Chapter 188 Oriole Award Finalists

After two days of rehearsal, it was Friday.

Tonight is the anniversary party of Donghai Conservatory of Music.

At the same time, there is another thing, and that is the Orioles Award, one of the three major Chinese Golden Melody Awards. The shortlist will be announced tonight.

In the morning, Fang Xing attended the studio meeting.

The studio team also analyzed the Oriole Awards situation this time around.

"I just received news that the competition for this year's Orioles Awards is very fierce. There is a new song "Sexy" released by SPK, and a single released by Li Siqi, and SPK is also a strong contender for the best male group..."

Koda Koda began to analyze the situation eloquently: "In addition, King Liu Hongsheng, Queen Qi Xiuna, and Xu Xinjun all have new songs to compete for this year's Oriole Awards.

"This year's Orioles Awards are really a mess. Among the three major record companies, Puxiang Records, Long Whale Records, plus Mailin Records, Chaoyin Culture, and us, there are seven record companies in the top ten.

Participating in this year’s competition does not count independent singers, songwriters and bands.”

After Guo Keda finished speaking, he asked: "Brother Fang, there are so many opponents, do we still have a chance to win the prize?"

Fang Xing was not nervous about this and replied easily: "I think so."

"Then let's wait for the organizer to announce the shortlist together tonight?" Guo Keda asked.

"I have to attend the school anniversary party tonight, did you forget?" Fang Xing shook his head and smiled.

Guo Keda slapped his head and said: "Brother Fang has too few work arrangements, so few that he seems to be free at any time."

Fang Xing frowned and asked in confusion: "Is my work schedule really so small?"

Guo Keda was not reserved at all: "If your schedule is released, you will definitely win the title of the best salty fish in the entertainment industry."

Qiao Yinghong took over and said: "Boss, since you answered reporters' questions at the last press conference and mentioned your intention to film. In the past few days, many film and television companies have sent me 20 or 30 scripts.

"Does the boss really want to act? Do you want to choose from these scripts? If you have this intention, I will arrange for someone to screen the scripts."

Fang Xing is very popular now, and he has also made a name for himself abroad and is gaining momentum.

Even if your acting skills are not good, there will be countless film and television companies who want to cooperate with you.

Especially some small-scale film and television companies can invite top-notch actors to participate, and they can still make money even if they are bad.

Fang Xing thought about it and replied, "You can screen the scripts. However, I probably won't be interested in any scripts that are not ridiculously good."

Qiao Yinghong nodded and replied: "Of course, the boss is not short of fame now. Even if he wants to film a movie, he must find the best script and the best team. He cannot accept the movie casually."

Qiao Yinghong's current positioning is very clear.

Now Fang Xing is just one important award away from being a top-tier singer, or even surpassing the top-tier singers.

Although he has proven his singing ability with songs, he lacks a Golden Melody Award.

In the eyes of people who don't know the industry, awards are more important than strength.

Therefore, the selection for the Oriole Awards is around the corner, and the first, second, and third-tier singers in the music industry who have released new songs this year are all looking forward to relying on the Oriole Awards to make a comeback.

As long as you win a significant award at the Oriole Awards, you will be above the top level as a singer.

As for acting, cross-border crossover is possible, but one must be cautious.

Because Fang Xing is not short of fame, he doesn't need to film movies to show off his reputation.

If you want to accept it, accept the script, and only the script.

If the script is not good, even if it is an S-level production, it will not be considered.

However, there are inherently few good scripts. If the script is really good, the investment will definitely not be small.

Therefore, if you want to find omissions in the scripts submitted by these film and television companies, the probability is actually very small.

Of course, the probability is still small, and the work of screening scripts still needs to be done.

…

After the company's work meeting ended, Fang Xing went back to school and started preparing for the party performance.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the anniversary party of Donghai Conservatory of Music officially started.

The first opening program is folk dance.

Then the First Dongyin Symphony Orchestra came on stage.

After the symphony orchestra was ready, Fang Xing, Lu Xiang'er and Professor He Zhaolin came on stage together and each walked to the piano, violin and podium positions.

The three of them bowed to the audience together.

Afterwards, Fang Xing sat down in front of the piano, facing the audience.

