Chapter 238: The November Awards Ceremony

The Golden Melody Awards, one of the two major music awards in Huaxia, with the other equally renowned award being the Hua Ge Award, is usually held after the Spring Festival.

The Golden Melody Awards, held at the end of November every year, can be called a grand event in the music industry.

Singers who have achieved a little success this year all look forward to this day, hoping to snag something at the awards ceremony; even if it is just a nomination, that is still supreme glory.

The prestige of the Golden Melody Awards is high enough that even its nominations are more convincing than those of those bush-league awards.

Therefore, as long as a Singer receives a nomination, even if they do not win an award in the end, their career path for the coming year will definitely be smoother.

This year, due to the sudden emergence of the musical genius Luo Mo, the attention received by the Golden Melody Awards far exceeds that of previous years.

The music scene in recent years has had a sense of being a pool of Dead Water; it has been a long time since such a terrifying Newcomer appeared.

After being held year after year, those who receive nominations and awards are all the same old faces, and everyone is tired of seeing them.

Most importantly, on Luo Mo's personal resume, the awards section is currently a blank slate.

Even the title of King of Love Songs is of a variety show nature.

Then, everything becomes even more interesting, doesn't it?

What's more... Luo Mo has quite a few old enemies.

In such an awards ceremony, there are only two main attractions.

One is enemies meeting face-to-face for an online PK.

The other is those who have dated or had rumors spread about them, ex-girlfriends and ex-boyfriends gathering online.

Given the status of Zhao Xueqin and Chun Xiao, they will definitely be at the venue.

Huang Xishan, who has already entered retirement mode, and Yuan Hewen, who is still thinking about making a comeback and stirring up trouble, will likely receive invitations as well.

Who knows, everyone might even get a nomination for the same award!

Since last night, netizens have already been making all kinds of guesses on the internet.

There is no suspense for this year's Best Newcomer Award.

This award belongs to none other than Luo Mo.

If he doesn't win it, then those who won this award in previous years will probably be dragged out for comparison, and the organizers will also be criticized.

The key now is whether he will only win Best Newcomer?

Netizens are having a heated discussion.

"Luo Mo is the Founder of Chinese Style, shouldn't they at least give him either the Best Composer Award or the Best Lyricist Award?"

"Yeah, I also feel like he should at least take one of these two awards!"

"I'll bet 200 yuan, I'm betting on Best Composer! Luo Mo's Pre-chorus Kill is too insane!"

"My head is still full of the preludes to songs like 'Sunny Day', 'Qi Li Xiang', and 'Nocturne', so I also think he should win!"

"Am I the only one who thinks the Best Album Award is also a possibility? Is there any album this year whose data and influence can beat 'Red'?"

"That's right, it's named 'Red', and it turned out to be the most popular one this year!"

"Then I have big ambitions; I think he should go all the way and win Best Male Singer directly!"

"Does the person above not understand the rules? No one wins Best Male Singer right after their debut. This isn't something you can win just because you killed it this year; you also have to look at Seniority."

At first, it was just netizens discussing it, so the problem wasn't that big.

But how could music critics, marketing accounts, and the media possibly hold back?

After these three forces entered the fray, the rhythm was set immediately.

Various prediction posts were pushed to the top, and many of these posts had tens of thousands of replies.

Among them, the well-known music critic Leshen Dama sparked a craze this afternoon.

Leshen Dama is a famously die-hard fan of Luo Mo, and this sharp-tongued woman never bashes Luo Mo.

There is a rumor in the scene that this woman, who refuses to show her face no matter what, is actually a great beauty.

Although her name contains the word 'Dama' (middle-aged woman), she is actually as beautiful as some minor celebrities.

Most importantly, like many music critics, she has posted those videos where she doesn't show her face.

She just puts a pattern over her face or uses some special effects, and then records her voice.

Her voice is very pleasant and is hailed as a treat for voice-fetishists, which has led everyone to look forward to her showing her face even more.

Most importantly, although her face is covered in every one of her videos, there is... no covering on her legs!

These legs, tsk tsk tsk.

This afternoon, Leshen Dama directly posted on Weibo, or rather, set a flag, openly planting a marker on Weibo.

"If Luo Mo wins Best Male Singer, I will wear a cheongsam, show my face, and record a congratulatory message!"

Normally, this kind of thing is just said for fun and wouldn't explode across the entire internet.

Leshen Dama is indeed very popular in the circle of music critics, but looking at the whole internet, her popularity is limited.

However, the base of 'Mo Sheng Ren' is huge!

And Leshen Dama is essentially a member of the 'Mo Sheng Ren' as well.

This led the Mo Sheng Ren to find their organization.

