Chapter 225
Most of April has passed. During this half month, Tara's new album has taken China by storm, but Xia Haoyang still created a new single "Heavy Makeup" for the company's husband and wife duo.
"Heavy Makeup" is still the work of the original time and space bel canto duo Davichi. The meaning of the group's name is to light up the world with beautiful singing. Because both Yi Hongling and Xie Shujie have excellent belica quality, Xia Haoyang formed a duet between them. Hong Ling and Su Ya have performed two songs together and have already made their debut and have gained a certain popularity, but this song is the first time Hong Ling and Lao Xie have collaborated.
The song "Heavy Makeup" has a beautiful melody, strong rhythm, and high-pitched variations, which is very suitable for Hong Ling's voice characteristics. Lao Xie's falsetto soprano can be said to be a versatile weapon, and Xia Haoyang originally had high hopes for it. Unfortunately, the actual results were far from satisfactory. This song by Lingjie Group did not create any splash, and was submerged in various recent songs.
On Xinan Satellite TV's "New Song Arena", the song "Heavy Makeup" won the second place in the expert score and the fourth place in the audience vote. However, the sales of the album were held back. The duo of Hong Ling and Lao Xie His ranking in the new song contest was only seventh. Hong Ling's debut song with Su Ya won the first place in Xinan TV for two consecutive episodes.
Backstage, Tara, who won first place for "Target", just came back from the stage. Lao Xie, Hong Ling and Xia Haoyang who came to the scene gave several little girls applause.
"Thank you, Sister Hongling." Tara and the others hugged Yi Hongling happily.
"You are the senior sisters, I forgot again." Yi Hongling smiled helplessly.
"Why doesn't anyone hug me?" Xia Haoyang joked.
I habitually found a restaurant for a celebration banquet. Everyone was chatting and eating. Yi Hongling specially changed seats with Xie Shujie and said to Xia Haoyang: "Xia Haoyang, what do you think in the audience is the combination of me and Lao Xie?" Are there any problems with singing?"
Hearing that they were talking about business, everyone stopped joking and just recalled and thought about the two people's singing.
Xia Haoyang thought for a while and said, "I don't think there's anything wrong?"
Others also said that they didn't feel there was any problem. There were no mistakes in the melody, rhythm, and sound, and the two people matched well.
"Sister Hongling, in fact, the live expert score for this song by you and Brother Xie ranked second, higher than us. We are only third. It is the low sales of the album that caused you to rank lower. In terms of singing skills, it is not as good as the live ones." In fact, the singing skills of you and Brother Xie are not bad." Shao Minzhi said seriously.
"Thank you Minzhi. Lao Xie and I are pretty stable in terms of singing, but I always feel that this song doesn't sound right. In fact, Lao Xie is very accommodating to me, but music, especially harmony, It's not just a matter of simply accommodating, because this song was composed by Xia Haoyang. Or you can ask: Xia Haoyang, does the effect of Lao Xie and I singing match your feelings about this song?" Yi Hongling asked seriously .
"If you want to put it that way, it feels different." Xia Haoyang thought for a while and said.
"What's the problem?" Everyone was curious, because from their professional point of view, they felt that there was nothing wrong with the song they sang. However, Xia Haoyang is a songwriter and may have different feelings, and they also wanted to know.
"I originally designed this song for a female duet, and both of them have treble notes. I think the harmony of the two should match well. This match is not just the treble part, but every octave from the lower octave to the higher octave. The harmonies in each range are matched. In fact, I have another song, which is very nice, but I didn’t give it to you because I think the way you feel about it right now is not right for me.”
"So, simple elegance suits me." Yi Hongling turned to Zhu Suya and made an aggrieved pout expression, looking pitiful.
Zhu Suya's face was full of embarrassment. She looked at her teammates around her and could only lower her head to eat.
"Lao Xie's falsetto soprano is actually suitable for matching various sounds in the upper octave, but the feeling of your harmony is indeed a bit different from what I imagined, especially in the lower octave range."
"How about letting Juzi try it?" Lao Xie, who had been silent until now, suddenly said something shocking.
"Juzi? Yes, Juzi is also a soprano. How could I have forgotten her?" Yi Hongling's eyes suddenly shone.
Tara Liu also nodded and whispered: "We went to KTV to sing. Sister Juzi sang very well."
"Juzi was a good singer. At that time, she was the only one in our class who could stay in school as a teaching assistant. She stayed in school to teach singing. Later, our studio was short of people. Juzi knew how to manage money and taught herself financial knowledge, so we We asked her to help us manage our money and act as a cashier; later on, when we created your girl group, we didn’t understand the operation, and we had to trouble Juzi to be our manager. In the past two years, all of us have been burdened with Juzi. , In fact, Juzi is also a singer, and a very good one." Lao Xie said calmly.
"Xia Haoyang, you said there is another song, let Juzi and I try it." Yi Hongling looked at Xia Haoyang and said excitedly.
If you are an ordinary person, if you can sing with your boyfriend and the boyfriend is also good at singing, you will generally not want to change partners. However, Yi Hongling is a very dedicated and professional person in music. She separates music and life. She is very open-minded. She still loves Xie Shujie, but if she can't resonate harmoniously and can't match him comfortably, she will hope to find a more suitable partner in music.
Lao Xie knew Yi Hongling's character very well. He was also very serious about his work and music. He knew that Yi Hongling just wanted to find the most suitable person for her in terms of harmonious resonance and sing the most suitable songs. Involving others. So Lao Xie helped and said, "Fat man, let Hong Ling and Ju Zi partner up to try it out."
Xia Haoyang looked at Lao Xie and then at Yi Hongling, smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll try to go to the company tomorrow."
Early the next morning, Juzi was leisurely eating pancakes and drinking soy milk. When I first entered the company, I found Lao Xie, Yi Hongling, Tara, and Xia Haoyang chatting at the front desk. They all stared at her weird smile as soon as she appeared.
"There's nothing dirty on my face, right? Why are you all looking at me like this? By the way, Fatty, why did you come so early today? Don't you usually come after nine o'clock?" Juzi was surprised that everyone was looking at him like this, Moreover, Xia Haoyang actually arrived at the company earlier than her.
No one said anything and continued to smile weirdly.
"What's wrong with you? All of you are possessed. Why don't you say anything? Why are you all looking at me like that?" Juzi was a little frightened and didn't know what happened to everyone today.
Still no one said anything, and everyone smiled even brighter.
"I, I'm going to find Zhao Yishen, you are all crazy." Zhao Yishen got into the elevator with Juzi, but turned around and went to the bathroom and did not come with Juzi.
