That's how I became famous

Chapter 518 Spring Festival Gala (End)

After Li Xiao on TV finished singing, the girl withdrew her attention a little and hurriedly asked, "Grandma, is he singing well?"

Just now grandma said that although this baby is handsome, he may not have the ability to sing on stage by himself.

After one song, with Li Xiao's excellence, she believes that grandma will definitely change.

Looking at the slightly excited granddaughter, grandma hesitated, "...I don't understand."

That's right, the elderly generally don't understand this kind of pop songs, so it's hard to say whether they like Amway or not. Girls are not discouraged, and they plan to change the target of Amway to their parents.

Grandma straightened her presbyopic glasses, narrowed her eyes slightly, and said with a smile: "However, this kid seems to be quite capable. I don't think he was nervous at all after he came on stage, although I can't understand his singing. But looking at the lyrics and listening to the song, I feel like it’s okay!"

"Grandma~ His name is Li Xiao!" Amway should be considered a success, the girl hugged her grandma's arm and acted like a baby.

This scene was shown in many families, and the young people were all admiring the young man on TV to the elders in their families.

Those who succeeded in Amway smiled, and those who did not succeed in Amway did not feel distressed, and shifted the object with a smile.

Li Xiao is so outstanding, he deserves more people to like him!
On the Internet, no matter which website forum netizens, they turned into Xiao Chui one after another.

"In the past, I always felt that Li Xiao was being praised too much, so I naturally ignored his information. This year's Spring Festival Gala was very well-prepared. I watched it out of the excitement. I regret that I didn't listen to it sooner. Li Xiao's song."

"To put it bluntly, thanks to Li Xiao's song "Blue and White Porcelain", it saved a lot of word of mouth for the Spring Festival Gala."

"This song "Blue and White Porcelain" is definitely a representative work in Hua Guofeng in the future. Both the lyrics and music are written very well."

"Li Xiao's Hua Guofeng seems to be telling a story, and this song "Blue and White Porcelain" also tells a story."

"Unfortunately, the Spring Festival Gala is not "Singer and Composer". Li Xiao obviously can't explain this song on stage."

"Oh my god, I'm really sore for being a man. Why is there such a perfect person in this world? Even if he sings well, he's also handsome."

"He is really the perfect protagonist in a novel or movie."

"This year's Spring Festival Gala has been pretty good so far, especially this song "Blue and White Porcelain" by Li Xiao."

"Yes, yes, yes, I want to praise the Spring Festival Gala program group. Thanks to their courage, Li Xiao was able to sing two solos!"

"The second song is "When You Are Old". Judging from the name, it seems to be a warm love song. I am looking forward to it!"

CCTV No. [-] studio hall.

On the stage, Li Xiao had already left the stage, and the host was talking festive words on the stage.

There are several bigwigs sitting in the front row of the auditorium.

"This young man is good. He sings well and writes songs well. The lyrics and music have a strong flavor of our Huaguo." A big man said.

"Yes, yes, this young man is doing very well!"

Everyone responded one after another.

The Spring Festival Gala has just started, and many bigwigs have expressed their approval. As the general manager, Gui Jianming is naturally full of joy, and he has already started thinking about how to reward the staff in the stage.

In the monitoring room in the background, Fu Yuankang, who was in charge of the overall situation, was finally really relieved after hearing the staff's report, and at the same time began to look forward to it in his heart.

So far, the ratings of Li Xiao's performance have broken the highest ratings of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala in the past five years, and the ratings of the first few programs are also slightly higher than in previous years.

With such a result, Fu Yuankang can say that he is not in a panic anymore. What he should look forward to now is how high the final ratings will be.

But happy to be happy, as a leader, you still have to be quiet.

He told the staff: "Continue to check carefully to ensure that there will be no accidents on the stage."

After speaking, he looked at Cai Zhuohua next to him, and said with emotion in a low voice: "Zhuo Hua, we are completely stable now."

Cai Zhuohua tried his best to pretend to be calm, but just nodded. In fact, he was even more happy than Director Fu.

He invited Li Xiao out of the ordinary, announced Li Xiao's participation in the Spring Festival Gala in advance, and then proposed to add another solo for Li Xiao later, all of which can be said to be his credit.

Good at employing people, bold and careful, courageous, capable and thoughtful Cai Zhuohua guessed in his heart what his superiors would say when he praised him, but on the surface he didn't show too much emotion, just a faint smile on his face.

Some staff took a peek at the two directors and found that although the directors were happy, they still looked calm and composed, and they couldn't help admiring them.

Leaders deserve to be leaders.

Back in the lounge, Li Xiao was greeted by the fanatical worship of the two brainless fans.

Lin Cheng: "Brother, you are really amazing, the stage of the Spring Festival Gala is completely held by you alone!"

Jin Hanyu: "This song Hua Guofeng is really amazing."

The faces of both of them were a little red with excitement, and they looked proud.

Don't talk about it, it's the first time I've experienced a stage with such low cheers. When I was performing, I even thought I might have made a mistake. Li Xiao had a smile on his face, not surprised, but in fact he complained endlessly.

