Luo Yan was the sixth one to appear. She was sitting in front of a laptop in her exclusive lounge and watching online comments about the show.
The program "Best Singer and Composer" has been pre-heated for a long time, so as soon as the program was launched, the discussion on the Internet directly dominated all major websites.
The person singing on stage now is Su Ran, whom Luo Yan met in the recording studio yesterday.
"What kind of abuse is this? Su Ran's singing skills are obviously not very good..." Luo Yan muttered in a low voice.
Luo Yan looked at the various comments that flashed through the live show. As a quasi-professional singer, she could tell that Su Ran's success was far less than hers.
This can only be considered a mid-level level among professional singers.
But Su Ran's stage presence is very good, and her steps and inadvertent little moves while singing fully demonstrate the aura of a stage queen.
Coupled with Su Ran's accumulation of popularity over the years, after she sang a new song, the number of votes cast by the audience behind her instantly exceeded one million, and it continues to rise.
"Luo Yan..."
Song Zhening was currently in the lounge with Luo Yan, and after hearing her words, he couldn't help but remind her.
"I'm sorry, Teacher Song. Teacher Su Ran's singing skills are much better than mine." Luo Yan then realized that she had said the wrong thing when talking to herself.
This lounge is a very private space. It is not very big, so it can give people a sense of security.
But Luo Yan remembered that there were cameras filming her, and when she came on stage, the audience would see the expressions of the lyrics and composer behind the scenes.
"Your singing skills are indeed much better than that girl Su Ran, but you just debuted and you can't talk to your seniors like that, you know?" Song Zhening had already recognized Luo Yan's singing skills in the recording studio yesterday.
"I know, this is something I've been paying attention to."
Luo Yan can control her emotions very well when facing boys younger than herself, but she will inevitably be nervous on such important occasions.
"It's your turn to play, don't let down the song "Jiang Shan" I wrote." Song Zhening said.
"No! I practiced for a long time yesterday!"
Luo Yan walked out of the lounge and went to the backstage of the stage. Of course, Su Ran was promoted without any suspense. When she bumped into Luo Yan behind the scenes, she nodded lightly as encouragement.
Even Su Ran's singing skills can be favored by the three judges. It will definitely be no problem to advance with her singing skills.
With this mood, Luo Yan took the first step in her acting career and stepped onto the dazzling stage.
The stage for the best singer-songwriter was set up at the level of a concert. The entire venue was like a large theater, with the audience sitting on two floors.
The four judges adopted a pass-by-light system, and there was nothing too fancy.
When Luo Yan stepped on the stage, the lights on the entire stage lit up with warm colors. What she was wearing today was a light red fairy skirt.
This time she took the ancient style route on stage, which is also the most suitable route for her.
When the chilling accompaniment of guzheng and ruan qin sounded, Luo Yan clenched the microphone in her hand and looked at the four judges in the distance.
"Jiang Shan" written by Song Zhening is a very difficult song to perform. It can be said that it was specially customized for Zhao Kewei.
This song tells the story of a female general who instantly conquered the country with her sword.
There are many high and low parts in the song, and there is also a very high-pitched Beijing-style singing in the middle.
When Luo Yan said she wanted to sing this song, Song Zhening shook her head and said that only Zhao Kewei could sing this song.
But she just didn't believe that she could lose to Zhao Kewei in singing skills, and then her perfect performance in the recording studio conquered teacher Song Zhening.
Now...she wants to conquer these four judges and tens of millions of viewers in front of the TV.
Luo Yan put her lips against the microphone and sang the first lyrics, gracefully and leisurely, but Song Zhening, who was listening behind the scenes, still shook his head gently.
Because Luo Yan lacks a certain momentum, it is definitely very suitable for her to sing songs about the cries of ancient court ladies, but it is still too difficult to interpret a female general.
But Luo Yan still sang this song perfectly on a technical level.
