Chapter 186 It’s not us who are powerful, it’s him
After recording ends.
Outside the costume room of the program team.
"Xiao Lin, come here, I have something to tell you."
"okay."
Lin Zhixing and Dong Chen had just changed their clothes and came out. They met Huang Xiao who was waiting for them at the door. The two of them came to the stairwell of the corridor.
"You've been performing well recently!"
Huang Xiao patted his arm and praised with a smile.
Lin Zhixing smiled and said modestly: "It's just so-so. There has been little progress in the last two periods."
Huang Xiao admired it and said: "Your song "He is a Pirate" in the last issue of "The Summer of the Orchestra" was so amazing, I loved it so much!"
Lin Zhixing raised the corner of his mouth and said, "I usually like to watch some pirate movies. It just happens to be in line with the public's taste."
"that's humble."
Huang Xiao rubbed his chin and said: "I think your orchestra's real rivals in that show were the Vienna Orchestra and the Tang Music Ensemble, especially the Tang Music Ensemble. The composer named Heyi is also very powerful and a formidable opponent. !”
“Really excellent.”
Lin Zhixing pinched his thigh and suppressed a smile.
Huang Xiao said: "I'm here to remind you that the World Cup theme song collection ends in two days. When you said you would give it a try, have you submitted any songs?"
Lin Zhixing nodded, "I handed it in. I handed it in a week ago."
"Oh, that's how it is."
Huang Xiao pondered for a moment, smiled and said, "I really want to hear it."
"Sure, no problem."
Lin Zhixing readily agreed, found the earphones and handed them to Huang Xiao, and played the recording on his phone, "The song is called "The Flag is Open to Victory"!"
"good."
Huang Xiao came to Lin Zhixing this time because he was actually asked by an arrogant musician friend. If the theme song submitted by Lin Zhixing was very good, the musician would give up the song submission.
Lin Zhixing's current lyrics include "May People Live Longer" and his songs include "He is a Pirate". Although many musicians are unwilling to admit the excellence of this young man, they already regard him as a powerful opponent in their hearts.
Huang Xiao put on his headphones, leaned on the armrest in the corridor, and listened carefully.
It was just a prelude. He raised his eyes and glanced at Lin Zhixing three times, with shock written all over his face.
Listen to the whole song...
Huang Xiao patted Lin Zhixing on the shoulder, "I will definitely go to the World Cup opening ceremony to watch your performance!"
After saying that, he turned around and went down the stairs.
In the process of going downstairs, Huang Xiao tried hard to recall the theme songs of previous World Cups, but for a while he couldn't remember them at all. His mind was filled with the melody of "Victory" just now.
Arrive at the underground parking lot.
After getting in the car, Huang Xiao took out his mobile phone and dialed the number, "Shaoan, give up on submitting your song, you can't win."
The person on the other end of the phone was very surprised to hear his calm and desperate tone.
"Teacher Huang, you composed the music, so you can't win?"
"Yes, neither can I!"
…
…
Inside the hotel room.
"It was too dangerous, too dangerous, and I was almost eliminated!"
Dong Chen lay on the bed with a tired face, still a little frightened at this moment, "I really didn't expect Sun Haoan to be eliminated. I thought the eliminated people would be us and Ku Miao."
"Keep up the good work."
Listening to Dong Chen's thoughts, Lin Zhixing was packing his luggage for tomorrow. He felt a bit like an eggplant beaten by frost at the moment. He was really depressed after losing by a narrow margin twice in a row.
Before going to bed, Lin Zhixing habitually checked the hot search list on Weibo.
Tonight's "Legend" ranked fourth on the hot search list, and the popularity is not that high.
But there was one comment that Lin Zhixing liked very much.
[Lin Zhixing sings legends on earth, Song Ge sings legends in heaven! 】
"Brother Lin, look at the number one hot list on Weibo."
Dong Chen, who was sitting cross-legged by the bed, raised his phone and said suddenly.
"good."
Lin Zhixing quit the topic and scrolled up the screen. He was quite surprised to see the hot search at the top of the list.
[Ran Iijima's "Red Lotus" exploded on the scene, whose DNA awakened it? 】
I clicked on the comment section and it was also well received.
"Open your mouth and kneel down, this surprise attack can be described as a dimensionality reduction blow!"
"It's so explosive, my blood boils when I hear it!"
"As long as she is on stage, she will be the best live every time!"
As soon as this female singer from the island country appeared on the scene, she shot to the top of the hot search list. It seems that her popularity here is not generally high.
