Chapter 268: Works Special Session (I)
"This is the spontaneous behavior of the singers, and it has nothing to do with our program team. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info" The screenwriter looked at Xiao Yao innocently and smiled, "We definitely won't do this on purpose, as for whether the singers themselves have discussed it in private, I don't know." ā
"I'll look for them!" Xiao Yao walked to the door of the room and said, "Haven't I been played to death by them?"
"Wait!" the screenwriter stopped Xiao Yao and said, "Why were they played to death? I think they are collectively supporting you! Besides, what can you do with them now? Everyone has rehearsed, can you still let them change songs? This is a breakout competition, not a joke!"
"What's going on?" Shen Man came over curiously, took the script in Xiao Yao's hand and glanced at it a few times, then looked at Xiao Yao with wide eyes and said, "Wow~ Eight of the other nine singers are singing your songs! Xiao Yao, you are too good!"
"What kind of eyes?" Xiao Yao looked at her and said, "Where are the eight? The song that Sister Xiaolan sang was written by me under the name of XY, and it is also my song! Plus my own, the ten songs are all mine, is this a special concert for my works?"
"It's all your songs?" Shen Man let out an "oh" and said strangely, "But what's wrong with this? Why do you look like you're going to make trouble? Didn't you tell everyone before that you could cover your songs on the show at will, and you didn't even have to say hello, did you forget?"
"I'll go, I really said it!" Xiao Yao said suddenly, "I guess it's that sentence that caused the trouble!"
"What's the trouble?" Shen Man said, "What a good thing, everyone sings your song to recognize you! Why do you look so angry and panicked?"
"But the ten songs in this episode of the show are all my songs, if this is broadcast, won't the comments explode?" Xiao Yao said, "At that time, some people will definitely say that this is deliberately arranged by the program team, asking other singers to cooperate with the publicity and hype me alone!"
"Did the program team make a deliberate arrangement? How many of the nine of them would listen to the program team like this?" Shen Man said, "Also, this kind of thing is not plagiarism, with your temperament, are you afraid of what others say?"
"Yes," Xiao Yao listened to Shen Man's words, and his mind seemed to turn a corner, "Just say it! The program team is not afraid, what do I have to be afraid of?"
Xiao Yao sat down again, took the script in Shen Man's hand and looked at it carefully. Then, Xiao Yao threw the script in his hand on the table, turned his head to the screenwriter next to him and said: "Today's ten performances, the time is relatively tight, and there is no need for any string words, right? You said that these are all my songs, you let me praise it, I'm embarrassed, you let me lose it, and I'm reluctant. ā
Xiao Yao thought that the screenwriter should at least ask Director Tao or something, but he didn't expect the screenwriter to immediately smile and nod and said, "Yes! Director Tao said, the host of this scene can play freely." ā
"Director Tao has already instructed you..."Xiao Yao smiled bitterly, "and said that you didn't mean it?"
"Of course it wasn't on purpose!" screenwriter Zhengse said, "In order to arrange rehearsals, singers have to send us the competition songs in advance." We just knew it a little bit earlier than you did!"
"Okay, you can do whatever you say!" Xiao Yao shook his head and sighed.
"Obviously, I agreed, you can say whatever you want!" the screenwriter laughed.
In the studio, the sound of the countdown sounded, and Xiao Yao, wearing a suit with purple and black feather accessories on the chest of a shirt, appeared on the stage.
"Hello everyone, welcome everyone..."Xiao Yao bowed to the audience and said the opening remarks.
Here's the usual time for the slogan. After saying the opening remarks, Xiao Yao directly entered the link of saying advertising words.
A slogan of more than 200 words was said in one breath, and as usual, it also received a lot of applause and screams.
"This is the last time I'll host on this show, so it's also the last time I'll say that. Others say that it is less than once to listen to it, but now it is after listening to it once, and it will be gone in the future. Xiao Yao said with a smile. According to the convention of the show, the final final will be hosted by the professional host of Shonan Satellite TV, whether Xiao Yao can break through successfully and enter the finals, this is his last guest host in this show.
