May is coming soon, and Mayday will have another concert. May is coming soon, and Mayday will have another concert!
html On April 24, Mayday’s management company Believe Music officially announced: Mayday’s tour concert in Beijing will be held at the Bird’s Nest from May 18 to June 1 for 10 concerts. Break another record! The last recordset was when they held eight consecutive concerts at the Shanghai Stadium in November 2023, but they immediately fell into the "lip-synching controversy" and related topics were on the hot search for several days.
As the "lip-synching controversy" continues to ferment, many netizens have turned into voiceprint identification "Sherlock Holmes" and analyzed Mayday's concert data frame by frame. Although Mayday quickly responded that there was no lip-synching, it still endured tremendous pressure.
At that time, the Law Enforcement Corps of the Shanghai Municipal Bureau of Culture and Tourism stated that it had required the organizer to cooperate with the investigation in accordance with the "Regulations on the Administration of Commercial Performances" regarding Mayday's suspected lip-synching. After the relevant situation is verified in accordance with the law, it will respond to netizens' concerns in a timely manner.
It has been five months since the "lip-syncing controversy" occurred. Before the official investigation results were confirmed, Mayday officially announced that it would "break the record again." Many netizens expressed great expectations for this, but some netizens questioned that this time they are even busier, singing 10 shows in 15 days...
is really - "I and my last stubbornness, clenched my hands and refused to let go!"
said The storm is about to begin. Will the box office be a hit this time? In this regard, many senior figures in the performance market predict that as soon as Mayday comes out, fans will definitely pay for it, because it is difficult to define celebrity lip-synching, and before the results of the survey are released, the industry usually assumes that there is "no problem" with the artist.

data is very impressive. Information from the ticketing platform Damai App shows that all tickets for the Mayday concert in Quanzhou on April 27 have been sold out; although tickets for the 10 performances at the Bird's Nest in Beijing have not yet been issued, the number of people who "want to see" on Damai has exceeded 300,000. The fans of
are indeed awesome, but it is not ruled out that some people want to come to the scene to "test the authenticity."
Of course, relevant departments will not be absent this time. Relevant law enforcement departments in Beijing have stated that they will send staff to on-site supervision and have corresponding working mechanisms to "identify real singing and lip-synching."
sounds a bit embarrassing, but it is indeed a responsible approach to the fans. In the past, concert supervision was dispensable, and subsequent supervision was easily dismissed due to lack of evidence. This time, the relevant departments are "ready for it" and the fans are "eagle-eyed". I believe Mayday will not "fall into the trap". It's always a bit sad that
's concert has reached such a situation and relies on supervision to really perform.
In the 1980s and 1990s, many celebrities were all-in-one and could spend decades with their fans. The old idols are also very impressive. Jacky Cheung still does the splits at the age of 60. Xinzhe Chang sang to the audience with a clear voice. Aaron Kwok was laughed at when he danced too slowly, "like a toy that is about to run out of power." It is the duty of an artist to be dedicated, and true singing is a basic skill. The audience will vote on their level, and it is not the supervisor's turn to "see the situation."
Concerts that once attracted the attention of thousands of people are slowly coming off the "altar".
has gradually recovered and become popular since last year's concert, and related incidents have continued, and various chaos in the performance market have surfaced one by one.
Xu Meijing's Nanjing concert caused controversy (pictures from the Internet)
Some time ago, everyone at Xu Meijing's concert called for refunds. The "collective memory of youth" that the audience was looking forward to turned out to be their biggest disappointment. Xu Huaiyu, who just held a concert at Shanghai Meiben, was quite embarrassed due to insufficient attendance and the entire first-floor bleacher was closed. At Phoenix Legend's Changzhou concert, a fan managed to get a ticket, but his seat was behind a huge pillar. Fortunately, Phoenix Legend expressed support for the fans' rights protection and gave them tickets to the Bird's Nest concert.
It turns out that the fans of this generation will not spoil anyone. A memory killing is a memory killing, and the concert is a concert. I can buy expensive ones, but I can’t buy expensive ones. No matter how big a star is, he must have professional ethics. If his business ability is not good, his organization is stumbling, and his fans' tolerance is limited.Real money was spent, it depends on the real materials, don’t overdo it!
The reason why everyone is an "authenticator" is the booming concert market, the improvement of the audience's appreciation threshold, and the reduction of multi-dimensional error tolerance in performance content, venue, etc., which also marks that China's performance market has entered a new era. "evolutionary period".
Many fans are willing to spend a lot of money to support their favorite singers. Concerts should become a bridge for singers to interact with fans, rather than just a channel for entertainment companies and artist teams to make money. Letting the audience come in happy and leave full of complaints is a disservice to their enthusiasm and goes against the artist's true intentions.
In the final analysis, supervision "depends on the situation". It can tolerate the lip-synching of celebrities, but cannot bear the disappointment of fans.
has experienced pillar tickets, plummeting ticket prices, inappropriate remarks by singers on site, lip-syncing scandals, etc. All kinds of chaos are being clarified one by one, and the upstream and downstream industries in the performance industry have been able to continuously correct themselves during the outbreak.
According to data released by the China Performance Industry Association, in the first three quarters of 2023, there were 342,400 commercial performances nationwide, an increase of 278.76% over the same period last year; performance box office revenue was 31.541 billion yuan, an increase of 453.74% over the same period last year. Needless to say, the performance aggregation effect has boosted local cultural tourism. It is understandable that local governments hope that audiences will have a better cultural tourism experience.
html On April 3, Forbes released the 38th Global Billionaires List. The 34-year-old American music queen Taylor Swift officially appeared on the rich list. With a net worth of US$1.1 billion (approximately RMB 8 billion), she became the richest person in history. The first artist to become a billionaire based solely on his music and acting income. Her concert also gave birth to "Tydy Economics".Therefore, our big stars, the entertainment industry still has a long and wide road to go, and it is not just about memory killers and jokesters.
