Yang Chaoyue led the girl group back to the backstage.
Looking at the praise from the audience and the pursuit from netizens on the Internet.
She suddenly felt a little elated.
Now it seems that my sister’s audience appeal is unique!
The show she performed, Yang Chaoyue, had the highest ratings of this year's Spring Festival Gala so far!
The ratings she created almost exceeded those of most artists in Su Chen Studio!
Yang Chaoyue estimated.
I’m afraid that even if Su Chen himself appears, the ratings may not be as high as my sister’s!
What kind of messed up Chinese style songs?
Who knows how to appreciate it!
"Su Chen! Su Chen! Su Chen!"
At this moment, a series of voices rang out in the venue that made her feel irritated.
Because the next person to appear is Su Chen!
The audience at the scene were already eagerly calling for Su Chen to come on stage!!!
Yang Chaoyue looked at the enthusiasm of the audience and felt unhappy.
Secretly complaining:
Who would like those two old-fashioned songs? These people are just fans of Su Chen, why are they so fanatical?
Anyway, she can't appreciate that kind of messy new song.
Haha, just wait and see how Su Chen fails tonight!
However, it seems that things have just begun!
Suddenly, the team member next to her exclaimed: "Sister Yang, look, Su Chen is number one on the trending search list again!"
Yang Chaoyue subconsciously asked back: "What? Su Chen was attacked again?"
It seems that my navy is still quite powerful!
She smiled secretly and moved closer, but when she saw the title of the trending search, she was stunned.
The hot search title is: [Su Chen appears on Xixi TV Spring Festival Gala! ]
"Click and take a look!" Yang Chaoyue said impatiently.
The team member quickly clicked it.
"Let me see it!" Yang Chaoyue grabbed the phone and started looking at it.
She didn't read the nonsense text and scrolled directly to the comment section at the bottom.
“Over a million comments!”
Seeing this, Yang Chaoyue was struck by lightning, this speed of commenting was too scary.
In just a few seconds, millions of comments appeared!
At this rate, many small network platform servers will crash tonight!
"Su Chen is finally going to play. I've waited for so long, and finally I've waited for you!!!"
"The real god is finally here. The previous shows were so boring. If it weren't for the artists under Su Chen's studio to keep me alert, I would have fallen asleep."
“Ahhhh, I’m right here at the scene. I can already feel my cheeks getting hot. I suspect I’ll faint from excitement when Su Chenzhen shows up later.”
"Don't panic upstairs, I'm here too. I've prepared some quick-acting heart pills. If you need them, I can bring them to you. I can't take any more, I need to take one myself first!"
“…”
However, that’s not all!
At this time, the news that Su Chen appeared on Xixi TV was still fermenting on the Internet.
After the term topped the trending search lists on major Chinese online platforms, its momentum has only increased.
It became the number one hot search in the Asia-Pacific region in just a few seconds.
Netizens in the Asia-Pacific region naturally also admired Su Chen:
"Smecta, our Kimchi country's Oppa Su Chen is finally going to play!"
"Kimchi Koreans, please have some shame. Su Chen is clearly the heroic spirit of our great Sakura Country who was born in China!"
"We and China are one, so Su Chen should belong to our Annan!"
"I'm really looking forward to the new songs that Su Chen will bring us next. I have long been fascinated by Chinese culture. I wonder if these two new songs can bring us different surprises?"
“…”
At this moment, almost all of Asia and the Pacific's attention was focused on Su Chen!
The hosts Liu Yan and Sabining came onto the stage with a smile.
Liu Yan:
"The old year is about to pass, and the new year is about to come!"
Sabine Lemon:
"In the past year, when talking about the entertainment industry, everyone will think of one name——"
"Su Chen!!!"
"Su Chen!!!"
“…”
The audience immediately burst into screams!
Liu Yan:
"That's right! In the past year, Su Chen has brought us so many wonderful things!"
Sabine Lemon:
"Su Chen vividly demonstrated to us what it means to be both virtuous and talented!"
Liu Yan:
"Now, Su Chen is going to bring us two of his new Chinese-style songs!"
