Chapter 244 A Perfect Ending of 'Listening to the Sea'
"Please invite the last singer to participate tonight, Ye Xiaoxue, to sing "Listen to the Sea" for everyone!"
As the supporter said, the camera turned to Ye Xiaoxue who was still in the audience.
Since the last performance, Ye Xiaoxue has reversed the originally scolding Internet public opinion with her song "Taste". With the secret help of Wen Zhenghe's company, she has been quietly crowned by netizens as an all-around singer-songwriter, and her rise is not inferior to that of the previous year.
Wen Zheng before.
If Wen Zheng's lyrics and music made her dream take off, then her own excellent strength is the sail and the wings of her dream.
Her journey to pursue her dream must be clear at a glance if she has to choose one of the two.
In the prelude.
The dancers on the stage danced leisurely to the melody, and as soon as the song information came out, it actually aroused a strong response from the audience.
No one expected that Ye Xiaoxue turned out to be an "original" song!
Looking at the nine contestants, apart from her, only Wen Zheng could do it. Even Lin Tanhua, who was previously known as a master of both lyrics and music, has not dared to use her own songs in these competitions.
People generally feel that Ye Xiaoxue seems to be running on the way to the top, following in Wen Zheng's footsteps.
Ye Xiaoxue on the stage is still wearing a long dress today, but it has been changed from pure white to moon white. Under the illusion caused by the interweaving of light, it looks like a light gray or blue dress, making her whole person look a bit melancholy.
.
"Write and tell me what color the sea is today.
The sea is with you every night, no matter how you feel."
She opened her mouth slowly, and the image was immediately apparent, and the eyes of the five judges in the audience were all brightened.
They have noticed that Ye Xiaoxue today is different from before.
Her singing style and even her singing voice today should be a new attempt.
"Gray means I don't want to talk, blue means melancholy.
And where do you, the drifting heart of the wild waves, stop?"
Ye Xiaoxue sang the first short verse in a calm and telling tone, seemingly indifferent and without even causing any waves, but many listeners had been quietly brought into the world of the song by her.
Her old fans have already felt it. No matter how dull the beginning of the song is, the emotions behind it will be strong.
Just like the song "Taste" she sang in the last performance, the last few lines of "I miss you", which she sang at the end, touched the hearts of many people invisibly.
Unknowingly, Ye Xiaoxue's songs seem to have their own label.
Her songs are like a cocktail that tastes dull at first, tastes slit again, and is ecstatic with the last sip.
This is obviously different from Wen Zheng's kneeling series with his mouth open. It's hard to say which one is better, but both are equally deeply rooted in people's hearts.
"Write and tell me what you want to dream about tonight.
Do you have no choice between me inside and outside the dream?"
Ye Xiaoxue sang two questions in a row with the calmest tone and calmest attitude.
Where does your heart stop?
Am I leaving you with no choice?
Lin Qi in the background frowned, and Wen Zheng beside her just silently lit a cigarette.
When he gave this song to Ye Xiaoxue, he knew that Ye Xiaoxue could sing her own understanding. Although he was the one being questioned at the moment, and felt somewhat embarrassed in his heart, in order to make Ye Xiaoxue stand out, this was the most effective and direct way.
method.
"I was clutching my heart and couldn't close my eyes all night.
Why don't you get closer even though you're obviously in love?"
Ye Xiaoxue on the stage kept singing all night long, but she actually closed her eyes slightly. Her whole heart seemed to be struggling and cramping, but she still couldn't bear to vent her long-standing dissatisfaction to the person in front of her.
mood.
However, her rationality finally failed for a moment, and she still asked that question, why didn't she get closer even though she was in love?
I don’t understand, I’m unwilling, I can’t even believe it.
At first, Wen Zheng's answer of "It's about being in love but not about being polite" made her happy, but in the end it turned into unwillingness, and she couldn't understand why she should be the one who was miserable and depressed? He obviously admitted it himself.
ah.
