OST generally refers to the theme song (or opening and ending song) of a movie or TV series and the main interlude
As the first collaboration between the two top streams Yang Mi and Xu Kai , netizens' focus is not here, but -
"Thank you Zhang Bichen Teacher Mao Buyi's grace for not torture! Finally sang a happy ending CP! ”
It’s not because netizens are far from paying attention. It’s really because these two singers’ previous OST performances were too deeply rooted in people’s hearts.
Not long ago, a list of film and television soundtracks that have exceeded one million views in the past four years were released online.
dozens of songs, but back and forth, they were performed by those familiar singers.
and the plot style that each singer is adapted to is particularly distinctive.
From the " Plum Fragrance As Old HTML " that was affair with the Qing Palace, the "Direction of Light" of the Tang Dynasty;
to Northern Song Dynasty Officials' home fight, "Know or Not", "Don't Stain" of the joys and sorrows of heaven...
Some of the singers have sang many film and television songs, which have long exceeded their own independent published works, and are affectionately called by netizens -
"OST singer". The most wonderful thing about
OST singers is that their songs come with their own "personality".
As we all know, when you hear Zhoushen start singing, you know that the plot is going to be abusive.
Take Zhou Shen’s theme song "Big Fish" from "Big Fish and Begonia" that was first famous for his role.
The plot of this animation and the controversy that caused that year may have gradually been forgotten by the Internet.
But with Zhou Shen's singing, many people still remember the core feature of the film - abuse.
even some time ago Douyin set off another wave of nostalgic craze for "Big Fish and Begonia". The lyrics of high abuse are accompanied by the ancient style filter, making people fall into the role in one second:
"I'm afraid you will fly away, I'm afraid you will leave me, and I'm even more afraid you will stay here forever. Every tear flows to you..."

Weekly deep voice influence can be seen.
Speaking of which, Zhou Shen can definitely be called a model worker in the OST industry, and once set a record of singing 40 OST works in a row within 19 minutes.
This year alone, as of August, the number of OST songs he sang was as large as 17.
is not difficult to understand. Because Zhou Shen's voice is softer, it has a natural advantage for slow songs and lyrical songs , which is naturally suitable for this soothing tune of abusive moment.
After a long time, when I heard Zhou Shen's song, many viewers had habitually started to get vaccinations:
Be careful, and you will start to abuse!
is just like the popular "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" that was broadcast some time ago. The interlude "The Love of Love" appears at the most abusive moment of the whole play.
As the little orchid fell in Dongfang Qingcang's arms, Zhou Shen's voice rang out, and there was a wail in the barrage:
"Shen, we started singing again."
"Zhou Shen, you are waiting for me here."
"Zhou Shen, you are waiting for me here."

When the little orchid sent Dongfang Qingcang to leave, the barrage began to feel sad again: "Shen Shen sent another one away."
so that Zhou Shen himself joked: "I want to cover my mouth."
For a long time, the audience will even be afraid that Zhou Shen's singing will appear in the play.
When " Beginning " is approaching the end of the year, the male protagonist is afraid that he will not be able to do so. Entering the next cycle, the heroine was told to take care of herself. The two confessed and kissed each other in the concerns of being separated by life and death.
Zhou Shen's singing appeared "inappropriately" at this time.
Netizen immediately shouted: "Zhou Shen, sing a little less. "
After all, everyone doesn't want to see the beautiful love ending with a sad end.
Of course, Zhou Shen is not the only one in the OST industry who is "disliked". Mao Buyi, who is in the same situation, is also a well-known professional tragic person.
Mao Buyi doesn't have many song skills , but it is better because of its rich feelings.
sound has a texture of "worms" and it is easy to sing the delicate psychological feelings of the bottom-level little people.
It is also because of this that when singing heart-wrenching songs, there is always a texture that penetrates people's hearts.
The most well-known to the audience is "Ashes of Love". As soon as it is time for abusive love, Mao Buyi's "unwilling to dye it Right and wrong, but what happened to the opposite of your wishes" rang out on time.
The audience burst into tears in the barrage:
"High energy ahead, Teacher Mao is going to sing"
"Teacher Mao, go out"
...

