"The distorted Cantonese female voice paired with this section of retro melody has a chilling feeling? The storm is about to come, and the wind is blowing all over the building? These are not very accurate..."
Shi Yufan couldn't help closing his eyes and licking his tongue. After searching his guts, he finally found the most appropriate words to describe his feelings:
"The end of the war is approaching, and the knight opens his tired eyes. He has seen everything in the world, but he still cannot see through people's hearts. The only thing he trusts is the coldly shining weapon in his hand."
After all, he is a professional rap music critic with twenty years of experience. Shi Yufan quickly recovered from his momentary daze. He stared at the screen, raised his ears and listened carefully to Yan Qing's verses and flowing lyrics.
flow:
"Don't give too much highlight
Don't give me too much packaging
naturally grown soil
Chewing the coarsest chaff』
…
Unknowingly, Shi Yufan had sat up and murmured:
"The highlights, the packaging, the soil, the chaff, it's obviously a double-press in a row... but in the lyrics... it's full of overflowing... like wild growth... the sense of freedom of underground rap..."
Yan Qing, wearing a hood, lowering his head, and holding a microphone behind his back, gradually overlapped with the images of those (super underground players) in his memory.
…
"The road is still walking, even if the shackles are on my feet
The steps were pulled but the sound was still loud
Not just for resistance this time, but for the protection of freedom
The thoughts of children in the future are the national treasure.』
…
"Yan Qing has extracted the spiritual core of underground rap, a resistance to mainstream sounds! Never surrender to the shackles! Seniors, you have waited for this day... The future children of Chinese rap have stood up..."
Shi Yufan suddenly stood up, raised his fist high, and roared loudly:
"The thoughts of children in the future are the national treasure!"
…
"If
My life is controlled by others
Then who else can express his sincere recitation?
If this is really the last shot, let me block it.
At least I was still dreaming about this dream when it disappeared.』
Yan Qing's impassioned verse, full of fearless and sacrificial spirit, is also interspersed with a sad, subtle Cantonese female voice hook:
"For you/I'll go through the mountain of swords/I'm willing to die"
Shi Yufan couldn't help himself, and finally he became what a black fan hates the most - a brain-dead fan.
His performance at this moment was the same as the flying guests and all the behind-the-scenes staff who were watching the camera on the screen.
…
"Diss, I'm so slutty. My level needs to be improved."
With roots in humanities and art, I am not afraid of the prince being replaced by a civet cat.
Even if the executioner forces me to walk on my knees, I still submit with both hands
"Li Sao" written to explain the meaning of my life
…
Both inside and outside the screen were agitated at this moment. Shi Yufan was moving his body and shaking his head to the rhythm of the flow in the speakers, and his arms were pressing from top to bottom in a hip-hop style... roaring along with Yan Qing.
Punchline for the final question:
"The Li Sao that explains the meaning of my life!"
After completing his performance, Yan Qing finally flew up on the stage. Later, he generously added a set of extremely realistic special effects:
The image projected on the screen of Hong Soo-hyun, who had a vulgar expression and an evil smile, was saying, "You are so coquettish!" and was completely shattered by Yan Qing's flying kick.
Shi Yufan, who had not exercised so much for many years, was breathing heavily. He took out the white handkerchief in his breast pocket and carefully wiped the sweat on his forehead and neck.
After noticing this scene on the screen, he suddenly realized:
"It turns out that the title of the song "Li Sao" is here. It not only refers to the ancient Chu poem "Li Sao" written by Qu Yuan, a celebrity in southern Hunan, but also represents Yan Qing's own clever response to the emoticon "You are so coquettish."
Shi Yufan, who wanted to understand this point, smiled knowingly, and he said in unison with the tens of millions of viewers in front of the Whisper video:
"As expected of Hong Soo Hyun, you are so slutty!"
…………
"I feel sorry for the kind teacher Yan Qing!"
After all, the audience of rap songs is not as large as that of popular pop songs. Take Xu Moer as an example. First of all, she has no interest in rap songs. In addition, after Yan Qing performed, almost all the WeChat groups on her mobile phone started going crazy.
A certain emoticon is flooding the screen.
Unable to bear to watch, Xu Moer temporarily turned off the message notification on the Weiyan app. She clicked on the Whisper video again, and Weng Huaijing, who was dressed up and standing in the center of the stage, reappeared on the screen.
It was late at night, Xu Moer suppressed her inner joy, and whispered softly: "Finally, my Professor Weng is back!"
Her attention was firmly fixed on Weng Huaijing, who was standing elegantly in the center of the stage. Xu Moer completely ignored the one she was still distressed about just now. At this moment, Yan Qing was hiding in front of an upright piano at the back of the stage and had already started playing.
"Hey, wait, where is my Professor Weng? Why did a pair of boy's hands appear? The fingers are pretty, fair and slender..."
Fortunately, the program team immediately helped Yan Qing gain a sense of presence, and the camera focused on his fingers moving flexibly on the black and white piano keys.
A brilliant solo piano sound slowly flows out with a chime sound effect program followed in time by the keyboard.
"This prelude is so beautiful...worthy of my Professor Weng."
Xu Moer happily took her idol as his own.
