Chapter 69: Another Song
Hou Jun's head was huge.
"Small Song Gathering" is not a big hit show, but everyone has been doing this show for several seasons. Being able to support it for so long is out of love for this show.
However, Hou Jun has really never encountered a singer who was dissatisfied with the rehearsal and had to redo it nearly ten times.
Chen Ziliang is one of the most popular singers at the moment and also the biggest-name singer in this episode of "Small Song Gathering."
Precisely because of this, although each singer rehearses at most three times, Chen Ziliang has rehearsed to the tenth time, and the production team didn't refuse.
It's just that after the singer finishes rehearsing, they still have a lot of preparatory work. Following this trend, they won't be able to finish work until two or three in the morning tonight.
It wasn't until 10:30 PM that Chen Ziliang tried until he was satisfied and ended the rehearsal.
Hou Jun asked: "Who else is left to rehearse?"
"Lu Yan He, he arrived at nine and has been waiting." Wang Lu raised her hand immediately and said.
Hou Jun: "Him, hurry up and call him over, sigh."
For Lu Yan He, Hou Jun, a director who has been mixing in music variety shows, has no interest.
If it weren't for the fact that Lu Yan He just made the news and the positive energy halo is what the show needs, he wouldn't have been urgently squeezed in to temporarily join tomorrow's show recording.
The person who made this decision was not Hou Jun; he was just the executor who received the task.
And for young idol singers like Lu Yan He, Hou Jun didn't have much respect deep down.
The staff on site all looked exhausted.
This is also the norm in this industry.
"Why on earth was such an idol singer temporarily added?"
"Have you heard him sing? It's like a mosquito humming."
"Brother Wang will probably curse his mother when fixing the audio later."
When Lu Yan He appeared in the studio with Wang Lu, these discussions disappeared.
His school uniform attracted everyone's side glances.
Wearing a school uniform to rehearse?
Hou Jun arranged for someone to take him to do the entrance positioning first, and he took the opportunity to go to the bathroom.
When he came back, Lu Yan He was testing the microphone.
Hou Jun looked at the boy on the stage and asked: "Can you start directly?"
Lu Yan He nodded.
His image is indeed fresh and clean, without any makeup, looking like a very ordinary handsome high school student.
This image gave Hou Jun a bit more favor towards him.
Hou Jun signaled for all departments to prepare.
The accompaniment started.
Lu Yan He stood on the stage, feeling a bit nervous for a moment.
Mom, it's the first time singing in front of so many people.
Under the stage, those people's faces were expressionless, looking at him as if looking at a piece of furniture.
All are traces of social animals ravaged by work.
Lu Yan He suddenly got distracted and missed the part to enter the song.
Everyone's expressions changed immediately.
He only then realized, took a deep breath, bared his teeth, and immediately followed up from the middle.
"... thought it was an unreachable dream, didn't dare to put everything down to rush."
As soon as Lu Yan He opened his mouth, everyone who was expressionless was stunned, looked up in surprise, and looked at Lu Yan He on the stage.
The moment he opened his mouth just now, the youthful vigor and sense of youth came rushing towards them.
Before Lu Yan He came, Hou Jun had searched for videos of Lu Yan He singing on the internet. To be honest, the pitch and such were all okay, not off-key, and the vocal range was passable, but he sang too ordinarily, without any style, and without any personality.
Hou Jun didn't have any expectations for Lu Yan He's singing at all.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Lu Yan He opened his mouth, he gave a feeling completely different from the video.
Lu Yan He is eighteen years old this year, and he is at the most suitable age to sing "Dream-Chasing Youth."
This song is youthful, passionate, and vigorous. Of course, creating this song was for a group of fifteen or sixteen-year-old teenagers to sing.
Lu Yan He sang casually and easily, instead giving people a sense of fearlessness of a teenager who doesn't know sorrow.
Especially when it came to the high-pitched part, Lu Yan He actually reached that scale easily, without any effort, unlike many young idol singers who need to pull their throats to howl.
Hou Jun looked at the teenager on the stage in surprise.
Compared to the person he saw in the video, the progress is too big.
In the past two years, Lu Yan He has almost disappeared. Hou Jun thought that Lu Yan He's already mediocre skills had long since degenerated.
Unexpectedly, he really had a bit of a professional singer's meaning.
The most critical thing is that he sings this song like a new actor chosen by a director to play a role that is a true portrayal, having a youthful vigor that professional singers cannot replace.
After singing the song.
Lu Yan He said: "Sorry, I was distracted just now."
Hou Jun applauded and said: "It's okay, you sang very well. Did you go for advanced studies in the past two years? The progress is great."
Lu Yan He smiled happily and shook his head, "No advanced studies, just pondered it myself."
His smile was bright.
Hou Jun said: "When you sing this song, there will be backup dancers behind you. Originally, I wanted you to show off your dance skills with them, but because your preparation time is too short, you won't add the dancing part."
"That's great." Lu Yan He really couldn't learn another dance in one day.
"Do you want to do it again?" Hou Jun asked.
"Director, I also sent an audio just now, please give the audio to the audio teacher, can I try this song?" Lu Yan He asked.
Hou Jun was stunned, "Hmm? What audio?"
"It's a song I wrote myself." Lu Yan He said, "I know 'Dream-Chasing Youth' is a song that was already decided before, but, see if you want to listen to this song I wrote myself? If you think it's OK, I want to try this one I wrote myself."
Hou Jun showed hesitation upon hearing this.
To be honest, Lu Yan He's performance today greatly exceeded Hou Jun's expectations. Especially after he heard Lu Yan He sing "Dream-Chasing Youth" just now, he was already very satisfied. He could foresee that with Lu Yan He's state of singing "Dream-Chasing Youth," properly operating a topic similar to #Lu Yan He sings Dream-Chasing Youth again after three years#, the heat on the internet should not be small.
"Okay, sing it." Hou Jun said, "However, can you write songs yourself?"
Lu Yan He said: "Just wrote it casually, if you think it's not good, then forget it, just sing 'Dream-Chasing Youth'."
That's what he said, but Lu Yan He has confidence in this song he opened his golden finger for. After all, that was the must-play song for the graduation season that eventually became popular in the streets and alleys.
The accompaniment started.
A sense of freshness came rushing towards them.
If the previous "Dream-Chasing Youth" was youthful and passionate, now, as soon as the accompaniment of this song started, it was a campus style with a faint sense of sadness.
In the original dimension, the author and singer of this song was a 17-year-old girl, who was only 15 when she created this song. However, this song sings not only about a girl's heart but also about the reluctance to part with the three years of junior high school, expressing a commemoration of youthful years.
A song, different singers will bring different styles.
As soon as Lu Yan He opened his mouth, a lower voice than "Dream-Chasing Youth," which was originally a sunny and free-spirited vocal texture, blended into the slightly melancholic and reluctant style of this song, making the people on the scene look up in surprise again. ===== CHAPTER 70 =====
