Chapter 436: Su Dongpo’s Rhetoric

The guests were all confused and looked at each other.

Is Li Zhengyi crazy?

Zhao Lei asked tentatively: "Is there any secret in the lyrics of this song?"

Li Zhengyi chuckled: "Maybe many viewers think the lyrics of this song are a bit strange, not so plain and simple, but a bit of a pile of words, right?"

Some people in the audience nodded.

Li Zhengyi shook his finger and said surprisingly: "But I have to say that the lyrics of this song are a stroke of genius, which is completely worthy of the song."

The audience was stunned.

Didn't someone just say that the lyrics were average and were a pile of words? How could it be a stroke of genius?

Several guests looked at Li Zhengyi curiously, and the audience's eyes were also focused on him.

Shen Kaiwen smiled.

Before he came, Xu Nuo told him that others might not be able to see what the mystery of the lyrics was, but Li Zhengyi should be able to see it.

Sure enough, Li Zhengyi should be able to see it.

Looking at the eyes cast by everyone, Li Zhengyi felt very comfortable.

He looked around and glanced at the others, as if to say that you people are really uneducated.

Qi Tian asked: "Teacher Li, please tell us about it!"

Li Zhengyi smiled proudly: "Okay, let's look at the sentence "There are flowers with butterflies, and solitary geese can fly in pairs". This sentence looks beautiful and meaningful. Some people may say that it is suspected of piling up words, but this sentence actually borrows from the famous Song Dynasty poet Yan Jidao's "Fallen flowers, people stand alone, light rain, swallows fly in pairs." "

The guests pondered, and the audience was a little skeptical.

"Is it true or not? It doesn't sound like it?"

"Is it too far-fetched?"

"Hey, Li Zhengyi likes to over-interpret it, and he has to say it is true even if it is not."

Everyone was discussing, and they didn't particularly agree with this statement.

Li Zhengyi looked at the audience who were discussing and smiled slightly: "Does anyone think it's a bit far-fetched?"

The guests didn't say anything, and obviously thought so too.

Li Zhengyi smiled and said, "Then let's look at the next sentence, "Still picking all the cold branches and refusing to rest, with a little regret, who should I miss on the lonely sandbar?" Where does this sentence come from?"

Looking at the people in the guest seats and the whispering audience, Li Zhengyi felt extremely satisfied.

But after all, it was a live show, so he didn't keep it a secret and said directly, "These two sentences are from Su Shi's "Bosuanzi"."

As he said that, Li Zhengyi began to chant a poem.

"The waning moon hangs on the sparse toon, and the clock stops at the beginning of the day.

Sometimes I see a lonely person walking alone, with a misty shadow of a lone wild goose.

I get up and look back, with hatred but no one understands.

I pick all the cold branches and refuse to rest, the lonely sandbar is cold."

The lyrics directly use poetry, and it is Su Shi's poetry.

The person who was still criticizing the lyrics for piling up words and nonsense was suddenly silent.

The person who scolded "Lonely Sandbar" for being hypocritical and incomprehensible was embarrassed to scratch his toes.

This matter seems like it, but it is not outrageous in fact.

Although Su Shi is famous, "Bosuanzi" is not ranked among his works. It is not taught in the textbooks, so it is normal that you have not heard of it.

It doesn't matter if you don't understand it, but it is a bit ignorant to say these few sentences with piled words.

In fact, there are more outrageous things. The country has been promoting nine-year compulsory education for so many years, and some people don't even know Li Qingzhao and Li Shangyin.

For example, the song "Do You Know?" was once criticized for piling up words and nonsense.

And Li Shangyin was even suspected of plagiarizing the lyrics.

These fish that slipped through the net made a lot of jokes: "Li Shangyin, an unpopular poet, is not as good as Qu Zhengze, comparable to Lin Xi and Su Dongpo, not as ancient as Cao Xueqin, Liu Sanbian's lyrics are not very good, Li Bai is a little artificial, and Li Qingzhao's words are piled up."

Whether it is on Earth or on the blue planet, there are countless fish that slip through the net.

Whether it is Yue Fei or Su Shi, in the eyes of some people, they are not as good as their idols.

Fortunately, although some of the audience members were not well educated, they were not so ignorant of Su Dongpo and Yan Jidao.

As soon as Li Zhengyi opened his mouth, he immediately extinguished all the little doubts.

Looking at the people who were talking, Li Zhengyi raised his hand and stroked his beard, smiling contentedly: "When Nuoyan writes songs, he always likes to find inspiration from ancient poems, such as "Last Night's Book" and "When Will the Bright Moon Appear", and every time, he can perfectly combine poems with melody. This song "Lonely Sand Island Cold" is also another attempt of his."

No one noticed Shen Kaiwen's expression on the stage.

After he knew the source of the lyrics of this song, he excitedly expressed whether he should recite such a poem on the stage, which would be full of style.

Xu Nuo told him that it was very likely that he would not have the opportunity to recite this poem himself.

Shen Kaiwen was puzzled and expressed doubt.

