Chapter 243 Five Chinese traditional songs, Guo Jiahe's helper
Inside the Good Luck Studio.
Lin Zhixing, who had interviewed a group of people, rubbed his temples tiredly.
Ideals are full and reality is skinny. After listening to more than 20 songs, not a single piece of it was revealed.
“These students really studied hard!”
Dong Chen shrugged his shoulders in submission, walked to Lin Zhixing and said, "Brother Lin, shorten the interview time. Don't listen to the whole song. Just one minute. If you think it's not good enough, give me a look and I'll be the bad guy!"
"good."
Lin Zhixing thought so too, otherwise he might not be able to finish the interviews until the end of the get off work day.
As he was speaking, the office door was pushed open, and five girls, dressed fashionably and carefully, walked in one after another.
"Why are there so many people coming in at once? Please come in one by one!"
“They are a group.”
Ji Yu introduced to Dong Chen who was confused about the situation.
group?
Lin Zhixing crossed his arms and looked at the five girls standing in a row. He then took the introduction handed over by Ji Yu and took a look at it. He was quite interested. "416 Art Girl Group, right? Introduce yourselves first!"
"Wow, Oh Ye Bro is much more handsome than on TV!"
When the five girls saw Lin Zhixing, there was a hint of admiration in their eyes.
Lin Zhixing's successful career after graduation went viral in major universities, especially art schools, all of which regarded Lin Zhixing as a role model.
The short girl on the far left stepped forward and introduced herself: "I'm the boss Zhu Huan, and I'm a Hua Dan actress."
Then, the girl with a bun next to her introduced herself: "I am the second Cheng Meichen, and I am also a Huadan actress."
The girl with long hair introduced herself: "I am the third sister Yang Qian, and I am a Qingyi actress of the Cheng School."
The girl with the fairest skin introduced herself: "I am the fourth sister Song Jiayin, and I am a Qingyi actress of the Mei School."
The last girl who introduced herself was very plump. "I'm Bian Tingting, the old fifth actress. I'm an old female actress."
"We are the 416 Art Girl Group!" the five of them said in unison.
This self-introduction alone left a deep impression on Lin Zhixing.
"Why are you called this name?"
Lin Zhixing nodded and asked curiously.
Bian Tingting introduced with a smile: "We all live in dormitory 416. The terms boy band and girl band are very popular now, so we came up with a name like this!"
"good."
Lin Zhixing extended his hand and said, "Please start your audition performance. Just sing a cappella."
"Let's sing a piece of Red Plum Opera."
The five girls nodded, looked at each other, and started singing in tacit understanding.
“My father has been telling me since I was a kid.”
“Hongmei Opera is not easy to sing”
The song begins with Cheng style Qingyi Yang Qian and Mei style Qingyi Song Jiayin singing first. The Qingyi singing style is soft and graceful, which slowly brings people into the song.
When it comes to the ups and downs of the song, Zhu Huan and Cheng Meichen, who sing the roles of Huadan, take over. The singing style of Huadan is usually high-pitched and passionate, with clear and bright voices.
The chorus of the two people highlights the word "beauty". Whether it is gestures, posture or stage steps, it is full of beautiful rhythm and rhyme, which makes people feel relaxed and happy, just like a pot of honey water refreshing the heart.
When it came to the chorus, Bian Tingting, who was singing the old woman's voice, took a breath, moved her wrist and started singing.
Her voice is rich and bright, without any feeling of pinching in the throat. As soon as she opens her mouth, there is a feeling of peace and prosperity for the country and the people.
When Bian Tingting sang to an emotional climax, a flame seemed to be burning between her brows, and every movement or look was full of energy, spirit and rhythm.
She was the one who surprised Lin Zhixing the most among the five people.
Just at this moment, a luminous object with golden light fell at her feet.
Lin Zhixing's eyes lit up. The long-awaited fragments finally fell, fully proving the strength of this old woman actor.
When it came to the chorus of the song, they sang together in style, and their coordinated voices were like bamboo shoots sprouting out of the ground after the rain, making the listeners excited.
There is no fixed protagonist among the five people, yet it seems that everyone is the protagonist.
“I’ll go!”
While Lin Zhixing was listening attentively, the other four girls also dropped four-color luminous objects, which was beyond Lin Zhixing's expectations.
Song Ge, Dong Chen and Ji Yu were also deeply attracted by their excellent singing.
Dong Chen suddenly felt that something looked familiar, so he took out his mobile phone and opened the short video platform.
“Good, very good!”
After the five girls finished singing, Lin Zhixing led the applause.
"Thanks!"
"Let me ask!"
