Chapter 417: The Princess (Bi)
Yu Yongzhen said that today's Zhao Yuanxi is no longer the Zhao Yuanxi he first saw, which is not false at all, it is simply a thousand miles in a day.
Even Zhao Yuanxi thinks that he has made great progress in singing, if it was Zhao Yuanxi who heard Yu Yongzhen instigating him to challenge the three-section high note, he didn't have to think about it, and now Zhao Yuanxi is full of confidence.
Since listening to the advice of Mr. Liu Xiao, a leading figure in the domestic music industry, Zhao Yuanxi has tried to integrate bel canto singing and pop singing, and has a unique understanding of treble resonance, and gradually explored a suitable way to express his voice.
Zhao Yuanxi adjusted his breathing and opened his mouth to sing, a few lyrics are on the entire HighC lyrics It is not difficult for him, the focus is on the sentence "My princess, I want to occupy your beauty" pointed out by Yu Yongzhen. Not only is the whole sentence high-pitched, but the three words "your beauty" will soar continuously, from C3 to D3.
"The pain is too beautiful, no matter how humble it is, I want to taste the taste of broken bones; You are so beautiful, even if you are speechless, I want to isolate the world from the stone pile. My princess, I will take possession of your—of beauty. ”
It was like a high-pitched voice of a roller coaster rushing straight up, and the three trebles were completed in one go, and Zhao Yuanxi directly used his real voice to reach D3.
"Perfect." Yu Yongzhen stood up and applauded, "It's perfect, Yuanxi, I think you still have the strength to continue to try to hit the high notes." ”
Zhao Yuanxi was completely dumbfounded, waved his hand again and again, and sighed: "Director Yu, you just kill me." The treble D is already my limit. ”
Yu Yongzhen clasped his hands to his chest and smiled: "True sound, this may be your limit, but you can try to break through with a semi-false voice." ”
"Half-falsetto?" Zhao Yuanxi was a little moved.
The top of the full true voice to the treble D is indeed the limit of Zhao Yuanxi. However, it is not impossible to challenge the higher E3 and F3 with skillful semi-falsetto techniques, which involves the skill of singing.
"Yes, starting with B2, with a semi-falsetto, I'm sure you can do it." Yu Yongzhen nodded firmly.
People who have not undergone professional vocal training sing completely with their voices, while professional singers sing with breath, and the popular singing method in South Korea is half breath and half voice, among which JYP Park Jin Young is a typical representative.
When Zhao Yuanxi first came to South Korea to accept Yu Yongzhen's teaching, it was also a popular Korean half-breath and half-voice singing method, and after getting the advice of Mr. Liu Xi, he completely abandoned the previous singing mode and changed to pure breath singing. The breathing pattern has also gradually shifted from chest-abdominal mixed breathing to abdominal breathing. Purity and smoothness of the breath are guaranteed.
It can be said that after uninterrupted tempering, Zhao Yuanxi's singing skills have reached a new height, not only the performance of the treble area is becoming more and more perfect, but the whole singing method and skills are more perfect. The overall strength has been qualitatively improved.
And Yu Yongzhen, as a vocal director, is keenly aware of Zhao Yuanxi's surprising progress. That's why he was constantly being strict. Use a pressing way to help him break through.
"The part with lyrics is only sung to d3, and then the part without lyrics, relatively speaking. No lyrics are more conducive to breath stretching, challenge E3, F3 from #D3, I'm sure you can do it. Yu Yongzhen clapped his hands and encouraged.
Zhao Yuanxi raised his head and muttered a mouthful of mineral water, "Then I'll try." ”
Zhao Yuanxi rarely used semi-falsetto skills in his past singing, because there was no need for this, his timbre in the midrange area was very rendering, and the tune of the songs he wrote for himself was basically in the middle range, rarely involving the treble area, so naturally there was no need to use semi-falsetto.
It was this song "Princess", which he used as the title song of the second Chinese album, and the tune was not written too high, but was raised two keys at the request of Yu Yongzhen, so that the whole song almost dangled in the high register.
"You can try to control the strength of the breath and cut to the transposition." Zhao Yuanxi tried several times, but the results were unsatisfactory, and Yu Yongzhen pointed out.
Zhao Yuanxi nodded thoughtfully and raised his hand, "Do it again." At this time, he was fully engaged in the fanaticism of challenging himself, and he didn't care about complaining and resting.
"My princess, I'm going to take over you—the beauty—"
After the word "beauty", Zhao Yuanxi weakened his breath slightly, and then used the resonance of the head cavity to turn the tone lightly, and the treble sound was like a roller coaster rising in circles, climbing from #D3 to E3 and then to F3.
Six trebles, perfectly achieved.
"Okay." Yu Yongzhen closed his eyes with pleasure, and his palms waved with Zhao Yuanxi's high voice until his voice was faintly audible, and he cheered heavily.
The musicians in the studio applauded, and Zhao Yuanxi's skill, mellow breath and mellow voice were breathtaking.
Zhao Yuanxi waved his hand weakly, as if he was in prostration, and after the third treble, he turned into a three-section treble and soared again, almost suffocating himself to death.
After a short break, the official album recording work began, before recording the Chinese title song first, but the order of album release must be the Korean version first. The domestic record industry does not make money at all, singers rely on commercial performances and concerts to make money, and releasing albums in China is nothing more than losing money and making money, and only by ensuring the profitability of the Korean market can the losses of domestic albums be hedged.
There was a small episode when recording the Korean album, and Zhao Yuanxi could not perfectly reach the level of the Chinese version of the three-paragraph treble after singing it several times, and later realized that it was the reason for the Korean lyrics.
The Chinese version of "Your Beauty" is a large opening tone, which is conducive to the relaxation of the breath, and after changing to Korean lyrics, this sentence has become a closed accent, no wonder how Zhao Yuanxi sings how awkward.
"Princess" is of course the title song of Zhao Yuanxi's Korean version of the mini second album, in which "ItsLove" and "Twenty-four Hours Are Not Enough" written by him himself are also involved in the song as the second and third main songs.
This album is Zhao Yuanxi's self-esteem.
It took a whole day to complete the recording of the Korean version of the mini second album, and the next step was to shoot the MV for the title track. The script of the MV was written by Zhao Yuanxi himself, and the shooting location was selected in a club in Apguting, which is very appropriate for the artistic conception of the lyrics, his MV usually unfolds with a plot, and many fans say that watching the MV is more interesting than Live, and Zhao Yuanxi will of course implement the excitement to the end.
The heroine is also hand-picked by Zhao Yuanxi, and the selection is Li Yanxi, one of the three beauties of S.M Company who takes the film and television route.
Zhao Yuanxi has not considered Lin Yun'er, from his first MV Lin Yun'er is his queen heroine, but this "Princess" Zhao Yuanxi thinks that Lee Yeon-hee is more suitable than Lin Yun'er.
Zhao Yuanxi and Lee Yeon-hee have only met a few times, almost all of them are in the KangTa practice room, and they are deeply impressed by Lee Yeon-hee's beautiful dancing and soft figure, and Lee Yeon-hee is born in 88 years, which is far more mature and feminine than Lin Yun'er, who was born in 90.
Charm, the ultimate charm that makes people feel excited, this is the quality of the heroine that Zhao Yuanxi needs.
Lee Yeon-hee is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate. (To be continued......)
