Chapter 88 Xiao Shiyi Niang's Affirmation (Two in One)
"Xiao Shiyi Niang wrote the lyrics?"
"My goodness, did I see that correctly just now?"
"Why? Why would a top lyricist give lyrics to a rookie who is barely a novice? How much did he pay for it?"
"What the hell is this? Just give out the top four trophies!"
The screen of the live broadcast room was filled with comments, and the audience felt it was incredible. This number of comments was unprecedented in the competition from the preliminary round to now.
Tutor seat.
Zhao Weiwei and Shen Fei widened their eyes in surprise and looked at each other. Neither of them said anything, but it seemed as if what they wanted to say was written on their faces.
When Dong Dehua saw the name, the corners of his mouth curled up.
Eleventh Lady, we are old acquaintances. I once had a song that was shortlisted for the Golden Melody Chart, and it was written by her.
I once wanted to invite her to work together again, but she refused. She was only willing to write songs for her husband, and she relied on her own songs to make her husband a first-line singer.
As a superstar in people's eyes, he couldn't even invite himself, but he actually wrote a song for an unknown contestant. It's a bit confusing.
Seeing that the lyricist was Xiao Shiyi Niang, Wang Cong frowned and felt a little worried about Lin Zhixing.
Although his creative ability is also very strong, "May We Live Together Forever" demonstrated his superb ability in poetry creation, and "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" was so beautiful that it saved the lifeless video ringtone market.
But in the field of love songs, especially sad love songs, they are at the top level, so it is very difficult to win.
Fortunately, this is not the final. The fifth place in the last issue has lost its competitiveness, so it should be no problem for it to squeeze into the top four.
Guo Jiahe turned his head to glance at the audience who were whispering to each other, and the corners of his mouth gradually curled up.
This is the influence of Xiao Shiyi Niang. You will fall in love with her after listening to her singing.
If only she could write a song for me too...
"Baby, let's go!"
About to enjoy the highlight moment brought by this stage, Li Zhenzhen's eyes showed excitement, and she stood up and patted her boyfriend's arm.
"Um."
Zhang Long stood up, but did not leave immediately. Instead, he turned his head to look at the handsome group in the second row. The corners of his mouth curved downward, his face full of mockery and contempt.
It seemed to be saying that if you treat us as opponents to be eliminated, you have picked the wrong people.
It is difficult to change one's nature, and the last time I was slapped in the face was because the comparison object had not yet appeared. This time, the comparison object is already a loser, and the last situation will not happen again.
Mocking before even starting to sing, this is the confidence in the singing later!
"Oh my god, this kid is mocking us?"
"It was Xiao Shiyi Niang's words that gave him confidence, ah!"
"There's nothing we can do about mocking them. If the lyricist was someone else, we could still expect them to not perform as well as we did. Now that's basically impossible."
The three members of the Handsome Band were very angry about this, but they could do nothing about it. They just hoped that some other talented singers would suppress them and eliminate them! "Welcome the Talented Man and Pretty Woman Band to bring us their original song "Unreachable". Please welcome them with applause!"
Amidst warm applause, Zhang Long and Li Zhenzhen walked onto the stage hand in hand and stood under the spotlight.
Their fans posted comments of support.
"Brother, I was wrong. I didn't expect that the famous lyricist you mentioned on Weibo was really a famous lyricist!"
"Brother Long is awesome. He even invited Eleventh Lady. His connections are incredible!"
"I love Shiyi Niang's lyrics so much, come on Brother Long and Sister Zhen!"
Player seats.
There are also some I don’t know.
"Who is Xiao Shiyi Niang?"
"Xiao Shiyi Niang, you don't know? Have you never heard of "The Snow Keeps Falling"? "
“No.”
"It's normal that you haven't heard of it. Your father should be familiar with it. She is very good at composing sad songs."
"In other words, this regrettable topic is a track she is familiar with?"
"You can say that she uses flowery words, but her words are not flowery, nor are her ideas profound. She is good at using simple words to touch people's hearts."
Lin Zhixing listened to the two members of the Sunshine Youth Group chatting beside him, and based on what they said, he sketched out the characteristics in his mind.
Simple lyrics touch people's hearts. Is she the female version of Li Zongsheng?
