China Entertainment 1997.

Chapter 520 Cao Banbi in the Chinese music scene becomes 11% on Tuesday, and the remaining [-]% is called Qunxing (Supplement [-])

When Tian Wuxuan and Xiaoxiaomei came to the Taimiao, it was not Tian's mother who came to deliver the tickets.

Tian's mother knew that her son's face was tender, and she was afraid of affecting his dating status, but also felt that her identity was too sensitive and would make other girls feel uncomfortable, so she didn't show up.

Anyway, she knew where the ticket was, so she would take a sneak peek and know what the girl looked like.

Due to the nature of the party, the size of the audience is not large, only 800 people, and there is no strict time limit. After the afternoon, the ticket check will be entered.

Tian Wuxuan and the others entered the Taimiao. The auditorium was the square in front of the front hall of the Taimiao, and the stage was on the platform of the Taimiao.

As a native of the capital, Tian Wuxuan has been to the Taimiao several times, but Xiao Xiaomei is a foreigner. Although she has been to the Forbidden City, she has not visited the Taimiao.

Tian Wuxuan gave a brief introduction. He actually knew half of it, but the elementary school girl didn't know much about history, so she was fooled by him.

If Tian Wuxuan had a system page, he would see that the favorability of the elementary school girl today is +1+1+1...

In the auditorium, waiting for the gala in anticipation for a while, the backstage of the gala is also unsurprisingly star-studded.

Although many bigwigs from the "Welcome to the Capital" MV did not appear today, such as the elder sister from the hometown, the third of the four heavenly kings, Wang Fei, Dayao, Liu Feiren, etc., were unable to be present due to various reasons.

This is actually quite normal. Several scenes in the previous MV were synthesized with green screen. If it is really inconvenient abroad, you can also record and send it on the spot.

Otherwise, even for Cao Xuan, it would be difficult to get together the Chinese top lineup that was unprecedented before, and it would be difficult for the newcomer to come later.

Because there are other ways to help, and it is a comprehensive promotional nature, they recorded the MV for the sake of Cao Xuan and the Beijing Olympic Committee.

But there is no need to come to the live party. Fortunately, there are other stars on top. Although it is worse than the original version, it is still very good.

Backstage, the state of many celebrities is still very relaxed, except for a few newcomers or entertainers who are more of an actor, most of them are masters who have seen and seen.

Basically, most of them have held concerts with more than 10 people, and there are many who have attended the Spring Festival Gala. Even Cao Xuan, a veteran who has attended the Spring Festival Gala [-] times, dare not say that he is old here.

However, although he did not dare to challenge the seniors for his qualifications, in terms of world and experience, Cao Xuan is definitely top-notch.

But even so, seeing today's venue, Cao Xuan couldn't help feeling emotional.

"I have held a concert at the Temple of Heaven, and I have also been to the celebrations at the China Millennium Monument and the Great Auditorium. I have also rehearsed several times at the Bird's Nest, but this is the first time I have sung at the Taimiao. Don't say it, it feels really different."

Everyone: "..."

Is he really emotional, or is he just pretending?
Of course Cao Xuan is pretending to be aggressive, but at the same time, he does feel a little flustered. There are really not many places in the country where he can pretend to be aggressive.

Except for the inappropriate ones, he was basically asked to check in all over again. If this continues, there is really no sense of accomplishment in going to other places except the Grand Square.

Can't go abroad to open a copy?
The White House had contacted him to perform before, but Cao Xuan declined because he was busy with filming at the time. He can try it later when he has a chance. It doesn’t matter to meet the president, but he mainly wants to collect stamps.

Grammys, Oscars, Super Bowl, Victoria's Secret Show, New York/Washington/Los Angeles and other big cities, tens of thousands of people sang...Cao Xuan has been to the top performance stage in the United States almost every time. Apart from the White House, there is really nothing else worth mentioning that's it.

He can't follow Brother Deng's example and go to the Twin Towers to set off fireworks, right?
But this difficulty is too high, it might as well be a sneak attack that doesn't talk about martial arts during the White House performance, give Guan Hai a big punch, and give Rare Zong a roundabout kick...

