Chapter 239 The spotlight is not on? It turns out that it is the shadow left by Feng Qi Wu Tong!
The next morning.
Because the "Singing Around the World" program is about to end, the singers cherish this stage especially. The singers who need arrangements went to meet the arranger teachers early in the morning to prepare for tonight's competition.
Previously, this show was not popular abroad, and tickets were always given away. Although Ulaanbaatar is not part of China, the language is common, and there are domestic audiences to support it, so the tickets were sold out in seconds. The audience is full of expectations for their performance tonight.
Inside the hotel.
"Come in!"
Director Hao Xu, who had just finished breakfast, was browsing topics about the program on Weibo and was very surprised that Wang Feng suddenly came to him.
"Have you eaten yet?"
"have eaten."
Hao Xu poured Wang Feng a cup of tea. After a few pleasantries, Wang Feng got straight to the point and said, "Director Hao, I came here to ask where the production crew plans to choose for the finale?"
"I think that we shouldn't choose places with special languages, such as Guangcheng and Jiangcheng. This will put singers who are not good at the language at a disadvantage in the competition."
Hao Xu understood what Wang Feng meant. It was indeed embarrassing that Feng Qi Wu Tong left other singers with zero votes in the last episode, and the program team also considered this aspect.
"That's true!"
Hao Xu took a sip of tea and said to him with ease: "The recording location of our show for the final battle is in Peking, and there will be no advantages or disadvantages in the competition!"
Peking!!!
Wang Feng's eyes immediately showed joy.
One of his famous songs, "Beiping Beiping", has a place to be used! If this song is brought out, there will be no rival in the next show!

Chinese Writers Association.
"Our bard is writing poetry again!"
Guan Rui, the president of the Writers Association, who became a fan of Fengqi Wutong because of "Wishing You Good Luck", learned that Lin Zhixing had written another poem. He liked it very much after tasting it and immediately organized the association members to appreciate it together.
The members sat around the dining table, which was set with several dishes and bottles of white wine.
"Hello, President!"
"Hello everyone!"
Guan Rui greeted the members and sat down with a smile. As soon as he glanced at the table, his face suddenly darkened. He pointed at the wine on the table and said, "What kind of wine is this? This poem must be paired with Maotai!"
"Yes, President!"
The Moutai liquor was served on the table. Guan Rui picked up the cup and chanted in a rhythmic manner.
"When life is good, enjoy it to the fullest, don't let the golden cup face the moon empty."
"I was born with talents that will be useful, even if I lose all my money, I will get it back."
The members applauded.
âWhat a great poem!â
"You chant better than our bard!"
Guan Rui smiled and said, "It's very different. We should help the bard to promote this poem and try to integrate it into the drinking culture! At the same time, I suggest that we hold another song appreciation meeting of Feng Qi Wu Tong tonight!"
The members cursed in their hearts and applauded continuously, "Great idea, President!"

6:30 pm.
Ulaanbaatar Grand Theater.
The audience lined up early to enter the venue, and the conversation couldn't help but talk about the song "Night in Ulaanbaatar" sung by Lin Zhixing on the show last night.
The local audiences were full of praise for the song.
It would be cool to go to a city and write a song for a city.
In the backstage lounge.
âBrother Lin!â
Dong Chen held his phone in his hand and came to Lin Zhixing, who was resting with his eyes closed. He said excitedly, "The song 'Night in Ulaanbaatar' that you wrote last night has become very popular. A singer in Ulaanbaatar has already asked for the copyright to cover it. Is there any problem in writing a complete version?"
Ji Yu grinned at Dong Chen and interrupted, "Are you questioning Brother Lin? Sell it if the price is right!"
Lin Zhixing gave Ji Yu a thumbs up and kicked Dong Chen, "Your bonus this month is gone!"
âŚ
Seven o'clock in the evening.
After a gesture of silence from the on-site director, the live broadcast room of "Singing Around the World" was officially opened. The long-awaited audience instantly flocked into the live broadcast room and typed barrages.
"First, the sofa!"
"Brother Feng, come on! You didn't sing last time, so sing one more song this time!"
"Singing Around the World cannot exist without Oh Ye Ge, just like China cannot exist without Ulaanbaatar!"
âŚ
After a round of enthusiastic applause, the female host came to the center of the stage and introduced with a smile: "The champion of the fourth episode of "Singing Around the World" will be voted by 500 audience members on site. I hope everyone can enjoy today's music stage to their heart's content."
"Let's welcome the first contestant with warm applause. Please listen to Feng Qi Wu Tong's song "Galloping Horses"!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the song information appeared on the stage screen.
ăGalloping Horsesă
[Phoenix perches on the sycamore]
ăLyrics: Lin Zhixingă
ăComposition: Lin Zhixingă
ăArranger: Lin Zhixingă
"Come on, let's achieve our fourth consecutive championship tonight!"
