Chapter Ninety-Five: A Kiss Goodbye
What the hell is Meng Chao doing?
Not to mention that the host was surprised, even all the audience was surprised, every singer who participated in the finals in the gang singing session, who didn't invite those superstars in the music world?
After all, with CCTV's face as a guarantee, who of those music superstars will refuse this opportunity, and with the fame of these music superstars, they can also increase the voter turnout of their songs!
And many people don't know much about Zhang Xueyou invited by Meng Chao!
In fact, Zhang Xueyou only debuted from Xiangjiang two years ago, and there may be a few judges in Cantonese-speaking areas who know such a person, and indeed his singing skills are very strong and his singing voice is very beautiful!
But wouldn't it be a waste to invite such a singer who is not very famous as a guest singer?
In fact, Zhang Xueyou has released two records, including "Love Is Gone", "Caress Your Face", "Half a Moon Bend", and "Distant Her" are all high-quality works, and the records are selling well, selling more than 100,000 copies in Xiangjiang, and the mainland has recently introduced these two records, which have also sold 200,000 or 300,000 copies.
However, the number of hundreds of thousands of records may seem like a lot, but if you compare it with the number of 200 million viewers, there is still a big gap.
In addition, Zhang Xueyou debuted not long ago, and the market has not digested his songs so quickly, so the number of people who know him in the audience is still very rare.
However, Meng Chao believes that after tonight's performance, these people will remember the name Zhang Xueyou!
On the stage, Meng Chao was confident and slowly, and shouted into the microphone: "Zhang Xueyou, are you ready?" ”
The young Xueyou nodded: "Ready." ”
So Meng Chao said to his companion: "Then now SHOW_TIME!" ”
Under the leadership of Meng Chao, the two began to sing, in order to cooperate with the live performance on such a big stage tonight, Meng Chao modified the rhythm of "Kiss Goodbye" to make the rhythm a little faster, and then with the prelude, Meng Chao sang the first main song first.
"The past has become a cloud of smoke and dissipated in front of each other's eyes, and even after saying goodbye, I can't see that you have some grievances.
Give me a qiē you are just perfunctory, the more innocent you laugh I will love you and the wilder I will love! ”
At this time, the rhythm became faster and faster, the sound of saxophone and guitar was added, and after a burst of dynamic instrumental accompaniment, Zhang Xueyou continued to sing.
"There is always some understanding in an instant, and what has been said cannot be realized, and in a blink of an eye, I found that your face is no longer as strange as before, my world began to snow, so cold that I couldn't love one more day, so cold that even the hidden regret was so obvious......"
Immediately afterwards, both of them were in a state of passion, and with the accompaniment of "Kiss Goodbye" after the rhythm was modified, the audience was excited.
Then the two began to sing the chorus of "Kiss Goodbye" together!
"I kiss you goodbye on the street where no one is, let the wind idiot laugh I can't refuse, I kiss you goodbye in the crazy night, my heart is waiting to meet sadness."
At this time, Meng Chao shouted loudly: "COME_IN! Let's do it together. "The thoughts I want to give you are like a kite with a broken string, it can't fly into your world, and it can't warm your sight. I have seen a tragedy unfolded, there is no joy in the end of the play, I am still hiding in your dreams, there is always some understanding in an instant, what has been said cannot be realized, and in the blink ......of an eye I find that your face is no longer as strange as before."
Meng Chao and Zhang Xueyou sang hard, so that all the audience, including the ten judges and the host team, all of them were high, and everyone was moved by the tune of "Kiss Goodbye", and couldn't help but writhe with the dynamics of the instruments and music.
The decision to invite Zhang Xueyou came to mind after Meng Chao learned the rules of gang singing, he didn't want to invite the current music superstar, he felt that this approach was too bullying, so he wanted to support potential new stars in the music industry!
Among the four heavenly kings in the future, in the group of singers in the nineties, the two people he admired the most were Li Keqin and Zhang Xueyou!
Especially Zhang Xueyou, Meng Chao feels that he has a very persistent love for music, which makes his singing and interpretation level continue to increase, and finally is recognized as the second generation of singers, Meng Chao feels that he is simply a well-deserved god of songs!
Moreover, this "Kiss Goodbye" was originally the representative work of the future singer Zhang Xueyou, and the record with the name of "Kiss Goodbye" even created a super miracle in Chinese record sales!
Originally, Chinese songs were generally based on covers of foreigners' songs, with European and American songs covering those with a little level, and Japanese and Korean songs covering those with a slightly worse level, so where is our originality?
Undoubtedly, "Kiss Goodbye" is one of the most classic original songs in Chinese songs, and this song will also be covered by singers in Europe and the United States in the future, which is a relatively rare situation.
It can be said that the album "Kiss Goodbye" is the pinnacle of the entire Chinese music scene, so on such an important day as the night of the finals of the Youth Innovation Competition, in a program with a rating of nearly 20%, he decided to sing this "Kiss Goodbye", which belongs to the pinnacle of the Chinese music scene!
And when choosing to help sing the guests, Meng Chao naturally thought of Zhang Xueyou, the original singer of this song!
For this reason, it is natural to invite Zhang Xueyou to participate in the finals night of the Youth Innovation Competition as his gang singer, and now Zhang Xueyou, who has just started his singing career, is completely less than one-tenth of Meng Chao's popularity in terms of popularity, so Zhang Xueyou feels very incredible that Meng Chao invited him as a gang singer!
And the reason given by Meng Chao can also be simple: I have heard you sing, and I appreciate you very much!
Such an evaluation and reason is already a great encouragement and appreciation for the singer who is still in the state of a newcomer, so what other reason does Zhang Xueyou have for rejecting Meng Chao?
Especially after Zhang Xueyou rehearsed the song "Kiss Goodbye" with Meng Chao, Zhang Xueyou loved this song even more to a kind of fanaticism, if it wasn't for the fact that he had signed a contract with Polygram, Zhang Xueyou really wanted to sign a contract with Meng Chao's note of the century!
Of course, even if Zhang Xueyou is already a singer of Polygram, Meng Chao's appreciation for him will not be reduced!
Especially after contact, he found that Zhang Xueyou is indeed a good young man, the kind that can really be friends, first of all, Zhang Xueyou is very sincere, he is very persistent in music, he is very serious and hardworking, among the future male stars, Meng Chao feels that Zhang Xueyou is among the best in terms of acting skills and singing skills.
So Meng Chao finally decided that the copyright of this "Kiss Goodbye" would be sold to Polygram after the Youth Innovation Competition, and let Polygram be the title song of Zhang Xueyou's next album, Meng Chao knew that Zhang Xueyou would release an album "In the Dream of Last Night" two years later, and this album would be Zhang Xueyou's career Waterloo, and he indulged himself for a long time.
And Meng Chao's current plan is to help Zhang Xueyou rebound from the bottom when Zhang Xueyou sells "Kiss Goodbye" to Polygram and make his singing career to the next level!
