Chapter 280 "We Will Rock You" ignites the World Cup

Inside the Good Luck Studio.

"You are a bunch of ignorant trolls. Tomorrow I will teach you a lesson about what it means to be a fine person!"

After hanging up the phone, Lin Zhixing pounded the table with lingering anger, then stood up and prepared to go to the practice room.

Tomorrow is the most watched competition, so the song "We will rock you" must be produced as quickly as possible.

"Brother Lin, where are you going?"

Dong Chen followed him worriedly and consoled him: "Let's not get angry with those foreign trolls. They all look at us with discrimination and are deliberately slandering us!"

"I'm fine."

Lin Zhixing waved his hands and suddenly thought, "Let's gather everyone who has time to come to the practice room. I want to record a song now!"

"Oh, OK, OK, I'll contact you right away."

Dong Chen breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he had turned his anger into work. He nodded and immediately went to make arrangements.

…

…

In the singing room.

Lin Zhixing powered up all the instruments, put the printed music scores on the shelf, and then picked up the electric guitar to practice with accompaniment.

“We will we will rock you”

“We will we will rock you”

He practiced singing the song twice, and sang it with all his heart, but Lin Zhixing always felt that something was missing. The high notes felt restrained and his emotions couldn't come out.

Just as I was worrying about what was wrong, Dong Chen pushed the door open and walked in, wiping his sweat with a tissue and said, "Brother Lin, I have already greeted everyone. About 20 people will come. Ge Zi is going to accompany Ji Yu to look at wedding dresses, so they won't come."

"Okay, more than 20 people are enough."

Lin Zhixing nodded, his eyes fell on the tissue that Dong Chen was using to wipe his sweat, and suddenly he realized, "Let them wait here for me, practice the music first, I'll be back soon!"

Ten minutes later...

Members of the Tang Music Band and the Voice of the Heart Band, as well as composers who were not busy with work in the composition department, all came to the practice room.

"Why did Brother Lin call us here?"

"I heard it was a song recording."

"Record a song? But I'm tone-deaf..."

Just when everyone was talking in confusion, Lin Zhixing pushed the door and walked in, followed by a burst of exclamations from the practice room.

Lin Zhixing was shirtless, with a towel around his neck and only boxer shorts on his lower body. He looked like he had just come out of a bathhouse.

"Did you just take a shower?"

"My goodness, Brother Lin's figure is so enviable!"

"Wow, these abdominal muscles and mermaid lines, I really want to touch them!"

Everyone felt very curious and talked about it while staring at it.

Lin Zhixing felt that the feeling of restraint just now might be because he was wearing too many clothes, so he changed into the same uniform as that worn by Queen's lead singer Uncle Ya.

—Shorts and a towel.

Lin Zhixing once didn’t understand why Uncle Ya dressed like that when singing, but later he understood.

Uncle Ya saved all his clothing money and gave it to Adam Lambert, the lead singer of Queen.

Dong Chen curled his lips at Lin Zhixing's outfit, and approached him and asked, "Brother Lin, what do you need us to do now?"

"cough."

Lin Zhixing cleared his throat, clapped his hands to gather everyone together, and explained: "I need everyone to stomp their feet and clap their hands to the rhythm, and also need to sing in harmony."

After the demonstration, everyone looked at each other and felt it was very novel.

“Is it okay to record songs like this?”

"This is quite interesting, a bit like the clapping exercise, let's give it a try!"

…

After some preparation and everyone working together in harmony, the first recording session began with a gesture from Lin Zhixing.

“Bang, bang, bang…bang, bang…”

Lin Zhixing felt the powerful rhythm of the music, grabbed the standing microphone, and began to sing.

"Buddy you're a boy make a big noise"

You're a kid who only knows how to yell "Playing in the street gonna be a big man someday"

Hanging out on the streets hoping to become a big shot someday

“Wow!”

During the singing, Lin Zhixing's eyes lit up.

After taking off my clothes, the previous feeling of restraint really disappeared, like a wild horse breaking free from its reins.

What's the principle behind this? Dong Chen stopped him and said, "Brother Lin, you can't take off your pants anymore!"

…

After the song was finished, everyone was shocked.

Zheng Lili, the leader of Tang Music Team, widened her eyes and clapped her hands, "Brother Lin, this rock song you wrote is amazing. It sounds so cool!"

Lin Zhixing smiled and nodded.

