426: Training (1)
Planning a variety show is not easy, and planning a successful variety show is even more difficult.
Zhou Lingwei, Chu Pianpian and the staff of Weige Culture paid close attention to every detail they could about the stories in each issue, the speed and intonation of speeches, and even the background, special effects, and soundtrack of the performance stage.
When it comes to the official recording, Jiang Ge will make adjustments based on the on-site conditions.
This has only one purpose, to give the audience a better viewing experience.
"Farewell" is a sad topic.
There are farewells to relatives and friends...
There is a farewell to a lover...
There is a farewell to the past...
…
There are many choices for the closing song.
"Farewell" is like "Outside the pavilion, beside the ancient road, the green grass stretches to the sky", and "Goodbye" is like "I'm afraid I won't have the chance to say goodbye to you, because maybe I will never see you again", Another example is "Blessings" in "Although hurt, separation, and farewell are in front of you, saying goodbye will not be too far away. If you are destined to be destined, you can look forward to tomorrow."
However, Django had other choices.
He thought that by taking advantage of the opportunity to collaborate with Zhang Liming again, he could recommend more Cantonese songs, so he chose "Can't Say Goodbye" by Alan Tam.
An old song is adapted from the Japanese song "爱のかたち" sung by Zhao Yongbi. Although it was released in 1994 and can be called a song that symbolizes the glamor and romance of the 1990s, it is estimated that many people born in the 90s have never heard it.
"Can't Say Goodbye" is the most important masterpiece of Alan Tam's mid-career career. His three pure gold concerts at the Hong Kong Stadium are a classic among Hong Kong concert classics, and this song was used as the finale.
The total audience for these three concerts exceeded 140,000, and there were more than 60 containers of audio and lighting equipment. He also specially customized a microphone worth 120,000 to sing this song on KTV. Basically, this concert version.
If he hadn't announced that he would no longer win awards, this song would definitely have won many awards.
The reason why the classic atmosphere of this song is not affected by time and has become more and more intense as decades have passed, the lyrics and music are crucial.
The emotions expressed in the lyrics resonate with the emotional experiences of countless people. The infatuated love and the heartache in the face of separation are as if they are narrating their own personal experiences.
The tunes range from casual to captivating. They gradually make people intoxicated from the moment the music starts, complementing the lyrics.
At this moment, on the stage of "The Story of Time", many people saw the song information and knew that it was a Cantonese singer, and expressed their great surprise.
The Xiangjiang entertainment culture on Blue Star has not yet developed. It is no exaggeration to say that it was Jiang Ge who made Cantonese songs spread from Guangdong Province to the whole country, starting from "Song of the Sunset" and "I Just Like You" to "A Chinese Story" "Ghost" and "A Laugh in the Sea", classic Cantonese songs one after another, arouse the audience's curiosity, slowly accept it, and finally like it.
The background special effects on the stage are retro style, with a sense of age and memories.
Zhang Liming sat in front of the piano, his slender fingers dancing on the keys.
“There’s no need to say whether it’s right or wrong.
Whether it’s resentment or love doesn’t need to be revealed.
What's more important than the needs of two hearts
How can we lack tenderness and sweetness..."
Open your mouth and kneel!
The reason why Zhang Liming can remain in the Chinese music scene is because of his innate musical talent, which has made him unrivaled in singing skills. Every time he sings, he is integrated with the songs, and the emotions he wants to express are vividly displayed.
His singing style today had a eloquent feeling, telling everyone present about farewell.
And "the past rights and wrongs, love and hatred are no longer important compared to the separation in front of you" is a very good entry point, expressing the pain of separation.
"Whether it's advancing or retreating, it's like a frenzy.
Whether it’s pain or love, no need to express it
I didn't even want to dream if I was willing for you
From now on, I know there will be no shortage of rumors..."
Parting is always very sad, and love songs are always entangled repeatedly. Facing the one you love, love and pain are beyond words.
There was no wrong love for the wrong person, no wrong sincerity, no wrong intentions, no reluctance or deception. At that time, it was all true feelings, and that was enough.
It's a bit troublesome to read subtitles while listening to the song.
but,
It does not prevent the listener from entering into the emotion of the song and having endless thoughts.
"The more romantic this relationship is, the better it is
Parting is the most unbearable..."
Throughout the ages, how many people have been able to bear the pain of separation?
and,
The more romantic and beautiful the affection, the more difficult it is to let go when it comes to parting.
On the stage, Zhang Liming uses a seemingly calm but mixed voice, like a slow stream to stir up emotions and slowly tell the story of love and struggle.
"I can't bear to see you turn your back to me.
It's time to leave, please don't be too attached to me
Floating dust and waves like crowds
How can I not miss you?
You and I are too sad to say goodbye! "
The song is nice, but the meaning is hard to calm down.
From the heartfelt words of "can't bear to say goodbye", to the forced blessing of "just leave if you want", and finally the sadness left in "unwilling to care about and irrevocable entanglement".
One day, those who have loved will understand that some changes are irreversible. Saying goodbye, can we see you again? Maybe it was a confused dream.
