Chapter 185: Special Guest
"The Strongest Singer" has reached its third season and has accumulated a lot of fans.
Because this is an extremely professional singer competition show, fans of this show also know a little bit about music.
Even, many netizens who haven't watched the show much know that this show is very well made, and the singers they are looking for are all well-known in the industry and have strong professional ability.
In fact, every singer who can be invited by "The Strongest Singer" will usher in a wave of explosive career after tens of thousands of programs.
In particular, the more you can go to the end, the more you can participate in the final singer competition, and the higher the popularity you will accumulate.
Many singers who were very powerful, but their careers were affected by Waterloo at that time, such as relatives being demons, hiding in the company, being framed by the same family, etc., which led to having to retire from the entertainment industry, after participating in this show, they all achieved a turnaround in fate.
Netizens have powerful singers who are very generous, and in the industry, this show is also known as the "explosive singer making machine"!
Among them, director Li Yi's vision in selecting singers has contributed a lot.
No one knows how he chooses the contestants.
Some singers are veteran kings who have been famous for a long time, while some singers are twilight heroes who once exploded and regretfully retired, and some may just be very new singers who have just stepped into the threshold of the first line......
There are many companies in the industry that want to stuff people on Li Yi's side, but they have not succeeded.
It's easy to say about program sponsorship and advertising, but in terms of selection, Li Yi doesn't allow others to interfere and say the same.
As soon as "The Strongest Singer" was launched this time, netizens were appreciating the beautiful singing voice, and at the same time, they also had a strong curiosity about the selection of this show.
[When I first saw the list of the show's first singers, I couldn't understand why Li Yi chose singers like this, the other singers are all veteran kings and queens, and their qualifications are not to be said, and they have been in the entertainment industry for decades. Compared with these veteran singers, Xue Shaoqian and Xu Liangliang are inevitably too young.
Later, when I saw that Xue Shaoqian acted as the host in the show, mobilizing the atmosphere of the show, I understood Director Li's intention in choosing Xue Shaoqian, he is indeed an excellent host, with a witty and humorous style.
And when it was his turn to perform with Xu Liangliang, they actually used the only opportunity to sing their own songs in the first scene, which was too unexpected! γ
[I'm curious about how these two singers will arrange their troops next, are they planning to be eliminated in the second round? γ
[I feel that the songs sung by those singers in the first round are not very energetic, and the adaptation is not very good, in comparison, Xue Shaoqian and Xu Liangliang sang their famous songs better, and the song adaptation is more magnificent! ] γ
β¦β¦
Xue Shaoqian and Xu Liangliang showed their hole cards in the first round of competition, which actually became the biggest discussion in the first episode of the show.
This is something they didn't expect, not even the program team.
Competing in the show is like raising Gu, putting excellent singers in a big grinding plate to fight together.
And on the online media channels outside the show, it is also like raising Gu, to see which contestant's topic can rise up first, and it is most likely to cause heat.
Li Yi does not have so much power to manipulate public opinion, especially in the entertainment industry, in the past few years, celebrities have been making waves for too long in order to occupy the headlines, and the state has introduced corresponding regulatory measures.
The hot search is not as good as it was a few years ago, and you can buy volume and topic unscrupulously.
Nowadays, the hot searches in the entertainment industry are often put on the Internet, and it is up to them to see which one can be fermented.
If some hot searches are exposed, it is just easier to be on the hot search, rather than steadily being able to be on the hot search.
This is also the reason why some media in the industry are very envious of Gu Che.
There are many topics related to Gu Che, and there is no need to buy them in hot searches, and there is a group of people who spontaneously discuss them.
Even if the degree of discussion is relatively weak, just a little exposure, it can suddenly become a breaking point.
Some time ago, there was a first-line female star who bought a hot search on the red carpet, and dozens of media outlets issued press releases, and the volume also went up, but the hot search could not climb to the top 50.
That's fate!
Li Yi is a showmaker, he doesn't care what kind of techniques those singers will use to stand out outside the show, as long as it doesn't affect the reputation of the program team.