Sabine Lemon:
"Please welcome Teacher Su Chen!"
The words fell.
The elevator took the two hosts away.
“Aaaaaa——”
"Su Chen! Su Chen!!!"
Shouts and screams were heard again at the scene.
Right at this moment.
Su Chen, dressed in Han costume, appeared on the stage from behind.
However, what surprised everyone was.
Su Chen did not turn around, but picked up the brush on the round table in front of him and began to dip it in ink.
Su Chen's die-hard fans suddenly remembered something at this moment.
"Brother Chen, are you going to perform calligraphy for us?"
"Lanting Preface? Brother Chen wants to write Lanting Preface for us?"
“Aaaaaaaa——”
"Don't forget! Our Brother Chen is a great calligrapher who would make even the president of the Calligraphy Association ashamed!"
“…”
really.
Two dancers in Han costumes, carrying a blank screen, walked over in small steps.
Su Chen picked up the brush and began to write on the screen:
In the ninth year of Yonghe,
In the year of Guichou,
At the beginning of late spring,
We met at Lanting in Shanyin, Kuaiji.
It is a ritual of purification.
…
Chief Director Yu Lei asked to add some more scenes.
When Su Chen heard that it was about performing calligraphy, he thought it would be appropriate for the occasion and would not be difficult at all.
Just agreed.
“Ahhhhhh…”
Seeing this scene, screams broke out at the scene.
"Brother Chen's calligraphy is so cool!"
"This character... I'm afraid even if Wang Xizhi were to be reborn, he wouldn't be much better!"
“…”
The layman watches the excitement, while the expert watches the details.
Some people who are interested in calligraphy looked at the calligraphy Su Chen was displaying at this time.
My jaw had already dropped.
No one had ever seen the original copy of "Lanting Xu". But they were shocked to find that the calligraphy displayed by Su Chen at this time was even better than the "Feng version" of the "Lanting Xu" handed down from generation to generation, which was the highest level !
Just when everyone was immersed in Su Chen's elegant and graceful calligraphy.
An accompaniment music mixed with erhu and jazz drums was transmitted to everyone's ears through the stage speakers.
After hearing this music, everyone at the scene suddenly fell silent.
The next second, goose bumps appeared on everyone's body!
This music...
Why does classical music have a trendy rhythm?
A modern atmosphere with a touch of classic charm?
Is this a Chinese style song?
This moment.
Su Chen put down the brush and turned around.
Approaching the audience, he began to sing:
"Lanting calligraphy is like flowing clouds and running water
Under the moon, I push the door with my heart as careful as your footsteps
It is easy to copy the thousand-year-old monument, but it is difficult to copy your beauty.
To whom can I give the true heart?
..."
Backstage.
Chief Director Yu Lei looked at the audience who were fascinated by the performance and smiled widely.
He was very proud of himself for asking Su Chen to perform calligraphy, which was a stroke of genius.
Such calligraphy!
Such a song!
Such a handsome man!
An absolute visual feast!
What makes Yu Lei even happier is that the real-time ratings of the Spring Festival Gala have exceeded 42%!
It created the highest ratings record for Xixi TV Spring Festival Gala in nearly 20 years!
"Shepherd's flute, yellow wine, and a few side dishes
The afterglow of the sunset is like your shyness and drunkenness
The copy is easy to write but the fragrance of ink will not fade away and leave a lingering taste with you
Who is surrounded by the line of cinnabar?
..."
Yang Chaoyue looked at this scene and tried to control her expression.
But I feel a little disgusted in my heart.
Gimmick! This is definitely just an eye-catching gimmick.
She didn't think that doing this would make everyone like Su Chen's weird songs!
Just wait and see, the audience will get bored if you sing more than a few lines.
"It has nothing to do with romance. I'll write a preface and wait for your reply.
The waves on the shore are rolling
Why is it that no matter how I write the word love, it is always wrong?
I only lack your understanding of my life
..."
However, what Yang Chaoyue did not notice was.
The Internet was in an uproar at this time.