The four of them, Fang Cong, Wu Zhaotang, Zhu Ping and Shi Changxin, no longer have the pressure of being on stage. They stood on the side of the studio with ease, enjoying the new song "Can't Say Goodbye" by Zhang Liming and Jiang Ge. I don't know when it started, and they were substituted. Got in.
Among them, Fang Cong is the only one who plays music. Compared with Wu Zhaotang, Zhu Ping and Shi Changxin, he can evaluate this song from a more professional perspective.
But now, he only feels that Django is indeed worthy of the name of "Monster of Lyrics and Music".
"Can't Say Goodbye" can be heard both in the ears and in the heart. It is not limited to expressing "love", but extends to many separation occasions, such as graduation, such as seeing off, such as leaving home. Of course, it can also express the difficulty of leaving. Very sad.
The most amazing thing is that the combination of words, music and arrangement is not indulging, sad but not sad, and even carries with it the hope and blessing of encountering the mountains and rivers, making the listener not confused, lost, anxious or melancholy. Remember with a smile and face with optimism.
Fang Cong moved his eyes to the stage, where Jiang Ge was thanking the audience.
This little ginger...
It really makes people like it so much that they can’t stop.
At the same time, the fifth issue of "Extreme Challenge" is also being recorded intensively.
After losing to "The Story of Time" in ratings for two consecutive episodes, a meeting was held to make adjustments to the subsequent episodes that had not yet been filmed and to add heavyweight guests.
All bets are placed on the last issue, and we are preparing to cause trouble and big things.
The plan is to invite other members of Cai Fan's original Korean group XOX, including Xu Chenyi and Feng Yilun, two of the three returning sons, to compete against the Extreme Men Gang.
The talks with the Korean group went relatively smoothly, and only Xu Chenyi and Feng Yilun were left.
Jiang Ge didn't know the news at the moment and returned to Studio 2 of the Blueberry TV Building.
"Every time I sing your songs live, I get nervous. Did I go out of tune just now?" Zhang Liming said with a smile.
"It sounds good even if it's out of tune." Django joked.
"Haha." All Zhang Liming's gratitude was revealed in his eyes. At this age, it is really rare to be able to sing such a good song.
In fact, whether it is the studio version or the live version, Zhang Liming performs it perfectly and sings it very well. Even if it is a different style from Alan Tam, it can still make Jiang Ge feel the familiar Cantonese song flavor on earth. .
"By the way..." Zhang Liming suddenly remembered something and asked, "I read on the Internet that you and Chen Gan, the boss of Futian Games, are good friends. Is it true?"
Django responded "Yeah".
Zhang Liming's eyes lit up and he said: "I want to ask you for a favor. My eldest son likes to collect figures. He has been buying figures since the game "Legend of Sword and Fairy" went on sale, but [Li Xiaoyao's Sword" and [Zhao Ling'er Nuwa Prime Minister] These two models are so hard to grab, they are basically sold out in 1 second..."
At first Jiang Ge thought he was asking for a date.
Indeed, with the popularity of the stand-alone version of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" both domestically and overseas, a series of subsequent peripherals have also become very popular. The official website and several online shopping platform flagship stores have been out of stock for a long time.
Gu Hui
Since the singer asked for help and it was a trivial matter, he said cheerfully: "Give me an address and I'll arrange it."
Zhang Liming thanked you: "Sorry to trouble you."
After chatting for a while, Jiang Ge had a midnight snack and then went back.
It was already early morning when we got home.
After a busy day, feeling tired, Jiang Ge and Zhou Lingwei took a quick shower and went to bed to rest.
The next day.
As usual, get up early and do morning exercises. Countless healthy exercise methods shared by the [Love and Love Family] WeChat group are walking first, then jogging.
After finishing, I took a shower and picked up my phone to check today's schedule.
At ten o'clock in the morning, audition for the actors of "The Deer and the Cauldron: The Battle for the Imperial City".
At 12 noon, "Corpse Talk" was released on Penguin Video.
At 7:45 pm, the third episode of "The Story of Time" starts.
Fortunately, there aren't many things going on.
In the conference room, Mo Lan looked at the list of audition actors and asked, "Do you know how Dong Yi, Gu Yitong and Zhong Ruoqin are evaluated on the Internet?"
Jiang Ge shook his head and said, "I only read the information sent by your department. What's wrong?"
Mo Lan looked strange and said: "They are the top three on the list of [actresses who are not popular no matter how much they are praised] listed by netizens."
Jiang Ge was startled, then smiled and said, "What a coincidence, they are all in the same company."
Immediately thinking of Alibaba Group’s attribute of “investing in anything pornographic”, it doesn’t seem surprising.
Mo Lan chuckled lightly and said, "But it doesn't matter. Anyway, you ignore all the negative buffs."
Jiang Ge tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table and said, "Their images and acting skills basically fit the roles. How about watching the show for a while."
Today, in addition to Dong Yi, Gu Yitong and Zhong Ruoqin, there are ten male actors. They are auditioning for the same role, Duo Long, who is crucial in the film.
