Chapter 157 "Last Night's Book"
"Let us get to know the following classic singer."
At the center of the stage of "Ode to Ancient Times", the host Xiao Sa said loudly.
Amidst the exciting music and cheers from the audience, Bai Xingjian, dressed in a black suit, walked steadily to the stage.
"Welcome Bai Xingjian to "Song of the Ancients"!" Xiao Sa stepped forward to greet him.
"Hello, Teacher Sa!"
"Hello!"
The two shook hands.
"Which poem did you choose this time?" Xiao Sa asked Bai Xingjian.
Bai Xingjian calmly held up the microphone: "What I want to sing for you this time is "Xiao Chong Mountain: Last Night the Cold Cockroaches Couldn't Stop Crying" by our great national hero Yue Fei."
"Wow! It's actually a poem by Yue Fei!"
"Yue Fei? Brother Xing Jian is basing this on his own experience!"
"Hahaha, little surfing expert Shi Zhui!"
"So the songs sung in this show are all combined with ancient poetry? Brother Xingjian has such a strong creative ability, the song tonight should be good, right?"
"That's for sure, Looking forward to it!”
"I just hope he won't tarnish the poems written by Yue Fei."
"Yes! As Bai Xingjian said just now, Yue Fei is a great national hero. If Bai Xingjian's song is played tonight, then His fate will be..."
Bai Xingjian is very popular. As soon as she appeared on the show, the barrage went up. True fans and negative fans coexisted.
......
On the stage, Xiao Sa said: "This poem is different from the familiar "Man Jiang Hong". "Man Jiang Hong" is the aspirational and heroic spirit of "Angrily rushing to the crown and leaning on the railing", and This song is a melancholy echo of "Get up and walk around the stairs alone"
"Yes." Bai Xingjian nodded.
Xiao Sa looked at where the appreciation group was and said, "Then let's ask Teacher Kang to interpret this poem."
On the other side of the stage, Kang Zhen from the School of Liberal Arts of Peking University , began to introduce Yue Fei to everyone and introduce this poem.
"Xiaozhong Mountain·The Cockroaches Couldn't Stop Crying in the Cold Last Night" was written by Yue Fei in the eighth year of Shaoxing in the Southern Song Dynasty. It was a period when the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty "negotiated peace" and were not allowed to use troops.
During this period, Yue Fei was extremely depressed. He opposed compromise and surrender, and believed that the anti-gold cause could succeed. Moreover, he had won many major battles, and was ready to recover the Central Plains on a large scale and go north to destroy the gold.
However, at this time, Zhao Gou, Emperor Gaozong of the Song Dynasty, appointed Qin Hui, who tried his best to compromise and advocate peace, as prime minister. They began to stop resisting the Jin Dynasty and persecuted the main war factions like Yue Fei.
The great situation of resisting the Jin Dynasty and restoring the country was in vain. Coupled with the jealous persecution of Zhao Gou and Qin Hui, as well as the obstruction of many ministers, Yue Fei, who was reclusive and hard to find close friends, wrote this poem.
The audience in front of the screen listened with great interest.
"Yue Fei is really loyal to the court!"
"Yes! He is dedicated to the country and is a very loyal minister!"
"Hey, isn't this inappropriate [I originally turned my heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon shines in the ditch]?"
"I'll choke you! It turns out that this sentence "If you have few close friends, who will listen when the string is broken?" "Xiao Chong Mountain"?"
"I have learned a lot."
"Damn it! Zhao Gou and Qin Hui are just two **."
"That's right. ! The Southern Song Dynasty deserves to be destroyed!”
...
"After listening to Teacher Kang's interpretation, Xing Jian, what do you think?" Xiao Sa asked.
Bai Xingjian pondered for a moment, held up the microphone and said: "I just feel that in Yue Fei, he has both the pride of being a great hero and the tenderness of a hero's son and daughter, whether it is his filial piety towards his mother , the care for the soldiers, or the pain in his own heart when he dreamed back at night, these are very real and flesh and blood."
"Yes," Xiao Sa nodded and continued to ask. : "Then what do you think of this combination of traditional poetry and music?"
