Chapter 472 Questions and Answers about Fishermen and Woodcutter!
Ye Cai'er is about to appear!
Audiences from all continents who are watching Qi Chu Wen Dou are excited—
This excitement and intuitive response is reflected in the ratings that have soared since Ye Cai'er's upcoming appearance.
the reason is simple.
First of all, Ye Caier’s guqin skills are extremely high;
Secondly, Ye Caier looks very beautiful!
Don’t underestimate the bonus of appearance, as long as you are beautiful and strong enough in a certain field...
No matter whether you play the guqin or play sports, you can become a super popular player, even as popular as those big stars!
And the quality is even higher.
So it’s normal for the audience to expect Ye Cai’er when she comes on stage. Half of it is based on her face, and the remaining half is really for her guqin playing.
The lens is focusing.
Ye Caier walked slowly towards the stage and sat in front of the guqin.
There was no trace of tension on her face. With a smile on her lips, she took out a pendant from her chest and kissed it gently.
This was left to her by her deceased mother.
Then, Ye Caier moved her five fingers and started playing.
The piece she played is called "Clouds and Rain in Wushan". It is a sentimental classic guqin piece that has been passed down from hundreds of years ago to today.
The audience is already familiar with it.
But Ye Cai'er found someone to adapt it.
In the original familiar taste, there are some interpretations of her personal style.
…
Chinzhou.
“Is this "Yunyu Wushan"? Some adaptations have been made? It feels more interesting than the original version!"
“The original version is the most classic, but this version is incomparably fresher, coupled with Ye Caier’s personal performance, that’s why it’s so exciting.”
“The level of this guzheng is amazing!”
“What the **** is that upstairs? It’s a guqin! It’s not a zither!”
“Ah, I always thought it was the same thing, but the performance is really good and has a lot of flavor.”
“It’s so white!”
“You’d better be talking about the guqin!”
…
Qizhou.
“Although Ye Cai’er is Xiao Chuzhou’s foreign aid, I have to admit that her level is really high.”
“I can’t quite understand it, but I feel it’s better than the last one.”
“Teacher An Yuyu is already very powerful, but Ye Cai’er is a rare genius in the field of guqin in a century!”
“Yes, this is also the reason why Ye Cai’er crushed everyone and won the championship last year.”
“Look at this year, it’s also the rhythm of crushing everyone!”
“This is only the first round, but it gives people an exquisite feeling!”
“We are going to finish this project!”
…
Chuzhou.
“Goddess Goddess Goddess!”
“Ye Cai’er really makes me cry to death, she is fighting for our Chuzhou!”
“Isn’t it because Chuzhou paid a lot of money...but I also like her so much!”
“Much better than the first one!”
“The first one is An Yuyu, a player from Qizhou. He won the bronze medal last year. He is actually not weak.”
“Haha, comparison makes a difference!”
“You are worthy of Cai’er for daring to adapt and perform such a classic tune!”
…
Zhaozhou.
“It’s time for Cai’er to show off to the audience again!”
“Cai’er appeared too early, putting a lot of pressure on other players (dog head)”
“An Universe: Fortunately, I was the first to play.”
“I can already feel the players behind me trembling.”
“The worst thing was the one who received Cai’er, his shot was blocked directly!”
“Cai’er’s level is ranked first even in Zhaozhou!”
"If Cai'er goes all out, it will be a huge blow to the people of Qizhou and Chuzhou, but she is serious."
…
Middle-earth.
“What an amazing Guqin technique!”
“This level is rare even in Middle-earth, right?”
“The master of masters!”
“This is the king of masters!”
“Even though I don’t know much about guqin, I think this piece of music is great!”
“The lingering and melancholy feeling is amazing!”
“I was just watching and playing, but I didn’t expect Qi Chuwendou to have such a player?”
…
no doubt!
Ye Cai'er's performance conquered the audience!
You can see how fascinated the audience’s expressions are at the scene!
Many people closed their eyes, as if completely immersed in the melody of "Yunyu Wushan".
Lin Zhibai was also appreciating it attentively.
He has legendary strength, so he can naturally tell what level Ye Cai'er has reached.
“Quasi-legendary level?”
Lin Zhibai made a rough judgment and felt that he was almost inseparable.
This made Lin Zhibai a little lucky that his current level was enough to deal with the opponent.
However, the competition is all about performance, and it does not mean that whoever has a higher rank will definitely win the championship.
Bronze can sometimes kill the king alone, not to mention Ye Cai'er's level is infinitely close to the legendary.
So Lin Zhibai must deal with it seriously.
