Chapter 83: Reversal (3)
The final effect is even better than the program team imagined. After the show was broadcast, it can be seen from the many audience calls that Liu Qi's singing is deeply loved by the audience.
Liu Qi is the eighth player to appear on screen in this issue. Before him, three players had already passed the primary selection and qualified for the second round. Compared with the situation where only one or two contestants passed the primary selection in each of the first two phases, the quality of the contestants in the third phase has improved significantly, and the emotions of the students on the scene and the audience in front of the TV have gradually been raised.
The contestant who appeared in front of Liu Qi was Zhu Xuewen, a third-year boy from the Department of Chemistry, who won the first place in the top ten singers held by Tokyo University itself last year. His singing strength is also extraordinary, but compared to Liu Qi, it is a bit insufficient.
Although both passed the preliminary selection, the judges' comments were completely different.
――――――――――
For Zhu Xuewen, Ni Jun's comments were as harsh as ever.
"Zhu Xuewen, don't think that you have sung very well just because Teacher Zhu has passed, I clearly tell you that you are unqualified here. Although your song handling is not bad, the pitch is in place, and the pitch is okay, but you yourself should know how your high notes come out, which is when you cinch your neck and crow like a rooster. Can this also be called a high pitch? ”
"Let's practice hard when we go back. If the judges let you pass, I hope that the next time I listen to you sing, I won't scream so badly. ”
In this episode of the show, Ni Jun's comment style has converged a lot, and the biggest scale is controlled on ridicule and a little ridicule, and it won't work anymore. After all, it is only the mainland of China in 1991, and the players and the audience do not have such a high capacity to bear it, so there is no need to challenge their nerves.
In post-production, the program team will also cut out some redundant or inappropriate comments according to different situations. At the beginning, the program team required the three judges to evaluate each contestant in detail, and this benefit was reflected in the post-editing. The program team can make trade-offs on the judges' comments according to their needs, in order to meet the different requirements of each program.
Just like this issue, Ni Jun's comments seem to be a bit ridiculous about Zhu Xuewen, but Ni Jun did not erase his advantages, but only slightly exaggerated his shortcomings in soprano singing. This kind of comment is acceptable to both the scholars and the audience, but this kind of comment is absolutely unheard in the kind of serious competition in the past. And among the three judges, only Ni Jun will make such a style of evaluation, and the other two are more encouraging. The advice given by Ye Zi in this part of the judges is to be new and surprising in stability, and now it seems that this purpose has been initially achieved.
Zhu Xuewen's singing is highly evaluated by Brother Shui, he thinks that although Zhu Xuewen's singing is not very complete, it is unique in emotional expression and meets the requirements of this song.
Because of this, there was a short debate between Brother Shui and Ni Jun, which was not fierce.
――――――――――
"Xiaoshui, you let Zhu Xuewen pass, I respect your opinion. But I still want to emphasize that Zhu Xuewen's singing can't pass the test here. He should learn the correct way to sing, such blind shouting will not do his singing any good. Ni Jun was the first to attack.
Brother Shui is very polite and respects Ni Jun very much.
"Teacher Ni, I completely agree with your opinion, Zhu Xuewen does have a big problem in pronunciation. However, I always believe that pop songs should pay more attention to song expression and emotional processing, and the vocal method can be put in the second place and then considered. That's why I let him through. ”
"Without the right way, how can we express it better? This is like calligraphy, the pen is not strong enough, and the writer's emotions are abundant and rich, and if they cannot be reflected, it is useless. I don't deny the emphasis on emotional expression in pop songs, but that emphasis in no way means sacrificing the right way to sing. ”
Zhu Fengbo listened to their debate with relish, and then suddenly opened his mouth and said: "I also agree with this opinion." However, I think that if you combine the two organically, you can really sing a good song. Whether it's bel canto, folk songs, or popular songs, I think it's all applicable. ”
――――――――――
The director's shot is cut here. The three judges expressed their opinions, and the show did not give a correct conclusion. Of course, such a conclusion cannot actually be made, and it makes perfect sense to focus on any point. Mr. Zhu's combination of the two is of course the most ideal state, but it is also the most difficult.
The program team hopes to guide the audience to think on their own through such discussions, and it is also conducive to attracting Liu Qi, who will appear next.
――――――――――
Compared with Zhu Xuewen, Liu Qi's singing is quite reliable, and he is basically going in the direction of the combination of the two as Mr. Zhu said.
Liu Qi only sang a paragraph, and the three judges stopped his singing at the same time. When such a situation occurs, either the contestant's singing is too poor, and the judges directly deny it, or this singing is enough to impress the judges to pass the primary selection. Liu Qi is of course in the latter case.