Then I'll have to take a closer look.
Lin Zhixing leaned back in his chair, hugged his shoulders and looked at the stage carefully.
A low musical accompaniment sounded.
The two people who had been thinking with their heads down for a long time finally spoke.
"In the past, people always said that the moon under the sea is the moon in the sky"
"The person in front of you is the one you love"
“Later, I realized that the moon from the bottom of the sea cannot be fished out.”
"The one you love is out of reach"
The opening line points out the theme of the song, "Unreachable", and depicts a person who is unable to get the love he wants. The listeners, who are also unable to get the love he wants, have their eyes light up when they hear these two lines.
"As expected of Xiao Shiyi Niang, the first two lines are both rhyming and very engaging!"
"I listen to every song of hers, this flavor is definitely hers!"
“It’s a beautiful song too!”
After only hearing this beginning, the audience was convinced that Xiao Shiyi Niang wrote the lyrics.
The five mentors were also listening very carefully at this time, and they all wanted to hear what this poem written by Xiao Shiyi Niang was like.
"If we meet"
“Not intentional”
“Maybe we’ll meet again”
"It only exists in my dreams"
Some viewers were touched by this phrase.
"Yes, some people don't actively seek opportunities to meet the person they like, so they can only meet in dreams."
"The lyrics are amazing. I'm already moved. It seems like I was deliberately looking for opportunities to meet her every day. Is this song written for me?"
"There's an elephant in my eye, woo woo."
Player seats.
The three members of the handsome group sighed, it seemed that losing to them was a foregone conclusion.
Lin Zhixing listened to the song with a frown on his face.
This song always feels a bit weird, as if the lyrics are intended to be sentimental, but the music doesn't quite bring out the feeling of the lyrics, only 60% of the way through.
"Dove, what do you think of this song?"
Song Ge pursed her lips and expressed her opinion, "I don't think the song we sang is as good."
Lin Zhixing raised his eyebrows, smiled and gave a thumbs up, applauding the answer.
What song is "Coral Sea"?
That's from Jay Chou's album "November's Arrogance".
That year, he won the Most Popular Duet Golden Song Award at the Global Chinese Music Chart for six times, as well as the Top Ten Golden Songs Award at the Pop Music Awards.
It's not comparable to songs like Blue Star.
In the director's office.
“That’s awesome!”
Chief Director Ji Lei looked at the skyrocketing number of online users with an expression of disbelief.
It’s hard to imagine that the data soared from 2.8 million to 3 million because of a lyricist.
…
"People we met in the crowd"
"Eventually disappeared in the crowd"
After a long and graceful note, the song, which had aroused the audience's anticipation, ended.
Before the accompaniment ended, applause broke out from the audience.
"Awesome! The lyrics are indeed written by Xiao Shiyi Niang. They raise the level of the singer to a higher level."
"I think this is their moment of deification!"
Feeling the applause from the audience, Zhang Long and Li Zhenzhen's eyes revealed excitement and excitement. After looking at each other, the two hugged each other warmly on the stage.
This time the applause was even louder.
The host walked onto the stage and said, "Now, please invite the five mentors to give their comments."
"Eleventh Lady's lyrics are still very touching."
Zhao Weiwei shook her head in admiration and held up the first-class score card.
Shen Fei also raised the first-class score card, "Everyone has the regret of not being able to get the love they want. I think this song expresses the feelings of many people. First class!"
“I think this song is the best tonight!”
Guo Jiahe raised his thumbs with both hands to show his approval.
It is indeed of first-class standard, and Wang Cong and Dong Dehua also gave it first-class evaluation.
Zhang Long and Li Zhenzhen bowed and expressed their gratitude with a smile. With five first-class evaluations, it seems that they will secure a place in the top four if nothing unexpected happens.
However, starting from this period, there was a small variable in the calculation of scores.
In the last ethnic topic, the Mulan Brothers lost to the Sunshine Youth League. The official Weibo of the program team was severely criticized by the audience, and the word "shady dealings" was posted under every Weibo post.
The production team was forced to change the way the scores were calculated, adding in the live votes of 200 audience members, which accounted for 20% of the score.
In the live broadcast room, netizens gave the song positive reviews.