Here is the third question.
But the emotional tone has gradually changed from calm and plain to intense, as if he had tasted the second sip of the glass of wine, and the strong drink cut his throat, but he suppressed his expression unchanged.
After a brief moment of losing control and asking questions, reason returned again, but the reluctance in my heart became even stronger.
At this time, using scenery to express emotions seems to be the best choice.
So she sang:
"Listen to the sound of the sea crying,
Sighing, who has been hurt again, but is still not awake."
She knew it was herself, but she would rather continue to be sad than forget the faint smell of tobacco between his fingers. However, the fact was undeniable.
"It must not be me, at least I am calm.
But tears, even tears, I don’t believe.”
Ye Xiaoxue used her personal experience to vividly interpret the emotional ups and downs in this song.
After singing to this point, it is difficult to maintain the calmness on the surface, and the turbulent emotions of unwillingness in the heart are difficult for even the most rational person to continue to suppress.
As a result, she hesitated between revealing her heart and remaining reserved:
"Listen to the sound of the sea crying.
This sea is too sentimental, and I cry until dawn.
Write me a letter and treat it as your final agreement,
Tell me how you felt when you left me."
It's a pity that once emotions are vented, it is difficult to stop them. It is like a thousand-mile embankment being eaten away by ant nests day and night. It seems that there are only inconspicuous holes, but in fact, it is full of holes inside. If it breaks, it will affect the whole body.
.
At this point, the melody of the whole song suddenly became high-pitched along with Ye Xiaoxue's mood.
"Write a letter and tell me what you want to dream about tonight..."
"I'm gripping my heart... Why are you clearly in love, but you don't come close?!"
Unknowingly, Ye Xiaoxue's singing began to give people a heart-wrenching feeling, and her eyes turned red without even realizing it.
"Listen to the sound of the sea crying and sighing..."
"It must not be me, at least I am calm...I don't even believe the tears."
"It must not be me."
"It must not be me! At least I am calm. Listen to the sound of the sea crying... crying until dawn."
"Write me a letter."
"Write me a letter!"
"Write me a letter and it will be your final agreement."
"Tell me how you felt when you left me, when you left me, when you left me."
The lyrics are repeated and the emotions are superimposed.
Ye Xiaoxue skillfully uses high notes and rhythms to express emotions, with impeccable skills. Not only does it bring a tear-jerking emotional experience to the audience, but it also makes her feel self-pity and compassion, and the pain of falling flowers and flowing water is heartless.
The song ends.
Ye Xiaoxue took advantage of the gap when the camera zoomed out and quickly wiped away her tears.
Amidst the belated applause from the audience, I don’t know whether the director intentionally or unintentionally cut the live broadcast and the scene to the lounge backstage.
Wen Zheng's camera glances at him, but can he escape the eyes of the barrage masters?
Of course it's impossible.
For a moment, the word "scumbag" filled the screen, either out of ridicule or just to join in the fun.
In short, at this moment, many people, after being moved by Ye Xiaoxue's singing, subconsciously believed that the person who caused Ye Xiaoxue to be so deeply hurt must be Wen Zheng.
"We worship her as a goddess, but you abandon her like worn out shoes? Is there any royal law? Is there any law?"
"Wen Zheng, please open your eyes and look at that person on the stage. How can you bear it?"
"It used to be said that Ye Xiaoxue could only cry. When she meets such a scumbag, she, a little girl, can only cry."
"If Wen Zheng's songs weren't really good, I would have turned from a fan to a fan. But Ye Xiaoxue... alas..."
"How much pain does it take to write such lyrics and sing such a song?"
"Wang Sisi, I know you are watching, and I advise you to hand over Wen Zheng as soon as possible and give up resistance."
…
While there was a lot of discussion on the barrage, the judges also spoke.
Judge No. 1 didn't say much. After some praise, he gave full marks very neatly.
The same goes for Judge No. 2.
