177 Cao Xuan is not an entertainment idol, but a life idol(1/2)

The fans shouted for several minutes, shouting at the top of their lungs and doing their best.

Even though Cao Xuan wanted to speak several times during this period, the enthusiastic fans blocked him.

The degree of craziness shocked many people who were not familiar with Cao Xuan, or who simply came to watch the concert.

But in fact, if you have an in-depth study of Cao Xuan, you will not be surprised when you see this scene.

Cao Xuan's current popularity and influence in the mainland can no longer be summed up simply by a popular singer.

It is a real fashion trend or phenomenon.

Since the birth of pop music in the Mainland, there has only been one such tough Hong Kong and Taiwan superstar, who even pushed them to the ground and beat them up.

In less than four years since his debut, Cao Xuan's experience has become a legend in the music industry.

Single fame!

The first album reaches the top!

Two specialties become the king!

Three specializations to become gods!

This unprecedented glory is not only Cao Xuan's personal success, but also attracts countless career fans to him.

Compared with those popular young idols, stars who are praised by directors, bosses and producers.

Cao Xuan started from scratch, wrote lyrics and composed his own music, and used his "talent" to carve his way into the music world. This kind of story of breaking through the shackles and making an independent counterattack and succeeding all the way is really inspiring.

Therefore, these fans who have watched Cao Xuan reach the top do not regard Cao Xuan as an entertainment idol, but as a life idol to imitate and learn from.

With such a mentality, many fans' love and admiration for Cao Xuan is difficult for ordinary people to understand.

Today, I caught up with Cao Xuan's first concert in his life. Everyone had the feeling of witnessing a milestone in Cao Xuan's career. Coupled with the enthusiastic atmosphere around him, it was inevitable that the fans would go crazy.

Finally, the fans calmed down, and Cao Xuan pretended to wipe his sweat and joked.

"Everyone is so enthusiastic. Just now I was worried that if you kept shouting, how would we calculate the ticket price later?"

If they were the audience of Deyun Club, they would have already shouted for a refund after hearing this. But now, everyone has not been "poisoned" by the old couple, they just laughed along and listened to Cao Xuan's words.

Cao Xuan looked at the countless fluorescent sticks and light panels in the audience and felt very emotional.

“When I was discussing holding a concert with Warner’s CEO Zhou, he said he wanted to hold a concert that cost RMB 80,000 per show.

I thought he was crazy at the time because no singer in the Mainland had ever held such a large-scale concert.

Later, I realized that I was wrong. All 80,000 tickets were sold out in less than a week, all thanks to everyone's support. This is also a great honor for me. I am sincerely frightened and grateful from the bottom of my heart."

After Cao Xuan finished speaking, he sincerely bowed to the audience, and all the fans were once again in a state of excitement.

"Cao Xuan, come on!"

"Brother, you are the best!"

"We'll support you forever!"

"Music is everywhere, Cao Xuan is irreplaceable!"

"Ahhh!"

“Awesome!!!”

"..."

Listening to Cao Xuan's words about the "box office miracle" they had created together and his sincere thanks, all the fans were proud of you, shouted loudly, and responded enthusiastically to Cao Xuan on the stage.

Li Qian sat in her seat, feeling the violent atmosphere and getting goosebumps all over her body. She waved the light stick in her hand wildly and shouted along with the fans.

When Wei Wei calmed down, he saw Hu Jing sitting motionless in his seat. When he looked over, he found that Hu Jing was crying.

"Sister Jing, what's wrong with you?"

"fine."

Hu Jing wiped her tears: "I just think it's not easy for him to get to this point. I'm happy for him."

On the other side of the VIP area, Zeng Li did not cry, and looked towards the stage with eyes full of pride and pride.

As for the other artists at the scene, looking at the busy man on the stage, some were happy, some were envious, some appreciated, some worshiped, and some were moved...

Cao Xuan and the fans didn't chat for too long. People didn't buy tickets to listen to his nonsense. Even if they wanted to, Cao Xuan couldn't do that.

Soon, the concert officially started, the prelude of the first song sounded, and Cao Xuan raised the microphone.

""Angel Wings" is for everyone."

This song is not Cao Xuan's masterpiece, but it is one of Cao Xuan's personal favorite songs.

