Chapter 166: Dragon Stick Singing Contest Part
"Asiba! Why do I feel like she alone can beat all of our singers?"
"It can't be the same person! They must have the same name. According to the introduction on Google, she debuted in the mid-1980s, so she must be at least 40 or 50 years old now. But if you look at her age now, she is only in her twenties."
"She must have had plastic surgery in our country! Our country is number one in the world in medical aesthetics. Smecta!"
"I can tell that the melody of this song is inspired by our traditional music. The clothes she wears also have elements of our Korean clothing. So, please return the song and clothes to us."
The Koreans are seriously westernized, and they worship their American daddy the most. This female singer from the Dragon Country has won three Grammy Awards from their American daddy. This makes them unable to refute at all, and they can only elevate themselves in other ways!
At this moment, the national television and Internet of Dragon Country were also broadcasting the Dragon Bang Concert live. Lou Jingyi's stunning appearance also made the netizens watching on the Internet sigh.
"Hasn't Lou Jingyi retired for more than a decade? Why is she performing on stage again? Once a world-class superstar like her opens her mouth, how can others sing?" This is an older netizen.
"Is this the leader of the Chinese music scene in our Dragon Country? She should be older than my mother, right? How come she is still so young?" The young netizen typed in confusion.
"This is cheating! Isn't Lou Jingyi an American? How can she represent Dragon Country to attend a concert? This is unfair to Korean Oppas and Unnis." A Korean-loving netizen also clamored.
"Which eye of yours saw that Lou Jingyi is American?" some netizens began to fight back.
"Hasn't she won three Grammy Awards and two Oscars? Isn't it possible that an American would win so many American awards?"
"As long as the music released in North America is good enough, it can be nominated for a Grammy Award. Do you understand?" an internet user explained to her.
"Fuck! I saw her on CCTV Spring Festival Gala when I was a kid. The song 'Qinghai-Tibet Plateau' is still popular today. It's so terrifying!" another netizen lamented.
"I have every one of the thirty albums she released in the mainland. I also have every album she released in Hong Kong! Are you jealous of me?" This person is a super fan of Lou Jingyi.
As Lou Jingyi stepped onto the stage of the Longbang Concert, netizens from both countries started discussing the topic extensively on their respective online forums, and the topic remained hot.
But the Longzhang Concert was not over yet. The Korean idol group TVXQ, which was known as the ceiling of boy bands, did not perform.
When Longguo host Shi Yi introduced the five-member boy band onto the stage, it could be seen from the solemn expressions on their faces that they were under tremendous pressure.
Lou Jingyi's song amazed the audience, leaving them mesmerized and leaving them with endless aftertaste. The five-member boy band, who were the finale of the show, suddenly became nervous.
As expected! Not long after the music of "I Believe" started playing, some of the five-member boy band started to make mistakes. The five members did not coordinate their dance moves well, and two of them almost bumped into each other.
When the singing started, some people were so nervous that they started singing out of tune. This greatly disappointed the Korean audience who had placed their hopes on them. They even booed!
Originally, they were going to perform a song called "The Way You Are" on stage, but they didn't have the confidence to go on stage, so they had to end the performance hastily.
This kind of blow to self-confidence is huge, and it takes time to recover. When the whole Longbang singing contest was over, the online forums of both countries were in an uproar again.
"Shame! This is a shame for our Korean country. I demand that that boy band come out and apologize!" someone shouted on a Korean forum.
"I don't think we can blame them. It's just that the female singer from Dragon Country is too powerful! She's simply a once-in-a-century talent!"
"That's right! I checked it out too! That girl named Lou Jingyi has released three English albums, certified by the Recording Industry Association of North America, and the total sales so far are 570 million copies. How can this be compared?"
"You missed something! She also has two piano albums released worldwide. The total sales have reached 250 million! She has released 30 albums in Dragon Country and more than a dozen in Hong Kong. It's hard to compare these results."
"She is also a person who can write lyrics, compose music and sing! She has also published several classic symphonies. I won't feel humiliated at all if I lose to someone like her."
"I also found out that when she was ten years old, she won the junior championship at the Leeds International Piano Competition in the UK. When she was seventeen, she won the youth championship at the Chopin International Piano Competition, and when she was twenty-two, she won the adult championship at the Chopin International Piano Competition. There is only one national treasure like this in Longguo, and this time, Longguo has taken out all the treasures."
"That's right, that's right. I think it's an honor to be able to perform on stage behind her. Smita!"
"...!"
On the Longguo music forum, netizens expressed their opinions and had a heated discussion on the Longbang Concert which just ended.
"I think this Longbang Concert is really a great honor! Didn't you see that the little Koreans all gave in in the end?"
"Overall, we are still suppressed by them. Lou Jingyi alone cannot save the entire Chinese music scene." Some people spoke the truth.
"Yes! Don't you think that the songs nowadays are not as good as those in the 1990s? Go listen to the Mandarin songs released by Lou Jingyi during that period. Every one of them is a classic."
"We don't lack good singers, but we are not good at original songs. To be honest, some songs are too rustic. No wonder some young people don't like to listen to them!"
"Lou Jingyi is bullying the weak! People like her shouldn't attend the Longbang Concert and destroy the friendship between the two countries."
"The one upstairs, get out of here!"
"...!"
Some people also posted clips of the just-concluded Longbang Concert on overseas music forums, especially Lou Jingyi's song "Left Hand Pointing to the Moon", whose singing difficulty, with a range spanning three octaves, also attracted a large number of music lovers from all over the world to discuss it.
“Although I didn’t understand what she was singing, her singing level was still as stable as it was more than a decade ago.”
"I am also a professional singer. I once tried to sing a passage with her. To be honest, this song is really difficult. I can't sing it!"
"She is a world-class singer who has won three Grammy Awards. How can you compare with her? Even though she has retired for more than ten years and has become a writer, she is still a singer!"
Suddenly, the speech of an overseas Mongolian attracted a lot of attention.
"Lou Jingyi is a plagiarist! She once plagiarized a famous Mongolian song called "Night in Ulaanbaatar". I put both songs on the music forum. Listen to them and see if they are the same. One is in Chinese and the other is in Mongolian."
This news made the music forum explode like a drop of water dropped into a hot oil pan.
Of course, there were also many people who helped Lou Jingyi to question others. "Do you know how many classic works Lou Jingyi has created? This song is only average among all her works. Would she risk damaging her reputation by plagiarizing a song that is not top-notch?"
"This song was created by the author of our country in 1985. If you don't believe me, you can check it out! Ulaanbaatar is the capital of our country, and Lou Jingyi has never been there. How could she write this song?" The visitor spoke with confidence, which forced many people to believe it.
But only ten minutes later, someone posted a screenshot and slapped him in the face.
"Look for yourself. This is Lou Jingyi's album released in 1984. The song you said was plagiarized was released on this album. She released the song album in 1984, but you didn't create it until 1985. Who plagiarized whom?"
"That's impossible! How could she write a song about our capital? She has never been there."
The visitor looked at the evidence and became a little angry and frustrated. But the more he did so, the more people laughed at him.
"According to you, if I create a work about the future, it means I have been to the future? If I write a song about the moon, it means I have been to the moon? This is simply a fallacy!"
There is no such thing as copyright registration for general text and music works. Whoever publishes it first is the original author. Perhaps Mongolia is too isolated, the original author did not know that Lou Jingyi had published it a year earlier than him, and he still pushed the song out step by step. As a result, it was a misunderstanding.
