Chapter 30 Lovesickness

A person's eternity suddenly became popular.

It's like a gorgeous firework.

While The Legend of Sword and Fairy had been dominating the screen and had been gaining popularity quietly, it suddenly soared into the sky without any warning and exploded!

Hu Wei's voice, singing skills, extremely rich emotions, and terrifying infectiousness all give this song soul.

In comparison, the two songs by Song Dao, which had just gained some fame, were almost instantly forgotten by many people.

It has also been used for comparison by some people.

"See? This is a real sad love song!"

"I think those two songs by Gou Ge are pretty good too. We can't praise one and criticize the other. To be honest, they each have their own style, right?"

"A person's eternity is a truly good song. I'm writing this post to prove that this song will definitely be popular for many years! It will definitely become a classic!"

"The two songs that Gou sang before resonated with me a lot, but to be honest, after listening to this song, I felt goose bumps all over my body. It was so damn heartbreaking. The more I think about it, the worse it feels!"

"I like this song very much. From low to high, it seems to be telling a story, which makes people immersed in it. They experience a love story like the protagonist, and listen to a sad and beautiful love story like passers-by."

"I'm a single guy, but after listening to this song, I feel like I'm in a passionate love relationship."

Music critic Cui Luo: This is a really good song. I really want to get to know Teacher Shui Ji San Qian.

The music critics from Audiovisual and My Show also came out.

"Why do I suddenly feel that the Xiayu music scene has regained its vitality?"

"To be honest, Song Dao is good! But Kong Xi and Hu Wei are better. This is what the music industry should be like."

“The Xiayu music scene is alive!”

"In-depth analysis of a person's eternity."

"I agree with Kong Xi when she said this is a healing song..."

……

In the Feiyang Music Company.

Full of laughter and joy!
Everyone was shouting with excitement as if they were given an injection of chicken blood.

The performance of the two new songs on the charts has been written on the company’s big whiteboard.

It's been very quiet -

Rising list: No. 5

New Songs Chart: No. 6

Popularity Index: Fifth

Without spending a penny on operations, it successfully defeated a number of water songs that were operated by big companies at high prices.

A person's eternity -

Rising list: 10th

New Songs Chart: No. 11

Popularity Index: 10th

The two hundred thousand I prepared before was not spent!
At this point, Lin Fei already knew that he had won the bet.

A business collaboration that would have made people laugh if we talked about it before: giving Song Dao the treatment of a gold medal producer is totally worth it!

There are more valuable ones.

It’s that Prime Minister Acacia!
……

She went to meet Director Zhang yesterday.

Accompanying us at the time were an assistant director, producer and investor from there.

Among them, the producer is a woman.

Everyone calls her Sister Wang. She is a well-known strong woman and female boss in the industry.

After Lin Fei went over, she sang the song a cappella in front of several people.

Without any accompaniment or even a guitar, the song made the producer nicknamed the Iron Lady cry.

Who among the older guys in the entertainment industry hasn’t had a romantic streak when he was young?
Who doesn’t have some feelings of resentment deep down in their heart?
This kind of ancient lyrical song may not be very touching to many young people.

Even indifference.

At most I just think it sounds nice.

But for people who have rich experience and stories, this kind of song is like a sword piercing the heart.

[Red beans grow in the south, it is a very distant thing]

【What is lovesickness? No one cares about it anymore】

[Drunk in the city that never sleeps, neon lights everywhere]

[There is a lot of love in the wine glass]

[The thing I am most willing to forget is the ancient poems, and the thing I disdain the most is lovesickness]

[I am afraid of being laughed at while guarding my love, but I am also afraid of being seen clearly]

[Spring comes again to see red beans blooming, but no lovers are seen picking them]

[Fireworks embrace the romantic but true love is gone]

The lyrics are so beautiful and poetic.

The key point is that although it is a love song, it has a majestic momentum.

The ability to interpret the emotion of lovesickness from such an angle and in such a way shows the skill of the lyricist.

More importantly, Lin Fei’s singing skills are so strong!
Both real voice and false voice are pleasant to the ear.

With ease and smoothness.

She hadn't sung in public for many years, but once she opened her mouth, she stunned everyone!

If those present were not all high-ranking officials, one would not even be able to resist the urge to record this scene.

This kind of song is a killer for them.

Sister Wang wiped the tears from her eyes and held Lin Fei's hand: "Teacher Lin sings really well, the song is also really good, everything is good! It's great!"

