Chapter 130 Spring Festival Gala Bombing Site
After arriving in the capital, Gu Wei returned home to rest for a while, and then came to the company.
Although it is the first day of the Lunar New Year, Gu Wei's personal management team has no time to rest. As long as Gu Wei is working, they will serve him 24 hours a day.
"Mr. Gu, there is news from Universal Music that they have completed the production of your two-song EP and will be released globally on the 10th of this month. There will be a small press conference then. You have to Go and take part.”
After arriving at the company, the agent gave him good news.
This was not a big surprise for Gu Wei.
At this time in 2014, the Chinese music scene has basically entered the digital music era. It is a dream for singers to make money by releasing records like they did 10 years ago.
The routine of domestic singers is to release new songs and let fans listen to them for free. When the songs become popular and they become famous, they will hold concerts, accept commercial performances, and participate in variety shows to make money.
The most typical one is Xue Zhi. After a few songs became popular, he continued to appear in variety shows, served as a judge, and wrote jokes. In the end, those who didn't know thought he was a variety show star.
Gu Wei wrote the song solely to promote the movie "Tang Detective". Later, he thought that it would be copied anyway, so he also wrote a few foreign songs that he had heard in his memory.
In this domestic environment, with the quality of these two songs, I believe they will eventually become popular if they are posted online.
But this would be a waste of resources, so Gu Wei signed a contract with Universal Music Group, and with the help of their global promotion channels and record distribution channels, Gu Wei believed that based on the quality of his songs, he could still sell some dollars. .
Although physical records cannot be sold in China, they can still be sold in North America.
Of course you have to have a good partner, a music company as big as Universal to help you.
After noon, Gu Wei and his party arrived at the Beijing TV station to start preparing for the evening performance.
This is the first time Gu Wei has participated in a large-scale party performance.
The backstage of the Beijing TV station studio hall is crowded at the moment. There are many kinds of dancers in the hall. Some of them sing and dance for singers, some specialize in performing dance programs, and some perform operas.
Because there were too many people, everyone was resting and putting on makeup in the lobby.
After Gu Wei arrived, special staff from the TV station led him to a dressing room.
This is a dressing room for two people. Before Gu Wei came in, there was already a celebrity doing makeup in it.
Although they didn't know each other, Gu Wei recognized who they were as soon as they walked in the door.
"Hello, Teacher Tengger, I am Gu Wei, I am very happy to see you here."
Gu Wei opened the door and came in, and Tengger also saw it inside. he.
So Gu Wei walked forward in three or two steps and took the initiative to extend his hand to say hello.
Gu Wei turned out to be very fond of his [Wings of Steel]. He felt that no matter how gentle Mr. Tengger sang, he still had the feeling of a prairie man riding a horse to recognize him.
This kind of singing skills and distinctive style are also unique among singers.
Seeing this, Teacher Tengger quickly stood up and shook hands with Gu Wei.
"Hello, you are"
He was a little unsure, and the staff on the side quickly whispered "Gu Wei~"
"Ah, Gu Wei, I'm sorry , I am getting old and my memory is not very good.”
Tengger smiled sheepishly.
Gu Wei didn't care. His popularity was still too short, and it was entirely because of the movie.
But if you haven’t watched [Tang Detective], it’s normal to not know him.
He has released several popular songs, but it is normal for popular songs not to be popular. Besides, many people don’t care who the singer is when they hear a good song, even if they know the singer’s identity. I don’t even know what the singer looks like by name.
Besides, for an elderly person like Tengger, it is perfectly normal for him not to know Gu Wei.
The two exchanged pleasantries, and Gu Wei also sat down to put on makeup.
Tenger was also curious about Gu Wei, a young man who shared a dressing room with him.
"Gu Wei, what will you perform on stage later?"
"Like you, I also sing, one of my own songs [Lonely Brave Man]."
Hearing this, Tengger was surprised.
"It turns out that you are the singer who sang [Lonely Warrior]. I said your name sounds so familiar to me.
This song is so popular now. I have listened to it many times. It is so classic. ”
I didn’t recognize him when I saw him, but when he heard Gu Wei talking about singing, Tengger immediately reacted.
"You're flattered~" Gu Wei said modestly.
After learning that Gu Wei was the singer of [Lonely Brave Man], Tengger immediately became enthusiastic and pulled Gu Wei to chat about music.
Gu Wei did not dampen the old man's interest and cooperated with him in chatting.
In today's party, Gu Wei was arranged to play in the middle part.
In front of him is Yao Beina performing the song [Heartfire].
At this time, Yao Beina was still in good health and was in good condition when singing.
She was diagnosed with breast cancer when she was 11 years old and had surgery, which was quite successful.
It's a pity that human power can't defy heaven, and God finally chose to take her away at her most beautiful age.
While waiting, Gu Wei walked specifically to Yao Beina.
"Hello, it's Yao Bei. I'm Gu Wei." He stretched out his hand and greeted politely.
"Hello, Gu Wei, I like your movies very much." Yao Beina was also surprised to see the handsome guy Gu Wei come over to say hello to her.
Unlike Tengger, she recognized Gu Wei, the most popular movie star during this period, at a glance.
