Chapter 56: Performance

As an amateur, we usually sing a song, no matter whether the tune is right or not, whether the lyrics are wrong, as long as we can sing it and the emotions are in place, we can say that we have learned it, and we dare to show our singing voice in KTV.

But participating in professional competitions and performances is different.

Even if "Avenue of Stars" claims to be based on the people's stage, there is no threshold or distance, and most of the people invited are non-music professionals in the entertainment industry as judges, but you still can't deny that it is essentially a song singing competition.

In the song singing competition, the final test is still a singer's musical literacy. And on a nationally hit program like "Avenue of Stars", singers need to show their musical literacy to the national audience.

Lin Shan had already suffered a loss, when he was in a hurry at the "Young Singer Championship", and was finally eliminated in the preliminary round. But Zhou Cheng in "Avenue of Stars" went to Zhou Champion, and he had higher requirements for Lin Shan. That's why Zhou Cheng asked him to stop all commercial performances and spend ten days to perfectly master this song that is completely different from his previous style.

Fortunately, after Lin Shan lost the competition last year, Zhou Cheng found him a professional teacher for training, and under Feng Chong's careful guidance, Lin Shan still completed the task excellently. Zhou Cheng listened to and confirmed it repeatedly in Feng Chong before expressing his satisfaction.

"The songwriter of this song is you, and this is the song you wrote based on your own feelings. Don't miss it. ”

On July 26, on the way to the CCTV studio, Zhou Cheng once again admonished Lin Shan.

Although if the copyright of such a song is sold, it can probably be sold for 50,000 to 100,000 yuan. If Zhou Cheng is a little more famous, he may be able to sell for more than 100,000 yuan. But Zhou Cheng still did not hesitate to register its author as Lin Shan. Because of a singer-songwriter, he can be appreciated by the judges of "Avenue of Stars".

And Zhou Cheng knows that the pattern of being a man must be big. I believe that when Lin Shan becomes famous, the benefits he will bring him will definitely be more than this.

Seeing Lin Shan's slightly reluctant expression, Zhou Cheng told again: "And this time it's a CCTV stage, you must not make a mistake, if you haven't been able to seize this opportunity, you won't be thinking about fame in the future." ”

"Brother Cheng, Lin Shan won't." Fang Qianqian, who also came with her, helped Lin Shan make a promise: "He has been contacting very hard in the past few days, just for this opportunity." Daisen will definitely seize this opportunity. ”

Fang Qianqian held Lin Shan's hand slightly, and also reminded Lin Shan, he also understood that this was his last chance, seeing Zhou Cheng's serious expression, he knew that he was waiting for his statement, and hurriedly said: "Brother Cheng, I will definitely work hard this time, and I will not let you down." ”

"That's good." Zhou Cheng finally smiled and continued to advise him: "You must remember what I taught you in the past two days, we have basically simulated the question of Teacher Bi's interview with you, you can be more subtle, and your expression should be more melancholy." ”

These questions are the answers that Zhou Cheng summed up after watching "Avenue of Stars" repeatedly in the past few days. Including what kind of questions Mr. Bi asked, what kind of tone and what kind of wording Lin Shan should use to answer, Zhou Cheng printed it all into a draft, and asked Lin Shan to memorize it.

Despite Shen Chuan's help, Zhou Cheng still hopes to be foolproof. It's just that Zhou Cheng was worried that Lin Shan's performance had not been studied, and there would be a difference in his demeanor, so he specially explained.

Lin Shan nodded. In fact, this point does not need to be done weekly, Lin Shan is very experienced, when he was in the bar, he relied on his melancholy performance to attract the likes of many customers, especially some girls who think they are very bourgeoisie, and they don't want to be obsessed with him.

Zhou Cheng also hopes to take advantage of this show to establish a "melancholy prince" character for Lin Shan. And in order to make Lin Shan famous this time, Zhou Cheng is also ready to spend money to buy an online water army on the day of the broadcast, and cooperate with this song released on the online platform to make him popular in one fell swoop.

Zhou Cheng continued to explain to him: "I checked and filled in the gaps again last night, I don't know if Mr. Bi will ask you how you feel after participating in the competition last time, after all, you were about to make the finals." If you really ask this question, you must say that you have no regrets about challenging Chen Haoming. For losing to him, you must also show that you are convinced, the other party is now popular, and you can also rub a little heat. In addition, you can say that you have been working hard during this time, which is why you wrote this song. Your attitude is like the song you sing, live hard. ”

"Brother Cheng, are you worried that Dashan will show an unconvinced attitude on the stage?" Fang Qianqian was the first to understand Zhou Cheng's intentions.

"Yes." Zhou Cheng nodded and explained to Lin Shan, who was a little confused: "Chen Haoming, as the most powerful contender for the super male championship this time, has a lot of fans. And most of them are brain-dead fans of boys and girls. If you show that the other person is just that, his fans will definitely worry that your comments will affect him to win the championship and collectively boycott you and smear you. It will have a great impact on you when the time comes. ”

"I see." Despite his reluctance, Lin Shan nodded and said that he would do so.

