As for when he would be able to reach 10 billion overseas prestige points and complete the lifespan mission issued by the system, Su Yu knew that it would require more widely influential works.
Although this mission was extremely difficult, fortunately, there were still three years, and not even one year had passed yet.
At the same time, the highly anticipated Four Nations Concert Season 2, “Blue Star Concert,” was also in full swing.
Qian Jin promptly informed Su Yu of the preparation progress. According to the current plan, if there were no surprises, the first episode of Season 2 would officially begin on March 1st.
At that time, Su Yu could decide whether to debut a work in the first episode based on his own schedule, which undoubtedly filled him with more anticipation and possibilities for his future artistic development.
The production team treated Su Yu with extreme leniency, granting him full creative freedom; no one would deliberately make strict demands on Su Yu or dictate how he must act.
However, the production team also had a plan in mind: once Huaxia’s composers found it difficult to cope with the fierce competition in “Blue Star Concert,” Su Yu, this supremely powerful “great god,” would still be their last resort and Ace Composer, needing him to step up and turn the tide.
After all, in their hearts, Su Yu’s talent and ability were beyond doubt, always bringing unexpected surprises and miracles at critical moments.
Su Yu naturally had no objection to this; he deeply understood the responsibility he bore and was happy to contribute to the Huaxia composer camp when necessary.
At the same time, he recommended Dong An, a composer under Tianxing Entertainment, to the production team as one of the backup composers for the Huaxia side.
The main reason Su Yu recommended Dong An was that Chu Ming had clearly stated he would not participate in this event, and the composer representing Huaxia for the debut was very likely to be Lin Feng.
Su Yu mused that instead of giving the opportunity to composers from other companies, it would be better to strive for more opportunities for talent cultivated by his own company, allowing Dong An to make an appearance on such a large stage and gain some recognition, which would undoubtedly be greatly beneficial for his growth and development.
What’s more, Dong An’s own standard and strength were indeed not to be underestimated.
In Su Yu’s opinion, Dong An already possessed the ability to compete with seniors like Lin Feng, Chu Ming, Chen Yufeng, and Bai Tian, who, though not in their prime, were still very strong.
Regarding Su Yu’s recommendation, Qian Jin and the relevant leaders naturally accepted it gladly.
After all, Dong An’s performance in the second half of last year was quite impressive, standing out among a group of rising stars, and his strength could be called top-notch.
Young people naturally have abundant creative energy, and in this regard, they are indeed incomparable to older generations of musicians.
Coupled with the extremely tight competition system of this variety show, Chris from the previous season directly withdrew due to excessive pressure midway through.
No one could guarantee that Lin Feng would last until the end. If Lin Feng encountered problems, would they have to frequently change composers like South Korea in the previous season? That would truly be a complete disgrace.
Upon receiving this news, Dong An was so excited he could hardly contain himself, instantly entering a state of preparation.
He secretly resolved to do his utmost to prepare more high-standard, high-quality songs before taking the stage, so as not to let down Su Yu’s trust and recommendation, and to bring honor to the Huaxia composer camp.
......
On the eve of the Spring Festival Gala, Su Yu’s schedule was packed and very busy.
The day after “the truman show” celebration party ended, he led a group of members from the Tianxing Entertainment Music Department to attend this year’s Huayin Award ceremony.
Recalling last year’s Huayin Award, although Su Yu narrowly missed the The King of Singers award, he broke several Huayin Award records with his outstanding talent, becoming the focus of attention.
And this time, Su Yu stepped onto the Huayin Award stage again with many dazzling halos, such as twelve consecutive new song chart championships, the youngest Ace Composer, and the Four Nations Concert overall champion, making it truly unimaginable how many awards he would win this time.
The Best Lyricist and Most Popular Male Singer awards that he regrettably missed last season seemed to be beckoning to him this season. Su Yu was very likely to become the first all-around musician in Huayin Award history to achieve a Grand Slam of both singer and behind-the-scenes awards by only participating in two seasons.
Because of this, the attention for this year’s Huayin Award ceremony reached an unprecedented height, and everyone looked forward to seeing what kind of brilliance Su Yu would create on this stage.
And Su Yu did not disappoint, being busy at the awards ceremony, frequently going on stage to receive awards, bringing home multiple heavyweight awards such as Best Lyrics, Best Composition, Best Arrangement, and Most Popular Male Singer.
At the same time, other singers from Tianxing Entertainment also reaped rich rewards.
SSR Girl Group won this year’s Best New Artist Award for their excellent performance, while Cool Fire Combination successfully took home the Best Group Award.
Han Jiangxue’s “wishing we last forever” stood out among many high-quality singles, winning the Best Single Award. The competition for this award was extremely fierce, as too many excellent songs were born last year. For “wishing we last forever” to win, perhaps the beauty of its lyrics and the profoundness of its artistic conception played a key role.
Zhang Xiaohan’s album “hidden wings” won the Best Album Award, and she herself, with this album and her splendid performance over the past year, took home the Huayin Award for Most Popular Female Singer.
The Best Album Producer Award was once again claimed by the experienced Li Dayue.
In addition, this year’s hidden major award, the Huayin Award, was also awarded to Su Yu without suspense, making countless musicians envious and marveling at Su Yu’s dominance in the music field.
At this grand Huayin Award ceremony, the members of the Tianxing Entertainment Music Department reaped a bountiful harvest, giving the impression of an annual meeting of the Tianxing Entertainment Music Department.
However, after Su Yu took home the final Huayin Award, he made an unexpected yet reasonable decision—announcing his withdrawal from future music awards.
This decision was undoubtedly good news for other musicians in the music industry, because as long as Su Yu participated in the awards, it would be incredibly difficult for them to stand out among the many awards.
But for netizens and Su Yu’s fans, Su Yu’s timely retreat seemed a bit too early.
They all expressed that Su Yu should at least participate in this year’s Golden Melody Awards and Golden Song Awards before withdrawing; being in such a hurry was truly hard to understand.
In their opinion, Su Yu had only achieved a Grand Slam at the Huayin Award so far; he should at least also win the Grand Slam at the Golden Melody Awards and Golden Song Awards to be truly complete.
However, Su Yu’s decision had already been made, and although his fans were reluctant, they were powerless to stop him.
......
Time flew by, and in a flash, it was January 30th. At 8 PM on New Year’s Eve, the Year of the Horse Spring Festival Gala, eagerly anticipated by people nationwide, officially began.
This year’s host lineup still continued with last year’s six, and the familiar faces made the audience feel especially warm.
After a festive New Year’s blessing, the first stage performance of the Year of the Horse Spring Festival Gala officially began.
The moment the three members of SSR Girl Group appeared on stage, the Spring Festival Gala’s bullet comments erupted like a surging tide.
