Chapter 170: The Cining Palace is strictly guarded
After Hong Bo announced the rankings, the singers' waiting room was surprisingly quiet.
Sun Haoan looked very unhappy. He couldn't believe that he lost to Guo Jiahe.
The two people received the same number of votes from the public judges, but they lost because of the "10 votes" that Wei Donglin, one of the special judges, added for Guo Jiahe.
Similarly, the gap between him and Lin Zhixing is also due to the “10 votes” added by Huang Xiaojia.
But the recognition of special judges is also part of the competition. If you lose, you lose, and there is no excuse.
He was called "Lyrical Prince" by his fans. Under the halo of this title, he lost in the lyrical track, which was a huge blow to him.
The live broadcast room was filled with comments.
"Lyrical Prince? That's it?"
"Tell the announcer not to report it like that next time. It's so embarrassing."
"Golden Harvest's husband is the best! 'Sunset Love Song' beats 'Sunset Hymn'!"
"How could I lose? I clearly think Haoan sang better..."
"My opinion is that none of them are as good as "Love is Just a Word"!"
…
Although "Sunset Love Song" won "Sunset Hymn", Guo Jiahe was not happy at all. The singer he hated the most not only did not leave the stage, but also caught up with him.
It's like a piece of chewing gum stuck to the sole of your shoe, which is quite annoying.
Zhao Weiwei and Yu Jiang looked at Lin Zhixing with great admiration in their hearts. They had witnessed with their own eyes how they fought their way from the last place to the third place. It seemed that when they had predicted the result to be "first", they were confident in their own abilities.
Likewise, it's a bit sad.
That is the "Miracle of Leap" that has always been at the bottom, and its ranking in this issue is the same as yours.
In this program, his highest score was once "third" place, but this time he was at the bottom, which was exactly the opposite of Feng Qi Wu Tong.
If this trend continues, and Lin Zhixing gives them another high-quality song, it is possible that they will surpass himself.
now.
The most excited ones were Dong Chen and Ji Yu. They held each other's hands tightly, their excitement beyond words.
Although I am still in last place, I tied with my former mentor today. This is a milestone in progress, and it is possible that I will surpass him in the future!
"I'm going to give you a heads up today. The surprise singers in the fifth episode will be very powerful. Starting from the sixth episode, the elimination round and topic selection round will begin!"
As soon as Hong Bo finished speaking, the singers' waiting room became restless.
The singers looked at each other, seemingly calm on the surface, but they were thinking about their own things in their hearts.
In competitive matches, there is nothing much to say about the knockout rounds.
The "topic selection competition" is a bit interesting. The singers are good at different types, and it is very likely that because of this competition system, the singers' current rankings will be reshuffled.
Zhao Weiwei and Yu Jiang are both very excited. Now they are on the edge of the cliff. Maybe because of this competition system, the ranking will rush back.
When Lin Zhixing heard the news, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
"The Birth of a Group" has experienced the topic selection competition and is not unfamiliar with this. With the advantage of the song, it is likely to win the next competition.
Compared to the singers, the audience was more interested in the amazing surprise singer in the fifth episode revealed by Hong Bo, and they started to speculate in the barrage.
"Thank you all for your company tonight..."
Finally, after director Hong Bo’s closing remarks, the recording of the fourth episode of “I Am the King of Singers” came to an end.
Off screen.
After seeing the results of the competition, Dong Chen’s mother was not very satisfied with her son’s last-place finish, but she was still quite satisfied with the people her son was following.
“Let’s give it a try!”
…
…
That night, topics about "I Am the King of Singers" dominated the Weibo hot search list.
The hottest topic was undoubtedly whether Guo Jiahe won over Sun Haoan. The two people in the entertainment industry covered the same song and decided the winner. This matter was so popular that it became a hot topic.
"Please give the title of Lyrical Prince to Jiahe, thank you!"
"Where are the people who said we were bad a few days ago? Stand up!"
Guo Jiahe's radical female fans flocked to Sun Haoan's Weibo and began to leave sarcastic comments.
"Love Is Just One Word" and "Why Not", written by Lin Zhixing, both made it to the Weibo hot search list and were widely praised by netizens.
Another hot search further elevated Lin Zhixing's abilities.
[According to statistics, 15 of the top 50 songs on the Penguin Music Hot Songs Chart were co-written by Lin Zhixing. What does this mean? ]
Under this trending search, fans directly praised Lin Zhixing to the sky.