There are two types of seats for the audience in the Spring Festival Gala, one is round table seats, and the other is ordinary seats for watching movies.

The seats at the round table are closer to the stage, and the audience at the seats at the round table are people of status and status, such as sponsors of the Spring Festival Gala, model workers, various leading military officers, and some people who have contributed to society.

Another kind of ordinary seat is estimated to be either the family members of CCTV staff or the family members of performers.

Li Xiao also had a few tickets, but his family didn't want to go, so he didn't.

The audience at the scene may be organized, and they only applaud during the performance. If they can't help cheering, they have to lower their voices.

Therefore, Li Xiao, who has experienced various stages, has a very strong sense of gap.

Even for "Singer and Composer", there are only more than 100 spectators, and the roaring voice is more enthusiastic and intense than the Spring Festival Gala.

As if seeing what Li Xiao was thinking, Mo Wan, who has experience in the Spring Festival Gala, smiled and explained: "You sang very well just now, and the stage lighting is also in place, but the Spring Festival Gala has requirements, and the audience can't scream like fans. Most of the audience sitting in the front row are some leaders."

Hearing what the Great Demon King said, Lin Cheng and Jin Hanyu looked at each other, only to realize that they had made a mistake in boasting, no wonder the little brother didn't say a word just now.

Why hold the stage, the audience didn't have much reaction at all, okay?

The two of them remained silent, and the atmosphere was silent for a moment.

In fact, Li Xiao is not thinking about the stage at all, he wants to go home
After returning, he looked at his mobile phone, and Fang Bianmian sent a photo. In the photo, everyone was staring intently at the TV. It was obvious that he was singing on the stage.

This feeling is very strange, he just wants to go home early.

Unfortunately, he probably will have to wait for a while.

After more than an hour, everyone in the lounge except Lin Cheng and Jin Hanyu went on stage once.

Some still had shows, some didn't, but they didn't leave because they made a dinner appointment, apparently waiting for everyone to finish.

Lin Cheng and Jin Hanyu were about to take the stage, and they became nervous again.

You must be lip-syncing, right?There's no need to be nervous about lip-syncing. Li Xiao was a little speechless, but he still comforted the two, "Don't be nervous, it's no big deal, just treat it as an ordinary stage."

The two were about to be grateful, they patted their chests and said that they were definitely not nervous and would definitely perform well.

I heard Li Xiao say again: "Besides, the audience in the audience may not necessarily look at you, even if their eyes are in your direction, they are probably just looking at the stage lights."

Fang Yao was the most straightforward, he sneered, "I said, you should be lip-syncing, why should you be nervous about lip-syncing?"

Lin Cheng and Jin Hanyu's faces collapsed, they were indeed lip-syncing
When the others couldn't help laughing, the staff opened the door and said, "Lin Cheng and Jin Hanyu, you need to prepare."

The tone of the staff is like a nurse from the hospital coming to inform the patient, "Hey, it's your turn to get an injection."

Perhaps because they listened to Fang Yao's blunt words, the two seemed to have calmed down a lot, got up and went out with the staff.

Mo Wan looked at her phone, looked at Li Xiao and said, "The Internet is full of discussions about your song again."

If I answer 'um', it will appear that I am cold, and if I answer 'nothing', my songs are indeed being discussed on the Internet, which makes me appear hypocritical. Li Xiao was speechless for a while.

When he was thinking about how to answer, Fang Yao hesitated for a moment, and asked with some difficulty: "How do you write your Chinese style?"

Maybe he thought it was bad to ask like this, so he said again: "I just ask casually."

After Zhang Yi and his partner heard this, they immediately focused on Li Xiao. How did Hua Guofeng write?This is a question that almost everyone in the pop music circle is thinking about.

It was written in the dream. Obviously, Li Xiao couldn't say it outright, so he pondered: "If you insist on asking me to set a standard, it would be 'Three Ancients and Three New'."

"Wait a moment."

Mo Wan raised her hand and asked like a student, "Can I record it?"

"of course can."

Li Xiao sat upright, "In my understanding, Huaguofeng is a unique music genre of Huaguo that combines the three ancient and three new (ancient rhetoric, ancient culture, ancient melody, new singing, new arrangement, and new concept).

The lyrics have the cultural connotation of Huaguo, using new singing and arrangement techniques to enhance the atmosphere of the song. The song combines the nostalgic Huaguo background with the current rhythm to produce song styles such as implicit, melancholy, elegant, and light. "

Everyone nodded their head frequently, and what they need most is theoretical support for the things they have just started to explore.

Without theoretical support, even if they have profound musical and cultural background, they can't easily grasp the core of Hua Guofeng.

At this time, Fang Yao asked a question very sharply: "But your song "Fireworks Are Cold" didn't use traditional Chinese musical instruments, so is this kind of Chinese style?"

Others looked at Li Xiao curiously. Who would have known that the rest room at the backstage of the Spring Festival Gala had turned into "Mr. Li Hua Guofeng's Small Classroom".

"Calculate."