Dong Chen raised his phone and asked curiously, "Is the 416 Art Girls Group your account on Douyang? This account has 16,000 fans?"
"Yes."
The five girls nodded, and Bian Tingting explained with a smile: "I started this account by accident. At the beginning, our teacher asked us to submit our graduation works as a souvenir. We all used our own different singing styles, filmed a video together, and posted it on the short video platform with a playful attitude. I didn't expect that someone would actually like it."
Dong Chen nodded, "I just watched two of them, and I don't think the content is pure drama, right?"
"Yes."
Cheng Meichen nodded and said, "Many of the songs we selected either have some opera tunes or are ancient style songs. We used some of the pronunciations and articulations of drama, as well as the eye expressions and fingerings in our opera to create some of the songs."
"More than 10,000 fans is a bit small. I have more than 6 million fans."
Lin Zhixing glanced at Dong Chen who was making the Versailles remarks, and said in a low voice: "Keep a low profile, kid."
Bian Tingting smiled and scratched her head. "Having more than 10,000 fans is beyond our expectation. During the low period, the number of fans has always been around 1,000."
"I think you have a good vision, know how to innovate, and know how to grasp the preferences of young people."
Dong Chen pointed at Lin Zhixing who was very satisfied with them and asked with a raised eyebrow: "Is it possible that you are not popular because your songs are not good?"
"Did you see my sunglasses?"
Dong Chen pointed to the sunglasses on his forehead and said, "Because Brother Lin is so talented and glittering, I have to wear sunglasses when I'm with him. It's because I have people like him around me that I have 6 million fans."
Lin Zhixing glanced at Dong Chen and suppressed the curled corners of his mouth.
Mr. Flatterer, you know how to praise people.
Song Ge and Ji Yu were also amused.
Lin Zhixing, who was about to fail, interrupted Dong Chen, gave a thumbs up and said, "416 Art Girl Group, congratulations on passing the interview!"
After that, he gave Ji Yu a look and said, "Here is a drafted contract. You can discuss it carefully and give me a reply before noon."
“Okay, okay!”
Seeing that the interview was successful and the contract was handed in, the five girls were ecstatic and nodded repeatedly to express their gratitude.
They walked out of the office excitedly, clutching the contract. When the other interviewees saw the first person who passed the interview appear, they were extremely envious.
…
In the office.
Lin Zhixing stretched, and taking advantage of the introduction of the activity, he came to the position where they had just sung, and touched the light source with his toes.
The moment you touch the light source, a system prompt sound will be heard.
【bite!】
[Singing skills (opera singing) proficiency +3 points. ]
【Current: Xiqiang C (2/10). 】
Upgraded!!! "People say that deep in the land of flowers"
"An old lover lives there, sewing embroidered shoes..."
Lin Zhixing hummed softly, trying out the effect of the upgrade. He clearly felt that humming was less strenuous and his throat was much more relaxed.
【bite!】
[Singing skills (opera singing) proficiency +2 points. ]
【Current: Xiqiang C (4/10). 】
【bite!】
[Proficiency +3 points...]
After all five fragments were picked up, "Xiqiang" ushered in its second upgrade.
【Current: Xiqiang B (0/50). 】
"People say that deep in the land of flowers..."
Lin Zhixing tried it again, and this time he felt he could control his movements freely, with the effect obviously greatly improved.
…
Exactly twelve o'clock noon.
"Ok, let's stop here for now! We'll continue the interview at 1:30 pm!"
It was time for lunch. After clearing out the interviewees squatting in the corridor, Lin Zhixing and three other people were discussing what takeout to eat for lunch when there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Come in!"
The door was pushed open, and the five girls who passed the interview walked in with their contracts and smiled, "Brother Lin, we have discussed it, and we are willing to sign a contract with Good Luck Studio."
Lin Zhixing and the other three applauded and welcomed him, "Well, Good Luck Studio welcomes you to join us!"
“It’s my pleasure!”
As the five girls signed their names, the system prompt sounded suddenly at the moment they put pen to paper.
【bite!】
[The special mission has been completed. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the song "Exploring the Window"! ]
When his memory came back, Lin Zhixing was stunned.
The song "Looking into the Window" is a Chinese opera song sung by Fu Sheng Meng/Guo Feng Xin Yu/Xiao Yin She, but it was the "Shanghai Theatre Academy 416 Girls Group" who made it really popular.
The version of "Tan Chuang" they sang has been played more than 50 million times on the short video platform, with more than 2.5 million likes, and it became an instant hit on the entire Internet.
He was also interviewed by CCTV and appeared on CCTV's "Classics Sings" program and Bilibili's Lantern Festival Gala.
