Perfect Superstar Chapter 174

Chapter 174 – Cannot Be Doubted

Lu Chen didn’t know Lu Zhengzhi and thought that the other party was one of the top leaders in Beijing Satellite TV.

Therefore, when Lu Zhengzhi rejected his new songs, Lu Chen couldn’t be completely indifferent.

Or surprised, or ashamed, or indignant…

But since standing on the stage, if he wanted to be a real superstar, he must learn to face any doubt, criticism and even slander – how can you see the rainbow without going through the wind and rain?

So, he didn’t get upset and argue, which not only won’t help, but will only leave a bad impression.

But Lu Chen would never silently endure the injustice imposed by others. He resolutely proposed to sing another song.

Didn’t you say it wasn’t enough to be a theme song? Then I’ll give you a real theme song!

There are countless pearls in his treasure trove of memories, and picking one at random is enough to turn the situation around.

And Lu Chen was lucky.

First of all, he has wonderful and excellent works. Secondly, Lu Zhengzhi is not one of the leaders of Beijing Satellite TV.

Director Lu is from CCTV.

There was no doubt that Lu Zhengzhi has the highest position among all the people present, but he can’t be the master of Beijing TV either. (TN: He doesn’t have the ability to decide on the affairs of Beijing TV)

With the support of Gao Zhixue and Gu Rui, Lu Chen won a valuable opportunity.

He didn’t hesitate to show his strongest strength.

The real theme style of “I Love you China” is absolutely a classic in the dream world. Its original singing style is bel canto, but as long as one is talented enough, one can change the style to pop singing.

Lu Chen’s interpretation of this song was a perfect combination of bel canto and pop.

“A lark flies across the blue sky. I love you, China. ~”

In the first line of lyrics, Lu Chen lit up his singing voice and showed off his talent in treble to everyone in the scene in an almost ostentatious way, which instantly shocked the whole audience.

Like the cry of an azure luan that sounded for nine days, he shattered all doubts with his singing. (TN: Azure Luan is a mythical bird)

Many of the TV staff sitting in the audience straightened their backs, and some even had tingling in their scalp. They couldn’t help holding their breath and listen attentively to Lu Chen’s singing.

Their intuition told them that Lu Chen was serious this time, and what he brought out again must be a masterpiece!

Lu Chen didn’t disappoint.

His timbre is mellow, bright, clear and clean. The note and rhyme of each character is well controlled and majestic. It was full of tenderness and affection, and very precise.

Although it was his first time to sing it, and although there was no accompaniment, he felt as if he has sung it thousands of times!

The first few sentences were still very traditional. Every sentence was well-formed, and the style of a theme song was very distinctive.

Then Lu Chen gradually added a little rock and roll flavor, and the rhythm became slightly faster, laying a wonderful groundwork for the next section.

To the phrase “I love your green pine temperament”, Lu Chen’s voice changed, no longer mellow and bright. The rock and roll mood overflowed with passion along with the singing, making people’s blood in their body boil unconsciously!

The several lines of “I love you” was even more energetic and soul-stirring. At this point, he suddenly uses a falsetto voice. After being bold and heroic, he can end so gently. In terms of singing skills alone, it was really amazing.

And this was just the beginning.

“……

I love you China, I love you China.

I will dedicate the most beautiful song to you, my mother, my motherland.

I love you China, I love you China,

I love your blue waves rolling across the South Sea, I love your white snowflakes flying over the North Land ~.

I love your boundless forests, I love your towering mountains,

I love your vivacious small rivers, that flow through my dreamland with clear sparkles.

I love you China, I love you China.

I will dedicate my wonderful youth to you, my mother, my motherland.

Ah… Ah…

I will dedicate my wonderful youth to you, my mother, my motherland! “

This song “I Love you China” adopts the traditional Chinese word law “Fubixing” writing method. It can be described as one chant, three sighs and concise words. Using overlapping sentences, parallelism and other techniques, the country’s spring seedlings and autumn fruits, forests, mountains and rivers, rural crops and so on have been visually described and exquisitely portrayed, expressing the passion and sincere patriotic feelings towards the motherland. (TN: Word Law (词律) – strict tonal pattern and rhyme scheme)

The song consists of three parts. The first part is the introduction of the nature of the passage. The rhythm is relatively free, the atmosphere is broad, the tone is bright and high-pitched, and the melody is rhythmical, leading people to the artistic realm of larks overlooking the earth and singing.

The second part is the main part of the song. The rhythm is relatively gentle, the melody rises layer by layer. It is euphemistic, deep and internal, spreading a magnificent picture of the great rivers and mountains of the motherland, constantly deepening the theme of the work.

The third part is the ending passage, which brings the whole song to the climax through the expression of the line “ah”.

And the final sentence, “my mother, my motherland”, ends in a high note, which is full of fervent patriotic feeling, making people feel drunk, like they have drunk a strong pure wine.

Lu Chen sang it all in one go, and he only sang it once!

When the last sentence of “my motherland” was finished, Lu Chen’s face was already flushed, which was not only the external manifestation of the extreme use of breath, but also the manifestation of his inner passion.

