Chapter 183 Preface to Lanting(1/2)

Backstage, the brothers who had finished their performances were all sitting in the hall watching the performances of other groups.

Many brothers were stunned when they heard Qi Yi read Jiang Yuan's name.

Because Jiang Yuan was a temporary rescuer, other artists did not know that the replacement artist was Jiang Yuan.

"Jiang Yuan, the song I just sang was written by him." Seeing Zheng Qingyang next to him who looked like he didn't recognize Jiang Yuan, Wang Hu introduced him.

Wang Hu's words successfully attracted Zheng Qingyang's attention.

Just now Zheng Qingyang felt that the song Wang Hu sang today was quite nice. It turned out to be Jiang Yuan's song.

As for Shi Zhongxian, he felt a little more energetic when he saw Jiang Yuan appear.

He looks forward to every performance Jiang Yuan performs in "Love Song Concert", and now he has even begun to think about the possibility of collaborating with Jiang Yuan.

Under the enthusiastic cheers of the audience, Jiang Yuan appeared on the stage wearing a loose ink white shirt and black trousers.

The hairstyle is combed into a three-quarter shape, a simple style, but extremely eye-catching.

"so hot!"

"Jiang Yuan's appearance is indeed too superior."

“This look is so pretty!”

Before the performance even started, the audience was stunned by Jiang Yuan's appearance.

On the stage, Jiang Yuan confirmed the position of the camera and signaled to the staff that he was ready.

Then the stage lights went out, and a few seconds later, blue lights filled the stage along with the prelude.

The prelude uses Erhu as the main melody, supplemented by piano, string music, bass and other artistic conceptions, slowly outlining an antique and melodious charm.

The big screen behind the stage also changed into the shape of yellow rice paper at this time, and the title of the song - "Preface to Orchid Pavilion" was written on it with ink pen.

Just the prelude triggered a certain degree of discussion among the artists backstage.

"Well, it turns out he's not a rock singer?" Zheng Qingyang was a little surprised.

"The erhu and piano are so well integrated. I never thought it could be used like this. I just felt it right away."

"The title of the song "Lanting Preface" refers to the one written by Wang Xizhi, right? Is this going to be a Chinese-style song?"

"He sings very well, and the song "Mortal Song" has a bit of a Chinese style feel."

The brothers discussed a lot. The music and culture of this parallel world are also developing. Chinese style music naturally already exists. It is not Jiang Yuan's turn to open up.

It's just that there are not many excellent works in this genre, and most of the tracks labeled as ancient Chinese style are just piling up rhetoric.

Therefore, Jiang Yuan brought an original Chinese-style song to the first stage of "Breaking Through the Troubles", which is considered unique.

Just a prelude raised the expectations of many brothers backstage.

"When I read the calligraphy in Orchid Pavilion, my writing is like flowing clouds and flowing water."

"The door is pushed open under the moon, and my heart is as careful as your footsteps."

Jiang Yuan's singing began. His singing voice was soft and delicate but also had a certain degree of strength, just like the lyrics written with a calligraphy pen on the big screen behind him, which was as powerful as a startling dragon.

"If you are too busy, it is easy to expand the thousand-year-old monument, but it is difficult to expand your beauty."

"There is no real trace, who can I give it to sincerely?"

Jiang Yuan balanced his skills and emotions, immersed himself in the music, and performed it for the audience, like a smooth and rhythmic calligraphy, or a free and unrestrained landscape painting.

The audience in the audience also had high expectations for Jiang Yuan.

I was expecting Jiang Yuan to sing a rock song that would explode the scene, or a moving and affectionate love song, but I didn’t expect Jiang Yuan to sing a Chinese-style work.

It is expected that the misalignment did not occur.

The lyrics written in calligraphy on the screen, combined with Jiang Yuan's singing, fully allowed the audience to appreciate the beauty of Chinese characters.

Not only were the expectations not misplaced, they were even exceeded, with unexpected surprises.

"The reed flute is playing, and there are a few plates of rice wine and side dishes."

"The afterglow of the setting sun is as drunk as your shyness"

Under the illumination of the lights, Jiang Yuan looks like a poet singing verses in a low voice. The words rise and fall with the music, which is touching.

The stage design consisted of simple lighting and calligraphy lyrics on the big screen behind it, but it successfully outlined various scenes in the minds of the audience.

