  Chapter 86 Li Xiao: Chuci wins

  The January Spring Festival file in the music industry, also known as the "Battle of the Gods" in the industry, finally ended in the early morning of February when the charts were locked.

"it is finally over."

   "This year's Clash of Gods is also very exciting, but the end of Clash of Gods also means the beginning of a new season. Has the ranking changed now?"

"not yet."

   "The update of the season leaderboard is usually delayed by a few minutes."

   "The new songs of the three first-line have been released, and now they are all recommended and hung up. They are all ancient styles."

"listen and see."

   "The quality of Shinhwa is not bad!"

   "I'm listening to Nathan's song, and I can't say enough about the quality!"

   "Listen to this song produced by Tianguang, and feel that the quality has caught up with "Broken Bridge and Remnant Snow"!"

   "It's a little bit short."

   "Chu Ci's new song has also been released?"

   "It's posted, my software has followed Chu Ci, and the name of his new song is "Luzhou Moon"?"

   "Luzhou month?"

   "Suddenly thought of Baidi's "Moonlight"."

   "It's interesting, Chuci's new song seems to be written by moonlight."

   "Isn't it plagiarism?"

   "Hahahaha, it's not impossible, it should just happen to collide with elements. After all, many ancient songs will use moonlight as the theme."

In conversation.

  Many people started listening to songs.

  At this time, Zhou Hanjin, the king of Tianguang song, was cuddling with his girlfriend Li Xiao on the bed, and the sheets were very messy at the moment.

Sudden.

   Li Xiao's cell phone rang.

  She opened the phone page and looked, and it was the software prompt [Chuci you are following has released a new song! 】

   "Are you still following him?"

   Zhou Hanjin pouted lightly.

  Li Xiao nodded, followed the prompt and clicked in, and immediately saw the message of Chu Ci's new song.

   Lyricist: Songs of Chu

  Composer: Songs of Chu

   Arranger: Songs of Chu

  Song name: Luzhou Moon

   Sure enough, it is a standard song for a singer-songwriter. The corners of Li Xiao's mouth slightly curled up, and then she clicked play. Regardless of the list competition in December, she still likes this song of Chu very much.

   Zhou Han didn't speak at all.

  Ears perked up.

  The prelude to the song sounded.

Zhou Hanjin muttered: "Guzheng, viola, electronic piano, piano, and erhu guitar seem to be paired with a drum set. The arrangement is a little better than "Broken Bridge and Remnant Snow", but this guy's singing skills are actually quite amateur, but the songs are simple, so many people I just can't hear it."

   "Listen to the song."

  Li Xiao interrupted Zhou Hanjin.

  Zhou Hanjin curled his lips, obviously not too interested in Chu Ci, at this time a singing voice sounded in his ear:

   "When I was a child, I chiseled the wall and stole someone's light

  Su past is not combed a bitter ten years cold window

  Now I am leisurely reading under the lights

  Half a lifetime of false fame is nothing but falsehood..."

  Blue Star also has a story similar to cutting a wall to borrow light. Zhou Han can understand it, but he is a little confused about the second sentence, but he can even guess it. Maybe it’s because he studies hard and is too busy to comb his hair?

  Look at the following words...

  Damn it, the writing is so awesome!

  No matter how cold Zhou Hanjin is about Chu Ci, he has to admit that this guy is really good at writing lyrics. He doesn't have the rhetoric of most ancient songs, but he is telling stories.

   "March all the way hazy, warblers and grass grow

  I saw my hometown in the catkins flying

   I don’t know if you are still in Luyang

  A wisp of blue hair will be treasured for a lifetime..."

  I couldn't find any black spots in the lyrics, so Zhou Han could only lie in vain, so he tried to find fault with the melody, but after listening to these two verses, there was nothing wrong with it!

   Even…

   Seems better than "Broken Bridge and Remnant Snow"?

   Just when Zhou Hanjin was thinking this way, Li Xiao said softly: "This song should be written later than his last one, and the melody creation is more mature."

   It's not that singers can't write songs.

   It's just not as good as those big-name composers.

But no matter how much a post-singer like Li Xiao can't write songs, his appreciation of composition is beyond doubt. Of course, Zhou Hanjin is the same. He agrees with every word of his girlfriend, although he is still unhappy. thing.

   "The lovers on the bridge go in and out

  Hongyao by the bridge laments that the night is too long

  The moon is shaking, people are wandering

  There is a song of Lishang coming from Upeng..."

  This is the last stanza of the verse. The previous narration begins to explode emotionally, and the chorus is drawn out from this, and the melody becomes more and more ear-catching:

   "Luzhou moonlight shines on my heart

  Under the moon, you are no longer what you used to be

  Too many hurts to tell my heart

  Sigh, it was only common at that time..."

  When listening to "Broken Bridge and Remnant Snow" before, Li Xiao's biggest impression was that this song of Chu is very good at using lyrics and sound to describe the sense of the picture.

   This time.

The pictures depicted by Chu Ci are more specific. The accomplished scholar returns to his hometown, and under the moonlight, he sees the heroine of "Qingsi's Lifetime Treasure", but she seems to have changed after many years, or maybe she has changed. It's full of thousands of words, but at this moment, I suddenly don't know where to start.

   Li Xiao understood it this way.

  However, the next lyric breaks Li Xiao’s understanding, or the artistic conception is more hazy, and the imagination space becomes vast:

  "Luzhou Moonlight Pear Blossom Rain Cool

  Who is by your side now?

  The moonlight in my hometown is deeply burned in my heart

  But I can’t shed any tears back then…”

   It turned out that the reunion of the two was just the imagination of the singer!

