"No, is this okay?"
Li Jian stood there on the stage, feeling a little overwhelmed, confused, and unable to believe it.
Relying on the popularity of "Nocturne", the challenge was actually successful?
this……
Teacher He smiled and said: "The rules of the competition are just like this, which is completely reasonable and legal."
The criteria for selecting additional points will automatically pop up on the screen.
When showing the cover of "Nocturne", the total popularity of this issue exceeded 100 million for the first time.
"It's OK to add points. In the last round, some guests also got a lot of points for this item. So please don't worry, Mr. Li Jian."
"That's... okay."
Li Jian didn't know what to say for a moment. He didn't expect that he came here to challenge Lu Chen, but in the end he ended up benefiting from Lu Chen and "Nocturne".
This kind of operation was the first time Li Jianzhen had seen it.
He couldn't help feeling that the victory was "unfair".
…
Tiancheng Entertainment.
Zhao Ling was so confused: "Oh my god, what on earth is Han Youshang doing? He succeeded in his challenge just like that?"
Feng Nan was also stunned.
The moment when the score came out at 39.
He thought this time it was safe again.
Because he felt that Li Jian was unlikely to be able to sing "Tentative".
The result is a series that I never expected...
Because the cover song was so popular, it actually helped, and the challenge was successful? !
What the fuck is this bullshit rule?!
However, from Han Youshang's perspective, it is understandable that the guests were given small rewards to liven up the atmosphere.
"Alas, in short, one move is enough!"
Feng Nan and Zhao Ling looked at each other and felt helpless.
Sure enough, things won't go smoothly.
…
Now on stage.
Teacher He stepped down again.
Let's continue to give the stage to Li Jian.
The second song Li Jian chose was: "Chrysanthemum Terrace".
This is the most popular of the three recent Chinese style songs.
When the prelude of "Chrysanthemum Terrace" sounded.
There was no doubt that the scene cheered again.
But then I realized something was wrong.
It became quiet again in an instant.
The same goes for the live broadcast room.
Because of the little episode just now, the barrage of comments began to be restrained.
Seeing this scene, Han Youshang suddenly realized that this rule seemed to have a bug...
But it's definitely too late to correct it tonight.
You can only make adjustments next time.
First time planning a variety show.
Lack of experience is understandable.
You can only learn and improve at the same time.
…
As the melodious prelude of "Chrysanthemum Terrace" ended.
Li Jian, who had already put his mind into good shape, set sail again.
…
"The flowers have fallen in the evening, their splendor has faded away, their fate is unbearable in this withering world~"
…
This time, Li Jian moved the audience as soon as he opened his mouth.
The soft and beautiful voice and the eloquent singing skills perfectly complement and coincide with "Chrysanthemum Terrace".
Just listening to one sentence makes people feel unconsciously drawn into it.
…
[It sounds good! I can’t hold it in anymore, this sound is really good! ]
【I'm so depressed after opening my mouth! 】
[This song is tailor-made for Brother Jian! ]
[Not bad, this one feels much better than "Nocturne", the style is right! ]
[Brother Jian is really suitable for this kind of soothing and gentle slow songs! ]
There are neither too many nor too few comments in the comment section.
Li Jian's singing voice is like a breeze blowing on your face, and at this moment he sings out the melancholy and loneliness of "Chrysanthemum Terrace".
…
Backstage lounge.
Han Hong and his companions also looked intoxicated.
Han Hong said with emotion: "I guess no matter which of us choose this song, we may not feel the same way as Li Jian."
"Yes, this song is more suitable for him than ours. I even think it is not inferior to Lu Chen's original version." Sun Nan nodded and said, "If he can maintain this performance, Li Jian should be able to advance."
Wang Feng nodded.
If Li Jian advances successfully.
In fact, the pressure on them will be greater.
After all, if we really talk about seniority, Li Jian is still slightly inferior to them.
He advanced.
How could the three of them be willing to be inferior to others?
Especially Wang Feng.
Among the five, his purpose is the most special.
Therefore, there must be no mistakes! But Wang Feng was not worried.
He believed that as long as he performed normally, promotion would be easy! …
As Li Jian's singing voice spread throughout the venue, through the screen, and across the country.
Sijiucheng Song Association.
Qian Keli and Lu Jianguo sat on the sofa, tapping their fingertips lightly.
Even Lu Jianguo has been addicted to Lu Chen's traditional Chinese songs during this period.
I listen to it twice whenever I have time.
Especially the poem "Chrysanthemum Terrace" is his favorite.
"Hey, Old Qian, Lu Chen is not a permanent member of your singing association now. How about you help me make some connections and let Lu Chen write a song for our singing association? The price is negotiable. I will pay whatever the market price is, without hesitation."
"Come on, his songs are not in demand right now. He has rejected so many people who asked him to write songs for them. Do you still expect him to write songs for you?"
"So I asked you to act as a matchmaker?"
Qian Keli waved his hands: "Forget it, forget it. I can't help you with this. I invited Lu Chen here. Besides, he just arrived. I'll ask him to help with this and that. Do you think it's appropriate?"
Lu Jianguo: "What's inappropriate about this? It's not like I won't pay you."
Qian Keli was helpless: "Okay, okay, if you really want him to write, then go and negotiate on your own. Whether it can be successful is your business, I won't get involved. Anyway, I can't help you with this. No one is obligated to do me this favor."
