I'm crispy.
It's been a long time since domestic entertainment has been so lively.
Last week, the music variety "I Am a Singer" made a comeback after four years.
What is brought is a live broadcast without a revised version.
The first issue showed the audience stupid.
Do you think the players are doing too well?
No, it's a shame!
I don't know if it's in order to be in line with international standards, every season of "Singer" will invite several foreign singers to sit in the lineup.
This season is no exception.
invited the American singer Shanti and the Canadian post-00s flower Fauzia.
I thought it was a friendly exchange of Chinese and foreign music, but I didn't expect these two to even lift the table for us.
Looking at several other Chinese singers competing on the same stage.
It is said that the hanging and beating are gentle, and they are not a dimensional species at all.
There is only one Na Ying left, fighting hard and striving for third.
The audience's journey is as follows:
Before seeing Shanti: Na Ying is stable.
After seeing Shanti: Na Ying is going to be desperate.
The strength of the two foreign singers is so terrifying.
As soon as Shanti opened her mouth, she turned the sky upside down, and singing the dolphin sound was as simple as my breathing.
, duration 01:30
Fauzia is young but extremely skilled, just like Zhang Wuji when he singled out the six major sects.
And how does our Chinese music scene face it?
Wang Sulong, who occupies half of Douyin's BGM, brings a new little love song.
Hailai Amu came out of nowhere, and was criticized by Ding Taisheng for singing too earthy.
The national style is not absent.
The rock band Second-hand Rose contributed a song "Monkey Trick" with Northeast characteristics.
emm…… Why is it not a point question?
After all, when the camera swept by, even Fauzia lost his expression management.
"That's it? Laugh and forget it. ”
The corners of the mouth are slightly raised, three points uninhibited, four points ridiculed.
I thought I was here to play a high-end game, but I didn't expect it to be targeted poverty alleviation.
Only Na Ying was left to fight in the audience.
Look at the hope of our whole village, Yehenara Yingzi.
Who's going to hug her, she's going to break.
Nearly sixty years old, he was forced to participate in the music scene "Metamorphosis".
Stress to insomnia.
The audience reassured her that she couldn't lose, and she blurted out: You go up and try?
"The fifty-year-old lady guards the country" has become an annual stalk.
年过半百芸挂上阵,回头身后空无一。
What else can you do, spell it out!
Yehnara is her surname, and it is her life to resist foreigners.
56 years old...... Well, it's the age of Chuang.
Jokes are jokes, and netizens also feel sorry for Yingzi.
So began an unprecedented large army of the Khan, emergency support.
Domestic, foreign, young, retired.
As long as it is a Chinese who can sing, I thought about it from beginning to end.
Han Hong, Tan Jing, Han Lei, Tengger, Lin Zhixuan......
I finally came up with a few that could be beaten, and they were all back to the pot meat that had already participated in the show.
The strength is not enough, so be clever to make it.
Netizens made crooked moves.
It is recommended to let Xiao Jingteng come, if you win, you will not lose, and if you lose, you will say that it is Xiang Zuo.
It is recommended that Shan Yichun go up, win and win glory for the country, and if he loses, he will say that he is a college student who is here to earn credits.
After taking stock of it, I found that most of it was useless.
The netizen grabbed the strong man's hand and stretched out to the paper man again.
If you take 10,000 steps back, can't An Lingrong fight for the country?
Under the noisy public opinion, the big guy was finally alarmed.
Han Hong took the lead in asking for help, and other singers followed.
Netizens burst into tears: Sure enough, where there is a disaster area, there is Teacher Han Hong, no matter what the disaster.
However, when everyone saw the list of kicking singers on the Internet, their hearts were half cold.
Tian Ji horse racing can't just pick inferior horses!
Who can get on?
has become the most difficult question to answer in the Chinese music scene in recent years.
There is a comment in one sentence: Looking at the current Chinese music scene, it is as powerless as Li Hongzhang's visit to the United States in the late Qing Dynasty.
Behind the laughter is a thick sense of helplessness.
When did the Chinese music scene fall to this?
Wang Shuo wrote in "A Sigh":
Some things were grandly opened, but it turned out to be a farce;
Some things start out as comedy and turn out to be tragedy.
It is a fitting description of the current situation of the Chinese music scene.