When he received the information from the staff, he asked in surprise: "It was Xue Shaoqian and Xu Liangliang who took the lead, did they do any work?" β
The staff shook their heads, "No, when they were on the hot search, these two people's blogs and brokerage companies did not move." After discovering that they were on, they began to maintain the exposure. β
Li Yi thought for a moment and asked, "How are these two stars currently hot?" β
Staff: "It's all in the top five, and everyone is speculating about what songs they'll sing in the second round of competition." β
At the same time, not only Xue Shaoqian and Xu Liangliang exploded, but after this episode of the show was uploaded, when these two people appeared, the barrage was also the most.
[Woo woo, Xue Shaoqian's song is so old and classic, it awakens my childhood memories back! ] γ
[I remember Mr. Xu Liangliang's song ten years ago, it is too picture and memory! ] γ
[Compared with the songs of the other singers, they can't beat them at all! I don't feel it at all! γ
In the first round of competition, what you want is to play with momentum.
At present, only Xue Shaoqian and Xu Liangliang have played a momentum, and the other singers are not very good, the songs they choose are too mediocre, and the adaptations are not good enough.
Li Yi immediately made a decision: "Contact Xue Shaoqian and Xu Liangliang to ask them what they think about the second round of competition songs, and the show can give them a cooperation." β
After a pause, he added: "If they want to seek some preferential treatment, it's not impossible, as long as the songs they come up with are good enough." β
The repertoire of the singer's competition is selected by the singer himself, and the arrangement is also adapted by the singer's team.
At this point, the show does not have much to say, giving the singer full freedom.
Of course, if the singer wants the program team to change the song for them, it is not impossible, but they must be prepared in terms of quality.

Li Yi is essentially a variety show, he is not a musician.
The music orchestra that cooperates with the program team is only an orchestra, and it does not have much keen sense of smell in song adaptation.
On the other side, Gu Che is here.
He was listening to the final version of the song that Xue Shaoqian and Xu Liangliang sent him.
These two mentors have been grinding him for a while, and they are very diligent in recording songs, and they have to send several versions of songs every day.
Gu Che's mind has been echoing either the sound of these songs or the sound of Cantonese opera in the past few days, and he feels trapped in two different worlds.
is grinding like this, not to mention that these two teachers can't stand it, at least Gu Che can't stand it.
Fortunately, the hard work of these two people has paid off.
Just today, Gu Che decided on the final version of their song and sent his opinion over.
As soon as it was sent, he received the rehearsal scene of "Colored Black" from Zhou Fanxian!
Today is the fifth day of rehearsals for "Colored Black", and judging from the performance of the first day, on the fifth day, the band has finally figured out the song decently, but it is almost hot.
Gu Che said with great emotion: "Zhou Fan is good, he is very good at teaching people!" β
After receiving Gu Che's praise reply, Zhou Fanxian was even more motivated.
He turned his head to look at the band members resting in the open-air gym, clapped his hands and said, "It's almost time to break, let's continue rehearsals!" β
The gymnasium is the rehearsal venue that Zhou Fan first found for the band.
This gymnasium is a place where Zhou Fanxian often comes, because the facilities are relatively old, and in the open air, it will be very hot in summer, and it will soak the ground when it rains, and the drainage system is not very good, and it will take a long time to clean up the stagnant water, so there are not many people who come.
As soon as "Colored Black" said that he was going to find a place to rehearse outside, Zhou Fan first thought of this place.
There are not many people coming to the sports hall, and there is no external sound system, that is, there is no music, just "Color Black" used to rehearse, and it can also be used as a background music to help those teenagers and middle-aged people who play basketball.
As for whether it will be recognized and chased for an autograph or something......
I'm sorry, the band "Colored Black" is not so famous, and the people who go to the gym are either very young or a little old, and they don't watch variety shows much.
So these people, on the contrary, don't know this band very well.
Kill two birds with one stone!
No, it should kill three birds with one stone!
Zhou Fan first couldn't help but praise his resourcefulness!
