Chapter 77: Lucky, Unlucky
Chapter 77: Lucky and unlucky
When Yuanxin heard Shui Qing say that he wanted to perform on stage with the Cicada Band. She was so excited that she felt like she could sing with them herself, not only verbally supporting, but also saying that she would help with the costumes and makeup.
Shui Qing saw Yuanxin's enthusiasm, and she was embarrassed to dampen her enthusiasm. Although she hadn't thought about these trivial matters, her friends were grateful that they could take care of her.
I don't know if it's Xu Ran's luck or Shui Qing's bad luck. She had just bought Nanyu and should have a lot to deal with. But after discussing with Yun Tianlan and Ye Dad, it takes a lot of energy to plan in the early stage, and the end of the year is approaching, and the project will not start until the beginning of spring next year at the earliest. So during Christmas and New Year's time, she can adjust the rhythm. Otherwise, Xu Ranzhen shaved her head, and she wouldn't have time to play any band.
Soon on Wednesday, she entered the art department as promised.
I always thought it was a small office, but I didn't expect the decorative white curtain to be opened, and behind the floor-to-ceiling glass was a very spacious and bright practice room. Drum kit, electronic organ, bass, electric guitar. There is also a grand piano, which is basically a dedicated place for the cicada band.
The four of them were probably practicing a fast song, and because it was a soundproof room, she couldn't hear any music, just watching them jump up and down, shaking their heads and tails. Xu Ran is the most outstanding in appearance, but the other three have their own characteristics, and their appearance is also very good.
No matter how selfishly he doesn't like Xu Ran, watching him sing until he sweats just by practicing, I still have to praise his concentration. Such a person is likely to succeed in the future. Although her personality is very pimple, she has recently found that the more prominent the person, the more difficult it is to get close to people. There is no way, the external environment spoils these people. It's not that they are bad, but they have to get along and get acquainted with each other before they can show their true temperament.
She waited outside for them to finish singing, and Xu Ran saw her before pushing the door in.
After Shui Qing and Gao Ge, Xiao Jian and Xiao Shan got to know each other, they chatted for a while and had a certain impression. Gao Gemian didn't talk much. Xiaojian and Xiaoshan are very lively. The three of them also have a tacit understanding, and they continue to talk to each other, so as not to make her feel cold.
They are all good people, Shui Qing thought to herself.
Xu Ran came over after drinking the water and went straight to the point: "Which song do you want to sing?" β
She didn't talk nonsense to him either, and took out a piece of paper from her bag. Flattened it and put it in his hand, "That's it." β
"The rainbow song is not good, it does not fit the style of cicadas, and it is difficult for men and women to sing in duet." It was originally sung by a child, but he just didn't explain it to her in advance.
"So that's it." Guarding against him early, Shui Qing pointed at the lyrics in his hand with his fingertips, "Look at it, I'm not responsible if I can't sing." β
He can't sing? Xu Ranxiang is self-defeating in language and music, and pays attention to the foreign pop song list, but now he is actually provoked by a first-year student, he hummed coldly and went to see that tune.
The first line made him change his face. He hadn't seen the lyrics, and when he saw it, he didn't know which song it was.
"The lyrics are not neat, the rhythm is not consistent, you have to make it up, it's good to learn it first." He handed the paper to Gao Ge and them, and the three of them took turns reading it, frowning.
"But it's pretty good to read." Xiaoshan scratched his head.
Shui Qing took back the lyrics, who said it wasn't neat? The neatness of English lyrics is different from Chinese, and sometimes only the vowel sound of the last word is heard. Sometimes it takes two or three sentences apart to return to the main rhyme. It needs to match the melody and rhythm, reflect the sense of wholeness, and have unique elements.
She cleared her throat, slapped the clap with one hand, and began to singβ
Can you hear me? I'm talking to you
Through the river through the deep blue ocean,
Under the endless sky, oh my, baby, I'm trying
Boy I heard you in my dreams,
I feel your whispers pierce the water,
I put you and myself in my heart,
When life is so hard, I am comforted because of you.
How lucky to be in love with my best friend,
How fortunate I am to have been standing here
How lucky I was to finally get home......
After singing, Shui Qing simply closed her eyes and enjoyed the melody turning in low ups and downs, each song independent but affectionate, and the nasal conversion of the breath was perfect. The pitch is not high, but it is difficult to jump in tone.
Love this song because of the blissful lyrics. I like this song because of a person, a person she has let go of in this life.
When Shui Qing opened his eyes again, he was greeted by four pairs of eyes that were engrossed.
"What's this song called?" Look at the quietest singing and be the first to speak.
Before being reborn, the favorite man and woman sing love songs in duet.
"Who is the original singer?" Xiao Jian wanted to buy a record right away.
"Original." The original song will appear ten years later, hee-hee. She was immediately met with a blazing gaze and quickly brushed it off. "A friend made it to me, not me."
"Your friend did the lyrics and music alone? Chinese? "Xiaoshan blinked hard, this song will definitely be very popular.
"Hmm. Someone else who is not in the country has already given me this song. "Forgive her for her nonsense, she is helpless.
