Chapter 646 How can this guy be so mean!
Lin Fan in the backstage didn't know that his small "delayed payment" behavior had accidentally hurt a large number of colleagues. At this time, Lin Fan was making final preparations for the opening performance.
Zhang Xinlan looked at Lin Fan, who was surrounded by staff at the stage entrance, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
The first time I saw Lin Fan was on the stage of "Morning Star" two years ago. At that time, Lin Fan was young and ignorant, like a clean boy who accidentally entered the entertainment industry. He was naive and out of tune with this circle.
Later, also on the stage of the Golden Melody Awards, Zhang Xinlan personally presented Lin Fan with the Best Newcomer Award. Later, Lin Fan did variety shows, filmed movies, filmed TV series, and went abroad to compete in charts. Each of these was his first time, but he achieved enviable results.
Lin Fan, who had shed his natural ignorance, was now radiating light, as if he was born for this stage, to be a superstar that everyone would pay attention to. He became the focus of everyone's attention wherever he went.
He is obviously a newcomer who has only been in this circle for two years.
Zhang Xinlan thought about what she had achieved in the two years since her official debut, but after thinking for a long time, she couldn't think of any honors that she could show off.
Forget it, comparing yourself to others will only make you angry. It’s better not to compare yourself with Lin Fan, this cheating guy. Otherwise, Zhang Xinlan is worried that she will really be pissed off by her useless self back then.
Lin Fan noticed Zhang Xinlan's gaze and took the initiative to come over and say hello: "Sister Lan."
Zhang Xinlan shook off her inner thoughts and responded with a smile: "How are your preparations going? Are you nervous?"
"Everything is ready." Lin Fan said with a smile.
He wasn't that nervous. After all, he was driving a cheat car and didn't have to worry about any car accidents, so Lin Fan seemed very relaxed.
Zhang Xinlan couldn't help but sigh again: "You have a really good attitude."
Although Zhang Xinlan is already a well-known first-line female singer, she still feels a little nervous when she thinks that the people sitting in the audience will be senior members of the music industry.
Not to mention those first-line singers, the kings and queens of singing, the big names in composing and writing lyrics, and many national treasure-level musicians, the job of the opening guest is indeed quite stressful.
Lin Fan comforted him: "After all, as long as you sing the song well, it will be fine."
Zhang Xinlan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized: "You are right, we are all singers, we just need to sing well."
…
At the award ceremony, in the dim environment, the host's voice came from the stage:
"Let us welcome tonight's guest performer, Lin Fan!"
On the stage, a huge screen lit up. In a beautiful landscape with mountains and clear water, two little butterflies were flapping their wings and flying freely among the flowers and plants.
Then, against a background of soft string music, the flute played a picture of bright spring days with singing birds and fragrant flowers, and the stage lights came on.
Lin Fan didn't know when he was standing in the center of the stage. He gently placed a violin on his left shoulder and held the bow in his right hand. At the moment when the bow and strings intersected, a poetic love story flowed out.
It caught everyone's ears at once!
Under the stage, the musicians who heard this song for the first time couldn't help but exchange glances with each other in surprise, confirming that the amazement in each other's eyes was exactly the same as their own.
"What is this song? What is Lin Fan doing? It's just an opening performance. Do we need to come up with something so amazing?"
"This is too much. You can't waste your talent like this! This is a pop music awards ceremony. You're putting on such a grand show. It's really discouraging!"
"This song is so beautiful! But it doesn't seem to be pop music, it sounds like the first part of a concerto!"
"The harp serves as a prelude, and the violin solo seems so simple, sweet, and profound, like a sincere and sweet love prologue. Is this Lin Fan's new song?"
Many industry bigwigs came to the scene, especially the people on the jury. Each of them is a big shot in the music world. They can tell the quality of a song just by taking one listen.
Although Lin Fan's performance was a violin solo, other string instruments, flutes, harps, cellos, and other instruments played in the background, making it look like a complete concerto! However, the award ceremony was not suitable for playing the complete concerto, so Lin Fan only took a small section of it as the opening of tonight's performance.
But just this one clip is enough to shock everyone!
The piece begins with a few plucked strings, followed by the clear sound of a flute, as if a layer of clouds is slowly lifted, the bright spring light shines on the earth, and butterflies dance. The story begins from this place.
Then, the violin played the theme, two long and two short notes plus an ending sentence, which was long and distant, as if the protagonist of the story was right beside him at this moment, telling the story of the past to everyone in the audience.
The violin represents the heroine, and the cello added in the background represents the hero. The melody played by the cello dialogues with the solo violin. The emotion of this piece of music is sincere and gentle, indicating that the two people are deeply in love and have a spiritual connection.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
After the dialogue, the orchestra's ensemble reproduced the theme of love, fully demonstrating Guo Shi's unswerving belief in love. Then the solo violin played the transition music, ending with a lively and bright allegro. This cheerful and light allegro formed a sharp contrast with the gentle and affectionate love theme.
The whole performance is only a few minutes long, but it tells a beautiful and intoxicating love story. The whole song has a beautiful, pleasant melody and is rich in connotation, and it also incorporates the performance techniques of traditional opera.
It might be difficult for ordinary people to distinguish them carefully, but with so many music big names at the scene, they could be heard almost as soon as the show started.
"Is this the 'passing' technique in traditional Yue Opera?"
"Yes, this is a kind of 'all-match transition' from Yue Opera, a transition that you never get tired of hearing, but it has been cut."
"This song is incredible! Old Zhou, I finally understand why you switched to Lin Fan. He's such a talented young man, who is good at both pop and traditional music. If I were in his place, I would want to switch too!" Meng Anping nudged Zhou Yue with his elbow.
Zhou Yue patted the non-existent dust on his arm in disdain, his eyes never leaving Lin Fan on the stage: "Tsk, you talk as if we want you just because you came to our Earthling Studio!"
Meng Anping: ...How can this guy be so mean! When the song ended, there was warm applause from the audience.
Hui Qiaodan was so excited that she clapped her hands and leaned close to Xia Yan's ear, "What song is this? Yanyan, you must have heard it before. Quickly tell me a spoiler! Is it from Brother Fan's new album? Or is it some big hit that he is going to use to do something big?"
Xia Yan, who had heard this piece of music countless times, smiled proudly: "This piece of music is called "Butterfly Lovers"!"
