret, but it has a lot of viewers. It is a good opportunity to gain recognition and enrich the singer's qualifications.
At least, if a popular singer in the United States has not performed live at the Grammys, his career is absolutely incomplete.
For Cao Xuan, appearing on the Grammy stage also set a new record in the Chinese music world and even the Asian music world.
In his impression, it seems that no Chinese singer has ever performed on the Grammy stage.
Cao Xuan prepared the most famous and most likely to win the award, "Lure're Beautiful" for rehearsal tomorrow.
In fact, from a live perspective, singing rock songs is more likely to blow up the scene, but the songs were requested by the organizing committee, and Cao Xuan did not force them. Although ballads are not as powerful as rock songs, he is better at it.
Compared with whether to blow up or not, Cao Xuan cares more about maintaining his singing standards in front of many American music colleagues and not losing face.
After talking about the Grammys, Mike also brought up the theme song "Sold out" for "The Matrix" written by Cao Xuan.
Cao Xuan completed this song years ago and sent it to the crew. The director brother and the lead actor Keanu Reeves were very happy.
However, considering the overall tone of the movie, this song was not used as an interlude and included in the plot of the movie. Instead, it was used as the ending song of the movie and the trailer promotion song.
"The Matrix 2" will be released in the United States at the end of March, and it is expected that a trailer and promotional song may be released in the near future.
Mike even estimated that if Cao Xuan wins at the Grammys, the crew may gain a lot of popularity, and Cao Xuan may also have to cooperate with publicity and receive interviews.
Cao Xuan actually knew about this. Keanu Reeves had a good relationship with him and had called him to chat before.
Cao Xuan also understands that this song is indeed more suitable for promotion. If it is paired with a video clip of the fighting highlights of "The Matrix", the effect will be even more popular.
Keanu Reeves also conveyed Cao Xuan's suggestion to the director's brother, but he didn't know if it would be adopted.
As for cooperating with interviews and publicity, Cao Xuan naturally agrees that the hundreds of thousands of dollars are not free, and he also hopes that this song will become a hit and that it will be good for him to follow the success of the "Matrix" series.
In the evening, Cao Xuan rested in the hotel, adjusted his status, and updated a series of blogs.
Being on the bulletin board for such a long time made Cao Xuan famous. In addition, he steadily output high-quality blog posts, and later even used computers to upload accompanying pictures in China.
The cooking methods, finished products, scenery and Chinese elements can be seen everywhere, which is no less than that of later generations of food travel bloggers. It is still very lethal at this stage.
Many professional magazines have invited Cao Xuan to publish articles or reprint them. Although the various manuscript fees are not large, there are only a few W a year, and the unit is US dollars.
Nowadays, Cao Xuan has one million fans on Yahoo Blog. Although it is not the ceiling, he is also a first-line Internet celebrity and has considerable online influence.
Others might have started to take the lead, commenting on major social events, then entering the cultural or political circles or various associations, and then monetizing them in various ways.
However, Cao Xuan was lazy or unwilling to get involved. When others asked him in the comment section, they said they didn't understand the story and refused to comment.
90% of all his blogs are about sharing food, and occasionally about music and movies, which are full of peace and quiet.
In the newly emerging American Internet, which is full of barbaric and noisy elements, Cao Xuan's blogging style is not only unique, but also quite individual. It attracts the love of many reserved and quiet netizens, which also gives him a particularly good reputation on the Internet.
Cao Xuanfa doesn't interact much on his blog, but he loves diving and secretly observes what fans say.
Today's blog doesn't share anything. I just said that I was very happy to see my old friends in the United States today, and then lamented that someone has become fat.
Cao Xuan's blog is very popular. Within half an hour after the blog was posted, there were thousands of comments.
