Jiang Kui stepped towards the stage step by step.
This moment.
All eyes at the venue and before the live broadcast were on her.
On the Internet.
Countless people are discussing it.
"Jiang Kui is in great danger this time."
“I didn’t expect Su Juan to get the highest score in the competition!”
"In fact, as far as singing is concerned, I prefer songs with stories like "Red Ling". Su Juan's singing is too showy, without any other characteristics, just simple and rough high notes."
“Maybe the judges like the high notes.”
"Popular music is not too demanding. High notes are indeed one of the winning magic weapons of pop music, and it is also one of the tricks that has been tried and tested in various competitions."
"Anyway, I found it very enjoyable and satisfying to listen to."
"It's really enjoyable, the high notes are so satisfying!"
"Although the process was tortuous, it seems that Zhongzhou still had the last laugh in the end. I can only say that it is worthy of being Zhongzhou. They have already won six gold medals, while other continents don't even have a single gold medal."
…
Zhongzhou.
The audience was excited!
“It’s time to pop the champagne and celebrate!”
"Zhao Wan and Ding Ning, Sister Juan has avenged you two!"
"At critical moments, we still have to look to Sister Juan!"
“Although I am very happy to win, Qin Zhou, this Jiang Kui, has already won my respect.”
"That's right, Jiang Kui has won an honorable defeat."
"Not only Jiang Kui, Zhao Ying and Xia Fan are also very strong opponents. Even in our Zhongzhou, they should have a place!"
“No wonder it was dubbed the Fish Dynasty.”
"Although the tone is still very arrogant, a few people from other continents can reach this level, which can indeed be regarded as a dynasty. Of course, it can only be called a dynasty outside, and it is still a little short of it in our Central Continent."
The audience’s confidence is growing!
Su Juan's score is currently the highest score!
There is only one way for Jiang Kui to win, and that is to break the current record!
The male commentator laughed and said, "Is the record so easy to break?"
The female commentator nodded and said, "This game has reminded us that these foreigners are still quite capable."
…
Jiang Kui, who has something of her own, stands in the center of the stage.
The band is ready too.
A competition of the level of Blue Music Club will certainly not be short of live bands, and they are all top bands from various continents.
However, because the protagonist is a singer, there are very few shots of the band.
Few people noticed that there was a magical musical instrument in this band.
Suona
Others may have overlooked it, but Su Juan noticed this instrument.
She suspected that she had seen it wrong and didn't understand why there was such an underworld instrument as suona in this band!
What kind of songs are suitable for suona
Could it be that this suona player is a contestant from the suona competition team and walked into the wrong set
This stuff almost never happens in bands.
Because the suona stole the show!
The title of musical instrument hooligan is no joke!
When the suona sounds, other instruments will be suppressed and unable to raise their heads!
Unlike piano and violin, which can easily cooperate with each other to form a good mixing effect, only suona doesn't listen to you.
All right.
Without dwelling on this point too much, Su Juan looked up and stared at Jiang Kui with a strange look, trying to see panic on the other's face.
The result disappointed her.
Jiang Kui didn't seem to be affected by him.
As expected, he is an opponent who can make me fight to my death. This kind of composure is not easy to come by.
In fact, Su Juan knew that she was not as good as Jiang Kui in terms of overall strength, but her high notes were so outstanding that they could be regarded as her trump card.
This trick is very useful.
It just so happened that the judges seemed to like the high notes, which was why she got such a high score. Under such circumstances, Su Juan didn't believe that Jiang Kui could surpass her and make a comeback.
…
Jiang Kui closed her eyes.
Three seconds later.
Jiang Kui opened her eyes and nodded to the staff.
The first musical instrument sounded, and it was the suona that had just caught Su Juan's attention!
The audience was shocked:
"Suona?"
"Why is there this musical instrument?"
"It's so tacky to put it in a pop song!"
“I think the suona is one of the most vulgar instruments!”
“I think it sounds pretty good.”
"The melody is okay, but it would definitely sound better if it were replaced with a piano or something."
"According to the customs of many places on Blue Star, this thing is only used in rural areas for weddings or deaths."
In fact, it’s not just on Blue Star.
