Just when Deng Yangmao felt a little worried and regretful about Lin Xi's choice, the prelude of "East Wind Break" had already sounded.

"The prelude is as good as ever, with a sense of separation and sorrow in it."

This thought came to Deng Yangmao's mind.

Lin Xi's skills in prelude can be said to be extremely proficient, and she deserves to be No. 1.

From the "Qili Xiang" in the last show to last week's "Hair Like Snow", the intro is enough to make a god, and it is difficult to find anyone who can compare with it in the Chinese music world.

The intro of today's new song is not as stunning as the previous two songs, but it is full of charm.

For a literati like Deng Yangmao, he can be very keenly aware of the separation and sadness in it, and the emotional rendering is extremely good, which is an effect that ordinary songs cannot achieve.

but.

Next, when the song officially started, Deng Yangmaocai's eyes widened and he sat up straight without knowing it.

seem……

It was somewhat similar to what he imagined. Lin Xi's choice in this issue did seem to be confused by the rumors on the Internet and the comments of those so-called "brick experts"; however, it was also different from what he imagined. It seems completely different!
Because Lin Xi did not repeat the 'broad road' he opened in the previous issue, but he also did not go back to the old road.

More like... another broad road has been opened up?
In other words, is the original broad road continued to be widened?
"A lamp of sorrow, standing alone at the window~
I'm behind the door, pretending that you haven't left yet~
It feels like revisiting an old place, and the full moon makes me feel even more lonely~
The candlelight that wakes me up in the middle of the night cannot bear to criticize me~"

It is obvious that the guzheng accompaniment is much richer this time than the Chinese classical flavor of "Hair Like Snow". Although there are also a small number of Western instruments in the musical instruments, the overall sound is completely Chinese classical instruments.

Moreover, it also complies with the most basic laws of Chinese style and completely uses "Gong Shang Jiao Zheng Yu".

Maybe it's a little weaker than "Hair Like Snow" in terms of ear-catching and melody...

wrong.

It shouldn't be said that it is weak, but more accurately, it is 'lighter'!
Yes, compared to the simplicity and clarity of "Hair Like Snow", it can catch the audience's ears at once, and almost no one will find it unpleasant.

The melody of "East Wind Breaks" will seem quite 'light' at the beginning.

But it is precisely because of this indifference that the concept and style of this song immediately 'lifted up'.

While it sounds good, there is also a touch of separation that lingers in the hearts of the listeners.

But what shocked Deng Yangmao was that the melody was only secondary.

What he paid more attention to was the lyrics of the song "East Wind Breaks"!

As a Chinese teacher, Deng Yangmao, who has an in-depth study of classical literature and has written many poems, instantly grasped some of the key information of these lyrics.

'Light', 'door', 'moon', 'candle'...

Just a few lyrics and the words used almost made Deng Yangmao immersed in it instantly.

This is the most commonly used and repeatedly mentioned word by ancient Chinese poets and poets.

Lin Xi's use of these words at this moment instantly made the song full of classical charm.

This is completely different from "Hair Like Snow".

"What a strong literary foundation."

Deng Yangmao sighed secretly in his heart.

If the whole song was in this style, the so-called "bricks" invited by Deep Blue TV would be slapped in the face.

Because they said that Lin Xi's lyrics were not clever enough, not graceful enough, and not classical enough.

Lin Xi's new song "East Wind Breaks" only uses one opening part to embody gracefulness, classicism, and brilliance.

"I just don't know if the entire lyrics can maintain this key, and whether the level can be maintained until the end."

Deng Yangmao thought secretly.

Lin Xi continued to sing on the TV.

"A pot of wandering, wandering around the world is hard to swallow~
After you left, the wine warmed my memories and I missed you~
Water flows eastward, how can time be stolen~
The flower blooms and matures once, but I missed it~"

Hearing this, Deng Yangmao was not only surprised and sighed, but also no longer doubted whether the new song "Dongfeng Break" would be as good as it was before it ended.

Pot, end of the world, wine, longing, flowers... The use of these words once again highlights the charm of Chinese classical music, and at the same time, the style and charm of the entire song are also completely formed.

As expected, it was not what Deng Yangmao expected.

The chorus that follows is not inferior at all.

At the same time, it also confirmed what he explained to his daughter at the beginning.

The so-called "Dongfeng Po" is a pipa song that was very popular in ancient times and few people knew about it. Only a few poets would use it as the name of their ci brand to write lyrics.