When it was the turn of judge No. 3, she frowned and said: "It is undeniable that your performance today is very good, no worse than Lin Qi, or even Wen Zheng. But there is something I have to remind you, in terms of emotional control, sometimes it is too difficult to sit in the seat by yourself.
It’s not good to be too deep.”
"Our judge teacher reminded you about this during the last resurrection competition. I can tell that if this song is another minute longer, you will definitely not be able to sing it. I will deduct 0.5 points from you for the time being. I want to tell you
Your point is, the competition is important, but your body deserves more attention. I don’t want you to be depressed alone after you go back every time you finish singing. So, my score for you is, ninety-nine point five.
.”
Judge No. 4 sighed and said slowly: "The song is very nice, and your singing style has gradually matured. First of all, congratulations on finding your own way. Overall, your performance is perfect. I also agree with what Judge No. 3 said."
He looked down at the score sheet and said in a deep voice: "Taking all things into consideration, I'll give you ninety-six points."
Judge No. 5 continued: "The lyrics, music and even the arrangement of the entire song are great, especially in the second half. The control of strong emotions is superb. It can be seen that you have worked hard."
"Your own singing voice is grand and three-dimensional, with the shock of the crashing waves on the shore, and the resentment and unwillingness when you cry. I think no one can cover this song. But it is still a matter of emotional expression. In fact, you mastered the second half
It's still a bit forced, and the emotional expression is too much, so I can only give you ninety-five points."
In the end, Ye Xiaoxue jumped to third place with a final score of 98.5 points.
The first game of the finals ended perfectly, and the performance rankings of all players have been calculated:
The first place, Wen Zheng, scored 100 points. He accumulated 9 points.
Second place, Lin Qi, scored 98.66 points, with 8 points.
Third place, Ye Xiaoxue, scored 98.5 points and 7 points.
Fourth place, Chen Rui, scored 95 points and 6 points.
Fifth place, Tang Yong, 89 points. 5 points.
Sixth place, Jia Wen, 86 points. 4 points.
Seventh place, Zhou He, 85 points. 3 points.
Eighth place, Liu Jingyue, 84.33 points. 2 points.
Ninth place, Shang Yingying, 83 points. 1 point.
Backstage.
Lin Qi couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief when she saw that she had defeated Ye Xiaoxue with a slight advantage of 0.16 points.
Just now she thought she was going to lose to Ye Xiaoxue. She didn't expect that the score gap between the judges would be so big, but she quite agreed with what the judges said.
If Ye Xiaoxue continues in this state, she may become depressed sooner or later.
She shook her head and sighed in an old-fashioned way, then turned to look at Wen Zheng, raised her eyebrows and said, "How is it? I win, right? Are you..."
Before he finished speaking, a staff member reminded: "Get ready to take the stage for the curtain call. There is not much time for commercials, so don't delay."
Being distracted like this, how could Wen Zheng not seize the opportunity and run away?
"stop!"
Lin Qi chased Wen Zheng and shouted, "I'm willing to admit defeat. If it doesn't work out, let me give you a knock on the head, and this matter will be wiped out."
Wen Zheng, who was running wildly, turned around suddenly and said in feigned anger: "How dare you, you evil villain! You still dare to knock my brains out?"
Lin Qi, who was chasing after him, ran into Wen Zheng's arms and hugged him. After letting go of his hand, he smiled and said, "I originally wanted to carry you away. But I can't carry you, hahaha... Okay, I've written it off."
Wen Zheng laughed and asked, "Is this what you call a violent beating?"
"Otherwise?"
Lin Qi tilted her head, looking innocent.
Wen Zheng suddenly couldn't laugh or cry. He raised his hand and rubbed her head, and said with a smile: "Let's go to the stage to show off. After that, we will go out to find food."
The two were about to leave when they heard someone behind them mockingly: "Scumbag."
Lin Qi was about to have a seizure subconsciously. She looked back, then stepped back with a dry smile.
