Chapter 556 "The New Drunken Concubine"
As soon as Li Qingyi opened his mouth, everyone applauded.
Women's clothing, male voice, but not annoying.
In fact, men who dress up as women have always been more sensitive. If they don't dress up well, they can easily make people feel sick and cause physiological discomfort.
Although Li Qingyi is wearing women's clothing and singing with a male voice, his voice is softer and actually very harmonious.
"Pop songs."
"Chinese style, I'm familiar with this."
"Instrumental accompaniment is different from Peking Opera. The three major elements of Peking Opera are not like this."
Many Peking Opera fans are a little disappointed.
Li Qingyi looks like Peking Opera, but she sings pop songs. Although it has a classical style, it is not Peking Opera.
It's a bit like trying to sell dog meat on sheep's head.
"Hey, it sounds nice, but this appearance is inappropriate."
"Has Nuoyan also learned the trick of making headlines?"
"You can't blame him. Beijing opera is inherently difficult to change."
On the stage, with a gorgeous background, Li Qingyi stood on the high platform and was still singing.
A group of backup dancers were dancing in the audience.
The imperial concubine did not dance, but danced with the dancers, which made everyone feel that she was trying to sell someone else's meat.
"Don't say who is wrong or right because of feelings,
I just want to get drunk with you again in my dream. "
Many people can memorize Bai Juyi's "Song of Everlasting Sorrow" and naturally know the love story between Yang Guifei and Li Longji.
It's just that I don't accept Li Qingyi wearing the imperial concubine's clothes and singing the imperial concubine's monologue in a male voice.
"Hey, you sing with a female voice!"
"That's right, you sang Concubine Yang's monologue in a male voice. It's nondescript."
"This is the biggest failure of the Spring Festival Gala."
In fact, there are a lot of criticisms about Li Yugang's "The Drunken Concubine" on earth.
There has never been a shortage of criticism for ruining the quintessence of the Chinese nation and making the singing sound contrived and disgusting.
Even though he became famous and appeared on the Spring Festival Gala stage, there are still people who don't like him.
If you don't like it, don't like it. At least in terms of the combination of drama and pop songs, Li Yugang has indeed achieved the ultimate.
"The golden bird hairpin jade scratching my head is a gift you gave me.
The song of colorful clothes and feathers sings and dances for you several times,
Jianmenguan is your deep longing for me,
Mawei Poxia is willing to die for true love. "
Until now, Li Qingyi only stood on the stage and sang the song.
He was a little nervous. Li Qingyi was not a rookie, but he inevitably felt nervous.
Li Qingyi, who has been performing Peking Opera since elementary school, has performed on stage countless times. In the Peking Opera circle, he is already a well-known Da Qingyi.
But he was still nervous.
What made him nervous wasn't that he couldn't sing well, or that was just part of it.
Li Qingyi knew very well that he shouldered the mission of reviving Peking Opera.
Master Chen Xingchang is already old and getting older. To put it bluntly, it is a bit difficult for him to even get on stage.
The revival of Peking Opera can no longer be counted on him.
The arrival of the promise made Chen Sect as lively as the New Year.
The brothers and sisters rushed to get in front of the young man one by one, because the master's intention was obvious. He wanted to use pop music to "promote" Peking Opera again.
Who is the promise?
He has won six Golden Melody Awards in a row and is known as the most prestigious talent in the entertainment industry, a once-in-a-century talent.
More importantly, he has also studied Peking Opera. Whether it is the drama in "Wukong" or the dramatic elements in "Rap Mask", this is illustrated.
And the songs he writes are popular.
Li Qingyi didn't know if his brothers and sisters had the idea of setting up another company, but he knew that everyone wanted to be popular.
Li Qingyi thought about it too.
After it becomes popular, he will be able to use the influence of music to feed Peking Opera back.
If you embrace Xu, the youngest and thickest thigh in the entertainment industry, anything is possible.
Master Chen Xingchang is not partial, or the partiality is not obvious.
After Xu Nuo arrived, he chatted with them one by one and finally decided that he, the youngest apprentice, would take on this important task.
In the envious eyes of everyone, Li Qingyi agreed.
Men disguising themselves as women is a common occurrence for him, and there is no psychological barrier at all.
In front of the TV, Chen Xingchang and several disciples watched the Spring Festival Gala.
"Isn't this kind of responsibility too heavy on Qing Yi?" Chen Xingchang said to himself.
Several senior brothers and sisters hesitated to speak.
In fact, their senior brothers and sisters all have a very good relationship.
Because Chen Xingchang is a qualified master, and he does not have the tricks of a certain cross talk master, naturally such things will not happen.
Being able to show up at Master's house on New Year's Eve is proof.
They hope that Li Qingyi can succeed, and they also hope that they can get some credit.
This is not a contradiction, it is human nature.
Chen Xingchang raised his eyes.
"Qing Yi mentioned an idea to me before going."
"What do you think?" The second senior brother couldn't help but ask.
"Qing Yi said that he found that Xu Nuo actually knew a lot about Peking Opera. Whether it was songs, operas or other things, he could always hit the point."
Several senior brothers also expressed their approval.
"If "The Drunken Concubine" can be a big success, Qing Yi wants you to get in touch with Xu Nuo. Whether it's singing or filming, it will be helpful to you."
