The Spring Festival Gala of the Year of the Dragon really opened the eyes of the audience, and the program was wonderful and improved a lot of reputation. In particular, Liu Qian's strong return directly pushed the atmosphere to a climax and left a deep impression.
However, after the Spring Festival Gala ended, singer Huang Qishan became the focus of hot searches, because her singing of "Unforgettable Tonight" was widely criticized, and some people even called it the biggest "mistake" in the Spring Festival Gala of the Year of the Dragon.
In addition to suffering from the "merciless ridicule" of netizens, even the director team was involved and questioned about the improper employment!
After all, the Spring Festival Gala was carried out in strict accordance with the rehearsal, and when this kind of problem occurred, the director team obviously ignored the audience's receptivity, and they could not escape the blame.
Over the years, although the program has been changing, "Unforgettable Tonight" stands on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala like an evergreen tree, which can be said to be the highlight of it.
What is the most important thing about the song "Unforgettable Tonight"? I believe everyone knows that it is undoubtedly a warm and peaceful mood for people to feel.
Therefore, netizens commented sharply: "Gu Yi has been making classics for ten years, and Qishan has ruined tonight!" ”
Is that really the case? Didn't the director team of the Spring Festival Gala and the singer himself reach the level they should have?
The main reason why Huang Qishan and the program team have become the focus of heated discussions among netizens is that they blindly pursue innovation and ignore objective facts. This behavior is not responsible for billions of viewers.
Although it can be seen at a glance that the intention of the program team is to make this year's Spring Festival Gala more dynamic and innovative, the audience can also feel the sincere intentions of the program team from other programs.
We Grew Up Watching Cartoons" This show has brought a wave of unforgettable "memory killing" to many viewers, especially for the post-90s and post-00s, who have unknowingly become the backbone of society.
They have grown up**, the **movies they used to watch are now a thing of the past, and most of them are struggling with real life.
Is the show innovative enough? The answer is yes, and most viewers have given it a good review without hesitation, raving about the show.
Why can't "Unforgettable Tonight" be recognized as soon as it is replaced? Why is the audience so disgusted with this work?
The director team did not take into account the audience's affordability, which is why the innovation of "Unforgettable Tonight" may be counterproductive. While innovation is good, it's not so for this film.
The meaning of "Unforgettable Tonight" has gone far beyond the scope of just a program, it carries the deep emotions of many audiences for the "Spring Festival Gala Feelings".
It not only represents the end of the Spring Festival Gala, but also represents the beginning of the new year, there are many viewers who stay in front of the TV and insist on staying up until late at night, just to listen to the song "Unforgettable Tonight", the number of them is incalculable.
The audience has regarded "Unforgettable Tonight" as a spiritual sustenance, and the director team has changed the program without authorization, doesn't this damage the softness in the audience's heart? It's no wonder that the audience isn't angry.
There is no doubt that art itself needs to be constantly innovated, otherwise it will be difficult to make great progress. However, for an art form that has already won public acceptance, it is not necessary to "add to the snake", otherwise it may lead to the result of four dissimilarities.
In any case, the director team was "smart but mistaken by smart" this time, which led to "Unforgettable Tonight" really becoming an unforgettable night, and netizens criticized it.
On the Internet, ** can be roughly divided into two camps: one is to blame the director team, and the other is to blame the singer himself.
Let's talk about the director team first, and some netizens directly named them: "Hundreds of millions of viewers ask the director to apologize to them!" ”
Although this netizen's rhetoric was a bit intense, it also revealed a fact, that is, the director team did deeply touch the hearts of the audience this time, otherwise the audience would not have such remarks.
The ridicule team also said: "Director Yu Lei should be rewarded for finding Huang Qishan among the 1.4 billion people." ”
I have to admit that the eloquence of netizens is really powerful, and their random comment can make people laugh, and there is another set of backwords.
Some people think that this is the responsibility of the director, but some people feel that the singer himself should be blamed, thinking that Huang Qishan should not appear on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala.
This netizen felt that Huang Qishan shook her head and sang too sadly, which was incompatible with the cheerful rhythm of the Spring Festival Gala, which was extremely disappointing.
