Entertainment: Is this how you play music?!

Chapter 467 DP Band Evolves Again, But Drinking on Stage.

Li Can and his group were not exaggerating at all.

Even the Wuling Hongguang, which seems somewhat out of place, isn't particularly eye-catching, after all, it's a black matte version and a brand new model.

The outfit was also a very common black suit and sunglasses.

Just the posture of walking on the red carpet
It reveals a slight sense of discrepancy.

This sense of dissonance creates a strong impact on the audience, while a very reasonable sense of abstraction subtly influences and cultivates the sense of reality.

The comments section is very interesting.

One of the comments, a particularly insightful exchange, quickly garnered likes and reached the top of the comments section, vividly depicting the DP band's demeanor on the red carpet.

They say you can't find two kinds of people in a family, but even wearing the same suit, DP managed to create six different looks.

[Which six types? Explain in detail?]

Lin Feng's eyes were unfocused; Chen Gang was fast asleep, one a dog thief on the pedestrian street, the other a security guard at a foot massage parlor.

Hahahaha!!

Netizens were laughing hysterically and clicked on the expanded options in the comments section.

The real wonders lie below.

This same netizen, who also made the comment, described everyone's posture in great detail, making it arguably the most hilarious moment of the awards ceremony.

[Zhao Ze wears glasses, a typical guy selling pirated DVDs under a pedestrian bridge. Han Jiayin? He looks normal, but he's too normal, so he's abstract, like a little girl secretly wearing her dad's clothes.]

[Do I even need to explain about Li Can and Winnie? One bought a suit that was too small, his muscles looked like they were about to burst; the other had an icy, cool expression. One worked in Southeast Asia, the other was a pure KGB agent.]

DP had a lot of screen time.

After many netizens browsed the comments section, the camera still focused on the DP band.

But after reading the comments and then seeing the real person, I couldn't help but click a little.

Hahaha, I'm laughing so hard I can't live anymore!

[How can it be so vivid?]

[Get up there right now!]

Who said music cultivates temperament? Step forward and explain!

[Why wasn't it cultivated? Forget about what kind of temperament it is, I'm just asking if you have it.]

[A band with six gods, none of whom are human.]

The group walked along the red carpet to the poster area for photos and autographs before entering the venue.

The celebrity audience members and guests who arrived early at the venue also saw this unique DP.

Some sharp-eyed people even watched the whole scene from the Wuling Hongguang.

I couldn't hold it in at all, but I really didn't dare to laugh too loudly.

"Mr. Li, DP Band has won so many solo awards. As the leader, how do you feel?"

"Mr. Li, could you tell me about your upcoming schedule?"

"The president of Universal Music publicly expressed his great respect for you in an interview at Lighthouse and hoped that you would hold a concert at Lighthouse. How did you respond?"

Even after Li Can entered the venue, the reporters behind him continued to shout, hoping that Li Can would give an answer.

What if?
However, it is clear that Li Can and his group will not choose to be interviewed here.

For newcomers, almost no one will ask; for celebrities, perhaps they can answer a few questions and give some hints to try and gain some attention.

But at the DP level, firstly, we need to be mindful of the impact. Even if it's the main character, we need to give the supporting characters some room to perform. Secondly, we need to set standards. The later interview segments are fine, but now we're squeezing in whenever we can. Once the opportunity is given, it's unstoppable.

After arriving at the venue.

The camera follows.

The guest seating arrangement for the DP band was somewhat meaningful.

In the center, at the very front.

Besides the six people, there were several organizers of the Tencent Music Awards ceremony.

Logically, this should be the seat of the organizer's investor representative, the bigwig of the investors, but now it has been given to a band.

There weren't any celebrities in the three surrounding circles; they were all industry bigwigs or representatives from major companies.

Obviously, this wasn't because of the DP band, but purely because of Lee Chan personally. Everyone treated Lee Chan as the biggest investor in the event, not as an entertainer.

After a short rest and a brief chat.

The awards ceremony should now officially begin.

The DP band naturally stood up and went backstage.

As a result, the very front row, center seat at a music awards ceremony was strangely left empty.

The big shot isn't that he hasn't arrived yet; he's just warming up backstage.

"Hello, Brother Can!"

"Brother Feng!"

As they walked by, the performers, who were preparing for their show, began to demonstrate the "Young Man Stands at Attention" pose.

After spending these days together, I'm not as nervous as I was at the beginning.