Dong Chen frowned slightly and said, "Brother Lin, Ran Iijima will definitely be a strong opponent in the future. Her singing style makes it too easy to get high scores."
"right."
Lin Zhixing nodded, "Her singing skills are also very good. With the exposure in this issue, her popularity will be even higher in the next issue. She will definitely be a difficult opponent."
"Why!"
Dong Chen sighed, "Starting from the next period, online voting will also account for 10% of the results. This rule is becoming more and more unfavorable to Ji Yu and me."
Lin Zhixing also frowned when he heard this.
Starting from the "I am the King of Singer" competition, the songs I sang can be said to have lost the elderly market. I don't know what the popularity of the Internet will be in the next period.
On the contrary, this rule is very beneficial to Guo Jiahe. If nothing else happens, he is expected to win the popularity title every time.
the other side.
After the game, Ran Iijima opened Weibo while the iron was hot and posted a video greeting fans, hoping to gain support from fans starting from the next issue.
Due to the popularity of the hot search list, her Weibo fans have soared, and the already established fan support club has also taken action to win over fans from all over the country to support her.
…
…
The next afternoon.
Yida Records, in the assistant's office.
"Sister Hui, look for me."
"sit."
Zhang Sihui looked at Lin Zhixing with a smile on her face, gave a thumbs up and said: "Xiao Lin, I have two pieces of good news to share with you. Three of the songs played by your Soul Sound Orchestra have been chosen by others. "
Lin Zhixing raised his eyes and thought for a while, then asked: "Is it "One Step Away", "Mission Impossible", "He is a Pirate"?"
"Yes."
Zhang Sihui nodded and explained: "The director of a love movie wanted to buy "One Step Away" to use as a prom episode in the movie, while "Mission Impossible" was spotted by the director of a spy film."
"Can."
Lin Zhixing pursed his lips and smiled, and said: "Sister Hui, you know more about copyright prices than I do, just help me make the decision."
"good."
Zhang Sihui emphasized: "The main reason I called you here is to talk to you about the price of "He is a Pirate"."
"This song has gained a lot of attention on the Internet, and many musicians have praised this song. The Disney Company has contacted us and wants to purchase the commercial copyright of this song and use it in Disneyland facilities. Are you interested? For sale?”
Very discerning, it is really good to use it on projects similar to the pirate ship.
However, Lin Zhixing really didn't know much about the price of this kind of commercial copyright.
"Intentional."
After Lin Zhixing thought for a moment, he said: "Sister Hui, please inquire more about the copyright price in this area and sell it at a high price. If they think it is expensive and don't buy it, it doesn't matter. Let time settle, and maybe the price will be higher."
"no problem."
…
…
On the recording day of "Summer of the Orchestra", three hours before the start of the show.
Yida Records musical instrument room.
"Dear me, the production is finally completed, here you go!"
"Thank you, Brother Chen!"
Zheng Lili took the U disk sent by Dong Chen and thanked her repeatedly. There were edited videos in the U disk. They were the Tang Music Troupe going to the funeral, getting married, and the children playing "A Hundred Birds to the Phoenix" when they were one month old.
In order to better present the stage effect, the Tang Music Troupe has been doing a lot of weddings and weddings recently, and they help out by performing for free in exchange for a meal.
The members of the Tang Music Troupe increasingly felt that this piece of music was awesome.
——It can blow a person from full moon to seven in his head.
The Sound of the Soul Band is relatively idle these days.
Because the main tasks fell on Xiao Yu, the pianist in the orchestra, she was so surprised when she heard the recording of Lin Zhixing playing "Flight of the Bumblebee" for the first time that she thought she was not qualified.
But in fact it is not particularly difficult, and I am already very proficient in it today.
Both bands now have more than 100,000 Weibo fans. The music conservatories where they graduated have regarded them as role models, attracting the admiration of many junior students.
Some people even asked them to perform commercially, but they were all rejected by Lin Zhixing. Now was the time for them to increase their net worth, and they were not in a hurry to perform commercially.
…
Half an hour before the start of the game, in the lounge.
A girl who claimed to be an alumnus came backstage and approached Xiao Yu from the Sound of Soul Band to ask for an autograph.
"Senior sister, I'm going to graduate in one year. Do you have any advice for me?"
Xiao Yu looked at the immature school girl in front of her who had never been beaten up by society. She had words of encouragement on her lips, but she couldn't say them out. Finally, she sighed softly and said: "Let's take the public examination. Learning music is a dead end. If you can't join a professional ensemble, in the end, The only way back is to teach students in musical instrument stores.”