This is definitely more shocking to the world than a concert in the Grand Square!
Cao Xuan imitated Kennedy's ideas here, and the time passed bit by bit. At 7:[-] p.m., the party officially started.

CCTV Zhu Jun, Dong Qing, Zhou Tao and other first-line hosts of the Spring Festival Gala were all present, and the CCTV Variety Channel also broadcast the show in real time, which was even more grand than the Spring Festival Gala.

"I'm coming."

After listening to the host's passionate opening remarks, but no one cared, the first program "Stand Up" started. Everyone was a little excited, especially when they heard the names of Cao Xuan and Cheng Long.

"stand up
my love holds the mountains
run to have expectations

The starting point writes my future, hey hey hey
......"

The two Chinese superstars Cheng Long and Cao Xuan, together with the singer Sun Yanzi, and Han Hong, who has surpassed Naying in the past two years and has the potential to be the first lady in the mainland music scene, joined forces to sing together. It can be said that the opening was a bomb.

Cao, Sun, and Han are all powerful singers in the Chinese music scene, with clear and melodious voices, pure and affectionate voices, and passionate and transparent voices.

Although Cheng Long's main business is an actor, his singing is actually not bad, and with his abundant emotion, bold and majestic singing voice and his own unique voice, his performance is better than many professional singers.

The voices of the four have their own characteristics, and the fusion is not only complementary but also promotes the sublimation of each other, and the effect is unexpectedly good.

In fact, this song was not sung by Cao Xuan at the beginning, but by a certain king and three other people.

The original version of the song was the theme song of a documentary film "One Man's Olympics", which tells the history of China's Olympic Games in decades since Liu Changchun participated in the Los Angeles Olympics alone.

The word "stand up" has two meanings. It not only refers to dreams and struggles, but also has a metaphorical meaning of the country and the history of China's Olympic Games.

However, considering that the song itself is a tribute to the Olympics, the melody is still relatively passionate and cheerful.

It is said that apart from Cheng Long and Sun Yanzi, the songwriter originally decided on a group of four, the other two were Cao Xuan and International Zhang.

However, Cao Xuan was holding a concert in the United States at that time, and the international chapter also declined for some reason, so he found a certain Wang and Han Hong to take the top spot.

For this evening, I don't know if the organizing committee felt that Cao Xuan's status was higher, and those who were capable would work harder, so they temporarily handed over this song to Cao Xuan.

Of course, a certain king is not idle. Apart from the finale chorus "Welcome to the Capital", there are two other chorus songs, which are considered to be one of the most sung singers today.

The following gala has always been songs + awards, many popular singers sang one by one, although the environment of Taimiao is not suitable for concerts, the audience can't see the stage clearly,

But the audience was still very excited. After all, all the famous big names sang live, and they didn't need bicycles.

But for Tian Wuxuan, apart from a few programs, he pays more attention to the elementary school girls next to him.

When Cao Xuan and Jay Chou appeared together, the atmosphere reached its peak, and the elementary school girls also cheered.

Looking at the happy elementary school girl, Tian Wu Xuanfu felt his heart, and felt that the couple next to him grabbed the elementary school girl's hand, holding hands and dancing left and right according to the melody.

Feeling that her hand was held by a generous and warm hand, the elementary school girl blushed, but did not break free.

Tian Wuxuan looked obsessed with the song on the surface, but he was ecstatic in his heart.

This time, not only the epitaph was thought out, but the names of the eighteen generations of descendants were all chosen according to the seniority of the Laotian family.

Zhu Yuanzhang called the expert!
Cao Xuan on the stage didn't know that his appearance assisted Tian Wuxuan, and he and Xiao Zhou were singing "A Thousand Mountains and Thousands of Waters" together.

"Flying with hope, I go forward to catch up
Don't get tired if you have a goal, wait for me to surpass

Abandoning everything far away, crossing thousands of mountains and rivers

......"

This song was jointly "created" by Cao Xuan and Xiao Zhou. Cao Xuan wrote the lyrics and Xiao Zhou composed the music.

This is also the first time they have collaborated to create a song, and the second time they have publicly sang and performed a new song on a formal stage. The last time they collaborated like this was in the classic show "Thousands of Miles Away" during the Spring Festival Gala. This gimmick alone is enough to overshadow the others.

