"Mr. Xu, the competition has been going on for a while. Xu Ziming had just entered the arena, and a staff member saw it and hurriedly greeted him.

The Rookie Singing Contest is a music competition jointly organized by TVB and Huaxing Records. When Xu Ziming did not take a stake in TVB, he rarely knew that he attended the first Hong Kong Rookie Singing Contest held by TVB today as a shareholder of TVB. Shaw Yifu's request before, Xu Ziming finally accepted it.

Last year, the rookie singing contest had already begun, and this year it was the qualifier, that is, the final selection of the champion and runner-up.

"Hmm", after Xu Ziming responded, the staff led the way, and directly forgot the nearest judge seat on the stage, there was just a vacant seat missing on the far right, there was no doubt that he was there, it should be his.

The audience at the competition site was not very large, after all, it was held indoors, not outdoors, so there were less than a few hundred people.

As soon as Xu Ziming sat down, Huang Zhan turned his eyes when he heard the bump sound, and turned his head to Xu Ziming on the side: "I thought you wouldn't come, this first singer is already halfway through singing." ”

Xu Ziming smiled bitterly: "I didn't ask clearly before, and there were many detours halfway, but I didn't arrive until now." ”

Huang Zhan nodded to show understanding, this is the strength of human beings.

The two had a good relationship, and they began to talk habitually like friends they hadn't seen for many years. The first singer finished singing the song quickly, and at this time, Gu Jiahui on the side was a little unslow, and said in a low voice: "Listen carefully, you will have to review it later, and you have to do something in your job." ”

This sentence is not biased, lukewarm, Huang Zhan disagreed, and said with a smile: "I can judge the quality of the singer's singing songs just by listening to the first half, and it doesn't matter if I listen to the later ones or not." Huang Zhan's self-confidence is not his arrogance, but his talent in lyrics is extraordinary, otherwise how could he be crowned with the title of the four great talents of Xiangjiang.

Xu Ziming did have a lot of touches in his heart, and his words were rather blunt, but he could be very serious on this occasion. Immediately asked in a low voice, "Who is that?" At the same time, he pointed to Gu Jiahui, who had just spoken.

Huang Zhan understood, and then whispered: "His name is Gu Jiahui, and he is good at songwriting like me, and he is a very powerful character."

Gu Jiahui in Huang Zhan's mouth is indeed the creator of the famous lyrics in the Hong Kong music scene, and most of TVB's music competitions are indispensable for him to join.

In 1977, he collaborated with Huang Zhan for the first time in Cantonese songs, and composed the theme song of the same name for the TV series "Home Change". In 1980, Koo Ka Fai and Huang Zhan collaborated on the song of the same name for the TV series "Shanghai Tang" and attracted widespread attention, which was also Koo Ka Fai's first Chinese minor pop song. During this period, Gu Jiahui's unique style of music, coupled with Huang Zhan's lyrics written in Cantonese but full of traditional Chinese colors, made the "Hui Huang" combination.

Gu Jiahui, this name Xu Ziming is very familiar to hear, because many classic Cantonese songs are arranged by him.

On stage, after the first singer finished singing, a group of people quickly began to score. However, the final result was not excellent.

In the follow-up ones, there are many handsome men like Wen Zhaolun who can't sing badly, and at the same time his appearance is very exciting. But Huang Zhan shook his head, looking very unhappy, maybe more because of his excessive pursuit of art.

"Next up is our No. 10 contestant, Anita Mui, who will sing "The Season of the Wind" for everyone. ”

The hostess was wearing a white veil, and after she finished speaking with the microphone in her hand, she quickly walked down the stage and vacated the big stage for Anita Mui, who was walking on the stage.

Huang Zhan's face was full of surprise when he heard "The Season of the Wind", and he was as surprised as many audience guests in the audience.

"The Season of the Wind" is a record released by Xu Xiaofeng last year, which once caused a lot of sensation in the Hong Kong music scene, and Alan Tam just sang a cover song "The Season of the Wind" at the Hung Hom Stadium last year, which caused the fans of the two superstars to scold each other. It wasn't until Li's TV station specially organized a program to bring the two major singers together and sing a song together, that the turmoil gradually subsided.

How could Xu Ziming not know about this matter, what happened to him last year Unless he has a particularly poor memory, he will not remember this incident.

Anita Mui's dress was helped by the backstage staff, and the shiny women's low-heeled boots on her feet were particularly eye-catching. I saw her pick up the microphone and naturally say "the season of the wind" in Cantonese.

With the music on the stage, she stepped on the stage at the age of four and a half, and Anita Mui, who has performed on stage with her sister at the Hong Kong Liyuan Playground for many years, stepped on the rhythm of the music and began to sing with her deep magnetic voice and calm atmosphere.

"The cold wind blows gently to the ......"

“............”

