I really don't want to be the top streamer anymore

There is certainly nothing wrong with Xu Kong's approach.

Be strict with yourself and lenient with others.

In fact, sometimes it can even be called a virtue.

But it does lack a lot of so-called program effects.

This is especially true after knowing Mao Zheyu's true identity.

Xu Kong didn't seem like a singer on a sharp review program, but rather like he was giving a lesson to Mao Zheyu.

In comparison, Feiniao was actually more interested in the two lines that Xu Kong had just sung live.

It’s a pity that Xu Kong is just a special guest who comes here simply to show his face, and he won’t be performing on stage or anything.

……

"Next, let us welcome the third singer of this episode..."

As Xu Kong finished his comments, the host came up and continued to control the situation and follow the process.

The third singer is also relatively famous.

As a first-line singer, or even a so-called potential king of singers, he had been nominated for the Best Male Singer in the three major domestic music awards many times before, but unfortunately he lost every time.

In terms of age, he is also the oldest among all the singers in the semi-finals.

To be honest, this show is almost entirely made up of young, new-generation faces.

At least among the recognized singers, Tan Hongyu was the only one who was over 40 years old.

But when it comes to music, apart from experience in live performances, talent is actually more important.

It doesn’t mean that you will be recognized just because you debuted early and have rich experience.

Especially when it comes to the mysterious audience appeal, sometimes some singers can live well their entire life relying on just one song.

Tan Hongyu is the type of person who, although somewhat famous, is familiar to the audience and they know that he is a singer with considerable strength.

But when it comes to bringing out their masterpieces, they can't find a single that can be called a big hit.

This is the most embarrassing point.

This is also the reason why Tan Hongyu chose to participate in this variety show.

It is almost impossible for him to gain attention and traffic simply by releasing songs.

Therefore, he has participated in quite a number of variety shows over the years. Although his singing skills and ability are not weak, he shows signs of developing into a variety show star.

……

“It’s still the same.”

"I don't know if the audience is tired of listening to it, but I am tired of listening to it."

"Even no matter what songs we choose, they all turn into talk-style songs when we sing them. It's really boring."

Fat Bird couldn't help but complain.

The music director standing by deeply agreed.

"I think you should go on stage and be a guest judge."

"It's possible that the scolding will make most of the audience feel comfortable."

It is naturally impossible for a fat bird to give face.

In fact, for some new singers, even if they don’t perform well, Fei Niao will still show some mercy.

At least you can see the other person's future potential.

After all, they are still young, and it’s nothing to make mistakes due to lack of experience and nervousness.

Mao Zheyu is one of these people.

The other party is only in his twenties and has plenty of time to improve.

……

But even the so-called seniors in the circle like Tan Hongyu have been living off their past success for many years.

To be honest, if it was going to be popular, it would have been popular a long time ago.

But after so many years, there has been almost no obvious change.

He also frequently participates in various variety shows.

Face scanning is annoying.

How can this be tolerated.

Fat Bird has already criticized this directly and without any disguise in his previous video.

Music industry veterans like Tan Hongyu should have stepped down long ago.

But he looks like he would rather die than live a miserable life, and still occupies the resources of S-level variety shows like "King of Masked Singer".

It is indeed the biggest obstacle hindering the development of the domestic music scene.

……

Although Tan Hongyu sang a hit single that has been very popular in recent years.

But in fact, when it comes to him, the style and taste of singing are completely changed.

This is not simply determined by the arrangement or something like that.

Rather, Tan Hongyu has fallen into a habitual way of performing.

He is completely stuck in his comfort zone and doesn't want to come out.

It's not as harsh as you want to say.

But every time before someone opens their mouth, it seems as if they already know how the other person is going to sing.

After listening to it, I didn't feel touched at all, as if I didn't hear it at all.

This is the most exaggerated.

The key point is that this method will not actually get a particularly low number of votes.

It was because of this method that Tan Hongyu was able to stay on the show until the semi-finals.

Of course, Fat Bird didn't fall for this trick from the very beginning.

But many other media judges will still choose to vote.

