On stage.
Neither the changing expressions of the judges nor the exclamations of the audience affected Lin Yuan's singing.
Lin Yuan neither looked nor listened.
He had in-ear monitors plugged into his ears and was completely immersed in the melody. His singing was even better than during rehearsal, and he gradually forgot even the slight discomfort caused by being locked on by the camera.
The light came on softly.
The background of the big screen on the stage is a landscape painting that looks like a fairyland.
There are many high peaks.
The smoke is thick.
The river is gurgling.
Amidst the various reactions from the audience, Lin Yuan held the microphone steadily and perfectly hit the beats in time with the music.
As the natural and ethereal female voice sounded again, the audience exclaimed again. Even though the voice switch in the main song part had already allowed the audience to see Lanling King's control over the two voices.
Here is the first high-mid voice section of the chorus:
"The cool night turns my thoughts of you into a river, and turns into spring mud to protect me."
However, in the next sentence, Lin Yuan effortlessly switched back to his typical tuba baritone voice, deep and powerful with a magnetic feel:
"The fleeting years brush against the lover's sleeves, and the petals of fragrance flow into the water."
Not just the verse part!
The climax is also a duet of male and female voices!
The audience in the audience was already a little dumbfounded!
…
Waiting area.
Tongtong was full of worry and self-blame, thinking that the order of performance he drew might affect Lanling King's singing.
The result is the next moment!
When Lanling King's voice seamlessly switched between male and female voices for the first time, her mind was stunned!
King of singers
Diva
She has completely forgotten it!
She could only open her mouth slightly, stare at her eyes wide, and stand there stupidly, as if she had been struck by a sudden lightning.
at the same time.
Singer's lounge.
White Swan stared at the TV on the wall. Even if her voice was processed by a machine, it couldn't hide the surprise underneath:
“Absolutely.”
Next door to next door.
Inside the robot lounge.
The robot, who seemed to have a relatively lively personality, had stood up. One could almost imagine how exaggerated his expression was under the mask: "I can't tell the gender of this person at all. He (she) can complete both the male and female duet parts by himself!"
The same is true for several other singer lounges.
"Who is this?"
“Gifted!”
"I've been in the music industry for so many years, and I've never heard such a natural transition between male and female voices. The male part is definitely a male voice, and the female part is definitely a female voice!"
How is that possible
…
Backstage director's room.
Director Tong Shuwen was also stunned!
Others didn't know who Lanling Wang was, but he knew the truth, so he felt the shock most directly.
This is the envy of fish!
Isn't he a composer
Why is his singing ability at the level of a professional singer, and he can sing both male and female parts at the same time!
This is too perverted!
The first discovery only surprised Tong Shuwen, who could only say that Xianyu was truly an all-rounder; but the second discovery shocked Tong Shuwen, as it was no longer something that could be covered by talent!
The first unveiling
If Lanling King is revealed in the first episode, there will be no need for anyone to question it.
Even director Tong Shuwen should be suspicious of the conspiracy behind “King of Masked Singer”!
…
Everyone was shocked.
Lin Yuan's singing has come to an end, and his voice is getting higher and higher, both the male and female parts:
"When will spring come again after ten miles of coolness? I see a beautiful figure under the tree again;
The fallen flowers have feelings but the flowing water is ruthless. Don’t let the grudges, love and hate destroy the purity of the flowers. "
The lights no longer flicker.
Gathering at Lin Yuan's feet.
Dusk is falling on the big screen.
In the close-up shot, beneath the gorgeous and cruel demon mask, the voice is gentle and affectionate:
"I can't bear the world..."
In the tearful ending, the audience actually heard the fusion of two voices in a trance.
No one could even tell whether the last line of the lyrics was sung by a male or female voice.
The scene was silent.
The production crew used countless camera lenses, but every face captured in the lens was filled with shock.
Including four judges.
It was not until Lanling King bowed to the band and the audience in the last few seconds of the music that many people finally came to their senses!
Crash!
The scene exploded directly!
This is something that the robot couldn't do, and even the White Swan, whose identity was almost certain to be the queen of singing, couldn't do it—
"Oh My God!"
“It’s so scary!”
"Who on earth is this Lanling King?"
"When he switched to a male voice for the first time, I thought I had heard it wrong and even suspected there was something wrong with my ears!"
“I’m still doubting my ears now!”
"Besides Lanling King, is there another person hiding on the stage?"
"If it's a male singer, how come he can sing female voices so well; if it's a female singer, how come his male voice is so flavorful?"
