Chapter 113 Becoming a God?
Although it has been almost a week since the singing competition, the competition is still highly discussed on the Internet.
On the night after the game ended, five articles related to Luo Quan were trending on Twitter. The one with the highest number of clicks was:
"God-level performance, the true version of "Unravel"!"
The video of Luo Quan singing on stage went viral on major websites in Japan. Many people exclaimed: "After decades, the Japanese music scene finally has another singer with peak strength and talent!"
Not to mention anything else, this live singing skill is enough to amaze the world.
There are many Internet celebrity singers on TikTok who want to gain popularity and cover this version of "Unravel", but there are not many who can do it without breaking the sound, and most of them have lowered the key, both in pitch and voice. The quality is far inferior to Luoquan.
Fans excitedly asserted online: "No one can cover this song!"
Not long after the huge popularity started in Japan, there was also a storm in China.
"Luo Quan's divine performance shocked the whole audience!"
The short message was prominently posted on Weibo’s hot search.
Even though she no longer has an account on Weibo, she can still be seen on hot searches from time to time.
As usual, the opinions in the comment area are still highly polarized. Those who like her are surprised by Luo Quan's magical singing skills, while those who don't like her feel that it is like a crazy woman shouting nonsense.
Then the war of words started again.
The same video has a completely different style on station B.
The comments and comments were all filled with wonder and admiration. In the past, they only knew that Luo Quan's singing skills were very stable and that he was on the same level live as in the recording studio.
Only now do I know that her singing skills can possess such terrifying tension and expressiveness, and her style is completely unique. There is no other singer like her in China or Japan.
Moreover, as the plot of the first season of Tokyo Ghoul is coming to an end, the evaluation of this anime has also changed from a bad reserve to a quasi-great show. The only difference is the final explosive point.
Compared with a month ago, the popularity of this anime from Station B’s Two Thorns Apes Team has completely taken a 180-degree turn. Quite a few anime UP owners have specially made videos for it to promote it to fans, and Its rating on Station B has also soared to 9.3, with up to 5 million followers and a total of 240 million views!
For such a popular anime, its OP has naturally gained the love of fans. Especially the lyrics of this song fit so well with the plot of the anime, as if it was tailor-made for it.
Many singers on Station B have released cover videos of this song, which have received a lot of clicks.
But after Luo Quan's "original version" video came out, even though Bilibili users regarded it as a god-level OP, there was not a single uploader who covered it.
The one with the most fans at Station B is a female Up host named Leng Niao. Her previous tender version of "Unravel" received more than two million plays. Fans praised her for singing a song that was different from the original singer Luo Quan. smell.
After the new version came out, Lengniao's fans left messages asking her to release a cover version.
Lengniao didn’t release a new video for two days, probably because she really wanted to cover this version in response to fans’ requests, but two days later she just posted a message on station B:
"I'm sorry fans, Goddess Luo's version of "Unravel" is too difficult. The tone from the verse to the chorus instantly spans two octaves, from alto to high mezzo-soprano, and it also has to be There are a lot of breathy sounds mixed in, and the transition between true and false sounds is so frequent. I tried it ten times, and the sound broke five times and I choked five times.
I even asked my senior sister for advice on this song. She said that this song is not something that ordinary people can sing. There are probably only five singers of Goddess Luo's age and level in China.
So I'm sorry, I can't cover this song, so just listen to the original version. "
As soon as this news came out, Lengniao’s fans were shocked:
"Leng Niaoren is a fourth-year student at the School of Vocal Music at Shanghai University of Arts. He is the best singer at Station B and is the lead singer of UP. He can't even sing the entire song once, right?"
"Can't find five in all of China? Isn't it too exaggerated?"
"Whoever said this must have never heard of this song. Once you listen to it, you will know whether it is an exaggeration or not."
"This is the most explosive scene I have ever seen. Du Luoquan's singing skills are really unmatched at his age."
"Am I the only one who thinks this is the real OP of Tokyo Ghoul?"
"Haha, the person upstairs feels the same as me. I really feel the same way."
"Yesterday Luo Quan tweeted to explain that this version was the version she originally wanted to sing when she wrote the song, but she found that she couldn't sing it at the time, so she sang a low-key speed-down version, euphemistically called the tender version. ( dog head)"
"This song was released in mid-August, and Luo Quan's singing skills have improved so much in just three months? His talent is so abnormal!"
"The song was released in August, but how do you know that this song was written by Luo Quan in August? Maybe it was a work from her middle school days?"
"It makes sense, but no matter what the situation is, Luo Quan's talent can be called terrifying."
