Low Key Star - Chapter 270
Chapter 270 [270] Nuwa Award and old acquaintances
After celebrating Lin Yiran’s birthday, Zhang Yang’s next most important schedule is the presentation of the Nuwa Award. This is the 29th edition of the most important award for Chinese music, which began in 1965. It does not need to spend as much publicity as Phoenix and Prisoner Bull. As long as there is news about it, it will cause great excitement in the circle. focus on.
This is the background accumulated over the years, which stems from the recognition deep in people’s hearts. It cannot be compared in a short period of time by the two families of Phoenix and Prison Niu.
The fact that Zhang Yang won eight nominations has been reported by the major media. After the upsurge caused by the disclosure of Zhang Mu’s identity and participation in the Condor God has not completely subsided, this news has added to the heat, and for a while In the media and the Internet, it seems that Zhang Yang is about to win the most important so-called “Heavenly King” award at the Nuwa Awards, creating a legend that has never been seen in the entire Chinese music scene in one fell swoop.
The eight nominations for the Nuwa Award are indeed a bit scary, but Zhang Yang actually got eight nominations with two albums, plus one of them is “Best Newcomer”. In fact, there are only seven nominations for songs. , Phoenix’s nomination is not that exaggerated.
Of course, for a rookie whose debut is less than one year old, this achievement can be called brilliant no matter what.
In addition to Best Newcomer, the other seven nominations are:
”Sunny Day” Most Popular Song of the Year
Nunchaku’s most popular song of the year
”A Thousand Miles Away” Most Popular Song of the Year
“Dongfeng Po” best lyrics of the year
The Best Album of the Year by “Voice Overseas”
”Zhang Shouyi” best album of the year
Zhang Yang Best Lyricist of the Year
The eight nominations are all very important awards. Among them, the “Most Popular Song of the Year” award is almost second only to the “Most Popular Singer of the Year” award. Three songs from the same singer were nominated In this situation, and there are only four songs competing for this award, it can almost be said that this heavyweight award is already in Zhang Yang’s pocket.
This is the first time in the history of Nuwa Award.
In addition, there are also awards related to Zhang Yang, but not in his name, such as the best music short film of the year in “Chrysanthemum Terrace”, He Yanping’s best album producer of the year, Wei Xiang’s best music of the year Short film directors can be said to have been blessed with two albums.
Because of “Thousands of Miles Away” and “Chrysanthemum Terrace”, the program team also sent an invitation letter to Lin Yiran. She was a little hesitant. It’s the Nuwa Award…
Seeing the entanglement in her heart, Zhang Yang arrogantly made a decision for her, asked for leave together, and flew to Yucheng, where this year’s event was held, on the 3rd. Just like “Zhang Yang sent flowers to Lin Yiran by the roadside” was on the hot search on his birthday, the fact that the two appeared at the airport hand in hand was also reported by many media.
Apple Daily, which had just expressed its apology and reconciliation for the last “screenshot” incident, didn’t know whether it was for a gimmick or a show of favor this time, so it directly used “Zhang Yang is full of confidence in the Nuwa Award, and Xie Lin is still going to receive it together” The headline “Awards” expresses very optimistic wishes for Zhang Yang’s trip to the Nuwa Awards. It seems that Zhang Yang has won several awards such as best newcomer, best lyrics, best album, and most popular song, creating a first-time Appearing at the Nuwa Awards and winning several awards in a row, I firmly believe that this is an achievement that has never been done before or since.
Not to mention publicity, even many of his fans felt a little blush and guilty when they saw such reports.
Arrived in Yucheng, after settling down in the hotel, Zhang Yang accepted a short interview arranged by the organizer and selected by himself. Zhang Yang chose an acquaintance, the male reporter who sneaked into the school to take pictures at the beginning of school last year and helped stop the female reporter.
The name of this person is Wang Hanping, who belongs to Jiangnan Entertainment Weekly. Thanks to Zhang Yang’s exclusive interview, he got the opportunity to be valued by the company. He also seized the opportunity. Now he is a well-known reporter in the industry. Zhang Yang has a good impression of him Well, last year’s interview was relatively to the point, without any exaggeration, this time I happened to see his name, so I made a personal favor.
The location of the interview was in Zhang Yang’s room. It was quite unexpected to meet acquaintances, because there was a young girl who walked into the room with Wang Hanping. She was not tall, but she had a good figure. She was sweet and cute, wearing a white shirt and black skirt. The professional attire still looks a little green.
