Chapter 202 How lonely it is to be invincible!
Yida Records Company.
In the singing room.
"It's so exciting. I feel so refreshed listening to it!"
After listening to "Pointing to the Moon with the Left Hand" sung by Song Ge and Wang Jiawei, Lin Zhixing felt his scalp tingling and his hair stood on end.
Song Ge sings in folk singing style, while Wang Jiawei sings in bel canto style. Although their vocal positions are different, they can both sing out the ethereal, distant and profound artistic conception.
They practiced this song together, and it couldn't be kept secret. It could be heard even from two blocks away.
As for who sang better? It can be said that they are neck and neck.
If the two of them sang this song in the final, they would have no problem winning.
“Ha~”
Wang Jiawei let out a long breath, her face full of excitement and satisfaction. She grabbed Song Ge's hand, smiled and gave him a thumbs up, "Xiao Song, you sang so well. I haven't sung so well in a long time."
"Me too."
Song Ge smiled and nodded happily, "Sister Jiawei, you are really amazing."
Lin Zhixing silently watched the two people bragging about their business and imagined how much profit the song could make after it was released.
"Xiaolin, this song is amazing."
Wang Jiawei covered her mouth and smiled, then turned to Lin Zhixing and said, "Just like what you said that day, I think this song will be popular."
"I hope so."
Lin Zhixing smiled and nodded.
After chatting for a while, Wang Jiawei left as she had other things to do.
"Pigeon, how did you feel about the chorus just now?"
Lin Zhixing couldn't wait to ask Song Ge how she felt about singing with the Big Devil.
"Um……"
Song Ge pursed her lips and said, "It feels like she didn't use her full strength just now. It's not that she was hiding her strength on purpose, but the song restricted her and she couldn't fully release it."
Lin Zhixing saw how effortlessly Wang Jiawei handled the situation and sensed what was going on. He nodded and asked, "What about you?"
"Of course, I haven't either."
Song Ge pursed her lips and chuckled mischievously, revealing two shallow dimples.
…
The other side.
In another practice room.
Dong Chen and Ji Yu were a little overwhelmed, so they invited their partner for the charity performance, Iijima Ran, but there was a problem with the song selection.
"Love each other as if tomorrow is the future"
Dong Chen patiently taught Iijima Ran the song word by word. Thinking that she was better at rock music, he specially chose Su Xin's famous work "Love Hard Even After Being Hurt".
Iijima Ran looked at Dong Chen's lip movements and tried to imitate him word by word, "Yamita..."
Dizzy~~
Dong Chen was defeated. There was no progress for more than an hour, but he understood her. Chinese is indeed difficult to learn.
It seems that if they want to collaborate on a charity performance, they have to sing in a mixture of Chinese and Japanese, just like they did in the previous "Little Apple".
However, Dong Chen had no recollection of any Chinese-Japanese duet songs, and seeing that the charity performance was about to begin tomorrow night, he became extremely anxious.
"Thank goodness, yeah, for the plane that gave me cavities from diabetes."
While Dong Chen was teaching Chinese, Ji Yu was busy on the side. She took advantage of the popularity of Iijima Ran to practice singing and reaped a wave of traffic.
It was so joyful to teach Chinese this way. There were more than 100,000 people online in the live broadcast room, and she couldn’t even read the gifts.
Sudden……
The door of the practice room was pushed open, and Lin Zhixing walked in with mineral water and juice, wanting to see how they were progressing.
"Come, drink some water."
"Thank you, Brother Lin."
"Thank you~ Thank you~"
Iijima Ran took the water bottle and thanked him in broken Chinese.
"You're welcome. How's your practice going?"
Lin Zhixing bumped Dong Chen's shoulder with his arm.
Dong Chen sighed lightly, his face full of fatigue as he said, "She hasn't even learned a single line of lyrics yet. I tried really hard to teach her, and she also tried hard to learn, but she just can't learn it... And the other way around, we can't sing in Japanese either..."
Lin Zhixing glanced at the depressed Dong Chen, then looked at Ji Yu who was enjoying the live broadcast, and said, "You were wrong from the beginning. Why do you have to sing in Japanese or Chinese? Can't you sing together?"
Dong Chen spread his hands and said, "This idea is good, but there is no suitable song! Unless Brother Lin writes another song like the Chinese-Korean song "Little Apple" for us to sing."
【Write one! Write one! 】
【Write to him, we want to hear new songs! 】
The audience in the live broadcast room went wild and wanted to listen to the new song.
"Brother Lin, fans want to hear new songs!"
Ji Yu came to Lin Zhixing holding the phone and showed the barrage of comments that were flooding the screen.
"this……"
Lin Zhixing waved and greeted his fans calmly on the surface, but he was thinking something in his mind.
