Chapter 168: Joker? God of Song?

The Masked Singer studio was set up at the Guandong Gymnasium in Nanjing, about 2.8 kilometers away from the TV station. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Originally, Guo Changsheng and the others did not plan to accompany Liu Mang here. The 10th episode of The Masked Singer is about to be recorded, and everyone is very busy. According to their meaning, Liu Mang sang a paragraph on the spot. But Liu Mang didn't think so. Good singing also needs a good stage, and more importantly, good audio equipment.

In "The Voice of China", there is a random newcomer, and what he sings can easily move people's hearts, why? In addition to their own qualifications, the high-end audio equipment of Good Sound also plays an important role. The same headphones, cheap goods bought at roadside stalls and famous brands bought at high prices, the music experience brought by them is very different. It's all the same thing.

The masked singer's audio equipment is world-class, and it can definitely bring a bonus to Liu Mang's singing!

Before they entered the studio, everyone heard a burst of excited singing from inside. It's someone rehearsing inside.

Liu Mang stopped and said to Guo Changsheng and the others: "For the sake of secrecy, you should probably arrange for the singers inside to take a break in the lounge for a while." ”

Guo Changsheng was immediately happy, this kid really regarded himself as a character! Along the way, his patience had run out. Hearing these words at this time, Guo Changsheng snorted coldly and said dissatisfiedly: "Everyone has a job, so I don't have time to continue playing with you." You're coming to the studio, and we're here with you. What more do you want? ”

Liu Mang smiled faintly and said, "Director Guo is right. Everyone has a job to do, and they're all busy. Me too! But now that they're all here, why not do a better job? ”

Director Guo and several leaders discussed with each other, and finally agreed with Liu Mang's opinion. Liu Mang asked so much, and everyone's patience with him had reached the limit. If his singing is disappointing, then everyone will definitely not let this arrogant guy go!

Chen Heshang walked into the studio and interrupted Tan Weiwei's rehearsal.

Chen Heshang's explanation to Tan Weiwei was that the program team invited a heavyweight singer in order to keep the singer's identity secret. She could only be allowed to go to the lounge to rest for the time being.

Tan Weiwei didn't know what big names the program team had invited, but this kind of taste of giving up the stage was really uncomfortable.

Chen Heshang vacated the stage for Liu Mang, but he was very worried. He took a moment, called Qin Shu, and asked about Liu Mang vaguely, but unexpectedly learned that the teacher had never heard Liu Mang sing.

At this moment, Chen Heshang's whole person was not good.

He returned to the corridor with an anxious expression, but saw that Liu Mang had already found a mask to put on his head. One of the biggest features of the masked singer is that all singers on stage wear masks. To this end, the program team has asked someone to design nearly 100 masks for the singers on stage to choose. Liu Mang chose a clown mask. The mask is worn on the head, and only the eyes and chin can be exposed, and the facial contours cannot be seen clearly, so it can be said that it is very tight.

He was also wearing a clown outfit, which the staff had just found.

Guo Changsheng and several leaders have great opinions on Liu Mang. It's time like this, and I'm still tossing around. Isn't it just a song? Maybe you can't sing a song, can you use it so troublesomely?

Some people speculated about Liu Mang's thoughts, "This kid won't be specially here to enjoy it, right?" ”

Someone chimed in: "You're right, this kid knew that he didn't have the opportunity to participate in the show, so he tried his best to come to the scene and experience what it was like to be on the stage of a masked singer." This kid is too scheming. ”

Guo Changsheng smiled coldly and said, "No matter whether he is scheming or not, I will give him a good look later!" ”

Everyone agreed with Guo Changsheng's opinion. Now everyone has a feeling that they are being played like a monkey. This person is naturally Liu Mang. Since everyone has become a high-level in Taiwan, I have never met such a bold person!

Liu Mang didn't know what these high-level people thought, and he walked into the studio accompanied by Chen Heshang.

The on-site staff and Tan Weiwei, who entered the lounge, all noticed the heavyweight singer. Tan Weiwei saw it through the CCTV in the lounge. Everyone is speculating about the singer's identity. Just looking at the appearance, no one can guess. There are too many stars with a body like Liu Mang in the entertainment industry. Especially when he is still wearing clown clothes, which gives his figure more room to shrink, which is even more difficult to guess.

Tan Weiwei has been in the music industry for more than ten years, and he has some impression of the heavyweight singers in the music industry. She was sure that as soon as the singer on the stage opened her mouth, she would be able to guess the identity of the other party!

Chen Heshang was communicating with Liang Qiaobai, but Liang Qiaobai's eyes kept paying attention to the clown on the stage. He also has questions in his heart, what is the identity of this invited heavyweight singer? Why did Guo Changsheng and others in the audience look solemn?