[Has Cao come to the United States? When will he release a new song? Do you have any plans to hold a concert? I have to save the ticket money]
[Congratulations on your Grammy nomination, you deserve this honor]
[I really like your blog and music. Will you perform on stage? 】
[What do you think of the situation in Iraq]
[I saw the Grammy performance list and I am very much looking forward to your performance. I wish you success in winning]
["Numb" came second, Cao was bullied by the shady again, the FXXX bulletin board is a group of bastards who think highly of themselves]
【I am a Japanese fan, you are the pride of Asia】
【Ouba, I love you】
[Blessings from Italy, handsome man, my homepage has my photos, you can send me a private message]
【Holy shit, Cao Xuan!!!】
【……】
Due to the style of Cao Xuan's blog, most of his blog fans are relatively reserved and quiet. Even if they have a more public personality, their speeches are polite and reserved due to the influence of the environment in the comment area.
On the other hand, another feature of Cao Xuan's comment area is that not only Americans, but also some netizens from Europe, Asia and even South America often come to have fun.
Non-American users account for about 1/5~1/4, and if you include Chinese or Asians in the United States, the proportion is even higher.
These days, although the "wall" exists, it is not very strong. Domestic netizens can easily access external networks, but the prerequisite is that they must be proficient in English and have certain skills.
There are many domestic fans in the comment area of Cao Xuan's blog, and many media will also publish some news about his blog.
For this reason, Cao Xuan's fans often encouraged Cao Xuan to open a blog in China, but Cao Xuan refused.
There are various reasons. Needless to say, he has not joined the Internet abroad. He is still thinking about the layout of domestic blogs and even Weibo.
Cao Xuan's influence is no joke. If he joins a blog, he can promote it to a great extent. He wants to keep this influence.
Whether he lets Penguin do it, acquires new websites himself, or joins forces with Sina, if Cao Xuan wants to gain enough voice, he has to have some cards in hand.
Cao Xuan stayed in the comment area for more than an hour. Most of them encouraged him, and some scolded the bulletin board. Then there was a daily scuffle among netizens from all over the world.
During the Hundred Years' War, England and France, when they said the other side's flag was white, or when they said the other side was young, they took advantage of it and exposed it with all their lives. Germany was acting strangely, and by the way, it made a few remarks about Italy.
Japan and South Korea refused to give in to each other. One talked about the atomic bomb, the other talked about the World Cup, stabbing each other in the heart. China fanned the flames and occasionally choked each other.
The United States goes around watching the fun, jumping out to scold his son from time to time, but he is often besieged by various attacks.
As for Ah San, who will be the number one netizen camp on the Internet in the future, there are still very few Internet users, and Cao Xuan’s influence in South Asia is limited, so for the time being, we can’t see their demeanor of being inseparable from Xiasanlu...
Although Cao Xuan has been blogging for a long time, he actually likes to watch netizens quarreling. He occasionally switches to a trumpet to set the rhythm, which is particularly relaxing and joyful.
…
The happy Cao Xuan didn't fall asleep until nearly early in the morning, and went to the rehearsal refreshed the next day.
Until the evening of February 23, 2003, the Grammy Awards ceremony was about to begin.
Cao Xuan changed his clothes in advance, and the stylist did the styling. He was wearing a dark blue slim-fitting suit with a white tie and a neat short back. The whole person looked very handsome, upright, and high-spirited.
Even Qiao Na, who was murmuring against him in her heart, her eyes brightened slightly, and the stylist praised her repeatedly, and before leaving, she stuffed a note into Cao Xuan's hand.
But he turned around and was thrown away by Cao Xuan.
Just kidding, that stylist’s Adam’s apple is bigger than his own, but he doesn’t like it...
In fact, regarding the styling, Cao Xuan wanted to do a Chinese style at first, but then he considered that the Grammys are a pop music awards ceremony.
It's okay just to receive the award, but the key is that he also has to perform, and the song is in English. The Chinese style doesn't go well with it, so he wears a suit instead.
Before departure, Cao Xuan received a cheering call from the East and West Palaces. It is now the morning of the 24th domestic time, and many people are on their computers, paying attention to the Grammy situation.
In addition to the two palaces, Princess Sanxing, who had not been in contact for almost a year, also sent him a text message for the first time.
[I wish you success and become the light of Asia]
Cao Xuan struggled with this text message for five minutes before replying "Thank you".
Perhaps the politeness and alienation were too obvious, and there was no more conversation. Cao Xuan didn't know whether he was disappointed or relieved. He put down the phone, closed his eyes and concentrated, waiting for the award ceremony for a while.