Even in China, the suona was once considered a very rustic instrument.
It symbolizes vulgarity.
In short, it's not very high quality.
Those who play the suona are either folk enthusiasts or people who are paid to perform at weddings or funerals.
And in the sound of suona.
A green sorghum field suddenly appeared on the big screen on the stage, in a realistic animation style.
The song information appears before the audience.
Song title: Jiu Er
Lyricist: Envy Fish
Composer: Envy Fish
Singer: Jiang Kui
As the sorghum field appeared, the rural atmosphere came out, and the suona made the audience even more confused.
Is this pop music
The commentators in the major live broadcast rooms frowned almost subconsciously: "What's wrong with this song?"
…
What's up with this song
The same doubts also appeared in Qin Zhou's live broadcast room.
If this song was not written by Xianyu, I am afraid that like other songs, the screen would be full of confusion about the appearance of suona.
In fact, some people have already raised question marks.
Lin Yuan listened to the familiar and kind suona sound, and said in a sighing voice: "Let me tell you a story."
Xiangxiang and Pudding were stunned.
Tell a story
Lin Yuan has already started his story: "Once upon a time there was a girl named Jiuer..."
Because of the different historical backgrounds, it is difficult for Lin Yuan to move certain literary works produced in the Celestial Empire to Blue Star.
But this does not mean that Lin Yuan has no solution.
When the song "Jiuer" came out, Lin Yuan planned to tell the story written by Mo Yan in a brief way, just interspersed with Jiang Kui's singing.
…
On stage.
The sound of suona continues as a prelude.
There seemed to be wind blowing across the screen.
The green sorghum that had not yet borne fruit bent down.
Jiang Kui's voice sounded, soft and clear, yet strangely heavy:
"The fields around me..."
"The jujube flowers beside me are fragrant..."
"When the sorghum is ripe, the sky is full of red..."
"Jiuer, I will send you to a faraway place..."
Everyone in China knows that this song is related to Mo Yan's novel Red Sorghum, but the lyrics do not describe the strong emotions in the book, nor do they mention the plots of related film and television dramas. It even has a bit of the singer's secondary creation, so it is entirely up to the singer to use his singing to express the artistic conception of the song.
This is why Lin Yuan dared to bring out this song.
Of course, there are some concerns. For example, people in this world have not read Mo Yan's novels and do not know enough about the background of the songs. This is a regret that Lin Yuanjian cannot avoid. However, in the end, Lin Yuan decided to let music express it. Because although this world does not have Master Mo's "Red Sorghum", there are also some very classic local literature that express similar emotions. These are stories that would have happened in that era in the past and can allow the audience to achieve a certain emotional connection. Moreover, among the many netizens who have been chasing this song in the previous life, there are also many people who have not read the original work, or even its related film and television, but they were still shocked after listening to this song. This is also the meaning of the existence of music!
Han Hong!
Hu Shasha!
Sa Dingding!
Wu Bixia!
And there is Tan Jing!
All major versions!
Each has its merits!
This is definitely a treasure song that countless national team players are competing to cover. Most singers don't even dare to touch it. There are too many excellent songs by national team players before them. It would be a humiliation to sing it without certain ability!
…
Such a story also exists in Jiang Kui's mind.
This story was told to her by her representative after she got the song.
It is said that this girl named Jiuer dares to love and hate. Although she is a girl, she understands the righteousness of her family and country. She has experienced many ups and downs, but she met a special man at the moment of despair in her life...
Recalling this story.
Something inexplicable was surging in Jiang Kui's heart.
In the entire Blue Music Society, perhaps there are few singers who can understand the lives of farmers.
Jiang Kui understands.
She is a girl who came out of the mountains.
I once carried my younger brother on my back and lived a life at the bottom of society.
At this moment, the lyrics are exactly the same as the first time, but the sound is different from the first time.
It's not just that the pitch is slightly higher the second time it's sung.
More importantly, feelings have also changed.
The fourth chord octave seems to symbolize Jiuer's fate.
Ups and downs!
And when the second paragraph ended, Jiang Kui suddenly uttered a chant.
It's as if hope and despair are entangled in the coexistence of the chant, making the simple melody more magnificent, and the ups and downs of fate more intense!
