Chapter 79: The Godfather of Hua Guofeng

"South Wind, Open a New Trend of Music, Create a Classical Oriental ......"

The impact of the song "Orchid Pavilion Prologue" has already amazed all the judges and audiences present on the day of the competition, but after a night of fermentation, this song began to set off a musical storm across China.

"Huaguo style, that is, adding some ancient Chinese allusions to the song as the creative background, using modern music to sing the classical taste, singing in a variety of ways. The style of music is biased towards traditional oriental performances, and some oriental instruments are added, and the tone of the song is tactful and looping, which has a traditional oriental beauty. ”

"Southern Weekly" focused on the song "Orchid Pavilion Preface" on the front page headline of the entertainment version.

"Although the concept of Huaguo style is the latest proposed by Nanfeng, this kind of song has appeared in the history of Chinese music, and ancient poetry works such as "Water Tune Song Head" and "Nian Nujiao Chibi Nostalgia" have been composed with modern tunes, bringing different music enjoyment to music lovers with the cooperation of ancient and modern......

In China, there are many ancient poems that are favored by music creators, and modern music scores are composed and reinterpreted, among which "Water Tune Song Head" and "Nian Nujiao Chibi Nostalgia" are more representative, and the other works have a relatively small impact, so Huaguofeng songs are not original to Nanfeng in Huaguo, but this kind of Huaguofeng songs can only be called classical Huaguofeng songs!

"But the Chinese style songs before the south wind are still just an approximate form of Chinese style, an attempt to explore nostalgia! Nanfeng's work "Orchid Pavilion Preface" is a watershed between the pure Chinese style of modern pop music and the classical Chinese style! Because it fully complies with the "three ancient and three new" standards. Especially in the creation of lyrics, Nanfeng set a standard with this song, Huaguofeng style pays attention to the conciseness of the language, the conciseness and the use of context, with the use of some poems, through some rhetorical devices in Chinese, such as metaphors, borrowing, etc., to express the artistic conception of the song......"

Compared with the definition given by Nanfeng, Southern Weekly expands the concept of "Huaguo Feng" again, and includes the original parts such as "Water Tune Song Head" and "Nian Nujiao Chibi Nostalgia" and other songs, calling it classical Chinese style, but defines the concept of Chinese style proposed by Nanfeng as the pure Chinese style of modern pop music.

"The so-called three ancient and three new, that is, ancient words, ancient culture, ancient melody, new singing, new arrangement, and new concept. The Chinese style is a unique Chinese music that combines the three ancient and the new. The lyrics have the connotation of Chinese culture, using new singing methods and arrangement techniques to set off the atmosphere of the song, and the song uses the combination of nostalgic Chinese background and rhythm to produce subtle, melancholy, elegant, light and other song styles. Huaguo style is divided into two kinds: pure Chinese style and near Chinese national style, pure Chinese style is a song that meets the above six conditions, such as Nanfeng's "Orchid Pavilion Preface"; Near-Chinese style is a song that cannot meet certain conditions and is very close to pure Chinese style, such as Anya's "Pear Blossom Fragrance" ......"

"Southern Weekly" is more detailed in its division of Hua Guofeng than the proposer of Nanfeng, Nanfeng thought that "Pear Blossom Fragrance" was not a pure Huaguo style work during the competition, and "Southern Weekly" simply unified this kind of song and gave a new term, near Chinese national style music!

I have to say that "Southern Weekly" is a professional in the traditional paper media, and the definition and analysis of the concept of "Hua Guofeng" is not comparable to Nanfeng, a layman who relies entirely on subjective assumptions, even Nanfeng, who put forward the concept of Hua Guofeng, has to nod his head and praise after reading the redefinition of "Southern Weekly".

In the creation of the song "Orchid Pavilion Preface", Nanfeng borrowed the famous work of the book saint Wang Xizhi, and used modern pop music combined with classical oriental charm and beauty, revealing a kind of vicissitudes and helplessness in the delicate. The song must understand the background connotation of the lyrics and listen to the artistic conception in it, in order to hear the beauty of the song......"

"It's hard to be busy, and it's easy to expand the thousand-year-old monument, but it's difficult to expand your beauty; The human goose Nanfei turned around and glanced at you with tears. ”

"The beauty of the south wind's words and sentences is amazing! With the line of calligraphy, the line of calligraphy is flowing smoothly. Describe the delicate ancient woman pushing the door out of the door under the moon and moving her footsteps, and then describe the woman's peerless beauty that no one can imitate, the most metaphorical Wang Xizhi's era of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, it is the time when the royal family moved south to the south, leaving the beauty in the north ......"

