Cai Chengyu, the "prince of bel canto" who is well known to the audience for "Sound into People's Hearts", was interviewed by Nandu reporters before participating in the recording, he said: "On the stage of "Flowing Song", I can experience the kind of stage that everyone can sing with me when I sing, which is a form that I especially like. Because when I sing a play or give a concert, I don't have many opportunities to sing with everyone, and in contrast, I prefer that people can enjoy and share music with me. ”

Referring to the "original intention" of the show, Cai Chengyu said that it was a great honor to interpret the classic red work of "Singing the Motherland" in the program, "Although this song has been sung many times, every time it is sung, it will still make me feel excited." As a young artist, my original intention is to stick to myself and cherish every opportunity in the moment. ”

Asked if he would interpret classic works in a new way, he said: "What is new is classic, and what is classic is new." He believes that "classics" are eternal and "new forms" that will never go out of style. Cai Chengyu also shared his "fate" with this classic work, he recalled: "Before I used to communicate with the descendants of Wang Xin, the composer of "Singing the Motherland", in the process to better understand the background of the creation of this song, and then I followed the teacher's creative path, personally went to each scene, and personally experienced the emotions in the song. ”

As a young generation, Cai Chengyu uses music to communicate with fans and use songs to inherit red culture. He said that singing these classic old songs with his heart and conveying the emotions and connotations contained in the songs with his heart is the way he can resonate with the younger generation.

In the interview, Cai Chengyu also mentioned that he had just finished filming the TV series "Hundred Refining into Steel" dedicated to the centenary of the founding of the party. In the play, Cai Chengyu plays a small soldier of the Red Army "Yun Guichuan", this small Red Army does have its own person in history, the small soldier with a bamboo pole to climb over the cliff, leading the team to detour to the enemy behind the enemy to occupy the commanding heights, and the main army to attack the enemy fortress from the front.

For this "electrocution" experience, Cai Chengyu frankly said: "As opera actors, we actually have acting classes, but we may be more exaggerated on the stage, the presentation of expressions. When shooting a TV series, it is not so natural in front of the camera, and the camera will amplify some of your performance. So when I started shooting, I was still nervous. And the shooting time is relatively long, there are some activities or work in the middle, and the time needs to be coordinated. Thank you very much to director Mao Weining for his affirmation of me, director Mao said at the time, first watch my play, see how I act. After reading it he said, 'Don't change people, just him!' That's the biggest encouragement to me. ”

The younger generation has a sense of distance from the revolutionary history of the Long March, as a post-95 Cai Chengyu said: "I have studied and understood the story of the Long March and the historical background of that period, which allowed me to better integrate into this period of history, not only helped my performance to a certain extent, but also made me deeply understand the core of the spirit of the Long March." In my understanding, the spirit of the Long March is an optimistic revolutionary spirit, and no matter what kind of environment the Soldiers of the Red Army are in, they still hold the victorious belief that "the bones of the wind and rain are harder, and the revolutionary ideal is higher than the sky.". ”

At the recording scene, Cai Chengyu embraced the heart of a child and performed "Singing the Motherland" on the stage, and the bright and majestic rhythm flowed in his high-pitched and fiery voice line, and the sound sense was full of points, allowing the audience to immerse themselves in it.

Alain: Through our interpretation, let more young people know about history

This time, Alain will sing more than ten classic works such as "Deep Friendship Long" and "Wanquan River Water Clear and Clear" for the audience on the "Flowing Song" stage, of which the solo song "Deep Friendship Long" is about the deep love of the Chinese Red Army and the Yi people, she said: "Because everyone knows that I am a Tibetan girl and likes to listen to my relatively high-pitched voice, so I chose this song." ”

She shared her original intention to participate in this program with Nandu reporters, she said: "We live in a peaceful era, as young people, we hope to continue to inherit and carry forward the spirit of hard work of the older generation." There are many classic old songs that may not have been heard by the post-00s, and through our interpretation, more people can understand our own history, which is the meaning. ”

From "Chinese Music Ceremony", "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves 2" to "Flowing Song 3", the recording of many variety shows has enabled Alain to open the mode of "variety show master". But she said: "The original intention of choosing to participate in these programs is to make yourself feel happy, not against your own wishes, and comfortable enjoying the process of work." I will conduct strict screening when choosing a program, and I will do my best in the process of participating. ”

Alain said that in the "Chinese Music Ceremony", she can use her own strength to inherit the Chinese Chinese music culture, in "Flowing Songs", she can perform songs that pay tribute to classics, and participate in "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves 2" because she wants to break through herself.

She is more inclined to participate in music programs, because music programs are very different from variety shows, variety shows need 24 hours to follow the shooting, will catch the artist's most real state, such as "Sister 2" to catch her mouth to open the bottle cap shot, sweep her "fairy qi", she thinks that it is actually nothing, just her usual real appearance.

Participating in "Flowing Songs" will let everyone see a very dedicated and dedicated Alain. She confessed: "More than three hours, I have been rehearsing. Because I know that this kind of show is to present the charm of your scene, to see if you sing well, it may also break the tone. Music is my profession, and I want all the audiences who are present or in front of the TV to see the part of my profession and solid basic skills. ”

Alain, who has always been "Buddhist", chose to participate in the more "cruel" women's group growth variety show "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves 2" this year, which is a particularly big gain for her. "The show made me realize that I was already a 30+ woman, but I didn't want to admit it. In my heart, GangGangjie (Yang Yuying) is my role model, and I want to be like her, breaking the boundaries of age and always maintaining a 'girly' mentality. ”

She said sincerely: "I hope that everyone will see the struggle and efforts of our sisters, and I also want to tell all women: age is not a boundary, first of all, women must learn to love themselves, believe in themselves, no matter what your identity is, you can not give up the pursuit of beauty, can not give up their hobbies; secondly, you have to be self-affirming, to let yourself live a very wonderful side, because this is your own life, not someone else's life." ”

But everyone who participates in the show will have fierce competition, ask her where the confidence comes from? She laughed and said: "The first is to learn music from a young age, and my musical literacy is OK; the second is that I think I look more cute; the third is that my voice conditions are good; and the fourth is that I can also play a little instrument." Fifth, as long as I don't feel embarrassed, the embarrassment may be someone else. ”

In the fiercely competitive entertainment industry, Alain has always held an indifferent attitude, insisting on her own musical path, some fans call her "lazy and lazy", she humorously expressed her understanding of this "nickname": "Everyone has different choices for their career planning, some people want to ride the wind and waves, and I just want to lie quietly on the sea level, comfortable, leisurely and leisurely through this life." ”

At work, Alain actually has a "not lazy" side. She said: "The song will always be sung, and the record will always be out. She has just released a new song called "Promise to Love You"; recorded a Tibetan song, which will be released in July; "I personally wrote a song called 'The Island Owner of the Tallillo Islands', inspired by myself, and I took my fans to live on a carefree island, a little nonsense and two-dimensional".