Xu Ziming knew that Anita Mui was known as Hong Kong's daughter, but Anita Mui became famous in one fell swoop with the 82 Rookie Singing Contest and debuted in the entertainment industry, which he didn't know, and he didn't know that in 1981, the first Hong Kong Rookie Singing Contest (now known as the Global Chinese Rookie Singing Contest) kicked off, Mui Aifang signed up for herself and her sister, but in the end, only Anita Mui advanced to the finals, and her sister pinned all her hopes on her. Anita Mui recalled that at that time, she just wanted to strive for a good score and not disappoint her sister.

The reason why Xu Ziming is here today is nothing more than an entertainment for the shareholders of wireless, but it is this entertainment that makes him so fortunate to be able to witness the scene of Anita Mui singing.

Anita Mui's song on the stage has not yet been sung, but many people in the jury seat are constantly applauding.

Gu Jiahui, who had rarely spoken before, began to murmur to the other judges sitting next to him: "This little girl's singing skills are very good, her voice is low and steady, and the strength of the whole song is controlled very well." ”

The other judges were all whispering, but Xu Ziming listened to the beautiful woman on the stage singing very carefully, squinting his eyes, leaning on the seat, and gently tapping his fingers back and forth on his thighs very regularly.

Huang Zhan and Gu Jiahui chatted hotly, but when they found Xu Ziming's strange performance, they patted Xu Ziming's shoulder, then touched their noses and asked with a smile: "Who is better than what she sings compared to what you sing?"

Huang Zhan's words have some things, Xu Ziming originally sang "The Season of the Wind", and now Anita Mui is also singing "The Season of the Wind", so it is natural to like to compare the two.

"Of course Miss Mei sings well" Xu Ziming Xiangdong didn't want to say directly, Anita Mui is a unique figure in the Hong Kong film industry in the future, and her singing skills are several levels higher than Xu Ziming's half-hung person.

Huang Zhan was confused: "You are not optimistic about yourself, I think you sing very well." ”

Xu Ziming shook his head and said with a wry smile: "I know whether it's good or not, but Uncle Zhan's willingness to encourage me does make me feel a lot more comfortable." ”

At this time, Anita Mui had already finished singing.

"Thank you", Anita Mui bowed deeply to the people at the front desk very politely.

"Miss Mei, you sing very well," Huang Zhan gave her a full score.

Gu Jiahui deducted one point on the grounds that there was no perfect score in art, "Miss Mei, the road of music is slowly getting farther away, I hope you can continue to work hard in the future." ”

Although Gu Jiahui did not give a full score, this sentence really benefited Anita Mui.

After the other judges showed their scores one after another, it was the turn of Xu Ziming, the youngest and less well-known person in the Hong Kong music scene, to score the scores.

"The score given by Mr. Xu is also a perfect score!"

The hostess saw that Xu Ziming and Huang Zhan gave the same score as full marks, and couldn't help but exclaim.

There were also people present who were not familiar with Xu Ziming, but they were just as surprised that the two judges gave full marks.

"Mr. Xu, can you explain why you are also giving full marks?" asked the host with a surprised expression while holding the microphone.

"Miss Mei sings very well" Xu Ziming didn't know how to describe it, and he only had these words in his head. Interesting facts about her skills

Xu Ziming's simple "singing is very good" made Anita Mui on stage very excited. Anita Mui began to sing on stage when she was very young, and in her childhood, compared to her peers, she went not to school, but to dance halls.

She once recalled: "In the past, artists were not respected, and they were called 'singers' and 'actors'. In their eyes, the 'singer' is an unserious industry, so they prevent my classmates from interacting with me, watching other children play together, I will always be alone, and I feel very lonely. ”

At this time, the 19-year-old Anita Mui sang steadily, but her every move was still like a young girl, and in the face of the exclamations from the audience, the greenness of her face was fully seen by Xu Ziming in the audience.

Xu Ziming's comments may not be able to achieve a sharp effect compared to Huang Zhan, Gu Jiahui and other music predators, but Xu Ziming's appreciation, maybe Xu Ziming's Mingjia Film Company will directly sign Anita Mui, so Anita Mui is definitely full of harvest in this competition.

The competition is still ongoing, and Anita Mui's wonderful performance has undoubtedly increased the pressure on other singers, who have vomited their atmosphere, hoping that their singing voice can not lose hope.

After Anita Mui came down from the stage, she retreated to the backstage, and some singers before her were also waiting backstage, waiting for the final end of the competition and the announcement of the champion.

Anita Mui didn't remove her makeup, and took the water handed over by her sister Mei Aifang, Mei Aifang asked excitedly: "Sister, you are much better than me, after I heard you finish singing, the audience at the scene was amazed, and even that Xu Ziming gave you full marks." ”

Mei Aifang took Anita Mui's little hand and led him to sit down in the empty seat.

Anita Mui calmed her abdomen, her face was a little flushed, and she was happy, but she still said softly: "Sister, no matter what the result is, I will do my best." Everyone else is doing very well, too. Don't blame yourself either. ”

The two sisters sat together hand in hand and chatted, Mei Aifang looked at her sister with relief, and was very happy that this sister did not disappoint her.