"Out of 15 songs, 14 are live versions. Can you believe it?"
"One song is "The Most Dazzling National Style", three songs are from "I Am the Rap King", ten songs are from "I Am the Singing King", and one is an instrumental song "One Step Away". It's amazing!"
"I suggest that this list be named after Oh Ye Ge!"
…
Two days later.
A video on the short video site has made it to the short video hot search list.
In the wedding hall, when a groom entered, he sang the song "Love is Just a Word", using the live version of the program as accompaniment, and he sang it very well.
The video received 500,000 likes, and the comment section was full of positive reviews, with two comments receiving more than 200,000 likes.
[Love is just one word, I will only say it once. It is so suitable to sing it at a wedding! ]
[Oh yeah, this is a great contribution. From now on, there is one more song that can be sung at the wedding. ]
…
On the same day, in a luxury goods store in a shopping mall.
Dong Chen's mother went shopping accompanied by the nanny. Every time she entered or exited a store, the nanny had a few more bags in her hands. Before she finished the round, she could hardly carry any more.
“This, this, this…”
"Wrap these three pieces, huh?"
The female clerk looked at the lady in front of her, raised the corner of her mouth, opened her eyes wide and asked excitedly.
Dong Chen's mother did not answer. Her attention was attracted by the music from a shop not far away, and she quickly walked over towards the sound.
The nanny straightened her back, pointed her finger in a circle and said, "Madam means that except for these three pieces, pack up all the others!"
"ah???"
The female clerk was stunned for a moment, then nodded quickly, "Okay, okay, please fill in your address and I'll send someone to deliver it to you later."
Dong Chen’s mother came to the door of a shop, which was a women’s clothing store.
The female clerk was listening to music and humming while sorting clothes. When she saw a customer coming, she put down her work, smiled and asked, "Hello, what kind of clothes do you need?"
Dong Chen's mother listened to the song and was sure it was the song her son sang the night before. She looked up and asked in surprise: "What is the name of this song and who sang it?"
The female clerk was very surprised to see such an old customer actually like this song, and replied with a smile: "It's called "Why Not", a song by Feiyue Miracle. I like their songs the most. Listening to them makes me feel like I'm back in my school days."
"Oh, thank you."
After Dong Chen's mother thanked him and left, she pursed her lips in thought. Is her son's song really popular? Or is it just a coincidence? After a moment, she turned around and looked back at the store.
"You have no taste. You'd be better off being a phoenix perched on a wutong tree."
…
…
Yida Records, inside Good Luck Studio.
"How much? 280,000?"
"Brother Lin, if you can reach the performance level, this price is already the cheapest."
In the program "Summer of the Orchestra", the Tang Music Orchestra was to perform the song "The Solemn Cining Palace", in which the most important instrument is the "chime bells", but the program team did not have this instrument.
Lin Zhixing was thinking of buying a set for the orchestra, but he didn't expect the price to be so expensive. "What if we rent it?"
"Ten thousand yuan for a rental."
Zheng Lili pursed her lips and replied, "Brother Lin, I also think it's too expensive. How about we change the song?"
Lin Zhixing was silent for a moment, then raised his head and said with determination, "Let's not change it. Let's just buy a set. It may be a little more expensive, but I'll be able to use it in the future. Have you found a performer?"
Zheng Lili nodded. "I've found it. The sheet music has already been sent. It should arrive tomorrow morning."
"Okay, my ranking was a bit bad last time, so I'm going to turn it around this time. I'll work harder and practice more in the next two days."
"Uh-huh."
…
…
The day of recording "Summer of the Band".
In the locker room before the game.
The last episode of "One Step Away" became a hit, and the Voice of the Heart band went from being an unknown band to being the focus band. Not only did other bands approach them, but even the staff of the program team also gathered around them.
The members of Tang Music Band were a little envious.
"Look at how they are smiling. You can even see their back teeth. It's just that they performed better in the last episode!"
"I'm jealous. I also want to be the focus! Liu Zhu, today's game depends on you. Give me some strength!"
Zheng Lili glanced at Dong Yuhao, then patted the shoulder of the girl with short hair and ordinary looks beside her, and comforted her: "Liu Zhu, don't pay attention to them, don't feel pressured, just do your best."
This girl named Liu Zhu is also Zheng Lili’s junior. As a musician of a rare musical instrument, not everyone can afford to learn to play the chimes. Her family is quite wealthy.