Once full of stars, now there are few morning stars.
We have to admit that the golden age of Chinese music has finally disappeared.

In the 6th and 70s of the last century, Polygram Records entered Hong Kong.
At that time, mainstream music was still imported.
Europe, the United States, Japan and South Korea each account for half of the country.
And the appearance of a young man broke the closed situation.
He combines Cantonese and pop music.
The melody is catchy and the lyrics are easy to understand.
Captured countless listeners.
He is Xu Guanjie.
You may not have heard his name, but you must have heard the well-known song "A Laugh in the Sea".
Before him, no one had ever thought that Cantonese songs could be sung like this.
At the same time, on the other side of the ocean with Hong Kong far away.
The fledgling Teresa Teng sang in the music world.
Gentle and moving voice, delicate and nuanced singing.
Not only did she quickly become popular all over the country, but she also led the trend of Asian music as a whole.
Whether it is Hong Kong, Taiwan or the mainland, whether it is Japan, South Korea or Southeast Asia.
Where there are Chinese, there is Teresa Teng.
It was the first time that Chinese made music with international influence.
At that time, there was always a popular saying in the Chinese music scene: men listen to Xu Guanjie, and women listen to Teresa Teng.
The two joined forces to make the dominance of English songs no longer exist.
Together, they have made a great start for the Chinese music scene.

The soil is fertile, waiting for the flowers to bloom.
After Xu Guanjie and Teresa Teng opened their careers, more and more outstanding new stars in the music world began to show their talents.
林子祥、陈百强、梅艳芳、Beyond……
In the 80s, batches of powerful musicians sprung up.
It has pushed the Chinese music scene into its first golden decade.
How brilliant?
Hong Kong has two tigers, and Taiwan has two heroes.
The so-called double tigers refer to Alan Tam and Leslie Cheung.
At that time, the dispute between Tan and Zhang could be described as vigorous.
One is the lead singer of the band in full swing, and the other is a gentle male voice blowing in the breeze.
In the most popular years of the two, awards large and small in the music world have never fallen into the hands of others.
There are countless classics left behind, which are still sung today.
At that time, even if the fans were also inextricably matched, they were far from being as life-and-death as the fan circle is now.
They sympathize with each other and use a healthy competition to push the Chinese music scene forward a big step.
And Taiwan's Shuangjie must be Li Zongsheng and Luo Dayou, who are talented in creation.
A song "Childhood" endures.
"When I crossed the hills, I found that no one was waiting", writing the sadness of countless people.
Don't blame adults for always scoffing at today's popular hits.
After all, they randomly picked out one from the song list back then, and they were all unique masterpieces.
It's a pity that legends are legends because there is always a little regret left.
Tan Zhang retired, Chen Baiqiang and Huang Jiaju died young......
Let that glorious history come to an abrupt end.
But the progress of the times never stops for anyone.
At that time, the Chinese music scene had already taken the express bus under the drive of these predecessors.
Some people fall, and some people are born.
In the mid-90s, the Four Heavenly Kings were born.
Aaron Kwok is good at singing and dancing, and Jacky Cheung, the affectionate king.
Virtue and art, Andy Lau, the dawn of grace.
They combine strength and popularity.
The era when there was no investment and no data.
Their record sales are second only to Michael Jackson.
With phenomenal influence, he has become a leader in popular culture.
What is called an idol and what is worthy of being called traffic.
Thirty years ago, they set an example for us.
It's just that decades have passed.
The times have changed, the waves have washed the sand, and the legends left on the rivers and lakes are still a few of them.
I really don't know whether to cry or laugh.

Fast forward to the year 2000.
People's expectations for the new era have naturally affected the music scene.
A generation has grown old.
The Chinese music scene is in dire need of fresh strength.
Jay Chou's first god album "Jay" came into being.
From then on, he began 10 years of absolute domination of the music scene.
He used "Qili Xiang" and "Lovely Woman" to open up the Chinese people's perception of R&B.
used "Nunchuck" and "Compendium of Materia Medica" to justify the rap culture that was not loved by the public at that time.
With "Hair Like Snow" and "Blue and White Porcelain", the Chinese style is brought to the world.
Since him, the rolling torrent of the times has poured down unstoppable.
