Text: The heart is like a flower and a tree
"Singer 2024" is completely popular, but its fire is detached from the music itself, and it is a little more weird about the feelings of family and country.
In just a few days, the singers who participated in the competition were scolded, and the singers who refused to participate were also scolded...
On closer inspection, this is more like a well-planned patriotic hype. It is obvious that the "patriotic plot" of netizens has been used again...
01
Recently, the topic of "Singer" has repeatedly rushed to the hot search, and the popularity continues to rise.
Most of the topics have words that have nothing to do with music, such as "please fight", "Yehenara can't lose to foreigners", "The adventures of Yingzi", "hope of the whole village", etc.
In other words, the explosion of this year's "Singer" has nothing to do with music.
Let's take a look back at what has happened to "The Singer" in the last few days.
When the list of entries for "Singer 2024" was announced, it caused a lot of controversy.
Different from the previous way of "matching new and old domestic singers", two god-level foreign singers have appeared for the first time: Chante Moore and Faouzia.
These two are serious mainstream singers, who have won awards and even won Grammys.
But what about the "Chinese team"? In addition to Na Ying, who is recognized as a veteran singer, Wang Sulong, Rainie Yang, Hailai Amu, second-hand roses...
Truth be told, fame is greater than strength.
Sure enough, in front of the two foreign players, except for Na Ying, who could barely parry, everyone else was pressed to the ground and rubbed...
Then the doubts came:
"There are many good singers in domestic entertainment, so I invited a Na Ying?"
I don't know if it's the result of careful planning, but in short, after the first scene, the voices of "singing the decline of the Chinese music scene" and "resisting foreign forces" came out.
Netizens offered suggestions one after another, holding high the banner of "fighting for the country" and shouting to the singers.
It's clear that everybody's on top...
02
In the context of the collective high morale of netizens, many singers were involved.
The first to be deliberately elevated were Na Ying and Han Hong.
Na Ying, as the Chinese singer with the best performance in the whole show, was crowned by netizens with titles such as "Guarding the Country" and "The Last Face of National Entertainment".
Na Ying, who has never had a good reputation, became a "national hero" in an instant...
You know, this is just a variety show, and Na Ying also charged an appearance fee!
Han Hong is because of shouting on social media
"I'm Chinese singer Han Hong, I'm going to fight!"
The tone is heroic and very positive, and he is also regarded as a "national hero" by netizens.
You may wish to savor it, is there a feeling of bad taste?
This is not an international event, let alone a war to defend the homeland, just a folk music variety show. The focus should be on musicians communicating with each other, dedicating good music to listeners, and conducting music exchanges at home and abroad.
But the result?
If Han Hong and Na Ying still earn fame, those singers who don't participate will be miserable...
For example, Deng Ziqi, some netizens ran to Deng Ziqi's live broadcast room and asked her to participate in "Singer" to save the scene, but Deng Ziqi refused on the grounds of holding a concert.
Unexpectedly, many netizens actually played moral kidnapping and attacked Deng Ziqidao:
"To refuse is to ignore the Chinese music scene!"
In addition to Deng Ziqi, other singers were also shouted, guessed, and attacked...
Those singers who "ask for war" and "recall must return" are brave and patriotic, and those singers who don't want to participate have become "traitors and cowards in the Chinese music scene"?
Here's the problem:
Isn't this voluntary?
03
Frankly speaking, "Singer 2024" really put a lot of effort into the hardware.
More gorgeous stage, lighting, more high-end audio equipment, and full open microphone live broadcast are very testing of the singer's skills and strength.
But as a music program, it should start with music and end with music, and should not be mixed with other factors. We should not shout, fight, kill, and engage in confrontation.
There are all kinds of indications that today's outrage is a "conspiracy" set in advance. From the moment the starting lineup was revealed, this ending was doomed.
I hope everyone looks at it rationally and doesn't get used by others...
