Chapter 53 Language Change: Cantonese!
Chapter 53 Language Change: Cantonese! (Seeking monthly votes!)
"This one……"
"that……"
"oops……"
"A change of topic?"
"That's not good either, we've tried everything, it's no use..."
"Shen Ming'en is too strong, too powerful, we can't do anything about it..."
"Tsk, there's really nothing we can do about him, it's so infuriating!"
"That guy, Hajime..."
……
At the roundtable meeting, at the request of Ma Ling, the representative of the production company, everyone expressed their opinions and discussed the matter extensively.
But...
That's all just empty talk.
Ma Ling: "(╬ ̄皿 ̄)"
She had considered that the production team might outwardly comply but inwardly resist, but she never expected it to go this far!
It's worth mentioning that Director Niu, sitting to the side, secretly chuckled upon seeing this, then feigned a "headache" and "helplessness," and said to Ma Ling:
"Sigh, it's not that we don't want to eliminate him. As you can see, our entire production team has tried our best, but this kid is very capable. He can handle any question you ask. We really can't do anything about it."
Director Niu's words sounded like he was trying to gain sympathy, but they were actually the truth.
Even if their show didn't achieve great success in attracting sponsors this episode, they still wanted to eliminate Shen Mingen, and there really wasn't a better way.
You should know that they even brought out styles like traditional opera and operatic singing, which are practically their trump cards!
Shen Ming'en even knows opera and Peking opera singing, and he can use that to write a revolutionary song, and it's just as good as any of his previous songs...
What can you do about it?!
In other words, is there any style more precious than traditional Chinese opera and operatic singing in the entire country... no, in the world?
That's all!
"Squeak..."
Upon hearing this, Ma Ling nearly ground her teeth to powder. Looking at the bruises all over Director Niu's face, she thought to herself, "Wei Zihan's beating of you yesterday was damn mild!"
Despite her thoughts, Ma Ling couldn't say them out loud. She composed herself and tapped the table a few times.
"..."
The meeting room, which had been filled with diverse and sometimes chaotic opinions, quickly quieted down, and everyone turned to look at Ma Ling.
Ma Ling cleared her throat and said directly, "First of all, Shen Ming'en still needs to be eliminated. As for the method, I can provide you with one..."
Everyone was taken aback by this, and Director Niu's lips twitched. But before he could speak up to stop her, Ma Ling said bluntly, "First of all, it still has to be a commissioned creation..."
As soon as these words came out.
"puff……"
Many people at the scene couldn't hold back their emotions.
"Sister Ma, assigned topics won't work..."
“We’ve given him creative assignments for so many episodes, but we still can’t get rid of him.”
"You're only making him more aggressive!"
The four episodes of themed creation had already shattered the heroic spirit of the production team, and everyone started talking at once.
“The assigned topic won’t work,” Director Niu chuckled and added, “You’ve seen it yourself, this kid can express the same love for his country no matter what topic you give him, it’s useless.”
The doubts of the crowd did not shake Ma Ling. She chuckled and said, "That's because you haven't found the trick yet."
Hearing this, the crowd was not convinced. Instead, they were somewhat disgusted by Ma Ling's attitude. Although they didn't say anything on the surface, they inwardly scoffed and started chirping away...
Ma Ling ignored her and said bluntly, "You've selected so many episodes, setting topics and musical styles, haven't you ever thought about changing the language?"
"Language???" Everyone present was taken aback.
Why the hell are they changing the language?
English? French? Korean?
It can't be some kind of everyday language!
Yes, sparrow food. If Shen Ming'en were to use a foreign language, it would be very difficult for him to express his love for his motherland. The languages are different, there's no way around it...
The problem is, their show is called "Chinese Music Show Center"!
Chinese!
Do you understand what Mandarin means?
Do you understand the value of this?
If you were to create a foreign language question for an episode, not only would netizens be furious with the production team, but the government might not even allow it to air!
In previous episodes, they ranked Shen Ming'en's patriotic songs last, which was already a bit of a gamble and could easily be criticized by higher authorities. If they were to add a foreign language question to a program that focuses on "original Chinese music," do you think netizens wouldn't personally submit their complaints to the relevant departments?
At that point, the show will be canceled altogether!
The relevant departments turn a blind eye to them. If they really want to deal with them, they can shut down the program team under the guise of "rectification" by checking fire safety, checking the logs, or checking anything else!
"No, absolutely not!" Director Niu flatly refused. "Hey Xiao Ma, we still have to produce the show. Are you trying to make us go down with Shen Ming'en?!"
That way, the sparrows stopped Shen Ming'en, but the production team was also in an uproar. They all ended up getting a grenade and it was game over. It was a case of hurting the enemy a thousand while damaging themselves a hundred thousand!
Ma Ling achieved her goal, but what about the production team?
She was happy, but what about her parents?
It would be strange if the production team agreed!
"Tsk..." It's worth mentioning that upon hearing this, Ma Ling clicked her tongue, glanced at Director Niu, and said, "Director Niu, I haven't finished speaking yet, so don't be so quick to deny it."
"...Anyway, I don't think it's going to work." Director Niu remained silent, only offering his unwavering rejection.
"Yeah yeah……"
Seeing that everyone else in the meeting room was about to join Director Niu in their performance, Ma Ling simply waved her hand and said bluntly, "It's definitely still Chinese, but what I mean is, there's more than one language in Chinese, there are many regional dialects..."
When she said this, there was a hint of ambiguity in her eyes.
Anyone with a brain would understand what Ma Ling meant at this point...
"You mean... Cantonese?" Director Niu's lips twitched.
"Dialect songs" are not actually mainstream in the Chinese music scene. Some rappers on rap shows may promote Chongqing dialect or something similar, but frankly, it's just a few individuals and a very niche group.
There's a reason for this...
Many dialects in China are not as melodious as the mainstream Mandarin, and they are also very difficult to pronounce. Many people cannot understand them, and when they are arranged into songs, they do not sound very good. As a result, even if someone makes them, they remain a niche art form.
Among the dialects of Chinese, there is one language that does not have this problem. It has a pleasant and diverse pronunciation and was once very mainstream.
That is: "Cantonese!"
In other words, it's what's known as "Hong Kong pop music!"
From the 70s to the 90s, before the rise of the mainland music scene, Cantonese was already the mainstream. Back then, Hong Kong stars led to the export of countless high-quality Cantonese songs to all parts of the world, and Cantonese songs occupied a place in the world at that time.
That's a generation's memory, and that era left behind countless high-quality Cantonese songs. So even now, in many people's minds, Hong Kong music is still "mainstream" and "popular"!
When Ma Ling says "dialect," Director Niu doesn't really think it's a niche dialect in mainland China. Anyone who thinks about it for a moment would realize it's Cantonese!
If it really is Cantonese...
It seems that Shen Ming'en's fate is truly in jeopardy.
