Chapter 747 "The Sunshine Is Always After the Wind and Rain" that swept the major lists
Wu Zhilong's performance this morning was a cover of the singer's classic love song "Wings". Wu Zhilong's voice is a bit of a singer's character, with a touch of vicissitudes, and there is a natural hoarseness in it, which sounds very similar to a singer at first glance. Wu Zhilong is also deliberately imitating the singer to sing, so his singing feeling is very pleasing and will be accepted by most audiences. He won a lot of audience votes by imitating the singer this morning, and 1,358 of the 1,500 audience judges voted for him, which was the third highest among all the 25 singers who performed in the first group, which shows how popular his singers are. And he has a very strong voice, a lot of voice, and he has an advantage in singing in this kind of unplugged studio.
However, in the ears of professional judges, Wu Zhilong's singing is not so pleasing. First of all, to participate in this kind of grassroots draft competition in an imitative way, abandoning its own characteristics, making people feel unsightly, which made many professional judges deny Wu Zhilong's performance at first glance. In addition, Wu Zhilong's five-tone insufficiency has not been completely eradicated, although he is working hard to correct his intonation, but the most professional poisonous ear can still hear that he is born with incompleteness of five tones.
Du Xinghe heard Wu Zhilong's incomplete five tones at the Fuwan Young Singer Championship last time, and this time he listened to it again, Wu Zhilong's problem still hasn't changed much. Especially in the song "Wings", which is familiar to everyone and familiar with every pitch, Wu Zhilong's small problem is more obvious. If you sing an original song that no one has ever heard before. This problem should not be magnified as it is now.
Wu Zhilong sang this song "Wings", and only got 660 points from the 500 professional judges, which greatly lowered his total score, and he finally only got 2018 points out of 3000 points, and is currently ranked 9th. This ranking is not secure, he is in the middle of the top 25, but if the singers in the back are better prepared, he is likely to be squeezed out of the top 48.
Not only that, Wu Zhilong sang this song "Wings", which actually gave the professional judges a not so good first impression score. This can be seen from the non-passing scores scored by the professional judges. 500 professional judges. Everyone has the right to score 3 points, and the total score is 1500 points like the audience review, of which 60 points need to get 900 points out of 1500 points to achieve a passing score. Wu Zhilong's first song only scored 660 points in the professional judges, and only 44 points when converted into a 100-point system. At a glance, it is clear what his impression of these professional judges is.
Although Wu Zhilong got a respectable 1358 points from the audience judge. Converted to a percentage scale, it is 90.5 points. It can be said that it has won a good audience. But what you need to know is that these viewers only recorded this one, and they will be replaced next time. And the judging will not change. So win the favor of the live audience in this kind of competition. It's not as practical as winning the favor of the judges.
Of course, if you want to take a long-term view, winning the favor of the audience is still the first priority. In such a competition, singers with lofty ambitions must first consider the audience's love for Cheng Dù, because the further the competition goes, the more important the audience's support will be. The professional judging only plays a decisive role in the first two rounds of 100 into 48 and 48 into 24. When it comes to 24 and 20, the game will be broadcast live, and the support of the audience outside the venue will directly determine whether the singer can stay on this stage. So to win the favor of the audience from the beginning is also a strategy.
Wu Zhilong did adopt such a strategy, with a huge music team behind him to support him, Wu Zhilong naturally knew what his advantages and disadvantages were, and the team of the era was after careful consideration, and after winning Wu Zhilong's consent, they chose such a risky path for Wu Zhilong.
In the morning competition, Wu Zhilong scored high in the audience and got a low score in the judges, which was completely in the expectations of the era team and Wu Zhilong. Even, when he sang "Wings", some of the notes were deliberately sung a little out of the point, but they were not very clever, and ordinary people couldn't hear it, even if they heard it, they would feel that he was moved by feelings, and he was completely immersed in the feelings, so he made such a performance. But as soon as the professional judges heard it, they knew that he was caused by the incomplete pentatonic sound. This will give a huge sensory gap between the audience review and the professional review, and make the scoring of the two parties very different. And he just needs to keep the high score on the side of the audience judges.
Of course, Wu Zhilong and the team of the era know that the audience judges present today will not be there when the next 48 into 24 will not be there, what they care about is not the 1,500 audience judges on the scene today, but the hundreds of millions of viewers who will see him in front of the TV in the future.
