Liu Qingshan and Jin Xishan came with a band, so they came nearly an hour earlier than other guests.
After all the equipment was deployed, the guests and audience arrived one after another.
Backstage, Liu Qingshan and Jin Xishan first exchanged greetings with Li Xiaotian, for whom he still respected a lot.
As for the other two guests, they were so familiar with each other that they could talk to each other casually and even put their arms around each other.
Then Zeng Zhiwei handed over an outline of the exchange content. According to him, Xiangjiang itself did not have this regulation, and it was a request made by Wang Jinghua.
Liu Qingshan was noncommittal about this: "I can participate in the recording with or without an outline. Who makes you my old brother? You will never embarrass me during the recording process!"
Eric Tsang laughed loudly: "This flattery is so flattering! But tonight we are not recording, but live broadcasting!"
Liu Qingshan patted his head and said, "I really forgot about it. I've been a little busy recently and my mind is a mess!"
He was definitely not pretending, he was really busy, but besides work, he was also busy with the strong excitement brought to him by the two children in the hospital.
But it’s hard for him to show it in front of Jin Xishan. Although she agreed to both Grace and Taylor first, it’s impossible to be as peaceful as she appears on the surface if someone takes away the feeling of being a lover. And resigned to his fate.
Therefore, it was not easy for Liu Qingshan to be caught in the middle, but he had to swallow it in his own stomach after doing it by himself. The most painful thing in his heart was Jin Xishan.
The subsequent program began with "The Rest of Life" sung by the two of them as the opening song.
Not to mention, although the variety shows in Xiangjiang and Wandao are famous for their fast-food style and simplicity, at least this established program with more than 20 years of history has made the small music stage look professional.
It's just that there were only a small audience, only about 100 people. It's not that they couldn't recruit people to watch, but the scale of this recording studio is really small.
But today we are the senior fans of Yishui’s Qingshan Bar. You must know that this is their base camp and the place of origin.
The founder is Chen Qianhui, a member of the Yang family. If you want tickets, you can't just hold them in your hand.
Moreover, this episode is Liu Qingshan’s special show, a temporarily modified live broadcast to promote his new album. Of course, his fans must be taken care of first.
Therefore, the people sitting in the audience today are basically local girls from Xiangjiang, and the TV station even allowed a certain moderator's request to live broadcast on his mobile phone.
Of course, the entire screen is not allowed. The content of certain performances is spread to music websites on the Internet, which also promotes the live broadcast ratings of the program. After all, the signal of this TV station is cable TV, and only users who have purchased a set-top box can watch it. arrive.
Due to the tight schedule for the temporary opening of this program, the TV station has not had time to sell more broadcast rights.
However, this was also marked in the contract before recording. This period is considered experimental in nature. If the results are promising, there will be similar cooperation for every new album released by the two in the future.
At that time, the TV station will make a lot of money. Of course, it will be used for commercial operations, and the two people will also receive a certain performance fee, instead of just a symbolic fee like today.
Moreover, the platform knows how to be accommodating and does not require that the duo's new album must hold its first book signing in Hong Kong, because with Liu Qingshan's current fame, even a simple talk show will still have market appeal.
"The Rest of My Life" is not a new song, but it is more likely to arouse the response of the audience. The chorus started almost from the first line and never stopped from beginning to end.
Afterwards, Eric Tsang teased the audience about this when he came on stage: "You are still young, and you have been so vocal since the first song. I'm afraid not many people will be able to speak at the end of the show!"
The main language environment here is Cantonese, and Jin Xishan cannot understand everything, so a local female singer was temporarily arranged beside her.
But this female singer was just a decoration throughout the whole process, and her only duty was to provide instant translation for Jin Xishan.
But this already made this person quite happy
Although there is no opportunity to perform, Jin Xishan can shine and is always in the main camera.
This is not the most important thing, but it is possible to establish friendship with the two guests. This is the biggest gain.
Liu Qingshan and Jin Xishan were sitting together with the three guests. The sofa was arranged in a semicircle so that each other could see each other.
The first is to give a professional interpretation of this song. Needless to say about the other two, Master Li Shinoda Li also spoke highly of it.
And he did not hide his views at all, firmly believing that since the emergence of Liu Qingshan, the pop music scene in the mainland has ushered in a qualitative change.
He also asserted that Liu Qingshan almost single-handedly took up the banner of competing with popular music in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
The styles of many works are not only original, but also have spread their influence to Europe and the United States.
So strictly speaking, he has long been qualified to be the King of Chinese Songs, but he has never made a voice in the music industry, and he has not even participated in any music awards in person.
