Zhao Xinhai looked at Liu Hai's disappearing figure. Liu Hai clearly saw him but did not greet him. This was definitely a kind of contempt for him. He was the only one who knew Liu Hai, but Liu Hai left without any expression in front of him. At the very least, he should have greeted him! In fact, Zhao Xinhai had misunderstood Liu Hai. At that time, Liu Hai was still deep in thought and did not notice him.
Zhao Xinhai thought for a long time and took out his phone.
"Hello, Young Master Xing. You don't like Liu Hai. I'm performing at Wuyi Square today, and Liu Hai is also participating. This guy is very arrogant. If you still want to punish him, add some spice before the competition and you won't let him have his way. For example, he sang a few songs, and every song was very good, but do you believe that these songs were written by him? For example, he didn't even greet the seniors after he finished singing today. Isn't that impolite and disrespectful? Young Master Xing, I don't have a strong relationship with the media. If you want to give him some information, these topics are still good news."
Xing Yinghao was very happy after hearing Zhao Xinhai's words. He had been thinking about this matter for the past few days and had been unable to vent his anger. Now, Liu Hai, just you wait. You made me lose face in the audition, so I'll make you lose face in the competition.
" Brother Zhao, thank you. If you find or hear anything about him again, let me know. I'll make sure he stinks. I'll let him show off in front of me." Xing Yinghao hung up after talking to Zhao Xinhai for a while.
Xing Yinghao got angry at the thought of Liu Hai." I'll make you stink tomorrow. This is what happens when you offend me." He opened his phone book.
"Is it Uncle Huang? Yes, my father is Xing Yuze. It's nothing serious, it's just…Thank you, Uncle Huang."
" Brother Feng, yes, I'm Xing Yinghao. You're welcome. That was just a small matter. In the future, don't stand on ceremony. Brother Feng, I want you to do something for me. It's not illegal. It's just a small matter. It's just a small singer. Yes, it's…"
……
……
At this moment, Liu Hai was already lying on the bed. Today was the only time he did not practice on time. A commercial gala had broken his three-year habit. Ever since he came back from Wuyi Square, Liu Hai's heart had not been able to calm down. It was as if something was about to happen. His heart was in a panic and he did not seem to have the energy to do anything.
The next day, which was July 14th, 1996, Liu Hai woke up at 5 am as usual. He ran, practiced boxing, and sang. He went home from the park at 7 am. When Liu Hai was about to buy a newspaper at the newspaper stand in front of the neighborhood, he realized that his name was on the entertainment news.
Liu Hai bought a copy and browsed through it on the way. He realized that it was all bad news for him. Out of more than ten newspapers, only the Jingdu Evening News published the introduction of last night's performance, but it was only a small piece. The other newspapers mostly questioned Liu Hai's songs. A few newspapers even said that Liu Hai was acting like a big shot after the party, disrespecting his seniors and admiring himself. Liu Hai really became famous overnight.
What was this? If they said that he plagiarized the song, he would admit it. The song did indeed come from another world, but disrespecting his seniors was a big deal. Someone was trying to isolate him. Once this became a fact that was not true, he would really be scolded by the people in the entertainment industry.
Liu Hai returned home and threw the newspaper on the coffee table. Who was this? I can't possibly offend a reporter from the news industry! Besides, I don't have the right to control the news now. How did I become the headline after one night? Is it so easy to make the headlines? Who was behind all this? Liu Hai frowned and thought.
The News and Entertainment News published the article," A 20-year-old bar singer actually wrote a classic song."
Beijing Daily published [The posture of a small singer and a big shot]
[Is it really that easy to sing a classic song?]
…………
In an era where self-conscious media was prevalent, these revelations became self-conscious media, and even some media outlets called them " rumors " and " suspected ". Then, they became the topic of discussion among the masses who did not know the truth. Of course, these topics were indeed sensational enough to attract people's attention, so it could make people famous overnight, and it could also make famous entertainers notorious overnight.
Liu Hai did not intend to fight with the media industry. He did not have time to play with these people. The more he played, the more he would end up hurting himself. Entertainment news emerged endlessly every day. Entertainment reporters often spread false news in order to gain attention. They avoided the truth and often looked for the edge of the truth in front of the truth.
A burst of cell phone music woke Liu Hai up from his thoughts. He picked up his cell phone and picked up the call when he saw that it was Brother De.
"Hello, Brother De."
"Haizi, have you seen the newspaper?"
"I'm looking at it," Liu Hai said with a wry smile.”
"Haizi, did you offend someone? So many media outlets are targeting you. This is bad news. Do you need me to find someone to ask?”
"Thank you, Brother De. It's not time to make a move yet.”
"What do you mean? Tomorrow is your competition day!" Brother De panted.
