Online, live broadcast room.

Barrage frantically swipes:

"This 3D special effect is simply amazing!"

"I'm afraid it's not just special effects, but the power of technology!"

"I didn't expect this technology to be developed by my country!"

"If this technology can be widely used, it will be a great thing!"

"Haha, in the future, there will be no need for any scenes, even an actor can play it!"

"Li Zhifan's acting skills are really explosive!"

"If I hadn't watched this live broadcast, I'm afraid I would never have been able to intuitively feel Li Zhifan's acting skills!"

"The first song "Old Street" is okay, the second song I thought it was a girl acting with him, but I didn't expect it to be a virtual projection, playing against a virtual projection, and I can actually smile and laugh!

"Both of these songs are so good!"

"I think the second song "Red Face" is better, I like this Chinese style. ”

"There are so many songs on the new album, which one will you sing next?"

"Does every song have this kind of special effects?"

"If that's the case, it's no less difficult to shoot than a full music video. ”

"While listening to the songs of the new album, I watched the live broadcast passing by!"

"Equal!"

“……”

Scene.

After Xiaoyu thanked the audience, she returned to her seat.

At this time, the transparent screens in front of the stage and on the left and right sides of the stage all rose, leaving only the screen behind.

"Whew! I can finally come out and breathe a sigh of relief!"

Li Zhifan took a deep breath and said with a smile, "Everyone saw this new technology just now, right?"

"See!"

Everyone shouted in unison.

"Journalist friends, help publicize more!"

Li Zhifan looked at the media people in the front row and said, "This is a new black technology product developed by Jing Tianxia, and the technique of shooting virtual characters is actually more difficult than any kind of shooting technology that is currently familiar, requiring a large number of cameras to shoot from different angles at the same time, and then it is the post-production of special effects.

"In the future, this technology will be used in various fields, and people may be able to use it as a computer or smartphone with just a pair of glasses. Of course, this is just an idea, but this is our China's scientific and technological strength, China's technology research and development, as long as everyone works together to help promote, they can do stronger!"

There was a round of applause below.

Today, the president of Jingtianxia also came to the scene.

Seeing the stage effect so brilliant, he was excited and excited, and at the same time, he also knew that Li Zhifan's acting skills and the charm of the songs, as well as the design of the special effects picture, contributed a lot.

"The following song, you don't need the technology just now!"

Li Zhifan said, "It's quite stuffy to hold inside, I still like the feeling of being in close contact with everyone, and this song is also suitable for such a small stage, sing it carefully to everyone, the song is called "The Tamed Elephant"!"

This is a pop song with a funk style, Li Zhifan amplified the trumpet and saxophone in the arrangement, and also integrated the style of jazz in the singing, which is very free and has this very casual freestyle sense.

The lyrics of "The Tamed Elephant" are quite sharp, this is a song about human nature and society, unceremoniously revealing a normal state of human existence, in order to integrate into society and become unrecognizable, if you want to applaud as long as you want to be a tamed elephant, if you want to be worshipped, you must abandon your self-esteem.

Li Zhifan chose this song precisely because he liked the beauty of the lyrics, and the melody was secondary.

But the melody of this song is also quite outstanding, just catchy, but it doesn't feel bright and relaxed, plus a strong sense of rhythm, and the piano sound in the background music gives people a sense of oppression, which blends with the artistic conception of the lyrics just right.

The arrangement is in a gorgeous circus-like atmosphere, but there is always a dissonant piano rhythm that creates a sense of oppression that hides a crisis, which is also in line with the somewhat sad showbiz ecology in the lyrics.

"Mist, mist, mist, I realized I was standing still!"

"Who the hell is blinding my heart, I don't want to be confused anymore!"

"Lost, lost, lost, I'm completely trapped in this fog!"

"Who can show me the way and lead me to the right path!"

Striving to find his true self in the fog, in the lyrics of the chorus, the determination to go to the right path is also fully revealed, full of humanistic colors.

In fact, applause and glory are nothing but performances of desire and vanity, and returning to the true self is the cry of the heart.

Although there are no 3D special effects on the stage, there are dancers as a foil.

And the way they behave is interesting.

Since it is a performance on the stage, Li Zhifan takes the form of a stage play to present it.

This time, 12 actors wearing masks and four actors without masks were invited to play two groups of people in society.

In addition to singing, Li Zhifan also plays the role of a big star on this stage.

The person with the mask was proud everywhere, and won Li Zhifan's heart.

Those who do not wear masks are ostracized everywhere and are therefore depressed.

The whole story adopts the process of magnifying and exaggerating human socialization, everyone scrambles to do purposeful things, showing too many masks, and people who were originally unwilling to compromise eventually join in because of the influence of others.

echoed the content of the lyrics with some ridiculous behaviors of everyone in socialization, and finally found that Li Zhifan, who was surrounded by everyone, was also helpless as a big star.

In the end, after experiencing too much helplessness and struggle, everyone wears a mask to live, even Li Zhifan is no exception.

On stage, when you reach the chorus, you will spray the ice machine again to express the "fog" feeling of getting lost.

Li Zhifan is on stage with stars holding the moon and unlimited scenery, but he also needs a lot of helpless compromises offstage.

Everyone, without exception, has to face the process of being tamed by society, just like an elephant who was driven from the primeval jungle to a zoo or circus, and in the process of taming, he also learned to perform his joys, sorrows and sorrows to the outside world.

But, after all, it is a performance, not the joys and sorrows of the real heart.

Because the heart has long been numb.

"Applause, if you need applause, as long as you are willing to be a tamed elephant, you can go on this stage!"

"Glory is better than being ridiculed, so put aside your self-esteem and grit your teeth!"

Until the end of the song, Li Zhifan was wearing a mask, and as the last note fell, he and all the masked dancers on the stage posed at the same time, and everyone gathered around and raised their arms high.

This look is a typical performance ending, as is the case with all family carnival shows.

But if you understand the lyrics, you will feel that this gesture is sad behind it.