Lin Zhibai has already prepared the works to be performed in the first round today.
Between thoughts.
Time passed little by little.
Ye Cai'er's performance finally ended, and the audience burst into warm applause!
At this time, 70% of the people watching the competition in various continents are those who know the guqin, otherwise they would not be able to attend this kind of competition.
Just like people who don’t understand basketball won’t go out of their way to watch basketball games.
As for the remaining 30%, they are purely joining in the fun. They can’t understand but can enjoy the music, or some people actively try to appreciate the charm of Guqin playing.
And now.
More than 95% of people know guqin!
So their reactions to the quality of the work are very intuitive!
The contestants backstage can feel that the enthusiasm of these audiences is obviously higher than that of the previous round!
If this feeling is not intuitive enough...
Then the fraction is very intuitive.
Ye Cai'er's performance reached a total score of 1488 points!
Of course the comparison is the average score.
Excluding the beginning and the end, Ye Cai'er's average score is 93!
This cast a shadow over the hearts of all the remaining players.
Especially the remaining three players in Qizhou, their expressions were a little strange, and they muttered in a low voice:
“It’s the rhythm of being beaten again.”
“What was the same last year will be the same this year.”
“President Lin, you don’t need to panic. If you lose this game, you will lose. No one will blame us, only the opponent is too scary.”
The three of them even comforted Lin Zhibai.
After all, this was Lin Zhibai’s first time seeing this formation.
Unlike the three of them and An Universe, who has already performed "Three Plum Blossoms", these four people were abused by Ye Cai'er last year.
“It’s okay.”
Lin Zhibai smiled and said, "The important thing is to participate."
Seeing that Lin Zhibai was in such a good mood and could comfort himself so much, the three of them nodded and said nothing more.
They don’t know it. Lin Zhibai's words were meant to comfort the three of them.
Ye Cai'er's existence is undoubtedly a dimensionality reduction blow to other players.
Although other players are also masters, Lin Zhibai estimates that their strength basically does not exceed 85 points.
the third…
Fourth place…
Fifth place…
Sixth place…
There are guqin masters from Qizhou;
There are also guqin masters from Chuzhou.
But whether they were guqin masters from Qizhou or Chuzhou, without exception, their scores were crushed by Ye Cai'er!
Don't say who is better than Ye Cai'er.
Even they are not as good as An Universe who appeared first!
An Universe finally got an average score of 88, which is a very good result.
Until seventh place came on the scene, a player from Chuzhou scored 89 points, surpassing An Universe.
But he was still far away from Ye Cai'er.
…
Faced with the current situation, all continents are filled with emotion again, but the most depressed people at this time are undoubtedly the Qizhou audience.
"Depend on!"
“The current number one and number two are both from Chuzhou!”
“We can’t even win a silver medal this year, so we can only compete for a bronze medal?”
“Why is it not as good as last year?”
“Although Ye Cai’er is very strong, let’s come back with a silver medal!”
“It feels like all these people have been tortured by Ye Cai’er and have lost their temper. Hey, we are the only one left here who has not performed, right?”
“Lin Zhibai probably has a similar result.”
The mentality of the audience in Qizhou is almost the same as that of the guqin players in Qizhou. They are lying flat and playing badly.
As the old saying goes.
If you don’t have hope, you won’t be disappointed!
Last year, we were full of hope and were brutally beaten. This year, the original team collided with the opponent's original team. How can we make a comeback?
Only Lin Zhibai is a variable.
The Qizhou audience also knows that Lin Zhibai has a master level.
But the problem is that everyone in this project is a master, so how can Lin Zhibai defeat Ye Cai'er, who crushes everyone?
It is in such an atmosphere.
The host called Lin Zhibai.
"The next contestant to come on stage is Mr. Lin Zhibai, a foreign aid invited by Qizhou from Qinzhou. Different from the previous seven contestants, the work that Mr. Lin Zhibai will bring to everyone is his own creation of "Fishermen and Woodcutter" Q&A!"
Of course it was not created by Lin Zhibai himself.
This song "Questions and Answers of Fishermen and Woodcutter" is one of the top ten ancient songs in China.
There are more than 30 versions of this song in the history of the music, some of which are accompanied by lyrics.
The existing score first appeared in "Xingzhuang Taiyin Continuation Score" compiled by Xiao Luan in the Ming Dynasty. There are many versions of the score.
Yang Biaozheng revised the music score and prepared lyrics. Qing dynasty qin players omitted the lyrics and slightly changed the tune to become an independent instrumental piece.
This piece of music is beautiful and clear. It uses a repartee-style melody to describe the conversation between a fisherman and a woodcutter.