This song is more than just awesome!

In 2004, "We Will Rock You" was ranked 330th in the Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time, proving its influence in music history. In 2008, the song was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame, further proving its status and influence in music history.

"Brother, I admire you so much!"

Xiao Song from the composition department was full of admiration and looked at Lin Zhixing as if he was the God of Literature who had descended to earth.

He thought the arrangement of this song was very clever, using chorus, stomping feet and clapping to create the effect of many people participating. This arrangement would be very contagious during live performances and would definitely trigger a warm response from the audience.

I have already imagined the scene of thousands of people singing and clapping at a concert.

Han Tao, leader of the Soul Vocals Band, raised his thumbs and said, "I like rock music. But after listening to foreign rock music, I can't listen to domestic music anymore. I think the reason is that there is no real rock music soil in China. This song will definitely create rock music soil in China."

“Thank you everyone!”

Lin Zhixing thinks that the term "rock soil" should be put aside.

The decline of Chinese rock music is largely due to the fact that the predecessors were too powerful. At that time, the audiences were just exposed to rock music, and they were exposed to the peak of rock music.

"Next, let's hit the rock market hard!"

…

…

At twelve o'clock the next day.

Inside the Bird's Nest Stadium.

The much anticipated match between Samba Country and Fani Country is about to begin.

The Chinese corner of the stadium's audience seats was filled with Chinese celebrities, ready to witness this ultimate showdown and ease the emotions of the Chinese national football team being beaten 6-0.

"Teacher Wang, is that you?"

"Oh, what a coincidence, you are Xiao Guo, the leader of the boy band Super July M, right?"

"It's me, it's me. Do you still remember me?"

"I've been in all of the shows that left a deep impression on me. Didn't you win first place?"

"Yes, yes, thank you for supporting me."

Guo Jiahe was depressed after being eliminated. A friend gave him a ticket to the World Cup, thinking that he could watch the game to relax, but he didn't expect that the person sitting next to him was rock singer Wang Feng.

Coincidentally, Wang Feng was one of the judges in the trainee competition he participated in that year, and the two had known each other for a long time.

"Which team do you support?"

Wang Feng handed over the popcorn in his hand and asked with a smile.

"Fani country!"

Guo Jiahe picked up a grain of popcorn, put it in his mouth, and explained: "Samba country Maer used discriminatory words to insult China. I don't like him. What about you, Teacher Wang?"

This sentence left Wang Feng speechless. He could only swallow the word "samba" and said "Fani" against his will.

As they were talking, the game started and cheers rang out.

After a fierce battle, the defending champion France beat Samba 2-0 at halftime.

"Cool!"

Seeing that the home team was leading by a large margin, Guo Jiahe raised his arms and shouted excitedly, releasing a lot of the suppressed emotions in his heart.

Wang Feng's face turned pale. If he lost the game, he would be at a huge loss.

…

Halftime.

In the broadcast room.

"Wow, Brother Lin's new song is here!"

Lili, the staff member in charge of music, rubbed her hands and dragged the song file sent by Lin Zhixing into the music player with anticipation on her face.

Soon, the song "We Will Rock You" filled the venue.

“Bang, bang, bang…bang, bang…”

The neat clapping sounds of the prelude flowed out from the speakers, and the audience was gradually infected. They felt like clap along with the beat, and their excitement gradually increased.

Lin Zhixing's singing voice sounded at the right time.

"Buddy you're a boy make a big noise"

You're a kid who only knows how to yell "Playing in the street gonna be a big man someday"

Hanging out on the streets hoping to become a big shot someday

The sound was telling, powerful, and even more like a hysterical explosion and shout. The audience couldn't help but nod along with the music.

Chinese audience seats.

As a rock singer, Wang Feng has a very keen sense of rock music.

The melody is simple and bright, and the three-note rhythm is highly recognizable. Judging from the on-site effect, some audiences have already clapped and nodded along.

It’s so simple, yet it can achieve such excellent results. The creator must have something!

Guo Jiahe didn't take it seriously at first and nodded along to the song, but as he listened more he felt something was wrong.

This voice sounds familiar.

Why does it sound a bit like Lin Zhixing's voice? Could it be him?

Guo Jiahe was not quite sure. He had never heard him sing this song, so it was unlikely that the new song would appear here.

The players' bench off the field.

"In the second half, we have to double-team Fani's sports car and not give him a chance to catch the ball!"

