Everyone criticized Huang Qishan, but in fact, they criticized the wrong object!
With the end of this year's Spring Festival Gala, as we all know, various evaluations from the audience have come as scheduled.
Yue Yunpeng's cross talk was accused of not having enough laughter, Shen Teng's sketches were criticized for his poor performance, and Bai Jingting was also criticized because of his position, and even the so-called "Chunshan Studies" discussion was even generated.
However, among all the criticisms, the controversy caused by the ending song "Unforgettable Tonight" sung by Huang Qishan is undoubtedly the most intense! But in fact, she is not the main person to bear these blames.
Come to the app and enjoy HD**.
In all fairness, Huang Qishan's "Unforgettable Tonight" did perform mediocre, and some netizens even sharply used eight words to describe her performance: head swing, exaggerated facial expression!
The song failed to move people's hearts, and the image failed to make people shine!
As a powerful singer, she failed to play to her strengths in this song, which was supposed to show a lyrical and gentle style, but highlighted her shortcomings. Therefore, it seems reasonable that she has been criticized.
This rewriting retains the core meaning of the original text, while using different words and sentence structures to ensure the originality and professionalism of the content. At the same time, the use of any non-compliant words is also avoided, and the use of easy-to-understand and incisive rhetorical devices is used as much as possible to meet the inclusion requirements.
However, everyone seems to have overlooked a key issue: although the performance of "Unforgettable Tonight" is indeed unsatisfactory, the biggest responsibility is not with Wong Yee Shan, but on the director team!
Everyone is actually wrong to blame Huang Qishan!
Why should the director team bear the main responsibility?
The failure of this performance, in short, was a combination of two bad choices: the wrong performer, and the wrong track!
However, was this a mistake by Wong Yee Shan? Not really! This was a mistake on the part of the director's team!
Recalling last year's Spring Festival Gala, Huang Qishan and Xilina Yigao sang a song full of emotion "It's a Mother, It's a Daughter", didn't it win widespread praise from the audience?
Why was Wong criticized just a year later?
At the end of the day, the reason is that the tracks that were chosen for her were not suitable for her!
Huang Qishan is not good at performing this song!
The original singer Li Guyi, with his gentle lyrical and full of aura, has sung this song for 40 years, and has become a classic symbol of the Spring Festival Gala. However, Wong was unsuccessful in continuing this tradition, leaving audiences disappointed with her performance.
In this case, even if you decide to change the singer, you should choose someone who is similar to the original singing style. In short, you need to find a singer with a strong appearance and a similar voice to ensure that the original song continues in style, rather than making subversive changes.
However, the result?
You unexpectedly chose Huang Qishan, a powerful singer who is known for her high voice but not generally favored in appearance. To make matters worse, you also made drastic adaptations of the songs. Such an operation undoubtedly broke the audience's expectations, and naturally attracted many criticisms.
Regarding Huang Qishan's appearance characteristics, singing strength and suitable song types, the Spring Festival Gala director team should have an in-depth understanding in advance.
Inviting her to perform at the Spring Festival Gala was a smart move, as evidenced by last year's successful collaboration.
However, it was a bad decision to let her sing the adapted version of "Unforgettable Tonight". The style of this song does not match Huang Qishan, and its adaptation is even more wrong, which undoubtedly destroys the classic charm of the song and makes Huang Qishan's singing seem out of place.
Therefore, we can clearly say that the main responsibility for this mistake lies with the director team, not Huang Qishan herself.
Imagine, if the director team of the Spring Festival Gala sends you an invitation to sing "Unforgettable Tonight", as a singer, how can you refuse? This is undoubtedly a great opportunity to showcase your talents.
Moreover, if you really refuse, wouldn't it seem a little impersonal and don't know how to cherish the opportunity?
Moreover, Huang Qishan's singing of "Unforgettable Tonight" has been rehearsed many times. The director team had seen her performance in previous rehearsals, but had not made any adjustments. This shows that they didn't see anything wrong at the time.
However, it is precisely because of this negligence and lack of timely adjustment that it leads to the awkward scenes that appear during the live broadcast.
So, we can safely say that the biggest responsibility for this mistake really lies with the director team.
Two lessons worth learning.
This incident has taught us two valuable lessons:
First of all, we should be in awe of the classics and avoid changing them at will.
This is a challenging task, with little chance of success, and the slightest mistake can undo it.
Secondly, even singers with outstanding strength have a range of tracks that they are good at, and not all songs can be mastered easily.
Take Huang Qishan as an example, she is undoubtedly a powerful singer. However, if she is asked to try to sing Yang Yuying's "Let Me Tell You Gently", I am afraid that the effect will be greatly reduced, and such an arrangement is obviously not appropriate.