After Chen Heshang left, Liang Qiaobai explained to the musicians below, and it didn't take long for everyone to finish preparing and all looked at the clown on the stage.

Liu Mang, who turned into a clown, nodded and signaled that everyone could start.

A soothing melody sounded, which immediately broke the dreary atmosphere of the scene.

This melody felt a little unfamiliar in Guo Changsheng's ears, and several high-level executives didn't guess which song it was. But Tan Weiwei, who is familiar with the pop music scene, instantly determined that this was Jacky Cheung's "Kiss Goodbye"!

Liu Mang, who turned into a clown, stood in the center of the stage, without other body movements, just standing straight like that. Such a performance fell in the eyes of Guo Changsheng and others, which is naturally a manifestation of lack of performance experience.

At this moment, everyone is waiting for Liu Mang to start singing, some people want to guess his identity, and some people want to hear his level. Just when everyone was expecting, doubting, or apprehensive, the clown on the stage finally started singing.

"The past has become a cloud of smoke and dissipates in front of each other's eyes. Even after saying goodbye, I can't see that you have some grievances. Everything I have been given, you are just perfunctory. The more innocent you laugh, the wilder I will love you......"

The clown's singing voice reached everyone's ears clearly, and almost everyone was stunned.

Why is this singing voice so similar to Jacky Cheung?

Chen Heshang, Guo Changsheng and others, who knew Liu Mang's true identity, would not doubt it, but Tan Weiwei, who did not know his true identity, could not help but doubt it. The more Tan Weiwei listened, the more surprised he became, because no matter in terms of timbre, pronunciation skills, or the unique nasal voice, the clown looked like Jacky Cheung.

How could the program team invite Jacky Cheung here? That's simply not possible!

As the most powerful singer among the "Four Heavenly Kings" in Hong Kong, Jacky Cheung broke the record of the highest sales in the history of records in many places with the record "Kiss Goodbye" in 1993, so he was awarded the title of "God of Song". After 1995, as Jacky Cheung's music began to be valued by the international market, he was called the "Asian God of Songs". Although he has gradually retired in recent years, as long as he has a concert, countless fans will still flock to him. With the appearance of Aaron Kwok and Liming in mainland variety shows, the call for Jacky Cheung to join mainland variety shows is getting louder and louder. However, he was never seen.

The Voice of China has invited Jacky Cheung many times, but he has always refused. At an album launch, he explained the reason, "There have always been invitations, and I have been tempted many times! I do a show that I can do without doing things for two years. It's not that I don't like money, there are some things I really can't say, and if I say harsh and sharp words, I will be sad when I say them. ”

The Voice of China couldn't invite him, and I was a singer either. Now on the stage of the masked singer, there is a voice that looks very similar to Jacky Cheung, which cannot but make Tan Weiwei doubt and shake.

Liu Mang in the center of the stage was still standing there quietly, but his singing was like a storm, which shocked everyone on the scene and shook them left and right, and they were fascinated.

Guo Changsheng's eyes widened, and his eyes were full of incredulity.

Chen He's mouth opened wide and he couldn't close it for a long time.

Liang Qiaobai's heart was shocked, did the program team really invite the god of songs?

Everyone else changed their faces, and the status and image of the clown in the center of the stage in everyone's hearts instantly became much taller, because behind the clown mask, it is very likely that he is one of the "Four Heavenly Kings", Jacky Cheung, who sings the most!

After a song, Liu Mang, who had become a clown, breathed a sigh of relief. Jacky Cheung has a wide vocal range and a nasal voice that is also very distinctive. Ordinary people really can't imitate it. This song "Kiss Goodbye" Liu Mang has practiced countless times before he can do what he wants like now.

When the music stopped, Liu Mang turned around and bowed to the accompanists, then walked off the stage and walked straight to the door of the hall.

The "God of Song" left, and everyone in the audience was in a commotion.

Tan Weiwei hurriedly ran out of the lounge and chased him out. When she chased to the corridor, she happened to see the back of Liu Mang, who had turned into a clown, turning around.

She hurriedly shouted, "God of Song! ”

The god of song is not only a title, but also a kind of glory. Since records have been recorded in the entertainment industry, there are only two people who can be called the god of songs. One is the god of song Xu Guanjie, and the other is the god of song Jacky Cheung. Of course, there is an element of exaggeration in this title. In fact, since the development of the entertainment industry, no singer can truly be called the god of songs. The king and queen of heaven are already highly praised.

Jacky Cheung can be called the god of songs, which shows that he has an extraordinary status in the music world.

