Chapter 173 The opening is a king bomb! [Dazhang asks for subscription]

After skydiving from the Twin Towers and getting "Under the Flying Clouds", Xiao Ning has been thinking about how to make this song since returning home yesterday.

After spending several hours analyzing the melody of the entire song, he came to the conclusion that he could indeed sing this song on the show.

However, in order to be able to bring this song to the stage of "The Masked Singer", he needs to make some minor adjustments to the song.

"Under the Flying Clouds" is indeed a song sung by men and women, but in fact, most of the passages are male and female duets, male voices and female voices, and there are only a few lines in which male voices and female voices actually sing together.

Just split the lyrics of the chorus, record another part in advance and add it to the accompaniment. If the singing skills of most of the remaining male and female duet passages are sufficient, you can handle different parts of male and female voices with ease. In theory, there is no problem at all. of.

After being blessed with master-level vocal skills, Xiao Ning's singing skills are already at the first-line level, so after confirming that the fine-tuning plan is feasible, he immediately made some minor adjustments to the accompaniment.

Then in the recording studio at home, he directly tried to use popular singing to sing two parts by one person and completed the song "Under the Flying Clouds".

Although the recording effect of the home recording studio is definitely not as good as that of a professional recording studio, it is completely sufficient for just making a sample.

But Xiao Ning was not satisfied with the final finished product.

Because of the final situation of this song, if you don’t compare it with the original singer, it’s fine. As long as you compare it with the original singer, although it’s not crushed, it’s definitely won by "Han" and "Lin". The effect of the original singing was beaten.

Being able to sing means being able to sing, but it does not mean being able to sing well.

In the song "Under the Flying Clouds", if a female singer sings a female voice, the difficulty is actually not particularly high, but if a male singer is to sing a female voice, the difficulty will directly double.

In addition, the male part of the song itself is much more difficult for male singers than the female part for female singers.

In the section of the male voice, there are too many high-density voice-changing areas. The verse is weakly mixed to A4, and the chorus is heavily balanced to B4, but the articulation must be gentle. These are already very particular about the singer's singing skills, and the final long tone plus the transposition directly raise the real high pitch to #C5. For ordinary male singers, the real high pitch alone can persuade them to quit Most of them.

If Xiao Ning was only asked to sing the male part or the female part alone, with his singing skills, although the final performance could not be called "perfect", at least it would be above the standard.

But if you want to sing both the male part and the female part, there are a lot of connection and conversion details in the middle, and the requirements for singing skills can be said to be doubled.

Master-level vocal skills can't handle it.

After Xiao Ning came to this conclusion yesterday, based on the idea that the free skill points are enough anyway, he directly waved his hand, threw 30 free skill points, and rushed his vocal skill directly to the hall level.

Then, after digesting all the hall-level vocal music theories and techniques in the learning space, Xiao Ning practiced "Under the Flying Clouds" many times in the learning space. He was so comfortable that he chose to exit the study space.

As a result of his hall-level vocal skills and a lot of special exercises for this song, he can not only use two different male voices to perform male and female parts, but also directly use a more neutral voice to sing the female part alone.

After trying to record the whole song again at home, Xiao Ning compared it with the original song again.

This time it feels much, much better.

It’s not good or bad, I can only say that the original singing and the version with one person singing two voices after fine-tuning by him have their own advantages and disadvantages.

Of course, for those who have heard the original singing, it is estimated that some people will still prefer the original singing. After all, for music works, the original singing itself is like "White Moonlight".

But there is no such song "Under the Flying Clouds" on Water Blue Planet...

After confirming that the effect was very good, Xiao Ning, who felt good about the adjustment of this song, then rushed to complete the accompaniment adjustment of the chorus part at home, and added some female parts sung by himself to the accompaniment.

All this was finally done before Xiao Ning took his afternoon nap when he only slept for five hours at night.

At this moment, after answering Sun Ye's call, Xiao Ning directly told him the song he was going to sing in the first round of "The God of Masked Singer".

After learning that Xiao Ning was going to sing an original song, and the title of the song was "Under the Flying Clouds", even though Sun Ye knew Xiao Ning better, he still couldn't help him.

It's all under the clouds!

Doesn't it make it clear that the song was written because of the skydiving from the Twin Towers yesterday?
Xiao Ning who jumped off the twin towers yesterday, isn't that under the flying clouds?

so.

Yesterday Xiao Ning went to the Petronas Twin Towers for an extreme challenge, and finally created a brand new world record for low-altitude skydiving, which is just an appearance!
His real purpose, now that he thinks about it, is to find inspiration for writing songs!