Zhang Yang saw her, she also saw Zhang Yang, bowed politely, waved his hand slightly, Zhang Yang also smiled at her, stood up beside her and said, “What a coincidence?”
Wang Hanping was slightly taken aback, looked at the girl next to him, then at Zhang Yang, and said in surprise, “You know each other?”
Zhang Yang laughed and said, “Our high school belongs to the same school. Last year…uh, it should be the year before last. She interviewed me when I was in school.”
Zhang Yang remembered the girl’s name, Li Qinghe, who was a student reporter for Qingcheng No. 2 Middle School’s “Gossip” magazine, and interviewed him during class because of his “jumping suicide by jumping stairs”. A high price of one hundred yuan per minute has been offered.
She was in the same class as Zhang Yang, and she should be a freshman now, but she didn’t expect to become a reporter for Jiangnan Entertainment Weekly.
Li Qinghe is very clear that the behavior of interviewing Zhang Yang at the beginning was a bit disgusting to him. She was a little worried at first, but she became an intern reporter for a media such as Jiangnan Entertainment Weekly in her freshman year. Some people died, but compared to Zhang Yang’s changes in just one year, it was nothing at all.
In a big environment like the entertainment industry, the status of the two parties is not equal nowadays. If Zhang Yang really holds grudges, what kind of revenge and humiliation will be done to her? If she wants to continue in this circle, she must maintain her current relative For the first-mover advantage of classmates and peers, the most sensible approach is to greet each other with a smile and eliminate the rift.
Li Qinghe is not very old, but she has honed her maturity and rationality far beyond ordinary peers through many activities and experiences in her student days. To publicize her current status, it can be said to be a big deal for her who has an alumni relationship. Whether she can seize the opportunity will directly affect her career future.
After getting the quota to go to the Nvwa Award, he made many predictions about the development after meeting Zhang Yang. Under the guideline of “Hope for the best, prepare for the worst”, she envisioned a lot of things with Zhang Yang. The way to get closer is to make a mental preparation to pay something and not give up even if you break through the bottom line.
However, no matter how optimistic she was, she never thought that Zhang Yang, who was impatient, even disgusted, and refused to pay high prices during the interview, which was relatively “honorable” and “high climbing” for him in school, would be in front of him. He is so enthusiastic about himself when he is in a high position and a single word can greatly affect his future development.
In a high school, I interviewed in the second year of high school… Such words are enough to directly affect the decision of the higher authorities on their follow-up arrangements.
She changed her mind very quickly, and immediately put away her respectful and slightly polite expression, showing a warm and relaxed smile, and said with a smile: “What kind of interview is that? There are so many people in the school who want to be interviewed. You don’t even accept the tipping of money…”
After showing the joy of seeing her old classmates, she quickly returned to her work attitude, and said a little embarrassedly: “Oh… well, I’m an intern now, and I’ll help Brother Wang.”
Zhang Yang gave her thumbs up and said with a smile, “Amazing!”
Li Qinghe said: “That can’t compare with you.”
After tacitly accepting Zhang Yang’s kindness, she stopped smiling to avoid getting too much limelight.
Wang Hanping already had a good impression of Li Qinghe. At this time, he accidentally learned that Li Qinghe had such a relationship with Zhang Yang. It seemed that they had a good relationship in high school, and his evaluation of this beautiful student immediately went up one step after another.
Last year’s exclusive interview with Zhang Yang can be said to have changed Wang Hanping’s career. If it wasn’t for Zhang Yang, he wouldn’t know how long he would have had to wait for such an opportunity. He was already a little grateful to Zhang Yang, but this time he unexpectedly got the opportunity to interview Zhang Yang , I somewhat understood in my heart that this stemmed from last year’s incense, and fortunately, I was more determined to seize the resources of this Tianzihao.
Wang Hanping had spent a lot of time trying to figure out Zhang Yang’s character, and he didn’t show much respect and caution at this time. Instead, he carefully controlled his tone and demeanor, grasped the measure, and tried to show a relatively easy-going and casual atmosphere just right. Zhang Yang spoke, but smiled at Li Qinghe: “So there is such a relationship, you never said it before, and you just scared me.”
The tone and demeanor are more harmonious than usual, almost like old colleagues chatting and joking.
