Music Life (10)

The song selected by Ji Xiao was a song written by Gu Mang more than ten years ago. At that time, the song was not only popular all over the country, but also very popular abroad. This song is not only covered by many stars, but also often sung by contestants in singing competitions.

Because this song is not only very good, it is also a classic song that tests your singing skills. If you can sing it, you can prove the singer’s singing ability.

Because Gu Mang was still very young back then, the songs he composed were full of publicity. Because he was born well, he hardly suffered in life, so his lyrics have almost no sad content. At that time, the songs he composed, from the lyrics to the songs, were full of passion and positive energy.

Gu Mang has a strong background, and he has the ability and talent. In the past few years, whether singing or filming in the entertainment industry, it has been almost smooth sailing. But as he got older, he saw more and more things, and after he became mature, his various emotions about life also changed. Therefore, his music also began to gradually move towards a mature and stable style.

When Ji Xiao picked Gu Mang’s song, he already had a premonition that it might be difficult for him to get a high score this time, because this song really didn’t match his style at all. Since his debut, Ji Xiao has always been set in a gentle and elegant style, and he can’t express this unrestrained style. So he actually hoped to be able to sing the song Jingyang sang, but unfortunately, he was the first to draw a song, but he got the song he didn’t want to draw.

Gu Mang was really handsome, flamboyant and dazzling back then. When he stood on the stage, he would make the audience feel like they were seeing the sun, yearning but not dare to look directly. In the entertainment industry, there are really very few artists who are handsome but not annoying. If an artist is not humble enough on the stage, it is easy to be hacked and scolded, but only Gu Mang is another, this is his unique style.

When Ji Xiao stood on the stage, he made a hurried and quick prelude, which did not match his overall style. In particular, Gu Mang likes to add rock and roll style elements to his songs. In the process of singing, some parts need to be very explosive. All the audience are waiting to see how far Ji Xiao can achieve.

In the first few sentences, Ji Xiao sang fairly smoothly, but when it came to the high-pitched part, it was obvious that there was a gap with the original singing. It’s not that Ji Xiao can’t sing in high pitch. After all, he has also learned vocal music for so many years. The high pitch is not difficult for him, but it doesn’t take much effort to sing the high pitch like Gu Mang. It’s very difficult.

Because this is really a nice classic song, the listeners are also trying very hard to immerse themselves in the emotion of the song, but looking at Ji Xiao on stage, the discordant style makes it difficult for them to concentrate on listening. . Some audience members tried to close their eyes and not look at Ji Xiao on the stage, but they couldn’t help frowning when they got to the high-pitched part, and then opened their eyes.

It can be said that every listener has heard this song many times, and what Ji Xiao sings is not the feeling that has long been engraved in their memory.

The unique style of the original singing is too strong, which is a big challenge for cover singers. It is meaningless to imitate it completely. It is better to listen to the original singing directly. However, if you add your own style, it will make people feel that it is not as good as the style in the video, so although many people have covered this song before, the satisfaction of the audience is not high. It was quite unfortunate that Ji Xiao picked this song.

As soon as the song ended, the audience still gave him a warm applause, but Ji Xiao’s calm expression was reluctant to maintain.

The host walked up to Ji Xiao and said, “The last contestant Ji Xiao’s singing has ended. First of all, please ask Ms. Zhang Lanxin to comment.”

“Actually, I think his problem is quite obvious,” Zhang Lanxin said, “It can be heard that he has the ability to sing, but I think he may be very annoyed that he has chosen this song, because first of all this song In addition to being very difficult to sing, the style of the song is also very different from his own style. I personally think that maybe his singing skills are not bad, but there is no way to express it in this song. The difference is difficult to bridge.”

“Well, Ms. Zhang Lanxin’s evaluation is quite pertinent. I think she should have expressed the thoughts of most of the audience. At least my thoughts are similar to hers.” The host said “Then, let’s listen to Mr. Qi Huan’s evaluation.”

“His singing skills are as Zhang Lanxin said, he may not be able to show his true singing ability in this song.” Qi Huan said, “But I I don’t think his typhoon is very good. I don’t know if it’s because he is not used to the style of this song, or because he has too little experience in singing on stage. The emotional expression in the song is not very good, but it can’t move the audience. Emotions.”

“Okay, the above is Teacher Qi Huan’s evaluation.” The host suddenly made a solemn appearance and said, “Everyone, the next thing is the main event, let’s listen to the original singing is the evaluation.”

“This song I I’ve heard a lot of cover versions, this should be the worst I’ve ever heard.” Gu Mang just finished speaking, the host opened his mouth and made a long sound, looking at Ji Xiao with regretful eyes.