He Zhaolin turned to face the symphony orchestra, with his back to the audience.

Lu Xiang'er turned sideways and faced the audience, looked in the direction of the conductor, picked up the bow, put it on the strings, and got ready.

Tonight, Lu Xiang'er is wearing a light blue dress.

The pressure of the school party is relatively relaxed compared to international competitions, so there is not much pressure.

He Zhaolin clicked the baton, and the piano accompaniment came first, followed by the violin, and finally the symphony orchestra.

The melody of "Skylark" echoed in the Dongyin Auditorium.

All the teachers and students in the audience listened carefully, because this piece won the gold medal in the Paganini Competition and created history. It can be called a legendary event at the Donghai Conservatory of Music.

Fang Xing's fingers danced smoothly on the black and white keys, and the notes jumped out from his fingertips, intertwined with the sound of the violin, spiraling around, melodious and agile.

After "Skylark" was played, the symphony orchestra did not withdraw.

Lu Xiang'er returned from the position of lead violin to the first violin group.

Fang Xing stood up from the piano position, and another piano major came up and sat in front of the piano.

Immediately afterwards, Fang Xing picked up the microphone and walked to the front.

He Zhaolin turned to the next page of music scores and began to conduct the next piece.

At the same time, the backstage accompaniment sounded: "A young man who is wise will be wise, and a young man who is rich will make the country rich..."

Fang Xing once again sang "Young China" at the school party.

This song has become a must-play at the Donghai Conservatory of Music’s party.

Even if Fang Xing does not participate in the party performance, other students will be responsible for singing this song.

After the song was sung, it was Chen Wenhan's turn to play Paganini's Violin Concerto No. 2 in B minor.

This is also the piece for which he won third prize at the Paganini International Violin Competition.

Lu Xiang'er, who won the Paganini Gold Medal, also performed on stage.

The school cannot favor one over the other, so it also arranged a program for Chen Wenhan, with the purpose of encouraging students to win glory for their alma mater in international competitions.

However, Chen Wenhan performed after "Skylark" and "Young China", and he only won the third prize, which made him expressionless when he played.

After Fang Xing and Lu Xiang'er's program ended, they returned to the auditorium and watched the program for a while.

Seeing Chen Wenhan's performance, Fang Xing lost interest. He pulled Lu Xiang'er's hand and whispered in her ear: "Go out and get some air."

Lu Xiang'er nodded, the two looked at each other and smiled, then they hunched their waists together, passed through the seats, and went out through the back door.

…

When Chen Wenhan was playing just now, he noticed Fang Xing and Lu Xiang'er in the audience.

At the Paganini International Violin Competition, he was upset by Lu Xiang'er. He was already unhappy. But this time at the party, Lu Xiang'er was arranged to perform behind Fang Xing, which made him even more unconvinced.

After he finished his performance, he returned backstage.

Outside the locker room, I heard someone talking about him.

"Chen Wenhan thought he came from a musical family and always used his nostrils to look at people. Now it's better. He was pressed on his head by a girl. You didn't see the expression on his face when he was playing the piano on the stage just now. Thinking about it makes me feel good."

A boy was gloating about his misfortune.

Chen Wenhan is indeed not very popular among the boys in school.

Because he would distinguish himself from other classmates, as if he was from a noble family and was not from the same family as other classmates.

If this was just the case, in fact, as a classmate, we would just try to have as little contact as possible, and we wouldn't be so resistant to him.

However, Chen Wenhan is famous for his love of poaching.

When he falls in love with a girl, no matter whether the girl has a boyfriend or not, he wants to catch her anyway.

Moreover, he is good-looking, well-born, and plays the violin well.

With his material foundation, art, status, and education, on the surface, he is indeed a high-quality man, so poaching will succeed every time.

Sometimes, it doesn’t count as poaching.

Because his competitor hadn't succeeded in holding hands yet, he stepped in and got the girl, and then he soon got tired of it.

Students who were in the same class with him in the past analyzed it and felt that Chen Wenhan did not like to chase girls, but just enjoyed the thrill of defeating his love rival. Once he really chased the girl, he soon got tired of it.

After doing this a few times, he became very unpopular in the class.
