In the waiting area, the captains and members of the other two tribes subconsciously sat upright after hearing Jiang Yuan's name being announced.
After the fourth performance, apart from Jiang Yuan’s tribe, only Shi Zhongxian’s tribe and Peng Benqian’s tribe were left.
During this performance, Shi Zhongxian’s tribe and Peng Benqian’s tribe had a somewhat alliance-like relationship.
Because in the previous draw, in the second round of the arena battle, the two tribes became the attackers. As long as one party gets more votes in the second round than the Jiang Yuan tribe, a family seat can be locked in advance.
At the last performance, the atmosphere became much more intense, and everyone wanted to win more seats for their tribe.
This round of the captain's extra points show has not even started yet, and Peng Benqian's expression has already turned serious.
Among the three captains, Jiang Yuan and Shi Zhongxian are both professional singers, and their singing skills are obviously much better than his.
Especially Jiang Yuan, who was the first to appear, put a lot of pressure on Peng Benqian.
After all, Peng Benqian also sees Jiang Yuan's performance in every performance, and his competitiveness is indeed very strong.
In the studio, the audience's eyes lit up when they heard Jiang Yuan's name.
"Did Jiang Yuan actually appear so early?"
"Jiang Yuan is actually the first one to appear today. I looked at the previous repo and every time I wait for Jiang Yuan, I have to wait for a long time."
"It's so profitable, it's actually the captain's personal show."
"I don't know what kind of music style it will be, but I feel like Jiang Yuan can handle many styles!"
"It doesn't matter what his style is, just Jiang Yuan's face, style doesn't matter!"
"It's true, I heard that Jiang Yuan is much more beautiful in person than on TV!"
As soon as Qi Yi finished speaking, it was as if a bomb had been dropped into the studio, and the audience was buzzing for a while.
Lu Qingge stood in the audience with his friends. Hearing the discussion around him, the corners of his mouth raised slightly. He did not expect that it would be Jiang Yuan's turn to come on stage so early.
Qi Yi held the card and waited for the noisy sound to fade away before continuing, "Captain Jiang Yuan, please give us a personal singing stage - "The Seventh Chapter of the Night"!"
Qi Yi announced the title of the song in a measured tone. Jiang Yuan packed up his equipment and walked towards the stage under the guidance of the staff.
The song "Chapter 7 of the Night" can be regarded as a rap song that mentions Jay Chou, so one song cannot be avoided.
The lyrics of the entire song are based on "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" as a clue. It can be said that every sentence is coherent. In the early years, he even invested four million yuan to go to the UK to shoot a music video specifically for this song.
Two weeks ago, Jiang Yuan opened this song from the treasure chest, a perfect piece of music.
Jiang Yuan didn't hide it, and immediately prepared to perform it in Wugong.
The audience in the studio were a little confused when they heard the title of the song, but they knew it was a new song as soon as they heard the title, so it didn't stop everyone from cheering and screaming.
In the boiling atmosphere in the studio, the lights went out and the performance officially began.
Because it is a rare one-man show on the stage of "Beyond the Troubles", in terms of stage design, Jiang Yuan simply sent the music video script to the program team before, thinking about whether it could be reproduced on the stage.
Of course, it was eventually rejected, but the program team still adopted some elements.
As soon as the lights came on, the audience couldn't help but scream.
The foreground of the stage was impressively decorated with a murder scene, a cordon, a dummy corpse, and various marked evidence.
As soon as the curtain is lifted, this scene is revealed, and the impact is obviously not small.
In the backstage waiting hall, Peng Benqian's face became more solemn when he saw the scene on the stage.
The prelude of the song sounded simultaneously at the moment of the stage appearance, and the playing of celesta and violin added a sense of mystery and suspense to the stage setting.
Then the addition of cello and string section created a sense of grandeur.
As the accompaniment appeared at the same time, there was also the tapping sound of the typewriter. Only then did the audience see that beyond the foreground of the stage, the back half was decorated as a study room.
Jiang Yuan was wearing a suit vest and woolen trousers with his back to the audience, his hands were tapping on the typewriter, and there was a lit pipe on the table.
As Jiang Yuan tapped, writings continued to appear on the big screen on the stage.
"It all started on that cold winter night, the thin air, the blue roses..."
From this moment on, the audience has entered the stage setting.
Backstage, Peng Benqian opened his mouth subconsciously, feeling that the exquisiteness of the stage seemed to be beyond his imagination.
In the studio, the rolling timpani seemed to herald the official start of the drama, and Jiang Yuan stopped typing.
