Chapter 273 Wang Zha’s appearance in “Qili Xiang”
Although it was fun to watch everyone cry, the atmosphere of the graduation ceremony was lost if they kept crying, so Xu Nuo interspersed the song “Qili Xiang” in the middle.
"Qili Xiang", when I mentioned this song and heard the intro, I felt like I was back in that summer.
On August 3, 2004, "Qili Xiang" came out.
In the past 20 years, no matter how the music scene changes, "Qili Xiang" has always stood firm.
In Apple Music's annual playlist, "Qilixiang" continuously ranked first as the hottest song in mainland China from 2021 to 2023. Only in 2020, it lost to "Sunny Day" and ranked second.
Among all Jay Chou's songs, "Qili Xiang" is undoubtedly the most popular one.
Such a song, Xu Nuo doesn’t want to put it out casually.
So he made a quiet gesture, and the stadium with tens of thousands of people suddenly fell silent.
Next, the band came on stage and only played the recorded accompaniment. Xu Nuo felt that this was a perfunctory approach to the song. Since it was sung, it had to be sung brilliantly.
This is the first time a formal band has appeared on the stage today, and there are many instruments that no one knows.
The teachers and students at the scene held their breath and looked forward to the next music.
As we all know, Nuoyan rarely asks for anything else when singing. To be able to do it so solemnly must be a stunning work.
At this time, an unexpected person appeared on the stage, Lin Wanqing.
She walked onto the stage wearing a white dress and holding a guitar.
The quiet gym suddenly erupted with cheers and screams.
At this moment, everyone suddenly thought of that summer, when Nuoyan walked onto the stage holding a guitar and accompanied Lin Wanqing.
The audience at the scene suppressed their excitement and discussed in low voices for fear of disturbing their singing, but the audience in the live broadcast room had no such scruples.
The barrage went crazy, "Together! Together!"
"Okay, okay, I ate another meal of dog food."
"Kill me to cheer them up!"
Many people stood up excitedly, and the experts frantically took screenshots. This is a lot of information. Last year on this day, I promised to accompany Lin Wanqing, and now Lin Wanqing accompanies Nuoyan.
What does it mean to go in both directions!
It’s so exciting!
On the stage, Xu Nuo smiled fondly. He didn't know about this before. It was probably Lin Wanqing's deliberate arrangement.
He raised his hand and waved to the more than 10,000 teachers and students present, and the song information was displayed on the screen.
"Qili Xiang" has only these three words.
If other songs need the name Promise to make listeners pay attention, then this song does not.
No other introduction is needed at all. He believes that many, many years later, this song will still echo in the minds of more than 10,000 people at the scene.
The millions of viewers in the live broadcast room are not immune. Today’s scene will become an eternal classic.
The accompaniment sounded, the sound of wind.
Like the wind passing through the valley, it gives people a clear sense of emptiness and a sense of freshness blown by the wind.
On July 7th, it was a hot day, and everyone in the stadium seemed to feel cool all of a sudden. This is the feeling of summer.
In the sound of wind, there is also the sound of wind chimes.
Then there is the vibrator. The sound of the vibrator is bright and clear, which can better enhance the same sense of clarity in summer.
It was a new instrument again, and the teachers and students at the scene became quiet, for fear of missing any syllable.
It sounds good, just the prelude can let them see the picture of summer.
The audience in the live broadcast room felt the same way. It is rare for a song to immerse them in just this intro.
After the vibrator, the drums join in, and then the guitar.
Lin Wanqing strummed the guitar in her hand, and the camera showed her very sensibly.
Knocking experts are everywhere. Don’t think that camera operators don’t Knock on CP. Sometimes they Knock on the ground more enthusiastically.
Lin Wanqing was wearing a white dress that matched Xu Nuo's white dress. She was holding her guitar, smiling, intoxicated, and looking at Xu Nuo's back with gentle eyes.
At this moment, she suddenly thought, what kind of eyes did this man look at her on this day last year?
Gentle? Or a lustful look?
Thinking of this, her face turned slightly red. When she saw the camera turning around, she just glanced lightly and continued to look at Xu Nuo's back and pluck the strings.
Lin Wanqing's gentle and affectionate smile appeared on the large screens on both sides.
You can't hide your love for someone. Just by looking at it, everyone present will be shown off.
The teachers and students at the scene all had aunty smiles on their faces. To be a master of knocking, you have to learn what knocks the most.
Senior brothers and sisters from the same school, with very different statuses, met each other at the graduation ceremony, and then fell in love. It is a perfect youth love story.
Li He was having fun in the front row, recording with his cell phone.
As the prelude continued, Xu Nuo looked back at Lin Wanqing.
This scene was decisively captured by the cameraman, and another famous scene was born.
Crazy screenshots from the live broadcast room.
In the prelude of "Qili Xiang", the guitar is not the main instrument. The band originally suggested that Lin Wanqing change it, but Lin Wanqing thought about it and refused. The guitar is better.
