In the Chinese entertainment industry, the media and fans always like to rank artists according to their financial status. This is true in both the film and music circles, such as Hong Kong's Four Heavenly Kings, New Four Heavenly Kings Zhou Wang Tao Lin, Sidan Shuangbing, etc.
In the mainland music scene, in recent years, there has been a saying of the "Four Little Queens born after 2000". The four singers among them are Shan Yichun, Zhang Yuqi, Xilinnayi Gao and Huang Xiaoyun.
Shan Yichun won the title of "The Voice of China 2020" to everyone's expectation. There was no controversy at the time. In the early days, there were two masterpieces of "Never Lost Love" and "Love Letter to Filmmakers". This year, she has her own His masterpiece "The Wind Rises When I Miss You".
Xilinnayi Gao made her C-position debut in the singing and dancing group variety show "Creation Camp 2020". She made her debut in the CCTV Spring Festival Gala in 2023. She collaborated with senior Huang Qishan in "Mom, Daughter" and also had her own hit masterpiece.
Huang Xiaoyun's starting point was not as good as Shan Yichun and Xilinnayi Gao. At that time, he was only the top 4 in Wang Feng's group and the top 16 in the country when he participated in "The Voice of China 4". Huang Xiaoyun will also appear on the CCTV Spring Festival Gala for the first time in 2023, but before that, he had a masterpiece like "Stars and Sea" that became popular all over the Internet.
As for Zhang Yuqi, she also became famous at a young age, even earlier than Shan Yichun, Xilinnayi Gao and Huang Xiaoyun. She was recognized as early as 12 years old for her performance in "China's New Voices".
After becoming an adult, Zhang Yuqi participated in "Crystal Age of Tomorrow" and won the championship. She originally thought that this post-00s singer would show off her talents in the Chinese music scene, but she did not expect that she resolutely chose to go abroad to study music at Berkeley.
On December 29, the topic of Zhang Yuqi's return hit the top of the hot search list. Although there was almost no news about her in domestic entertainment during these years of studying abroad, her return after studying still aroused heated discussions among netizens.
It is worth mentioning that what was hotly discussed at the same time as Zhang Yuqi's return to China was the news that she might join Mango's key music variety show "Singer 2024" next year.
In fact, before the news of the confirmed restart of "Singer 2024" was announced, there were some rumors on the Internet, and someone even exposed the program team's proposed invitation list, and Zhang Yuqi was among them.
So the question is, is it possible for Zhang Yuqi to join "Singer 2024"?
The author thinks there is, and the possibility is very high.
From the perspective of the program team, although the reboot of "Singer 2024" is full of gimmicks, it is really not easy to create a lineup worthy of the word "restart".
Judging from the news currently exposed on the Internet, Na Ying, who the show team has been fighting for, is currently in a pending status, and Michelle Yeh, Zhang Huimei, Lin JJ, Liu Ruoying, Cai Guoqing, Jolin Tsai, etc. have all declined.
Although it is difficult to tell whether the news is true or false, viewers who follow Mango Music Variety should be able to appreciate the difficulty of the "Singer 2024" program team.
After the suspension of "I Am a Singer", Mango's "The Sound of Life" has successfully set a new benchmark for domestic entertainment music. Although the competition is not high, Hong Kong Philharmonic and Baodao Jihe are currently on the air. The family's youth has "consumed" dozens of singers in the music industry.
Since Mango is carrying the gimmick of "restarting", of course Mango wants to come up with a lineup that is good enough. The premise is naturally that they cannot use too many singers from the past two years of "The Sound of Life", otherwise it will be a bad start.
However, if he wants to invite senior singers who are rarely on the vocal spectrum, Mango faces two major problems. One is that he really cannot hire them, and the other is that some of his seniors have serious voice problems.
Therefore, the author predicts that "Singer 2024" will not invite too many senior singers. There will definitely be new generation singers in the starting lineup, and Zhang Yuqi, who has strong enough singing skills, is worthy of being considered by the program team. Now it is just a topic of returning to China. It became a hot search topic, and Mango might even try his best to invite her.
From Zhang Yuqi’s perspective, she went to Berkeley to study music, and she must enter the music scene in the future, and she will be in front of the stage, not behind the scenes.
Although Zhang Yuqi is good at singing and writing, she is still a newcomer. In the current market environment, it is difficult to be seen as a singer who simply publishes films. Participating in music variety shows is undoubtedly a shortcut. Mango has high hopes for "Singer 2024" 》It suits her very well.
It is worth mentioning that among the four post-00 queens mentioned above, only Huang Xiaoyun has joined "I Am a Singer", so Shan Yichun, Xilin Nayi Gao and Zhang Yuqi may all participate in next year's "Singer 2024" 》.
Of course, in addition to the saying of the four little queens born in 2000, there is another saying called "Shuangshu born in 2000", which refers to Shan Yichun and Zhang Yuqi. The former has singing skills and has an online business, and the latter has both singing skills and creative writing. , are all talented new generations.
In addition, the author also saw an interesting comment, saying that fans born in the 2000s have their own Faye Wong and Na Ying, corresponding to Zhang Yuqi and Shan Yichun respectively.
In short, Zhang Yuqi will definitely take action after returning to China after studying, and Shan Yichun has already appeared in the comment area of topics related to Zhang Yuqi. The two of them are destined to be compared.
But as the saying goes, a fool compares and a wise man appreciates.
Shan Yichun and Zhang Yuqi are undoubtedly rare new generation talents in the mainland music scene, and neither of them needs to be in the shadow of their predecessors.