"I was just worrying about where to leave a comment to set a flag; should we all just set them under her Weibo post?"

Not long after, the number of comments on her Weibo post exceeded 100,000.

Once the popularity was high, it was pushed to the Weibo Hot Search, and also to the top of the 'Recommended' list.

Then, netizens clicked on it and were amused.

"What are these silly comments?"

"Can Luo Mo's fans stop going down this path of silliness?"

"Speaking of which, your big star does serious things all day long, so why do you fans only know how to do the opposite?"

The flags set by the 'Mo Sheng Ren' under this Weibo post were truly too bizarre.

"If the album 'Red' can win the 【Best Album Award】, I, your grandfather, will streak in the dormitory hallway tonight!"

"If Luo Mo wins 【Best Male Singer】, I'll drink beer while doing a handstand!"

"What kind of stuff are you all doing? If Luo Mo wins 【Best Male Singer】, everyone present will call me 'Daddy' once! Let's play big if we're going to play!"

"Laughing to death, then I'll solve 500 advanced mathematics problems online!"

"This little girl can't afford to lose; if Luo Mo wins 【Best Composer】, I'll post maid photos, one in black silk stockings and one in white."

"Then I'll post a cosplay one; pick a type of cosplay in the comments."

"Bunny ears and black silk stockings are already prepared."

"Then I'll confess to the roommate I've liked for a long time!"

"If Luo Mo wins Best Male Singer, I'll quit my job!"

"Then I have nothing else; I'll shave my hair, shave my whole body."

Netizens looked at the comments one by one, while cursing in their mouths, "What kind of silly stuff is this!"

Then, their hands uncontrollably began to type, joining this Evil organization.

The replies under these comments also made people feel very interesting.

Many netizens shouted: "Chinese people don't deceive Chinese people!"

If you say it, you have to do it!

Some people also expressed: "There are always some people who, under the guise of setting a flag, quietly do the things they like."

This kind of reply usually appears under comments like shaving hair, calling someone Daddy, streaking, or agreeing to let my wife cheat on me.

This trend became so noisy later on that even the official Weibo of Luo Mo Studio couldn't help it for a moment and personally joined in to comment.

"As long as the boss wins more than two awards today, all staff will work for him for one day for free."

Immediately, silly Luo Mo fans underneath saw through the essence and said: "Is your boss going to give out big red envelopes?"

It looks like working overtime for the boss for free, but in reality, they are tearfully accepting big red envelopes that exceed their wages.

At this moment, Luo Mo is sitting in the back seat of a car, heading to the 【Golden Melody Awards】 ceremony site.

He is holding his phone and scrolling through the news on major social platforms, watching it all in a daze.

"Is the life pressure of modern people really this high?" he couldn't help but mutter.

And he knows very well that these comments are still considered normal, because those flags with too much scale might have already been harmonized.

There must definitely be a group of people who have said many things with even larger scales!

But these cannot bring any pressure to Luo Mo; his mindset is quite good.

"Anyway, the awards have already been judged; today is just the announcement and presentation, so it's impossible to change anything at all, just let nature take its course," he thought in his heart.

He actually really wants to satisfy everyone's quirks and help every dream.

"It can only depend on the actual situation tonight," Luo Mo put down his phone and thought in his heart.

No matter what the outcome is, he feels that he still has to post a Weibo at that time, or add a few sentences directly in his acceptance speech, urging everyone not to disturb the public, not to interfere with others, and not to do things that are too excessive or cross the line.

You can amuse yourself, but don't use this to drive an unhealthy trend.

……..

……..

At the backstage of the 【Golden Melody Awards】, a portion of the guests have already gathered.

The red carpet segment hasn't arrived yet, but the appearance order has already been arranged.

In this era that likes to fight for the C-Position, tear apart billing, and compete for prestige, the appearance order has become exceptionally important.

Luo Mo has shallow Seniority, so he certainly won't be set to appear in the last few, but his appearance order is also relatively late.

Backstage, many Singers are standing in groups of three or five, chatting there.

As soon as Luo Mo walked in, he attracted everyone's gaze.

After all, he is not only a Top Traffic, but also a genius of lyrics and music, a song producer, and the Music Director of Xinyu.

To anyone who greeted him, Luo Mo nodded and responded very politely.

When encountering some highly respected seniors, he would also take the initiative to step forward and shake hands.

Finally, he converged with the people from his own studio and the Singers from Xinyu.

Tong Shu and Sun Yi both arrived quite early, and Tao Jie was also invited to come.

Even the Aurora Girls were invited to the 【Golden Melody Awards】 site, presumably because they could receive a 【Best Group Award】 Nomination.

