Chapter 028 Singing Finals
I only heard Yang Xuanpan continue: "I sincerely thank all the judges and guests for taking time out of their busy schedules to participate in the first 'Myth and Legend Singing Contest', and I will introduce the 9 musically talented judges who are here today......"
The audience cheered, you must know that stars like Xu Guanjie, Deng Lijun, and Xu Xiaofeng, who are so popular in the music industry, are usually rare. Now that they can see their idols up close, many people feel that these dozens of dollars in tickets are not unjustly spent.
Especially when Gu Weiqi was introduced, when he learned that the classic songs of "The Great Wall Never Falls", "Dream Chaser" and "This is My Life" that have been spread all over the streets and alleys recently were created by him, he couldn't help but exclaim, he is too young, and no one can believe that such a young person can create such classic songs.
And this is not surprising, what is surprising is that when Yang Yipan said, "Next, I would like to invite Mr. Gu Weiqi, chairman of 'Tian Lai Legend International Music Company' and 'Phoenix TV' and initiator of 'Myth and Legend Singing Contest', to speak", everyone was surprised to find that this young man had stepped onto ......the stage.
"Good evening, distinguished guests, judges, audience members and friends in front of the TV set."
Gu Weiqi waved his hand and said with a smile: "The reason why I launched this event is to discover more potential singers and promote the continuous development of Xiangjiang music. Okay, I won't say more nonsense, the rest of the time will be handed over to the contestants, I hope to show your best side to the audience and friends, thank you! ”
"Please choose Chen Huixian for the No. 1 contestant and sing the song 'Wind and Rain Together'!"
This song is the title song of the first Cantonese album released by Xiangjiang singer Xu Xiaofeng and released in 1978.
Soon Chen Huixian walked to the front desk from behind, Gu Weiqi looked at the other party carefully, and saw that she was wearing a white princess dress, her face was not powdered, and she was as pure as a lotus flower out of water. In fact, the other party is still a fifteen or sixteen-year-old Lori this year, but she has already fallen like a flower.
As the accompanying music sounded, Chen Huixian stood in front of the microphone, took a deep breath, and sang with all her heart.
"It seems to be laughter, it seems to be hardship~ How can you separate the false from the true~ There is no difference between grievances and hatred, love and hate~ There is darkness in the bright back~ The past is not remembered, the past is ignored~ There are many hardships and sweets in life......"
In just four or five minutes of a song, Chen Huixian quickly finished singing, took a step back and bowed deeply, waiting for the judges' evaluation.
Huang Zhan applauded and commented: "Yes, the little girl has good singing skills and has great potential." Xiaofeng, what do you think? ”
Xu Xiaofeng is a masterpiece of "Wind and Rain on the Same Road", Chen Huixian dared to sing this song in front of her, which shows that her singing skills are still okay, but there are still many shortcomings. But speaking of Huang Zhan, he is a senior, he has spoken, is it possible that he can still rap badly? Wouldn't that be tantamount to slapping him in the face?
"Well, that's good." Xu Xiaofeng nodded perfunctorily.
The original singers all said that they were good, what else did the other judges have to say? As a result, Chen Huixian basically won the unanimous praise of the judges. She was quickly scored, and the final result was a comprehensive score of 85 points, out of 90, which is already quite good.
Even Gu Weiqi gave her a score of 9.5, but after the score, he bluntly commented: "'Little Princess', your singing skills are good." It's a pity that you are too young to choose to sing this song, because your life experience is not enough for you to interpret the essence of this song. Maybe you can try this song......" As he spoke, he took out a pen and paper from his pocket and wrote a song on it.
Just when Gu Weiqi was writing the song, Xiao Sheng, the person in charge of the program, hurriedly gestured to the director to insert the advertisement. And Chen Huixian's heart was raised at that time, and she didn't know what this judge meant.
Soon, the song "I Like You" (Deng Ziqi version) was written by Gu Weiqi, and he instructed someone to give it to Chen Huixian, and reminded: "There is still a little princess, that is, your stage style is too rigid." Relax, don't have any pressure, this song 'Like You' was created by me according to your age, singing skills and timbre, you can sing it again and try it. ”
"Like you?"
"Tailor-made?"
"That's too fast, isn't it?"
Everyone present, including the eight judges, was secretly surprised. Is it grandstanding? Or is it really that powerful? Everyone was curious, but Gu Weiqi didn't care about this, and after writing it, he beckoned, and let people show it to Chen Huixian and the accompanists.
Five minutes later, the accompaniment of "I like you" sounded, and Chen Huixian sang along with it.
"The drizzle brings wind and damp to the dusk street~ Erase the rain and look up with your eyes for no reason~ Look at the lonely evening light~ It's the sad memory~ Countless thoughts in my heart again~ The laughter of the past moment is still on my face~ I hope you can know at this moment~ It's my heartfelt voice~ I like you~ Those eyes are moving~ The laughter is more charming......"
