Be a goddess from Tokyo

Chapter 449 World Cup

If you want to say what is the hottest thing on the Internet in March, except for Luo Quan winning the Oscar and sweeping the Grammys, it is probably that the World Cup will be held soon.

Since 02, Huaxia football has never entered the World Cup, and has not won any championships in competitions above the intercontinental level.

Huaxia football, when will it come out, is already a hot topic.

In the past, the fans still had ambitions for the World Cup, and felt that the international athletes could achieve better results.

Originally thought that 02 was the beginning, but unexpectedly it was the peak.

Since then, the national football team has gone from bad to worse. In the early years, they were able to wrestle with Japan and South Korea. Although they lost more and won less, it was not completely impossible.

And 10 years later, the national football team has basically lost the qualification to be compared with these two East Asian powerhouses. They can shine in the World Cup, but the national football team has difficulty even qualifying for a regional qualifier.

How many domestic chairmen have been changed every term, and have they been changed?After all, it is to change the soup but not the medicine.

Many foreign marshals were also invited, and the money was spent, and the effect was indeed somewhat, but in the end it was still unable to meet expectations, and it was still unable to break through the one-third-acre land of its own.

But this can't be blamed on the head of the coach, and I won't say the specific reason. It would be embarrassing to my family.

Once, fans dreamed that the national football team could also win the Hercules Cup one day.

After seeing the cruel reality clearly, the standard has been lowered many times. Now I only hope that the national football team can enter the World Cup, even if they can't get out of the group stage, it doesn't matter.

But after spending so much manpower and material resources, the national football team still failed in the World Cup qualifiers between South Africa and Brazil.

Not only the fans, but even the players themselves are desperate.

But there is no such thing as an absolute path, and although the preliminaries are no longer feasible, a living person cannot be suffocated to death by urine.

With the efforts of many parties, China won the right to host the World Cup in 18.

The world's three most prosperous times, the Olympic Games and the World Expo have already been held in Huaxia. Not only have they been held beautifully to show the development and strength of China to the world, but they are also one of the few countries that have achieved profitability.

Now that we have won the right to host the World Cup, it is a good thing that is beneficial and harmless to the country and the national football team.

Such as promoting tourism development and city exposure are very helpful.

Of course, ordinary people don't understand these big things. Everyone only knows that the national football team has finally entered the World Cup.

Because the host of the World Cup can skip the qualifiers and directly enter the group stage, regardless of their strength, they can play at least three games in the World Cup.

This can definitely be included in the top ten events that moved China in 2018. On the night of applying for the qualification, I don't know how many fans cried.

And the time soon came to the spring of 18, and there were only two months left before the opening game of the World Cup. The stadiums in major competition cities had already begun to be arranged, and the main roads of the cities were also erected to celebrate the 18 World Cup. , Billboards welcoming foreign tourists.

Because of the previous experience in hosting the Olympic Games, Huaxia is familiar with all aspects of planning and scheduling.

Now, everyone is immersed in excitement and joy, but the Chinese Football Association is probably not among them.

There is no need to say much about the strength of the national football team. All the teams that can enter the World Cup are strong teams. If they are kicked at home and lose by a big score, the national football team will not know how to apologize to the people of the country from top to bottom.

Although it's not like this has happened before, the competition is different after all. This is the World Cup, and the whole world is paying attention to it.

Therefore, in fact, the pressure on those who really want to play football is actually very high. All hope can only be pinned on the drawing of group numbers. China can be assigned to a weaker group, so that it may be better to lose.

However, the pressure is great, and the preparation work that should be done must not be left behind.

This World Cup is mainly organized jointly by the General Administration of Sports of China and the China Football Association. The results achieved are secondary. The main purpose is to show the demeanor of a big country and to be in line with international standards. It must be held in a lively and grand manner.

In terms of hardware, Huaxia has the best, fastest and most efficient construction team in the world, and the stadium will definitely not stretch your hips.