Li Qinghe explained with a little embarrassment: “No… I’m not afraid… uh…” I didn’t say the rest, but I made it clear. One is that I don’t want to publicize it myself, and the other is that Zhang Yang is not what he used to be, and he doesn’t want to talk to himself. Having a relationship is also a tactful way to express that he is not very familiar with Zhang Yang.
Zhang Yang smiled and said, “Are you afraid that I will pretend not to know you?”
Li Qinghe hurriedly said: “No…I didn’t mean that…”
Zhang Yang said: “Just kidding… sit first and do it first, don’t turn around and say that I abused my old classmates.”
Normally speaking, even if a seat was offered, Wang Hanping, who was an exclusive reporter, would chat with Zhang Yang face to face. Li Qinghe could only stand by the side, but Zhang Yang wanted to give her an extra chair, and Wang Hanping naturally couldn’t refuse. After the small talk just now, the atmosphere is undoubtedly much more relaxed.
Wang Hanping first gave Zhang Yang a review of the scheduled interview questions. After Zhang Yang took them over, he rejected questions unrelated to this Nuwa Award, such as novels and “Sculpture of Gods”. He came to refuse to answer in order to express his position and spread further information about the separation of the two identities to the outside world.
When appearing as Zhang Yang, he will not be interviewed for the content of the novel.
Questions about the Nüwa Award are relatively routine, and Zhang Yang also follows the more official and conservative answers. Anyway, everyone is looking at people, and how to answer is not that important. However, after the question about the Nüwa Award, when Wang Hanping asked about the new song plan, Zhang Yang thought After thinking about it, he gave an answer that surprised Wang Hanping.
“The new album is already in production… Uh, I might release a single this month. It was written for Yiyi’s birthday a few days ago… She thinks it’s not bad, so let’s release it first. Let’s listen to it first. Of course , this is not included in the album, there will be no less than ten songs in the album…it should be.”
When he said this, he couldn’t help laughing, “Of course I can’t tell. If I really can’t write it by then, maybe I will put this song in the album to make up the number.”
Wang Hanping was very efficient. After Zhang Yang had dinner, he saw the interview video and transcripts published by Jiangnan Entertainment Weekly. Among them, the one that attracted the most attention and discussion was the news that he was going to release a new song. Lin Yiran’s birthday was no secret. Especially after the news of “delivering flowers by the roadside” a few days ago, many fans popularized the matter of “Lin Yiran’s birthday”, but this way of celebrating is really a bit incomprehensible, especially when many people found that bouquet After the details of the flowers.
But it wasn’t until this time that people knew that he wrote a song for Lin Yiran’s birthday. For a while, the fans rejoiced. Each came once, and some people were amazed and said that they had never seen such a boyfriend celebrating his birthday, let alone a singer celebrating his girlfriend’s birthday like this. In the evening Zhang Yang and the others ate hot pot, together with He Yanping, Wei Xiang and others. When they saw the news, they would naturally be a little teased.
Wei Xiang is also a newcomer in the field of MV directors. To be nominated like this is an unexpected surprise, and it is a reunion after a long absence. Since the meeting, his attitude has been very enthusiastic.
Zhang Yang still remembers the female director’s “animated movie dream”. He actually has a few favorite animated movies in his memory, but he doesn’t want to make foreign ones, but domestic ones… To be honest, there is room for improvement, and all It won’t be fixed in a while.
The most important thing is that he made a lot of money, but he spent a lot of money on the investment of “Sculpture of God” and “League of Legends”, and he has to make movies next. Indeed, one should be more cautious.
When he was quite surprised, while chatting while eating hot pot, Wei Xiang took the initiative to talk about his next move, saying that he had found a project for an animation TV series. Although it was a new company that had just been established, he was willing to give it a try.
From what she said, the risk seems to be relatively high, but this is Wei Xiang’s dream, and she is willing to pursue her dream. Naturally, it is not easy for outsiders like Zhang Yang to persuade them, and they didn’t talk too much about this topic. The Wa Award is the main one.
After dinner, he went back to the hotel. In the corridor, Zhang Yang saw Liu Zhinan again unexpectedly. Due to the “scandal” some time ago, Lin still remembered her, and looked at her curiously. She was a little embarrassed, but still greeted her calmly, Lin Yiran responded politely, Zhang Yang also smiled and said a few words to her casually, and then entered her room holding Lin Yiran’s hand.
