The awards ceremony for the Four Nations Concert was scheduled for the evening of the next day. As for the prize money, even if they didn't win the championship, the other songwriters were still very willing to come to China again.
What's more, this time not only was the champion's prize money generous, but all the songwriters who made it to the finals also received a considerable amount of prize money.
There was even a trophy from the Four Nations Concert to be awarded.
For the songwriters, this was no small honor.
After all, without some real skill, one truly couldn't obtain this honor.
And today, Xue Qing's new album, "Dark Sky," had also just been online for a week, with over 20 million sales, which was equally impressive.
While outsiders were envious and jealous, they could only feel sour in their hearts.
They didn't know how far Xue Qing could go on the path of a singer, but they knew that Xue Qing's future achievements would certainly not be too low!
On September 8th, Su Yu and others arrived at Jinling TV, and all the songwriters who had entered the finals gathered there.
In fact, they had recently been in China anyway. Because of the Four Nations Concert, these songwriters had actually received many invitations related to music variety shows.
Either as judges, or simply as contestants directly participating in the competition.
Therefore, among everyone, except for Su Yu, who had no plans to take on any variety shows in the near future, everyone else had more or less enjoyed the dividends of their popularity.
Of course, in addition to Chris, Kailina, Ida Shoichiro, and Chu Ming, who came to Jinling TV, Quanshui, who performed well in the variety show, also received work invitations.
The only ones who could be said to be unpopular were perhaps the few South Korea songwriters.
Not only did they have no popularity in China, but they also faced disdain upon returning to South Korea, making them the "victims" of this variety show.
Amidst a shower of gold, Su Yu lifted the trophy for the first season's overall champion of the Four Nations Concert.
Although the trophy was very heavy, it was only plated with a layer of gold on the surface; its core was actually pure copper.
Although the trophy was not worth much money, what it represented was extremely valuable!
Everyone else's trophies were all the same silver color; Jinling TV did not differentiate between places 2-5.
This made Ida Shoichiro, who ranked lower, a little overjoyed.
And in addition to Su Yu, who won the championship and took home a prize of 100 million chinese yuan, the other songwriters each received 30 million chinese yuan.
The disparity here was quite large, but those present had nothing to complain about.
After all, who told them not to win the championship?
Moreover, a prize of 30 million chinese yuan was truly a lot.
During this period, every one of their songs was launched on the Four Nations music platform, and they made a fortune just from the Divide.
The prize money, in fact, was just the icing on the cake.
"Su Jun, our Neon TV wants to invite you to participate in a large-scale outdoor reality variety show over there. I wonder if you are interested? The remuneration is negotiable."
After the awards ceremony, Director Dahe from Neon TV came over with a smile and respectfully extended the invitation.
This time, their branch directors actually didn't need to come, but Dahe recently had a variety show to produce, so he thought of Su Yu, who was very popular in Neon.
He wanted to use this awards ceremony to connect with Su Yu, so that not only could Su Yu participate in his variety show, but singers from Tianxing Entertainment would also have the opportunity to participate.
Wouldn't his variety show then become a huge hit?
And as soon as their station heard Dahe's idea, they immediately gave an extremely high, sky-high budget!
What a joke, if they could invite Su Yu, wouldn't sponsors throw money at them until they died?
"Sorry, I temporarily have no plans to continue participating in variety shows." Since the other party was so polite, Su Yu naturally wouldn't give him a cold shoulder.
But refusing was definite.
Su Yu still knew the extent to which variety shows in South Korea and Neon were open, and he felt it was better for him not to go.
Moreover, Su Yu had just finished participating in the Four Nations Concert during this period, and he did not plan to continue participating in variety shows in the short term.
"What about others from your company? SSR Girl Group, Zhang Xiaohan are also fine!" Dahe asked, unwilling to give up.
He really didn't expect Su Yu to refuse outright without even asking about the remuneration.
So he continued to press, unwilling to give up.
"This requires contacting their agents; I cannot make decisions for them."
Su Yu replied.
In fact, Su Yu knew without thinking that if he agreed to go, Zhang Xiaohan and the others would naturally not refuse either.
And if he wasn't going, what would they go for?
Is China not big enough? Are their variety show invitations not enough?
What a joke, if it weren't for them valuing their reputation, their current work could be scheduled for a year from now.
Dahe sighed and left with a look of defeat.
It seemed he could only invite other songwriters.
However, tonight was destined to disappoint him.
Because not only did Su Yu refuse him, but Chu Ming and others also politely declined the invitation, citing lack of time and availability.
Even Ida Shoichiro refused.
It was simply that Dahe's speed was too slow; those more astute than him had already made their moves.
Just as Su Yu was about to leave Jinling TV, Qian Jin also found him.
"Teacher Su Yu, are you interested in participating in the second season of the Four Nations Concert?" Qian Jin knew that Su Yu didn't like to beat around the bush, so he directly stated his intention.
"Second season? The first season just ended, and you're already eager to do the second season?"
Su Yu didn't answer him, but instead asked back with a look of seeing a ghost.
"Although Neon and the United States are extremely active and enthusiastic about the second season, the second season will be at the earliest in January or February of next year. I'm just asking you to make an early reservation! After all, you're so busy."
The lead time Qian Jin was taking was truly unusually long.
It was only September now, and he was already making reservations for next year.
"The higher-ups' intention?" Su Yu knew that this variety show was entirely overseen by representatives from the higher-ups, and the higher-ups also had the idea of gradually opening up.
If the higher-ups hoped that he would continue to participate in the second season, then Su Yu would obviously not refuse.
"Cough cough, there's no mandatory requirement for this; it's just to see what you decide based on your own thoughts, and the second season will expand the number of participating countries, and the variety show will also be renamed the Blue Star Concert!"
Qian Jin also knew what Su Yu meant, but he didn't dare to use the tiger's skin as a banner; if he offended Su Yu then, it would be a loss.
And the second season of the Blue Star Concert also needed time for preparation and the formulation of new rules.
These were all extremely trivial matters, and it would be considered fast if they could prepare for the live broadcast by January or February of next year!
However, if this larger music event did not feature Su Yu, its excitement would inevitably be greatly affected!
After all, there are many top-tier songwriters overseas who are thinking of defeating Su Yu and ascending to the throne...