"Then do it again!" shouted another spectator. Although Xiao Yao has said more than once on stage before that the advertising words are only said once per issue, considering the last time, there are still audiences who shout without giving up.
"I'm not coming!" Xiao Yao shook his head with a smile and said, "Today is the breakout competition, and there will be ten singers performing." You can hear ten songs in one night, and your ears are blessed enough, so don't care about advertising!"
"Let's talk about today's rules, ten singers take turns to perform, everyone chooses the three favorite singers to vote for the performance, and the top four singers will be qualified to advance to the finals, and compete for the final title of singer with the three starting singers who directly advance to the finals. Xiao Yao explained the rules of today's breakout competition, and pointed to the three people sitting in the first row of the audience, "Today, the three starting singers who directly advanced to the finals also came to our program site to "reconnoiter the enemy", please give applause to the three special audiences today. ā
On the electronic background wall behind the stage, the three starting singers, Hong Wei, Xiao Siqi and Liang Xueying, sat in the front row of the audience, and the audience immediately erupted in a burst of applause and cheers. All three of them also stood up from their seats, turned around and bowed to the audience behind them, and waved their hands, which also caused a scream from the audience.
"Well, these three are just like you today, just the audience. No, they don't even have the right to vote, so they're not as good as you. Xiao Yao smiled and waved his hand, "They are not today's protagonists, today's protagonists are me... and the back nine. Our ten breakout singers are the ones that everyone should pay attention to, so please welcome them casually, or please pay attention to the stage. ā
Xiao Yao deliberately took a big breath when he said "I", causing the audience to be stunned. When the whole paragraph was finished, there was laughter and applause in the audience, which also caused Hong Wei and Liang Xueying to raise their fists at him as if they were demonstrating together.
"Okay, okay, no more nonsense, there are ten performances in total today, and the time will be very long, so let's start as soon as possible. Xiao Yao smiled and raised one hand and made a one-handed downward gesture, "Next, I will introduce to you the competition song of the first singer to appear." ā
Hearing Xiao Yao say this, the audience also quieted down very cooperatively.
"Whether it is the following three starting singers who have advanced to the finals, or our ten breakout singers today, for our singers who participated in this show, it actually takes some courage to be able to step on this stage. Xiao Yao then introduced, "The first singer to appear below is called "Courage". Although he told the screenwriter that he would only report the name of the song, Xiao Yao felt that the introduction of the first song at the beginning was so simple and too dry, so he still added a sentence by himself.
"Is "Courage" Xiao Yao's "Courage"?"
"Could it be that Xiao Yao was the first to appear, and he is finally going to sing old songs? Didn't he say that he would always sing new songs?"
"Maybe it's some other singer singing his song?"
"How is it possible? Xiao Yao is standing here, fighting him in the ring with his songs?"
"Why is it impossible, didn't Liang Xueying do it before? ā
Hearing Xiao Yao announce the name of the song, many viewers in the audience immediately began to discuss in confusion.
The three starters in the front row of the audience and the eight breakout singers in the hall and room in the lounge all showed surprised expressions.
"Yes, it's a warm love song. Yes, it's the one you think it is. Xiao Yao looked at the expressions of the audience, nodded to himself, and said, "Next, please welcome the first competing singer to the stage with warm applause!" With that, Xiao Yao walked directly down from the front of the stage.
The lights in the passage behind the stage turned on, and a figure appeared in the passage with a backlight, slowly walking out of the stage.
"Lan Ruixi, I'll go, there are really singers singing other singers' songs?"
"And Xiao Yao is still the host, standing under the stage, this is really singing in front of the original singer! I just don't know if Xiao Yao feels embarrassed or proud when he stands there and listens!"
Lan Ruixi, who was the first to appear, walked to the light in front of the stage, and the applause of the welcoming singer rang out from the audience, and there was also a lot of discussion again.