Before Feng Qi Wu Tong even appeared on stage, the audience gave her thunderous applause.
ăbite!ă
[System missions are enabled with simple difficulty. Win the first place in tonight's song competition. Complete the task and you will be rewarded with a random song from Earth.]
Lin Zhixing and Song Ge, dressed in grassland costumes, came out with a smile and waved, and there was another scream from the audience.
Backstage lounge.
When Wang Feng heard the title of this song, he choked on the water he was drinking. He immediately felt something was wrong. "Are there any more songs of this type?"
Damn it, this precision strike trick really made them take advantage of it! ...
A prelude with a strong grassland flavor flowed out from the speakers. This familiar style immediately brightened the eyes of the audience.
âIt feels like Over the Moon!â
In front of the screen, many netizens have started calling their parents, grandparents to listen together.
Amid the audience's anticipation, Song Ge slowly raised the microphone.
"I can't dream of the bright moonlight"
"Like losing your eyes and falling into a deserted city"
âI canât kiss the strong fragrance of flowersâ
âItâs like losing your soul and feeling lonelyâ
She is really good at singing this kind of songs. As soon as she opens her mouth, it seems as if she brings the fans back to the stage of "The Birth of a Group". It's a familiar feeling.
âI canât hear the clatter of horse hoovesâ
"The world is silent and there is no way back"
"If you don't wake me up"
"I have to wait for the next life to travel the world"
In front of the camera, Song Ge sang emotionally, while Lin Zhixing stood there quietly like a statue, no different from the audience.
This familiar scene made the fans laugh like crazy.
"Okay, okay, oh yeah, you're paddling again, right?"
"Ge Tu has nothing to do with Oh Ye Ge, because he doesn't have a single line of lyrics, hahahaha!"
âŚ
When the chorus came, Lin Zhixing, who had been preparing for a long time, raised the microphone and stepped forward to sing with Song Ge.
"I will ride my horse to your arms"
"Solve the mystery of longing, a thousand-year dream"
âThe sky remains blue even though the sea of ââclouds is vastâ
"When the horse piano sounded, my worries instantly melted away"
The two of them sang in perfect harmony, giving off a sense of desolate and heroic spirit, as if two men of the Jianghu were wandering the world hand in hand on a horse. The live broadcast room received rave reviews.
"This is Chinese music. All the sorrows will instantly disappear when you hear this melody. It is majestic and yet emotional. It directly crushes all those songs that are full of whining!"
"As a post-00s person, I really like this kind of songs. Feng Qi Wu Tong's songs are bold, free and unrestrained, much better than many pretentious songs nowadays. I am not afraid of being laughed at for being tacky. The more I listen to this kind of songs, the more I like them!"
"When I heard this song, I put on my headphones and turned up the volume on my phone. Then the system prompted that the volume was too high and it would damage my hearing. I yelled at the phone, 'You know nothing! ! ! ! '"
"My grandma has poor hearing. Ever since I set the song by Feng Qi Wu Tong as her ringtone, she knows there's a call when she sees the dog shaking its head!"
âŚ
In the heated atmosphere, Lin Zhixing began his solo rap.
"Drinking a few glasses of mare's milk can't relieve a thousand years of sorrow"
"Sing a few more love songs and you will understand loneliness"
"Happiness is all over the hillside, is it the sheep or the clouds?"
"From now on, I will never let go of the boundless freedom"
The song "Galloping Horses" features a flowing and majestic melody, Song Ge's recognizable explosive performance, and Lin Zhixing's rhythmic grassland-style rap that complements each other.
Off screen.
Chinese Writers Association.
When learning the title of the song, Guan Rui, president of the Writers Association, gave members a topic, which was how to use words to describe the scene of "galloping horses".
However, the members were all in a dilemma and their descriptions were not satisfactory.
After listening to the song composed by Lin Zhixing, the members were suddenly enlightened.
"Wonderful! It's wonderful!"
"I want to ride my horse across the endless sky, sweeping away the wind and rain and creating a rainbow. The answer lies in this line of lyrics!"
Member Xiao Wang in the crowd raised his hand, and everyone looked at him. Xiao Wang was no ordinary person, as he became a professor of literature at a university at a young age.
Xiao Wang stroked his chin and expressed his opinion, "When the horse galloped through the puddle, the horse's hooves rose and fell, and the water splashed, as if it was a small storm. The water vapor refracted in the sunlight, and the colorful rainbow looked like it."
"The wind, rain and rainbow describe the galloping scene, and the use of "roll" and "gallop" is wonderful, which really makes the "galloping horse" vivid. The bard is so amazing, it is rare to see someone who can describe this scene in detail with words."
After hearing this answer, the other members applauded in agreement.
Guan Rui put his hands behind his back, walked to Xiao Wang's side, and patted his shoulder with satisfaction, "Very good, just as I thought!"
âŚ
Gorgeous center stage.
