Entertainment: My singing can add points to my attributes

Chapter 157 Not Chinese enough? "East Wind Break" is coming!
Compared to the dark clouds at Xingsha TV, when the ratings for the first episode of the third season of "The King of Love Song" came out, the entire Deep Blue TV station was shrouded in excitement.

Breaking 9% ratings.

This is almost the best launch result for a variety show in the entertainment industry.

This made the executives of Deep Blue TV, who were worried before and uneasy because of the cooperation between Xingsha TV and Lin Xi, relieved.

Yao Yuan and He Yin also breathed a sigh of relief.

After Lin Xi's incident, if the ratings for the premiere of "The King of Love Songs" are so low, life will be difficult for the two of them.

"Boss, are we safely through the crisis?"

He Yin has already rushed back from Star City.

In the past few days, he had been waiting for Lin Xi's appearance at the door of Lin Xi's company like a paparazzi, which was really frustrating him.

He is still a high-level person at Deep Blue Satellite TV, so how can he be so angry?

In the past, no matter whether they were big or small celebrities, when they came to Deep Blue TV Station, they would always be polite and polite to him even if they didn't ask for help.

"Not yet. Far from safe."

Yao Yuan said lightly.

But the happiness in his tone could not be hidden, and it was obvious that he was in a very good mood now.

Who would have thought that Lin Xi's "King of Love Songs" not only brought strong pressure to his program, but also gave him.

"Of course, we're off to a very good start."

Yao Yuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, showing his inner complacency.

"Isn't that right? The first episode's ratings exceeded 9%, breaking the record for variety shows. Even in the second season of our "The King of Love Songs", I remember the premiere ratings were only 5%, right?"

He Yin also smiled heartily and echoed.

Yao Yuan smiled and said: "The first broadcast ratings do not represent future ratings. Our ratings must remain at this level throughout the season, or even increase along the way."

Yao Yuan is confident in his program.

The third season of "The King of Love Songs" was carefully created to ensure that the quality of each subsequent issue will not be bad.

According to normal rules, subsequent ratings will definitely increase!

"However, you should continue to work on the plan we made. What if it comes in handy later?" Yao Yuan asked.

Although he was confident, he decided to add another layer of insurance.Trample 'Lin Xi' and the enemy station's new program 'Chinese Style' together to death.

This way, he can really sit back and relax.

"The King of Love Songs" is no longer threatening.

Since Lin Xi refuses to cooperate well with them and has become extremely swollen, it should be destroyed.

For this reason, Yao Yuan inquired about some inside information from the program team on the day of the recording of "Chinese Style".

One of the most important keywords, or a key person - Zhou Qianqian!

This famous contemporary female poet, a writer with a high status in the literary world, seemed to have a very unpleasant quarrel with Lin Xi backstage during the recording of the program, and they finally broke up.

Yao Yuan didn't know the specific situation.

But after he quickly contacted Zhou Qianqian, he roughly understood the situation.

To put it simply, Zhou Qianqian felt that Lin Xi was superficial and not worthy of being in the classical Chinese cultural circle; and Lin Xi slapped Zhou Qianqian in the face openly, and the two became mortal enemies.

So Yao Yuan came up with a plan.

Let He Yin contact Zhou Qianqian to discuss and plan how to expose Lin Xi's 'true face' and pull him down from the altar!
Deep Blue TV is responsible for providing the platform and providing advice, while Zhou Qianqian is responsible for contacting a group of 'experts'.

……

……

a few days later.

A few days after the ratings of "The King of Love Songs" exploded, Deep Blue TV made another big move.

One of their famous interview programs actually no longer invites people with topics and gimmicks such as singers, actors, and sports stars in the entertainment industry.

Instead, we invited several famous writers and poets in the literary world!
As well as some musicians who study Chinese classical music.

The theme of their program this time is to talk about the recently popular 'Chinese Style'.

of course.

Naturally, Deep Blue TV does not want to increase the reputation of Xingsha TV Station and help advertise for free.

As the two TV stations are bitter rivals, no one can be so generous.

The reason why Deep Blue Satellite TV talks about "Chinese Style" in this interview program is exactly the opposite. It is because it wants to hack Xingsha TV's new variety show "Chinese Style".

Or to be more specific, he wanted to take advantage of Lin Xi!

