Chapter 133: "Ninety-nine Eighty-one" After Qi Long and Dong Qiang bowed and left the main stage, they came to the side stage. The special host Sa Beining looked at them with a smile and welcomed them to the center: "It's a very interesting and thoughtful crosstalk. Who wrote it?" "He wrote all our crosstalks!" Gao Dongqiang pointed at Qi Long. Qi Long shook his head: "Usually after I finish writing, Teacher Dongqiang gives me some suggestions and makes revisions. We discuss it together." "That's true, but generally speaking, there's nothing wrong with Teacher Qi's notebooks!" Dong Qiang also said with a proud look. Sa Beining frowned: "I think there is something wrong!" "Where?" Qi Long asked. "You sang too little. I haven't heard enough and it's over. So, you go on stage and sing another one!" Sa Beining pointed at the main stage. Qi Long looked at him in surprise: "Is this the link you wrote for the two programs?" "The organizer wrote it and they insist that I say it!" Sa Beining took out the question card.
Qi Long nodded in agreement: "I said that you can't write such smooth lyrics at your level!" "Hahaha! So you are trying to insult him?" Gao Dongqiang laughed. He thought Qi Long said that because the turn of events was a bit abrupt. "If I say I wrote it, he will definitely say it's not very good!" Sa Beining revealed Qi Long's thoughts in one sentence. He would not deny the hard work results of the staff, but he denied that Sa Beining was fine. The two were just joking. Sa Beining said to the audience: "In fact, we invited Mr. Qi to the party not only for the crosstalk performance, but everyone knows that the Phoenix Band is here, and the party wants the Phoenix Band and Qi Long to sing "Mountain and River Map" from our show together!" Upon hearing this, the audience was excited. "But I didn't agree. I said I was short of money. Could you give me more money if I sang a new song? The person in charge of the evening party said yes, so I sang a new song for everyone: 'Ninety-nine Eighty-one'!" Sa Beining nodded: "Why, you want to go on stage and recite a multiplication table?" "Teacher Sa, you think too highly of him. There is no way he can memorize it!" Gao Dongqiang responded. "Let's listen to what "Ninety-nine Eighty-one" is!" Sa Beining pointed to the main stage. The audience looked surprised. Qi Long was still standing on the side stage when the lights on the main stage came on and all kinds of Chinese traditional instruments began to play, but the singer wasn't there yet! In fact, the prelude of this song is more than one minute long, and Qi Long would just be standing there awkwardly. It would be better to give the instrument masters some time to perform. Qi Long could take off his coat and walk over. Inside the coat was the performance costume. The instrument teachers played faster and faster, and as the tempo gradually quickened, Qi Long walked down the steps at the back holding a microphone. At the same time, the microphone in his hand was rotating in his palm, horizontally and vertically, looking very skilled. Screams started all of a sudden. Qi Long was angry when he talked about it. He finally got a guaranteed skill after a month of lottery, but it turned out that the skill was called "Turning Microphone". I'm a crosstalk actor and I don't even hold a microphone. What's the use of this? I can only play it while singing. The accompaniment gradually became faster and faster. Qi Long changed from walking to running. After running to the center of the stage, he threw the microphone into the air, then grabbed it horizontally, caught it steadily, and started singing. The smooth movements shocked the audience, and one audience member even exclaimed that he was so handsome. Well, judging from the voice, it’s a male audience member! The sound teacher of the party was shocked. If he didn't catch it, it would be a stage accident. He would have to re-record it with a bang, and the microphone might even be broken, which is very expensive!
[On the road, encountered tigers and bears in Gongzhou, went crazy five hundred years ago, Teng Xiao is Sun Wukong again! ] [Lost horse, white dragon flies over Eagle Valley, sand river blocks the road, Tianpeng is collected in Fuling Mountain! ] This is not a comeback performance on the crosstalk stage. When Qi Long sings new songs, sometimes the audience can't hear the lyrics clearly, or can't determine what the lyrics mean. This was a live evening party, so when Qi Long was singing, the big screen behind him was playing the images of the characters from the animated version of Journey to the West, with subtitles and lyrics. As soon as these two lines of lyrics came out, the audience knew what "Nine-Nine Eighty-One" meant. It's not the multiplication table, but the ninety-nine eighty-one difficulties in "Journey to the West". Can this be connected? It sounds pretty good! Some viewers' attention was focused on the lyrics, to see what "difficulties" Qi Long had written! Some audience members simply ignored all that and just swayed along as they watched Qi Long singing confidently and easily on the stage. Just have fun, who cares what he writes? The laymen were quite excited, while the experts were listening to the details. Many singers backstage were shocked. Why was the tempo of the song so fast and the pitch so high? Most importantly, open mic. As a crosstalk artist, how can you sing such a difficult song with the microphone on? Amateurs are also involved in the music scene! The singers were concerned about the difficulty of the songs, while Sa Beining was concerned about the lyrics. He said to Dong Qiang, "Qi Long is really talented. Look at the lyrics he wrote. He gave people a different Tang Monk and Sha Monk!" "The ones about Bajie and Wukong are better written later, just take a look!" Dongqiang said with a smile. He also liked the lyrics very much and wrote them down. Tang Seng's lyrics are: [Release the demons, thirsting for my weakness, use your skills to force me, defeat them one by one and let you know my true colors! ] The monk Sha said: [The evils of thousands of miles have destroyed my silence. I shoulder all the burdens and the road is bumpy. If I don’t say anything, why should others gossip about me?] The first chorus ended here, but what everyone didn't expect was that Qi Long started performing the second verse almost without any