When she pushed the door open and walked in, Song Meng looked like she hated iron.
Zhou Yike scratched his head with a guilty conscience.
"Pipa Xing" is really hard to memorize!
This is quite difficult for a college graduate.
Chen Ming smiled helplessly and shook his head.
To be fair, he found this poem not difficult to memorize.
Both from the rhyme and the general meaning of the words, it is very catchy.
The reason why Zhou Yike found it difficult to memorize was probably because Chen Ming put too much pressure on him.
Although Chen Ming would not rush Zhou, Zhou could still be anxious.
Seeing this, Chen Ming closed the door of the recording room and walked up.
"What do you find difficult to memorize?"
Chen Ming took the lyrics book from Zhou Yike's hand, with the lyrics of "Pipa Xing" written on it.
This is a very classic ancient poem!
It is no exaggeration to say that even the Chinese language textbooks selected for middle and high schools in China are more than enough.
Chen Ming has such confidence in China’s ancient culture!
As long as you understand the meaning of this poem, it will be easy to recite it.
Seeing Chen Ming, Zhou Yike felt even more embarrassed.
He carried it for three weeks and was still stumbling a bit.
After hearing Chen Ming's question, Zhou Yike hesitated for a while, unable to tell the specific details that were difficult to memorize.
For him, the entire poem is difficult to memorize...
Song Meng was a little helpless.
What can she do with such a boyfriend?
Chen Ming could only act as a Chinese teacher for a while, and translated the entire poem for Zhou Yike.
As long as the story behind it is engraved in Zhou Yike's mind, it won't be too difficult to recite it.
After a long time, Chen Ming returned the lyrics book to Zhou Yike.
"Song Meng, have you memorized this poem?"
"Uh-huh."
"Do you remember the music of "Pipa Xing"?"
"Remember."
This is easy to handle!
Chen Ming asked Zhou Yike to stand aside while he and Song Meng demonstrated to him first.
Because it was a demonstration, Chen Ming and Song Meng sang a cappella.
After Chen Ming stood in front of the microphone, Zhou Yike's expression became serious.
"Listen carefully, each sentence is connected and not just a pile of words."
Chen Ming warned again.
Then, Chen Ming looked at Song Meng. Song Meng also had a microphone in front of her, but it was smaller than Chen Ming's microphone.
Before starting to sing, Chen Ming thought for a moment and asked others outside the recording room to come in and listen again.
This is a learning opportunity for them!
Chen Ming has always encouraged young artists to learn. Just like when he recorded "The Wind Rises" last year, letting others listen to it again and even participate in it is of great benefit to them.
A few minutes later, the recording room was full of people.
The originally spacious recording room suddenly seemed a little crowded.
Suddenly, an idea flashed through Chen Ming's mind.
Do we need to change Guofengtang to a larger place?
As his fame grows, more and more artists will join Guofengtang.
Looking at it this way, today's studio seems a bit small.
This idea is very necessary!
After waiting, Chen Ming wants to discuss it with Zhou Yike.
Looking at the expectant eyes, Chen Ming nodded to Song Meng.
Song Meng understood clearly and began to recall the lyrics of "Pipa Xing".
The next second, Chen Ming spoke first.
◤Send off guests on the first night in Xunyangjiang River,
Maple leaves and flowers rustle in autumn.
The master dismounts the passengers on the boat,
Lifting the wine and wanting to drink, there is no orchestral music.
If you are too drunk, you will have to say goodbye miserably.
Farewell, the vast river is bathed in the moon.◢
In ancient China, it had the reputation of Tang poetry and Song lyrics.
Not only that, there is also a very famous word: poetry and lyrics.
Expressing the emotion of the poem in an impassioned manner is the beauty of the poem; and using singing to interpret the charm of the words is a different charm.
This song "Pipa Xing" is a long narrative poem.
In terms of form, it is a poem; in terms of content, it is a story.
Now, Chen Ming has sung this long narrative in the form of lyrics, which is equivalent to combining the advantages of both, bursting out a different sense of beauty.
Suddenly, the words that were originally bitter and difficult to understand became simpler.
Zhou Yike's eyes also lit up. During this period, he had been memorizing by rote, but he never thought of singing and memorizing at the same time.
He is not good at memorizing poetry.
But singing is his forte!
At this moment, Zhou Yike felt that the verses in the lyrics book were no longer boring, and images emerged one after another, occupying his mind.
After Chen Ming, Song Meng followed closely.
◤The big strings are noisy like heavy rain,
The little strings are as clear as a whisper.
Noisy and jumbled bullets,
Big beads and small beads fall on the jade plate.◢
This section is the drama part.
Chen Ming originally thought that it would be enough to let Song Meng sing with a normal voice. Anyway, it was just a demonstration for Zhou Yike, not a formal recording.
Unexpectedly, Song Meng's acting skills were so skillful that Chen Ming was shocked.
Song Meng actually knows how to drama!
From the pronunciation of the opera tune, it is almost as good as Chen Ming's, and even better than Zhou's.
Chen Ming was amazed in his heart.
To be honest, if it hadn't been for Zhou Yike to sing this song, Chen Ming would have wanted to change someone and let Song Meng sing this song.
Even Chen Ming couldn't find anything wrong with Song Meng's singing.
The light in Zhou Yike's eyes became stronger and stronger.
Got it!
He understood it all at once!
This is what it feels like to sing this song!
At this moment, everyone in the recording room had different expressions.
Song Meng's expression was the calmest, while Chen Ming was a little surprised. Zhou Yike suddenly realized that he seemed to understand something.
The remaining young artists were extremely excited.
Some of them did not join Guofengtang because they liked Gufengge, but because they wanted to distance themselves from Chen Ming.
In their opinion, being on Chen Ming's lap is much more important than singing.
But at this moment, they felt the charm of ancient songs.
It turns out that ancient poems can be sung so beautifully, and more importantly, Chen Ming and Song Meng sang a cappella without any accompaniment.
They couldn't even imagine how much better this song would sound if it were accompanied by instrumental accompaniment.
The ancient songs are very nice.
Some people's thoughts began to change quietly.
Being on Chen Ming's thigh is important, but their dream is to sing by themselves.
When joining Guofengtang, their first goal should be to produce songs, not to curry favor with Chen Ming.
After figuring this out, they looked at Chen Ming with even more respect.
As a member of Guofeng Tang, they cannot disgrace their talents to Guofeng Tang.
Chen Ming still didn't know that his small move had actually changed the minds of many people.
After a song.
Chen Ming and Song Meng slowly calmed down.
The next second, Chen Ming started to applaud, and his applause was for Song Meng.
"Singing great!"
Chen Ming praised without hesitation that Song Meng's singing in the drama amazed everyone.
Immediately afterwards,
Chen Ming looked at Zhou Yike.
"Do you feel it? Do you still find this poem difficult to memorize?"
