"Half-open mic" is a form of "lip-syncing"?
The reporter delved into the details of the song "Beauty Retouching".
Can "Semi-open Microphone" and "Pad Tone" really be classified as lip-syncing?In the ** world, this issue is still controversial.
The reporter got in touch with Wang Yong, an experienced ** family, and in the recording studio, Wang Yong showed such ** scenes as "half-open mic" (i.e., "pad sound") and "full open mic" (i.e., "real singing").
The reporter observed that under the same accompaniment conditions, the beauty of the "half-open microphone" is significantly better than the effect brought by the "full open microphone". In the interview, the reporter found that the singing style of "Half Open Microphone" is more casual and free, which is inseparable from the singer's understanding of the lyrics. Wang Yong also mentioned that in the "half-open microphone" mode, the singer's concert is more relaxed.
Wang Yong shared that thanks to the skill of "semi-open microphone", the performance of many singers is not inferior. For the more outstanding professional singers, they can reach a very high level, whether it's standing in a fixed position or adding some simple dancing in the middle to create a stage effect. Many rock and dance singers choose this method to avoid breathlessness. ”
However, throughout the process of opening the mic, the singer's basic skills were greatly challenged. If you are not careful, singing problems such as "broken sound" may occur. Wang Yong explained to reporters that the live sound repair of the concert is not a secret, and its purpose is to improve the quality and tone of the sound, so as to obtain a better listening experience. However, the half-open microphone is like "technology and ruthlessness" at the concert, "like a 'beauty refinement' for the sound, which is actually very far from the original sound." ”
However, Wang Yong holds the view that even if it is only half-open, this does not meet the professional requirements of singers. He believes that "any form of non-real singing is disrespectful to the profession, because concerts mainly sell 'real singing'".
Wang Yong explained that if the occasion of the singing is a non-profit event such as the Spring Festival Gala, then it is acceptable to use the "half-open microphone" method, because in this situation, ensuring the audience's sensory satisfaction is the most important, and the singer will not profit from it. ”
"In fact, no matter how well the singer behaved at the time, when he showed himself sincerely in front of the audience, he would appear more endearing and respectful to his fans," Wang said.

How to clarify the definition of "lip-syncing"".
Professional creators hold different points of view.
Regarding the "lip-syncing" incident, some experts in the industry believe that the "half-open microphone" is just a "technical strategy" to ensure that the performance achieves a perfect effect.
The young singer-songwriter Wang Zhuoyu explained to ** that the existence of lip-synching depends on the ratio of "half-open mic" to "fully open-mic", although this ratio has not yet been determined, we can't simply call it lip-synching.
In fact, the "mat sound" and "semi-open microphone" that have appeared at concerts are not new to recent years. "It's like there's no air without ** in a concert, so I think it's also an art form. Wang Zhuoyu pointed out that the phenomenon of "cushion sound" is very common, especially among singers who sing and dance, and they consume a lot of physical energy when singing. In order to ensure the effectiveness of the performance, they need to carry out a proper "pad sound."
In Wang Zhuoyu's point of view, the key to judging whether a singer is "fake singing" is to judge from his personal motives. He believes that "if the whole audience just holds the microphone and lip-tunes, and only works without putting in the effort, then this kind of lip-synching in order to make money should be severely punished." ”
However, with the further development of the *** incident, the two ** people expressed concern about the possible singing environment in the future. They believe that in the future, there may be singers who deliberately record some "flawed" versions to confuse the scene, make it more realistic and realistic, and also increase the difficulty of verification. ”
In order to protect their rights and interests, the audience can choose to "refund one and pay three" or pay the travel expenses.
Lawyers say there is an urgent need for a definition of "lip-synching".
When a singer is suspected of lip-synching at a concert, how should we protect our rights and interests, and how can we collect evidence?
