There are many gimmicks in this program that can be hyped: the feelings of old band, the story of Wu Qingfeng and Soda Green, the gags of Ma Dong and Gao Xiaosong, the love and hatred between musicians... You can keep talking for three days and three nights. It was Zhang Yadong who sat down as a "super fan" and said nothing.
When the band variety "The Summer of the Band" just started, the audience complained that it was "like a wonderful flower saying that the band played in the middle".
After several issues, an unexpected and reasonable thing happened: the person who is the least "wonderful" may become the biggest winner.

At last, as a "super fan", he sat down on the stage and didn't say a word Zhang Yadong 。
Netizen comments
The most gentle music teacher in history
As a well-known music producer, Zhang Yadong has a series of brilliant names on his resume: Dou Wei, Faye Wong, Pu Shu, Xu Wei, Zhang Qiang, Mo Wenwei, Li Yuchun
However, human's gossiping nature determines that his past corps of peach news targets are more talked about: Dou Ying, Gao Yuanyuan, Qu Ying, Mo Wenwei, Xu Jinglei
Zhang Yadong's Comments on The Round Table School
After going out of the mountain this time through the "Summer of the Band", the audience's perception of Zhang Yadong quickly split into two schools.
The school has long forgotten his gossip and the famous "literary and artistic scum man" image, and is completely convinced by his current performance;
The other group was enlightened and surprised, because they finally understood why he always had such a strong attraction to goddess level female stars.
At a glance, Zhang Yadong's performance in "The Summer of the Band" can be rated as moderate and no bright spot, because he is always too gentle.
The voice is gentle, the tone is gentle, and the whole person is very gentle. Even if it was the performance of the band, he just crossed his hands and leaned forward slightly, and calmly praised the band for three times:
"I think it's very good", "Really very good", "I like it very much" It is not inconsistent to adjust the speaking speed to 1.25 times.
However, in the excitement and passion of rock music, Zhang Yadong, like a lukewarm person, made the audience feel very comfortable and useful.
Perhaps the reason is simple: I haven't seen such friendly professionals in music programs for a long time.
In this program, Zhang Yadong's qualifications need no more words, but he is like a passionate and dedicated primary school music teacher.
In other words, what he likes most is that he always sincerely helps every ordinary audience Learn as much as possible about music and what you enjoy 。
After Mr. Turtle playing reggae, Zhang Yadong worried that many listeners did not understand the common sense of reggae music. He explained that the stress of reggae music was in beats 2 and 4, and taught everyone hand by hand which beat to wave at.
When explaining why some music is very old-fashioned, he will pop up an old-fashioned melody, guide the audience to involuntarily sing the last note, and then suddenly realize.
Many other contestants look down on the burning Lushansen Band, and scornfully say that they are a "big folk band".
Zhang Yadong also doesn't like Lu Xiansen's songs, but he points out that the chord used by Lu Xiansen in composition and arrangement is the basic model for beginners. This can at least make the layman understand that the disapproval of insiders is due to the gap in technical level.
We have seen the judges of Rainbow Fart Rank 10 in various music programs, and the literary talent of their comments has entered a psychedelic realm, but Zhang Yadong seems to belong to a minimalist school:
He just used very simple language to point out what ordinary music fans heard, but could not say why.
I admire the adaptation of Faye Wong's "I Will", and Zhang Yadong is the first to remind the audience by using the half tone effect;
Mr Miss, who is good at jazz music, is very brilliant in improvisation. Zhang Yadong's eyes are shining, like a Chinese teacher who is eager to analyze excellent model essays for everyone at once, explaining what is wonderful about the chords they use.
These details are unimpressive, but they connect the most unique aspects of this music program in the industry: not only bring a small circle to the public, but also sincerely communicate with the audience, where they are good and where they are bad.
In this process, Zhang Yadong appears to be both professional and sincere, and he has not taken the lead at all.
This is very popular with today's young people: those who work outside these days are all talented. It is always better to show the truth without trace.
Non greasy "old man"
In addition to the appropriate comments, the audience's highest praise for Zhang Yadong is "not greasy".
Some people say that Zhang Yadong's "non greasy" takes advantage of the appearance to a large extent.
Even though he is 50 years old, he still retains the typical middle-aged temperament of a literary man compared with his peers on both sides, Ma Dong and Gao Xiaosong.
But in the final analysis, what made him win this "honor" was still his talk in the program.
The biggest crime of the "middle-aged fat man" who has been denounced in recent years is to judge the world by his own qualifications and try to exert authority on the younger generation.
But in the 50 year old Zhang Yadong, the audience could not find such exaggerated arrogance and arrogance.
On the contrary, Zhang Yadong's expression in the program has always been sincere.
