From "I am a singer" in the first season of 20 13 to "The Year of Singer's Play" in 2020, this golden song entertainment program has reached its eighth year. During this period, the singer who impressed everyone asked himself that G.E.M., who became famous as a potential stock, was also one of the best.
In the early variety show "I am a singer", G.E.M. and Huang Qishan basically became "brand spokespersons" with soaring high notes, thus becoming popular. In addition, this variety show is often criticized for the singer's high-pitched discussion. But I have to admit, I am a singer turned G.E.M. fire, which is good at bass explosion, into "popular fried chicken". At the beginning, basically everyone can hum a few words of "Bubble in the Sun", but few people can sing the last bass.
Later, when everyone forgot G.E.M.'s total score in I am a singer, they remembered her name. What is remembered by everyone is also her "black history" that lasted for many years. Her previous enthusiasm in "A Year of Play" was shocking with her latest album. The theme song of the solo album "Skyscraper Zoo" has a strong sense of oppression, which is to tell everyone that trap's song has finally escaped the "kidnapping" of doing business. Over the years, every word of her original lyrics has been singing about herself.
At the age of fifteen, G.E.M. took part in a singing contest. With the songs written by her favorite brother and her best Cantonese, she took the lead in the exam. If you can't open your eyes to express your admiration, just be a sleeping princess, close your eyes and put the courage, shyness, hope and fear of a beautiful girl into the song.
Bole Xiang Ma recognized a good horse, and Zhang Dan, a businessman, took a fancy to G.E.M., but at that time she was also called Deng Shiying. Hummingbird Music signed a contract with her and changed her name. /kloc-at the age of 0/6, G.E.M. announced his fame and made his debut. Born into a musical family, G.E.M. felt that she could devote herself to the pursuit of perfection and love of songs. In her eyes, the signing of the contract is that she can finally make a good song wholeheartedly, do nothing but talk about idealization.
At that time, there was only one singer in Hummingbird Music, G.E.M., and she devoted all her planting to her. In view of the cultivation of "pressure", she wants to feel different psychological characteristics for better songs, study and train different singing skills abroad, and add a very heavy obligation to her love-diligence.
Innocent and little known, G.E.M. regards Hummingbird as his second home and Zhang Dan as his most trusted person. She thinks that she is not as helpless as a small sailboat, and regards hummingbirds as the solid backing and harbor of her life. In 2008, G.E.M. released her first latest album "G.E.M", which swept the original Hong Kong music industry's novice honor award, and her debut reached its peak.
Then, G.E.M., 2 1 year-old, held 10 concert tour in Hung Hom Gymnasium. As an adult, she has become the youngest and most popular female singer in Hong Kong. 20 14, G.E.M. was invited to participate in the second season of I am a singer. In an interview with a variety show, G.E.M. said that all companies have only one star, and her body sustains the luck of everyone in the company.
"A dozen friends bring home the bacon, and so on, all depends on how well I did in the exam." "I am a singer" opened the door to the domestic music scene for G.E.M., and hummingbirds also earned a lot of money. The name G.E.M. is a household name in China, attracting thousands of fans and becoming famous overnight. Basically, anyone's song list has a song "You Drunk Me" or "Bubble".
Hummingbirds saw the energy of this lucky tree and threatened to renew their contract with G.E.M. before the final, otherwise they would not be able to participate in the final. After signing the contract, it changed. Renewing the contract became kidnapping, and G.E.M. became a "product" whose profit was threatened. But it's true that the girl is aiming at hummingbirds. Even if she is alone, she has not forgotten her great kindness, but Zhang Dan's mentality has never been worthy of G.E.M.'s investment.
20/kloc-in April, 2005, G.E.M. and the column group "I am a singer" clashed in song selection at the biennial summit meeting. The film director Hong Tao even voiced on Sina Weibo: If you don't change the song, change someone else!
"I am a singer" takes cover songs as the theme style. In order to better the actual effect of variety shows, most singers said that they would change to cover songs, but at that time, Zhang Dan resolutely insisted on using the advantages of variety shows to plan G.E.M.'s latest songs: "Everyone's variety shows are the key, so change others!"
Hummingbird's mentality makes the column group hate it. In order to better let G.E.M. promote and plan the latest songs while the iron is hot, they almost ruined this new star. The aura of youth and fame makes negative messages very powerful. All netizens are scolding G.E.M. for abandoning chess, which is not upside down. In the year when G.E.M. was scolded, there was no pronunciation, and he was left alone. Things have finally changed dramatically, or Hong Tao, the director of I am a singer, made a statement for G.E.M. in an interview.
Although the column group "I am a singer" also made some mistakes, the diligent and sunny girl didn't make any mistakes at all. Zhang Dan, who is mainly engaged in business, pushed G.E.M., who is at the peak of his career, off the whirlpool of public opinion. After years of pushing like this, she pushed her luck. I don't know when it started, but it gradually became the symbol of G.E.M., and it was also her "asset" ridiculed by the group.
