Chapter 522: Yang An, You Win! (4th Watch)
Faced with the white guy's question, Wu Liang ignored the word "also" and replied: "Yes! β
The white guy got excited and made a gesture of holding the microphone: "Does anyone know how to sing?" β
Everyone smiled and nodded, Zeng Yike and Hua Chenyu smiled arrogantly and remained silent. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The white guy was so excited that he beckoned his hands to pull them: "Eon! We happen to be Chinese, can you two sing "Sugar"? β
Burst......
Vomit a large piece of blood below!
Wu Liang was dripping blood in his heart: "Yang An, Yang An!" Why are you so ghostly? Are you everywhere you go? What's the matter with this music festival for you? β
The white guy saw everyone's embarrassed look, picked the back of his head, for him, Chinese all look the same, there is no difference, he is completely face blind, he looked at Hua Chenyu, curiously asked: "Do you know Yang?" An Yang! β
Hua Chenyu could only nod and said with a little depression: "I know, he is a famous singer in our China, and "Sugar" is his work. β
The white guy was surprised and asked, "Can you sing?" β
Hua Chenyu said: "Yes, I will." β
The white guy was very happy: "Would you like to sing a song on stage?" The location of the fifth song in the evening can be given to you! If you perform well, another song can also be given to you to sing, which is also the work of your An Yang. β
Hua Chenyu's legs are weak, let him sing Yang An's songs in Vienna? Yes, he can sing "Sugar", but is that appropriate? This is "Flowers and Boys"!
He looked at Wu Liang, the latter's face was not bloody, and he was probably angry and had nothing to say.
The white guy patted Hua Chenyu's shoulder excitedly: "This song "Uptown-Funk" is very good, An Yang sang here four days ago, our band has rehearsed proficiently, would you like to sing on stage?" β
Hua Chenyu was going crazy, this white guy was very excited, he spoke super fast, he didn't hear the name of the song clearly, and stammered and asked, "What?" town-farkοΌ β
βuptown-funkοΌβ
Hua Chenyu can't wait to find a hole to get into, it's funk, not fark, he can't even understand funk, and he also said that he is professional in music!
There was also Zeng Yike who had a clue about the scene, she understood funk music, in fact, she had also heard fark before, and she thought that Yang An was also shameless, singing such vulgar songs in the city of music?
It turned out to be funk...... Zeng Yike also blushed slightly.
But haven't you heard that Yang An knows a lot about funk music? He is still engaged in variety shows for a Chinese, where does he have time to study music so deeply, and he can also sing funk type songs in English......
The more the two thought about it, the more difficult it became for the production team, everyone looked at Wu Liang, and even the white guy stopped talking.
Wu Liang really wants to turn around and leave, why? Why does his show want to eat the ashes on Yang An's buttocks?
Why, go to the monastery to visit, people say, you Chinese are here again?
When I went to the art museum, people were very enthusiastic when they saw seven or eight follow-up VJs, and asked, "Do you still have shots to make up?" Come on, come on, the art museum welcomes the Chinese brothers back ......"
Mending yarn! Back to the yarn!
I got angry during the day, participated in a pop music festival at night, and sang Yang An's songs again, let's be neurotic!
"Okay, you guys discuss it first, if you decide to find me, my name is Tom, it's nice to meet you!" Tom, a white guy, left with a smile, leaving the production team behind.
Director Wu ...... If we cut out the content of the pop music festival, we may have a much heavier task tomorrow......"
The chief director urgently consulted and reminded Wu Liang that without the content of the music festival, the trip to Austria would definitely be greatly disgraced.
Wu Liang angrily asked, "How can we participate?" Singing "Sugar"? Or sing this or what "uptown-funk"? You tell me, how to broadcast it on domestic TV when you go back? Hit the name of the original singer Yang An? Or do you think we can get a commercial license from Yang An? β
The chief director was silent, because of the strict copyright supervision mechanism in China, anyone who sings other people's songs in a commercial field must be authorized, otherwise, the law will teach you to be a person every minute.
"Flowers and Boys" is so commercial that it can't be any longer commercial, how dare they sing Yang An's songs publicly?
"Maybe we can give Yang An a call and ask him about his attitude." One person suggested.
There was no way out, but Wu Liang was reluctant to call, so he called Teacher He: "Teacher He, I'll leave this call to you, right?" β
Teacher He is helpless, he is really the only one in the entire production team, and he has the best relationship with Yang An.
He took out his phone and suddenly realized something: "But it's not right now......"
Wu Liang was a little angry: "What's inappropriate?" β
Teacher He sighed: "Austria is seven hours slower than China, it is now more than 6 o'clock in the afternoon, and it is almost 12 o'clock in the evening in China, will he rest?" β
Wu Liang was anxious: "Isn't he recording "Boys Over Flowers"? β
Teacher He didn't explain, and a female assistant next to him quickly explained: "Yang An only stayed in Vienna for three days before returning to China, which is the news he said on Weibo." β
Wu Liang was stunned for a moment, but quickly made a decision: "Give me his phone number, I'll call!" β
Teacher He gave it, but still gave a friendly reminder: "Director Wu, if there is another way, I don't recommend you to call him, and the authorization matter is not something that can be handled in a while." β
The chief director also suggested: "It would be best if you could contact Yang An's assistant first." β
Wu Liang asked rhetorically, "Which of you has his assistant's phone?" If it drags on any longer, it will be 12 o'clock in China! β
Everyone was speechless, and could only watch Wu Liang go all the way to the dark.