Although she lacked the sense of momentum that Song Zhening wanted, such as "one general in charge", "fearless" and "unstoppable", Luo Yan's singing skills were enough for Song Zhening to silently applaud her.
Of course, the audience on the stage also applauded Luo Yan's performance. The lights of the four judges lit up three times instantly, and even Yuan Chengjing also applauded Luo Yan.
"Thank you to the four judges and teachers..." Luo Yan suppressed her inner excitement and bowed slightly towards the stage.
"Finally, I saw a new face. I thought this stage was full of old people having a big fight." Zhang Yu first teased that the seven previous singers were all old friends who have been famous for a long time, and then faced
Luo Yan asked, "Let's introduce yourself to the audience..."
Luo Yan's introduction was very short. Because she was a newcomer, the four judges grabbed Luo Yan and praised her as much as they could.
This made Luo Yan feel like she was floating in the sky, so much so that when she walked off the stage and saw Qiu Yuan standing behind the scenes, she finally couldn't hide her wagging fox tail.
"Junior Qiuyuan!"
Luo Yan happily jumped in front of Qiu Yuan, and then showed her two millet teeth to Qiu Yuan.
"Do you regret not teaming up with your senior sister?"
"If I regret it now, can I form a team with my senior sister?" Qiu Yuan dealt with Luo Yan, a master dog catcher, with ease.
"I don't have a chance this time, but if you want to do it next time, junior, senior sister will welcome you."
Luo Yan was not swallowed up by the huge sense of success. She knew that Teacher Song Zhening was only temporary, and Qiu Yuan, a junior student, had deceived him forever.
"By the way, where is your partner Zhao Kewei?"
Luo Yan looked around behind the stage and found that Zhao Kewei was nowhere to be seen.
"She was still adjusting in the lounge and needed to be alone, so I was kicked out temporarily." Qiu Yuan shrugged helplessly.
In fact, it was Qiu Yuan who teased her about wanting to be stepped on by Sister Ke Wei, but she was beaten and kicked out of the lounge by Zhao Kewei.
But maybe she was under really great psychological pressure and needed to be alone to adjust before going on stage.
"Then let's go sit in Senior Sister's lounge now. It won't be too much of a hindrance."
Luo Yan invited Qiu Yuan enthusiastically, not even giving Qiu Yuan room to refuse.
Qiu Yuan had no reason to refuse. Behind the stage, Qiu Yuan could only use his mobile phone to watch the live broadcast.
The worst thing is that the signal behind the stage is not very good and there is no WIFI.
Qiu Yuan followed Luo Yan to her lounge. The layout of this lounge was no different from the lounge where Zhao Kewei was. The biggest difference was that the smell of perfume on Luo Yan was much heavier than that of Zhao Kewei.
Song Zhening sat on a high stool in the lounge and watched Luo Yan bring Qiu Yuan back. Although he was a little surprised, he quickly returned to calm.
The atmosphere between the three of them in the lounge was a bit silent. If Luo Yan and Qiu Yuan were alone, Luo Yan would definitely try her best to rub Qiu Yuan's heartstrings in every possible way.
But with the elder Song Zhening present, Luo Yan could only act quiet and well-behaved.
"Qiu Yuan, what's the name of the song you wrote for Ke Wei?"
Song Zhening suddenly asked because he saw Zhao Kewei finally stepped onto the stage.
Three years have passed, and Zhao Kewei is still so brilliant.
But anyone who understands her character knows that Zhao Kewei is strong on the outside but a very delicate girl on the inside.
Song Zhening wanted to partner with Zhao Kewei because he knew how much pressure Zhao Kewei would have to endure when he stepped on this stage.
That's why he chose to give Zhao Kewei the song "Jiang Shan", which was at the bottom of the box, because the song was completely full of momentum, but it was a pity that Luo Yan couldn't perform it.
"Yezi..." Qiu Yuan said the name of the song.
"Junior brother, what kind of strange song title is this?" Luo Yan asked with a smile beside her.