Liu Qingshan did not dare to bear such high praise from him: "Master Li is joking. I didn't attend the music award ceremony because I was too busy, and I thought my background was too shallow, so I was not qualified to receive this award!"
Chen Yixun immediately gave him a look: "You invented the word Versailles, right? Now it is!"
Li Zhongsheng also had a look of disapproval on his face: "Why go back to the American Music Awards to receive the award if you are not qualified? Someone can tell you that you look down on our Chinese music!"
Liu Qingshan laughed and said: "If anyone dares to express this attitude in front of me, he will slap him with a hundred and eight blows, forehand and backhand! I went to that award ceremony, mostly for the sake of those under me. Artist development, the Grammys and the Grand Prix also invite me every year, but don’t I go? Do I think that my main business is movies, and singing is just a hobby. If I can’t compete with other people’s jobs, I will go less often. Is this a sin? "
"Do you really think so?" Master Li asked with a serious expression.
Liu Qingshan was still nodding, but Jin Xishan on the side had already said for him: "He really doesn't have time to go, and he really doesn't regard music as his main business. Every time he releases a new record, he is urged by several aspects. And everyone You may have discovered that the new songs he creates in variety shows will basically never have a studio version again, because he is too lazy to record them!"
Liu Qingshan then spoke: "I really don't have time, otherwise where would those program planning and film and television scripts come from? The filming tasks are only superficial. In fact, my private time will only be busier. Basically, I don't even have time to walk, and think in my head We are all thinking about our next work.”
Master Li sighed: "Then you really worked hard!"
"Effort is from other people's point of view, but for me it is due to my character." Liu Qingshan laughed a little self-deprecatingly, "I have become accustomed to using all my time to think. Besides, I am still a cultivator, so I have to set aside a certain amount of time every day. Time to meditate! Tell me, if I attend an awards ceremony, how big an impact will it have?"
"Yes, human energy is limited, and the happiest thing in the world is to live according to the lifestyle you like. After listening to you, I understand a little bit!"
"Music is really just a hobby for me, but movies are my lifelong career! As for those variety shows, they are more about making a living and supporting the thousands of people under my command. Can music bring me this? You can think that I am utilitarian, but to say that I selectively cater to which market is too one-sided!"
Eric Tsang, who was still standing on the stage, spoke: "What if music could bring you the same huge benefits as variety shows and TV dramas?"
Liu Qingshan shook his head: "My point of view is very pessimistic. With the invention of digital technology, the traditional record industry is bound to experience a disruptive decline. People obviously have the opportunity to spend one or two yuan to download online. The songs you want to listen to don’t require additional audio equipment, so how should you choose?”
"You are indeed not a pure musician. Your thoughts on the future of music are too rational!"
"So I have long said that it is just a hobby, but when I explain it this way, people will only think it is my Versailles. In fact, the reality is very cruel.
Cool, the development process of society is like this. The days of wanting to obtain huge profits through records are long gone! "
Master Li suddenly interrupted: "What is your attitude toward music? It's not just for fun, right?"
Liu Qingshan's face turned bright: "I love music very much, especially ethnic music. I have a preference! I always believe that ethnic music belongs to the world, so I am constantly trying to apply ethnic music into the form of pop music! You guys Tell me whether I love music or not?"
"I bought your new album and listened to it. I like the Chinese-style song in it the best. Would you like Mr. Liu to perform it live for us today?"
The audience immediately burst into excitement, and some people were already shouting the title of the song "Blue and White Porcelain" in unison.
Liu Qingshan also took advantage of the situation and stood up, "Even if I am just playing for fun, I have to play it well. No one is allowed to have other hobbies besides my own job, right? I am also serious about making music, and I really want to Introduce Chinese culture to the world through music!"
The guests on the stage applauded vigorously, and Master Li even slapped him so hard that it hurt.
The song "Blue and White Porcelain" actually became popular on the Internet in one day with the release of the new album. Many people in the industry even unanimously suggested that Liu Qingshan make this song the title song.
It can be seen that regardless of professional or amateur, the recognition of this song is similar.
Because the most intuitive feeling of this song is that the arrangement is rich in layers, rather than a single and repetitive brainwashing melody.
Next comes the emotion. In addition to the performance of the singer, it is also very important for the lyricist to be flattering but not vulgar. ..
The plain embryo outlines the blue and white. The brush strokes are thicker and lighter. The peony depicted on the bottle is just like your first makeup.
The scent of sandalwood comes through the window and I understand my thoughts
The charm of the lady's picture is rendered in glaze, but your beautiful smile is like a bud waiting to bloom.
A ray of your beauty spreads to places I can't go