After singing a song, the fans put down their waving hands, and so did Tian Wuxuan and the two.

However, Tian Wuxuan didn't know if there was a venue and environment bonus at this time, as if he had enlightened, full of inspiration, although he put down his hand, he didn't let go, and still firmly held the elementary school girl's little hand.

The elementary school girl pumped lightly twice, but she didn't pull away, so she blushed and let him do what she wanted. Tian Wuxuan did 20 somersaults in his heart, and then punched another set of combined punches, wishing he could kneel down to Cao Xuan and his old man Mom knocked one.

Two nobles on the road to leaving the singles!

After that, Xiao Zhou sang a solo Olympic song that he collaborated with Fang Wenshan, and Cao Xuan also sang "Forever Friends" solo.

This song is actually one of the songs of the Beijing Olympic Games. Yuan Shikong almost defeated "You and Me", but unfortunately the referee was off and could only lose.

Since the theme of the Beijing Olympic Games is [One World, One Dream], in addition to "My Dream", Cao Xuan also provided this song "Forever Friends", which is about the same world, and there are two versions in Chinese and English. , to facilitate singing and publicity.

However, because "My Dream" was too outstanding, it stole the limelight of this song. In the final stage, "My Dream" and the referee were basically in a stalemate.

Later, "My Dream" won the theme song, and Cao Xuan didn't want to waste this song, so he took it out and made it a promotional song, and made his solo debut at today's party.

"...

red white black yellow skin

the same temperature
The world is under my feet, love is planted in my heart

Auspicious clouds emerge, bathing the world

joy in your joy
breathe my breath
Make dreams come true and reach infinity
Gather in the same home

the same blue sky above

Forever……"

Whether it is the melody or the lyrics, it is majestic, with a certain passion and joy, and the music popularity is also good. It not only conforms to the theme of the Beijing Olympics, but also has a tune of children's chorus "Liuyang River" in the middle, which also incorporates ethnic elements.

No matter what, this song sounds more emotional than "You and I, heart to heart, living together in the global village".

However, in the end, he was still not selected. It may be a bit too much to judge someone who abolished the public because of private interests, but a few simple curses will definitely not relieve the anger...

After Cao Xuan sang this solo, the task of today's party was completed.

As for the final "Beijing Welcomes You" chorus, he did not participate, and the singers who appeared in the MV such as Xiao Zhou, Liu Tianwang, and Liu Huan also did not participate in this show, and Cheng Long led the finale.

Dozens of singers sang "Welcome to the Capital" together, and each of them had limited access to shots. Given their status and how much they showed their faces today, it's better to leave this opportunity to everyone.

The show started at 7:11 pm and ended at nearly [-]:[-] pm, almost four hours.

And in the past four hours, since Tian Wuxuan held Xiaoxiaomei's hand, he never let go, until the end of the show, he also brazenly held Xiaoxiaomei's hand.

But the elementary school girl couldn't help breaking free in the end, Tian Wuxuan was taken aback, thinking that the other party was angry, and apologized.

"Yeah... sorry, I thought we..."

Unexpectedly, the elementary school girl rolled his eyes at him, stomped her feet with a blushing face and said angrily, "Why, I want to go to the bathroom."

"oh oh."

Only then did Tian Wuxuan realize that the two of them watched the party for four hours and guessed that the elementary school girl wanted to go just now, but they didn't have the nerve to say so.

When the elementary school girl came out, the two walked out slowly. Tian Wuxuan still wanted to hold hands, but he didn't have the guts to hesitate.

The still gentle elementary school girl took the initiative to attack. When leaving the Taimiao, because there were too many people exiting, she said "don't get lost", and the little hand was sent to Tian Wuxuan calmly.

If Tian Wuxuan still can't react at this time, then he is not stupid, but pure stupid.

After leaving the Taimiao, taking a taxi back to school, and school returning to the dormitory, despite the scolding of the conveyance uncle and the dormitory aunt, the two of them never let go of their hands.

After sending the elementary school girl back to the dormitory, Tian Wuxuan stood in a daze for a few minutes before rubbing his hands, feeling the delicateness and softness just now, and returned to dormitory 404 with a smirk on his face.

