Chapter 385 What about people?

The "Singer" program rehearses one day in advance. At about this time, competing singers will come to Tanzhou City from all over the country, so there will always be fans and reporters waiting at the airport in advance.

Even though he was wearing a cap and a mask, Ye Zhiqiu was quickly discovered. Many reporters caught up and handed over the recorders without explanation.

The assistant beside Ye Zhiqiu had already had experience and walked quickly ahead.

Mei Ziyun, who was walking next to Ye Zhiqiu, encountered this kind of battle for the first time. The young man was nervous and looked around excitedly.

Many reporters looked at Mei Ziyun curiously, and a question flashed in their minds.

Who is this person?

He doesn't look like an assistant, and those who are familiar with Ye Zhiqiu know that he is different from Zhang Yifan. He usually has a few necessary assistants when he goes out, and he is very down-to-earth.

However, everyone was just confused for a moment. Knowing that Ye Zhiqiu would run away if they didn't hurry up, they quickly asked questions.

"Mr. Ye Zhiqiu! Are you confident in this competition? Where do you think you can get this time?"

To everyone's surprise, Ye Zhiqiu seemed to be in a good mood today. He stopped and answered the question seriously.

"Of course I have confidence, but I feel that the meaning of the song sung this time goes beyond the ranking in the competition."

Ye Zhiqiu's answer stunned many reporters.

So exaggerated? Don’t you sing Cantonese songs? Is the content of the songs rather special?

However, it was rare for "interview black hole" Ye Zhiqiu to be so cooperative. Many reporters didn't care so much and quickly continued to ask questions.

"Then what do you think of Zhang Yifan and King Xiao Jie? Do you think you can beat them this time?!"

Ye Zhiqiu looked calm and answered directly as always.

"The final ranking is decided by the audience's vote, but I said, I have confidence in myself."

really!

The eyes of many reporters lit up. Ye Zhiqiu was not interested in doing interviews. As long as he answered questions, he never hesitated.

Many people have already thought about the title of today's article.

"Before the competition for "Singer", Ye Zhiqiu was full of confidence and bluntly said that Zhang Yifan and Xiao Jie were nothing."

The reporter who wanted to make big news quickly continued to ask questions.

"Zhang Yifan said that the style of the songs performed this time is very avant-garde. What do you think?"

Ye Zhiqiu was startled and asked curiously: "Avant-garde? What style?"

A reporter who knew about it quickly added: "It's a combination of autotune and singing. Zhang Yifan's music team was hired from abroad at a high price."

"This team has experience in producing music for many well-known foreign rappers."

Ye Zhiqiu nodded slightly, understanding in his heart.

What did you think it was? It was essentially a sound editing effect.

He doesn't have any special opinions on the matter of pitch correction, because even if "Singer" is a live show with 100% real singing, the function of pitch correction is actually applied.

It's just that the sound modification in this sense is usually more about removing the rough edges and making the sound more moist, etc., but the original voice and true voice of the singer are still preserved to the greatest extent.

Autotune, on the other hand, builds on this foundation and goes even further, "manipulating" the sound in various ways to achieve a "voice-changing" effect.

In this way, the singer's voice can change more, and the stage effect can naturally become more diverse.

As far as Ye Zhiqiu knows, regardless of whether it is avant-garde or not, there are indeed not many singers in China who use this method to sing.

The reporters didn't know what Ye Zhiqiu was thinking. Seeing that he was silent for a moment, they couldn't help but ask questions one after another.

"What do you think of Zhang Yifan's singing style of autotune? Could you please give me an answer?"

"Mr. Ye Zhiqiu, you are singing a Cantonese song this time. Could you please tell me the specific style?"

The assistants on the side frowned slightly. These reporters kept talking about Zhang Yifan, and they were obviously asking "challenge" questions.

Ye Zhiqiu's answer was also straightforward.

"Autotune is a great tool, but if it were me, I wouldn't use it in "Singer"."

"As for my song style this time."

Ye Zhiqiu thought for a moment and said, "It's exactly the opposite of 'avant-garde'."

"It's a very 'traditional' song."

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and an idea suddenly flashed through their minds.

Avant-garde vs traditional?

After answering these questions, Ye Zhiqiu stopped lingering and walked forward.

Ye Zhiqiu and his party arrived at the TV program center and started rehearsing.

Agent Zhou Miao is also very curious about what exactly Ye Zhiqiu refers to by "tradition" and why he specially brought a backup dancer this time.

Seeing the dignified and nervous look on the live band's face, Zhou Miao became more and more confused.

Until Ye Zhiqiu and Mei Ziyun, who were wearing casual clothes, came on stage and the song ended...

Zhou Miao's eyes widened, her jaw almost dropped in shock, and she had only one thought in her mind.

Ye Zhiqiu is going to make a big move!

That night, Ye Zhiqiu's interview at the airport made headlines in many entertainment media and immediately aroused heated discussion.

Xiao Jie's fans are okay. After all, the show has been going on so far. I don't know how many times I have been online with netizens who support Ye Zhiqiu, and I am used to Ye Zhiqiu's "craziness".

However, Zhang Yifan's fans are obviously still in the "sensitive period", and they all commented sarcastically on the news.

"I'm very confident, but I don't know who lost in the last round."

"If you say you don't know how to use autotune on a singer, you obviously don't know how to do it."

"Zhang Yifan's music style is in line with international standards, and he is still a superstar even abroad."

"The word "tradition" is boring when you hear it. I guess you will lose this game too."

However, this time, in addition to Ye Zhiqiu's fans, many passers-by also expressed their support for Ye Zhiqiu's views.

"I'm not a fan of Ye Zhiqiu, but I think he is right."

"I have no bias against autotune, but it seems that this format is not suitable for a program like "Singer"."

"I agree, a singer's pitch, breath, voice, etc. are all important components of singing skills, but when using autotune, these characteristics are blurred."

"Actually, this thing is not too avant-garde. It has appeared a long time ago, but it is true that domestic singers don't like to use it."

"By the way, I'm really curious about what Ye Zhiqiu means by 'tradition'."

"Isn't he singing Cantonese songs? If you add 'traditional', it means ancient or Chinese-style Cantonese songs."

"It's possible that he was completely fooled by the public judges in the last issue. This time I was there and the vote was absolutely fair!"

"I don't care how many names the author of Hahaha Dog gets, as long as he has new songs to listen to."

The next day, the live broadcast of "Singer" began under everyone's attention.

However, when they saw the agent Zhou Miao walking into the common room alone, the audience in front of the TV and the players were full of questions.