This song, in terms of singing skills alone, has completely reached his previous peak.

Even Lu Chen felt that it was a little inconceivable that he could sing so well, and all the negative emotions held in his heart were thoroughly vented through singing, and he seemed to have put down a heavy burden.

He felt refreshed and relaxed!

No matter whether he could sing solo at the National Day Party of Beijing Satellite TV, Lu Chen had no regrets.

This is the pride of being a singer!

The T1 Studio hall of Beijing Satellite TV was quiet, as if it had been cast with a silent spell.

Clap! Clap! Clap!

It wasn’t clear who clapped their hands first, but this instantly led everyone to follow suit.

The television staff who acted as spectators stood up, one after another, row after row.

They weren’t loud or boisterous, they just applauded. They were disorderly at first, but they soon became very orderly.

The appraisers sitting at the front applauded as well.

The most excited one was Gu Rui. He stared at Lu Chen with shining eyes, as if he had discovered a rare treasure.

The fat on Lu Zhengzhi’s face became taut. He also raised his hand and applauded.

Regardless of whether Director Lu admitted it or not, Lu Chen’s singing was extremely wonderful.

Fully qualified to stand on the big stage of Beijing Satellite TV!

And his second song, “I Love you China”, is 100% a theme song, and it’s also a fine work in the same category.

If Lu Zhengzhi wanted to deny this point, he would really become a clown.

So, no matter whether he was willing or not, he had to give Lu Chen an applause.

Even if this applause seemed like he was slapping his own face.

The warm applause lasted for more than half a minute. If Gao Zhixue hadn’t stood up and turned around to signaled everyone to calm down, perhaps it would have continued.

This was the first time this kind of situation appeared in the afternoon rehearsal. Even when Chen Fei’er appeared on the stage before, she hadn’t won such enthusiastic applause from the TV station staff.

Whether they understood music or not, they all thought that this was a really good song, a good theme song!

Gao Zhixue sat down again and asked Lu Zhengzhi with a smile: “Director Lu, do you think Lu Chen’s song is OK?”

There was a hint of playfulness in his eyes.

Although Lu Zhengzhi couldn’t see it, he could understand the other party’s thoughts. It would be a lie if he said that he wasn’t ashamed in his heart.

But on the surface, he smiled as if nothing had happened: “mm-hmm, this song is very good. On CCTV!”

On CCTV!

Gao Zhixue’s pupil suddenly shrank.

He has forgotten that CCTV also has a National Day Party. Its scale and lineup are much stronger than those of Beijing TV.

Lu Chen’s song “I Love You China”, although the lyrics are simple, it is full of soul-stirring passion and express the boundless affection for the motherland incisively and vividly, making people experience a strong emotion that gushed out.

Such a song can become a classic. Moreover, a classic theme song!

As the director of the editorial office of Beijing Television and an expert in music, Gao Zhixue deeply understood how difficult it is to produce a classic theme song now. This song “I Love you China” will undoubtedly become a highlight at the National Day Party.

How could CCTV steal it?

Gao Zhixue wanted to refuse.

But Gao Zhixue was, after all, not an ordinary person, and he swallowed back the words that was on the tips of his tongue.

What time is it now? The rehearsal of CCTV’s National Day Party was much earlier than Beijing TV. It was basically impossible for Lu Zhengzhi to push Lu Chen onto the stage of CCTV.

The people watching the Beijing TV Party may be the people in the entertainment circle in Beijing. But the people watching the CCTV stage are all the people in the country!

Lu Zhengzhi was just teasing them.

Old fox!

Gao Zhixue scolded secretly in his heart, but said with a smile: “If Director Lu is willing to recommend, I will be very happy that Lu Chen can appear at the CCTV National Day Party!”

Lu Chen is the champion of “Singing China” and the rising star of Beijing Satellite TV!

If Lu Zhengzhi really asked for it, he would really like to strongly recommend it.

Lu Zhengzhi said regretfully, “It’s a pity that the program of our station’s evening party is full…”

Of course, he didn’t really want Lu Chen. He was just saying this to save face.

While the two old foxes were fighting and scheming against each other, Gu Rui next to them couldn’t sit still!

Without asking Gao Zhixue for instructions, he said to the microphone, “Lu Chen, this work of yours is more wonderful, so use this song. Can you bring a complete accompaniment to the rehearsal on the 25th?”

Lu Chen said confidently, “No problem!”

Of course, there was no problem. Even if he is busy working day and night, he will ask someone to make the arrangements and accompaniment.

Gu Rui said with a smile, “That’s fine.”

His EQ wasn’t too low after all, so he asked Gao Zhixue, “Director Gao, what do you think?”

Gao Zhixue nodded with a smile: “Yes, then it’s settled.”

As a result, Lu Chen’s “I Love you China” was officially confirmed as one of the solo programs of Beijing TV’s National Day Party!

“Comrade Little Lu, wait a minute…”

Just as Lu Chen was preparing to go off the stage, Lu Zhengzhi suddenly stopped him.

Lu Chen was stupefied.

He just heard the director of the CCTV Art Program Department asked with a smile: “Do you want your work to appear on CCTV’s National Day Party?”
