Macau in July is full of crowds, and the summer vacation + the annual TMEA Tencent Music Entertainment Festival is quite lively.
Jolin Tsai, JJ Lin, Zhang Jie, Jane Zhang, Yuan Yawei, Shang Wenjie, SEVENTEEN, Wen Junhui, Zhou Shen, Mika MIKA, Chen Zhuoxuan, Zhang Dongliang, Sue Five, Liu Xijun, LE SSERAFIM, TREASURE, TVXQ! (TVXQ), Hanazawa Coriander, WayV… 2023TMEA can be called the strongest performance lineup on the surface of the earth. No wonder the daily average temperature of 35°+ in Macau can’t stop the fans’ enthusiasm at all. At the music festival, a SEVENTEEN fan said to kk:“Help me with a word, TMEA, your music festival lineup is worthy of Taimiao, please maintain this level next year, I will come once more.”(smile)
The time is different from previous TMEA. This year is in July, which is like the finale of the first half of 2023 and the opening song of the second half of the year; the specifications have also been adjusted. Singing for two consecutive days, it not only retained the classic music ceremony, but also added a new music festival. In an interview with kk, the five-member band called out their enjoyment, from the outdoor music festival to the stage of the indoor music ceremony.
Not only the musicians, fans, reporters, staff, everyone on the scene, the main focus is to participate in TMEA as a special soldier. Tired, but very happy. Because everyone needs meeting and music too much. In the words of a fan:“You sing for happiness, we spend money and time for happiness, in TMEA, we are all happy people.”
haven’t seen you for a long time
kk’s TMEA itinerary started when they got off the plane and met Jane Zhang. Many music fans also met their favorite idols, JJ Lin, Mika MIKA, SEVENTEEN, LE SSERAFIM… On July 8th,#Macao Encounter#Even rushed to Weibo hot search.
The first profound picture is that Jane Zhang and Yuan Yawei sang “365 Days of Missing You” together on the evening of July 8, paying tribute to CoCo Lee. From the beginning of their deep voices, fans Dolphin’s eyes turned red, “Seeing the two female singers I like mourning another legendary musician who is well-known to everyone, at that moment, all emotions came to my heart. Those who accompany you Some of the people who grew up together have not seen each other for a long time, and some will never see each other once more.”
The dolphins thought they would watch tonight’s performance with a heavy heart. Fortunately, both Jane Zhang and TIA won awards later, and they performed new songs “One Circle”, “Dancing on the Moon (EMO WHISKEY)” and “God Prophecy” at the ceremony. The music gradually returned to the excitement before the entrance.
Singer Lin Junjie, who also used a singer to express his heartache for CoCo Lee’s departure, was the finale performance at the ceremony on July 9th. Before singing “Lonely Entertainment”, he said, “I want to use this song to give to our dear CoCo Lee, thank her for her tenderness, and thank her for giving us so many feelings through music.” In addition, he sang consecutively that day. Dance “Cao Cao”, “Drunken Red Cliff”, “Wish and Sorrow”, “Those Dreams You Are Adventurous”, “Over 7,300 Days”, “No Tide, No Money”, the duration is over half an hour.
Indeed, no one might have imagined that such a cheerful and optimistic CoCo would leave. Therefore, even though it has been several days since this shocking news, everyone is still unwilling to believe it. And these temporary, heartfelt links are precisely one of the most tender parts of this TMEA.Perhaps, there are countless fans like dolphins who are moved by the reluctance and sympathy among musicians.
12-year-old Si Rui and 20-year-old Le Yao are from Macau and Guangzhou respectively, but they both come for the same person – JJ Lin. When describing their feelings following watching JJ Lin’s performance, they were very excited,“Shocking”, “Wonderful”,This is the first time for Si Rui to watch JJ’s offline performance. Although she is only 12 years old, she said that she has liked JJ for 8 years. At first, it was because her mother was a JJ fan, and later she also fell in love with JJ’s music.