However, it formed a muscle memory similar to a conditioned reflex.

Zhong Liang was the most shocked at first, but now he is very natural and even more excited because he can finally share the stage with Li Can.

In contrast, Yan Lin, who was nervous, even started clapping in advance, with her palms raised and clapping, which was quite strange.

After greeting everyone, Li Can and the band members picked up the instruments that had been prepared beforehand.

As performers, we had actually finished everything in the morning. After having lunch, we rested in the afternoon and waited to go back to the venue in the evening. During this time, the team and staff kept a close watch on the rest room, and no one went in or out, so as not to damage the instruments that had been tuned.

Walk to the backstage passage and step onto the elevator.

The crossbeam passageway on the stage has not yet been opened, and the lights are still on directly below the stage.

The production team is closely monitoring the entire production.

Footsteps could be heard passing by the stage.

The host's voice came from below.

"The Tencent Xinghai Music Awards Ceremony is officially beginning!"

"Please welcome our special guest for this ceremony—Devil Power!"

The stage lights went out.

At this moment, the live stream on the internet was flooded with comments, and the countdown had begun!
Li Can and his buddies straightened their clothes, and with an OK sign, the director raised his walkie-talkie to give orders.

The overhead beam passage opened, and the elevator slowly rose.

After it comes to a stable stop.

Everyone stared intently at the stage, awaiting instructions.

The clear sound of a piano rang out on the dark stage.

As Chen Gang struck the first note, a pale blue spotlight slowly brightened, shining on the grand piano with a subtle, breathing-light effect.

A piano piece, Nocturne in C-sharp minor.

It's not the whole song, but just a main melody.

Although it's called a nocturne, it's actually a prelude, perfect for the performance.

Chen Gang's entire demeanor changed dramatically, displaying the exquisite skill of a master pianist.

The netizens who were initially joking gradually became engrossed in it.

The shimmering notes fell from high to low, like stars falling.

This time, Chen Gang, dressed in a suit and tie, no longer had the sleepy look of a security guard at a foot massage parlor, but was a true master.

The piano passage didn't last long, only about a minute.

Unbeknownst to them, Chen Gang's change of key at some point made the music's atmosphere seem as if the night sky had opened up.

The bass gently taps the strings, inducing a light, rhythmic beat from the drum kit.

The front lights came on, the footlights gradually intensified, and the light began to spread from the grand piano, illuminating the figures of five people, excluding Han Jiayin.

Lin Feng's voice also came out gently.

"If you search for tenderness,

It isn't hard to find.

You can have the love you need to live"

With the gentle piano accompaniment, even the drumbeats become very tender.

Amidst the floating lights that pulsate with the rhythm of breathing.

The music unfolds slowly in the gentlest way.

“But if you look for truthfulness,

You might just as well be blind,

"It always seems so hard to give." The artists in the audience gently waved their glow sticks.

They don't seem like celebrities; they're more like fans.

The music unfolds, starting with a classical piano and transitioning to a soft rock style, as if DP Band is once again demonstrating the boundless possibilities of music.

"Honesty,

Is such a lonely word
Everyone is so untrue.

Distortion always captivates the heart.

The seemingly slow-burning style subtly drives the emotional shifts throughout the event.

The artistic presentation significantly elevated the overall sophistication and perceived quality of the awards ceremony.

"Honesty,

It is hardly ever heard
And mostly what I need from you. "

Many industry leaders in the audience were deeply moved.

DP Band, as expected of DP Band.

Just the opening appearance elevated the overall style of the awards ceremony by several levels.

With an opening like this, it would be hard for any audience member to believe that the awards were of low quality.

From the audience's perspective, just two or three minutes is enough to subconsciously reinforce the perception that "the award is highly prestigious".

However, the celebrities who were watching the show backstage did not think in this direction.

Prolonged periods of intense competition can truly cause the mind to focus solely on music and devoid of anything else.

Zhong Liang had already started whispering among himself and the other performers.

"Since they came back from the competition, it feels like they've evolved again. I feel like they've found the most comfortable area between popular commercial and classic seriousness. This area is mysterious; it's not about proportion, it's a feeling."

"Yes, yes, it feels like they are blurring the line between classical and commercial music now, integrating them more completely, and even completely avoiding the problem of the high technical barriers of classical music being isolated from popular, conventional routines."

This is not simply a matter of adding a piano to music or adding a touch of serious music to the piano.