"Senior sister, why do you say that?" the girl raised her eyebrows and asked in confusion.
"I'm not trying to hit you. Let me tell you the truth."
Xiao Yu pulled her aside, lowered her voice and confessed: "I worked hard and spent money to be on the show "Super Brain". I thought that with such a resume, a professional ensemble would accept me, but I still refused." .”
"You think I'm very beautiful now, not because I'm awesome!"
The girl nodded in understanding, "Senior sister, don't be modest, you and your band are very good."
Xiao Yu smiled and shook his head, "We are all average, but the most powerful one is Lin Zhixing!"
…
At seven o'clock in the evening.
After a gesture from the on-site director, the program "Summer of the Orchestra" officially started.
After three episodes of the show, this show has accumulated a lot of fans of different age groups. They are all in front of the TV at this moment. There are even professional musicians watching, waiting to get a chance to comment on the song.
Under a beautiful background music, a beautiful female host wearing a cheongsam stepped onto the stage and made an opening statement with a smile, "Good evening, audience friends, and welcome to the program "Summer of the Orchestra". I am tonight's host Miao. Miao..."
After some opening remarks, the four judges waved their hands and appeared.
Lin Zhixing is still watching the show tonight, wanting to see with his own eyes who can win between "Flight of the Bumblebee" and "A Hundred Birds at the Phoenix". At this moment, he is clapping along with the audience.
"The first band is invited to appear below. Which band is it? Please look at the big screen!"
Following the direction of the host's finger, the names of the bands on the stage screen began to scroll. After the scrolling stopped, the names of the first band to appear were displayed in front of the audience.
【Flight of the Bumblebee】
[Composer: Lin Zhixing]
[Performance: Soul Sound Orchestra]
"Let's give them a little shock at the beginning!"
Lin Zhixing sat up straight, looking forward to the next performance.
Also looking forward to it were the four judges and the audience in front of the TV. Before the Sound of Soul Band came on stage, applause rang out.
"Three, two, one, come on!"
The members of the Soul Sound Orchestra in suits and formal wear came to the center of the stage tonight under the leadership of Xiao Yu.
As the band members took their seats, the noisy scene gradually became quiet.
As the protagonist of tonight's song.
Xiao Yu raised his hands and slowly placed them on the piano. His back was slightly arched, and his whole body was lying on the piano like a musical note.
From her feet to her hands and then to her body, she evened her body into a line, letting the power of her body flow through and brewing her emotions.
Although the keys have not been played yet, this gesture alone gave the audience full expectations.
"call."
Xiao Yu took a deep breath. After receiving the signal from the orchestra conductor, the next second, her slender fingers suddenly dropped.
"Da da da"
"Da da da da da"
The fingers fell down like a rainstorm of pear blossoms, wild and rapid tones suddenly sounded, and the orchestra members behind him also started to play together.
"Damn, it's so fast!"
"It's amazing. I close my eyes and listen to this tone. It feels like a swarm of bees are staring at my butt and chasing after me..."
For laymen, the easiest thing to perceive is the so-called external skills of "playing fast, singing high, and painting well". Appreciating these techniques requires no effort at all. You can understand them immediately after seeing or hearing them. Such works are also the easiest to earn praise for.
"Flight of the Bumblebee" is indeed a very effective piece of music. Some songs sound easy but are actually very difficult. "Flight of the Bumblebee" is a piece that is both difficult to listen to and very suitable for showing off your skills.
The audience was shocked by the ultra-fast playing speed, and everyone opened their mouths in surprise.
Jury seat.
The eyes of the four judges widened and they were all stunned. This piece of music was not just fast.
Each part actually has a lot of breathing and crescendos. The most important thing when playing a piece is to have a picture in your mind and a story to the piece, rather than just playing fast.
The Sound of Soul Orchestra performed the layered texture of this piece perfectly, especially Xiao Yu, whose hand speed was so fast that it was difficult for the human eye to capture it, let alone a camera.
But soon, musical instrument judge Wang Yuehua and Xie Chunhong saw the clues of playing so fast.
In addition to the speed of hand running, speed is also related to span.
Most of the running of the flight of the wild bee is chromatic, and it can be said that the span is almost 0. If you imagine a person running, the flight of the wild bee means taking one step left, one step right, one step left, one step right, and the frequency is very fast. But the distance actually spanned is not that big.
This is one of the reasons why the song is not that difficult.
"Good guy, how did you get this brain?"
All the bands backstage were shocked by this piece of music, and they didn't expect it to be a hit at the beginning.