As for the software, every World Cup needs to produce theme songs and promotional songs, and promote them all over the world.

Counting the time, it's time for the promotional song to come out, but the General Administration of Sports hasn't got any particularly good works yet.

In desperation, the leader of the General Administration of Sports asked the GD Bureau for the problem.

Each department has a different division of labor. The General Administration of Sports is in charge of sports, and the GD Bureau is in charge of culture. Who should be asked to write songs must be the GD Bureau who has more connections.

After all, singers who can write good songs are not very easy to hire. If it is a GD game, the success rate will be much higher.

"Compose music for the World Cup?" Luo Quan had just finished taking photos of Chanel's new clothes, when Vice Minister Zhao came to him again for an errand.

"This is a good job. The Chinese Football Association is famous for having a lot of money. This time, it paid a very high price for the World Cup promotional song. If you can write it, you will definitely gain both fame and fortune." Minister Zhao said , but he never doubted Luo Quan's ability in his heart.

Whether you can write it or not depends only on whether Luo Quan wants to.

But when he saw that Luoquan hadn't replied for a long time, Minister Zhao still felt a little bit in his heart, and asked, "Is there any difficulty?"

Luo Quan replied immediately: "It is indeed difficult, there are too many songs, I don't know which one to give."

Minister Zhao suddenly beamed with joy: "If they are all suitable, then take them all out, the more the better!"

"Okay, I'll record the demo of the Chinese theme song first, and I'll talk about other promotional songs later." Luo Quan accepted the task very simply.

For her, this errand is not difficult at all, it just comes out of her mouth.

That night, Luo Quan finished writing the brother of "China Welcomes You".

The song is of course an adaptation of the Olympic theme song "Welcome to Beijing" (PS. The song is a good song, and the lyrics are good, but unfortunately the lyricist can't guarantee it at the end of the festival, and the two need to be viewed dialectically). It's a pity that it was born ten years late, otherwise 08 She will still be able to catch up with the [-] Olympic Games.

However, although the World Cup is not comparable to the Olympic Games, it is still one of the three major events in the world. The song can be used directly by changing the prefix slightly.

Of course, she would not have enough confidence to sing alone at this level of event, so when she sent the song to Vice Minister Zhao's mailbox, she added a sentence: If you can invite all the new and old singers in the Chinese music scene The whole chorus, the effect should be better.

"Good idea!" Department Zhao gave a brief evaluation, most of which were adopted.

But whether it can be done or not, we have to wait for these bigwigs to discuss.

The discussion didn't take too long, and Luoquan received the news that the proposal had been adopted the next day.

The efficiency of China's affairs is second to none in the world, especially for such national-level events.

After the plan for the chorus was finalized, the older generation of singers who were not very active in China were the first to be invited.

Some of these seniors' popularity can be traced back to the beginning of the century. At the beginning, they were also little kings and queens, but now they are basically in their early forties.

However, winning glory for the country has nothing to do with age. The government finding them is a double affirmation of their strength and fame. For Huaxia fans, it is tantamount to a vigorous Ye Qinghui grand ceremony .

After the seniors in the music industry had finished inviting, it was the turn of the newcomers.

Since we want to invite the Chinese entertainment industry, we must not only invite these seniors, young people are also an indispensable part.

Of course, not all cats and dogs are invited, and the strength, reputation and reputation can't be bad. In the end, only 20 people met the conditions, and Girls' Generation alone accounted for nine people.

From this point of view, the status quo of the Chinese music scene is fully revealed.

Fortunately, the seniors are strong enough, and the quantity and quality can be fully guaranteed. In the end, a chorus team of 73 people was assembled.

In addition to professional singers, there are also film history superstars from the three regions of Taiwan, Taiwan, Taiwan, and Taiwan. The high-ranking cafes are well-known existences in the whole country and even the world.

Such a chorus team can be said to be a barrier to entry for the kings and queens. They have no real skills and are not even good at talking to others.

