Chapter 129: The Most Beautiful But "Seven Mile Fragrance"
Seven o'clock in the evening.
Everything is ready, and Zheng Tao, the chief director of "Singing", announced the official start of the second phase of the competition.
He Hao stepped on the stage with the lights, mentioned his emotions, and said enthusiastically: "Welcome all singers, guests, and 500 judges to the stage of "Singing".
"Tonight is the second competition, and it will decide whether the two singers, or even the three singers, will stay or not.
In addition to the seven starting singers, there is also a mysterious kicking singer who has not appeared in a certain preparation room.
"We all know that in the last competition, two singers were selected as kick targets.
"One is Fang Xing, and the other is Chen Lizhu.
"Chen Lizhu has already been kicked once, so she won't have a second time tonight.
According to the rules of kicking, this mysterious kicking singer can choose the kicking target again.
Will he still choose the same goal?
"Audience friends, are you very curious?
"I'm also curious, but tonight I won't whet everyone's appetite and directly announce the target chosen by the mysterious kicking singer.
"That's it...... Wake up!
"That's right, it's Fang Xing again, this kicking singer, two competitions, both chose the same goal.
"Whether the kick will be successful or not, let's wait and see."
The audience began to get excited.
"That's how the show is good."
"It's nice to have the same target for both games."
"Who the hell is the kicking singer? Why do you have to have a head iron? ”
The 500 judges present were all concerned about the news about "Singing" on the Internet when they were at home.
The news above Weibo has been on the hot search.
Therefore, many on-site hearings have seen this Weibo.
"I feel that this kicking singer is going to be miserable, Fang Xing this goods, and asked on Weibo before, whether to be ruthless or ruthless."
"The group of fun people on Weibo all said that they wanted to be ruthless, I have never seen such an excessive person."
……
on stage.
He Hao continued to say the string words: "Then next, the first singer will appear tonight." Who is he? ”
Speaking of this, he paused, glanced at the audience, and interacted with the audience: "In the last competition, the first singer to appear was Fang Xing, audience friends, do you think he will be the first to play tonight?" ”
"Let him go!"
There was a loud shout from the audience.
He Hao didn't continue to sell Guanzi, and said directly: "That's right, the first singer to compete on the stage, just like the last time, is also Fang Xing."
In fact, Fang Xing originally got the seventh appearance order, but in the end it was changed to Chen Lizhu.
"I know you, by the time the last singer finishes singing, you'll have forgotten what the first singer sang."
The audience retorted loudly: "No! ”
"Really, won't?"
He Hao smiled and continued to interact: "Then let's see if he can leave an indelible impression in the hearts of the audience, and invite the first competing singer." ”
Fang Xing stepped on the backlight, walked out from behind the stage, came to the center of the stage, and stood next to He Hao.
He Hao began to ask: "It's the first time to appear again, how do you feel?" ”
Fang Xing shrugged and replied, "It's fine." ”
He Hao continued to ask: "Just now announced the goal chosen by the singer who kicked the gym, you already know it, right?" ”
Fang Xing nodded: "I know, I chose it again." ”
"What do you want to say about the choice of this kicking singer?"
"There's nothing to say, just sigh. Hey......"
The audience at the scene suddenly became noisy.
"That's a bit excessive, what does this sigh mean?"
"Is this a sigh for the kicking singer? Don't wait to be kicked down, this sigh is godly. ”
"I don't know why, I'd love to see him kicked, but I want to vote for him."
In the discussion of the audience.
He Hao then asked, "I heard that you didn't come alone tonight, but brought a lot of people. ”
Fang Xing nodded and replied, "Yes, I invited the symphony orchestra of my alma mater to help accompany me." The leader of the team is Professor Li Xiuqin from our Donghai Conservatory of Music. ”
The camera pans over Li Xiuqin and the First Symphony Orchestra of the Donghai Conservatory of Music.
He Hao also greeted, "Welcome Professor Li." ”
Immediately afterward, he asked, "What song are you going to sing for such a big battle tonight?" You should remember that tonight was a theme competition, right? The theme is 'The Taste of First Love'. ”
"Remember, I sang the taste of first love into every note of the song." Fang Xing seemed to have read a script, and his answers were fluent.
