Jin Yanming was completely disheartened. He felt that he had not made any progress in his work at the newspaper office.
The dark entertainment industry had bought over the newspaper office. He was not willing to be a reporter like this.
He had already decided to become the chief editor of the Free News and report on entertainment news, real entertainment news.
However, he still had a lot of things to do before that. He had to finish interviewing the Chinese music industry's golden age and bring his two years of hard work to a successful conclusion.
All the major television stations were broadcasting the show, and it could be said that the stars were shining. The female celebrities were even more competitive, just for the sake of exposure.
It also provided more scenery for the audience in front of the television.
Actually, the awards ceremony alone did not take that long. First, the entrance ceremony took up more than half of the time. During the awards ceremony, some performance songs were inserted.
Sun Yilu didn't receive any awards. Her album only won the best album award.
This meant that her journey to become the empress had failed.
The best female singer was taken away by the Heavenly Queen Su Ruoxue, while the most popular female singer was taken by another Heavenly Queen, Qi Yujie.
Sun Yilu didn't look depressed at all, but the disappointment on her face couldn't be concealed.
The awards were divided among the four major record companies. This time, Modern and Ancient Records only received some consolation awards.
The moment the list of winners was out, the audience and reporters were in an uproar.
Because the most popular male singer was actually a young hunk, Cai Lun. He was so handsome that his milk flowed out. His delicate and fair face had gained a lot of fans.
Unfortunately, he had only released a few songs and was not well-known. He was so famous because of his good looks and the company he worked for was good at hype.
One could imagine how big the news would be if Cai Lun did not have any work that could be presented, but he won the most popular male singer award.
Also, Sun Yilu's trip to become the empress was also worth reporting.
All kinds of things were waiting to be eaten. The more controversial it was, the more topics there would be, and the more traffic it would attract.
The person in charge of the Chinese Music Awards this time was Ma Xiangdong. He had only taken over the management of the Chinese Music Awards for three years, and after taking over, he had a closer relationship with the four major record companies.
He was also in an ambiguous relationship with many female singers. He especially liked Sun Yilu and had once hinted at modern and ancient music. Unfortunately, he was immediately warned.
It wasn't that Modern Music was warning him, but his backer in the company, his brother-in-law, was warning him not to mess around.
His position had nothing to do with his ability. It was only because of the internal conflicts in the company. His brother-in-law was one of the top executives, and the previous hero who managed the Chinese Music Awards was also his brother-in-law's confidant.
His brother-in-law was at odds with the person in charge of the World Music newspaper department.
Because of this, Ma Xiangdong had always been very unhappy with the World Music News. He felt that the previous reports on the Chinese Music Awards were unfair and full of insider news, which was one of the enemy's means of attack.
After he took over, he had provided a lot of income for the company. Part of it was the money given to him by the four major companies to help squeeze out some small record companies.
It wasn't just the record company that was doing this. Some of the singers under the Big Four would also give him money. For example, Cai Lun received a lot of money this time.
However, the money did not go into his personal pocket, but into the company's account. As for how much he had obtained in private, no one knew.
For this reason, his account was very good, and his turnover was double that of the previous one.
The head office usually only looked at the reports and did not care about those rumors, so they paid more attention to him.
He thought that he had played around in the music industry. Although his private life was not clean, he had actually created more profits for the company.
At the same time, he also liked to be in the limelight. This time, he was the representative of the government for the interview.
The reporters all liked this guy because Ma Xiangdong had enough information.
Ma Xiangdong was dressed in a suit and said,""Dear reporters and media, I will be answering your questions at this press conference. Please come one by one.”
"I'm a reporter from Dongfang Entertainment. May I ask CEO Ma if there's any shady dealings at the awards ceremony?”
"I don't know what you're referring to, but our Chinese Music Awards are fair and just. After so many years of reputation, the fact that all the musicians have come to participate in our awards is proof of that.”
"CEO Ma, there's a rumor that you can use money to buy awards since you took office. Is that true?”
"Some rumors. Please don't spread rumors.”
"CEO Ma, everyone was very surprised that Cai Lun won the most popular male singer award. Whether it's his popularity or his works, it doesn't seem like he can win this award. Everyone said that this was a behind-the-scenes deal.”
"There was absolutely no behind-the-scenes deal. We judged this award based on the survey responses of the major newspapers, the number of fans, and a professional team.”
Jin Yanming was not in a hurry to ask. He knew that there was plenty of time. After all, it was after the match.
If he didn't know some insider information and saw Ma Xiangdong dealing with the reporters seriously, he would have thought that Ma Xiangdong was telling the truth.
"Why didn't Sun Yilu win any awards?" some reporters asked.”
"I like her very much too, but we have a professional evaluation team and experienced music producers involved. Many singers didn't win awards, so we can only give the awards to better people.”
"Are you saying that Sun Yilu isn't good enough? I heard that Sun Yilu was targeted because she rejected your date.”
" Nonsense," Ma Xiangdong said angrily." These things are all non-existent. Let me ask you a meaningful question. Next."”
Jin Yanming finally started to ask when everyone had asked enough questions.
"CEO Ma, this music ceremony doesn't seem to include online songs. There are many high-quality online songs on the internet. May I ask why the organizers didn't consider including them in the awards event?”
Ma Xiangdong was a little surprised. He finally stopped asking questions about singers and insider information.
Someone actually asked about the organizer's operations.
He thought for a moment and said," We're only evaluating the music that has been released. As for the rest, we have no plans to include them. Moreover, the internet is a mix of good and bad. A virtual online music can easily lower the quality of our Chinese Music Awards.”
Actually, everyone had a rather resistant attitude towards the Internet. Not to mention big companies, even the mainstream people in society were more resistant.
"Does this mean that the songs released on the Internet can't participate in the Chinese Music Awards?" Jin Yanming asked again.”
"Yes, we don't accept third-rate music.”
Everyone was in an uproar. Then, he became excited. This was big news because Ma Xiangdong had directly determined that online music was not mainstream music.
