Chapter 51: Amazing Sliding Buckle
Did Bai Chou choose the song with Kim Hyo Joo in mind?
Yes, but not many. Bai Chou chose this song more for the singing effect.

Bai Chou studied pop music, and he has solid basic skills and knows a variety of singing techniques. None of his vocal skills is particularly outstanding or biased.

The slow and lyrical rhythm that shows off one's singing skills is not Bai Chou's specialty. The modern pop music with a faster rhythm and a mixture of pop, electronic music, R&B, dance music, rock and other different elements is Bai Chou's advantage.

Music with these elements is also more suitable for live performances and can more easily create an atmosphere than lyrical songs.

If Bai Chou is singing alone, or if his partner is good, he would prefer to sing songs by Deng Ziqi, Zhang Huimei, Wang Leehom and others in a lower key, or cover popular songs from Europe and the United States recently...

"Devil from Heaven", "What's So Rare About Love", "The Mistake in the Flower Field", "Senorita"... are all good choices.

But considering Li Xue's singing skills, the selection range instantly narrowed countless times, and "Painful as Death" stood out at once.

This K-Pop, released in 10, is a mixture of pop, lyrical, R&B, rap, electronic music and other elements. It is a standard modern pop music, and it is still just...

Although it is a Korean song and not very popular, this song was included in QQ Speed ​​that year and was quite popular. Almost everyone can sing the chorus.

The most important thing is that the female vocals in this song are in English and are positioned as Feat, that is, backing vocals and special guest collaborators, and the number of lyrics is far less than that of the male vocals.

It can be said that he took good care of Li Xue.

After selecting the song, Li Xue's hell officially began: Bai Chou was not as casual about music as she had imagined.

As the saying goes, a journey of a hundred miles begins with a single step. The last 100 meters of Mount Everest is the most difficult and forbidden zone to climb.

Bai Chou has a wide range of hobbies, and it is difficult for him to maintain long-term enthusiasm for any hobby. He basically puts in the greatest enthusiasm in the initial stage when he makes the fastest progress. After achieving certain results, he suddenly gives up because he can't stand the inverted ratio of energy input to benefits.

This is how Bai Chou gave up music, but music is still his hobby. He just doesn't want to continue climbing the ladder. On the basis of his ability, Bai Chou will still maintain a certain degree of seriousness and concentration.

In order to maximize the performance effect, Bai Chou developed a very comprehensive vocal training plan for Li Xue.

On the morning of the first day, I watched Wang Leehom’s online course video to learn the most basic voice training techniques, and in the afternoon I warmed up my voice and practiced my chest voice.

The next morning, I practiced my voice, pitch, and special skills for two hours. In the afternoon, I practiced those few lines of lyrics. I did this for several days in a row.

"Please let me go, I'm begging you. I don't want to practice anymore, I don't want to learn anymore. Whoever wants to sing this song can sing it. Please let me go!"

"I want to tell Hyo Joo that you abused me. I want to see Hyo Joo. I want to see Hyo Joo!"

"I have to go back to military training. It's too hard. Singing is too hard!"

Li Xue was trained by Bai Chou to the point of crying for her parents without tears. She held on to the table and refused to move at all costs. This was different from the rehearsal she had imagined.

Her imagined rehearsal was to casually sing a few lines every day, singing to the level of a KTV god, and then find a place to hide, watch Douyin, listen to music, and drink coffee...

But Bai Chou is training her with the standards and training intensity of a professional singer. The rehearsal time is more than 4 hours a day, with theoretical knowledge learning and voice training each accounting for half.

Repeatedly practice the basic and special skills that will be used, sing those lines over and over again, and strive to be able to sing those lines to the level of Level 4 or Level 5 when you go on stage.

With a rank of 4 or 5, she is qualified enough to be the lead singer in most idol groups. Even if she only has a few lines of lyrics, it is very challenging for an amateur like Li Xue.

