Chapter 626: Second Place Again
"The movie is average, but the theme song is really nice." Jessica Jung gave her own evaluation.
Han Hyo Joo searched for the original singer on her phone and played it directly out loud.
Lin Xiangyu had never heard of this song either.
[I hear the raindrops falling on the green grass, and I hear the bell ringing in the distance~]
This song is not long, only four minutes and twenty-three seconds.
It’s indeed a very nice song.
"It's difficult to cover such a beautiful song." Lin Xiangyu couldn't help but say.
It is not easy to cover a song like this, as the original version is already very nice.
"Do you think I can't sing this song well?" Jessica Jung stared at Lim Sang Woo.
"That's not the case, I just think it's more difficult to sing a cover." Lin Xiangyu shook his head.
"You don't know how to sing, but I have already prepared the arrangement. Just wait to see my performance tonight." Jessica Jung said somewhat cockily.
She is very confident in herself.
Lin Xiangyu lowered his head and looked up the song on the Internet.
This song is the theme song of a movie from Taiwan.
This movie has just been released in mainland China for less than a month.
The movie performed well.
As for the theme song, it seems to be quite popular as well.
It can only be said that Jessica Jung was very courageous to choose to cover this song at this time.
However, the music producer that Jessica Jung found in China is also a very capable producer. Lin Xiangyu estimates that even if he can't surpass the original singer, it shouldn't be too bad.
Looking at Jessica Jung who was happily teasing Lin Han and Lin Zhou, Lin Xiangyu could only wish Jessica Jung good luck in his heart.
In the end, the two still did not bring their two children to the recording site of the show.
After all, the two children are still young, and if they start crying at the scene, no one can do anything about it.
So the two children were left at home, and Zhang Yunxian, who was a little more familiar with the two children, and a female assistant from Jessica Jung's management team stayed at the villa to take care of the two children.
Since Zhang Yunxian often follows Lin Xiangyu, the two children are familiar with him.
But he was a rough guy after all, without a girlfriend or children, so he kept a female assistant with children here.
This female assistant has been following Jessica Jung for many years, since Jessica Jung debuted.
After settling the children, Lim Sang-woo and Han Hyo-joo did not rush to the program recording site.
Jessica Jung needs to rehearse first when she goes there.
As for the rehearsal, Han Hyo Joo wants to go and watch it.
But Lin Xiangyu didn't think it was necessary.
The rehearsal time is too long. If you watch the rehearsal and the performance together, you have to sit there for several hours.
Last time he and Yoona sat for so long that their buttocks became numb.
There's no need to go so early.
Han Hyo Joo was successfully persuaded by Lim Sang Woo, and the two did not follow Jessica Jung to the program recording site in advance.
Jessica Jung watched the two of them get into another car, and in her heart she complained about them, calling them "bastards". She worked so hard, but they came to China for a date.
Damn it! !
This is not the first time Han Hyo Joo has come to Changsha.
She had come to Changsha before to promote movies.
"The Watchers" was also released in China, and the box office revenue was over 200 million, which was a pretty good result at the time.
After all, this movie is a remake of a movie from Hong Kong, China. A remake of a movie can have a box office of over 200 million, which is indeed very good.
Han Hyo Joo and Lim Sang Woo strolled around here for a few hours and had dinner outside.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Lin Xiangyu and Han Hyo Joo rushed to Mango TV together.
Led by the staff, the two went to the recording site of the program.
Because the first episode had not been aired yet, except for some staff members at the "I Am a Singer" site, no one knew that Lin Xiangyu had come to the singer's site to watch the performance.
The two of them sat in the same seat where they watched the performance last time, feeling so comfortable.
Looking at the host Hacken Lee walking onto the stage, Lin Xiangyu whispered to Han Hyo Joo and introduced him.
"I seem to have seen him. When "The Watchers" was released in Hong Kong, he seemed to have attended the premiere." Han Hyo Joo said, looking at Hacken Lee on the stage.
"It should be him. He is a very famous singer in Hong Kong." Lin Xiangyu nodded.
After Li Keqin came on stage, he also greeted the audience first.
Then he introduced the first guest who would be performing today.
"Which performance is Sooyeon's?" Han Hyo Joo asked Lim Sang Woo curiously.
