Entertaining Children

The seventh episode was broadcast the day before the recording of the ninth episode. From the appearance of articles and comments praising Xiao Yao to the appearance of other singer fans and netizens criticizing Xiao Yao, it also took a few days of accumulation and fermentation . Two days after returning to Shanghai after recording the show with Xiao Yao, Fang Yiran discovered that many articles and comments attacking Xiao Yao's performance in the "Singer" program suddenly appeared on the Internet, and immediately gave feedback to Xiao Yao. For those negative comments and articles on the Internet, Xiao Yao did not respond directly, but just made a request to the program group to change the song that had been sent to the program group for the next competition.

As far as the current situation is concerned, neither Xiao Siqi, Xiao Yao, nor the director team of "Singer" think it is necessary to make some formal responses. Although there are a lot of negative articles and comments attacking Xiao Yao on the Internet that seem scary, but after a closer look, these conclusions do not stand up to scrutiny. Even though the number of these negative comments was very high and dense, the phenomenon of one-sided criticism of Xiao Yao and the program group did not form in public opinion.

The program "Singer" has never said that the rules of the competition must be set in stone and cannot be modified. In the first two seasons, the program rules have also undergone certain modifications. For example, the kick-off competition is a newly added competition system and rules in the previous season. In the first season of "Singer", there is no kick-off singer at all. For the program group, as long as the fairness of the game is not affected, there is no problem in changing the rules. As for the so-called "outside tricks" that attacked Xiao Yao on the Internet, they didn't violate any rules of the program, and there was no need to make a special explanation and response for it.

"The rule that the program group is allowed to sing their own new songs has been confirmed to be changed during the preparation of this year's program. All singers participating in the program have been informed of the change of this rule before they are confirmed to participate. Xiao Yao can sing his own new song , other singers can also sing. What's unfair? Could it be that Xiao Yao can write songs, and it's wrong to write songs quickly?"

"Don't say that this rule is tailor-made for Xiao Yao. Xiao Yao is not the only singer who can write songs this season. Not to mention that Xiao Yao was notified earlier than other singers, so he wrote a bunch of songs in advance. That's it. He is a singer who is kicking out of the pavilion, can he be notified earlier than the singer? When did the program team not confirm the singer first, and then confirm the replacement singer and the singer who kicked off the pavilion?

"Although Xiao Yao never discloses his itinerary, as long as he has the heart, it is easy to introduce his itinerary for this year from his works and news. Starting from the New Year's Day in the Gregorian calendar, Xiao Yao participated in Donghai Satellite TV's New Year's Eve party, filmed MVs, and participated in the Spring Festival Gala. The "Ancient Poetry Conference" promises to take promotional photos for Tu Yiyuan, shoot static films, hold brand press conferences, go to France to participate in short film festivals, record quick books, and go to school in the middle, how much energy can he have in advance to participate in " "Singer" to write a song? How long in advance will the program team invite him to participate in "Singer"? Last year? Can the preparation period of "Singer" be that long?"

"It was said that Xiao Yao played "outside tricks". Does Hong Wei's asking the Matouqin band count as "outside tricks"? Does Liang Xueying's invitation to the top international harmony as accompaniment count as "outside tricks"? Does Cai Ruoqi's dancing count as "outside tricks"?" Out-of-the-box move"?"

"It is said that the program group is unprofessional, and the audio equipment is top-notch.

First-class stage lighting, first-class musicians and music director, how can you be more professional? Those who said that the voting audience was unprofessional were originally selected from the general audience who signed up online. No one said that the audience was professional in music. Besides, if you were a live audience, you promise that you won't be affected by the singer's fame? You will listen with your eyes covered, so that it is professional? "

These reasons are very simple, without the person involved speaking out, the rebuttals of Xiao Yao's fans on the Internet are enough to counter this trend of criticizing Xiao Yao.

Fans on the Internet were making a fuss, and all kinds of gossip entertainment media were naturally attracted and participated in it. However, the media also understand that the theories of Hei Xiaoyao are not very tenable. The essence of this matter is actually a fight between fans, so the media are only enthusiastically reprinting the opinions of various fans, and put this The discussion became more lively, but they themselves did not immediately express their position on one side, and most of the media did not go to Xiao Yao, the person involved, for an interview.