The top 100 battles of "Sound of China" and the one-on-one duel of 48 into 24 are all produced and broadcast in the form of video, and the team of the era considers that when it is broadcast in the future, the senses of the audience in front of the TV will be similar to the audience evaluation on the spot, and Wu Zhilong's cover of the song of the king of songs will get a preconceived favor from the audience in front of the TV, and they will also think that Wu Zhilong sings very well. But when the audience in front of the TV sees that the professional judges give Wu Zhilong such a low score, they will definitely have the same reaction as the audience judges, that is, they are unhappy for Wu Zhilong. People always have a desire to break authority, especially the common people in this plane, after experiencing the great ideological tide-movement-movement of the year, most of them have a skeptical attitude towards authority. This feels a bit like the "wall egg theory" of Haruki Murakami, another great writer.
On the other side, Haruki Murakami made the famous "wall egg theory" when he won the Jeru-Salem Literary Prize.
"If there is a strong wall and broken eggs hitting the wall, I always stand on the side of the eggs. Yes, no matter how right the walls are and how wrong the eggs are, I'm still on the side of the eggs. Whether it is right or wrong is determined by someone else, or by time and history. If a novelist writes on the side of a wall—for whatever reason—how valuable is that writer?
“…… Bombers, tanks, rockets, white-burn-bombs, and machine guns are hard walls. The civilians who are destroyed, burned, and penetrated by it are eggs. This is one of the implications of this metaphor. But it's not just that, there's a deeper meaning. Think of it this way: each of us is more or less an egg. It is an egg with an irreplaceable soul and a fragile shell that encloses it. I am, and so do you.
"And if we were more or less confronted with a wall of hard walls for everyone. The wall has a name, it's called System. The system is supposed to protect us, and sometimes it kills us and makes us kill on its own, coldly, efficiently, and systematically. ”
……
The common people of this plane have a bit of this meaning, if the authority does not stand with them, then they have the urge to break the authority. This is the singer they like in the talent competition, and if they are given a score that they think is unfair by the professional judges, then they will sympathize with the singer. After that, I will double down on my support for this singer. Not for anything else, but for the face of those so-called professional judges.
The era team behind Wu Zhilong let Wu Zhilong start with an imperfect song "Wings", just to take advantage of the psychology of ordinary audiences who tend to break authority. to win favor for Wu Zhilong. After all. The support of the audience outside the stadium of the future is the first key factor.
However, the tactics they designed are also very risky, that is, Wu Zhilong must be able to enter the top 24. Otherwise, their good intentions will be meaningless. Because only after entering the top 24, "Sound of China" will take the form of live broadcast, and then it will take the link of calling and voting from the audience outside the venue. In the previous top 100 battles and 48-24 one-on-one duels, these professional judges in the field will play an important role in the first layer of screening. He had to not be brushed off for this tactic to work.
According to his score in the morning, he only scored 2018 points, and only 67.3 points on a 100-point system, barely ranking ninth.
Du Xinghe didn't expect that the era team behind Wu Zhilong would formulate such risky tactics for Wu Zhilong, he personally felt that Wu Zhilong's level was not much improved from the Fuwan Youth Song Competition, and he was personally not optimistic about Wu Zhilong's future trend.
……
The morning game was over quickly. At noon, Du Xinghe had a meal with Liao Nan and Lu Qin. During the meal, he told the two of them about some of his experiences in watching the game in the morning. In particular, he talked about the characteristics of the studio of Chang'an Santai, and he emphasized that Liao Nan must turn on his voice when singing "Quit Love-People", singing in such an unplugged environment, the volume of voice is very, very important, and even in the choice and trade-off between volume and emotion, the volume of voice must be ranked in front of feelings. Of course, this is only for Liao Nan to sing the song "Quit Love-People", which is very biased towards the traditional pop style.
This is not the case with Lu Qin's "Oxygen", which is adapted into jazz style. Now that it has been changed to jazz, Lu Qin has to rely on his heartfelt and free singing to impress the audience. Even if her voice is small, as long as she sings well, she will definitely win the affirmation of those professional judges. As for the audience at the scene, it doesn't matter if she can't hear her clearly or not, anyway, those in front of the TV outside the venue will hear it very clearly, because the singer is not plugged in to sing at the scene, but they will have an invisible microphone on their body, which is convenient for the film crew to radio, so the feeling of listening to the audience in front of the TV is completely different from the live audience. After fine tuning, the audience in front of the TV will listen better than the live, and of course this better is only for the singers who are not very good at singing. The kind of singer who sings at the scene is very contagious, just like Lin Suya, who won the NO.1 in the morning, and it is many times more exciting to listen to it live than to listen to it in front of the TV. And Lu Qin's heart-wandering style is not so explosive singing, listening to it in front of the TV may have a better effect, which is also a small advantage of her singing style.
