national idol

Chapter 320
"It's started, it's started."

At 8:20, the admission of the stars ended, and the lights on the stage dimmed.

After a while, the rhythmic guqin sounded.

On the dark stage, a round of blood-colored setting sun appeared in response, and the blushing light shone everywhere, covering the whole stage in a crimson glamour. A palace-like classical building stood under the setting sun, giving off a sense of desolation. Yi Shuihan's loneliness is tragic.

In front of the palace, there is an ashram with five stone niches on the left and right.

In the center of the ashram, six dancers in red loose uniforms lay on the ground.

Suddenly a gust of wind came, the maple leaves all over the sky reflected the setting sun, swayed with the wind, fell on the palace, fell into the dojo, the scene was so beautiful that everyone was amazed for a while.

Fortunately, it is the Golden Needle Award for the best on-site slogan, which is distinguished from other awards by this immersive opening holographic effect.

At the same time, many people paid attention to the sound of guqin accompanying it.

This guqin sound is very modern, with a bit of rock style. When many people hear it, a person immediately comes to mind.

Ding Ning.

That's right, it must be Ding Ning!
Sure enough, it was Ding Ning again!

Many people came up with the same idea at the same time.

In their opinion, there is only one pop singer in the Chinese music scene who can use classical instruments to produce such a sense of rhythm, and that is Ding Ning.

This point can be confirmed by many of his songs and many live performances.

For example, "Coming Again", which is known as the invincible prelude, and his two opening performances at the College Music Festival and the Golden Melody Awards, all of which used rhythmic classical instruments as introductions.

In the slightly noisy venue, the audience suddenly fell silent, leaving only a few whispers.

"Who could it be? It should be me, Ning."

Zhou Jiatong looked at the stage expectantly without blinking.

It is said that this performance will have spoilers for Ding Ning's new album that will be released at the end of the month. In order to watch Ding Ning's live performance, she chased Ding Ning all the way from Shenshi to Hong Kong Island.

"It must be me, Ning, this style is too obvious."

Qi Tong, who came with Zhou Jiatong, gaped.

"I think so too, but I'm afraid not."

Both the Chinese Music Festival and the Golden Melody Awards are Ding Ning's opening guest. If the Golden Needle Award is still Ding Ning, then Ding Ning will be the only star in history to be the opening guest of the three awards in the same year.

As a newcomer, overpowering a group of senior superstars to be the opening guest of the three awards, this is an achievement that can be recorded in the Chinese pop music scene. As a die-hard fan of Ding Ning, she desperately hopes that Ding Ning can achieve this feat.

However, the greater the expectation, the more afraid of disappointment, even though she can clearly feel that this is Ding Ning's style, she is still worried if it fails.

"Don't be afraid, I'll bet you 100 packs of spicy strips, it's definitely my Ning!"

Qi Tong made a vow.

If there were still doubts at the beginning, she no longer had any doubts after hearing it.

As a result, after several classical instruments intertwined with a brisk rhythm, the electric guitar and bass were inserted immediately after, which is exactly the same as Ding Ning's previous performance at the Golden Melody Awards.

Secondly, shouts of "Ding Ning" rang out one after another in the audience, that is to say, many people could hear it.

But no, the style is really too self-indulgent, who else can seamlessly integrate national musical instruments and western musical instruments together.

Zhou Jiatong didn't speak anymore, because the voices of "Ding Ning" in the audience quickly gathered together, and she couldn't help shouting with everyone.

"I would rather come out soon, I would rather."

She anxiously waited silently in her heart.

After a while, a high-pitched Tibetan folk song sounded.

The insertion of this folk song made the atmosphere of the audience even more strange and gorgeous, and also highlighted the richness and variety of the arrangement.

Ding Ning's voice became more intense at the scene.

Isn't this the routine in "Life Like a Summer Flower", I'm quite sure, I still need to question it.

This time, even the many Ding Ning fans who were worried about their brothers and sisters being emotional, no longer have any doubts.

When the folk song fell to the ground, accompanied by a roar that resounded through the audience, dozens of magnificent white fireworks rose into the sky on the stage, illuminating the entire sky.

The dancer who had been lying on the ground before also jumped up and danced wildly.

The shouts of "Ding Ning" at the scene were immediately replaced by the screams of the audience.

"I'd rather come out!"

At this moment, countless people popped up such an idea in their hearts.

Indeed, as the fireworks dissipated in the sky, the two lifting platforms on the left and right of the stage slowly rose, and it seemed that the protagonist was about to appear on the stage.

But to everyone's surprise, there was no Ding Ning.

