Chapter 61: Preparation for the Four Schools Gala (5)
The face of the child in June, in the dark night sky, the wind howled, the clouds were sinking like ink, the dark clouds were constantly churning under the drive of the wind, and the light of the clouds from time to time showed that it would be a night of thunderstorms.
In the bar, everyone has long since dispersed, and only Zhang Yang is still lying on the bar in the huge business hall, holding a pencil and staring at the paper on the table in a daze, judging from his expression, he should be pondering something.
"Woo~"
Outside the window, the wind was blowing, whistling through the glass, making a piercing whine, startled by the strange sound, Zhang Yang came back from his contemplation, played with the pencil in his hand, and sighed heavily at the paper on the table.
This is a work review form given by Principal Fang, which belongs to one of the characteristics of this era, and it is necessary to fill in some personal information and the content of the work, and there will be reviewers to review the content at that time, and make sure that there is no "unstable" and "immoral" content in the work before it can be put on the stage.
There was nothing wrong with the front, but when it came to the title of the song, Zhang Yang was stuck.
Adapting to the requirements of the system is necessary, but it is not so easy to figure out the preferences of the audience.
The so-called radish and cabbage have their own love, and the type of song that everyone likes is different, some people like lyrical songs, some people like sad songs, no matter what kind of song Zhang Yang chooses, it is difficult to meet everyone's taste.
For this reason, he also asked Jin Li and others, and the answers he got were not the same, Jin Li meant that from his own point of view, he sang which type he was good at, first highlighted himself, and then considered the audience.
The old wolf's opinion is to choose love songs or sad songs, first of all, the audience at the scene is college students, these two emotions they can often touch, it is easy to resonate, and secondly, these two music types are the current mainstream music types, which are easier for the public to accept.
As for Gao Xiaosong, he pursed his lips and lightly threw out a sentence: It sounds good, it doesn't matter what type he is.
What the three of them said makes sense, but there are two sides to everything, and there are big or small drawbacks behind these three suggestions, Zhang Yang personally prefers Gao Xiaosong's suggestion, after all, the essence of music is pleasing to the ear, he thinks, as long as it is good music, no matter who or what type, everyone should like it.
"Let's listen to Komatsu~"
After pondering for a long time, Zhang Yang still chose to start from the work itself and pick two high-quality works, as for whether the audience will accept it or not, we will talk about it when the time comes.
Thinking about the truth, Zhang Yang no longer hesitated, and wrote in the title of the song: "She Said".
This time there are two shows, so you need to prepare two songs, this "She Said" is one of them, the lyrics and composition of the song are jointly completed by Sun Yanzi and JJ, included in JJ's 2010 "She Said" album, the melody of the whole song is smooth, the lyrics are sad, it is a song that is both mainstream and suitable for public singing.
The second song, the song he chose is "Wandering" by Taiwanese female wandering singer Banai, this classic song has been covered N versions, but no matter how it is covered, who covers it, Zhang Yang's favorite and admired version is the original song Banai, as a wandering singer, Banai is the only singer who can perfectly interpret the mood of the song, which other singers have not been able to do.
Quickly filled in the lyrics of the two songs, Zhang Yang picked up the audit form, and let out a long breath.
These two are mainstream and high-quality works, and Zhang Yang believes that as long as there are no accidents, these two songs will be popular.
After that, there was nothing serious, after the song was approved, Zhang Yang and the heads of each school held a meeting again, mainly to discuss the use of these instruments and the rehearsal arrangements.
This time Zhang Yang didn't get involved, he had already thought about it, and he would never go to the group rehearsal, there were a total of 22 programs in the whole party, of which 15 were singing programs, there were so many musical instruments, and it would take at least more than an hour to take a turn, which was too wasteful of time.
"I and the three resident singers of the bar will not participate in this rehearsal~"
Zhang Yang had already decided to go to the rehearsal of the musical instrument shop, and as soon as the words came out, the heads of the schools who were arguing endlessly looked at Zhang Yang.
"You're ......"
"It's a waste of time to rehearse like this~I'll go to the instrument shop to rehearse~"
He understood what the heads of the schools meant, and they were secretly happy in their hearts, and the flamboyant withdrawal meant giving up the use of these instruments, and the free time could be used for the rehearsals of the students of each school, which was a good thing for them.
"No problem~ It's just that the quality of the show is ......"
While agreeing happily, the heads of the schools are very worried about the quality of the program, which is not only related to the individual, but also to the face of the four schools.
Their worries are completely a joke in Zhang Yang's eyes, to put it mildly, Jin Li and others are now almost half professional singers, not to mention anything else, just talking about stage experience has thrown this group of immature students 108,000 miles away, this questioning is simply a big knife in front of Guan Gongmen.
"Guys~That's what we're doing~~"
Zhang Yang picked at his nails, and a smile rose at the corner of his mouth, like a mockery and a reminder.
"Aha~ That's good, that's good~ That's, let's continue to discuss ~~"
The leaders also realized that they had asked a stupid question, and one by one they started to change the topic in a hurry, and Zhang Yang didn't care, so he crooked in his chair and began to pretend to sleep.
The morning passed in a boring meeting, and a group of people made arrangements about the use of instruments and rehearsal times.
Because these instruments were expensive and not suitable for frequent transportation, the rehearsal venue was tentatively set at Tsinghua University, and the rehearsal time was also coordinated: seven days a week, each of the four schools rehearsed one day, the time was set at 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., and the remaining three days were rehearsed collectively, that is, the time was almost evenly divided.
Of course, it is said that it is average, but in fact, Tsinghua still takes advantage of it, after all, the instrument is in its own university, and after other people's rehearsals, it is up to the school to decide how to use it.
It doesn't matter how the school arranges him, after paying a sponsorship fee of 1,000 yuan, Zhang Yang began to plan the next practice and rehearsal, at this time there are less than two weeks before the Dragon Boat Festival, and he needs to hurry up and practice.
If you want to sing a song well, a lot of practice is a must, Jin Li and others obviously understand this, and after school at noon that day, everyone gathered in the bar, ready to use the lunch break to perfect their respective works.