In the short 27-second prelude, 11 kinds of musical instruments appeared, but it was not cluttered at all.
The sweetest thing is a garden party, and the most beautiful thing is Qilixiang.
The 11 musical instruments in the prelude have only one feeling, beautiful.
Some of the music professors at the scene couldn’t sit still. This prelude was so amazing.
The intro alone can kill most songs.
In pop music, more than three consecutive tones appear in a measure, and the first note is on the heavy beat of the changing chord, and the subsequent tones continue the chord development, which is called overdubbing. This is the key to the melody. Big taboo. Most songwriters avoid this and don't use too many instruments.
But in this prelude, every chord change is on the heavy beat, and the chords change more than 2 times in each measure. The contrast is neat, small first and then big. It can be said that it is all about technique.
The professors could only sigh: "Genius!"
This cannot be taught by teachers, even they cannot make such a piece of music.
On the stage, Xu Nuo was wearing a loose white shirt and looked full of youth. He raised the microphone.
Everyone at the scene was in high spirits. Come on, the intro is so perfect, and the verses and chorus must be equally exciting.
“The sparrows outside the window are talkative on the telephone poles,
When you say this, it feels like summer,
The pencil in your hand is going back and forth on the paper,
I use a few lines to describe who you are to me.”
Beautiful lyrics, like a poem.
In the hot summer, sparrows chatter on the telephone poles, and the sun shines brightly outside the window.
This is summer, summer is special for everyone.
Because it is often associated with youth, love, and farewell.
Every June and July is the season of farewell.
Feelings that have been endured for three or four years often burst out this summer.
On this July 7th, it is most appropriate to sing this song Qili Xiang.
Hearing this, Lin Wanqing was thoughtful.
No wonder I always feel like something is missing. It turns out to be a love letter.
She had received many love letters over the years, but she had not read any of them and threw them all into the trash can.
Of course, she never wrote a love letter.
In a sweet relationship, love letters seem to be an essential thing.
How about writing one?
Lin Wanqing was thoughtful.
Many people at the scene had the same idea as her.
Love letters are an integral part of love.
In an age where the Internet is so developed, many people like to express their love on social software, but there is never a love letter that can make people's hearts move.
On the stage, Xu Nuo looked at the more than 10,000 people waving and swaying in the audience, and suddenly felt like there was a concert.
On earth, as soon as the prelude of "Qili Xiang" is played, thousands of people will sing in chorus. During a concert, when this song is played, it means that the concert is about to end.
Now, this is a new song. There is no chorus, so I feel a little uncomfortable.
"Both the cat and you want to know the taste of saury.
The fragrance of first love is found by us in this way,
The warm sunshine is like freshly picked bright strawberries,
You said you couldn’t bear to eat this feeling. ”
The lyrics are full of sugar and the voice is gentle and clear.
At this moment, Lin Wanqing felt that she had completely fallen.
Not only her, but most of the people at the scene fell.
First love, like white moonlight, is a poison with no solution.
If you eat it, you will never be able to save it.
Who is Lin Wanqing’s first love? Nature is a promise.
It's amazing that with her appearance, she never had her first love.
On the one hand, Lin’s father, Brother Lin, is tough enough and can scare away many young people who are in love with him just by showing up.
On the other hand, she has a very high vision and can never find the person she likes.
When she met Xu Nuo, she was just curious at first, but curiosity was poison. She took the poison half-heartedly and found that she had fallen in love with Xu Nuo.
Later, with the help of Xuancheng and the instigation of her best friend, she took the opportunity to make a drunken promise to reveal her feelings.
Although the process was a bit tortuous, the result was wonderful, and the promise to take advantage of the situation showed his sincerity.
Then the two of them got together naturally.
Lin Wanqing looked at Xu Nuo’s back in a daze, what kind of fish is saury? Is it tasty?
In the live broadcast room, all the comments were flooded with "Is saury delicious?"
Only the fish seller discovered the business opportunity and quickly typed out "Saury of the same type as "Qili Xiang"", and then as expected, the fish were sold out.
The students present were in pain. Every line of the song made them want to sing along, but they couldn't bear to break the atmosphere.
It sounds so good, fresh, sweet, my heart is beating fast, I wish I could find the one I like right away and sing a song called Qili Xiang.
At this time, the large screens on the left and right sides of the stage suddenly switched. On the left was the figure of Xu Nuo singing, and on the right was the figure of Lin Wanqing sitting and playing the guitar.
The scene finally couldn't bear it anymore, and a burst of screams broke out.
What is this called? This is called official punishment.
Who is a serious director who would put musicians and singers together, but that’s what they did.
No more pretense, just show your cards and let’s fight together.
At graduation ceremonies, it is not uncommon for people to hold their children and wear wedding dresses under their bachelor's uniforms. It is also normal for officials to sneer at each other.
Xu Nuo glanced at the big screen. Although she was speechless, her expression was very calm. Lin Wanqing's face turned a little red.
Her blush was also accurately captured by the photographer, and the scene was filled with whistles.
