Chapter 64: You at the Table

"You don't want to hear it, but the audience said it. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Du Cheng squeezed his eyes and said with a smile, "Unlike you, the people on our stage really want to hear it." At the end, Du Cheng deliberately accentuated his tone, saying that they wanted to hear what the audience said to Xiao Yao, but also that they also wanted to hear Xiao Yao sing live.

"But I didn't have a soundtrack. Xiao Yao continued to spread his hands.

"A cappella singing!" shouted an audience member.

"I think some people in the audience must have seen the video of you singing a cappella when the Shen Opera Art Examination was released. Wan Minjia said.

"If you really don't want to sing, then give us another poem," Du Cheng suggested, "just like you did at the Poetry Conference." ”

Xiao Yao is not the first to be asked to show his talent in the show, in the previous show, if you meet some contestants with good talents, there will also be a link for them to show, not a new process specially for Xiao Yao. When encountering Xiao Yao, a contestant who obviously has talent to show, the program team naturally doesn't want to let it go easily. If you can't sing, then you can do something else, just like the poem that Xiao Yao read at the "Poetry Conference" before, its excitement is definitely no less than singing.

Reading poems at the "Poetry Conference" is a timely occasion, and reciting poems in this program is not necessary. Xiao Yao's most well-known identity is still a singer, and the audience also asks for singing, so Xiao Yao, who knew that the show had a contestant's talent link, decided to sing.

"Then I'll sing better. Xiao Yao said.

"Good. Du Cheng said with a smile, "But it doesn't have to be a cappella." Although we are not a music program, we still have a few simple musical instruments. We've got you an electronic keyboard and a guitar, why don't you play and sing to yourself?"

"It seems that you have been prepared for a long time," Xiao Yao smiled, "then guitar." ”

"No problem. Du Cheng waved his hand happily, and the staff on the side immediately sent a log guitar. Du Cheng took the guitar from the staff and handed it to Xiao Yao personally, and asked, "Do you need to help you move a chair up?"

"No, just standing. Xiao Yao looked at the strap on the guitar, directly carried the guitar to his body, and said with a smile, "Listening to my fans' evaluations, I am the most handsome when I sing with a guitar on my back." ”

"Yes~" the audience also shouted.

At this time, Wan Minjia took over the two hand-held microphones from the staff, and also walked over and said, "Because we can't connect the guitar and the stereo on the spot, and considering that you are a professional singer, the effect of using a microphone is much better than a headset, so temporarily use these two microphones to amplify the sound, and the two of us will hold it up for you and make your microphone stand." With that, she handed a microphone to Du Cheng, and the two stood beside Xiao Yao one on the left and one on the right.

"Thank you. Xiao Yao bowed slightly, and said with a smile, "I'm flattered to ask my brother and sister-in-law to make me a human microphone stand." Most of the contestants in this show are selected from ordinary audiences, and the hosting style of the two in this show is also very civilian, so most of the contestants affectionately call the two of them brother and sister-in-law.

"It's nothing, our program team has never had a professional singer like you, and we don't have a special microphone stand. Du Cheng waved his hand.

"What song are you singing to everyone?" Wan Minjia asked with a smile, "Is it still the old rule?"

"Old rules?" Xiao Yao was slightly puzzled.

"It is rumored that every time Xiao Yao performs and sings in public, it is an original new song. Du Cheng explained, "So are you also singing us an original new song today?"

"Yes. Xiao Yao smiled and nodded. After Du Cheng's reminder, Xiao Yao also remembered his own law, which was naturally not difficult for him at all, and he had no intention of breaking his special habit.

"What are you singing?" Xiao Yao looked at the audience, and then looked around at several other contestants on the stage, "Today is the champion special, whether it is a previous or a new year, we have all experienced the middle school years, and we have or are about to enter our own college years." I suddenly thought of the difference between my middle school and college students' lives, that is, the classrooms where middle school students attend classes are fixed and have their own classmates, but when we enter the university, we don't have the so-called classmates at the same table. Then I will sing a song "You at the Same Table" to everyone, and use this campus ballad to commemorate our middle school days. ”

"Sure enough, it's a new song. Du Cheng nodded with a smile, "And it is also very appropriate to sing campus folk songs in today's champion special session." Next, I will invite Xiao Yao to bring you a song "You at the Same Table"!"

Xiao Yao plucked the strings of the guitar in turn and tried the sound in a warm applause at the scene, and found that the acoustic guitar on his body had been tuned, so he put the guitar in a comfortable position, exhaled gently, and was ready to start.

Seeing Xiao Yao's tuning action, the audience quickly quieted down and waited for Xiao Yao's performance.

After the scene quieted down, Xiao Yao began to pluck the strings on the guitar, and a melodious melody sounded. Because it is a pure guitar sound without adding the soundtrack of other instruments such as violin, this melody is a little less melancholy and a little more fresh.

"Will you remember tomorrow, the diary you wrote yesterday, and whether you will still remember tomorrow, you used to cry the most~

The teachers can't remember you anymore, and you can't guess the problem, I also happened to flip through the photos before I remembered you at the same table."

After the prelude, Xiao Yao's slightly low and melancholy singing voice sounded, although it was a slightly simple melody and simple lyrics, but as soon as these few lines of singing came out, everyone seemed to unconsciously begin to recall the "you at the same table" in their middle school days.

