Chapter 179: Xuejian falls into the mortal world
On the gorgeous stage.
The members of the Voice of the Heart Orchestra felt the thunderous applause from the audience, and everyone had a joyful smile on their face. It was truly a hearty performance.
“Thank you for the wonderful performance of the Soul Voice Orchestra!”
The host Miaomiao walked back to the stage with a smile, "Now, please invite the judges to comment on the Voice of the Heart Orchestra. First, please invite judge Wang Yuehua to comment."
The camera turned to the judges' panel.
Wang Yuehua held up a five-star rating board and commented with four words as usual, "Extremely shocking!"
Xie Chunhong also raised her five-star rating card and praised the song generously, saying, "This song, He is a Pirate, is the best song I have heard this year."
Huang Xiao and Li Yumin looked at each other and raised the full score sign together. "The song is magnificent. When I closed my eyes, it seemed as if I was transported to the sea in the Middle Ages. From the beginning to the end, it was a surprise. It is undoubtedly a full score."
Of the forty public judges in the audience, a total of thirty-nine raised the "support" signs, and in the end, "Voice of the Soul Band" got a good score, just one vote away from full marks.
Cheers rang out again at the scene. Lin Zhixing was not too upset about the result. This song deserved such a high score.
This will actually make people a little worried about the Tang Music Band, as they will have to perform under great pressure.
In the backstage lounge.
"One vote away from full marks", not only the Tang Music Band felt pressured, but all the bands that had not yet performed were also feeling particularly nervous at this moment, hoping that they would not be the next to perform.
When such a passionate piece of music comes on, it's not just the last band that will be left in a lull. Judging from the atmosphere, it's possible that all three bands will be left in a lull.
…
Amidst warm applause, the members of the Voice of the Soul band waved goodbye and left the stage.
The host Miaomiao walked back to the center of the stage and said, "Thank you for the wonderful performance of the Voice of the Heart Orchestra. Which band will perform next? Please look at the big screen!"
On the stage screen, the scrolling band information stopped.
Unlucky Number One appeared, the band that ranked last in the previous episode. Although they performed quite well in this episode, the audience felt it was "boring" because of the rough diamond in front of them.
Unlucky Guy No. 2 was the fifth place in the previous episode, and also failed to make any splash, and the audience’s enthusiasm obviously dropped.
Next up was the Vienna Orchestra.
Their performance gave the audience a bright feeling, but it was just "bright".
Because the piece played was a lyrical piece, the audience's emotions were lifted but not much; it was not on the same track and could not be compared with "He's a Pirate".
The number of votes was 30 less than that of the Sound of the Soul Band.
…
"The SoulVoice Band came on too early. I can't listen to them anymore."
"Even the Vienna Orchestra couldn't save the atmosphere. I think this is the end of it."
The audience was talking about it, and generally believed that "He's a Pirate", which was close to a perfect score, was the ceiling of the night and no other song would be able to surpass it.
Even the contestants backstage thought so.
“Thank you Vienna Orchestra for the wonderful performance!”
The host Miaomiao pointed to the stage screen and said, "Which band is coming up next? Please look at the big screen!"
On the stage screen, the scrolling band information stopped.
【Xuejian·Falling into the Mortal World】
【Composition: He Yi】
【Performed by: Tang Music Group】
"Wuhu, Tang Music Group, they are good and left a deep impression on me!"
"I wonder what kind of music this composer He Yi will bring tonight. Will he be able to beat Oh Ye Ge's band?"
The name "Tang Music Band" attracted some audiences. Some audiences who were not familiar with the band and were attracted by Lin Zhixing's Weibo mostly held their mobile phones and looked away from the TV screen.
…
“What is our slogan!”
In the entrance passage, Zheng Lili shouted to the band members.
"Be calm when you gain, be calm when you lose, fight for what is inevitable, and let nature take its course!"
The members replied together.
"Okay, let's take first place tonight!"
Soon, members of the Tang Music Orchestra, led by Zheng Lili, came to the center of the stage, and the audience applauded warmly.
They are still dressed in their elegant Tang suits and cheongsams today, and everyone is determined to compete with the Voice of the Soul for the first place.
As the members of the Tang Music Band took their seats, the noisy scene quieted down.
After the orchestra conductor waved his baton, the Hulusi, Yangqin, Guzheng, Ruan, Liuqin, Pipa, Erhu, and Tang drum and other instruments performed in unison.
An ethereal and beautiful feeling is presented before the audience.
"generally!"