Hou Yanping, a lawyer at Shanghai Duan & Duan (Zhengzhou) Law Firm, said in an interview with reporters: "We bought tickets as an audience, and the performance company provided us with performance services, so we signed a service contract with the performance company. ”
Hou Yanping pointed out that if the audience is willing to pay a high fee for live singing services, then if the live singing is wrongly judged to be fake singing, then the services provided by the performance company will be considered fraudulent. Therefore, the performance company shall compensate the consumer in accordance with the punitive damages clause of refund and compensation of three as stipulated in the Consumer Rights Protection**. ”
In terms of evidence collection, Hou Yanping pointed out that both the Regulations on the Administration of For-profit Performances and the Detailed Rules for the Implementation of the Regulations on the Administration of For-profit Performances have clear provisions: "The organizer of the performance must appoint special personnel to supervise the performance and performance, and make detailed records for future reference." These records should include the names of the actors, bands, and repertoire, as well as the basic information of singing and playing, and need to be signed by the person in charge and supervisor of the performance organizer. ”
"If the audience has conclusive evidence, they can submit it to the relevant authorities, but if they can't obtain useful evidence, then the issue can be handed over to the administrative department for supervision, discovery and management," Hou said. "Although the organizers will provide live singing and performance records, Hou Yanping still hopes that the relevant departments can pay enough attention to it and formulate detailed standards for the definition of 'fake singing' as soon as possible, so that the audience can better participate in the supervision. ”
In addition, Hou Yanping made a suggestion that consumers can seek help from consumer associations. According to Article 47 of the Consumer Rights and Interests Protection of the People's Republic of China, any act that infringes upon the legitimate rights and interests of a large number of consumers shall be subject to legal proceedings by the China Consumers' Association and its consumer associations established in provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government.
According to the statistics released by the China Performance Industry Association, in the first three quarters of this year, a total of 1,137 performances were held at large-scale conferences and festivals, attracting 11.45 million spectators, and the average proportion of cross-city performances has exceeded 60%. This shows that the love and enthusiasm of the people in the interior of our country for ** is unprecedentedly high. Especially in the next six months, Hong Kong and Taiwan celebrities like Jay Chou, Lin Junjie, Zhang Shaohan and Zhang Xinzhe also plan to hold their concerts in Chinese mainland.
Controversy over "lip-syncing" has arisen repeatedly.
However, instances of penalties are infrequent.
As for the regulations on the management of lip-syncing, as early as 2009, the relevant administrative departments have issued the "Regulations on the Administration of Commercial Performances". The ordinance clearly states that lip-to-play and lip-synching refer to the use of pre-recorded songs or pieces of music by actors in place of live singing and performance during a performance.
In addition, in September this year, the "Notice of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism and the Ministry of Public Security on Further Strengthening the Standardized Management of Large-scale For-profit Performance Activities and Promoting the Healthy and Orderly Development of the Performance Market" clearly pointed out that the management departments and comprehensive law enforcement agencies of the cultural and tourism market must strengthen on-site inspections of large-scale performance activities, carefully check the information of actors and the content of performance programs, strictly prohibit unauthorized alteration of actors and performance content, and strictly prohibit illegal acts such as fake singing and fake performance.
However, the reporter observed that since the promulgation of the "Regulations on the Administration of Commercial Performances", cases of entertainers who have been punished for lip-syncing are actually quite rare.
The first lip-syncing incident dealt with by law enforcement agencies occurred in 2009 at Huang Shengyi's "My Most Popular This Year" concert, which was hailed as the most lip-synching in the country.
According to the disclosure of the "Today's Statement" program, experts from the Marketing Department confirmed after appraisal that the two singers, Fang Ziyuan and Yin Youcan, had no signal on the microphone track during their singing, which confirmed that they used pre-recorded songs instead of live singing, which is a kind of lip-synching. In the end, singers Fang Ziyuan and Yin Youcan, who participated in the lip-syncing activity, were each fined 50,000 yuan, and the organizers of the concert were also punished accordingly.
So far, the relevant management departments are still evaluating the audio and audio materials of the concert. While we look forward to the final findings, we also hope that the public figures in general will take responsibility for themselves and their fans. True love means giving on both sides, and only by respecting each other can we go further.
