Chapter 418: Spring Festival Gala Program Arrangement

"Next, is the last award of this CCTV Music Festival—Annual Best Musician!" The host's enthusiastic voice made everyone feel relieved.

Among them, Luo Quan was included.

At this time, she had already taken off the woolen coat she was wearing outside, and a few crystal sweat beads gathered on the tip of her nose.

She couldn't remember how many times she had run, only knowing that now every member of Girls' Generation was holding a trophy in their hands, and several of them had more than one trophy.

"Please invite our Luo Quan to the stage to receive the award!" The host called her name again. The number of times this name was repeated tonight had made everyone a bit aesthetically fatigued.

Fortunately, this was the last award.

Luo Quan walked onto the stage, held the trophy in her hand, and all the prepared acceptance speeches had been said. After pondering for a moment, she said: "Thanks to everyone who supports me. I hope that when the next festival is held, I will no longer be the one receiving the award. Winter is about to pass, and I hope that Chinese music can usher in a spring of blooming flowers!"

The audience applauded thunderously. For nothing else, just for these words of Luo Quan, it is worth sending applause.

This acceptance speech is humble, but also full of enthusiastic expectations for Chinese musicians and beautiful blessings for the Chinese music scene.

The era is always developing. The entertainment industry has already changed, and a large number of fresh blood has poured in. No matter what the result is in the future, the reform has already arrived.

I just hope that the reform belonging to the Chinese music scene can arrive as soon as possible.

No matter what, Luo Quan's title as the leader of the Chinese music scene can be said to be well-deserved tonight.

Regardless of whether those old predecessors agree or acknowledge it, she is now the well-deserved leader of the Chinese music scene.

The CCTV Music Festival ended successfully, and our leader led the girls of Girls' Generation, just about to take the trophy and return home.

Halfway through, she was called back by an employee of the TV station.

Because she was too happy, Luo Quan forgot that there was another purpose for coming to the CCTV building this time, which was to set the program for this Spring Festival Gala.

The one discussing with them was one of the planners of this year's Spring Festival Gala, and the plan given was to let Luo Quan and Girls' Generation perform a song and dance together this time.

The Korean-style explosive dance definitely wouldn't work, and those songs in Girls' Generation's album basically couldn't be used either.

After some discussion, the song finally decided to be sung was "Blue and White Porcelain."

National style song, in line with the theme of the Spring Festival Gala, beautiful lyrics, pleasant melody, can be said to be suitable for all ages.

As for the dance, there is no need to be too serious, because it is not a special dance performance, it can be edited slightly simpler, mainly to put some effort into the clothing, makeup, and props.

Regarding the arrangement of the Spring Festival Gala planner, Luo Quan and Wen Xia still put forward some opinions, such as the clothing and handheld props during the performance, but the theme was still determined by the planner.

No matter what, the program was determined. After the dance was edited, they could start rehearsing, basically three or four days of work.

Luo Quan came to Beijing this time, and it is estimated that she will have to wait until after the Spring Festival Gala to return to Shanghai.

But it doesn't matter. At that time, she can call Ai Wei, Su Yu, and the others to Beijing to spend the New Year together.

After returning to the room, Luo Quan opened Bilibili at the first opportunity, wanting to see how everyone was blowing her.

Among the ten empty seats on the Bilibili hot search list, three were her names, and the most conspicuous one was "Luo Quan swept the top ten awards of the CCTV Music Festival!"

Clicking in to see the comments inside, it was really laughing to death:

"The guests at the scene must be very confused. Is this really not a festival held for her alone?"

"Luo Quan, with her own strength, made all members of Girls' Generation feel like they returned with a full load."

"The singers nominated this time are too miserable. They met a big demon king who only appears once in decades."

"Tell a ghost story, this big demon king just debuted, I don't know how many years she will be suppressed in the future."

"Cao Mufeng is too miserable. Except for the prefix of male singers, all other nominated awards were taken by Luo Quan, which can be called the best companion runner."

"Cao Mufeng: My life is up to me, not Luo Quan!"

"Hahaha, they are all talents."

