Chapter 113 Recording
time flies.
In the blink of an eye, the day of recording "I am the King of Singer II" came.
The promotional effect of this program far exceeds that of "The Birth of a Group". Every participating singer has its own traffic. As soon as they posted on Weibo to promote the show, not many people bought the program's hot searches. All the hot search lists were News about the show.
The seven competing singers and three surprise singers all arrived at the hotel arranged by the program team in advance.
Lin Zhixing had something to deal with temporarily, so he didn't rush there. Instead, he got on a plane to Shanghai in the early morning of the recording day.
As assistants at Good Luck Studio, Dong Chen and Ji Yu also participated in the trip.
On the plane.
Song Ge sat by the window. This was her first time flying. After taking off, she looked out the window, feeling both novel and a little scared.
"Xiao Dong, you can do some research online. Let's rent a car later."
Lin Zhixing patted Dong Chen in the front seat and said, "It's convenient to rent a car to go anywhere. Let's just treat this trip as an outing, shopping and eating."
"Brother Lin, you have to be confident! Don't always have the mentality of a round trip. Rent a Mercedes Benz or a BMW?"
Lin Zhixing glanced at Dong Chen who was grinning crookedly, "Baojun is pretty good, the cheaper the better, as long as it can be used for transportation."
"Support! We should save money and save money!"
After Ji Yu agreed, she turned around and asked Song Ge, who was looking out the window, "Gege, are you nervous about flying for the first time?"
"A little."
Song Ge touched the seat belt and nodded with a smile.
Ji Yu shrugged her shoulders and sighed softly, "It's not my first time to sit, but I get nervous every time. If it weren't for time, I really wouldn't want to sit."
When she turned back, Lin Zhixing glanced at Song Ge's small white hand that was holding the seat belt, and slowly stretched out his hand to cover it.
Song Ge saw his hand reaching out little by little, and when he touched the back of his hand, he raised his eyes and looked at him in surprise.
"Are you still nervous?"
Lin Zhixing asked with a smile.
The corners of Song Ge's mouth turned up in an imperceptible arc. After a moment of silence, he nodded heavily.
"oh."
Lin Zhixing thought thoughtfully for a while, then pulled her hand over and held it tightly, "What about this?"
Feel the temperature in the palm of your hand...
Two shallow dimples appeared on Song Ge's crimson cheeks. She moved her clenched hands and inserted each finger along the gaps between her fingers.
Then he pursed his lips and smiled a little proudly, and whispered something into his ear.
"I'm not nervous this time!"
"Okay, then I'll let you guide me all the way."
After Lin Zhixing finished speaking with a grin, he clenched his little hands and leaned comfortably on the back of the chair, closing his eyes and concentrating.
At this moment, he suddenly understood the song "Hello in the World".
When it comes to martial arts, one mountain is higher than the other. Just like fame and fortune now, martial arts reaches a new height and a new mountain will stand in front of you.
The fame and fortune that I have been pursuing all my life are all in vain in the end.
True love is as high as the sky, surpassing those mountains of fame and wealth, and is good in thousands of ways.
The best in the world is always "you".
Thinking of this, Lin Zhixing was touched by this song. It was worthy of being written by teacher "Huang Zhan".
Martial arts is just superficial, this turns out to be a "love song"!
…
…
After a two-hour journey, Lin Zhixing and his party arrived at the Shanghai Airport. They also had breakfast on the plane, which was quite good.
With the popularity of the "Jinghong" album, Dong Chen and Ji Yu also became popular, and the two-person mask team became a four-person mask team.
Lin Zhixing, dragging his suitcase in front, turned and asked, "Has the car rental been settled?"
Dong Chen nodded, "Okay, let's go to the car rental point first, and then drive to the hotel."
"good."
…
The four of them took a taxi to the car rental point first.
Dong Chen rented a manual transmission Santana. It looked like it was at least ten years old, and he followed the advice of "save the province for the flowers".
"Brother Lin, come up!"
Dong Chen sat in the driver's seat and waved to Lin Zhixing who had put away his luggage.
As soon as Lin Zhixing got into the car, he heard Dong Chen muttering next to him, "How do the clutch and accelerator work together to start? Should the clutch come first or the accelerator first?"
"..."
Lin Zhixing froze after hearing this, "Both feet were taking screenshots of the car at the same time."
"Hahaha!"
Ji Yu, who was sitting in the back row, laughed like crazy, raised her head and slapped her boyfriend, "Get out of here and let Brother Lin drive!"
"okay."
Dong Chen rubbed the back of his head, opened the door and went to the passenger seat.