Around 5 pm local time, the artists from the award ceremony began to enter the venue one after another, which was the usual red carpet stage.
There are red carpets at award ceremonies in the United States, both indoors and outdoors. Some have a large number of spectators watching. They are both red carpets and show the popularity of artists. Some are completely shows for reporters to take pictures, mainly for the purpose of competing for beauty and beauty.
This year's Grammy was an indoor red carpet, and the attendees were all reporters. It was arranged in a wide corridor, with a large number of reporters on one side and a background wall on the other.
Artists enter the venue and walk around the red carpet, are photographed by reporters, and sign and take pictures on the signature wall at the end. There is a special interview room on the right side of the signature wall, where interviews with artists will be conducted according to arrangements and the needs of reporters.
Cao Xuan entered the venue in the middle of the show, and there was no female companion. He appeared on the red carpet in style.
He personally has no interest in red carpet shows, let alone taking photos, and even the staff came up to chase him away.
Well, it definitely does not include certain people...
Cao Xuan arrived at the red carpet and walked all the way to the autograph wall under the cameras of reporters, signing autographs and smiling for photos. He had no intention of staying long, but the reporters were very interested in him.
"Cao, with 6 nominations this time, do you think you have a chance of winning?"
"I am personally confident, but whether I can win or not depends on the organizing committee and the judges."
Cao Xuan is very experienced in answering similar questions, so he can neither belittle himself nor be too arrogant.
Anyway, respecting the organizing committee is all that matters. Regardless of winning or losing, the organizing committee still has the blame.
"Avril Lavigne is also nominated for [Best New Artist] and [Best Single of the Year] as you are. If she wins the award, will you be angry?"
"Of course not. We Chinese have a slogan [Friendship first, competition second]. This is also true when it comes to competition for awards. No matter who wins, it will not affect our friendship.
If she wins the award, I will sincerely congratulate her, and similarly, if I win the award, I believe she will also be happy for me."
Avril Lavigne has five Grammy nominations this year. In addition to the above two awards, she was also nominated for "Best Rock/Pop Female Vocalist", which is roughly similar to Cao Xuan's nomination.
And because the two are both supernovas who have become popular this year, and there are scandals, the media will inevitably tie them together and hype them up.
Cao Xuan had no choice but to express his position, and also quoted a famous saying about Sino-US diplomacy, which is very suitable at this time.
"The song ranked second on Billboard twice. Do you think it's a shady story?"
"I believe that the Billboard rankings are fair and impartial. They should not belittle their credibility for some inexplicable ideas. I don't think they will let us down."
Bulletin Board will still have to hit the charts in the future. Cao Xuan won't say anything if he offends him, but that doesn't mean he can't put pressure on Bulletin Board.
As mentioned before, the higher the bulletin board is raised, the more innocent and kind-hearted Cao Xuan is, which makes the bulletin board appear black and evil. If they continue to use crooked tactics against Cao Xuan, the backlash from public opinion will become stronger.
The reporters in the United States are very sharp and sharp, and Cao Xuan had to be very careful when facing them.
Fortunately, Cao Xuan has been practicing in China for many years and is no longer a rookie.
Regardless of sugar-coated bullets or swords, guns and halberds, he has a set of Tai Chi cloud skills, which are slippery and invulnerable to all poisons. As long as he doesn't want to say it himself, don't even think about taking out any violent information from his mouth.
Cao Xuan's tactful performance also made many American reporters who were dealing with him for the first time silently grit their teeth.
FXXX, I hate this kind of old man the most. Seeing as how young you are, you are not young and energetic at all. Young people must be frightened.
Today you scold the president, tomorrow you criticize the pope, or you criticize the capitalists. This way you are exposed, we have material, and everyone is happy.
Cao Xuan looked at the disappointed reporters and couldn't help but curl his lips.
It's not a big deal to just watch the fun. I'm making money, not seeking death. He doesn't want to hang himself after being shot seven times in the back...
………
After passing the red carpet and arriving at the venue, Cao Xuan found it awkward not to be in the American music scene for a long time.
I knew so few people that I couldn't find anyone to chat with, so I had to sit in my seat by myself, feeling somewhat isolated.
