Chapter 117 The song that stood out in the battle of the gods in the music scene in 2004
"What are the rules?"
Looking at the flashing yellow light on the stage, Lin Zhixing was confused again and didn't understand what had just happened.
Some singers who were familiar with the rules were surprised when they saw this scene.
"Teacher Huang Xiao actually used the right to increase votes for him?"
"That is a one-time privilege. Does Mr. Huang approve of his creation?"
“That’s amazing!”
Zhao Weiwei applauded Feng Qi Wu Tong in front of the camera and emphasized to the camera: "They are the first contestants in this show to receive extra votes, which is great!"
She watched Fengqi Wutong grow up little by little and has feelings for them. She hopes they can go further on this stage.
Moreover, as their former mentor, I also have a sense of responsibility and am willing to help them more.
It's different for Guo Jiahe. When he saw the special judges giving them extra votes, he felt even more uncomfortable than having his own votes deducted. He couldn't believe that this song was chosen.
Did Wang Cong bribe this judge?
After seeing the extra votes, the surprise singer Nan Fangkai frowned slightly. He never expected that this newcomer who just came out of the Novice Village could be favored by a special judge.
…
In the studio.
All the surprise singers launched surprise attacks, and the special judges added votes, which maximized the program effect.
Director Hong Bo looked at the increasing number of online users and couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praised Ji Lei beside him, "This is really a good seedling. No wonder he won the championship in your show!"
“They are truly an amazing combination.”
Ji Lei smiled and nodded, feeling even more excited about Feng Qi Wu Tong.
In the recording hall.
See the yellow lights flashing on the stage.
The five hundred judges also found it unbelievable. The melody of this song was indeed very inspiring and made people feel emotional, but many people did not understand the lyrics, and even if they did, they did not think there was anything good about it.
The host Zhao Weiwei came on stage and said, "Thank you for the wonderful performance of Feng Qi Wu Tong. Let me explain to you that the flashing red light on the stage means that the singer has been challenged by a surprise singer, and the flashing yellow light means that the singer has received additional votes from the judges."
"Before the surprise singer goes on stage, please ask Mr. Huang Xiao to tell us the reason for the extra votes."
Huang Xiao is fifty years old this year. His hair and beard have become much whiter, and he has tied his hair into a short ponytail. This look gives people a sense of class.
He nodded, glanced at the lyrics he had just written down on the white paper, looked at Lin Zhixing on the stage, raised the microphone and praised: "This is a great love song!"
When these words were spoken, many people frowned, including the judges.
"It has mountains and martial arts, isn't it a martial arts song?"
"Is he a professional judge? He didn't even realize this was a love song!"
After hearing this.
Lin Zhixing in the center of the stage raised his eyebrows in surprise. This judge was quite professional. He actually heard the main theme of the song.
Huang Xiao heard the questioning voice behind him. He smiled and explained, "In addition to the chivalrous and tender feelings of this song, a picture appeared in my mind."
"Martial arts are like mountains that rise high into the clouds. There is no end to the mountains that are higher than the other. The great heroes of the martial arts world have understood this truth. The highest martial arts are not the best in the world. The best thing in the world is always true love."
"I've heard a lot of love songs, like 'You love me, I love you', 'You marry me, I marry you', but these lyrics don't have any flavor."
"After listening to this song, I think it is amazing. No matter how profound the love words are, they are not as good as this one. May you always be with me in this world!"
What is professionalism? This is professionalism!
"It's just as I understood it!"
Lin Zhixing gave Huang Xiao a full score in his heart.
He praised it with the adjective "no matter how profound the love words are", and Lin Zhixing didn't feel embarrassed at all. Who is the lyricist? That's James Wong! Master James Wong graduated from the Chinese Department of the University of Hong Kong. He is familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics. He often uses semi-classical and semi-vernacular lyrics when writing lyrics. He and Wong Wai-man are known as the two great writers in Hong Kong! Fang Wenshan is a fan of Lin Xi. Lin Xi, who is known as the contemporary lyricist, highly respects James Wong. James Wong's status in the lyric world is like a godfather, a real top-tier lyricist.
Regarding the song "Hello, World", it was the only song in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes Trilogy" that won the "Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs of the Year". Even the well-known "Tie Xue Dan Xin" did not achieve this achievement.
These judges really deserve some praise for this song! "So, after the song was sung, I pressed the vote button without hesitation. Fengqi Wutong hopes you can keep working hard!"
Huang Xiao put down the microphone after he finished speaking. After a few seconds of silence, there was thunderous applause.
The questioning voice just now disappeared, and another voice appeared.
"As expected of Master Huang, his analytical ability is so strong. I am impressed!"
"Oh my god, Master Huang praised him. It seems that Brother Oh Ye's lyrics have improved again!"
"According to this analysis, this song is perfect for a martial arts drama theme song. After a great hero becomes famous in the martial arts world, he retires with his lover!"
Not only did the audience think it was amazing, but some judges on the jury also changed their views on the song because of Huang Xiao's comments.