“Oh my god!”
"Other singers sing solo! This Lanling King directly performs a mixed doubles performance of men and women!"
…
Jury.
A few celebrity judges even forgot their duty to create an atmosphere, but of course there is no need for them to do so now.
From the first time Lanling King changed his voice, the show effect was at its maximum!
"Huh..."
Even An Hong, who was also the host, took a deep breath and adjusted his emotions before going on stage.
"Thank you Mr. Lanling Wang for your singing!"
His voice was filled with undisguised curiosity:
"I think everyone may need some time to calm down. Let me ask a question that everyone is most concerned about. What is the gender of Mr. Lanling Wang?"
"you guess."
Lin Yuan answered in a male voice, but because of the effects and the performance just now, no one dared to be sure of Lanling King's true gender.
An Hong smiled helplessly:
"It seems we need to find four professional judges to give us some pointers, Teacher Mao Xuewang!"
"… "
Mao Xuewang said nothing.
An Hong couldn't help but yell again: "Teacher Mao Xuewang?"
"Feel sorry… "
Mao Xuewang finally woke up from his dream: "I was thinking about your question just now, whether Lanling King is a man or a woman, and the result is, I don't know either."
"It's rare for a singer to sing both male and female voices, but it's not that uncommon."
The judge Liu Xu spoke.
When the audience heard this, their eyes widened.
You are too pretentious. Isn't this weird
Do you really think we are ignorant
However, Liu Xu's second sentence made the audience realize that Liu Xu was actually a friendly force:
"Many male singers can use techniques to sing like female voices, but in fact, that's just a falsetto. The same is true for female singers. But the two types of singers you and I are talking about are different. Whether you sing as a male or female voice, it's so natural. So natural that I can't hear any traces of technique. I can only say that both of your voices are so advanced. So advanced that I can completely accept the imperfections of your singing skills and even want to continue listening..."
Yes.
Many male singers in the music industry can sing in a female voice, but for most of these male singers, their natural masculine voice tends to be more feminine.
The same goes for female singers.
But Lanling Prince is different. He has an extremely pure male voice, so pure that no one can imagine that this voice can produce a female voice!
He also has a pure female voice!
The female voice was so pure that when he first opened his mouth, everyone subconsciously thought that he must be a female singer!
Contrast!
The ultimate contrast!
Liu Xu smiled and turned around: "So I can't determine Lanling King's gender either. This difficult question may have to be thrown to Teacher Wulong."
"Don't ask me."
Wu Long shook his head repeatedly: "I am just like you. I can't guess which of the male and female voices just now is his real voice. Is he using his real voice?"
"Um."
Lin Yuan said.
Some audience members started to communicate.
Why do I feel that this Lanling King is a bit aloof and doesn't seem very enthusiastic towards the judges
Unlike the first two.
Even someone as proud as the White Swan was very humble towards the four most powerful judges in the industry.
"You used your true voice, which means one of the two voices was real. Two voices is too fierce. Other singers are singing solo, but you are equivalent to two people on the scene, a mixed doubles of men and women, directly two against one!"
The audience laughed!
you do not say!
Directly two against one!
"Let's not discuss this question for now, unless you can confirm it yourself. I will tentatively judge you as a boy based on Lanling King's image." Wu Long said: "In fact, what shocked me the most was not that you have two voices, but the last line of the song..."
Liu Xu and Mao Xuewang nodded at the same time, as if they both knew what Wu Long wanted to say.
"The last sentence should be a duet of men and women, but you are alone, so you can only use male or female voices. I have been thinking about how you would handle it if you had a chorus design, but you showed us a mix of men and women, as if there were two voices blending together. You are probably the only one on the entire Blue Star who can achieve this level!" Wu Long said seriously.
The audience looked sideways.
This is such a high evaluation!
Prince Lanling still didn't say much.
An Hong was happy: "It can be seen that our teacher Lanling Wang is a singer who doesn't like to talk. Teacher Yang Zhongming..."
An Hong looked at Yang Zhongming.
Everyone looked at Yang Zhongming.
Faced with such a special singer, everyone wants to know what Qu's father Yang Zhongming would say about him.
But Yang Zhongming stared at Lin Yuan and said word by word:
"You have two voices."
When Lin Yuan heard this, the expression under the mask changed slightly.
However, because of the mask, no one could see Lin Yuan's expression.
After saying this, Yang Zhongming shook his head: "But this is impossible."
Everyone laughed.
Yang Zhongming also laughed: "Are you having fun?"
