Chapter 291 Konger Dialect Song
The second challenge was for the veteran actor Kuaifa to learn a song in the local dialect.
The fishermen's songs from the previous season have now become classic clips, watched repeatedly by fans and making them laugh every time. The production team also knows that the audience likes to watch these, so a segment on learning dialect songs was also arranged in the second season.
As for why I didn’t learn it when I was in Northeast China... Songs like "My Home is in Northeast China" are definitely not as funny as the dialects that most people can't understand.
In fact, they had already prepared this song. The original plan was for them to travel east, with Wenchang as their first stop. The series of divisive and polarizing tactics the program team is currently preparing was originally planned for Wenchang. They even prepared a seafood feast to highlight the difference in treatment between the five people who arrived first and the two who arrived later. The dialect songs they prepared were also in the Wenchang dialect.
Who would have thought that when they went to the western front, they would not be able to have the seafood dinner, and could only temporarily substitute vegetarian noodles and a full set of unlimited afternoon tea. The tents were bought on the spot, and the abandoned old houses were also temporarily borrowed from the village committee.
As for the three challenge projects, they can still be used if they are moved from Wenchang to Chengmai. After all, both Wenchang and Chengmai speak Nanhai dialect. If they run further south, the dialects on the east and west lines will be very different.
But it would be very rude for a certain male guest to directly expose that they used the dialect song prepared for Wenchang.
"A Malaysian singer from Wenchang? Director, are you just being lazy and using the original game challenge? Then I'm suddenly curious, if we don't come to Chengmai and go directly to Wenchang, what will you prepare there? Is there a temple there that provides vegetarian noodles and snacks?" Yu Yu tilted his head.
"You guys wouldn't find a few haunted houses in Wenchang and set up tents for us to live in, right?" Lu Hu's eyes widened, thinking that they were definitely capable of such a thing.
"Hu Zi, look at those tents, they are all ready-made. They must have prepared them long ago. Since they can use Wenchang dialect songs in Chengmai, they can copy and paste the others as well." Zhang Yuan looked as if he understood.
"Then you are wrong. Wenchang and Chengmai both speak Nanhai dialect. If you don't believe me, just ask Brother Sheng." Zhao Hao spoke for himself.
Chen Fusheng frowned, as if thinking about something. "It seems so. There are many dialects in Nanhai. The northern part is all Nanhai dialect, but even within this large language family, there may be subtle differences between cities."
"I remember it was the same. I could only speak Mandarin at the beginning. After coming to China, I made a special effort to learn about the dialect system here. Because the Chinese language is different from the languages of many other countries, it is very likely that I will not understand the dialects spoken in different regions."
Yu Yu also fell into memories. He thought of something and looked at Zhao Hao meaningfully and said:
"At the time, I saw that Sheng Ge's hometown, Nanhai, has a population of over 10 million, and its dialects are divided into many categories, and each category has its own subdivisions. If nothing unexpected happens, the Nanhai dialect spoken in Chengmai is different from the Wenchang accent, right?"
Zhao Hao was immediately choked, a trace of embarrassment and guilt flashed across his face, and then he immediately raised his finger to his mouth: "Alright, alright, little mouth!"
Where can he find another dialect song with Chengmai accent in such a short time? Really, it's difficult for others to tear it down, but you, a naughty kid, want to tear it down and even kick it when it's down, right?
"Oh, you know a lot. As a person from Nanhai, I don't know this." Chen Fusheng looked at Yu Yu with some surprise.
After all, singers rely on language and voice to convey music to the world, so language has always been a compulsory course for Yu Yu. Sometimes, traditional music from various countries still needs to be sung in their local traditional language to be more flavorful.
Yu Yu smiled and made a heart shape with her hands towards Chen Fusheng. "Of course, I love you, Brother Sheng. I paid a lot of attention to you back then, so I got to know you better."
Although he knew Yu Yu was teasing him again, who could resist the passionate confession of a straightforward little fish? Anyway, Chen Fusheng covered his mouth and laughed happily.
But Su Xing could, as long as the direct ball wasn't thrown at him: "You were focused on how he was going to defeat him. It seemed that at that time, Yu Shao only had eyes for his opponent, Huan Sheng. Why didn't you pay so much attention to us and learn our hometown dialect? It seems that you didn't take the rest of us seriously at all."
"How could that be? I know you, Allen." Yu Yu blinked her blue eyes.
Oh no, this wave was aimed at him. Su Xing was hit in the face by the straight ball and fell silent.
What's that fans' joke? Zhang Yuan and Wang Yuexin are Su Xing's sweetheart, while Yu Yu is her childhood sweetheart. Tsk tsk, how come you get all the good things, Allen Su?
Back to the topic, even if they teased Zhao Hao for not changing the song, they still had to learn the dialect songs, and they needed to learn the song and sing it within fifteen minutes without any mistakes to succeed in the challenge.
The first half of the song in the video is sung in Mandarin. Although you can vaguely hear the softness of Mandarin spoken by people from Nanhai behind the words, it is still very clear. The melody is also very simple and not difficult. A few professional musicians can learn it after listening to it once.
This is definitely not enough as a challenge. As the video continues, the real Nanhai dialect and Wenchang accent limited edition song reveals its original horror.
If the difficulty level of Haipu's song is level 1, then the difficulty level of the dialect in the second half soars to level 666. After hearing this dialect song, the smiles on the faces of the seven people who were originally laughing directly shifted to Zhao Hao's face.
