Chapter 196: He Can Do Anything
The teams of the first public stage and the selection of songs for each team have been assigned.
Some groups got the song they wanted the most, and some groups chose the song that wasn't so good.
Lu Zhou's group was still uneasy until the end of the song selection.
They obviously had a lot of high-scoring members on the stage at the beginning, but because the members couldn't unify their opinions, they finally chose a song that most of the members were not satisfied with, and they all looked weird.
At the end of the song selection, Xue Xinyi passed by their group, walked over and said with a smile to Nan Qiao and He Biao: "Your group is so courageous, you actually chose "Men Should Be Self-Improvement". ”
Nan Qiao: "......"
He Biao: "......"
However, in fact, Lu Zhou was the only one in their group who had the courage......
After the song selection session, each team is divided into training rooms, and then the team discusses how to arrange the captain and discuss how to play the song selected by their team.
Regarding the adaptation of the song and the design idea of the stage, the team had to come up with a preliminary opinion, and then discuss with the stage planning team of the program team how to implement it.
Lu Zhou: "Who will be the captain?" ”
In the training room, Lu Zhou, Gu Li, He Biao, Nan Qiao, Wu Jing, Zhou Shuyu and Ruan Thi Qingtao, seven people sat in a circle, you look at me, I look at you, and the position of "captain" is entangled.
"Or, Brother Biao, will you come?" Lu Zhou looked at He Biao, the eldest in the team, and proposed.
He Biao, who was named, was stunned and quickly shook his head.
"I don't want to be a captain, I've always been alone, I haven't fought in a team battle, I have no experience as a captain, I'm afraid I can't be competent."
His expression and tone told everyone that he didn't look like a humble pretending to shirk, this was because he really didn't want to be the captain in his heart.
There was a brief silence in the training room, and for a moment no one volunteered.
Wu Jingxin said: Although being the captain will definitely be much more tiring than the team members, this is also a good opportunity to perform in front of the camera, do you want to stand up and try? But I have no stage experience, and I became the captain, can these people listen to me?
Hesitating, Wu Jing still decided not to take on this thankless extra job, not to mention it when he was tired, it was very likely that if he didn't do it well, he would offend people in the end.
He looked around, and finally his eyes fell on Nan Qiao, where she had the highest coffee position, and felt that everyone would still listen to what she said.
Wu Jing: "Sister Nan, why don't you come?" ”
When He Biao heard this, he felt that it was feasible, and also looked at Nan Qiao, "Yes, Nan Qiao, I feel that it is quite suitable for you to be the captain." ”
Nan Qiao: "Huh? "Me?" I don't have any experience with a team, and I don't know how the team should play this song, so it's not suitable for me to do it. ”
As she spoke, her gaze turned to Lu Zhou.
"Lu Zhou, you used to be a trainee of the men's team, and you must be more familiar with the team than we are, why don't you be the captain?"
Nan Qiao didn't want to be this captain.
One is because she personally doesn't like this song "Men Should Be Self-Improvement", this song is not her style, she feels that she can't play well, and she really doesn't have too many ideas about this song, even so, it's better not to come out of this;
The second is because she came to this show just a temporary decision on a whim, just to have fun, and she didn't plan to make herself too tired.
The program team came to invite her three or four times before, although the salary was reasonable, she had no intention of participating in this show, but then remembered that Lu Zhou was in this show, and Nan Qiao suddenly wanted to join in the fun, so she came.
When she came, she found that this kid Lu Zhou really gave her a different surprise, which made her feel that her choice to participate in this variety show was not in vain on the first day.
Captain, in fact, is a good opportunity to perform.
And Lu Zhou, who has been silent for too long, although he has become famous now because of a love show, but she feels that it is not enough, he is so versatile, he should let more people discover his talent and stand in a higher position.
Nan Qiaoda felt from the bottom of his heart that Lu Zhou was the most suitable person to take the position of captain here.
