The richest person in Chinese entertainment

Chapter 92 I apologize to Sister Fei first
"You are so willful!" Zhang Yadong couldn't help but give a thumbs up after hearing the numbers reported by Zhang Chen.

Is this the financial power of a Grammy Award winner and a frequent Billboard No. 1? I'm scared.

"It's okay to do this internationally, but you have to be careful domestically, right? The Same Song has invited the princess, and I don't believe they didn't invite you." Zhang Yadong seemed to be reminding Zhang Chen to be careful and not get too cocky.

Zhang Chen felt a bit of a headache when he heard about this program.

In fact, the original intention of "The Same Song" is good, and it is also the highest stage that singers can step onto in many years to come.

It can be said that all singers who have appeared on "The Same Song" have their strengths recognized.

However, there were also many controversies following this program.

One issue per week, 52 issues per year. Even if there are many cities and a large population in the country, it cannot withstand such frequent large-scale concerts.

The performance fees of many stars have been cut again and again, with the reason being "charity performance" to raise funds.

The songs on the show also require a contract to allow the program team to use the copyright for free.

It would be fine if it was really for charity, but it became more and more outrageous later on.

Zhang Chen will go, and he has to go, but not now. After all, it is once a week, so it doesn't matter which issue he goes.

"Let's talk about it later. I said I wanted to prepare for the Spring Festival Gala, but I rejected it." Zhang Chen rubbed his forehead. This was really a headache. This troublesome matter had to be solved one day.

I can use the Spring Festival Gala as an excuse this time, but I don’t know what excuse to use next time they come calling.

"Then you have to go to the Channel V awards ceremony, right? I remember you missed two of them."

The award ceremony that Zhang Yadong mentioned is the "Global Chinese Chart" hosted by Channel V.

The Best Newcomer of 97 was awarded to Zhang Huimei, who was teaching at school.

The Best Newcomer of 98 was awarded to Zhou Junwei and Lin Xiaopei, and he was still attending classes at school.

The 99 awards ceremony was held at the beginning of this year. During the rehearsal of this year's Spring Festival Gala, someone came to pass on a message that it would seem a bit deliberate if I didn't go.

"I will go. This year's award ceremony should be very interesting." Zhang Chen had something in mind.

Zhang Yadong didn't understand why, but when he heard that Zhang Chen would go, he felt relieved for him.

In fact, he was really worried that Zhang Chen would not be able to win this award or that award in the country, which would easily narrow his path.

Now he is bound to Zhang Chen to a certain extent, and he also needs some awards to rely on.

If Zhang Chen continues to be so willful, it will be difficult for him to make a breakthrough.

On January 1, Zhang Chen, who did not attend the premiere of "The Same Song" two days ago, appeared at the "Global Chinese Music Chart" awards ceremony.

"Hey, Zhang Chen, what a rare visitor! Haven't seen you for a long time!"

Wang Fei is one of Zhang Chen’s few “acquaintances” in the Chinese music scene. Whether it is the many rehearsals of the Spring Festival Gala or the private exchanges in Chen Guang’s recording studio, she is the one he meets the most in the entertainment industry.

"You make it sound like it wasn't you who played mahjong with my mom the other day." Zhang Chen sat down next to the princess. This seat was arranged by the organizer.

"How dare you bring that up? Give me the money now! I lost a huge sum of money to your mother the other day." The princess spread her hands in front of Zhang Chen, motioning Zhang Chen to return the money she had lost.

"If you're not good at playing cards, just practice more. Besides, why do you ask me for money?" Zhang Chen gently slapped the princess's hand.

"You can say that I don't sing well, but you can't say that I'm bad at playing cards!" Zhang Chen's words seemed to step on the princess's cat's tail, causing her to loudly retort.

Zhang Chen thought about it and felt that he might be sorry for the princess today, so he put a dollar in her hand.

It became Zhang Chen's habit to carry a dollar with him, and the people around him also suffered from it, such as the princess who had heard of it.

"What are you doing? What bad ideas are you having?" The princess' heart began to beat when she saw the dollar in her hand.

She had heard Zhang Yadong complain many times, saying that if Zhang Chen gave someone a dollar, it meant he was going to cheat them.

"How could that be? It's none of your business, Sister Fei. Someone owed me a debt and came to collect it today. It's this person." Zhang Chen didn't say anything else, and he didn't know if the two of them were together at this time.

I remember that the two of them seemed to have met at Anita Mui’s party last year?

"Who is that?" When the princess heard that it was not herself, she became curious. As long as it was not a trap for her, it would be fine.

Zhang Chen didn't reply, but glanced back.

That person is not qualified to sit in the same row with Zhang Chen and the princess.

"Nicholas?"

"Cough cough cough." When Zhang Chen heard the English name, he went over the Chinese translation in his mind, and the words he wanted to say were choked back by his own saliva.

That's right, Xie Tingfeng's English name is Nicholas Xie

Zhang Chen thought, fortunately no one has used this English name to make a joke yet.

"Sister Fei, don't blame me for not giving you face when the time comes." The two of them were considered friends, so they gave the princess a heads-up in advance so that she could be mentally prepared.

"It's not too much, is it?" Maybe they are not together yet at the moment, maybe they are just simply at the stage of having a good impression of each other, so he just asked as a friend.

"I think so?" Zhang Chen was not sure if this was too much. "What if I don't win the prize? Then I won't be able to talk about this matter."

After hearing Zhang Chen's last words, the princess rolled her eyes.

Not giving the award to Zhang Chen? Then don't give this award anymore.

Hong Kong's "Top Ten Chinese Songs" has become a complete laughing stock because of Celine Dion's line "Where's Zhang Chen?"

Although there is still the excuse that "Zhang Chen is not from Hong Kong Island", which is both an excuse and a fig leaf, it cannot avoid the outside world's doubts about the fairness and authority of this award.

Is the “Global Chinese Music Chart” going to follow in the footsteps of the Hong Kong Golden Melody Awards?
You have to know that although today's award is also sponsored by Hong Kong's Star Media, there is no fig leaf to deceive industry insiders and audiences this time.

While the two were talking, the host on the stage announced the 16 songs for the "Excellent Song Award". Among them, the two classic songs that caught Zhang Chen's attention were "White Birch Tree" by Pu Shu and "Loyalty to the Country" by Tu Honggang.

The moment he saw Pu Shu, Zhang Chen remembered that Zhang Yadong had proposed to him whether he should sign this newcomer.

Zhang Chen’s opinion at the time was that it was possible but not necessary.

This person is famous for his Buddhist attitude. He only goes out to do business when he has no money to spend.

To sum up, this is a musical talent who is clear-headed and not bound by worldly constraints.

But there is no need for Zhang Chen, an artist employee who cannot even be controlled by his agent, to try to please others.

Perhaps the two of them could exchange a few words about music, but it would be better for them to just be superiors and subordinates, as he was afraid that his life would not last long enough.

"The next award to be presented is the 'Chinese Music Chart '99' Song Award'." As Zhang Chen's thoughts gradually drifted away, the host on the stage finally began to present the awards for the Song of the Year.
