Chapter 217 "Chinese Language" Redefines Girl Group Songs(1/2)
Chapter 217 "Chinese" redefines girl group songs
A song sung by the "Chinese" girl group S.H.E. The lyrics were written by Zheng Nan and Shi Rencheng, and the music was composed and arranged by Zheng Nan.
This song has won many awards in the global music scene and is a very suitable song for a girl group.
If S.H.E is classified as a girl group, then they can be said to be the pinnacle of the Chinese music girl group on earth.
It has never been done before, and most likely it will never be done again.
At least given the environment of the Chinese music scene on earth, there is still no girl group that can surpass S.H.E.
The song "Chinese" has a brisk melody and the opening lyrics are a tongue twister, which makes people feel familiar as soon as they hear it.
On the opening stage of the "Rising Star" girl group season, the singing of "Chinese Language" rang out.
As soon as the prelude came out, all the female group trainees at the scene held their breath and listened intently.
The verse of a song embodies the soul of the song and is the key to determine whether a song can become a classic.
However, for a girl group song, the first factor that determines whether the song will be popular is the melody of the chorus.
A catchy and beautiful chorus can make a song resound in the streets and alleys faster.
When the chorus of "Chinese" came out, all the girls present widened their eyes.
“The whole world is learning Chinese.
“Confucius’ words are becoming more and more international.
"Chinese is spoken all over the world.
"What we say will make the world listen carefully..."
As soon as the chorus came out, many people were shocked.
While the chorus of this song is catchy, it also has a strong sense of national pride, and this national pride is a little bit arrogant.
Chinese is one of the most difficult languages to learn in the world.
The five thousand years of Chinese culture have given this language endless heritage.
The beauty of ancient Chinese poetry is the most brilliant treasure of human culture.
People who don't understand Chinese cannot appreciate this magnificence, nor can they see the pinnacle of human culture.
…
Since Fang Xing is only the founder of the girl group Ji, he does not serve as a mentor.
So Tong Fei invited Shen Xiyin back again.
Shen Xiyin's limited group Sky Girls has a two-year limited group contract with Chaoyin Culture.
Therefore, her limited group contract has expired.
Originally, Chaoyin Culture wanted to poach her from her original company, but she didn't agree.
Chaoyin Culture did not arrange another job for her, so she took over the job at Feifan Entertainment and returned to the "Rising Star" girl group season as a re-election mentor.
Therefore, she also participated in the opening show.
She knew in advance that for this season's girl group, the group reward would be a song produced by Fang Xing.
However, she had never heard the song before.
Now, when she heard the song "Chinese", her eyes showed envy.
She envied the group of girl group trainees in the audience, who could get such an excellent song as soon as they formed a group.
They, Sky Girls, have been active for two years and have made a lot of money for Chaoyin culture, but so far they still haven't had a hit song.
However, she could tell that this song "Chinese" was definitely going to be a hit, it just depended on how popular it would be.
Shen Xiyin was thinking in her heart that it would be great if she participated in this season's audition in the audience, so that she could sing Fang Xing's songs.
After the demo of "Chinese" was played.
The 101 female group trainees in the audience started talking quietly:
"This song is so nice. I feel like it will definitely become a hit."
"Does it really matter how you feel? His songs are all popular. I really want to form a band, let me sing this song."
"This song is a bit difficult to sing. It should take a long time to practice."
"It doesn't matter how long I practice, as long as I can sing this song as a group, I can practice for three days and three nights without sleeping."
Among the 101 female group trainees this time, there are many overseas trainees.
Some are from Thailand, Malaysia, and some from the Lion City.
Among them, some of them don't speak Chinese very well and couldn't understand the lyrics when listening to the songs.
"What do the lyrics of this song mean? The melody sounds very nice. What do you think of the lyrics?"
"It's a tongue twister and the lyrics are great."
"Let me form a group. Please, please." Some girls have even begun to pray.
…
End of opening.
Tong Fei announced: "Well, Fang Xing is the initiator of this year's "Tomorrow Star" girl group season, and is also the theme song instructor. However, he does not serve as a mentor. After releasing the theme song "Chinese" for the girl group season,
I’m leaving temporarily.”
The trainees of the girl group in the audience suddenly started to chirp.
"What? Are you leaving after a show?"
"No, can't you stay and train us?"
"At least teach us how to sing group songs first."
"Don't go!"
Tong Fei then announced: "Don't worry, everyone. The first phase of tasks will be released immediately. After the first stage, all trainees must practice singing "Chinese Language".
"There will be a quiz in a week. Instructor Fang Xing will participate in the quiz scoring. The top 9 trainees who score in the quiz will become the first singing group of "Chinese", and "Chinese" will be released simultaneously when the show starts.
"Moreover, instructor Fang Xing will personally help you record songs."
heard the news.
The 101 female group trainees present were all a little excited.
"This means that the nine members of the first choir can sing "Chinese" first when the show starts. After that, the popularity of the nine members of the first choir must be ridiculously high. The number of seats for subsequent groups must be from the first choir.
Out of 9 people."
"If that's the case, wouldn't it mean that the first quiz will determine life or death?"
"No, I'm very slow at learning songs."
"It's even worse for me. I don't speak Chinese very well." The trainee from Malaysia almost cried.
…
Next week.
The trainees of the 101 girl group are all practicing "Chinese" desperately.
The lyrics of this song are very difficult. It is even difficult to read out all the lyrics without stumbling while looking at the teleprompter.
However, the "Chinese" chorus selected in the first quiz is really important.
All the trainees who wanted to join the group worked hard to practice this song, even telling tongue twisters in their sleep.
A week of practice is over.
Fang Xing came to the women's team training camp again and conducted a quiz on 101 women's team trainees.
There are three scoring instructors for this quiz. In addition to Fang Xing, there are Shen Xiyin and the chief director Tong Fei.
However, Fang Xing was the one who really made the decision, while Tong Fei and Shen Xiyin mainly participated in the discussion.
After the program team received "Chinese", they also found a dance teacher to add dance to the song.
Therefore, this quiz, in addition to singing, also relies on dancing.
…
At ten o'clock in the morning, the trainees of the 101 girl group gathered in the quiz hall.
Fang Xing once again came to the quiz hall of "Star of Tomorrow", but he was no longer a trainee, but an instructor.
The quiz is about to begin.
Tong Fei said into the microphone: "We were divided into groups last week, and now we will start taking the quiz according to the groups. The first group is Zhou Xueyan's group."
The first group of seven people came up.
The girl who led the team was pretty and pleasant, and she took the lead in introducing herself: "Hello, instructor, I am Zhou Xueyen from Class A. I am good at vocal music and dance, and I can also play the guzheng. I like Instructor Fang's "Blue and White Porcelain" the most, and I hope I can play the guzheng if I have the opportunity.