Ni Jun was unusual, and directly rushed to the first one to give his own evaluation.
"Liu Qi, if I'm not mistaken, this should be the third time I've heard you sing. Although this time it was an unaccompanied cappella, and it was only sung for one part, it was the best impression I had on it. Just now, Mr. Zhu was still saying that a good singer should go to the road of perfect combination of singing skills and song processing, but I didn't expect to let us see such a ready-made model next. Good! Very good! I hope you will do better and better in this competition. ”
After speaking, Ni Jun immediately held up the sign that passed directly. As a judge, Ni Jun is worthy of his professional qualities, and he will never be unreasonable and deliberately harsh for the sake of harsh performance.
Of course, Zhu Fengbo and Brother Shui also passed directly.
――――――――――
This guy's singing is more mature. This is Ye Zi's evaluation of Liu Qi's singing.
Indeed, Liu Qi's performance this time is a step up from the final a few weeks ago. His current singing has gradually stripped off the traces of being too pretentious, and has become calm and relaxed. He is still singing the song "Cattle at Dusk" today, although Ye Zi complained in his heart that Liu Qi would only sing this song as soon as he arrived at the competition, but his singing has really improved. Compared with the finals, his singing was more calm, and he was no longer overly exaggerated and eager to express himself, but simply sang the melody, and the effect was obviously better.
Ye Zi heard a lot of his own song processing style from his singing. In this regard, Ye Zi also had a hint of relief in his amusement. Ye Zi can clearly feel that Liu Qi, a rival in love, has worked so hard in singing songs, and he must have the meaning of saying goodbye to himself again.
But it's definitely a good thing. In the future journey, whether it is in the classical music scene or the pop music world, it is impossible for Ye Zi to have an opponent who can always put pressure on him! This is much better than Ye Zi walking alone, and every progress of the opponent can inspire Ye Zi's greater enthusiasm. In the years to come, this will be an extremely precious treasure for Ye Zi.
What's more, this is Ye Zi's rival. The satisfaction that Ye Zi brings after defeating Liu Qi every time is far beyond that of defeating others.
――――――――――
Not to mention Ye Zi's emotion, the audience's impression of Liu Qi is very good. Originally, after the finals of "Shen Yuexiang" in Shencheng, Liu Qi already had a certain impression in the hearts of the audience in Shencheng, and after the broadcast of this episode, this impression has been strengthened a lot.
Among the audience calls that night, at least five out of ten mentioned Liu Qi and his singing, and all of them gave positive reviews.
Because of Liu Qi's excellent singing, and because of the performance of contestants like Zhu Xuewen, who have some shortcomings but also outstanding advantages, coupled with the careful arrangement and post-editing of the program team, the ratings of the third episode of the program rose a lot again, reaching 45.5%, ranking second among all programs that night. At its peak, the ratings were close to 60%.
The effect that the program team hopes to achieve is fully achieved.
――――――――――
On the "Pop Music Chart" broadcast live on Sunday night, Ye Zi's "The Sound of the Waves Remains" still ranked second and did not rush to the first place. The gap between it and the two-time winner of Principal Tan's golden song "Undying Love" is around 30 votes. This made Chen Zimo and Sun Yun both cry out for regret.
Zeng Chun's song "Sing If You Want to Sing" created a small miracle, and it rushed to sixth place in the second week on the list. This new song not only successfully surpassed the results that Ye Zi had just achieved a few weeks ago, but also had a lot of stamina, and it was very likely to break into the top three in a week or two.
Although "The Sound of the Waves" failed to rush to the championship, mainland songs have achieved unprecedented good results on this week's list. In addition to the second place in "The Sound of the Waves" and the sixth place in "Sing If You Want to Sing", Li Jie's red song "The Sun is the Reddest Chairman's Dearest" and Xie Xiaodong's "Every Time" both entered the top ten, ranking eighth and ninth respectively. This is the first time since the establishment of the list in 1987 that four mainland songs have ranked in the top 10 at the same time.
Thinking of the grand occasion of mainland singers this week, and then thinking about two more mainland songs that are about to enter the list next week, Chen Zimo's heart is extremely excited. Regardless of whether Zhang Lei's "How to Say Love" and Ye Zi's "Late Autumn" can directly rush to the top ten next week, it will be a great supplement to the momentum of mainland pop songs on the list. In Chen Zimo's view, these two capitals are rare good works, and it is far from being able to stop them from entering the top ten, and the top three can almost be steadily advanced, and it is not impossible to even win the championship.
The opportunity for mainland songs to reach the top is just around the corner.
Chen Zimo prayed silently in his heart.