Bai Xingjian said indifferently: "The more important point is the fit between the words and the music. Only when the words follow the music When combined closely, the work can both convey emotion and express meaning. ”
"Talents can be combined into one." Xiao Sa said with a smile.
“Yes.” Bai Xingjian responded.
"Okay." Xiao Sa continued to smile, "Then please go to the main stage. Next, let us start Bai Xingjian's classic singing moment together!"
In the live audience Amidst the applause and the elegant and melodious sound of guzheng, Bai Xingjian walked through the aisle and came to the main stage.
“As expected of a program related to CCTV, this stage feels much more atmospheric than the one at Mango!” Mei Jie praised.
"It's indeed quite good." Bai Xingjian smiled, "But the sound system of "Song of Ancients" is a bit far from that of "Song of Songs 2024". It can be said that they are not on the same level at all."
Hearing this, Feng Shiqi smiled and joked: "After all, "Ode to Ancient Times" is half a popular science music program, half of it is atmosphere and half of it is music."
In the gorgeous lights, Bai Xingjian came to the center of the main stage. He held up the microphone and said: "I am Bai Xingjian, the classic singer. I will sing "Last Night's Book" to you."
After the words fell, he sang Song information appears on the screen.
【Last Night's Book】
[Singer: Bai Xingjian]
[Lyrics: (Song Dynasty) Yue Fei/Bai Xingjian]
[Composer: Bai Xingjian]
[Arranger: Bai Xingjian Jane]
“He didn’t ask anyone for help. He completed this song all by himself?”
Li Zhenxi said in surprise.
Looking at it this way, it seems that Bai Xingjian is not as talented as he thought.
Wang Yaqi looked at the TV with quite envious eyes: "Is the stage of "Song of the Ancients" so beautiful? A song is a new scene."
Li Zhenxi forced a smile : "I just don't know what kind of effect he will get when he sings this song?"
"Yue Fei's "Little Heavy Mountain" is not easy to interpret." Wang Yaqi's lips curled up with a cold arc: "If Bai Xingjian would be wrong Without understanding the meaning of this poem, no matter how well written "Last Night's Book" is, he will become a laughing stock."
Jealousy towards Bai Xingjian and Phoenix Yu Fei has caused some changes in Wang Yaqi's state of mind.
……
On the stage.
The desolate piano, the faint sound of howling wind, and the melodious sound of the guqin weave the accompaniment into a desolate atmosphere.
When the piano sound became heavy, Bai Xingjian raised the microphone.
"Last night, the cold crickets couldn't stop crying"
"I was shocked to return to my dream of a thousand miles away, it's been the third watch"
Last night, the cold autumn crickets couldn't stop crying, dreaming of returning to their hometown, thousands of miles of war burning, when I was awakened , also three updates.
"Get up and walk around the steps alone"
"The people are quiet, the moon is dim outside the curtain"
He stood up and walked around the steps alone. It was quiet all around. Looking at the curtains, he saw only a hazy pale moon.
This is the upper part of Yue Fei's "Xiaozhong Mountain: Last Night the Cold Cockroaches Couldn't Stop Crying", which focuses on describing the scenery.
Bai Xingjian's singing voice is very cold. When singing this song, he put himself into the role of Yue Fei.
Many viewers in front of the screen were also shocked by Bai Xingjian's performance.
“Brother Xing Jian is really kneeling down!”
"The singing feels so desolate! And his voice fits the lyrics so well!"
"It tastes so right! It feels like the best poetry I have sung in so many issues!"< br>
......
"It's really amazing!"
Su Caitao, who was in front of the computer screen, couldn't help but sigh: "Bai Xingjian's singing was so surprising!"
The barrage in her live broadcast room also started flowing at an extremely fast speed.
......
"A white head is for fame"
"The old mountains have old pines and bamboos, blocking the return journey"
Bai Xingjian's voice became louder and louder. .
"I want to express my thoughts to Yao Qin"
"I have few close friends. Who will listen when the string is broken?"
Hearing this, many viewers got goosebumps. They stared at the screen intently. Afraid of missing a frame.
"At the beginning, I have finished singing "Little Heavy Mountain" written by Yue Fei. Can the lyrics you write next borrow the rhyme of Yue Fei?"
Wang Yaqi smiled coldly, and Li Zhenxi also So, many viewers in front of the screen also thought so.
