After binding the entertainment system, she made countless top stars

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Wantang and Lu Wanxing finally tried out a makeup look that satisfied themselves and Xu Weiming as well.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Chang Yun arranged Fang Shuyao and her group and successfully reunited with the siblings.

When he came, he went to a nearby hotel and packed a table of food.

As the thermal boxes were opened one by one, the temporary lounge where they were staying was suddenly filled with the delicious smell of food.

This made Xu Weiming, who originally wanted to go out for dinner, stop in his tracks.

In the moment he was stunned, Chang Yun stuffed a pair of chopsticks into his hands.

"Come, Teacher Xu, come and eat with us. I have prepared your portion as well."

"I just bought the insulated box and asked the hotel staff to help wash it. The hotel has good service. I went there after seeing the recommendation online. They said the food tasted good too."

"It's just too far from here. It's cold now. If it gets cold, it won't taste good."

Chang Yun tends to be a bit nagging when he speaks.

But he didn't focus his words on Xu Weiming, so the latter sat down naturally.

"Wan Tang likes beef, and Wan Xing likes spareribs. Why don't you both try these two dishes and see how they taste?"

"It's delicious." The two answered almost in unison.

"Where's Teacher Xu? I came in such a hurry that I forgot to ask Teacher Xu what she wanted to eat..."

"I don't mind. I'm not picky about food." Xu Weiming picked up the closest dish with chopsticks and put it in his mouth. "Hmm, this tastes a bit familiar. Which hotel did Assistant Chang buy it from?"

Chang Yun mentioned the name of the hotel.

It is a star hotel.

Xu Wei nodded in understanding: "That restaurant! I've been there with Shen Qingzhu a few times before, and the food is really good. As expected of Assistant Chang, you have good taste."

"Really?" Chang Yun laughed, "I just looked up some travel guides on the way."

Xu Weiming has a bad attitude at work and can be described as harsh, but if he wants to please someone in normal times, it is easy for him to do so.

After a while, the two started chatting about the attractions in Tamagawa City, as well as delicious restaurants and hotels.

During this time, Chang Yun did not forget to urge the siblings to eat quickly.

"The dresses are all quite fitted. If we don't finish eating early, today's dinner will be postponed until after the awards ceremony."

Xu Weiming quite agrees with this.

6:30 p.m.

The music festival that has attracted the attention of three continents is about to begin.

Tamagawa City, which is also near the largest theater in Kitasu, has already become lively.

Countless reporters and fans flocked from all over the three continents, blocking the nearby streets.

Fortunately, as the central city of Kitasu, Tamagawa City has always had convenient transportation. On the eve of the music festival, online and offline notifications and advice were issued to citizens to take detours.

So at this moment, the five surrounding streets are crowded with people who are here to chase stars, take photos, or join in the fun.

This music festival is very special.

What’s special is that it is jointly held by three continents.

It is also special in that the scale is larger than those previously held in various continents.

It is also special in the selection criteria of the awards.

To this end, the Music Association has already issued a relevant notice.

In previous award ceremonies, award selection was basically based on various data.

That is to say, it is very simple and crude to compare the songs of the same period with the download volume, playback volume, popularity, etc. of a certain song. The one with the best data is the award winner.

Although these judging criteria do not guarantee a song will win an award 80%, they are at least %.

This is equivalent to the number of song downloads, popularity, etc., which account for more than 80% of the reasons for the awards.

So this time, after the merger and reorganization, the Three Continents Association revised the award criteria.

There are many reasons.

One is the worry that some singers or songwriters may have too many fans.

The more fans you have, the more people will support you without thinking.

No matter what kind of songs these singers and songwriters release, there will be a lot of supporters.

This is unfair to others, especially those who are less famous but have high-quality songs.

The second reason is that some songs are of unpopular styles, or after the songs are released, they lack marketing methods and are directly buried.

Although such a song is unlikely to win the most popular award, it may win awards such as Best Composition or Best Lyrics, which should place more emphasis on the quality of the song.

Based on these two points, the association re-established the award criteria for this ceremony.

Data such as download volume and popularity only account for 40% of the evaluation indicators.

Of the remaining 60%, 10% were recommended by several intelligent AIs, and the other 50% were decided by voting among singers and composers of grade A and above in the three continents.

Among them, the votes for S-level singers and composers will be doubled.

Such award criteria have been recognized by most people.

For the spectators, this is better than just looking at the data.

However, once the award rules changed, some people felt that the association was targeting Lu Wantang.

For no other reason

——Looking at the music charts throughout the past year, even though North Continent was only connected to Southeast Continent in September, the most popular musician was still Zigui.

Chang Yun, who was on his way to the music festival venue, was reading about the existing public opinion on the Internet.

“Everyone in the comments section is saying that if the music festival’s award criteria were still based on song popularity, we would have won a lot of awards this year.”

Lu Wanxing was playing games and took the time to look up:

"So, those people think that if the evaluation criteria change, my sister won't be able to get the award?"

"That's right." Chang Yun nodded. "Internal voting accounted for 50% of the vote, and most of the people who participated in the vote were from Beizhou."

"Fans are guessing that the singers and songwriters in Beizhou are not necessarily so unfaithful."

"That's not necessarily true." Lu Wanxing said without raising his head, "If they do this for every award, then this music festival will definitely not be able to continue."

The authority of an award is actually more important than anything else.

Once credibility is lost, it will be meaningless for anyone to win any awards in the future.

Because everyone thinks that if you use backdoors you will definitely win the award, and there is nothing to brag about.

"That's right. They can't possibly block every award and prevent Wan Tang from taking it...but Wan Tang will probably lose several awards."

Chang Yun turned to look at the person who was glancing out the window, "Wantang, what do you think?"

"Me?" Lu Wantang recalled the tasks Liuliu had issued as usual, "I care more about this year's Grand Slam trophy. Everything else is just icing on the cake."

As long as there is a grand slam, the company can start film projects.

Chang Yun clapped his hands, "That's right, even if they don't give any awards, they can't just ignore the Grand Slam Achievement Award."

"Even if those people from Northern Continent say that they only communicated with each other and merged the lists in September, so what? Didn't Wan Tang win the first Grand Slam in Northern Continent?!"

When he thought of this, all Chang Yun’s resentment towards the award selection of the ceremony disappeared.

After just a short while, the speed of the car in which the people were riding gradually slowed down.

Apparently they were close to the venue.
