Chapter 276 Full of Stamina

The live broadcast didn't last long. Luo Quan turned off the live broadcast after arriving in the city center.

Yuzhou is neither too small nor too big. Luoquan is afraid that if it is open for too long, fans will come to visit.

After arriving in the city center, Luo Quan first took the light rail and then transferred to a taxi, and arrived at his grandparents' house.

The two elders live in a residential building in an old-fashioned community, on the third floor, with two bedrooms and one living room.

In her childhood memories, she and her mother slept in one room, and her grandparents slept in the same room.

Although it is a bit crowded, the life is quite warm, not to mention that Wen Xia and his mother live across the door, and the two families usually live like one family.

However, Wen Xia's mother had already moved away two years ago. Wen Xia had already made a lot of money in South Korea and soon bought her mother a modern three-bedroom apartment in a better area.

When Luo Quan had a video call with his grandparents, he also said that he would change their apartment to a new apartment to improve their quality of life.

However, he was directly rejected by the second elder. The reasons include waste of money, lack of acquaintances, and inconvenience.

In fact, my parents mentioned this before when they returned to Yuzhou, but they were rejected with the same question and reason.

So no one mentioned this matter anymore. Considering that my parents were reluctant to spend the money to go home, my parents arranged for people to send some supplements and clothes to the family every once in a while.

Luo Quan didn't tell his grandparents when he returned home this time. He knocked on the door and a white-haired old lady wearing glasses came out.

"Ouch, Xiaoquan!" Although they had only met Luo Quan once or twice on the phone in the past few years, grandma still recognized Luo Quan immediately.

"Grandma." Luo Quan responded with a smile and dragged his luggage inside.

"No need to change your shoes, just come in like this." Grandma Luo Quan smiled broadly and looked a little rich.

"Grandma, you have gained weight over the years." Luo Quan sat on the sofa and smiled.

Grandma complained: "Not yet your parents, but they have been sending food to home since last year. The shelf life is still short. If you don't eat it, it will expire. Your grandpa and I feel like celebrating the New Year every day."

"That's for your own good, but you should exercise more. By the way, where is grandpa?"

"He was playing chess in the park. He should probably be back by now." As soon as grandma finished speaking, there was movement outside the door. It was grandpa pushing the door open:

"Why isn't this door closed?"

Only then did grandma realize that she had left the door open: "Oh, Xiaoquan is back. I forgot about it when I was so happy."

"Xiaoquan is back?" Grandpa Luo Quan suddenly raised his head and smiled when he saw Luo Quan on the sofa: "When did you come back? Why didn't you tell me in advance?"

Luo Quan said with a smile: "I just arrived, nothing happened, so I went back to Yuzhou to escape the summer heat."

"Going back to Yuzhou to escape the summer heat?" Grandpa showed a puzzled expression, "Your grandma and I were still thinking about whether to go to Shuzhou to escape the summer heat. Why don't you go back to your hometown to escape the summer heat?"

Luo Quan explained: "The main reason is that I am tired of staying in the capital and want to change my stay for two days."

"I heard your mother said that she stopped studying at the University of Tokyo and returned to China to study?" Luo Quan's grandparents are both old intellectuals, and they still attach great importance to their granddaughter's studies.

According to the second elder's opinion, with her granddaughter's brain as smart as hers, wouldn't it be as easy to get into Tsinghua University and Peking University as if she were just looking at the lines on the palm of her hand? I have to go to Japan to study at Tokyo University. Is the one abroad better than the one in China?

"I am an exchange student and will study at Shokai University of Arts for one year. Whether I stay or return to Tokyo depends on the situation."

"Whether you're doing art, it's better to find a job than studying languages." Grandpa Luo Quan nodded, "It just so happened that your grandma bought meat today, and I'll make your favorite fish-flavored shredded pork for you tonight!"

"Okay." Luo Quan responded crisply.

While grandma was preparing dinner, Luo Quan and grandpa also talked about many things in Tokyo, including study and extracurricular life.