"Who married the sentimental you, who read your diary, who tied up your long hair, who made you a wedding dress?"

When the song came to the chorus, the audience and other contestants on the stage had already begun to clap their hands gently along with Xiao Yao's singing and beat him.

"You used to be very careful and asked me to borrow half an eraser, and you also inadvertently mentioned that you like to be with me.

At that time, the sky was always very blue, the days were always too slow, and you always said that graduation was far away, and in the blink of an eye, they went their separate ways."

The second main song has more and more detailed scene descriptions, and most of these are also scenes that everyone has experienced in middle school, in Xiao Yao's lyrical and soft singing, people who listen to Xiao Yao's singer seem to feel that more memories come to their minds: the 38th line in the middle of the desk that was finally determined after countless debates, a small note full of dialogues, and the hand that deliberately blocked the test paper during the test... Slowly, everyone listened more and more fascinated.

"Who met you who was sentimental, who comforted you who loved to cry, who read the letter I wrote to you, who threw it in the wind?"

In the last sentence of the second chorus, Xiao Yao's mood when singing has changed a little, and the volume has also increased a little. Immediately afterwards, a relatively fast fingerstyle melody also appeared in the interlude of this section, which made the audience slightly amazed by Xiao Yao's guitar playing skills, and at the same time, the nostalgia for the middle school days became more and more uncontrollable.

"Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh At the end of the song, there are no lyrics in Xiao Yao's singing, but just a series of simple "la" words to end the whole song. The audience shook their heads and clapped their hands to listen to Xiao Yao's last lyricsless singing, and they were completely moved by his song.

"Thank you!" plucked the last string lightly, and the whole song was over, Xiao Yao bowed slightly to the audience and the other contestants on the stage who clapped their hands.

"Okay!" The applause turned into warm applause, accompanied by the applause of some audiences, while some audience members quietly wiped the corners of their eyes.

"It's so good!" Wan Minjia sighed softly with some excitement, "I play the piano well, sing well, of course, I think the most powerful thing about Xiao Yao is that this song is really well written." I don't know how these college students on stage or the contestants who are about to become college students feel, anyway, when I was in my thirties, I listened to Xiao Yao's song, and I was suddenly brought back to the warm and sweet memories of my student days. ”

"I remember my high school teacher once told us," Du Cheng said, "Don't look at how tired and hard you are now, but when you really grow up, you will find that what you miss the most is high school life." At the time, I was quite unimpressed, but now that I think about it, I realize that it is. After listening to Xiao Yao's song, my nostalgia is even stronger. ”

"I don't know if Brother Cheng remembered his table mates in high school, did he also ask in his heart who tied up her long hair and who made her wedding dress?" Xiao Yao asked Du Chengdao with a deliberate smile.

Xiao Yao asked, Wan Minjia also stared at Du Cheng with a pair of big eyes, full of curiosity.

"Uh..." Du Cheng was stunned by Xiao Yao's question, saw his wife's eyes, and quickly replied, "No, my table mates in middle school were all boys, and there was no long hair to coil up." ”

"Huh~" The audience at the scene immediately let out a disdainful boo.

"Don't believe it!" Wan Minjia also said with a smile.

"Really!" Du Cheng swore an oath, "At that time, the teachers were strict against early love, and our class was full of boys and boys at the same table, and girls and girls at the same table. ”

"Well, I believe you. Wan Minjia let go of her husband and turned to look at Xiao Yaodao, "Are your high school table mates male or female?"

"Oh~" The audience let out a cry of gossip.

"It's a boy. Xiao Yao said generously, "Our class arranges seats once a year, and they all take turns to choose their own seats according to the order of the final exam results of the previous semester from top to bottom. My grades have always been very early, and I went into the classroom early to choose a seat, and most of them were chosen by people to be my tablemate, and I basically never chose a tablemate myself. Although the boys and girls in middle school are just beginning to fall in love, most of them are still relatively shy, so most of our classes are also of the same sex and at the same table. ”

"I don't think you're asking the right question, Minjia. Du Cheng began to fight back, "Xiao Yao's song is obviously reminiscing about nostalgia for his former tablemates, so you shouldn't ask him about his high school tablemates, but about his junior high school tablemates." Xiao Yao: Are your junior high school tablemates male or female?"

"At first, I was a boy for more than a month, and then I was a girl. Xiao Yao replied.

"Could it be that you wrote this song for your junior high school tablemate?" Wan Minjia gossiped, "I really want to know who she is." ”

"Well, not really. Xiao Yao's heart began to sweat, this dug a hole for himself.

"This song is not actually written by me. Xiao Yao began to make up a story to turn around, "This is what I wrote after listening to the story of a classmate in my class who had a crush on a girl at the same table. Even though we are now graduating, I can't name his classmates out of respect for their privacy. You don't have to be in love to write a sweet love song, and you don't have to be in love to write a lovelorn song. What you hear, what you see, even what you read in a book, you can write a song if you feel it and feel it. ”

"Well, let's stop asking. Wan Minjia said with a smile.

"Thank you again Xiao Yao for bringing us this song that touched us and reminded us of our youthful years as students. Du Cheng took the guitar that Xiao Yao took off, handed it back to the staff on the side of the stage, and turned back to the normal flow of the show, "Next, we will invite the challenger of this episode." ”