Because almost no famous poems have been handed down, the name "Dongfeng Po" is almost unknown in modern times. It is only recorded in some ancient books.

In the chorus, Lin Xi pointed out the origin of the lyrics in the first sentence.

And the middle interlude is entirely accompanied by pipa and harp. This section is completely the most orthodox Chinese style.

"Who is playing the song Dongfeng Po on the pipa~
Time peels off the wall and I see my childhood~
I still remember that we were still very young~
But now the faint sound of the piano is heard, and you haven’t heard my waiting~"

"Who is playing the song Dongfeng Po on the pipa~
I can see through the ending of Maple Leaf Colored Story~
I will lead you through the ancient path outside the fence~
Even the breakup is silent in the years of wild smoke and grass~"

The chorus is the sublimation and theme of the entire song, and also highlights the separation and sorrow that the song wants to express.

Nowadays, the sound of the piano is so long, but you can’t hear my waiting.

but.

Although the melody in the chorus is better and more catchy.

But in comparison, Deng Yangmao likes the previous verse part more in terms of lyrics!

"Wandering around the world is hard to swallow, the wine is warm and I miss you so much... Lin Xi, Lin Xi, your choice of words and sentences is really amazing! In today's modern world, it is really... rare to be able to write such a sentence full of classical charm!"

Deng Yangmao admired him sincerely.

Last week's "Hair Like Snow" made him feel powerful. There were many beautiful sentences in it that he thought he couldn't write. He felt that Lin Xi was better than him in terms of lyric writing skills.

But today's song "East Wind Breaks" made him feel admired!

He couldn't write such words now, and even in the future, no matter how long it took, he felt that it would be difficult for him to write them.

"Lin Xi is going to make herself completely invincible this time!"

"No matter who he is in the literary world, he will never be able to find fault with him again."

Whether it's lyrics, arrangement, or melody, "Dongfeng Po" is invincible.

Give the simplest example.

The two songs "Hair Like Snow" and "East Wind Breaks" both use an image - east flowing water.

But the former is used like this: Prosperity is like three thousand east flowing water, I only take a scoop of love to understand.

Such words and phrases are neither beautiful nor subtle, and will make people gasp in admiration after hearing them.

However, the so-called experts at Deep Blue TV were very critical, saying that the lyrics were too modern, too straightforward, kitsch, and not graceful enough. They were all just to please the market and could be written better.As a result, this time "East Wind Breaks" is really written better: How can time be stolen when water flows eastward, and flowers bloom and mature once, but I missed it!
No longer straightforward, no longer expressing strong feelings and love.

Not only is it euphemistic, but it is also full of hazy beauty, and even uses abstract metaphors.

After listening to it, you will feel a sense of loss, and you can savor it carefully and slowly.

……

For another example, the artistic conception of the lyrics of "Hair is Like Snow" is very complete, and the words, sentences, and rhetorical techniques used are all excellent, and it can be called a masterpiece.

But the theme of love runs throughout the song and is mentioned many times.

What about "East Wind Breaks"?

The sorrow and regret of the whole song are vividly expressed on the page. Not to mention the literary level of Deng Yangmao and his daughter, anyone with a junior high school diploma can hear the emotions expressed in this song.

However, Lin Xi never described the emotions she wanted to express from a positive perspective.

Either "after you left" or "you haven't heard of it".

This sense of loneliness in reminiscing about the past is vivid and vivid without being pretentious.

Just imagine, if words such as "Don't leave", "Don't leave me" and "Come back soon" appear in the lyrics, the graceful feeling will disappear instantly.

This is exactly the method commonly used in Chinese classical literature.

Just like praising a beauty, the word "beauty" will never appear directly in classical poetry.The word "beauty" is not used, but beauty is reflected all the time, and it is lifelike. This is the most brilliant thing about classical literature.

Lin Xi completely achieved it in "East Wind Breaks".

This made Deng Yangmao suddenly think again. He first met Lin Xi because of the picturesque but extremely sweet song "Qili Xiang".

This is a 'love letter' written by Lin Xi to her girlfriend Bai Lu.

This tactful approach has also begun to be used.

The whole song does not say a word "I love you" or "I like you", but it describes love to the extreme.

"This song "East Wind Breaks" is so nice, isn't it?"

Deng Huanhuan came to her senses first and couldn't help but sigh. Then she didn't care about watching the rest of the program and quickly searched the Internet. "I'll see if anyone has recorded this song on the Internet. I want to do it again." Listen to it several times!”