Chen Xingchang said slowly.
Several people looked at each other with surprise on their faces, "Junior brother is pretty good!"
"Already agreed to Xu Nuo?"
Chen Xingchang nodded and said seriously. "Yeah, if you have a chance to cooperate with him, treat him like you treat me!"
Several people looked at each other, "I'm already two rounds older than him..."
Chen Xingchang knocked on the table: "Those who are successful will come first. From now on, we will call him uncle!"
Several people also agreed.
Yes, now he is the same generation as his apprentice Liu Xinyi, the biggest difference is that he is more than forty years old.
On the stage, Li Qingyi took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. He calmed down easily.
Because what follows is the opera he has been practicing for twenty years.
Some of the audience in the audience applauded, while others were unmoved.
Li Qingyi suddenly started dancing.
Of course, Da Qingyi's basic skills need not be said in detail. His basic skills can kill a large number of stars in an instant.
A rapid flute sound sounded, and Li Qingyi spoke.
"Love and hate are in a moment,
Raise a glass to the moon and feel as much as the sky,
Love and hate are boundless,
I asked you when you fell in love. "
? ? ?
The audience was stunned.
Chen Xingchang looked pleased, "Qing Yi's skills have not fallen behind."
"Junior brother is awesome!"
The audience only felt that this voice change made people feel numb.
This is not a drama, nor is it pinching the throat, but a real Peking Opera singing style.
If in the first half, everyone just thought it sounded good and had no other feelings, and some even felt that they were not worthy of appearing on the Spring Festival Gala stage, then this sudden change in voice is like a 180-degree turn.
Everything in front of it is foreshadowing these few female voices.
Li Qingyi's Peking Opera is so stunning that it gives people goosebumps.
His dance is enchanting, dignified and elegant.
The stage suddenly came alive.
"The chrysanthemum platform reflects the bright moon,
Who knew my love was cold,
Drunk in the king's arms,
Dreaming back to the love of the Tang Dynasty. "
This is the perfect combination of Peking Opera and pop songs.
"Rap Face" is Eastern Peking Opera plus Western rap, while "The Drunken Concubine" is traditional Peking Opera plus classical pop music.
Li Qingyi's voice is very soft, crisper and closer to a female voice than Li Yugang's, so it doesn't sound inconsistent at all.
Coupled with his good looks and gorgeous clothes, he looks like the reincarnation of Concubine Yang.
"Your Majesty, please have another drink~"
Li Qingyi sang another line.
The audience who finally came to their senses were greatly surprised, and the scene burst into huge applause and cheers.
"Damn it! This part is so amazing!"
"I'm convinced."
"Just be awesome and that's it."
"The moment the Peking Opera voice changed, I admit that my heart was moved."
"The DNA is moving. Is this the charm of Peking Opera?"
"Love it, love it."
The older audience's eyes lit up and they applauded without hesitation.
The young audience expressed their feelings in C language.
This is the charm brought by contrast. If the singing method is Peking Opera from the beginning, older opera lovers may be satisfied, but young people may not necessarily be satisfied, and vice versa.
The pop singing at the beginning and the Peking opera singing in the middle were perfectly blended and directly grabbed everyone's attention.
Contrast, contrast, whether it's a man dressing up as a woman or singing, it's all a contrast, the ultimate contrast, making the ratings rise steadily.
Li Qingyi finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the thunderous applause.
"The golden bird hairpin jade scratching my head is a gift you gave me.
The song of colorful clothes and feathers sings and dances for you several times,
Jianmenguan is your deep longing for me,
Mawei Poxia is willing to die for true love. "
On the high platform, Li Qingyi danced gracefully and was extremely stunning.
"Love and hate are in a moment,
Raise a glass to the moon and feel as much love as the sky..."
The second half is exactly the same as the first, and many people can't help but want to hum a few lines.
Chen Xingchang came in casually and even sang better than Li Qingyi.
The senior brothers and sisters applauded.
In front of the TV, many people tried to sing at the top of their voices, and as expected, they all got beaten several times.
"What the hell are you singing? You're crying like a ghost. If you don't know, you'd think I'd beat you up during the Chinese New Year." My parents were disgusted.
"Who can sing better? Hey, what is this person's name?"
"Li Qingyi, Chen Xingchang's young disciple."
The parents gave a thumbs up and said, "Singing is indeed good."
As they spoke, they also started singing.
"Pfft..." The young man secretly laughed.
"What are you laughing at?"
"nothing."
"I saw you smiling!"
"No, no." The young man covered his mouth and laughed, saying that his parents weren't very good at singing either.
Chen Xingchang's home.
On New Year's Eve, it was very lively outside. Suddenly, among the sound of firecrackers, there were a few words "Love and hate are in a moment!"
Listening to the voice is like a child.
Chen Xingchang was startled, "Whose child is that?"
The third senior sister ran out to take a look, came back and shook her head, "I don't know him. He said he heard the singing on TV and it was very interesting, so he learned it."
Chen Xingchang remained silent.
However, several disciples found that the master's eyes were a little wet.
Peking Opera has always been difficult for children to like. This difficult situation seemed to be solved by Li Qingyi all of a sudden.
Is the path to Peking Opera right here?
Chen Xingchang was suddenly very happy.