But the next second, the smiles on Wang Yaqi and Li Zhenxi's faces suddenly froze.
I saw Bai Xingjian singing in a high-pitched voice:
"In the dream, I was fighting against the thorns and clanking iron clothes"
"I have taken advantage of the long wind last night and flowed eastward with the waves"< br>
"The horses outside the city shook their heads and stamped their hooves"
"Peng lifts his head to look at the cold rain"
"I just sigh at the celebration hanging down from all over the world"
Bai Xingjian's delicate and slightly desolate singing voice interprets Yue Fei's passion The heroic spirit is a tragic process of how to cool down helplessly.
The barrage immediately exploded:
"Wucao! Bai Xingjian really caught this lyric!"
"It's true that a sparrow pecks a cow's butt and a bird eats a cow's butt!" "The lyrics I wrote are so well integrated with those written by Yue Fei. This song will definitely become a hit!"
" Bai Xingjian’s creative ability is so terrifying!”
“My mother asked me why I knelt down to watch Bai Xingjian sing”
……
Listening to these original lyrics by Bai Xingjian, Su Caitao's eyes lit up and she felt amazed.
She expressed her opinion to the fans in the live broadcast room: "The previous "Little Heavy Mountain" is from Yue Fei's perspective, while Bai Xingjian's original lyrics are like his own perspective. Bai Xingjian Jane traveled back in time and witnessed that Yue Fei's ambition was hard to achieve. "
Su Caitao took a sip of tea and continued: "The word "Peng Ju" in "Peng Ju Kan Leng Yu" is Yue Fei's character. Perhaps it is Bai Xingjian's clever strokes that make us feel the same in his singing, as if we have witnessed Yue Fei's compromise in the face of the fly camp and the dog Gou, as well as the heartache of failure."
"There are also these meanings. ”
“My sister Taotao is amazing!”
"Ah! My scalp feels so itchy, I feel like I'm about to grow a brain."
...
Amidst the sad and desolate guzheng, Bai Xingjian continued to sing.
"The cicadas couldn't stop chirping last night"
"I was shocked to return to my dream of a thousand miles, it's been the third update"
"Get up and walk around the steps alone"
"People are quiet, the moon is bright outside the curtain"
Although it is still the same lyrics, the feeling of frustration and loneliness sung by Bai Xingjian is better than It was a bit thicker before.
The audience in front of the screen also recovered from their surprise, immersed in his singing, and experienced Yue Fei's state of mind when he wrote this poem.
“A white head is a sign of fame”
"The old pines and bamboos in the old mountains hinder the return journey"
"I want to put my thoughts on the Yao Qin"
"There are few close friends, who will listen when the string is broken?"
Yue Fei's "Little Heavy Mountain" "The upper column depicts the scenery, while the lower column expresses emotions.
The last two sentences use allusions to Yu Boya, who was good at playing the piano, and Zhong Ziqi, a close friend, to express his anger and unspeakable sorrow, and end the poem with a melancholy and depressed mood.
The audience, immersed in the singing, looked serious.
At this moment, a barrage appeared at the top of the screen:
"High energy ahead!"
Immediately, dozens of "High energy ahead" floated by.
In the doubtful eyes of the audience, a mournful sound of a horse suddenly sounded, and the emotions contained in this song finally exploded.
"In the dream, the clanking iron clothes are cutting through thorns and thorns"
"Having taken advantage of the long wind last night and drifting eastward with the waves"
"The horses rest outside the city and shake their heads and stamp their hooves"
" "Peng lifts his head to look at the cold rain"
"I just sigh at the celebration that has been completed under the whole world"
Countless viewers were shocked as if they were in a dream, staring at Bai Xingjian on the screen with wide eyes.
His C5 high-pitched voice has nowhere to vent his anger and lamentation, tearing from his lips and teeth to his heart, as if he is singing Yue Fei’s stirring soul and heart, which can be described as deafening.
At this moment, everyone was dumbfounded, dumbfounded by Bai Xingjian singing.
After a brief period of calm, the barrage became crazy and instantly filled the entire screen.
“This, this, this, this… is a C5 treble?”
"Wucao! Bai Xingjian sang to C5? What the hell is going on?"
