Who else?
The audience soon found out!
When the second singer walked out from behind the moon gate, the audience's eyes widened in an instant. They were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped!
"Heavens!"
"F * ck!"
"Who did I see?"
"Zhao Wuliu!"
"It's Zhao Wuliu!"
"God, this is!"
"Aiyo, it's really him!"
"You scared me! You really scared me! "
The music started, and Zhao Wuliu started singing loudly.
The moment he opened his mouth, the audience felt as if they had returned to 20 years ago!
Zhao Wuliu — one of the earliest pop singers in China's music industry. In that era, he and Grandma Zhang Xia were almost at the same time. In the field of singing, Zhang Xia was one of the top artists, while in the field of pop music, Zhao Wuliu was a leading figure who was popular all over the country. He was an A-list celebrity at that time. Times had changed. There were many A-list celebrities now, and the entertainment industry was developing very quickly. But 20 or 30 years ago, there were not many A-list celebrities. Zhao Wuliu was one of them in the music industry. Anyone who was slightly older would know of him. He was one of the earliest pop idols in China. But no one knew when it started, but Zhao Wuliu was no longer seen on screen, and it had been a long time since anyone had heard any news about him. After all, he was already in his forties or fifties, and the times had changed. There were rumors in the streets that he had already bid farewell to the music industry, and there were even media reports saying that he was seriously ill.
The backstage also blew up!
Zhang Xia exclaimed in surprise, "Whoa, old friend!"
He Huan exclaimed, "That's a true god!"
"Senior Zhao?" Chen Guang's eyes widened.
Xue Kaiqi was also quite shocked, "Teacher Zhao has returned?"
Amy exclaimed, "Isn't the production team too resourceful? He even managed to invite Senior Zhao out of seclusion! What was there to compete about? I grew up listening to Senior Zhao! "
The host's manager's room exploded with activity!
"I choose Teacher Zhao!"
"Go to the side, Teacher Zhao is mine!"
"I'm telling you, don't you dare fight with me!"
"Little Yan, didn't you just say you wanted to be Sister Dong's manager?"
"I'll change, okay?"
"Let's not fight anymore. Whoever gets it can keep it!"
"Let's listen to the song first. It's too good!"
"It's still the same flavor from back then!"
…
Below.
The third singer was about to take the stage!
The audience's expectations had already climbed to the peak!
"Even Zhao Wuliu is here. Who else?"
"Another one!"
"I can't see clearly! Who is it? "
"1.7 meters? A man? "
"Eh, the outline looks familiar!"
Finally, he walked out from behind the Moon Gate!
The audience once again let out cries of disbelief!
"Old Chen!"
"Chen Guang!"
"The big brother of the music industry!"
"What the hell! This is awesome! "
"Chen Guang is here too!"
"What kind of lineup is this? I'm already shocked! "
"Do you have to be so ruthless?"
Zhang Xia kept shaking her head and giving a wry smile. "I'm guessing that Little Chen will be here to support Zhang Ye. Little Chen is not easy to deal with. I've heard him perform live for so many years, and he has never made a mistake. When it comes to singing, experience, and live performance, there aren't many people in the music industry who can compare to Little Chen."
Xue Kaiqi facepalmed. "Oh no, another Almighty has come!"
Chen Guang had already started singing. He hit a high note right off the bat and it made everyone's hair stand on end!
Chen Guang was not a has-been or retired singer. He was one of the most popular figures in the music industry right now. It might be controversial to call him the "big brother of the music industry," as everyone had different standards of evaluation. But if Chen Guang was said to be in the top three of the male singers in the music industry, no one would doubt it. Be it popularity, singing skills, experience, or qualifications, Chen Guang was one of the top few. Even his wife, Fan Wenli, could not compare to him.
…
Then, the fourth singer took the stage.
“AMY！”
"Wow!"
"My Little Amy!"
"Spring Garden has sent two people!"
"Pfft! Amy and Xiaodong must have been scammed by Zhang Ye together! Looking at this situation, I'm guessing that Amy is going to fail! She won't get eliminated, right? "
"Get lost, Amy sang very well!"
"Listen, it's really not bad!"
"I've never heard Amy sing a solo before. She's so good!"
Amy's stage style was more lively. Her voice was not as recognizable as Xiaodong's, and her singing skills were not as good as Li Xiaoxian's, but she was especially good at driving the atmosphere and using music to interact with the audience. Her music was also very high-pitched and could easily bring the audience into it. In terms of rapping skills, even Xiaodong and Li Xiaoxian combined could not match up to Amy. Her rapping skills were a powerful trump card!
…
The fifth singer came out.
"He Huan!"
"Aiyo, it's Old He!"
"The prince of love songs!"
"He's the number one love song singer in the country!"
"He only released his new album last month, right? It's selling like crazy! "
"The love songs he writes are all pretty good! His singing skills are amazing as well! "
"In the field of love songs, He Huan is sweeping them all! Even Chen Guang can't compare to him, right? "
"Yeah, that's because Old Chen rarely sings love songs!"
"Why are all these gods here!"
"Who else is there?"
"My heart can't take it anymore!"
…
The sixth singer appeared!