"I don't know. I didn't ask her. Anyway, there are only a few of them. Let's see one by one."
Lin Xiangyu replied.
"If you want to know, I can ask."
"No need, just watch it like this." Han Hyo Joo just asked casually.
The first performer in the second episode was Xu Jiaying, another young female singer.
The song she performed was a song called "Practicing Love".
Neither Lim Sang-woo nor Han Hyo-joo have heard this song.
“This singer is amazing.”
When the other party came out, Lin Xiangyu whispered to Han Hyo Joo.
Han Hyo Joo nodded slightly.
Xu Jiaying came on stage, smiled at the audience, and began to build up emotions casually.
"Why should I be disappointed~taste the tears to my heart~"
Xu Jiaying's first two sentences made most of the audience sit up straight.
Xu Jiaying’s expression in the first episode was very good.
But the problem is that the first episode hasn’t been aired yet, and most viewers still don’t know her.
If you don’t know her, you can only understand her through her singing.
Han Hyo Joo also nodded subconsciously.
Sounds good!
"The past doesn't lie, don't make it difficult~"
"There's no need for this between the two of us."
"I think."
"Practice the sadness of love, learn to let go of the desires of the past, how difficult it is to forget our beliefs~"
"Appreciation from a distance, confusion from a close distance. Who says the sun will find the moon~"
"We can't imitate the love that others have~"
"Practicing the joys and sorrows of love ~ Our efforts are not simple ~"
"It is a kind of courage to turn happiness into tears~"
"Fantasy from a few years ago, forgiveness from a few years ago."
"To recover from injuries for a face, don't tell me you miss me, I can't stand it~~~"
The first verse ended and there was a warm cheer from the audience.
Everyone was conquered by Xu Jiaying's singing.
Han Hyo Joo turned her head and looked at Lim Sang Woo beside her.
“I feel like some of the lyrics on Hua Xia’s side are really interesting and very emotional to listen to.”
"That's normal. After all, Chinese has been used in China for thousands of years, and the cultural heritage is here." Lin Xiangyu replied with a smile.
“This song feels like it’s about regrets in relationships.”
Han Hyo Joo sighed.
"Well, there must be a very sad story behind this song." Lin Xiangyu agreed.
Xu Jiaying's performance is over.
Lin Xiangyu took out his mobile phone and searched the song "Practice Love" on the Internet.
Singers are not allowed to bring mobile phones to the recording site.
But this is not allowed and it depends on the person.
Ordinary audiences are definitely not allowed to bring in mobile phones.
For a special audience like Lin Xiangyu, there is absolutely no problem in bringing in a mobile phone.
Lin Xiangyu quickly found out the details of the song "Practicing Love".
The original singer of this song is the famous Chinese singer JJ Lin.
The background of the creation of this song is: when JJ Lin was 16 years old, an Indonesian Chinese girl confessed to him and took the initiative to send breakfast to his home every day, but JJ Lin did not feel that kind of "electric shock" for her, so he declined her kindness. Although they did not become lovers, they became good friends. She also introduced JJ Lin to his first love at the time, but JJ Lin and his first love dated for a few months and ended abruptly. In 1997, this female friend boarded a fatal flight. The plane disintegrated in the air and no crew members or passengers survived.
“I read the newspaper the next day and saw her name on the list of victims. I also saw my own photo clearly among the photos of relics.” JJ Lin found it hard to accept the sudden accident and he has kept this memory to himself and never mentioned it to anyone.
"I was too young at the time, I didn't know how to express that kind of emotion, and I didn't dare to face it." JJ Lin said when he released the album of this song. (This is not a random post, the real background of the creation of this song is like this.)
A very touching story.
After reading it, Lin Xiangyu handed the phone to Han Hyo Joo.
After reading the background of the creation of this song, Han Hyo Joo was silent for a long time.
"What do you think this song is expressing?" Han Hyo Joo was silent for a moment and then asked.
"It should be about the regrets in love." Lin Xiangyu thought for a while and answered.
"But it says here that he doesn't like the other person."
"This does not affect his expression of regret about this matter." Lin Xiangyu said with a smile.
"Maybe he wrote this song just to miss that person?"
"Oh"
Han Hyo Joo was still a little dazed when she looked at the background of the song.
As a woman, she could relate to this story.
