Chapter 684 I can't stand it anymore

Journalists are most afraid of no news. As long as there is news, they are the most excited, no matter what type of news it is.

The sequelae of the current Grammy Awards is the biggest news. After the announcement of various awards, the Western media did not comment at the first time, but remained silent. Now that the lobsters around the world are making such a fuss, they can't remain silent even if they want to.

Hong Kong's "Newspaper" and TVB first commented that the first press conference of Lobster was held in Hong Kong. They had the advantage of geographical and time. Basically, the press conference here ended and they followed up. In addition to their own reporters, they also found some well-known musicians to describe the market value and artistic value of "youarebeautiful". The final conclusion was that it could at least win the best album and the best record. Even if it talked about it from the opposite side of singing, it was qualified to compete for the best male singer. As long's first album, it could cause such a huge sensation and be loved by so many fans around the world. It would be no exaggeration to win a Best Newcomer Award. They really don't understand. In today's world, there is no idea who is more qualified to be the Best Newcomer than Long.

Therefore, they concluded that the selection committee excluded the most award-winning persons out of total prejudice, and this narrow and arrogant thinking will surely damage the reputation and future influence of the Grammy Awards.

The "Newspaper" and TVB made the first shot, and the follow-up will be easier. Singapore's "Lian Zaobao", Baodao "United Daily" and Russian International Telecommunications News Agency followed closely. After interviewing a large number of fans, they also pointed their finger at the National Audio Recording and Science Society of the United States.

Starting from February 16, mainstream media around the world began to report that lobsters sent letters to the unfairness of the 38th Grammy Awards. On this day, the National Society of Recording and Sciences of the United States received more than 10,000 letters from all over the world, and received more than 50,000 complaints. Many people also sent them faxes. In short, the National Society of Recording and Sciences of the United States has begun to encounter unprecedented pressure and crisis because of the award selection.

One thing that has to be said is that most of the reporters actually like this album. There are always a few songs in it that they particularly like, so when doing the report, they also add a lot of their emotions and opinions to the content, which will make people feel more real.

The media and the people are two groups that complement each other and promote each other. The behavior of the people allows the media to find news points and attention, and the media's reports expand the passion and attention of the people, thus forming a larger news point.

With the fuel of global media, by February 17, the questioning and criticism of the National Audio Recording and Science Society of the United States rose in a geometric multiple. The protest letters they received suddenly increased from 10,000 letters the day before to 10,000 letters. Their phone calls were directly blown up. By the end, the Science Society of the People's Republic of China were no longer afraid to answer the phone calls, and some individual judges even began to receive protest messages.

In short, the wave is getting bigger and bigger. During this period, some media are on the side of the American National Recording and the Science Society, highlighting that they are fair and professional. There is nothing wrong with the media's statement of such views, and they are also on a certain objective standpoint. It is just that the questions they receive are unable to answer.

"Is the album "Youare Beautiful" not good or not professional?" Many fans sent such questions to these media.

There is no way to answer this question. If the answer is "good", it means that the album is not lacking in quality, art, or professionalism. This will contradict my previous comments. If the answer is not good, it is lying with my eyes open and insulting the IQ and appreciation level of tens of millions of fans around the world. Even if there are many people who really like this album, how can they not answer it well?

This embarrassment can only force these media to shut up or move them to the situation of supporting fans. After all, for the media, the audience is their parents of food and clothing. If you cannot answer the questions from listeners or readers well, you can only choose to stand on the same standpoint as them, otherwise the consequences will be very troublesome.

A one-sided situation quickly formed, and both the media and fans almost criticized the mistakes and prejudice of the National Audio and Science Society for the selection of this Grammy Award.

At first, the National Audio and Science Society of the United States also adhered to its neutral position, neither commented nor responded to the opinions of fans, because every year, there will always encounter similar things. As the saying goes, it is difficult to talk about. There are always fans of some musicians who have not won awards and will express different opinions. In this regard, the National Audio and Science Society of the United States adopts a cold treatment method, and let them go for two days and then they will be calmed down.