As soon as the door was opened, it was known that the entire dormitory for this date was blown up.

Cai Que jumped up from the bed directly, with a look of hatred: "Damn it, it's already 12 o'clock, don't tell me you sent her back to the dormitory."

"Go away, who is like you, a devil in color, Lao Tian is an honest man."

Xia Hu despised Cai Que, then looked at Tian Wuxuan, and asked expectantly, "Is it done?"

Tian Wuxuan nodded and then felt a little guilty: "It should be counted, we are all holding hands."

"Calculate it."

Gao Qing laughed loudly: "Congratulations to Lao Tian for getting out of the order, someone will buy food for next semester."

Several people tossed and tossed for more than half an hour, and several others fell asleep one after another, but Tian Wuxuan was so excited that he couldn't fall asleep from tossing and turning.

I simply turned on my laptop, turned the brightness to the darkest, and covered it with a thin quilt, so as not to disturb my roommates, I browsed the Penguin blog hot search.

In fact, the number one most searched on Weibo is the "Beijing Welcomes You" MV in the morning. It is estimated that it will be difficult for anyone to squeeze it down in the past few days.

The second most searched blog was the countdown party just now, but when I clicked on it, it was already an afternoon blog, announcing the time of the party and part of the cast and crew and program list.

The new hot search in the past two hours ranked third, and the title on it was quite attractive.

[Who is half of the Chinese music world? 】

Tian Wuxuan clicked in and took a look, and found that there were three pictures. The first one was Cheng Long singing "Welcome to the Capital" with all the stars at the party, and the subtitle next to it read [Half of the Chinese music scene. 】.

The other two pictures, one is Cao Xuan and Xiao Zhou singing "Thousands of Mountains and Thousands of Waters", and the subtitle next to it reads [The other half of the Chinese music world? 】

One is Cao Xuan's solo "Friends Forever", which also has subtitles to introduce [The other half of the Chinese music world! 】

A declarative sentence, a question sentence, and an exclamation sentence clearly arrange the meaning of these three pictures.

People in the comment area were also amused or broken by these three pictures, and left messages one after another.

[Haha, half of the Chinese music world sang Cao Xuan's "Welcome to the Capital", and Cao Xuan, the half of the country, sang "Forever Friends"]

[One person, one song, can a single piece overwhelm Tang? 】

[Exaggerated, I watched this show, in fact, not only Cao Xuan sang solo, Liu Tianwang, Cheng Long, Zhou Jielun also sang solos, this is an exaggerated comparison deliberately made in the screenshot]

[Only I think Cao and Zhou together are the real half of the Chinese music world]

[Hehe, my grandma and Cao Xuan are both half of the Chinese music scene]

[One thing to say, Milk Tea Week is still talented, Cao Xuan and Jay Chou are indeed a little less, at least [-]% of the Chinese music scene]

[Why is it only [-]%? 】

[Seventy percent is almost the same, and there are many other excellent singers, so save some for others]

[I announce that in the future, there will be Cao Banbi and Zhou Yicheng in the Chinese music scene, and the remaining [-]% will be called Chinese stars]

[I dare not say that, our boss is just an ordinary "second-rate singer"]

【…】

Similar advocacy appeared one after another, Cao Xuan's fans had the most fun, and Xiao Zhou's fans quickly joined in.

Although "Tuesday Cheng" is not as good as "Cao Banbi", it is [-]% anyway, and all other singers add up to [-]%, so let's just accept it.

Cao Xuan's ability, achievements, status and prestige in the Chinese music scene are too high. Except for the most extreme fans, the vast majority of Jay Chou fans know that the two sides are not on the same level even if they don't admit it.

Many Zhou fans have given up on surpassing Cao Xuan. They have basically "ignored" Cao Xuan now, and only care about whether they can suppress other singers...

Fans of other singers are of course not convinced by this division, but they will not be able to find a strong rebuttal for a while.

Except for a few veteran kings and queens, most of the popular middle and new generation singers are far inferior to Cao and Zhou.

Even counting those veteran kings and queens, few of them can match Cao Xuan, but it is a bit exaggerated to put them together "[-]%". In terms of achievements alone, many people still admire Cao Xuan.