But there are also doubts.
“Are you guys focusing too much on words?”
"I think a good song should have lyrics, music and singing. We are not here to analyze lyrics!"
As Zhang Long and Li Zhenzhen left, the host pointed and said, "Thank you for the wonderful performance by the talented couple. Which group will be performing next? Please look at the big screen!"
three.
two.
one.
As the countdown ended, information about the upcoming contestants appeared on the screen.
Coral Sea
[Phoenix perches on the sycamore]
【Lyrics: Lin Zhixing】
【Composition: Lin Zhixing】
【Arranger: Lin Zhixing】
"Now, please welcome the Fengqi Wutong band to perform their original song 'Coral Sea'. Please give them a round of applause!" After the host announced the program, the audience burst into warm applause.
"Interesting, this order reminds me of the episode "Shanhe Tu". With the same order of appearance, I wonder if the result will be the same."
"Oh yeah, come on, even though you said you don't have much confidence in this new type of song, I believe in your ability!"
"Every time they perform, it's amazing. I hope this time will be the same."
Lin Zhixing and Song Ge looked at each other, nodded slightly to encourage each other, and then walked onto the stage together.
Zhang Long returned to the first row and did not mock this time. He just hugged his shoulders and watched quietly.
"Brother Lin, pigeons, keep going!"
Dong Chen and Ji Yu behind them silently cheered for them.
Under the lights that flicker like glass.
Lin Zhixing and Song Ge stood in the center of the stage, with every pair of eyes staring at them, waiting to compare them with the handsome man and beautiful woman who were coming on stage.
The two of them were dressed in completely opposite styles today. Song Ge wore a white dress that looked as pure and white as a seagull, while Lin Zhixing wore a red suit. There was a sense of incongruity when they stood together.
"Oh yeah, my injured foot is healed now, I can show my full strength today!"
"Their outfits today are so mismatched. What does a costume designer do?"
【bite!】
[System mission "medium" difficulty is opened, Coral Sea is loved by 50,000 young viewers, and a random song of Earth is awarded. ]
When he heard the system prompt sound, Lin Zhixing didn't take the number seriously. With these days of practice, he believed that he could do it.
He turned and nodded to the music teacher.
As the play button was pressed, the main melody with piano accompaniment sounded, and the melodious tune gradually drew the audience into it.
Lin Zhixing, who had been lowering his head to gather his emotions, slowly raised the microphone.
"The sea level is beginning to darken in the distance"
"How can sadness be calm and pure white"
"There is always a hint of helplessness on my face"
The audience who were used to hearing him rap were pleasantly surprised. They did not expect that he could also sing so well in a plain and straightforward manner.
When it came to the girls' section, Song Ge also raised the microphone.
"You mouthed that you wanted to leave"
“Absent-minded”
"The sadness silently slowed down"
"You understand the surging tide"
“It’s not the waves but the sea of tears”
The audience felt exactly the same when listening to Song Ge singing this song as Lin Zhixing did when he first heard it, and they were all surprised.
Just as she said, she is good at singing not only folk songs but also pop songs.
"I can't say goodbye even if I turn around and leave"
"You have nothing to say"
"The love between seabirds and fish was just an accident"
“Our love differences have always existed”
"Dust in the wind accumulates into harm"
The audience was surprised to hear the duet between the two people, and they found it surprisingly beautiful, with the characteristics of each person's voice being clearly revealed.
"It's a shame about the topic, the love between a seabird and a fish, and it was described with a simple example. This creative ability is really amazing!"
“Not only are the lyrics amazing, but the two voices fit the song perfectly!”
"The chorus is meant to show the difference in love between seabirds and fish. If the voices were too harmonious, it would not reflect the meaning of the song."
"I agree! This song is just right. It's a love story that doesn't match up. If two singers who only sing sweet songs sing it, how can there be the feeling of seabirds and fish?"
"After reading the comments from the masters, I finally understand why they wore this way on stage today. It highlights the difference between seabirds and fish. Every detail is so exquisite!"
Tutor seat.
Wang Cong looked at Lin Zhixing and Song Ge on the stage, and all his worries disappeared. He didn't analyze the lyrics very well, but judging from the sound, they had already won! Contestant Seat.
