Chapter Ninety-Eight: Eccentricity
"Wow~" I saw Xiao Yao and Chen Yuhan walking out of the backstage passage hand in hand. The audience at the scene www.biquge.info pen "Fun" suddenly let out a burst of cheers.
Because the last pair to appear tonight is not only the youngest pair in this season's show, but also the most eye-catching pair in this stage of the competition.
In order to match the songs performed, the two can be regarded as dressed up. Xiao Yao was dressed in a well-cut black suit that showed off his figure, and a black shirt without a tie and bow tie was loosened with the top button, which looked formal and not dull at the same time. Chen Yuhan is also dressed in a semi-formal dress, wearing a dark blue V-neck dress, earrings and necklaces with the same blue drop-shaped pendant on her earlobes and neck, and a few strands of her hair hanging down on her sideburns, which is also elegant and playful and lively at her age.
The two of them are good looking, good height, and they each wore gorgeous clothes that set off their figures, and they appeared hand in hand, which naturally attracted bursts of cheers from the audience. Even Yi Kun couldn't help but say, "It's so beautiful." No wonder Xiao Yao is going to Sister Na's team!"
And the audience also whispered: "Although I know that Xiao Yao has a girlfriend, but watching the two of them walk out like this, I feel that these two people are really a good match." ”
"How do you know that Xiao Yao has a girlfriend? During the blind audition, the beautiful woman in the group of relatives and friends said that she wanted to chase Xiao Yao, and it was not certain whether she could chase after him. Didn't Xiao Yao say that he chose Shen Na because there were many beauties in Shen Na's team? Maybe Xiao Yao came for this Chen Yuhan, didn't he say that the female junior hugged the gold brick, Xiao Yao was seventeen, Chen Yuhan was twenty, and she was just three years older. ”
Xiao Yao led Chen Yuhan to the center of the stage, bowed to the instructor and the audience with her, left Chen Yuhan in the center of the stage, and sat down on the piano on the side.
Seeing Xiao Yao sit down and adjust the position of the microphone in front of him, his hands gently resting on the keys of the piano, Chen Nan also announced loudly: "The last chorus of Shen Na's mentor selection competition will start now." ”
Chen Nan's voice fell, the light in the studio dimmed, and the two white spotlights above hit Chen Yuhan and Xiao Yao on the stage, and the audience also consciously quieted down. In a quiet setting, an elegant piano with a melancholy melody sounds. With Xiao Yao's fingers dancing on the piano keys, Chen Yuhan also raised the microphone in his hand to his mouth and began to sing.
"It's dark outside the window, and another night without you is coming..."
Chen Yuhan sang two sentences, and Xiao Yao on the stage and several mentors on the mentor seat couldn't help frowning, because from the two sentences that Chen Yuhan sang, everyone could hear that her voice was a little dry, and her throat was obviously tight.
Not only Xiao Yao and several mentors, but Chen Yuhan, who heard his own voice in the ear, was also startled by his own voice. After singing two sentences by inertia, Chen Yuhan suddenly felt a blank space in his mind for a moment. Then, she realized that she had forgotten the words.
Shen Na changed her solo song into a two-chorus version, and also made some changes in the arrangement, in order to match the stage effect of the two's performance, in the first section of the main song, the soundtrack is only Xiao Yao's piano on the stage. This arrangement was originally intended to better show Chen Yuhan's vocal characteristics at the beginning of the song, but now in this case, it just gave Xiao Yao the opportunity to save her.
Xiao Yao, who had already heard Chen Yuhan's poor state in the first two sentences, deliberately slowed down a little when playing, and when he pressed the first note of the fifth sentence but hadn't heard Chen Yuhan's voice, he immediately opened his mouth to pick up the song.
"How I miss it, you once looked at me like that..."Xiao Yao picked up the fifth sentence while playing, and when singing the last "Look at me", Xiao Yao deliberately raised the key on the basis of the original key. Because Xiao Yao's singing and playing are synchronized with the rising key, although it sounds a little abrupt, it does not make the whole song seem too incongruous, making everyone feel that this is just a more distinctive change after the song is rearranged.
A song has been practiced for more than a week, and although Chen Yuhan forgot the words, she was still very impressed by the tune of the whole song, so she immediately heard Xiao Yao's sentence The difference from the original rehearsal. Then she reacted, this sentence was supposed to be sung by herself, but she forgot the words, Xiao Yao actually picked it up so perfectly? What should I do later? He sings or I sing? At this time, Chen Yuhan had completely forgotten his nervousness, and quickly turned to look at Xiao Yao.
Since Xiao Yao took over the song, it was naturally impossible to end it with just one sentence, in that case, anyone could see that this was not a prior arrangement, so he could only continue to sing the following four sentences. And while he sang and played, his eyes were always staring at Chen Yuhan.
After singing the four sentences, Xiao Yao smiled at Chen Yuhan and nodded slightly. Chen Yuhan immediately understood, and immediately opened his mouth to take over the singing of the song from Xiao Yao's hand. Then Chen Yuhan found that Xiao Yao's mouth did not close, but continued to open and close, looking at his mouth shape, he continued to sing the song behind silently.
"Is this for fear that I will forget the words again, so make me an artificial teleprompter?" Chen Yuhan suddenly made up his mind. He no longer turned around to face the audience and tutors, but took two steps towards Xiao Yao, came to the piano where Xiao Yao was playing, held the piano in one hand and the microphone in the other, and just watched Xiao Yao sing.