……………………
While Bilibili users are still enthusiastic about the song, the day for the Tokyo Ghoul Season 1 finale screening has come.
In the twelfth episode, Kaneki, the male protagonist of Tokyo Ghoul, was caught by bad guys and suffered unimaginable torture.
And in this torture, he finally wanted to meet the senior sister hidden in his body, the female protagonist who died in the first episode after transplanting her organs into the male protagonist.
Under the persuasion of his senior schoolmate, the male protagonist finally accepted the fact that he had become a ghoul and accepted this identity that was completely opposite to human beings.
The male protagonist turned gray instantly and then completed his darkening.
At this moment, Luo Quan's "original version" of "Unravel" gently sounded, pushing the plot of the entire season of the anime to a climax.
The combination of fierce fighting scenes and explosive OP makes every fan who follows the series extremely enjoyable.
In the end, the blackened male protagonist's fighting power skyrocketed, and he easily defeated the villain who tortured him, and then tortured the villain in the same way that the villain tortured him, and asked the mathematical question that is famous in history:
"What is 1000-7 equal to?"
Amid the villain’s painful and frightening answers, Tokyo Ghoul Season 1 comes to an end.
Generally speaking, out of barrage etiquette, everyone will make a barrage of flowers at the end of the drama.
But this episode gave everyone a really shocking feeling. From the graphics, dubbing, voice actors to BGM, it basically reached the pinnacle of all dramas in recent years.
As for the plot, after eleven episodes of foreshadowing, it ushered in a hearty explosion. The male protagonist, who had been frustrated for a season, finally turned around and sang. Not to mention how enjoyable it was for the fans who were following the show.
"An absolute masterpiece!"
This is the comment with the most likes in the comment section, and it also expresses everyone’s feelings.
Taking advantage of the Tokyo Ghoul Season 1 finale, Luo Quan once again became a hot search topic. This time, whether it was Weibo, Zhihu or Bilibili, the reviews were highly unanimous and all praised.
I believe it won’t be long before this drama, which has received such high praise and popularity, will become a phenomenon in 2016.
Although there is only one and a half months left in 2016.
At this time, Luo Quan had already begun preparing for the midterm exam.
There is only one month left in the first half of this semester, and there are three subjects for the exam. Japanese speaking and Japanese writing are combined into one subject, and the history of German language and the history of Asian languages are one subject each.
Although she has been busy in the Philharmonic Club almost every day this semester and participated in various activities, she has not missed a single lesson. Although she did not learn as thoroughly as other top students, she relied on her extraordinary "memory (Failed)" With the help of the system, I still remembered all the knowledge points to be tested.
There's definitely nothing wrong with passing the test, and if you're lucky, you might even get a high score.
After the midterm exam, there will be a short vacation of more than half a month. During this period, the school will not assign any vacation homework. Japanese schools are very relaxed in this regard.
The burden placed on Chinese students is famous all over the world, especially for senior high school students. Even workers at the bottom of society in developing countries rarely get up at 6:30 in the morning and work until 10:30 in the evening before taking a break. I have to work overtime until after twelve o'clock.
What’s even more terrifying is that except for national statutory holidays, there are no weekends at all. Even the 996 work system, which is severely criticized by society, is not so outrageous. The hardship of Chinese students can be seen clearly.
In comparison, middle school students in Japan don't have such a hard time. They go to class at eight in the morning and finish school at three or four in the afternoon. Homework can basically be completed in school. After school, girls can go shopping and boys can play ball. There is plenty of spare time. .
My family’s school days are full of beautiful and relaxing memories, and what I remember most about the Huaxia students’ school days are probably the test papers and problem sets that were as tall as the students, as well as the physical education that the Chinese and mathematics teachers said caused them time and time again. teacher.
The fact that Chinese physical education teachers can show up completely in class is a medical miracle in the eyes of the students.
Luo Quan was very lucky. He dropped out of school early in his previous life and did not suffer much from the exam-oriented education in China. In this life, he came to Japan to study in high school at an age that should have been the hardest. He can be said to be a lucky man.
Originally, Luo Quan was still worried about how to spend more than half a month of vacation after the exam, but his mother called from Tasmania: "Hi, good daughter."
"Mom, what's going on?"
It seemed that almost three months had passed since the last phone call. Luo Quan suspected that her mother had almost forgotten that she had a daughter.
She is probably talking about her mother when she is reluctant to miss Shu.
"Are you going on vacation in a month?"
"Yes, the midterm exam is in one month. After the exam, I will have a short vacation of more than half a month."
"Then what are your plans for this long vacation?"
Luo Quan shook his head: "No, I probably stay at home."
Luo Ni said happily: "How about you come and reunite with your parents?"
