However, this song "Haidilao" is not a hot pot, but a song.
In April this year, Phoenix Legend participated in the recording of the 7th issue of Praise of Songs in Blue Station, and the selected songs were A Durian and Underwater.
This online celebrity ballad, once popular in all major channels, got the lowest 45 votes after Phoenix Legend's interpretation.
Who would have thought that this song "Underwater" landed and was mobilized by young people, which instantly set off a huge wave.
Up to now, other Phoenix Legend editions of Underwater have played more than 6,543.8+0.8 million, with nearly 6,543.8+0 million barrage, and the broadcast volume of the whole network has already exceeded 100 million.
Numbers alone may not be enough to explain the popularity of this song.
Tell an unknown episode.
When the audio of this song first appeared in Mile Mile in early April, it was arranged by Feng Fan and Hua Juan, old fans of Phoenix Legend. At that time, up was just out of fan mentality and did not seek official authorization.
Unexpectedly, in a short time, the number of songs watched almost soared:
1 10,000-5 million-8 million-1 10,000 ... Many people came to punch in for support.
After all, Lantai actually negotiated with the up owner to get this account.
This video instantly changed from "illegal" to "official".
Compared with the previous "infringement off the shelf", this wave of operation of Lantai should be said to be unprecedented.
It's all because this song "Underwater" is so real.
If the original Finding Nemo is about a man who is weak after being bitten by a black dog, then Phoenix Legend's version is full of redemption charm.
One sank to the bottom of the sea, and the other saw light at the bottom of the sea.
So netizens call this version of the play "underwater fishing".
There are many reasons for the explosion of Haidilao:
On the one hand, the original durian itself is very famous;
On the other hand, Tang Tian, a lyricist suffering from cancer, carefully adjusted the lyrics of the whole song. In the new version, "ashes" become "home" and "waves for blood" become "light shines on you". Those originally cold pictures, after modification, become full of temperature and hit people's hearts directly;
After all, the chorus was also Ling Hua's explosive interpretation. "Spring rain, Xia Chan Ming, tomorrow is a fine day. The autumn wind starts, the snowflakes are light, and the four seasons can't be seen on the seabed. " The fresh scenery and things in the lyrics are matched with Ling Hua's high-pitched voice, like a beam of dawn that pierces the night, dripping and comfortable;
After all, this is "Yo Yo" Ceng Yi. His Sanskrit rap is as steady as an old monk. As soon as the movement comes out, "the first person of Aka Cao Kou of CCTV brand" instantly becomes "Poseidon", full of healing feeling.
If you listen carefully, you will find the most sincere and powerful sentence of the whole song, "You ask me where the road will lead?" This road leads to me waiting for you "was sung by Ceng Yi.
This man is always like this, inadvertently ending the wonderful embellishment.
However, many people don't even know his name.
"Even if we don't have 20 years of friendship, we still have 20 years of yoyo."
At the tucao conference, Ceng Yi said this, which made everyone laugh.
It seems that Ceng Yi has always had a low sense of existence in Phoenix Legend. From Up on the Moon and I Come from the Grass to Moonlight on the Lotus Pond, there is the most dazzling national style.
Ceng Yi's appellations are "Brother Youyou", "Brother Oye" and "Stay".
Yun-peng Yue played with him in a joke, saying that Mulberry's "mulberry" was that Ceng Yi stood on a piece of wood and said "again";
Gong Linna joked that Ceng Yi is like the "appendix" in the human body, as long as it is not sick, it is good to hide it;
Li played a practical joke on his birthday. Only when Phoenix Legend is closed will people realize that there are actually two people in this group.
The artist thinks that Ceng Yi has no sense of existence. Forget it, passers-by will come to mend the knife.
On May 16 this year, Ling Hua and Ceng Yi met several aunts at a scenic spot. The aunts recognized Ling Hua at a glance and rushed to take photos with her.
As for Ceng Yi ... Oh, he was appointed as a photographer.
Because the aunts couldn't tell which one was "the man in Phoenix Legend" between Ceng Yi and her assistant, they later recognized it and couldn't name Ceng Yi.
In this situation, Ceng Yi laughed at himself: "What does it have to do with me to always say that songs are not good?" I only have a few words. "
Later, people got the impression that Phoenix Legend only needed to be "Ling Hua+any male".
But this is a complete misunderstanding. In fact, Ceng Yi's role in the combination should not be underestimated. Even to some extent, without Ceng Yi, there would be no Phoenix Legend today.
From 65438 to 0998, at that time, Ceng Yi and Ling Hua were household names in Shenzhen, but they were not Phoenix Legend at that time, just two ambitious young people.
Ling Hua comes from Ordos Prairie, and Ceng Yi was originally a home appliance repairman.
Ceng Yi was the music director of Golden Age, a Ling Hua record company. It was he who first saw Ling Hua and gave her the first stage.
In the 1990s, Guangdong's music scene was full of vitality, forming a pattern of "North-South competition" with Beijing.
The evening performance is a stage for many young people to show their talents.
At that time, Ling Hua played until two in the morning every night. After a short rest, she rehearsed from 3 am to 6 am, and then continued practicing at 2 pm the next day. In a month, at least one-third of the time is this day.
