Chapter 64 Rave Reviews
"After listening to the song "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond", I feel like falling in love."

The first to give her evaluation was Queen Lin. She smiled and said, "Feng Shiqi, you have a very talented voice. What you showed on this stage today was clear and sweet. It made me want to hear no one else's voice except yours."

Lin Qingying looked at Bai Xingjian, "To be honest, I was actually quite worried just now, afraid that you would do a fierce rap and ruin the mood of the song, but in the end it was really beyond my expectation, the gentle monologue not only did not ruin the mood, but instead added a kind of literary and elegant style."

“I can only say that the creator is worthy of being a creator. He has his own unique understanding of the song, which is very good!”

Lin Qingying's evaluation of Fenghuang Yufei was full of praise.

The little bit of humor in it also made the audience laugh out loud.

"It turns out that Queen Lin also felt like falling in love when she heard this song. I thought I was the only one."

"Queen Lin is not young anymore, but there doesn't seem to be any scandal about her in the entertainment industry. Is it true that she is a non-marriage advocate as people say on the Internet?"

"Who knows? But Queen Lin is already 32 years old, so she should have had a relationship before, right? If not, how miserable it would be."

"Do you still need to empathize with the Queen's affairs? You should pay more attention to yourself."

"Brother, I'm just surfing the Internet."

Amid the discussion, the camera turned to Xu Wenzhou, who once again gave Bai Xingjian a thumbs up:

"Today's song 'Moonlight over the Lotus Pond' is tranquil and classical in style, incorporating traditional instruments such as the guzheng, flute, and pipa. It is full of the lyrical tunes of the Jiangnan water village and is an authentic Chinese style song. I haven't heard music like this for a long time."

Nowadays, influenced by short videos, most of the music on the market is based on brainwash melodies. Songs like "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond", which incorporate multiple elements and have a strong classical Chinese style with a humanistic temperament, have become very rare.

Xu Wenzhou felt a little emotional. With the development of the times, why is the music market not as good as before?
"If GoldenCold's song "Telephone Booth" describes the realistic problems faced by men and women in modern society, this song "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" describes a moving picture of a young man and woman in love in a lotus pond on a summer night."

Xu Wenzhou continued to comment: "In terms of lyrics and music, the two songs have their own characteristics, but the lyrics of the song "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" are more lively, the artistic conception is more beautiful, and the sense of picture is stronger. I think this is worth everyone's thinking and exploration. Moreover, "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" was created by a young man like Bai Xingjian, which makes me a little unbelievable."

Hearing this, Wang Yaqi and Li Zhenxi, who were sitting in the preparation room, felt a pang in their hearts.

There is no doubt that Xu Wenzhou has made his choice between "Telephone Booth" and "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond".

If even he is like this, what about the audience?

"To be honest, I actually have some regrets and feel a little unsatisfied."

When it was Gu Zetao's turn to comment, he said: "In fact, compared to that part of the monologue, I would rather hear a rap. I know this may ruin the overall mood of the song, but this song has a strong Chinese style, and adding rap may make it an iconic Chinese rap."

Traditional Chinese style rap is what Gu Zetao is pursuing at the moment, so he really hopes to hear such songs on the show.

In Gu Zetao's eyes, Bai Xingjian has this attribute.

As for why not put your expectations on other people, especially the group consisting of only rappers, Zonghengxian?

The reason is simple, the Chinese style is too strong and he doesn't like it very much.

Gu Zetao's remarks also aroused discussion among many netizens.

"Ah? Is this instructor so obsessed with rap?"

"Yeah, yeah, if that's the case then why didn't he go next door to participate in "The Rap of China"? "

"When the next-door show 'New Rap' started filming, our little Gu was still abroad and didn't have time."

"To be honest, I also want to listen to Chinese style rap songs. Nowadays, many rappers use VPNs when they rap. The styles are too uniform, and improvement depends entirely on the speed of the Internet."