"And whose smell is it?" He Hao asked curiously.
"Does this show need such explosive news?" Fang Xing joked.
"Hah! I just ask, don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously. Let's move on to the song, if you had to describe this song in one word, what word would you use? He Hao continued to ask questions.
"Beauty."
Fang Xing's answer was concise and to the point.
"The more I talk about it, the more I'm looking forward to it, so tell the audience, what is this song called?" He Hao asked the last question.
"The title of the song is "Seven Miles of Incense." Fang Xing slowly read out the name of the song.
"Let's hand over the stage to Fang Xing." After He Hao finished the last sentence, he turned around and walked off the stage.
"Qilixiang" was written by Fang Wenshan, composed and sung by Jay Chou, arranged by Zhong Xingmin, and included in Jay Chou's album of the same name "Qilixiang".
This song won 3 awards for Best Composition, Producer and Arranger of Hong Kong TVB's Top Ten Golden Songs.
He also won many awards such as the 27th Top Ten Chinese Golden Melody Top Ten Golden Melody Award, and the 11th Global Chinese Music Chart Best Song of the Year.
There is a saying in the music world: the sweetest is not the garden fair, and the most beautiful is the seven miles of incense.
The lyrics and songs of "Qili Xiang" are very beautiful, and they all write what loving someone should look like.
Moreover, the arranger of this song is Zhong Xingmin, who is known as one of the three giants of arrangement.
In terms of arrangement, Zhong Xingmin uses strings.
The string part of the song uses violin, viola, cello, and double bass, and the lineup is strong.
……
on stage.
The lights rotated, and more than a dozen spotlights focused on Fang Xing.
Fang Xing turned around and gave a thumbs up in the direction of the orchestra, signaling that it was ready.
Professor Li Xiuqin picked up the baton and looked at the musicians of the Dongyin No. 1 Symphony Orchestra.
All be ready.
Lu Xiang'er stood in the first violin group, took a deep breath, and adjusted her mood.
She was a little nervous, after all, it was the first time to participate in such a big stage performance.
She looked up at the man in the spotlight and was very happy.
When I saw him on TV before, I wondered if one day I would be able to stand on the same stage as him.
Especially the time of "Red Ling", she was particularly envious of Li Caiwei.
However, she learned the violin, and her singing was only at the KTV level, and she couldn't stand on the stage and sing together like Li Caiwei.
She originally thought that there would be no such opportunity, but she didn't expect that this time she would really come to "Singing" and accompany him.
She really wants to perform well, and the more she wants to perform well, the more nervous she becomes.
She took a deep breath and said to herself in her heart: "I have practiced many times, and the melody is engraved in my head, engraved in my fingers, engraved in my muscles, and I can perform well." ”
After all the musicians are ready.
Professor Li Xiuqin gestured in the direction of the director.
The director plays the accompaniment.
In the studio hall, the sound of wind suddenly echoed.
It's like a breeze blowing, rolling up bursts of notes.
This rumor is the beginning of "Qili Xiang".
It is a sample of the wind sound in an open area in the suburbs and made into an accompaniment background.
As the wind sounded, Professor Li Xiuqin waved down with his baton in his hand.
The sound of the vibrating violin, the sound of the vibrating violin, bright and clear, blends with the sound of the wind, and suddenly makes people feel like a breeze blowing on their faces.
Immediately after that, standard instruments such as guitars and drum kits were added.
The prelude immediately set off the enthusiasm and cheerfulness of summer.
And the summer breeze brings the refreshing coolness, which is so appropriate.
Just listen to the prelude.
The other six starting singers in the viewing room all raised their eyebrows in unison.
The prelude is simply too beautiful to be true.
The prelude to this song, unlike "Nocturne", enters the melody at the beginning and shows the prelude killing.
The prelude to "Seven Miles of Fragrance" is a step-by-step process, first the sound of the wind, then the vibrator, and finally the addition of guitars, drums and other instruments.
Just the prelude, the performance has a sense of layering.
