Chapter 174 Arrived at the program group of "The God of Masked Singer"!

"It's interesting, let me see what is going on with his song first."

Huang Xiang said while connecting the USB flash drive to the computer.

After opening the folder in the USB flash drive, Huang Xiang saw all the information of the song, as well as the demo audio file attached separately.

However, he didn't rush to click on the demo to try it out, but first read the lyrics and music information of the song.

"Under the flying clouds?"

"The title of this song has a good mood."

"The lyrics and music are all written by Xiao Ning..."

"A new song?"

Although in order to keep their identities more secret, some guests sang unreleased new songs when they participated in "The God of Masked Singer", but this is a minority after all, and most of them are covers of other singers' works .

Because new songs are relatively rare, when Huang Xiang discovered that Xiao Ning was about to sing a new song, his curiosity suddenly became even greater.

He quickly set his sights on the lyrics.

Looking at it, his two eyebrows frowned slightly.

The lyrics are very nice.

The artistic conception completely matches the artistic conception of the song title, perfectly expressing the mentality that a firm dreamer should have.

In today's Chinese music scene with the theme of "love", this song "Under the Flying Clouds" is simply a breath of fresh air.

The lyrics of this song make Huang Xiang very eye-catching in terms of conception, rhyme, and overall artistic conception.

Even if this song is just reading the lyrics now, in Huang Xiang's view, since this song can have such excellent lyrics, then the whole can never be a mediocre work.

Satisfied He is very satisfied, that is...

It's hard not to remind him of a rumor in the circle about the content of this song.

Xiao Ning likes to get creative inspiration through extreme sports!

And the other party just set a new world record for low-altitude skydiving at the Twin Towers in Jiangcheng yesterday!
Even if the popularity of this incident has reached the present, the ranking is still high on the hot search lists of major online platforms.

It's fine if you don't have this.

It just so happened that Huang Xiang knew about it.

It was hard not to let him associate this song with Xiao Ning's low-altitude skydiving yesterday.

"So that rumor is probably true..."

"This Xiao Ning, I'm afraid he really stimulated his creative inspiration through that rather extreme method."

"The world is full of wonders. I've seen all kinds of strange stars. This is the first time I've encountered such a strange thing as Xiao Ning."

After the shock in my heart gradually subsided.

Huang Xiang then clicked on the audio file attached at the end of the folder and played the demo.

After listening to the demo that lasted more than one minute.

Huang Xiang didn't speak for a long time.

Until now, he finally understood why Xuanji had to take the initiative to provide this demo.

"The reason why they deliberately offered this demo..."

"It's because they are worried that we won't believe that this song was sung by Xiao Ning alone..."

Huang Xiang held his forehead speechlessly, then frowned.

"But even after listening..."

"I still don't believe that Xiao Ning sang this song alone!"

"This song shouldn't be sung by Xiao Ning!"

Even though they knew that Xuanji was a top-tier company in the industry, and Xiao Ning was a singer whose popularity was approaching the top-tier, it was impossible for them to deceive the program crew about this kind of thing.

After all, when the time comes for the show to be recorded, Xiao Ning will have to actually sing on stage. If he cheats on the show crew, it will be impossible to show his secrets when the time comes.

But even if there was such a situation first, what Huang Xiang heard from the more than one minute demo really made it hard for him to believe that the vocals here were all sung by Xiao Ning.

Even though he had no contact with Xiao Ning before, it was hard for him not to pay attention to Xiao Ning, who has been trending all the time in recent months.

So in fact, he has heard many of Xiao Ning's previous songs.

However, the vocals in this demo, whether it is timbre or some technical things, seem to have nothing to do with Xiao Ning at first.

The singing method is very advanced, the voice is very distinctive, and the skills are quite top-notch.

But after adding all the factors together, this top-notch singing ability is obviously better than Xiao Ning's songs before.

not to mention……

The vocals in this song are male and female!
However, according to the current situation, these two parts are sung by Xiao Ning alone!

This is so outrageous.

Really outrageous!

It takes time for a singer to improve his singing skills. How can he improve so rapidly in such a short period of time?

Even if you don't think about it, you just think that Xiao Ning is a genius because of epiphany...

But even if you can change the timbre, it's hard to completely change it!
But in this demo of "Under the Flying Clouds", the male voice part can still hear some shadow of Xiao Ning.

What the hell is that female voice?

You told me it was sung by Xiao Ning?

How is this possible?

Huang Xiang, who feels that all this is against common sense, has even begun to wonder if technology was added to the recording of this demo.

"Did he record the demo with a voice changer?"

