Chapter Fifty-Six: The Fragmented First Stage
Hearing Qian Mingxun's singing, many people were stunned for a moment.
It's not that Cheon Myung-hoon was too nervous and made a mistake, he had no problem singing, just because it was almost the same as the voice in the OST.
OST is background music that acts as a sound aid to the TV picture. This is a completely different concept from a music video.
OST is usually expressed in a soft, soothing way and is not suitable for singing too strongly. When recording the OST sample, Lee Seon-hee asked Cheon Myung-hoon not to use techniques and to keep his voice as low as possible, just to fit the atmosphere in the TV series.
But this time it's a stage show, and of course something has to change.
If Cheon Myung-hoon's vocal range is 1-10, the OST that everyone hears may be suppressed to 4-5. At this time, as soon as Qian Mingxun opened his mouth, it was already 6, which of course sounded like two completely different feelings.
This time, the arrangement not only adjusted the tone, but also slightly increased the tempo. From a typical slow song, to a near-mid-tempo feeling.
Emotionally, it no longer continues the deep sadness of life and death in OST, and with a slight change, it becomes an eternal promise made to each other by lovers.
The hallmark of classic songs is that they can switch like this without feeling out of place. Everyone has their own understanding of the song, just like "Hamlet".
Cheon Myung-hoon's voice talent is completely perverted. Even if Li Xianji restricts his high voice, he is still an excellent level among normal people.
And on the first stage of the only once in a lifetime, Li Xianji lifted all restrictions. Cheon Myung-hoon can finally give full play to it and interpret the song "Snow Flower" in the fullest way.
Such a timbre...... There is an incredible newcomer in the music industry!
If it is on the stage of a certain voice, I am afraid that many people will be eager to turn around for him.
The magic contained in Cheon Myung-hoon's singing touches the most emotional memories in the hearts of every listener.
A fond memory buried deep in my heart.
The sustenance of emotions when tossing and turning at night.
It was a day of the first snow that year.
Who do you think of?
I don't know who Cheon Myung-hoon is thinking about, and the sensibility in his heart can be unleashed.
The thoughts of everyone in the studio broke through the shackles of time and space with the singing.
β¦β¦
Clasp your hands tightly
No matter what time of day it goes
Just because I'm with you
Tears will fall
β¦β¦
Just when everything was getting better, a change happened unexpectedly!
The accompanying music suddenly jumped frames, and it jumped three times in quick sentences!
In 04, the broadcasting equipment of the TV station has not been updated, and it is still a backward cassette. But the singer's personal studio must have already been upgraded. Cheon Myung-hoon had been practicing in the recording studio of his teacher Lee Seon-hee before, and he had never encountered such a situation.
And this is Cheon Myung-hoon's debut stage, and the worst he has ever planned for himself is to go out of tune. As for whether there will be a problem with the accompaniment of the television station? I'm afraid that normal people would not think about this.
Cheon Myung-hoon was not prepared at all, and by the time he reacted, the lyrics had already blurted out.
In a hurry, he instinctively lowered his volume and quickly passed it, and then followed the progress of the accompaniment again.
Such an abrupt strangeness instantly woke up everyone who was immersed in the song!
Li Xianji's expression was very serious, she hadn't been so angry in many years!
Fortunately, my disciple has excellent psychological quality. Although it was the first official stage appearance, the response was swift and did not mess up.
If the live broadcast stage of the annual KBS Drama Awards stops, I don't know how serious the consequences will be!
There was some commotion in the studio. Artists have experienced countless turmoil, and expression management has long become instinctive. But the audience couldn't help but talk about it.
At this time, a certain minister in the audience was already scared into a cold sweat, and he could no longer care about contacting and feeling with several beautiful actresses around him.
There was such a broadcasting accident, and he could not escape the blame!
His subordinates had already reported to him the problem of old equipment, and the funds of the TV station's finance department had also been approved. It was he who put the deal on and off in order to get bigger kickbacks. This oil and water is very large, and the replacement has not been completed by the end of the year.
I thought there would be no problems in the past two days. I didn't expect it to come so quickly, but it was also the most important occasion of the year-end acting awards!
Equipment manufacturers also know that the end of the year is very critical, and they have been biting the price. He would have had the upper hand in the negotiations as long as he had dragged it out tonight. As a result, the dream was shattered in an instant!
Why is this happening? It's okay when it's rehearsal!
No, you have to call the manufacturer now to send you the new equipment. To hell with kickbacks or something, try to keep your job first!
But it is impossible to stop this during the live broadcast, and only by waiting until the end of the song can you get time to replace the emergency equipment.
The minister kept praying: I hope the song ends safely, but there are no more problems.
I don't know if it's a punishment from heaven for this minister or a test for Cheon Myeong-hoon. After only a few seconds of normalcy, the accompaniment skipped frames again!
