Chapter 974 The Miraculous Yang Qian (two chapters in one)
Of course, when Yang Qian came to the United States this time, he did not attend the meeting alone. He was followed by five people. But except for Yin Juan, who temporarily served as Yang Qian's agent, and Guan Chunyang, the driver and bodyguard who always drove Yang Qian, the others
Even Chang Xueying, who had been in the company before, didn’t know her!
However, it has become obvious. Even Jimmy Cagan can now see that the three short-haired men, including Guan Chunyang, are bodyguards.
This is the fact! The slightly older man who called Guan Chunyang was called Xue Yongfeng. He and another bodyguard Ma Shuhua were both old bodyguards who had been with Dai Zhenhong for many years.
Because Guan Chunyang was only recruited the year before last. Although he has good driving skills and good fighting skills, Guan Chunyang is not as good as the two old bodyguards Xue Yongfeng and Ma Shuhua in terms of experience in handling abnormal security situations abroad -
They often followed Dai Zhenhong abroad.
It was precisely for this reason that Dai Zhenhong asked them to follow Yang Qian on this trip to protect Yang Qian's safety. In addition to the two of them, there was also Dai Zhenhong's assistant Zhu Mingyang!
Zhu Mingyang, about thirty-five years old, has an ordinary appearance but a calm personality. Moreover, Zhu Mingyang previously studied in high school, university, and graduate school in the United States, and also interned and worked in some large financial institutions abroad. It can be said that he is familiar with all aspects of the United States.
We are quite familiar with him. Some of Dai Zhenhong’s previous trips abroad to participate in activities were also arranged by Zhu Mingyang.
It was Dai Zhenhong's good opinion of him that made Yang Qian also bring Zhu Mingyang with him. Obviously, when going abroad, let alone Yin Juan, even if Wu Lan followed him and was blinded, he still had to have such a person familiar with the United States.
Follow and provide Yang Qian with appropriate suggestions at any time!
Of course, whether it is Zhu Mingyang or Yin Juan, these two people who look like Yang Qian's assistants will not surprise Jimmy Cagan. Even ordinary celebrities have assistants with them.
But what the three bodyguards Xue Yongfeng, Ma Shuhua, and Guan Chunyang discovered really shocked Jimmy Kegan. He had bodyguards with him, and they were three well-trained bodyguards. Yang Qian, a star, is quite extraordinary!
Jimmy Cagan didn't feel afraid of Yang Qian because of this, he just found it interesting. No wonder he had discussed with Rich Russ before and said that he could spend a lot of money to invite (poach) Yang Qian to the United States and join their agency under the website
company, but Rich Russ persuaded him to give up the idea, saying that Yang Qian was the boss himself and was not short of money.
Now it seems that whether the background is very deep is another matter, but it is definitely not short of money!
...
Ignoring the issue of Yang Qian's bodyguards, everyone left the airport, got into several cars that Rich Russ had arranged a long time ago, and divided into two groups.
Yang Qian and Ouyang Xiaoqing first went to the place they had rented to rehearse, without resting at all, and directly started preparations for the finals program - the finals were scheduled to be in Las Vegas, but they didn't need to go to the casino yet.
, it is obviously more convenient for the rapper Yali to rehearse here.
Yin Juan, Zhu Mingyang and Guan Chunyang took their luggage and went to the hotel where they were staying to go through the formalities and settle down.
Jimmy Cagan was delayed outside for a while at first, dealing with some personal matters. When he stepped into the practice room, Ouyang Xiaoqing was already singing the songs of her finals solo program!
It was the song that he particularly liked and highly praised as having the ability to win the championship!
However, after Ouyang Xiaoqing finished singing, Yang Qian seemed not satisfied.
"The state of your voice is not right. You haven't gained enough strength. You can't sing this song! I told you where you need to use accents. Why haven't you practiced it well today?"
When Yang Qian was giving instructions to Ouyang Xiaoqing, he didn't care whether Jimmy Cagan was around or not. He spoke directly in Chinese.
Of course Jimmy Cagan didn't understand, but when he saw Ouyang Xiaoqing with her head down and being trained obediently, he couldn't help but feel the pressure brought by Yang Qian, the "teacher"!
Not singing well?
Aren’t you singing pretty well? How charming is that high note?
Is he too demanding?
Jimmy Cagan groaned inwardly.
