Chapter 445: Chinese Kung Fu
After a busy day, after Zhang Lei got home, the first thing he did was to collapse on the sofa in the living room, turn on Xunteng Video, and pick a new TV series to watch.
This has become his daily routine, and it is only when he comes home every day that he can completely relax.
More than a month ago, there was still "Love Apartment" to watch, but now it can only be all kinds of searches.
Zhang Lei's TV at home is connected to Xunteng video.
As soon as he entered the Xunteng Video App, an advertisement jumped out, because Zhang Lei was a member, so he planned to watch the advertisement.
However, he found out that this was an advertisement that even Xunteng video members could not cancel:
"Hello dear friends, long time no see, I'm Liu Zixia!April 25, 2015 at 20 o'clock, "Attack and Defend Road" will be on time to land on Xunteng video, I hope you can like it!"
The first person who appeared in the video advertisement was Liu Zixia, who was seen wearing a white practice uniform, with the three big black characters of 'Attack and Defense' printed on it.
After Liu Zixia finished speaking, the picture turned and the shocking music sounded.
After that, frames of fighting began to appear on the screen, Liu Zixia, Jiang Ziyi, Guan Xiaoshan...... The fight scenes of others, as well as Chen He and others in police uniforms who appeared at the end, all disappeared in the picture.
"Hey, I'll go!"
Zhang Lei, who was paralyzed on the sofa, suddenly came to his senses:
"Damn, is the fight scene just now real? This person can really jump one meter five or six casually? But looking at it, it doesn't look like hanging Weiya?"
Wait a minute...... Is that Liu Zixia who just appeared?
I quickly grabbed the remote control and recoiled to the very beginning of the advertisement.
It's really Liu Zixia, look at this dress, and the one just introduced, it seems to be "Attacking and Defending", right?
It's only been a month, right? "Attack and Defend the Road" has been filmed and is about to be released?
While pressing the play button, Zhang Lei picked up the Qingmei tablet and swiped the news on the Internet, to say that in this era, where is the easiest place to get information and what is the most lively...... Online, of course.
And the fastest and most widespread news is Xianlang Weibo!
Weibo is also full of news about "The Knife of the Third Lady", but at this time, the Weibo of a Weibo big V suddenly jumped onto the Weibo hot search list:
""Attack and Defend the Road" is about to be released, and the theme song "Chinese Kung Fu" will be promoted to awaken the passion of the Chinese people!"
What theme song?
Zhang Lei was stunned for a moment, and when he just wanted to take a look at this Weibo, there was a dull bell on the TV in the living room, and then there were drums and cymbals...... In short, all kinds of traditional Chinese musical instruments are fused together.
It sounds like there's a bit of opera style.
Of course, Zhang Lei can hear that it is opera style, his current work unit is Jinghua Drama Theater, and the people he comes into contact with every day are either opera masters or ticket holders, and he still has this level of appreciation.
Just as he thought of this, a loud singing voice rang out along with the stirring music:
"Lying like a bow
It stands like a pine
Do not move, do not shake, sit like a clock
A gust of wind when walking..."
The singing voice is very gentle, but the words are clear, sonorous, and full of power.
Lying like a bow, standing like a pine, sitting like a clock, shaped like the wind!
Four simple words, but the image of a person who practices martial arts is vividly depicted.
Zhang Lei suddenly raised his head and looked at the TV, but saw that the scene on the TV had changed again: the frames that flashed before had disappeared, and the picture showed a young man who was 1.9 meters tall and wearing a moon-white practice uniform, practicing martial arts.
Although Zhang Lei didn't know martial arts, watching the young man practice every move and style, flowing smoothly and full of a sense of power, gave him a very shocking feeling.
In addition to the young man's martial arts, the background picture is also full of Chinese style, and on the white interface, black ink is stirring back and forth.
It's a traditional Chinese ink!
"South punch and north leg
Less* when the work
Tai Chi Bagua chain palm
China has miraculous powers..."
When the young man finished the drill, the screen turned, and another young man appeared:
is dressed in the same way, but acting in martial arts has become another song routine, even if Zhang Lei is a layman, this can still be seen.
At this time, the music also changed, singing several traditional martial arts routines in China in general, and finally ending with the sentence 'China has divine skills', sublimating Chinese martial arts.
And in the lyrics, whether it is Shaolin, Wudang, Tai Chi, or Bagua, they are all familiar schools or martial arts, which are easy to arouse people's interest.
The ink and blue picture is also surging with the movements of the martial artists in the picture, which is very picturesque!
"Lying like a bow
Standing like a pine...
Tai Chi Bagua chain palm
China has miraculous powers..."
At the end of this song, the tempo of the song suddenly became faster, and then the first two lyrics were sung again.
The singing in the back seems to be more powerful than the gentle one in the front, and the sound of the instruments inside is more varied.
Coupled with the martial arts drills of young people one after another on TV, it makes people feel very immersed.
Zhang Lei even stood up, learned the movements of the young man who was performing martial arts on TV, and practiced together.