"Qiong means restless in Chinese? It seems to also mean wild child..." Song Zhening was more knowledgeable, and he immediately understood the meaning of the word.
"Um."
Song Zhening frowned when he saw Qiu Yuan admitting it, because Zhao Kewei, who was standing on the stage at this time, was shaking slightly while holding the microphone.
"I should remind you, Qiu Yuan... the first song you write for Ke Wei shouldn't be too out-of-the-box, or did you just prepare this one song? She has a wide vocal range, sing her something powerful.
The songs are better." Song Zhening said.
As soon as Song Zhening finished speaking, the piano accompaniment sounded on the stage.
Zhao Kewei held the microphone tightly and sang softly, her first lyrics on stage in three years.
Then it went out of tune perfectly.
This was an out-of-tune sound that even a layman could hear. Even Song Zhening couldn't believe it was sung by Zhao Kewei.
Of course Zhao Kewei also realized that she was out of tune, but it was really difficult for her to control her emotions now.
Because she felt Zhang Yu's eyes, which were not the triumphant eyes of a victor, but deep fear and panic.
Zhang Yu also understood that Zhao Kewei's appearance on the stage meant that his biggest scandal would be uncovered and exposed to the public.
This is not good for him or Zhao Kewei. In the end, only one person can stand on this stage.
Zhao Kewei forced himself to continue singing. His voice was still a little out of tune, but the audience had no problem listening to it.
The arrangement seems not as good as "Jiang Shan"?
Luo Yan was more concerned about the arrangement of this song. She listened carefully and found that the arrangement of this song was very simple.
Unlike Jiang Shan who has all kinds of fancy musical instruments, this song currently only sounds like piano...
But when Luo Yan heard the fourth line of the lyrics, she immediately felt something was wrong.
Zhao Kewei's singing is still a little off-key, and that slight trembling feeling is filled with every word and pronunciation in the lyrics.
But it was this awkward articulation that made Luo Yan freeze up and stare intently at the stage.
"Why, the stronger the wind, the more my heart wanders." Luo Yan subconsciously hummed along with Zhao Kewei's singing.
"Brother, your song is very simple. Senior sister can also sing it very well." Luo Yan hummed a sentence or two and raised her hand to pat Qiu Yuan's shoulder.
Zhao Kewei on the stage suddenly raised his voice!
But Sister Wei's high notes are really impeccable. At this moment, she released all the grievances and uneasiness she had accumulated over the past three years in the climax of the song.
That kind of indomitable and fearless momentum burst out from Zhao Kewei's singing.
Hearing this sound, Luo Yan's whole body felt numb, and the hand that originally wanted to slap Qiu Yuan's shoulder softly and weakly rested on Qiu Yuan's shoulder.
This song does have this charm. Just listening to it can make people draw strength from the song and give them the courage to move forward.
When the first verse was finished and there was a piano interlude, Zhao Kewei put down the microphone and looked up at the lights on the stage.
Qiu Yuan is frantically playing around with various system rewards.
"You've got the perfect opportunity to write a TV drama script·5 episodes"
"You've got the perfect opportunity to write a TV drama script·5 episodes"
"You've got a perfect cooking opportunity"
"You received a 2,000 yuan reward"
This may be the most generous reward Qiu Yuan has received since becoming a gold miner.
But Sister Wei's situation now is as if she almost fell off a cliff, and then Qiu Yuan suddenly jumped out and grabbed her hand.
The stage full of doubts and slander is like a cliff to Zhao Kewei. If he takes one wrong step, he will fall off. And the song written by Qiu Yuan is like a rope that Zhao Kewei must hold tightly.
When the piano interlude ended and Zhao Kewei looked at the judges' seat again, Zhang Yu's expression was already stiff. The better Zhao Kewei performed, the more scared he became.
On the other hand, Won Sung Kyung and the other two judges sitting next to Zhang Yu had incredible expressions on their faces.
The arrangement of Nozi's song is indeed very plain and simple, but not everyone can sing this song. It still requires a kind of emotional investment and momentum, which is something that no matter how high your singing skills are, it can't make up for it.