Lu Jianguo: "Look at how stingy you are. Okay, okay, if you don't want to help, forget it."
Qian Keli: "It's not that I don't want to help, it's that your help is really unnecessary. What kind of songs do you think your performance association needs? Our singing association didn't say we need to write songs. Good steel should be used where it's needed most. There are people in Lu Chen's side who need it more than you!"
Lu Jianguo was stunned when he heard Li Jian singing the second half of the song: "What do you mean? Who needs it more than me?"
Qian Keli pondered for a moment, and seeing that Lu Jianguo was about to accuse him of speaking in an official tone, he quickly took a step ahead and laughed, "It's Lao Dan, the director of the Forbidden City. He has been running the Forbidden City very well in recent years, with all kinds of peripheral products being released continuously, and it's very popular. Two months ago, when I was having dinner with him, he asked me to recommend a singer to write a theme song for their Forbidden City. I recommended Han Lei to him at the time because he sings brilliantly and grandly, and he's quite suitable.
As a result, Lao Dan said no at the time. He said that his current operating strategy is to target younger people and the masses.
Han Lei is a good singer and has strong talent.
But it does not fit their current operating strategy.
Let me introduce you to a young one.
Lu Chen hadn't held a concert yet, so I couldn't decide who to recommend.
This matter was delayed.
Until two days ago, Ren Laodan contacted me again and said that he was very surprised after listening to the songs "Dong Feng Po" and "Ju Hua Tai". He asked me if I could help him to let Lu Chen write a similar traditional Chinese style song.
I didn't agree to it at that time.
But then I thought, this is something that can be done! It's not about helping Lao Dan.
But writing a theme song for the Forbidden City is not something that any ordinary singer can do.
This is a great honor.
It's an opportunity not to be missed.
What do you think?
Lu Jianguo: “…”
I was speechless for a moment, feeling that something was right, but also something was wrong.
But there is no doubt about one thing.
Writing songs for the Forbidden City is indeed much more important than his performance in the association!
The former is a cultural postcard of the entire nation.
There are so many artists who have been trying their best to collaborate with the Forbidden City but never had the opportunity.
"Okay, now that you've said that, what else can I say? But this is a good thing. If Lu Chen can write a theme song that matches the Forbidden City, that would be amazing. It's like writing a song for the country! Not only can it break the circle, but maybe this song can also go down in history and be passed down with the Forbidden City."
Qian Keli nodded: "That's right. But... this song is not easy to write."
Lu Jianguo: "Of course it's not easy to write! Since it's a theme song, the heritage and artistic conception of the Forbidden City must be presented through the lyrics. According to the old standards, it must also be in line with the current young people. It must combine the old and the new, highlight the new interests, and conform to the aesthetics of the times. This requires too much for the lyrics! The requirements for the music are too high! Not everyone can write it."
Qian Keli took a deep breath and frowned, "Yeah, now that you mention it, I don't know whether I should pull this thread and build this bridge."
Lu Jianguo waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about it first. You guys are not going to talk about this openly. It depends on Lu Chen himself. If he thinks it's okay, he will agree. If he doesn't have the time or energy, then find someone else."
Qian Keli nodded: "Well, I'll talk to Lu Chen first when I have time. It's not urgent now."
As he was speaking, Li Jian's performance on TV had unknowingly come to an end.
Li Jian is the best at mixing strong and weak sounds, and he put the last line of the lyrics of "Chrysanthemum Terrace": "Your shadow can't be cut off, leaving me alone on the lake~"
The singing is ethereal, yet extremely melancholy and moving.
In the director's lens.
There were many fans in the audience who shed tears on the spot.
“You sang well!”
Qian Keli and Lu Jianguo both gave applause.
…
At this moment, the stage is live.
As the melody faded, the audience burst into applause! Li Jian's performance of "Chrysanthemum Terrace" was perfect.
And the final score did not disappoint Li Jian.
——43 points! Grade A! The whole song is not very good except for the last high note of B4.
Li Jian had no choice but to lower the pitch and use falsetto.
It created a certain sense of division.
The rest is almost flawless.
And with Li Jian achieving two A-levels! …
At this moment, the live broadcast room exploded!
[Advanced! Brother Jian advanced! 】
[43 points! Awesome! The highest score of all singers so far! ]
[Terrible strength! Too strong! ]
[Tsk, you still have the nerve to play this, did you forget how "Nocturne" was promoted? ]
This matter was like a fishbone stuck in Li Jianfen's throat, leaving them speechless for a moment.
…
“Finally one advanced!”
Seeing this result, Lu Chen felt somewhat relieved.
…
At this time, on the stage, Teacher He couldn't help but excitedly said: "Congratulations to Teacher Li Jian for becoming the first challenge guest to successfully advance! Regardless of whether you succeed in the next song or not, you will enter the final challenge tomorrow night!"
There was loud applause from the audience.
Li Jian asked softly: "Do I still need to sing "Tentative"?"
Teacher He nodded: "Of course! This is a must-sing song."
Li Jian: “…”
I understand. You can avoid the first day, but you can’t avoid the fifteenth.
No matter what, they all have to be "anxious"...
Monday is the busiest day.
Still writing.
For this part, I will write it step by step according to the designed steps.
Please stay tuned for more!