Seeing that the articles and comments of Hei Xiaoyao did not have the expected effect, and even the gossip media did not help them bring the rhythm to Hei Xiaoyao, those fans of Hei Xiaoyao's other singers were unwilling, and they continued to challenge Look at Xiao Yao's faults in the show.

Then, a new question about Xiao Yao was brought up by some people. Many people began to question Xiao Yao's purpose for participating in this program. Play the guitar for the manager in the program sideshow, then released a pure music album of guitar music, held a piano recital in the show, and then released another album of pure piano music, the time interval is not more than a week, this The timing is too accurate, right? You also openly hand out business cards to other singers on the show, are you here to sing in competitions, or are you here to advertise for free on the show? i wanna go to hell

Regarding this point, Xiao Yao and Xiao Siqi have no need to respond. Playing an instrument on a music show is perfectly normal and doesn't violate any of the show's rules. It is Xiao Yao's own skill to be able to release a music album, no matter how black he is, he can't get anything black. If netizens are arguing about this all over the Internet, it is simply that the sunspots came to help Xiao Yao sell those two music albums, and Xiao Siqi and Xiao Yao should be too happy.

Neither the media nor Xiao Yao's fans felt that bringing up the matter of Xiao Yao's music album would deal a blow to Xiao Yao, but what they didn't expect was that it was Xiao Yao's music album that elicited a The news that shocked the music world even spread from the entertainment news page to the social news page.

The cause of the incident stemmed from a post on the music section of a certain anti-piracy and plagiarism website. Because of the recent controversy about Xiao Yao on the Internet, especially the criticism that he participated in the show to advertise and sell albums, the sales of Xiao Yao's two music albums have indeed experienced explosive growth. This also shows that the number of people who heard Xiao Yao's two music albums suddenly increased a lot. And this post was to publicly accuse Xiao Yao of plagiarism.

"I am a pure music fan. I mostly listen to pure music and rarely listen to songs. But recently, I saw online discussions about a singer named Xiao Yao promoting his pure music album by participating in a program, so I bought it out of curiosity and listened to it. This It doesn't matter when I hear it, oh my god, I was shocked. I found out that three of his piano music albums were plagiarized! "Childhood Memories", "Daydream" and "Serenade" They are all works by American pianist Horn Burnie. The first two pieces are works of Horn Burnie ten years ago, and "Serenade" is his work three years ago, both of which have been performed publicly in concerts. Let me post a comparison of Bernie’s concert video and the audio of Xiao Yao’s album piano music, so that everyone can listen to whether they are exactly the same. I have seen a lot of music plagiarism, but most of them just copy a few bars and a short paragraph What, I copied the whole piece from beginning to end without changing the name of the piece. This is the first time I have seen it! Do you think that no one in China listens to the music of American pianists? I heard that the singer is not yet twenty years old , has already won the "Golden Disc Award" for the best creative newcomer, and is a music genius recognized by the Chinese music scene? To be honest, I am not surprised at all now, haha!"

Now is the time when the debate about Xiao Yao is the most intense on the Internet. As soon as this post mentioning Xiao Yao’s name came out, it was quickly discovered by netizens, and it was quickly reposted on Weibo, Tieba, major portal websites and mobile news The most viewed place for software etc.

"I'm going, it's exactly the same! Just copy the whole song, change the name and say it's my own? How is this plagiarism? It's clearly a robber!"

"What kind of creative genius? It turned out to be a copy of the public! No wonder I suddenly went to the United States as an exchange student for a year. I guess I went to the United States to copy songs. If you look again, maybe other songs or songs are copied from foreign things. Woolen cloth!"

"Whoever has the contact information of that American pianist, hurry up and send an email to notify! Wait for the Yankees to send Xiao Yao a letter from a human rights lawyer!"

"Xiao Yao's album is selling well, right? The compensation is probably not a small amount! Why do I feel happy now?"

"After this kind of plagiarism scandal, will "Singer" allow Xiao Yao to continue to participate? He should be asked to quit directly!"

