Chapter 383: The Attention of Music Critics (3/3 Monthly Pass)
"It's so late at night that I can't sleep peacefully..."
On the evening of August 12, after the broadcast of "Good Voice in Chinese", people like Shun Liangwei opened the Yueyin software, clicked on the audio of the pure version of "Flowers in the Water" (Cantonese) that had been uploaded, put on the headphones, and closed their eyes with great enjoyment.
There may be quite a few viewers who open their eyes to appreciate it!
However, Shum Liangwei is no ordinary audience member. He is a music critic with a background as a musician.
Different from the music critics that everyone thinks of in the past as being more venomous and sharp in their evaluations, Shun Liangwei mainly reviews mainstream singers and popular songs.
Of course, since they are all about hot topics, his music reviews are of course mainly about praise, supplemented by a small amount of pointing out shortcomings.
It's not that he can't be a vicious tongue, but the situation forces him to do so. The audience doesn't like to see reviews of music and singers they don't like, and at the same time they can't bear to see their favorite singers being scolded. Therefore, in order to gain traffic, he must cater to the audience.
Like, say something they like to hear.
This was not the case for Shun Liangwei at the beginning. He also had a musical dream before. But when he was a musician, his music made little progress, and he was even precarious, and he could hardly survive.
Later, with the rise of Internet videos, Cen Liangwei began to intentionally try to produce videos such as sharing creative experiences and recording the birth process of an original song.
There are actually many viewers who like to watch this relatively hard-core video!
Although his original work is not excellent, excellent musicians will not make videos like his. Netizens will only think that he talks clearly and they seem to understand, so his videos gradually become more popular.
Tens of thousands of regular viewers.
However, Shun Liangwei switched from original creation to music review because of an attempt two years later. He just reviewed a new album of a relatively popular singer, and the number of views increased dramatically, even several times that of other videos he produced.
Ten times the views!
Since he can make a lot of money just by reviewing other people's music, why does he still have to work so hard to create something original?
Shun Liangwei then slowly groped and groped, and now embarked on the road of music criticism that uses clever copywriting to slam the rainbow farts of some mainstream singers.
Of course, Yang Qian is not a mainstream singer.
Judging from the standard that Shun Liangwei is only a first-line singer or a music critic for a former superstar, Yang Qian will not be able to catch his eye at all.
But Yang Qian has really been in the limelight recently. CCTV has endorsed him. Many hot searches are about him. His popularity is almost as high as that of first-tier singers. Well, the main thing is that now, first-tier singers are not very popular...
In addition, Shun Liangwei has actually paid attention to Yang Qian, a young musician with "high output and high quality", and has always liked his songs.
Therefore, taking advantage of this popularity, Cen Liangwei thought he could make a video of Yang Qian and talk about this "strongest musician of the new generation" - this is the title that Cen Liangwei had already thought of.
"Like flowers reflected in water,
I can only look at it and not take it off..."
Shun Liangwei already thought the song "Flowers in the Water" was beautiful when he heard it during the live TV broadcast. Now that he plugs in his headphones and listens to the pure version, he can't help but shake his head and sigh.
Is this a song that a human being can write?
The fairy spirit is fluttering and full of spiritual energy!
The key is that Yang Qian also sings well. He made full use of the resonance characteristics of his head cavity to sing this song in a way that has both the resentment and illusion of the shadows of flowers in the water, and the delicate and graceful poetry!
"Forty-three to eight, this score is not biased by the judges. If I were to be the fifty-one judge, I might just give it a score of fifty-one to zero."
"Because there is really no comparison. In terms of the quality of original songs and singing skills, Yang Qian has shown a level of strength that is not on the same level as Qiao Donghai!"
While listening, Cen Liangwei recorded his opinions on paper.
These opinions are still unpolished. Cen Liangwei will later combine these inspirations that he recorded while watching TV and listening to music into a complete copy, and then dub them overnight to make a video.
Although Yang Qian is still just a young singer, Cen Liangwei also has a bold premonition in his heart.
Judging from Yang Qian's creative ability, he is very likely to become the most representative of this era, and may even be the only true king of the Chinese music scene!
I am making a prediction in advance now. If Yang Qian really achieves this achievement in the future, will his fans come back and praise him as the prophecy emperor?
Putting aside the prophecy or not, Cen Liangwei feels that the song "Flowers in the Water" is already worthy of him making a video for Yang Qian.
And according to Yang Qian's pattern of endlessly good songs, maybe he can still be featured in many videos...
…
The next night, someone in Yang Qian's first-generation fan group forwarded Cen Liangwei's video to the group.
Jiang Shenrui also saw it.
Usually he doesn't bother to read music reviews. He still has to listen to the songs himself whether he thinks they are good or not. Others cannot represent his own taste.
But when he saw that this video was a review of "Flowers in the Water", Jiang Shenrui couldn't help but click on it.
He likes "Flowers in the Water" very much, and is also curious about how this music critic who said that Teacher Yang is "the strongest musician of the new generation" praised this song!
"Hello everyone, I am Cen Liangwei, the least popular musician in China. Many friends have been waiting for a long time, right? In fact, I haven't updated many videos recently because I went to watch "The Voice of China"! Of course, when it comes to "The Voice of China"
", many friends should know who the new generation of musicians I am going to talk about today are!"
It begins with a self-introduction and a short opening quotation.
Jiang Shenrui took the time to check the number of views on the video. It was pretty good. In less than a day, it had 43,000 views, and hundreds of people were watching it at the same time.
"Yes, he is Yang Qian. Yang Qian is a very special singer. He can write as well as write songs. He once worked as a reporter but stepped onto the stage. He produces many masterpieces but is low-key!"
Jiang Shenrui knew what Cen Liangwei said, and logically he would disdain it, but Cen Liangwei's analogy was so well-used that Jiang Shenrui was so excited when he heard it, and found it very interesting!
"Although it has gone viral countless times, Yang Qian has not opened a short video account so far. He has focused all his energy on creation and singing. Why do I say this? Compare Yang Qian's performance at his graduation ceremony a year ago
Video of singing "Goodbye"..."
Video music reviews are so convenient. Cen Liangwei directly edited Yang Qian's previous videos and compared a short clip with the clip of Yang Qian singing "Flowers in the Water". This is more intuitive and more intuitive than the extravagant description in his text.
More convincing!
"Obviously, Yang Qian's singing skills have improved a lot. He has gone from not being able to use falsetto at all to now using techniques such as head cavity resonance and mixing so skillfully that you can hardly notice the level he is using...
"
Jiang Shenrui watched the video and felt proud in his heart.
Yes, Teacher Yang works hard like this!
Jiang Shenrui can be considered a fan who has witnessed Yang Qian’s growth.
Although when he met Yang Qian last year, Yang Qian's singing skills were already at the level of ordinary singers.
But compared with the current intoxicating feeling of casually singing live, Jiang Shenrui feels that Teacher Yang has made very obvious progress!
This is the difference between Teacher Yang and those Internet celebrity singers!