The advance of one bar after another interprets the mood of the melody to the extreme.
Kick the singer in the rest room.
As soon as Shen Xiyin heard the prelude, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and almost blurted out: It's the prelude kill again!
However, she didn't say it, but secretly glanced at Li Siqi next to her.
She muttered in her heart: This prelude sounds quite ruthless, I don't know what it will happen to enter the main song, if the whole song is at the level of the prelude, Li Siqi will be gone.
The audience at the scene was also brought back to the summer in their memories by the prelude.
The audience listened in silence, waiting for the main song.
Fang Xing picked up the microphone and sang in a voice full of summer atmosphere:
"The sparrow outside the window, with a mouthful on a telephone pole.
"When you say this, it feels like summer.
"The pencil in my hand, back and forth on the paper.
"I describe you in a few lines who you are to me.
"The taste of saury, cats and you want to know.
"The fragrance of first love is found by us in this way.
"The warm sunshine was like a freshly picked strawberry.
"You said you couldn't bear to eat this feeling......"
As soon as the main song came out, it immediately pulled the audience into a fresh and sweet story.
It's not pain, it's not sadness, it's that summer, that sweet and ignorant relationship.
Sparrows, pencils, cats, saury, strawberries......
A variety of scenery converges in the song, telling the story of a summer so truly.
That beautiful memory, like a strawberry, is so beautiful that I can't bear to eat it.
Immediately after, the melody of the chorus rises.
Fang Xing continued to sing with memories and feelings, with a melody that sounded gentle:
"It rained all night and my love overflowed like rain.
"The leaves in the yard are thick with my thoughts.
A few words of right and wrong can't cool my enthusiasm.
"You appear on every page of my poems.
"It rained all night and my love overflowed like rain.
"The ledge butterfly is like a beautiful chapter in a poem.
"I went on writing, and I wrote that I would love you forever at the end of the poem.
"You're the only ...... I want to know"
The chorus uses a gentle melody to express emotions, and after listening to it, people feel a trace of strong emotion, which stays in that sweet summer.
The melody of this song is not as passionate as the previous songs, but the summer depicted in the song is so beautiful that it can only exist in memories.
After listening to the chorus.
Shen Xiyin sighed imperceptibly.
Although it's only the first chorus, it's already certain what level this song is.
At this level, if the singers behind do not amplify their moves, there is a high probability that they will win the first place again.
As for Li Siqi next to him, there is not much hope.
In the viewing room of the starting singer.
The six starting singers also have different expressions.
Some starting singers want to compete for the first place, and some singers want to keep the starting position, as long as they are not eliminated.
The singers who just want to keep the starting position are in a good mood, and after listening to the chorus for the first time, they basically don't consider competing with "Qilixiang".
As for the singer who wants to compete for the first place, the expression is even more complicated.
This song "Qili Xiang" is completely different from "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky", but it depicts the taste of first love too beautifully.
This makes it hellish for the singers in the back to sing "The Taste of First Love" again.
Zhuyu is in front, no matter how you sing it, it is like a fish's eyeball.
The audience began to mumble to themselves: "Sure enough, it's not a little ruthless, but a hundred million points!" ”
However, when it comes to the chorus, it's not the best part of the song.
The chorus ends, and the interlude begins.
The melody abruptly shifts from E flat major to C minor through an off-key technique.
The melody becomes soft.
The sound of the wind and vibrator are intertwined, like a breeze blowing through a clear spring.
The tinkling sound of water droplets falling echoes in the melody.
The sound of the wind and the sound of water droplets convey a different taste, with a hint of melancholy and sadness, just like the sweetness of first love, there is always a little bit of confusion.
Immediately afterwards, the magnificent string music sounded, instantly pulling up the melody and making the audience stunned to the point of staring at each other.
The Dongyin No. 1 Symphony Orchestra performed indulgently, using short interludes to show their musical talents.
Lu Xiang'er half-closed her eyes and followed the melody to play, as if she was drifting in a river where the notes converged.
The river is filled with the notes of golden light flowing and magnificent.
This paragraph is very shocking.
The level of this song has been pulled from very strong to ridiculously strong.
