The sky is getting darker and the sun is getting closer to the sea level.
The door of the "big dining hall" slowly became quiet, but the sound of the waves became more and more obvious.
The tourists have already been seated. Those who arrived early have found seats, while those who arrived late can only stand next to them. The chairs prepared by Huang Youfa and others cannot satisfy all tourists.
The performance hasn’t started yet, but the tourists are not in a hurry. Many people turn their faces towards the sea and enjoy the beautiful scenery at the end of the venue at dusk.
Today's performance was not notified in advance. Most tourists did not know that there would be a performance before they came. They came just because the tourist popularity is very high these days compared to the end of the show, plus news reports After hearing about the wedding of Zhou Yan and Wang Zuxian, many people wanted to come and have a look.
Many people came to know that the so-called wedding between Zhou Yan and Wang Zuxian was just for filming a movie.
However, even though they were "cheated", the trip was not in vain. They at least got the beautiful scenery at the end of the field and a temporary performance.
Until 6:30, the sun has fallen more than half below the sea level, and there is still a little bit above the sea level. At this moment, almost all tourists are watching the sunset.
The host Shen Yan, who had already stepped onto the stage, was not in a hurry to speak. Instead, he waited until the sun went down before patting the microphone. "I can't help but be attracted."
Hearing Ana Shen's words, people began to turn around and look at the stage.
After they all turned around, Ana Shen spoke again, "Before the performance starts, let me briefly explain why there is this performance. The filming of "Time Traveler" at the end of the scene was all completed yesterday..."< br>
Shen Yan briefly explained why there was tonight's performance, and also promoted the movie.
After that, he didn't say anything more and directly announced the start of the performance, "Next, I would like to invite you to enjoy "If Love Has God's Will" sung by Li Naiwen."
As soon as Shen Yan finished speaking, Before anyone could leave, the prelude of "If Love Has God's Will" could already be heard.
It goes without saying that the song "If Love Has God's Will" is popular in Pengcheng. Although it has only been a few years, this song has already become a classic.
Whether a song can become a classic often depends on how well it is covered. Usually the more covers and the higher the quality, the more likely it is to become a classic.
Anita Mui’s original song is definitely the most popular, but there are also many popular cover versions. Many singers in Hong Kong have covered this song, and even Jacky Cheung sang a part on a show before.
It's a pity that Zhang Xueyou only sang one part and did not record the full version. Many fans felt very regretful.
In addition to the Cantonese version, the neon language version sung by Kudo Shizuka also has a large audience, and the neon language version is not only popular in neon China, but also in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
What Li Naiwen is singing now is naturally the Cantonese version, and the accompaniment is also Anita Mui’s original version.
After the prelude ended, Li Naiwen's singing sounded. Zhou Yan raised his eyebrows. Li Naiwen's singing was better than he expected.
Of course, it was just better than he imagined, and certainly not comparable to professional singers.
“Hey, Xiao Li’s Cantonese is not bad.” Wang Zuxian said with a smile.
Zhou Yan nodded, "Well, he seems to have learned it during this period."
"Quite talented."
Li Naiwen's singing is quite satisfactory. Although Wang Zuxian said that his Cantonese pronunciation is good, he will definitely not escape the ears of the locals when he sings in Cantonese in Pengcheng. People will know that he is an outsider as soon as they hear it.
Fortunately, the song "If Love Has God's Will" is very popular and most people at the scene have heard it, so it can easily resonate with the audience.
When Li Naiwen sang in the middle, some not-so-loud chorus sounds could be heard underneath.
After Li Naiwen warmed up the place, Li Xiaoran came on stage to perform a dance.
She danced a folk dance. Although she did not wear suitable clothes due to limited conditions, she was still able to perform well even though she only wore ordinary clothes.
Zhou Yan also secretly lamented that Li Xiaoran was really being chased by God to feed him.
Dancing is the same as music, it requires regular practice.
If you don’t practice for one day, you will know it. If you don’t practice for two days, your peers will know it. If you don’t practice for three days, the audience will know it.
After Li Xiaoran came to the crew, Zhou Yan had never seen her practice dancing at all, and according to her personality, after quitting the dance troupe, she would not continue to practice.
