Chapter 1018: The Secret Weapon
"In the thirteenth episode of "I Am a Singer" in 2011, good evening to the audience and friends in front of the TV, I am MC Yoon Do-hyun." It can be heard from Yoon Do-hyun's opening remarks that "I Am a Singer" is not so much a variety show as a concert, otherwise it would not have been reported like this.
If Yoo Jae-seok said at the beginning of "RunningMan" with a good sentence "2011 "RunningMan" 32nd issue, good afternoon to the audience in front of the TV, I am MC Yoo Jae-seok", I am afraid that some viewers will not be able to stand it, but here Yin Daoxian said this sentence without a little problem, most of the audience who came to listen to the song came with the mentality of appreciating music, rather than hip-hop entertainment.
"Because of some problems with my physical condition, Ren Jae-beom's predecessors, who impressed us all in the first two performances, will not be able to continue to bring us all good songs, I think everyone is just as sorry as I am, right?" Yoon Do-hyun said that it was explained in advance by MBC, and it was not easy for Ren Jae-fan to re-emerge from the world through their stage, and now that they are under great pressure to withdraw from the competition, they can't fall into the trap again, so they can only try their best to remedy it first, otherwise it will be difficult to invite other singers to participate in the future.
"That's right......" There are people of all ages in the audience, and there are many people who like Ren Jaefan, and many people regret his departure. Although Ren Jae-beom's singing skills are not very good, and the result of his singing is too affected by his own state, his unique voice is very infectious, and singing to the depths of love can give people goosebumps. Because of the difficult situation of his wife suffering from cancer and having to pay his wife's medical bills independently while supporting his daughter's schooling, Ren Jae-beom is sympathized with by too many people, but everyone likes to listen to him sing, more because he is a good singer.
There are not many singers with excellent singing skills in recent years, but there are even fewer who can be called "good singers".
After completing the task assigned by the Broadcasting Bureau. Yoon Do-hyun saw that the atmosphere at the scene was a little gloomy, and immediately smiled to mobilize the emotions of the audience, "Although the departure of Ren Jae-beom's predecessors is regrettable, I think the appearance of the new singer will exceed many people's expectations, I dare to assert that everyone will definitely make this trip worthwhile today." ”
Many people already knew the news that Li Jingming would appear today, and the photo of the Mercedes-Benz nanny car entering the MBC building in the morning further proved this, so the audience immediately became happy when they thought of listening to Li Jingming's singing live later, which is not a common opportunity. is because of Li Jingming's appearance. The number of applicants for the live audience of "I Am a Singer" has exceeded three times the number of previous applicants in just two days.
Speaking of the show "I Am a Singer", it has a lot of relationship with Li Jingming, and the planners of MBC saw that the "Hallyu Power Concert" was very successful in this competitive concert model, so they thought that it could be made into a stage competition variety show.
MBC has big ambitions, and if the format is right, they want to regain their status as the pillar of the Korean Wave in a different way. In the past, Hallyu dramas were supported, and MBC is the kingdom of TV dramas, which has made a great contribution to the spread of Hallyu. Naturally, the harvest is also unmatched, and now that Hallyu has changed to K-pop, they are doing everything they can to give MBC enough voice in the music industry.
"The first singer to appear today is a goblin in the Korean music industry. There is a huge amount of energy hidden in the petite body, and without further ado, please Park Jung-hyun below! Yin Daoxian waved his hand, and the audience darkened. Then the lights came on one after another, converging on the small figure in the middle of the stage.
Park Jung-hyun can be said to be the most relaxed among the seven people who came today, even more relaxed than Lee Kyung-myung. Although she will definitely be a little aggrieved, she can be considered to have figured it out after she came, and completely gave up the idea of taking the first place, just to keep the position in the upper circle and support it until she graduated with honors. The more I understand, the more I understand that Li Jingming's success in the music industry today is not achieved by money, but by superb skills and unparalleled singing expression.
The quality of the song "Fool" itself is good, although it is Park Hyo-shin's song, Park Jung-hyun does not have any psychological burden in choosing it, Lee Kyung-myung is not so bad that because Park Hyo-shin bullied Kim Taeyeon and had conflicts with Jessica, he is not even allowed to sing his songs, but Lee Kyung-myung feels that Park Jung-hyun chose the wrong song. Park Hyo-shin is crying, swallowing his breath is very obvious when singing, although this problem was later changed, but it left a very heavy trace in the song he became famous, Park Jung-hyun sang "Fool" with her thin girly voice, which is really a bit nondescript.