Lin Zhixing liked them very much at that time and followed every member.
Today, they signed a contract with the "416 Art Girl Group" which is so similar to them at Blue Star. It is really a special fate.
【bite!】
[The special mission has been completed. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the song "Chi Ling"! ]
The system prompt sounded again, and as his memory was restored, the corners of Lin Zhixing's mouth curled up to his ears.
This song "Chi Ling" can be said to be one of the most popular opera songs on the earth.
"In troubled times, duckweed cannot bear to watch the flames of war burn the mountains and rivers"
"Even though I am in a low position, I still dare not forget my country"
These two lines of lyrics, coupled with the red video, are full of immersion and are deeply loved by netizens.
Lin Zhixing also likes this song very much, especially the cover version by Tan Da Mowang. The national team is so powerful when they sing it.
I always felt uncomfortable listening to it at first, but it became much more comfortable after I knelt down.
This song definitely has the potential to become a hit.
【bite!】
[The special mission has been completed. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the song "Pulling Silk Play"! ]
Another hit song with over 9.99 million collections on QQ Music.
When Lin Zhixing first heard "The Silk-pulling Opera", his soul was deeply moved. It turns out that traditional Chinese music can be so beautiful and easy to understand.
Then I read the copy, and I was even more in awe, thinking that Chinese style music really has a future! Then I looked for people on the web and forums who praised it, and not only did my wish come true, but I also got an unexpected reward, seeing several touching fan articles.
I even started collecting information on quyi, hoping to deepen my understanding of it and continue to explore the beauty of traditional culture.
Of course, I also saw a lot of doubts, such as forcing rhymes and words not expressing the meaning clearly.
However, Lin Zhixing feels that this song is a traditional Chinese work whose merits outweigh its flaws.
【bite!】
[The special mission has been completed. Congratulations to the host for winning the song "Wanjiang"! ]
As his memory came back, Lin Zhixing gave a thumbs up in his heart.
This is a song by Mr. Li Yugang.
The song "The New Drunken Concubine" with a female opera voice made him known to audiences all over the country. He is truly one of the earliest singers who is good at opera voice.
The song "Wanjiang" praises the motherland and allows listeners to feel the greatness of the motherland. It is a high-quality work that can be performed on a big stage.
【bite!】
[The special mission has been completed. Congratulations to the host for winning the song "Huo Yuanjia"! ]
Jay Chou’s song!
This song is the theme song composed by Jay Chou for Jet Li's movie "Huo Yuanjia". At that time, it was repeatedly rejected by Jet Li, but Jay Chou insisted again and again and finally created this song.
This song is really difficult to sing, not only because of the opera singing style, but also because the rap part is very fast.
It seems that I can only control this song myself.
…
Six o'clock in the evening.
"knock off!"
"I'm so tired. The remaining people will be gone for half a day tomorrow!"
【Current: Xiqiang B (21/50). 】
Lin Zhixing and his three companions interviewed for a whole day. Although they also picked up fragments of opera singing dropped by other interviewees, the singing level of those people was far inferior to that of the "416 Art Girl Group".
Adhering to the principle of selecting the best from the best, Lin Zhixing did not admit them.
…
…
Haiyun Records Company.
In an office.
"Brother Huan, I would like to invite you to be the guest singer on my show "I Am the King of Singers."
Guo Jiahe nodded and bowed, lit a cigarette and poured water, begging a well-mannered man named "Cheng Huan" who was in his early thirties and wore gold-rimmed glasses.
This man named Cheng Huan is one of the pillars of Haiyun Records. Although he is not very old, he has been in the music industry for ten years.
His albums are hits every year and he has won numerous awards in the music industry. He truly became famous at a young age and was voted by netizens as one of the "Four Heavenly Kings" of the new era.
The reason why Guo Jiahe could lower himself to such a low level and beg like that was not entirely because of his singing ability.
Cheng Huan had helped Guo Jiahe when he was a rookie. He has a good character, is talented, humble, and only focuses on his work. He is the kind of person that people are willing to call "brother".
Cheng Huan pinched his cigarette, looked at Guo Jiahe's dejected look, and asked curiously: "I didn't pay attention to that show, but I think it should be okay for you to ask your team to help sing, right?"
"Something went wrong..."
Guo Jiahe told him about the conflict between him and Lin Zhixing, exaggerating it. In just five minutes, Lin Zhixing was ruined.
"Is it Lin Zhixing?"
After listening to what Guo Jiahe said, Cheng Huan was silent for a long time. He stood in front of the window sill thoughtfully and took the last puff of his cigarette.
Then he exhaled a long puff of smoke and said, "I don't know if I can handle it."