"Nanfeng created this song because of the theme of childhood sweethearts, and it is unknown whether Wang Xizhi really had such a childhood sweetheart who was left in the north in history, but Nanfeng used his music to depict such a scene for everyone......"

Southern Weekly's commentary on the song "Orchid Pavilion Preface" has entered the stage of word by word, and the previous way of commenting on this song "Orchid Pavilion Preface" can no longer fully present the classics of this song, and the editors of "Southern Weekly" are analyzing every lyric of "Orchid Pavilion Preface" in the same way as analyzing textbook Chinese and Chinese texts.

As a music creator, you can not only stay on the emotional basis of modern people, but actively work hard to learn history, learn Chinese culture, and dig out our national quintessence one by one, which is manifested in the songs of mass communication, which is a very meaningful direction, it can be said that Nanfeng is the originator of pure pop music Huaguofeng, and this "Lanting Preface" is also more used as a model and has become a textbook for Chinese music creators. Nanfeng is a great musical poet, a spirit who wanders between notes and words......"

Of course, the title of the father of modern pure pop music looks very loud, but it doesn't really represent anything.

"Everyone has a Chinese style in their hearts. It gives people a feeling: when they hear the music, they will associate Chinese characteristics, Chinese elements, and Chinese flavors. These things touched us deeply. We love and like, like the song "mixed" with Peking Opera, Huangmei Opera, suona, erhu, pipa, flute Chinese style. Yesterday, they seemed to have just left us; When I woke up this morning, I felt like I was standing beside us......"

"I look forward to Nanfeng bringing us more classic Chinese style songs in the future, and I also hope that more creators like Nanfeng will emerge in the Chinese music scene, who have the courage to innovate and explore, and can bring more excellent music works to everyone......

Southern Weekly's report is different from other newspapers, although the report is only typeset on the front page of the entertainment section of Southern Weekly, not the front page of the main page, but as the media of official newspapers such as People's Daily and Xinhua Daily, which are second only to China, Southern Weekly's influence in reality is far beyond that of online media.

If Nanfeng was just a rookie singer with great influence on the Internet before, and he didn't have much background, then as soon as the report of "Southern Weekly" came out, Nanfeng was no longer a simple rookie singer, at least he already had a certain say in the music world, and he was no longer a newcomer who was soft-spoken.

Major media outlets have also reprinted Southern Weekly's reports, or written some similar reports themselves, and with the joint promotion of many media, Nanfeng has truly become a smash hit. In the Chinese music scene, what Nanfeng lacks now is just a few weighty awards, when he wins some music awards with enough weight, and then releases a few albums to precipitate, he is a well-deserved king singer in the Chinese music scene. Although he can't be called a king singer now, this does not prevent the media from giving Nanfeng the title of Little Heavenly King.

The real media is still so crazy because of the song "Orchid Pavilion Preface", there is no need to say much on the Internet, on Nanfeng's tribal pavilion, the fans' messages have almost worshiped Nanfeng as a god, and the first batch of loyal fans of Nanfeng has gradually begun to form. In fact, after "Long Time No See", Nanfeng has formed a group of loyal fans, but after this song, the number of loyal fans has expanded again, and a group has really formed.

People who like to dive on the Internet will always account for the vast majority, and although the tribal pavilion message of the south wind is lively, it is small compared to the number of downloads of "Orchid Pavilion Preface".

From the night when "Orchid Pavilion Preface" was uploaded to the Chinese music library, to the next day, in less than 24 hours, this "Orchid Pavilion Preface" has been downloaded more than 6 million times, and it has reached the top ten of the Chinese music list in just one point. In less than forty-eight hours, this song has already ranked second on the Chinese Music Billboard with 13 million downloads, and the song in the second place in the championship is none other than Nanfeng's "Long Time No See", which has been downloaded 17 million times in just one week, but it is only a matter of time before "Orchid Pavilion Preface" surpasses the song "Long Time No See".

In terms of the quality of music, "Orchid Pavilion Preface" is not better than "Long Time No See", and even inferior in touching, but just like "Southern Weekly" reported, every Huaguo person has their own Chinese style in their minds, and when they hear the music, they will associate Chinese characteristics, Chinese elements, and Chinese flavors, and these are more powerful than any emotional impressions of the Chinese, because these are engraved in everyone's bones.

The rise of Chinese style music is extremely strong!

(I looked up a lot of information in this chapter, including a review of the song, an explanation of the concept of Chinese style, a lot of time was wasted, and there was a second update in the evening.) )
