Chapter 46: Tone Deaf
As soon as a beautiful melody came on, Xu Zhao's eyes lit up and he immediately raised his hand and the music paused.
The other five people were still in a state of confusion. The melody sounded familiar, but also seemed a little different. They couldn't remember what it was at all.
Xu Zhao has listened to this song no less than a hundred times.
She knew it as soon as the prelude came on.
I just didn’t expect that the program crew’s preferences were quite niche.
When this game was first designed, the production team selected a lot of popular songs as the question bank, but later felt that these questions were too easy for these stars.
So someone suggested adding some niche songs into it, of course this was also the proposer's little idea.
【? ? ? 】
[Did anyone hear it?] The prelude is only five seconds in, and you can already hear it? 】
[This young lady is so amazing, I have never heard of this song before. 】
[I figured it out so quickly, I wonder if he stole the question. 】
I've heard this song! Sounds very good! Everybody go and listen! 】
Zheng Wen thought no one would recognize this song, but he didn't expect that someone would guess it as soon as the rhythm came out. He asked, "What's the name of this song?"
"Turn around!" Xu Zhao answered very affirmatively. This song had accompanied her for a long time. She would listen to it every time she took the bus after get off work.
"Correct answer!" Zheng Wen: "Sing a line of the lyrics. If you can't sing it, let the next person answer."
If Xu Zhao can't sing it, the song title is already known, and he can get the points by just singing the lyrics.
Xu Zhao pursed his lips, feeling a little embarrassed to speak.
"Can you sing the lyrics?" Zheng Wen saw that Xu Zhao was slow to sing the lyrics, so he thought she couldn't sing and started counting down, "Three..."
"Director Zheng, wait a minute. Let me prepare myself mentally! Um... everyone should prepare themselves mentally as well."
Zheng Wen:? ? ?
What kind of mental preparation is needed to sing a line of lyrics?
Xu Zhao took a deep breath, exhaled the foul air, and then she covered her face and began to sing: "The mist and rain went into half a cup of wine, leaving only the withered lotus leaves, who is watching outside the building?"
Zheng Wen, who had heard this song in advance, was full of questions. There was nothing wrong with the lyrics sung by Xu Zhao, but the melody seemed a little wrong.
He looked at the script in his hand and the lines that Xu Zhao had just sung. The lyrics were fine. Although they sounded awkward, he had to admit that she sang correctly, "Xu Zhao scores one point."
The other five people who had never heard this song were also confused. Was the song originally sung like this or was it just so bad?
【As a loyal listener of this song, I would like to say again that everyone should listen to the original version. 】
[I just searched for this song, it is really nice, and the girl sings it in a very stylish way. 】
[The person above, you are being too euphemistic. Her style is just out of tune! 】
Xu Zhao's hands never left her face. She was too ashamed to see her fans and friends again.
"Well, I'm tone-deaf, so... I didn't mean to hurt anyone's ears."
Xu Zhao's face was covered, but her skin was fair, and her neck and ears had already turned red, so it could not be covered at all.
If it weren't for getting better clues, she would rather be a mute in this game.
Jin Suiran hugged Xu Zhao beside her and said, "It's just tone-deafness. It's innate and not something you can decide. Besides, you have such a smart brain. If you can sing and dance, how can ordinary people like us live?"
Comforted by Jin Suiran, Xu Zhao slowly moved his hands away and stroked both sides of his cheeks. His palms were hot, and his face must be red at this moment.
"It's just that my singing is not good. When I debuted, many people also said that my singing was not good."
Qiao Zhijing also turned around to comfort Xu Zhao, telling her not to be embarrassed. "You need to listen more and practice more to sing, and sing boldly. Only in this way can you make progress."
Although I really want to tell everyone that she is a natural talent, she has listened to a lot of songs, practiced, and occasionally hummed along, but she just can't sing the real tune.
However, seeing so many people comforting her, Xu Zhao felt warm in her heart. The partners this time were all easy to get along with and cared about her a lot, which made her wonder how she would cheat them later!
Her conscience pang for a few seconds.
Looking at other people's expressions, Zheng Wen thought that except Xu Zhao, no one else had probably heard this song before. Unexpectedly, the song carefully selected by the program team was not difficult for Xu Zhao at all.
"Now let's listen to the full version of this song."
A beautiful and melodious ancient song sounded in the carriage.
When the familiar melody sounded, Xu Zhao felt as if his whole heart was being gently held. The song was melodious and very beautiful.
“This song is quite nice.”
"Yeah, yeah. I've liked this song for a while now, and I play it on repeat every day." Xu Zhao looked very satisfied.
Jin Suiran asked: "This song is quite niche, not many people know it, Sister Zhao Zhao, how did you know it?"
The song hadn't ended yet and everyone was listening to the music in a relaxed manner. Jin Suiran took the opportunity to chat with Xu Zhao.
Xu Zhao did not hide it, "This is a song sung by a little internet celebrity. I like listening to him sing. When I am not busy, I will hang out in his live broadcast room. Listening to him sing gives me motivation to work!"
"Sister Zhao Zhao, if you have time, please recommend this little internet celebrity's live broadcast room to me. He has a very clear voice and sings beautifully."
"OK!"
A song ends.
Zheng Wen: "Okay, get ready for the second song!"
With Xu Zhao's proof, everyone felt more confident.
When the melody of the second song sounded, the six of them pricked up their ears, afraid that they would miss a small part and not hear the song.
Half a minute after the melody sounded, Qiao Zhijing suddenly raised his hand and the song paused. It was already the second song and everyone was familiar with the process.
Qiao Zhijing said directly: "The title of the song is 'I Have Changed, I Haven't Changed'," and then he sang a few lines without the need for Zheng Wen to cue him.
After he sang this song, Tang Qianshuo remembered the song and started singing along.
After the song was finished, Lin Yuan led the applause.
Xu Zhao looked at the two people who had just sung with envy. She wished she could sing as beautifully as them. Thinking of this, her eyes dimmed a lot.
[Actor Qiao sings so well, and brother Qian Shuo’s final harmony is also so nice! 】
[If you can sing, sing more. This is a hundred times better than Xu Zhao’s singing just now! 】
[No need to criticize those above. Everyone has their own strengths. I hate it most when those of you who can distinguish five tones laugh at those of us who are tone-deaf. 】
The barrage of comments suddenly became noisy because of this topic.
Some people say that if you are tone-deaf, you shouldn’t sing because it will be embarrassing to sing.
Some people also say that singing is everyone's freedom and tone-deaf people should not be ridiculed or discriminated against.
The production team did not expect that the first hot search on Weibo for this program would be caused by Xu Zhao's tone-deafness.