It's just that as for who the award would go to, it had actually been decided many days ago; at that time, "Miss Chic" and "Chinese Language" had not yet been released, otherwise, the Aurora Girls would definitely have won this award this year.

After all, the Idol groups in China... are really a bit disappointing.

Luo Mo glanced at everyone and only felt that the six long legs of the Aurora Girls were truly too conspicuous in the crowd.

It's just that in the past, when they came to such events, they were always very reserved and uncomfortable; after all, the status of girl groups is low, they are at the bottom of the contempt chain, and their own works are not powerful, making people unable to hold their heads high, feeling that they are not worthy of coming to such occasions.

But today, each of them feels that they have been reborn.

At least, we also have enough representative works that have gone viral to rely on!

Not far away, in a small Corner, the forgotten group NINE-T is huddling together for warmth.

Over there, Luo Mo is in a crisp suit, the whole person looking high-spirited and vigorous.

A group of people surrounds him, laughing and talking.

The other Singers also can't help but look towards his side, casting their gazes at him; he is clearly the focal point here.

Looking at them again, they are completely small and transparent, becoming the most ignored existence here.

Don't look at the fact that they still have a certain amount of traffic; Pineapple is completely sucking their blood, taking advantage of the fact that they haven't completely faded yet to crazily suck blood and make money, completely ignoring their future development.

And because the level of their contract is not high, it leads to them being scolded by others, saying they are relying on traffic to make a huge profit, while at the same time, they can't get much money in their bank accounts...

But look at Luo Mo; not only does he have his own personal studio, but he also holds shares in Xinyu and has become the Music Director of Xinyu, commanding the music-related affairs of such a large, first-class company.

Even Zhao Xueqin, the top singer of your Pineapple in the music industry, is nothing but someone defeated by me.

In just a few short months, everyone went from being on the same starting line to having a difference as vast as clouds and mud.

Shen Mingliu and the others had once wondered at the beginning, if Luo Mo had debuted in the group with them, would everything have been different?

But the further they went, the more they recognized the reality.

"Are we even worthy of being his teammates?"

The person they envy most now is no longer Luo Mo, because he is now God Luo, far too high and mighty.

What they envy is Tong Shu.

It is that person who followed behind Luo Mo's backside from the very beginning, the one they mocked as a Xiwanshaodi.

But, we aren't prophets; who could have imagined that the bowls Tong Shu washed were, damn it, a golden rice bowl!

Given Tong Shu's popularity in the music scene this year, to put it bluntly, he could crush the vast majority of people in this hall.

At this moment, Shen Yinuo looked at Luo Mo and said, "Luo Mo, did you see those people on the internet making bets? Hahahaha, I've been laughing to death the whole way here."

Luo Mo nodded and said, "I saw them, it's really ridiculous."

Shen Yinuo immediately pressed, "Then how many awards do you think you can win today?"

Her words immediately piqued the curiosity of everyone around.

Although everyone was on the same side, Director Luo had never mentioned his own expectations.

"I don't have many thoughts on it, I'll just see how the Golden Melody Awards arranges it," Luo Mo said, spreading his hands indifferently.

At this moment, the main door was opened once again.

Wearing a black evening gown, stepping in black high heels, with her slightly curly long hair draped over her shoulders, Xu Chujing entered the backstage hall with the posture of a queen.

Everyone's gaze instantly converged on her, and the word "stunning" was revealed in everyone's eyes.

This woman is impeccable, whether it be her figure, appearance, or temperament.

Not to mention that she also possesses a supreme status within the music industry!

"Jing."

"Jing."

As Xu Chujing walked along, many singers greeted her.

Only some old veterans could make Xu Chujing stop her steps and take the initiative to exchange pleasantries.

She walked and stopped like this, walked and stopped, and finally, she walked to Luo Mo's side and stood still.

Once she stood there, let alone the Aurora Girls, even Chen Shanqi, who is now a First-line Singer, became significantly more reserved in an instant.

In the hearts of many female singers, Xu Chujing is a god-like existence.

Only Jiang Ningxi, who clearly used to view Xu Chujing as her Idol, felt somewhat complicated now seeing her standing together with Luo Mo.

"My Idol and my ex-boyfriend seem to have something going on"?

Only Luo Mo said to her with a relaxed expression, "You're here?"

Xu Chujing gave a soft hum, then whispered to Luo Mo, "The Golden Melody Awards invited me to be a presenter today, letting me choose one from the three awards: Best Male Singer, Best Female Singer, and Best Album."

"Which one did you choose?" Luo Mo asked with a smile.

"I chose the final award to be presented, the 【Best Album】," Xu Chujing gave him a meaningful look.

Luo Mo nodded, then suddenly turned his head to say to Shen Yinuo, "Xiao Shen, I'm not indifferent anymore."