"Brother De, listen to me. A bad reputation is still a reputation. I don't have the money to advertise. Besides, although the rumors are getting more and more widespread, the rumors stop with the wise. Moreover, the program I'm participating in will be broadcast to the audience on the television station in a few days. Brother De, do you think a controversial person is famous, or…"
"Hai Zi, this is a risky move. You have to be careful."
"Brother De, I might not be able to go to the bar today. It's not because of the news. I want to prepare at home."
"Alright, if you encounter something that you can't solve, tell Brother De. I'll think of a way for you."
"Thank you, Brother De."
Liu Hai knew the gains and losses behind this matter. In the future, if an entertainer wanted to be famous, they would be in love, cheated on, and be videoed. The entertainment industry was like a big dye vat. If you wanted to get in, you didn't have to care about the color on your body or whether you were good or bad. Because your image was in the hands of the entertainment media, unless you had a strong backing or strength.
And Liu Hai was the strength of strength.
The next day, Liu Hai had already expected that the media would still be playing word games with him. News about suspicions, rumors, rumors, and so on were written in the newspapers happily. Some media even published " Is Brother Shanliang really kind?" and " Is it hype or true feelings? Let the editor analyze it for you." The news about Liu Hai seemed to be on the rise.
Liu Hai was not affected by these things and went to the competition area to record today's mood. He just had a pair of big sunglasses on his face. He came to the recording site alone and found that the entrance was crowded with reporters of all sizes. Some were holding cameras and taking pictures, while others were holding cameras and recording the scene at the commentator.
Liu Hai watched from afar with his sunglasses on. He didn't know how to get in. Liu Hai quietly walked to the side of the door, wanting to squeeze in from the side where there were fewer people, but he was still recognized by the reporters.
"Liu Hai! Ah, bangs!" Someone shouted and quickly surrounded him.
"Liu Hai, what do you think about helping the weak?"
"Liu Hai, do you think you can still write good songs?”
"Liu Hai, what do you think of the pop song competition?”
……
Liu Hai silently looked at the reporters surrounding him. He did not say anything and did not know what to do. Fortunately, the staff pushed the reporters away and pulled Liu Hai in.
" Don't crowd around. We're not having a press conference in the conference hall at three o'clock. What are you guys doing here?" A staff member said to the reporters who were squeezing by the door.
Liu Hai let out a long sigh and walked quickly to the building. He handed the invitation card to the registration staff at the door. The staff explained the rules of the competition to him and handed him a competition booklet.
The 2nd China Popular Singing Competition was a large-scale talent show organized by Central TV Entertainment Channel. The main purpose of this program was to discover entertainment talents and prosper Chinese culture.
At present, the number of people who had been screened was 120. The first stage consisted of a total of five instructors. They would turn around and listen to the recording. The recording would be completed in a total of six sessions. Each instructor would have a final quota of 10 people, so the number of people eliminated would be 70.
In the second stage, there would be a group competition. Each group would have four people.
The third stage was for the top 20 to draw lots and compete in pairs. They were the top 20, the top 10, and the top 10, the top 5.
The last five participants would participate in the finals.
The competition was a closed one, and participants were not allowed to bring any communication equipment with them before entering the venue. All participants were not allowed to join any entertainment company, and once discovered, they would be disqualified from participating in the competition and would not be allowed to participate in any of Central TV's programs for three years.
The coaches of the contestants were: famous musician Zhang Jianwei, Hong Kong Queen of Songs Ouyang Chunchun, Mainland King of Songs Cheng Sijie, Mainland Queen of Songs Feng Feifei, and Mainland singer Wang Kefei.
Liu Hai was reading the competition guidelines when he was interrupted by a voice." You're Liu Hai, right? I'm the director of this competition, Zhang Tianqiao."
" Hello, Director Zhang, I'm Liu Hai." When Liu Hai heard that it was Director Zhang Tianqiao, he quickly stood up from his seat and said,
"There's going to be a press conference in a while. I know what you've been doing for the past two to three days. I don't care if these things are true or not, but there will definitely be people asking you about them at the press conference. If you're confident, say it. But if you're not, don't say it. I know the nature of these reporters very well. Even if there's nothing, they will still dig a hole for you, so you must be careful with what you say."
" Thank you for your reminder, Director Zhang." Liu Hai nodded at Zhang Tianqiao gratefully.
In fact, Zhang Tianqiao was also very conflicted this time. Before the start of the competition, something like this happened to the contestant, which made him very distressed. Originally, the other people in the program team wanted to fire Liu Hai, but Zhang Tianqiao still chose Liu Hai. One of the reasons was that Liu Hai sang well, and the main reason was that Liu Hai was a trending contestant and the main focus of the program's viewership ratings.
Zhang Tianqiao looked at Liu Hai with a complicated gaze and said,""Let me say this first. If you have anything to say, I will not hesitate to withdraw you for the sake of the show.”Zhang Tianqiao left after saying that.
