Chapter 1823 The Best Song of the Year

This is a very delicate job, and it also requires eyesight. Even my fourth cousin can't do it. He can only be responsible for cleaning. Repairing this step requires thoughtfulness and slow work with my fourth aunt. Come.

The restoration was officially completed one month later. The four pictures can be regarded as breaking the Yang School's traditional style of only retaining the heart of the painting and repairing it as before, while the rest of the accessories can be replaced. The principle of "maximum preservation" was applied to the whole , which can be regarded as advancing with the times.

On the day the paintings were repaired, godfather Wu Lingjun came. He wanted to personally escort the four paintings and the fourth cousin and aunt to Beijing.

Because my fourth aunt had difficulty traveling, Zhou Zhi mobilized the foundation’s Three Gorges research ship to send several people to Yuzhou to take a flight.

After arranging everything, it was time for him to set off.

Because we were driving from Jiachuan to Lianhe Township, the route this time was different. We first followed the Yangtze River from Jiachuan to Yizhou, and then along the Min River from Yizhou to Jianwei in Jiazhou. After passing Muchuan, you can reach Mabian.

Although Mabian belongs to Jiazhou, it is a Yi autonomous county, indicating that it has entered the Yi area.

After that, we go all the way up the valley of Mabian River to the end of the valley, then climb up Jigong Mountain through the winding mountain road, pass the highest Dafengding Pass, and finally go down the mountain all the way to reach Lianhe Township.

After the car entered Mabian, both sides of the road became completely deserted. Except for a lonely national highway, there were only some scattered villages and towns on both sides of the road.

Both sides of the river valley are hillside dry lands, with limited farming area. Most of them are covered by forests. From time to time, clear mountain springs flow down from the culverts under the road into the Mabian River.

The scenery along the way is simply too good to be true. The climate is cool, the air is humid, and the vegetation is luxuriant.

This area is the origin of tea. Zhou Zhi saw that many hillsides were opened up not as cultivated land, but as tea gardens.

The tea produced in this area is usually made into black brick tea and sold to Yi and Tibetan areas. It has been an artifact of the ethnic minorities in southwest Jisu since ancient times. In exchange for livestock from the two areas, this is " The origin of the name "The Ancient Tea Horse Road".

The national highway that Zhou Zhi takes now was actually one of the important transportation routes in southwest China in ancient times.

Now, thousands of years have passed, except that the road has become a highway that can drive cars, the scenery on both sides of the road has actually not changed much.

The bamboo resources on this side are particularly rich. There are all kinds of bamboos all over the mountains and plains. Zhou Zhi even saw a naive giant panda by the water. It was a pity that the wild giant panda was so agile that he didn’t wait for him to touch it. As soon as I took out the camera, the giant panda had already swung its butt and disappeared into the bamboo forest.

But there is a plant as precious as the giant panda that cannot escape - Davidia involucrata.

The best time to identify the Davidia involucrata is in April and May. At that time, its flowers look like white doves spreading their wings, so it is also called the "dove tree". Now the fruit of the Davidia involucrata has reached its maturity stage. The fruit is like a spherical chestnut, with three or five seeds inside, but it is inedible.

Fortunately, there are a lot of things to eat on the roadside, including wild bayberry, wild grapes, kiwi fruit, wild sweet potatoes... all of which are fully mature.

Wild sweet potatoes are very sweet. When driving, a fragrant smell will suddenly hit your face. Stop the car and stand under the wild sweet potato vines growing on the roadside. You can quickly pick out a large handful.

If Zhou Zhi were to choose the most delicious wild fruits, wild sweet potatoes and jujubes should be at the top of the list.

The kiwi fruit has to be taken back and covered with rice bran to ripen it. The kiwi fruit is delicious after being cooked, but now it is sour and astringent. Wild grapes and wild bayberries are very sour even after they are ripe, and they taste unfriendly when eaten directly. However, they are good ingredients for making wine and bayberry wine, so they cannot be ignored.