The string music disappeared and was replaced by the bass of the synthesizer. Jiang Yuan turned slightly sideways and put on the coat hanging aside.
For this performance, music critics were still invited to the venue.
Chen Hai was already extremely excited after just listening to this prelude. The entire prelude was played in the style of classical music.
Coupled with this stage, the texture of the entire music is directly full.
After a slight pause in the prelude, Jiang Yuan put on his hat, turned around, picked up the rhythm of the snare drum, and started singing.
"1983, alley, sunny December"
"In the seventh chapter of the night, the typewriter continues to push the next line closer to the truth..."
Jiang Yuan entered the "evil scene" on the stage while singing.
As soon as the rap part started, many viewers were amazed.
With the support of multiple skills, Jiang Yuan's rapping tone and pronunciation are very pleasant to the ear. Coupled with the narrative nature of his voice and the lyrics that are full of narrative, the audience suddenly has the illusion of the opening of a movie.
"The mist from the heather pipe floats towards the withered trees, crying to me silently."
"In the circular square next to Baker Street, on the arm of the knight in armor, the emblem of fleur-de-lis shines slightly."
Jiang Yuan sang while walking around the "evil scene".
According to the music critic, Chen Hai has already started to move his head to the rhythm of the song.
Chen Hai actually doesn’t listen to rap music very often.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But the melodic rap like "The Seventh Chapter of the Night" still captured his ears immediately.
And what Chen Hai likes very much is that during Jiang Yuan's singing, the rap part fits very well with the accompaniment of the entire song, and every position is clicked just right, making it very comfortable to listen to.
"The sound of the driverless carriage, the late-night visit, the evil under the moonlight of Victoria, the bloody opening"
"The missing pistol, the blackened cane, the melted wax statue"
Jiang Yuan's rapping is like part of the arrangement itself, which is the focus of Chen Hai's attention.
The focus of the audience's attention was the singing and Jiang Yuan's performance on the stage.
On the stage, Jiang Yuan was singing and pacing slowly, like a detective investigating the scene.
The lyrics are sung in the form of rap, paused and orderly. Although the audience has difficulty understanding the meaning, they have an inexplicable feeling of watching a detective movie and the mystery is being revealed bit by bit as Jiang Yuan sings.
"Who is not present, on the jewelry box, the illusion of symbols"
"Contradictions lead to the dead end he piled up, the evidence is perfectly buried, and the corners of the mouth that mock Scotland Yard are raised."
Jiang Yuan sang, stopped looking at the evidence, stood in the center of the stage, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
The expression on his face that he was confident of winning was like a detective who had already figured out the truth of the incident before anyone knew what happened.
This scene also made some viewers in the audience couldn't help but scream.
Jiang Yuan's appearance is already extremely lethal, not to mention the detective appearance at this moment, coupled with such a smile.
Different from Jiang Yuan's usual appearance, he has a sense of being a detective who is both good and evil.
Conflicting temperaments appear in the same person, and Jiang Yuan's already ridiculously good looks are once again added points.
Even Lu Qingge in the audience couldn't help but lose consciousness for a moment.
Lu Qingge's friend even said directly, "He is indeed handsome!"
In the backstage hall, He Jing looked at this scene and felt very excited.
As a director who was about to collaborate with Jiang Yuan, he couldn't wait to see Jiang Yuan's outstanding acting skills on stage.
"The Temptation of Going Home" suddenly became even more tempting.
On the stage, after the rap part ended, the stage lights changed into a more psychedelic dark light.
Under the dim light, Jiang Yuan's expression changed again and he began to sing the chorus.
The chorus of this song was originally a female voice, but at this time it was a solo show and could only be performed by Jiang Yuan himself.
And Jiang Yuan’s vocal range is already wide, so singing the chorus is no problem.
"If evil is a gorgeous and cruel music,
I will write its ending with my own hands."
From the rap to the chorus melody, Jiang Yuan's singing has a gorgeous feeling, which adds a lot of drama to the whole performance.
Under the singing of the chorus, there is also a rap part recorded in advance by Jiang Yuan.
"So justice is a deep and helpless melancholy,
Then I will light up, the glimmer of light in the ashes..."
The gorgeous melody and rap intertwined, giving a sense of dialogue and echo, which made Chen Hai extremely excited.
The chorus section seems to elevate the entire performance to a new level.
As soon as the chorus ended, Chen Hai immediately exclaimed again.
In the accompaniment part, directly after the end of the chorus, there is a rising tone.
