Chapter 140: I Am a Singer (Part II)
Chapter 140 "I Am a Singer" (II)
Under the illumination of the background lights, Hu Haiquan slowly walked to the center of the stage with a smile on his face and began to make opening remarks.
"Hello everyone, I'm singer Hae Quan"
"The first round of the third round of Liby laundry detergent "I am a singer" competition is about to start"
"The singers who have remained on this stage after four tests will continue to fight on the stage tonight, and the singers who fill the position are also eyeing each other and eager to try"
"The first singer to appear in the competition next is the fill-in singer who came in as a substitute," Hu Haiquan said with a line card on his face.
"This singer is special, I just learned his name" Hu Haiquan still has a surprised expression on his face, "because he is a relatively young singer from abroad, he is in his country, although he debuted not long ago, but his achievements are proud of the entire music world, and his strength has been unanimously recognized, known as the 'soprano prince', 'love song king'"
"There are also many friends in China who know this person, but most people should be more familiar with the role that this person plays in the TV series"
"'Jin Zhuoqiu' and 'Li Xuan', I don't know if the audience is familiar with these two names?"
"Wow!" When Hu Haiquan read out these two names, there was an uproar at the scene, and the people in front of the TV were all stunned, even for those who were a little older, these two names were very familiar, maybe they didn't know Li Erya, but they definitely knew these two characters.
Even in China, "Bread King Jin Zhuoqiu" and "The Moon Embracing the Sun" also have quite high ratings, which can be regarded as a stepping stone for Li Erya in the Chinese market.
At the same time, the news media also immediately reported the news, Li Erya actually came to China to participate in "I Am a Singer", which means that the showdown between the two countries, in recent years, 'Hallyu culture' has seized many Chinese markets. This time it's finally going to be a head-to-head showdown.
The news also quickly spread back to South Korea, and the domestic forum was also mixed, Li Erya's fans naturally supported it, and the anti-fans looked like they were watching a good show. If Li Erya dares to make a mistake, she will return to China and wait to be sanctioned.
Li Erya, who was behind the stage, took a deep breath and took the microphone from the staff after being notified to go on stage. Lear walked slowly to the center of the stage under the light.
The strong light behind him shrouded Li Erya in light and shadow, and the people in the audience couldn't see his face clearly, they could only see a tall figure standing on the stage wearing a handsome white casual suit, suddenly, the lights behind him turned off, and Li Erya's whole person appeared in front of the audience completely, with a faint smile on her face, and waved her hand to the audience. And deliberately glanced at a specific position in the audience, Krystal was indeed sitting there, but she was wearing a baseball cap, a mask, and a pair of sunglasses, and her whole face was almost completely covered, but Lier still recognized her at a glance.
At this time, the singers in the various lounges backstage were also blindfolded, except for Zhou Xiaolian, who had already met Li Erya, Li Erya was for Huang Qishan and Shabao Liang. Some strangers, they are not familiar with the Korean music scene, when they were on fire, the Korean wave culture had not yet begun to flow into China. Only the agents didn't react so much, but they knew about Li Erya, so they hurriedly popularized Li Erya's personal information to their singers.
"Is he going to sing his famous song?" Shabao Liang asked curiously: "You said that he sang a Chinese song in a talent show in South Korea and won the championship?" ”
"Well, it's Mitsura's 'First Time'" the agent replied.
Moments later, however, the subtitles gave the answer, and "Snowflake" appeared on the TV screen.
"Mika Nakajima's song? I didn't choose my own song. Instead, I chose someone else's song, and it was "Snow Flower", this song is not something that ordinary people can control" Chen Yufan was stunned and said, Li Erya was the first person to break the convention, just don't choose her own song, and also chose a song with such delicate emotional requirements.
"It seems that the person who came is not good, and at first glance, he is going to get off the horse from the beginning," Zhou Xiaorong said with a smile.
Li Erya didn't know what the other singers in the background thought of him, because he was brewing love at the moment, closed his eyes slightly, and the sourness in his heart came to his mind when he had just had a misunderstanding with Jessica.
The prelude of "Snow Flower" is neither long nor short, almost within a few tens of seconds after it sounds, Li Erya is about to speak, so it is necessary to adjust emotions quickly, fortunately, it has been exercised when she is an actor, and Li Erya has no big problems in this regard.
And the first half of Li Erya is sung in Chinese, and as soon as he opened his mouth, there was an uproar at the scene, because the pronunciation of the words in Chinese is really quite standard, for a Korean.
Ever-expanding shadows, juxtaposed on the red brick road
Walking side by side with you in the middle of the night
Always hold hands tightly, as long as you can be around
The beginning of the song "Snow Flower" is not strong, because it is all in low tones, as if narrating a thing, but this kind of suppressed singing often brews a strong emotional roar, isn't it calm before the storm?
The wind is getting cold, and it smells of winter
This street is also coming, and the season that can be close to you is coming
Entering the middle part of the song, Li Erya's singing voice has a significant change, and it is even more depressing, and the audience at the scene feels as if an invisible hand has pinched their hearts, very stuffy, breathless, and depressed, and extremely eager to release this feeling.
Now looking at the first snow petals of the year
This moment together
I want to give all my qiē to your dearest dearest
The first Gao Chao part came, but Li Erya did not change her suppressed singing voice and burst out, but instead transformed her deep voice into a crying voice, which continued to drive the audience's feelings, and many people closed their eyes, but their brows were furrowed, not because Li Erya's appearance was not good, but precisely because her expression was too good.