He Biao nodded in agreement: "Lu Zhou is very versatile, it is indeed suitable, and this song is also chosen by him, I believe it is more appropriate for him to be the captain." ”
Gu Li answered: "I also want to choose Lu Zhou as the captain." ”
Zhou Shuyu agreed with this proposal and said: "Brother Zhou is indeed very much like a captain. ”
Ruan's Qingtao relied on the translator in her ear to communicate, reacted slowly, and nodded, "I think so too." ”
"......" Lu Zhou laughed when he heard this, "What do you mean by being like a captain...... Does the captain still have a fixed template? ”
Zhou Shuyu scratched her head with a smile, "No, I mean you feel like you're our captain to me." ”
Nan Qiao smiled and said, "Everyone is looking forward to it, the minority obeys the majority, Lu Zhou, the captain is you." ”
Lu Zhou: "You don't need to ask my own opinion for this?" ”
Nan Qiao sneered before asking, "Then are you willing to lead us?" ”
Lu Zhou shrugged his shoulders and said, "Yes, just say it in advance, I may be stricter as the captain, you have to be mentally prepared." ”
Nan Qiao didn't care, and said with a smile: "It's good to be strict, I like a strict captain, strict can make progress." ”
Others also expressed no opinion.
In this way, Lu Zhou was selected as the captain of their group.
Next, the seven began to express their stage ideas on the song "Men Should Be Self-Improvement".
The adapted version provided to them by the creative team of the program team changed the song to a rhythm suitable for dance, and the stage design was a version of singing and dancing at the same time.
After reading Lu Zhou, their brows furrowed.
He Biao: "I can't dance...... This adaptation highlights the dance and weakens the power of singing, which is not friendly to me. ”
Nan Qiao: "I mainly think that this adaptation is quite different from the original, but there are no bright spots. This song, what I want is the original feelings, if you change it like this, the sense of substitution will be low, I think...... We're going to lose a lot of audience points. ”
Zhou Shuyu: "I also think that if you change it to this, it is better to sing the original version directly." ”
Gu Li: "I can add a rap." ”
Ruan Thi Qingtao didn't understand the so-called original feelings of this song, the original version she felt was suitable for men to sing, and she felt that girls could also control the adapted version, she expressed a different opinion: "I feel okay." ”
When Wu Jing heard this, he finally had someone with the same opinion as himself, and hurriedly followed: "I also think it's okay...... This version has been changed to be younger, and there is no such heavy sense of age, but I like it. ”
Nan Qiao smiled, looked at Wu Jing and said:
"That's the problem, if you don't have a sense of age, you can't sell feelings, and the highlight of the stage will fall on the dance, but its dance design is not particularly interesting, so we will play PK with other groups' songs, and it is likely to fall into disadvantage."
Wu Jing was a halfway monk, and he didn't have much confidence in his own views, but when Nan Qiao said this, his face suddenly became hot, and he felt that he was an outsider who didn't understand the stage at all, but he entered it randomly.
In order not to look so ignorant in front of the camera, Wu Jing hurriedly said with a smile:
"Didn't you say that we could change the stage design ourselves? Since the dance is not enough, then Sister Nan helped us redesign a dance, Sister Nan sings and dances so well, this should be trivial, right? ”
When Nan Qiao heard this, his face was slightly embarrassed, "I haven't studied choreography. ”
There was a brief dead silence in the practice room.
Wu Jing's speech really showed his layman.
But he didn't know it himself, he always thought that people who were good at dancing would definitely choreograph.
However, this does not seem to be the case......
It's a big embarrassment.
"There's a difference between a dance performer and a choreographer." Lu Zhou broke the silence with a smile, "Choreographers definitely know how to dance, but dancers don't necessarily know how to choreograph." ”
"This dance really needs to be changed again, and we can ask an experienced choreographer for some advice."
Saying that, Lu Zhou didn't leave Wu Jing time to be embarrassed, and then expressed his opinion.
"My personal suggestion for the song is not to follow the adapted version provided by the program team, I think you can keep most of the style of the original song unchanged, and then change a melody suitable for dancing in the interlude."
"In terms of stage design, simple group dance + singing may seem monotonous and not innovative enough on the stage, or we will find a way to incorporate other interesting elements to enrich the stage."
"Although we are a group, this show is actually very free to play, and it is not stipulated that it must follow the model that men's and women's groups often follow, we can diversify and integrate into the band style or other styles."
After listening to Lu Zhou's words, He Biao said, "You mean to add musical instruments, right?" ”
Lu Zhou smiled and nodded: "If you add the instrument just right, if you play it well, it will be a big plus on the stage." ”
This is indeed ...... Lu Zhou's point of view was unanimously recognized by everyone, after all, the stage he broadcast live before confirmed his point of view.