  With the passage of time, I have gradually blurred your appearance, so what if we really met?

  Times have changed.

  Maybe you are married, and I have a partner by my side. What I can regret is the memory, but what I can hear is the death. The connection between seeing and seeing is very subtle. It compares reality and falsehood, and vividly shows the hesitation of people's hearts.

   At this time.

  Zhou Hanjin said suddenly: "The drum beat is so tight."

   Li Xiao couldn't laugh or cry. He was deeply moved by the content of the song, but Zhou Hanjin was concerned about the instruments used in the arrangement.

   What Gufeng Song listens to is sentiment.

   But this stinky man doesn't understand sentimentality.

   "Don't you think this lyrics is better than "Broken Bridge and Remnant Snow", or you didn't find a wonderful design in this lyrics?"

   Li Xiao asked.

Zhou Hanjin nodded: "It feels like an upgraded version of "Broken Bridge and Remnant Snow". Both the arrangement and the lyrics have been upgraded. For example, I just said that the drum beats are very dense. Make the sense of rhythm stronger..."

   "I said the lyrics!"

   "The lyrics are quite good, [sighing that it was common at the time], this sentence is quite flavorful."

   "You are still saved."

  This sentence does have a deep artistic conception, almost poetic language, or this song is full of poetic flavor.

   It's just that neither of them knew it.

  This sentence is a quote from Nalan Xingde's "Huanxisha·Who reads the west wind and cools alone" "Being drunk is not startled by spring and sleeps heavily, gambling books disappears and splashes the fragrance of tea. At that time, it was only ordinary."

  This is poetry.

  It's a pity that there is no Nalan Xingde in this world.

   While the song was still going on, Zhou Hanjin didn’t talk nonsense this time, but just felt it silently, with some inexplicable throbbing in his heart, using a very vulgar sigh:

  Oops, it's a heart-wrenching feeling.

   This feeling of heartbeat made Zhou Hanjin feel a little bit of myocardial infarction.

  Because he suddenly thought, if he came across this song on the season chart...

  Can you win?

   Zhou Hanjin was a little unsure.

   What annoys him the most is precisely this uncertainty.

  Zhou Hanjin suddenly remembered that his girlfriend said that there was a wonderful design in the lyrics, but he couldn’t find it after searching for a long time, “Where is the wonderful design?”

"end."

  Li Xiao's eyes were dim.

  Zhou Hanjin was even more puzzled: "The ending?"

  At this time, the song was over, and Li Xiao paused and said: "Light, window, fragrance, delusion, long, township, yang, Tibet, double..."

  The end of each lyric?

   Doesn’t it just rhyme?

  Zhou Hanjin was thinking like this, but at the next moment he suddenly exclaimed: "This guy pronounces ang at the end of every line of his lyrics!"

  This design is really exquisite!

  Chu Ci is a patient with obsessive-compulsive disorder!

   It’s no wonder that the rhyme feet feel so comfortable. It turns out there is another reason for this!

This lyrics is amazing. The pronunciation of the whole song ends with ang, but there is no feeling of rote. Everything seems to be natural. It not only tells the story in the song well, but also uses the skill of writing lyrics, And the cultural background of the lyricist is revealed!

   "Now believe it."

Li Xiao said with emotion: "This is a very scary newcomer, not necessarily worse than your Baidi, just like you said that the drums are very dense, but the use of the piano is also just right, blending in this modern atmosphere, combined with classical instruments. Adding an ancient charm, the two complement each other and each has its place."

  Professionals have many levels of audio analysis.

Zhou Hanjin said thoughtfully: "No wonder the rhythm of this song is adagio, mainly to complement the lyrics. The drum beats are like the sentence reading in poetry recitation, which makes people feel a sense of cadence. He not only Writing songs is also writing poetry.”

  He hadn't thought of this link before.

   It was only after my girlfriend reminded me that I woke up.

  Of course, if it was "Chu Ci" listening to the two of them chatting here, he would probably look confused, and finally say something awesome...

"Another point!"

   After acknowledging that this guy does have some skills, Zhou Hanjin also calmed down: "Do you feel that Chu Ci's singing skills seem to have improved a little bit compared to before?"

"A little."

  Li Xiao nodded, "This song is actually more difficult than "Broken Bridge and Remnant Snow". The main difficulty is that the key is higher. He sang it in falsetto, and the timbre is maintained very well. This is indeed an improvement."

   "But still weak."

  Zhou Han laughed and said, "It's just a little improvement compared to "Broken Bridge and Remnant Snow". Maybe this guy also knows that he can't sing well, so he specially wrote this kind of ancient-style songs that are not difficult to sing.

   "It doesn't matter."

  Li Xiao took a deep breath, "Even you and I think this song is so good, will there be anyone on the season list who will be Chu Ci's opponent?"

   Zhou Han fell silent.

  There is no song king and queen in this month's season list, only three first-line singers, from Tianguang, Shinhwa, and Nathan.

   Those three people are really real, there is a high probability that they will not be able to stop Chu Ci...

   "Listen and watch."

  I always have to listen to the new songs of those three before making a judgment.

  Li Xiao nodded, and then together with Zhou Hanjin, he listened to the works of the three first-line singers in turn.

   Finish listening.

  Li Xiao said without hesitation: "Chuci won."

  Zhou Hanjin didn't speak, but acquiesced in his girlfriend's judgment. This is a new song whose overall quality is better than "Broken Bridge and Remnant Snow", and there is basically no reason to lose.

Depend on!

   What this guy took is really Baidi's script?

   Push a friend's book "Into Unscience", a scholarly essay that changes the history of science and technology. If you are interested, you can read it