In fact, if the musician judge Tarinal Savoin who admired Ouyang Xiaoqing was here, he would also agree with Yang Qian's judgment, but Jimmy Cagan is just the producer of the program, he just loves music, and he can also be a little bit
Singing a few lines, in terms of professionalism, he is far from the level of Yang Qian and Tarinar Savoyin.
However, what Jimmy Kegan doesn't know is that Ouyang Xiaoqing's "poor performance" now has something to do with him!
"Would it be more advantageous to sing higher in the competition? I can actually raise the key to this song."
Ouyang Xiaoqing discussed with the master in a low voice.
Yes, it’s because when Jimmy Cagan gave Ouyang Xiaoqing some advice before, he asked her to further utilize her high-pitched voice and strive to use her voice to “topple” the ceiling of the finals!
Therefore, Ouyang Xiaoqing, who is a bit obsessed with the authorities, fell in love with the champion's temptation.
Yang Qian saw her problem, but at this moment, he did not tell her the truth. Instead, he turned to ask Chang Xueying, who was holding a camera to shoot the vlog, if she had taken the clip of Ouyang Xiaoqing singing just now.
.
"You sing it again, using the method I told you, okay? Let's put aside what's not a competition, and just treat it as a demo. Sing it in its entirety as I asked."
Yang Qian said after getting a positive answer.
Ouyang Xiaoqing's character is actually a bit stubborn. When she has ideas, she is not so easy to follow other people's arrangements. Just like when she wanted to sing, she often quarreled with her mother because of the issue of choosing a major in the art exam.
.
However, her little hedgehog-like spikes will still shrink in front of Yang Qian!
The master is different from his parents. Ouyang Xiaoqing is in awe of Yang Qian.
So, without saying anything else, Ouyang Xiaoqing nodded and tried to start singing according to Yang Qian's instructions.
This time, even though her singing was still not satisfactory to Yang Qian. Due to neglect of practice, some of the problems pointed out by Yang Qian were not completely corrected, but to the ears of Jimmy Cagan next to her, there was still an almost qualitative change.
!
The charm of treble is still there, but it is not the kind of treble that reaches the sky.
The calmer tone gives Jimmy Cagan a deep sense of thought! It seems to be more in line with the content and meaning of this song!
There is also a sense of stepped explosion. I don’t know why, but Jimmy Cagan is more enjoyable to listen to, even though the treble part does not have that amazing tearing feeling.
"But this singer is a genius. Her high notes are as bright as an eagle, and they can still soar into the sky and resound throughout the entire audience!"
Jimmy Cagan couldn't help but admire in his heart.
Of course, Jimmy Cagan also had a higher opinion of Yang Qian. Even though he didn't know what Yang Qian and Ouyang Xiaoqing said, once Yang Qian came, Ouyang Xiaoqing's singing made a qualitative leap. It can be seen that Yang Qian's singing
Qian's guidance is so amazing.
"Can it be done in just a few sentences?"
Jimmy Cagan was very curious.
However, Yang Qian ignored his curiosity.
"Okay, Xueying will export the video, and let's compare the effects of the two singing methods on the spot, okay?"
Yang Qian doesn't feel sleepy. He got enough sleep on the plane, and because even according to domestic time, it's not time to go to bed yet, even if he's not jet lag, he still looks energetic. And now
When he is fully immersed in his work, Yang Qian is completely focused, focused and professional.
Jimmy Kegan looked at them busy and sighed and admired Yang Qian's dedication a little more.
As an American who has no discrimination against Asians, Jimmy Cagan especially appreciates Yang Qian’s work attitude. He goes straight to the topic as soon as he gets off the plane. With such team support, it’s hard not to trust them. Jimmy Cagan
Kagan even began to look forward to how exciting their show would be!
Going a step further, after Chang Xueying finished setting up the computer, Ouyang Xiaoqing took the headphones handed over by her master and listened to her two auditions in comparison.
"I sang better this time..."
Although she still wanted to stick to her point of view, Ouyang Xiaoqing still honestly told her the results of the comparison.
"So, it doesn't necessarily mean that the high pitch is correct. It doesn't necessarily mean that the high pitch will be more suitable for participating in competitions. Music should always focus on the expression of emotion. Only when this is done well can you consider the singing method.
For innovation, consider other aspects of expressiveness!”
Yang Qian did not reason with her, but directly presented evidence. Now that he presented his own point of view, it would be more convincing.
Ouyang Xiaoqing certainly understands this truth.