Gu Zetao asked Bai Xingjian: "'Moonlight over the Lotus Pond' is a song with a strong Chinese style. Bai Xingjian, do you have any plans to create some Chinese style rap songs?"

Bai Xingjian nodded: "I have this idea and have tried to create such a song, but it will probably take some time to complete the work."

There are actually a lot of Chinese-style rap songs, and there are quite a few excellent works.

But at the moment, Bai Xingjian doesn’t have any of them.

As for "In the Name of the Father", strictly speaking it is not a Chinese style rap song.

"very good."

Gu Zetao was very satisfied with Bai Xingjian's answer. He smiled and said, "I look forward to your next performance."

Many contestants in the preparation room couldn't help but smack their lips. This instructor Gu Zetao is very optimistic about Bai Xingjian!

"They said so much, I don't know what to say anymore."

Qiao Xi feigned anger and glanced at the three instructors beside her, then spread her hands helplessly.

The humorous little action caused laughter from the audience.

"The girls are beautiful, the boys are handsome, the songs are nice, and the stage design is great. It's like I'm seeing ourselves in the past."

Qiao Xi pointed at Su Ning beside him.

Suning nodded, then snuggled up to Qiao Xi.

"I don't know what to say but you're just showing off your affection, right?"

"Sister Xi is really good at this!"

"Suning's cute and cuddly look... is a bit eye-irritating."

"Don't mention it, don't mention it, the current Fenghuang Yufei really has the flavor of the bird and fish combination of Qiao Xi and Su Ning back then."

"Really? Birds and Fish also fought their way out of a show, right?"

"Hiss~ This feeling... I have goosebumps."

“Are we going to witness the growth of a national group?”

"Interesting, interesting."

What Qiao Xi said sparked heated discussions among countless netizens.

Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi on the stage looked at each other with a faint smile on their lips.

This is a very high evaluation!

"I hope you two can keep going like this and go further and further."

Qiao Xi encouraged them with a smile and gave them both a cheering gesture.

Suning picked up the microphone and said, "Xixi is right!"

Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi couldn't help laughing and bowed slightly to express their gratitude with a smile on their faces.

"It seems that the five mentors are very fond of "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" and "Feng Huang Yu Fei". Next, we would like to invite Ms. Su Caitao from the professional jury, a music critic known as 'Sister Tao Tao', to give us her evaluation of Feng Huang Yu Fei."

Sanshui raised his hand and pointed to the seats where the professional jury was located.

I saw a graceful urban beauty standing up from her seat, holding a microphone, briefly introducing herself, and said with a smile:
"The melody of the song "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" is very beautiful, and it leaves one with endless aftertaste after listening to it. However, what I want to talk about most is the lyrics. The lyrics of this song are very visual and full of imagery. The verbs in the lyrics are used very flexibly, and combined with ingenious rhetoric, they create a beautiful artistic conception.

As Professor Xu Wenzhou said, the lyrics of "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" are worth our careful savoring and consideration.

The two of them performed very well! Feng Shiqi used her soft voice to create the image of a Jiangnan woman full of classical beauty, which is completely different from her previous songs "All Is Love", "Free Flying" and "Above the Moon". This is a very powerful point for a singer!"

Speaking of this, Su Caitao couldn't help but give Feng Shiqi a thumbs up.

Looking at this older sister music critic who often interacted with them on the Internet, Feng Shiqi also bowed slightly to express his gratitude.

"As for Yoyo brother."

Su Caitao let out a long sigh and said excitedly, "You really know how to surprise people! You used gentle monologues to replace the dynamic rap. I personally feel that those few lines of your lyrics are the best part of the whole song!"

Su Caitao made a small joke: "Is this really the willfulness of the creator? He left the best part of the song for himself to sing."

The whole audience burst into laughter.

Bai Xingjian smiled and looked at Feng Shiqi, as if to say, "Don't listen to her nonsense!"

Feng Shiqi blinked her eyes and smiled sweetly.