Gu Li's face was uneasy, "Is it that everyone wants to play musical instruments?" But I'm not very good at ......."
Wu Jing echoed: "I ...... too No. ”
Nguyen Thi Thanh Peach: "I can contribute to the piano performance. ”
Lu Zhou looked at her when he heard this, and smiled regretfully: "The piano is not suitable to be the main instrument of this song." ”
He Biao: "It's really not suitable. ”
Ruan Shi Qingtao was stunned, blinked and asked, "Then what is suitable?" ”
Lu Zhou pursed his lips, looked around the rest of the people silently, and slowly replied: "Drums, suona, guzheng, flute......"
Everyone: "......"
It's hard for them to play with these instruments......
Nan Qiao noticed everyone's indescribable expressions, and said with a smile: "Otherwise, let's go back to dancing, I know a famous choreographer in China, you can ask him to choreograph a more creative dance for us as much as possible, we practice hard, it shouldn't be bad." ”
Wu Jing: "That dare is good, it's up to Sister Nan." ”
Lu Zhou didn't approve of it and began to pour cold water:
"If that's the case, then I'm afraid the time of our dance will have to be extended, and the proportion of people in our team who can't dance is too heavy, and I want everyone to cooperate to dance a long dance well, which is not low."
"Moreover, if you want to sing this song well, it is difficult in itself, and in the case of the proportion of dance, it is even more difficult for members who are not singers and dancers to sing well in the case of dancing."
"It's going to be a live stage, you know."
Lu Zhou means: There are no millions of sound repairers for everyone to repair the late stage, this kind of full-open mic scene, singing and dancing singers who are not very good at basic skills, want to sing good songs while dancing well, it's a dream......
He Biao, Zhou Shuyu, Gu Li, Wu Jing, and Ruan Shi Qingtao, who couldn't dance, fell silent again.
As a singing and dancing singer, Nan Qiao knows very well how difficult it is for ordinary singers to play well on the singing and dancing stage.
Looking at the members in front of him who were not good at dancing, Nan Qiao said in his heart:
Teamwork, there are so many bugs...... It's not about overcoming your own shortcomings at all, but ...... Even the shortcomings of others should be considered.
She suddenly felt that it was not easy to play well in the men's and women's groups.
Seeing that everyone was speechless for a while, Lu Zhou said:
"Otherwise, why don't we each talk about what we're good at?"
When Wu Jing heard this, his face was slightly gloomy.
Ah, I hate this kind of link the most.
What are you good at? The devil knows what I'm good at......
Do you have to be good at something? Speechless.
And Lu Zhou asked this, just to find out their own characteristics and plan the stage.
Zhou Shuyu was very cooperative, and when she heard Lu Zhou's question, she covered her mouth and replied with a snicker: "I just seem to be good at singing...... But it seems that everyone here is good at singing......"
Wu Jingxin said: No, I'm not good at ......
Gu Li was happy, "I seem to be only good at rapping." ”
Lu Zhou looked at them with a smile and said, "Vocal music is not counted, you can talk about musical instruments, martial arts, dance, opera and other additional talents." ”
Zhou Shuyu touched the back of her head and laughed, "In terms of musical instruments, I can only play guitar and piano, but I am not good at it." Dance is really not good. ”
After listening to Zhou Shuyu's words, Ruan Shi Qingtao had a feeling of finding a confidant, she hugged her arm and said, "I'm like you, I'm like this." ”
Gu Li next to him made an embarrassed face and said, "I don't seem to be very good at musical instruments...... If you don't skip the dance, the opera won't ......"
Lu Zhou nodded, looked at He Biao, who was silent, and asked, "Brother Biao, what about you?" ”
He Biao touched his chin, pondered for a moment, and said: "Piano and guitar are more proficient, and the saxophone knows a little. ”
Lu Zhou: "What about Sister Nan?" ”
"Me?" Nan Qiao let out a long "um", as if looking back on the instrument he had learned, and said after a while:
"I know a little bit of guitar, drums, violin, flute, and then dance is what I'm good at, jazz dance, modern dance, and folk dance."
Ruan's Qingtao let out a "wow", applauded lightly, and said, "There are so many talents, so powerful." ”
Nan Qiao smiled at her and said, "It's okay too." ”
Lu Zhou: "Wu Jing, it's your turn." ”
Wu Jing was named, he was stunned, and his heart was inexplicably impetuous, but after all, he couldn't escape this catastrophe, and he still had to face it.