"Ahhh! Brother Chen looks even more handsome in ancient costume!"
“What a beautiful song!”
"The whole screen is full of Chinese elements! So beautiful!"
"How beautiful and magnificent is our Chinese culture!"
“…”
Su Chen turned around and faced the audience on the other side.
Continue singing:
"It has nothing to do with romance. I'll write a preface and wait for your reply.
The waves on the shore are rolling
Why is it that no matter how I write the word love, it is always wrong?
I only lack your understanding of my life
It has nothing to do with romance. I will wait for your reply.
The waves on the shore are rolling
Why is it that no matter how I write the word love, it is always wrong?
I only lack your understanding of my life
..."
When the interlude music sounded.
Bang bang bang!
"Ah! Brother Chen in ancient costume is so handsome!"
“It’s so beautiful!”
“…”
There was immediate applause and cheers from the audience.
For the audience on site.
It starts with Su Chen performing calligraphy on stage.
Now we have finished singing the first half of "Lanting Preface".
They were bombarded by Su Chen for two or three minutes!
Now I can finally breathe a sigh of relief!
People from the entertainment and cultural circles at the scene were all stunned at this moment!
It's definitely an eye-opener!
They never imagined that music could be played like this!
Perfectly combines Chinese classical culture and modern pop music!
Highlight the glorious culture of our great China!
After the interlude.
Su Chen began to sing the second verse:
"In the blink of an eye, the city is annihilated
The bluestone street looks back and smiles gracefully
Hate it or not? You shook your head and sighed. Who made you frown?
And the boudoir only has the smell of rouge
..."
At this moment, the audience couldn't help but close their eyes.
Savor the song carefully.
At this moment, they were shocked to find out.
Su Chen's lyrics created a series of images that were imprinted in their minds:
The bluestone street, a glance back and a smile, love at first sight.
However, locked up in the inner chamber, I can only sigh helplessly.
Time passes and things change.
The past can only be recollected.
"People are like geese flying south, turning around and glancing at you with tears in their eyes
How can I sleep with the moon in my hands and memories in my arms?
How can I be worried about something and sew my embroidered shoes with every stitch and complain?
If the flowers blame the butterflies, who would you blame?
..."
In the VIP seats, Li Guyi's face was filled with shock.
After listening to the melody of this song, Li Guyi was shocked.
The song "Lanting Xu" actually uses the pentatonic scale!
Yes, it is the pentatonic scale unique to Chinese classical music.
However, the accompanying music is a combination of Western instruments and modern pop music!
Use modern music accompaniment to set off the classical Chinese music!
No wonder it is called “Chinese style songs”!
As a veteran musician, Li Guyi is very clear that this kind of musical style that combines Chinese and Western styles has appeared for the first time in this time and space!
This is Su Chen’s innovation!
"It has nothing to do with romance. I'll write a preface and wait for your reply.
The waves on the shore are rolling
Why is it that no matter how I write the word love, it is always wrong?
I only lack your understanding of my life
It has nothing to do with romance. I will wait for your reply.
Handwritten: No shame, no fear of worldly disputes
The rain hit the banana leaves for several nights
I wait for the spring thunder to remind you who you love
..."
What the hell?
Yang Chaoyue looked at the audience's intoxicated expressions with a look of astonishment on his face.
Originally, she thought that it was just Su Chen's popularity, the filters and the strong stage atmosphere. When the audience came to their senses, they would start complaining like her that Su Chen's songs were too old-fashioned.
But now, the song is over, why do you still have this expression?
What kind of magic potion did Su Chen feed you to make you so obsessed?
Is this song really that good?
Are you guys just too stupid, or do I have a poor appreciation of music?
Yang Chaoyue took a deep breath, took out his mobile phone with a slightly panicked expression, and wanted to check the comments on the Internet.
No, it's impossible, my music appreciation ability can't be that bad!
You audience members here are definitely hired by Su Chen, you are all fake!
But when she saw that the top-ranked term on the hot search list was [Su Chen's "Lanting Preface" is another epoch-making masterpiece! ], the last bit of fantasy in her heart was shattered.