In other words, he worked so hard so that the "Masked Singer" program would not fail!
What kind of world record was just broken by the way!

After thinking about these in my heart.

Sun Ye suddenly felt that his heart was full of emotion.

When he was in Hummingbird, Xiao Ning could climb stairs and ride a bicycle for the performance of Hummingbird's music department.

Now that he has cooperated with Xuanji, he is still willing to jump off a building for Xuanji's performance in "The God of Masked Singer" this time!
"No!"

"He's not for Hummingbird and Xuanji at all, but for..."

"For me!"

Sun Ye's expression was suddenly sluggish, and the sockets of his eyes turned slightly red.

"Isn't it for me?"

"When he was in Hummingbird, he worked so hard for the performance of the Hummingbird Music Department. At that time, as the head of the Hummingbird Music Department, the performance of the music department was directly related to me."

"So at that time, he was for me!"

"He is working so hard with Xuanji now, isn't it because I am the person in charge of Xuanji's music department?"

"If I wasn't the person in charge of the Xuanji Music Department, I guess Xiao Ning wouldn't have cooperated with the Xuanji Music Department at all?"

"He is now also for me!"

"Who in the family knows!"

"He really!"

"I cry to death!"

After thinking about this, Sun Ye, who was so moved that he was about to cry, said "Okay" repeatedly on the phone, and said that he didn't blame Xiao Ning for what happened yesterday.

This made Xiao Ning a little puzzled.

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Ning rubbed his chin in bewilderment: "Mr. Sun said that I am not to blame for what happened yesterday, what did I do yesterday?"

The other side at this time.

The music business department on the seventh floor of Xuanji Entertainment Headquarters, in the minister's office.

While Sun Ye couldn't wait to open the accompaniment file and lyrics file sent by Xiao Ning, he was both moved and ashamed.

When Xiao Ning challenged at the Twin Towers yesterday, it happened to be when he was squatting in the company bathroom.

At that time, after witnessing Xiao Ning jumping down and then not opening the umbrella in the air, even if he was only tens of meters away from the ground, he insisted on not opening the umbrella.

At that time, he was so scared that he cut it off.

And the broken part, until this afternoon, still hasn't come out.

It can be said that Xiao Ning's series of operations yesterday directly frightened Sun Ye out of his old problem of constipation.

So in fact, in his subconscious mind, he had some small emotions towards Xiao Ning.

I can't talk about complaining, but if it is called "grievances of grievances", it should be just right.

However, after learning about the situation of Xiao Ning's new song, such emotions have now dissipated, replaced by heartfelt emotion.

All that Xiao Ning risked his life to do was for the new song!For the image of Xuanji he represented on the stage of "The God of Masked Singer"!For myself in the music department!
Compared with these, the small problem of constipation that I have suffered so far because of being frightened, is not a problem anymore.

Who would blame a dedicated artist who treats work diligently?
While clicking on the lyrics file, Sun Ye suddenly murmured in embarrassment: "He has already risked his life for the program "Masked Singer", how can you still think about those things that pinch constipation? about?"

"Sun Ye, you are not human!"

At this time, the lyrics file has been displayed on the screen in front of him.

After roughly reading the lyrics, Sun Ye's eyes were full of surprises.

"Such lyrics..."

"Another song about dreams."

"not bad!"

"Xiao Ning's previous songs about dreams and inspiration, none of them are bad!"

Even if he didn't try to listen to the accompaniment content, according to Xiao Ning's past performance, Sun Ye has concluded that this song "Under the Flying Clouds" is definitely a masterpiece above the standard.

He immediately opened the accompaniment file.

Although Xiao Ning did not provide him with a demo this time, after so many years of deep cultivation in the music industry, after looking at the lyrics and listening to the accompaniment, Sun Ye can still judge the quality of the song itself.

The simple piano sounds, and the cut-in of each key corresponds to the lyrics.

Then with the other instruments added by the piano, especially the faint drumbeat, Sun Ye directly threw himself into the accompaniment of pure instruments.

But listen.

He suddenly froze.

After listening to the accompaniment of the previous two songs...

A human voice suddenly appeared in the accompaniment!
"How long has it been silent..."

Sun Ye's voice sounded familiar, but it was definitely not Xiao Ning's voice.

Because the voice of this song is neutral, even slightly female.

Sun Ye, who has been the opponent's immediate boss since Xiao Ning's debut, has never heard such a singing voice from Xiao Ning.

"But why is it so familiar?"

"and many more!"

"Whether this voice is familiar or not is not the key!"