This was the first time that Yang Zhongming showed such an easy-going smile.
Before this, Yang Zhongming always gave people an indescribable majesty. Even though he would smile, there was just an indescribable feeling.
It’s like Chen Daoming on Earth, who is born with an aura that cannot be suppressed.
"happy."
There was also a hint of smile in Lin Yuan's voice.
He knew that Yang Zhongming might have guessed something, but it was probably just a guess.
really.
Yang Zhongming's next words were: "You look a lot like someone I know."
The audience was surprised.
Who is Yang Zhongming referring to
The judges also looked at Yang Zhongming: "Who is it?"
Yang Zhongming shook his head: "You can't tell it. If I guess it right, it won't be fun to tell it."
Everyone was suddenly helpless, and their hearts felt itchy like a cat's paw.
Yang Zhongming is Qu's father, and he knows so many singers. With this clue, where should we start guessing
"Tell me about the song. It's a new song. What's its name?"
"Liangliang, the coolness of herbal tea."
“Who wrote the song?”
Yang Zhongming stared at Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan originally wanted to follow the original plan and attribute the creation of the song to Lanling King.
But looking at the familiar Yang Zhongming in front of him, for some reason, he suddenly changed his mind:
"Envy the fish."
The whole audience was shocked instantly!
The audience area, which had already become quiet, became lively again because everyone was so familiar with the name "Xianyu"!
“I’ll go!”
"The song of Envy Fish?"
"It turns out to be Mr. Xianyu's new song. No wonder it sounds so good. I didn't expect Mr. Xianyu to help Lanling King!"
"Could he be Sun Yaohuo?"
"Why don't you say it's Jiang Kui?"
"It could also be Chen Zhiyu."
"It's also possible that the singing king has a blue face!"
"The problem is that Lanling Wang sang the song written by Xianyu in the first show. Isn't this a bit of a waste?"
"… "
There was some agitation at the scene.
And in the singer's lounge.
White Swan was also stunned: "It turned out to be Teacher Xianyu's song... But I can understand it. Only Lanling King can sing this kind of male and female voice contrast effect."
“Ahh, it’s sour, sour, sour!”
The robot was as funny as ever, and said in an exaggerated manner: "Teacher Xianyu, why don't you help me? Teacher Xianyu, look at me!"
"envious!"
"envy!"
"I hate it!"
The other singers were a bit sour and used jokes to express their feelings.
Yang Zhongming, who was on the judging panel, raised his eyebrows and said, "Xianyu has always been very accurate in grasping the melodies of pop songs. The composition of this song does look like his work, but his lyrics this time are too perfunctory."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Wulong was amused: "I suspect Xianyu wrote this song in a hurry, so the lyrics were just messed up."
Liu Xu laughed and said, "Teacher Xianyu also has his moments of laziness."
Mao Xuewang nodded: "Teacher Xianyu's ability to write lyrics is top-notch in Blue Star."
Lin Yuan: “…”
Do you have any misunderstanding about me
Well, I can only say that Xianyu’s ability to write lyrics has been deeply rooted in people’s hearts.
The benefits are:
Even if the lyrics of a song by Xianyu are poorly written, people will only think that it is because Xianyu did not write it seriously, and will not think that it is because of Xianyu's limited ability.
The truth is…
Lin Yuan also knew that the lyrics of "Liangliang" were a bit uninteresting, but the melody was excellent, which was excellent relative to pop songs.
So he changed a few words and phrases at the end of his lyrics.
On a stage like this where public voting is the main factor, singing pop songs is more advantageous!
Because it is enough to achieve the purpose of catching the ears in a short time!
So even though the lyrics were bad, he still chose this song.
Most importantly, the song's duet with a man and a woman makes it easier for him to bring out his vocal strengths.
Yang Zhongming nodded:
"The advantages that the new song brings to you are obvious. Your two-channel voice talent is also unique. It's just that your singing skills are not perfect. However, the first two advantages are enough to make up for it. However, as the competition progresses, some problems will eventually have to be faced..."
"Um."
Lin Yuan felt that this evaluation was very pertinent and that his singing skills indeed needed more practice.
The judges' speeches are over.
Next is the interactive session with the jury.
But backstage.
The fourth singer who was about to go on stage to sing, dressed as a magician, got panicked.
First place, robot, great performance!
Second place, White Swan, at the level of a queen of song!
The third one, Prince Lanling, amazed the audience!
One wave is higher than the other...
How do I handle this situation...
Cool!
