Volume 1: Japanese Storm Chapter 18: The Righteous Path of Shota (4)
Olivia didn't let Jerry finish. She bent down and gave Jerry a peck on the cheek, okay, smack. Two smacks, is that a peck? Not at all!
Okay, Jerry's other hand was still tightly grasped in Olivia's.
The microphone standing upright in the center of the stage was still battling with Jerry, as the length of the boom rod couldn't let Jerry's mouth get close to the edge of the microphone! In desperation, Henry Mancini had someone bring over a small stool, which finally allowed the winner of Song of the Year to reach the microphone!
"Okay, maybe I'm just scared!"
The guests burst out laughing!
Then Jerry turned his head, "Miss Olivia, can you help me hold the phonograph first? With only one hand, I really can't grasp it. Otherwise, will you let go of my other hand?"
Ophelia smiled and took the phonograph from Jerry's hand, but still didn't let go of his hand. "Little guy, I have to keep an eye on you or you'll fall off the stool!"
Another burst of laughter erupted from under the stage!
Then Jerry pretended to cough!
"I really didn't think I'd get this award! Not at all. When Mr. Mansini was announcing the winner, I was thinking, 'Is it going to be Steve Winwood, Bobby McFerrin, or Tracy Chapman?' Maybe that's why God gave me this award! Because giving it to any of those three wouldn't be fair! So it's better that someone less capable like me gets it instead! After all, there's only one trophy!" This little guy really is selling himself short, but coming from a kid, no one would doubt him! At least this way, the other three nominees will feel much more at ease! The audience erupted in laughter again!
"Here, thank God's mercy, thank my mother far in heaven, thank Cai Cai Zi, thank Mr. Yī Tián, thank the sales channels of cover albums, thank anyone who opposes war and loves children! Thank all those who love me!"
"Also, I want to especially thank one person! My idol, Mr. Michael Jackson, if it wasn't for him, I wouldn't have been able to write a song like this, and if I was nominated for the Grammys, I think I wouldn't have had the chance to get this award either! Thank you, Michael. Thank you everyone, may the world be peaceful, may humanity be equal, may every child have a wonderful childhood!"
"Lastly, I'd like to say one more thing. I'm from Japan, but I'm a Chinese person! Thanks!"
Everyone understands how reasonable this little guy from the East is! If Michael Jackson's song was nominated for a Grammy Best Single. There's no doubt that one of the four major awards, Song of the Year, will definitely fall into Michael's hands!
Alright! After a good scolding, Jerry's words were finally interpreted as the innocence of a child.
Of course, as the president of the company. Inada Hajime still reminded Jerry what to say and what not to say, at least not to make the Grammy judges disgusted, after all. For Americans, Japan created their national shame, December 7th, Japan's sneak attack on Pearl Harbor!
But Jerry was fearless. After all, as a child, he still had many privileges!
The awards ceremony continued, with big-name performers such as Tracy Chapman and George Michael taking the stage. But Jerry's favorite was still Whitney Houston, who performed "One Moment in Time", which she had recorded for the Seoul Olympics. With her explosive hairstyle, two red cheeks, white gown, and powerful voice, Whitney Houston brought down the house at Radio City Music Hall with this classic inspirational song! The entire audience rose to their feet, cheering for this legendary diva.
One by one, the awards were presented, and Tracy Chapman, who was robbed of Song of the Year by Jerry, and Bobby McFerrin respectively won Best Female Pop Vocal Performance and Best Male Pop Vocal Performance. In addition, Bobby McFerrin also took home Record of the Year! And Album of the Year went to George Michael!
Here needs to be clarified the difference between Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Album of the Year. The more accurate name for Record of the Year should be Best Recording Award, which is awarded to singers, recording engineers and mixing engineers, mainly to affirm their achievements in single production; Album of the Year is awarded to singers and the main creators of the album; Song of the Year is awarded to the song's creators, and the singer has no share!
Four major heavyweight awards have gone and three small ones are left, only the Best Newcomer of the Year award is left!
And at this time, Michael Jackson's performance has begun!
Exquisite dance steps, a stunning performance that seemed to have felt the protest declaration issued by Jerry for him, Michael Jackson used a transcendent masterful performance to bomb the entire concert hall. He used music, dance steps, and every corner of his body to strongly protest against those damn white racists!
Jerry followed up with "Bei Wei" and "Xian" continuing to shout slogans.
But such shouting has shouted out Venezuela's past!
When this year's best country male artist opened the envelope for the award, his extremely magnetic voice changed style God really couldn't say it out loud
Then this guy ripped open the award envelope! The guests sitting below the stage burst into loud laughter!
"Dai, let's go, the guest seat suddenly shouted out loud, it was the winner of the Best Rock Female Artist Award, the American rock mother, Tina Turner."
"Alright, alright, I'll tell you! Jerry, Jerry Goldsmith. From Japan's Koei Company!"
The moment Lundi Chawes said it out loud, the whole concert hall fell silent!
What's going on? A nine-year-old kid actually won a major Grammy award!
And in the next instant, the whole concert hall erupted in a frenzy!
This little guy, he made history!
Even Jerry himself did not expect this result. Originally, when he learned that 0 Killer Company had not received any gramophone awards, he told himself that it was just a nomination.
He may not have known that the Grammy organizers had previously handed out some of the more contentious awards, such as Best Rap Duo Performance for OutKast and Ol' Dirty Bastard.
The four major heavyweight awards are not so easily given away!
Jerry walked up on stage and took the tape recorder from Lenny's hands while Lenny was still shaking his head. Yes, he was still shaking his head!
Hard to believe
This guy has been talking to himself all along!
"Mr. Weasley, if you don't help me carry this phonograph, I'll have to ask Miss Ophelia over! Miss Ophelia, Miss Ophelia, please come and help me carry the phonograph, Mr. Chavez is dreaming!"
The whole audience burst into laughter!
"Alright, Mr. Chaveshin, you have to understand, the winner gets the trophy. It's the presenter's duty!" The little guy with a serious face made the audience laugh again!
"I'm back, and I just came from downstairs, and mainly because not long ago, I just received the Grammy Award from Mr. Mansini's hands. Now, there is one more! If you want to know what happens next, support the author"
