Starting with Super Girl, he began to train the Chinese entertainment industry.

Chapter 96: I really envy your talent.
Su Duo did not disappoint Shen Qing.

The recording was completed in just over three hours.

Shen Qing handed the cassette tape to Taihe Wheat Field, who would convert the file into an electronic version and send it to Dragon TV for review. If it passed, they would promote it according to plan.

Dragon TV.

Long Danni received the document.

She nervously pressed the play button.

The first thing you hear is a 15-second intro, a soothing piano solo that calms the mind. At 13 seconds, a dynamic drumbeat is introduced, and at 15 seconds, a strange voice makes Long Danni's eyes widen...

At first, Long Danni thought it was all over.

Who is this person?
Which professional singer sings like that?
The voice isn't smooth enough, the technique isn't sophisticated enough, it sounds like a duck's quack...

Shen Qing, are you kidding me?

Why not choose a better singer?
How can this possibly pass the supervisor's approval...?

But when the song entered the chorus at 1 minute and 30 seconds, Su Duo's shout sent Long Danni's soul soaring to the heavens, giving her a feeling of electric shock throughout her body.

"Run forward..."

Facing cold stares and ridicule

How can one truly appreciate the vastness of life without experiencing hardship?

Fate cannot force us to kneel and beg for mercy.

Even if blood is spilled all over my arms

Keep running

"With the pride of a child"

"..."

Long Danni was held captive for a full minute.

This chorus left her speechless. All her previous criticisms of the song and the singer were forgotten. Now, all she wanted to say to Shen Qing was: My God!

She immediately grabbed the USB drive and ran to the broadcasting room, plugged it into the computer, and turned on the loudspeaker: "Hello, hello, colleagues from the entertainment channel, this is Long Danni. We've just finished composing a theme song for 'Go! Good Boys,' which will be played now. After you've listened, please gather in the conference room immediately..."

Chen Gang was discussing matters with Li Jing in his office when he heard Long Danni's words and frowned: "Danni, what's wrong? Why are you in such a panic? Why didn't you come to report to me?"

Li Jing: "It sounds like a theme song?"

Just then~
Long Danni knocked on his door, "I'm sorry, Director Chen, I forgot to report to you, Shen Qing, he succeeded, he wrote a very powerful theme song..."

Chen Gang: "Be steady, Dani!"

……

Five minutes later, Chen Gang jogged into the conference room. Seeing that only four or five people had arrived, he slammed his hand on the table and shouted, "What's going on? Everyone else, come here right now!"

Shortly after.

Everyone is here.

Chen Gang, with his hands behind his back, solemnly said:
"Whether the 'Go! Good Boys' competition can be successful depends on your bonuses, and I don't want to say more... After the meeting, immediately come up with a publicity plan. I want everyone to hear 'Chasing Dreams with a Pure Heart' on every street corner..."

Long Danni: "Director Chen, should we report this to Station Master Liu?"

Chen Gang was startled. "Sorry, I almost forgot. Li Jing and Dani, you two come with me to report to the station director. The rest of you, get moving quickly."

Liu Chunshan's office is on the third floor.

When the group ran over, Liu Chunshan was drinking tea and playing with his birds. Seeing them in such a panic, he said unhappily, "What have I been telling you in meetings? Stay calm no matter what happens!"

Chen Gang: "Liu Tai, theme song, one's ready!"

Liu Chunshan rolled his eyes at them: "Is that all?"

After being told a few more things...

Long Danni used Liu Chunshan's computer to play "Chasing Dreams with a Pure Heart".

Although Lao Liu is not young anymore, he was a master dancer and singer in his youth, known as "Little Xu Wenqiang of the Bund," and captivated many young women and married women.

Even though he's almost 55, his appreciation for music is impeccable. He quickly decided, "Great! Awesome! Awesome! This song is very fitting for the occasion. Although the singer's skills are average, it still has a certain charm!"

Long Danni was overjoyed and seized the opportunity to say, "Liu Tai, Shen Qing also sent over the demo of 'My Sky.' I think it sounds great too. He wants to get Jay Chou and Wilber Pan to sing it..."

Liu Chunshan laughed and said, "Alright, let the public relations department contact Jay Chou and Wilber Pan. With two theme songs from us, what can Hunan TV compete with?"

By the time Long Danni finished arranging everything, it was already evening.

She finally had time to call Shen Qing back: "Good brother, we've already spoken to Enlight Media, and the Gala Band can perform on stage. We've also contacted Jay Chou and Wilber Pan's managers..."

……

Sunday, May 2006, 4.

The Pepsi Music Awards kicked off at the Beijing Exhibition Center Theater.

This is the grandest music awards ceremony ever held in mainland China, with numerous top singers and actors in attendance, making it no less prestigious than the Golden Melody Awards.

The red carpet event began at 4:30 p.m.

The first group to appear were He Jiong and Huang Zijiao, both of whom are the hosts of this year's awards ceremony and have extensive experience hosting entertainment programs.

Next up are the singers.

As we all know, the first people to walk the red carpet are never the big shots; they're usually just small fry.

The first singer to appear is Xue Zhiqian, who debuted after participating in "My Show" last year. He just released his first album "Xue Zhiqian", and the title song "Serious Snow" made him an overnight sensation.

The lyrics and music for this song were both written by Xue Zhiqian himself.

With such creative talent, some people call him "Little Shen Qing".

The female singer who walked the red carpet with him was Lin Junjie's junior, Jin Sha.

She also released her first solo album "Air" last year. The highly anticipated title track "Air" did not generate much buzz, but "Summer Breeze", composed by Lin Junjie, gained considerable popularity.

After that, Shin Band, Milk & Coffee, Ren Quan, and Chen Yi-rong, among others, took the stage in turn.

but.