“With its beautiful style, it can’t beat the passionate “He’s a Pirate”!”
Some fans of the band Soul Voice gave their comments in their hearts.
But as the performance progressed, their views changed. The style of the music gradually became sadder and more and more tragic the more they listened, like the beginning of a sad story.
It even interprets the feeling of twists and turns, full of cause and effect, twists and turns, joy and sorrow, and intricate love. The low string music becomes high-pitched and tragic. At the same time, hope and determination unfold step by step.
Judges' seat.
"That's interesting. There's a variation!"
Huang Xiao listened with great concentration.
The first half seems to have a thousand years of vicissitudes and loneliness, but there is a sense of hope. When the sad and majestic melody of the second half sounds, it feels like the sky is about to fall, leaving the listener with mixed feelings.
“The song conveys the emotions so well.”
Huang Xiao thought to himself that he was very interested in the composer "He Yi". He was looking forward to netizens digging out this person as soon as possible and wanted to communicate with each other.
Li Yumin was also shocked by this song. It seemed that the song said everything about the people in the world. After everything was magnificent and the dust settled, it returned to the beginning, like a seed just sprouting and life being reborn.
…
Lin Zhixing closed his eyes and listened to the music.
He felt that the beginning was like a scene where heavy snow was falling from the sky and earth, with snowflakes rustling down, and a cute baby sleeping in the snow.
The passionate part in the latter part is the grief of losing loved ones, followed by the psychological shock, confusion, contradiction and doubt after learning about one's own life experience, and finally the relief.
The same melody, two completely different ways of playing. The former carries a thousand years of vicissitudes and loneliness, while the latter is the graceful and lingering longing, just like one Xiyao and one Xuejian.
In addition to depicting Xuejian's mental journey, this song also interprets the journey of life.
Mai Zhenhong is so awesome! ...
The members of the Tang Music Orchestra were getting better and better in their performance, and the music was becoming more and more majestic, so much so that the audience felt their hair stand on end.
The new audience who had previously ignored the Tang Music Orchestra while holding their mobile phones now had their eyes fixed on the screen and were deeply attracted by the music.
“Wow, the spirit of immortality and chivalry are blended together, it feels like a song from thousands of years ago!”
"The chorus is really grand and solemn, at least at the national level, and is by no means confined to petty love. It is like a grand and magnificent chapter slowly unfolding before the public, and it is like all living beings praying together for the fate of the country."
"What on earth did this composer called 'Unity' go through to be able to write such a tragic and majestic song?"
The atmosphere on the scene continued to rise, slowly approaching the atmosphere created by the Sound of the Soul Band.
Judges' seat.
Huang Xiao and Li Yumin looked at each other and nodded with satisfaction. At the same time, a hint of embarrassment appeared in their eyes.
Both songs are very good and it is hard to say which one is better.
One song represents the majestic momentum of the East, and the other represents the majestic momentum of the West. Both are flawless and deserve to be ranked first.
All we can do is give the same number of votes and let the other judges give the better answer.
Backstage lounge.
“Good fellow!”
Philharmonic Orchestra conductor Xu Chun shook his head repeatedly as he listened to the music.
One song breaks out of space, one song conquers the ocean, and this song is even more excessive. Is it going to unify the three realms?
Other bands had not expected that there would be a song that could compete with "He's a Pirate".
"Will they beat us?"
"Probably not. We are one vote away from being full."
The members of the Voice of the Heart Band were also a little nervous at this moment.
…
On the gorgeous stage.
The atmosphere on the scene reached its peak again.
The music changed again, slowly becoming calmer. Finally, the performance ended as the audience was still not satisfied...
“Nice!”
"I thought there was an earthquake just now, but it turns out that your performance shocked me!"
There was thunderous applause from the audience, and the popularity of the band was no less than that of the Voice of the Soul Band after its performance.
The members of Tang Music Band bowed deeply to express their gratitude to the audience who supported them.
The host Miaomiao walked back to the stage and said, "Thank you Tang Music Group for the wonderful performance. Now, please invite the four judges to comment on the song."
The four judges looked at each other, and Xie Chunhong, Li Yumin, and Huang Xiao raised the "five-star" scoreboard at the same time.
Wang Yuehua hesitated for a moment and also raised the full score card.
Although he didn't like the Tang Music Band very much, he still planned to give the right to decide the outcome to the public judges.
“Very good.”