Tan Weiwei, who is also developing in the music industry, has a blind admiration for Jacky Cheung, so after guessing that the person behind the clown mask is very likely to be Jacky Cheung, she chased it out desperately.

Liu Mang stopped and turned to look at Tan Weiwei.

Tan Weiwei suddenly became nervous, and she asked in a trembling voice, "May I ask if you are Jacky Cheung's senior?" ”

Liu Mang was silent, if he answered yes, he was lying. If the answer is no, it is equivalent to divulging important information about identity. On the stage of The Masked Singer, maintaining the mystery of his identity is the most important thing. Liu Mang wisely chose to be silent.

At this moment, Director Guo and Chen He also chased them out.

Liu Mang turned around and left, wearing a clown mask and a prop costume, walking all the way out of the gymnasium and getting into the car he came.

Later, Director Guo and Chen Heshang also followed.

Director Guo said excitedly: "It's too similar." As long as you wear a mask, 99% of people will believe that you are the god of song, Jacky Cheung! ”

"That's right," Chen Heshang followed, "Liu Meng, your singing ability is so strong, why is it so similar?" ”

Liu Mang took off his clown mask and smiled indifferently. He said: "In terms of status in the music world, on appeal, and on fan groups, no one among all the participating singers can compare to Jacky Cheung." As soon as my fake Jacky Zhang appeared on the stage, it was definitely easy to win the breakout match. ”

Chen Heshang nodded and said, "Entering the glory unveiling session, you will definitely surprise everyone." After the show aired, the major news media will definitely report on this matter, and the masked singer can also take the opportunity to expand his influence and increase ratings. Director Guo, I think Liu Meng is definitely more valuable than Dong Chengpeng! ”

Liu Mang is indeed more valuable than Dong Chengpeng. Deputy Director Guo thinks more than Chen Heshang. There have also been many "Jacky Cheung" in previous celebrity parody shows, but those "Jacky Cheung" cannot be compared with Liu Mang. Liu Mang not only has a similar voice and singing skills, but also has a very high singing level, which is not bad at all compared to many well-known singers in the competition.

Deputy Director Guo was silent for a long time, and suddenly said, "You can't uncover your face." At your level, it's easy to win. But if you unveil it like this, it will lose its appeal and make the audience lose interest. The program group can change the competition system, and the singers who win the breakout competition can choose to unveil their faces or choose not to unveil their faces. Not revealing your face will make the audience's expectations higher! ”

Liu Mang smiled faintly and said, "This is exactly what I think. After the breakout tournament is the grand final, so we might as well save the puzzle of the clown's identity to the end. In the end, if I win the title of The Masked Singer, it will be absolutely exciting to unveil my face again! ”

Deputy Director Guo is not as confident as Liu Mang, but even if he can't win the championship, he can bring great benefits to the masked singer.

The three of them discussed for a long time, and finally negotiated Liu Mang's appearance on the show. As for inviting Dong Chengpeng, Deputy Director Guo never mentioned it again.

He knows the value of Liu Mang better than everyone else, this guy with super imitation ability, can definitely push the masked singer, a large-scale suspense singing show, to the forefront and become a hot topic among the people.

Back at the radio station, Deputy Director Guo personally wrote an invitation letter and handed it to Liu Mang. In this way, he expressed his previous apologies to Liu Mang, and at the same time showed the importance he attached to Liu Mang. The attitude of the other leaders towards Liu Mang became completely different, and their extraordinary enthusiasm made Liu Mang almost overwhelmed.

These people all know that with Liu Mang's super imitation ability and superb singing skills, it is not impossible to become the second Jacky Cheung. Everyone is very optimistic about this young man.

Of course, Liu Mang doesn't care much about these. Being able to win the place in the competition of the masked singer is the biggest gain of his trip. As for the rest, whatever!

In the end, Liu Mangwan refused Deputy Director Guo's invitation to dinner, took a plane, and rushed back to the crew.

When I got off the plane, it was already 7 o'clock in the evening. Before he left the airport, he received a phone invitation from Liu Yifei and invited him to dinner together. However, Liu Mang refused. Not for anything else, because there is another person who asked him out before Liu Yifei.

The main entrance of the Qingming Shanghe map.

As soon as Liu Mang got out of the taxi, he saw the crimson Dongfeng Peugeot parked at the door.

Zhang Xiyu has been waiting in the car for more than half an hour, from 7 o'clock to 7:40 now. It seems that she is not in a good mood, even if she sees Liu Mang, she is still a little unhappy.

Liu Mang was very puzzled, when he called, he heard that there was something wrong with the other party's tone, but now that they meet, they don't even have a smiling face, what's wrong? (To be continued.) )
