Middle Age: A Leisurely Life in the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 100 "Red Ling"! (ask for the first order)
"Some students in our class know that I actually sing. The purpose of learning opera is to combine opera and pop songs to create a new way of singing. They all laugh at me."

"What are you laughing at?"

"It is said that opera is opera, and pop songs are pop songs. There is a qualitative difference between the two. If they are forcibly grafted, they will be neither fish nor fowl."

"Yawen, isn't it?"

Before Yu Dongqing could speak, Tang Guang who was next to him defended him.

"Isn't the song "Bai Suzhen under the Qingcheng Mountain" written by Teacher Yu a combination of popular songs and Huangmei opera singing?"

"But one of my classmates said it was wrong!" Zhao Yawen looked at Tang Guang who was sitting next to her and retorted: "Bai Suzhen under the Qingcheng Mountain is strictly a Huangmei tune, not a Huangmei opera!"

"Although it is said that Huangmei Opera is the predecessor of Huangmei Opera, after its development in Anhui, it has formed a unique type of opera: Huangmei Opera. Huangmei Opera is spoken in Anqing dialect, and the opera is sung in dialects, while Huangmei Diao is Mandarin, and it is written in Mandarin. It's pop singing!"

This?
Tang Guang didn't do much research on this, and suddenly ran out of words, so he had to turn his attention to Yu Dongqing.

"Yawen, that classmate of yours is quite right." Yu Dongqing said slowly, picking up the boiled mutton.

Ah, this?
Both young people looked at Yu Dongqing with surprised eyes.

"However, this does not mean that the two cannot be combined. In theory, I won't talk about it. How about I sing you another song?"

"Okay."

Zhao Yawen immediately straightened her waist and concentrated her attention.

"But my broken voice is not suitable for singing this type of song."

Yu Dongqing smirked, drank tea to moisten her throat, and then sang softly.

play one fold water sleeve rise and fall

Sing joys and sorrows

Fans open and close gongs and drums and silent
"Red Ling"!
Zhao Yawen listened quietly.

It is the ancient song that Mr. Yu said.

The lyrics are related to singing, but the tune is indeed a typical pop singing style.

Very nice.

At the climax in the middle of singing, Yu Dongqing suddenly sang again, and it turned out to be a Peking opera singing.

The people in the audience walk by without seeing the old color
People on stage sing heartbreak farewell song

Love words are hard to write, she sings to be reconciled with blood
Who is the guest when the curtain starts and the curtain ends

what……

The combination of the two is so natural!
Zhao Yawen was shocked immediately.

But the last line of dialogue made her completely dumbfounded.

I saw Yu Dongqing made an orchid finger movement with both hands, and said to Zhao Yawen:
Feeling regretful and earnest, looking back is an illusion, who is on the other side...

Oh my God
This chanting seems not to be a Beijing opera, but a Kunqu opera!

Yes, kunqu chanting!

Zhao Yawen fell into shock, and Tang Guang next to him showed envy on his face.

good song
Yawen got another good song!
Alas, other people's luck is better than their own.

Zhao Yawen woke up from the shock at this moment and asked eagerly.

"Teacher Yu, what's the name of this song, can I sing it?"

Yu Dongqing shook her head after hearing this.

"I will not make this song public for the time being. As for you, the task is to study hard. Let's talk about it later."

Zhao Yawen was slightly disappointed after hearing this.

But cheer up soon.

Since Mr. Yu will not release this song for the time being, it means that as long as I study hard and get his approval, I will still have the opportunity to sing this song in the future!
Thinking of this, Zhao Yawen hurriedly stated: "Teacher Yu, I will definitely study hard!"

Yu Dongqing just nodded and said nothing.

Tang Guang, who was next to him, seemed to be talking about Zhao Yawen's affairs, and he hadn't mentioned his own until now. He quickly poured beer into Yu Dongqing's wine glass, sipped a glass respectfully, and then asked:

"Ms. Yu, the company is making an album for me, can you check it out for me and listen to your opinion?"

Yu Dongqing knew that the company was making an album for Tang Guang. Today, these two young people braved the wind and snow and waited for such a long time. Although it was a New Year greeting for themselves, there must be other things.

Hearing what Tang Guang said now, he immediately understood.

Sure enough.

"Did you bring the demo? I'll go back and listen to it." Yu Dongqing said.

"Bring it, bring it!" Tang Guang was overjoyed when he heard that, and quickly took out a USB flash drive and handed it to him.

"Okay, I'll give you an answer after listening." Yu Dongqing took it and put it in his pocket.

Seeing that things were settled, Tang Guang's mood was obviously elevated, and he poured wine for Yu Dongqing again and again, and he himself was drunk in the end.

"Mr. Yu this time, really, really please, give me some advice, I really want to sing well."

"Tang Guang, why do you sing rock and roll? It's obviously a niche music." Yu Dongqing laughed.

"Because I like it!" Tang Guang said firmly.

"The first time I came into contact with rock music was when I was about four or five years old. At that time, in the big yard where I lived, there were some young people in their 20s who had just started working. Some of them bought tape recorders, cassettes and so on. There is a vinyl record player, and there are many records, some of which are Hong Kong and Taiwan songs, and some European and American songs.

"At that time, I was young, and I didn't know what rock and roll was. Anyway, I knew that some songs were more exciting. Later, when I grew up, I saw a bunch of people playing various instruments on the stage on TV. I thought it was cool, and the music It’s very dynamic, and I gradually realized that it’s called rock music.”

Maybe it was because of drinking, he was not usually talkative, but Tang Guang suddenly started talking, and Yu Dongqing listened quietly.

"Later, I heard rock and roll once, which was by the Hua Bangzi band. In my memory, if I used an idiom to describe it, it was like a shocking stone, like five thunders crashing on the top, more like a landslide and tsunami, or like a prehistoric force manifesting in front of my eyes: thunder, lightning, rolling Come. The mountains roar, the tsunami suddenly arrives, and the faces presented by me and thousands of spectators can only be described by words such as stunned, chaotic, and pale."

"It turns out that music can also be so wild, so brutal, so heart-wrenching, so domineering, so domineering, so unruly, so self-willed, so out of nowhere! So we fell in love with rock music next. "

"Later I became obsessed with rock and roll, and I had a good voice. When I was in high school, I thought about applying for a music school, but my family didn't allow me. After I went to college, I also formed a band and wrote songs. After graduating from college, I came with my girlfriend. When I arrived in Yanjing, I vowed to make a career out of it.”

"But it's not that easy. I took my girlfriend and wandered in bars, underground karaoke halls, earning a lot of money every day; I was worried that my job would not be stable, and I would lose my job at any time without a bar contract; I was not afraid of your jokes, and I also faced many temptations such as DU products."

"As a result, it took eight years."

Zhao Yawen listened quietly, suddenly she was full of sympathy for this young man who was usually not good at speaking. She had a lot of contact with Tang Guang, and she thought she knew him well, but in fact she didn't know him at all.

I didn't expect him to suffer so much.

Although she is also a singer, her experience is much simpler and even luckier.

Although he only went to a college, but with his beautiful appearance and clear and sweet voice, he quickly stood out in an elective and signed a contract with Jinye.

Although there is no big hit now, but basically there is not much suffering.

Tang Guang was silent for a while, then looked at Yu Dongqing again: "Mr. Yu, I really appreciate you. If it wasn't for you, I would not be in Yanjing now, and I would have returned to my hometown."

"Oh?"

"The night before I was notified by the company to audition for singing, I just broke up with my girlfriend, and it rained heavily that night."

Tang Guang blushed, holding a wine glass in his hand, lost in memory.