Like Si Rui, Le Yao, who has liked JJ for 12 years, is also the first time to watch offline. “I used to listen to his songs in headphones and on the screen, and watch him dance. This time, I was really shocked when I came to the scene. I finally understood what others said regarding repairing the stereo.” Yao feels that the reason why she has such a long love for JJ is that JJ is a person who knows how to be grateful and is very dedicated to the stage and music.

“I really cried to death. Even though he has won many awards and staged many times, he will still be grateful for every award and carefully prepare for every stage.” When chatting with them, kk felt more than once Their pride in liking JJ. “Of course I’m very proud. Don’t be too hard on your business ability. When I just heard it, some passers-by came to ask me when JJ will hold a concert this year. It’s worth listening to.” Le Yao said.
For them, listening to their favorite singer’s offline for the first time and gaining such a high-quality experience is undoubtedly the happiest thing in July.
A pair of suspected lovers sitting behind kk also came from Zhuhai, and had to rush back following listening to it that night because they had to go to work the next day. “Don’t you think it’s too troublesome?” I asked, and the boy replied, “No way, I’m a worker, but I’m still very excited to listen to the scene.” He mainly accompanied the girl next to him to come and sue the five people, and the girl shared it in one breath. There are several sue five songs she wants to hear, and “It’s Not Easy” performed at the Amway ceremony. “We have a mutual friend who mightn’t come together because she gave birth to a child. She is envious at home right now hahaha.”
In the front row is a much older middle-aged couple, very passionate, and they frantically take pictures, record videos and shout for every singer’s performance. KK’s colleague Daxue came from Beijing just to guard Jolin Tsai’s stage. “It’s really been a long time, Ms. Cai.” On the first night of the ceremony, Jolin Tsai changed her stage costume three times and sang for 30 minutes. From being a little nervous at the beginning to singing more and more loudly later, I mightn’t hear enough. The ceremony is over here, then Another media reporter, Da Ting, decided to invite friends to grab tickets to go to Jolin’s concert.
At that time, kk sat at the ceremony site, looked around, and felt very healed. Maybe it’s because of the performance on stage, maybe it’s because of a person next to them, the expressions on their faces, the smiles, the loud shouts and screams, or maybe it’s because the scene that has been longed for for the past three years has become normal once more.
The people I want to see, the songs I want to hear, really, it’s been a long time.
How can you not love the scene?
Fans and friends are not the only ones who are obsessed with the scene.
The singers who walked into the media group interview room also kept expressing the infinite temptation of the scene to them. Standing on stage as a singer facing fans is different from being an audience. By the way, because the media during the group interview mightn’t go to the scene, they still sang a cappella intimately in the interview room, and they were warmed up.
When the five people were asked who they wanted to hear the most, they blurted out: Lin Junjie. Finally, following finishing the interview, we rushed into the scene together and heard JJ’s last song “No Fashion, No Money”. “I have a little regret, and I will come to TMEA to fill in next year.”
After five years, Shang Wenjie, who released a new song and sang “Follow Your Heart” for the first time, shared the mutual achievements between the singer, the stage and the audience with a little excitement during the stage performance that night. Every look and expression of the audience in the audience, she has received the feedback signal. “Obviously it’s a new song, but everyone’s state and atmosphere are good, and I’m gradually performing better.”
It is undeniable that the sense of immersion and expression brought by the scene is unmatched by listening to music online. “I knew that Zhou Shen might sing, but I didn’t expect him to be able to sing like this. I felt like he was regarding to lift the roof of the theater. If he said that TMEA’s sound is not good and the mics are not fully turned on, I would be the first to refute.” After listening to Zhou Shen’s “Bright Adventurer”, the fan said excitedly, and at the end, he added: “Whether a singer is good or not, we still have to watch the scene.”
Liu Xijun, who is still riding the wind and waves, brought a set of meaningful Cantonese skewers. She said she wanted to dedicate this set of songs to those who wanted to remember something special.
Wearing a black and red Hong Kong style outfit with wavy curly hair, who can not be attracted by that stage. On the red carpet, the fans were very excited, “I really want to hear her sing Cantonese, it’s very charming, I hope she will consider singing more Cantonese when she tours in the future.” Fan Xiaotong said to kk excitedly, and specifically confessed that she would Tell Liu Xijun.