And this time the problem is even more serious:
With the crisp sound of "click", the music continued to jump more than ten times in succession, and even skipped a whole paragraph!
The studio exploded instantly, and even some artists couldn't control it a little, revealing strange expressions.
In the face of such a riot, the camera did not know where to turn the camera. The experienced director thought about it and cut the picture to the stage.
The accident has already appeared, and there is no possibility of hiding it at all. At this time, what the audience wants to see most must be the reaction of the singer himself.
ββββ
The close-up gives Cheon Myung-hoon's facial expression, and the people in front of the TV see an extremely calm face.
Cheon Myung-hoon closed his eyes and took his hearing to the extreme. Struggling to discern from the noise of the environment, trying to find the point in the flashes of audio.
Everyone interprets Cheon Myung-hoon's expression as sad and lost, because they think it makes sense. So they felt sorry and distressed for the singer.
But only Lee Seon-hee understands what Cheon Myung-hoon is doing.
Perhaps in the eyes of the people, this stage has long been fragmented, and there is no need to continue to insist.
But this is Cheon Myung-hoon's first stage, his first hurdle to become a singer, and the most important experience of his career.
What kind of attitude he chooses to face this stage can actually be compared to his future career as a singer.
It's not that Chi Myung-hoon can't give up, and it's not that he can't find someone to shirk his responsibility. He could have stopped there, and no one was going to blame him for it.
After all, he's only a seventeen-year-old, and he's a complete newcomer.
It's easy to give up.
But after making that choice, Cheon Myung-hoon no longer had the courage to face difficulties and a reason to regain his strength.
Because it was he who gave up the qualification to persevere to the end.
Even if the end result is not satisfactory.
But he also has to give himself an explanation!
Come on, Xiaoxun, the teacher believes in you.
Take this opportunity to show the world your talent.
That way they will understand how precious your presence is.
ββββ
If God helps.
The moment the accompaniment returned to normal, Cheon Myung-hoon caught the right progress in the tone of the moment.
If the wind shakes my window
If it also wakes up the night
Along with your painful memories
I'll smooth it all out
With the brightest smile
The endless white snowflakes that fell
Take us down this street
I don't know when it was dyed white
Flashing with brilliant light
I'm going to live for someone
Whatever I want to do for her
I also learned that this is love
......
When Cheon Myung-hoon opened his mouth and sang the first word, the studio resounded with enthusiastic cheers.
Although Cheon Myung-hoon was not calm at the moment, his perfect control still did not make any flaws in his voice.
It's as if the accompaniment accident just now hadn't happened.
Such a calm performance once again moved everyone present, and the neat applause rang out spontaneously.
What kind of determination and courage did he have to persevere on such a fragmented stage?
If only you could know where you are
I want to be a star in a winter night
How nice it would be to shine on you
Whether it's a laughing daytime
Or a sad night soaked in tears
Whenever, whenever
I'll be there for you
......
With the never-ending chorus, finally at the last chorus of the song, ushered in the last extremely difficult frame skip.
Although the accompaniment span this time is not large, only half a sentence. But this half sentence is the foreshadowing part of the final high note.
Cheon Myung-hoon forcibly swallowed the sound that was about to blurt out, and when he closed his mouth, he used too hard to bite his lower lip.
There was no time to calm his breath, and Cheon Myung-hoon immediately sang the five-second treble "By Your Side"!
The audience was silent again.
If you don't have the momentum in front, go straight to the last high note. The difficulty will be increased by a geometric multiplier.
Not only is it difficult to grasp the pitch, but it is also difficult to substitute feelings.
The high-pitched articulation is a difficult problem, and most of the treble notes are syllables that have no meaning. The high note at the end is usually the last note of the last word.
It is not easy to control the treble well, and the feelings are all maintained by the foreshadowing in front. It's almost impossible to make adjustments with subtle changes.
After this abrupt pause, the relationship that Qian Myungxun had laid down before was gone. Will the final treble look abrupt at this point?
No, the answer is no.
Qian Mingxun seems to have condensed a thousand words into this one sentence.
With just four words, "by your side", he once again pulls the listener into the memory.
Completing this series of processes is not only a demanding requirement for singing skills. What's more important is that the singer himself is talented.
Don't forget that this is just an unexpected incident, not a vocal skill that the singer has honed repeatedly offstage.
Finally, Cheon Myung-hoon's first stage is coming to an end. This song "Snow Flower" also progresses to the final paragraph.
Looking at the moment
This year's first snow petals
In the company of each other
I want to entrust everything I have to you
Do you know such feelings?
Don't cry, please look at me, okay
Am I not right next to you?
There is only the thought of being with you in my heart
Vowed never to let go again
Among the snowflakes that covered the streets
A small memory in my heart
Little by little, it came to my heart
You'll always be thereβ
My side
......