The system upgrade gave me three song selection cards, one for doing a difficult task, and one for recording "Singing Around the World". There are currently three cards left.
Do you want to give them one?
After thinking for a moment, Lin Zhixing decided to help them.
There are three main reasons.
First, they are really anxious right now. Second, the popularity of charity performances is still very high, which is suitable for promoting songs. Third, there are more than 100,000 people watching, and it is not in their character not to show off in front of them.
"All right."
Lin Zhixing thought about this and nodded, "I actually have a song here. I wrote it a long time ago, but I never released it. I think I can sing it if I change a few sentences from Chinese to Japanese."
“Is this true or false?”
Seeing him say that, the worry on Dong Chen's face instantly disappeared, and expectation appeared in his eyes, "How is your Japanese? Can it really be improved?"
“I’m pretty good at Japanese.”
Lin Zhixing called Iijima Ran's translator over and whispered a few words in her ear. Then the translator whispered a few words in Iijima Ran's ear again.
【? ? ?】
[Oh yeah, what the hell is going on? What are you mumbling about? ]
Lin Zhixing looked at the question marks that filled the screen of the live broadcast room and explained with a smile: "Xiao Dong just questioned my Japanese level. Now I will play a small game with Iijima Ran. I will speak Japanese to see if she can understand."
[Don't say those words that are commonly seen in movies! ]
【Try something difficult, we will trust you! 】
Faced with the audience's doubts, Lin Zhixing smiled without saying a word. He looked at Iijima Ran, who nodded to indicate that she was ready.
“Ahem!”
Lin Zhixing cleared his throat and said seriously, "How many floors does a bag of rice have to carry?"
“Oh~”
Iijima Ran nodded, squinting her eyes and repeating: "Feel the pain!"
[??? Are you serious? Do you really know Japanese?]
[Damn, I thought Oh Ye was just bragging, is he really that good? ]
The audience in the live broadcast room was very surprised. The number of people online continued to increase, and the screen was filled with gifts.
Ji Yu said: "Thanks for the plane that wanted to C Oh Ye Ge's teeth."
"cough."
Lin Zhixing glanced at Ji Yu, shrugged his shoulders, looked at Dong Chen and asked with a smile: "What do you think?"
Dong Chen nodded in surprise, "Another difficult one!"
"no problem."
After thinking for a moment, Lin Zhixing looked at Iijima Ran and said, "The scheming frog keeps touching your belly."
Iijima Ran blinked her eyes, and after a moment, she hammered her right hand with her left hand and said excitedly: "There is only one truth!"
Lin Zhixing gave a thumbs up, "Sri Lanka is the best!"
"Brother Lin, you are really good at it!"
Dong Chen and Ji Yu looked at each other and were both dumbfounded.
[Awesome! I just tried it with a translation app, I'm not just making this up.]
[Wow, he can speak not only Korean but also Japanese, awesome! ]
The live broadcast room was filled with the numbers "6" and "9".
Lin Zhixing, who was pretending a little, raised his lips. He took this opportunity to open the system panel and used a "song selection card".
He considered for three minutes before choosing a suitable song.
【bite!】
[The song selection card was used successfully. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the song "Later". ]
March 13, 2007, Beijing China-Japan SuperLive.
Ayaka Hirahara, Maki Goto, Minka Ji, Winds, Han Xue, and Kousuke Atari sang the song in both Chinese and Japanese on stage.
In three minutes, as far as Lin Zhixing can remember, there were only three songs in which Japanese singers sang together on the same stage.
In addition to this song "Later", there are also "Ecstasy National Style" by Phoenix Legend and Mei Yiliya, and "I Only Care About You" by Teresa Teng.
Dong Chen and Ji Yu definitely can't sing "I Only Care About You" with that kind of charm. "Ecstasy National Style" is more suitable for me to sing together with Song Ge and Iijima Ran. Only this song "Later" is more suitable.
If they want to sing what Iijima Ran is good at, a few lines of lyrics will blow the whole audience away, and they won't be able to follow suit. It's good that they can accommodate each other a little on lyrical songs.
"Brother Lin."
Dong Chen looked at Lin Zhixing who was a little distracted and said impatiently: "I know it will take some time to change the lyrics into Japanese, why don't you show us the Chinese version of the song first!"
【Sing one by one! 】
After he said this, the audience in the live broadcast room also started to make a noise.
"no problem."
Now that he had the song, he felt confident. Lin Zhixing waved his hand generously, then reached into his pocket to look for the system USB drive.
He felt his pocket and was stunned. "I think I left my USB drive in the hotel."
Ji Yu propped up his phone and pointed outside the door, saying, "Brother Lin, I'll go to the instrument room downstairs to get your guitar."
"Don't bother."
Lin Zhixing waved his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet, then took out his mobile phone from his pocket, opened the WeChat Transfer Assistant chat box, and pressed the voice button.
