In the distant memories of the majority of netizens, the last person in his fifties to take command was Mu Guiying.
After May 10th, the history of internal entertainment will be written again.
A music competition variety show that gathers domestic and foreign guests, the singers who rank the competition, and the audience who breaks the defense.
There are a total of seven contestants in the first episode, the first two are international friends, and Na Ying can only rank third. The rest of the Chinese singers are more fierce than the competition for the first place.
After watching it, netizens frantically "shook people" and named many singers to participate in the show to save their respect, and there was only one thought in their hearts:
To tell the truth, the last time I saw everyone with such a strong sense of competition was the World Championships broadcast by CCTV5. And now Na Ying is the only hope for the whole village.
was on the show before, and was pulled by Zhang Songwen with three jumpers to chase fireworks at night, Yingzi was so scared that he read all the way: "Songwen, I am fifty-seven this year, and I have children and a home......"
Yingzi, did you think of it yourself? In competitive variety shows, you who are 57 years old and still carrying two bottles of fast-acting heart-saving pills on the show are the age of Chuang.

The adventures of Na Ying
According to past experience, Na Ying is out of the horse, a top two. With her in the music competition, there is almost no suspense about the championship.
But this time there was an exception.
After singing the masterpiece "Mo", Na Ying leaned against the wall and stepped down: "I'm too nervous! My soul is about to fly. ”
In the first round of the first competition of "Singer 2024", which focuses on a "real singing without repairing the voice" and is broadcast live throughout the whole process, the first Canadian post-00s singer Faouzia (Faouzia Oyia) opened his voice, and "crazy" exploded the audience; 57-year-old American singer Chante Moore (Chante Moore) "If I Ain't Got You" soared out of the dolphin sound and won the first place.
Yingzi is really nervous, in the first half of the song, her eyes have not been opened, and her body is stiff like a stump.
She took third place – the best result for a Chinese singer that night.
I don't know what the Chinese singers from the fourth to the seventh place think, anyway, netizens are "unable to collapse":
Wang Sulong, Second-Hand Rose, Rainie Yang, Hailai Amu, singers of different styles are on the same stage, making people unable to tell where they are for a while:
Netizens suddenly discovered that the only Chinese singer who can play on stage and can do it is Na Ying.
couldn't bear to watch Yingzi "ride the wind and waves" on stage alone, netizens frantically "shook people", and mobilized all their own connections in "internal entertainment", hoping that someone would come to the rescue soon.
The first to be named is the Legend of Phoenix, which is touring the country:
And then there's Gong Linna.
Later, it was divided into genres and singing cue Han Hong, Deng Ziqi, Yuan Yawei, Zhang Liangying, Zhang Jie...... and even Huayin Laohua and Mongolian Humai.
Are you in a hurry? We, the audience, are in a hurry.
In fact, the director has made a statement about the lineup before, and many singers have politely refused because of the live broadcast, and there are very few singers who want to meet the strength, courage, and schedule.

Technology and ruthlessness
A singer with strength, guts, and schedule, can't find it?
Of course not. Those singers who don't dare to open the microphone without repairing the live broadcast have stayed in the greenhouse of traffic for too long.
What is certain is that it's not all about the artist.
Fans want to see the stage of idols with 100 points, the team doesn't want any negative artists to do anything, the financiers need the highest cost performance, and the platform needs more traffic...... After multiple buffs are stacked, a new "unspoken rule" is born: traffic is king, talent is not good, and technology is the top.
A well-known music producer revealed to Zhongxin Entertainment that many of the works heard on the music comprehensive have been repaired, and "there is no way to listen to them if you don't repair them". He broke the news that two days after recording a song for an actor, he was asked why he didn't fix the sound, thinking that it was a "waste of cost" to record it.
There are also musicians who bluntly said in an interview with Zhongxin Entertainment that many singers are now overly dependent on technology, and some singers in the studio as long as they are recorded materials, can be put together, can be repaired, and will not "waste time" to polish repeatedly, and even some financiers will propose "don't pick so finely, just fix it, otherwise the invited artists will not sing".
Having said that, although in the first issue of "Singer", although the performance of Chinese singers is somewhat unsatisfactory, in the "traffic whirlpool" where filming relies on dubbing, photography relies on refinement, and singing relies on sound repair, such courage is definitely worth encouraging. It is in this way that we can see the real gap in internal entertainment.
The music critic "Ear Emperor", who has always been known for his spiciness, commented that the requirements of live broadcast for singers' professional ability and the authenticity of singers' singing skills have been improved, but the aesthetics of the works have been downgraded.
But as viewers, we welcome this aesthetic degradation of tearing the fig leaf. After all, what the audience likes is the singer's real singing ability.
Besides, when there is no shortcut to vocal, less technology and hard work, more practice.
Don't let technology eat away at creativity, only real skills can be worthy of the audience's love.