Although Du Xinghe's advice to Lu Qin was to make her sing more natural and free, Lu Qin secretly practiced her lung capacity and vocal volume, and she still had to show a wonderful new singing method that combined opera and jazz, and she wanted to shock Du Xinghe.
……
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the second group of singers competed fiercely in the best studios of Chang'an Santai.
In this group of contestants, many singers from large companies have already understood the performance of the contestants in the morning, as well as the more important live sound field conditions, so their performance has taken certain corrections on this basis, which also makes their overall performance better than that of the morning contestants.
But the afternoon contest of 25 singers. There is still no one who can break through Lin Suya's high score of 2618, Lin Suya's singing style with great difference in static movement and explosive power, without plugging in, has too many advantages. Unless Lin Suya is blown up with the same characteristics, it is possible to replace it, otherwise it is difficult for other traditional singing methods to shake Lin Suya's advantages.
The highest score in the afternoon game was Ma Shupeng, who belonged to the arrow target in the same company as Lin Suya, this cool boy with a bit of rock temperament has a large vocal field, extremely high treble, and it is very enjoyable to soar. It's exciting. However, his disadvantage is that he is not as good-looking as Lin Suya. Purely as a singer, his explosiveness and appeal are not weaker than Lin Suya. But he looks really a little filed, only a little more than one meter and six, only a little taller than Liao Nan. After such a singer stands on the stage. Although they can roar a voice that is a hundred times stronger than their body explosiveness. But the impact is still not enough. After all, everyone knows that this is to choose a singer who will lead the whole Chinese to cheer for the national football. It represents China. And the country itself is very tall in their hearts, so the big guys will more or less want to choose some tall, handsome or white and beautiful singers to represent everyone. A boy like Ma Shupeng, who is short and not very handsome, and is purely a silent and cool brother, is very unpopular. At least compared with Lin Suya, who is as quiet as a virgin, Ma Shupeng's image has reduced him a lot of points. If he can look as handsome as the king of singers, it is estimated that he has surpassed Lin Suya and won the first place on the temporary list.
However, even though Ma Shupeng's image is not suitable for winning the championship, Ma Shupeng's music is very shocking, which is why most professional judges give him high marks from the music level. Lin Suya only got a score of 1230 from the 500 professional judges in the morning, while Ma Shupeng got 100 points more than Lin Suya from the professional judges, getting 1330 points. It's a pity that only 1,174 of the 1,500 audience judges voted for him, which was much worse than Lin Suya's 1,388 votes, and in the end he could only rank second with a total score of 2,504 points.
BV dancer Hou Yisen, who ranked second in the morning, was squeezed into third place. The third place in the morning, He Jieyu from the era, was also surpassed by a singer who came out of the arrow.
So far, three of the four singers who have participated in the competition have been pushed out by the target have entered the top 5, and Lin Suya and Ma Shupeng have arranged the top two, which shows how strong the hard power of the target singers is. You must know that the singer Andy Cheung is also a singer of the arrow target, if the "Sound of China" competition is won by the arrow target again, so that the arrow target can cultivate the next generation of singers and singers, then the leading position of the arrow target in the industry will be consolidated for many years.
The other three of the four major record companies don't want this to happen, after all, a singer has pushed the career of the arrow target to the peak, if there is another singer and queen now, it will be too big a blow to them. Fortunately, their respective killer singers have been drawn to the bottom of the game, and now that the target has monopolized three of the top five, they are not very nervous, and they are all confident that they will perform well in this top 100 battle.
Wu Zhilong, who ranked ninth in the morning, fell sharply in the afternoon, and was surpassed by 18 singers, falling directly to 27th. This made Wu Zhilong nervously smoke two packs of cigarettes, and if he continued to develop in such a way, his top 48 may not be able to keep it!