"The key is why there is a human voice in this pure accompaniment? Is it a neutral voice with a female voice?"

"Did Xiao Ning invite other singers to help record the accompaniment and harmony for this song?"

"But the human voice is so loud, it doesn't seem like they are in harmony anymore."

"Like..."

Sun Ye frowned suddenly: "This is like a chorus."

This time, all the guest singers participating in "The God of Masked Singer" are solo singers!
Because the rules of this episode of the program itself do not allow combinations to join.

Even if Xiao Ning probably didn't think about finding someone to cooperate with and participate in the show as a group, but the presence of vocals that are obviously part of the chorus in the accompaniment is already not allowed.

After all, the rules of the show are there.

There are harmonies in the accompaniment, that's okay, the program allows it.

But that won't work if there's another singer's chorus melody in the accompaniment.

"It doesn't have to be a chorus, maybe it's just Xiao Ning specially making a harmony?"

Sun Ye hurriedly continued to listen.

After listening to the accompaniment of the whole song, Sun Ye frowned.

He was not sure after only listening to the first two paragraphs, but after listening to the entire accompaniment, from his professional point of view, his guess about this song is already solid.

This is a choral song!
and!

It should be a song divided into two voices for chorus!

The feeling from the accompaniment told him that this song must be sung in two parts, the male part and the female part!

According to the current situation.

Most likely, Xiao Ning found a female singer to sing with him!

And this is against the rules of the program group.

Everyone sings solo, isn't it funny that you go up and bring a female guest to sing in chorus?

"The God of Masked Singer" is not a new program, but an old one.

Not to mention the singers and entertainers who are mixed in the circle, even many ordinary music lovers are quite familiar with the rules of this show.

As a professional singer, Xiao Ning couldn't possibly be ignorant of the rules of this issue of "The God of Masked Singer".

Then why did he prepare to sing such a chorus song?
Sun Ye couldn't figure it out.

But in a few hours, it will be the deadline for the program group to accept information about guest performances.

He had to figure it out right away.

The call went directly to Xiao Ning.

And before getting through to Sun Ye's call, Xiao Ning thought that the other party was probably praising him like before.

After all, for those songs that passed through the hands of Sun Ye before the song was released, Sun Ye would take the initiative to find him and give him a very high evaluation after listening to it.

However, Sun Ye's first sentence made Xiao Ning a little uncomfortable.

"Then what, Xiao Ning, did you have too exciting skydiving yesterday, the wind was too strong that day, and you caught a cold?"

When Xiao Ning was hearing this incomprehensibly, Sun Ye spoke again.

"The show "The God of Masked Singer" is an old show, so I didn't tell you about the rules in detail, but you should know the rules. The show has to be solo, and no groups can appear on stage."

"I just thought about your song "Under the Flying Clouds". No matter how you look at it, it's also a chorus song."

As soon as Sun Ye said this, Xiao Ning probably guessed what the other party was thinking, and explained: "Mr. Sun, who told you that this is a chorus song? This issue of "The God of Masked Singer" can only be sung solo. I know the rules for sure, and this is a song I'm going to sing solo."

Hearing Xiao Ning's answer, it was Sun Ye's turn to be at a loss.

This is a solo?

What is this solo about!
I can't hear the loud neutral female voice in the accompaniment, right?

Even if you really sang this song by yourself, but you add other people's chorus to the accompaniment, this is not allowed by the program rules!
Sun Ye hesitated and said, "This... solo? Xiao Ning... then who is that female voice in your accompaniment?"

Xiao Ning coughed dryly: "Me."

Sun Ye: "Who?"

Xiao Ning: "Me."

Sun Ye: "Who am I...?"

Xiao Ning: "I...it's me."

Sun Ye: "You? You??!"

"Xiao Ning! Have you changed your gender?"

As soon as Sun Ye said this, the two fell silent.

After a while, Xiao Ning replied with a strange tone: "No."

Sun Ye swallowed: "But this is obviously a female voice, how can you sing this kind of voice?"

"Changed the vocal part, and the voice is like this." After Xiao Ning finished speaking, he simply sang a song of the female part of "Under the Flying Clouds" over the phone.

After singing a sentence, he began to talk nonsense in a serious manner: "I didn't think of doing this when I wrote this song before, but I found that if this song is sung in two parts, male and female, in the end, no matter what It will be better in terms of sense of hearing and artistic conception of the song.”

"So I changed it a little bit and found that I can sing the female part by myself, and then I made it like this. The chorus part in the accompaniment is all my own voice. According to the program rules, there is no problem at all. of."

