Chapter 211: Concert (5)
On January 21, the third stop of Shen Lian's concert chose Hangzhou, the capital of Zhejiang Province. At this stop, he released the third song of his new album "Sakura Blowing Snow".
Different from the previous "Shen Lian" style love songs, this song tells you a sad love memory of a wanderer. Shen Lian's highly recognizable voice combines lyrics and melody well. Sincerely share the insights of life, let the fans go in a hurry, and don't forget the original intention.
Shen Lian continues to dominate the headlines of the entertainment page. The way to launch new songs at each concert is also very novel. Although it will affect the mystery of the song to a certain extent, it will increase the topic and attention of the concert. However, there are really few singers who have the strength to play like this. On the one hand, most of the songs in everyone's album are mixed. Except for Shen Lian, Jay Chou, and Wang Lihong, these creative talents can maximize the lower limit of their songs, other singers are not sure. If you perfunctory fans with saliva songs at the concert, the result will definitely be a chicken and egg beating.
Of course, as the date approached, Shen Lian also knew that "YZM" was really coming. At that time, no matter how good the song is, no matter how wonderful the magic show, it will be robbed of all the topic by this event.
On January 26, the fourth stop of Shen Lian's concert was held in Beijing as scheduled. Shen Lian invited Li Jian, a former member of Shuimu Nianhua, as a guest singer, and first sang the song "Life with You" by the Shuimu Nianhua group, and then Li Jian sang Shen Lian's "You Love Her So Much", and Shen Lian sang Li Jian's "Legend" in response. The collision of the two musical talents sparked infinite sparks. Shen Lian really appreciates Li Jian very much. On the stage, it was also agreed that they would continue to cooperate in the future. Even Shen Lian had a song with Li Jian to supplement the album. Li Jian also gladly accepted. In Beijing, Shen Lian also released the fourth song of his new album "Silent Moment".
And the headlines of the entertainment section on this day were not surprisingly occupied by the exposure of large-scale nude photos of Edison and Gillian. Everyone knows that something big is going to happen in the Hong Kong entertainment industry. Some people even claimed that they still had a photo of Xie Tingfeng's wife, Zhang Baizhi.
A day later, large-scale photos of Edison and Chen Wenyuan were revealed, and the situation was further expanded. Everyone began to doubt and even believe that Zhang Baizhi did have nude photos. Emperor issued a statement to the police, and the police filed and entrusted a lawyer to follow up.
Immediately afterwards, seven actresses, including Zhang Baizhi, were involved one after another, while maggieQ, Cai Yilin, and Xiao Yaxuan, who were suspected before, were not involved.
Although the focus is completely occupied by Hong Kong, the Tianjin station of Shen Lian's concert is still going on as scheduled, and the tickets are completely sold out, and it is obvious that this kind of thing will not affect the mainland for the time being. The atmosphere of this performance is always a little weird compared to the previous ones.
However, Shen Lian's latest single "Cun Zài" released in Tianjin Station has aroused a fierce response from fans at the scene. This song is different from Shen Lian's unique love song style in the past, and he did not try Chinese-style tracks again, but boldly took the rock route. In Shen Lian's view, rock music is not only rebellious and dissatisfied, but also represents a kind of vitality that breaks through suffocation. Asking questions and finding answers in the process is the driving force behind the creation of the song "Cun Zài".
Not only at the scene, after the video was forwarded to the Internet, the topic of this song was second only to "Fireworks Are Cold", which debuted at Nanjing Station. And although many music critics can only see the shooting video with very average quality, they still express their good feelings for this song.