Lin Zhixing searched the hotel map, put his phone on the holder, and started the car.
While driving, he was very emotional.
This is the first time to drive a car after time traveling. In order to complete the feat of four people traveling across time, we currently need a song from "Interstellar" and a dump truck that needs to improve performance.
…
There was a bit of a traffic jam in the big city, and after driving for more than half an hour, it took four people to get to the hotel arranged by the program team.
I had said hello to the program team before, and the program team arranged a large two-bedroom suite, which was very luxurious.
Just as I packed my luggage, there was a knock on the door.
Lin Zhixing went to open the door and saw that it was a member of the program crew.
"Hello Fengqi Wutong, Director Hong would like to meet you."
"Oh, okay, now?"
"Yes."
Lin Zhixing nodded, immediately called Song Ge, and followed the staff member to a room.
"Hello, Director Hong!"
"Director Ji, why are you here?"
Next to the shiny bald director Hong Bo, Ji Lei was waving and smiling, which surprised Lin Zhixing and Song Ge.
"I am now the assistant director of "I Am the King of Singer". Is it surprising?"
Ji Lei pointed at the two people and introduced with a proud look on his face: "Lao Hong, this is Fengqi Wutong that I often praise. How about it?"
"marvelous"
Hong Bo smiled and gave a thumbs up, "What a talented man and beautiful woman! Stop standing and sit down."
"You two are my most promising newcomers this year!"
After they sat down, Hong Bo didn't say much and went straight to the topic, "Our program "I Am the King of Singer", where old, middle-aged and young singers compete on the same stage, has always been our theme, so we have invited you to participate. Do you know anything about this show?"
Lin Zhixing gave a thumbs up and nodded, "Yes, this show is so famous that it's all on Weibo's hot searches."
"Since you know this show, I will keep it short."
Hong Bo adjusted his glasses and said bluntly: "I'm calling you here mainly for two things. I need to record a short interview video at two o'clock in the afternoon, and I need to meet the seven singers competing at 2:30."
"One more thing is that in order to make the broadcast effect better, you need to watch some feedback from other singers when they are singing. Especially for a young singer like you, you should be appropriately exaggerated."
Many music variety shows on the planet require acting skills. The variety show with the best acting skills is recognized as a certain voice, and the worst one is a certain masked music variety show.
They clearly knew who the guest was, but for the sake of the show's effect, they frantically eliminated wrong answers. It was a funny group.
Hong Bo arranged this task for himself. Lin Zhixing was not surprised at all, but Song Ge next to him was a little worried. She was not good at this.
Lin Zhixing smiled and made an OK gesture, "No problem, it's just like cross talk!"
"Yeah!"
Hong Bo nodded with satisfaction.
After chatting for a while and saying goodbye to Hong Bo, Ji Lei personally sent the two of them out and encouraged him in a low voice: "Come on, I don't even think much of you. You are trying to gain reputation for our program!"
"Don't worry."
Lin Zhixing patted his chest confidently.
In fact, I have no confidence at all. The opponents are too strong. It is difficult to imagine that I can advance smoothly. I can only say...
"I promise not to cry if I lose, okay?"
…
…
After returning to the room, Lin Zhixing thought over and over again and posted a Weibo message.
【Every mountain is higher than the other, look up! 】The accompanying picture is a picture of a person looking up at the mountains.
I posted this Weibo, firstly, to coordinate with the song "The World Is Always Hello" that I will sing tonight, and secondly, to find a place for myself to step down.
Compare your opponents to mountains, and humbly say that you are at the bottom of the mountain, so losing will not be too embarrassing.
This Weibo was posted and fans laughed wildly.
"Oh brother, pretend it's not your style!"
"Hahaha, I understand, the king is scared!"
"I understand. After all, this is a cross-level fight. Just try your best to be yourself. We will always support you!"
…
It's exactly two o'clock in the afternoon.
Lin Zhixing and Song Ge met with the filming crew and the music teacher, and learned that the song to be sung was a song with "chivalrous" elements.
During the filming session, the filming director specially found a popular martial arts novel for Lin Zhixing. The first scene showed Lin Zhixing sitting on a chair and reading the novel.
After the whole process, Lin Zhixing was particularly impressed. This pilot film gave him a very reasonable explanation for the song he was going to sing.
…
2:20 p.m.
Lin Zhixing and Song Ge came to the singer meeting room arranged by the program team in advance. Hong Bo arranged this because he wanted the singers to say hello before the game. There were no filming staff in the room.
Lin Zhixing came ten minutes early because he was the most junior and should say hello to his seniors.