Although Luo Quan is the composer of the song, she is still not in the C position.

The lead singer is Brother Chen Long, the only Oscar winner in China, a world-class action superstar who is as famous as Bruce Lee.

Although he is not a professional singer, no matter what the big occasion is, he can't go wrong if he presses the stage.

And in front of such an old senior, even Luo Quan, who was in the limelight at this time, couldn't take away the lead singer's position. Of course, she never thought about taking it from the beginning.

There are many filming locations for the chorus MV, all over the country in major cities, and the final chorus location where all members will be filmed is set at the Temple of Heaven in Beijing. The preparations for the shooting work are relatively long, and it is estimated that it will take about half a month to complete.

Therefore, the General Administration of Sports released the chorus list first, and warmed up the MV online.

And a choir that includes the essence of the Chinese entertainment industry can only imagine how big a sensation it caused.

"Chinese stars sing the theme song of the World Cup!"

In the hot search, is the news released by the official blog of the General Administration of Sports:
"The theme song of this World Cup was composed by Luo Quan. We are also honored to invite old and new artists from the Chinese entertainment industry to participate in the recording of the song. The following is the list of participating artists..."

Such a blockbuster immediately gathered as many as [-] comments:

"Oh my god, is this list real? I don't think so many big names have been invited to the Spring Festival Gala in all these years!"

"Many of these names only exist in my childhood memory. I would like to call them half of the Chinese entertainment industry!"

"This time it's true that Ye Qing is back, and they are all celebrities I know well!"

"Look carefully at these people on the list. No matter whether they are newcomers or seniors, those who can enter this list are the real big names!"

"It is only this kind of world-class event that can invite so many stars, which is amazing for my country."

"As expected, the creator of the song is indeed Luo Quan, looking forward to this "Huaxia Welcomes You"!"

………………

There is no doubt that such a choir turned out to be the most terrifying traffic black hole on the Internet in an instant, and hot topics about it appeared in all forums overnight.

With so many celebrities gathered together, no matter if they are fans or passers-by, it is inevitable to compare them.

People always like to distinguish between high and low levels.

The star choir this time can be roughly divided into three parts, one is a singer, one is a movie star, and the other is a member of the national team.

Because of the special status of the national team, there will be no discussion for the time being, and the film and television side has Brother Chen Long sitting in charge, so there is basically no contest.

So most people's eyes are focused on the singers.

Most of these singers are the most popular group at the beginning of the century, basically the most listened singers born in the 90s and 80s.

This group of people represents the golden age of the Chinese music scene. Everyone has popular classic songs, and every single one can beat [-]% of the current hot songs on the music charts.

The quality of songs in the two eras is not at the same level at all...if you don't count Luoquan.

It can be said that Luo Quan has forcibly lifted the two eras to the same height with his own strength.

There are as many as a dozen golden songs produced by her, and there are even divine comedies such as "In the Name of the Father" and "Chapter 7 of the Night".

After careful analysis, Luo Quan has the upper hand in both singing and musicality.

It is said that the Chinese music scene has been going downhill since 07, but this downhill point must have reached an inflection point in 16, because Luo Quan pulled this plummeting curve up with her talent.

It is definitely unfair to let her be the head singer of a person and an era. One reason is that there is no good helper besides her.

And the other reason is that she wants to appear a little scary, because she really has the ability to compete with the top singers of an era.

Fortunately, this is a competition of Chinese songs. If her English songs are also included in the competition, her advantage will be huge!

And when people listed the representative works of Luo Quan and her senior singers one by one, they had a clear understanding of her genius:

It turns out that a person can really be so strong.

This chorus of stars is destined to be recorded in history, and for the Chinese music scene, this chorus is also like a handover ceremony.

Those senior singers from the golden age handed over their brilliance to the younger generation, to be precise, to Luo Quan alone.

This represents the end of an era, but also the beginning of an era.

And Luo Quan is undoubtedly the most dazzling person in this era.
