The band, which is well-known in the Chinese music scene, has recently been embroiled in a controversy over lip-synching. This turmoil has sparked a wide discussion: what does lip-syncing mean in the industry?What impact does it have on your career?Many music fans were shocked and disappointed, and they began to question whether the idol they had long admired was really trustworthy.
The cause of this controversy is this: a blogger "Farmer in the Wheat Field" made a paragraph of **, which authentically and falsely sang the 12 songs of ***'s concert in Shanghai. He used professional audio analysis software to extract the vocal tracks of the live recording**, compared metrics such as pitch, volume and frequency, and found that 6 of the songs were fully or partially lip-synched. These songs include "Cheers", "Falling in Love", "Contentment", "Lover Misses", "Sad People Don't Listen to Slow Songs", and "Write This Song for You".
This ** has caused a lot of repercussions on the Internet, and many netizens and fans have expressed disappointment and anger at ***'s lip-synching, believing that it is disrespectful to the audience and **. There are also some fans who defended ***, saying that they were just to protect Ashin's voice, or to enhance the atmosphere of the scene, or to meet the expectations of the audience. There are also some fans who say that they don't care if *** is lip-syncing, as long as they can see them.
Lip-to-lip singing is not a new topic in the industry, and it has always been controversial and controversial. Some people believe that lip-syncing is a kind of deception and irregularity, which damages the artistry and authenticity of **, insults the audience's IQ and feelings, and also devalues the level and character of the artist. Some people think that lip-syncing is an understandable choice, taking into account the artist's age, physical strength, voice and other factors, as well as the scale, venue, equipment and other conditions of the concert, lip-synching can ensure the effect and quality of the performance, and can also meet the expectations and needs of the audience.
In this lip-synching turmoil, there are also some other artists and producers who have expressed their opinions. Some people expressed their support for *** and thought that they were a powerful and talented band, and lip-synching did not affect their ** and feelings, and should not be overly criticized and smeared. Some people have expressed their opposition to ***, believing that they are a nominal band, and lip-syncing is disrespectful and irresponsible, as well as disrespectful and dishonest to the audience. There are also those who are neutral, believing that lip-syncing is a complex issue that needs to be considered from many aspects, and cannot be generalized, nor can it blindly pursue the standard of truth and falsehood.
Lip-synching is not only a matter of morality and art, but also of law. If *** does lip-synching, what are the legal risks and consequences they may face?We interviewed a professional lawyer who gave us the following analysis:
According to Article 47 of the Regulations on the Administration of For-profit Performances, if the audience is deceived by fake singing, the audience has the right to demand compensation from the performance organizer in accordance with the laws and regulations on the protection of consumer rights and interests after leaving the venueThe performance organizer may recover compensation from the responsible theatrical performance groups and actors in accordance with law. This means that if an audience member is dissatisfied with the lip-syncing, they can file a claim with the performance organizer for a refund of the ticket fee or compensation for moral damages. The organizer of the performance can also be held accountable and require them to bear the corresponding compensation or fine.
If the performance organizers, theatrical performance groups, and actors have announced to the public the act of lip-synching twice within 2 years by the competent cultural department or the people's cultural department of the province, autonomous region, or municipality directly under the Central Government, the commercial performance permit will be revoked, and the business license of the individual actor will be revoked. This means that if the fake singing behavior is officially recognized and announced, they will face serious penalties, may lose their qualifications to perform in China, and even be banned from engaging in ** activities.
If there is a behavior of fake singing, the performance organizers, theatrical performance groups, and actors will also be fined between 50,000 yuan and 100,000 yuan by the county-level people's ** cultural department;Those who provide conditions for actors to sing falset-to-mouth will be fined between 5,000 and 10,000 yuan. This means that if the fake singing behavior is verified, they will face financial losses and may have to pay tens of thousands of yuan or even hundreds of thousands of yuan in fines.
To sum up, the act of lip-synching not only violates the law, but also violates the artistic spirit of the law, and is irresponsible to the audience and oneself, and should be punished and educated accordingly.
In the face of this lip-synching turmoil, the public's reaction was inconsistent, with some resolutely opposing, some resolutely defending, and some noncommittal. This also reflects the seriousness and sensitivity of lip-synching, which has sparked a lot of controversy and discussion.
** and their team's response to the controversy was relatively low-key and cautious, not directly denying or acknowledging the fact of lip-syncing, but taking some steps to prove their sincerity and professionalism. This may be a way for them to calm the storm and restore their reputation and trust.
** did not directly respond to the accusations of lip-syncing, but posted a message on their official Weibo that their Paris concert will be broadcast live online, so that fans around the world can feel their sincerity and enthusiasm. Some netizens believe that this is the way to indirectly break ** with real singing.
The agency believes that the agency also issued a statement saying that their concert was conducted under the supervision of law enforcement officials and that there were no irregularities. They also said that they would publish the evidence that there was no lip-syncing on the official website, and that the original film in Shanghai had been handed over to the Ministry of Culture for identification.
Overall, ** and his team's response to the controversy was relatively low-key and cautious, not directly denying or admitting the fact of lip-syncing, but taking some steps to prove their sincerity and professionalism. This may be a way for them to calm the storm and restore their reputation and trust.