This moment.
The commentators in all the major live broadcast rooms were suddenly overwhelmed by an indescribable emotion, and their hearts actually felt a little sour.
It turns out to be a story about a certain generation of our ancestors.
Looking at the green sorghum field on the big stage screen, the fruit that symbolizes hope seems to be growing in this sorghum field.
“Ah~”
“Ah~”
This section of chanting follows almost the same route as Tan Jing's version, getting higher and stronger, and the abundant breath finally bursts out at the end!
"The fields around me..."
This is the third time, and the high note has been formed.
Especially when they sang "The sorghum is ripe and the sky is full of red", some audience members were shocked for the first time!
This song is not simple!
…
Upgrade the key!
The seven judges appreciated the song from a professional perspective, with their eyes shining at the same time. The lyrics were the same, but the emotions were different, and in an increasing pattern!
Su Juan sings high notes, and Jiang Kui also sings high notes!
It’s really because Jiang Kui’s emotions progress so naturally, and the high notes don’t seem abrupt at all.
The judges only realized at this moment that they had all been deceived by the previous performance. This was actually a high-pitched song!
In the audience.
Some audience members subconsciously leaned forward slightly.
That was the emotion of being immersed in the singing, and the eagerness to hear the sequel.
Yes.
They have been attracted by Jiang Kui's singing.
The song is good, but the singing is the real soul.
…
The audience was not kept waiting.
Jiang Kui's hand holding the microphone suddenly exerted force, and in the sudden close-up shot, the joints of the hands were slightly whitish:
"When the sorghum is ripe and the sky is full of red, Jiuer, I will send you to a faraway place!"
The emotions suddenly became heated!
The high and long sound of the first transformation seemed to open a curtain!
In the first two and a half rounds of singing, the emotional build-up reached an extreme, and the word "Fang" was stretched to the limit, as if the endless breath had no end at all!
Boom!
A complete outbreak!
And just when people thought this was the limit, a kingly instrumental sound descended from heaven, as if it sounded from the depths of the soul, achieving a perfect combination with the human voice, entangled with each other and moving upward!
Suona!
It’s suona!!
The suona that goes straight to the top of my head!!
Like a high concentration of sorghum liquor!!
The male commentator in Yanzhou's live broadcast room actually roared, clapping his hands vigorously with anger and satisfaction!
The scene was exactly the same!
All the audience members were moved, and the seven judges instantly straightened up, with goose bumps all over their bodies, and only one thought in their minds:
How can suona be so shocking!
The audiences in the major live broadcast rooms, who had previously been extremely disdainful of the suona, thinking it was too rustic and tacky, were now stunned, trembling all over at the suona's domineering coverage!
"Art!"
“Suona is art!”
"God-like assistance!"
"Oh My God!"
“It’s numb!!!”
"What the hell is this!"
“Sent away!”
"I was sent away directly by the suona!"
"God!"
All major live broadcast rooms exploded almost at the same time!
The charm of the suona instrument is fully revealed at this moment, and the godly auxiliary effect makes Jiang Kui's singing charm bloom to the fullest!
Drunk!
Everyone is drunk!
Su Juan, who was so confident before, was completely distracted at this moment. I don’t know if she was stimulated by the suona or scared by the song!
This game is over!
The suona is simply a stroke of genius!
Su Juan's confidence was greatly shaken.
Just when Su Juan's confidence was shaken, Jiang Kui's fourth singing began!
He didn't even wait for the suona to finish!
It actually appeared in the suona!
It seems to be competing with this soul-stirring suona!
"The sorghum is ripe and the sky is full of red!!!"
The sound of the suona was so suppressed by Jiang Kui's voice that it lost its temper!
Those who don’t know might think that the suona has stopped, but the lingering sound of the suona can be heard everywhere between the lines!
Crash!
On the big screen on the stage, the wind is blowing again!
It’s as if time flows as the four seasons rotate, and the transition from green to yellow is like a song!
The green sorghum field has turned red, as if it were stained with blood!
Sorghum!
It’s done!
