Backstage in the waiting area, Jiang Yuan and Lu Qingge had already changed into their performance clothes and were waiting to go on stage.
While waiting, Jiang Yuan subconsciously looked at Lu Qingge, who was standing next to him.
Lu Qingge wore a white high-tailored dress. The dress was decorated with gems and looked sparkling. Her makeup was different from before. It was a bit like a singer from the Republic of China period. It had a different charm and was still very beautiful.
After staring for a while, Jiang Yuan was a little surprised to find that there seemed to be a nervous look on this beautiful face.
Jiang Yuan couldn't help but ask, "Are you nervous?"
When Lu Qingge heard this, he nodded lightly, "It seems a little bit."
Not only Jiang Yuan, but Lu Qingge himself was a little confused.
After debuting for so many years, I have been on stage countless times. Although I will be nervous to some extent, it is basically not superficial.
I don’t know what happened this time? It couldn’t be because it was the first time to cooperate with Jiang Yuan. Lu Qingge was a little confused.
"Don't be nervous. We have already practiced it very well during the rehearsal. Just follow the rehearsal."
Jiang Yuan comforted him, subconsciously raised his hand, and then lowered his hand when he saw Lu Qingge's smooth shoulders.
"Well, okay." Lu Qingge was about to go on stage and quickly adjusted his posture.
I wanted to open my mouth to say a few more words, but when I saw the camera on the side working, I closed my mouth again.
After Qi read out the names of Jiang Yuan and Lu Qingge, an uproar was caused at the scene, and the audience exploded.
"Jiang Yuan actually collaborated with Lu Qingge!"
"I was shocked!"
"As long as you live long, you can really see any kind of cooperation!"
"It won't be a love song duet, right?"
"Judging from Jiang Yuan's previous cooperation with Ye Xuanqi, it's not completely impossible."
"But judging from the song title, it seems a bit sad!"
"How can it not be sad? If you look at the performance of a real couple after they break up, the sadder it is, the better it will be!"
"I understand!"
…
Behind the scenes, under the guidance of the staff, Jiang Yuan and Lu Qingge stepped onto the stage together.
Jiang Yuan and Lu Qingge appeared together on the stage that the prop team had just decorated.
This time the stage was built in a somewhat ancient opera hall, and the entire scene restored the style of the Republic of China period.
The appearance of Jiang Yuan and Lu Qingge also silenced the originally noisy scene for a moment.
Jiang Yuan wore a white shirt, brown vest and newsboy cap of the same color.
In terms of attire, there is a clear difference with Lu Qingge on the side.
But with his face, Jiang Yuan was able to hold up this outfit. When the lights came on, Liu Shenglun in the background couldn't help but sigh at what a perfect couple.
The audience obviously thought the same thing, and were stunned into silence for several seconds.
On the stage, Jiang Yuan and Lu Qingge looked at each other, nodded, and went to their respective stations, ready to start the performance.
Photographer Xiao Liu looked at the scene in the camera and couldn't help but nodded.
Even before the performance starts, the picture is already beautiful, no matter how you shoot it, it will look great.
After finding their respective stations, Jiang Yuan checked with the scene. The lights dimmed and then came on again, and the crisp bell rang.
The audience, who had just been immersed in the beauty of Jiang Yuan and Lu Qingge, were brought into the rhythm of the song as the chimes rang and began to listen carefully.
In the backstage hall, Shi Zhongxian was a little surprised when he listened to the prelude.
The song "Thousands of Miles Away" had only released a short chorus before, so I didn't expect that such an ancient instrument as a chime was used.
The bells rang several times, followed by music, piano, bass, erhu, guzheng...
The fusion of Western musical instruments and traditional musical instruments created a fairy-like atmosphere before the singing started, making some audience members close their eyes in enjoyment.
Then it quickly opened again.
Mainly because I felt a little embarrassed if I didn't look at Jiang Yuan and Lu Qingge's good-looking faces more often.
The prelude flowed slowly in the studio. Jiang Yuan held the microphone and looked at Lu Qingge. Listening to the beat prompted by his ear, he started singing.
"The eaves are like the cliff, the wind chimes are like the sea, I'm waiting for the return of the swallow"
"The time is arranged, an accident is staged, and you walk away quietly"
As the singing begins, the accompaniment has a clear ups and downs, with piano as the mainstay.
Jiang Yuan's singing voice was warm and full, singing into the hearts of the audience.
"The story is outside the city, and the thick fog cannot clear, so I can't see the dialogue clearly."
"You can't tell, the wind doesn't exist, it's me who is sighing."
After a week of practice and Lu Qingge's training, Jiang Yuan got the singing speed just right.