The phone was dialed out, unfortunately, "The phone you dialed has been turned off", Wu Liang was stunned on the spot, so angry that he almost dropped the phone.
What should I do? On the one hand, Mr. He contacted China and inquired about Yang An's assistant's phone number, and the chief director sent someone to ask Tom if he could change to other songs instead of singing these two songs.
Unfortunately, Tom was completely inaccommodating, and he asked rhetorically: "Why don't you sing these two songs that are particularly popular in Europe and the United States?" The singer Zeng Hehua you are talking about, what English song masterpieces do they have? β
Have it?
The persuader couldn't answer, and he left the scene embarrassed, and he didn't dare to tell Zeng Yike and Hua Chenyu such a cruel reality, so he could only complain to the chief director: "These foreigners are too dragged, and they refuse to be accommodating at all!" What do we do next? β
The chief director was helpless, half an hour later, Mr. He announced that he had given up, everyone in China was asleep, and it was not a big deal, and most people were reluctant to disturb their friends, not to mention that Yang An turned off his phone before going to bed, which means that even if Song Xiaomei is contacted, Yang An cannot be contacted!
"Director Wu, what should I do?"
Everyone looked at Wu Liang, he was just half an hour, as if he was a few years older, and waved his hand: "Sing first, there is no time, go and contact Tom." β
With such a delay, there are only twenty minutes left to practice "Uptown-funk".
Hua Chenyu felt that the pressure on his shoulders increased sharply, he was from Hubei Province, he had a flat tongue and rolled his tongue since he was a child, and the front and back nasal sounds were almost completely indistinguishable, he sang English songs, and was often picked on, saying that th was pronounced into an S sound and the like, and he had been hacked many times.
But English is not the mother tongue of Chinese, how standard it is to ask Hua Chenyu to sing, that is unrealistic, these live audiences in Vienna will not care about this small detail, as long as they see that the singer is a foreigner, they will basically tolerate pronunciation defects.
Hua Chenyu was preparing, and the others were also preparing to participate in the task challenge of the pop music festival according to the plan, because of this change, Wu Liang urgently summoned other directors to temporarily revise the script, and no one was idle.
At half past seven o'clock in the evening, Hua Chenyu finally came on stage, his singing of "Sugar" caused the whole audience to sing together, the music festival was set up on the Ring Avenue, the open-air square can accommodate thousands of people, and now there are hundreds of people watching, the scene is very warm!
Cheerful and festive songs are always loved, and the host took advantage of the momentum and introduced: "Do you know who sang "Sugar"? β
Hundreds of people below shouted in unison: "Yang from China! β
The host was too loud: "He came to Vienna four days ago and left us his brand new single "Uptown-funk", would you like to hear it? β
"Yes!" The screams were louder.
The host pointed backstage and shouted in an almost roaring voice: "Let's welcome Hua from China and bring us "Uptown-funk"!" β
The screams of the whistle were very harsh, and Hua Chenyu walked onto the stage with the encouragement of others.
The band had been waiting for a long time, and the moment he took the stage, the lights flickered, the prelude had already sounded, and the harmonic accompaniment of the pre-production sang along, just waiting for him to join in strongly.
Hua Chenyu sang stubbornly: "
this-hit-
that-ice-cold-
michelle-pfeiffer-
that-white-gold-
β¦β¦β
It doesn't matter if he sings awkwardly or not, the dynamic melody of this song is here, the soundtrack is professional, and the teleprompter is also in front of him, Hua Chenyu finally barely finished singing this song.
I have to say that this song ignites the atmosphere of the audience, and the funk rhythm brings everyone back to the disco era fifty years ago, the lyrics are stupid and not straightforward, but this is the effect, it is to be hi, it is to swing, the fans of the festival dance together, wave their arms, and the scene becomes a super large discotheque!
Barely scoring 60 points, Tom wiped his sweat, it was not that he didn't want to find Europeans and Americans to sing it, but when Yang An left this song here, he made a request - before he officially released the single, singers outside of China were not allowed to cover it.
If it was just an ordinary singer making this request, Tom could have completely ignored it.
But Yang An is the singer of "Sugar", this song is popular all over the world, almost can go to the Grammys, his request Tom can't help but listen, as for why Chinese can sing, people outside China can't sing, Tom is not clear.
So backstage, after Tom and Hua Chenyu hugged and shook hands, he praised a few words and casually mentioned it.
Hua Chenyu didn't dare to slack off, called Teacher He and Wu Liang, and carefully asked Tom Yang An about his original words.
After hearing it clearly, Wu Liang really coughed this time, with a little blood in the phlegm, and he was really suffocated from internal injuries!
"It's a pit......"
Teacher He's mouth was full of bitterness, and he completely surrendered: "Yang An, you won!" β
