The latest Grammy Awards nominee list had been released.

Best New Artist of the Year.

Best Composer.
Jiang Siming's name appeared in all five awards.
Each of these five awards carried enormous weight. They weren't some meaningless minor prizes.
Winning even one of them would be a lifelong honor, representing absolute dominance in that field!
Although the five awards were only nominations for now, they also meant that Jiang Siming had a great chance of advancing to the next step: becoming a finalist.
And after that came the actual win.
One person nominated for five major awards—and not just any awards, but the world's top music awards, the Grammy Awards.
This had left Chinese music fans completely stunned.
Was my idol really this famous in the West too?
This was giving Chinese music an incredible boost in prestige!
Jiang Siming seemed unusually calm when he heard the news. If it had been his first time being nominated for an award, he might have been a little excited.
He had felt pretty fresh when he was first nominated for the Golden Melody Awards.
But that novelty had long since worn off. Even though the award had been upgraded to the Grammys, it held little appeal to him.
If Jiang Lan hadn't told him that Chinese fans were eagerly waiting to see him win, he wouldn't even have considered going.
What mattered most to Jiang Siming wasn't the Grammy Awards, but the upcoming individual World Championship