When they learned that their granddaughter had become an internationally famous female singer, both elders seemed a little surprised.

Before, the two elders only knew that Luo Quan was singing, and it seemed to be pretty good. However, within a few months, he had already become internationally famous, and his speed was so fast that no one could predict it.

After dinner in the evening, Luo Quan chatted with his grandparents for a while and then went out to find a hotel.

The old man originally wanted to let her stay at home, but because she usually had to live broadcast or record songs, it would easily disturb their rest, so he didn't stay.

Although Luo Quan is frugal, she has never been stingy in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation. She will definitely live in the best place if possible.

Taking a taxi to a five-star hotel in the city center, Luo Quan opened a presidential suite and paid one and a half months' rent in advance.

She basically spent the next period of time here.

When checking into the room, she handed her ID card to the receptionist at the front desk and was recognized.

Although she was being received by a star-rated hotel, she was still as excited and shy as an ordinary star-chasing girl in front of her idol.

After booking a room for Luo Quan, she also volunteered to carry her luggage, which made the hotel waiter next to her dumbfounded.

Luo Quan accepted the kindness, but there was only one suitcase in total, and there weren't many things in it. Plus there was an elevator, so there was no trouble for others.

Compared with the presidential suites in Beijing, there is still a gap between the presidential suites in Yuzhou. Of course, the price is also different.

If it were the presidential suite in the capital, she would really be reluctant to stay there for so long.

After putting down his luggage, Luo Quan posted a message:

"Now I have arrived at the hotel. I took a look just now. There is a desktop in the room, but I don't know how the configuration is yet. I will buy some props for the live broadcast later. I will give you the correct information during this period. It’s a live broadcast!”

Speaking of which, Luo Quan is probably one of the simplest people in the live broadcast industry. She only has a mobile phone, and her fans have asked her to update her equipment a long time ago.

However, Luo Quan was quite busy at the time and had business matters both at home and abroad, so he did not deliberately prepare the equipment for the live broadcast.

But now that she has to stay in Yuzhou for more than a month, she can concentrate on live broadcasting for fans for a while now that she has nothing to do.

In fact, for her, there are not many things that she needs to use for live broadcasts. They are just a clearer camera, a better quality microphone, and other special props for female anchors such as beauty cameras, lighting boards, and sound cards. She does not need them. .

When Luo Quan placed an order for live broadcast props, a question related to her once again appeared on Zhihu's hot list.

Because videos posted by Station B need to be reviewed, most news messages are delayed, so this is also one of the platforms with the slowest news acceptance among China’s mainstream apps.

When there is a major international event, Zhihu and Weibo are always the first to respond.

And this time the question is: What do you think of "The Top 100 Greatest Songs of the New Century" being selected into the song list?

This list actually started to warm up last year, and the popularity has not been low. However, if it was just a list, it would not have more than 20 million hits all of a sudden.

Mainly Luo Quan's songs were selected, and there were quite a few selected.

As soon as the question was raised, the responders immediately flocked in. For such a happy event, everyone responded with great enthusiasm:

“I won’t go into details about the status and credibility of Boulder magazine in the world music circle. After all, this is a music magazine that has been ranked number one in the world for decades.

In fact, "The Rock" magazine has already done a similar list at the beginning of this century, but it only selected the great songs, albums and singers of the last century.

The last century was an era of explosion of various types of modern music. There were too many founders and creators in that era. No matter how hard these singers of this century work, they are based on their foundations. They are successors, but not pioneers. By.

Therefore, in terms of status, there are almost no singers in this century who can compare with the singers in the last century. Therefore, the list is a kind of medal and a kind of recognition, but it may be a bit unfamiliar to the general public.

But "The Rock" magazine obviously knows this, so it announced last year that it would select the Top 100 greatest songs of this century.

Although less than one-fifth of this century has passed, the list itself is not fixed and will continue to be screened and eliminated.

For singers in this century, the meaning of this list is definitely countless times more important than any B list. If you can be on the list, it is no less than winning a Grammy, or even better!

