Chapter 432: Best Newcomer to the Grammys
MrJin's three singles "If-I-Die-Young", "Tonight-I-Wanna-Cry", and "Halo" have all sold well, and so far, they have brought a total of hundreds of dollars to Kim Kyung-sung, and this is because Kim Kyung-sung has not performed any performances, otherwise the income would have been even more.
In addition, the reputation of the three songs is also very good.
The original "Tonight-I-Wanna-Cry" not only topped the most famous Billboard of the American music charts, but also remained on the charts for 20 weeks, peaking at No. 36.
"If-I-Die-Young" not only sold well on Itunes, sold double platinum, but also achieved the top position on the country song chart, with a top ranking of 14th on Billboard, and was generally praised by the public, with the most common comment being that the whole song is not only full of youthful fantasy and deep connotation, but also full of country atmosphere, natural and fresh, which makes people shine!
The later release of "Halo" was even more outstanding, with an impressive sales revenue, and it was on the Billboard for 31 weeks, and it lasted from last year until recently, with the highest ranking rushing to No. 5 and occupying the top 10 for 8 weeks.
Moreover, this "Halo" has grabbed the top 10 in many countries around the world, such as Australia, Greece, France, Ireland, Italy, Brazil, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Germany, and has won the championship in Norway, Slovakia, Brazil and other countries.
In this year's 47th Grammy Awards, MrJin was shortlisted for a total of three awards, namely Best Country Song for "If-I-Die-Young", Best Pop Male Singer for "Halo", and Best Newcomer for three excellent singles.
There will be such outstanding results, which is closely related to Jin Jingcheng's mystic strategy.
I want to be at the beginning. Jin Jingcheng will adopt a mystic strategy, not revealing that he is MrJin, not just out of a whim, or deliberately playing some real person without showing his face, but there is a potential reason, but this reason is buried in his heart and not said.
One of the main reasons for this is this. If Jin Jingcheng did not adopt a mystic strategy, but made a public appearance as soon as he came up, with his status as a yellow race, it would be impossible to achieve such excellent results now.
It is an undeniable fact that even in the United States, which claims to be very democratic, there is still racial prejudice in many places, and because of this prejudice, it is often difficult for yellow Asians to get ahead in the American entertainment industry.
Although Li Xiaolong, Cheng Long, and Li Lianjie have all made some names in Hollywood, it is not difficult to find out. They are all famous for their kung fu specialty, and if it weren't for Americans' special curiosity and interest in Chinese kung fu, they wouldn't have occupied a place in Hollywood.
And as an Asian singer, it is even more difficult to gain a foothold in the American music scene.
And now, Kim has done it with the help of mystic tactics.
It's a miracle, but also his wisdom, or a cunning.
But it is undeniable that judging by the current situation. His strategy was a success.
……
Los Angeles, USA, on the evening of February 14, local time.
The scene where many popular singers and veteran singers from Europe and the United States gathered, and the grand Grammy Awards ceremony is in full swing.
At this time, the award presenters on the stage were presenting the Best Newcomer Award.
The list of nominees is playing on the big screen. These include MrJin, Maroon-5 (Magic Red), Kanye West, young singer Joss Stone, German rock band Los-Lonely-Boys, and many more.
After the broadcast, the award presenters began to announce the winners.
"The winner of the 47th Grammy Awards for Best New Artist is...... Be...... He is the mysterious MrJin. ”
When the words fell, the scene where many singers and tens of thousands of viewers gathered suddenly became in an uproar.
Singers nominated by Maroon-5 (Magic Red), Kanye West, young female singer Joss Stone, and German rock band Los-Lonely-Boys were undoubtedly a little disappointed in their hearts, although they all applauded with smiles on their faces. Maroon-5, in particular, has the best chance of winning the best newcomer in the previous predictions.
MrJin has already been awarded two of the three awards shortlisted this time, and "If-I-Die-Young" failed to win Best Country Song. "Halo" also failed to help MrJin win Best Male Pop Singer, and right now, the winner of Best New Artist, one of the four biggest Grammy awards, turned out to be MrJin.
It was truly a moment to witness a miracle!
However, under the watchful eye, it was not MrJin who took the stage to accept the award, but the Black Eyed Pea Choir.
Yes, Kim Kyung-sung didn't attend the Grammy Awards tonight, he was absent!
Originally, the organizing committee of the Grammy Awards found Professor Wilson and asked Professor Wilson to inform MrJin, invite MrJin to attend the award ceremony, and even invite MrJin to perform the song "Halo" live at the Grammy Awards, but Jin Jingcheng refused, because Jin Jingcheng felt that he was unlikely to win the award this time, and at the same time felt that it was not the time for MrJin to be exposed.
In the absence of it, I didn't expect the current Best Newcomer Award to fall on MrJin.
This undoubtedly shows that the Grammys are indeed international music awards, which are more formal, unlike many awards ceremonies in South Korea, if the star does not attend, he will rarely be awarded the award he deserves.
At this time, the Black-eyed Pea Choir walked to the stage and accepted the award on behalf of MrJin, which was arranged by Professor Wilson, and if MrJin won the award tonight, the Black-eyed Pea Choir would accept the award instead, because the Black-eyed Pea Choir has a close relationship with Professor Wilson.
The Black Eyed Pea Choir has been shortlisted for several Grammy Awards with their 2004 album Let's-Get-It-Started, and has already won the award for Best Rap Group.
At this moment, Professor Wilson was sitting at the scene of the award ceremony, sitting in the VIP seat below, his heart was a little excited, and at the same time he complained a little about Jin Jingcheng, thinking in his heart: "This kid is really, he won such a big award as the best newcomer, and he was absent!"
"Uh...... Well...... The mysterious MrJin is still mysterious, and it is estimated that his person is not on Earth at all, maybe he has traveled to a planet in outer space!"
Fergie, the only female singer in the Black Eyed Pea Choir, joked into the microphone while holding the trophy for MrJin's Best Newcomer.
There was a burst of laughter at the scene.
Fergie then said, "Yes, we Black-eyed Peas accepted the award on behalf of MrJin, although we Black-eyed Peas would love to be friends with MrJin, but we must admit that we don't know who MrJin is, and we don't know what kind of acceptance speech he wants to make, which is really funny." ”
There was laughter again.
Fergie concluded: "But I'm sure this mysterious guy will make better music in the future, thank you!"
After speaking, to a round of applause, the Black Eyed Pea Choir walked off the stage.
……
Seoul is 17 hours ahead of Los Angeles, and at the same time, it was noon on February 15 local time in Seoul, South Korea.
Kim Kyung-sung was sitting in the president's office at JJC Entertainment Studio, watching the 47th Grammy Awards online.
When he saw that he had won the best newcomer, Jin Jingcheng's expression suddenly seemed to be crying and laughing...... (To be continued......)