"Finally made this decision, I don't care what others say, as long as you are the same sure~"
After the preparations on the stage were completed, Lan Ruixi signaled to Liu Tong, the band's conductor on the side of the stage, and the violin prelude in the band sounded. A few seconds later, Lan Ruixi opened her mouth and sang, and sure enough, it was the song "Courage" that Xiao Yao had performed on the stage of "The Voice" and later included in his first original album.
The breakout match is a decisive victory, and it is a ten-in-four game, no one believes that at this time, Xiao Yao will go to help Lan Ruixi, who only appeared once in the show and will not have much affection with him, to make arrangements, so many viewers subconsciously looked at Xiao Yao who was standing in the open space in front of the stage.
As the host, Xiao Yao stood in front of the side of the stage, so many viewers could also see some of Xiao Yao's expressions. At this time, Xiao Yao did not have embarrassment or smugness on his face, but watched Lan Ruixi's performance on the stage with an unusually serious expression.
Xiao Yao is indeed listening very seriously at the moment, because he has already heard that Lan Ruixi's performance has obviously put a lot of thought into it, and it is not just a gimmick to sing Xiao Yao's works.
Lan Ruixi not only raised the tone on the basis of Xiao Yao's original version, making the whole song more suitable for female singing, but also richer in terms of arrangement and soundtrack than Xiao Yao's live version of "The Voice". After all, in terms of the level of singers performing on the stage, "The Voice" cannot be compared with "Singer", and the configuration resources of the live band are also somewhat different. At the beginning, in order to highlight Sun Tingting, Xiao Yao only arranged one violinist in the soundtrack, but Lan Ruixi not only increased the number of violinists to six, but also added cello and brass instruments, making the whole song more atmospheric.
In this way, the live appeal of the whole song is much stronger than Xiao Yao's original live version. Not to mention that this song was originally a very warm love song, so that the change will not change the artistic conception and taste of the original song, just from this aspect of the competition, at least it makes this song more suitable for the feeling of live competition.
"Thank you, Lady Landree, for your wonderful performance. After Lan Ruixi left the stage amid everyone's applause and cheers, Xiao Yao covered his face and returned to the stage and said, "Don't ask me why I cover my face. I will only say that I have a toothache, and I will not tell everyone that I think my original singer is not sung well, this is a slap in the face on the spot!"
"Haha~" The audience who was strange why Xiao Yao covered his face was guided by his first half of the sentence to Lan Ruixi, who was leaving the studio through the passage in front of the stage, and then heard Xiao Yao come to this sentence, and immediately laughed again.
"No, no~" Lan Ruixi, who was still walking on the exit passage at this time, and did not leave the studio, hurriedly turned around and waved his hand to Xiao Yao on the stage.
"Okay," after laughing, Xiao Yao put down the hand covering his face and said with a serious expression, "Let me introduce to you the competition song of the second competing singer today." ā
"The following song, the song is called "Flower Field Wrong"! Please applaud and invite the next competing singer to appear!" Xiao Yao finished speaking, and immediately ran off the stage quickly.
"What?!" This time, all the audience and the singers in the lounge were even more surprised, even Lan Ruixi, who had just walked out of the studio and heard Xiao Yao's voice from the exit door of the studio that had not yet been closed, also stopped, stood with a surprised face, and turned to look at the slowly closing exit door of the studio.
"Another singer singing his song in front of Xiao Yao?!" Xiao Yao has already stood under the stage, so the next competing singer will definitely not be Xiao Yao, so a big exclamation mark appeared in everyone's hearts!
Seeing the smiling Lin Qingyuan appear on the stage, the audience let out another burst of cheers and screams. Of course, how much of this is because of the reappearance of Lin Qingyuan, the singer who has been away from the show for the longest time, and how much is because of the song he chose, it is unknown.
Lin Qingyuan didn't know how to play erhu, but he invited a well-known erhu veteran artist from Baodao to come to the scene, and sat on the stage to help him accompany. When the familiar erhu sound sounded, many viewers at the scene subconsciously looked at Xiao Yao again.