Deng Yangmao didn't stop him either.

Such a good song is indeed worth listening to again and again.

Just like the ancient poets, when they hear a wonderful poem, they want to understand it.

……

……

Deep Blue TV.

Yao Yuan also immediately watched the second episode of "Chinese Style".

Know yourself and know your enemy, you will be victorious in all battles.

Anyway, the ratings base of a nationally broadcast variety show like theirs is too broad, and the results will not change just because of him.

Even if the ratings of the second episode of "Chinese Style" are still only 1%, his personal viewing contribution is just a drop of water in the ocean and will not affect anything at all.

Yao Yuan frowned slightly while watching the previous part of the program.

His own program is striving for excellence and strives to ensure that the quality of subsequent programs will not be lower than the quality of the first broadcast.

But I didn’t expect that the one next door was not inferior to him at all in terms of quality control.

In other words... far more than him!

The quality of this issue of "Chinese Style" has been greatly improved compared to the first issue last week!

However, Yao Yuan was still calm and indifferent at this time.

It wasn't until Lin Xi came on the scene at the end and brought a new song "East Wind Breaks". After listening to it, Yao Yuan couldn't calm down.

After browsing the comments on major websites on the Internet, Yao Yuan felt that something was wrong.

"Awesome! Lin Xi is indeed Lin Xi. I didn't let my whole week of anticipation be in vain!"

"I originally thought that "Fair Like Snow" was the ceiling for Chinese-style songs, but I didn't expect that there was another one on the ceiling!"

"The person above said it wrong. Although I also like "Fair Like Snow" very much, in comparison, "East Wind Break" is obviously at a higher level and is the ceiling of true Chinese style."

"Xingsha Satellite TV has done so many evil things in the past and filmed so many stupid dramas and garbage variety shows, but this year's "Chinese Style" has offset its past evils. So Chinese style can be so good?"

"Haha, where is the Zhuan family who made a lot of nonsense on the Internet two days ago, saying that Lin Xi's Chinese style is not orthodox enough and does not suit him? Where is he now? Come out and take a few steps!"

"The most awesome thing about Lin Xi is here. Not only is his creative talent overflowing, it can be seen with the naked eye. Moreover, he also specializes in treating all kinds of dissatisfaction! There is no one he can't do, only you can't think of it!"

"I just don't understand, why would anyone dare to offend Lin Xi? Wang Xiaokai, Hua Qianfan, and those few people in the rap circle, aren't these lessons obvious enough?"

"Can anyone kindly send me the audio resource of "Dongfeng Po"? I feel like I can listen to this song on repeat for a year!"

"It's over, I can't sleep tonight. I'm really looking forward to next week's "Chinese Wind". What kind of new song will Lin Xi bring!"

Flicking through the comment sections, Yao Yuan's right eyelid began to twitch unknowingly.

He seems...self-defeating?

Several experts from the literary circle were invited to find faults and criticize Lin Xi, with the purpose of damaging the reputation of the enemy station and dragging Lin Xi down from the altar.

Who knows the result, but because of the suggestions of these "brick masters", Lin Xi burst out with greater energy and created a song that was more "Chinese style" and more high-end!
As a result, the reputation of Xingsha TV Station has improved!

It's not over yet...

When Yao Yuan was searching for news about "Dongfeng Po", a piece of news suddenly popped up.

It was an official Weibo post from China Television.

The Weibo content was praising Lin Xi.

The general meaning is that Lin Xi has been "conferred as a god" for two consecutive weeks, bringing songs that are enough to change the Chinese style landscape. They are deeply loved by fans and have promoted Chinese classical culture.He also used this to define "Chinese style", saying that Lin Xi's creative method is exactly the "new Chinese style" that the public needs now!It refuted what some experts on the Internet said was not orthodox enough.

At the same time, 'China Vision' believes that Chinese style does not mean completely following the classical style. It is complacent and should actively add new concepts and instruments based on China's unique style.

Blindly pursuing ancient flavors will only make music become more and more niche, and will not make young people like China's own music.

It should use ancient poetry, ancient culture, and ancient melodies, and integrate new singing methods, new arrangements, and new concepts...

'Three ancients and three new' are the Chinese style!
Only in this way can Chinese culture be carried forward and brought to the world!

Looking at this Weibo post from China Television, Yao Yuan was stunned.

what's the situation?
Why did the official personally step down and support Lin Xi? (End of chapter)