"Thank you Mr. Huang Xiao for your comments. Now let's invite the surprise singer to the stage to sing. Who is this surprise singer? Please watch the VCR!"
After Feng Qi Wu Tong left the stage, the screen in the center of the stage lit up. When the audience saw the appearance of the surprise singer, there was another commotion in the audience.
"Wow, Brother Kai is here, my favorite rock singer, and he's going to sing my favorite rock song!"
"Come on, let's get the scene going!"
Nan Fangkai, who has dreadlocks and wears denim clothes, is a rock singer. This is his first time appearing on TV and his main stage is a music festival.
He is extremely popular at music festivals. Whenever he attends a festival, the tickets are sold out in seconds. When it comes to his performance, no one watches the performances on other stages. They all crowd in to listen to his performance.
A rhythmic accompaniment sounded.
Nan Fangkai held the microphone in one hand and raised the other hand high, saying, "3, 2, 1, come on!"
“Are dreams just fantasies?”
“Why is it so desirable?”
He sang only two lines and already got the audience who liked him excited. When the camera panned over, one audience member even took off his coat and waved his hands vigorously to sing along.
Singer's waiting room.
“So hi!”
“The audience sang along!”
The singers nodded and beat the rhythm to the music, and completed the program team's task of supporting the audience very well.
Lin Zhixing looked at the surprise singer's strong stage control on the screen, pursed his lips, and felt a little unsure.
The singer’s control of the stage at the festival is first-rate, and this song is his most popular, which has the added bonus of sentimentality.
However, this is a new song of mine, and it's in Cantonese, which many people can't understand, so it's a bit of a natural disadvantage. I don't know if the judges will have a more favorable impression of it from a creative perspective.
…
"Train heading south"
"Train heading south"
After three consecutive songs with a strong atmosphere, the atmosphere on the scene became really heated up.
After the song, host Zhao Weiwei returned to the stage and said, "Now, please ask the 500 public judges to vote for the competing singers and surprise singers. The voting results will be announced at the end of the show!"
After the short voting session, the concert continued.
The next singer to perform was Taicheng rapper Pan Shuai.
He sang a rap song that he was good at, which was indeed of first-rate standard. What’s particularly good about his song is that it wasn’t dirty at all, and it didn’t contain any complaints or negative energy.
After him is the "Cool Cat Group", which consists of Zhao Weiwei and her partner Yu Jiang. They have the feeling of Yuan Chengjie and Qi Wei, and their songs after their debut are mainly lyrical.
The two of them cooperated very well, and the handsome man and beautiful woman sang love songs, and it looked like they were dating on stage.
The singer after Ku Miao is "Sun Haoan", an artist under Haisen Records.
He is really good at singing ballads, with full emotional involvement, and his voice is smoky and has a sense of experience, which makes him good at impressing the audience.
The last singer to perform was Guo Jiahe.
On this stage, he truly demonstrated what it means to be a top star. He just sang an ordinary ballad and the female audiences went crazy.
He also received an extra vote from Wei Donglin, a former judge of the Spring Festival Music Gala.
Another singer who received extra votes was the last singer to perform. She was Wang Jiawei, known as the "Big Devil". Her iron lung shocked the audience, judges, and singers.
The judge, Lu Liangshan, who is also a vocal music professor, commented on her "impeccable singing".
Singers waiting room.
"As expected of the Great Devil, his skills are really high!"
“This song directly put me under a lot of pressure!”
The singers gave thumbs up and praised Wang Jiawei's singing.
"Dove, what do you think of her singing?"
Shocked, Lin Zhixing shook his head and turned to ask Song Ge who was watching intently beside him.
Song Ge didn't take her eyes off the screen. She gave a thumbs up and said with emotion: "She is the best singer I have ever seen in real life."
Lin Zhixing nodded after listening to this. This was the strongest singer he had ever seen. "Do you think we can beat her?"
“It’s difficult.”
Song Ge replied without thinking.
Lin Zhixing then asked: "What if you compete with her alone?"
Song Ge held his chin and thought for a while, then nodded gently, "Maybe there's a chance."
"???"
Lin Zhixing looked at her dimly and blew on his clenched fist. "I'll give you a chance to reorganize your words."
"Hey, I'm just teasing you!"
Song Ge smiled and shook her head, "Let's not think too far ahead, just take every step carefully."
"Okay!"
…
About five minutes later, the program director Hong Bo came to the singer's waiting room with an envelope.
At the same time, the live broadcast room turned off the stage screen, and the audience in the recording hall could see the final ranking of the contestants through the stage screen.
The singers stopped talking and waited for the director to announce the rankings.
After some advertising words, Hong Bo opened the envelope and announced: "Let me first tell you the votes for the competing singers and the surprise singers!"
Lin Zhixing's Adam's apple rolled and he felt nervous.
"For this match, we received a total of 490 votes, of which Nan Fangkai received 250 votes and Feng Qi Wutong received 240 votes."