Netizens in the comment section were full of praise for Su Chen's new song:
"I got in five minutes early! As expected, Brother Chen gave me the biggest surprise of the New Year!"
"No matter whether Su Chen's remaining new song is good or not, he has become a god in my eyes just for this song "Lanting Preface"!"
"Those clowns said Su Chen's new song must be terrible. Come on, shout louder and let me see what's in your head."
"This poem, "Lanting Preface", is based on famous calligraphy works from ancient times. Both the lyrics and the music are unique in the current Chinese music scene.
Listening to this soothing Chinese-style song with a hint of sadness, I seemed to see the thin calligraphy master bending over his desk and writing.
Every stroke of the pen is the backbone of the Chinese nation for five thousand years!
Su Chen's song is a unique piece of Chinese history. It is no exaggeration to call it a masterpiece!"
"The big guy upstairs is here, I don't know the calendar, I have the same opinion!"
“…”
After reading all those unconcealed and fanatical praises of Su Chen on the Internet, Yang Chaoyue fell into a state of doubt about her life.
Is my music appreciation ability really based on the defense?
At this time.
Yang Chaoyue suddenly realized.
The reason why my performance just now had such high ratings.
Not that the audience wants to see her!
Instead, audiences from all over the country wanted to see Su Chen, so they entered the venue a little earlier!
That's why she has a high viewership rating!!
Director's room.
Chief Director Yu Lei couldn't help laughing out loud.
He never thought that Su Chen only sang a song and the ratings soared to 50.17%!
This is an incredible number in this era of information explosion and diversified entertainment!
The last time the ratings were so high was probably the Spring Festival Gala in the last century.
But the value of the two cannot be compared.
In the last century, not only were there few people owning televisions at home, but there were also only a few TV programs.
Now, there are hundreds of TV channels alone, not to mention the impact of mobile short videos, online dramas, movies and games.
Therefore, today's Spring Festival Gala is destined to be recorded in the history of Xixi TV.
As the chief director of this year's Xixi TV Spring Festival Gala, Yu Lei can also add a strong chapter to his resume.
"I really benefited from Su Chen's help!"
He looked at Su Chen on the stage and felt grateful.
…
Backstage.
Zhang Guoli was so shocked by the horrific ratings that his jaw almost dropped to the ground.
To be honest, when he was surpassed by Liang Bo from Su Chen Studio, he was still a little dissatisfied.
He believed that the other party was simply taking advantage of the times, and that young people who liked trends made up the majority of entertainment audiences, and that was how they were lucky enough to surpass him.
But now, the sensation and terrifying ratings caused by Su Chen's "Lanting Preface" instantly crushed his idea.
It was not until then that he came to his senses.
It turned out that in terms of audience appeal, he was like a babbling kid holding a wooden stick and showing off in front of Guan Erye in front of Su Chen.
I don't even have the qualifications to let the other person look at me.
And the most terrifying thing is that not only is Su Chen strong himself, but all the artists under him can be as good as him or even surpass him.
Even...almost all the stars!
This kind of influence is unique in contemporary times!
In the audience seats of the Xixi TV Spring Festival Gala, some audience members shed tears on the spot, while others screamed loudly.
The poem "Lanting Preface" completely conquered the hearts of these people.
They never imagined that their Chinese cultural heritage was so profound.
Chinese style songs are so beautiful!
This also made them look forward to Su Chen's other Chinese-style song "Blue and White Porcelain", wondering if this song could continue to bring them the same shock as "Lanting Preface".
In the rest area.
Zhen Zidan, Fan Shaohuang, Shi Xiaolong, Wu Jing and others exclaimed in amazement. They never expected that Teacher Su Chen was not only an expert in Chinese martial arts, but also had mastered Chinese classical culture for many years and reached a high level.
With such top-notch attainments, even if he doesn't become a star, he will probably become a famous artist known all over the world!
"When I was filming 'Fist of Fury', I was shocked by Teacher Su Chen's martial arts skills. Now this 'Lanting Preface' has given me another big surprise. I am completely convinced!" Zhen Zidan said with a wry smile.