Ceng Yi is more tired than Ling Hua. When Ling Hua went home to wash up and quietly went online to play the legend, Ceng Yi was still playing this role the day before the resumption.
The key to their cooperation is a bowl of Guilin rice noodles.
Ceng Yi loves to eat, so does Ling Hua. Before the performance, a phone call and rice noodles were all in place. Long-winded, energetic, not tired of playing on the stage.
"At that time, I just wanted to sing and act." Ling Hua said.
Later, Ling Hua, Ceng Yi and another girl formed a band called Crazy, with Ceng Yi as the lead singer. Yes, you're right. Ceng Yi is the lead singer, and Ling Hua and another girl are the main singers and dancers.
Later, the girl was too tired to walk, so the group left Ceng Yi, Ling Hua, and Phoenix Legend was born?
No, this group is not called Phoenix Legend, but called "Cold Fire".
Ceng Yi shaved his head and wore sunglasses and earrings. He's cool.
Ling Hua is hot and passionate. She is a fire.
"Cool Fire" was just right (in fact, because they loved the Korean "Cool Dragon" group at that time)
In a blink of an eye, six years ago, a friend sent Ling Hua's samples and art photos to Peacock Records, and the company quickly chose to sign Ling Hua.
Ling Hua was pleasantly surprised when she learned about it. She asked Ceng Yi anxiously, and Ceng Yi answered her:
"Ling Hua, what do you want? I will accompany you after all. "
Soon, the two signed a contract together.
At this point in the story, Phoenix Legend was officially born.
Later, many people became familiar with the plot. Phoenix Legend went to Beijing with the tide of "Southern Yan returning to the North".
They took part in the Youth Song Contest and the Avenue of Stars, and finally became a hit with a song "Above the Moon".
In the "CRBT era", 79 million downloads were realized on the moon.
It can be said to be one of the earliest Divine Comedy in China.
"People like us feel inferior and don't believe in stories. There are three of us, I am a fisherman, Ceng Yi is a farmer and Ling Hua is a herdsman. How do you tell the bottom three people in our country about their ambitions? "
Two singers who didn't go to college, neither of us wants a story. In the artist circle, we belong to the nouveau riche. We always only hope that we have one policy, that is, to formulate and end the policy without any mistakes in the process. "
20 14, when the reporter interviewed Phoenix Legend's boss Xu Mingchao (also Ling Hua's husband), Xu Mingchao said this.
At that time, it was only one year before the most dazzling national style swept the world.
This song has been contracted by many uncles and aunts as the set music of square dance.
At that time, every morning, "the vast horizon is my love, and the flowers are blooming at the foot of the continuous green hills …" will follow the rising sun in Ran Ran and illuminate every corner of China. One fitness instructor even wrote a square dance course based on this song.
In the street, anyone can hum a few words.
Gradually, with their popularity, there are more and more styles.
At best, they are called "rural heavy metals", at worst, the word "soil".
For this kind of ridicule, Ling Hua once talked about such an assignment.
She said that a white-collar worker was listening to Phoenix Legend with headphones when he was squeezing into the subway. The earphone cord is connected to the mobile phone, which is put in her pocket and bumps with the train. Her body tripped and the earphone plug was separated from the mobile phone, and it was released in an instant. Everyone in the car knows that she is listening to Phoenix Legend.
"She said that at that moment, she felt particularly shameful." Every time Ling Hua talks about it, he flashes loneliness.
Say this song "underwater" singing scene, there is a mass evaluation, while prevaricating and pointing to the knife:
"Your song will be a little bit of fire and water in Jin Mu ... that."
Ling Hua blurted out directly and compensated: "Earth!"
But is Phoenix Legend really so rustic?
If you really think so, I suggest you listen to their recent interpretations of Walking into the Wine and Landscape Map.
Arranging is basically a power that even a mother can call.
As far as professional ability is concerned, Ling Hua's voice is very penetrating, with a super high range and a long singing span. Even in the high-pitched area, it is particularly commendable to maintain a strong chest sound ratio. Friends who like it can listen to her chorus with an idol girl group, which makes people just want to shout "light abuse";
Not to mention Ceng Yi, a perennial "representative of rap", played rap wildly in Above the Moon in 2005, which was 12 years earlier than the so-called "first year of hip-hop". Listening to him sing "Scenery of Mountains and Rivers", many different pronunciations, both in smell and rhythm, are very stable; Singing idol Leslie Cheung's "Side Face", even singing and dancing are unambiguous.
Phoenix Legend is sincere to the stage and the audience. Sometimes if the expenses given by the organizers are insufficient, they would rather pay for themselves than lower the standard.
It is this kind of two people who are labeled as "earth" without hesitation just because their uncles and aunts who dance in the square dance love their songs.
Since then, hard work is also "soil", and hard work is also "soil".
Some people pretend to "scoff" even if they like it.
Because it is politically correct, it is "hierarchical".
But is it fair to Phoenix Legend?
After "Underwater" came out of the circle, there were still people shouting "Successful promotion to junior college" on the barrage.
Actually, that's not very friendly.
We always want to see the success stories of ordinary people, but when such stories are really sent to us, we scoff, even scoff.
Perhaps this is the darkness and hypocrisy of human nature.
In fact, whether there is this song Fishing at Sea or not, Phoenix Legend is worthy of respect.
