Bright Star Road [Entertainment]

At [-] o'clock on Sunday night, there were many spectators waiting at the entrance of Donghai Literature and Art Channel headquarters.Some of the audience in the middle obviously came to cheer, because they brought their idols' cheers.Among them, the most popular ones are naturally W-ings.'s red, red fluorescent lamps, red glare wristbands, etc.; besides red, a bright lemon yellow has also become an eye-catching color.This Lemon Yellow support team claims to be "Vitamin" and came to support Li Wei.

The No. [-] studio of Donghai Literature and Art Channel also specially added a lot of stage design. For example, the background that was originally only spray-painted was replaced with a high and two low LED background screen. The stage was therefore divided into upper and lower floors. It looks like a rainbow bridge.Under the rainbow bridge is the entrance to the contestants, and countless hanging lights made the appearance of the galaxy shining with stars.In Chen Wendi's view, this kind of stage design is simply naive, but Li Wei said that it is already considered to be the upper-middle level of this time and space.

At [-]:[-], most of the audience and judges had already taken their seats, and the on-site director had already reminded everyone to enter the venue as soon as possible, because the live broadcast site will be prohibited from entering at [-]:[-].The audience was whispering and the judges were discussing tonight's playlist.Due to the regulations of the competition system, the judges can only get the playlists of all the contestants before the recording of the program starts.

"There is actually a chorus as the opening song tonight?" Deng Jingwen said with a smile, "Is this the theme song?"

"That's right." Simon nodded. "In addition to the theme song will be released tonight, there is also a support song that will be sung live. However, this support song will not be announced until the list of all sub-divisions is released, and then we will make it into a PV for major media Didn’t you all pay attention to Li Wei? Don’t miss him tonight. His music style will be more mature tonight, and the experimental style of the previous games will not appear. It is a mature pop music The song that the singer should show."

At eight o'clock, Donghai Literature and Art Channel began to broadcast live the finals of the "Asian Avenue of Stars" East China Sea division.Although the final was not broadcast live across the country through the Asian Television Network, many cooperative channels purchased live broadcast signals from Donghai Literature and Art Channel and planned to broadcast live together.

After the opening of the film, the [-] contestants who advanced to the finals appeared on the stage. They collectively brought you the theme song "Perseverance" of "Asian Avenue of Stars".Thanks to the rehearsal a few days ago, there were no mistakes during the live broadcast. Not only did everyone sing very well, but there was no problem walking on stage.Several important contestants got close-up shots because of their solo lyrics, which also let the TV audience and the live audience get a general idea of ​​who is the "seed contestant" of this evening.I have to say that the chorus part of the song "Perseverance" written by Li Wei is quite catchy. During the second chorus, many audience members were able to sing along with the lyrics on the big screen.

After the chorus ended, W-ings' performance followed. W-ings.'s "DeSuperAmant～Did I Feel My Love Tonight～" was also a hit single on the "Pop Music" Billboard Singles Chart for five consecutive weeks, so when the familiar prelude sounded, the whole The atmosphere at the scene was heated up immediately.

And the high-level executives who watched the broadcast in the meeting room of Smart Office were not very good-looking, especially Teng Jingli once said that inFinite would be a guest and asked Yaxing to suppress Li Wei.As a result, Yaxing Production not only rejected its own request, but reached a cooperation agreement with Chia Tai Performing Arts.

"Do you know where your mistakes are?" Watching the performance of W-ings., Chen Wende, the president of the firm, said calmly, "The lion fights the rabbit, and you use all your strength! Since you want to ban that child Li Wei, then Show the style of the firm! When we blocked others, when did we need to cover up? Directly explain to the relevant units that our firm will not participate in any programs that have Li Wei's child on stage; The TV station that appeared, our firm will no longer cooperate with it in the near future. Also, since you ask others to do things, why are you reluctant to push your trump card? An inFinite wants to make a large production company like Yaxing Productions give in, Are your heads flooded? Why not use Storm? Why not use APEX? Think about it!"

After W-ings. finished singing, he asked his fans to pay more attention to "Asian Avenue of Stars", which was specially ordered by his agency.Many brokerage companies now understand the star-making ability of "Asian Avenue of Stars". Before it is broadcast nationwide, many players have already begun to emerge.

In the East China Sea competition area, Li Wei is the only one outstanding, and in the Jinguan competition area, Huang Azhe, the creative king, also leads the audience.The Yanjing division produced Asuka, a pop-punk band with an average age of less than 18, while the Nanhua division had a female duet group called Twin Flowers.In addition, Alexandra, a soul singer who amazed the audience in the Cape Town division, and Chen Xuan, who touched the audience with a guitar in the North Island division.

"Asian Avenue of Stars" has already revealed its ferocious features, and "TV Guide" magazine predicts that "Asian Avenue of Stars" will win the triple crown of ratings for the same period, weekly ratings, and weekly variety shows.