For example, in the face of the controversy of the Lu Xiansen Band, such a program is bound to cause controversy between popular and minority groups. Lu Xiansen, who has held concerts in Gongti but is not very popular in the eyes of his peers, is a target.
Zhang Yadong confessed that he had made music for so many years, and had heard too many routine things. In fact, Lu Xiansen's popular music of emotional flow never touched him, but he immediately added a gentle sentence:
Of course, it doesn't matter whether I like it or not. A kind of music always has its audience.
Zhang Yadong prefers to emphasize to ordinary listeners that there is no right or wrong music he prefers and that there is no nobler music. He just sincerely suggested that since the audience loved music, they could embrace more types of music, just like seeing different worlds.
Therefore, the audience can feel from his speech that in middle age, seniority is not necessarily only used to build up a sense of superiority to tout their own taste and experience.
However, not showing his talent does not mean that Zhang Yadong is an old man who loves to play music.
On the contrary, every time Zhang Yadong expresses his opinions of principle, his firm belief is hidden in his gentle tone.
He insists that being a band is different from being the most easily accepted pop song. You must have your own attitude.
Therefore, he did not value the small fresh meat group that was stubborn and had no faith to form a band. He also did not hesitate to praise the band with personality and ideas, and encouraged them to "learn to defend their own music and ideals". Every slow and reasonable comment was very impressive.
The charm the audience felt on him was nothing but sincerity.
It is the biggest praise an "old man" can get in today's public opinion that he is still sincere.
In all the talks, Zhang Yadong, a well-known producer, was communicating with the audience on an equal footing, earnestly expressing his views and dedication to music, but what he said had nothing to do with Zhang Yadong's ego.
The inflated ego is the trap that middle-aged men fall into when surrounded by praise and achievements.
The age when Uncle fell out of favor
It has to be said that Zhang Yadong returns (or even enters) the sight of contemporary young people for the first time with "The Summer of the Band", and this time is really right.
In this program, there are three men born in the 60s on the same stage. Ma Dong is responsible for making jokes, Gao Xiaosong is responsible for playing the high-end version of Beijing taxi driver as always, and gentle Zhang Yadong is responsible for keeping the girls' final fantasy of middle-aged literary men.
In a big way, this is an era when the old style uncles in the entertainment industry have fallen off one after another, and people are eager to see the new paradigm of middle-aged men appear.
This is also complementary to the public opinion's complaints and counter attacks on "greasy middle-aged men". Those qualities that are picked out from middle-aged men and reexamined are also lucky stars.
Emotionally, the illusion of a mature, rich and affectionate uncle has long been shattered by Wu Xiubo's scandal.
In the big melon eating scene, people also saw one truth: maybe the elegant and elegant clothes that were too delicate were just gorgeous gowns written by Eileen Chang.
The middle-aged man who is a life coach has also been teetering on the cusp of the storm in recent years.
Jin Dong is suspected that he always wants to go to the cultural center with a tall face. Huang Lei is suspected that he can't overcome his teacher instinct and loves to educate people too much. In short, everything is the fault of "talking too much".
There are more middle-aged men than they are hated by the masses. Gao Xiaosong is one of them.
The short, big and tight teacher, who knows astronomy and geography from his fan, seems to have no boundary in the knowledge universe that he can travel. The three treasures of "Friends, Tsinghua University and the United States" are always for him to sit on the throne of worship.
But once exposed once, he may be bluffing, and the encyclopedia image will be difficult to recover.
In fact, the middle-aged men in the entertainment industry who were once looked up to and later pulled down from the show are nothing more than the most typical shortcomings of the "greasy middle-aged" who were attacked: their vision and mentality are stagnant, and the demand for recognition and praise around the world is expanding crazily.
The failure of middle-aged people is because there are only routine rules for such people. They repeated the clich é that they had already believed and stagnated thousands of times, making it hard to see how they could show a little fresh and sincere heart to whom and what.
In this atmosphere, Zhang Yadong himself must not have expected that he, as a witness of the golden age of the Chinese orchestra, is now unexpectedly turning red by the changing public opinion.
He just shows some seriousness, sincerity, humility and tolerance in the professional field, which is enough to become a new favorite of contemporary young people.
Anyway, is it rare for such an "old man" to meet the aesthetic needs of the new era in the entertainment industry today? It seems that it is really rare.
They need to make achievements in their own professional fields, but they will not show off and blindly educate others;
He is sincere and indifferent, but he cannot yield to the secular and slick, and must stick to his own attitude.
The requirements are really not low. The middle-aged men who are still considered "fresh and refined" can count with almost two hands.
Perhaps Zhang Yadong is just the beginning of the public opinion rebellion - people are increasingly aware that talent does not have to be aggressive, but sincerity can also be gentle and dazzling.