"This song of mine is about singing the voice deep in my heart, so do I have to sing it a little lower?"
Ouyang Xiaoqing hesitated and asked.
"The word "depressed" is not appropriate to summarize. Its mood is not depressing, but a kind of joy after seeing life clearly. It is transparent and a kind of strength support from the heart. So you must first show composure and determination.
state, and then show this sense of power from the inside out, which is the high-pitched part."
Yang Qian analyzed it for her.
"But singing like this, won't it still be shocking enough? That's what Jimmy told me before, the penetration in my voice has not been fully expressed."
Ouyang Xiaoqing switched to English because she mentioned Jimmy Cagan in her last sentence.
"What? Yes, I think you sang very well just now and your voice was very contagious. I was very moved when I heard it."
Jimmy Cagan didn't understand what she meant, and thought she wanted to make her own evaluation, so he nodded and smiled.
"Do you also think you sang better the second time?"
Ouyang Xiaoqing asked in surprise.
She thought Jimmy Cagan would support her and let her sing the high notes!
"Yes, the song I sang just now was like an epic slowly unfolding, which shocked me even more! The previous one was also very good, but it lacked this momentum."
Jimmy Kegan's answer made Ouyang Xiaoqing no longer have the courage to fight with her master.
Other "professional" producers have said this, so it seems that the master is right, and he really should sing this way.
"It's not like you can't let yourself go at all. Once you understand this song thoroughly and can express your emotions normally, I will suggest a few positions for you. You can sing freely, even up to g5."
Yang Qian smiled slightly.
This is indeed the case. Yang Qian has seen from the system that the original singer's monster-like voice level can be as high as Ouyang Xiaoqing's. He can sing eb5 and g5 easily, and it's not even
Even if they roar, they can still sing with great quality!
But Ouyang Xiaoqing is still not up to this level - not because she is not talented enough, but because her singing experience and expressive ability are still far behind.
Therefore, Yang Qian hopes that she should keep her feet on the ground first and sing well before thinking about how to float!
"real?"
Ouyang Xiaoqing didn't think much about it. She just felt that her master was actually very supportive of her. Thinking that she could release herself to her heart's content, she jumped with joy.
What's going on? What's so exciting?
Jimmy Cagan was confused.
Yang Qian just spoke in Chinese out of concern for his apprentice's face, which was a bit unfriendly to Jimmy Cagan who didn't understand.
However, even if he was curious and wanted to find out, he couldn't get a word in front of Yang Qian who didn't stop.
"Don't get excited so early. Let me tell you what was wrong with my singing just now. If you listen carefully, there are still many flaws..."
Yang Qian stood next to the table, pressed the computer, and continued talking to Ouyang Xiaoqing.
...
"Jimmy, good morning!"
"Good morning, Yang. How was your rest last night?"
The next day, because Ari Ferre was coming today, Jimmy Cagan came to the practice room early on purpose. However, Yang Qian and Ouyang Xiaoqing came earlier than him, and they had already started the final session in the practice room.
Basic voice training - yes, Yang Qian is doing it too.
However, this time Jimmy Cagan had the opportunity to interject, and when Yang Qian saw him, he stopped and greeted him friendly.
"It's a little hard to sleep, I'm jet lagged."
Yang Qian shook his head with a wry smile.
There was no way, it was his first time going abroad, his first time suffering from jet lag, it was almost impossible to adjust at once.
Fortunately, Yang Qian didn't get up to do anything else because he couldn't sleep. He still counted ducks in bed and stayed up for two hours before finally falling asleep. At least he could replenish some energy and not be listless during the day in the United States.
"It doesn't matter, I'll ask Anna to make you a cup of coffee and bring it over to make sure you can cheer up!"
Jimmy Cagan said enthusiastically.
"No, Jimmy, I don't drink coffee to protect my throat."
Yang Qian refused simply, but also gave a reasonable explanation.
"Don't drink coffee to protect your throat? OK, you are a very dedicated singer."
Jimmy Cagan thought it was incredible. How could anyone refuse coffee? However, Jimmy Cagan still respected it.
There are really too few singers who respect their profession like Yang Qian - in the United States, there are countless talented singers who were ruined by various contrabands within a few years of becoming famous...
...
It didn't take long for Ouyang Xiaoqing to repeat last night's practice. The rap superstar Ari Feyre, who had been introduced many times by others, finally arrived!