Ah? Was the surprise attack successful? This was the first time that Lin Zhixing was defeated after traveling through time. He didn't expect it to be on the stage of "I Am the King of Singers". Is this stage really not a place for a novice? Song Ge frowned, and was also very surprised by this result.
Nan Fangkai excitedly raised his hands to celebrate.
The comments in the live broadcast room exploded, especially Feng Qi Wutong's fans, who spoke out to express their dissatisfaction.
"The top lyricist Huang Xiao gave such a big thumbs up to "The World Is Always Good". How could such a good song lose? Is there something fishy going on with the production team?"
"Don't you judges know how to listen to music? Do you have chicken feathers in your ears?"
"Fuck, if Feng Qi Wu Tong gets eliminated, I won't watch this show anymore!"
…
"but!"
Hong Bo smiled and changed the subject, "Because of Judge Huang Xiao's 10 extra votes, the votes are now tied! The winner must be decided, so I decided to let the six competing singers except Feng Qi Wu Tong vote to decide the winner!"
Lin Zhixing breathed a sigh of relief, and the fist in his trouser pocket hardened. He was panting heavily.
Netizens were very angry after being fooled.
At this moment, many people expressed warm and friendly greetings to Hongbo's family in the barrage.
The staff handed each of the six contestants a card and a pen, and after they finished writing, they collected the cards and gave them to Hong Bo.
Hong Bo glanced at the result, smiled and nodded, "Very good, there is no tie this time, Nan Fangkai got 4 votes, Feng Qi Wutong got 2 votes, congratulations to Nan Fangkai for his successful surprise attack!"
Applause broke out in the waiting room, and Nanfang Kai stood up with a smile and bowed to the camera, thanking his fans for their support.
Although he had comforted himself that it was just for fun on this stage, Lin Zhixing still couldn't help feeling a little disappointed when the result came out.
This feeling of loss might be the reluctance to accept defeat after the classic work of the previous life was defeated? "Alas!"
Zhao Weiwei sighed softly, and looking at the two people who looked a little depressed, her mood also became depressed.
"snort!"
Guo Jiahe smiled secretly in his heart.
Let you go crazy, you can still stay on this stage for one more episode, then pack your bags and get out!
"Now I will announce tonight's rankings!"
Hong Bo cleared his throat and announced: "Eighth place Feng Qi Wu Tong, seventh place Nan Fang Kai, sixth place Su Xin, fifth place Sun Hao An, fourth place Pan Shuai, third place Ku Miao, second place Guo Jia He, first place Wang Jia Wei!"
After the results were announced, fans from all over the live broadcast room began to congratulate their idols.
No matter what the contestants were thinking, they all had smiles on their faces, congratulating and encouraging each other.
The outcome is uncertain, you and I are both dark horses.
Lin Zhixing was taking deep breaths to adjust his mood when the system prompt sound suddenly rang in his mind.
【bite!】
[The system task has been completed at the simple difficulty level. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the song "Our Love". ]
At the same time, all the memories about this song were brought back.
The song "Our Love" was sung by the band F.I.R. The greatness of this song dates back to 2004.
In 2004, Faye Wong made an arrogant speech at the Golden Melody Awards ceremony: I know I can sing, so I fully appreciate the Golden Melody Awards judges' recognition of me.
The Chinese music scene this year was like a battle of gods. Jay Chou personally took charge of the album "Rewind" tailor-made for Jolin Tsai, and the album was sold out as soon as it was released.
The song "Love You" by the Sweetheart Leader has entered the hearts of young boys and girls, as well as "Jiangnan" by JJ Lin and "Qilixiang" by Jay Chou, each of which is a classic.
But the limelight of this year did not belong to them. A band called F.I.R, which consisted of three new members, emerged out of nowhere and conquered the music scene with just one song.
It tied with Faye Wong for first place on the Top Ten Golden Songs Chart, and the album sold over 900,000 copies in four months, second only to Jay Chou's "Qilixiang". It can be said that it reached the peak as soon as it was released.
This song is quite powerful!
In fact, this is a song sung by a man and a woman. If you listen carefully, you can hear the male voice, but the female voice is too prominent, as if only the girl is singing.
It was a good thing to get this song, but after considering the interests involved, Lin Zhixing curled his lips.
If I sing this song, won't it give the audience the stereotype that "Oh Yeah Brother" can only lie down and do nothing? ...
The camera in the live broadcast room suddenly turned.
It moved to the cubicle where the surprise singers were. Fortunately, the program crew reminded us, otherwise the audience would have forgotten about it.
There are two surprise singers! Why didn't they come on stage?
"Why didn't you launch a surprise attack here?"
The staff asked what the netizens were thinking.
The female singer wearing a rabbit mask smiled and replied, "The performances of the singers in this round are too strong. To be safe, I want to wait until the next round to launch a surprise attack."
The male singer wearing a wolf mask gave a similar answer.
In the live broadcast room, netizens were discussing the issue, but their ideas were similar.
"Why do I feel like they are waiting for the next round of Feng Qi Wu Tong?"
"That should be the case. They know how to pick on the weak!"
"Are you going to beat Brother Ohye to death?"
