First, let me declare that this is a proper KTV, a quantity-based one, with all male staff. It's the kind of place where everyone enjoys themselves.
During dinner, I opened the electronic pickled vegetables, 1922--2022, the Chinese music scene.
It starts with the Chinese music scene; what's wrong? Generally, it has declined.
The song "Selling Newspapers" was created around the 1930s.
"Let Us Swing Our Oars" in 1955.
1986 was the International Year of Peace. The creators of "Tomorrow Will Be Better" hoped to imitate the model of "We Are The World," where stars sang for charity, to echo the theme of the International Year of Peace. Thus, Luo Dayou, Zhang Aijia, and others co-created this song.
The QQ Music Trio refers to the three singers Xu Song, Wang Sulong, and Xu Liang. Around 2010, they became one of the most popular creative singers among young people on the internet due to their stable high output and unique creative style.
The rise of online singers has impacted professional singers.
Regarding copyright issues, for those who are somewhat well-known, when performing commercially, singing someone else's song usually lasts only three lines; otherwise, they might end up earning nothing that day.
Beyond has some songs that are anti-war and pay tribute to Mandela.

Teresa Teng's status in the music scene can be described as the great-grandmother diva or diva great-grandmother; she's really impressive.
Jay Chou's outrageous songs and average songs both lead the times, with a diverse style. It seems impressive, but it actually is impressive.
The Four Heavenly Kings have quite a few good songs; I won't list them all.
Some content creators use Fourier transforms (a great invention) to convert waveform frequencies into numerical tables, then integrate them into 600 key values through algorithms, and then run data verification. From any 10 numbers among the 600 values, they analyze style, rhythm, genre, etc., to determine whose song it is, achieving high accuracy, and then expand to more songs. They also analyze the influential charts of each year to find average songs. Songs that deviate from the average are considered outrageous songs. It's uncertain, but the measurements serve as a reference. Haha.
Another viewpoint is that music, painting, and creative methods have been exhausted; noise music has existed for over a hundred years. Think about it (actually, it's nothing; barbecuing has been done since ancient times, sparked by lightning causing wildfires, and continues to this day). In painting, there are various materials and styles, and now there's also AI painting.

Note
Noise music (musicofnoise) consists of noise, with no fixed pitch, and the vibrations of sound are irregular. Noise music is a major expression of the Futurist movement in music. Futurism is an artistic movement that emerged in Italy in the early 20th century, rejecting tradition and advocating for new ideas in future art, emphasizing the expression of modern mechanical civilization, initially reflected in painting and later expanded into music.
The main representative of Futurism in music is the Italian inventor, painter, and composer Luigi Rusolo (1885—1947). He strongly advocated incorporating noise into music, categorizing noise into six types:
-
Roaring, thunder, explosions, crashing, splashing, and howling;
-
Whistling, hissing, and jet sounds;
-
Rustling, bubbling, gurgling, chaotic sounds, and murmuring;
-
Sharp sounds, howling, rustling, noisy sounds, and scratching;
-
The sounds of striking metal, wood, and ceramic tiles;
-
The sounds of animals and humans: shouting, screaming, moaning, crying, laughing, gasping, and sobbing.
He created works like "The Gathering of Cars and Airplanes" (1913—1914) using the concept of noise music, but later stopped creating noise music due to the general rejection of such music by society.
During this period, although French composer Edgard Varèse did not create noise music, he used different percussion instruments in some of his works to enrich the timbre, giving his creations a potential noise music quality.
