Volume 2 Commodity Society Chapter 236 Wonderful Because of You

For the failure of these two awards, Chen Feng also felt that the boss was unhappy, grandma's, isn't this a trick? The first nominee for the two awards was his long, but in the end they all failed.

There are still two nominations: Best R*B Male Vocalist and Best R*B Song, and the gold content of these two awards is obviously not comparable to the two awards (Best New Artist and Best Single).

The comedy star's prank just now obviously annoyed many people, and Chen Feng was also very upset with him. Most of the audience in the venue are relatively high-profile people who can maintain superficial restraint, but those outside the audience do not have their gentlemanly demeanor, and immediately curse the poor comedy star with the most vicious words, and they have said that they will never watch his movies and TV shows again, and call on everyone to boycott him. After scolding this comedy star who played countless fans and made them happy, almost everyone at the scene scolded the level of the Grammy judges. How can a newcomer like Long, the most popular American singer of the year or at the end of last year, not be the best newcomer? Even those die-hard Sprite Lynn fans are not too confident that their idol won this award from Long.

Even Sprite Lin herself is the same, but when she walked on stage to receive the Best Newcomer Award, her face was embarrassed and excited, and after hurriedly saying a few words of thanks, the guest turned out to be a "golden record player", and immediately stepped off the stage. And the applause of the audience, as before, was very few.

And during this time, the phones of the Grammy organizers were all busy, all of them were **phone calls from the audience in front of the TV, **the comedy star's pranks, and **and doubts about the fairness of the Grammys*. Before, the award for Best Single Long was unacceptable, but now even the Best Newcomer Award has been lost, which is unacceptable to the majority of LONG's fans.

Not to mention the eponymous album "long" of long, which has passed the time of this year's Grammy selection, take his "All Day" alone, this song appeared in the top ten of the American pop music chart Billboard as soon as it came out, and it also produced eight weeks of champions, this song injected a new musical element into R*B, it can be said that it opened a new trend of R*B's music, such a musician with musical talent and achievements, but could not get the Grammy Best Newcomer award, which is really difficult to convince the majority of fans.

"Long, you can choose to leave now**. Ya Dangs whispered to Chen Feng full of resentment, "I and our Jupiter Records will be on your side, and I believe that fans around the world will also support your decision." ”

The remaining two awards are really nothing short of Chen Feng or Jupiter Records. Adams was full of ambition and confidently thought that Long would definitely return with a full load, but he didn't expect that now the two most important awards have all failed, and he doesn't even have much confidence in the remaining two chicken rib awards. Think about it, Long's current fame, there is no need to participate in this Grammy, if he wins the award, it can certainly give him the icing on the cake, it will not have much effect, but if he came to the scene in person, he didn't win a single award, but some of the gains outweighed the losses, and it was not cost-effective. Adams now regrets a lot in his heart that he instigated Chen Feng to participate in this year's Grammys.

Chen Feng said in a good time: "Adams, if you come, you will be safe, and leaving the scene halfway is very impolite. Let's just sit and wait. I believe that I can still win at least one of the remaining two awards, and if I can't win any of them, it means that the Grammys are really rubbish. ”

Adams whispered, "The Grammys are rubbish, and a lot of people have criticized it before." This year's Grammys are destined to be a garbage awards ceremony because they didn't choose you as the best newcomer. ”

Chen Feng smiled and didn't speak.

At this time, an old gentleman with silver hair sitting next to him suddenly leaned over to Chen Feng and asked with suspicion: "Forgive me for taking the liberty of asking this Mr. Zorro, I heard them say that you are the legendary long." ”

Chen Feng was stunned for a moment, glanced at him, and Adams on the other side hurriedly stretched out his head to look at the old gentleman, and whispered to Chen Feng: "Long, this is Sir Walt, the president of Universal Music, and he is a nobleman in the United Kingdom. ”

Chen Feng nodded subconsciously, and when Sir Walter saw him admitting it, he was very happy to get closer, and said in a low voice: "Long, I am very happy to sit next to you, you are a great singer, just now everyone felt sorry for you for not being selected as the best newcomer, and so did I." ”

Chen Feng had no choice but to say politely: "thanks!"

"Oh, excuse me, long, but allow me to introduce myself, my name is Walt, and I'm an Englishman, and you can call me old Walt. With that, Walter held out his hand.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Walter. Chen Feng shook his hand politely.

Probably seeing that Chen Feng's attitude was not very enthusiastic, Walter was also interested, and directly handed Chen Feng a business card of his own, and said: "This is my business card, you can contact me when you are free in the future, and we can make friends." ”

Chen Feng took it and looked at it, it was a very ordinary business card, there was no title marked on it, just the name and contact information printed on it.

Chen Feng put away the business card, nodded to Old Walt, and continued to turn his gaze to the guest performance on stage.

After a hot cabaret performance, the host walked onto the stage, changed his previous ridiculing nature, and said seriously: "The next award to be presented is the R*B Best Song Award, and the nominees for this award are: Long's "All Sun", Destiny's Child "saymyname", ...... Now, I would like to invite Mr. Walt, President of Universal Music Company, to present this award to us, and Sir Walt. ”

Chen Feng and Adams couldn't help but be stunned when they heard that it was actually this Sir Walter beside them. It's a coincidence.

Old Walter turned his head sideways and smiled mysteriously at Chen Feng: "Long, my intuition tells me, this award belongs to you." ”

After saying that, old Walter got up from his seat and walked gracefully to the podium amid applause.

