Chapter 519 Personal Characteristics
PS: Just one chapter today, don't wait.

"Qin Shi Mingyue...Han Shiguan..."

"Ka...Brother Jie, it didn't feel right just now, let's do it again."

Shen Fang said facing Zhang Jie inside the recording room.

After Zhang Jie practiced in it several times, Shen Fang didn't feel quite right.Let Zhang Jie come out through the intercom, and then called Tan Weiwei who is familiar with the song next door, and the three of them were going to rearrange the song.

Time enters December, the weather clears up and the weather starts to warm up.After Shen Fang's mother got used to it for a while, she was in good health.So I called Tan Weiwei and Zhang Jie to find them, and gave the song "A Bridge of Fate" to them.

The first four sentences of this song quote Wang Changling's "Out of the Frontier" in Tang poetry, which is an ancient poem that is familiar to all Chinese people.With the charm of this ancient poem, how can the following lyrics match this classic poem.

Thanks to learning from his grandfather since he was a child, Shen Fang has a good foundation in Chinese studies. From writing scenery (by the Wuding River) to writing people (no words to the sky) and finally to writing history (pen knife spring and autumn), it perfectly takes over the ancient poem "Out of the Fortress".

In terms of the arrangement of this song, Shen Fang also borrowed a large number of traditional musical instruments, including Guzheng, Yangqin, Yueqin, bamboo flute, and Qinqiang accompaniment using Banhu and Bangzi. The whole song is full of Chinese style from lyrics to music.

But it was this kind of soundtrack that caused Zhang Jie some difficulties.There is no problem with Zhang Jie's overall singing skills. His vocal range is at the forefront among many male singers in China, but he has made a lot less attempts at opera, not even as good as Tan Weiwei.

After performing two Qin Opera songs, Tan Weiwei became very interested in this kind of local opera from the northern Shaanxi region, and she would take time to practice Qin Opera when she was free.

The pronunciation method of Qin Opera, which is close to the limit of the human voice, can be regarded as a good promotion for her treble practice.So in this song, she basically has no problem singing the treble part, and her problem is mainly in the front part.

The three of them came to a studio next to the recording studio for discussion, and Han Xiao, who came to practice today, also followed.She was going to participate in the New Year's concert in Times Square in New York on New Year's Day. Shen Fang gave her an English song. She has been intensively practicing recently, and there is not much time left for her training.

Shen Fang said to Zhang Jie and Tan Weiwei: "Although the first four lines of this song use two lines of ancient poems that everyone is familiar with, in terms of singing method, I hope it can be close to opera. Especially the last two lines" The Flying General of Dragon City is here, not called Huma Duyinshan.' The first sentence must be able to go up, and the second sentence must be able to fall. In addition, in the latter sentence'not called Huma', it is best to stop for two beats here. Brother Jie , your voice is alright, even if you can raise the key a little higher, it's still not tactful enough."

Looking at Zhang Jie thoughtfully, Shen Fang continued: "If all the singing is performed with high notes, you may be able to achieve a deafening effect with the penetrating power of your voice, Brother Jie, but the Huaxia style is gone, and there is still a lack of it. That desolation."

"A feeling of desolation?" Zhang Jie felt as if he had overlooked something. He had been singing according to the pitch of the music score, and he used the high notes as if showing some skill.But just like what Shen Fang said, the first four lines of poems come from "Out of the Frontier", which must show the desolate loneliness of the desert.For songs without pictures, this requires the singer to bring the audience into this feeling through his own timbre adjustment.

Seeing Zhang Jie pondering aside, Shen Fang said to Tan Weiwei: "Although the tones of 'Qin Opera' are used in this song, more of 'Angriness' is used instead of 'Gaoqiang' and 'Shouting'. ’, like ‘Wolf Smoke Thousands of Miles’ here is to use the ‘angry tone’, which puts the first accent on the first word ‘wolf’.”

There are many singing styles of "Qin Opera", among which the most important ones are high-pitched, angry, shouting, etc. In the past, the two songs of "Huayin Old Tune" that Shen Fang gave to Tan Weiwei were all based on "high-pitched", "shouting and singing". Mainly.Those two songs need to show the height of her voice, but this song "A Bridge of Fate" needs to use "angry sound", mainly to show the thickness of her voice, and more to use the second half of her voice to pronounce.