Zhou Zicong stood up and asked, "Brother Fan, we have been practicing this song for a week, when can we record it?" β
Zhou Fanxian said rigorously: "It's only four days, I'm still practicing today, and I've only practiced for five days after today." As for recording songsβ"
He paused and said with great seriousness, "Are you teaching me how to do things as a professional mixer?" β
Zhou Zicong immediately shook his head and said: "No, no, we just feel that we have almost mastered it, and we want to record it quickly, so we can think about the next new song!" β
Zhou Fan raised his eyebrows first, "Almost?" Who told you about it? Your own feelings are not feelings, and they are far from it! β
He emphasized: ""Colored Black" is the group song of your debut, and it is also the name of your album, it is the title song, and it is a very important song, you must sing it well. For your own group song, you have to keep improving, and now you are just barely able to record it, do you rely on this song to be on the show and hit the charts? β
Zhou Zicong was said to be smart, and the other members also stood up from the ground.
"Can we still use this song to participate in the show?"
"Can you still rely on this song to hit the charts?"
"What kind of show are you on, do you want to PK with other bands?"
Zhou Fanxian sighed in his heart, he just bragged and bragged, and said it too smoothly together.
But.
He didn't receive any news from Gu Che!
As we all know, if a singer wants to release an album, he must go to a place to promote it, right?
Even Gu Che's album was released first through the platform of "I Am a Singer-Songwriter", and then included in the album in the follow-up.
The album "Colored Black" will be released when the time comes, I'm afraid I will have to participate in the show to promote it, right?
Thinking about it this way, Zhou Fanxian was also full of confidence.
He said solemnly: "You must be going to participate in the show, otherwise how will the album be promoted?" Now that you are familiar with the rehearsals, you can quickly awaken your muscle memory in the future, so be sure to make every song perfect! β
Zhou Fan waved his hand, "Let's rehearse for five more days, and enter the recording room with the most perfect posture!" β
Zhou Zicong and the others were infected by Zhou Fanxian's words, and shouted like chicken blood: "Rush!" β
After a while, the old gymnasium sounded the familiar BGM again, which was quite a kind of war song charge.
In the Feiyue Studio, a special guest was welcomed at this time.
This guest was brought in by the master Ding Taiqi.
After a while, the master called Gu Che and Kong Ping in.
After entering, a middle-aged lady dressed exquisitely was looking at them with a smile on her face.
The lady spoke, her voice sweet and gentle in a voice that didn't match her age.
"Is this Gu Che, he is really a talent, and he is only eight buckets."
Gu Che looked at the master with a puzzled expression, this is ......
"She is a fan of mine, and I have known you for decades, because she really can't find anyone who can find you, so she found me and wanted to ask if she could introduce her." β
Gu Che had a whole look on his face, the one who could find the way of the master was definitely not an ordinary person!
"Hello, I'm Gu Che."
The middle-aged woman said gently: "Hello, I'm Guan Meimei, I don't know if you recognize me, maybe when I sing, you haven't been born yet." β
Guan Meimei!
Gu Che's face changed slightly, the veteran diva Guan Meimei, who doesn't know?!
At first glance, Mr. Guan doesn't seem to have changed much, except for a little more traces of time on his face, and the voice is the same as the sound heard in the disc.
Gu Che hurriedly said: "My father is your fan, and I grew up listening to your songs!" β
Guan Meimei said with a smile: "Haha, there is such a relationship, I don't know if it will be easier to invite you to sing?" β
With a master in charge, Gu Che didn't dare to say much, Guan Meimei's invitation, he must have accepted it!
Gu Che originally thought that Guan Meimei, a veteran diva with deep qualifications, wanted to sing this time in order to re-emerge from the mountain.
But after listening carefully to Guan Meimei's request, he realized that he was wrong.
People really just want to sing a song.
I don't care if I want to chase the pop, I just want to live a singing hidden.
Guan Meimei said quietly: "I have heard your "Waiting for You to Return" and "Dream Back to the Hometown", which is quite a kind of singing style in my previous era, so I want to invite you to make a song in the previous style." β
"When people are old, the more they will miss the past, while my voice is okay now, and I can still sing, I want to sing, so as not to be able to sing in the future, and I will regret that I can't sing when I can still sing."
