Chapter 305 Invitation (34)

"You love coffee, have a low-key vibe, and your music collection is quirky and unconventional~"

On the center stage of "Singer," Shen Yan sang "Coward"...

The version starring Penny Tai…

Actually, Liang Yongqi's version is also good. It has a kind of girlish and quirky feeling. The arrangement of this version is even cooler. The atmosphere of the opening electronic music and vocals is too strong. It has a kind of magical and cool beauty.

Shen Yan's voice is delicate and clear...

It's like a completely new song!
As an aside, Leung Wing-kei really is like this: when he can't sing, his songs are good, and when he can sing, his songs are bad—his albums after 01 are getting worse and worse.
She was often invited to act when she couldn't, but disappeared when she could act. Her debut works were "Full Throttle" (directed by Derek Yee and starring Andy Lau) and "The God of Cookery". In 97, she was nominated for Best Actress at the Golden Horse Awards for her role in Sylvia Chang's "Tempting Heart". Then she co-starred with Takeshi Kaneshiro in "Turn Left, Turn Right", which are all classic works!

Later on, I didn't get many opportunities to play leading roles—the last time I gained widespread recognition was for my bizarre look in "The Monkey King 3"...

Keep singing!
Shen Yan chose "Coward" mainly because he didn't want to hit the high notes...

Let me also show off my music arrangement skills!

"I love seeing you furrow your brow and call me a coward; it makes me feel like I'm bickering with my lover."

After he finished singing, he bowed and went backstage.

Seeing that Shen Li didn't comment on "Coward," he couldn't help but ask, "...Why aren't you commenting on my singing?"

"...Didn't you say that my musical taste isn't suitable for critiquing songs?"

"...I told you not to comment on other people's singing...Where do you think I'll rank this episode?"

Shen Li thought for a moment, then said seriously, "It's hard to say..."

"Should we analyze this in more detail?"

"Teacher Huang Qishan sang 'Cut Love'... clearly aiming for first place..."

Hearing this, Shen Yan quickly interrupted her: "Big sister, shut up!"

This was a calculated move – it was suggested by the production team that Huang Qishan sing it.

The production team of "I Am a Singer" has actually been using Huang Qishan as a point of hype, so they have spared no effort in everything they do for Huang Qishan, from the agents who buy votes for her in each episode to various news media, they have been doing their best to help her.

When it became clear that the audience was getting tired of Huang's repetitive high notes—Huang's ranking had already started to decline, and he couldn't offer anything more.

In fact, Lin Zhixuan and Shen Yan joining "Singer" brought in most of the show's exposure...

Especially Shen Yan, his song choices every episode generate a lot of discussion...

What about Huang Qishan?
The production team and she teamed up to play their second card – romance.

This is really frustrating!
Because Huang and her ex-husband Tu Huiyuan have been divorced for 17 years!

Brother, 17 years ago…

Seventeen years can turn a young woman into a middle-aged or elderly woman, or it can teach her to forget, let go, and discard many things.

It's really hard to believe that Huang has been unable to forget Tu Huiyuan for 17 years...

Yang Guo and Xiaolongnü were only separated for 16 years.

Moreover, Huang Qishan later sang "Cut Love" at every tour performance...

Hong Tao really went to great lengths to stir up trouble!
However, when the rankings were announced, Huang Qishan's "Cut Love" only came in fourth place—she broke down emotionally midway through the performance, crying and kneeling on the ground…

By the way, Tu Huiyuan gave "Cut Love" and "Listen to the Sea" to A-mei to sing...

This can be considered one of A-mei's early representative works.

Shen Yan actually won first place!

"Wow, is it really number one? You're not mistaken?"

Shen Yan was surprised to hear that he was in first place.

Hu Haiquan interjected, "What's wrong? Losing confidence?"

"No, 'Coward' is a very languid love song...it doesn't have much of a technical flair..."

"But you rearranged it..."

"How many audience members care about the arrangement? This is a stage for singing skills!"

Hong Tao interrupted him: "...So, the next performance will be an original song?"

"Hmm, I'm planning to create an original song, a soothing one..."

……

Hu Haiquan is quite concerned about Shen Yan's Spring Festival Gala rehearsal progress...

Okay, he mainly wanted to ask about Uncle Bensugi's situation, whether he really couldn't go on!

Anyway... I didn't see him!

"Could it be... that they're not letting him play?"

Shen Yan really wanted to say, "Congratulations, you got it right!" It's said that director Ha Wen rejected the skit "Good Man Zhao Dahai" twice in a row. Ha Wen rejected it outright in the first round of review, citing "lack of innovation and educational value," without even giving it a chance to be revised…

Undeterred, Zhao Benshan's team created "Blind Date" as a replacement.

She was also rejected by Havin…

The reason remains the same—a lack of innovation and educational value!

But he wouldn't say such things aloud. He scratched his head and said, "Who knows? By the way, Quan-ge, were you nervous about performing at the Spring Festival Gala?"

Hu Haiquan shook his head: "I'm not nervous... I'm just lip-syncing!"

"This year, I'm going to sing live!"

"...If you're going to sing live, then you'd better give it your all, otherwise you'll make a huge fool of yourself in front of the whole country..."

Chen Yu-Fan immediately added, "Last year, Jam Hsiao... that car crash scene even shocked Li Jian!"

Uh, last year's Spring Festival Gala created the number one train wreck on the Spring Festival Gala stage - Jam Hsiao's voice cracked!

This matter is known to almost everyone.

"It's not that bad..."

Hu Haiquan said, "If you think there's a problem with your in-ear monitor, you must take it off and just turn your microphone on full blast!"

"Yes, the staff of the Spring Festival Gala are not that professional."

"OK!"

These are all based on experience…

What number are you going to appear?

"I should be in the middle position, I'll be taking over Feng Gong's skit..."

"That's good..."

Chen Yufan added, "Take care of yourself, and don't catch a cold!"

"Um…"

……

The seniors were really kind...

Knowing that Shen Yan is going to be on the Spring Festival Gala, everyone is sharing their experiences.

In summary: Take it easy and if you encounter any problems, just take off your headset!

It's impossible to stop and do it again...

Wang Fei sang in such a pretentious way, and I never saw her call for a pause!

Back home, Shen Yan said to his grandparents, "Come with me and be an audience member!"

"Are you able to get the tickets?"

"Two tickets for family and friends..."

"Huh? Only two?"

"...These are tickets to the Spring Festival Gala...Two tickets are already pretty good..." After a pause, Shen Yan seemed to remember something: "You want your second uncle and aunt to come too?"

Grandma nodded: "Yes...it's Chinese New Year, a time for the whole family to get together..."

Shen Yan scratched his head: "...How about I take you guys to Beijing for a while...and invite my second aunt and the others too?"

After all, my grandparents don't have the habit of staying up late, and the Spring Festival Gala recording will definitely go on until the early hours of the morning.

Upon hearing Shen Yan's words, Grandpa immediately asked, "Did you get the house?"

"Yes, I got it. The renovations are almost done..."

"How big?"

"289 square meters, that's quite large!"

"where?"

"Xinghewan Langyuan, Chaoyang District..."

Well, Shen Yan bought one first. The location is good, but the seller is in a hurry to sell. It's 289 square meters, three bedrooms, two living rooms, and a 7.5-meter-high duplex…

It wasn't expensive either, I got it for 1200 million.

The decor is in the old-money style; he renovated it…

I plan to live here for two years first, but I won't be able to move into Guangqu Jinmao Mansion until 2013...
