Several judges discussed and sent Zhou Yingchen to answer everyone's questions, Zhou Yingchen was also prepared for this question, picked up the microphone and paused and said, "Xia Shamo's performance in this song is perfect, why 0.2 points are deducted is because she chose an English song, she also chose an English song in the last qualifying competition, and the singing was flawless, I also deducted 0.2 points." ”

Zhou Yingchen pushed off the glasses on the bridge of his nose, looked at the manuscript paper, and continued: "In recent years, singing English songs has become a fashion for singers. However, whenever I ask these people, most of them don't know the meaning of the lyrics. I have always insisted on my own views on the issue of Chinese people singing foreign songs, and I have put forward the idea that "singing should belong to the mother tongue" more than once in class. Because of this incident, some teachers who encouraged students to sing English songs even approached me for reason, questioning my behavior of "contrarian" among students. Actually, he didn't understand what I meant. My point of view is not to reject or deny the idea of learning to sing English songs, but to make students understand why they should sing English songs. As a person who studies pop music, learning English songs is a compulsory course, and it is not a question of whether you can learn it or not, but it must be learned. Why? Because, European and American pop music is stronger than us. I have been studying Western pop music for more than ten years, and I know the power of European and American pop music, and the reason why I put forward the idea of "singing should adhere to the mother tongue" is because I think that our 'Chinese civilization' is also very strong, and we must use our own culture to counter foreign culture. Therefore, English songs should be learned, but I feel that learning it is only a process, not a goal. ”

Zhou Yingchen's fingers were dipped in saliva, turned a page of manuscript paper, and continued to say: "Language is the root of a nation's culture. A country's TV screen. If it's full of foreign songs, isn't that a very strict question? I have met quite a few students who have asked them to sing Chinese songs. Someone even said: "I don't usually sing Chinese songs, I usually sing English songs." He thinks that Chinese music is vulgar. But we have so many good pop musicians in China, such as Zhang Xueyu, Li Huan, and Gao Shu, and these people are actually a very terrible cultural blind stream. At that time, Taiwan was occupied by Japan, and Japan adopted the "Imperial Movement" to force Taiwanese people to speak Japanese and sing songs in Japanese. What a terrible cultural invasion this is, and how severe are the consequences if a people's language is assimilated? Now. The admiration of European and American culture among the Chinese people, especially young people, began to spread, and learning to sing English songs is one of the most obvious phenomena. ”

"However, we must tell young people that what they like about foreign countries must be based on cultural introspection and be rational. Last year, four students from our school made it to the finals of the Golden Bell Award Pop Music Competition, and they showed their strength at one of the school's events. After the performance, I said to the dean next to me. These four students definitely won't go far, why? Three of them sang English songs, and only one was slightly weaker in Chinese. I think. We have 2,000 students studying pop singing, can't we find a good singer who can sing Chinese? As a result, only one student who sang Chinese songs won the bronze award, and all the other students were unsuccessful. The "Golden Bell Award" is such a government award that represents the country, and you can "play" with English songs, if you can win the award in this way, I don't think it will be okay to win this award. Here Xia Shamo is no longer just singing English songs, she sings original, and even her creation has discarded her native language. This is not desirable, so even if she sings well. There's no way I'm going to give her a perfect score. After finishing speaking, Zhou Yingchen looked at the group of people in the stands, and seemed to be very satisfied with his words. In fact, he was secretly glad in his heart: fortunately, Xia Shamo chose an English song, so that he still had a reason to find a reason, otherwise he really didn't know what to say.

Zhou Yingchen's righteous remarks against the "crown of sin" from the perspective of national righteousness made all the audience feel that what he said was not unreasonable. The on-site director was also very satisfied with Zhou Yingchen's performance, he successfully brought the audience from the singing competition to the cultural struggle, and many audiences with strong national consciousness have been led crookedly, and they feel that what Professor Zhou said is quite right.

Seeing that the audience was already quiet, the on-site director felt that the situation had been controlled, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and took the microphone and asked, "Do you still have any questions about Professor Zhou's answer?" ”

The audience was silent, and when the other party stood on the commanding heights of national righteousness, there seemed to be no reason to refute him.

Cheng Xiaoyu stood on the stage and looked at Xia Shamo's somewhat lonely expression, knowing that she seemed to recognize that what the other party said was reasonable, and the pride of the Chinese nation in this time and space was a bit too arrogant. The song was chosen by Cheng Xiaoyu, and now he has to stand up and carry the pot.