As Xiao Yao said before taking the stage, Chen Yuhan, who looked at Xiao Yao, was indeed no longer as nervous as facing the audience and mentors, and the artificial teleprompter of Xiao Yao in front of her saved her worries, and the addition of the live band after the start of the first chorus, the soundtrack of the whole song was enriched and the music rendering power was greatly enhanced, and she could also begin to focus all her attention on the play of the voice.
As a result, her singing began to get better and better, and the whole person began to gradually immerse herself in this song. So, her expression when singing and the emotions expressed in her voice also perfectly matched this song. The only problem is that she is facing Xiao Yao at this time, not the audience and mentors, which is different from Shen Na's arrangement at the beginning, but for Chen Yuhan now, she can't care about it at the moment.
Fortunately, there are many cameras on the recording site, and there is no shortage of rocker arms. A crane arm with a camera stretched out to the side of the stage and aimed at the two people at the piano, and the big screen on the scene also cut to the close-up shot of the two people looking at each other intently while singing.
Because Xiao Yao almost seamlessly connected to Chen Yuhan's singing, except for Shen Na and Shazhou, who knew the song segmentation arrangement in advance, everyone at the scene, including the other three mentors, did not see Chen Yuhan's forgetting words, so when everyone saw Chen Yuhan singing on the big screen, Xiao Yao sang with Chen Yuhan silently, and everyone didn't feel anything wrong. Because when the smart Chen Yuhan sang in Xiao Yao, his mouth also did not stop, and he was lip-syncing with him in the same way.
The performance of the two shows that the relationship between the two is particularly close, as if they don't want to miss each other's paragraphs. Coupled with the fact that after Chen Yuhan walked to the piano, the two looked at each other throughout the whole process, and they looked at each other for a moment, and everyone seemed to feel that they heard some different feelings from their singing.
At the end of the song, under the backdrop of Xiao Yao's solid and stable baritone, Chen Yuhan also perfectly soared out a gorgeous high note, giving the whole song a very beautiful ending.
In the cheers and applause of the audience, the two people who finally closed their eyes and were immersed in the mood of the song just now slowed down for a few seconds before they opened their eyes again. Xiao Yao stood up and took off the microphone on the microphone stand in front of him, took it in his hand, took Chen Yuhan's hand that took the initiative to reach out this time, and the two walked back to the middle of the stage together.
"Thank you both for your wonderful singing. Chen Nan praised and walked on the stage again. After getting on the stage, Chen Nan couldn't help but glance at the hands held by the two, and teased: "Among all the students' singing, this is probably the group with the most emotional performance I have seen when singing." It is also the group that interacts most frequently and naturally with the two students as a pair of competitors. ”
Hearing Chen Nan's ridicule, Chen Yuhan let go of Xiao Yao's hand with a slight flush on his face, and said a little embarrassed: "Actually, Xiao Yao knows that I am not used to wearing high heels, and I am a little nervous on stage today, she is afraid that I will fall on stage, so she will hold me like this." ”
Hearing Chen Yuhan's explanation, the scene immediately erupted in laughter.
Chen Nan also laughed with the audience. But soon, he smiled, looked at the mentor seat and said, "Let's ask a few tutors to comment on the performance of these two just now." Teacher Yu Qing. ”
"Before I start commenting, I want to complain!" Yu Qing said with a disgruntled face.
"Oh, Mentor Yu Qing, may I ask if you have any grievances and what do you want to complain about?" Chen Nan said strangely.
"As far as the two of them just performed, the piano is okay, but the clothes on the two of them... Why don't the students in our group have such beautiful and gorgeous performance costumes as the two of them? The program team is looking at Sister Na as the only female tutor, so is she eccentric?" Yu Qing pointed to the gorgeous costumes of Xiao Yao and Chen Yuhan on the stage.
"Then you've wronged us. Chen Nan said with a smile, "I can reply to you now with this question, the two of them are not provided by our program team." ”
"That's Sister Na," Yu Qing turned to Shen Na again, "Then I'm going to say something for your teammates, Sister Na, you are biased, why are the two of them looking so much better than the other members of your team?"
"You're sowing discord. Shen Na smiled and pointed at Yu Qingdao, "But I can tell you, it's useless! The costumes for the two of them in this performance were taken out by Xiao Yao himself, and even the entire overall appearance of the two of them was designed by Xiao Yao. Don't you know that people are also fashion photographers? Making two sets of clothes and designing two looks is not a problem for people at all. ”
"I see. Yu Qing was stunned, and then smiled, "Since this is the case, then it is a good choice." Chen Yuhan stays, Xiao Yao doesn't have to leave if he is eliminated, you can keep him and choose clothes and design styles for the students in your team in the later competitions. ”
"Hey, Teacher Yu Qing, please give Teacher Shen Na a suggestion seriously. Chen Nan interjected helplessly.
"That's what I'm serious about. Yu Qing spread his hands and said, "The two of them performed very well in singing just now, although Chen Yuhan's first two sentences were a little mistaken, but the performance behind them was wonderful." Xiao Yao is very stable from beginning to end, although there are no mistakes, but when it comes to brilliant, I think it is not as good as Chen Yuhan. I don't know what to choose, so I'll choose from other aspects. (To be continued.) )