Without practicing for such a long time, Li Xiaoran is still able to maintain a very high level. It is hard to say whether he can fool his peers, but he has no problem dealing with the audience.
The key point is that Li Xiaoran is upright and good-looking. Once he steps on the stage, half of the audience will be conquered.
After Li Xiaoran’s dance, there was a skit arranged by Liu Qing and the others.
This skit was well arranged. When it was performed in Yanjing before, it was quite popular. Otherwise, Liu Qing and the others would not have come up with this show. However, the response today was average.
Including the stand-up comedy behind the sketch, the response was also average.
The two art forms of sketch and cross talk are obviously not particularly popular in Pengcheng.
But later Jiao Huang came out and sang a piece of Peking Opera, and the applause was quite warm.
Zhou Yan didn’t know whether the audience was so supportive because the singer was Jiao Huang, or because they could really accept Peking Opera.
The performance is not long, with a total of forty minutes and eight programs.
After all the performances were completed, Zhou Yan walked onto the stage.
As soon as he appeared on the stage, there was warm applause. This was the loudest applause so far tonight. The loudest applause before was when Jiao Huang sang Peking Opera.
After the applause subsided a little, Zhou Yan patted the microphone and said, "Today is actually an internal team building for our crew. Everyone is in a good mood, so we simply arranged a few shows to make it lively. But to be able to welcome such a We are very happy to have so many viewers. We hope that the shows just now can leave you with some good memories."
As soon as Zhou Yan finished speaking, someone shouted from below, "Director Zhou, you. Come one too!”
The person who shouted this was not a tourist or a member of the crew, but the nephew of the village chief Huang Youfa.
As soon as he shouted these words, Huang Youfa quickly grabbed his arm and signaled him not to cause trouble.
But it was too late for Huang Youfa to pull his arm, because when he shouted, the tourists behind him also started to boo.
"Come on, come on."
"Come on one."
Zhou Yan has no plans to perform, and it's getting late now. Everyone is probably hungry. He thought about finishing his words quickly and going in to eat.
But when he saw Xu Guanwen also cheering, he suddenly laughed, "As for me, I won't perform today because I don't have any musical instruments with me. If I sing, I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep at night. How about that? How about I invite someone to come up and sing for you?" Before the audience could react, Zhou Yan took two steps forward and pulled Xu Guanwen's arm.
Xu Guanwen was making noise with others when he was suddenly grabbed by Zhou Yan's arm. He waved his hand quickly, "No, no."
He wanted to break free, but after two attempts he found that Zhou Yan was very strong. He couldn't get away at all, and before he could react, he was pulled up.
Xu Guanwen was pulled onto the stage, and Zhou Yan waved to Jiang Mengfei who was holding the guitar in the audience. Jiang Mengfei understood and directly brought the guitar up.
Zhou Yan put the guitar into Xu Guanwen's hand and said with a smile, "Come on."
Xu Guanwen was originally reserved when he was off the stage, but now he is more generous after he is on stage. , nodded and hugged the guitar directly.
"In this case, I will show off and sing a song. If the song is not good, everyone can boo me, but you must not throw anything on stage to hit me."
As the king of comedy of the previous generation in Hong Kong, Xu Guanwen As soon as he came on stage, there was a lot of laughter. At this moment, he made a joke casually, and the audience burst into laughter with their hands in their hands.
Seeing that Xu Guanwen was about to sing, some viewers found it funny, but others were filled with anticipation.
Xu Guanwen stopped joking, held the guitar and swept it twice, and then said, "I give you a song of "Iron Tower Ling Yun"."
According to Xu Guanwen's style, before singing, he must be You have to chat with the audience first, which may take longer than singing.
But today's situation was special. The celebration party hadn't started yet, so he couldn't waste too much time.
To be honest, he was a little hungry himself.
The audience at the scene couldn't help but exclaimed when they heard "Iron Tower Ling Yun".
The song "Iron Tower Lingyun" has special significance to the Cantonese music scene. It is Xu Guanjie's first Cantonese pop song, and is also known as the beginning of modern Cantonese pop songs.
It can be said that this song represents an era.
And this song was written by Xu Guanwen.