As for Kangxi, Chen Jinnan, Hai Dafu, and Ao Bai, the original actors of "Xiaobao and Kangxi" are used, namely Wu Zhaotang, Gong Li, Li Sheng, and Cao Hua.
On time and on time.
Dong Yi, Gu Yitong, Zhong Ruoqin and their managers came to the conference room.
When they met Jiang Ge for the first time, the three women suppressed their inner excitement and greeted him politely.
Jiang Ge responded calmly, then went straight to the point and asked, "Have you read the script?"
The three women replied in unison: "I saw it."
Jiang Ge immediately said: "Let's start with Dong Yi first."
Dong Yi has studied the audition footage countless times, and it can be said that he is familiar with it. However, he was still a little nervous when he was called the first one.
Accompanying her in the audition was Shen Yang, who was able to experience what another version of Wei Xiaobao was like in advance, which helped to figure out the character's psychology and grasp the character's image.
Shen Yang and Dong Yi briefly checked their positions and then started acting.
The audition clips arranged for the actors who are auditioning today are all taken from the classic scenes in the movie "The Deer and the Cauldron: The Battle for the Imperial City".
1. Wei Xiaobao was caught by the princess and had a SM session in the room.
2. Big and small Shuang'er and Wei Xiaobao tested the twins' telepathy in bed.
3. Duolong and Wei Xiaobao ransacked Obai's home together.
[Shen Yang stood in the middle of the conference room and said with a puzzled look on his face: "Did the Queen Mother know the secret of my unclean body? If this is the case, the matter will be serious!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the conference room was pushed open.
Shen Yang looked intently and asked, "Who?"
Dong Yi's gait was light and he walked straight towards him with a smile on his lips.
Shen Yang was very surprised and said: "You..."
Dong Yi smiled and said: "You don't know me?"
Shen Yang glanced up and down and said, "I'm just thinking."
Dong Yi came to stand in front of him and said, "Do you think that if my brother doesn't give you to me, you can escape from my grasp? I can't ask my mother's maid to capture you."
Shen Yang's eyes flashed and he said: "Mother, the Queen Mother..."
Dong Yi raised his chin and said: "The Queen Mother is my mother, and the Emperor is my brother."
Shen Yang asked: "Who are you?"
Dong Yi put his hands on his hips and hummed: "Don't kneel down when you see Princess Jianning!"
Shen Yang was shocked, said "Oh" and was about to kneel down.
Dong Yi raised his finger and pointed at him, saying: "It's too late. It's a treasonous act. Kill him!"
Shen Yang grimaced and explained, "Don't be so impulsive. I'm tied up and can't move."
Dong Yi had a look of evil on his face and said: "I don't care, it's treasonous and unethical, I'll kill him!"
After saying that, he took out the prop dagger and pointed it in front of him, and said with a wicked smile: "Pull out your eyes, or cut off your nose? Or cut off the place where you shouldn't be?"
Shen Yang looked down at his lower body and said hurriedly: "In my opinion, why don't you let me out first, and I will do whatever you tell me to do, okay?"]
Django crossed his arms on his chest, his face expressionless, giving people a strong aura.
Dong Yi's agent was even more nervous than she was, and her palms were all sweaty.
So far, Shen Yang has performed very well and Dong Yi's performance is quite satisfactory.
Django wouldn't shout in the middle, but let them play out the audition sequence.
[Dong Yi put away the prop dagger, looked at him and said: "Try it first to look handsome."
Shen Yang said seriously: "No need, it's already done now!"
Dong Yi chuckled and said: "Then the ugliest look will come."
Shen Yang's expression did not change and he said: "No, because no matter how you dress up, you won't be ugly!"
"Hehehehe..." Dong Yi laughed, raised his finger and pointed at him, saying: "Then, let's show the most slutty look."
Shen Yang smiled slightly and said: "No need, just go and look in the mirror!"
"Me?" Dong Yi pointed his hand back at himself, laughed "ah ha ha ha" and clapped his hands again. Suddenly he punched Shen Yang in the face and said: "Bold! It's just a bit of fun, okay, let it go." you."
Shen Yang rolled around on the ground.
Dong Yi stepped forward excitedly and said, "Why don't you pretend to be a turtle?"
Shen Yang, who got up, pointed at her and said, "I'm sorry, I can pretend to be anything, but I just won't pretend to be a turtle!"
Dong Yi asked: "Why?"
Shen Yang replied: "This is my personal principle!"
Dong Yi looked disappointed and said, "Okay then, don't you pretend to be a turtle..."
As he said that, he raised the prop stick in his hand and said, "You're going to be beaten by me!"
Shen Yang blocked the prop stick and said, "Okay, I'll play the turtle."]
Seeing this, a hint of joy appeared in Jiang Ge's eyes.
After his training and his own hard work, Shen Yang's nonsensical acting style has been able to be adjusted freely.
and,
During this short period of acting, Shen Yang's eyes, expressions, and tone had a bit of Stephen Chow's flavor, while at the same time retaining his own style.
but,
From here on, Dong Yi became more and more incapable of acting.