The control of breath and the release and release of emotions allow the audience to immerse themselves in the artistic conception created by the song.
The cliffs on the eaves, the vast sea of wind chimes, and the thick fog outside the city all seemed to appear in the minds of the audience one by one under Jiang Yuan's singing.
"When I wake up from the dream, who is on the window sill to open the ending?"
"The future is as thin as a cicada's wings and cannot withstand anyone's efforts to tear it down."
The melody became slightly louder, and Jiang Yuan's mood became more intense, making the audience tremble.
The cicada wings are so weak. In the future, no one will dare to dismantle or touch them compared to the cicada wings...
On the side of the stage, a man wearing glasses couldn't help but slap his thigh when he heard the end of this section.
Chen Hai looked at Li Keshou beside him speechlessly. If he wanted to pat his thigh, he would pat his own!
In view of the fact that every time "Beyond the Troubles" is broadcast, many music critics will comment on it on the Internet, and it is also very popular.
So this time, the program team simply invited some relatively popular music critics to come to the scene to watch and comment, and prepared to edit a music review special later.
Li Keshou felt a little excited after listening to Jiang Yuan's singing.
I have commented so many times on the Internet, and finally heard Jiang Yuan live again, and he gave such a powerful word.
Unlike other music critics, he has been writing and studying lyrics for more than ten years. He was staring at the lyrics and pondering them from the beginning of the performance.
First of all, the end of every line of lyrics rhymes with "ai", which is already very impressive.
But Li Keshou is not too surprised. After all, "Coral Sea" rhymes from beginning to end, and he is a rhyme addict.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! What amazed Li Keshou was that the lyrics, such as "The eaves are like cliffs, the wind chimes are like the sea, I am waiting for the return of the swallows" are full of images.
But in the next sentence, no imagery is mentioned at all.
Moreover, every lyric makes Li Keshou feel that it is worthy of careful consideration. It is not just a pile of words, but a real meaning and emotion contained in it.
Li Keshou wanted to share a few words about his feelings with Chen Hai, but then Lu Qingge's aria began, so he decided not to talk and listened attentively.
Chen Hai was also stroking his thigh with one hand and listening to the singing on the stage.
"I will send you away, thousands of miles away, you will be silent and black and white."
"In the age of silence, perhaps we should not fall in love too far away..."
Lu Qingge's clear singing voice sung on the stage.
The chorus part is the finishing touch, directly naming the song title.
Lu Qingge's singing voice and Jiang Yuan's singing voice form a distinct layer, which adds a lot of color to the song.
The audience at the scene couldn't help but feel a sense of surprise. Lu Qingge's voice suddenly sang in the chorus, which felt like big beads falling on a jade plate!
Backstage, Wang Xicun was sitting in the waiting room of his sisters, watching the live feed on the TV screen, and felt a little sad when he heard this part.
When I was choosing a song, I just listened to one section and felt that it was a very good song.
Now that I have listened to nearly half of the song, I feel this way even more.
If I had been competing for a song, if my hand speed had been faster, I would have been the one singing with Jiang Yuan on stage.
While Wang Xicun felt depressed, he felt that the song was very nice and he was enjoying his hearing.
Liu Zi and Fu Lianqi, who were sitting on both sides of Wang Xicun, felt a little sad watching Jiang Yuan's singing on TV.
But the sour point is slightly different from Wang Xicun's.
What the two of them thought more about was that if they could sing this song "Thousands of Miles Away", they would be considered to have participated in the first singing of the new song.
Maybe in the future, they can be used as a chorus and release this song together, and it will immediately become a big hit.
The thoughts of the sisters backstage will not be expressed for the time being. On the stage, Lu Qingge has already finished singing a chorus, which thoroughly enjoyed the audience.
This time it was Chen Hai's turn to look at the right opportunity and slap his thigh.
I took a picture of Li Keshou. He is quite vindictive.
Li Keshou was suddenly photographed, and just as he was about to have a fit, it was Jiang Yuan's turn to sing again, so the two of them continued to focus on the stage.
"Hearing the sound of tears, I went into the forest to look for white pear blossoms, only to find a line of moss.
The sky is outside the mountains and the rain is falling on the flower terrace, my temples are all gray.”
At the end of the chorus, Jiang Yuan immediately started a melodic ancient-style rap.
"Hearing the sound of tears, I went into the forest to look for white pear blossoms, only to find a line of moss.
The sky is outside the mountains, the rain is falling on the flower terrace, I am waiting for you to come."
There are four sentences in total. The lyrics are repetitive and a bit unfamiliar, presenting a sense of time.
After hearing this rap, Chen Hai and Li Keshou patted each other's thighs.