Another group of passionate fans in the red carpet area is Xuanfeng, a fan of singer Chen Zhuoxuan. They waved the aids in their hands and shouted slogans exclusive to Chen Zhuoxuan. The headbands and small flags on their heads were a little more cute. “We won’t embarrass sister Xuanzi on such an occasion. There must be a face-to-face meeting. As a rising female artist, the main thing is to have fun together.”
Chen Zhuoxuan sang “The Lonely Brave” (solo) and “Ke” (singing with Mika) that night, as steady as ever. Starting from “Creation Camp”, her strength should not be underestimated. Mika walked the red carpet with a helmet in hand, I won’t say who is so handsome. The live performance of “The Light Wrapped in the Heart” and “Ke” (singing with Chen Zhuoxuan), both appearance and strength, the stage scene is perfect.
“I finally saw him offline once more. We are so close, it’s too unreal. Even though the performance has been over for a long time, I’m still very excited. I can only relieve this emotion by listening to the scene recorded on my mobile phone. ” Mika fan Luo said while showing KK the Mika in her mobile phone, at least tens of thousands of them. While kk felt a little exaggerated, he mightn’t help being envious at the same time, it’s nice to be young, and it’s nice to meet someone you like.
If it is said that fans and musicians rushed to the scene in both directions, then following Li Jiawei sang “That Moment”, she staged a good show of becoming fans in the same place. A girl in a black T-shirt danced in surprise following listening to her live, kept saying “this is too good at singing”, then turned on QQ music on the spot, followed Li Jiawei, and decided that if she started singing If you do, buy a ticket to see it yourself. In addition, Guo Guanting, who won the New Power Singer of the Year, sang “Instinct” live, and his performance was also certified by music critics: “Very good”.
The music festival scene over there is even more frenzied.Before 2 o’clock in the morning, there were already people queuing up at Avenida Sun Yat-sen in Macau. Some of them came for TVXQ, some came to sue the five people, and more came for SEVENTEEN. Xiao Ou was one of the members in the queue, she told kk that the tickets that were finally obtained had to occupy the front row, it was too difficult to see svt, “Although I spent money, Macau is also very hot, but I really thank TMEA , you are all worthy to enjoy the Taimiao today, please continue this lineup next year, I will come once more. Who can not love svt, love the scene.”
Because the weather is too hot and humid, there are fans dancing on the spot while drinking Huoxiangzhengqi hydrolysis, which is definitely a famous scene. kk didn’t find this interviewee to have a chat, but just listening to other people’s narration already has a sense of imagery.
This is probably the special feature of 2023TMEA. It is made up of everyone involved. The stage, lighting, singers, fans… even the temperature of the day are part of every TMEA. And more than 550 hot searches on the whole network also witnessed the enthusiasm of music fans and the national influence of TMEA.
TMEA held by Tencent Music has gone through four consecutive sessions, and emergencies are inevitable. Especially this year, the music festival + music ceremony has four activities in two days, which can be called the extreme operation of the performance industry.Today, TMEA has become a landmark event in Macau.In the conversation with kk, most people are no strangers to this event no matter how many times they come to TMEA. Xiao Hei, who wears glasses, actually came to Macau with his family for a transit trip during the summer vacation, but when he saw TMEA’s lineup this year at the hotel and on the road, he changed his mind and decided to buy a ticket to watch it.
Perhaps, the annual TMEA Ceremony, in addition to awards and honors, has already become closer to a big gathering of the music industry. In the name of a grand ceremony, it builds a bridge of music, bringing together the best, most popular and most potential musicians from all over the world, all of Asia and all of China. Connect the music industry and musicians, connect singers and fans, connect people and people, together, feel the scene, feel the reality.
Those who like the scene will always like the scene, because it is a group of like-minded people, regardless of age and skin color, who are young and carnival together.The music industry needs a scene, and it also needs TMEA. Finally, let’s snap our fingers, let’s snap our fingers to resonate, for the music, for the scene, and for the reunion at TMEA next year.