In order to reduce the cost better, G.E.M.'s brand image designer turned out to be Zhang Dan's lover. She has a cheerful mental state and doesn't seem to care about superficial criticism or even make fun of herself. Her standard is that other external items can be distributed by the company as long as it does not hinder singing. But don't forget that she is not only a singer, but also a girl who pursues beauty.
Except for the disapproval of the media and public relations, trivial matters are not comprehensive, and greedy hummingbirds will gradually stop caring for G.E.M.'s "feathers". Third-rate Shang Yan followed one after another, and WeChat business agents, new buildings and large-scale shopping mall celebrations followed. It seems that G.E.M. will no longer be the key, and the word "G.E.M." is more valuable.
In the case that G.E.M. knows nothing about lovers, hummingbird music consumes the use value of stars in commercial performances in the name of touring. There are only four songs, but they sold the price of the tour. Everyone began to criticize G.E.M., and fans became passers-by. Finally, G.E.M.'s way of knowing the truth is actually based on the feedback from fans.
In 20 18, G.E.M. became the "only invited guest in the Chinese music scene" at the award ceremony of NASA, but the company basically did not have any publicity and planning, and even some netizens revealed that only a fashion stylist accompanied G.E.M. at that time. It seems that as long as it is not the theme activity of making money, the company turns a deaf ear.
When dealing with fans, she should look at people with happy eyes, send people a smile and transmit kinetic energy. She thinks that as long as she sings well, she can reach out to fans and companies. Repeated squeezing made her reluctant to forget but couldn't make a sound. As a bundled money-making tool, the company will no longer pay attention to her intentions. The girl was so exploited that she almost destroyed her self-confidence. It is not wrong to insist on commercialization, but people are not products, and she can't live without you.
Finally, when the contract expired in 20 19, G.E.M. left in despair. In front of the eyes of angels and demons, she never learned to let go of her humanity and moral bottom line. In the past two years, G.E.M., who basically has no media public relations support except songs, has climbed to the top of the pyramid of pop music with his talent and diligence.
Before announcing the termination of the contract, Hummingbird has assigned eight tour groups. G.E.M. could have announced the cancellation of the tour to the fans, but in order to better prevent everyone from chilling, even though she had exposed the lie, she decided to hold it again. But unexpectedly, the first concert tour after the termination of the contract was delayed for two hours due to "technical problems", and the staff prevented G.E.M. from taking the stage.
She was left alone backstage to manage. She immediately wrote an apology to Sina Weibo and turned on the live broadcast to comfort her fans. The first sentence on the stage was "I'm sorry". After the termination of the contract, a safety accident occurred at the first site. Everyone knew the cause and effect of the incident tacitly, but she cultivated or chose herself to pay for the mistakes of others.
In the past, the harbor was getting darker and darker, and she was actually forced to be more and more lonely, because the tearful girl at the counter is now on her own. Dealing with fans who really love him, she is still like a child, and these grievances and helplessness will turn into tears. Finally, a crying trip was her real farewell to the past.
Now, I regret not only the well-known clean hummingbird music, but also G.E.M She regrets that her exclusive trust left her scars. Hummingbird's worst thing is to apply for a registered trademark logo for G.E.M.'s name, knowing that it will tear her face, but in order to better obtain the final rights and interests, she does not hesitate to bully customers and take other people's names and copyrights as her own.
The price of being bound by commercial services for many years is actually to sing that one's own work is infringing, and even one's own name is not clear. Now that G.E.M. has woken up, she can't easily sob any more. It took her twelve years to finish the heaviest lesson on the road of life. After years of resentment, she did not concentrate on the war of words, but turned her sadness into motivation.
With her own strength and strength, she is angry, bright and perfect at this time. I have experienced hard work, success, sadness, injustice and chills. Only by looking back can we understand how valuable it was to sing for better and simpler love 12 years ago.
Even if you are young and promising, every pronunciation is weak and shy. G.E.M. made it clear that she had been running around in this "skyscraper". Now, she finally has the courage to open the locked room, and she wants to interpret her understanding of songs in her own way.
China singers are still full of vigor and vitality, but what is criticized is the commercialization of writing and the aestheticization of Chinese fast food. Expressiveness and commercialization are not opposites. As an ordinary person, her pronunciation is weak when dealing with the injustice of "power kidnapping", but as a singer, every sentence in her songs is about herself.
I thought "Sleeping Princess" would return to the starting point and sing her thoughts in Cantonese again, but as the song often says, "Children are forced to grow up, and frightened eyes are forced to enlarge". She won't be the little princess who really prefers to sleep that day. She was finally forced to grow up. what do you think?
