"Your singing voice is very good, but your composition is average.
I suggest you go to Qianqian's Shengshi Magic Sound Circuit. My place is not suitable for you. Thank you, you can go."
From the very beginning of the program, after the contestants entered the stage, Li Hyuk began to make sharp comments, seemingly without any intention of giving the contestants any face.
With his current status, it would be too humiliating to give face to an unknown player.
So Li Hyuk behaved very wildly and was not polite at all.
Some netizens who watched the show felt that what Li Hyuk said was a bit too much. Isn't it a good idea to save some face for other contestants?
But many netizens also support Li Hyuk's approach. Everyone has seen enough of the talent show with false emotions.
There are very few mentors or star promoters like Xiang Li Hyuk who dare to tell the truth and criticize outright.
Therefore, this episode makes the audience find it refreshing, and at the same time, they also feel that "Tomorrow's Son" is different from other talent shows.
It is certain that he will be on the hot search. Now Li Hyuk's popularity remains high, and every news related to him can attract a lot of attention.
"This is a competition that compares creation with talent. If you were all rap, it would be a bit embarrassing."
"I will never sing until I die..."
"Then what are you here for?"
"Teacher, don't you know how to rap?"
"But have you ever seen that I only know how to rap? You can go."
After the player left, Li He showed a rare smile: "This player has a lot of personality. He is the first player who dared to refute me, but his creations did not let me see the bright spots, so I don't
I'll let him pass."
Zhang Dada reminded: "But now we have only selected two players, and there is still a lot to be done!"
"It doesn't matter, keep going. I don't believe you can find a singer-songwriter who doesn't follow the crowd." Li Hyuk motioned for the program to continue.
These interesting things that happened during the filming of the show were edited out when the show was broadcast.
Those eliminated contestants only had one or two scenes, and netizens called Li Hyuk too strict.
Su Yutong and Zhou Yawen were very happy with their food. Seeing Li He's sharp comments, they both felt a little sympathy for these players.
The next contestant to appear is Zhou Zhengnan, who is the second most popular contestant on the single show track in this issue. He doesn’t look like a girl, he is very handsome, and he can sing and dance rap basketball.
I went on stage and sang a rap song, which was okay...
After listening to it, Li Hyuk commented: "You are one of the few contestants I have seen this time who did not imitate my rap style. Although there is a bit of innovation in the composition, your lyrics are not enough to impress me."
Zhou Zhengnan, who had promised to advance before the start, became nervous. Li He said this, which meant that the contestants were eliminated.
Although Zhou Zhengnan is second on the popularity list, he can rely on netizens' votes to come back.
Who knew that Li He would change the subject: "However, I appreciate your independent attitude. To make music, you must have your own attitude.
If lyricism is popular today, everyone will do it. Tomorrow, if jazz is popular, everyone will follow suit and do jazz.
What about reggae music, which is popular the day after tomorrow, and R&B, which is popular the day after tomorrow?
Therefore, although you have shortcomings, your attitude towards persisting in your own music is very commendable, therefore, you received Chaoji 666."
When Zhou Zhengnan heard Li He's words, he couldn't help cheering. Oh my God, he was promoted. God knows how nervous he was just now.
The next person to appear was a contestant who came back from the United States, named Ma Boqian. He was also very handsome, and he also played rap, and he brought an English rap song.
After listening to it, Li Hyuk commented: "Your rap is very pure. I have collaborated with BOB before, you know?"
Ma Boqian nodded: "I know, I like that song very much and I have been playing it on repeat for a long time."
"That was my second English single. It topped the Billboard chart and stayed at the top for three weeks." Lee Hyuk held up three fingers.
"I am not saying this to show off my achievements. You know, when I learned that I had a champion single, I was actually not very happy.
Because this is an English song, not a Chinese song." Li He said.
Zhang Dada asked: "Then, why do you still compose English songs?"
"It's very simple, because in today's music scene, Europe and the United States are the mainstream, and Chinese songs cannot be integrated into it.
If I only wanted to live in China, I wouldn't have to work so hard to make music."
Zhou Yawen looked at what Li He said on the screen and nodded in agreement.
Indeed, Li Hyuk's popularity is already very high now. If we only consider the domestic market, there is no need to do a lot of marketing work.
But on the contrary, Fantasy Records, Penguin, and Sony Music are all vigorously promoting and marketing Li Hyuk's music overseas.
"So, I came up with an idea at that time. Since you can't listen to Chinese songs, I will write English songs so that you can listen, and then let you listen to Chinese songs to eliminate prejudice.
I also hope that when the contestants come to this stage, they will try their best to sing in Chinese and Chinese-language songs.
After all, this is not "The Voice", and everyone wants to hear excellent Chinese pop music, what do you think?" Li He asked Ma Boqian.
Ma Boqian nodded and said: "I understand, teacher..."
"OK, don't call me teacher. I hope you can bring an excellent Chinese pop rap song next time. Congratulations on your promotion." Li He sent a super lucky 666.
Ma Boqian originally thought that Li He would eliminate him after a long speech, but he did not expect that he would advance.
I was so happy that I went back to work on my creation.
From here, everyone can understand Li He's criteria for selecting people. First, they must have their own attitude, expression and thoughts, and do not follow what others say.
The second is to stick to Chinese-language pop music and not engage in the trend of favoring foreigners that is common in the current pop music circle.
The third is that it is best to have real materials. If you try to fool around with the idea of plagiarism, Li He, who is well-informed, will definitely catch it.
Previously, a contestant plagiarized a song by the King of Pop, Michael Jackson. The rhythm and arrangement were very similar, but he changed a Chinese lyric.
Li Hyuk said bluntly: "Have you bought the rights to adapt this song?"
The contestant said harshly: "This is my own creation..."
Li Hyuk directly interrupted the contestant: "You think I can't hear it? This is clearly "Billie Jean", a song from Michael Jackson's 1982 album "Thriller".
Please, please find a singer I don’t know next time to plagiarize.”
This player was not edited into the main film, but some news leaked from certain channels, which still made many netizens aware of this matter.
Nowadays, plagiarism and song-washing are severely punished, but there are still those who go against the trend and commit crimes. These are also very smart, plagiarizing English songs that Chinese fans are not familiar with, and openly treating them as their own original works.
Li Hyuk would also like to thank his superiors for cracking down on this kind of plagiarism, otherwise he, the original creator, might not be as popular as the plagiarizing singer one day.
There is nothing much to say about the content of the program after that. Except for one Mao Buyi who is a bit interesting, Li He's senses are average. He barely selects eight contestants to advance, and then the network votes to select four contestants to form the ten who are the only show in the prosperous era.
