Women in this era are not suitable for publicity.
The low status of women stems from inequality in labor, which in turn leads to
inequality in income. The economic foundation determines the superstructure.
This statement applies to the entire society, as well as to the families that
make up the society.
Xia Fan opened a large number of jobs suitable for women to participate in
order to change this status quo-and this is not a forceful reversal of
facilitating the growth of the seedlings. With the popularization of Qi and
various magical instruments, the individual production capacity is constantly
improving, and the gender belt The difference in the incoming labor force is
gradually decreasing. In the past, a blacksmith brought three or five
apprentices, and beat and beat for most of the day to make a shovel. Now, a
female sensation manipulates the Tiandong instrument punching machine and can
smash a sharp piece in less than a quarter of an hour. The income is basically
three times that of traditional industries.
It is foreseeable that this income will greatly improve the status of female
workers in the family. Even if others want to obstruct, women with income can
move out to live independently.
But this change is slow. Even if the facts have happened, the conservative
concept will continue for a long time.
Therefore, Xia Fan wanted to take advantage of the New Year holiday to carry
out a new round of publicity.
Choosing to sing is also the result of many considerations.
First of all, singing is not shameful-when the poet rises up, he sings and
sings on the spot, the fishing boat sings at sunset, and even the ancient
carols at the festival are basically scenes that everyone talks about.
Compared with dance, which shows the beauty of the body, the song is much more
popular. As long as it is not the Yingyingyan language dedicated to brothels,
folk songs or classic piano music are suitable for both men and women, and
they will be more acceptable to everyone.
Secondly, songs can convey ideas and boost people's confidence.
The women gathered here are all good players. It shouldn't be a problem to
compose a catchy folk song for Jinxia City that reflects local changes. If you
sing too much, the spirit in the lyrics will naturally have a subtle influence
on people.
The last is to subvert the tradition.
According to past habits, the key figures who sang at this kind of ceremony
were basically famous literati or officials of the Ministry of rituals. It has
never been possible to use women before, let alone let the demon take on the
finale. It can be described as every point. It is shaking up the traditional
concept of Qiguo.
This is exactly what Xia Fan wanted.
After the proposal was put forward, Ning Wanjun naturally had no objections,
or that she had a preference for three-pointers for unconventional things,
otherwise she would not pretend to be an alchemist, and closely examine Xia
Fan's performance.
With the approval of the princess and the recognition of professionals, only
the level of Chi is left.
...
"That's it, you want me to offer a blessing song to the Jinxia people at the
end of the celebration?" Chi lifted his chin slightly, looked around at the
women in the lobby with their own merits, and then turned his gaze back to Xia
Fan, "Cooperate with the PA. , It can make the whole city hear my voice, but
after all, this look is not as eye-catching as the soaring dragon."
"It's not just singing." Xia Fan took a cushion and placed it in front of the
two of them. "You use it as a square for the stage, surrounded by a sea of
people. When the atmosphere is at its highest point, you fly through the
air. After--" He shook his arm, and then patted the center of the cushion,
"Finally, it landed straight in the colorful fireworks and became the focus of
much attention."
"In addition, I know what you are caring about," Xia Fan cleared his throat.
"But in fact, the true dragon form gives people too much deterrence. Everyone
has half fear and respect for you, which is not suitable for further promotion
of your reputation. On the contrary. Getting closer to the masses like an
ordinary person will make your image fuller."
"Um... it sounds reasonable," he pondered for a moment, "If that's the case,
then I promise you."
At the same time, Yu Shuangxue and Xintao were quietly looking at the rumored
auspicious beast.
"She seems to be about the same age as me..." Xin Tao whispered, "It's just
that the aura is really extraordinary. I think the oppressive feeling of Chi
Master is much stronger than that of Girl O."
"But she is actually much older than you. Don't lose courtesy later."
"I won't." The little girl smacked her tongue. "But she herself is cuter than
the portrait in the newspaper, just like the fairy walking out of the
painting."
Yu Shuangxue did not deny this. Although she didn't know what the fairy should
look like, she could say that the woman in front of her was a fairy, and no
one could raise any objection. The smooth skin is white and rosy, the lips are
like cherry blossoms, the bridge of the nose and the eyebrows like willow
leaves... The whole face seems to have not experienced the turbidity of the
world at all, and the traces of the years flow are not for her. effect. The
pair of furry prongs on the top of her head are even more eye-catching,
widening the gap between her and the mortals.
Such a lovely girl, with such a cold voice, I don't know what it would be like
to sing a song.
I'm afraid it will be extremely pleasing to the ears.
"Everyone, about the repertoire at the celebration...Do you have any good
suggestions?" Xia Fan asked, turning to the crowd.
"Master Xia, how about "Yangchun Baixue"?" Xintao first raised her hand to
speak-her move scared Yu Shuangxue, and she was relieved after hearing the
title of the song. Fortunately... it is a very normal pipa song, the tune is
lively and light, and it also expresses the scene of the earth recovering from
winter to spring, which is quite suitable for celebrations. At the same time,
because it is very famous, there are many good words, and there are many
choices.
"this is not bad."
"It's that the beat is more variable, so you need to pay more attention when
you play."
"As for this, I don't think I should be troubled by the sisters."
Other women agreed.
Seeing this, Xia Fan quickly made a decision-let Chi have a try on the spot.
Anyway, these things like musical instruments, there are everything in the
villa.
Everyone is a good player in this area. After playing twice, the conclusion is
reached. Liu Ruyan and Yu Shuangxue are unanimously selected as accompaniment,
and Xin Tao is responsible for leading the singing.
After the little girl sang the complete first paragraph, it was Chi's turn
next.
The moment the pipa started from the beginning, she spoke decisively.
The timing is perfect!
"Ding——" Liu Ruyan's fingers trembled~www.mtlnovel.com~ actually played the
wrong string.
This should be a mistake that should not have been made, but no one at the
scene noticed it.
Everyone was stunned.
Xia Fan was also dumbfounded.
Not because of how good Chi sang, but because of her horrible singing. Out of
tune, wrong timing, pentatonic tone, white voice-all the problems that can
arise, almost all appear in the blazing voice. Obviously speaking, it was cold
and thorough, but after the beginning of singing, it all changed.
More importantly, Chi didn't know anything about it.
Judging from her expression, she seemed quite satisfied with her ability to
memorize songs, and she sang to the end in one breath.
"How is it?" Chi let out a sigh of relief after singing, and asked
unfinishedly.
Kong Xuanzi, who accompanied her, couldn't help covering her face.