Lin Feng wasn't singing with the accompaniment of a piano.

Instead, it's a song sung by the piano and vocals together.

"I can find a lover!"

The singing came first, followed by the piano.

The human voice develops, and musical instruments solve the problem.

One after the other, like a rebate, they reflect each other, much like an answer.

There is no excessive emotional buildup or strong contrast.

It was just a gentle song, ending with the last line.

“Honesty
It is hardly ever heard of.

And mostly what I need from you. "

"coming!"

The artists backstage were the first to get excited.

After rehearsing together for a long time, what amazed everyone the most was DP Band's unique and wide-ranging design.

A sixteen-minute performance does need to have an opening piece, so it's not suitable for repeated emotional shifts.

Therefore, beyond the artistic and stylistic transition.

The most brilliant touch is the excessive expression of emotion.

Li Can did not divide the sixteen minutes into three pieces.

Instead, they view the sixteen minutes as a single piece of work.

The entire sixteen-minute piece was divided into three stages using only a single work.

Preparation – Development – ​​Climax

However, this does not diminish the emotional complexity of a single work.

If you miss a trick, just learn it; the artists backstage really do learn it all in no time.

It was during the final piano performance.

Chen Gang did not press the resolve button.

But unlike the deliberate pauses during the competition, this time, a soothing melody seamlessly transitioned in.

After the melody played for a while, not only the singers in the audience, but also many netizens could tell the difference.

This is a canon technique.

The work is titled "Canon in D Major".

As a type of polyphonic music, canon represents regularity, pursuit, repetition, correspondence, and even reflection.

Zhong Liang's cheeks flushed slightly; he was somewhat excited.

"The most ingenious idea! Canon, with its iconic melody that keeps repeating, is perfect for a solo! And a solo can also serve as a transition!"

Chen Gang played Canon on the piano, a piece full of classical charm. The mathematical music, like the laws of nature, gave people a mysterious feeling.

But this is just the beginning.

The originally gentle music, after the introduction of the clean electric guitar, was like a chef adding seasonings to a clear broth.

The focus was on Winnie's electric guitar.

But the soothing, clear sound of the electric guitar is only a brief interlude.

In the brief silence.

The drums and bass begin, the piano falls silent, and the electric guitar turns on its effects pedals, as if it has been electrified in an instant!
Wow!
The celebrities in the audience started to get excited and seemed to get hyped.

This is actually a transition from classical to the real thing; it's a rock version of Canon!
The lights suddenly became brighter, flashing a few times before Winnie strode to the front desk and took over the entire scene!

The drum set and the big bricks started flying as they began to swing.

"Oh! Oh! Oh!"

The time for nodding has come.

The rapid, surging rhythms unconsciously excite people, seemingly awakening the body's vitality.

It's an expression of rock and roll.

However, the unparalleled serious musicality of the work was not suppressed.

As Zhong Liang said.

DP has evolved to find the most comfortable fusion zone between serious music and commercial music.

It's a feeling, not a formula or proportion. No matter how you blend them, it always seems to be just right!

The barrage of comments also started scrolling faster.

Holy crap! This is so much fun!

[It felt like I was dreaming just now, but now it feels like I'm suddenly awake!]

[Holy crap, that guitar! Holy crap, that drums?!]

The atmosphere was beginning to stir.

As the lead singer, Lin Feng, who has temporarily stepped down, is not to be outdone.

He reached out from the side of the piano and pulled out a bottle of wine from a blind spot in the audience's field of vision.

By the time the audience noticed...

Lin Feng had already walked up to Li Can and brought the wine to Li Can's lips.

Li Can kept moving and was still playing very enthusiastically, but he turned his head to the side, leaned over and, with Lin Feng's help, took a sip of wine in front of everyone.

This scene made the celebrities in the audience laugh and cheer.

"Oh oh oh!!"

The intimate drinking session between the two was a stark contrast to Winnie's dazzling display of skill.

The audience couldn't hold back any longer; after the musicality, artistry, and emotion...

At this moment, even the entertainment value is not lacking.

What are you two doing?! I'm dying of laughter!

Good heavens! I exclaimed, "Good heavens! Who brings a bottle of wine on stage?"

【Huh? No, is it really that loose?】

So, the "burn" you're referring to is the "burn" in alcohol?!

The artists backstage stared at each other blankly.

I was completely shocked.

Damn it, it really wasn't in this rehearsal!