That one at a glance, it really looks like it!
It's quite fun to say, a young man of twenty-seven or eighteen years old, like a child, to learn other people's movements.
Fortunately, no one saw it, otherwise he would have been laughed at again!
"Stick sweep a large area
That gun picks a line
The body is as light as a swallow in the clouds
We're in high spirits..."
The rhythm became cheerful, and among the many instruments, the ethereal sound of the dulcimer sounded, giving the song a different kind of charm.
Liu Zixia's singing has also changed from singing to rapping!
Zhang Lei's glasses were already round, he never thought that the combination of pop music and traditional Chinese opera could still sing like this!
This feels a bit like the song "Ink Danqing" that Li Ai just sang before!
It's just that compared with the simplicity and tranquility of "Ink Danqing", this song is more powerful, giving people a feeling of enthusiasm and pride!
No, he suddenly remembered that the lyrics and composers of the song "Ink Danqing" seem to be Liu Zixia, right?
The pioneer of emotional Chinese style songs is Liu Zixia!
"Outside the muscles and bones
It takes a breath of inner practice
Rigidity and softness do not bow their heads
We have heaven and earth in our hearts..."
Liu Zixia's voice is becoming more and more passionate, and he has tried his best to bite the words and take root in the last word of every lyric in this paragraph!
A few simple lyrics summarize the essence of Chinese martial arts.
Practicing martial arts is nothing more than the external muscles and bones, and the internal breath!
Whether it is hard work or qigong, it is not just practiced, but also have a broad mind.
Zhang Lei can't understand this situation, after all, he has not practiced martial arts, but this does not affect his pride from the bottom of his heart.
A sense of pride as a Chinese!
"Lying like a bow
Standing like a pine...
Tai Chi Bagua chain palm
China has miraculous powers..."
Liu Zixia seems to be particularly fond of this sentence, and has sung it three times over and over again from the beginning of the song to the present.
This sounds like an introduction to the martial arts category of China, but in Zhang Lei's view, this is completely promoting the traditional culture of China.
As a drama worker and a promoter of traditional culture, Zhang Lei began to admire Liu Zixia in his heart.
There are so many singers and actors in China...... The celebrities and artists are all talking happily, what is patriotic, loving China, loving China...... But in fact, how many people are really going to do some actual patriotic actions?
......
The same scene happened in Jinghua, Shanghai, and Yangcheng...... and thousands of households in China.
Because in addition to Xunteng video, the three major video websites of i7 Arts and Panda Video, as well as CCTV 6 and Shanghai Movie Channel, simultaneously released the promotional video of "Attacking and Defending".
Changshui City, the director's office of Orange Fruit TV.
Lu Chenghua, Feng Datie and Chen Yixin sat in the office.
In front of them, there is a more than 60-inch LCD screen, which plays the promotional video of "Attack and Defend the Road".
"The Breeze Sword in hand
The twin knives will look away
A connoisseur of kung fu makes a move
He knew if there were..."
The way of rapping, the style of 'Chinese style', coupled with this simplicity, but it can depict a Chinese martial arts master, flashing and moving in front of his eyes, made Lu Chenghua and the three of them sink into the water.
In addition, in the video, the vigorous posture and powerful martial arts drills of the person, the ink and wash are stirring back and forth, which gives them a visual impact.
Not to mention anything else, it is this kind of strong Chinese martial arts style that is enough to make people's hearts surge!
"Hands are two doors
Under the feet are a root
The water and soil of the Quartet have nurtured
Our Chinese martial arts soul..."
The last word of each sentence, in addition to Liu Zixia's clear articulation and heavy falling notes, the chorus voice will also be sung together, creating an echo effect.
And that's not the main thing!
What have the lyrics been talking about this song from the beginning of singing to the present?
Martial arts, and it is also a traditional martial art in China!
In the current environment of the active development of cultural and entertainment undertakings in the Chinese government, inheriting and carrying forward the traditional Chinese culture is what the government has been advocating, which can be said to be the trend of the times!
Liu Zixia's whole song has been repeatedly emphasizing 'Chinese martial arts', which clearly conforms to the Chinese trend and awakens the Chinese people's yearning for martial arts!
This is a tide of positive energy, and this trend is afraid that it can't be stopped at all!
"A dragon in the East
Children are like heroes
The sky is high and the earth is far away from the eight winds
China has miraculous powers
China has miraculous powers!"
In the last part of the song, Liu Zixia returned to the calm state when he started singing.
It's just that compared to the beginning, Liu Zixia's current singing deliberately brings the singing voice of Chinese Peking Opera.
The charm of the combination of pop and tradition, full of the feeling of combining rigidity and softness, chivalrous tenderness, made everyone intoxicated.
Even if Lu Chenghua has a lot of resentment towards Liu Zixia in his heart, he has to admit that this song is not only well written, but even the singing is perfect!
In terms of songwriting and singing, Liu Zixia is indeed the top in China!