"Can you show me the spectrum?" Xu Ran finally spoke, without his previous contempt. The world is big, but my heart is so small. I thought I was a decent musician, but it turned out that I couldn't compare to other people's plays.
"There is no spectrum. He hummed casually and taught casually, and that's how I learned. She put her hands behind her back and crossed her index and middle fingers, begging for forgiveness after lying.
"Your friend also studied music?" There are a lot of problems with the hills.
"You can't play without scores, right? A lot of people say you're talented, I seeβ" She didn't want to answer questions that required a relay of lies.
"Who says you can't play?" Xiao Jian shouted, immediately ran back to the electronic organ, slipped to test the sound, and said to Shui Qing, "You sing it again, and I can play it." β
"That's right, Ran, I'll leave the notation to you." Xiaoshan picked up his bass.
Gao Ge was already sitting in front of the drum kit, looking solemn.
Xu Ran walked to the piano and opened the lid. Ten fingers clenched twice, flicked a few keys, as if it was a part of LUCKY. "Please sing the first two stanzas."
That's the real Xu Ran. When I got serious, all the sunshine that was deliberately highlighted around my body was collected, and it was as quiet as spring water, and only then did I think of it gushing out of my heart.
At this time he and his companions are one. Privately, at least he genuinely loves music. No matter how much Shui Qing hates him, he can't deny this.
And now she is helping not him, but this band. They are talented and passionate. She can't spoil the whole because of her own likes and dislikes.
Shui Qing sang the song again.
Although Xiaojian said that as long as she sang it again, it would pop up. But in fact, she sang for three hours, and the four of them completed the score, and the male and female voices were really clear. It took two more hours, under the guidance of Shui Qing, and finally played the song as close to the version she had heard, but Xu Ran and she only had time to sing it twice.
I don't like Shui Qing, who is still hanging out after dark, and refuses the proposal to continue practicing after dinner, insisting on going home.
"I can send you home." His pronunciation is not as authentic as Shui Qing, and he really wants to listen to it and imitate it more. He even forgot his original intention, it was a bit of a prank, and something was difficult for a strong man.
In personal time, Shui Qing didn't want to have anything to do with Xu Ran, "No need." Will you also practice here the day after tomorrow? β
"Almost." Xu Ran nodded.
"Then I'll come here without class." Shui Qing has a very positive attitude.
Xu Ran didn't expect her to suddenly change her unwilling attitude, and she was surprised and happy to see it. The time is already very tight, and she can still take the initiative to practice singing, which is the best. At this time, where did he guess that Shui Qing had other purposes.
Jiang came home from work and heard her daughter and the babies singing in the room again, still in English, so she asked her husband curiously: "Old Han, why have Qingqing and the babies been singing in the past two days?" β
"Don't you know that there is a Christmas Eve concert in a college town?" Han Yinong smiled and said, "The musical fountain in front of your Wanyi Square." β
"I know, but what does it have to do with Qingqing?" Wanyi is still a sponsor. Although Christmas is a Western holiday that has only become popular this year, young people like to celebrate, and of course she cares about more business opportunities.
"Qingqing wants to perform a chorus on stage, and let the babies help her practice." Han Yinong told his wife.
"Our family is singing on stage?" Jiang Rule was happy to burp while eating, "When did she have this talent?" β
"Don't say it, I listen, I sing like that." Han Yinong has a basic knowledge of English.
"Then we have to bring the baby, and the family will cheer her on." She's going to be empty that day.
"I still need you to say, I got all the tickets. It is said that it is very tight, and I owe a favor to get four. Han Yinong was the first to support her daughter with action.
The two of them heard Qingqing and the babies cheering, probably because the practice was completed.
"Singing very well." Shui Qing praises baby Beibei.
"But Sister Qing's pronunciation is good." Babe hasn't taken a break from the music yet. The body swayed to the rhythm. "I must learn from my sister."
"You have memorized all the words, and if you practice a few more times, you will definitely sing better than me." Shui Qing began to check Beibei's homework, and there was quite a lot of homework in the second year of junior high school.
"Impossible." The baby said casually while flipping through National Geographic. Sister Qingqing has subscribed to several foreign magazines, he likes to read them, he has a lot of knowledge, and he can enhance his reading ability in English.
"How could it be?" Shui Qing saw him reading the magazine leisurely, and he couldn't care, who made his grades the first in the grade.
"To be like Sister Qing, you have to be talented." The baby buried his head in the Himalayan pages, "Bebe, she doesn't." β
"You're not the same." Bei Bei was not convinced.
"So I'm looking at this, not saying big things." The baby glanced at his sister coolly, "This is called self-knowledge." β
Shui Qing was silent, and took out Beibei's homework to check. But when I could still hear the two bickering outside, I couldn't help laughing. These lovely twins would be if they could live together like this forever!
Calculate, in a little more than a month, Captain Xiao will be back. She just wants to take possession of people, and she can't. Until then, have a good holiday!
The middle of winter is thick, and the small living room is happy, which makes people warm up from the bottom of their hearts.
Pink fen red, fly over!