This group of writers, poets, and classical music researchers attacked Lin Xi from several angles.

The first point is that Lin Xi's lyrics are not very good.

Although the lyrics of "Hair Like Snow" have been praised to the sky on the Internet, and there are all kinds of flatterers, this group of writers and poets have expressed different views, believing that Lin Xi has been praised too much on the Internet.

They're not saying that the lyrics of this song are bad, it's just that it's not that mythical.

It's above average, far from the top.

The reason is that some lyrics are too straightforward, not subtle enough, and do not conform to the elegance of Chinese classical poetry.

They believed that the lyrics of this song could be written better, but Lin Xi made great compromises to the market in order to capture the market and capture the psychology of most listeners.

So they felt that this was a song that was biased towards 'kitsch' and not 'elegant' enough.

To put it more seriously, many parts of the lyrics tend to be slobbery and trivial!

To sum up, they feel that the lyrics of "Hair Like Snow" cannot be said to be bad, they are quite good.

But it definitely cannot reach the heights that people on the Internet are touting, such as being a god, the most beautiful poem in the literary world in recent years, etc., it is too much!
As soon as this argument came out.

Of course, it attracted criticism from countless fans who loved "Hair Like Snow". For example, teacher Deng Yangmao from Incheon Middle School wrote an essay of nearly [-] words in support of "Hair Like Snow".

Explain why he thinks the lyrics of "Fat Like Snow" are well written and not only not kitsch, but also very elegant.

In his view, not all Chinese classical culture is graceful.In addition to elegance, there is also a strong, straightforward and bold style.

Moreover, Chinese-style songs are not really written about ancient prose or poetry, but are combined with modern times. Lin Xi's "Hair is Like Snow" is of great significance to the spread of Chinese classical culture and will have a very high historical status.

The so-called compromise with the market simply does not hold water.

Deng Yangmao feels that right now we need pioneers like Lin Xi to step forward and open up the market for Chinese classical poetry!

but.

There are many fans like Deng Yangmao who support Lin Xi.

However, there are also a small number of self-proclaimed intellectuals, or superior dogs who feel that "everyone is sober and I am alone drunk", and think that most people like "Hair is Like Snow", so they will sing the opposite tune and follow the example of several "Brothers" in the interview. At the same time, all kinds of disparagements were made to "Fair Like Snow".

……

Except for the lyrics.The second point of attack on Lin Xi in the talk show was that the song "Hair Like Snow" was too Western!
I think this is simply a 'pseudo-Chinese style' song.

In fact, this can be regarded as an 'r&b' style song in nature!

Even though many Chinese classical instruments are used as the soundtrack, and the tone is Gong Shangjiao Zhengyu, this is all superficial, just a shell.

The core thing is to play the Western style!
Therefore, this cannot be regarded as 'Chinese style' at all.

Instead, they are changing the concept secretly and insulting Chinese classical music!

This 'crime' is very serious.

I have to admit that these players are very good at finding angles, or Yao Yuan is very good at finding angles.

He is a good person when it comes to programs, and he is even better when it comes to fighting.

If Lin Xi is convicted of this crime, then Lin Xi will fall directly from the man on the Chinese Wind God Seat into the abyss and become a sinner.

The problem is much more serious than the lyrics.

After all, this is equivalent to being a 'traitor' and surrendering to the enemy!

But a pity.

Although this argument aroused the approval of a small number of people, the vast majority of real listeners scoffed at this criticism.

The term "Chinese style" was never really coined based on the ancient rhythm.

Putting 'ancient rhyme' into modern times, regardless of whether it is suitable or not, many ancient rhymes cannot be examined and restored to this day.

Even if it is restored, modern people may not be able to understand many of the pronunciations and rhythms.

Therefore, before Lin Xi wrote "Fair Like Snow", although the original Chinese style circle would be closer to the ancient style, it would also use a lot of modern music theory knowledge.

But no one has ever combined it so perfectly and so smoothly like Lin Xi.

Others, even the top few in the Chinese-style music circle, always create songs that are somewhat alien to each other.

Therefore, after these "brick artists" questioned Lin Xi on the show, many people in the Chinese style music circle came forward to speak for Lin Xi.

Even Wang Jiacheng and He Feihong, two singers who also participated in the competition and were considered Lin Xi's "enemies", quickly came to support Lin Xi.

