LU CHONG DIDN'T KNOW THAT BECAUSE OF THE TWO BANDS SNOOKERBOY AND MR. BODYBUILDING, HE ACTUALLY LEFT AN UNRELIABLE IMPRESSION IN THE MIND OF QIAN QIBIN, WHO MET FOR THE FIRST TIME.

After arriving at the professional recording studio under the leadership of Qian Qibin, Lu Chong began to announce the rules of the fighting music to the captains of the two bands, Li Weiguo and Zhang Zhejiang.

"I'll give you two pieces to play, and then I'll make the judgment. The winning side will get a contract to accompany my new album, and the losing side will also offer you a work contract, but not with me. ”

THE TWO BANDS, SNOOKER BOY AND MR. BODYBUILDER, ARE MADE UP EXACTLY THE SAME, WITH A GUITARIST, A BASS, A DRUMMER, AND A KEYBOARDIST.

AND QUITE COINCIDENTALLY, SNOOKERBOY'S CAPTAIN LI WEIGUO AND MR. BODYBUILDER'S CAPTAIN ZHANG ZHEJIANG ARE BOTH DRUMMERS IN THE BAND.

This is actually very rare in a band, and the drummer can be regarded as the weakest presence in the band compared to other band members.

Because the drum can only beat the rhythm, but cannot play the tone, it must be used with other instruments to play the role of accompaniment. And during the performance, because the instrument itself is so large, the drummer cannot move freely, so he can only sit behind a high drum kit, and many times he cannot even show his face.

Li Weiguo and Zhang Zhejiang's tempers are also quite similar, they are both fiery temperaments. However, the two did not have any sympathy for each other because of the same identity and life, but after they met, they glared at each other from time to time like two bullfights.

The rules set by Lu Chong are very simple, and he is the only one to judge, but no one will doubt the fairness of it, after all, Lu Chong is choosing an accompaniment band for himself, and he will definitely not find a worse one for himself to cooperate.

Lu Chong took out the two pieces of music scores that he had prepared from his bag and handed them to the two of them and said, "One of them is the arrangement of a new song I wrote, and the other is the score of a classic song, I believe you have all played it before." ”

Lu Chong handed them the score, one of which was the arrangement of "I'mYours" that he had sung in "Good Morning America", although this song was very long, but the tune was not too complicated, so that the two bands could quickly master it.

However, although the melody of this English song is not copied, it requires a lot of skill, because the rhythm of the tune is always changing.

Moreover, there is often a shift between solo and ensemble between various instruments, which requires not only the musician's own skill, but also the skillful coordination of the entire orchestra.

Another song Lu Chong gave them was a classic track in Chinese rock music, Beyond's "Sea and Sky".

I believe that this is a piece that any Chinese band has played, but this does not mean that every band can play this song well.

Compared with the technical assessment of "I'Yours", Lu Chong asked both sides to play the "Sea and Sky", but he wanted to see how deep their understanding of music was, and whether they could integrate this understanding into their own performances.

A band can't be a big band if it's only technical. The same piece of music played by two bands of similar skill may be touching, while the other is just pleasing to the ear.

This kind of emotional thing cannot be described in words, and there is no way to learn from others, so you can only rely on your own understanding to comprehend. Not only should you be able to grasp the emotions in your musical works, but you must also use your own presentation techniques to express the emotions you have comprehended.

AFTER GETTING THE TWO SCORES GIVEN BY LU CHONG, SNOOKERBOY AND MR. BODYBUILDER BOTH SAID THAT THEY WANTED TO PLAY "SEA AND SKY" FOR LU CHONG FIRST.

After all, people have a preconceived notion of this kind of emotional thing, and when they listen to beautiful music once, if the second band plays the same music again, there will be a kind of aesthetic fatigue, unless the second band's performance level is obviously outstanding, so that people can have some feelings.

In the end, the result was decided by guessing the boxing, and SNOOKERBOY won the right to play first, although Zhang Zhejiang was a little unwilling, he was willing to lose the bet, so he had to watch SNOOKERBOY stand in the middle of the recording studio with his instrument.

LU CHONG WAS ABLE TO HAVE A LOVE FOR SNOOKERBOY, THEY STILL HAVE A REAL LEVEL, THE SONG "SEA AND SKY" NOT ONLY MADE LU CHONG NOD FREQUENTLY, BUT EVEN QIAN QIBIN, WHO ORIGINALLY FELT THAT THESE PEOPLE WERE A LITTLE UNRELIABLE, BEGAN TO LOOK AT THEM WITH ADMIRATION.

AFTER SNOOKERBOY FINISHED PLAYING, HE IMMEDIATELY URGED MR. BODYBUILDER TO LET THEM START QUICKLY, BUT ZHANG ZHEJIANG AND THE OTHERS WERE NOT STUPID, WHERE WOULD THEY BE FOOLED, THEY TUNED THE PIANO AND TRIED THE DRUMS, AND THEY JUST RUBBED FOR MORE THAN TEN MINUTES, AND THEY FELT THAT LU CHONG SHOULD NOT HAVE REMEMBERED THE SNOOKERBOY PERFORMANCE JUST NOW BEFORE HE STARTED PLAYING.

As soon as their performance began, Lu Chong was relieved in his heart, Mr. Bodybuilder's level was indeed not blown. THEIR TECHNICAL LEVEL IS NOT MUCH HIGHER THAN THAT OF SNOOKERBOY, BUT THEIR EMOTIONAL INTEGRATION IS SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER.

SNOOKER BOY HIMSELF COULD OBVIOUSLY FEEL THE GAP, BUT LU CHONG'S EYES HAD NO SPECIAL EXPRESSION, AND THEY STILL HELD ON TO THE HOPE OF WHAT HAPPENED.

After the two bands played, Lu Chong did not give any evaluation, but asked Qian Qibin to arrange a recording studio for them and let them practice the new songs separately.

This time, the gap was even more pronounced, and after only three hours, Mr. Bodybuilder offered to try his hand at playing.

This speed surprised Lu Chong, he had also been in an underground band in his previous life, and he knew that it was difficult to completely run in a brand new song.

Ask yourself, if it were the underground band in his previous life, he might not be able to practice a new song to the point where he could play it in a day.

And the next performance of Mr. Bodybuilder also gave Lu Chong a lot of surprises, although there were a few small flaws in the cooperation, but Mr. Bodybuilder's understanding of this song completely made up for this deficiency.

I believe that as long as they are given more time to practice, they will definitely be able to meet the standard in Lu Chong's mind.

By this time, Lu Chong had actually made a decision, his new album this time was very tight, and he wanted to launch it before the official launch of "The Voice of China", and Mr. Bodybuilder's mastery of music made him very satisfied.

SNOOKERBOY DIDN'T START HIS OFFICIAL PERFORMANCE UNTIL TWO HOURS AFTER MR. BODYBUILDER PLAYED, AND THEIR PERFORMANCE WAS DECENT, BUT IN TERMS OF MUSICAL EXPRESSION, THEY WERE STILL INFERIOR TO MR. BODYBUILDER.

IN THE END, LU CHONG ANNOUNCED HIS DECISION, MR. BODYBUILDING GOT THE OPPORTUNITY TO COLLABORATE WITH HIM ON A NEW ALBUM, AND SNOOKERBOY GOT TANG BIN'S NUMBER, AND TANG BIN WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR NEGOTIATING WITH THEM THE CONDITIONS FOR JOINING THE GENESIS COMPANY.