……

Sure enough, when the final vote count came out, Tan Hongyu still got 82 votes.

Although among the singers currently performing, he is still at the bottom.

But Fei Niao thinks that the other party should not be able to get more than 80 votes!

It’s a pity that although Mango TV has invited media judges like him.

But there are still quite a few, and in fact they are just representatives of traditional media.

Even many so-called traditional music critics are old acquaintances of Tan Hongyu.

I really fell for it.

At least in Feiniao's opinion, traditional music critics often take money from music companies and singers and then praise them awkwardly.

It should have been eliminated long ago.

These music critics rely on their so-called qualifications and connections, so they can still survive.

If they were asked to start over in the self-media track like me, they would probably be crushed by the current industry without leaving anything behind.

……

"I think your performance could be a little more innovative, teacher."

"Compared to the previous few games, I feel like there is nothing new about it."

"How should I put it? I'm a little tired of hearing it..."

During the review session, Feng Youan on the stage was the first to speak like this.

There was silence.

Obviously no one could have imagined that Feng Youan would be so bold to speak like that.

The fat bird couldn't help laughing.

OK OK.

Although Feng Youan probably said that just for the camera.

But I have to say that he really spoke the truth in his heart.

……

It was obvious that after Feng Youan finished speaking, although Tan Hongyu on the stage was wearing a hood, he did not say a word, and his face was probably completely black.

"No matter how well I sing, it's not your turn to teach me!"

Tan Hongyu seemed to be unable to bear it any longer, and finally spoke up and retorted.

But at this time, many people present, including Fei Niao, couldn't help but feel helpless.

Tan Hongyu has fallen into a trap!
After all, we're still recording the show and there are so many cameras pointing at us, so don't say that!

After the show is broadcast, these words alone will be enough to become the biggest negative news.

Tan Hongyu has been an artist for so many years, he must have some public relations awareness.

It was nothing more than thinking that Feng Youan, a junior who wasn't even a professional singer, actually said this about him, and of course he couldn't stand it. ...

"Of course I have no right to do so. I just said what I really felt in my heart."

"If you offend the teacher, please don't mind it."

Sure enough, Feng Youan had no intention of accepting the challenge.

It seems like he is admitting defeat, but it is more like putting the other party directly on the fire.

It was not until the host took the initiative to change the subject and smooth things over that the atmosphere finally eased.

As for the remaining few people, they obviously had no intention of participating. After saying a few words casually, they hurriedly ended their comments.

When it was Xu Kong's turn, Xu Kong certainly had no interest in getting involved in such things.

He didn't know either side, and he didn't have the mood to care about things that had nothing to do with him.

In his opinion, Tan Hongyu and Feng Youan are people who will hardly have any other interactions in the future.

So I just said a few quick words, saying that the singing was very good and there was nothing wrong with it, and then I moved on.

……

Feiniao was a little helpless. He had to admit that although Xu Kong was young, he really understood the rules and ways of the entertainment industry.

If it has nothing to do with me and does not involve him, I will hardly take the initiative to take sides in this kind of situation.

From a personal point of view, Feiniao certainly hopes that Xu Kong will also stand up and say a few words about Tan Hongyu.

He didn't believe that the other party couldn't see that Tan Hongyu himself was the kind of singer who relied on his past success.

But if Xu Kong really gets killed, then the debate will probably change completely.

Although it is true that Tan Hongyu is a senior, what if Xu Kong also said that the other party’s singing is not good, or that it has been the same for many years and there has been no improvement?

Then it is estimated that Tan Hongyu’s future career is likely to be ruined.

It’s true, Xu Kong now has such ability.

The outcome is not as simple as taking sides, but it feels like the final word.

……

This minor conflict did not have much impact.

As for Mango TV, for the sake of the show effect and popularity, there is a high probability that it will be cut into the main film.

Although Feng Youan is an annoying person, he always plays the role of a villain in the show.

But it has to be said that it was indeed through similar means that he gained attention far beyond his status despite being a black and red person.

I admire Feiniao for this. At least he is willing to take risks and do whatever it takes to become famous.