"Hey, are you listening to me?"

The coach was arranging tactics and found that the players were distracted and were even nodding along with the music.

…

“You got mud on your face you big disgrace”

You're so embarrassed.

“Kicking your can all over the place singing”

Kick the tin can around and sing

“This song is great!”

While Wang Feng was clapping along with the audience, he turned around and asked, "Xiao Guo, do you know who sings this song? This is the first time I heard it today."

After Lin Zhixing acquired the golden finger of language learning ability, it was hard to tell that he was Chinese when he sang English songs. Wang Feng couldn't hear it at all.

The more carefully Guo Jiahe listened to the song, the more his brows furrowed.

I started listening to Lin Zhixing singing on the show “The Birth of a Group”, and after that I’ve competed with him for so many episodes, I know his voice characteristics very well.

"I...I think his voice sounds like Lin Zhixing. Maybe he is the one singing this song."

"ah?"

Wang Feng was very surprised. He closed his eyes and listened carefully. The tone was really familiar.

Lin Zhixing sang "See you again" on "Singing Around the World". Wang Feng has heard him sing English songs and thinking back, the voices are really similar.

The two brothers who had been defeated by Lin Zhixing fell silent at this moment.

“We will we will rock you”

We want to shock you

When the chorus comes, the passionate lyrics ignite the audience's emotions.

The players of the Fani team and the Samba team felt very involved in the song and felt like they were already on the podium.

"Sing it"

Sing "Everybody" out loud

Let's all come together

As soon as these two lines of lyrics came out, the foreign audiences could no longer hold back their excitement and roared along with the music.

“We will we will rock you”

“We will we will rock you”

When all the audience moved in unison with the rhythm, all they could feel was the incomparable shock brought by rock music.

The Bird's Hole Stadium, which can accommodate 100,000 spectators, has become a bustling sea.

In terms of clapping and slogan-like chorus, there is probably no other song more suitable for sports events than "We Will Rock You".

Chinese audience seats.

The Chinese audience was also moved by the emotion of this song, but as they were not good at English, they could only sing a few lines of "we will we will rock you" in a heroic manner.

Then we fell into silence again, quietly waiting for the next we will we will rock you.

"Oh my god, just one song has attracted a chorus of 100,000 people!"

Wang Feng felt that today was really an eye-opener, seeing and hearing things he had never seen or heard before.

The song's success seemed inevitable.

While feeling envious, this song also gave him inspiration for creation.

It seems that a good rock song does not necessarily need a particularly sophisticated arrangement. A song like this one with a simple melody but strong appeal will also be successful.

"What's the name of this song? I love it so much!"

"Is this the theme song of the Chinese World Cup?"

“Oh my god, this is the best song I’ve ever heard in a stadium!”

After listening to the song, the foreign audiences were talking to each other, asking or searching for the name of the song based on the lyrics. The game situation was ignored at this moment.

In the broadcast room.

Although staff member Lili did not appreciate this song, she was really shocked to see that it could be sung by 100,000 people.

"You are indeed the man I like!"

After the song was finished, Lili smiled and played the audio of "The Most Dazzling Ethnic Style".

"The vast horizon is my love~~"

Listening to the familiar melody, Guo Jiahe and Wang Feng looked at each other, and then lowered their heads silently.

The case is solved. It seems that the song just now was really written by Lin Zhixing.

…

The second half of the game begins.

“We will we will rock you”

The Samba team members entered the stadium humming a song, which encouraged the Samba team during the half-time break and rekindled their fighting spirit.

"The Samba team scored a goal!"

"The Samba team scored again!"

20 minutes into the second half, the Samba team scored two goals in a row to tie the score, raising the suspense of victory or defeat again.

"The Fani team is just so-so. Come on, brothers, work harder and break through their defense!"

Facing the provocation of their opponents, the members of the Fani team smiled evilly, "Don't forget, we just listened to that song too!"

"Fani's team scored a goal!"

"Fani's team scored again!"

"The final whistle sounded, Fani 4-2 Samba!"

"We won! Team Fani won!"

…

Inside the auditorium.

The cheers and lively atmosphere had nothing to do with Guo Jiahe and Wang Feng. Their emotions at this moment had reached the brink of collapse.

Especially Guo Jiahe, his body was shaking uncontrollably.

He never expected that the terrible shadow was still looming over him.

There is no escape...