After the old Walter received the letter with the list of winners from the master of ceremonies, he opened it without any delay and read it out: "The winner of the 43rd Grammy Best R*B Song is long, and his "All Sun" deserves to win this award!"

But instead of bursting into cheers immediately, the scene seemed a little depressed, and it was obvious that everyone was worried about the previous prank again.

Old Walter had no choice but to continue to hold the microphone and pretend to be stern: "Ladies and gentlemen, I want to state that I am not a comedian, I am a gentleman. ”

The audience couldn't help but laugh when they heard it, and suddenly burst into earth-shattering cheers and shouts.

β€œLong!”

β€œlong!”

……

Quite a few people began to chant Long's name neatly.

The host lost no time in shouting: "Let us warmly welcome Wang Long, a well-deserved newcomer in today's American music scene, to the stage to accept the award!"

This time, Adams was sure that it wasn't a prank, although this award was not comparable to the Newcomer Award and the Single Award, but it was better than nothing, Adams still hugged Chen Feng with excitement on his face.

Chen Feng's visit to the Grammys to wear the Zorro suit has long been announced to audiences around the world through the live broadcast of the TV media. Therefore, of course, the photographer who took the scene was given Chen Feng's seat in advance, and he had already taken special care of him several times and pulled the lens to him several times. This time, the camera was directly set to him.

Chen Feng was somewhat excited in his heart, this award is the first time that Chinese have won an award on the Grammys, and it can be regarded as a significant dΓ , because many people in China regard this false name as very important and persistent, although Chen Feng does not take this American's award very seriously, he is still somewhat proud in his heart.

He took a few deep breaths, then got up from his seat and walked towards the podium.

After receiving this "golden record player" from old Walt, the scene once again erupted in thunderous applause and cheers.

"Long, what do you have to say to the audience in front of the TV now?" The host handed the microphone to Chen Feng, for the most popular singer in the United States today, he originally planned to ridicule a few words, and even a few days ago, he specially prepared a few tricky questions for Long, and humorous lines to set off the atmosphere. But because of the previous experience, and with the special instructions of the backstage director, he had to put away his talk show hosting style.

Chen Feng picked up the microphone and routinely thanked: "I want to thank my family first, especially my parents, in addition to Adams, the president of Jupiter Records, who has given me a lot of help, and I am very grateful to my fans, LONG can achieve such a big result today is inseparable from your support, with you I have this LONG, thank you!"

After Chen Feng said the above words, he handed McPhee to the host. The host couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and immediately handed him the microphone again, asking, "Long, what else do you have to say to the fans in front of the TV?"

Chen Feng glanced at him and said with a smile: "Since you are so enthusiastic, then I will say one more thing, I have decided that the next Grammy will not participate! That is to say, no matter whether I am nominated for the next Grammy or not, whether I have won an award, I have decided not to participate!"

As soon as he said this, it was equivalent to slapping Grammy's mouth on the spot, and the audience was in an uproar. Long's words undoubtedly show that he expressed a strong ** for his defeat in the two awards just now. The host regretted it so much that he almost gave himself a few mouths, if he hadn't asked, Long wouldn't have said this.

Chen Feng didn't care about the host who stood on the stage with an embarrassed face, and directly took the "golden record player" off the stage. The audience along the way stood up and applauded him, welcoming him back to his seat like a triumphant hero.

The live camera faithfully recorded this footage.

"Long, I admire your courage. Walter Sr., who caught up behind him, walked side by side with him with a look of admiration on his face, "It's not that no one has publicly rejected the Grammy before. But in front of hundreds of millions of people around the world, such an official announcement is clearly the first example. This Grammy is wonderful because of you, and it is also tarnished because of you. ”

Chen Fengquan didn't hear the old man's nagging, was silent, and returned to his seat and sat down.

"Long, you did a good job!" Adams smiled at this time, looking even more proud than he had done, and lowered his head and whispered to Chen Feng, "Tonight's Grammy Awards party is destined to be yours alone, and tomorrow's newspaper headlines will definitely be competing to report about what you did today, and you are a well-deserved king." I've decided that when I go back tonight, I'll increase the circulation of your debut album again, and you're going to do a miracle. Then you will be God! No, you are God now!"

Adams obviously thought that Chen Feng would inevitably detonate the world's public opinion after the Grammys this time, and the ensuing continued sales of Long's debut album would of course.

Adams looked forward to the good money that "Long" would bring to the company, but his mind was still a little clear, and he immediately reminded: "Long, although you are now publicly refusing to participate in the next Grammys, I hope that you will continue to perform on stage later." ”

Chen Feng nodded, he is a person who has a beginning and an end, since he has decided to stay and get the end of this Grammy ceremony, he naturally has to do his part.

After being embarrassed for a while, the host on the stage diverted the topic a little clumsily and invited the next guest performer to perform on stage.

After several awards and performances, it was Chen Feng's turn to nominate for the last one - Best R*B Male Singer.

When encountering the award nominated by LONG, the host had to put away his humor cells again, read out the shortlisted candidates according to the script, and then invited the award presenters to the stage.

This time, the guest of honor is also not small, he is the vice president of the American Music and Arts Association, this is a very strict look of the sixties old black man, he has no extra nonsense, take the letter and read it directly, simply and clearly: "The winner is long! Let's congratulate him!"

Even though it was the second time to applaud and cheer for the long, the sound of the live was as good as the first, which is understandable, and it is clear that the best R*B male singer is a little heavier than the best R*B song.