Lin Zhixing's rapping like a grassland bandit made the audience enjoy it and pushed the atmosphere to a climax.
The singers backstage looked at the heated atmosphere and felt a familiar sense of fear.
Could it be that all the tickets tonight are his again? Lin Zhixing and Song Ge's singing gradually became more and more popular, and they ended the song with a chorus.
"I want to ride my horse across the endless sky"
"The wind and rain roll down and a rainbow rises"
"Drifting in your heart, happiness remains"
"A wisp of breeze brings us together in our past and present lives"
With the last perfect long note, the audience gave warm applause before the accompaniment ended.
"It's so exciting. If Genghis Khan had this music, why would we need a visa to go to Europe now?"
"The song of Feng Qi Wu Tong has been engraved in my mind. Anyone who can't sing it will be considered a spy!"
"My excitement can be summed up in two words: Yeah!"
âŚ
Why isn't the stage spotlight on?
Oh, it turned out to be the shadow left by the Phoenix Tree.
After Feng Qi Wu Tong finished singing, the singers took the stage one by one with trepidation, but just as they expected, the atmosphere was much worse.
After all the singers finished their performance, the program team collected votes from 500 audience members on site.
Five minutes later, the staff handed the collected data to the host, and the singers returned to the stage and lined up in a row.
"The votes today shouldn't be as disparate as before, right?"
"Oh my god, I don't want to keep getting 0 eggs this time!"
Except for Feng Qi Wutong and Wang Feng, all the singers were under great pressure. The four 0 votes in the last issue even became a hot topic on Weibo, which was quite embarrassing.
The host opened the envelope and announced, "We have collected a total of 500 tickets, 400 for Feng Qi Wu Tong, 50 for Wang Feng, 20 for Deng Xiao Yu, 20 for Zhang Hui Chen, 5 for Mao Nan, and 5 for Fei Yue Qi Ji."
When the singers heard the results, they shrugged their shoulders helplessly. They really tried their best, but they just couldn't win.
"Congratulations to Feng Qi Wu Tong for winning the fourth episode of our "Singing Around the World"!"
Well-deserved, the audience gave thunderous applause.
"Good, we have successfully won four consecutive championships!"
"Let's win from start to finish!"

Backstage lounge.
"By the way, Director Hao, have you chosen the location for the next finale?"
After the recording was finished, the singers were very curious about the next recording location.
Hao Xu did not hide it and said frankly: "The program team has already decided on the location in Beiping."
Peking?
All the singers felt it was a good idea to record the finale at their doorstep, saving travel time.
ăbite!ă
[System task of simple difficulty has been completed. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the song "One night in Beiping"! ] (The word "Beijing" will be automatically masked as letters.) The system prompt sounded suddenly, and all the memories about the song were recovered.
When hearing this song, Lin Zhixing couldn't help but think of his days as a migrant worker in Beijing, and felt a lot of emotion.
"One Night in Beiping" was sung by Chen S (banned) and Liu Jiahui.
The creation process of this song was very interesting. The original singer and his arranger went to Baihua Street in Beijing to create a movie soundtrack, but they could never find the feeling.
The original singer hummed "Why in Beiping" in Minnan dialect in frustration, which sounded very much like the pronunciation of "One night in Beijing" in English. The arranger applauded loudly, and the two returned to the recording studio to transform the simple few bars into a classic.
It is said that this song was only one vote away from becoming the theme song of the Beijing Olympic Games.
However, what people really know about this song is the cover version by Shin Band.
This song is a model of pop music and national quintessence. It perfectly blends the original rock music with the singing style of Peking Opera, allowing the Shin band to occupy its own niche in that era when there were many fierce competition among the gods.
Among all the songs by Shin band, this is Lin Zhixingâs favorite.
This song is extremely difficult to sing. It can be said that no one can sing it except Ashin.
Many male singers have covered this song, including Xiao Gang, Wang Zulan, Xiao Jingteng, Zhang Xinzhe... Netizens commented that the song sounded like someone couldn't poop, and it also sounded a bit like a father-in-law.
Even female singers like the queen Faye Wong and Na Ying cannot sing with that feeling. Lin Zhixing thinks the only one who sang a good cover is Angela Chang.
Folk song + rap = "Rice Fragrance".
Folk song + rap = "Homeland".
Rock + Errenzhuan = "Xianer".
This song âOne Night in Beipingâ is a combination of rock and Peking Opera, it is unique!
Thinking of this, the corners of Lin Zhixing's mouth gradually rose to his ears.
"Leave the innovation of songs in the music industry to me, Lin!"
The other side.
At this moment, Wang Feng looked at Lin Zhixing who was smiling with his lips pursed, and the corners of his mouth also rose to his ears.
In the final battle, no matter you are the "King of Rap" or the "No. 1" in the music composition world, you have to coil up like a dragon or lie down like a tiger.
"You have to listen to me in my territory!"