Sun Ye fell silent.

Because the female part of Xiao Ning's a cappella just now can't be said to be exactly the same as in the accompaniment, but at least it can be heard from one person's mouth.

No wonder it felt familiar when I heard this voice before!

Dare to...

Dare to Love is sung by Xiao Ning!
Special!

His singing skills have improved now?
Even a fucking female voice can sing so well?

To be honest, if Xiao Ning didn't take the initiative to sing a cappella just now, Sun Ye couldn't believe that Xiao Ning sang that line at all.

But now the situation is.

This female part is really sung by Xiao Ning!

and!Just from the singing voice that changed the position of the voice, Sun Ye, as a professional, has clearly heard that Xiao Ning's singing skills are much better than before!
That kind of detailed processing, even if it's just singing a cappella, is a level that many singers and even first-line singers cannot do!
Coupled with the voices added by Xiao Ning in the previous accompaniment, it was roughly judged by Sun Ye.

Xiao Ning's current singing skills are not only top-notch, but even better than most top-tier singers!
however!
In fact, many creative singers, even ceiling-level original musicians, are often at a disadvantage in terms of singing skills. It’s not that their singing skills are not strong enough, but that compared to their amazing original skills, their singing skills are obviously inferior up some.

But such a situation does not exist in Xiao Ning at all!
Top notch creativity!

In the past, I could only say that I had relatively strong singing skills, but now it can almost be said to be top-notch!

This is outrageous!
He can sing, jump off buildings, and can rap in the soundtrack of "Initial D"...

A whole pentagon warrior, right?
"After a singer has achieved a fairly professional level, the improvement of singing skills is often the result of several years or even ten years of hard work..."

"He's doing a lot of work on extremes, making movies, and writing songs. You don't need to think about it, but you don't have much time to practice songs!"

"Let's just practice singing! Let's just let him practice singing every day!"

"Practice while running while parkour, practice while riding while riding a bicycle, practice while driving while driving, practice singing while shooting a movie, practice singing while jumping off a building, practice singing while writing songs..."

"It's only been a few months."

"Even if he practices singing 24 hours a day, it's impossible for him to improve so fast!"

After Sun Ye thought of this, a word suddenly appeared in his mind.

Epiphany!

The meaning of epiphany is like in a martial arts novel where someone has practiced a certain skill for many years without making any progress, but one day he fell asleep and suddenly achieved the state of Dzogchen.

Different from those "epiphany boys" who were bronze yesterday and become kings today, they don't talk about the fabricated content of martial arts novels. In fact, in many fields of artistic creation, the term epiphany really exists.

Let's say a writer, let's say a painter, let's say a pianist.

Writers can go to the small rooms in the alleys to go deep into the grassroots to complete the collection, and gain creative inspiration from the epiphany of writing techniques.

The painter can hear the phrase "Save the people" from the soliciting lady at the train station, so as to seek a breakthrough in the realm of painting.

Pianists can also invite bosom friends on the Internet and then go to the hotel, and after percussion exchanges with bosom friends, they can gain the increase in piano skills.

It's just that, even as a senior practitioner in the music industry, Sun Ye has never heard of many precedents for a singer's epiphany in terms of singing skills.

But in Xiao Ning's current situation, if he didn't have an epiphany in singing, then what would it be?
Yesterday Sun Ye heard Liu Weiwei who was at the scene of the Twin Towers talk about one thing, that is, the vice president of the Austrian Red Bull Dragon Country had a very high evaluation of Xiao Ning's performance in the extreme field, and even called Xiao Ning a genius.

Now it seems that Xiao Ning is not only a genius in the extreme field.

He is also a genius when it comes to composing and writing songs.

In terms of singing skills, which is an essential element for a singer, he is still a genius.

"It's so scary!"

"My motherfucker is so terrifying."

Sun Ye, who was bursting with foul language in his heart, took a few seconds to say to Xiao Ning: "I really didn't expect you to improve so fast..."

"Then what, Xiao Ning, because the situation of your song is a bit special, in order to prevent the program team from judging you for violating the rules, it's best for you to create a demo and submit it to there."

"If it's convenient for you now, just come directly to the company and simply record a demo, because the deadline for submitting information from the program group is approaching."

After all, there are relatively few cases where one person sings male and female parts separately, and there are relatively few examples of a chorus song being completed by one person. In addition, the difference between the male and female parts of "Under the Flying Clouds" is quite large, which is so big that it is difficult There is no doubt that this is the reason why the two people sang, and there is nothing wrong with what Sun Ye said.

