Chapter 607 Peak!Music No.1

This slow-paced and heavy "Ten Years" evoked the love scenes and breakup scenes buried deep in the hearts of Zhang Guorong and Mei Yanfang respectively.

Different from Chen Xiaotang's previous song "Kiss Goodbye", this song has no heartbroken sorrow for breaking up, but some are about the No. Intertwined emotions slowly brewed in the hearts of the two of them.

It seems that after listening to this song, I am going through the process of breaking up again!

Especially the part "Ten years ago~ I didn't know you, you don't belong to me~ We are still by the side of a stranger~ Walking through the streets that are becoming familiar~Ten years later~We are friends and we can still greet~It's just that kind of tenderness~ I can no longer find a reason to hug~ lovers will inevitably become friends in the end..."

Listen, listen, a string of faint tears appeared on the cheeks of Mei Yanfang and Zhang Guorong at the same time.

"Pfft!" Mei Yanfang laughed through tears suddenly, seeing Zhang Guorong looking at her stupidly, she hurriedly explained: "I'm just wondering why Tang Zai always sings songs that make people cry, he's such a villain!"

Zhang Guorong wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said with a smile, "You're right, Ah Tang is heartless and doesn't care about people's feelings, singing is always so sensational!"

Mei Yanfang couldn't help smiling when she heard Zhang Guorong praise Chen Xiaotang in such a disguised form.

As Chen Xiaotang's friend, Zhang Guorong showed a trace of pride and pride on his face.

"With these two songs, one album is enough to be called a classic!" Zhang Guorong exclaimed.

You know, many singers make albums, only one or two songs are carefully produced, and some other songs may have been screened, but they must not be compared with one or two title songs.

Perhaps, only Chen Xiaotang's album can have such a situation, every song can be called a classic.The previous two albums have achieved this, and each song has been sung by many people and has many fans.

Next, the singles "Heart Like a Knife", "Lonely Pillow", and the song "It's not a sin for a man to cry" specially composed for the movie "Infernal Affairs" in this new album are almost classics. People are fascinated.But generally speaking, these songs are all popular love songs, and compared with the little freshness like "The Wind Blows the Wheat Waves", they are more popular with the mainstream group.

These songs were very popular in the previous life, and each of them had a place on the charts of golden songs, but now Mei Yanfang and Zhang Guorong feel that it is a waste to listen to them, because several classic songs are in one album.Such classics can be disassembled and released into several albums, so that the fame of one's own songs can last longer.

Generally speaking, many Hong Kong singers obviously have several classic songs, but they will not record them in an album.Because it feels like a waste.

Some albums are booming because of one or two classic songs.Therefore, if there are any remaining classic songs, they will be kept in the next album as a backup.

Of course, there are also some people who are making albums with all their strength, and use up all the good things at once.For example, the freak Chen Xiaotang in front of me.

When Mei Yanfang and Zhang Guorong heard the fifth song "It's not a crime for a man to cry", they were still immersed in some music emotions. A faint melancholy and lightness accumulated in their hearts. It was very contradictory, but they also enjoyed it.

But when it came to the sixth song Nocturne, both of them were stunned by the sudden change of music style. It seemed that they were eating snacks and drinking weak tea, and then suddenly a cauldron of spicy hot pot was served, which made people feel a little uncomfortable for a while. accept.

Mei Yanfang and Zhang Guorong glanced at each other at the same time, and they first thought that there might be something wrong with the tape, something wrong with the playback.But after Zhang Guorong took a closer look, she confirmed that there was no problem. This was clearly the new album Chen Xiaotang gave her.

You know, when Chen Xiaotang is recording the album, he will specially make some high-quality ones for relatives and friends as souvenirs.

As one of Chen Xiaotang's best friends, Zhang Guorong was very lucky to get such a gift.

"Guo Rong... Is this Tang Zai's song?" At first, Mei Yanfang was a little skeptical, the style of this song had changed too much, it was almost not her own style.

"It should be. I heard the master Huang Zhan said that he is a little unpredictable about the lyrics and artistic conception of a song... Maybe it's this song..." Zhang Guorong said uncertainly.

