After going around for a while, Jin Xishan also rested for at least half an hour, and then went on stage to perform.
Today she sang "Notebook". Although it is a sad song, the melody is really nice.
The voice she uses in this song is very thin and high, because this song has the unique charm of a female voice, and it is also a new attempt to use her voice.
The effect was obviously successful. Just a few words of singing amazed everyone, saying that this record was worth buying.
Liu Qingshan then took the stage and sang "You Are Cruel" which he had not performed before in the promotion.
This song is even more ruthless. With a bohemian attitude, he sings out the sadness and sadness that street gangsters also have. It is a lovelorn song with a strong Jianghu atmosphere.
A cup of Erguotou makes me choke to tears.
A good man will never look back.
If you leave, I won't stay
Forced love won't last long
Unable to tolerate loneliness and wander around the scales
Don’t think that underground love is airtight
This song tells a love story, where a boy is with a girl, and the girl betrays him, secretly being with another guy, and cheating on him.
However, boys love girls, so they actually feel hateful and angry, and angrily say that you are cruel.
So what the song talks about is drinking by yourself to relieve your sorrows, and by the way, venting your love and hate for girls in the lyrics.
I also have to pretend to be free and easy, let go of this relationship, and live a good life. It can be regarded as a love song of bitter love.
But in addition to the expression of emotions, there is also humor, especially the two lines in Hokkien: "No one will know what is on your mind if you don't tell me. I love you, please bear with me if you understand me." They play a wonderful role in changing the mood.
But what’s even more interesting is that this song is not only innovative, but the melody and lyrics are so great that they go beyond your imagination.
"A cup of Erguotou makes me choke to tears" is the starting line of the whole song, and it also sets the unique desolate tone of the whole song for men.
After all, a man won't shed tears easily unless he sees the green nature.
In Liu Qingshan's slightly humorous self-deprecation, in the end, "A hero never looks back" can be regarded as a clean and clear end to separation.
There is also the line "Don't think that underground love is airtight." There is no airtight wall in the world. It is the finishing line of this song with ancient philosophy!
A super touching absurd and bizarre love story, coupled with a unique and mysterious melody, which makes people's skin crawl.
His pretentious and free-spirited performance style not only brought a particularly shocking visual experience to the audience, but also caused waves of heartache to rise and fall with the singer, and the sense of involvement suddenly appeared.
And this performance will definitely subvert everyone's image of Liu Qingshan's rough and domineering music stage, and let everyone feel the contradictory feeling that he exudes that is slightly evil, lonely, stubborn and heart-wrenching!
The rap part was partially modified by Liu Qingshan, replacing the three-character name of the original singer with the English word "single", so that it can be regarded as a work that truly belongs to him.
When the audience listened to this song, they almost all had dull expressions and stayed frozen for a long time, because this song contains too many stylistic elements and is too unique.
It wasn't until the previous verse and chorus was completed and the rap part transitioned that people's emotions became active again, but the screams were far louder than the cheers.
After Liu Qingshan finished singing, the real cheers erupted. He specially asked: "Does it sound good?"
"It sounds great!"
The scene of tens of thousands of people shouting in unison was quite shocking. Although the big screen could not display the stage image well under the dazzling sunlight, there was still no problem with the sound transmission.
Moreover, Liu Qingshan's singing effect has never been much different from the studio version, so it is not unexpected that it attracted such enthusiastic responses.
This is not just a society that values looks. His works have made many young girls become nymphomaniacs, as if they have never seen such a fierce man.

An enchanted sense of excitement permeates every corner. A song with a variety of styles, I believe it will also make people who had not planned to buy the album a firm desire to buy it.
You must know that this is Hong Kong. Various reasons have led to the fact that no matter how excellent the Chinese-language songs are, they will never achieve great market results here.
But Liu Qingshan is obviously an exception, which can be seen in today's scene.
The subsequent on-site sales further confirmed this situation. Not even halfway through the first release day, major audio and video stores in Xiangjiang have already given out signals that supply is in short supply.
As night fell, more and more calls came about that the album was sold out, making the Warner Hong Kong branch extremely anxious.
Although they had prepared sufficient supplies in advance, they still could not meet the terrifying sales record of selling one million copies in one or two hours.
At the same time, similar news came one after another from the mainland, and the Bay Island area was also faced with the problem of difficulty in replenishing supplies.
The overall shipment volume is sufficient, but there are problems with the allocation of supply between various places. Because Warner seriously underestimated sales outside the mainland, and the mainland is too focused on major and medium-sized cities, the sales department on this day has to accept The call came in softly.
