Jolin Tsai Yi Lin, Jam Hsiao Jing Teng, F.I.R, Khalil Fang Da Tong, Huang Hsiao Hu etc all belong to the Warner Music and has been confirmed to be not registering for the Golden Melody Award next year. The president of the Asian area Chen Ze Shan expressed “The problem with Golden Melody Award has not been settled for years. The categories are unclear and the judging isn’t standardised. Thus, we will not be submitting any entries, an attempt to get the Government Information Office to focus on this issue.” He did not inform the singers though and when they heard of the news, they were all shocked, especially Huang Hsiao Hu and F.I.R who have not released any album for eight and two years respectively. Warner Music has often been a Golden Melody Award winner. Jolin Tsai won Best Female Singer before, F.I.R and Huang Hsiao Hu are both Best Newcomers while Jam Hsiao and Khalil Fang has both been nominated. Chen Ze Shan revealed that they have a headache over registering each year. For example, should F.I.R be registered under “Band” or “Group” and the judging criteria varies every year.