But Zhao Kewei’s singing skills are good, and his emotional investment is excellent. These two factors overlap...
Zhao Kewei's performance will definitely be included in the list of "One hundred songs you must listen to before the college entrance examination", "Listen to these songs when you are disappointed with the world", "Give you the power to move forward" and other strange websites
Among the Suppressing Clouds song list.
The performance, which lasted less than three minutes, came to an end with Sister Ke Wei's final note that made people tremble.
"This is indeed the feeling that Luo Yan can't sing no matter what she does." Song Zhening sighed after listening to it.
Luo Yan heard this and did not refute Song Zhening. Like most of the audience who were enjoying the song in front of the TV, her eyes were tightly captured by Zhao Kewei's figure standing on the stage.
In the end, Zhao Kewei's audience vote was 2.7 million votes, and the judges' lights were all on. No one dared to question Zhao Kewei's performance on the stage.
The audience was intoxicated by the touch that Zhao Kewei's singing brought to them and the power that the singing gave them. The judges were amazed by Zhao Kewei's unique singing voice and unparalleled stage performance.
And the cloud media behind all this saw Zhao Kewei's commercial value at a glance.
So there was a message from Lin Wanqiu on Qiuyuan's WeChat.
"Qiu Yuan has informed me of something. I hope you can accompany me to convey this matter to Ke Wei. Is persuasion more appropriate here?"
'What's up?'
'The higher-ups hope that Ke Wei can publicly apologize to Zhang Yu, so that all the past things can be revealed. I can also promise you that I will use all the resources at hand to push Ke Wei and give back all the things she has lost in the past three years.
she.'
Qiu Yuan was silent for a long time while looking at this message.
Is he worthy of being the public relations officer of Cloud Media? Qiu Yuan had to sigh that this "I want it all" move was really good.
Zhao Kewei and Zhang Yu were incompatible when they were in the same agency. The day Zhao Kewei was in Cloud Media, the day she would be exposed online by Zhang Yu's fans.
In addition, after this concert, Zhao Kewei's fans will probably grow rapidly, and Zhao Kewei's popularity will also skyrocket.
These two forces are originally Cloud Media's own eggs. If their own eggs are beaten and smashed, it will be Cloud Media itself that loses in the end.
So now all it takes is for one party to bow its head to the other.
As long as Zhao Kewei publicly apologizes to Zhang Yu, with Zhao Kewei's ability, it is only a matter of time before he can reach the top of the Chinese music scene.
Money, status, reputation, all these can be obtained by Zhao Kewei just by lowering his head.
'You don't need to speak, just follow me to see Ke Wei. This is me begging you, not ordering you. Please help me for Ke Wei, okay?'
This news from Lin Wanqiu made Qiu Yuan see her inner struggle.
Qiu Yuan didn't get along with this somewhat lazy and carefree female agent for long, but Qiu Yuan still understood that she was a very realistic person.
"I don't think Sister Ke Wei will bow to Zhang Yu for me." Qiu Yuan also replied to Lin Wanqiu seriously.
'Will do.'
'Why are you so sure?'
Qiu Yuan feels that his current relationship with Zhao Kewei is just...a close confidant.
How could Zhao Kewei, with his self-esteem, bow to his former enemy after just a few words of advice from Qiu Yuan?
'Because she definitely still wants to sing the song you wrote on stage. If she doesn't, she will make you wait for another two years.'
Lin Wanqiu was looking at Zhao Kewei on the stage now, and she could see tears in Zhao Kewei's eyes.
Zhao Kewei still has a contract with Cloud Media. If other brokerage companies want to sign Zhao Kewei, the liquidated damages they need to pay are a sky-high price that is difficult to pay.
'It's too much to ask me to wait for two years, but I can't stop you. You can just tell her face to face when you meet her.'
Qiu Yuan still feels that he doesn't hold that much weight in her heart. After all, anyone can write songs for her.