pause. The pitch didn't change at all, his voice was still high, his pronunciation was still clear, and he didn't feel tired at all. That's natural. Recording an evening party is not a variety show, so sometimes you have to hand in your phone. When he went on stage, Qi Long used the magical props in the software to restore his physical strength and vocal condition. Now he is in his prime! Although this tune-up from another world is long, it is still manageable for a crosstalk artist who has memorized countless lines since childhood. Soon, Qi Long sang many names of monsters in Journey to the West. Dong Qiang sighed at the time that Qi Long seemed to have written a running song, "Names of Monsters in Journey to the West". When we come to Bajie's lyrics, we see this lustful second brother from a different perspective. [The writers laughed at my greed. Who among those who have collected fine wine dares to say that they have ever been drunk? Don't blame me for being infatuated with love in my life. I wish I could be a romantic man and admire beautiful women. I hope to embrace the most beautiful woman in the world! 】 "Great words!" Sa Beining couldn't help but applaud: "Qi Long always looks at things from different angles, and interprets Bajie's lust in this way." "It's not that complicated, it's masculinity!" Gao Dongqiang responded. "I'm very curious now. Bajie writes so well. What should I do, Big Brother?" In this song, Wukong's lyrics are the longest part, but it only takes one sentence to ignite everyone: [But he is stubborn, he won’t admit his mistakes, he won’t reflect on his past, he is the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, he is a walker on earth! ] This sentence was just mentioned casually, but the audience was so excited that they were roaring in the audience. Here, the song comes to an end: [After all, I have truly walked through this world, and after a smooth journey of nine hundred twists and turns and nine thousand mistakes, I finally achieved the right result. But I still have ninety-nine and eighty-one kinds of reluctance to leave! ] As Qi Long sang, he raised the microphone, which gradually moved away from his mouth until it was raised to the highest point. After a few seconds, he stopped singing. The accompaniment continued, and the audience burst into thunderous applause and cheers.
The audience was excited by Qi Long's song. They never expected that a crosstalk actor could make everyone laugh with his crosstalk and his singing could make the whole audience excited. Coming to the side curtain again, Sa Beining couldn't help but ask: "Under what circumstances did you create this song?" "I had this feeling while reading Journey to the West while lying on the hospital bed!" Actually, he saw it recently. After his coins were freed, he started to read those works such as must-see when entering the site and must-see every week. When he saw this, he thought it was very good and it didn't exist in this world, so he moved it here! Gao Dongqiang, as his partner, joked: "He created a lot of jokes on his hospital bed, thought of a lot of variety show ideas, and wrote a lot of songs!" "Ah? You make me want to be hospitalized!" Sa Beining joked, and the three of them laughed together. The two of them also officially left the side stage and entered the interview room. The staff of the small broken station came to interview them and first asked Qi Long if he had any plans to join the station. If he were to join the station now, these two videos would definitely go viral. Qi Long waved his hand: "I have a number, but I won't make it public, in case you find out that I never pay for videos!" The joke made the interviewers laugh, but Qi Long wasn't interested, so they turned to ask Dong Qiang. Teacher Dongqiang has a Bilibili account, but he doesn’t have any works. Have you ever thought about filming some works? “I don’t know what to shoot!” "I know," Qi Long raised his hand: "Well, Dongqiang, you work out every day, right? Invite your artist friends to train and work out with you. It must be interesting to watch the artists suffer!" Dongqiang nodded thoughtfully: "This is a good idea. Let's look forward to my first video. Teacher Qi, when will we shoot it?" "what?" "Shouldn't you be invited first?" "Excuse me! I can't!" You're shooting yourself in the foot! Qi Long also exercises, but Dong Qiang’s exercise volume is so high that he can’t stand it at all. That guy is more ruthless than the most ruthless coach in the gym. Shaobing is already considered a fitness expert in Deyun Club, with a body full of muscular muscles, but sometimes he can't stand training with Dongqiang. With my small body, haven’t I been abused in the past? "You can do it, believe in yourself, hahahaha!" Dongqiang laughed proudly. Afterwards, the two were interviewed about some questions related to the website, such as which sections they often visit, and they were asked to leave New Year's greetings for the audience. The recording of the two officially ended. On the way back to the dressing room to change into regular clothes, I ran into the Rockets who were returning home from get off work. When they saw the two of them, the girls bowed and greeted them in various ways. "Hello, hello," Qi Long called out their names one by one: "Hey, are you interested in fitness? Dongqiang is planning to do a fitness program on his own media!" Dong Qiang heard Qi Long say that and pulled him: "People need their agent's permission to participate in the show!" "Of course they can. I hope Teacher Qi and Teacher Gao can guide them more!" An agent jumped out and said excitedly. Who are these two? On the surface they are crosstalk performers, but in fact they are artists of Waner Group, an entertainment company that is currently making successful shows in China. Dongqiang is the young boss, and Qilong is the idea provider for many variety shows. If you build good relationships with them and show your variety sense, you might be chosen to be a regular on some show.
Haven’t you seen that, “De Yun Dou Xiao She” made almost all the participating crosstalk actors famous, and “Extreme Men’s Gang” also made Zhang Yixing’s popularity soar. In the past, only people who were his fans knew him, but after participating in a show, he broke the circle and even passers-by knew him. why not? Dong Qiang hit Qi Long, just looking for trouble!
