Chapter 411 Song Selection
This is also specially selected by Zhou Zhi.
"Ussuri Barcarolle" is a very beautiful tenor song. It is rarely sung by a female voice. Even if it is, it is mostly performed by a mezzo-soprano, and there is almost no version adjusted for a soprano.
Or Zhou's aesthetic theory - the sense of strangeness in the familiar.
With digital equipment, tuning is not a problem at all. Zhou Zhi raised the KEY and adjusted it to a version suitable for Guan Tingting's vocal range.
Zhou Zhi also wanted to fine-tune the equipment, and Guan's mother stood directly in front of Guan Tingting with a nervous look on her face, listening to her daughter singing.
After singing once, Zhou Zhi marked down many areas that needed attention, shook his head and said, "Tingting, you are still too nervous. You no longer have the feeling of singing in the corridor."
"Brother Jiuzi, have you finished debugging it? If you have debugged it, come in front of me. Mom, stand aside!" Guan Tingting gave the order.
"Okay, let's try again..." Zhou Zhi pulled the high stool in front of Guan Tingting, pressed the remote control button again, then closed his eyes, shaking his head along with the prelude, while holding a red pen in his right hand and making waves.
type gestures.
When Guan Tingting's singing came together, Zhou Zhi brought his own expression into the joyful mood of the singing.
The effect came out immediately, and Guan Tingting's singing became relaxed, cheerful and agile.
This is the contagiousness of emotions.
After singing the song, Guan Tingting asked: "Brother Zhuzi, how was it this time?"
Zhou Zhi gave a thumbs up: "Great! There are just a few places where flaws appeared twice. I marked them for you. Please pay attention to those points when you sing this time. Even if you sing relaxedly, anyway,
We didn't start recording until we sang it perfectly."
"Okay! This thing is so advanced! It comes with high-end accompaniment!"
"Don't worry about this for now, let's continue."
The third time she sang, it was still the pattern of the two cooperating with each other. This time, Guan Tingting's performance was more relaxed and her singing was quite perfect.
"Beautiful!" Zhou Zhi never hesitated to praise Guan Tingting: "With two more years of hard work, this song can be regarded as Tingting's signature song."
Guan Tingting also felt that the song she sang just now was good: "It's a pity that it was not recorded."
Zhou Zhi laughed and said, "It has been recorded. I would lie to you if I said it wasn't recorded. Only in this way can you get your most natural state."
"Hey, I didn't even fix my hair just now, and my expression wasn't in place either. I must be really ugly..."
"I believe you, brother Zhu, this is the best. Now relax, huh? Relax, let's move on to the next song..."
In the end, three songs were recorded in total.
One is "Usuli Boat Song", which is used to deepen the teachers' impression of Guan Tingting;
One song is the popular sung "Red Dust". Of course, this song cannot be performed well by the little girl in the second grade of junior high school today, but it can let the teachers hear the true nature of the little girl's voice and understand the girl's foundation and potential;
The third song is "My Motherland". This song is about showing off her skills, or trying her best to show off her skills. The purpose is not to surprise the well-informed teachers. In fact, it is to let the teachers know that Tingting can do her best now.
Reachable height.
In order to achieve this goal, "My Motherland" was also promoted to KEY by Zhou Zhi, because Guan Tingting's innate conditions are quite good.
It sounds simple, but in fact it is not easy. Without digital equipment to record the tuning, it is quite a test of the singer's skill.
Of course, this also has the advantage of letting the teacher know most clearly what Guan Tingting's problem is.
Zhou Zhi spent two nights on three songs. On the first day after school, he went to the broadcasting bureau to set up a recording studio, and on the second day he recorded and videotaped.
The songs are all recorded at night because the vocal range of a person’s voice is one or two notes wider at night than in the morning.
By the time I was basically satisfied with the recording of the three songs, it was already past midnight when I came out of the broadcasting station.
Guan Tingting didn't stay up all night like this. Now she still feels excited and novel. She doesn't feel sleepy at all. She is jumping up and down with Zhou Zhi on her arm, clamoring for Guan's mother to treat her to grilled fish.
There has always been a tradition of ghost food at night in Jiachuan. In the past, it was fermented glutinous rice eggs, glutinous rice balls, rice noodles, hand-cooked noodles, and dandan noodles that have been spread all over the world in later generations.
With the gradual improvement of people's living standards, now there are more and more cold drinks in the summer, which are mainly braised vegetables, cold dishes, boiled peanuts and edamame and beer. In the winter, there are now more spicy skewers and grilled fish and boiled beer.
"The Sword Comes"
There are even two single-pot quick-fry restaurants.
The varieties are gradually becoming richer, and ghost restaurant shops are opening bigger and bigger, but Guan Tingting said that if you want to eat grilled fish, you must eat grilled fish.
The current Jiachuan grilled fish is also passed down from Yuzhou. The exact place of origin of the grilled fish is actually Yuzhou. According to legend, the creator is the female descendant of the famous chef Ye Tianqi in Yuzhou.
This is also a very interesting story, and Zhou Zhi included it in "Interesting Stories of Sichuan Flavor".
In short, the current grilled fish is neither named Wanzhou nor Wushan, and the ingredients are simple. The ingredients are cheap grilled fish and carp.
The method is also simple. Kill the fish, remove the scales, cut the back of the fish to remove the internal organs, wash it, cut it with a knife, add cooking wine, green onion and ginger water and marinate it.
Then put it on the grill and bake it until it is five or six years old, brush it with the old oil for the first time, and then brush it for the second time when it reaches 90%, and then put it on a stove plate lined with shredded onions or leeks or folded ear roots and set aside.
Grill the fish here, stir-fry the other side. The stir-fry ingredients are ginger, garlic bean paste and Yongchuan tempeh, the hot pot base. Stir-fry over medium heat until fragrant. Add the remaining oil and fresh soup. Finally, add celery, cucumber, and boil over high heat. Pour into the fish plate.
middle.
This is actually an alternative vegetarian hot pot, but with very little soup.
The last step is a basic step for making fish - heat the oil until it is 50% hot, add dried chilies and dried Sichuan peppercorns, stir-fry over medium heat until fragrant, then pour it on the fish, add shredded onions and coriander and serve.
Light the small alcohol stove, put the grilled fish on it to keep it warm, and you can start cooking.
In order to thank Zhou Zhi, Guan's mother ordered a three-pound grilled fish and a pot of special boiled beer.
To make beer, you add rice wine, red dates, wolfberry rock sugar, and put it into a kettle and boil it. The alcohol content is even lower than that of beer. It can only be regarded as a drink at best. Guan Tingting can drink it openly in front of her mother.
It has been popular for a long time that singers need to protect their throats by eating spicy food, drinking alcohol, and smoking. However, it seems that neither Mama Guan nor Guan Tingting believe this. Mama Guan even occasionally gets happy and even smokes a cigarette.
For example, now, Guan's mother has put down her reserve and flicked her cigarette ashes skillfully with her orchid fingers: "You eat fish, my elbow! What are you doing with vegetarian dishes? Tingting gives her brother a piece of fish tail!"
"I'll do it by myself..." Zhou Zhi said quickly, first taking a piece of fish to Guan Tingting: "Tingting, too. She's still fussing about eating so late. Her saliva will wet her pillow when she sleeps."
"You just lost your pillow!" Guan Tingting was very happy: "Brother Zhuzi, you said there will soon be a place in Jiachuan where you can use the equipment you just used to sing?"
"Yes, I guess there will be another month." Zhou Zhi nodded: "The ballroom of the cultural center will be transformed into a karaoke OK, and Brother Dayong is contracted."
