Chapter 442: Chorus Guest Candidates

Olympic village.

Inside the office.

Han Qiang, the person in charge of the Olympic Committee, held the manuscript in his hand, his eyebrows raised slightly, this song is okay from the name.

I just don't know what the content is.

He played music when he was young, and he didn't know much about music, so he could understand all these things written by He Xiao.

And Wang Shi and Liao Yuqing are completely here to join in the fun, don't look at the fact that they have both run large-scale music events and variety shows, but in fact, they don't know anything about music at all.

"What is this?"

The two of them were at a loss in their hearts at this time, just like Wang Baoqiang in "People in Embarrassment", they squeezed their eyes and didn't understand for a long time.

On the contrary, Han Qiang understood it and couldn't help but nodded, this lyrics and music are really good as the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.

"Xiao He, can you simply sing it?" asked Han Qiang.

"Done. ”

He Xiao cleared his throat and sang the whole song according to the melody in his memory, and this time Wang Shi and Liao Yuqing also understood.

"Well sung!"

As soon as the singing ended, Liao Yuqing applauded quite applauded.

Everyone unanimously agreed on the song, and no one had an opinion.

All this is expected by He Xiao, because this "Me and You" was originally the theme song of the Olympic Games in another parallel world!

The Yenching Olympics in that world were held as early as 08, a full decade earlier than He Xiao's world.

At that time, the Olympic Organizing Committee of the world solicited theme songs around the world, and a total of four periods were held, and more than 90,000 entries were received, but because most of the creations of non-professionals could not reach the ideal level, there were no satisfactory works.

In desperation, the Yenching Olympic Organizing Committee had no choice but to solicit theme songs from dozens of professional musicians such as Tan Dun, Bobbida, and Chen Shaoqi according to the requirements of the creative work of the opening ceremony, and "Me and You" was born in such an environment.

Lyrics by Chang Shilei and Ma Wen, composition by Chen Qigang, Chinese singer Liu Huan and British singer Sarah Brightman sung together.

It is said that Liu Huan and Sarah Brightman had less than a week to prepare for the song, and Liu Huan was nervous when he was told to sing the theme song at the opening ceremony, and the song was a big challenge for him.

He Xiao took out "Me and You" this time, and his mood was similar to that of Liu Huan's predecessors in the parallel world, not because he was afraid that the song would be smashed, but because the main pressure was because the whole stage was too big.

It was the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, representing the face of a country, witnessed by billions of people around the world, countless eyes staring, plus it was a live broadcast, in this environment, any singer will feel pressure in his heart.

"Xiao He, do you have to sing this song with two people?" Liao Yuqing asked suddenly, he noticed that some of the lyrics on the score were in English.

"Yes, this song is more suitable for male and female choruses. ”

He Xiao nodded truthfully, the original song was performed by Liu Huan and Sarah Brightman, if you sing alone, it is a little difficult to control, and that feeling is missing.

And the object of the chorus should preferably be a foreign friend, after all, the main thing about this song is that the earth is a big family, so there must be family members of other colors, so as to highlight the theme of "global village".

"You don't mind if I smoke and smoke, do you?"

Liu Haibo took out a cigarette, first asked everyone's opinions, and then lit it, and after taking a puff, he said slowly: "Then do you have a suitable chorus partner in your heart?"

"Not yet. He Xiao shook his head.

The main reason is that he doesn't know any foreign singers, and this thing can't be invited casually, after all, even the Olympic Committee of Yanjing doesn't have such great energy, and it's unrealistic to say that he likes an international singer who will come over as soon as he beckons.

"I have a good relationship with Smollet Betty, why don't you try?" Wang Shi interjected at this time.

"Okay, Lao Wang, do you still have a relationship with Smollet Betty?" Liao Yuqing looked surprised.

Smollet Betty is currently one of the hottest female pop singers in the UK, very popular in Europe and the United States, and has been nominated for three Grammys, and her strength is outstanding.

"Okay, you can contact us and try to get it done in these two days, otherwise it may be too late for the rehearsal. Liu Haibo immediately clapped his head.

The female star Wang Shi knows is famous enough to be qualified to attend their opening ceremony, of course, the main reason is that time is too tight now, and if you contact a foreign star with a bigger position, it may be too late.

The matter was finalized for the time being, and Liu Haibo and Han Qiang of the Olympic Committee did not stay too long after meeting He Xiao, and hurriedly went to the Bird's Nest Stadium to study the program arrangement of the opening ceremony over there.

He Xiao walked alone in the Olympic Village, thinking about how to sing the song "Me and You" at that time, after all, Wang Shi said that inviting Smollet Betty was just a proposal, and I don't know if it can be done.

If he really can't find anyone, He Xiao will either sing solo by himself and stand up against the banner of the opening ceremony alone, or he will take Zhang Ya to sing together, anyway, Zhang Ya can also speak English.

Thinking about it, He Xiao unconsciously came to the center of the Olympic Village, where more and more athletes could be seen exercising outdoors, both domestic and foreign.

"China will win and win glory for the country!"

"China will win and win glory for the country!"

A row of athletes in red short sleeves are running in the Olympic Village shouting slogans, and I don't know how many laps this is, sweating like rain on their faces, but their voices are still loud and powerful, and it makes people feel like their blood is boiling just by sounding like they are boiling.

He Xiao also had goosebumps all over his body, and he suddenly found that everyone was working silently for the motherland's Olympic Games to be held smoothly and achieve a good result.

And he, as the face of the Yanjing Olympics and the singer of the opening ceremony, is the top priority, and he should work harder than them.

The burden on his body suddenly increased many times, He Xiao did not continue to wander around, and after finally glancing at the athletic figures speeding on the field, he turned around and left the sports village.

That same evening.

He Wanrong Studio.

The employees have already left work, the whole warehouse is dark, only the lights in the rehearsal room are still on, and from time to time there will be the singing of He Xiao, over and over again, like a tireless machine.

He has to polish the whole song over and over again until it is impeccable.

It was late at night, He Xiao was still rehearsing, but he was not alone, on the bench indoors, Zhang Ya sat there, did not play with her mobile phone, did not do anything else, just watched him quietly and accompanied him.

Another rehearsal is over.

Zhang Ya stood up, picked up a bottle of mineral water from the table, stepped forward and handed it to He Xiao, then wiped his sweat for him, and said softly: "Do you want to continue?"

"Well, there's a place at the end that I haven't been able to handle well, and when I sing it again, we'll go home. He Xiao unscrewed and took a sip, moistened his somewhat dry throat, and then looked at Zhang Ya, who was already obviously tired in his eyes, and said a little distressed.

Zhang Ya shook her head and smiled lightly, "I'm fine, when you finish this ending, when will we leave again." ”

He Xiao was stunned for a moment, he looked at Zhang Ya's smiling face, and suddenly the tip of his nose was sour.

There was no superfluous and sensational nonsense, he just nodded heavily, and then proved himself with actions, and began to polish the whole song again.

Bass, treble, tail, ...... All the difficulties were overcome by him one by one.

At half past four in the morning, He Xiao finally finished work satisfactorily and returned home with Zhang Ya.

He's so tired.