"Ahh! This song "Last Night's Book" is simply a massacre on the stage of "Singing 2024" Ahhh! "
"Yes! You can definitely get first place by singing this song! Brother Jian, why don't you sing this song on the singing stage!" >
"I will sing this song "Last Night's Book" next week!"
"That's it! I will sing this song next week!"
"Everyone! Start scrolling!"
Soon, the screen was filled with [Singing "Last Night's Book" on "Singing 2024"! ]'s barrage.
Sitting in front of the computer and looking at the huge increase in the amount of barrages, I couldn't help but show a dumbfounded expression.
Good news: The volume of barrages has broken records.
Bad news: Most of them mentioned another fucking show.
...
"How is it possible? How is this possible? How could Bai Xingjian sing so well?"
Listening to the voice coming from the TV, Wang Yaqi felt like she was lost. .
"His high pitch is probably because he has improved his voice." Li Zhenxi added, ""Ode to the Ancients" is a program that can be used to improve your voice."
"It should be It’s...”
Wang Yaqi felt better, looked at the barrage and sneered: "You want Bai Xingjian to sing this song in "Singing 2024"? Do these fans want him to overturn?"
Li Zhenxi couldn't help laughing. He said: "This Bai Xingjian has dug a hole for himself!"
...
On the stage, Bai Xingjian's voice gradually became lower and his emotions gradually calmed down:
"I just sigh at the universal celebration"
At the end of the song, he hummed softly: "hen~~"
until the song ended.
After singing the song, the audience and the appreciation group gave Bai Xingjian warm applause.
The audience in front of the screen also wrote "666" on the barrage, as if this was the only way to vent their excitement and shock.
……
[Congratulations to the host for completing the mission. Your performance of "Last Night's Book" made 10,000 viewers feel the delicate side of Yue Fei's heart behind his iron bones! 】
[Task reward: Blind box of work*1, attribute points*6]
[Blind box of work: 4]
[Attribute points: 14]
After several pieces of information were displayed, Bai Xingjian grinned and stood up from the sofa:
"Okay, after listening to the song, I went back to the room to rest."
"Let's go, let's go."
Feng Shiqi smiled lightly, turned to Mei Jie beside him and asked : "Are you still watching?"
Mei Jie nodded: "Looking again, I think this program is quite good."
"I feel good too."
Feng Shiqi smiled, and the two of them continued to watch.
……
Xinghuo Video, Su Caitao’s live broadcast room, the barrage is also non-stop.
"Zhao Gou kneels down! Qin Hui kneels down!"
"Oh my god! This song "Last Night's Book" is so nice!"
"Is the sound source online? I really want to listen to it again!"
"Trivia, the program "Song of Ancients" can pull up the progress bar!"
"Then I'll meet you at the beginning. !”
“I want to go back and listen again!” Road:
"Bai Xingjian really gave everyone a perfect stage. He won "Singing 2024" for this stage, and he is also an existence that can compete with Fan Xia for first place!"
Live broadcast room audience The mood at this time was almost the same as Su Caitao's.
"I think so too! Brother Xingjian sang really well!"
"A very sad song! Especially the feeling of failure at the end, Bai Xingjian is What a wonderful performance!”
“Before hearing this song, Yue Fei had always been a decisive and loyal general in my eyes, but after listening to “The Book of Last Night”, I realized As a hero, Yue Fei is not always moving forward. He also has moments of loneliness, anger, and sadness. ”
"Yes! "Last Night's Book" broke my stereotype of Yue Fei."
"I feel like the [hen~~] that Brother Xing Jian hummed at the end could be the word [hate]?"
“Also, can [Peng lift up to look at the cold rain] also be understood as [Peng lift up to look down on the cold rain]?” "Tongqing" can also be understood as "sympathy""
"Damn, Bai Xingjian's words are so amazing!"
Looking at these rolling barrages, Su Caitao nodded in recognition: "I feel like what you said makes sense! It seems that there are many things worth studying in this song "Last Night's Book"."
"Hahaha , Sister Taotao, let’s make the reaction video!”
“You can also live stream the reaction!”
“Did you start the reaction for “Singing 2024” yesterday?
Su Caitao: "I'm so grateful to you!"