After communicating with Shen Fang, the two went to occupy a practice room next door to continue exploring and training.Although both Zhang Jie and Tan Weiwei are long-established professional singers, Shen Fang showed a musical quality not inferior to them.Because this song was written by Shen Fang, to what extent it needs to be expressed, Shen has his own judgment in his heart.

After the two left, Shen Fang began to let Han Xiao enter the recording studio to audition, and corrected her pronunciation problems.

Tan Weiwei, Zhang Jie and Han Xiao are all talented singers, but they are different from each other.Zhang Jie was born as a draft singer, but after ten years of ups and downs, he was recognized by the outside world with his own strength.He has a clear understanding of the characteristics of his own voice and the limits of his own abilities. He knows how far he can express himself after he gets a song.So when he discussed with Shen Fang, he also had a little bit of sophistication, to see how well Shen Fang knew him, and whether he needed to adjust the score and style of music.

Tan Weiwei is a singer who is more convinced by Shen Fang. Although she is also a talent show, she has always been carefree. After several cooperations, she admires Shen Fang and has never questioned it.Shen Fang instructed her to pronounce with the back of her voice, and she directly practiced angry sounds.Singing this song after practice is more handy, and it can express the hearty pleasure in it.

However, Han Xiao is different from the two of them. Her musical style has not yet been fully finalized. In Shen Fang's view, she is still a sophomore and has a broader prospect than Zhang Jie and Tan Weiwei.Her vocal range is more developable than Zhang Jie and more vigorous than Tan Weiwei.And the metal-like penetration in her treble is unmatched by Shen Fang himself.It can be seen from the treble part of the song "Dream It Possible".

She has received an invitation letter for the 2th Grammy Awards Ceremony to be held in Los Angeles on February 8 next year. With the song "Dream It Possible", Han Xiao has won "Best Newcomer of the Year", "Best of the Year" Nominated for three awards: Best Female Artist" and "Single of the Year".The last two items are estimated to be just a formality.

Although it is known as the purest music award, it is impossible for Grammy to award any of the three major awards of single, album and singer to a Chinese.So the company mainly gave Han Xiao the "Best Newcomer of the Year" award for public relations.

In order to help Han Xiao with public relations, besides Tang Yuan, Qu Xiaoxiao and Linda from Yehu Shanghai Company also joined her behind-the-scenes think tank.Throughout December, she will accept exclusive interviews from three American music magazines, and the company helped Han Xiao get tickets for the 2015 Times Square New Year's Eve concert, and she will participate in this performance as a guest performer.

And the song that Shen released to Han Xiao this time is for her to perform at the New Year's concert.This song is different from the previous few capitals. This is a slow song, a lyrical song. It is very soothing in the front, as if telling a story in your ear, but it is very passionate at the climax, which is a kind of intense Inquiry, a kind of confession, even a kind of confession.

This requires Han Xiao to be able to immerse himself in the meaning of the lyrics, and then grasp the emotions little by little.Moreover, this time the song needs to be able to have a slightly hoarse voice, the tail sound should be thicker, and the treble should have a metal-like penetrating power. This is a test for her. According to the requirements of release, she will definitely be able to surprise everyone at this New Year's Eve concert.

Although Han Xiao is still unable to fully grasp this characteristic in her voice, Shen Fang believes that she will be able to do it.During her continuous vocal practice, Shen Fang's ability to distinguish intonation is beyond ordinary people, and she can clearly discern the incomparable energy contained in her voice, but she has not yet mastered it proficiently.

This is also one of the reasons why Shen Fang has been persuading her to study for a longer period of time in school, that is, to amplify and shape all parts of her timbre so that she can perfectly master her own timbre characteristics.I hope she can bring herself a new surprise and bring a greater impact to the world music scene.

Upstairs, several musicians were discussing music, while downstairs in Qin Mohan's office, several artists were discussing their own development.

Qin Mohan looked at Li Qing who was reclining on the sofa with no image in front of him, and handed her a cup of coffee: "Have a cup of coffee to refresh yourself. Li Qing, you have worked too hard this year. According to your schedule, " The Great Qin Empire has just ended, and you are about to join the crew of "The Pretender", and after the filming of "The Chronicles of Qingyun" and "The Lonely Empty Court Spring Desire Evening", you will be on the crew for the entire first half of 15 years stay here."