On the lifting platform on the left stands a dancer dressed as a shaman, while on the right is a white-haired dancer holding a single sword.

The shaman dancer shook his body and danced with his teeth and claws.

The solo dancer is extremely tall and burly. He stands on the stage with a single sword in his hand, standing majestically, which makes people feel cool.

The appearance of these two dancers made people more and more convinced that today's opening guest was none other than Ding Ning.

After all, apart from Ding Ning, the stars who are capable of being the opening guests are all quite old now. This kind of gorgeous style with magical colors is obviously not their routine.

Among the new generation, not to mention the dazzling layout of the live stage, just Ding Ning is the only one who has this kind of skill in the arrangement that is equally gorgeous to the extreme.

"It shouldn't be rock and roll anymore, let's be disappointed."

Hearing this, although the accompaniment on stage is still the electric guitar as the main instrument, and the melody is rock-like, but according to the direction of the rhythm, Fu Yueran has heard that this is definitely not a pure rock song, it should be a pop song with rock and plateau style.

She received clear news that Ding Ning will be singing a new album song at the opening ceremony, and now she can basically confirm that this new album should be a pop album.

Finally, Ding Ning still embarked on the road of pop songs. I don’t know how many fans who were looking forward to Ding Ning’s rock or folk album will be disappointed by this.

Fu Zhou smiled and said, "I have nothing to be disappointed about. I'm not Wen Heyang. Even Wen Heyang won't be disappointed. We don't force others to make the music they like. Musicians don't do it. The music I like is still called a musician. As long as it sounds good, I will listen to any song Ding Ning sings."

"Then you are Cheng Dingning's fan." Fu Yueran smiled.

Fu Zhou looked at Fu Yueran with a doting smile and said, "What's the matter, you young people are only allowed to like this and pursue that, and we old people are not allowed to have a hobby."

"Haha." Fu Yueran smiled heartily when she heard the words: "As long as you like it, Dad, you might be Ding Ning's number one fan."

"There's no such thing." Fu Zhou said disapprovingly, "You're the only one who takes Dad seriously, how many people still remember me now. Three queens dare not say that they are Ding Ning's number one fan, you What kind of onion is dad?"

"Look at what you said." Fu Yueran took his father's arm: "Anyway, in my eyes, you are the biggest card."

"Is there your big card?" Fu Zhou cast a sidelong glance at Fu Yueran.

"Hehe, the same big name, if we insist on the competition, it's better for you, Dad, to be a bigger name, the godfather of folk songs." Fu Yueran said with a sweet smile.

"Here we come." Between the words, on the screen, accompanied by a deep strumming sound and "bang" fireworks soaring into the sky, Ding Ning, dressed in black leather, jumped out of the center of the dojo, as if appearing out of thin air .

His white hair is tied back, his temples are flying, his eyes are firm, and the "X" shaped scar on his face and the double knives on his back are extremely eye-catching. Standing on the stage, he looks like a young knight who is arrogant in a costume drama.

Many people don't understand where Ding Ning appeared, but at this moment, no one has the heart to pay attention to this point.

Because as soon as Ding Ning appeared, the deafening screams of the audience instantly overwhelmed the explosion of fireworks, and the atmosphere that was ready to go was completely detonated at this moment.

The fiery heat in everyone's hearts also surged up from the bottom of their hearts along the blood vessels, exploding like firecrackers.

Driven by the manic adrenaline, more than half of the audience couldn't help but stand up, and Ding Ning's singing also came.

"Re-edit the imagination of history through the lens, and appreciate the bridge sections of the eight-centimeter documentary from a distance."

"There are two opposing sides, good and evil, I clenched my fists and started to get used to the method of tit for tat."

"Wind ~ circling smoke filled the air."

"I light the incense piously, praying for peace."

"Looking down from the rooftop, the violence is spinning around in place. The answer to the previous generation's solution is to smile and not resist."

"The sigh of the rain-soaked Tang suit is very oriental. I can't bear the sight of a family whose dignity is injured."

"Damn it, why can't I hear what he's singing clearly." At this point, Ding Ning's singing paused.This should be the main chorus again, what makes Qi Tong speechless is that if she doesn't read the teleprompter, she has no idea what Ding Ning is singing.

Ding Ning forgot the words?
It shouldn't be, he can see more teleprompters than the audience like them, and she can clearly hear that there are still words, but it's very vague.

Or was Ding Ning unprepared and nervous when he came on stage?
"Never mind him, it's super nice."

Zhou Jiatong also had a similar feeling, but she felt that this way of singing was surprisingly touching, and it echoed unusually with the gorgeous and weird accompaniment.

Ding Ning should have done it on purpose, she thinks so.