But this incident was very different. Not only did the opposition not slowly subside, but it became louder and louder. On February 18, the National Science Society of America could no longer withstand it because they received three million letters of protest on that day. The local post office arranged several large postal vehicles to transport these bundles of letters to their offices. A large office of the National Audio and Science Society of America was already filled with these piles of letters. These letters cannot be thrown away, burned, and even more so they cannot be read (the content is similar anyway, and I can't see it).

As a last resort, Mr. Andrews, vice president of the National Society for Recording and Science, was finally assigned to hold a press conference to clarify the truth and their position.

"First of all, I have to tell all the friends in the press, and hope that through you, we have told the long fans that over the past four decades, we have made countless awards to different musicians. Our National Recording and Science Society has upheld the tenet of fairness, professionalism and openness since the moment it was established. Over the past decades, white, black, yellow people have won all the awards of our Grammy, and nationality has also been distributed in dozens of countries. So some people criticized us for racism, which is not true. Really, far from objective facts, our management committee does not participate in the award selection. Our award process has very strict regulations. From nomination to award drawing, the process has not changed for decades. Everything is the judges of these professionals vote based on their personal appreciation. The result is completely uncontrollable,,,,,.” Andrews said basically seeking truth from facts. If he wants to convince the media and thousands of fans, he can only show their attitude in such a way that is close to the facts.

However, a reporter immediately asked: "Mr. Andrews, you said you have no racist thinking. So why so far, except for Yo-Yo Ma who has won the Grammy twice in the performance category, why hasn't Chinese won this award? Moreover, Yo-Yo Ma is also an American."

"Your question is very meaningful. The fact that Yo-Yo Ma can win the award shows that we do not have racial discrimination. As for why no Chinese won the award except him, I can only give objective comments and speculations. This is because in the global pop music field, their level is not high enough." Andrews's answer should be said that the belt also has a certain objectivity, not completely slander.

"Then I want to ask, Mr. Andrews, is the album of Long not of high enough?" asked another French reporter who was good at it.

"NO, NO, NO, I never thought that a person who had just entered the music industry could present such a perfect record. This is incredible. To be honest, I am all his fans." At this time, no matter what the facts are, Andrews would not be stupid enough to criticize Chen Kangjie for his bad things. Instead, he should please him.

The flaw in Andrews' answer to the question was immediately seized by HBO TV reporter Streisan, "Since you admit that this album is perfect and you like it yourself, it's very strange that such a perfect album has only won one medium award and no big prize. What's the reason?"

Streisan is not a person of color, but a genuine white American, but she has always had a great affection and enthusiasm for Chen Kangjie. Otherwise, she would not have gone to the top when she first filmed "The True Lies" and finally got the opportunity to interview Chen Kangjie in the future.

Of course, in addition to helping Chen Kangjie like this, in addition to grasping the key to the problem with the thinking and logic of the reporter, she also somewhat like Chen Kangjie's intention to show kindness. He didn't want Chen Kangjie to break his promise. He believed that Chen Kangjie must have paid attention to this press conference. If there was such a big situation, no matter who it was, it would be impossible not to pay attention.

It can be said that Streisan's tricky question forced Andrews to the corner, and the question revolved back to the original truth and origin. Andrews could not simply answer the question directly.

"This,,,,,." Andrews paused and silently said, "In fact, there was no sweat on his forehead, but it meant that he was still a little nervous and embarrassed. He just said that no matter whether it was nervous or difficult, the reporters pointed their eyes and camera at him, waiting for his answer.

"To be honest, I am also very sorry that from my personal perspective, long should at least win the best newcomer, but these are spontaneously selected by the judges. We cannot predict and control the results of the selection, and the results of the award cannot be changed." Andrews was forced to say a fair word, but he once again emphasized the fairness of the Grammy Awards.