Jiang Kui seemed to be walking on a field of ripe sorghum, singing in the wind, to the audience, to the judges, to Su Juan:
"Jiuer, I will send you to a faraway place..."
Su Juan's confidence collapsed and her heart was shocked!
She opened her mouth wide, unable to close it, which coincided with the ferocious expressions of the seven judges standing beside her!
Listen.
Where is the sentence “Jiuer, I will send you to a faraway place”
This guy is clearly "Jiang Kui". I'll send you far away!
The extreme high notes sound like shouting, roaring, and wailing, but with an unprecedented surge!
"The sorghum is ripe and the sky is full of red!!!"
When the highest note of the whole song came, the suona seemed to be silenced!
The emotions and momentum condensed in the entire song burst out in this sentence, striking the soul directly!
Su Juan's mentality exploded!
The high notes that she was so proud of were completely crushed by this sentence, without mercy!
…
The mountains and fields of my hometown are filled with the fragrance of jujube flowers.
Even those of us at the bottom of society have a yearning for a better life.
Jiang Kui recalled the story the representative told her...
What great sorghum!
What a great crop!
What a strong drink!
What a hot woman!
If there were no invaders!
If only there weren't those things that are worse than beasts!
Jiang Kui's eyes turned red, and she stumbled as she was deeply moved. Her voice did not tremble, and her breath was not disordered:
"Jiuer, I will send you to a faraway place..."
Like a whisper, the lingering sound floated above the stage.
A ball of fire suddenly lit up in the sorghum field on the stage screen, as if it appeared at the end of the horizon.
At this moment, many viewers may still not understand the story of Red Sorghum, but they are completely dominated and conquered by this emotion...
And during Jiang Kui's singing.
In Qin Zhou’s live broadcast room.
Lin Yuan's story has roughly come to an end:
"Jiu'er died on this land, taking with her the deepest love for this land, and perishing together with her cold-blooded enemies. Her choice was the same as Chi Ling's, blooming and withering in the firelight as bright as sorghum..."
This moment.
Qin Zhou’s live broadcast room was quiet.
It wasn't until three seconds later that it suddenly boiled over!
Pudding was listening to Xianyu's story very seriously. He was sighing at the moment:
"Jiang Kui's first rendition was like a soft whisper, like a little girl who is just beginning to fall in love and can't bear to part with her lover;
The second time was like a young woman bidding farewell to her beloved, less shy and more strong;
Then there is a chanting scene, which represents the growth of life.
The third time, it is obvious that she is a fully mature woman, facing the misfortunes of life with courage and facing the expedition of her lover with strength;
The fourth time completely sublimates the third time, it is grand and tragic, and what comes to mind is a glorious image of a woman sacrificing herself in the face of the enemy;
The last line of the song is sung in a low voice, expressing the ordinary people's emotions of nostalgia for their hometown, missing their loved ones, and being unable to part with them.
Listening to the whole song once is like reading a long novel.
The growth from girlhood to maturity, the confrontation between beauty and suffering, the sublimation from ignorance to rationality, the conflict between sacrifice and reluctance.
I don’t know if my understanding is correct?”
Lin Yuan said: "There can be a thousand Jiuer for a thousand listeners, just whatever you think is right."
“This is art.”
Xiangxiang opened her mouth with tears in her eyes. I don’t know if she was moved by this short story or by the song.
…
On the Internet.
Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, and Wei!
There were seven live broadcast rooms, and the number of comments was too many to count. The excitement was even more intense than in Qin Zhou’s live broadcast room!
The audience here did not hear the story told by Xianyu. Their focus was all on Jiang Kui's singing!
"It's so annoying!"
“It’s so shocking!”
"My whole body is trembling!"
"My palms are sweaty after listening to this song!"
"What a high note!"
“The suona has been suppressed!”
"The scariest thing is, this song only has four lines of lyrics!"
"With just four lines of lyrics, they crushed Su Juan. What the hell does that mean!"
"Don't say anything, I want to learn suona!"
"I was wrong, Suonayyds!"
"Suona: Jiang Kui, please at least give me some face!"
"There's a story hidden in this song, and there's a lot to be said in the song. I suddenly want to know what the song is about."
"I don't know what they are talking about, but I am listening so enthusiastically. Why is that?"