Xie Chunhong adjusted her glasses and said with a smile: "The variations of the piece are so beautiful. When you listen to it and get immersed in it, it makes you feel very excited. The level of the orchestra is impeccable and there is no flaw to be found."
“Excellent.”
Li Yumin smiled and gave a thumbs up, saying, "The song is magnificent and the artistic conception is beautiful. I really want to meet the composer and praise him in person!"
Huang Xiao smiled and commented: "Tonight there are two songs that shocked me, 'He is a Pirate' and this 'Snowy: Falling into the Mortal World'. One represents the grandeur of the East, and the other represents the West. Both are excellent works of excellent quality."
When it came time to count the votes, thirty-nine of the forty public judges voted for the song, also getting a score that was just one vote away from a perfect score.
…
"Great! This result should get me first place!"
"We tied with the Voice of the Heart this time, and we will surpass them next time!"
The members of Tang Music Group returned to the backstage and were very excited after hearing the vote count.
…
On the stage, after the Tang Band, the last few bands came on stage.
As expected, they once again cooled the atmosphere.
After the votes were tallied, host Miaomiao returned to the stage to announce the results.
Tang Music Orchestra and Voice of the Heart Orchestra tied for first place tonight, and Vienna Orchestra won second place by one vote over the Philharmonic Orchestra.
Tied for first place!!!
After hearing the ranking, Lin Zhixing's mouth curled up to his ears.
They won the first place in just three episodes. It seems that the two bands’ real rivals on this stage will be each other.
【bite!】
[The cumulative tasks have been completed, and the rewards will be distributed at midnight...]
…
After the game, inside the hotel.
Lin Zhixing lay on his big bed, and the first thing he did before going to sleep was to open Weibo.
Both songs are on the hot search list, with "He is a Pirate" ranking fourth and "Xuejian: Falling into the Mortal World" ranking fifth.
[Who is the composer of "The Band's Summer" "He Yi"? Is he a time traveler? ]
"I agree. If you haven't practiced immortal cultivation, you can't create such a piece of music. It sounds so fairy-like and perfectly fits the soundtrack of the immortal drama in my mind!"
"Heyi is definitely a cultivator. He must have lived for at least a few thousand years. The way he wrote "Lichunyuan" is as if he has visited it before!"
Lin Zhixing browsed the comment section and was amused.
I have inexplicably become an immortal cultivator. That’s great, that’s quite interesting.
After flipping for a while...
Lin Zhixing raised the corners of his mouth and clicked on another hot search.
[I have never heard such a shocking song, "He is a Pirate" shocked me! Oh yeah brother is enough to become a god with this song! ]
"I think this song is even good enough to compete with famous Western songs!"
"It's so wonderful. I suggest Disney Pirates buy the copyright of this song!"
As I was reading the comments, the clock struck midnight.
【bite!】
[Cumulative tasks have been completed (5), congratulations to the host for obtaining the soundtrack "A Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix" for the movie "A Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix"! ]
The system prompt sounded, and all memories about the song were retrieved.
"A Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix" is probably one of the most famous suona pieces in China.
The piece of music has three parts. The first part is when hundreds of birds come to pay homage to the phoenix after its death, which is used for mourning; the second part is when the phoenix is reborn and returns as a king, which is used for the full moon; the third part is when the phoenix flies to the sky and hundreds of birds see it off, which is used for weddings.
Luo Feng (funeral), Nirvana (full moon), He Ming (marriage).
Lin Zhixing once set the song "A Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix" as his alarm clock.
If you can wake up in the morning, it’s the alarm clock. If you can’t wake up, it can give yourself a ride.
This is probably where the gap between China and the West lies. When Chopin plays the piano all night, most people cannot tell whether he is happy or sad. But when he plays the suona, everyone knows it is time to give a gift.
Not bad, not bad.
【bite!】
[Total tasks completed (6), congratulations to the host for obtaining the soundtrack "Flight of the Bumblebee" from the movie "The Legend of 1900"! ]
The system prompt sounded, and all memories about the song were retrieved.
The song "Flight of the Bumblebee" was composed by Russian composer Korsakov. It is very famous around the world for its extremely fast melody.
In the eyes of an outsider who doesn't understand the song, this song is of hellish difficulty.
This song was used in the piano-playing part of the movie "The Legend of 1900". After the song was played, the strings were lit with cigarettes, and the effect was very good.
Lin Zhixing's first impression of this song was from the game "Rhythm Master".
"A Hundred Birds Pay Homage to the Phoenix" vs. "Flight of the Bumblebee"? This is an interesting duel.