He stepped forward and said to the director of the scene, "I have something to say. ”

Before the on-site director could react, Cheng Xiaoyu took the microphone in Xia Shamo's hand and said loudly, "I wrote the song "", let me first talk about why this song was written in English. As an expert in the audience, the judges should know that English is indeed more suitable for singing than Chinese in pronunciation, its biting and line cavity are easier to find a more ideal vocal state than Chinese, English pronunciation is easier to change than Chinese pronunciation, English speaking is flat, so when singing, it can sing a variety of up and down tones. The pronunciation of the Chinese language itself is divided into equal ups and downs, and when singing, this intonation will limit the tonal change of the melody. The song is extremely difficult to sing, if it is changed to Chinese lyrics, it will be difficult to express the complete artistic conception, and many singing skills are also difficult to use, such as the kind of rotation and ornamentation that are difficult to sing in Chinese, so when writing this song, I first considered how to express the music I wanted to express in an ideal state. In the end, English was chosen, simply because it was the most suitable. ”

Cheng Xiaoyu stood on the stage and talked eloquently, paused to see that no one came out to refute him, and continued, "I don't agree with Professor Zhou's raising of the singing competition to the height of national righteousness. Art is not measured by national borders, it is not political, it is not economic, it is not selfish, it has the characteristics of love and benevolence, Beethoven thinks it is more revealing than truth! If you are a nationalist, don't study art, because your own thinking is limited by national borders, not to mention that there are 56 ethnic groups in China alone, and you will never be able to do it to the extreme without tolerance! Nowadays, young people prefer European and American pop music, because of the problems of Chinese musicians themselves, stubbornly conservative and not enterprising, the low quality of music, as the mainstay of the music industry, you don't dig into your own reasons, but blame others for doing too well, so you have to resist cultural invasion, this reason I really think is a little funny. And as a singing competition, whether you sing well or not is fundamental, because if you sing in English, it doesn't make sense to be the first. According to your theory, why do you hold a piano competition? It's all about playing foreigners' works, and you can't learn things like piano and violin, they were all invented by foreigners. Excessive self-esteem is inferiority, and there is no Chinese people's inclusive temperament at all, what art do you study? Oh, I see Professor Chou is wearing a Rolex, right? There are so many good watch brands in Huaxia, why don't you buy domestic ones? Want to buy Swiss? It turns out that you don't support Chinese civilization as you said! ”

Zhou Yingchen's face turned pale, and he put the hand resting on the table under the table, and the audience was also confused by this war of words. They felt that what Cheng Xiaoyu said seemed to be very reasonable.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Kov said into the microphone on the table, "This classmate, you have a problem with your attitude, you speak quite undisciplined, you lack the most basic etiquette and education, you don't care about respecting teachers, what kind of music are you talking about?" No matter what you do, the first thing is to be a person, and if you can't even do a basic person, you still talk about making music. Professor Zhou is a highly respected predecessor in the music industry, and has cultivated countless outstanding singers in our Chinese music circle, such as Li Huan, Dong Hua, Guan Shumin, etc., what achievements do you have now? I don't think it's too much to give a zero score just because of your attitude. ”

Concerning 300,000 red envelopes, Shi Yanhua also quickly spoke out in support, and then said: "The heavy responsibility of Chinese music to go to the world lies on your generation, if even you don't sing Chinese songs, then where is the hope for the internationalization of Chinese music?" We are also deeply responsible for love, although it is said that music has no borders, but musicians have borders! Do you participate in a singing competition in the United States, can you sing Chinese songs? The audience judges can't understand, why do you get a high score? Huaxia music is indeed a little problematic now, but doesn't this require more of your efforts? And this classmate, I also think you have a problem with your attitude, although English is more suitable for singing than Chinese, but the beautiful words of the Chinese lyrics are also incomparable to English, your composition level is very good, I hope you can write more excellent Chinese songs. ”

"You guys don't have any problems, to be honest, the level of the guitar is still worrying, just a melody, there are two places that are relatively rushed, not in the rhythm. So it's not right to say it's flawless. And this classmate, in the face of so many teachers, I feel that you are still domineering, maybe you are a little talented, but I dare to say that your future achievements will stop here, you must know that several judges here are well-known figures in the music industry, and the music they have heard is not only ten times and a hundred times that of yours, Mr. Cove has won countless Golden Melody Awards, Mr. Shi has won many singing competition awards at home and abroad, Mr. Zhou is full of peach and plum, Mr. Lu is needless to say that he is the youngest music professor in the opera, They all have one thing in common: humility. If nothing else, this is something you can learn from. ”

Cheng Xiaoyu thought about how to answer when several judges spoke, he felt that there must be something wrong with these judges, even if they couldn't get the first place, Lin Chen, who was in third place, sang better than Li Zilin. At this time, he heard the strong words of several judges, he had no hope of winning the first place, anyway, he was already unhappy, so everyone was unhappy together, so he whispered a few words to Chen Haoran, and when Chen Haoran sat on the drum, he planned to adjust the mouth cannon to the max level and respond to the judges with rap.
