Chapter 240 The Seventh Chapter of Night(1/2)

In the waiting area, the captains and members of the other two tribes subconsciously sat upright after hearing Jiang Yuan's name being announced.

After the fourth performance, apart from Jiang Yuan’s tribe, only Shi Zhongxian’s tribe and Peng Benqian’s tribe were left.

During this performance, Shi Zhongxian’s tribe and Peng Benqian’s tribe had a somewhat alliance-like relationship.

Because in the previous draw, in the second round of the arena battle, the two tribes became the attackers. As long as one party gets more votes in the second round than the Jiang Yuan tribe, a family seat can be locked in advance.

At the last performance, the atmosphere became much more intense, and everyone wanted to win more seats for their tribe.

This round of the captain's extra points show has not even started yet, and Peng Benqian's expression has already turned serious.

Among the three captains, Jiang Yuan and Shi Zhongxian are both professional singers, and their singing skills are obviously much better than his.

Especially Jiang Yuan, who was the first to appear, put a lot of pressure on Peng Benqian.

After all, Peng Benqian also sees Jiang Yuan's performance in every performance, and his competitiveness is indeed very strong.

In the studio, the audience's eyes lit up when they heard Jiang Yuan's name.

"Did Jiang Yuan actually appear so early?"

"Jiang Yuan is actually the first one to appear today. I looked at the previous repo and every time I wait for Jiang Yuan, I have to wait for a long time."

"It's so profitable, it's actually the captain's personal show."

"I don't know what kind of music style it will be, but I feel like Jiang Yuan can handle many styles!"

"It doesn't matter what his style is, just Jiang Yuan's face, style doesn't matter!"

"It's true, I heard that Jiang Yuan is much more beautiful in person than on TV!"

As soon as Qi Yi finished speaking, it was as if a bomb had been dropped into the studio, and the audience was buzzing for a while.

Lu Qingge stood in the audience with his friends. Hearing the discussion around him, the corners of his mouth raised slightly. He did not expect that it would be Jiang Yuan's turn to come on stage so early.

Qi Yi held the card and waited for the noisy sound to fade away before continuing, "Captain Jiang Yuan, please give us a personal singing stage - "The Seventh Chapter of the Night"!"

Qi Yi announced the title of the song in a measured tone. Jiang Yuan packed up his equipment and walked towards the stage under the guidance of the staff.

The song "Chapter 7 of the Night" can be regarded as a rap song that mentions Jay Chou, so one song cannot be avoided.

The lyrics of the entire song are based on "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" as a clue. It can be said that every sentence is coherent. In the early years, he even invested four million yuan to go to the UK to shoot a music video specifically for this song.

Two weeks ago, Jiang Yuan opened this song from the treasure chest, a perfect piece of music.

Jiang Yuan didn't hide it, and immediately prepared to perform it in Wugong.

The audience in the studio were a little confused when they heard the title of the song, but they knew it was a new song as soon as they heard the title, so it didn't stop everyone from cheering and screaming.

In the boiling atmosphere in the studio, the lights went out and the performance officially began.

Because it is a rare one-man show on the stage of "Beyond the Troubles", in terms of stage design, Jiang Yuan simply sent the music video script to the program team before, thinking about whether it could be reproduced on the stage.

Of course, it was eventually rejected, but the program team still adopted some elements.

As soon as the lights came on, the audience couldn't help but scream.

The foreground of the stage was impressively decorated with a murder scene, a cordon, a dummy corpse, and various marked evidence.

As soon as the curtain is lifted, this scene is revealed, and the impact is obviously not small.

In the backstage waiting hall, Peng Benqian's face became more solemn when he saw the scene on the stage.

The prelude of the song sounded simultaneously at the moment of the stage appearance, and the playing of celesta and violin added a sense of mystery and suspense to the stage setting.

Then the addition of cello and string section created a sense of grandeur.

As the accompaniment appeared at the same time, there was also the tapping sound of the typewriter. Only then did the audience see that beyond the foreground of the stage, the back half was decorated as a study room.

Jiang Yuan was wearing a suit vest and woolen trousers with his back to the audience, his hands were tapping on the typewriter, and there was a lit pipe on the table.

As Jiang Yuan tapped, writings continued to appear on the big screen on the stage.

"It all started on that cold winter night, the thin air, the blue roses..."

From this moment on, the audience has entered the stage setting.

Backstage, Peng Benqian opened his mouth subconsciously, feeling that the exquisiteness of the stage seemed to be beyond his imagination.