Xu Guanwen played in a band in his early years and played the guitar well. His younger brother Xu Guanjie also followed him and started playing guitar. It can be said that Xu Guanjie's music leader was Xu Guanwen.
Sometimes Xu Guanwen would joke that he sang like his younger brother Xu Guanjie, but he had not become famous after singing for many years.
This is a joke, but there are also parts that are true.
Of course, the most true thing is the last sentence. He did not become famous, so many people didn’t know that he could still sing.
The voices of the two Xu brothers are very similar. When Xu Guanwen sang "Iron Tower Ling Yun", there were two lines that sounded like Xu Guanjie's singing.
To be honest, although Xu Guanwen's singing is not bad, he is really not as good as his younger brother Xu Guanjie.
However, when Xu Guanwen picked up the guitar and started singing "Tower of Sky", it was destined to explode the scene, and most of the audience could sing along.
This song has been released for more than 20 years, but over the years, it has been covered by many people, such as Alan Tam, Andy Lau, and Lin Yilian. It is also because of these people's covers that this song can still be used today. Be remembered by your audience.
When the song was finished, Xu Guanwen breathed a long sigh of relief, "It's not bad. Although I haven't sung it for a long time, it's not too unpleasant to listen to."
Although Zhou Yanqiang pulled him into it, Xu Guanwen himself was quite happy singing.
This kind of performance environment is his favorite. Looking at the audience and listening to the sound of waves in the distance, he can even think of the time when he formed a band when he was in school.
The fifties and sixties were such a wonderful time for him.
At that time, although his family conditions were not as good as they would later be, he could be said to be carefree at that time. It could be said that he woke up happy and full of energy every day, and seemed to be happy every day. There is hope.
Even though his family was poor and he had to go to night school part-time to teach English in middle school, he still felt that those days were fulfilling and happy.
Later, he went to normal school first and taught middle school for three years after graduation. After saving enough money, he went to the Chinese University of Hong Kong. He woke up with goals and motivation every day.
On the contrary, now, he feels that he has no motivation.
Now he went on stage to sing a song, which aroused his emotions for a long time.
Looking at the enthusiastic response from the audience, Zhou Yan also laughed, secretly thinking that he was right to pull Xu Guanwen up.
Of course, he brought Xu Guanwen here not only to arouse the enthusiasm of the audience, but also to make Xu Guanwen happy.
After spending this time together, Zhou Yan found that Xu Guanwen was very different from the public impression. He was a bit serious and a bit melancholy. Sometimes Zhou Yan wondered whether Xu Guanwen was like this just to adapt to the role in "Space Traveler".
Xu Guanwen played a screenwriter who was unhappy with his life in "Space Traveler" and always looked unhappy.
Zhou Yan originally cast Xu Guanwen because he was good at acting, but he didn’t expect that his private image turned out to be like this, and he fit the role of the screenwriter very well.
Having come into contact with the two generations of comedy kings in Hong Kong, Xu Guanwen and Zhou Xingchi, Zhou Yan found that those who engage in comedy seem to be very serious and even melancholic in private.
Of course, Xu Guanwen is not as stubborn as Zhou Xingchi, and his temper is better.
This was also the first time Zhou Yan saw Xu Guanwen so happy.
Zhou Yan walked onto the stage with a smile, took the microphone and said, "Thank you Mr. Xu Guanwen for the wonderful performance. Next..."
Xu Guanwen immediately answered, "Next, do you want Director Zhou to perform a show for us?"
The audience responded very cooperatively, "Yes!"
If Zhou Yan wanted to say anything else, Xu Guanwen played the guitar He stuffed it into his arms, and his movements were exactly the same as when Zhou Yan stuffed the guitar into his arms just now.
The offensive and defensive momentum is different!
"I..."
"I know you can play the guitar, "Meteor", right?" Xu Guanwen directly blocked Zhou Yan's next words.
Zhou Yan rarely plays the guitar, but in the commercial he shot for Panasonic, he showed off his guitar, and it was the song "Meteor", which was later sung by the Backstreet Boys, "Yellow".
Seeing that Xu Guanwen was not ready to let him go, Zhou Yan did not shirk anymore. After all, he had just forced Xu Guanwen away, and now he could only say that he deserved this retribution. (End of chapter)
