Thinker in the entertainment industry

Zheng Zhiyong and Zhang Yuan made the opening together, introducing the first group of Seol Woo and Song Min Ho who performed on stage, and then stepped off the stage to wait for orders, and listened to this version of "Cowardly" by the way.

"Who do you think will be the first?" Zheng Zhiyong's silence made Zhang Yuan a little uncomfortable, so he had nothing to say.

Zheng Zhiyong raised his chin: "This group."

"reason?"

"The number of fans", Zheng Zhiyong said, "The audience is made up of fans. Senior Xue You is more popular. People's preferences can have a great impact on judgment."

In short, it is not so easy to break through the "fan filter".

This time in "Cowardly", Song Minho's performance is quite satisfactory. His current state of mind cannot be compared with that in the semi-finals of "Show Methemoney" a year ago, and his feelings will undoubtedly be discounted. However, with his strong psychological quality, even if there is a discount , and not much higher.

Xue You's performance disappointed Zheng Zhiyong.Xue You's live singing skills are not strong, he already knew this, but the rehearsal was not well coordinated and the schedule came so late, and the live performance did not even reach his own average, either he sang well to block all criticism, or Be serious and sincere, even if the result is not so good, you can't be too harsh if you try your best.Zheng Zhiyong thought that his requirements were not high.

Looking at it in isolation, compared with the other groups, the result has not changed. Even if the cooperation between Jiang Shengyun and Yu Tian, ​​Zico and Hu Dong did not meet the standard of "tacit understanding", at least there is a lot of cooperation. It can be seen that the heart is there, Park Jae The cooperation between Fan and Wang Yuejin is more like doing their own things. There is not so much cooperation, but they have completed their tasks well...

The slander belongs to the slander, as the host stands on the stage, it is necessary to hold both sides.The Korean singers naturally had no pressure to boast. As for the Chinese side, they were sincere to Hu Dong and Yu Tian and Zheng Zhiyong, and used prepared lines to Wang Yuejin.For example, when Seol Woo and Song Min Ho were the first to sing "Cowardly", Zhang Yuan said, "It's really a great performance, thinker, what do you think?"

At that time, Zheng Zhiyong first said: "I thought you would call Yuan Fang."

His Chinese pronunciation is very standard, but at this time he deliberately pinned his tongue for the effect of the program. It sounded like the standard pronunciation of "foreigners who can't speak Chinese well". After laughing, the Chinese singers sitting across the stage also understood. "I haven't figured out one question yet—how much do thinkers know?" Wang Yuejin said, grabbing the microphone.

"It's enough to be diligent on the Internet," Zheng Zhiyong said with a smile, he didn't continue to "go off topic", turned sideways to Song Minho and Seol You who had finished the performance, "Why do I have any objections to "Cowardly"? What a great song, isn't it—"

The fans' answer is of course: "Yes——"

Zico, who figured out what Zheng Zhiyong was talking about with the help of a translator: Why do I feel like you are blowing me?

There are a total of four cooperative stages, so the performance time is shorter than the previous recording, and chatting and variety show effects take up more weight. Zheng Zhiyong has a lot more to say than the previous one, and even made a Some professional comments, such as Jiang Seungyun and Yu Tian's joint stage, complained about Jiang Seungyun's "really love harmony", Jiang Shengyun asked him to talk about any problems, Zheng Zhiyong said "Your voices can be more coordinated".Of course, this is not derogatory. More importantly, singers from different countries practice together for a very short time, and it is already very good to be able to achieve harmony.He didn't sing impromptu anymore. Zheng Zhiyong is very familiar with the situation in China and South Korea, and singing is not the only skill point.

If he is familiar with both sides, Zheng Zhiyong would like to suggest an activity to improvise each other's songs. Among other things, Chinese fans are definitely not satisfied that their Korean idols can only sing "Sweet Honey" or "Sunshine" "Aerial Photos" (only limited to Zico), but if it can't be a formal session, it's just adding burden to his friends.

Chinese is too difficult to learn.

After the four stages ended, there was on-site voting. Xue You and Song Minhao's "Cowardice" won the first place. This result is not incomprehensible. Xue You's popularity in China is much higher than his three compatriots, and outsiders like Zico, It is not really popular in China.Understandably, absolute fairness is rare after all, it's just a bit ironic.

People don't put their opinions on this kind of thing on the table, so the joy or congratulations seem to be sincere.

After stepping down, it's another matter. Those who are interviewed go to be interviewed, and those who communicate about the next step are communicating about the next step.Xue You first went to the director of the program group, and came back after a while, "Sorry, I have something to talk with..." At this moment, he saw Zheng Zhiyong standing against the wall next to him, "Ah, thinker, you are also there."

Zheng Zhiyong: "Huh?"

Xue You resolutely let go of Korean and Chinglish, which he only scratched the surface of: "I went to find the director, and the rehearsal video of you and Song Minho will be included in the extra episode."

Zheng Zhiyong cast a puzzled look, Xue You didn't know whether he was genuinely suspicious or not, it didn't matter anyway: "Put me in front of the stage of "Cowardly", and I will be completely outmatched by you."

"When I sing Korean songs, I will be inferior to Zhang Liyin. In terms of singing skills", Zheng Zhiyong said calmly, "But it is easy to have disputes when put together, so let's do it."

Zheng Zhiyong's words sounded like consolation. Language is indeed not an insurmountable obstacle in many cases. Korean first-class singers can sing Chinese songs better than Chinese second-rate singers. It's not very shameful to be inferior to a foreigner.But at the same time, Zheng Zhiyong's words have another meaning, that is, Xue You's singing skills are not as good as Zheng Zhiyong's, at least the live singing skills he is showing now are like this.