Backstage, Shi Zhongxian listened to Jiang Yuan's singing with an astonished expression on his face. Jiang Yuan's performance once again exceeded his imagination.

Chinese style is also a style that he has always wanted to try. He usually reads some books related to Chinese culture when he has nothing to do.

I can certainly appreciate the beauty of the song "Lanting Preface".

The lyrics of the whole song are not just a pile of rhetoric like most songs that flaunt Chinese style. The song has something to say.

Moreover, the lyrics seem to be based on ancient rhymes, which are natural and charming.

Except for Shi Zhongxian, everyone else was also a little surprised by Jiang Yuan's singing.

"This word is written very well!"

"The lyrics and melody are well combined."

Zheng Qingyang was also very happy to hear it and gave a high praise directly, "Finally another excellent Chinese-style work has come out."

Then he looked at Wang Hu and said, "Let's introduce them later. Maybe we can work together if we have a chance."

Wang Hu was also stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Zheng Qingyang would rate him so highly and even think about cooperation.

In fact, Wang Hu also had the idea of ​​​​cooperating with Jiang Yuan.

Based on Wang Hu's long-term observation, he felt that Jiang Yuan could be said to be a big-legged character when he appeared in the show "Breaking Through Troubles".

His popularity and traffic are not low. In addition to his strong business ability and creative ability, needless to say, he can still make a mark every time he performs on stage.

The most important thing is that Wang Hu feels that if he and Jiang Yuan collaborate on a rock stage, it will definitely be a big hit.

Unexpectedly, a big-time competitor would appear right now.

"It's easy to copy the original, but the fragrance of the ink will never fade away and leave a lingering flavor with you."

"Who did the line of cinnabar circle?"

Jiang Yuan sang immersedly. He had been trained by the professor before and he already knew how to sing this song.

At this time, Jiang Yuan also showed his best performance on the stage.

When the song reached the chorus, Jiang Yuan took two steps forward.

"It has nothing to do with Fengyue, I am waiting for your reply"

"With a stroke of pen, there are thousands of waves on the shore..."

During the chorus part, the audience was immersed in Jiang Yuan's singing.

Looking at the lyrics, the song lingers in the audience's mind, dragging the audience's mind into the artistic conception of the song.

In the waiting room backstage, a brother who had not yet come on stage was enjoying Jiang Yuan's singing.

His name is Zhang Xian, and he is a inheritor of Peking Opera. One of the purposes of being invited to "Wandering Through Troubles" this time is to promote Peking Opera and traditional culture to make more people aware of it.

Zhang Xian is also very fond of Chinese-style works such as "Lanting Preface", which is full of ancient charm.

After so many performances, it was the only song that he enjoyed listening to so much.

At the same time, it also gave Zhang Xian the idea to communicate more with Jiang Yuan backstage later.

As soon as the chorus finished singing, Zhang Xian was waiting for the next part of the song to sound, but his eyes suddenly widened.

On the stage, after Jiang Yuan finished singing the chorus, he paused briefly and then changed the tune.

I saw Jiang Yuan lift Yun's hand, start walking on the stage, and show off his dramatic voice.

"It has nothing to do with Fengyue. I am waiting for your reply,

The waves on the shore are thousands of times..."

Being proficient in drama is obviously not for nothing.

As soon as it was released, it was immediately used in the song "Lanting Preface".

Jiang Yuan's original plan was to learn a little bit about this opera. Although it was not so authentic, it could still be used.

After using the skill "Drama Mastery" through the system, there is no need to use unorthodox singing.

After developing this skill, Jiang Yuan even went to learn the movements when singing, and did some intensive training. Now that he matched it with the authentic opera tune, he looked pretty decent.

The same lyrics in the chorus are sung again in a dramatic style, giving it a unique charm.

This arrangement obviously exceeded the expectations of the audience.

Big beads and small beads falling on the jade plate, can only be described as stunning!

In the waiting room, Zhang Xian looked at Jiang Yuan's movements and stood up from his seat.

He listened to Jiang Yuan's singing and looked at Jiang Yuan's movements. It was clear that he was singing with a small voice in the female role. Although his movements were not very skillful, they were still decent.

The most important thing is that Zhang Xian did not expect to see such a performance on the first stage of "Beyond the Troubles", and he immediately wanted to make Jiang Yuan his confidant.