"Xue Kaiqi?"
"Am I seeing things?"
"It's her!"
"The Princess of Love Songs, Xue Kaiqi?"
"Princess Xue was so popular back then! She was on the same level as Fan Wenli! After she got married and had a child, she bid farewell to the music industry! "
"I'm really not that familiar with her."
"You don't even know Xue Kaiqi? Five years ago, when she casually released an album, the online demo went up to 30 million RMB! It's just that she hasn't released any new songs in recent years that her popularity has dropped. "
"Both the Prince of Love Songs and the Princess of Love Songs are here?"
"This is so exciting!"
"Listen, her voice isn't in the best condition?"
"Maybe she's just nervous."
"I think it's really good. It's so clear!"
"'Love Years' is the song that made her famous. I can't get tired of it no matter how many times I listen to it!"
…
There was only one singer left!
Who would be the seventh singer for the finale?
The answer was revealed very quickly!
Walking out from behind the moon door was a smiling Zhang Xia. Everyone knew her. She was a frequent guest on the Spring Festival Gala every year. Because of Zhang Ye, she had also appeared on the stage of variety shows in the past year. Based on her personal relationship with Zhang Ye, it shouldn't have been a surprise that Zhang Xia would appear on I Am a Singer. But on the contrary, when the audience saw that the seventh singer was actually Zhang Xia, they were even more surprised than when they saw the contestants before her!
Grandma Zhang was participating in the competition?
How was she going to compete against others?
She wasn't even a pop singer! She was a singing artist! She walked the artistic path and walked the high end of things. The artistic awards she had won could fill up a whole wall. Be it her works or her singing skills, they could all be performed in the Great Hall of the People or on a world-class music stage. If it was judged based on art, then there was no need to compete. The other six singers on this stage combined would not be a match for Zhang Xia alone. But if it was judged based on pop music, then Zhang Xia clearly would not be able to compete with the other six singers, right?
But very quickly, they realized that they were wrong!
When Zhang Xia picked up the microphone and opened her mouth, everyone was shocked!
"In this day and age, the season is fast.
"Many flowers are blooming.
"The wind lingers, the clouds are in a daze.
"The beautiful scenery is shut outside the door.
"Waiting for someone to pluck it, I feel uncomfortable.
"I'll slowly understand.
"The flowers have bloomed, so it's not surprising that no one has come."
It was Zhang Ye's "Wild Rose"!
But this time, Zhang Xia did not sing it in a bel canto style. She sang it in a low register. From a technical point of view, this was a standard pop singing style!
It was so good!
It was so good that it shocked everyone!
Backstage.
The singers who had finished their performances were all gathered in a waiting room.
Amy's jaw dropped!
Zhao Wuliu was a little startled!
Chen Guang sighed in admiration!
Xue Kaiqi gasped repeatedly!
He Huan was even funnier. He made a gesture of bowing in bewilderment!
The audience was also shocked. This was the most shocking performance that many of them had heard today. Only now did they understand what it was like for a famous singer who had been singing for over 30 years to put down her airs and sing a pop song!
Screams!
Applause!
Some people even cried when they heard it!
Compared to Zhang Ye's version of "Wild Rose," Zhang Xia's version did not have as much anger. Zhang Xia's performance was more restrained, reserved, and sorrowful.
At this point, all seven singers had finished their performances!
"It's time to vote!"
"Who should I vote for?"
"It's so hard to choose!"
"Yeah, they were all so good. Damn!"
"I'm convinced today! It's an indescribable shock! "
"This is what a fucking professional singer should be!"
"What do you mean by professional singers? These people are the fucking most professional of professional singers, alright?! Any one of them can scare a whole bunch of people to death! "
"I'll vote for Zhang Xia!"
"I'll vote for Zhang Xia too, nothing else!"
"Old Chen still sings better!"
"I'll vote for Zhao Wuliu. It's so sentimental!"
"It's still Sister Dong and Grandma Zhang who surprised me the most!"
The audience was still intoxicated by the seven voices and couldn't extricate themselves for a long time!
It was so enjoyable!
It was so good!
It was so luxurious!
So this was Zhang Ye's new show?
The biggest stage, the best equipment, and the industry's number one variety director, Zhang Ye, the big brother of the music industry 20 years ago, and the current big brother of the music industry, the number one love song singer, a member of the number one girl group in the country, and one of the top three singers in the country!
What kind of lineup was this?
This was a lineup that could sweep away the entire "world"!
Even the wildly popular King of Masked Singers back then paled in comparison to this show!
The audience could not see the tallies of the votes because the program team would do it separately. Just as everyone was leaving Beijing Television with a longing for more, they suddenly thought of Sing!, which was being recorded at Central TV Department 1 at the same time. They did not watch it and did not know what was going on with Sing!, but they finally understood why Zhang Ye dared to put I Am a Singer and Sing! on the same day and at the same time. They couldn't help but have a question. If Central TV Department 1 knew that I Am a Singer was a show like this, if they knew that I Am a Singer had invited such a group of people, would they still dare to broadcast Sing! at the same time as I Am a Singer?
The answer was unknown.
The outcome would only be known after the broadcast.