For example, she thinks that Huang Qishan's song expression is too sad, which is incompatible with the joyful atmosphere of the Spring Festival Gala, which makes people feel very disappointed.
There are also people who think that an old singer should not make such a mistake, "Unforgettable Tonight" is sung for the global Chinese, but as a result, Huang Qishan disappointed all the global Chinese, which is intolerable.
Huang Qishan's singing style is obviously different from "Unforgettable Tonight", and the director team also makes people puzzled why she was chosen, it stands to reason that there should be a more suitable singer.
No matter how excited netizens were, they expressed their opinions without hesitation: "As long as someone says sorry to the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner of the people of the whole country, they should face the criticism honestly." ”
The beginning and end of the Spring Festival Gala should be exciting, not rushed. Take "Unforgettable Tonight" as an example, the director team and singers have failed the national audience. Although the words are not fluent enough, the meaning is still understandable.
Compared with the emotions of these netizens, some more objective netizens pointed out: "Huang Qishan's biggest problem is that she is not aware of her position. ”
Huang Qishan's own pursuit of ** is actually completely incompatible with "Unforgettable Tonight", which is one of the important reasons for the "overturn", which can be described as a word.
As we all know, Huang Qishan is very good at singing "bitter love songs", and her voice is definitely not suitable for the four words "Guotai Min'an", at most it can only be said to be soft and warm.
Some singers can interpret military songs full of passion and magnificence, some can sing playful and cute nursery rhymes, some can interpret soulful and moving folk songs, and some can also interpret euphemistic and beautiful love songs.
There is no doubt that Huang Qishan undoubtedly belongs to the tail of that type of singer, and her masterpieces "Life with You", "My Beauty", "Mother is a Daughter" ......Without exception, they all fall into this category.
Although "It's a Mother and a Daughter" expresses family affection, it still belongs to the category of lyrical songs, which requires a very high voice from the singer, and a soft enough voice can truly convey the inner feelings.
Huang Qishan sang "Unforgettable Tonight" on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, perhaps she thought that she had achieved her expected performance, but in fact, the audience did not approve of it.
The real criterion for judging art should be the feedback of the audience, not the singer himself. If a singer just wants to pursue the fulfillment of his inner world, this is understandable, but he should not perform on such an important stage as the Spring Festival Gala.
The Spring Festival Gala is not exclusive to one person, but belongs to all Chinese. There is no doubt that the first priority of all performers is to cater to a wide audience.
Taking the Spring Festival Gala as an example, niche ** such as rock and jazz rarely set foot on the stage. So, aren't they considered art?
Of course not, although they are extremely precious works of art, it seems inappropriate to display them at the Spring Festival Gala, because what the Spring Festival Gala needs is not too "personalized", but more "popular".
The audience of the Spring Festival Gala spans a wide range of ages, including all ages and genders, so the content of the program should be aimed at the majority of people, rather than catering to the tastes of only a few.
The show can only be called a real success if the vast majority of people approve of it, because the approval of a small percentage of people is not enough to give it meaning.
There is no doubt that the majority of the audience unanimously recognized the song "Unforgettable Tonight", which has become the final track of the Spring Festival Gala, and the audience has long been accustomed to it, so it does not need to be changed too much.
Even if the recognition is not high, it cannot become the "ending song" of the Spring Festival Gala for the past years, and this song should not be innovated.
Huang Qishan actually adapted Li Guyi's song "Sister Looks for Brother to Cry" in her early years, but the result was not satisfactory, and the song was changed to "unrecognizable".
Making the same mistake again in the Spring Festival Gala really shouldn't have happened.
Although Huang Qishan's performance in the Spring Festival Gala was not ideal, and it can even be said to be bad, this does not deny that she is an excellent singer.
Many netizens have heard the popular song "To the Clouds" in 2023, and the melodious singing and the rap of Ocean Bo are perfectly integrated, presenting an intoxicating "auditory feast" for the audience.
Huang Qishan's status in the music scene is undoubted, however, this Spring Festival Gala will label her as "out of place", and this label will accompany her for a long time.
Who is to blame for the mistake of "Unforgettable Tonight"? Is it the director team or Huang Qishan herself? What do you think about this?
What do you think about whether this kind of behavior is innovative or "adding to the snake"?
