Chapter 69: Grievances
The 12-in-10 competition is also held a week later, but this round is a bit special, the repertoire must be a duet, and there will be 12 female singers as partners in the competition.
These female singers are actually arranged by the organizers, because in addition to the all-male class "Voice of Youth", Shengshi Entertainment also has the corresponding "Singing Fanghua", and there is no shortage of female singers under it.
Besides, with the current popularity of "The Voice of Youth", even if there are not enough female singers under Shengshi Entertainment, there are a lot of female singers outside who are willing to take a hand and increase their popularity.
However, the cleverness of Shengshi Entertainment is that they did not give all the places to their female singers, but took the initiative to invite other record companies to cooperate, and while sharing the popularity of "Voice of Youth", they obtained the resources of other companies to achieve the purpose of resource sharing.
Especially Fang Tianyu, who can be called the king of popularity, many female singers hope to be his partners, including many domestic first-line female singers.
Shengshi Entertainment first asked Fang Tianyu's opinion to see if he had a suitable candidate in mind.
Fang Tianwu did not hesitate to invite Yu Yunshu, because Yu Yunshu was the star he was most familiar with and most willing to cooperate with in this time and space.
However, Yu Yunshu, as one of the judges of the competition, let her participate in the competition, which may cause questions from the outside world.
After Guo Wenxi discussed Fang Tianyu's opinion with Cheng Shili and Du Youbang, he quickly replied and agreed to invite Yu Yunshu as Fang Tianyu's partner.
Of course, Yu Yunshu has no opinion, she has been heartbroken by Fang Tianhu's talent for a long time, so she really wants to try to cooperate with Fang Tianyu.
In addition to Yu Yunshu, Shengshi Entertainment also invited female singers from five other companies, and the rest of the places were reserved for their own female singers. Among them, Zhao Anhu's partner is Tang Xiaoxiao, the national champion of the last "Singing Fanghua".
In addition, Zheng Xingliang's partner is Mo Yinghua, who is among the first-line female singers in China with Yu Yunshu.
Shengshi Entertainment soon announced the partners of twelve players including Fang Tianyu and Zhao Anhu on the Zhouguang blog and other channels.
The one that can attract the most attention is naturally the pair of Fang Tianwu and Yu Yunshu, after all, the two only had an affair a few days ago.
Fortunately, after the adjustment of Fang Tianyu and Yu Yunshu, the fans of the two parties have put down their rivalry and left messages on their blogs, looking forward to their first cooperation.
The other pair that caused discussion was Zheng Xingliang and Mo Yinghua, because with Mo Yinghua's status in the Chinese music scene, Zheng Xingliang was far from worthy. People who don't know Zheng Xingliang's background, it's hard to imagine how Mo Yinghua could be his partner. Of course, Zheng Xingliang's fans don't think so, but think that Mo Yinghua, who is over 30 years old, is "an old cow eating tender grass".
A few days before the competition, all the female singers who were determined to participate in the competition rushed to Tanzhou to rehearse with their partners. Mo Yinghua, who has a tight schedule, is no exception, she came three days before the competition, and decided to use her masterpiece "Walking on the Moonlight" to participate in the competition before coming to Tanzhou.
On the rehearsal venue, Mo Yinghua and Zheng Xingliang were preparing to practice on stage, while Yu Yunshu and several other female singers watched from the audience.
Mo Yinghua to Zheng Xingliang has not yet started, Yu Yunshu took advantage of this free time to look at the music score in his hand, this is the song that Guo Wenxi just handed her - "You are the eternal pain in my chest".
This is a song specially prepared by Fang Tianwu for him and Yu Yunshu to perform on the same stage, and when Yu Yunshu saw the score of this song, he already had an amazing feeling.
Because it's a new song, the general process is to wait for the song to come out, and then the singer will practice it. At this time, the score of "You Are the Eternal Pain in My Chest" has been handed over to Shengshi Entertainment to accompany the production of dense drums.
When the accompaniment comes out, Yu Yunshu and Fang Tianwu can go to the recording studio to practice, and then practice on stage when they reach a certain level.
Now Guo Wenxi handed over the song to Yu Yunshu so that she could get familiar with it as soon as possible.
At this time, Fang Tianyu came over, found Yu Yunshu in the audience at a glance, and sat next to her. It's just that Yu Yunshu was so engrossed that he didn't notice that there was another person next to him.
"Sister Yu, this song is okay, right?"
Yu Yunshu was slightly startled by this sudden voice, and saw Fang Tianwu sitting next to her with a smile on his face.
She blushed slightly, but she quickly disguised it.
"But I think it's a bit high, I'm afraid I won't be able to sing it. ”
Yu Yunshu was a little worried, because she knew that she was not good at high notes, and she would break her voice if she was not careful, so Fang Tianyu's song made her both appreciate and be afraid.
"Don't worry, the part with the high tune is the part I sing, and your part just needs to play at a normal level. If Sister Yu is good at high notes, I wouldn't dare to come out with this song. ”
"Why?"
"Because I'm afraid that I won't be able to steal the limelight from you, Sister Yu. ”
Only then did Yu Yunshu understand that he was arranged by Fang Tianyu to play a supporting role.
"I've become your foil, you're amazing. ”
Being stared at by Yu Yunshu's eyes that seemed to be happy and disgusted, Fang Tianwu was a little overwhelmed, and hurriedly turned his attention to Zheng Xingliang and Mo Yinghua on the stage, just as the two of them had just started to practice.
Mo Yinghua is tall, his appearance can only be said to be decent, and his eyes are a little small. To be able to become one of the first-line singers in China, Mo Yinghua relies on his outstanding singing skills. She has debuted for many years and has captured a large number of fans with a number of excellent works.