Yu Yu knew the profoundness of the Porcelain language and the huge differences between various local dialects. He thought the most difficult to learn would be Wenzhou, Minnan, Hakka, Cantonese and Chaoshan. Now when he heard the Nanhai dialect, he understood why many residents on the Nanhai Island also spoke Haipu most of the time. They were probably worried that if they spoke the dialect, not only tourists would not understand it, but people from other dialect areas in the Nanhai would also not understand it.
It feels similar to Minnan dialect and is also similar to Thai and Vietnamese. Yu Yu finds it difficult to equate the sung sound with the translated words on the screen in his mind.
"What is all this, hahaha." Wang Yuexin was overwhelmed after hearing this.
"Why is this paragraph so long? How can I learn it?" Zhang Yuan felt dizzy.
Wang Zhengliang looked at Chen Fusheng and asked him if he understood. Chen Fusheng smiled bitterly and said frankly that if the song did not have subtitles, he, a native of Nanhai, would not understand it.
"Then let's each sing a sentence, like a fisherman's song." Su Xing said that each person singing a sentence is the simplest and most direct way.
But it is not easy to learn by rote memorization, so Lu Hu came up with a great method, which is to remember the pronunciation by ear and mark the pinyin and homophones, just like when learning English at the beginning.
Yu Yu thought he might not have learned Chinese well enough, because when he looked at the translated lyrics, he couldn't understand some of the words: People get wrinkled as they age, thinning and thinning until they're crooked. Dirt all over the body, it stinks, and the lust is ruined. Black coffee should be drunk thickly, and all the talk of borrowing money makes the face black. Fearing that my father is useless and my uncle is old, I'm like a chicken with saliva dripping out. Come on, come on, come on, sing, da da da da, drip da da.
It didn't matter if they didn't understand. Chen Fusheng explained the general idea, though the eldest brother himself didn't seem to understand it very well. They just had to quickly identify their respective singing parts and practice them by rote like a fisherman's song. Fifteen minutes was more than enough time.
Since the lyrics only have four eight-beats, the last two eight-beats are simple onomatopoeia that do not require much effort to learn, so they discussed it and decided that Zhang Yuan and Lu Hu would be responsible for the first eight-beat, Wang Zhengliang and Wang Yuexin would be responsible for the second eight-beat, Yu Yu and Su Xing would be responsible for the third, and the fourth eight-beat would be sung by Chen Fusheng, who had the buff of a local, alone, and the last two eight-beats would be sung by seven people.
The seven people sang their respective parts and then turned around and ran to different corners of the yard, covering their ears and starting to sing, but for some reason, as they sang, they began to twist their bodies in an unruly manner.
"Lang, that's it." Zhang Yuan twisted his body while looking at the Land Rover twisting with him.
Lu Hu held his phone and looked at the unspoken notes in his memo, singing enthusiastically: "Block, block, block, gēigiugiu."
Wang Yuexin looked at the two of them not far away and laughed so hard that her eyes were blinded by their itchy appearance. Their voices even had a nasal tone with a hint of curry. Wang Yuexin didn't think there was anything strange when the female singer sang in the video, so why did the taste change completely when the brothers with reduced intelligence sang?
"Hahahaha, stay away from us! Brother Liang, run quickly to avoid getting infected!" Wang Yuexin pulled Wang Zhengliang away from Zhang Yuan and Lu Hu, thinking that if they were far away, they wouldn't have any strange physical and verbal reactions. As a result...
He and Wang Zhengliang uncontrollably followed the melody and twisted their body even more vigorously.
"I'll leave the responsibility to Xin Jinxiao." Wang Yuexin shook her shoulders at Wang Zhengliang.
"Let's talk about dey and day." Wang Zhengliang was also shaking his shoulders, or to be more precise, he was shrugging to the rhythm.
Zhang Yuan and Lu Hu, not far away, saw that the two Wang brothers were unable to escape the clutches of the song, and they laughed happily with gloating joy: "You are still criticizing us, but we are dancing so well that it's pointless to talk about it!"
"Then do you want to figure out whether it's giao or giu?" Wang Zhengliang began to disrupt their morale.
Zhang Yuan and Lu Hu immediately ran up to him to let him know that he would not be affected: "It's Lang, the old man, who is the giǎo."
"Block it, block it, block it, that's it."
The two of them have already learned how to modify Nanhai dialect songs in various ways.
Wang Yuexin covered her mouth and nose unwillingly and said, "Then you rotten ones are really stinky." This sentence was used to describe how stinky they were.
"Yeah." Wang Zhengliang nodded seriously, indicating that their image was completely ruined. "It's useless to talk about dey vs. day."
Su Xing looked at the four people nearby and shook his head speechlessly, thinking that these people were still so childish at such an old age. But the next second, Yu Yu quietly patted his shoulder.
As he looked back, he sang a Southeast Asian dialect song, moving his neck back and forth like a free-range chicken: "Guo v oh suán sui gao gao."
Su Xing paused for a second and then continued singing happily, while his neck moved uncontrollably from side to side like the people in Wushi: "Then Gongji Mian oh oh."
Perhaps the only person present who sang most like a local was Chen Fusheng, if he hadn't snapped his fingers and swayed his body from side to side while singing: "If you don't worship the gods, you will be in trouble. If you don't worship the gods, you will be in trouble."
Zhao Hao and Dalin watched from the sidelines, their stomachs aching from laughter. Dalin even suggested to Zhao Hao that, given the group's current style, it might be more appropriate to have them sing Indian songs and dances in the future.