As far as I know, all the good singers ranked abroad are paying close attention to this list. In the past year, the level of Western pop music has also improved to a visible extent. The most intuitive feeling is that there are so many raps who are full of shit and piss. A lot.

And even the rap that can make the list is definitely a rare quality. The representative is Lyon. Luo Quan’s younger brother’s status in the American rap industry can be said to have skyrocketed. He is vaguely like the little emperor of the East Coast. the meaning of.

To put it bluntly, the emergence of this list has given Western pop music a big shot in the arm, directly or indirectly spawning many masterpieces.

The emergence of a large number of excellent works and singers has also greatly threatened the status of the old singers at the beginning of the century. Many classic songs that were initially considered to be able to enter the list have also become precarious at this time.

This is the current situation of the Western music scene after this list appeared.

Strong newcomers are emerging one after another, the status of those successful old people has been greatly impacted, and the eyes of almost all musicians are focused on this list.

The Grammys happen every year, and their influence is decreasing year by year. But this list only exists once a century, and there are only so many places. Let alone being able to stay on it forever, even if it is just for a short period of time, it is definitely an extremely glorious thing.

Among countless newcomers, Luo Quan is undoubtedly the most shining star. Six of the ten songs in the "Love" album were on the list, namely "Time to say goodbye" and "Rolling in the deep" , "Scarborough Fair", "Yesterday Once More", "My heart will g on", "Call me maybe", the song rankings ranked 1, 8, 35, 40, 61, 82 respectively.

Yes, you read that right, a Chinese is ranked first in the list of things done by foreigners!

Not only these 6 songs, but also the songs she produced for the Philharmonic Orchestra and Lyon have also entered this list.

One person occupies nearly one-tenth of the position, which is the only performance in the list, especially the album "Love", which is simply the highest quality album in recent years, bar none!

I have never seen so many elements contained in one album, all with the same theme.

But Luo Quan managed to do this without even making people feel repetitive. Such creative skills are really extraordinary.

In my opinion, Luo Quan has been highly recognized by foreign academics this time, otherwise it would be impossible to have so many songs on the list. What those guys hate most is young and good-looking singers. If they are not very capable , I’m afraid I won’t even look at Luo Quan! "

Next answer:

"You ask me what I think? Kneel down and watch.

Until now, there are still people in China who question Luo Quan here and there, but they don't know how high his status abroad is.

Many musicians feel that Luo Quan's "Farewell Time" is a work that truly equates pop music and art. This song has been killing people on various charts around the world for several weeks, and various TV stations and radio stations have taken turns. It has been published countless times, and it is a work recognized all over the world.

It’s just those people in China who are still wondering whether Luo Quan’s Italian accent is standard or not, and which syllable has the accent.

It seems quite lucky that even in such a harsh soil, a world-renowned musician like Luo Quan can still be born.

It can be seen that we have talents, but due to the general environment, many talents have been buried, but fortunately, we have Luo Quan! "

These two answers elevated Luo Quan to a very high position.

But this is not flattering, but telling the truth.

These songs of Luo Quan have indeed achieved such great results on the list. It is definitely the first time for everyone in China's music industry.

You know, this is not just a comparison with the United States, but a worldwide comparison. The judges come from all over the world, and the standards are absolutely objective and fair.

But even so, except for Luo Quan, there is not even a single Asian on the list.

The key point is that people can't raise any objections to the songs on the list. There are no cultural differences in the melody of the music, and the performance is very intuitive.

And this also reflects how precious Luo Quan is, with eight names on the list.

She is now not only the pride of China, but also the pride of Asia.

After this list was released, the most intuitive impact on the music industry is that the sales of the "Love" album have once again shown an upward trend, with total sales already reaching 35 million.

In fact, "Love" has been setting world records since 25 million.

Prior to this, the best-selling album in the world had sold only 25 million, and "Love" improved this record by a full 40%.

With the appearance of this list, it has once again attracted a large number of music lovers. Luo Quan is expected to double this record within this year and next!

If this is done, Luo Quan's international reputation will reach a very terrifying level!