This time, Chen Huixian is much more vivid, and this song is just right for her. When she finished singing, the judges were all moved, and the audience erupted in thunderous applause and strongly demanded to do it again.
The judges were moved because the song was excellent both in terms of lyrics and arrangement. But Gu Weiqi was able to create such a classic song for Chen Huixian in such a short period of time, especially a song suitable for the other party to sing, this kind of skill in creating songs is really amazing.
The audience asked to do it again, naturally because Chen Huixian sang well. In fact, this song was originally a classic of the Band Bion, and it was widely sung, and many people still liked it in the 21st century. Now let Chen Huixian sing it, which naturally gives people a refreshing and beautiful feeling.
The little girl's face flushed excitedly, and she looked up at the judges who helped her write the song, just as Gu Weiqi also looked at the shadow on the stage, and unexpectedly, the eyes of the two people collided in the air. The corners of the latter's mouth hooked up an uninhibited smile, blinked Danfeng's eyes, the former felt as if she was discharging at her, she was so ashamed that she quickly lowered her head, bowed again, and turned around to go behind the scenes, but her heart was pounding.
"Next, I invite Wu Ji, the No. 2 contestant, to sing the song 'The Great Wall Will Never Fall'."
Soon, a young boy in his twenties, wearing a pair of jeans, a floral shirt, long hair, and a young man on his face, came to the stage from behind the scenes, and sang "The Great Wall will never fall" as the music sounded. I have to say that although this person is not very old, his singing skills are very good.
When the song "The Great Wall Never Falls" was sung, Gu Weiqi applauded and smiled: "Yes, yes, the young man has a very wide vocal range and is very malleable, but there are still certain deficiencies in singing skills." Brother Xu, Miss Deng, what do you think? ”
Deng Lijun and Xu Guanjie glanced at each other, nodded and said, "Indeed, the young man's voice is very distinctive and very malleable. ”
Later, after Huang Zhan and several other judges made a little comment, they scored Wu Ji, and the overall score reached 83 points, only 2 points lower than Chen Huixian.
The next four contestants are called Xue Ke, Chen Jiale, Zhou Chen, Zhang Xuan, and the songs that these four choose to sing are "The Great Wall Never Falls" in addition to "Dream Chaser", which is all Gu Weiqi's song. Seeing that the other judges were quite speechless, it was really his two songs that were too popular during this time.
Although none of them are the bulls in history that Gu Weiqi is familiar with. However, several people are also very good at singing. In particular, Xue Ke's comprehensive score reached 85 points, which was on par with Chen Huixian. The lowest of the others scored 80 points, and the gap is not big, which shows the high quality of the contestants.
"Next, I invite the No. 7 contestant, Mei Yanfang, to sing the song 'Dream Chaser'."
Gu Weiqi's spirits perked up, and he saw that the "Queen of Change" at this time was still a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl. Wearing a malt yellow shirt with simple jeans, she especially highlights her slender waist and slender legs, not like a Lori who is not yet eighteen years old, and her height is 1.65 meters.
From performing on stage at the age of 4 and a half, experiencing the ups and downs of the "singer", to the unparalleled variety of songs, she has been standing for 20 years - she is Anita Mui. the "bad girl" who used to have "flaming red lips"; the "demon girl" who is "drunk in a dream"; "Like a flower" who has been infatuated all her life, in many moments, it is not clear which one is the real her, maybe these are the real her.
Behind her legend, she has clearly witnessed the rise and fall of the Xiangjiang performing arts industry. She sang all the way, singing through the era of Deng Lijun, her own era, and the era of Wang Fei...... That's how she sang to her peak.
She, Zhou Yanfa and Zhang Manyu created a golden age of Xiangjiang performing arts, and also created a dreamy fairy tale about Xiangjiang. She has given countless people passion and dreams with her singing voice and achievements; She also used her own actions to interpret and set an example of the unique tenacity and self-improvement of Xiangjiang people - this is the case at the age of 4 and a half, and she is the same when she first enters the music scene; The same is true of the floods in East China; Even when she was terminally ill, she never gave up.
For such a woman with a unique personality, Gu Weiqi still respects her very much, she is like a strange flower independent of the top of the mountain, proud and independent, full of unyielding spirit to fate.
Just as Gu Weiqi looked at her, she began to sing as she remembered the accompanying music.
"Let youth blow your long hair~ Let it pull your dreams~ Unconsciously the history of this city~ I have remembered your smile~ The blue sky in the red heart~ It is the beginning of life~ You who never sleep overnight in the spring rain~ The days when you slept alone~ Let the delicate flowers of youth ~ Bloom the hidden red ......"
