On the afternoon of April 12, I believe that the music official announced the resumption of the Mayday concert.
Mayday's last concert tour ended on December 7 in Paris, and after more than four months of silence, the resumption of the performance was very careful in terms of form, content, and official announcements. For example, the official announcement time was chosen at 17:20, which happened to be "520".
And it is obvious that there is a factor that intends to save word of mouth, and the official announcement of the "Hug Concert" Quanzhou Station will adopt the form of "no deduction of cost and full donation".
It took a lot of courage and sacrifice to make this decision.
I believe that the music will give a very detailed explanation in the official announcement copy, this concert will sell 9274 tickets, all the total revenue from ticket sales, will not deduct any cost, free full donation, the donation object is the Charity Federation, the money is used to fund students in difficulty, the renovation and upgrading of old school buildings, the purchase of teaching facilities and equipment, etc., covering as many as four towns and two townships, which can be said to be quite strong.
According to the pricing of previous concerts, even if the average price of each ticket is 600 yuan, the income of this concert is more than 5.56 million, which is indeed a large amount, plus Mayday's donation of 1 million, then the total amount of donations will exceed 6.5 million.
If tickets are income, then Mayday has to bear other expenses in addition to donating 1 million. I believe that the music emphasized in the official announcement that this donation will not deduct any costs, and the basic expenses are indispensable for holding a concert, such as venue rental, stage construction costs, transportation expenses for singers and bands, as well as various expenses incurred in the administrative and ticketing links, etc., not to mention other purposes, Mayday can pay out of his own pocket to do such a public welfare concert, which is really worthy of a big praise from everyone! Looking at the entire Pop Moon Temple, except for Mayday, there is no other singer or band who can do a public welfare performance so completely regardless of the cost, personal donations.
Moreover, in addition to Mayday singing by themselves, they also brought in Su Huilun, Ding Dang, and Jiajia three co-acting ambassadors, since the tickets were donated in full, the three guests must not receive a penny, and they can be regarded as contributing to the public welfare, and they also praised the three of them.
But the problem cannot be evaded.
As mentioned earlier, everyone wants to make money, and I believe that music is the same as Mayday, and doing charity performances has a great side, but it also inevitably makes people feel that there are intentions, especially when it comes to the lip-to-play turmoil more than four months ago.
To put it simply, during the Mayday tour, some music bloggers use professional software to import the audio track "Real Hammer" Mayday lip-to-sing, and the 17-minute video is screen recording + commentary, and you will find that the performance level of different tracks is quite different, specific to the details, some songs are judged by the blogger to be true singing, because the pitch is very large when singing, but in the track that is judged to be falset-singing, it plays quite perfectly. Probably such judgments, and there will be some more exaggerated actions at the concert, such as swinging the body vigorously, turning the head, and the mouth is farther and closer to the microphone, but the voice is still very stable, etc., all of which make people wonder if they are lip-syncing?
According to the law, for-profit performances such as concerts must be sung, and the galas represented by the Spring Festival Gala are allowed to lip-sync and other performances because they are not for-profit performances and do not charge audience fees.
As public opinion grows louder and louder, law enforcement agencies intervene and say they will launch an investigation, unfortunately, as of press time, Mayday has officially announced a new concert, but law enforcement has not yet given a conclusion.
Because the controversy over whether to sing falset-witted or not has always been unresolved, even if it is a public welfare performance with full income donation, it still attracts a lot of controversy, and public opinion is quite polarized.
A large number of fans support their idols, and they are happy to say that there will be many more in the future. The netizens who opposed it secretly mentioned the inconclusive investigation, believing that this public welfare performance was actually paving the way for the follow-up to continue to "make money", and scoffed at this practice.
In the end, stick to the same point. It is impossible to conclude that Mayday is a lip-synching until law enforcement has come to a conclusion, and of course, the evaluation of the level of their live performance is another matter. As for this performance, it is completely public welfare, and he also donated money out of his own pocket, this behavior is worthy of praise and encouragement, I hope more singers can follow up in the future!