"I ......," he said, smiling embarrassedly, "I'm not good at instrumentation or dancing...... I have practiced simple dances, but my basic skills need to be strengthened. ”
Lu Zhou looked at him, but he didn't expect him to be quite sincere. I can't sing it, and I can't do anything else, it's a bit difficult.
"Anything else? It's not just about musical instruments and dancing. He encouraged.
There is no way, if you can't find a bright spot in Wu Jing, then it is easy for him to lose his characteristics in the team, and with his level, it is likely to drag down the expressiveness of the entire team.
Therefore, it is also very important to find the highlights that Wu Jing can play.
"Other ......" Wu Jing frowned and thought for a long time, and suddenly said: "I learned lion dance when I was a child, is this counted?" ”
Everyone looked over in amazement.
Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows, "You can do lion dance?" ”
Wu Jing nodded, but he didn't have much confidence, and said, "I learned it when I was a child, but I haven't touched it for many years...... I guess it's all rusty. ”
Lu Zhou suddenly clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Very good, you can practice, you suddenly gave me an inspiration, we can add lion dance elements, which is very suitable for this song." ”
He Biao was also eye-catching, "You can really play, it's a big feature." ”
Nan Qiao agreed, saying, "This is good. ”
With the unanimous approval of these insiders, Wu Jing didn't expect that he could still play this role, and his spine suddenly straightened.
He thought for a while and said, "The lion dance requires two people to cooperate, one lion head and one lion tail, I can be the lion head, who will be the lion tail?" ”
The ladies looked at the only four men present, obviously not intending to participate in this kind of session.
He Biao spread his hands: "I don't know anything about lion dance. ”
Wu Jing came confidently, "It's not difficult, you can learn." ”
He Biao was obviously not interested in the lion dance, wrapped in the lion's tail, and his head was spinning there, and the limelight was robbed of the lion's head, this performance was not only meaningless but also tiring for him, so it was better to play a musical instrument.
How can you say that he is also a senior in the industry, his identity is here, is it possible to come to this show to perform like this? Kill or die.
And Gu Li also thought of this layer.
He is a freelance singer who has not become famous, and he doesn't want to be a foil for traffic artists...... Playing this is not good for him, it's better to do what you're good at, one public is an elimination system, and if you don't get it right, you can't continue...... He's not stupid.
Gu Li silently looked away, avoiding Wu Jing's gaze.
In the end, Wu Jing's gaze fell on Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou: "......"
Seeing this scene, Nan Qiao couldn't help but smile, and said playfully: "Lion Tail can actually borrow a backup dancer to play the role, don't you have to choose from our members." ”
However, at this time, Lu Zhou suddenly said: "Lion tail, I'll come." ”
Nan Qiao: "??? ”
Wu Jing was stunned, in fact, he thought it was okay for Nan Qiao's proposal just now, and he was about to agree, after all, he didn't think that Lu Zhou would be willing to dance the lion with him, but he didn't expect the result to be unexpected.
Now, after the show is broadcast, there will definitely be no shortage of hype topics between him and Lu Zhou. Wu Jing thought.
Lu Zhou looked at Wu Jing and said, "The lion dance on the pile is only interesting, do you dare to challenge?" ”
When everyone heard this, they immediately looked at Lu Zhou: "?!" ”
The corners of Wu Jing's mouth trembled, and he suddenly felt that Lu Zhou was so thick that the sky was high.
"You haven't practiced lion dance yet, so you don't know how difficult it is to get on the pile, right? If you want to go on a high pile, do you know how long it takes to practice? ”
Saying this, Wu Jing even wanted to laugh out loud.
The other contestants secretly pinched a cold sweat for this face.
But Wu Jing is not wrong, it is indeed difficult to get on the pile lion dance! No kidding! If ordinary people have just learned, it is good to be able to dance the lion dance to the passing line, and they still want to play on the pile?
Lu Zhou did underestimate the lion dance in this area, or he was too self-conscious!
The scene became awkward for a moment.
"Of course I know, I learned lion dance from my grandfather when I was a child."
Lu Zhou suddenly opened his mouth in an inexplicable silent atmosphere.
Wu Jing: "??? ”
Lu Zhou: "Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to mention that my grandfather used to be a famous lion dance instructor in our town. ”
Everyone: "?! ”