“Because of resonance.”
“Emotions can resonate with each other, and music is a bridge of communication.”
"In my heart, Jiang Kui has already won!"
"Jiu'er, I'm sending you far away. This means I'm sending everyone far away."
Before, almost no audience was optimistic about Jiang Kui, because Su Juan's score was too high. The same score could even sweep all previous bel canto competitions!
However.
But now the situation has reversed.
Especially when the camera turned to Su Juan, who looked pale, lowered her head and remained silent, everyone understood who would win or lose.
All parties involved were convinced.
…
Zhongzhou.
The male commentator had obviously received professional training and could talk fluently to the audience for hours, but at this moment his voice was stammering:
“This… this… this song… is very… excellent…”
"Even if I lose..."
"Defeated... but still honorable..."
"Sister Juan is still... the big devil... but... Jiang Kui... is more scary..."
"We have six gold medals."
The female commentator was much more promising than the male commentator, and she quickly found a point to comfort the audience: "Even if we lose this round, our advantage in the gold medal list is still overwhelming. Of course, we must also have the courage to admit that Qinzhou has indeed produced an incredible singing queen."
audience:
"The male commentator was sent away..."
"I was sent away too!"
“No wonder there’s a suona!”
"This underworld instrument is so perverted!"
“Just send all the audience away!”
"This is the great devil from Qinzhou!"
"The scariest thing is actually the envious fish!"
"Being able to write this song fully demonstrates the power of the Great Devil!"
"I lost..."
"It's a sure loss!"
"Who is the one who won the victory despite his defeat?"
"This fish dynasty..."
The Zhongzhou audience was deeply impressed by Yu Dynasty.
…
In fact, there is no suspense about what happens next.
Jiang Kui went crazy and killed!
As soon as the suona comes out, a group of people are sent away!
Amid the cheers of the Qinzhou audience, Jiang Kui won the gold medal!
Su Juan stood beside Jiang Kui holding the silver medal, her face pale.
On the other side of Jiang Kui was Zhao Yingchrome holding the bronze medal.
Although he won a bronze medal, Zhao Yingge was obviously in a good mood and even made a scissors hand gesture when taking a photo.
Because the gold medal also belongs to the Fish Dynasty!
Yu Dynasty represented Qinzhou and won both the gold and bronze medals!
That’s not all.
Jiang Kui's gold medal also set a new record for the highest score...
96.1 points!
This score is higher than Su Juan's, but not as high as expected.
Why
Because the song "Jiuer" is not a perfect match in the pop group.
This song actually combines popular singing style with folk song creation, which is a very imaginative approach.
Taking this into consideration, the judges lowered the score slightly.
No matter how innovative the gameplay is, the pop group still has to compete with more popular songs.
But in front of the gold medal, these are all minor details.
Blue Music Club Gold Medal Chart.
Qinzhou rose to second place and fought his way out of Zhongzhou's gold medal list for contracting!
…
All continents.
The core coaching staff had different expressions.
Qinzhou is undoubtedly the happiest here!
"These judges are pretty decent. I would give the same score if I were in their shoes."
"Jiang Kui is indeed a killer!"
"What do you think will happen if Jiang Kui and Shu Yu compete again?"
“It’s hard to say.”
"It depends on which side Xianyu stands on."
"Hahahahaha, you make it sound like we in Qinzhou are the only ones who envy you."
"But we have to admit that our Qinzhou's first gold medal was won by Xianyu and his fish king, Jiang Kui."
"Finally, we broke the embarrassment of having no gold medals."
Sudden.
Lu Sheng said: "This is just the beginning."
Zheng Jing smiled and said, "Zhao Ying's song is pretty good, too."
Yang Zhongming raised his eyebrows:
"It's windy."
It seems to be a double entendre.
…
Qizhou core coaching team.
“It’s not good.”
"We haven't got our first gold medal yet."
“Although Zhongzhou is strong, it is mainly strong in projects such as beautiful voice. We will have a chance to show our skills in the future.”
…
Chuzhou coaching team.
“It’s worthy of being the hometown of music.”
"Jiang Kui's level is completely different from what we found in our research!"