Fortunately, Cao Xuan was not embarrassed for too long, and four men came over to say hello. The leader was a thin man with a long face, and he was the first to shake hands with Cao Xuan.
"Hi, Cao, I'm Chris Martin, the lead singer of [Coldplay]."
"Hi, I'm Guy Berryman, the bass player."
"Guitarist, Johnny."
"Will Champion, drummer."
Cao Xuan stood up, shook hands with the four people, and exchanged pleasantries: "I have admired you for a long time. I listened to your new album, and the song "In my plae" is very good."
Coldplay, a British rock band, is also a famous band that will become famous all over the world.
They debuted in 1996 and became popular with "Yellow" in 2000. Last year, their second album was released and became a hit. The sales of the album were not inferior to Cao Xuan's "Chris Tsao", and they were successfully nominated for the Grammy "Best Rock Band".
Cao Xuan is very familiar with them. Coldplay, like Lincoln, Dream Dragon, and Magic Red, are his key targets.
Even if Beat Boy Band and Menglong hadn't helped to block the disaster, the second English album would have killed them first.
Several members of Coldplay were also very happy to receive Cao Xuan's enthusiastic response, especially the lead singer Chris Martin, who was later nicknamed "Potato" by Chinese fans because of his long face. He expressed some excitement.
"Man, your song "Natural" is so explosive. I love it so much. I think it was one of the best rock songs last year."
"Why should there be one?"
"Because I think our songs are the best."
Bassist Guy replied in a joking tone, everyone laughed, and then gathered together to chat.
Not long after chatting, someone tapped Cao Xuan on the shoulder, and a brown-haired girl wearing denim clothes looked up at him with a smile.
"Hi!"
The person who came was none other than Cao Xuan's little fan girl Avril Lavigne. Several members of Coldplay saw Avril Lavigne appearing, looked at the two of them, suddenly realized, and left.
Before leaving, Ma Shanyao secretly gave Cao Xuan a thumbs up sign, showing a smile that all men understand.
Cao Xuan was speechless. Obviously that guy is still in the local real estate business. Why do you all know that Wang is possessed? I am innocent.
Avril ignored their little moves and poked Cao Xuan angrily.
"When you came to America, why didn't you come to me?"
"Sister, can you please stop complaining? It makes me feel like I have abandoned you. Didn't I call you?"
"I don't care. After the awards are presented, I will be invited to dinner and apologize."
"Let's look at the schedule and talk about it when we have time."
Cao Xuan really didn't want to offend this little girl, he just regarded her as his younger sister, but there was nothing he could do about it. This girl had such a strong personality and was so young that she would have to make trouble whether she gave her permission or not. If she got attached to her, she might be a big trouble.
The little girl is a nice person, and she is his little crush. Cao Xuan can't make a promise, so he doesn't want to harm other girls.
But I didn't expect that this girl actually fell in love with him. Stalking him might be a bit exaggerated, but he also used every opportunity to flirt with him, which was very troublesome.
Cao Xuan sometimes couldn't help but miss the three-star eldest princess. She knew how to advance and retreat, had fun, kept things safe and kept secret, and the most important thing was that she was not responsible for her.
Although I don’t feel ashamed of my ancestor’s character, I have to admire my ancestor’s way of flirting with girls. I know which one is easier, a wife or a girl…
Cao Xuan chatted with Avril from time to time, and listened to her outline her experiences after becoming famous in the past six months.
Now she is a serious American and Canadian teen idol, a top figure in the American entertainment industry, and the trumpet Britney.
However, the huge exposure and attention brought a lot of inconvenience to Avril Lavigne, which made her especially confused and depressed when she just became an adult.
"If you really feel uncomfortable, just take the time to relax somewhere where no one knows you. Asia and Europe are more suitable. If you can't come to China, I will make arrangements for you."
"Okay, let's go to China, we've made it a deal!"
Avril's eyes lit up and she immediately knocked Cao Xuan to death. The speed was so fast that Cao Xuan couldn't help but reflect on whether he had been fooled.
………
As the two people battled wits and courage, the Grammy Awards ceremony also officially began.