Zhang Long's expression gradually became solemn. They noticed a detail: none of the audience members were waving cheering sticks, but were listening quietly.
This shows that they all listened and perhaps were thinking empathetically.
Just as they thought, the audience did empathize with them, and the live broadcast room was filled with comments about their feelings after listening.
"I feel very sad after hearing this. My first love and I are like seabirds and fish. We should have lived happily as childhood sweethearts, but I insisted on tearing that veil apart, leaving me with a heart full of hurt and never seeing each other again."
"My girlfriend and I are in the same situation as the lyrics. Our differences in love have always existed, waiting to accumulate into hurt. When the passion is gone, the only thing left is to leave..."
"He really understands poetry. Compared with Xiao Shiyi Niang's poetry, this one makes me empathize more."
…
"I can't say goodbye even if I turn around and leave"
"The blue coral sea turns pale when you miss it"
"We were not mature enough to be honest with each other at the beginning"
"Enthusiasm is no longer there, smiles cannot be forced"
"Love Buried Deep in the Coral Sea"
Compared to the empathy of the audience, there is another person in the contestant seat who also empathizes at this moment.
Li Zhenzhen looked at Lin Zhixing on the stage, thinking about the lyrics, and fell into deep thought.
No matter how calm the sadness is, there is always a hint of helplessness on the face.
It must be that after the breakup, he was very sad and felt so determined to break up with himself that he wanted to keep her but was helpless.
Sadness is silent, it is not a wave but a sea of tears.
The love between seabirds and fish was just an accident, and their love is buried deep in the coral sea.
Is he so sad after the breakup?
Comparing him and me to a seabird and a fish, in the end his love can only be hidden deep in the coral sea?
The only sentence that doesn’t fit in is, “I turned around and left, unable to say the words of breaking up.”
The day we broke up...
I did turn around and leave. I said "break up" very decisively. I didn't say it without hesitation, did I? Got it!
He must be fantasizing, imagining that even though I didn't tell him that we broke up that day, there was still a possibility between us.
It turns out that this is the song he wrote for me...
Looking back on the three years of our relationship, he was truly wonderful to me and his love for me was truly sincere.
Li Zhenzhen withdrew her gaze from Lin Zhixing and turned to glance at her boyfriend beside her.
But I am not the kind of person who goes back to my old love, so let go of what I have missed!
…
At this moment, off screen.
A middle-aged woman is staring at the screen of her mobile phone, watching the music program "The Birth of a Group".
Her surname is Xiao and her pen name is Xiao Shiyi Niang.
I received a call from my nephew at noon today, and I took time out in the evening to watch his game.
She thought her nephew sang well.
I also saw my old acquaintance Dong Dehua on the screen. I gradually became interested in the show. I also wanted to know the level of my nephew's opponents, so I continued watching.
When she saw the lyrics of the poem "Coral Sea", she became very interested and began to ponder it carefully.
While pondering, a picture came to my mind.
As the sea breeze blows, under the blue sea, there is a "Coral Sea" composed of large areas of pink corals, and around the Coral Sea there are thousands of fish swimming.
When a seabird flew over the sea level and a school of fish just surfaced, they fell in love with each other with a kiss.
The seabird wants to fly with the fish, but it cannot leave the sky, and the fish cannot leave the sea.
In the boundless ocean, even if the loving fish and seabirds try their best every time, what they get in return is loneliness and helplessness again and again.
Even if we love each other, we have to separate in the end.
The ripples disappeared, and all traces of existence just now disappeared like bubbles, as if the encounter just now was just an accident.
The tide rises and falls, and it turns out that it is not waves but a sea of tears.
Although the song is about seabirds and fish, every sentence is about two people who are not suitable for each other but are determined to be together.
Love is sometimes like this. Even when two people know that there will be no ending, they will still fall in love with each other regardless of everything.
I don’t ask for anything, just to make sure my youth doesn’t go to waste.
Xiao Shiyi Niang looked at Lin Zhixing who was singing hard on the stage and shook her head with emotion.
“This guy writes really well!”
I planned to write 6,000 words, but I’m short of 1,200. I’ll make up for it tomorrow! (End of this chapter)