The starring himself also played the hot topic of "creep" on Weibo:
Many netizens summarized the rules after listening to it too much: As long as the hair is not easy to come out, the plot will start to be cruel to death.
The wailing girl
" Eternal Love of Love" which is also a fairy tale drama, but it can't escape it. The sweeter it is in the early stage, the more abuse it is in the later stage.
So when Mao Buyi sang "use a lifetime, write and wait", netizens couldn't help it again:
"Teacher Mao, stop now."
No wonder in the OST world, Mao Buyi is also called "Mao" BE".
In addition to the two male singers, Zhang Bichen is definitely the most representative among the sad female voices.
representative works "Year Rings" and "Liangliang" are both extremely popular songs and are typical of mischief.
There are still many viewers today. When the sound of "The cool night is a river for you" sounds, the separation between Ye Hua and Bai Qian is in his mind.
Many netizens called Zhang Bichen "not abuse or sing", and they were also very afraid that she would appear in the scene of her meeting in CP.
Recently broadcast "Please You" Zhang Bichen sang the theme song "Sometimes No Life".
You are puzzles that you can't solve in your life
Answers Nowhere to find
In my heart
Tombstone Every word of Ming is about you
"despair" and "sadness" that can be seen in the lyrics. When the background music starts to broadcast, the shout of "Zhang Bichen Sings Don't Sing" appears in the barrage on time.
renders the already heart-wrenching atmosphere to the extreme. These mischievous OST singers can be said to be "indestructible".
Naturally, not all film and television works must present infinite heart-wrenching, and a drama also has many elements of joy.
plots such as jokes, reunion, sweet pets, etc. need to have appropriate background music to protect this ease.
In this regard, singers such as Liu Yuning , Wang Sulong are absolutely experts.
is different from Mao Buyi's nickname "Mao BE". Since the OST sung by Liu Yuning often appears at high sugar moments, he is also nicknamed "love security guard" by netizens.
is also the theme song sung for "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". The official also needs to explain that this song is the "warm theme song" of the TV series.
When Zhou Shen sent Dongfang Qingcang away, Liu Yuning's singing was accompanied by Dongfang Qingcang's return and kissed Xiaolan affectionately, which was extremely sweet.
In the modern drama "Rock Sugar Stewed Snow Pear", " When Meet You " sung by Liu Yuning often appears in heart-wrenching sweet moments.
"In this second, the heartbeat like a dream, only you can understand it."
So some netizens also played the joke: "Modern Ambassador Liu Yuning, your CP must be good!"
Sometimes even music in tragic times, with Liu Yuning singing, the ending will always lead to HE. In the TV series " Long Song Xing ", Hao, played by Liu Yuning, competes with martial arts and is beaten down by the other party in just a few moves. The ending song "A Love As Away" sung by him began to sound.
Some netizens complained: "I am beaten and I have to sing my own BGM."
But not long after, the situation reversed - Haodu won the final victory.
As expected, in my own BGM, even danger can be eliminated, and even fallen into the arms of my beloved.
Of course, the responsibility of "love security guard" cannot be protected by one person. Similar to Liu Yuning, Wang Sulong is also a recognized professional sweet pet.
When he was in the forefront of "A Smile Is Beautiful", who wouldn't hum that sentence:
"It was you who made my world turn pink from that moment, and it was you who made my life work as long as you cooperate from now on."
In addition to sweet little love songs, Wang Sulong's voice is often shown in some light comedy. The funny temperament of the funny enemies in "Little Joy" is consistent with his voice.
interlude "Shining", every sentence is full of youthful vigor.
I am extremely glad that I am young at this moment
Youth is burning
Even if I am shaking all the way tomorrow
waving pride
Last year, a drama found the song "Little Star" created by Wang Sulong many years ago as an interlude.
heroine is preparing to go back to her hometown to meet her boyfriend who had to separate for the last time.
Use Wang Sulong's song to express the ending of a pair of bitter mandarin ducks, which can also be regarded as a soothing agent.
allows this sad young couple to enjoy the last minute romance.
It is worth mentioning that although these OST singers contracted countless film and television songs and sang them extremely professionally, they have not always received praise.
Some time ago, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" became popular, and the theme song "The Legend of Love" became popular.
The audience was happy that the former lead singer of the FIR band became popular again, and they also deeply sighed:
"This time it's not Zhou Shen, Liu Yuning, Zhang Bichen,"
I was surprised, but I was not completely surprised
OST of domestic film and television has been divided into "territory" by these singers for a long time.
These old faces are always going back and forth, and each has its own relatively fixed style.
So, some netizens were curious:
There are so many singers, why do you point to them and sing OST? The answer to the question
may start with the birth of the term "film and television music".
In the beginning, film and television did not have the concepts of "theme song" and "end song".
It was precisely because people began to consciously let music cooperate with the picture, play a series of roles such as adjusting the atmosphere and promoting the plot that "film and television music" appeared.
The theme song of "Knowing or not knowing or not knowing, it should be green, fat, red and thin" adds a lot of color to the TV series
It has two meanings. The first is to become a song independently, and the second is to cooperate with the plot in the film and television.
So, for OST, in addition to meeting the basic requirements of the song, it also has a more special attribute -
Story sense.
More accurately, the story of marching in conjunction with the drama may be a deep love affair or a sweet and moving.
With this layer of requirement, the range of screening for singers will be much smaller. Singers whose voice is full of storytelling are more likely to be favored by production companies.
Even netizens are deeply impressed by this point
Furthermore, popular OST songs are often circulated with the top film and television dramas, and consideration of singer traffic is also a major focus.
If the singer himself has considerable popularity, it will play a role in promoting the series to a certain extent.
Zhou Shen’s Weibo replies and comments are not even inferior to the starring of major film and television dramas
So we can also see that most of these "OST singers" are so called familiar faces.
They not only shine in the field of singers, but also often play important roles in popular variety shows or film and television dramas.

Nowadays, most platforms have the function of skipping the opening and endings with one click, and many viewers do not hear the theme song in the play.
Therefore, the consideration of the singer's own promotional factors by film and television production companies is much more complicated than that of songs.
and even OST singers gathered in, fans even showed rebellious mentality.
Douban group selection "Who do you want to listen to OST the most?" Zhou Shen and Liu Yuning are far ahead of the votes
Everyone likes to listen to stories, which is a big reason why OST is strongly loved.
The "Tik Tok Kuaishou Hot Song" criticized by many people actually uses the sense of story as its selling point:
BGM used by millions of people, "Your eyes are like stars, shining, and you fall into a trap at a glance", which uses the precise expression of ambiguous relationships in the lyrics.
Some people say "OST is a high-end version of Douyin hot songs", and this is not without reason.
Audiences enjoy the profound feelings brought by these songs with the plot, but they are also worried that - the popularity of
The popularity of the film and television golden songs will gradually make other types of songs lose the market.
On the other hand, for singers, the explosion of Chinese dramas in the past few years has certainly given them more opportunities.
However, the general output speed of the assembly line and the song style overshadows the current situation of the singer's personal characteristics, which is also a problem that has to be worried about.
How to deal with the problem of audience aesthetic fatigue in addition to making good use of OST singers may still be a problem that domestic dramas have to face.
