Chapter 611: The New Show Gets a Cold Reception
As soon as this news was announced, some people on Weibo already started to discuss it. γγ
"What, Gu Xiaofan wants to be in a music program?"
"Isn't he filming "The Undertaker" to hit the Oscars now? How could he still have this time? β
Compared with the previous "The Undertaker", fans have no feelings about this "I Am a Singer" at all, after all, there are too many music programs of the same type, and everyone is tired of it, not to mention the show where the singer sings, which is almost the same as a party.
Surprisingly, this Gu Xiaofan's show received an unexpected cold reception, everyone was not very interested, and everyone didn't want to talk about it.
Those who like this type of program are paying more attention to "The Voice of China" and want to listen to good songs, after all, there is Na Ying over there, Liu Huan is in charge, it is much better than the half-baked Gu Xiaofan.
Under this kind of circumstance, the registration of the so-called "jury" is also sparse, and not many people have that enthusiasm. Even everyone was a little disappointed, because this kind of singing show is, to put it bluntly, a project to make quick money, with Gu Xiaofan's current status, he shouldn't surrender his identity.
Gu Xiaofan had expected this reaction, he was reluctant to get involved in "The Voice of China" before, mainly because this kind of talent show did not match his image, he didn't want to disappoint fans, and he didn't want to be contaminated with this kind of clichΓ© show and lower his image.
However, doing "I Am a Singer", Gu Xiaofan has no such concerns, this is not just a fast food show, for Gu Xiaofan, the essence of this show is no different from a movie.
It's just that the performers on the stage have changed from actors to singers, and the same purpose is to move people's hearts, and there is no superiority or inferiority.
Monday afternoon, in a classical guitar making room in Taiwan.
Li Palmsheng, a music master with a face full of vicissitudes, was polishing the body of an acoustic guitar with tools, the sawdust accumulated around the piano, and his forehead was slightly oozing sweat, only to see him raise his hand and squint at the angle of the guitar body, as if he was still a little dissatisfied.
"Brother Li, someone is looking for you, saying that it is from Phoenix Satellite TV, and they want you to participate in a music program." At this time, I heard the female clerk of the guitar shop behind me shouting and bringing a faxed document.
"Didn't you say that this kind of thing was pushed directly?" Li Brown Sheng didn't raise his head, and said in a deep voice.
"No, this time it's very interesting, it's not for you to be a mentor judge, but for you to participate as a singer." The sweet-looking female clerk said in a sassy accent, and brought the fax paper.
"Let me compete as a singer?" Li Palmsheng couldn't help laughing when he heard this, it was really funny that there were such ridiculous people.
He was really interested in who had the guts to let him do such a thing.
Let him be a singer? So who would dare to be a judge? Huang Zhan, Luo Dayou?
Li Palmsheng took the fax paper, looked at the beginning, and was a little surprised to see Gu Xiaofan's name, he had heard this person before, the lyrics were written quite well, and he was quite talented among the younger generation, but it seemed that he was concentrating on making movies.
How could he suddenly do a music show? And to compete with music? That's too cruel for any singer, right?
Li Palmsheng took the letter with a slightly ridiculous mood and began to read it, but gradually, when he saw the lyrics of the song "The Hills", his face changed, and gradually the more he looked at it, the more obsessed he became......
I saw that his face continued to show expressions that were sometimes painful, sometimes joyful, and finally sighed a few times in a row.
"What's wrong, Brother Li?" The female clerk wondered why Li Palmsheng had such a reaction, was this letter sent by his old lover?
"I haven't written the lyrics for five years, and someone wrote them for me." Li Brown Sheng sighed and sighed, "Genius, genius." β
This song was the idea of his first arrival in Shanghai in 2003, it was a sad summer, a melody came into his mind, and the song was composed on the spot, and he spent 5 years thinking about it, he wanted to use music to communicate his life experience...... But every time he started writing, he wrote more than a hundred words, but none of them satisfied him.
And the words written by Gu Xiaofan seem to understand the life that he has never figured out clearly, every word and sentence hits his heart, it is hard to imagine that this is just the work of a 22-year-old child......
Li Palmsheng's face was full of pain, and he hesitated for a long time, but finally gently put down the half-made guitar in his hand and took off his work clothes full of sawdust dust.
"Linlin, the store has been in the store for a while, please help me take care of it."
"What are you going to do, Brother Li?" Lin Lin was surprised: "Do you really want to participate in this show?" β
"I can't help it." Li Palmsheng said with a wry smile on his face: "I originally wanted to take this song as my epitaph, but now someone else has written it for me, if I don't go, he won't sing it to me, what can I do, I'm afraid I won't be able to write his better lyrics in my life." β
Linlin opened her mouth wide when she listened, what do you mean? Li Palmsheng, a music master, actually said: "I can't write better lyrics than him in my life." βοΌοΌ
Who is this man?
The news that Chinese music master Li Palmsheng promised to join the program "I Am a Singer" soon spread back to the variety show group of Phoenix Satellite TV, and everyone was ecstatic.
You must know that in Taiwan, Li Palmsheng's lofty status in the music world can be said to be known to everyone.
With him joining, Taiwan's 0.1 ratings are very promising.
Chen Ke'er was a little suspicious in her heart, did Gu Xiaofan do something behind her back?
Could it be that in this world, is there really a character in this world who can write a lyric casually and even move Li Palmsheng?
You must know that when Gu Xiaofan wrote "The Hills", he wrote it in the studio temporarily...... Even if the song is natural, there must be a limit.
Within a week, with the arrival of Li Palmsheng, other starting singers and substitute singers also signed contracts one by one.
The program team is in a hurry and is about to start recording, but fortunately, the first episode of the program is all singing their own masterpieces, and everyone is still relatively familiar with the rehearsal.
The 7 singers who debuted this time, although they have different circumstances, have not appeared on such a big stage as a TV show for a long time.
In addition to Han Lei , Li Palmsheng, Lin Zhixuan, Huang Qishan, Deng Ziqi, these old or young singers, are just an ordinary commercial performance in this show.
Even they didn't feel anything special, or how long the show was going to be.
It wasn't until the rehearsal began that Gu Xiaofan, as the producer and music director, showed up, that they suddenly discovered that things were completely different from what they imagined...... Little did he know that this show would change his entire career as a singer......