However, this is all a quarrel between fans and fans. Most of the singers are joking with each other, and few people really take this to heart.

With enough strength, you are what you say you are.

Insufficient strength will only increase laughter, but he is just a clown in private.

With the current status and achievements of Cao Xuan and Xiao Zhou, [Cao Banbi] and [Tuesday Cheng] may be exaggerated, but they will never be ridiculed. At most, everyone will play tricks and make fun of them.

Compared with these gossip and jokes, a few Olympic songs are really worth noting.

Although various musicians and music critics spoke highly of "Thousands of Mountains and Rivers" and "Friends Forever".

But when it comes to the most widely sung, "Stand Up" and "Welcome to the Capital", especially the latter, with simple lyrics and melodies coupled with official bombardment promotion, became popular in a short period of time.

In less than 24 hours, "Welcome to the Capital" occupied the top of the major music charts and remained high.

The singing of this song is everywhere on TV networks, online and offline, and in the streets and alleys.

After a few days, even a three-year-old doll and a 80-[-]-year-old lady can hum a few words, "My door is always open" and "The capital welcomes you."

Cao Xuan has a lot of hot hits, so many that he can't even count them if he is given a few minutes.

But when it became popular to the point of "Welcome to the Capital", among all the songs of Cao Xuan, it is not counted as the number one, and it cannot be separated from the top three, and it is even very likely to become the number one.

After all, this is the general trend of the Olympic Games, and the official push, the meaning and intensity are completely different from ordinary albums.

However, Cao Xuan personally didn't take this matter too seriously. After entering May, and after finishing the work related to the Olympics, he directly joined the group of "Save Mr. Me".

The scene of "Save Mr. Me" is mainly divided into two parts, one part is a battle of wits and courage between the police and the kidnappers, and the other part is a hostage scene.

For Cao Xuan, Mr. Wu is a very difficult role to challenge. This role is not difficult to play, but it is difficult to perform well.

Compared with the crazy and arrogant kidnapper Huazi, Mr. Wu is calm and introverted. Even if he has negative emotions such as anger, fear, and despair, he always maintains a very restrained state.

Many people say that the original Liu Tianwang was completely suppressed by Wang Qianyuan. In fact, Cao Xuan thinks that Liu Tianwang actually performed well, especially the part where he sings to the accompanying hostages.

In addition, Mr. Wu is not a hostage in the traditional sense. He kept communicating with the kidnappers during the kidnapping process.

Careful observation of the movie reveals a lot of details. Mr. Wu is trying to detect the kidnappers, but there are many metaphors, and many viewers may not have noticed it when they first watched the movie.

This kind of setting is actually a good shooting technique, but it is "unreal" to some viewers, who feel that the hostages are too fake.

In fact, most of these are what Wu Ruofu himself said and did. He was indeed negotiating with the kidnappers at that time.

He kept calm enough throughout the whole process, even though he knew he was about to die, he didn't lose his composure too much, and even the kidnappers admired him.

For Cao Xuan, what he has to do is to eliminate this "distortion" as much as possible while maintaining the characters.

To put it bluntly, for this type of movie, Cao Xuan didn't want to rush to the box office.

Commercial blockbusters are discriminated against. No matter how good his performance in "Three Kingdoms: Red Cliff" is, it is difficult to win an award, let alone an action movie like "Taken".

That's why I said before that in between commercial films, Cao Xuan wanted to take on a few literary dramas. It would be best if he could win awards, but if he couldn't, he could improve his acting skills.

Although his body smells like copper, Boss Cao still has an actor's dream in his heart.

Now it’s just a taste of restraint, and the main focus is still on commercial films. After he retires from the music scene, he will save some of his energy, and he may act in more literary films...

----

ps: Due to well-known reasons, the plot in May was skipped. On the one hand, it is more sensitive, and on the other hand, it is not easy to write

After all, it's an entertainment article, and it's on the line, which affects the tone of the whole book, but the protagonist doesn't do anything, and it's too awkward, so I skip it, and I may simply add a few sentences later, I hope everyone understands
　The last one is under review, wait a minute