I introduced my friend to the boy I liked, and they ended up becoming boyfriend and girlfriend.
How sad must this girl be feeling?
But even so, the other party still had a photo of the boy in her wallet until she died in an accident.
This kind of story is really unpleasant to read.
"The next performer is our youngest singer, Jessica Jung."
When Hacken Lee introduced Jessica Jung, he also used the terminology used in the peninsula.
When Han Hyo Joo heard that Jessica Jung was going to perform, she looked up and returned Lim Sang Woo's phone to him.
Lin Xiangyu took his phone and sent a message before putting it in his pocket.
Jessica Jung is wearing something more youthful today, dressing like a girl of about 17 or 18.
But it is indeed eye-catching.
Jessica Jung herself is actually not very old, she is only 26 years old this year.
"I hear the raindrops falling on the green grass, and I hear the bell ringing in the distance~"
Unlike Lala Hsu, as soon as Jessica Jung opened her mouth, her fans started cheering as soon as she looked up.
She also has many fans in China.
"But I didn't hear your voice, seriously, calling my name~"
"When I fell in love with you, I didn't understand love. It was only after we parted that I felt it was unforgettable."
"Why didn't I realize that meeting you is the best thing in life~"
Even Han Hyo Joo has to admit that Jessica Jung's voice is really great.
The original version is very nice.
But because of the different timbre and singing style, Jessica Jung's cover is indeed unique.
"Maybe I was too busy smiling and crying, too busy chasing shooting stars in the sky."
"People naturally forget who has been silently guarding the place in the wind and rain~"
During the upcoming chorus, Jessica Jung also glanced directly towards Lim Sang Woo and Han Hyo Joo.
Of course, the main focus is still on Lin Xiangyu.
"It turns out that you are the luck that I want to keep the most. It turns out that we were so close to love~"
"The decision to fight the world for me, the rain that accompanied me~"
"Every scene is of you, with your pure and sincere heart~"
"I'm so lucky to meet you~"
"But I have lost the right to shed tears for you~"
"I hope you spread your wings in the sky where I can't see you~"
"She is destined to meet you, how lucky she is~"
After Jessica Jung's performance, the audience gave her warm applause, and the applause was obviously much louder than that for Lala Hsu just now.
"melodious."
Han Hyo Joo also gave her affirmation.
"Xiu-yeon's voice is a real plus."
“Indeed, she has a really great voice.”
“I’m already looking forward to her solo album.”
Han Hyo Joo said with a smile.
"Then you probably have to wait a while. Her album will be released at least in the second half of next year." Lin Xiangyu replied with a smile.
"The song isn't finished yet?"
"There are still two songs left, but the MV hasn't been filmed yet. Mainly because there are some things that need to be done with the MV filming."
"Did you listen to the songs she finished?"
"Yes, I heard it."
"How about it?"
"They all sound good, and the lyrics are pretty good too. Jessica Jung usually looks cheerful, but when she writes lyrics, she is really serious."
"You've known her for so many years, haven't you gotten used to it yet?"
Lin Xiangyu smiled and shook his head.
After Jessica Jung comes Guan Zhe.
Then came Zhao Chuan, Xin, Hacken Lee, Haya Band, and the last one was Coco Lee.
Among these performances, the song "Hostage" sung by Xin left the deepest impression on Lin Xiangyu.
However, the final result of this song was not very good.
What impressed Han Hyo-joo the most was the cover of "First Love Experience" by Zhang Zhenyue sung by Coco Lee, who was the last to perform. She felt that the lyrics of the song were quite interesting.
After everyone's performance was over, Lim Sang-woo and Han Hyo-joo were not in a hurry to leave.
The two went to Jessica Jung's lounge and sat for a while, preparing to wait for the show recording to end and leave with Jessica Jung.
In the end, Jessica Jung ranked second again.
The song "Hostage" sung by Shin, which Lin Xiangyu likes very much, is only ranked seventh, which is almost at the bottom.
The first place is Coco Lee.
Lin Xiangyu was somewhat dissatisfied with this result.
He felt that the letter should not be ranked so low.
Jessica Jung, who won second place again, was naturally very happy.
The first time I got second place, it might be because I was lucky.
But after winning second place again, Jessica Jung felt that this was a testament to her strong abilities.
She was also very satisfied with her performance today.
