204 He Sings the Pride of a Soldier, But He Also Becomes the Pride of Others (3/3
"All members of the third platoon and second squad of the Steel Gun Company are here, start... let's go!"
As soon as the host finished speaking and the audience applauded enthusiastically, he heard Monitor Wu's command coming from the speakers.
The shouting was so forceful that it even broke my voice with excitement!
There was no way, no matter how selfless and unsmiling Wu Shudong was, he was just an ordinary person. On such a big occasion like today, he couldn't help but feel a little excited when he thought that all the officers and soldiers in the military region would be watching.
But their performance is flawless!
The soldiers from the third row and the second squad, who rarely practiced formation, lined up in a neat formation, marched neatly, and walked onto the stage. Then under Wu Shudong's order, they turned and faced the audience.
"Damn it, the labor and management are all a little weak!"
Niu Lingjun, who barked the loudest below, murmured in a low voice.
"Stand still! Don't talk."
Peng Jihong stood next to Niu Lingjun in order of height. In order to prevent others from seeing them whispering, he did not move his lips and only moved his throat to remind Niu Lingjun.
But don't worry, only Wu Shudong is holding the microphone now.
The staff in charge of microphones has just brought in the microphones and microphone stands they will use for harmony, and they are still arranging and debugging them.
Moreover, they stood there with heads held high and eyes wide open. The eleven people showed the steel-like will and steel-like fighting spirit of the entire steel gun company, and also received applause from the leaders and soldiers in the audience.
No one paid attention to their conversation.
However, the microphone was set up in front of them, and everyone, including Niu Lingjun, was in high spirits.
When the snare drum in the prelude sounded intensively, they had sung it many times before and had practiced it countless times in the past two days. They immediately opened their mouths and sang in unison like a conditioned reflex.
"We who serve as soldiers,
We are soldiers!"
No matter how good they are at rapping, it's not quite right. Their pitches are messy and their volume is not at the same level. For example, Peng Jihong's voice is hoarse and is suddenly drowned out by other people's voices.
But they sang very neatly, and the hard practice over the past two days has paid off. Everyone's voices came out and closed together, and no one was trying to take pictures.
Moreover, everyone devoted all their efforts to singing. This deafening shout, even if there is no rhythmic beauty, still reflects a strong momentum, which makes people's blood boil and makes them want to jump out of their chairs.
Stand up and fight together to kill the enemy!
"Those who serve as soldiers,
Soldiers..."
After they finished singing, Yang Qian raised the microphone, and his high-pitched singing voice with a strong sense of rhythm also sounded along with the melody:
"We who serve as soldiers,
What's the difference?
Just because we are all wearing
Simple military uniform..."
Yang Qian did not wear a military uniform today because he knew that he was not a regular soldier and could not tarnish the profession of a soldier just to put money on his face.
But in his heart, Yang Qian regarded himself as a soldier and a comrade-in-arms of these brothers. He was proud that he had worn a military uniform.
This pride was sung by him in his singing voice!
"We who serve as soldiers,
What's the difference?
Since leaving my hometown,
It’s hard to see my parents..."
They also sing about the emotions of parting with parents, and some songs can make people cry, but Yang Qian's song "We Soldiers" is different. It sings about the heroic ambitions of soldiers!
Even though they have left their parents, the soldiers serve a greater goal, to protect their families and the country, and to make their parents live a better life at home!
This kind of sacrifice is voluntary and does not require tears!
Of course, this does not mean that other songs are not good. Different situations require different emotional expressions.
When resolving the emotions in your heart and expressing your longing for your hometown, it is also necessary to be appropriately moved to tears.
But "We Soldiers" is meant to sing out the pride in the hearts of the soldiers!
They have family and country in their hearts and carry heavy responsibilities on their shoulders. They can be tenderhearted for their families and lovers, and they can shed blood for the country and the people without shedding tears!
Yang Qian sang this greatness with his impassioned singing voice.
Leaving aside the reactions of leaders and other people, the feelings of ordinary soldiers at this time are the most direct.
I saw the soldiers sitting under the stage, their simple, dark faces couldn't help but be filled with pride.
Such high-pitched and rhythmic singing lifted everyone's mood again, and they were even more excited and excited than before!
You must know that the previous song "The Great Wall Will Never Fall Down" also sings about everyone's heroic ambition to devote themselves to the country, but it is Cantonese after all, and the emotional conversion is separated by a layer of dialect barriers.
Now this song "We Are Soldiers" is different. It is sung directly in Mandarin that everyone can understand, with clear words and pronunciation.
Moreover, this song sounds very good from the first two paragraphs. Everyone even found it not difficult to sing, and some soldiers couldn't help but want to hum along.
Even when they sang about their parents and "nothing is different" about leaving their hometown, they just felt that this was the sacrifice they had to make as soldiers and did not fall into any coy emotions.
"Say it's different,
In fact, the same is true,
They are all the years of youth,
They are all hot-blooded men!
Say it's different,
In fact, the same is true,
The same footprints are left,
The mountains are high and the rivers are long!”
An indescribable emotion stirred in my chest.
Everyone is the same!
They are all the beautiful years of youth and passion, and they are all good sons and daughters of the motherland!
As Yang Qian said before, soldiers dedicate their best time to the motherland and do not need praise from others, because the mountains and rivers of the motherland have witnessed their glory!
