Chapter 223: "Stealing Merit", Final Song

"good!"

As the audience was still eager to hear more, the Voice of the Soul Orchestra finished its performance.

After the song was over, Lin Zhixing, who was sitting in the middle of the audience, slowly opened his eyes.

I looked around and was relieved to find myself still at the recording site. I was afraid that after listening to "Interstellar", I would be transported back to Earth.

Backstage lounge.

"Sister Li, can we defeat them tonight?"

“This piece is a little too strong.”

Seeing that the band members were not confident, Zheng Lili straightened her back and comforted them: "Tonight is not the finals, relax, and we just need to do our best!"

Then he stretched out his hand, and the band members understood and put their hands together.

"Three, two, one, Tang Yin is the best!"

The members of the Philharmonic Orchestra saw them encouraging each other and sighed softly.

"You guys are indeed very strong, but after this song, it's going to be a cold reception, if nothing unexpected happens!"

…

“Thank you for the wonderful performance of the Soul Voice Orchestra!”

The host Miaomiao walked back to the stage with a smile and introduced: "Now, please invite the four mentors to comment on the performance of the Voice of the Heart Orchestra!"

“Extremely shocking!”

Wang Yuehua held up a full score sign and praised it generously: "The song is worthy of its name "Interstellar". Listening to this song really feels like traveling through the universe!"

Another instrumental judge, Xie Chunhong, also raised a full score sign to approve the piece.

Excellent music has the power to move people's hearts. Although they have not seen the movie, they were still deeply shocked.

"I personally think this is the best science fiction piece in China."

As soon as Li Yumin finished speaking, there was a burst of applause from the audience, and the audience thought the same.

"cough."

Huang Xiao smiled and added: "All the major directors in front of the screen, it's time to take action. Getting this song will definitely add a lot of color to the film!"

What a good guy! He even advertised for himself! Lin Zhixing smiled and shook his head.

The forty public judges in the audience all raised their "support" signs, and the Voice of the Soul Band scored full marks as expected.

"Full marks! Undisputed full marks!"

“Congratulations to the Soul Voice Band for advancing to the finals!”

There was thunderous applause from the audience; the Voice of the Soul Band conquered the audience.

…

"Thank you for the wonderful performance of the Voice of the Heart Orchestra. Now let's welcome the last group of contestants tonight, the Tang Music Group, to perform the song "Stealing Merit". Please welcome them with applause!"

【Stealing Credit】

【Composition: He Yi】

【Performed by: Tang Music Group】

"Master Unity's new song is here!"

"Come on, try to get full marks!"

"Stealing Kung Fu? It's a strange name for Master He Yi. How can Kung Fu be stolen?"

Listening to the audience's whispers, Lin Zhixing smiled slightly.

Human power is limited, but the power of heaven and earth is infinite.

Warriors use their superb martial arts skills to use themselves as a bridge to connect heaven and earth, achieve the unity of man and nature, and with every move they draw on the aura around them, using the power of heaven and earth to defend against powerful enemies.

This is called "stealing credit".

Amidst rounds of applause, members of the Tang Music Band dressed in cheongsam and Tang suits came onto the stage.

As the orchestra conductor waved his baton, the performance officially began.

The melody with a brisk and carefree rhythm instantly creates an atmosphere full of chivalry.

The gongs, drums, erhu and pipa sounded together. The pipa and drums were powerful, the main melody of the erhu was vigorous and heroic, and the rhythm was sonorous and rhythmic, which vividly reflected the flashing of swords and the shadows of swords, making people want to jump on the horse and roam the world.

Compared to the grandeur and vastness of symphony and the deafening power of rock and electronic music, this kind of music has only one characteristic, its unique national character.

Everyone who heard this song was amazed. It was full of martial arts flavor, and they were all involuntarily drawn into the martial arts world of swords and sabers.

“Nice!”

"This song is somewhat similar to "Arrogant and Laughing at the Waves". I think it's as good as that war song. It's so exciting!"

"Listening to the chivalrous spirit and tenderness flying together, it is simply amazing."

Due to the different musical style, the Tang Music Band did not experience any dull moments.

Auditorium.

Listening to this song, Lin Zhixing couldn't help but recall the days when he had to learn to spin around whenever he touched water after watching this movie.

Very emotional.

In the past, when technology was backward and equipment was poor, the older generation of artists and actors left behind many classics. Now, however, conditions in all aspects have improved, but there are no more classics worth recalling. How sad...

Judges' seat.

Huang Xiao and Li Yumin looked at each other, secretly gave him a thumbs up, and admired this "Master of Unity" immensely.