"A million tuners?"

"Technology and hard work?"

After a series of question marks popped up in his mind, Huang Xiang directly handed the headset to Wang Wanru who was beside him.

"Xiao Wang, listen to this demo."

After a while, Wang Wanru finished listening with complicated emotions, just like Huang Xiang who had just listened to the demo.

"Xiao Wang, do you think...the two voices over here seem to be sung by Xiao Ning?"

After hesitating for a moment, Wang Wanru shook her head and said, "The words of the male voice are still a bit shadowy, and the timbre is somewhat similar, but the female voice..."

"This kind of unique timbre, this kind of neutral and female vocal recognition, with all due respect, even if it is singled out in the Chinese music scene, I am afraid that there are not many female singers who can compete... If it takes time to make a direct debut, this voice alone Guaranteed to become a second-tier upstream or even a first-tier singer.”

What Wang Wanru said was actually exactly what Huang Xiang thought.

But no matter how unbelievable and outrageous this matter seems, after all, the recording of the program will officially start the day after tomorrow!

Even if Xiao Ning had a brain twitch and decided to make a fake demo, or a demo processed by technology, Xuanji, as a well-known company in the industry, would definitely not follow him around!
What's more, this demo was submitted by Xuanji on her own initiative!
So the two vocals in the demo of "Under the Flying Clouds" can only be sung by Xiao Ning!
After a while, Huang Xiang, who was gradually recovering from the shock, suddenly had a smile on his face.

First, he roughly explained to Wang Wanru the conclusion that this song "Under the Flying Clouds" must have been sung by Xiao Ning, and could only be sung by Xiao Ning.

Then, with a smile on his face, he pointed his index finger at the desk and said, "Xiao Wang."

"Our season of "The Masked Singer" will probably be even more entertaining than previous seasons!"

"Don't talk about the audience."

"Now I am very much looking forward to what kind of performance Xiao Ning will have when the program is officially recorded the day after tomorrow."

……

12 month 19 day.

Xiao Ning took a few assistants, took the morning flight with Liu Weiwei, and arrived in Shanghai at noon.

After getting off the plane and leaving the airport, Modu TV Station had been waiting for a long time for the car to pick them up.

After eating something, the group went straight to Modu TV Station.

At 01:30 in the afternoon, Xiao Ning finally arrived at the program group of "The God of Masked Singer".

Different from those talent show music variety shows, "The God of Masked Singer" invites all famous singers.

Under normal circumstances, it is very difficult for second-tier singers to get the guest seats of "The God of Masked Singer".

Therefore, in this program of first-line singers per capita, Xiao Ning, who has a short debut time and a small number of works, is actually at the bottom of the group in terms of background and qualifications in the music industry.

But I can't stand him singing well, and the past few months have been hot enough.

So as soon as he arrived at the program group, he was directly invited by the chief director of the program Huang Xiang to meet him.

After meeting this well-known director in the field of variety shows for the first time, Xiao Ning's first reaction was surprise.

Although Huang Xiang is very well-known in the director circle, he can be regarded as a big man, but in fact, he is dedicated to his work and rarely shows himself in the public eye.

Not to mention that like some other directors, he goes to variety shows and talk shows from time to time to show his face. Under normal circumstances, Huang Xiang doesn't even do ordinary interviews.

Such a personality also led to relatively little public information about him on the Internet.

At least.

Xiao Ning really didn't know that Director Huang's height was only 1.5 meters.

Just saw Huang Xiang in the reception room of the TV station, and found that he had to lower his head to look at him, Xiao Ning very decisively sat on the sofa beside him before Huang Xiang said anything, and took the initiative to make a sound to let Huang Xiang Sitting on a chair higher than the sofa.

Although Xiao Ning also knew that it would be presumptuous for him to contact a big man whom he met for the first time like this, but it was better than the embarrassing situation where he kept looking down at the other person while talking to him.

After all, Huang Xiang is much older than Xiao Ning, and he has been in this circle for so many years, so he can see what Xiao Ning is thinking.

As for his height, it is naturally impossible to say that Huang Xiang doesn't care.

But what's the use of caring?

Huang Xiang, who has a very good family background, did not drink less milk powder and calcium tablets when he was young.

If you don't grow tall, you don't grow tall.

What can I do?

Huang Xiang, who was used to all kinds of eyes, felt that Xiao Ning was a very good guy in his heart.

At least this young man didn't pretend to ignore his height defect, but because of his height defect, he took the initiative to create a less embarrassing conversation atmosphere.