………………

Bilibili netizens have never disappointed people in making things, and accidentally made a stalk again.

My life is up to me, not Luo Quan!

This sentence seems to be used for many people's lifelong enemies in the future.

Luo Quan won the award comfortably this time, but because she had to attend this music festival, the release of the new album was postponed for a day.

The two English songs originally scheduled were also released at noon the next day.

First out was "Can't Take My Eyes Off You."

As if to carry the retro to the end, the style of this song can remind people of American music in the 1960s and 1970s, full of age.

The lyrics are catchy, the melody is as good as ever, and it also carries a bit of jazz style, which is what American fans are most surprised by.

This kind of music style is actually not common on the Billboard chart, and there are very few young people who like it, but for those who are older, it has an extraordinary charm.

The excellence of the song itself is skipped for now. Just as the accompaniment sounds, an indescribable sentiment comes to the face.

Of course, for younger fans, this song is good, but the style is still a bit old.

But soon, Luo Quan conquered everyone with the third song, including domestic audiences.

The last English song of the "Beauty" album, "You are beautiful," was released.

Listening to the accompaniment, it has the momentum of a symphony orchestra playing classical music, and Luo Quan's voice is not a common pop singing style. According to the music critic who finished listening to this song:

"Luo Quan's singing voice is like a glass of mellow red wine, from which I have realized the sweetness of time. The prosperous scenery is fleeting, only this taste, like her stunning appearance, is eternal in my heart."

Cultural people's comments are different. Every sentence is so full of poetry.

Unlike those fans on Twitter, it's either WTF, or Holyshit, or OMG.

However, apart from these slightly poor adjectives, ordinary people really can't think of any good words to describe this song that is better than imagination.

Putting aside the melody, just talking about the lyrics of this song, it already makes people feel that it is better than countless:

Recalling the dance of the universe, the stage shines

The angel face of the generation

Indulgent swaying in the summer of the day

You appear in gorgeous clothes and sing only for me

Exquisite appearance, soul is uninhibited and arrogant

You look back with heavy makeup, I can't forget it at a glance

When my years are gone and my face is old

Do you love me as before

Until the end of time?

When I have nothing and am covered in bruises

Do you love me as before

Until the end of time?

I know you will, I know you will

I know your love is long and lasting

Whether it is English or Chinese translation, the lyrics of this song have been beautiful to the point of being like poetry.

In the song, Luo Quan's lazy and long voice expresses the true meaning of this poem to the extreme.

And many people also feel that the things in this song have not been expressed at all. Fans asked on Twitter:

"I heard a prosperous era in this song. Although the lyrics are very warm, I always feel a sadness."

"This is not just a song. Behind it, there must be a story, a story that shocks the heart."

"This matter can only be solved by Luo Quan herself."

"The production of this song is too beautiful. I play it with a vinyl record, as if a symphony orchestra is playing in my ear!"

………………

As those fans guessed, there is indeed a story behind this song.

Or rather, this song was written for that story.

However, it is not the time to take this story out for the time being. We have to wait for Gao Liang to be fatter and more mature before talking about it.

Young he has not felt the sinister nature of this world. Although "Titanic" will become a masterpiece that shocks the world, it is estimated that he will not have a big harvest in terms of awards like this movie.

These academic schools that award Oscars have prejudices against handsome men and beautiful women. Not only Gao Liang, Luo Quan feels that it is also very difficult for her to win an award by acting.

Unless, like countless predecessors, she destroys her image and performs subversively.

After all, in this world, special cases like Audrey Hepburn are too few. Moreover, female stars of that era were generally not as harsh as they are now when winning awards.

Returning to the song, Luo Quan's three English songs this time can be considered as trying three different styles.

Conventional pop, retro jazz, and deep classical pop.

Once again proved the fact that Luo Quan can easily control various styles.

At the same time, Chinese fans also began to look forward to what kind of songs she could bring out this time.

If it were a normal Chinese album, Luo Quan would definitely choose songs conventionally, and the higher the spread, the higher the priority.