Zhou Cheng saw Lin Shan's mentality, and comforted him: "Bear with the calm for a while, wait for you to really become famous this time, and after you have your own fan base, you will fight back." At that time, even if you lose, no one will say that you are not able to hit a stone with an egg. ”

Lin Shan once lost to Chen Haoming, and Zhou Cheng would not let go of the opportunity to rub the heat.

In another world, Chen Haoming only won the fourth place in the super man, but the support of this world Maihe Company for him should be running for the championship and runner-up. When the time comes, there is nothing wrong with Lin Shan following the heat, but the method of rubbing the heat must be appropriate, and you can't rush up hard, in case the other party finds out, with Lin Shan's current reputation, he will definitely be bombarded into scum.

Seeing that everything had been explained clearly, Zhou Cheng still gave Lin Shan another advice: "If there are questions beyond those I prepared for you, you must think about it before answering, don't blurt it out." If you really encounter a tricky question, you can treat it with silence and never answer it with assertions. ”

Today's recording is extremely critical for Lin Shan, and it is also a crucial battle for Zhou Cheng.

In this battle, Zhou Cheng has already combined his understanding of the broker industry with some experience from another world to be foolproof. Only when Lin Shan is really launched can Zhou Cheng have the confidence to sign other artists. Otherwise, Zhou Cheng decided to leave this industry and specialize in being a screenwriter or producer, so as not to delay the future of others.

Coming to the CCTV studio hall, Zhou Cheng accompanied Lin Shan to first report, extract the order of the stage, submit the song accompaniment, and then put on makeup, change the costumes of the performance, and so on. Zhou Cheng was like an assistant, and after ensuring that nothing was lost in this series of work, he sent Lin Shan to the waiting area. Several other contestants have already arrived.

The recording of the program started at two o'clock in the afternoon, during which Shen Chuan, as the program director, and Mr. Bi, the producer, also came to the waiting area to inspect, and more to communicate with several contestants, mainly to comfort them and let them not be too nervous, so as to ensure the recording effect of the program.

Zhou Cheng did not communicate with Shen Chuan, except for fear of being discovered by someone with a heart and unwilling to break the news to the outside world. Another reason is that Zhou Cheng took advantage of this time to learn about several contestants in this game, and did not find a singer who became famous through this show in another world, it seems that even if Lin Shan wins this game, it should not be a problem.

At half past one in the afternoon, the audience participating in the recording began to enter the venue, and after Zhou Cheng and Lin Shan explained a sentence again, they took Fang Qianqian to the audience, leaving Lin Shan alone to sit in a corner position and close his eyes to recuperate, looking a little alone.

"Hello Lin Shan, I'm No. 2 player Han Doudou, it's nice to meet you." A girl interrupted Lin Shan's state of recuperation.

"Hello." Lin Shan just nodded in response.

Although Zhou Cheng didn't know this girl, Lin Shan had contact with her, this was a well-known underground singer from Chang'an, but she was playing in a band, and she was in a relationship with the bearded man who was called Dafang over there.

The girl touched a soft nail, felt a little unhappy, and when she returned to her band, she began to whisper: "Arrogant what? It wasn't like I couldn't do enough last time and was eliminated, but maybe the first link will go home this time. ”

"Say a few words, pay attention to the impact, and be captured by the camera."

"I just can't get used to him like that, and he pretends to be deep ...... there at every turn."

"I'm the 4th today, I said sister, what's the situation with that buddy?"

"What's going on? It's the last time I participated in ......."

Although the discussion of several people was as low as possible, they still couldn't escape Lin Shan's ears, and the depression in their hearts was also increasing.

"Oh...... Welcome to the Avenue of Fame, let's invite the five contestants tonight to make their debut...... "Fortunately, there was no delay in the whole waiting room, and with Mr. Bi's iconic opening remarks, the game finally kicked off.

The performance went smoothly, and after each game, Mr. Bi would conduct some interviews with the contestants, and then check with the director whether the footage that had just been recorded needed to be adjusted or re-recorded. After the perfect end of Yipa, it will be the turn of the next player to take the stage, and Lin Shan, who is the No. 5, will be the last to appear.

After the cheerful performance of the fat brothers on the 4th, the stage darkened, and after nearly an hour of recording, it was finally Lin Shan's turn to appear.

A melodious and soulful accompaniment sounded, and Lin Shan, who sat on a bar counter, rose from the golden bottom of the Avenue of Stars, and entered the camera under the illumination of a chasing light: "Will you remember ...... tomorrow?"

This familiar and classic old song instantly brought the hundreds of viewers back to their youthful student days.

The original version of the old wolf's singing has the regret of missing and the blessing of being late, but in this version he adapted for Lin Shan, it is more about the regret of loss and the loneliness of loneliness. Under the infection of Lin Shan's melancholy expression and cold voice, several sensual girls at the scene were even secretly wiping their tears, wondering if they were missing the lost love.

Looking at the performance of the audience, Zhou Cheng knew that Lin Shan's step had been taken.