The audience is too engaged, plus it is their native pronunciation. The emotional resonance aroused was even stronger, and everyone at the scene was waiting, waiting for a moment for Li Erya's outburst. That is, their outburst.
Finally, when he came to the high chao part of the second half of the song, Li Erya also switched back to Korean pronunciation, but this is no longer important, and he successfully mobilized the audience's feelings. After ending with a cry, he directly ripped open his throat and perfectly showed his long-span vocal range.
When the emotion erupted at this moment, the audience at the scene also broke out, the applause was thunderous, and even many people stood up directly, and what is even more exaggerated is that some female viewers actually shed tears, and many people have heard the Korean version of "Snow Flower" sung by Park Hyo-sin. I also watched the TV series "I'm Sorry, I Love You" by the way.
Now that I hear Li Erya sing this song with such perfect feelings again, the sad scene in "I'm Sorry, I Love You" in my mind can't help but jump into my heart, and the tears can't stop staying.
Krystal is like this, when she watched this TV series with Jessica and Zheng's mother, she cried a lot, and now when she heard Li Erya reinterpret this classic song again, Krystal's tears couldn't stop flowing again.
A small memory in my heart
Stay with me forever
Finally, Liarya ends with a high-pitched cry. Then bowed slightly to the audience in front of the stage, spoke in fluent Chinese, and said, "Thank you, thank you"
Immediately thunderous applause. The audience stood up one after another, sending their own applause, music knows no country, they thanked Li Erya for bringing them an auditory feast, this is a kind of enjoyment, the greatest pleasure of listening to songs. It's about emotional edification, and Li'er has done it perfectly.
Coming down from the stage and to the edge of the stage, Li Erya raised her right hand again and made a very strange gesture, the index finger and thumb crossed the ice dragon, the thumb facing outwards and the index finger pointing inward, a bit like a gesture to count money, but no one would think that this gesture was this kind of meaning.
Someone soon reflected that this was a simple finger gesture of peace of mind, and Liu Zaishi did a similar gesture in "Runningman".
"Wow, Li Eryaxi, your performance just now was so successful, I stood under the stage and listened, I couldn't help but feel the urge to cry" Shen Mengchen gestured with exaggerated body language, and her eyes were indeed red.
"Really? Then it seems that my appearance just now should be good," Li Erya is very modest.
"It's not bad, you didn't look at the intoxicated expressions of the audience, this can't be described as good, it's a 100-point stage at all, with this table, there is hope for the first place" Shen Mengchen seemed more excited than Li Erya.
"I hope so, I can only say that I did enjoy the stage just now" Li Erya said with a smile, and as she spoke, the two came to the room where the singers rested after the competition, but now Li Erya was the only one alone, and it happened that the second group of singers was already performing on the stage.
The second to appear is the group Ha Quan, who sing a nostalgic song "Looking Back Again", and although it is difficult for Li Erya to appreciate the mood contained in the lyrics, he can hear something else through the guò melody and the singing voices of the two singers.
The competition continued, and singers continued to appear on the stage, and the lounge slowly became lively, and no one who came in looked at Li Erya curiously, because the singing skills that Li Erya showed on the stage just now are not like the crappy singing skills that teen idols have.
Not to mention anything else, at least in terms of strength, Li Erya has been recognized by the other 6 singers, no one will look down on him because he is from South Korea and is young, Li Erya's youth is indeed small, compared with these singers, his age is a bit too young, this situation is a bit similar to the situation when he participated in the "I Am a Singer" competition in South Korea the year before last, any one of them is an old man who has been in the music industry for more than 10 years.
After more than half an hour, everyone finished performing, and then all came to the front desk, lined up from left to right, in order of appearance, and then it was time to prepare to announce the results of this round.
Li Erya is still quite optimistic about his results, first of all, the program team invited him to come for the gimmick of the Sino-Korean music showdown, so it is impossible for him to be eliminated in a short period of time, this kind of audience voting is not open and transparent, it is too easy to move on the middle ranking, not to mention that Li Erya's performance in this game is already quite good.
The first one announced was the fourth place, the winner was Huang Qishan, and then the third place was announced was Zhou Xiaorong, the fifth place was Chen Ming, the second place was Yu Quan, and there were only the first, sixth and seventh left.
At this stage, Li Erya is not calm, shouldn't this be to let him take the first place? As soon as he had this idea in his mind, Hong Tao, who had been playing tricks, announced the noun "The winner of the first place in the first round of the third round of Liby laundry detergent "I am a singer" is, let's congratulate Li Erya!" ”
"WOW~" Everyone applauded, and Li Erya hugged everyone and said, "It's a little unbelievable......
Because of some excitement, so that his Chinese does not sound very smooth, he really didn't think that he could actually get the first place, it seems that there are still many people who recognize his strength, similarly, the previous two TV series also have a lot of credit, it can be said that most of the audience in the 20th generation must be inclined to Li Erya.
So if he takes one, it's acceptable, and no one can deny that the stage shown by Li Erya before is perfect, isn't it?
So far, Li Erya's debut in Chinese variety shows ended perfectly, and for this result, some people are destined to be happy, and some people are destined to be sad.
Li Erya on the Chinese side doesn't know, anyway, in South Korea, those anti-dinner people who are waiting to see jokes are going to be unhappy, but they still have reason to comfort themselves, didn't Li Erya win the first place in the first game of MBC TV's "I Am a Singer", what was the result? A round of tours.
So they kept a low profile now, and then ran out and laughed at Li Erya when the time came. (To be continued.) )