Being dragged by Bai Chou to practice singing is really not as relaxing as going back to military training.

"Do you think there's still a possibility for you to withdraw now? The program has already been signed up. If you change your mind now, you might get punished.

Hurry up and get up to practice the last section." Bai Chou rolled up the book and held it in his hand. He stood beside Li Xue, who was lying on the table, and with a stern expression, he slapped Li Xue's back lightly.

"I do not!"

Li Xue shook her head like a rattle and said firmly: "You just lied to me and said you would practice one last session, but after I finished practicing, I still had one more session.

Are you playing Infernal Affairs with me? Even if you are Anthony Wong, I am not Tony Leung Chiu Wai. I will not believe anything you say. Besides, I think my singing is good enough, no worse than Yang Chaoyue and Wu Xuanyi.

"You've compared yourself to them and you still say you're not any worse?"

Bai Chou was so angry that he laughed. His attitude softened a bit and he said softly, "Hurry up and get up. We'll finish the training in the last 15 minutes."

"Not even a minute!"

Li Xue suddenly raised her head and aimed at the half-open door of the rehearsal room. She seemed to have made some kind of decision and her eyes were very sharp. She suddenly jumped off the table, bypassed Bai Chou with an irregular three-threat move, and rushed to the door.

Goodbye, I won’t practice anymore no matter what you say today.

When Bai Chou saw Li Xue's triple-threat breakthrough, he immediately laughed out loud. Didn't you know that my nickname in junior high school was "Handan Dongfang Xiang"? I'm really showing off my skills in front of an expert.

Just as he was about to spread his arms to expand his defensive area and turn around to stop Li Xue, he suddenly heard Li Xue scream "Ouch!" and her foot suddenly slipped, paying tribute to Golden State's dunk king Curry, and fell sideways to the back. [Picture]

Diagonally behind Li Xue was where Bai Chou was standing.

Li Xue fell sideways into Bai Chou's arms, her torso and hands pressed against Bai Chou's chest, barely supporting her body to maintain balance.

In an instant, a soft touch like cotton wool in early spring, transmitted to Bai Chou's chest through the thin cloth, mixed with a faint fragrance, invaded Bai Chou's brain.

It shouldn't feel like this, at least not on this scale.

Bai Chou subconsciously glanced down at Li Xue in his arms. The girl's cheeks flushed slightly. After all, it was her first time to have such intimate physical contact with a young man.

Li Xue did not panic, but managed to maintain her composure. She raised her head and asked in a quiet voice, "How does it feel? Is it better than Hyo Joo's?"

"What a fart!"

Bai Chou pushed Li Xue away and said, "Comparing yourself to Hyo Joo, you think I can't feel it? Is this all padded out?"

In recent days, Li Xue, who no longer has to wear military uniform for military training, has a more pronounced rise and fall of her chest than when they first met a few days ago.

Bai Chou suspected that she had put more than one layer of padding.

　According to the settings I gave to Baizhi, Baizhi actually cannot sing the songs of Jay Chou and JJ Lin at all. Even if the pitch is always on point, it is difficult to get the audience's approval.

　　As far as modern pop music is concerned, Jay Chou and JJ Lin's singing skills are actually quite good, at least at the Professional 5 level. Most of the world's mainstream singers who perform live are basically around Professional 5, and the skills required for diverse styles will also be diverse.

　　However, Jay Chou and JJ Lin both have high-pitched voices, so Bai Zhi can only sing in a lower key. Even if the pitch is always on point, because both the original singer and the cover singer are male, and the difference in voice and range is too great, and there is no particularly personalized (Tengger) or outstanding adaptation, the audience will still feel awkward and think that the sound is not right.

　　But there will be no problem when Bai Zhi sings songs by female singers like G.E.M., who have higher pitches. Although they have to sing in a lower key, because it is a male singer covering a female singer's song, the audience will naturally accept the "difference in tone and lowered key" and will not worry about the wrong meaning.
