Chapter 907: Obstruction of Musical Range
When Xia Haoyang and Zeng Jingyi arrived at the studio, the clock had already reached 10:34.
"Sorry, I got up a little late this morning and encountered a traffic jam on the road, so I was a few minutes late." Xia Haoyang explained to the staff who came to the lobby to greet him.
"It's okay, Mr. Xia. It's true that you worked too long yesterday. You got home at five in the morning this morning. In fact, next time you encounter a similar situation, you can rest directly in the hotel room we arrange. This will save you the time of traveling back and forth." The staff said kindly.
"Okay, next time I'll follow your production team's arrangements. By the way, Jingyi has nothing to do today, so it should be okay for her to come and take a look around our production team."
"It's such an honor. I can't even say enough to welcome you. I want to ask, is it convenient for Ms. Zeng to be in the camera?"
Xia Haoyang glanced at Zeng Jingyi, only to see her nod slightly. "It's okay for you to guest star in a few scenes, but not too many. If you shoot too many, I'll charge you more."
When Xia Haoyang and Zeng Jingyi appeared on the studio hand in hand, it caused a commotion. The students were very respectful and screamed loudly and applauded enthusiastically.
"I'm very sorry that I'm late and have kept you all waiting..." Xia Haoyang wanted to express his humility.
"If you allow me to take a photo with my idol Zeng Jingyi, we will forgive you..." a student shouted loudly at the scene, and attracted more people's approval and cheers.
"No problem. After today's shooting is over, I will definitely meet everyone's requirements." Xia Haoyang replied with a smile.
With the arrival of Xia Haoyang and Zeng Jingyi, Director Tian naturally came over to say hello.
After Zeng Jingyi briefly greeted several instructors, Director Tian walked beside Zeng Jingyi and asked, "Jingyi, do you want to say a few words to the students?"
"I'll forget it. I just don't have anything to do today so I came here to have some fun and listen to the students sing."
"Say a few words, say a few words, or at least share some of your experience." The students watching didn't know whether they really liked Zeng Jingyi or whether people nowadays knew how to deal with things, so they all asked Zeng Jingyi to say a few words.
Encouraged by the students, Zeng Jingyi came to the center of the venue, microphone in hand:
"First of all, I am very happy to be on the stage of "Competition 100". The reason why I came here on impulse is because I heard my senior brother mentioned yesterday that we have many outstanding singers and many beautiful voices. As everyone knows, I heard that Senior Brother Xia's studio was recruiting singers when I graduated from school, and then I ran to apply. I also went through layers of selection and finally became a singer and a member of the Tara girl group."
Zeng Jingyi looked around the scene and said, "Just now someone asked me to share some experience of participating in the audition. Actually, there is nothing much to say. Just show your own voice characteristics, choose a song that suits you, and sing well. I sincerely hope that everyone can show their level. Thank you."
Without saying too many inspiring words, Zeng Jingyi just gave a few simple words of encouragement and handed the microphone back to the staff. Then, amid everyone's enthusiastic applause, she sat in a corner and waited quietly for the contestants' audition.
As contestants of the talent show "Competition 100", some members have debuted as a group and are quite famous, but they came to this stage in their individual names. But today, a duo came in front of mentors such as Xia Haoyang at the same time.
"You two are going to sing together as a group, right?" asked Teacher Pei.
The two little girls nodded.
Xia Haoyang suddenly asked, "Then how will the promotion be selected? If both of them sing very well, of course they can both advance at the same time. But if one of them performs a little worse during the singing, will both of them fail to advance, or will the one who performs better advance but the one who sings worse not?"
The two looked at each other, and one of them said, "If one of us doesn't sing well, then we won't advance together."
Another girl said, "If my poor singing affected the overall performance of the two, then I should not advance and Bai Xi should advance."
After hearing this, the girl named Bai Xi immediately grabbed her friend's hands and said, "Hui Mei, we agreed to advance and retreat together. Either we advance together, or we leave together."
"Bai Xi, I can't hold you back. In case I hold you back, I still hope you can continue to move forward on this stage."
Xia Haoyang smiled and said, "What if she is holding you back?"
The classmate named Hui Mei glanced at Xia Haoyang, without looking at the students around her, and whispered, "That should be the same."
"Okay, please start your singing." While Huimei's friend Bai Xi was still in a daze, Xia Haoyang suddenly asked the two to start singing.
The two people's expressions also caused the contestants off the field to whisper.
After the song ended, the other contestants in the audience gave sparse applause, and then waited for the evaluations from the three mentors.
The three instructors looked at each other. Mr. Pei from Yancheng Film Academy, who was sitting on the far left, thought for a moment and said, "Although I am a little hesitant, I will still give it a pass."
The two little girls were a little happy and clasped their hands together.
The mentor sitting in the middle, the now popular singer Lin Yang Huiyun, also thought for a while and said seriously: "I can hear that both of you have great potential. This one is Huimei, right? Your high notes are great, you have a standard bel canto foundation, and your vocal range is very wide. It can be said that among the hundreds of contestants present, there are only a few who have a wider vocal range than you. Your partner Bai Xi also has excellent harmony. I think this is why Teacher Pei passed you even though hesitant just now."
Teacher Pei smiled and nodded.
"But I have to say that the performance just now was a bit bad. You are a duo, but your coordination was very uncoordinated. One of you was ahead of the other, which was a very amateurish mistake. In addition, your harmony in the chorus was not in the same range and there was an obvious interval obstruction."
"Everyone here is a professional. You should understand what interval block is, right?" Lin Yang Huiyun not only glanced at the little girl singing in front of her, but also glanced at the other contestants sitting around her.
Seeing some people nodding woodenly, but some people were equally confused, Lin Yanghuiyun smiled and explained: "When performing harmony, we generally avoid parallel fourths and parallel fifths between two parts. This is because parallel fourths will make the parts feel closed, while parallel fifths will lack interval changes and layers, so we will change the interval of one part or insert an interval between two parts to break the appearance of parallel fourths and parallel fifths, but the performance of the two just now disappointed me."