This is due to the fact that Venus, which is also one of the three giants of the domestic record industry, has a unique vision when choosing songs for her, and can find songs that match her voice and temperament very well.
Therefore, even though Mo Yinghua is in his thirties, he is still active in the domestic music scene, and he has not been killed on the beach by rising stars such as Yu Yunshu.
And Mo Yinghua's voice is also very recognizable, especially good at alto interpretation, and "Walking on the Moonlight", which is now set as the competition repertoire, is Mo Yinghua's masterpiece. In fact, this song "Walking on the Moonlight" is very difficult to sing in Mo Yinghua's works, and I believe that Mo Yinghua was specially selected in order to accommodate Zheng Xingliang's worthless singing skills.
However, even if it is one of the less difficult songs in the work, it seems that Zheng Xingliang is also singing very hard.
Especially with Mo Yinghua's powerful partner as a comparison, Zheng Xingliang looked very unbearable, and he was beaten by Mo Yinghua's singing skills throughout the whole process, and he was completely reduced to Mo Yinghua's foil.
Yu Yunshu and Fang Tianwu in the audience shook their heads when they heard this, and Yu Yunshu couldn't help laughing: "I'm curious about how much money or favors Zheng Xingliang or Shengshi Entertainment spent to invite Mo Yinghua to be this guy's partner, I guess Mo Yinghua is also scolding his mother in his heart now." ”
People outside the industry don't know the inside story, but many industry insiders who pay attention to "The Voice of Youth" can guess that if there is not enough money to open the way, how can Mo Yinghua, a long-famous first-line singer, help Zheng Xingliang, a fledgling newcomer, stand on the platform.
If you really want to find a newcomer who can make singers of this level willing to cooperate, in the current country, I am afraid that there is only Fang Tianyu.
Therefore, Zheng Xingliang's background has been suspected by many people.
Finally, after the rehearsal, everyone in the audience applauded, and this applause was naturally not for Zheng Xingliang, but for Mo Yinghua's face.
Even though Mo Yinghua was dissatisfied in her heart, she still patiently gave instructions to Zheng Xingliang, only hoping that she would not sing too ugly when she officially took the stage, otherwise it would be too embarrassing for her Mo Yinghua.
In the end, Mo Yinghua asked Zheng Xingliang to put some effort into practicing hard, and then walked off the stage and went straight to Yu Yunshu and Fang Tianyu.
Fang Tianwu and Yu Yunshu both stood up, but Yu Yunshu's movements were slow.
"Sister Hua, hello. ”
When Mo Yinghua came to him, Fang Tianwu took the initiative to greet him, after all, he was just a newcomer now, and he had to show enough respect for a senior like Mo Yinghua.
"Xiao Fang, I have admired you for a long time. Mo Yinghua was very enthusiastic about Fang Tianhu, and said with a smile: "I like every one of your songs very, very much, and I also told my friends that a talented Fang Tianwu suddenly fell from the sky, and our domestic music scene is going to be lively." ”
"Sister Hua is too awarded. ”
"Xiao Fang, don't be too modest, I was looking forward to when I could cooperate with you, but I didn't expect this opportunity to be snatched away by Xiaoyun. ”
When he said this, Mo Yinghua's gaze turned to Yu Yunshu unhurriedly, and although the smile on his face was still there, it immediately faded by two points: "Xiaoyun, we don't seem to have met since the last award ceremony, it's been almost a year." ”
"Yes, it's been a year, Sister Hua, your noble people are busy, I'm a junior, where is it worth your attention. ”
Yu Yunshu was also smiling, but no matter how you look at it, this smile seems to be coping.
Mo Yinghua's smile became thicker: "Yes, I haven't seen you release a new album for more than a year, if it weren't for the scandal between you and Xiao Fang last time, I would have almost forgotten that you are the person." ”
Without waiting for Yu Yunshu to speak again, Mo Yinghua turned back to Fang Tianyu's side: "Xiao Fang, Xiao Yun is also a singer with good strength, but with your conditions, you deserve a better partner." Okay, I'm a little tired, so I'll go back and rest first, goodbye. ”
Watching Mo Yinghua walk away accompanied by several assistants, Yu Yun was so angry that he bit his lips.
"Got a holiday?"
Fang Tianwu naturally saw the-for-tat confrontation between these two women just now, and Yu Yunshu obviously fell behind in front of the powerful Mo Yinghua.
Yu Yunshu sat back and said angrily: "At the beginning, I still respected this woman very much, and I felt that she had profound qualifications and outstanding strength, and she also took care of us juniors. It was only later that I found out that she spoke ill of me in front of many people and ruined my image!"
"Why?"
"I also found out later that a certain French perfume brand that had been looking for her endorsement before did not renew her contract, but found me. I didn't know it at the time, but she thought I was stealing her endorsement. ”
Yu Yunshu said sullenly: "The person in charge of the perfume brand also explained to me that the reason why I was asked to endorse was because I was positioned younger and more able to cater to the tastes of young consumers. But it's not my fault, and I never thought of robbing her of her endorsement. ”
"You're wronged. ”
Fang Tianwu was also a little crying and laughing, but many people in this circle are like this, when everyone has no conflict of interest, it is natural to say hello, hello, hello, everyone, but once it comes to conflict of interest, then it is embarrassing, the bright knife comes to the dark knife, whoever falls first is unlucky.
However, Fang Tianwu also knew a little bit about Mo Yinghua's personality at this time, in addition to the "upright" temper that the outside world had already known, this person's strength was also very small.