It's not that any song has to be faithful to the original song, many covers make the original song embarrassing, but the song is either tailor-made by the composer for the singer, or the composer who finds the most suitable singer after writing it, and it is almost impossible to find a composer who entrusts his work to someone casually. In this case, the original song is basically the sound that best reflects the color of the song, especially the song that is widely circulated.
Li Jingming enjoyed six songs as a bystander, these are all powerful singers in South Korea, even the "yoga master" Yu Zhuxian, who has been suffering from Anti, has two brushes, and competing with these people on the same stage with a competitive mentality still helps him a lot. It wasn't until PD came to knock on the door that Li Jingming reacted to his play, and casually smoothed his hair and walked out with a smile.
"Before today's episode of the show started, everyone had heard a lot of rumors about the new singers, which one are you most looking forward to appearing on the stage?" Yin Daoxian played well today and was in a good mood, and at the last moment, it is estimated that all of them have put down their burdens.
"Li Jingming! Li Jingming! Lee Kyung-myung has a wide fan base, not only young people like him and his uninhibitedness, but older people also like to use his excellence to educate their children, so his recognition in South Korea is higher than that of the national MC Yoo Jae-seok, who appears on TV every week.
"That's right, it's the owner of the eleven golden record players, the holder of the four Billboard records, the god Apollo who is in charge of the music, TheOnly, Li Jingming!" Yoon Daoxian said very exaggerated when he introduced Li Jingming, but it did not make the audience uncomfortable, not only did not leave the scene, but also applauded excitedly, Koreans eat this set.
Li Jingming was a little embarrassed to hear it, although these were all facts, but it still made him muttered for a while: "I really didn't get to the point at all, for example, my handsomeness and cuteness were not reflected at all." ”
Li Jingming walked to the middle of the stage and smiled at the audience, then sat down calmly, adjusted the shelf for the microphone, and then reached out and loosened his tie. With a white shirt and black trousers and a pair of shiny leather shoes, Li Jingming is not dressed like the chairman of a large group, let alone Wang Shizi, but like a white-collar worker who has just gotten off work. Li Jingming was not in a hurry to start singing, but closed his eyes and gently exhaled through his nose.
Skilled singers do not try to hide their breathing, for them breathing is also part of the song, especially some female singers use the breathing sound as a killer feature, which can make the listener listen to a crisp. The sound of Li Jingming's breathing came out through the audio equipment, and many people's hearts were tight: there was drama in the snort! The huge studio immediately quieted down, and the temperature plummeted by more than ten degrees, and it went straight from early summer to late autumn.
"Whenever I am immersed in Bach's melody, dusty memories come flooding back to my heart, and those old songs that have passed away with the wind also come back in the whistle...... I will turn to dust and fly to you with the wind. Li Jingming sang a cappella, so every word was very clearly transmitted to the ears of the audience, and he did not leave a blank in the middle of the big interlude, but gently raised his eyebrows and whistled out the interlude part of the song.
Jin Guangshi's songs have a kind of power that goes straight to the heart, there are many people who sing his songs, and there are many who rearrange the songs, but those who have better singing skills and stronger instrumental talents can never compare with Jin Guangshi, because they can't show the kind of soul-touching power. Although Li Jingming's cappella singing is pale and white, but it really grasps the essence of Jin Guangshi, the audience present is entered according to the era, the twentieth generation before the light to see Li Jingming's face is excited enough, and the thirties after are completely moved by this song "Turning into Dust".
At the end of the song, Li Jingming took out his secret weapon from the pocket of his pants, which was the antique harmonica he once played on the Han River Bridge. Li Jingming played not "Turning into Dust", but Bach's "Sicilian Dance", which is also very close to Jin Guangshi's song itself.
At the end of the song, the audience stood up, the applause lasted for a long time, Li Jingming bowed repeatedly and thanked the audience without stopping, although this stage is simple, but it can be called perfect. Because there is no musical instrument accompaniment other than his own harmonica, Li Jingming still did not wear a headset, and came out as soon as he took off his tie and changed his shirt, although he himself did not care about the final ranking, but he still had to participate in the ranking announcement.
Not surprisingly, Li Jingming won one of the issues, and the other singers are also very convinced, the strength is irrefutable here, and everyone else has more or less mistakes, like Li Jingming, who sings for five minutes without making a single mistake, and even has leisure to whistle and play the harmonica, in their opinion, they are simply non-human.
Lee Kyung-myung's appearance, as expected by MBC, not only increased the ratings, but also pushed "I Am a Singer" to the 30% club at once, and also caused a huge topic. Li Jingming's purpose is this, now in East Asian countries represented by South Korea, most of the young people lack the ability to appreciate music, and their interest in songs and music is still at the level of "cool", "dazzling", "hanging", and "energetic".
