Zhang Yifan's two new songs were easily beaten by "Dong Feng Po" on the list.

For this result, in the eyes of industry insiders, it is not worth discussing at all.

"Dong Feng Po" and "Play" and "U R Bad Girl" were released at about the same time, otherwise no one would compare these songs together.

Too bullying!

But Zhang Yifan's fans are still very determined, and they all expressed their support for their idol as always.

After trying to launch the "reclaim the first place on the new song list" event to no avail, many of Zhang Yifan's fans expressed their support on Weibo.

"I don't know why, everyone is saying that the song on the first list is good, but I just can't appreciate it."

"Same, I think so too."

"That's right, it's obviously Zhang Yifan's two songs that are more international."

"Zhang Yifan's two songs are all in English and in singing and dancing style, in fact, this comparison is not fair at all."

"In addition to the domestic new song chart, the two songs "U R Bad Girl" also made it to the US B chart! This is the first Chinese singer to do it!"

"It's good for everyone to know that our goal is the whole world! Love.jpg."

All of a sudden, some of Zhang Yifan's fans became the most diligent group to criticize Ye Zhiqiu.

Huahai Entertainment naturally noticed this kind of online remarks.

After all, these voices are a minority and can't cause much trouble, but Huahai Entertainment still reminded Ye Zhiqiu not to care too much.

Ye Zhiqiu certainly didn't care.

Adults should understand one thing, you can't please everyone.

There will always be some groups who think that the moon is rounder in foreign countries, and that international style must be good, and they are eager to get close to them and seek recognition from others.

Ye Zhiqiu thinks that this is unnecessary, and recognition and respect are based on strength. Compared with seeking some kind of recognition, he prefers to conquer.

After the first episode of "Singer" ended, Ye Zhiqiu returned to Huahai City in an extremely low-key manner.

However, as the topic of "Chinese style" on the Internet intensified, he couldn't hide anymore.

In Huahai Entertainment Building, Song Mei found Ye Zhiqiu in the recording studio and reluctantly said that she still had to hold a simple press conference.

Since the release of "Dongfeng Po", the number of reporters stationed at the door of Hai Entertainment Building has been more than ten times the usual number, which has had a great impact on the company.

Others also need to eat, and it is not good to ignore them like this. It is better to hold a press conference to satisfy them at one time.

So, Ye Zhiqiu was "forced to open business" again.

The temporary press conference was set up directly in the lobby of Huahai Entertainment Building, and hundreds of people from dozens of media outlets poured in at once.

When Ye Zhiqiu appeared, the scene suddenly exploded, and the sound of flashes and photos kept ringing.

In Huahai Entertainment's own territory, of course, the media will not be allowed to do whatever they want.

Facing dozens of media, of course, it is impossible for each media to have the opportunity to ask questions. Huahai Entertainment will select some relatively familiar and experienced media to ask questions.

The first reporter who was named was excited and asked a long-prepared question.

"Mr. Ye Zhiqiu, what style of song are you going to sing in the next issue of "Singer"?!"

"Chinese style."

Ye Zhiqiu answered without hesitation.

Sure enough! Everyone was excited, and the reporter who asked the question hurriedly asked: "Is it convenient to reveal the name of the song?"

"Not convenient."

"..." Everyone didn't care.

"Many creators and singers have said that "Dongfeng Po" is a pioneering work. What do you think of this praise!?"

"I think they are right."

Everyone's face was choked, and they were really not modest at all.

Next, the questions continued, and Ye Zhiqiu answered more than ten questions in a very concise manner. The reporters were very happy to have a script to write when they returned.

However, when the press conference was about to end, something unexpected happened.

A reporter stood up and said loudly: "Mr. Ye Zhiqiu, your "Dongfeng Po" uses a lot of national instruments. There are criticisms online that it is too national and difficult for the mainstream foreign music circle to appreciate! What do you think about this?!"

After this question fell, the whole audience was in an uproar.

This question is very sharp!

However, everyone's eyes lit up at once, and they all waited for Ye Zhiqiu's answer.

The emergence of a new thing is always accompanied by praise and doubt.

The Huahai Entertainment staff member who was responsible for asking questions and calling out names turned black, and was about to remind Ye Zhiqiu that there was no need to answer.

Unexpectedly, Ye Zhiqiu's face did not change, and he asked back directly.

"Why do they appreciate it?"

The reporter who asked the question was stunned and immediately replied: "After all, the European and American music circles are now the mainstream, and many pop music stylesThe style originated from the other party, and we are in the process of catching up..."

"I think you are wrong." Ye Zhiqiu said directly, "I don't mean to deny a certain musical style."

"But I think we can learn from a certain style and take its essence, but we should not blindly imitate it."

"For example, the musical form of rap originally originated in poor black communities. Others sang it to express their anger at the current social situation, but the cultural atmosphere and social background of different countries are very different."

"If a Chinese singer copies the entire set of rap filled with swear words, violence and other elements in order to cater to the so-called international style, wouldn't that be funny?"

"Music style and form are carriers, and the connotation of the song is the foundation. Since we have our own national culture, why don't we sing what belongs to us?"

"If we blindly cater to others, we will only lose ourselves in the end. The traditional culture belonging to our nation needs to be inherited, innovated and carried forward. This is our own cultural confidence. "

Speaking of this, Ye Zhiqiu paused, looked around at the reporters who were either deep in thought, excited, or just taking pictures of him, and said the last sentence.

"Only the national is the world."

After the voice fell, the audience was silent for a long time, and then thunderous applause broke out.

Behind the reporters, Li Wenrui, Song Mei, and several senior executives including music director Chen Haitao were present.

"The national is the world..." Chen Haitao took a deep breath and sighed: "Well said."

"Our Chinese civilization has 5,000 years, and there are too many good things. But no matter how good something is, it must be innovated and developed with the times."

"At least on the road of music, I think the 'Chinese style' has done it. "

Li Wenrui nodded and said nothing.

Now he only had one feeling, that the cooperation between Huahai Entertainment and Ye Zhiqiu was definitely the most correct thing he did.

After this question, the reporter who only wanted to dig up big news sat down in shame and was embarrassed to ask more questions.

However, he got what he wanted.

After the report of the press conference that day was issued, Ye Zhiqiu's last sentence set off a storm.