In the center of the stage, Weng Huaijing firmly occupies the C position in the center of the lens. She raised the microphone and began to sing softly with an extremely ethereal, graceful and textured tone:
"If you were a firework on the sea
I am the foam of the waves
At a certain moment your light illuminated me』
…
When Weng Huaijing was singing, a split-screen display was turned on in the upper right corner of the screen.
Subtitle tip: (The following shots are provided by the Video Library of Imperial Dance Academy.)
What caught Xu Moer's eyes was the display webpage of "Gardener's Collection of Imperial Dance Academy".
A few lines of text are particularly dazzling under the ID photo, which is as beautiful as a hibiscus emerging from clear water:
Weng Huaijing (lina jungl )
Associate Professor of Ballet Department of Imperial Dance Academy (Deputy Senior Professional Title)
Weng Huai dreamed of studying in Rice. During his further studies, he won the platinum award at the biennial showcase American National Ballet Competition. He also won the solo gold medal at the headliners all-meter ballet competition for three consecutive years, and won the Balanchine Solo Award and many other international competition honors.
Xu Moer's eyes were fascinated: "This is the idol I love!"
…
"If you were a distant galaxy
So dazzling that it makes you want to cry
I'm chasing your eyes
Always look at the night sky when I am lonely』
…
A door marked "Honorary Exhibition Hall of Imperial Dance Academy" appeared on the split screen. A fair and slender arm gently pushed the door open, and the camera flashed golden honor trophies, certificates, and awards in the glass showcase.
Passed by one by one.
Xu Mo'er moved her eyes with difficulty and murmured softly: "Imperial Dance Academy, heavy honor, this is the light I am chasing!"
…
"I can follow you
Like a shadow dreamwalking after the light
I can wait at this intersection
No matter if you pass by or not"
…
In the ballet practice room of the Imperial Dance Academy, several girls who had practiced to the point of exhaustion sat slumped on the wooden floor. Their expressions and demeanor looked a little embarrassed, and they no longer looked as elegant as before the stage.
Professor Weng, who stood proudly beside them in the split screen, was silent. Her red lips trembled but she said nothing. She quietly knelt down to help them untie their ballet shoes and took out medicinal oil to help them treat their red and swollen toes.
refer to.
The ethereal and graceful singing voice is mixed with a cold female voice:
"Okay? Put on your shoes and continue."
…
"Every time I raise my head for you
Even tears feel free
Some love falls like sunshine
Possessing and losing at the same time』
…

In the dressing room, a group of girls wearing ballet costumes from Imperial Dance Academy hugged each other and cried.
Weng Huaijing quietly closed the door for them. She leaned against the wall outside the door, clumsily practicing how to say comforting words:
"Your dream...it's still shining brightly...so don't give up easily..."
When she was finally ready, she opened the door gently, and the dressing room was already empty. Only the thin shadow of Weng Huaijing in the light was left, and a faint sigh.
…
Accompanied by Weng Huaijing’s highly recognizable vocals;
Lyrics as relevant as a ballet dancer’s inner monologue;
Together with these internal video materials of the Imperial Dance Academy, a Weng Huaijing is completely different from his external image.
This kind of "Light Chaser" and this kind of longing are like sharp arrows, shot out at high speed, and instantly hit the softest place in the hearts of countless people.
Tears welled up in Xu Moer's eyes. She choked and said intermittently:
"How good it is, it's shining there, how could I give up..."
"The Imperial City Dance Academy...and the reports waiting for me there..."
"The best Professor Weng Huaijing in the world!"
…………
After a long time, Xu Moer calmed down and looked at the few videos left on the progress bar again:
The five flying guests, Jiang Biyao, Wang Wanxi, Jiang Tang, Duan Mengyuan, and Tian Xiaojie, gave Weng Huaijing and the song "Light Chaser" high praise. At the same time, they also responded to the request of the program team to evaluate the expected sales of the two works.
Evaluate.
In the end, based on the expected sales of the five flying guests, professional actuaries from the accounting firm B.I.V. gave an estimated operating output of 8 million for "Li Sao" and 15 million for "Light Chaser".
Notaries from the Xicheng Notary Office in the Imperial Capital notarized the valuation process and results.
Xu Moer wiped away her tears with a matter-of-fact expression:
"Sure enough, it is much higher than the song "Li Sao". It is different with Professor Weng participating in the creation."
The most glorious moment of the flight guest review session came from Wang Wanxi’s cute comment:
"Is this because the talents of the big guys are often modest? I have learned from this."
Seeing this, Xu Moer thought that the show was coming to an end, so she could quickly whisper and show off her wits.
She clicked on Whispering as soon as possible, but it was too late. Wang Wanxi's words had already been successfully operated by Huohuo's marketing account, which was crouching and sharpening its knives. It made it onto the popular search list of Whispering, ranking seventeenth.
Xu Mo'er, who was a little disappointed, noticed the top-ranked entry on the hot search list: #《TALENT CO., LTD.》Easter Egg#
"Remember to look at the easter eggs!!! Say important things three times!!!"
Xu Moer reacted immediately when she saw this hot comment. She closed the Whisper app and switched back to the Whisper video:
