Chapter 140 Best Lyricist

As soon as the two hosts finished speaking, the stage lights suddenly flashed, and then a group of dancers in gorgeous costumes took to the stage.

This is an opening dance prepared by the organizers to liven up the atmosphere.

The opening dance quickly ended, and hosts Xiao Sa and Nig returned to the stage: "We've just enjoyed a wonderful performance, so let's announce tonight's first award, the 'Best Lyricist of the Year' award."

Nig: "There are five outstanding creators nominated for this year's 'Best Lyricist of the Year' award. The first is Li Yueran, whose work 'Light of the Stars' depicts the persistent pursuit of dreams with delicate strokes and profound emotional expression."

"The second is Zhang Yixuan, whose work 'Traces of Time' uses poetic language to depict the passage of time and insights into life."

"The third is Lin Qing'er, whose 'Brilliant Dream' is full of love and longing for life."

"The fourth is Wang Yucheng, whose work 'Journey of Chasing Dreams' inspires people to move forward bravely."

"The last one, and also the most anticipated, is Xiao Qingfeng. His three works, 'Blue and White Porcelain,' 'East Wind Breaks,' and 'Under the Sea,' have captivated countless listeners with their beautiful imagery, moving melodies, and profound connotations."

Xiao Sa took the lead and said, "Yes, you heard right. Teacher Xiao Qingfeng had three songs shortlisted. But what you don't know is that if 'Wanjiang' hadn't been collected by the National Concert Hall and couldn't participate in the selection, then Teacher Xiao would have had four songs shortlisted."

As soon as the host finished speaking, the audience was thrilled, with cheers and screams erupting one after another.

Some people stood up, waving their glow sticks and shouting Xiao Qingfeng's name.

Some people were so excited that their faces turned red, and they discussed Xiao Qingfeng's works enthusiastically with their companions; others had a look of admiration in their eyes, as if they were witnessing the musical legend created by their idol.

In the live stream, Xiao Qingfeng's fans were frantically spamming the chat with comments.

"Xiao Qingfeng is amazing! Three songs nominated, well-deserved!"

"I hope Mr. Xiao wins this award; his lyrics are works of art!"

"I love every single one of his songs, 'Blue and White Porcelain,' 'East Wind Breaks,' and 'Under the Sea.' Xiao Qingfeng is a treasure in the Chinese music scene!"

"If 'Wanjiang' could also participate in the selection, then Teacher Xiao would definitely be invincible."

Netizens also joined the discussion. "Xiao Qingfeng's skills are indeed impressive, and the quality of his work is extremely high."

"I have to admire him; his lyrics always touch people's hearts."

"I hope he can maintain this level of creative output and bring more excellent works to the Chinese music scene."

"Xiao Qingfeng truly stood out from the crowd at this music awards ceremony!"

The barrage of comments surged like a tide, and the entire live stream was filled with praise and anticipation for Xiao Qingfeng.

Singers or lyricists who are nominated in the past are usually extremely excited, after all, they are just one step away from the real trophy, and who can be sure that it won't be them?

However, the other four people were not excited at all; instead, they felt somewhat bitter. They knew perfectly well whether the lyrics were good or bad, and after seeing Xiao Qingfeng's "Blue and White Porcelain" nominated, they completely gave up the idea of ​​winning.

We can't beat them, we really can't beat them!

Xiao Sa: "Alright, the exciting moment has arrived. Now let's invite the two leaders from the organizer to the stage to announce the winner of the 'Best Lyricist of the Year' award."

Nig: "That's right, everyone is eager to know who will win this award."

Two leaders from the organizing committee walked onto the stage with smiles on their faces. One of them picked up the microphone and announced, "After careful evaluation by the judges, the winner of this year's 'Best Lyricist of the Year' award is—Xiao Qingfeng!"

Thunderous applause and cheers erupted from the audience.

The spotlight focused on Xiao Qingfeng in the audience, who calmly walked onto the podium under everyone's gaze.

Xiao Qingfeng wore a simple yet elegant black suit, exuding confidence and composure.

Xiao Sa handed the trophy to Xiao Qingfeng, and Nig handed him the microphone.

Xiao Qingfeng cleared his throat and began his acceptance speech.

"Respected leaders and dear friends, I am incredibly excited to stand here at this moment. First of all, I must give myself a big thumbs up. I am proud of my perseverance and hard work on my creative path. I feel very fortunate and proud to have created works such as 'Blue and White Porcelain,' 'East Wind Breaks,' and 'Under the Sea.'"

"Of course, this honor is inseparable from the audience's love. Thank you for liking my songs."

"Secondly, it wouldn't have been possible without the strong support and meticulous preparation from the organizers. Thank you for building such a wonderful stage for the Chinese music scene, giving us music creators the opportunity to showcase our talents."

"I would also like to thank all the judges for their professionalism and fairness. Your recognition is a great encouragement to me. Only a fair selection process can create a healthy environment for the development of the Chinese music scene and allow more young singers to see their dreams come true."

"Speaking of the Chinese music scene, I have high expectations. I hope we can continue to inherit and promote the charm of Chinese music, and bring forth more excellent works. I believe that as long as every music creator puts their heart into their work and expresses their true feelings, the Chinese music scene will surely become more prosperous. I will also continue to work hard to contribute more and better works to the Chinese music scene. Thank you again!"

After Xiao Qingfeng finished his acceptance speech, the audience erupted in enthusiastic applause once again.

Sasha and Nig also congratulated him.

The music awards ceremony then continued, with everyone eagerly anticipating the announcement of the next exciting award.

Xiao Sa: "We just witnessed the announcement of the 'Best Lyricist of the Year' award. Xiao Qingfeng's wonderful acceptance speech made us feel his love and dedication to music. Now, let's turn our attention to another important award - the 'Best Composer of the Year' award."

Nig: "That's right, composition is the soul of music, and every moving melody can evoke the deepest emotions in our hearts. Next, let's take a look at the five outstanding composers who have been nominated for this year's 'Composer of the Year' award."

"The first one is Zhao Yuxuan, whose work 'Light of Dreams' expresses his aspirations for the future with its stirring melody."

"The second is Su Yao, whose work 'River of Memories' tells a story of the past with a soothing melody."

"The third is Lin Hao, whose work 'Song of Hope' has a vibrant rhythm that inspires people to move forward bravely."

"The fourth is Chen Yue, whose work 'Dance of the Stars' has a dreamlike melody that seems to take us into the vast starry sky."

"The last one is Xiao Qingfeng. His three works, 'In the Name of the Father,' 'Blue and White Porcelain,' and 'If Love Has a Destiny,' are all different in style but have their own unique charm. Some are grand and majestic, some are beautiful and elegant, and some are deeply moving."

Xiao Sa: "Who will win this award? Let's wait and see."