Du Xinghe didn't have any feelings for Wu Zhilong for a long time, but given that they were all singers from Fuwan, he still paid a little attention to Wu Zhilong, and saw that Wu Zhilong had been pulled to the 27th place, and he still felt a little sorry in his heart. He felt that with the current trend, Wu Zhilong was likely to be eliminated from the top 48, and he originally wanted to listen to Wu Zhilong sing one more song, because Wu Zhilong's kind of five-tone incomplete sounded interesting to poisonous ears. Music is not templated, it doesn't mean that the pitch is good, the tone is not good, if the tone is not accurate, if the tone is not accurate, if you can give full play to the advantages of the inaccuracy and sing your own style, you can actually achieve something, and Du Xinghe feels that Wu Zhilong's five tones are not complete has this potential, of course, it is just potential, Wu Zhilong himself may not have realized this, and the team of the era did not build him in this aspect. If you really dare to go to the extreme, his voice is very malleable.
Wu Zhilong has released an album before, and Du Xinghe has heard it, but it has obviously done post-editing and has not expressed Wu Zhilong's most characteristic voice. So his records sold badly, because there was no selling point at all.
Du Xinghe felt that if Wu Zhilong was under him, he would definitely be able to polish Wu Zhilong and find a very different way. For this kind of malleable sound, he naturally wants to listen to his ears more.
But now, among the top 50 singers, Wu Zhilong is only ranked 27th, and Wu Zhilong is likely to not be able to break into the later competitions.
In the afternoon competition, there were also songs sung by two female singers that attracted Du Xinghe's attention. The reason why these two female singers attracted Du Xinghe's attention was not that they had many characteristics, but that the songs they sang made Du Xinghe feel very interesting.
These two sang Fang Yajun's new songs!
Fang Yajun's new album "Sunshine is Always After the Wind and Rain" will be released on the 9th of next month, and the current publicity work of the album has been widely promoted across the country under the layout of Hongyan's best efforts. Now the first two waves of the album's main songs "Sunshine is Always After the Wind and Rain" and "Realization" are hitting the major charts.
Among them, the title song "Sunshine is Always After the Wind and Rain" was launched at the end of July, and Du Xinghe won the championship of the Fu Championship at that time, and when the popularity was at a high point, Du Xinghe personally released the song. This "Sunshine is Always After the Wind and Rain", whether it is in terms of showing Fang Yajun's singing skills or the charm of the song itself, it is not a superior work in this new album, but as long as it is from the group of listeners who listened to Fang Yajun more than ten years ago or grew up or grew old, they will have a heartfelt feeling when they hear this song, this kind of moving not only comes from Fang Yajun's intention to never abandon music after so many years of hibernation, and finally see the sunshine after the wind and rain, this kind of moving comes from the heart of every listener.
As long as you have life experience, you must understand the meaning of the phrase "sunshine is always after the wind and rain", and everyone has experienced such sunshine after the rain to a greater or lesser extent. From a certain point of view, all the people who listened to Fang Yajun's song were moved by Fang Yajun's story, Fang Yajun's voice, and their own experiences. There are even many people who associate this song with Du Xinghe, the original creator of this song, and after being called crazy, almost everyone knows that Du Xinghe has also re-emerged from the haze of losing his loved ones, and this song is singing the story of Fang Yajun and the story of Du Xinghe.
Stories like this are the most touching.
So such a song has become the most touching song.
This song "Sunshine is Always After the Wind and Rain", with the power of Fang Yajun after leaving the music scene for too long, as soon as it was launched, it immediately hit the top of all music charts, and exploded the new song of BV dance king Guo Allen, who was also singing at the same time. This can be regarded as Fang Yajun's own bad breath. You know, she has always had a long-standing conflict with BV.
Du Xinghe exposed this song two weeks in advance, firstly, considering that his popularity at that time was too explosive, everyone was paying attention to him and was curious about him, he can be said to have attracted the attention of most of the people in China, it was the best advertising opportunity, if you missed that opportunity, there may not be such an opportunity in the future. So he immediately announced the title of Fang Yajun's new song. At the same time, he announced it so early, also to give Fang Yajun this bad breath, at that time, Guo Allen's new song was dominating the major charts alone, and the BV scenery was incomparable. Du Xinghe wants to pull down the horse for BV at the most beautiful time, which can show Fang Yajun's charm.
As he wished, Fang Yajun's new song "Sunshine is Always After the Wind and Rain" came out, killing the dancing king of BV without leaving a piece of armor. Swept the top of all music charts in the first week! Even BV's own radio station's music chart, because it couldn't withstand the pressure of a large number of fans, gave up the top spot on the weekly chart to "Sunshine Always After the Wind and Rain". With such a majestic eruption momentum, I'm afraid that the singer Andy Cheung can't do it! (To be continued......)