However, considering that this album now has a certain degree of attention worldwide, out of the idea of promoting Chinese culture, Luo Quan decided to add a song with Chinese elements to it.

Besides that, she also had to reflect her personal characteristics.

After many considerations, Luo Quan made a decision.

At noon the day after the English songs were released, she recorded and released the second Chinese song.

"The new song 'Dream of the Ages' is online on all platforms. I hope everyone will like it."

(Recommend searching for "Dream of the Ages" on Bilibili, the one from Wangchuan Feng Hualu, the effect is better with animation.)

This is a song that no one could have thought of. The singing at the beginning, if you don't look at the lyrics, 99% don't know what is being sung.

Fortunately, Luo Quan very thoughtfully provided phonetic notation and notes for these lyrics, and pointed out that this is the pronunciation of Middle Chinese.

After the song was released, it first caused a lot of discussion in China.

The first controversy was this Middle Chinese. It sounds like Minnan dialect, and a bit like Cantonese. Northerners almost cannot distinguish it.

Many people questioned, is this really not Luo Quan pretending to be mysterious and talking nonsense?

But soon fans refuted:

"Luo Quan studies linguistics, would she talk nonsense?"

"Luo Quan never talks nonsense in fields she doesn't know."

"I asked my mentor, it is indeed Middle Chinese, and it is very standard."

"Awesome, Luo Quan can also speak Middle Chinese?"

"The song is really good, and this song is sung about the female emperor, right?"

"So domineering, Empress Luo's prestige is becoming more and more stable, really can attack and can tease."

"It's 'Imperial Consort' and then the female emperor. Why, do you want to restore the monarchy?"

"How to say, Luo Quan is nominally the current owner of the Imperial Jade Seal. Although she donated it, she donated it to the museum in her own name, and the museum is not anyone's private property, so this jade seal is actually still hers."

"I have no opinion on Luo Quan being the female emperor, but can you accept me as a concubine? I can even follow her surname. (Shy face)"

"I think you are ugly and think beautifully. I won't cultivate the child I have with her!"

Luo Quan also hit the mark by mistake this time. Originally, she just wanted to use this song to promote Chinese culture, and the main purpose was to let foreigners pay attention to it. Unexpectedly, the attention of domestic fans was higher than she imagined.

Of course, foreign fans also developed a strong interest after listening to this song, especially after knowing that Luo Quan was singing about the only female emperor in China, they became even more excited.

No matter where, a queen is a presence that hits XP more than a goddess.

If most Chinese boys like to cultivate immortality, most Japanese boys like to be otaku, then most European and American boys probably want to be a knight.

The story of protecting the princess, the queen, defeating the evil dragon, and embracing the beauty is what they have heard since they were young.

These can be said to be impulses imprinted in their DNA.

After the persona is established, the fan effect brought about is inestimable.

Luo Quan probably didn't expect that this album would establish such a persona for herself.

Called female emperor in China, called Queen abroad.

It sounds domineering, but she just wanted to promote Chinese culture at first.

However, planting willows unintentionally, establishing such a persona doesn't seem to be a bad thing. At least in the future, she can justifiably wear Hanfu in cosplay without exposing so much meat.

However, seeing that the new songs of the album were about to be released, foreign fans were completely satisfied, but domestic fans still felt that it was not enough.

I always feel that this album is still missing a hit, a Chinese song that can be popular in China.

Domestic fans don't have much pursuit for so-called depth, they just want a pleasant, catchy, sweet love song to relieve the auditory nerves that are a bit tired from being bombarded by so many internet celebrity hot songs.

Fans expressed their earnest demands under Luo Quan's Bilibili post, and also hoped that Luo Quan could draw a perfect end to this album.

Since the fans requested it sincerely, Luo Quan naturally followed the trend.

In the early morning, the last song of the album was released.

"'Confession Balloon' is now officially online. I hope everyone will like it and support the genuine version!"

Less than half an hour after the song came out, it directly exploded all major music, social, forum, and short video platforms in China.

Luo Quan once again told the world that even a saliva song can be written so fresh and pleasant, written so unconventional.