They all addressed Lin Xi directly as 'Teacher Lin'.

They said that "Fat Like Snow" was a great inspiration to them. After a few simple chats with Teacher Lin, they benefited a lot and their understanding of Chinese style music was greatly improved.

In the next competition, they will bring better Chinese style music, so please look forward to it.

As such.

Basically, all the musicians with status and reputation in the "Chinese style" circle belong to Lin Xi.

It's not that Lin Xi is very popular, or that these musicians have always flattered Lin Xi.

This is simply not possible.

There was only one reason for them to stand up and speak for Lin Xi.

They all recognized the song "Hair Like Snow" and felt that this song was indeed a very high-quality song. It also opened a door to the Chinese style of niche music, allowing all creators in the circle to They all benefited a lot and were greatly inspired.

Nowadays, a group of people who do not belong to the Chinese style circle, the so-called "brick masters", come out to make money and gain popularity, and use their standards to criticize what is "authentic Chinese style".

Of course people who really know their stuff can’t stand it.

just.

There was obviously someone behind this incident who was trying to keep Lin Xi in the dark.

Even though there are so many musicians in the Chinese music circle standing up for Lin Xi.

However, in the major comment sections, you can still see a lot of accusations that Lin Xi is a "Chinese style sinner", "yellow skin and white heart" and so on.

……

……

"Lin Xi, you don't need to use the comments of those keyboard warriors and black men on the Internet. Just stick to your own style."

Xingsha TV.

The recording scene of the second season of "Chinese Style".

Director Xie Kui found Lin Xi and said worriedly.

Of course he watched the recent interview program on Deep Blue Satellite TV where Lin Xi was deliberately darkened.

He also knows very well that most of the comments about Lin Xi on the Internet are positive. Real fans will not hate or question a piece of really good music.

But even if there is a small group of people with ulterior motives who deliberately go against the grain, the mentality of artistic creators can easily be affected.

Xie Kui is now very afraid that Lin Xi's mentality will be affected.

If Lin Xi really cared about these comments on the Internet.

We need to chew on words, pursue harsh and difficult-to-pronounce lyrics, pursue the so-called true ancient charm in arrangement and melody, and give up on integrating classical instruments with modern instruments...

But he fell into the enemy's trick.

Then the last issue's "Hair Like Snow" will become the last song, and the quality of the new songs will most likely be greatly compromised.

As for his program, without Lin Xi's 'ace card' and a piece of god-level music that can suppress the audience and become popular on the entire Internet, it would be completely impossible to surpass "The King of Love Songs".

"Thank you, director, for your concern. However, I am still very persuasive. Since there are different voices on the Internet and some people have questions, I can still try my best to respond." Lin Xi said with a smile.

Although Lin Xi seemed to be in a relaxed mood, she seemed not to be affected by the negative comments online.

But Lin Xi's words made Xie Kui's heart skip a beat.

What do you mean?
Did Lin Xi really take those words on the Internet that were obviously used by trolls to set the pace and infiltrate the dark side?

"You...your new song, are you...going to change in the direction those black fans want?" Xie Kui's tone was trembling.

Lin Xi nodded, shook his head again, thought for a moment and said, "Of course it's impossible to completely change what they said. However, you can make a slight change. For example, the lyrics can become a little more tactful, less straightforward, and less so. The so-called superficiality and kitsch; in the arrangement of instruments, we should try to use less modern instruments and more Chinese classical instruments."

Finished!

It's over!

This thought suddenly appeared in Xie Kui's mind, and she felt a little panicked.

Originally, if Lin Xi's talent was to be used normally, Xie Kui felt that there would be no problem at all in writing another song that would shock the entire Internet.

He had absolute confidence in Lin Xi.

However, if Lin Xi chooses to give up his martial arts skills, he will abandon his own strengths.

Then maybe.

"Lin Xi...what's the name of the new song you prepared today?" Xie Kui asked with difficulty after swallowing.

His head was spinning wildly now.

What should he do if the quality of the new song Lin Xi prepared was very unsatisfactory and too awkward?
Should we postpone the recording of the show?
If it needs to be postponed, how many days should it be postponed?
While he was brainstorming crazily, Lin Xi said, "The name of the new song is "East Wind Breaks"."