Xu Nuo told him that Li Zhengyi should be able to recite this poem if his identity as a master of lyrics and music was not in vain.

At first, Kevin Shen was skeptical, but now he is completely convinced.

This ability to read people is terrifying, and he predicted Li Zhengyi's reaction early.

Kevin Shen felt a little regretful at first, but then he thought that Li Zhengyi's reading of this poem was much better than his own.

It can be seen from the audience's exclamations of enlightenment and the renewed applause.

Li Zhengyi finished his lines, and Kevin Shen could only hum and ah to express his agreement.

The other contestants were cursing Li Zhengyi in their hearts, saying that his tendency was too strong, so you might as well just vote for him!

After Kevin Shen left the stage, the remaining singers were full of energy, trying to break through the atmosphere created by Kevin Shen.

All fourteen singers finished singing, and the breakout competition also came to an end.

Qi Tian stood on the stage and watched the last contestant leave the stage.

"Thank you for the wonderful performances of all the contestants. Fourteen teachers, everyone sang very well, but unfortunately, this is a breakout competition. Only two of them can successfully advance to the finals and compete for the championship. Destiny is now in your hands."

The singers who just left the stage returned to the stage, and the fourteen people stood in order according to the order of appearance.

The camera gave the fourteen singers in turn.

The honest and simple lion king Shi Wen, the noble and generous white swan Han Qiwen, the melancholy and elegant Chen Zhiqiu, the plain-looking Kevin Shen...

Each of them performed well, who should be chosen?

"Later, please pick up your voting devices and cast the vote that will decide their fate. In addition, the breakout competition has opened the online voting mode. The online votes obtained by the contestants will be converted in proportion. The top two with the highest on-site votes plus online votes will receive tickets to the finals!"

The rules are a bit complicated, but everyone understands that the winner is not only determined by their votes, but also by the votes of netizens.

Amid the tense music, Qi Tian glanced at the time: "Please take out your voting devices and vote for your favorite performance! Countdown five minutes!"

The audience in the venue immediately became nervous and communicated with their companions with voting devices.

"I think the little monster sang very well."

"The lion king is also very good, especially heroic."

"Gardenia is really beautiful."

"Red Rose's dress amazed me, I voted for him."

Fourteen people made many people have difficulty in making choices. Everyone wanted to vote, but there was only one vote.

Who to vote for?

"I like Chen Zhiqiu's song "Missing a Deserted Name", which fits his experience very well. I vote for him!"

"Qiu Ge is invincible. He played guitar solo in the breakout competition. Who else can do it?!"

"Shen Kaiwen, the god who controls the licking dogs!"

"In the licking dog track, no one can beat Shen Kaiwen."

Time passed by, and many viewers made their choices.

The bar chart representing the number of votes for the fourteen people was divided into two colors, red for the live audience and blue for the online votes.

The number of votes for the contestants increased slowly.

Lion King, 5 votes on the live scene and 650,000 online votes.

Ugly Shen Kaiwen, 12 votes on the live scene and 890,000 online votes.

Vampire Chen Zhiqiu, 10 votes on the live scene and 960,000 online votes.

The number of votes for each person was different. Among them, Chen Zhiqiu and Shen Kaiwen were temporarily ranked seventh or eighth.

The atmosphere on the scene was very tense, and several singers couldn't help but whisper to each other.

"The breakout round is too difficult. There are five new songs and four composers. Everyone is trying their best to get a spot."

"Brother Qiu, you are a bit unfair. You even brought out the guitar solo."

"Kevin, you are a bit too much. You invited Su Shi and Yan Jidao."

"Fei Fei, you are not much better. This skirt must be very expensive, right?"

The voting time was a full five minutes. The contestants stood on the stage and chatted.

"Hey, you said that there are so many of us, but only two people can advance. After advancing, we have to compete with six singing kings. I am not sure!"

"I heard that there are several rounds in the finals, and we have to compete head-on. It is difficult to win the championship."

Several people chatted on the stage, looking back at the big screen from time to time.

The audience laughed: "The contestants only need to wait for the voting results on the stage, but the audience has a lot to consider!"

"Quick, take a calculator and calculate, how many votes do you need to advance?"

The complicated calculation method forced many people who missed the nine-year education to pick up the calculator and start to calculate carefully for their idols.

It can only be said that the power of idols is infinite. It is more difficult to ask him to endorse than to kill him. Ask him to calculate the ranking of idols, and he can instantly turn into Gauss.

The number of votes on the big screen kept rolling. Chen Zhiqiu's live votes were not high, but the online votes began to soar.

His fans mobilized and called on everyone to vote for him. The fan base accumulated over the years began to show its power at this moment.

Shen Kaiwen, on the other hand, had his good brother Yu Zhou call on his fans to vote for him at the first time.

The fourteen singers all have their own fan groups, and they have canvassed for their idols on the Internet.

The competition for online voting has entered a white-hot stage, and people in the audience have also made their own choices.

With two minutes left on the countdown, the atmosphere became more and more tense.
