Chapter 899 - Being Forced to Attend the New Years Gala (2/2)
They would definitely vote for him out of interest.
“How is it?”
Director Li Huawen’s voice was full of respect for the New Year’s Gala. He said, “The New Year’s Gala is a big event for all the people in Huaxia, so naturally, they should decide which person to perform at the New Year’s Gala. If they don’t choose you, I will respect their choice, but if they choose you…”
“Alright.” Fang Qiu was speechless and helpless with a wry smile. He gritted his teeth and said, “I will perform at the gala if they choose me!”
Now that Director Li wanted the audience to vote, what else could Fang Qiu do?
Director Li was determined to have him attend it!
“Good!” Director Li laughed and said, “Take a look at the list, which one do you want to choose?”
Then he quickly passed the list to Fang Qiu.
Helplessly, Fang Qiu could only pick up the list and read it carefully.
After reading it, he found that he was a layman in sketch comedy and cross talk, and he would only drag other professional comedy actors down.
So he decisively skipped this category. If he chose it, he would only be able to perform as a supporting role.
After thinking for a while, Fang Qiu said, “I’m not good at these things. If I have to make a choice, I’ll sing.”
“Okay.”
Director Li Huawen nodded and said, “As expected. I’ve asked someone to write the song for you in advance and it’s done. Be quick. I’ll take you to audition after the meal!”
“It’s done?”
Hearing this, Fang Qiu was speechless. “Director Li, you’re just playing tricks on me?”
“Hee hee.” Director Li Huawen chuckled.
“Without tricks, you will not obey my order!
“Oh, no, I mean, follow my suggestion!
“Boy, I’m helping you, okay? The New Year’s Gala will bring you more than you can imagine.”
After talking, they finished the meal quickly.
Then Director Li Huawen took Fang Qiu directly to the recording room on the 15th floor of the Central Television building.
This was also one of his tricks. He had already prepared it beforehand.
Seeing that no one was surprised by his arrival, Fang Qiu suddenly felt that Director Li was really tricky!
Li Huawen directly took out a piece of paper and passed it to Fang Qiu, saying, “This song is written for you. Take a look and see if you can sing it or not.”
Fang Qiu took it and looked at it carefully. He found that the song was easy, so he immediately nodded and said, “No problem.”
Hearing Fang Qiu’s confident answer, the mixer who had been waiting there immediately came over and said with a smile, “Although this song looks easy, it’s actually quite difficult to sing it well. It demands singing skills of a high order. Ordinary singers don’t dare to sing it at an important event. Are you sure you can perform it?”
“Yes.” Fang Qiu nodded.
“Well, would you like to go back to practice for a few days first and then come back to try the recording after you are familiar with it?” asked the mixer as he glanced at the director.
Director Li Huawen was also a little worried.
He knew how awesome Fang Qiu was. Fang Qiu could perform the theme song of the Young Chinese Medicine Doctor perfectly after listening to it once. He was really awesome.
But it was completely different from the one in Fang Qiu’s hand, which only consisted of the stave.
The problem was how to grasp the changes of tonality and how to express the beauty of this song. A new song was definitely not something an ordinary singer could perform well. Moreover, Fang Qiu was not a singer.
“Well, let’s begin.” Fang Qiu smiled.
“Start now?” the mixer was stunned.
“Yes.” Fang Qiu nodded with certainty.
“Director Li?” the mixer looked at Director Li Huawen.
“Let’s start,” Director Li said.
Director Li Huawen saw a calm and confident look on Fang Qiu’s face, which he had seen many times on the stage of the Young Chinese Medicine Doctor.
Fang Qiu was always so confident and calm; he had indeed done something that others could not do.
“Believe in him!” Director Li Huawen said again.
“All right.” the mixer nodded.
He took Fang Qiu into the recording room and told him to sing to the microphone.
Then he came out and turned on the instrument, prepared to process the voice.
It was not that he didn’t believe in Fang Qiu but that this song was really hard to perform, demanding high singing skills.
Therefore, he planned to do pitch correction when Fang Qiu couldn’t sing high notes. At least, he would save Fang Qiu’s face first and give him a perfect template, so that he could learn from it and practice.
After all, he still had more than 20 days to practice. As long as he practiced well, he could perform well at the New Year’s Gala.
Well prepared, the mixer made an “OK” gesture to Fang Qiu in the recording room outside the soundproof glass.
Fang Qiu began to sing.
His singing made the mixer stunned in an instant.
He even forgot his work.
There was no need to process the voice!
Li Huawen’s eyes also lit up.
Fang Qiu was as awesome as usual.
With his voice and singing, he must perform at the New Year’s Gala!