"Actually, I still had a good impression of Xiao Yao. The top scorer in the college entrance examination can't be faked, and the ability to sing and play musical instruments should also be real! A young man who is already very good, better than most second-generation stars , if you want to release a music album, you can also release a performance album, why do you have to write your name and say that it is your own original? People are not satisfied, and they insist on giving themselves the title of creative genius, but this time it turned out to be It's because people's perception of him plummeted, and his fans turned black." Sheng Shi Ming Marriage, my husband of a cold ghost

"I don't know who posted that Xiao Yao plagiarized, Xiao Yao really plagiarized? Xiao Yao didn't come forward to say anything, why did everyone think that Xiao Yao plagiarized? What's the matter? Clear! Now because of this fan, it is not a real "pill", so let's go!"

"I'm just huh! He's a pure music listener, and he's not a fan of any singer. The evidence has been laid out. Can he deliberately frame Xiao Yao? Isn't it clear what's going on? Xiao Yao hasn't made a statement yet? What can he say? Apart from admitting to plagiarism, what else can he say? By the way, let’s despise again, a coward who dare not admit to plagiarism after being exposed! Is it really a "pill"? Xiao Yao really wants to play this time It's over!"

"What else is unclear? Could it be that a well-known pianist in the United States copied Xiao Yao's? The first two pieces were his works ten years ago. How old was Xiao Yao at that time? He was still in elementary school, and he had something for him to play the piano. Home copying?"

As soon as this post spread, the Internet was immediately filled with voices criticizing and mocking Xiao Yao. Even if the tone was a little softer, it was believed that Xiao Yao was plagiarizing, and the words were full of regret and anger. Its indisputable. Occasionally, a few fans of Xiao Yao would speak up, but they were quickly drowned out by voices of opposition and criticism.

Things have developed to this point, and the media have finally begun to express their stance. Although I don't know who the person who posted that post was, the evidence presented is convincing enough. Even if you are not a professional musician, you can still find that the songs are exactly the same. The performance video of the American musician posted in the post is not difficult to find on foreign music websites, and it is easy to prove that the video has not undergone additional audio processing.

The previous debates, to put it bluntly, were at best Xiao Yao’s reckless behavior within the scope of the rules, which was no different from what he played on "The Voice", except that his opponents at that time were all unknown amateurs Or the newcomers that the record company is going to support but haven't debuted yet, they don't have hardcore fans to come out to defend them and attack Xiao Yao. Most of the media did not go to the person involved, Xiao Yao, because they knew that with Xiao Yao's character and consistent behavior, those arguments would not attract the interest of Xiao Yao, who has never liked to be interviewed, to come forward to respond.

But the matter of plagiarism is different. It is related to Xiao Yao's reputation and character. Can Xiao Yao still bear to keep silent? Do you still want his image? Does his musical future still exist? If he just kept silent like this and carried this filth on his back, his whole life would be affected unimaginably.

Ever since, countless calls for interviews were made to Xiao Yao's manager Fang Yiran's external contact number, to Qi Jia's studio's PR department, and even to the mobile phones of Xiao Siqi, Ye Jiaying and Xiao Yao's close friends. However, no matter where the media reporters called, there was still no positive response for the time being.

In most people's minds, the Xiao family at this time must be nervous and discussing public relations countermeasures with the studio's public relations staff, but in fact, Xiao Siqi and Xiao Yao are relatively relaxed at the moment. When Xiao Yao put those three pieces into the album of piano music, he had already anticipated that this might happen.

Based on Xiao Yao's estimation of the sales trend of his two pure music albums, this kind of situation should not happen until the final of "Singer" at the earliest. The final of "Singer" was broadcast live, that is to say, there would be two weeks more preparation time before the final than other games, and at that time, he had more free time to deal with this matter.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yao's achievements and performance in "Singer" made some of his fans overjoyed, and made some remarks belittling other singers, which aroused dissatisfaction among fans of other singers, and formed a spat among fans on the Internet war. Xiao Yao has a good relationship with the singers on the show, knowing that the singer himself doesn't think the same way as those fans. These online saliva can't hurt him, and he didn't care much at first. But what he didn't expect was that someone would bring up his release of music album as a reason to blackmail him. As a result, the sales of his music album skyrocketed, and the accusation of plagiarism came so much earlier than expected.

But now that the matter has exploded, it is impossible not to deal with it. Not to mention that Fang Yiran's current mobile phone is almost blown up, even if it is to quiet the calls of relatives and friends, Xiao Yao has to take action.