Avril Lavigne was clearly seated far away from Cao Xuan, but she still changed seats with the seat next to Cao Xuan, as if she was determined to be with Cao Xuan today.
Both of them are super-novas in the American music scene, and their positions and salaries are similar. Avril Lavigne is even better treated than Cao Xuan because she is white and highly popular.
She wanted to change seats, and her neighbor took advantage of her, so she walked away happily. The Grammy organizing committee was also happy with it, and even arranged for cameras to take more shots, which might just make a small splash.
Only Cao Xuan had a headache. If these photos or videos were spread to the country, the East and West palaces would not be able to deal with him.
Cao Xuan didn't hesitate for too long. After the awards ceremony was announced, the host came on stage to read the opening speech, and it didn't take long for the first performance to begin.
As mentioned before, each Grammy awards nearly a hundred or even more than a hundred awards, which takes a long time, so there are many performances arranged to keep it from being boring.
For this year's edition, the Grammys have arranged a total of about 20 performances, arranged between award presentations.
Cao Xuan came on stage in the second half of the show, and Avril Lavigne also had a show, around the middle of the show, which happened to be staggered in time with their award presentations, so it was convenient to go backstage to prepare in advance.
The order of the Grammy Awards is not determined every year.
Some are divided by category, some are divided by importance, and some are scattered, with one important award accompanied by several unpopular awards to ensure that the attention is as evenly divided as possible.
This year it was just a casual affair, with two awards in the ode category being awarded, and then the highlight was the "Best Album of the Year" from the four major categories.
An old white lady came on stage, she seemed to be a bel canto singer, she said a few words and took out the envelope.
During the TV broadcast, five storyboards appeared on one side of the screen, showing the five finalists, and the other side looked at the envelope in the old lady's hand.
“‘e Away With Me,’ Norah Jones.”
On the big screen, one of Cao Xuan's biggest competitors this year, Norah Jones, covered her mouth in surprise, her face full of disbelief.
The crowd applauded and congratulated, and Avril poked Cao Xuan again and asked in a low voice: "Do you think she is really surprised or fake?"
"Really."
Cao Xuan carefully observed Nora's expression. From his professional actor's point of view, there was no trace of performance and it should be a sincere expression.
Avril saw how serious he was looking at her and she couldn't help but feel sour: "Just look at her twice. Why isn't it over yet? She's not as good-looking as me?"
Cao Xuan pondered for a moment, glanced at Nora, turned back and glanced at Avril again, and said coolly.
"Taller than you, um... also older than you."
In this sentence, the former is extremely lethal to Avril, who is only 1.56 meters tall, not to mention the latter, no woman can stand it.
If it weren't for the camera, this girl would be so angry that she would bite someone, but she was no better now. With a smile on her face, she pinched and twisted Cao Xuan's thigh several times with her hands.
"Um……"
Cao Xuan snorted lightly, his expression as usual.
This strength is far inferior to that of the East and West Second Palace, and the position is not good either. If you want to be lethal, you have to aim at the thigh and... ahem, I won't go into details.
The two of them were doing little tricks here, and Nora also gave her acceptance speech. After the next award was awarded, a new program came. Cao Xuan was listening to the song below, acting as a ruthless applause machine.
Until the [Best Rock Song] award was presented, Cao Xuan straightened up and concentrated.
This award is one of the awards he was nominated for. Although the chance of winning is not high, there is no guarantee that a dark horse will make a counterattack.
The award presenter introduced on the stage that the live shots were on several finalists, and Cao Xuan got the most shots.
There was no way, Cao Xuan himself was quite calm, but Avril beside him had clenched her fists, her face was nervous and very eye-catching.
Cao Xuan's mouth twitched slightly as he looked at the cameras that kept coming and the strange looks from all around.
Sister, please restrain yourself, I can’t explain it anymore!
Cao Xuan did not suffer for too long. The award was announced, but he was not the one to win.
Disappointment is a bit disappointing, but Cao Xuan was mentally prepared. Avril wanted to comfort him, but he gave him a vaccination instead.
The next one is the one she was nominated for [Best Female Rock Singer].
Well, we lost as expected.