He can play Chinese musical instruments in every way possible, he is so good!

…

On the gorgeous stage.

The addition of the guzheng makes the song even more eye-catching.

The guzheng players fully demonstrated the guzheng playing techniques such as hook, wipe, support, big pinch, small pinch, scrape, vibrato, arpeggio, etc. The whole process was a combination of hardness and softness, and it recreated the scene in the movie where Zhang Sanfeng realized that Tai Chi can overcome hardness with softness.

The atmosphere at this moment is better than when "Interstellar" was played. The previous song was very immersive, but this one really got the audience excited!

The performance gradually got better.

The flexible and lingering sound of the erhu collides with the metallic sound of the suona, combining both hardness and softness, and coupled with the sound of gongs and drums, it instantly makes one's blood boil.

The atmosphere on the scene also reached a climax at this time.

"The beating notes, with rhythmic rhythms of strength and weakness, soothing and rhythmic, solemn and exciting, give people a sense of uplifting joy and a heroic spirit of never giving up and never giving up. It's awesome!"

"After listening to this music, I couldn't help but do some Tai Chi with my hands on the steering wheel. I'm in the hospital now, and the WiFi is very smooth..."

Finally, with the audience still wanting more, the members of the Tang Music Orchestra finished their performance.

“Nice!”

"I think it's not inferior to the song that Oh Ye brother just sang. Full marks!"

There was thunderous applause from the audience, and Master Heyi’s fans shouted “full marks” one after another.

…

“Thank you Tang Music Group for the wonderful performance!”

The host Miaomiao walked back to the stage with a smile and introduced: "Now, please invite the four mentors to comment on the performance of the Tang Music Group!"

Judges' seat.

The four judges looked at each other, all of them were in a dilemma. "Stealing Merit" is also a song that deserves full marks. But they all liked "Interstellar" a little more.

If the full score is 10, in their minds, "Stealing the Credit" is 10 points and "Interstellar" is 11 points. That's the difference.

Xie Chunhong raised her lips, raised her perfect score sign, and praised: "Master Heyi is amazing. I really like this chivalrous song. I also like traditional instruments. I hope that domestic soundtracks will get better and better!"

Wang Yuehua also gave a full score and affirmed that "the good music and the good musicians made me enjoy an audio-visual feast full of martial arts flavor, which was very enjoyable!"

"I personally think this is the best martial arts song in China."

As soon as Li Yumin finished speaking, the audience laughed.

"He seemed to have described Interstellar in the same way just now. Is he at a loss for words?"

"I think he's right. This also shows from the side that Brother Oh Ye and Master He Yi have been fighting back and forth, and they are both excellent creators!"

Huang Xiao also raised his full score card, "I agree with the views of the three teachers very much. I really want to meet this master of unity. The music he composed is truly the light of Chinese music!"

Lin Zhixing in the audience smiled secretly after hearing this, "You've seen it a long time ago!"

This song can also be used to promote advertisements. Almost all variety shows that feature martial arts will use it as background music. It is used much more frequently than "Arrogant and Laughing at the Waves". Its popularity is simply outrageous.

After the four judges finished their comments, thirty-nine of the forty public judges raised their placards in support.

There was one public judge left. He wanted to support it, but he felt that "Interstellar" was better and the two songs should not have the same score.

"What a pity, we were just one vote short!"

"It's okay, don't be discouraged, keep working hard, and do your best in the finals!"

The members of Tang Music Group are quite satisfied with this result. At present, they have advanced to the finals and all they need to do is overtake others in the finals.

After the votes were counted, host Miaomiao returned to the stage and announced the results.

The members of the Philharmonic Orchestra were very sad, as they were only one vote short of the Vienna Orchestra and felt it was a pity.

After the results were announced, the host Miaomiao announced: "Let us congratulate the Tang Music Group, the Voice of the Heart Orchestra, and the Vienna Orchestra for successfully advancing to the top three finals!"

There was applause of congratulations from the audience.

The show came to an end after the Philharmonic Orchestra gave its farewell speech.

"Thank you for watching tonight. Don't miss the next episode of the "Summer of the Band" finals. See you next time!"

【bite!】

[The cumulative tasks have been completed, and the rewards will be distributed at midnight...]

…

…

After watching the orchestra's performance, Lin Zhixing drove back to the hotel. When he arrived downstairs, he was dumbfounded.

There were a lot of luxury cars parked on the street, but there weren't any before I went to see the show. The traffic was a bit congested and parking was quite difficult.