"Do~"
"re~"
"mi~"
[Hmm? What is he saying to WeChat Transfer Assistant? ]
[Oh yeah, are you usually so bored that you chat with robots? 】
[Little-known fact: someone will read it in the Transmission Assistant! ]
Everyone in the practice room and the audience in the live broadcast room were all stunned and had no idea what he was doing.
After upgrading to (A), Lin Zhixing gained the skill of "Absolute Pitch".
I only used that skill once on the show "Super Brain", and I almost forgot it after that.
Lin Zhixing had seen it in a short video.
Someone sent a short voice message on WeChat, and then pressed the buttons in order to play songs such as "Flight of the Bumblebee", "A Laugh in the Ocean", and "Sunny Day".
As someone who possesses the ability of "absolute pitch", I can break down the rhythm of the song "Later" and replicate the tune of the song, but the effect will be slightly worse.
There are more than 100,000 people watching online, including a singer from an island country. I should take this opportunity to open their eyes and promote my own superb musical ability.
"alright!"
After Lin Zhixing analyzed the melody of "Later", he showed his mobile phone to the audience and then raised his finger to poke the voice box.
Suddenly, a soothing melody with a hint of sadness sounded.
[Wow, WeChat voice can be used like this? ]
[Shocked for a hundred years, oh yeah brother please accept my knee! ]
[Awesome, a true music master! He even turned WeChat into a musical instrument! ]
[Prediction post: in one hour, I will see imitators playing like this on short videos...]
"Siguoyi!"
Not only were the audience in the live broadcast room stunned, but the Japanese singer Iijima Ran also had her phone crashed. Lin Zhixing was a musical genius she had never seen before.
When she came to her senses, she immediately took out her cell phone and silently took a picture of this shocking scene.
Dong Chen held his head in his hands in disbelief, "The King of Pretenders! When it comes to pretentiousness, it has to be Brother Lin!"
"Everyone, let's go with the gifts!"
Ji Yu, who was obsessed with money, shouted in a low voice to the audience in the live broadcast room.
After the prelude ended, Lin Zhixing sang hard while poking at the screen of his mobile phone.
"Then I finally learned how to love"
"It's a pity that you have already gone away and disappeared in the crowd"
"Later, I finally understood in tears"
"Some people, once missed, will never come back"
The lyrics are simple, without fancy words, but they touch people's hearts directly.
[Isn’t this a song about regret? As soon as the prelude sounded, even dogs would feel regretful.]
【Alas, she really disappeared in the crowd. 】
[Friend, I come to watch the live broadcast to have fun. Are you trying to make me cry? ]
"OK!"
Lin Zhixing only sang a short part before he stopped. It was really uncomfortable to use the voice accompaniment on his phone. "If you want to listen to the full version, please tune in to the charity performance tomorrow night!"
After saying that, he urged Ji Yu to turn off the broadcast, after all, he hadn't finished his important work yet.
After the show was turned off, Lin Zhixing took out a pen and paper, wrote down the lyrics in Japanese, handed them to Iijima Ran, and began teaching her to sing.
Dong Chen and Ji Yu looked at the lyrics in their hands, read them carefully, and loved them so much.
“Wouldn’t it be a waste if we didn’t put this song into the competition?”
…
Nine o'clock in the evening.
Outside the hotel balcony.
Lin Zhixing finished an extremely busy day and finally took the time to look at the voting rankings for the World Cup theme song.
After he opened the Weibo post, something unexpected happened to him.
"Why is this voting post single choice? What about the songs created by other musicians?"
Lin Zhixing clicked on the comment section of the voting post with a confused look on his face.
[A masterpiece that turned multiple-choice questions into single-choice questions by one person! ]
[Passionate and excited! This song has become our class song! ]
[Thank you, brother Oh Ye. I hope that next year will be a great start and that all the senior high school students will stay! ]
After reading the comments from netizens, Lin Zhixing realized that other musicians had voluntarily withdrawn from the selection and recommended "Flag of Victory" as the theme song of the World Cup.
"Will you sing on the World Cup stage?"
Lin Zhixing put down his phone, leaned on the railing, closed his eyes and felt the tranquility that belonged only to the night.
…
【bite!】
【Scenario has been triggered! 】
[Congratulations to the host for winning the song "Invincible"! ]
The system prompt sounded suddenly, and all the memories about the song were retrieved.
The song "Invincible" was written by Stephen Chow and used in the movie "The Mermaid". The 80 words condense his life of "How lonely it is to be invincible".
Feeling the night breeze blowing on his face, Lin Zhixing opened his arms, raised the corners of his mouth in an evil arc, and began to sing.
"How lonely it is to be invincible"
"Invincibility is so empty"
"Who can understand my loneliness?"