They didn't elicit any cheers.

On the contrary, when Ye Yiqian and Ji Minjia came on stage later, the fans shouted their names, bringing the first small climax of the night.

This shows just how popular Super Girl has been in the past two years! Even Xue Zhiqian and Ren Quan can't compare.

Ji Minjia and Ye Yiqian entered the venue hand in hand. They didn't rush to sit down, wanting to take this opportunity to get to know their seniors better.

Ye Yiqian: "Shouldn't Liangying be the last one?"

Ji Minjia: I don't know, neither she nor Shen Qing came, they're probably at the very end of the line.

Ye Yiqian: "I'm so envious. I wish I could leave Tianyu like her."

Ji Minjia: "Didn't you recently meet that diver? He knows some leaders in the sports bureau. If you ask him to help you, you should be able to terminate your contract, right?"

Ye Yiqian: "I haven't decided whether I want to be with him..."

Ji Minjia knew what she was thinking and sighed, "Yiqian, forget about Shen Qing. He's so good to Liangying, he shouldn't be fooling around..."

Ye Yiqian suddenly chuckled and said, "Minjia, what do you take me for? I would never be a mistress or anything like that. Look at Gao Yuanyuan, she's been getting so much flak lately..."

At that moment, Gao Yuanyuan, who was at home reading the script for "Rob-B-Hood," suddenly sneezed, and the image of Shen Qing popped into her mind: "So annoying, I can't help but think of him every time..."

……

"Ah ah ah..."

"Writing with pen, singing with pen, a powerful vocalist."

"Go for it! Win the prize!"

Just then, shouts from fans could be heard outside.

Ye Yiqian pouted: "Zhou Bichang's fans must be crazy. When did they start calling her a powerful singer? Aren't they ashamed?"

Ji Minjia couldn't help but laugh: "She has a lot of fans who treat her like a treasure. She recently switched to Lelin Culture, and her fans are even more smug now."

……

Wong Ka Kui, Cao Fang, Wang Feng, Ada Choi, F.I.R., Hu Ge, Hu Yanbing, Yu Quan, Harlem Yu, Ah Niu, and Zhang Zhilin appeared in turn.

And Xie Xian too~
Old Xie is quite lucky; he kissed the host, Liu Yan, right after coming on stage.

soon.

The cheers from the audience reached another climax as Sun Yanzi arrived!

2005 can be described as a very successful year for Sun Yanzi.

At the beginning of the year, she won the Golden Melody Award for Best Mandarin Female Vocalist with her album "Stefanie" released in October 2004, while Jay Chou's "Seven Mile Fragrance" won no awards that year.

The reason is not that "Seven Mile Fragrance" is inferior to Sun Yanzi's.

Because "Ye Huimei" received multiple nominations in 2004 but failed to win any awards, Lao Zhou wrote "Grandma" to express his dissatisfaction with the Golden Melody Awards.

This directly led to the result...

Since then.

Jay Chou no longer fixated on the Golden Melody Awards.

……

After Sun Yanzi, an even larger group emerged.

The atmosphere reached its climax.

The fans' voices were hoarse from shouting.

Jay Chou, Jane Zhang, Elva Hsiao, Will Pan, and Vincent Fang all made an appearance together, and surprisingly, the person leading the way was an unfamiliar face.

Liu Yan quickly ran over to greet her.

Zhou Bichang and Li Yuchun, who were looking out from the doorway, felt uneasy.

The two, who should have been rivals, surprisingly broke through their previous unpleasant atmosphere because of Zhang Liangying, their common enemy.

In her past life, Li Yuchun was so angry that she didn't attend the award ceremony.

……

When the last group of singers on the red carpet appeared, everyone in the audience was puzzled.

Who are these three unremarkable-looking people?

I've never seen it before.

Su Duo and his two companions stood in front of the cameras waving, but the flashes barely went off as many reporters ran inside the venue to wait for the awards ceremony to begin.

Su Duo was extremely embarrassed.

but.

He clenched his fists, determined to impress everyone.

It was already 7 p.m., and the awards ceremony would begin in half an hour. The GALA band would be the first to perform, singing "Chasing Dreams with a Pure Heart".

At the same time~
Inside the venue, all the celebrity guests were greeting people they knew.

This kind of event is actually a large social circle. Many singers who didn't make it to the finals also come to participate, just to show their faces in front of the big shots and get noticed.

Shen Qing never knew he was so popular until he came to events like this. Every singer who saw him would take the initiative to greet him.

Even Wang Feng had a few words with him.

Zhang Liangying leaned close to his ear and giggled, "My boss, you're so amazing! Everyone wants to know you."

Shen Qing grinned and said calmly, "So, isn't it an honor for you to be with me? Do you still want to be promoted to private first class? A private first class is like my girlfriend. I respect my girlfriend very much and won't do anything messy!"

Zhang Liangying said with eager eyes, "It's an honor! It's my honor, sir! I'm not going to be a private first class anymore, I'm going to be a private second class. I'm not used to you being so gentle with me."

Shen Qing patted her shoulder, "Sit down first."

……

Jay Chou walked over, grinning, and said, "Brother, you'll be the coolest guy in the whole place later. You'll amaze everyone after GALA's performance, and then you'll amaze everyone again when Liangying wins the award. In the end, we'll find out that you wrote all the songs..."

Wilber Pan: "I really envy your talent!"

Xiao Yaxuan: "Me too!"

Vincent Fang: "I feel that after tonight, the Chinese music scene will be divided into two major groups: Yanzi in the East and Liangying in the West. Oh no... Yaxuan, you won't be angry if I say this, will you?"

Xiao Yaxuan: "..."
