Chapter 60: People who left their mark in Grammy history
"Next up is 'Single of the Year', and the nominees are:

"My Heart Will Go On", songwriters, James Horner and Will Jennings

"Baby", Lyon Zhang, songwriter

"

Zhang Chen competed with the two queens, and the award presenter quickly opened the envelope:
"The winner is, 'My Heart Will Go On', songwriter, James Horner and Will Jennings, congratulations!"

There's really no comparison. The song "My Heart Will Go On" is a classic that will make anyone who hears it feel frustrated.

"Congratulations, Celine Dion." Zhang Chen also sent his blessing to Celine Dion, just like when he won the award just now. Although this award is mostly given to songwriters, as the singer of this song, he can also go on stage with the songwriter to receive the award, but it is the songwriter who receives the award.

Domestic listeners on the other side of the ocean also learned through broadcasts that this song was the theme song of the recent movie "Titanic".

So although I feel sorry for Zhang Chen missing out on the grand prize, I also feel that it is reasonable.

If this award is taken away by Zhang Chen, then there must be something fishy going on.

Another Grammy Award comprehensive award ceremony was held. Zhang Chen won two of the four major awards. He also had a nomination for Best Single, but Celine Dion was still standing in his way. He no longer had any hope.

However, there was a small incident when the rap music award was presented.

After the presenter announced that the Best Rap Singer winner was Will Smith, this guy mentioned Zhang Chen in his speech after receiving the award.

"Leon, I thought you were a pop singer, but you released a rock album this year. How can I win awards in the future?"

In response to Will Smith's question on the stage, Zhang Chen, without a microphone, could only make a classic rock music gesture with both hands, as a response to the gesture Smith made to him from the audience at the last Grammy Awards.

In the following award ceremony, many top singers performed, including the queen who handed the note to Zhang Chen - Madonna.

After she finished singing, before she had time to return to her seat, she was invited back to the stage by the award presenter and won two pop awards, "Best Pop Dance Recording" and "Best Pop Album".

However, she did not even receive a nomination for the most prestigious award in pop music, Best Female Pop Vocalist. In the end, the award was won by Celine Dion with "My Heart Will Go On".

When it came to "Best Male Pop Vocalist", Zhang Chen unsurprisingly lost to his senior, the legendary Eric Patrick Clapton.

In the end, when the "Single of the Year" was announced, it unsurprisingly lost to Celine Dion.

Zhang Chen had anticipated winning these two awards, so when the singing camera swept across his face, his facial expression did not show any loss, but was instead filled with congratulations to the first two singers.

"The winner of the 'Best Instrumental Composition Award' is Leon Zhang!"

"The winner of the 'Best Performance and Arrangement Award' is Leon Zhang!"

Fortunately, Zhang Chen won two awards in the composition and arrangement categories, which are very important for composers.

Perhaps it was because the single "My Heart Will Go On" won too many awards in various categories. In order to balance the considerations, the organizing committee compensated Zhang Chen with the marginal award for losing two awards.

After all, considering the sales of the album, Zhang Chen's album has sold 3400 million copies worldwide so far, which is enough to prove the excellence of "Leon" in lyrics and music. When accepting the award, Zhang Chen thanked everyone again and responded to what Will Smith said on the stage just now.

"Will, what you may not know is that I also released an ancient music album in Asia. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to describe it as classical music here?" Zhang Chen's expression looked like he deserved a beating. After saying this, he didn't forget to add, "You didn't expect that I would be able to stand up and receive the award again, did you? Hahaha."

Will Smith's expression at this time is probably:
Time passed quickly. After the last award was presented at the 41st Grammy Awards, all the guests moved to the outside for the final group photo session, which was a combination of sadness and joy.

The singers or producers holding the "Golden Gramophone" happily cooperated with the reporters' cameras, among which Hill, Celine Dion, Madonna and Zhang Chen were the most dazzling.

Other winners may only have one trophy in their hands, but the trophies in their hands are so many that they can’t hold them with both hands.

Among them, Hill won four trophies, Celine Dion won the two most valuable trophies of "Single of the Year" and "Best Pop Female Singer", and Zhang Chen also won the "Best Album of the Year" among the four general awards and two other "Lyrics and Music" awards that proved his identity as a creator.

Madonna won most of the awards in the pop category, including three major awards including "Best Pop Album".

Zhang Chen and the other four can be said to be the biggest winners of this year's Grammy Awards.

Zhang Chen has now won Grammy Awards for two consecutive years for his two albums, bringing him one step closer to Pat Metheny's record of winning six albums in six consecutive years.

There are also Hal Blaine, who has won the "Record of the Year Award" for six consecutive albums.

There is also George Shorty, who has won 38 Grammy Awards.

There was also Michael Jackson, who received 12 nominations at a single Grammy Awards ceremony and ultimately won 8 trophies.

At the same time, there is also the record of the youngest person to win a Grammy Award, which was broken by Zhang Chen last year.

Those who keep the records will leave a significant mark in the history of world music.

This news was also revealed by Morning Glory Entertainment, which sent Zhang Chen’s achievements in the past two years to various media.

So Zhang Chen, who is far away in the United States, is not clear at this moment what he will face when he returns to China.

On February 99, 2, at the Capital International Airport, Zhang Chen and his group's flight slowly landed.

His original plan was to secure investment from an American Internet company after winning the Grammy Awards and then go to the United States to discuss the Harry Potter film series project with Warner Bros. and Rowling.

However, the plan could not be changed because domestic media were trying to interview Zhang Chen as soon as possible through various connections.

Finally, an old senior colleague used his connections to find Zhang's father, who was teaching at Beijing Foreign Studies University. Zhang Chen and Sun Fangping had no choice but to decide to return to China first to deal with the turmoil before going to Yingguo.

Fortunately, the time agreed with Rowling was on the 30th.

Therefore, their return to China now does not delay their schedule, but they need to accept interviews from multiple media outlets in China, which means they will have less time to rest abroad.