…
In the family room, Dai Yuni, Yang Shihan, Ouyang Xiaoqing and others saw Yang Qian's different behavior for the first time.
It was the first time for Yang Shihan and Ouyang Xiaoqing to listen to the song "We Are Soldiers". They were stunned and could not imagine that Yang Qian could write such a military song.
But even for Dai Yuni, who has seen Yang Qian sing this song many times at home and in the recording studio, it was hard for her to imagine Yang Qian singing "We Are Soldiers" on stage like this before.
status.
At this time, Yang Qian, even if he was not wearing a military uniform, seemed to them to be completely different from the way he used to sing pop songs and lyrical songs. It was as if he was no longer a singer, but an equally brave and mighty soldier with no regard for his own safety.
!
"Did my brother really join the army before? It feels really different!"
Although she already knew that her brother had gone to military training, Yang Shihan couldn't help but ask Dai Yuni about it.
"Well, he went to military training for two weeks, and his temperament changed a lot."
While Dai Yuni was speaking, her eyes remained on the stage, and Yang Qian's heroic appearance was reflected in her sparkling eyes.
I can’t tell whether it’s because of the awe-inspiring righteousness in him, the sonorous momentum when he sings, or the fact that he is as high-spirited as a young soldier...
Anyway, Dai Yuni thinks Da Mu is the most handsome at this time!
It made her feel like a deer and her eyes were filled with stars!
It reminded her of that tense and worrying time, and she started to miss her again for no reason!
"I think brother Yang Qian's singing is getting better and better, and his stage appeal is super strong!"
Ouyang Xiaoqing's envious sigh also reached Dai Yuni's ears, and she couldn't help but feel proud of Yang Qian.
Yes, her big wood is that good!
…
"We who serve as soldiers,
It’s just different,
My head rests on the bright moon at the border,
Covered in rain, snow, wind and frost..."
Yang Qian on the stage sang generously, and Zhu Dehui in the audience was mesmerized. He shook his head and couldn't help but patted Ouyang Cheng on the shoulder.
"Ouyang, you have taught a good apprentice!"
If Zhu Dehui praised Yang Qian before because he just thought he was good, now Zhu Dehui really spoke highly of Yang Qian from the bottom of his heart - more praises, in his "ah" full of emotion
.
Even with deep envy!
This apprentice is not just outstanding, he also brings honor to the master and earns face for the master in front of so many officers, soldiers and leaders in the army!
If a disciple is like this, what more can a master ask for?
"This is his own creation and the result of his own efforts. I can't take such a big credit, haha!"
Although Ouyang Cheng was modest, he was still very proud of himself. The laughter behind him showed how proud he was of his apprentice.
"Thanks to your contribution, Ouyang is an experiential person. In order to write good articles, he does not hesitate to take root at the grassroots level and focus on rural reports that are closest to life and closest to reality!
Now that your apprentice has learned your tricks, in order to write good songs, he actually goes to a place like the Gun Company (a high-intensity special forces unit) to train. I think his future achievements will be immeasurable!"
Zhu Dehui is right.
Yang Qian is willing to go to military training in order to sing well. Although this has a certain relationship with his own personality, it has to be said that he was also influenced by Ouyang Chengjing's conscientiousness in working at the grassroots level.
Yang Qian has called many people teachers since he graduated, but in terms of the ones he considers to be real teachers who have a greater influence on his future, they may only be Ouyang Cheng and Li Guangmin.
Even in music, Ouyang Cheng is not as capable as Li Guangmin in giving Yang Qian very professional guidance, but he has given Yang Qian a lot of subtle inspiration in his approach to work, life and dealing with people!
"Teacher, that's why I preach, learn karma and resolve doubts!"
Preaching must precede teaching and solving doubts!
It's a bit far to go. Yang Qian's song "We Are Soldiers" brought a visual and emotional shock to the ordinary audience who were watching. Before it was too far to subside, in the corner where the director team stayed
Here, Jinke gradually came back to his senses.
He has not forgotten the purpose of coming here today!
He no longer needs to evaluate Yang Qian's creative ability. The songs he sang before, as well as the song "The Great Wall Will Never Fall" at the beginning of today, are enough for him to see Yang Qian's outstanding creative ability.
Even outstanding is not enough to describe Yang Qian's level. Jin Ke felt that Yang Qian's creative ability was beyond his understanding.
Those musicians in the past wrote better than Yang Qian, but did not have as diverse styles as Yang Qian.
The style of writing is diverse, but it doesn’t change as frequently and quickly as Yang Qian’s!
Even if there are prolific musicians, there are very few who are as prolific and high-quality as Yang Qian!
Therefore, Jin Ke could not find a template among previous musicians that could be compared with Yang Qian.
The only worry now is how long Yang Qian's strong creative ability and creative enthusiasm can be sustained. However, it seems that this worry has nothing to do with Jin Ke.
He just wanted Yang Qian to be a student in "The Voice of Chinese", and he just wanted to use Yang Qian to attract Chai Jiang to come out again - because Chai Jiang didn't make it clear that day, but he already hinted that he could bring out a champion like Yang Qian.
Students’ desire.
Jin Ke is doing it for his own benefit, so what he needs to pay attention to now is not whether Yang Qian will have such a powerful creative ability in the future, but whether Yang Qian has a good voice worthy of paying enough price and resources?