It sounds good, it is really good, the melody makes people feel very novel, it is completely different from other pop songs, but Qi Tong still finds this kind of humming method very strange.

"It's not a bad thing to sing rock and roll, the overall rhythm is so strong, it's just this way of singing..."

It wasn't just Qi Tong who felt strange, Fu Yueran also felt defeated by Ding Ning's vague singing style.

Brother, you are on the stage of the Golden Needle Awards, is it really good to perform like this?

Fu Zhou also thought it was weird at first, but since he was born in music after all, he accepted this singing method faster than Fu Yueran: "It's quite flattering, Chinese pronunciation is short, and the ups and downs between words are not as rich as English. He sings like this. , Blur the rhyme, you can highlight the melody, it should be to match the melody. If you sing clearly, try it yourself, it will definitely sound hard, not as smooth as he sounds."

Fu Yueran suddenly realized when he heard the words, as expected, he was still his father's professional, and he knew the way as soon as he heard it.

Fu Zhou stared at the TV screen, paused, and continued: "His song has a lot of fusion elements, rock, hiphop, ethnic style, martial arts, and electronic sound effects are also very good. It's a bit of a hodgepodge, but it should be formed by himself. It’s the style of music. Assorted music, playing tricks, young people still have ideas.”

"Is this a good review?" Fu Yueran looked at her father and said.

Fu Zhou smiled and said: "Of course it's a good review. How dare I speak ill of you, Ning, or I'll be cast aside by you, a navy army. Let me say something nice. The Chinese music scene can write this kind of fast songs." There are very few people, but Kuaige can incorporate so many elements and integrate them well. I have only met him so far, and he is indeed talented. Is this song called "Double Swords"?"

"Yes." The moment Ding Ning appeared, the words "Double Swords" flashed across the screen, and Fu Yueran remembered it clearly.

"That's right. This guy does have kung fu. I predict that his album will be a hit." As long as Ding Ning is good, his daughter will like it. Fu Zhou has figured out what Fu Yueran is thinking.

However, Ding Ning does have his own ideas. His daughter regards him as an idol. He does not object at all, but rather supports it.

There are not many people in the Chinese pop music scene. Ding Ning is undoubtedly the most worthy of attention among the new generation, the most talented, and the most musically literate. If a daughter wants an idol, of course it can only be Ding Ning.

At the scene, Ding Ning sang again: "The wind~ slowly bypasses the martial arts hall. The moon directly above is Chinese yellow..."

It is indeed an inarticulate singing method, or Ding Ning will make mistakes and make mistakes. This is worth complaining about in the eyes of many people, but what makes them unable to open their mouths is that this singing is really inexplicably good.

It's like poison.There is a strange addictiveness, which makes people want to stop.

At the guest seats, many celebrities seemed to have accepted Ding Ning's singing, stood up one after another, and danced along with Ding Ning's singing.

"My Ning's fan base is getting bigger and bigger."

Seeing this scene, Qi Tong was very proud.

Although those who stand up are basically new generation singers, they are not bad, at least it shows Ding Ning's status among the new generation singers.

He is their idol and their role model. No other new singer can do it.

"Yeah, many celebrities on Weibo have said that they are Ding Ning's fans." Zhou Jiatong was not without pride.

Just as Qi Tong was about to reply, the accompaniment stopped abruptly, and a clear sound of a weapon being unsheathed suddenly sounded.

Turning her head hastily, she saw that on the stage, after singing a verse, Ding Ning suddenly pulled out the double knives behind his back, holding the knives on the ground in one hand, and pointing the knives in the other, standing still like a sculpture on the lifting platform on the right. white-haired samurai.

This provocative move, like a trigger, once again ignited the fiery atmosphere of the scene, and the audience suddenly burst into screams.

Someone challenged him, so naturally he had to fight. The white-haired samurai jumped off the lifting platform with a single sword in his hand.

"Ping ping ping ping."

In an instant, Ding Ning and the warrior had exchanged several moves.

Even though they knew that they must have rehearsed beforehand, at this moment, facing swords and swords, many fans' hearts were still raised in their throats.

Amidst the clash of swords, the two sides finally came to a conclusion. Ding Ning cut the warrior under the swords with a beautiful roundabout, turned around with another beautiful roundabout, and continued to sing: "Overlooking the violence from the rooftop." Spin around in place..."

A very appropriate line of lyrics, at this moment, screams and cheers surged from all directions, shaking the eardrums of everyone on the scene and in front of the screen like a torrent.

　The prototype of this scene is a set of skewers made by Jay Chou in 2004. You can find the video by searching for the keywords "double knife, nunchaku and dragon fist".