So Zhou Zhi started to stop and go. It was 400 kilometers from Jiachuan to Mabian. Zhou Zhi only ran for one day. It was more than 100 kilometers from Mabian to Lianhe Township, but he Another day of running.

If the scenery hadn't changed after crossing the windy peak, from subtropical and temperate forests to plateau meadows, Zhou Zhi might have wasted even more time.

The scenery along the way is quite impressive. The sky and meadows under the setting sun are particularly beautiful. Zhou Zhi felt that Xu Wei should be singing on the CD at this time.

However, although Xu Wei has composed more than a hundred songs now, the only ones that are somewhat famous are "Blue Bird" and "Two Days". Even the band disbanded last year. Now he still has labels on his body. He is just a guitarist, and he is also the author of the hit song "Perseverance".

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhi opened the CD of Guan Tingting's new album and put it on the record player.

Guan Tingting's CD is still released during the summer vacation according to the old habit, focusing on the student market.

But in this CD, in addition to a few sweet songs, there are six songs specially selected by Zhou Zhi to improve the quality - "Dream Water Village", "Moonlight in the City", "Laughing at the Storm", "Legend of Love" , "My Heart is Too Confused".

There is also a song "Listening to the Sea" that attempts a new style.

Among them, "Dream Waterside" and Guan Tingting's famous song "Hometown" are almost the same style, which has firmly captured his old fans. "Legend of Love" is actually Tai Zhengxiao's " The Cantonese version of "One Thousand and One Nights" is somewhat similar in style and range to "Hasa Yaqi", and Guan Tingting is also very familiar with it. Together with the chorus of "Laughing at the Wind and Cloud", it is her attempt at Cantonese.

The remaining "Moonlight in the City", "My Heart is Too Confused" and "Listen to the Sea" are the foundation for Guan Tingting's attempt to change her style from a "little princess with sweet songs" to a "variety of singers" work.

"Moonlight in the City" is her best lyrical line, which is especially suitable for her sweet voice, but the lyrics carry a lot more emotion. To perform it well, there will definitely be a change in singing style.

"My Heart Is Too Confused" is Zhou Chuanxiong's second song chosen by Zhou Zhi for Guan Tingting to perform after "Hasa Yaqi". Everyone admits that this song is actually much better performed with a female voice than a male voice, and the lyrics have "My heart is too chaotic, I am afraid of the betrayal of love, I want to cry, like a lost child", which is also particularly suitable for Guan Tingting's age.

This song has been polished for a long time. In addition to being polished by Tu Huiyuan himself, Zhou Chuanxiong also attached great importance to it. The main reason is that the feeling of collapse in the song before knowing that it will be hurt by love is very difficult to express.

However, this problem was solved soon after. There is a method in literary creation called empathy and affection. Although Guan Tingting did not say it explicitly, after learning that Zhou Zhi and Jiang Shuyi had broken up, she felt very interested in the song. The performance suddenly made Tu Huiyuan and Zhou Chuanxiong exclaim that this little girl suddenly became "spiritual".

These songs are all huge hits without any surprise, but the one that can be described as red-hot is "Listen to the Sea", which Zhou Zhi can only secretly apologize for his sister in his heart.

This song is very suitable for performing in the jazz and RB style, plus the requirements for high and low ranges, the conversion of true and false tones, the conversion of high-pitched strong to weak mixing, and the use of dolphin sounds, flexible Changeable modulations, etc., can all be expressed through this song.

In addition to the emotion of this song, it is also very suitable for Guan Tingting. The eighteen-year-old girl can already express emotions such as longing and sadness, and the rest is to show off her skills.

In this song, Guan Tingting used various techniques she learned from Mariah Carey's music style with ease. I don't know how much effort it took for her and Tang Qi.

This song is also considered by Zhou Zhi to be the highest-level song that Guan Tingting has ever sung. This song has now swept through all the major hit charts and has become the undisputed "Best Hit of the Year".