At the same time, this song also means the protection of love. It is a love song and can also refer to fans, so it was chosen by Cao Xuan as the first song of the concert.

“Where will the fallen leaves go with the wind?

Leave only the sky to be beautiful

The sound and shadow that once danced

like angel wings

Cross my happy past

…”

The soothing and clear singing brought the 80,000 fans present into the ocean of music.

They consciously and slowly waved the glow sticks and light panels in their hands, enjoying the music and singing.

Someone in later generations once said that to evaluate an actor's ability, go to see the plays he performs; to evaluate a singer, go to see whether he dares to hold a concert.

Cao Xuan has been in the singing world for three and a half years. He dare not say that he practices singing every day, but he has to sing at least 200 days a year.

Every time he records an album, Cao Xuan still goes out and sings it over and over again even though he has sound editing equipment, in order to hone his singing skills and at the same time keep the songs deeply in his mind.

Among the more than 40 songs he has released, Cao Xuan has sung the most difficult ones more than a hundred times, and even more difficult songs or commonly used title songs have been sung more than a thousand times.

Cao Xuan knows all the lyrics, melody changes, and singing techniques of each song by heart.

And there are countless performances of various sizes such as commercial performances, book signings, fan clubs, and various parties to accumulate stage performance experience.

If Cao Xuan were asked to evaluate it personally, he would rate his singing skills as B+~A.

She is inferior to those top S-level singers (Zhang Tianwang, Liu Huan, Mao Amin) and A-level absolutely powerful singers (Sun Nan, Zhao Chuan, Naying), but overall she can be considered capable.

Many professional music critics also commented on Cao Xuan in the same way, saying that his singing skills are barely top-notch, but his creative ability is top-notch, even unique.

But everyone also admits that singing skills can be honed, and Cao Xuan has made rapid progress.

The songs in the album were recorded repeatedly, and you may not be able to feel them yet, but listening to them live, you can clearly feel that Cao Xuan's singing skills are constantly improving.

When he first debuted in the early days, he was a top amateur, semi-professional, and his strength was around D~C level (Xu Liang). He only had certain basic skills in singing, and the rest relied entirely on emotion.

After the first album, he began to step into the ranks of professional singers. He actually sang "Gong Xi Fa Cai" in the Spring Festival Gala, and his performance was quite good, and he has stabilized at around C~C+ (Mao Buyi).

After his second and third majors, a lot of performance training and album recording, Cao Xuan began to enter a period of rapid growth.

Now the singing skills have been stably maintained above B level (Guangliang). If it is my own song, relying on the proficiency and skill bonus, the level is almost around B+ (Hu Yanbin). If the condition is good, it is expected to be A level.

This is a reference made by Cao Xuan himself. It may not be accurate, but it is roughly within the range.

He knows his own family affairs, and Cao Xuan's talent and voice function conditions are difficult to support him to achieve S-level singing skills.

Cao Xuan is not greedy either. There are only a few S-level singers in the entire Chinese music world. Being able to reach A-level singers is enough for him to dominate the music world.

He had never held concerts before because Cao Xuan was not sure about his own ability. It was not until he improved his hard skills that he could perform live in front of so many fans.

And his sound choice was not wrong.

The song "Angel Wings" ended, and the soulful and warm voice and singing welcomed the applause and cheers of the 80,000 fans at the scene. Music critics and those who knew the music also nodded in approval.

If Cao Xuan had rashly held a concert back then, even if the fans brought their own filters, they would not be able to fool these people. Maybe it would be the new generation of King Waterloo...

Taking advantage of the good atmosphere, Cao Xuan sang "Infatuated Heart Absolutely" and "Love Is Unavoidable" together, and then led 80,000 people to sing "Stubborn" together.

Cao Xuan sang the first half, and all the fans in the audience followed the second half. In the end, both parties sang the climax chorus together.

"Me and my last stubbornness

Hold your hands tightly and never let go

Is the next stop going to be paradise?

Even if you are disappointed, don’t despair

Me and my proud stubbornness

I sing loudly in the wind

Crazy for myself this time

Just this time, me and my stubbornness

………”

A total of 80,000 people sang in unison, the sound shook the whole country, and the singing could be faintly heard even across the long road. Many people who knew about the concert cast envious glances.
