I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 165 Lost! (23)

"It's not my original creation. It was written by Mr. Takahashi Yu. I first listened to his song "Candy" and thought it was great. Then I listened to "Jealous" and was moved. I wrote a line, 'I once turned my youth into her, and played the midsummer with my fingertips'... Then I wrote a whole song and went to Japan to visit Mr. Takahashi Yu and got the adaptation rights..."

Entering the lounge, Wang Feng asked about "The Wind Rises", and Shen Liang explained...

"Takahashi Yuu..."

"He is a very warm person. Candy discusses school bullying... I also like it very much and want to buy the adaptation rights, but he disagrees. He said that Candy is his real experience. To write about school bullying, you need to invest your own emotions..."

"Then did you write it?"

Shen Liang scratched his head and asked in a consulting tone: "I'm considering what style is suitable. I think hip-hop is more direct..."

"rap?"

"I think Chinese rap should have something to say, to express what one wants to express, rather than just singing about American songs like I have money, I have a girlfriend, I'm a slut... like crazy!"

Wang Feng patted his shoulder and said, "That's a good idea...it can be put into practice...rock style is also fine!"

"Let me try..."

Oh, Hua Chenyu was silent, I don’t know what he was thinking...

The replacement singer for this episode is Yu Kewei.

Yu Kewei is a professional singer, she sang "Time Cooks Rain"...

"Time Cooks Rain" is certainly nice to listen to, but it is not competitive at all.

To be honest, this is not a good choice!

"Singer" is a competitive stage. The singers who participate are all relatively mature singers. Singing well is just a basic requirement. Not only must they sing well, but they must also be able to perform tricks.
So, "Time Cooks Rain" is at the bottom...

Hong Tao announced the rankings, "Time Cooks Rain" is sixth, not at the bottom, the bottom is Zhang Tian's "Hello"...

It's so bad that she sang it with a serious sense of comedy.

Whether it's his emotional expression, singing ability, or stage performance, it's all terrible!

Maybe the last issue of "Shape of You" had an impact on her...

But this should not be an excuse for poor performance!

This is "Singer", everyone should perform at their best.

Then, the first place was announced, Jessie J's "Killing Me Softly", an old song that is nearly thirty years old, but she sang it very well.

And with the addition of stage performances, the entire stage has a Broadway feel...

Not only does she sing well, she also acts well. Her facial expressions, body movements and vocals are highly unified with the mood of the songs, creating an amazing audio-visual feast.

Shen Liang asked the staff - can the stage be built like this?
The staff said, "For stage design, the singer's opinions can be taken into account~"

Then... for the next episode of "Walking Fish", Shen Liang does have some ideas for the stage...

By the way, this competition made Shen Liang look at Wang Feng with new eyes. He was really good at flattering people. When Hong Tao announced that Jessie J was the champion again, Wang Feng said: "Jessie J's coming to this program has a very important role - she tells us what is good. Because many times when we say a song is good, it is just a concept, such as 'this one is really good', 'this one is OK'.

If a child asks me now what good music is, I will simply say: "Listen to Jessie J's songs first." She can tell you very clearly that her breath, her musicality, and her understanding of music are all good! "

Such a good talker!
Kevin Tsai likes...

Then the second place was announced, "Nunchucks"...

The camera was specifically focused on Shen Liang, who had a bad expression...

Hua Chenyu also said: "I like Zhou Jielun very much, and it was very stressful to adapt this song... I could have chosen not to adapt it, but I got over it in my heart.

Once music is made for others to see, just to meet the audience's expectations, the music will not be pure. When I decided to change this song, I stayed up for several days and nights to adapt it. In fact, I was just doing what I like. I have to be worthy of myself. "

Hong Tao looked at Shen Liang: "What does Shen Liang think?"

Shen Liang picked up the microphone: "Are you sure you want me to speak?" "...You speak first..."

"I told you, you can't broadcast it... why bother talking about it!"

"Tell me..."

Shen Liang didn't even look at Hua Chenyu, and said, "Popular music is to serve the public. If you want to make pure music, then make classical music... In addition, the adaptation of the song "Nunchucks" did not change the classic melody at all, but just added an opening. Is this also called an adaptation? And you didn't sleep for several days and nights..."

There was silence for a moment...

Hua Chenyu looked very unhappy...

Hong Tao quickly changed the subject: "The Wind Rises ranked third... Shen Liang, what do you want to say?"

Lost!

Shen Liang suppressed his anger and said, "...You can go to QQ Music and NetEase Cloud Music to listen to the recorded version, and then compare it with the live version... This song is very nice, I believe it will become popular! I also believe that time will prove the value of this song!"

……

"I look down on him, and he looks down on me too...it's normal!"

“…It shouldn’t be that serious…”

"This is also the highlight of the show... Just think about it, if I sang with him at the final peak singing party, the effect would be so great!"

"Will you sing with him?"

Shen Liang shook his head and said decisively: "Impossible, even if I withdraw from the competition, I will not let this happen!"

Oh, the program recording is over, Shen Liang and Yu Kewei went to the recording studio, the two of them are going to record "Do You Know?"...

In fact, Ivy Yu has sung many OSTs and interludes, including the ending song "Far Away" of "Gu Jian Qi Tan", the interlude "Time Boils Rain" of "Tiny Times", the interlude "Blue Clothes Ballad" of "The Legend of Chusen", the interlude "Su Yan" of "The Glory of Tang Dynasty", and the interlude "Missing" of "Eternal Love"...

The OST and interludes serve the plot, so singers with good singing skills and beautiful voices will be given priority!

Therefore, the OST usually invites Zhang Bichen, Zhou Shen, and Yu Kewei to sing...

Some people say, "Singers only take on OSTs when they don't have any works!"

Nonsense. In today's music market, being able to sing OST is an important reflection of a singer's commercial value. Is it the same concept for someone to spend money to make an album and someone to pay you to sing an OST?

OST is for the general public, what about the album?

As long as the fans like it!

After the song recording was finished, Yu Kewei was very grateful to Shen Liang... and wanted to treat him to a meal.

For the song "Do You Know?", she was given 60 yuan!
This is to help her make money, so it's only right to treat her to a meal.

Shen Liang looked at the time: "No, I have to fly to BJ soon..."

"Weibo Night?"

"Well... there is also the last rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala..."

"Then... I'll treat you to dinner next time~"

"...Well, I'll be leaving first..."

Chen Jiadong was waiting outside. When he saw Shen Liang, he said, "Teacher Hong Tao just warned the Hua Chenyu team not to hype it up..."

"What is he going to do?"

"We have defeated you this time, so we are planning to use us as a publicity stunt..."

Shen Liang was speechless: "Psycho... He changed it so badly, and he still has the nerve to promote it? If I were his team, I should first consider the abuse and criticism from Zhou Jie Lun's fans..."