However, when graduation was approaching, the family business failed and went bankrupt. Her father was devastated and fell ill. Liu Zhu delayed her job application due to taking care of her father and did not pursue a career in music after graduation.
Zheng Lili took great pains to get her to come, and used a lot of inspirational words to rekindle her hope, and she agreed to come to this show to fulfill her dream.
"Uh-huh."
…
Seven o'clock in the evening.
After a gesture from the on-site director, the "Summer of the Orchestra" program officially started.
The program received wide acclaim in the last season, and the first season achieved quite good TV ratings. The advantage of the program is that it can be watched by people of all ages, and the director is confident that the ratings will be able to reach even higher levels.
With the graceful background music, a beautiful female host in cheongsam stepped onto the stage and made an opening speech with a smile, "Good evening, audience friends, welcome to watch the program "Summer of the Orchestra". I am Miaomiao, the host of tonight..."
After the opening remarks, the four judges were introduced.
Each judge stood up to greet everyone, and the audience responded with applause.
Lin Zhixing had already told the production team in the previous episode that he would come to watch the show as long as he had time. The production team also agreed and reserved a special seat for him in each episode.
Lin Zhixing was sitting in the middle of the third row with an excellent view, and he applauded along with the audience.
"Now let's welcome the first band to come on stage. Which band is it? Please look at the big screen!"
Following the direction of the host's finger, the names of the bands on the stage screen began to scroll. After stopping, the name of the first band to perform appeared in front of the audience.
[The Cining Palace is solemn and majestic]
【Composition: He Yi】
【Performed by: Tang Music Group】
"You're the first one to appear again? This idea..."
Lin Zhixing frowned slightly. Their ranking in the last period was not very good, and they did not expect to start at a disadvantage again this time.
When the audience saw the title of this song, there was another commotion, just like in the last episode.
"Last issue was Lichunyuan, this issue is Cining Palace, this author is a bit weird!"
"I feel like laughing. The harem is essentially the same as the Lichunyuan, except that it's just a group of people serving one person! Wouldn't the two songs be similar?"
…
"One, two, three, come on!"
Soon, the members of Tang Music Band, led by Zheng Lili, came to the center of the stage.
They are still dressed in Tang suits and cheongsams today, but what attracts the audience at this moment is not the clothes, but the bronze chimes on the stage.
"Oh my god? This song today is quite impressive. They even used chimes?"
“It’s such a steal to be able to hear the chimes on this show!”
The audience was looking forward to this piece of music, and likewise, the judges on the jury were quite interested.
“It’s quite difficult to compose music using chimes!”
Li Yumin adjusted his glasses and spoke to Huang Xiao beside him.
Huang Xiao nodded. "Yes, this instrument is very old, but the chime bells have an advantage, which is that they have a sense of ancient times."
…
As the members of the Tang Music Band took their positions, the noisy scene instantly quieted down.
After the orchestra conductor waved his baton, Liu Zhu, who was wearing a red cheongsam, raised her hand and struck the chimes, and the orchestra members also played along.
The majestic and majestic melody flowed out, filling every corner of the recording hall.
"Um?"
When the judges and the audience heard this piece, their eyes lit up. Just like the last time when they heard "Lichunyuan", their first reaction was "like"! "It feels like the mother of the country!"
"It's a bit magical. Listening to this song, I seem to have returned to the days when I served the Queen Mother!"
"Wow, other people's background music comes with the screen, but this one is so cool, the background music comes with the screen!"
The sound of the bells is long-lasting, majestic and ancient. Listening to the music feels like traveling back to the Qing Dynasty.
It was just a short segment, but the audience's faces were filled with surprise. While they were surprised at the power of the song, they also admired the composer of the song "He Yi".
"This song seems... so familiar..."
After closing his eyes and listening, Li Yumin felt that the song was very familiar. He felt as if he had heard it somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where it was.
He adjusted his glasses and turned to look at Huang Xiao beside him. He seemed to be thinking about something as well.
Huang Xiao also felt that it was somewhat familiar. Halfway through the song, he finally figured out the answer. He widened his eyes and said in surprise: "This song seems to be the same as the "Lichunyuan" they sang last time!"
Li Yumin nodded heavily, "Yes, it's just that the arrangement is different."
The instrument judge "Wang Yuehua" next to them had a rather ugly look on his face at this moment.
"Targeting me, right?"