"Xiao Ning, it's your first time to participate in "The God of Masked Singer", and you are a rising star in the music circle, so I wanted to ask you to come over and have a chat."

"Don't be restrained, I mainly came to you to chat with you about the content of the show."

After Huang Xiang took the initiative to open the chatterbox, Xiao Ning responded neither humble nor overbearing.

The two chatted about the situation of this show, and while chatting, Huang Xiang brought the topic to "Under the Flying Clouds", a song that Xiao Ning will sing tomorrow.

"to be frank……"

"After receiving the demo from Xuanji yesterday, I couldn't believe it was actually sung by you."

"But now that I think about it, in order to participate in this show, you have even brought out such ruthless goods, which shows that you are still very serious about our show."

When Huang Xiang said this, Xiao Ning was thinking about a few words of humility, but the other party directly said something like this——

"Ahem, I have an unfeeling request, Xiao Ning, if possible, can you sing a few lines of this song a cappella?"

After saying this, Huang Xiang made a special gesture of looking around: "There are only the two of us in this reception room, and there is no one else."

Xiao Ning didn't have any psychological burden, after Huang Xiang made this request, he sang a few lines directly.

There are verses and choruses, as well as male and female parts.

After singing a few lines.

Huang Xiang, who was sitting on the chair, was stunned for several seconds before he could react.

Even though he had confirmed yesterday that the demo could only be sung by Xiao Ning himself.

The conclusions that can be drawn through reasoning are naturally far less shocking than seeing and hearing with one's own eyes.

With two male and female voices, the song "Under the Flying Clouds", which requires extremely high singing skills and quite complicated details, Xiao Ning can really control it perfectly!
No wonder he wrote such a choral song!

Now think about it!
Didn't he just prepare such a song for the program "The God of Masked Singer"?
I will sing this song on stage tomorrow, whether it is the judges or the audience.

Who the hell would have guessed that "Under the Flying Clouds" was sung by him?
The first round directly advanced steadily!

After taking a deep breath, Huang Xiang said with a smile on his face: "Although I know that the vocals of the demo are sung by you."

"But after you sang these few lines in front of me, I was still shocked."

"Xiao Ning, your current singing skills have improved a lot compared to the new song "Running" before."

After Xiao Ning brought up this topic with a few words of self-effacement, Huang Xiang immediately talked to Xiao Ning about the "Masked Singer" program.

Mainly some rules and details, as well as the specific details of tomorrow's recording.

After chatting for half an hour, Huang Xiang called the staff of the TV station and took Xiao Ning to the props and costumes group of the program group to make some preparations.

Because the program will be officially recorded tomorrow, Xiao Ning has to decide on the makeup, singing equipment, costumes, and props for the stage today.

Makeup, equipment, and clothing are all easy to talk about.

Xiao Ning doesn't pick these at all.

After all, as a handsome guy, even if he is not wearing clothes, he is still the most eye-catching boy on the stage.

This point can be seen from the [Xiao Ning's Abdominal Muscle] topic that was once ranked first on Weibo.

In addition, Xiao Ning came here with Liu Weiwei today, so after arriving at the props and costumes team, he directly entrusted Liu Weiwei to help him communicate with the TV station staff to determine the makeup and costumes.

But he also has something to do.

Other things can be decided by Liu Weiwei.

But the most important prop for The Masked Singer.

Xiao Ning wanted to pick one by himself.

The so-called "props" actually refers to this headgear with its own face.

of course.

If you don't like headgear, you can also use a mask, or just make a whole doll costume.

Anyway, as long as people can't recognize you visually, this is in line with the program rules of "The Masked Singer".

After being introduced by the staff, Xiao Ning chose for a long time in front of all the disguise props.

finally.

He settled on a mouse-headed duck doll set that looked like both a duck and a mouse.

"Since the purpose of choosing camouflage props is to better camouflage yourself."

"It must not be a simple mask or something."

"On the one hand, it is too ordinary, on the other hand, it is difficult to leave enough impression on people."

"This mouse-headed duck is very good."

"You can't see anything if you put it on directly, it's still a cartoon image."

"the most important is……"

"This thing is abstract enough!"

With the help of the staff, Xiao Ning went directly to the fitting room to try on the mouse-headed duck doll costume.

After gesticulating in the full-length mirror for a long time, Xiao Ning, who felt good, directly decided on this doll costume.

Just when he was about to cooperate with the staff to fill in the size information so that the clothing team could make some simple trimmings on the doll clothes.

Suddenly, a system beep sounded in my mind.

"Ding dong!"

"The new task has been issued!"