The alternation of the desolate voice and the majestic roar also makes the whole song seem layered, so that the singing itself, rather than the arrangement, can control the magnificent musical atmosphere of the whole song. Shen Lian's breakthrough was quite bold and successful. ”
In the same way as the anger and criticism of rock music in people's impressions, Shen Lian gives the whole work a sense of oriental vastness and vicissitudes, and thus has an epic musical temperament. The musical openness also gives "Cun Zài" the same sense of upward and power as American road music, which makes people question at the same time, but will not lose their way, and the musical temperament rather than the inspirational tone in the lyrics makes the work "Cun Zài" have a positive rather than negative or even decadent meaning. ”
"It may not be able to sing and dance like a trendy electronic dance music, but it has a kind of spirited and cathartic release like dancing in the wind. Shen Lian also uses this poem "Saving Zài" to let us reposition the meaning of self and life in Zài. ”
After the end of the Tianjin station, Shen Lian's national tour was half completed. And as the Spring Festival approaches, the process will also be temporarily halted. However, although the concert itinerary is temporarily over, Shen Lian has not been able to rest. The TV series "New Love", which was filmed a year and a half ago, officially signed a contract with CCTV and will log in to CCTV on May 17, 08. Because Shen Lian will not be able to attend the premiere event at that time, the promotional video of the TV series can only be recorded in advance, and the only people involved are Shen Lian and the heroine Xue Kaiqi.
On February 1, Shen Lian met the long-lost Xue Kaiqi in the hotel.
"Hi Fiona. It's been a long time. Shen Lian greeted Xue Kaiqi very warmly. After the filming of the TV series, the two did not see each other again. The Academy Awards, which were originally scheduled to meet, unfortunately passed by because of Shen Lian's absence.
"Hi, Gilbert. I haven't seen you for two years, but I'm getting better. Xue Kaiqi continued to speak non-standard Mandarin.
"Forget it, you still speak Cantonese." Shen Lian reminded: "Yes, it's been two years, and it's changed a lot. ”
"I heard you're going to hold a concert at the Hong Kong Red Pavilion?" Xue Kaiqi said enviously. As a Hong Kong singer, she has not yet reached this goal.
"Haha, luck. You'll be able to do it soon. Shen Lian encouraged. The Hong Kong music scene is very sluggish, although Xue Kaiqi is quite popular in Hong Kong, and the TV series she starred in is also well received, but she is personally determined to sing, and she has no intention of getting involved in the film industry too much, she is a very stylish girl, Shen Lian still admires her very much.
"I'll definitely go to see it in March when I have time. Come on. Xue Kaiqi smiled and encouraged Shen Lian.
"Actually, I wrote a Cantonese song this time. When the time comes, I'm going to sing it live at the concert, do you want to listen to it? "Although it is a café on the first floor of the hotel, there are not many people at this time, so it is not impossible to sing softly.
"Wow, you're so good to me, you want to soak me?" Xue Kaiqi joked.
"If you don't have a serious person, who did you learn from?" Shen Lian glared at Xue Kaiqi and began to sing in a shallow voice: "It seems to be a pity that the old relationship paragraph by paragraph seems to be a pity, that is, who will have fate in the future, and it will never be able to replace this cordial texture." If one day I get close to you again, as strange and not shocked, don't be sad for the rest of your life. There is no regret about the old love paragraph by paragraph, day and night for who is also fate, it is not in vain to hold this sense of comfort and mission all my life, if one day because of this emotion, I cherish what you love, and my departure is also love......" Shen Lian directly sang the ** part of the new song he wrote to Xue Kaiqi.
"It's really amazing." Xue Kaiqi gave a thumbs up: "I was going to ask you to write songs for me in the TV series, but the director had already arranged it." It's a shame. The two new songs of Xue Kaiqi in the TV series, "New Love" and "Tear That Letter", were set early, so Shen Lian had no room to play.
"In the future, if there is a suitable one, I will send it to you." It's not that he wants to chase Xue Kaiqi, it's just that Shen Lian really admires Xue Kaiqi.
"Another day, if I change your song to the Cantonese version, you can charge me less royalties." Xue Kaiqi half-jokingly.
"I personally have no opinion, but I will have to wait three years after the release of the Chinese version." Shen Lian also gave a half-joking reply.