“The more I listen to it, the more I think he sings not the song I originally sang, but another song.” Gu Mang said, “In fact, even if he sings the same song, it doesn’t have to be exactly as I originally sang. If you sing in your own style, he can also make some changes in order to show his singing skills. In this way, even if he doesn’t sing my original style, he at least shows his own singing ability. But I think he works very hard. He wanted to imitate my style, but he couldn’t, so the result was a complete mess. This shows that his ability to adapt to singing is not good, and his singing skills are not solid enough, so when he encounters a style he is not good at, he will not know what to do with it.”

As soon as Gu Mang finished his evaluation, everyone felt that what he said was very reasonable, because although he was selfish, he did not use it. Whether it was Jing Yang or Ji Xiao, he really followed his own heart. Ratings and scores given by the most authentic thoughts.

“Okay, the three judges have already given their own evaluations, so now, ask the three judges to give the scores for the contestant Ji Xiao.” The host said.

Among the three judges, Gu Mang’s highest grade is also the highest, so he is the last when giving evaluations, but he is the first when giving scores.

Gu Mang gave a five-point score, which was not only lower than Jing Yang’s score, but also the highest among all the contestants.

Gu Mang is the original singer and is recognized as the strongest singer. When he gives a low score, the other two judges can score a little higher than him, but not too high or too low. So two other reviewers, one gave a six and one also gave a five.

“Five points, five points, six points, this is the evaluation score that contestant Ji Xiao got.” The host looked at Ji Xiao and asked, “Are you satisfied with such a score?”

“I, there are still shortcomings. A lot, thank the three judges for giving me evaluations and scores, I will work harder in the future.” Ji Xiao resisted his unwillingness and replied very officially.

“Okay, the last contestant has finished singing, the online voting has been opened, and now the audience can start voting. After an hour, we will count all the votes, and then announce the ranking of the first round.”

All The contestants were all waiting for the results in the lounge, and the three judges also returned to their respective lounges to rest. The live broadcast will continue after an hour.

As soon as Ji Xiao returned to the lounge, his face immediately became unbearable. He sat on the sofa, propped his forehead and recalled what Gu Mang had criticized him just now. He has studied vocal music for so many years, but now he has received comments that his singing skills are not solid. Even if he has great achievements in the future, this will be a stain on him forever. Unless his achievements can surpass Gu Mang, no matter how confident he is, he feels that the possibility of surpassing Gu Mang is too small.

Liu Hang didn’t say a word after seeing Ji Xiao come in, he patted him on the back and said, “Don’t worry too much, among all the contestants, you have the largest number of fans, even if you make a mistake this time, it will not be easy. They were surpassed by them.”

Ji Xiao originally felt that the style of songs he drew was not suitable for him, and even if he sang not very well, other audiences would definitely relax their demands on him because of this. When he heard the comments of the other two judges, Ji Xiao’s heart was not so uncomfortable, but Gu Mang’s comments made his mood completely drop to the bottom.

No matter how many Ji Xiao’s fans are, compared with Gu Mang’s, it’s not enough to watch. Besides, Gu Mang’s words are both authoritative and compelling, and passers-by and listeners will agree with him.

An hour later, the voting on the Internet stopped, the production team was counting the votes, and after another half an hour, all the contestants were standing on the stage.

The host held the hand card of the voting results and said, “The first round of voting has ended, and the ranking results are now in my hands. Apart from a few contestants, the audience at the scene and the audience watching the live broadcast are also very nervous. Want to know the ranking results, right?”

Because the total votes won by everyone is not displayed on the voting page, the audience is really curious about the results.

In a state where everyone was involuntarily nervous, the host announced from the last one.

In the fifth, fourth, and third places, Jing Yang and Ji Xiao did not appear, so in the end it was the two of them fighting for the first place.

Ji Xiao was so nervous that he could almost hear his heartbeat, his face turned pale uncontrollably, and he could no longer maintain his composure. Everyone could see that he was very nervous.

Compared with him, Jing Yang is very calm, even if he is familiar with him in the first round, he has absolute information that he can beat him in the last two rounds.

“There are still two rankings that have not been announced. Now I will directly announce who is the first.” The host deliberately made the atmosphere even more tense. “The first is, who is it?”

“The first place is the one with the most online votes…, Chu Yang!” the host said loudly to the cheers and applause of the audience, “The first place in the online vote, the first place in the audience’s vote, and the highest score from the judges. First place. The winner of the round is Chu Yang! Congratulations!”

Ji Xiao closed his eyes, although he already had a hunch, he was still unwilling to lose to Jing Yang, especially unwilling.

Although Ji Xiao had the highest number of points among all the contestants before the start of the competition, Jing Yang’s fans grew quite rapidly, especially the sudden increase of a lot of face fans. He voted more than Ji Xiao this time. one of the reasons.

Ji Xiao was able to rank second, thanks to those fans who had higher expectations for him. They felt that Ji Xiao was unlucky and didn’t choose a song he was good at, otherwise he would definitely perform better.