Xiao Ning, who understood Sun Ye's meaning, said casually: "As for the demo, I recorded some at home this morning. Just wait a moment, and I'll just send it to you."

After hanging up the phone and waiting for ten minutes.

Sun Ye received the demo from Xiao Ning.

This one-minute demo not only includes male and female solo parts of the verse, but also the chorus part of the chorus.

After Sun Ye finished listening, there were only two words in his mind.

Awesome!
Let him call out the awesome reason in his heart.

Not only is the quality and completion of the song "Under the Flying Clouds" itself extremely high!

It's not just Xiao Ning's perfect performance in this demo!
It is also because of the characteristics of the program "The God of Masked Singer" with "suspense" elements!
As a feature of "The God of Masked Song", the "masked face" of "The God of Masked Song" has always been a place that people talk about.

In the show, you sing well and your creative ability is great, but you may not be the final winner.

The final winner only belongs to the singer whose identity has not been guessed until the last round of the show!

This means that to be the winner, not only do you have to sing well and write well, you also have to be deceptive enough in your very catchy vocals!
In the previous "Masked Singer" program, there was a situation where first-line big-name singers went directly to the show.

The reason why the other party was directly recognized and eliminated in the first round was because the singer's voice was too recognizable, and he didn't hide anything when he performed the song, so he was directly voted by the judges and the audience to find out the truth. The identity is directly removed from the mask and eliminated.

And judging from the demo Xiao Ning sent, Sun Ye dare not say anything about the follow-up situation, but when the song "Under the Flying Clouds" is finished singing on stage, no one will guess that it is Xiao Ning!
Don't talk about others!

If Sun Ye didn't know the situation of this song, and listened to this song under unknown circumstances, he wouldn't think about Xiao Ning because of this song at all!
"The beginning is a king bomb!"

"Who the hell would have guessed that?"

Sun Ye, with a grinning old face, personally contacted the contact person of the program team of "The God of Masked Singer". After briefly talking about Xiao Ning and the situation of "Under the Flying Clouds", he sent the relevant information to him.

At this moment.

In Shanghai, in the building of Shanghai TV station, in the office area of ​​the "Masked Song God" program group.

A young girl hurried into the director's office.

The young girl's name is Wang Wanru, and she is one of the assistant directors of the program group.

She just got the information about Xiao Ning's recording of the show from Xuanji, and she was about to inform the director about it.

The director in charge of "The God of Masked Singer" is named Huang Xiang. He is 42 years old this year and is quite well-known as a variety show director.

And "The God of Masked Singer", which has been aired for several episodes, is the representative program he created in the first place.

Although due to his short stature of only 1.5 meters, Huang Xiang will always receive some strange eyes when he goes out, but in the field of variety show directors, he is indeed a giant.

As soon as Wang Wanru entered the door, she went straight to the topic and said, "Director Huang, Xuanji has submitted Xiao Ning's song selection information."

"The situation of his song is a bit special, so besides the accompaniment file, Xuanji also provided a demo."

"I just put all the files in this encrypted USB flash drive. If you have time, take a look at it now. If there is no problem, I can reply to Xuanji."

After receiving the USB flash drive from Wang Wanru, Huang Xiang asked in confusion: "What kind of special method? Do you need to provide an additional demo?"

Wang Wanru gave a general introduction to Xiao Ning's song.

After learning that Xiao Ning planned to play two roles in this song, he would sing both the male part and the female part, and complete a chorus song in the form of a solo.

Huang Xiang suddenly became interested.

　I still overestimated my coding ability.

　　Today's [-]D is [-] different from everyone, and it will be returned tomorrow (there is a high probability that it will be changed during the day, because I plan to stay up late to write)
　　Thank you for your monthly support!
　　It's the end of the month, don't forget to give Gouzi a pass if you have too many monthly passes!
　　I was sick and made the update of this book shut down for a long time, and the subscription was also dropped. When the status recovered, try to pull it back!
　　Tell me about the follow-up Mount Everest story!
　　There will be no large-scale entertainment, but two fields will be interspersed.

　　Basically, it was to write about a situation where the whole internet wanted to know who that person was on the show, and then Xiao Ning was doing extreme frantic searches in another place, and no one paid any attention to his situation.

　　This program will not be very long. The highlights of the big plot of Mount Everest are still in the back, and I plan to add something different to it above 8000 meters.

　　I hope everyone can continue to subscribe, and vote monthly if possible!Don't need a reward!
　　I will restore more updates as soon as possible, everyone, don't forget this book!

　　thank!