Before Avril opened her mouth, she ate half a bowl of chicken soup from Cao Xuan: "You are still young and your days will be long in the future. Don't be discouraged by a temporary failure..."
Let’s talk about the noise, another twenty minutes passed, and one after another, all the rock categories were almost finished.
Cao Xuan failed in all three awards, but Coldplay won the "Best Rock Band" as expected.
After giving the applause and congratulations, Cao Xuan's expression became a little serious.
There are still three nominations, and the chances of [Best Single of the Year] are slim. If the remaining two are missed and returned to China with a duck egg, it would be embarrassing.
Just when Cao Xuan was feeling the pressure, the [Best Newcomer] awards began.
Taking the stage to present the award was Janet Jackson, one of the four greatest divas in the United States and the biological sister of Michael Jackson.
She was considered a surprise guest this year. The moment she appeared, the crowd was a little surprised. Michael Jackson was troubled by the child case, and his sister was also affected and promoted many activities.
It was indeed a surprise to appear at the Grammy Awards today.
“This award always attracts much attention every year because they are the new blood in our music scene and music industry. Last year, many outstanding newcomers appeared.
Nora's jazz made me intoxicated, Avril Lavigne's punk rock opened a new wave of pop, John Mayer's singing resounded throughout all the campuses in this land...and Cao, his talent is simply amazing, it even reminds me of
Another person I know well."
Due to public opinion, Janet Jackson did not name the person, but everyone knew who he was talking about.
At this juncture, others might feel offended, but Cao Xuan, who understood the truth of the matter, did not feel this way, and even felt honored.
The world recognized King of Pop!
Even if you copy it, you may not be able to achieve that achievement, which can be compared with Michael Jackson. Even if it is just a polite word, it is enough to make Cao Xuan elated.
Janet Jackson said the opening remarks and then took out the envelope.
The camera shot towards the five finalists, and the live broadcast showed the states of the five people, either nervous, excited, worried, calm, confident, with different emotions, and various aspects of life.
Jenny slowly opened the envelope, glanced at the name on it, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and shouted loudly.
"Ch Ris Tsao (Cao Xuan), congratulations, Cao."
Even though Cao Xuan has experienced many battles, now he won the Grammy and created new history, he couldn't help but shake his fist a little.
Avril screamed with joy and rushed up to jump and hug Cao Xuan. Considering that she was also one of the finalists, people who didn't know thought she had heard the name wrong or gone crazy from the stimulation.
Cao Xuan, who had black streaks all over his head, put down Avril Lavigne who jumped on him. Cao Xuan was ready to return home and be bombarded by the East and West Palaces.
But at this moment, the joy of victory has overwhelmed everything. He took a breath, lifted his tie, and walked onto the stage amidst applause.
"Congratulations, your music is great."
"Thanks."
Cao Xuan hugged Jenny and gave them a kiss. As a result, he couldn't help but look at the gold record trophy in his hand several times. He shook his head and laughed while facing the gazes of countless people in the audience.
"Frankly speaking, I have won a lot of music awards, and I even served as a judge for some awards in China this year. But this time I felt the most different when receiving the award. At first, I thought I would be calm, but I couldn't.
Ignore the excitement in your heart."
The audience and guests in the audience gave understanding applause.
As the palace of pop music, Grammy has an extraordinary status among all singers. Maybe everyone has different experiences, but they empathize with each other and understand Cao Xuan's feelings very well.
Cao Xuan bowed slightly and continued: "As a Chinese singer, I feel very proud and proud to stand here today.
Compared with the United States, there is still a certain gap in our Chinese music scene, but all singers and musicians are working tirelessly for it.
I look forward to the day when I can become a bridge between Chinese music and international music, and everyone will work together to create the prosperity of the world's pop music scene.
…
I would like to thank my family and friends and all my colleagues. Without their support, I would not have this award.
I am also grateful to the Grammy for its openness and diversity. Perhaps on this day, we can create a new history for the Chinese music scene and the Grammy together."
After Cao Xuan finished speaking, he bowed and left the stage, and the venue burst into thunderous applause again.
No matter what they think in their hearts, facing a singer who has won glory for the country and a new history who has achieved zero breakthroughs, everyone will give themselves the respect they deserve...