At this moment, I just listen to the recorder playing: "A piece of sorrow ~ standing alone at the window ~ I am behind the door ~ pretend that you have not left ~ the old place is like revisiting ~ the full moon is more lonely ~ the candlelight that wakes up in the middle of the night ~ I can't bear to criticize me ~Wandering in a pot~Wandering around the world is hard to get into your throat..."

Compared with the previous Xiaoqing, and the mainstream of love, this song is much more elegant and classical, giving people a feeling of... a costume drama.

Yes, it feels like a costume drama.In particular, Chen Xiaotang's voice with a touch of "minor" interest made this song vivid.

At the beginning, Zhang Guorong and Mei Yanfang were not used to listening to it, because as singers themselves, the songs they sang were all love songs in the modern popular mode, and there were few such classical songs.But slowly, with the melody of the song and the indescribable quaint artistic conception, they have gradually integrated into the song.

The song continued: "Who is playing the pipa~ A piece of Dongfeng Break~ Maple leaves dye the story~ I can see the ending~ I will lead you through the ancient road outside the fence..."

"It seems that this song is similar to Ah Tang's previous song "Fireworks Are Cold"!" Zhang Guorong said first.

"That's right, they all touch the soul so much, and make people tremble from the heart. The reason why music can be liked by people is because of that rare resonance, and Tang Zai has undoubtedly achieved this!" Mei Yanfang said. Said with admiration.

"Oh, now it seems that the gap between us and Ah Tang is really too big. He will always walk in front of us and bring us countless miracles. We are inexplicably amazed and admired!" Zhang Guorong couldn't help sighing.

As a famous queen, Mei Yanfang also felt this way. If she and Zhang Guorong were stars in the sky, then Chen Xiaotang was undoubtedly an extremely bright moon!

How did Chen Xiaotang know that he unintentionally combined the song "East Wind Breaks" with the refreshing version of "The Wind Blows the Wheat Waves" and the tender version of "It's Not a Sin to Cry A Man" to form an album, which gave Zhang Guorong and Mei Yanfang What a "shock" for these two superstars.In their view, Chen Xiaotang is simply an evildoer, with a variety of styles, and the penetration of emotion in the songs is pervasive. While shocking people, it can even touch people's hearts.And this masterpiece of genius is simply beyond the reach of human beings.

In fact, this is not just the feeling of Mei Yanfang and Zhang Guorong.Almost everyone who listened to this album felt the same way.

The first few songs are still in line with the current atmosphere of the times, and are very similar to some popular music styles and atmospheres.But when they heard the next few songs, many people were stunned.

The obvious Chinese style, like a tornado storm, hit everyone's eardrums in an instant, and even shocked the traditional pop music scene in Hong Kong like an earthquake.

What exactly is a popular song? !

Is it a lyrical love song?
Is it a rock song?
Or Chen Xiaotang's original Chinese style song? !

You know, in the previous life, the development of Chinese style songs has gone through two bands. The first band is "Mandarin Duck and Butterfly Dream" led by Huang An. This song became popular all over the country as soon as it came out. There are no butterflies.It's a pity that this Chinese style didn't last long, and it was broken by Zhou Huajian's "Flower Heart", which made people return to the traditional song lyricism from the Chinese style again, and the music of the decadent once again ruled the music scene.

Later, Dong Chou, who couldn't read clearly, was born, and the song "Dongfeng Po" directly established the monument of the new Chinese style, and has entered the period of Chinese style revival.During this period, people's pursuit of lyrics and artistic conception has reached an unprecedented level, so that people feel that they can only hear such songs to appear classical, elegant and connotative.And many new Chinese style singers have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, such as Hou Xian and Xu Song. Songs such as "After the Rain on the Qingming Festival" all give people the feeling of a classical landscape painting.Here I have to mention some other Chinese-style songs, such as Li Yugang's "The Drunken Concubine" and "Surfing the River During the Qingming Festival", which are actually closer to operas, and they are also assisted by the coloratura in operas. It looks full of flavor.

