Chapter 83: The Colors of the Country
The MV shooting of "Must Be Forever" ended, the recording of "Under the Broken Wings" was completed, and everyone returned to the normal trajectory of life.
According to the habit, Liu Jingxin woke up early in the morning and ran to the park to exercise and practice his voice.
"Xiao Liu, why haven't I seen you these days?" In the small pavilion on the artificial hills of the park, Uncle Gao greeted Liu Jingxin, who had just finished running.
"I'm busy with something, and I don't care about getting up early and getting up late. Liu Jingxin replied with a smile, then put the thermos cup on the stone table, and began to practice his voice with the two uncles as usual.
"Ahhh......h
"Ahhh......h
After such a long time of practicing their voices together, Liu Jingxin has formed a certain tacit understanding with the two masters, and after each voice practice, he will definitely sit down around the stone table and chat.
Usually Uncle Yu is more talkative than Uncle Gao, but today Uncle Yu seems to have something on his mind, not only does he not talk much, but he also sighs from time to time at that time.
"Uncle Yu, what's wrong?" asked Liu Jingxin.
Uncle Yu didn't speak, and Uncle Gao explained on the side: "He's worried now." His granddaughter's school said it was going to hold a parent-child party, so that every family would put on a show. Lao Yu was busy with the work of his son and daughter-in-law, so he asked Lao Yu to rehearse the show with his granddaughter. ”
Liu Jingxin said: "This is very good. ”
Uncle Gao shook his head and said: "What's good, Lao Yu likes Peking Opera, and his granddaughter likes pop songs, this doesn't match at all, how can we put on a show together?"
Liu Jingxin nodded, almost forgetting about this stubble. Their grandfather and grandson also quarreled because of their different preferences, and last time they worried Uncle Yu so much, but in a daze, Liu Jingxin took over a time-limited task.
Speaking of the system, the system arrived, Liu Jingxin was taken aback.
At this moment, the system prompt suddenly sounded without greeting.
Get a limited-time quest (Yu Changshun's wish) Tips: Can Peking Opera also incorporate fresh elements, and there have been many successful cases, it is recommended that the host try boldly. 】
Originally, Liu Jingxin already wanted to give up this time-limited task, but he didn't expect the system prompt to appear at this time, which means that this time the parent-child party at the school of the uncle and granddaughter is an opportunity to complete the time-limited task.
Liu Jingxin pondered for a moment and then suggested, "Uncle Yu, have you ever thought about integrating your favorite Peking Opera with your granddaughter's favorite pop songs?"
Uncle Yu and Uncle Gao were stunned when they heard this, and the two looked at each other, their faces full of doubts, as if they couldn't understand the meaning of Liu Jingxin's words.
Liu Jingxin asked again: "There is a variety show called "National Color and Heavenly Fragrance", have you seen it?"
Uncle Yu and Uncle Gao shook their heads in unison, and said in unison: "I haven't seen it." ”
Liu Jingxin immediately introduced this show to the two uncles.
"National Colors and Heavenly Fragrance" is a drama variety show run by a local TV station, and the program team invited some competition stars, trained them professionally, and performed in the program, and the repertoire they chose was all popular songs adapted from opera.
It can be said that in this variety show, traditional opera has been presented in a new way, which has attracted more people's attention and love, and has played a positive role in promoting the spread of traditional opera.
In order to let the two uncles understand their thoughts, Liu Jingxin took out his mobile phone and found the variety show "National Color and Tianxiang" on the Internet, chose Zhang Yuan's "At Least You", and directly used the traffic to play the video to the two uncles.
After an ad, the video starts playing.
Uncle Yu pointed to the screen and said with an excited expression: "Look, farewell concubine!"
The two people who sing this song in the video are dressed in classic Peking Opera costumes, Zhang Yuan plays Yu Ji, and his partner plays Xiang Yu. If it weren't for the song title of "At Least You" that had been played on the screen, it was estimated that the two would have believed that they wanted to sing "Farewell My Concubine".
The prelude of this song has not changed much from the original version, and the two uncles frowned, thinking that Liu Jingxin was lying to them, but when Zhang Yuan sang the lyrics with his highly recognizable Danjiao singing voice, the two uncles were bright-eyed and began to listen carefully.
"I'm afraid it's too late, I'm going to hold you......"
After singing a song, Yu Ji played by Zhang Yuan drew her sword and killed herself, giving the most well-known poignant ending.
Uncle Yu handed the phone back to Liu Jingxin, frowned and asked, "You mean, let me and my granddaughter perform the show in this way?"
Liu Jingxin nodded and said, "That's pretty much what it means." ”
Uncle Yu shook his head and said, "But I won't change it." ”
Liu Jingxin smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, if you can believe it, I can try." ”
Uncle Yu said happily: "Yes!"
At that moment, Liu Jingxin began to choose songs with the two uncles. And choosing songs has become a problem for them.
According to Liu Jingxin's idea, the song they chose was best liked by Uncle Yu's granddaughter, so as to fully mobilize the enthusiasm of the little girl.
However, Uncle Yu usually has very little communication with his granddaughter in these aspects, so he can't tell what his granddaughter likes at all.
So, Liu Jingxin and Uncle Yu agreed that after going back today, Uncle Yu tried to communicate more with his granddaughter to figure out which songs the little girl liked, and then choose those songs that are suitable for adaptation.
A day later, the next morning, Liu Jingxin came to the park again to exercise, he first ran around the lake to compete with the old man in the hurdle vest, and then climbed up the hill with a thermos cup with a sweat and came to the small pavilion.
Uncle Yu had already dragged Uncle Gao to wait there, and the two sat at the stone table and chatted, without practicing their voices.
Seeing Liu Jingxin walking into the pavilion, Uncle Yu stood up with a melancholy face and said, "Xiao Liu, you can be regarded as here." ”
Liu Jingxin asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"
Uncle Yu said with a bitter face: "I went back to ask my granddaughter, and I found out all the songs she liked and listened to them." ”
"How?" asked Liu Jingxin.
Uncle Yu shook his head again and again and said: "What kind of songs are they, all in the same key, that is, one person is reciting the lyrics." I've listened to several songs, and they all sound the same. ”
Liu Jingxin was stunned, and then reacted, Uncle Yu's granddaughter's favorite music style should be rap, driven by variety shows, it has become a particularly popular music genre in the past two years.
But after all, rap music is too trendy, and it is estimated that it is difficult for older people to accept it, let alone old ticket friends like Uncle Yu.
Peking Opera is a sentence sung for a long time, and it pays attention to the charm, while the rap is very fast, and the rhythm and rhyme are emphasized. It's really difficult to get these two styles together.
Liu Jingxin also began to feel melancholy, he didn't know what to do for a while.