The new Four Heavenly Kings bring pop music to the top.
Jay Chou, Wang Leehom, Lin Junjie, Tao Zhe.
The heavenly kings, who sound like thunder now, could only be a draw at that time.
It was the last golden decade of the Chinese music scene.
It is also a battle of the gods in the true sense of the word.
Every year there is a new shock, and every year there is a fresh genre.
Here, the four heavenly kings are at war.
The "four big and three small" female singers over there are not far behind.
Liang Jingru, Sun Yanzi, Jolin Tsai, Xiao Yaxuan.
The styles are very different, and each leads the way.
Wang Xinling, Rainie Yang, Zhang Shaohan.
has become half of the idol drama OST in our youth.
The mainland music scene is also lively.
At that time, Na Ying was not a comedian Yingzi.
After "Day Doesn't Understand the Darkness of Night" and "Conquest", she became the undoubted "first sister" in the mainland music scene.
Music is never the same.
Pu Shu and Xu Wei blew the folk songs into thousands of households.
Daolang, who sang "The Last Snow in 2002", led to grassroots music.
Faye Wong, who is agile and smart, jumped on the stage to receive the award.
"Thank you for the affirmation of the Golden Melody Awards, and I also affirm the choice of the Golden Melody Awards."
Fresh and moving.
How can you not miss it?
At that time, it seemed that every song was so good.
No matter what your preference is, there is always a song and a word that can be sung to your heart.
Our youth is unbridled.
We have hope in our eyes.

When everyone thinks that the Chinese music scene will go on all the way to the end.
Unexpectedly, it became our final peak.
Some time ago, the results of the new democratically elected Four Heavenly Kings were released.
Clicking on it is the degree of blackening of the eyes.
华晨宇、小鬼王琳凯、姜云升、capper。
Netizens spontaneously started an online scandal trial.
will occupy a few singers who occupy a high position in traffic, but confuse the singers who continue to behave.
jokingly called the "Four Heavenly Kings" and ridiculed.
Although it has little to do with music, it is precisely because it has little to do with music that it makes people feel sad.
No one cares, the Four Heavenly Kings no longer need the blessing of strength and works.
The throne that once made the Chinese music scene steal the head, in this era of entertainment first.
Reduced to a gimmick, a scorn.
And what is really related to music?
Take a look at the list of golden songs from previous years.
The hottest thing is the 15-second music that swipes the screen in the short video.
Bullshit lyrics.
Plagiarized melodies that have become the wind.
The Chinese music scene has long been surnamed Shake Mingyin, and it has returned to the era of CRBT.
The beauty that belongs to our memories has finally become the past.
Maybe we're still listening to songs from 20 years ago in our headphones.
You subconsciously turn on Jay Chou's music.
But those who have occupied our entire youth.
or husband and child, or idle clouds and wild cranes.
The music world is no longer the music world we know.
Today's music scene, bound by traffic and constrained by data, looks hot, but in fact it is falsely prosperous.
For them, a little test is the last brick of the building that will fall, and it does not need to be blown by the wind, and it is already crumbling.
In a sense, "I Am a Singer" has torn the last fig leaf of the Chinese music scene.
Some people say that European and American singers have a racial advantage over Chinese, and the decline of the Chinese music scene is helpless.
That's certainly not an excuse for the current music scene to be a puddle of mud.
Who remembers that more than 30 years ago, Alan Tam, a Chinese who had no influence.
You can hold 6 concerts in the United States in a row, and the venues are full.
Who still remembers that the young and vigorous Jay Chou can say with absolute confidence that Chinese music is the most hanging.
Who still remembers that Coco Li, who was dressed in a Chinese red cheongsam, sang at the Oscars and brought everyone a shock.
After sitting in an easy chair for a long time, the money has become too easy to earn, and I have long lost my self-esteem and blood.
"The Singer" exploded, maybe it's a good thing.
At least let those self-righteous singers understand that no one can live in the bubble blown by fans all the time.
Let the really powerful people be seen, and let those who are indiscriminate and full of numbers automatically be eliminated by the audience.
It's a mule, it's a horse. Pull it out and yo-yo to know.
Don't wait until the next time we mention the Chinese music scene, we are still talking about the glory of 30 years ago.