Li Xiao nodded, "I divide the atmosphere of Huaguo style into two categories. Chinese style is divided into pure Chinese style and near Chinese style. Pure Chinese style is a song that meets the above six conditions; near Chinese style is a song that cannot meet certain conditions. Songs that are satisfying and very close to pure Chinese style, the version of "Fireworks Easy to be Cold" with piano, guitar, and drum accompaniment is classified into this category by me."

Everyone was fascinated by what they heard, and they all began to ponder.

Seeing this, Li Xiao said again: "This is my personal opinion. Hua Guofeng still has a long way to go, and many things can be used."

Fang Yao frowned, and snorted: "You created Hua Guofeng, so it's not personal opinion."

In his opinion, Li Xiao is just pretending, he is the patriarch, but he is like a knocker with a half bucket of water.

Others also nodded in agreement. There have been many Hua Guofengs in the circle during this period, and even they have tried it, but they have never seen anyone whose Hua Guofeng is as effective as Li Xiao's Hua Guofeng charm.

Li Xiao was embarrassed, Lin Cheng and Jin Hanyu opened the door and came back.

Lin Cheng asked excitedly: "Brother, how is our performance?"

I don’t know, I didn’t watch it. Also, have you guys forgotten that you faked it? Li Xiao gave a thumbs up and praised with a smile: “It’s awesome, you performed really well.”

The idol praised them, the smiles on their faces couldn't be restrained, and they looked at the others with questioning eyes.

Mo Wan nodded and gave her a thumbs up.

Zhang Yi and his partner said at the same time: "It's really great."

Even Fang Yao, who is upright, nodded against his heart. Although they were not pleasing to the eye, after all, we sat and chatted in the room all night, and we couldn't tell them bluntly - we are not interested in watching your show, right?

Not long after, the same staff member opened the door and said, "Brother, it will be your turn soon, do you need to make up for it?"

"Yes." Li Xiao stood up as he said that, it doesn't matter whether he touches up the makeup or not, he just doesn't want to continue to praise the two against his conscience.

Lin Cheng and Jin Hanyu cheerfully waved to Li Xiao as cheering signs, but they didn't notice the difference in the staff's attitude when calling them and calling Li Xiao.

With a touch of makeup on his face, Li Xiao edited a Weibo while waiting to go on stage.

"When You Are Old" is a song for my grandparents and my girlfriend. This song sings about the love of my grandparents, and it is also the love I hope. When you are old, I will still be there for you Sing this song."

The latter sentence was said to Fang Bianmian.

On the stage, the host was generous and said with a smile: "The song to be sung next is called "When You Are Old". Welcome Li Xiao!"

At this time, the stage was under warm lighting, and Li Xiao changed into a slightly more mature suit.

When the prelude sounded, he closed his eyes and sang affectionately.

[When you are old and your hair is gray
drowsy
When you are old
gray hair
drowsy
When you are old
can't walk
napping by the fire

Reminiscence of youth]

As soon as he opened his mouth, the audience was moved.

Such an affectionate voice was sung by this young man?
Some photos appeared on the big screen on the stage. They were photos taken by Li Xiao, and photos of grandparents, all of which were back photos.

In the photo, there is a back view of two elderly people holding hands and walking in the sunset, and there is a photo of resting on a bench leaning on each other.

【How many people have loved you when you were young and happy
admire your beauty
false or true

Only one person still loves your pious soul
Love the wrinkles on your old face]

The photos on the screen flashed one by one, and finally a profile photo with a little appearance appeared. In the photo, the two old people stared at each other with smiles at the corners of their mouths.

Countless people yearn for and look forward to the love that lasts forever. This song warms my heart.

When Li Xiao sang here, he remembered the conversation between his grandparents.

Grandma: "Old man, I am so old, have you ever thought of finding a young one?"

Grandpa said in a low voice, "I'm not looking for you. I don't like you because I want you to look good. Besides, what I love is your person, not your face. Also, my wrinkles and white hair can't be hidden anymore? Old lady, I love you!" Ask you, have you ever thought about finding a young one?"

Li Xiao, who was eavesdropping at the time, didn't think too much except marveling at the boldness of the conversation between the two old people. Now that he is an adult, when he thinks about this conversation again, he can taste a lot of charm after careful consideration.

[When you are old
drooping eyebrows
dim lights
the wind blows over
your news
This is the song in my heart]

As he sang, a smile appeared on the corner of Li Xiao's mouth.

He was thinking about his and Fang Bianmian's life in the future, could they be like their grandparents, not caring about each other's aging face?

Li Xiao thinks that Fang Bianmian will definitely care, isn't she just trying to make herself handsome? !

【When I am old
i wish
This song is for you]

The affectionate singing stopped, and a photo was frozen on the screen, but it was not the two old people from before.

The audience watching the live broadcast instantly recognized these two figures from the back, this is Li Xiao and his girlfriend!
It's really too bad, to give everyone another mouthful of dog food while singing.

PS: When You Are Old - Zhao Zhao, the lyrics are translated from the poems of William Butler Yeats.