I took out my cell phone and saw more than 20 missed calls.

My phone was on silent mode while I was watching the show, so I had no idea. There were more than 20 missed calls, 10 of which were from Dong Chen, and the rest were all from unfamiliar numbers.

Lin Zhixing called Dong Chen back first, and the phone was connected as soon as it rang.

"Brother Lin, where have you been? I've been looking for you like crazy!"

"What's wrong?"

"You should go back to the hotel quickly. There are several big directors sitting in the room. Come quickly!"

"Oh, okay..."

Lin Zhixing hung up the phone, stunned. Could these people be here to discuss copyright? ...

After parking the car, Lin Zhixing took the elevator and returned to his room.

I swiped my card to open the door. The room was filled with a pungent smell of cigarettes. There were three strangers, one man and one woman, smoking and chatting. Dong Chen was like a waiter, serving tea and water.

"Hey, the great composer is back!"

"So handsome, much more handsome than on TV!"

Seeing Lin Zhixing coming back, the three men and one woman who had been sitting on the sofa stood up to greet him.

"Hello, I'm Director Jin Qiao."

"Hello, I'm Director Hong Yu."

"Hello, I'm Director Zhang's secretary."

"Hello, directors. I am Lin Zhixing."

After a few simple pleasantries, when Lin Zhixing sat down, the four of them stated the purpose of their visit. "To be honest, we listened to the song "Interstellar" and are very interested in the film and television copyright of this song. We would like to discuss it with you."

"Oh, ok, no problem."

The four people offered different conditions, but the prices were roughly the same. Lin Zhixing did not rush to agree to them, but planned to ask Zhang Sihui for her opinion on the price.

By the way, let's wait for their movie script. If the script is not good, the song will really be wasted.

Dong Chen witnessed with his own eyes how the famous director was being polite to Lin Zhixing and how they kept showing goodwill to each other, and he was stunned.

What a wonderful life! It used to be fun with logic, but now it’s just random fun. This life is too fucking exciting!

…

11:40 p.m.

Lin Zhixing chatted with these directors for more than two hours, and even asked him to compose the music for their future films. He climbed into bed without even taking a shower.

Before going to bed, I looked through the responses to today's songs. Both songs received good responses, and it can be said that there were no negative reviews.

【bite!】

As the pointer pointed to zero, the system prompt sound suddenly sounded.

[Total tasks completed (13), congratulations to the host for winning the soundtrack "Victory" for the movie "The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies".]

It’s this song?

As all his memories about the song came back, the corners of Lin Zhixing's mouth curled up to his ears.

"Victory" is majestic and magnificent. It is an epic war song that is popular all over the world and serves as the background music for all major events.

It is listed in the top ten most powerful background music in the world.

When it comes to war songs, it is generally recognized that the only two songs that can rival it are "Star sky" and "breath and life".

But Lin Zhixing thinks that the best song is "March of the Iron Torrent"! This song is a bit special.

It has a part where a female voice chants, which is the finishing touch. Just with one word "ah", it can touch people's souls.

With this song, aren't you going to reserve the championship in advance?

Lin Zhixing felt a little sorry for the Tang Music Band. As it was his first band, he had a deep affection for it and hoped they would win.

I hope our ancestors’ musical instruments win.

But I can’t figure out which song can beat this epic soundtrack!

…

【bite!】

[Total tasks completed (14), congratulations to the host for winning the TV series "Journey to the West" soundtrack "Cloud Palace Swift Sound"! ]

“Awesome!”

The system prompt sounded again, and as his memory was restored, Lin Zhixing excitedly sat up from the bed.

The voice of heaven! This song should only exist in heaven, how many times can it be heard in the world?

The song was composed by mainland master Xu Jingqing. "Cloud Palace Swift Sound" can be called the "number one" electronic music in the country, the undisputed number one.

The "first" electronic music in China was "Arrange Version" by Calabash Brothers, released in January 1986.

This is a masterpiece that has been sung throughout my childhood! This song is also a little special. Like the recently-received "Victory", it also has a female singing part.

But unlike "Victory" which strikes the soul directly, the simple word "Ah" in "Cloud Palace Swift Sound" makes you feel like you are becoming an immortal after listening to it.

Humming the tune of the song.

The sense of immersion was so strong that Lin Zhixing couldn't help but recall the days when he followed Erlang Xiansheng Zhenjun in the Heavenly Palace and lived a life of free food and drink.

These two songs have many similarities, and it will be very interesting to play them in the finals.

One is on earth, the other is in heaven, and war is about to break out.