"I heard Sister Yifei mentioned you and said that you are very good friends. If you don't mind, I'll call you that sister." Yao Bei was born in 1981, a full 11 years older than Gu Wei.
"Gu Wei, you are so polite. I didn't expect Yifei to mention me to you. We are indeed very good friends."
Gu Wei, who is so famous, still treats her Yao Beina was a little overwhelmed by being so polite, but he could feel Gu Wei's kindness, not to mention that it seemed that Gu Wei had a close relationship with her good friend Liu Yifei. The two chatted for a while, and Gu Wei suddenly said.
"Sister, do you feel any discomfort today?"
Hearing Gu Wei suddenly say this, Yao Beina felt very strange.
"There is nothing uncomfortable, why do you ask?"
Gu Wei frowned and looked at her face and said.
“I always feel that you don’t look good, and I don’t know if it’s my imagination.
After the party, if you have time, I’d better go to the hospital for a checkup. After all, are you prepared? .”
Seeing Gu Wei looking at him like this, Yao Beina became a little suspicious.
Although she didn't feel any discomfort, Gu Wei had good intentions after all.
"Okay, I will go for a physical examination when I have time to check it out."
Hearing what she said, a smile appeared on Gu Wei's face.
Ning has done everything he has to do, and the rest is up to God.
Soon, it was Yao Beina's turn to play.
Her singing ability is very good, and her song "Heartfire" heated up the whole party.
Gu Wei followed her on the stage.
The stage lights were all dimmed and the whole place was silent.
The prelude of [Lonely Warrior] slowly sounded.
Gu Wei's clear and magnetic voice floated from an unknown place.
“They are all brave
The wound on your forehead, your differences, your mistakes
Don’t hide them
Your worn-out doll, your mask Your Self
”
A light shined in the middle of the stage, and Gu Wei slowly rose from the bottom of the stage, from head to body, appearing little by little with the singing.
He was wearing a black suit, There is a white shirt underneath.
But the collar of the shirt is open, and the whole outfit has a messy and handsome look.
The stage is still dark, except for Gu in the light. Wei.
There were no backup dancers, but the MV started playing on the big screen behind me.
It was produced by a TV station, and the theme is exactly the same as Gu Wei’s original MV. In it are some ordinary people, but they are engaged in extraordinary careers.
Doctors, teachers, cleaners, traffic police, firefighters, forest firefighters, border guards and so on.
The TV station’s MV production level is much higher than the original version.
“They say bring light to tame every monster
They say you have to stitch up your wounds. No one loves a clown
Why being alone is not glorious
Only imperfections are worthy of praise
Who said someone covered in mud is not a hero?
”
As the MV played, Gu Wei gradually sang to the climax, and the emotions of the audience were also aroused.
Some people’s eyes slowly turned red while watching the big screen and listening to the song.
Some people, regardless of their status, sang loudly along with Gu Wei.
“.
Go? Go! With the humblest dream
Fight? Fight! With the most arrogant dream
To the sobs and roars in the dark night
Who said that only those who stand in the light are heroes?"
At the end of the song, everyone at the scene They all sang along, and some of them raised their arms and swayed to the rhythm.
It was as if this was not a Spring Festival Gala, but Gu Wei's solo concert.
After the song ended, Gu Wei bowed to the audience and left silently.
Everyone was still immersed in the emotions of the song just now and could not come back to their senses.
The host had no choice but to go on stage, say a few words and then announce the next program.
The song [WeAreYoung] brought by Hua Chenyu.
At this time, Hua Chenyu was not yet one of the "four new kings of Chinese music", nor was he recognized by his own A man who fans call "the eternal god of the Chinese music scene".
He was just a little singer who made his debut as a "Happy Boy" and became popular.
The singer was still singing in English. It was really difficult for him to take over Gu Wei's place.
After he came on stage, he was very excited, jumping up and down, and hitting the high notes from time to time. However, the audience in the audience looked blank and showed no expression.
He sang on the stage by himself, like a clown.
It is estimated that from this time on, he will never sing on the same stage as Gu Wei again, which has already created a psychological shadow.
After coming off the stage, Gu Wei said hello to the staff of the TV station, said goodbye to Teacher Tengger and Yao Beina respectively, and left the Beijing TV station with his assistant and others.
Gu Wei’s participation in the Beijing TV Spring Festival Gala was very rewarding. He met two friends in the singing industry, Tengger and Yao Beina, both of whom are capable singers.
I also met Lin Zhiying, the star I liked very much when I was a child.
Although I didn’t get to know him personally, it was still a great feeling to see my childhood idol up close.
Lin Zhiying sang a song "Seventeen-year-old Rainy Season" at the party, which made Gu Wei feel like he was dreaming back to his childhood.
No way, he was still a little kid when this song was released.
This year Lin Zhiying has just become popular in the Mainland through the variety show "Where Are We Going, Dad". At this time, he is still the ageless male god. Although he likes racing, he has never been in an accident, which does not affect him. His handsome face.
When Gu Wei was a child, he saw Lin Zhiying, Shi Xiaolong, and Hao Shaowen in "Tornado Boy" and thought he was too handsome. It was hard to understand that Vivian Hsu in the movie didn't like him at first, but liked the villain male lead. Could it be? Are you blind?