What Chen Hai was thinking was that this part was too good to sing. Suddenly adding such a rap part to the song made people's eyes light up, not to mention that Jiang Yuan sang so well.
Li Keshou’s eyes were even brighter. This paragraph was written extremely well.
As Jiang Yuan sang, he seemed to really see a person who heard the tears coming from the forest and went into the forest to search. All he found along the way was a patch of white pear blossoms and moss. He found that his temples were all gray. He had been looking for all his life.
Not found.
In just a few sentences, this image was outlined, which amazed Li Keshou.
As for the other music critics, although they were also amazed by the half-sung "Thousands of Miles Away", they still silently sat farther away from Chen Hai and the other two.
On the stage, Jiang Yuan sang rap and came to the center of the stage with Lu Qingge. The two looked at each other and Lu Qingge took the lead in singing.
"A glazed white body covered with dust, your flawless love"
"You came out of the rain to poeticize sorrow and I'm getting wet now"
Lu Qing sang, turning sideways towards Jiang Yuan. His singing was full of emotion and his performance was very stable.
"The shadows of fishing boats on the water of Hibiscus are still there but you are not coming back."
"Covered by time, the flowers you said bloomed and became blank."
Jiang Yuan and Lu Qingge looked at each other and sang in harmony.
The two of them each sang one line and reached the chorus.
"I will send you thousands of miles away, you will be silent and black and white"
“Perhaps we shouldn’t love each other too far away in the silent age.”
Lu Qing sang again. She had practiced these few lines over and over hundreds of times this week, and they were very charming.
Jiang Yuan sang with him,
"Will you still be there after I send you to the end of the world?"
"Where the sound of the piano comes from is hard to guess. It takes a lifetime to guess..."
The two of them were completely immersed in the performance and fully demonstrated their practice in the past few days on the stage.
The audience at the scene was sung into their hearts as the two sang.
For this performance, Jiang Yuan originally thought about moving the story of the song MV to the stage to create a singing stage.
This allows the audience to feel the story behind the song better and empathize more.
Unfortunately, the preparation time was too short, so the program team ultimately rejected the plan.
But now this is a stage with only scenes and singing by Jiang Yuan and the two of them, without too many plot performances.
To the audience, it seems as if a heart-stirring love movie has been played in their minds.
In literature, it’s called leaving a blank space, or it’s all up to the audience’s imagination.
After the chorus ends, there is a slight pause and the tune rises again.
Jiang Yuan and Lu Qingge's singing was also more emotional.
Jiang Yuan: "Where does the sound of the piano come from?"
Lu Qingge: "Life and death are hard to guess"
In the last sentence, Jiang Yuan and Lu Qingge looked at each other and completed the chorus together.
"Wait for a lifetime"
After singing, accompanied by the atmospheric music, the performance came to an end with Jiang Yuan and Lu Qingge looking at each other.
After the accompaniment ended, Jiang Yuan and Lu Qingge stared at each other for a long time.
The main thing is that I really sang myself in this scene.
Before the official performance, even during the rehearsal, neither of them was so thoroughly invested in the stage.
From this point of view, Jiang Yuan and Lu Qingge are quite similar.
As soon as I got on stage, I was very involved.
The audience followed the two men in silence for a few seconds, and then the studio burst into warm applause.
"Singing well!" Ma Zhuo couldn't help but applaud and praised backstage.
This time he also watched Jiang Yuan's rehearsal.
In his opinion, the rehearsal version was already very good. As a result, in this live performance, both in terms of singing and emotions, the two of them suddenly reached a new level.
It can be said to be a very perfect scene, the kind that can only be found once in a while.
"It's indeed very good!" Liu Shenglun also nodded.
I am very satisfied with my operation in inviting Lu Qingge and others to participate in the show.
Next door, "City Street Corner" asked Jiang Yuan and Ye Xuanqi to sing a duet together, creating a cp for "Ice and Snow Qiyuan".
Now I invite Lu Qingge to sing a song with Jiang Yuan like this.
It seems that I have seen the scene of another pair of new CPs rising up after the show was broadcast.
Thinking of this, Liu Shenglun couldn't help laughing, which startled Ma Zhuo beside him.
On the stage, Jiang Yuan and Lu Qingge also came to their senses amid the cheers and applause of the audience.
They looked at each other and bowed towards the audience to express their gratitude.
Then the host Qi Yi was also on the second stage and cueed Jiang Yuan and the others.
As Jiang Yuan and the two walked towards the second stage, the area where the music critic was on one side of the stage also exploded, and they started chattering.
The same was true for the audience in the audience. The studio was very lively for a while and there was a lot of discussion.