"It's not just Jiang Kui, Xia Fan and Zhao Ying are not simple either."
…
Yanzhou coaching team.
"Happiness belongs to others, when will it be our turn?"
“Soon.”
"With 108 projects, no one can dominate the world."
…
Hanzhou coaching team.
Zhao Zhou coaching team.
Wei Zhou coaching team.
The core coaching teams in each continent are whispering to each other.
The Zhongzhou coaching staff did not whisper to each other, and the coaches all looked gloomy.
"It's a pity to lose this gold medal."
“We almost won.”
"yes."
“The score gap is actually not that big.”
Sudden.
Abigail said coldly: "Don't you understand? This is the difference that made them win!"
Even if it is just 0.1 point, the difference in strength behind it is huge.
If it weren't for the judges' preference for high notes, Su Juan would not be a match for Jiang Kui!
Abigail could see this, and so could everyone else. Their sighing at this moment was nothing but self-deception.
The other coaches in Zhongzhou fell silent.
Especially the third head coach of Zhongzhou who had provoked Xianyu before, now clenched his fists and looked ashamed and angry.
Why
Because the song that Su Juan sang in the finals was written by him.
Su Juan's loss to Jiang Kui also meant that he lost to Qin Zhou's Xian Yu.
…
Zhongzhou.
Matsushima Ame and Ito Makoto sat together and watched the entire game.
"I knew it."
When Jiang Kui put on the gold medal, Song Daoyu sighed: "When he takes action, it still makes people feel powerless."
"snort."
Ito Makoto said calmly: "This is Xianyu's strength, you know it."
Song Daoyu gritted his teeth and said, "Looking at the performance of Ge Jiangkui, maybe Qin Zhou could really become a threat to us from behind. After all, none of us knows how many tricks Xianyu has up his sleeve."
“It’s not just about envy.”
Ito Makoto's eyes flickered: "Yang Zhongming hasn't made a move yet. Those who underestimate him will die without knowing how they died."
Songdao Yu was silent.
Ito Makoto sighed, "It's not that there is no good news. The flute group has adopted my work and will use it in the finals."
"oh?"
Hearing this, Songdao Yu finally smiled: "It just so happens that my work has also been accepted by the Erhu group and will also be put into the finals."
"We have limited abilities."
Ito Makoto said helplessly: "I can only help Zhongzhou guarantee these two gold medals."
…
After receiving the medals, Jiang Kui, Zhao Ying and Xia Fan left together.
Just walked out of the arena.
Countless reporters rushed up!
The dark crowd was almost crazy!
"The performances of the three of you were very wonderful. On behalf of Qinzhou TV Station, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to the three of you!"
"Teacher Jiang Kui's "Jiu Er" is so beautiful!"
"Teacher Zhao Yingge, what do you think of your opponent?"
"Teacher Xia Fan, regarding the people online saying that you are the weakest female singer in the Fish Dynasty, what do you want to say in response? After all, we all saw your performance today, it was really wonderful!"
"Teacher Jiang Kui..."
The three of them were shocked by the reporter's madness!
Even with Jiang Kui's status as a singing queen, she had never been surrounded by so many reporters!
I'm so nervous!
These reporters come from all continents, even from Central Asia!
However, the most excited group of reporters were all from Qinzhou!
Because the three of them are the heroes of Qinzhou, even if Xia Fan didn't get a medal, she sang with style and defeated the two queens of Zhongzhou singing!
no way.
The three of them took turns to accept the interview.
When it came to the interview with Zhao Yingge, the girl suddenly snorted angrily: "Many people have questioned before, saying that the inclusion of all members of the Yu Dynasty in the Qinzhou roster was a backdoor for us. Now I want to say, you can question us, but don't slander our representatives!"
"Me too."
"Me too."
Xia Fan next to him added.
Jiang Kui added another sentence.
Reporters at the scene laughed.
The three sisters of Yu Dynasty are ruthless on the court, but they are very cute in private.
in.
Several Qinzhou reporters had very strange expressions.
Those who question Xianyu may not know what Xianyu did in the live broadcast room.
Who dares to question him now? All the people in the live broadcast room were kneeling down to listen to him commentating on the game!