Even if he is a villain, he is a real villain.

In comparison, artists like Tan Hongyu, who have always been boasting about their so-called senior status in the industry but have been living off their old capital for so many years, are the ones he hates the most.

……

"Next, please welcome our fourth singer of this episode, Miss Rabbit!"

The recording of the program is still going on.

At this time, Su Yuwei, the fourth performer, stepped onto the stage.

The fat bird immediately began to look forward to it.

In fact, compared to the song Xu Kong wrote for Mao Zheyu, he likes the song he wrote for Su Yuwei more.

The style of the song is erratic, whether it is a love song or some other types, Su Yuwei can handle it.

Strictly speaking, many people call Su Yuwei "Little Su Zhi". Although there are still big differences between the two, there is a reason for this.

Especially after Su Yuwei joined Xu Kong's company, the songs Xu Kong wrote for her really had the feeling of the songs Xu Kong had crazily written for Su Zhi.

Of course, although the age difference between the two is not that big, it is still quite big in terms of the number of years they have debuted.

And now Su Yuwei is still relatively young and immature.

At least there is a big gap in terms of stage presence, singing skills, live performance, and the individual's handling of his own vocal conditions.

Before Su Zhi received help from Xu Kong Gege, she was already the youngest singing queen in the country.

So even if it is a competition of talent, Su Zhi's evaluation in Feiniao is higher than Su Yuwei's.

As for the future, no one can say for sure what direction it will take.

After all, both of them have the support of Xu Kong, the youngest Qu Dad in the country, and their upper limits are ridiculously high.

……

""only""

"Singer: Miss Rabbit"

As expected, it’s another new song.

In fact, in Feiniao's opinion, it feels like "The King of Masked Singer" has now become a stage for Xu Kong to promote his songs.

There are two new songs in almost every episode.

Although no one wrote the lyrics.

But after guessing the identities of Mao Zheyu and Su Yuwei, it seems that there is no other possibility that the quality of most songs can be attributed to Xu Kong.

……

"You really understand the definition of Wei, it's not as simple as breathing"

"I really hope you can clarify. How can you explain if you didn't hand it in?"

Su Yuwei's singing voice rang out.

The accompaniment of the whole song tends to be low and sad.

It sets off her vocals very clearly.

"I really love you, every word is not easy"

The fat bird was stunned for a moment.

He heard the male harmony in the singing.

虽然不是特别明显.

But it definitely exists.

……

Sure enough, as Su Yuwei continued to sing, the boys' harmony appeared again.

"Could it be that Xu Kong helped record the harmony?"

Fat Bird couldn't help thinking.

After all, it is obvious that the entire song, from the lyrics, melody, to the arrangement, was probably done by Xu Kong alone.

Apart from Xu Kong, there seems to be no other possibility.

"you know"

"I really love you, nothing can compare to that"

The style of the whole song tends to be very slow.

From the arrangement to the singing, it even seems like the chorus does not exist.

Strictly speaking, Su Yuwei doesn't have the high notes that she is best at, so this should be a disadvantage.

But for some reason, Su Yuwei was too emotionally invested when she sang this song today.

Especially in some parts of the singing, you can hear the vibrato which is obvious but well-controlled.

To match such a rather sad love song.

The overall performance really makes people feel that the taste is right.

……

And Su Yuwei herself is indeed a talented singer.

High notes are indeed the other party's best.

But apart from that, I can actually perform brilliantly in handling various types of song styles.

More importantly, why did Feiniao feel that Su Yuwei was a little too involved when she sang this song today?
Although it is said that emotional investment is a necessary skill for singers when singing songs.

But what Su Yuwei sang really seemed like there was such a tragic love story.

“You don’t want to prove it”

"Prove that I am your only one"

"Prove that I am your only one"

……

After the last line of the lyrics, there was silence for a while, and then applause broke out.

But Su Yuwei on the stage kept holding the microphone tightly. After several seconds, she seemed to come to her senses and bowed to thank the audience.

Unfortunately, because she was wearing a hood, no one could see clearly what her expression was at the moment.