Wu Jing and others also nodded silently to show their agreement.
These contemporary Chinese Kung Fu superstars have completely surrendered to that godlike man.
On stage.
Facing the enthusiastic response from the audience, Su Chen just smiled and bowed, saying softly: "Thank you everyone."
Then, the smile on his face faded, and his eyes were as calm as a deep pool under the moon: "Next, I will bring you another new Chinese style song of mine - "Blue and White Porcelain"."
In the rest area.
Zhang Yimou, Li Guyi and other older generation artists heard this and couldn't help but look forward to Su Chen's song even more.
They have been immersed in it for a lifetime and have only gained some superficial knowledge of the national quintessence.
But no one would have expected that Su Chen, at such a young age, could analyze the profound and serious Chinese classical culture into such a wonderful song!
It is no exaggeration to say that this "Lanting Preface" is definitely the most profound, easiest to promote and accept Chinese-style song they have ever heard.
While making the meaning of the lyrics simple and clear, Su Chen was also able to preserve the original core of Chinese culture intact.
It can be said to be a milestone work that is as if a god has descended to earth and shocked the world and made ghosts cry!
If the next song "Blue and White Porcelain" can reach the level of the previous song, then Su Chen's status in the Chinese pop music scene will be given a different halo!
Now let’s see whether this song can bring a different surprise to these old people!
Just at this moment.
The prelude of "Blue and White Porcelain" sounded on the stage.
Bang, bang, bang…
A few drum beats rang out, flowing into everyone's hearts like a clear summer spring.
After two beats of drums, the pleasant sounds of zither and harp rang out.
The opening piece was a perfect combination of Chinese musical instruments, which instantly made everyone excited and listened attentively.
After four measures.
When the melodious flute and heavy bass sounds rang out.
When Li Guyi opened his eyes, he felt goosebumps all over his body!
With just this prelude, the same idea suddenly came to their minds:
This song is even more outstanding than "Lanting Preface"!
This prelude gave them the feeling of a lady holding exquisite celadon, half covering her face, slowly walking towards them along the clear stream that ran through the bamboo forest.
A breeze blew across my face, carrying with it the faint fragrance of the lady and the rich flavor of ancient Chinese style.
Snare drum, flute, guzheng...the collision of these instruments, no, it should be said that they are in perfect harmony, as if they were created naturally.
It makes people feel relaxed and focused.
The older generation of artists would have never imagined that by combining various Chinese musical instruments together, they could produce the prototype of a beautiful painting!
On stage.
Su Chen raised the microphone and opened his thin lips:
"The blank outlines the blue and white strokes, which become thick and light.
The peony depicted on the bottle is just like your first makeup
The sandalwood fragrance is coming through the window, I understand your thoughts
Put the pen halfway down on the rice paper
..."
In the audience.
Thousands of spectators each had their mouths open, and the amazement in their eyes almost fell on their bodies.
Shocking, nothing but shocking!
Su Chen's unique gentle and mellow voice was like a dexterous hand, which unconsciously outlined the strokes of blue and white porcelain in their minds.
At this moment, the whole audience was silent.
Everyone was completely absorbed in listening to Su Chen's singing as if they were mesmerized.
"The charm of the glaze rendering of the ladies' painting is privately kept
And your sweet smile is like a bud about to bloom
Your beauty is fading away
Going to places I can't go
..."
The beauty in the song floated into the hearts of the audience along with Su Chen's singing.
A beautiful and peaceful atmosphere permeated the venue, and the audience's hearts were cleansed by the singing.
Many people closed their eyes, emptied their minds, and swayed their bodies slightly to the rhythm of "Blue and White Porcelain".
In Su Chen's new song, they seemed to have transformed into craftsmen with superb skills.
In the drizzle, sky-blue porcelain with flowers is made, and the patterns appear with every stroke.
Everyone has a unique blue and white porcelain in their hearts.
It is as if the classical Chinese culture, through Su Chen's singing, has sown a seed of cultural treasure in their hearts.