When he listened to the chorus for the first time before, Shen Xiyin felt that this song was strong enough and already had the strength to compete for the first place tonight.
However, when this interlude came out, the performance of the Dongyin No. 1 Symphony Orchestra swept the audience, and her eyes immediately widened.
She sighed in her heart: This is not only Li Siqi is gone, but even the other starting singers are gone.
She couldn't help but peek at Li Siqi next to her again.
If Li Siqi is a member of the men's group at the level of bronze butterfly, it is okay, and he may not be able to hear how strong this song is.
However, Li Siqi has a little bit of strength in vocal music.
doesn't rap well, at least have the ability to tell what level a song is.
Therefore.
When Shen Xiyin peeked at him, his expression was ugly.
……
The music continues to play.
At the end of the interlude, a dense drum beat sounds.
The arrangement returns from C minor to E flat major.
Fang Xing raised the microphone and sang the chorus a second time:
"It rained all night and my love overflowed like rain.
"The leaves in the yard are thick with my thoughts.
A few words of right and wrong can't cool my enthusiasm.
"You appear on every page of my poems.
"The full ears of rice are happy for this season.
"And your cheeks are like ripe tomatoes in a field.
"You suddenly said to me that the name of Qilixiang is beautiful.
"I just want to kiss your stubborn mouth at the moment......"
The lyrics of the chorus continue to enrich the story and emotions.
Rain, fallen leaves, ears of rice, tomatoes, and seven lily ...... Finally, a stubborn mouth.
Fang Xing exhausted his feelings and performed this refrain, and many memories came to his mind, including the sweet and regretful relationship in his previous life, and a girl standing in the dark and playing the violin.
The regrets of the past and the sweetness of the present blend together.
These are all memories, and they all belong to you.
At the end of the song, Fang Xing's singing revealed a kind of hope, singing "I just want to kiss your stubborn mouth at the moment", the past and the present merge together, converging into the appearance of a girl, like her, but not like her.
It's just that this kind of emotion can only be expressed in singing.
In reality, no matter how brave you are, you can't say it.
Fang Xing took a deep breath, the melody rose again, and sang the last chorus:
"It rained all night and my love overflowed like rain.
"The leaves in the yard are thick with my thoughts.
A few words of right and wrong can't cool my enthusiasm.
"You appear on every page of my poems.
"All night, my love overflowed like rain.
"The ledge butterfly is like a beautiful chapter in a poem.
"I went on writing, and I wrote that I would love you forever at the end of the poem.
"You're the only thing I want to know."
Sing the whole song in one go.
seemed to be a gentle song, but Fang Xing tried his best to vent the emotions in his heart, and suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.
In the ears of the audience, the song is gentle, but the more you can understand the emotions in the song, the more you can feel the intensity of the feelings in the song.
This version sung by Fang Xing, at first glance, seems to be singing about the beauty of first love.
But in the song, it is full of more emotions, like simple emotions, but it is difficult to feel thoroughly.
The last note fell, and it took a long time before thunderous applause rang out from the audience.
Fang Xing stood on the stage and took a few deep breaths before turning to the Dongyin First Symphony Orchestra, placing his right hand on his chest and bowing in thanks.
Li Xiuqin returned the gift with the orchestra.
The applause of the audience never stopped.
Some viewers have even begun to wipe their tears, and the more audiences with stories, the more they can feel the emotions in the song, and the easier it is to be infected.
Meanwhile.
Kick the singer in the rest room.
The editor said aloud: "Li Siqi, you still have ten seconds to decide whether you want to kick the gym or not." Because this is the second competition, if you choose to give up, you will no longer have a chance later. ”
Li Siqi's expression was very solemn.
When he came, he was still very confident, but after listening to Fang Xing's song, the whole person was not good.
This song, in terms of emotion, is stronger than which song in the first scene.
However, he had no choice.
If I had listened to my agent before and changed my goal, the situation would not be as bad as it is now.
However, at this point, there is no choice.
Either give up, as if you've never been to the show, or you can only bite the bullet.
He gritted his teeth and reached out and slapped the kick button.