Hence it is called "Questions and Answers for Fishermen and Woodcutter".
However, for all legendary instrumental music, the background stories are just embellishments. What really deserves attention is the quality of their performance.
So after the host named the name, he simply introduced the name.
If this piece of music is released in the future, Lin Zhibai will write the complete background story of "Qiao Qiao Qiao", which will help the audience understand its connotation deeply.
As for now?
Lin Zhibai must first impress the audience with his performance before people can be interested in the background story of the piece.
With a slight movement of eyes.
Lin Zhibai played the piano gently.
…
Qizhou.
“It’s Lin Zhibai’s turn.”
“Can the richest man save the world?”
“You want to eat shit? Do you still think that in a variety show, Lin Zhibai is invincible?”
“If you want to save the world, you have to defeat Ye Cai’er. Lin Zhibai is indeed excellent, but Ye Cai’er is really invincible when it comes to Guqin!”
…
Qinzhou.
“Chu Ci Chu Ci Chu Ci!”
“Bai Di, Bai Di, Bai Di!”
“Brothers, I have a hunch that Bai Emperor may surprise us!”
“I also had a hunch that his skills may not be as good as Ye Cai’er, but the music he composed is definitely outstanding!”
…
Chuzhou.
“This is the Lin Zhibai who signed up for all the projects.”
“He withstood the 360-degree camera test!”
“He’s so handsome! No wonder Ye Cai’er asked him for his contact information just now.”
“Don’t make up your mind!”
…
Middle-earth.
“It’s him, Lin Zhibai who defeated Zhuge Qiuliang!”
“This guy has something special. His calligraphy can rival that of Zhuge Qiu Liang, and his guqin is also at the master level…”
“I just don’t know what level of master I am.”
“After all, there are differences between masters.”
…
Those who know the guqin but not those who don’t are all listening attentively.
Lin Zhibai’s performance is very leisurely, unhurried, and the rhythm is slower than anyone before.
Those who are so slow that they don’t understand the guqin may even feel some ink stains and wonder why this person is so slow.
But Ye Cai'er, who was closing her eyes and concentrating in the background, suddenly opened her eyes, and something strange flashed inside them.
at the same time.
The expressions of the judges also became more and more serious.
The audience who knew how to play the piano raised their ears high. Unlike those who didn’t understand, they smelled the music.
This is an elegant flavor and a free and easy style.
When the theme tone began to change and develop, and new tones were constantly added, coupled with the use of the rolling whisk technique, the seventh paragraph of "The Questions and Answers of Fishermen and Woodcutter" finally reached its climax!
this moment.
Countless spectators at the scene showed expressions of extreme enjoyment!
Ye Cai'er's expression at the backstage changed from strange to shocked!
She could hear the hermit's unrestrained, unrestrained and contented mood in Lin Zhibai's piano music!
The technique of splashing and three-bombing is used to create a strong sound, which matches the syncopated rhythm, making Ye Cai'er feel the majestic mountains, as if there is the sound of thumping axes in her ears!
Great song!
Good technique!
It is indeed Lin Zhibai who can create "Three Plum Blossom Lanes"!
Ye Cai'er, who has been passionate about guqin since she was a child, her eyes started to light up, just like the impulse she had after hearing "Three Numbers of Plum Blossoms"!
She wants this piece too!
etc!
This is a competition, and I and Chu Zhou promised to win the championship.
If you can't get it, you have to pay a sum of money. Of course, if you get it, you can make more!
Ye Cai'er needs money so much!
Only when you have money can you organize Guqin activities, so that this art can continue to be passed down, and more people can enter this field!
Ke Lin Zhibai’s strength...
It seems to have posed a huge threat to itself!
This is something Ye Cai'er never expected before the competition started. She thought she could win this competition easily!
“You have to be serious…”
“But compared to winning first place, it seems more important to obtain the copyright of this song?”
Ye Cai'er was in a tangle.
The audiences watching the live broadcast from all continents suddenly became lively, and countless guqin lovers were excited!
Although their playing level is not as good as Ye Cai'er, their appreciation level is not low...
This is normal.
Just like the cooking skills of gourmets, they are definitely not as good as those of professional cooks.
So audiences from all over the world also heard the extraordinary nature of Lin Zhibai’s piece!
“There’s a show!”
A certain guqin lover in Qizhou who had completely despaired over the performance of the Qizhou guqin project suddenly slapped his thigh hard!
I am attending an event in Guangzhou these days, so the update time may fluctuate a bit, but the basic guarantee should be no problem ~