"How can there be such a talented person?" Xue You didn't intend to pursue what Zheng Zhiyong meant. He first gave Zheng Zhiyong a top hat, "I won this time, and there will be a special performance in the next recording, let's decide what to sing?"

"Can I make a suggestion?" Zheng Zhiyong said, "There is a song, and I already have an idea about its adaptation. I don't know if you want to use it, or if there will be any problems when singing it." He said Looking at Xue You, he said, "If it doesn't work, I will ask my senior for authorization, so that I can add one more song when the album is released later."

Xue You's heart thumped, and he became inexplicably anxious: "Which song?"

"The Circus Clown." Zheng Zhiyong replied.

Xue You put away his smile, and his expression was solemn: "Tell me what you think."

After the words were out of his mouth, Xue You thought of Song Minho who was still sitting next to him, and suddenly became embarrassed, and turned to Zheng Zhiyong to organize the words, but Zheng Zhiyong seemed to understand, and directly whispered to Song Minho in Korean After a few words, Song Minho laughed and leaned on the sofa to watch.

Before Xue You came back, Zheng Zhiyong and Song Minho were not just sitting around—— Zheng Zhiyong had already explained the idea of ​​this adaptation to Song Minho in detail, and now he wants to explain it again to Xue You .

Song Minho's response to him was: "If other people have no problems, I have no reason to refuse to try."

And Xue You said that after listening to Zheng Zhiyong's explanation, he was silent for a while, and then he resumed his nonsensical and insane look when he was doing the show: "In fact, I really want to earn copyright fees, so you can change it to Singing in Korean, my copyright income may be the most in these years, but then I won’t be able to sing... Let’s sing in the next round, alas, do you think I should pay you?”

"What about Min Ho?" Zheng Zhiyong mercilessly asked Xue You to dispel his unrealistic thoughts, "Just say in the show that the person who adapted the adaptation is me, and you don't have to bear too much pressure if you can show the work. , it's not a bad thing for me."

"Ah", Xue You responded, "That's what it should be, you should be blown away."

Zheng Zhiyong smiled: "Then you guys talk first? I want to go out." If this continues, he and Song Minho are like a group (during the rehearsal), and he and Seol You are also like a group, Only Xue You and Song Min Ho, who are actually partners, don't look like a team.

"Hey..." Xue You finally held back, did not extend Erkang's hand, pointed to Song Minhao, and pointed to the direction where Zheng Zhiyong left, "agoodtrantor", he said, "iwanthishelp".

Song Minhao, whose English is bad and Chinese is even worse, silently took out his mobile phone, ready to ask for help from modern technology, Xue You hesitated, and finally did the same thing, but his mind was still in the middle of what Zheng Zhiyong said just now.

Sure enough, he is a very popular producer in Korea. The idea he came up with is so good that people have nothing to say. More importantly, Xue You can feel Zheng Zhiyong's thoughts from it, so Zheng Zhiyong's attitude in his heart is changed from " "Dissatisfaction" has become "disappointment", and it is normal to find that the singer who I admired originally has a poor work attitude, and it is normal to have a little temper.

As soon as he thought that a strange colleague from a foreign country might have had such a genuine appreciation for him, Xue You couldn't bring up any anger at all, and even felt a little guilty and regretful.

Oh, by the way, the Chinese part of "Qi" was basically filled in by that person...

I knew that I should make my image a little bit taller.

"What do you think of this song?" Xue You tried to keep his expression simple so that there would be no ambiguity in the translation process, "Is there really no problem?"

"Let me be honest, this song is closer to thinker's orientation," Song Minho verified Seol Yoo's implication, "but I don't reject this either."

Making the music you like is the wish of many people, but how can it be so easy to do whatever you want?Not to mention anything else, making a work that satisfies everyone is already beyond Song Minho's upper limit of ability. Since Zheng Zhiyong intends, Song Minho has no reason not to cooperate.

"Change the rap part to Korean, I have a little idea."

"The person who wrote the lyrics is an old friend of mine. He must be very happy when I go back and tell him about it." Xue You said.

"Let him watch the next episode?" Unexpectedly, the singer in front of me who is ten years older than me and became popular by throwing jokes is almost all bitter and not very good. There is also a singer who made new things with his friends when.Song Minho looked at Xueyou, silently thinking whether he would be like him if he had a bad life.

Probably not, I don't know how to perform.

Xue You didn't know what Song Minho was thinking, he remembered the pain of being hanged and beaten by Zheng Zhiyong for singing "Cowardly". "Definitely don't watch this episode," he said.

Even if you put on an appearance of "I sing very well, but not many people know how to appreciate it", there is no way to hide the truth from these Korean singers with rich stage experience.If you can't sing well, then admit it.

Zheng Zhiyong didn't really have any important things to do when he went out, he just hosted the rehearsal from the beginning to the end, and now his physical strength is a bit weak, so he went back to his waiting room, lay flat on the sofa and pinched himself Waist and leg, I asked Fang Jihe for drinks and biscuits to add sugar, and Zheng Zhiyong gradually recovered.He is not a person who cannot bear hardships. After going to college, he first studied and then taught music, which is considered fulfilling, but it is rare to be busy all night. In terms of "endurance", he is better than Zico There is a lot of difference in professional artists.

After resting until he felt that he was not so spiritless, Zheng Zhiyong went to inquire about the situation of his friends.

"What's the problem? We didn't take the translation less because of you." Fang Jihe felt that Zheng Zhiyong overestimated the impact of the language barrier, "The next recording will be in July, and there is still a long time. You might as well think Think about what will happen after you go back."

That's right, Zheng Zhiyong has no ambitions for the show "Let's Fight Idol".