Originally, Cai Yinong was going to keep the role of Lu Xueqi in "The Chronicles of the Clouds" for Gu Xuan, but Gu Xuan clearly refused. She has already filmed several puppet dramas, and she wants to change.Li Qing, who finally read the script, volunteered to try the role of Lu Xueqi.

Li Qing stretched out his hand to touch his face, then turned to the two good sisters sitting across from him, and couldn't help saying, "Don't worry. I'm older than both of you. It’s hard to get these opportunities this year, if you don’t work hard to seize them, I’m afraid you two will be left behind.”

Gu Xuan put down the coffee and came to her side, reaching out to scratch her: "You girl is a bit dishonest, among the three of us, I'm the one with the lowest coffee position, okay? Needless to say, Mo Han, wait until Ge After Les Mills sang live, he became an international star immediately, and your "Small Smile" will be released next year, and you will definitely be a popular little flower."

Qin Mohan originally wanted to tickle Li Qing, but after hearing Gu Xuan's words, the two of them immediately began to punish Gu Xuan, and then provoked the two to fight back at the same time, and there was a moment of frolic.

Both Qin Mohan and Gu Xuan knew Li Qing's sense of crisis. She had a very high starting point and entered the industry as one of the three leading actors in Li Shaohong's "Dream of Red Mansions", but she has been tepid since then.And Liang Hui, who played a supporting role in this drama at the beginning, has become a superstar. At that time, Bao Xiaoying, who could only be regarded as a group performer in this drama, also won the honor of "Golden Eagle Goddess". Not surprisingly, her future resources It will also be Transcendent A Grade.

So last year, after the wild fox took a stake in Rong Zhixin, Li Qing saw an opportunity, and Rong Zhixin gradually trained her as a first sister, and his original intention to change jobs also faded.There are a lot of resources, but you have to be able to support yourself. In order to be worthy of the title of Rong Zhixin's first sister, Li Qing had to fight.

Li Qing's worry is that Gu Xuan doesn't feel this way yet. She just graduated last year and she still doesn't feel the pressure of newcomers wanting to grab a seat.Although there are many actresses in Yiren Film and Television, they are basically the same age as her, and she has the aura of Qin Mohan's best best friend. The resources Cai Yinong gives her are basically A-level or above. Yao or Ying Er, neither can surpass her.

In the first half of next year, Gu Xuan's partner Qi Wei will play "Hello Qiao An" and "Legend of Qingqiu" produced by Yi Ren. Although the former is not the heroine, but the role is very important, the latter is a group play , based on the story of the fox fairy in "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio", Cai Yinong plans to pack all the Xiaosheng Xiaohua of Yiren Film and Television into this drama, and Gu Xuan is the heroine in one of the most brilliant stories.

In fact, even if she is not the leading role in these two dramas, Gu Xuan is not in a hurry.This year, she first participated in "The Master", and then starred in "The Year in a Hurry", which made her truly realize the difference between the original movie cafe and the TV cafe.

You have to shoot dozens of episodes in two or three months for a TV series, and the director will pass it on to you as long as your acting skills are a little passable.But shooting a movie is different. For a scene, the director can shoot repeatedly for a day or two, polishing the details a little bit.Every time there is a "click", you will come over and reflect on it carefully, and then re-shoot.

And the crew of the film seems to have gotten used to this kind of operation. Even if a shot is repeated more than a dozen times, the lighting, photography, and props are still step by step, and they are not in a hurry.It's not like filming a TV series in Hengdian, just like an assembly line. If this scene is delayed for a while, a drama manager will come over to urge it immediately.

When Gu Xuan was filming "The Master", she was amazed by the meticulous acting skills of Liao Fan and Jin Shijie. Even the amorous feelings shown by the heroine Song Jia shocked her. Is this the feeling of making a movie?Such superb acting skills, she asked herself that she still couldn't show it, so she could only learn from it silently.

When filming "The Year in a Hurry", she increased her thinking about the role and carefully prepared the biography of the character, so after filming "The Year in a Hurry", she can obviously feel that her acting skills have improved.