But now only in the 80s, in Hong Kong in [-], for the first time, Chen Xiaotang relied on his supreme popularity to create Chinese style songs in advance, which not only shook the cornerstone of the entire Hong Kong pop music scene, but also broke the shackles of all Hong Kong singers. They saw a new world besides love songs!
It turns out that songs can also be sung like this!
A song "Fireworks Are Cold" is enough to shock people!
This song "Dongfeng Po" directly makes people dumbfounded!
Chen Xiaotang used practical actions to directly help the Chinese music scene advance for 30 years! ! !
In the future, in the history of Chinese music, there was such a comment: We didn’t know what Chinese songs were like before, but after Chen Xiaotang appeared, we fully understood that besides the four great inventions left by our ancestors, there are also Inexhaustible Chinese style!And Chen Xiaotang is the well-deserved founder of Chinese style songs!He led an era and created a new century of music! "

Li Zongsheng, the godfather of Chinese music——
"Good song! Good people! Good music! This is an innovation, the perfect combination of our traditional Chinese music and pop music! Originally, our Chinese music creation was still in an era of exploration, and our ancestors gave us a lot of precious wealth. We have not been able to dig out one by one, our creativity is not enough, and we are not as diverse as Western music. Now Xiaotang Chen has brought us such music, which is refreshing and refreshing. As a musician, I want to represent Everyone is grateful to him, it is him who has given us new vitality and new hope in the Chinese music scene!"

……

In fact, these big names in the music world did not exaggerate their evaluation of Chen Xiaotang, and everyone has seen his achievements.

You must know that the current Chinese music is still in a period of development and exploration.Many music styles have not appeared, and the rock style of the Beyonce band has not formed. The Chinese music scene simply divides songs into fast songs and slow songs, and most of them are mainly love songs, or some martial arts TV dramas. Passionate songs, such as "The Earth is Under My Feet", "The Great Wall Will Never Fall" and so on.

In the West, however, the pop music system is very elaborate, such as jazz, soul, classical, MAP, etc.In contrast, the division of the Chinese music scene is really lackluster. The relatively single music style and roughly the same style make Chinese music at a disadvantaged stage in the world music scene.

The birth of Chen Xiaotang directly gave the entire Chinese music scene a shot in the arm, letting people know that Chinese music can do the same.

The hot sale of the album "The Return of the King" has spread from Hong Kong to Taiwan, from Taiwan to Xinmatai, Japan and South Korea, and then from Japan and South Korea to the United States
In Chinatown in the United States, in countless shops opened by Chinese, Chen Xiaotang's album appeared in the most conspicuous place.Young people like the catchy love songs and dance music in it, while older people who miss their homeland like the small and fresh "Wind Blowing the Wheat Waves" and the pure Chinese style "Dongfeng Po".

You can see such a scene in a teahouse in Chinatown, an old man in a Tang suit, holding a purple clay teapot, playing with the birds while humming: "Who is playing a song with a pipa~ The east wind breaks, the years are on the wall Peel off~ I saw when I was a child..."

You can also see such a scene in a record store in Chinatown, a young man in a punk outfit, while picking up and looking at the record in his hand, sang narcissistically: "It's not a sin for a man to cry, no matter how strong Man has the right to be tired too..."

The crazy sales of Chen Xiaotang's new album made him continuously break a series of records in the Chinese music scene, and established a new history of 1000 million copies. Calculated according to the production cost and profit of each album, with this album, Moying Entertainment's At least 5000 million for the phantom music!

This is definitely an astronomical figure for a Chinese record. There has never been a singer who can create such a profit record on a record.And with more and more albums by Chen Xiaotang, this record will be even bigger.

In view of Chen Xiaotang's great charm, Japan, South Korea and other regions actively contacted him, praying for him to hold a concert.And a sky-high price of one million US dollars was offered, which is absolutely unprecedented in the whole of Asia.

Since then, Chen Xiaotang's personal value has risen, and he has completely surpassed Xu Guanjie and others in the music scene, becoming the No.1 among the top!