But all this was not something Liu Qingshan needed to consider. As agreed, he came to Zeng Zhiwei's TV station and participated in the recording of a live variety show.
This program is called "Golden Songs". Since its launch on October 10, 1981, it has become the longest-running Chinese music television program in the world.
In order to cooperate with Liu Qingshan's album promotion, it was even broadcast one day in advance, and for the first time, it was broadcast live.
The rankings that appear in this program actually have a great influence on the music in Xiangjiang. Even the establishment of a special "Golden Song Chart" music award originated from the rankings of this program.
However, from the program revision three years ago, the format changed to a mini concert (inincert) format, and professional singers began to be invited to serve as hosts.
Liu Qingshan had received this invitation before and learned that the program would make major changes because of him, but he still refused to agree.
The reason is that a certain female singer's views are inconsistent with mainland policies, and Wang Jinghua's only request is to replace this person.
This incident not only caused a big discussion within the TV station, but also had a great impact on the entire Hong Kong entertainment industry.
And its topicality spread extremely quickly, spreading throughout the entire artist world almost overnight.
You must know that a person who is deemed inconvenient to cooperate by Liu Qingshan will only have one end, and that is that he will have no hope of stardom from now on.
Even if someone will use her in a short period of time, as time goes by, after experiencing all kinds of minor troubles, both overt and covert, that person is destined to wither away.
Na Ying is the most direct example. This person was once the queen of the mainland music scene. She was once so powerful that she could cover the sky with one hand.
But so what, now the only few popular music programs in the mainland TV market are from Xueyu Entertainment, so this person's gradual fading has become a reality.
There is no way around it. Liu Qingshan has the natural advantages of program planning and scripting. If you want to cooperate with him, you have to follow his attitude. Otherwise, sorry, there are many platforms willing to cooperate with him.
There are actually very few of this kind in Hong Kong. Although there is very little inflow of his program planning, his movie scripts have always been in short supply.
People have extended their advantages in scripts to Hollywood. How can a small Hong Kong resist it?
Even the re-emergence of the Kung Fu film market in Hong Kong is under his planning. If he clearly expresses his dislike for someone, it obviously does not matter whether the film company will go all out to protect a certain artist or choose to continue to cooperate with him. There is no doubt.
Moreover, the female singer is not popular enough to support her voice, not to mention that Liu Qingshan's dissatisfaction with her is indeed true.
So the TV station quickly made a decision and fired the female singer who had been hosting for nearly three years without mercy.
This is why Liu Qingshan was invited. In fact, this has little direct relationship with his strong style, because it is the agent who first examines the content of the program, and then his own attitude.
But these are all trivial matters to him. From a small perspective, neither he nor Jin Xishan has a strong need for record promotion, so it doesn't matter whether he participates in this program or not.
From a general perspective, Liu Qingshan has always been afraid to avoid dealing with official matters, and it is absolutely impossible to attract negative comments for himself.
Therefore, he has always avoided any problematic artists or programs. The reason why he was able to agree to consider this program is that he has a good personal relationship with the inviter Zeng Zhiwei.
In other words, if it weren't for the Eagles' concert, he might not even come to promote it in Hong Kong. Everyone in the industry is well aware of this situation.
Just because the market in Xiangjiang is too small, and any of his works have the qualifications to be exported to Europe and the United States, he will never take the risk to enter this muddy water.
This program has a theme every week and invites relevant singers, composers, DJs, etc. to talk about music. The format is mainly talk.
Or invite big-name singers of different styles to perform together in a certain session, cover each other's hits or classic songs, and present different types of music to everyone.
Or the singers may perform it live and be the first to introduce their new works to everyone.
The episode that Liu Qingshan participated in was a combination of the three. Not only did he have to appear to sing new songs, but a big-name singer also served as a guest in this episode.
There were three guests, one of whom was Chen Yixun, a singer under Snowland Records and the current king of Chinese singing.
The other one is Li Zhongsheng, the godfather of pop music from Baodaowan Island.
The third person is Lai Xiaotian, a famous composer in Hong Kong and the "godfather" musician of the Hong Kong Philharmonic in the 1980s.
Everyone knows the first two, but the last one is even more remarkable. Zhang Guorong and Mui Yanfang in the "Two Kings and One Queen" era of the Hong Kong Philharmonic in the 1980s were the "Thousand Mile Horses" he unearthed.
He is also the creator of classic Cantonese songs such as "Drunken Life", "Love Is Not a Bird", "Dancing with the Dragon", "The Love of a Lifetime", "Westward Journey", "Celestial Silkworm Change" and so on.
He is 61 years old this year. He is considered to be of the same generation as the Eagles, and his works and abilities can be regarded as palace-level.