In the studio, the rolling timpani seemed to herald the official start of the drama, and Jiang Yuan stopped typing.

The string music disappeared and was replaced by the bass of the synthesizer. Jiang Yuan turned slightly sideways and put on the coat hanging aside.

For this performance, music critics were still invited to the venue.

Chen Hai was already extremely excited after just listening to this prelude. The entire prelude was played in the style of classical music.

Coupled with this stage, the texture of the entire music is directly full.

After a slight pause in the prelude, Jiang Yuan put on his hat, turned around, picked up the rhythm of the snare drum, and started singing.

"1983, alley, sunny December"

"In the seventh chapter of the night, the typewriter continues to push the next line closer to the truth..."

Jiang Yuan entered the "evil scene" on the stage while singing.

As soon as the rap part started, many viewers were amazed.

With the support of multiple skills, Jiang Yuan's rapping tone and pronunciation are very pleasant to the ear. Coupled with the narrative nature of his voice and the lyrics that are full of narrative, the audience suddenly has the illusion of the opening of a movie.

"The mist from the heather pipe floats towards the withered trees, crying to me silently."

"In the circular square next to Baker Street, on the arm of the knight in armor, the emblem of fleur-de-lis shines slightly."

Jiang Yuan sang while walking around the "evil scene".

According to the music critic, Chen Hai has already started to move his head to the rhythm of the song.

Chen Hai actually doesn’t listen to rap music very often.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But the melodic rap like "The Seventh Chapter of the Night" still captured his ears immediately.

And what Chen Hai likes very much is that during Jiang Yuan's singing, the rap part fits very well with the accompaniment of the entire song, and every position is clicked just right, making it very comfortable to listen to.

"The sound of the driverless carriage, the late-night visit, the evil under the moonlight of Victoria, the bloody opening"

"The missing pistol, the blackened cane, the melted wax statue"

Jiang Yuan's rapping is like part of the arrangement itself, which is the focus of Chen Hai's attention.

The focus of the audience's attention was the singing and Jiang Yuan's performance on the stage.

On the stage, Jiang Yuan was singing and pacing slowly, like a detective investigating the scene.

The lyrics are sung in the form of rap, paused and orderly. Although the audience has difficulty understanding the meaning, they have an inexplicable feeling of watching a detective movie and the mystery is being revealed bit by bit as Jiang Yuan sings.

"Who is not present, on the jewelry box, the illusion of symbols"

"Contradictions lead to the dead end he piled up, the evidence is perfectly buried, and the corners of the mouth that mock Scotland Yard are raised."

Jiang Yuan sang, stopped looking at the evidence, stood in the center of the stage, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

The expression on his face that he was confident of winning was like a detective who had already figured out the truth of the incident before anyone knew what happened.

This scene also made some viewers in the audience couldn't help but scream.

Jiang Yuan's appearance is already extremely lethal, not to mention the detective appearance at this moment, coupled with such a smile.

Different from Jiang Yuan's usual appearance, he has a sense of being a detective who is both good and evil.

Conflicting temperaments appear in the same person, and Jiang Yuan's already ridiculously good looks are once again added points.

Even Lu Qingge in the audience couldn't help but lose consciousness for a moment.

Lu Qingge's friend even said directly, "He is indeed handsome!"

In the backstage hall, He Jing looked at this scene and felt very excited.

As a director who was about to collaborate with Jiang Yuan, he couldn't wait to see Jiang Yuan's outstanding acting skills on stage.

"The Temptation of Going Home" suddenly became even more tempting.

On the stage, after the rap part ended, the stage lights changed into a more psychedelic dark light.

Under the dim light, Jiang Yuan's expression changed again and he began to sing the chorus.

The chorus of this song was originally a female voice, but at this time it was a solo show and could only be performed by Jiang Yuan himself.

And Jiang Yuan’s vocal range is already wide, so singing the chorus is no problem.

"If evil is a gorgeous and cruel music,

I will write its ending with my own hands."

From the rap to the chorus melody, Jiang Yuan's singing has a gorgeous feeling, which adds a lot of drama to the whole performance.

Under the singing of the chorus, there is also a rap part recorded in advance by Jiang Yuan.

"So justice is a deep and helpless melancholy,

Then I will light up, the glimmer of light in the ashes..."

The gorgeous melody and rap intertwined, giving a sense of dialogue and echo, which made Chen Hai extremely excited.