This rising tone gives people a hearty and refreshing feeling during the progression of the music. Chen Hai felt very happy at the moment.
During the interlude, under dim lights, Jiang Yuan left the "scene of the murder" and returned to the "study" on the stage.
After sitting down at the desk, the accompaniment paused just right, the strings dropped rapidly, and transitioned to the B section of the song, and Jiang Yuan continued to sing.
"Facts can only pass through, the soil without footprints, the subtle fragrance of flowers, and the clothing that is deliberately conspicuous."
"Everyone can lie wearing a mask for different reasons, and there is only one motive called desire."
Jiang Yuan sings a very rhythmic rap while playing with the puzzle props on his desk.
Playing the role of a detective who has found all the clues and is piecing together the final truth, he is ready to reveal the secret to everyone.
"far father father far
farther the far farther far far”
"Crossing the swamp of human nature, who can really not be stained? We can forget and forgive, but we must know the truth..."
As Jiang Yuan sang, the audience's emotions progressed further and they continued to get deeper into the plot.
At this time, Li Keshou, who was sitting next to Chen Hai and had been silent, finally became excited.
From the beginning of the singing of "Chapter 7 of Night", Li Keshou has remained silent.
He is a person who specializes in lyrics, and the lyrics of this song made him feel confused from the beginning.
There are a lot of words piled up, but I can't find the answer.
This made Li Keshou feel very strange, because none of Jiang Yuan's previous songs had made him feel like this.
However, as Jiang Yuan's singing and performance progressed, the narrative sense of the song became stronger and stronger.
Although it seems to tell a complete story, it is not that complete. This is Li Keshou's first feeling.
It is actually normal for Li Keshou to feel like this. After all, the entire lyrics of "Night Chapter 7" are a tribute to "Sherlock Holmes"
Almost every sentence can be found in "Sherlock Holmes".
After hearing this, Li Keshou understood this and became excited.
"This song!" Li Keshou looked excited.
When Chen Hai heard this, he turned his head in confusion. This song was indeed very powerful, and he agreed.
However, Li Keshou only reacted at this time, which was a little too slow. Chen Hai shook his head in his heart.
"The lyrics of this song! There is definitely a novel hidden behind it!" Li Keshou expressed his thoughts.
At the same time, I was amazed by this idea.
Li Keshou obviously had a deep misunderstanding and mistakenly thought that Jiang Yuan had written a novel specifically for this song.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Chen Hai was also a little shocked when he heard Li Keshou's thoughts.
On the stage, Jiang Yuan finally put together the last piece of the puzzle in his hand.
"The iron bed that has been moved, the last piece of the picture is finally put together"
Jiang Yuan raised his head, put down the puzzle, stood up from his seat, and walked towards the typewriter.
"I heard footsteps, the expected soft leather heels,
He opened the door and flicked the kerosene lamp for a while."
"The typewriter stopped at the murderer's name and I turned around,
The night sky over Westminster Abbey begins to boil.”
While Jiang Yuan was singing, he typed twice on the typewriter.
This bridge section between section B and the chorus further stimulates the audience's listening sense.
It feels very refreshing to listen to it, and from the stage performance, it also reaches a climax of the plot.
The accompaniment here is specially paused in order to match the performance.
Jiang Yuan typed twice on the typewriter, then turned around, there was a gunshot, and the accompaniment continued.
"Blooming in my chest, gorgeous death, I taste this last sweet bite of truth"
"Smile and remember that justice is only done quietly, the violin is in the Thames"
After this part of the singing ended, the lights dimmed, Jiang Yuan took off his coat and threw it in front of the typewriter, symbolizing the dead detective.
Then the chorus part rises again.
"If evil is a gorgeous and cruel piece of music, I will write its ending with my own hands..."
This is a trio. In addition to Jiang Yuan's own singing and rap pads, the female vocals of the harmony group are also added.
Pushing the song to a climax again.
But, this is not the end!
The last chorus of the original song was sung by Jay himself, and Jiang Yuan’s choice was to raise the key again!
At this time, the piano also went crazy with Jiang Yuan's singing in a rising key and started dancing wildly.
"The light of morning dries the last line of sadness,
Black ink, dyed with tranquility."
Many viewers had goosebumps at this last moment.
Chen Hai had already stood up from his seat. This song, from the beginning to the end, every part, he was so excited about.
After the singing, the piano continued to play, Jiang Yuan turned around, the whole performance slowly came to an end, and the studio was silent.