Unexpectedly, I saw a familiar face as soon as I entered the room.
With long wavy hair and a white pleated skirt, it is none other than the sweet-looking Zhao Weiwei, who is currently chatting with her partner.
Her partner is named Yu Jiang. He is wearing a black suit, tall and stylish, with a slicked back haircut, and looks very handsome.
The two-person group "Ku Miao" is very famous among the music duo groups and has many popular songs.
"Xiao Lin! Xiao Song!"
After the door opened, Zhao Weiwei recognized Lin Zhixing and Song Ge at a glance, and immediately stood up with a smile to greet them.
"Sister Weiwei!"
This is the mentor who always rated herself first in "The Birth of a Group". Lin Zhixing and Song Ge thanked her very much. It felt like meeting a relative.
"I never thought that one day you two would become my rival."
Zhao Weiwei smiled and gave a thumbs up, and then introduced her partner, "My partner is Yu Jiang, you can just call me Brother Yu!"
"Brother Yu! I've heard of you for a long time, you are a role model for me to learn from!"
Yu Jiang smiled and waved his hand, "Thank you, thank you, brothers and sisters, sit down!"
The four people had just chatted when the door opened again and a handsome man wearing a bright blue suit and a haircut came in.
"Old Pan!"
Yu Jiang smiled and stretched out his hand to say hello.
Lao Pan?
Lin Zhixing looked carefully and realized that this person should be Pan Shuai, the Taicheng rapper known as "the fastest rapper".
This name, coupled with the element of rap, reminded him of the rapper in his previous life, "Pan Wilber" who was as good as Jay Chou at his peak. Because of his handsome appearance, he was nicknamed "Pan Shuai" by his fans.
Lin Zhixing had heard his rapping before the competition. He was indeed very fierce and a formidable opponent.
Listening to the chat between Yu Jiang and Pan Shuai, I learned that they met at an awards party, but it was obvious that they were not too familiar with each other, they just knew each other.
"Here, let me introduce you two!"
Yu Jiang smiled and introduced: "Shuai Pan, you two can just call me Brother Pan. They are Fengqi Wutong."
"Brother Pan!"
"Wow, are you Fengqi Wutong?"
After shaking hands, Pan Shuai stared at Lin Zhixing and asked with a smile: "You are Brother Ye, right? I like your song "Mountains and Rivers" very much!"
"No, just call me Xiaolin."
Lin Zhixing smiled and waved his hand, feeling very happy. He didn't expect to know his nickname and song.
Chatted for a while.
Lin Zhixing's buttocks were just touching the chair.
【Ding! 】
[The simple system task has been completed. Congratulations to the host for getting the song "Happy Worship". 】
The system beep sounded in my mind, and all the memories about this song were restored.
Is the like task completed?
The song "Happy Worship" was sung by singers Wilber Pan and Angela Chang. The original song was "Come on" by the Bangzi Kingdom Turtle Group. The style was also Hip-Hop. Later, after the song was purchased, the famous lyricist "Lin Xi" wrote the song The song has lyrics.
In that era, it was very common to buy copyrights for cover versions. There were relatively few songs from Gaibangzi, but songs from Gaibang were the most popular in the Hong Kong music scene. The four kings combined to cover 79 songs.
There are too many like "Thousands of Que Songs", "The Easily Wounded Woman", "Moonlight Serenade", "Walking on the Road of Life" and "The Wind Keeps Blowing".
Some people say that Aunt Miyuki supports half of the Hong Kong music scene. This is actually an exaggeration. There are not that many, just over 60 songs.
The sad thing is that the music industry relied on island music 50 years ago, and it will still rely on them 50 years later. Some Internet hit songs "The Wind Rises", "Spell the Memories for You", "The Promise Under the Cherry Blossom Tree", etc. have also been covered. island country.
This highlights the greatness of Wong Ka Kui, Li Zongsheng, and Jay Chou.
The song "Happy Worship" was quite famous at the time. The rapper Hot Dog said in "Have Hip Hop" that this song was the first rap song he had ever heard.
Likewise, this song was the first rap song that most young people heard in that era.
Needless to say, the power of this song goes without saying. Even in 2023, this song still dominates the Chinese rap music industry.
When he learned that he had obtained this song, Lin Zhixing was so excited that his eyes gleamed.
After coming back to his senses.
Lin Zhixing glanced at the Taicheng rapper Pan Shuai who was chatting next to him, pursed his lips, and murmured in his heart: "Brother Pan, you'd better look forward to my round. If you rap against me..."
"I'm afraid you have to live in my shadow."