After W-ings. left the stage, the "Asian Avenue of Stars" East China Sea Division finals officially started.All contestants drew lots for the last time before going on stage.As the champion of the rematch, Li Wei got the embarrassing lottery of No. 13.Although the Huaxia Kingdom of this plane has maintained most of its traditions, in the field of young people, it is still inevitably invaded by Western culture.However, Li Wei didn't have any special feelings about this lottery. Could it be that aliens invaded the earth when he was on the 13th stage and the show was interrupted?

The first singer to appear ranked 19th in the rematch, basically a quasi-elimination singer.But to everyone's surprise, I don't know if he thought he knew that he had no hope of advancing, so he was very open when he sang.Because he sang very easily, his singing skills were mediocre, but he gained a lot of points because of the typhoon.And the female singer immediately after this singer is No.2 in the rematch, and even Li Wei was amazed by her smoky voice.You must know that a smokey voice is a must-kill weapon for singing jazz. A female singer with a smokey voice is like a peerless actress when she sings jazz.And her stability also gave Li Wei a headache, because at this stage, not making mistakes means it is easier to win.

Li Wei watched other singers perform in the waiting area, which also put more pressure on other singers who were still waiting.After these two rounds of competition, many people know that the gap between themselves and Li Wei is no longer a bright spot, but a gap between one stage and another.In the eyes of these pure draft singers, there seems to be no difference between themselves and record singers.I can also sing songs sung by record singers, and I am more popular than them when I sing in bars or KTVs.But after actually getting on the stage, the gap between draft singers and recording singers has come out.Among other things, Li Wei's typhoon on stage is enough to crush everything.And most importantly, Li Wei will not make mistakes on stage.It's not that Li Wei can perform well on stage, but at least he won't have the problem of missing beats due to nervousness; at the same time, he won't start to delay the beat and change the rhythm because of singing high.

When the No.10 player was sung, the on-site director began to come to the waiting area to find Li Wei and prepare for the backstage.Li Wei sat quietly in the backstage preparation area with a microphone, and then began to brew his emotions. "Diamond" is not a song with a very positive melody. In fact, the whole song is more filled with failure and unwillingness, persistence and dreams.And "Diamond" has many metaphors in the lyrics, such as tears, dreams and so on.

The original singer, Kekukola, is not the kind of singer who is all smooth sailing. They were originally street singers, and they formed a group because of their interest.Since his debut as an independent musician in 1998, he was finally forced to succumb to commercial pop and become a commercial singer in 2001.But also starting in 2001, Kekukola began to become one of the few groups in the Japanese music circle that relied on folk songs to become popular.Their fresh and natural distinctions are known as healing singers, so this song "Diamond" also healed many teenagers who returned home frustrated in Jiashien.Although this is a song sung to losers, the positive elements in the lyrics are still there.So on the whole, this is a "sad but not sad" song.

Just after Li Wei found the feeling in the lyrics, the assistant director came over and patted Li Wei on the shoulder, indicating that he was ready to appear on stage.Perhaps because Li Wei is the most important seed player, the producer also showed the greatest sincerity.The entire stage was completely dark because of him, leaving only the starlight like diamonds shining on the black velvet.

And a sad melody gradually sounded, and Li Wei sang softly in the dark of the stage, "Not everything can be repeated again and again, there will be no chance to go back to the past, please let me Now engraved in your heart..."

Accompanied by Li Wei's singing, a beam of spotlights hit Li Wei's body.In fact, the follow spot light is very good for creating an atmosphere, but it is not so comfortable for the people who are hit by the follow spot light.In the surrounding environment with extreme contrast between light and dark, people's eyes are actually uncomfortable.So Li Wei simply closed his eyes and started singing, which actually made his expression more integrated into the lyrics.

When the lyrics of the chorus "Hide the cuffs that wiped away tears, only believe in dreams and shining diamonds" were sung, the light behind Li Wei changed from the cold starlight color to the warm flame color, and in creating In the light of the flames, bird-like patterns flew by, like phoenixes in nirvana.

When Li Wei sang the whole song, the four judges and the audience stood up and applauded.For the audience, they don't care what type of song it is, they only care about how the song feels in their ears.In fact, there are not many successful people in life, most of them are not losers or frustrated people, but Li Wei’s song gave them a lot of comfort, and at the same time comforted them, you are not heroes, as long as you get out of the first stage One step, and success is no longer the ultimate goal.

This kind of lyrics that directly hit the hearts of the audience naturally triggered their most direct response; several middle-aged people who were no longer young could not help rubbing their already wet eye sockets with their hands.The applause of the audience lasted for nearly 5 minutes before it ended, and Li Wei had to bow again and again to express his thanks.

To be continued...

The author has something to say: I did not find the PV version of "Diamond" by Kekukola, but I only found the review video of Jiashien made by NHK with this support song.