The assistant director was shocked: "This song is amazing! I thought Director Zhang was the first to use red beans to represent lovesickness. No, it was Director Zhang who first came up with this. But the lyrics are too perfect, aren't they? Director Zhang, you are awesome!"

Before, when Zhang Yi told them that he wanted to ask Lin Fei to sing a song for him, several people, including him, thought it was a bit ridiculous.

They don't think Lin Fei is a flop, but the problem is, if she could really come up with top-notch songs, she wouldn't have suffered so much criticism.

They have heard of "It's Always Quiet", but it doesn't match Director Zhang's "The Demonic Love"!

How can we be sure that Water Strike Three Thousand will work?
I told Director Zhang to his face that he was desperate and was trying every possible means.

At that time, Zhang Yi just smiled and waved his hands, saying it was okay, there was nothing to be afraid of giving it a try. Didn’t the people at Xianjian Wenqing also not expect that finding a big internet celebrity with good singing skills for the sake of traffic would actually bring some unexpected gains?

This is true. The director of The Legend of Sword and Fairy is also from Beijing, and he said before that he asked Kong Xi to sing purely for publicity.

As a result, as soon as the song was released, it became a hit in conjunction with the plot at the time.

It is said that the entertainment industry is full of metaphysics, and this is indeed the case.

Since Shui Ji San Qian can write a song for The Legend of Sword and Fairy, why can’t he write one for Demon Love?

And just as Lin Fei expected, Zhang Yi did not just look for her.

He used his connections to invite several big names in the music industry to take charge of the production.

Anyway, we will use whoever is better when the time comes.

It's not necessary and people won't work in vain. No one will say anything if they are given a hard work fee of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands.

Zhang Yi was very satisfied with this song.

I should say I am particularly satisfied!

He smiled and said: "Picking beans, carrying them in baskets, there is such a description in the Book of Songs, Xiaoya Picking Beans, but the 'beans' here are a general term for beans, not specifically red beans, and it is not talking about lovesickness.

But at that time, I was thinking, how to show the five hundred years of love between Wuzhiqi and Baihu, the two demon lovers?

So I thought of red beans!
First of all, it is very beautiful and makes people feel happy when looking at it, but often the more impressive something is, the easier it is to evoke people's thoughts and memories.

For example, we once admired red beans together..."

When talking about this matter, Director Zhang was very proud and talked about it with great enthusiasm.

Several people looked at him playing the flute with admiration.

After all, educated people can be very interesting even if they brag.

Especially the song sung by Lin Fei was so appropriate for the occasion.

This is equivalent to giving Director Zhang’s creativity a big buff!

In fact, Lin Fei knew it was successful before she sang the song.

To be precise, the moment she got the song, she knew it would be a success.

Song Dao is so awesome, even a little weird!

When the assistant director said that Director Zhang was the first person to coin the phrase "red beans symbolize lovesickness," she couldn't help but feel a little moved.

Maybe Director Zhang thought of it first, but Song Dao, who had no connection with him... also thought of it!
Not only did he think of it, but he also went one step further and wrote a five-character quatrain in the imitation of ancient styles!

That poem... in the eyes of this talented girl from Kyoto University, it could even be included in textbooks!
Director Zhang was talking, and when he saw that Lin Fei seemed to be distracted, he smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "Sorry, Teacher Lin, I have no idea what I am talking about."

Lin Fei chuckled: "No, Director Zhang, just now Deputy Director Xu said that you were the first to think of using red beans to represent lovesickness, and I suddenly remembered something too."

"Oh?" Zhang Yi's eyes lit up.

Before hearing this song, he didn't quite believe that anyone could resonate with him, but the lyrics were so beautiful!

It fits the plot of Demon Love too well.

Could it be that Shui Ji San Qian, the author of this song, already had the idea of red beans before?

impossible?

Lin Fei smiled and said, "It's like this. I found Teacher Sanqian at the time and asked him to create something with a try-it attitude. The result was..."

She briefly explained what happened, then turned on her phone, opened the foldable screen like a small tablet, and entered the account page of Shuijisanqian√.

Show it to everyone.

"I can't believe there is such a coincidence in the world. Director Zhang should still remember the date you contacted me. Then you can look at the date when he published this poem."

Zhang Yi carefully took Lin Fei's phone and joked, "I heard that this thing can hold down two instant noodle buckets at once?"

Everyone laughed and leaned over curiously.

"Red beans are born in the southern country, and spring comes to send a few branches. May you pick more, this thing is the most lovesick."

hiss!
Several people present, including the investor who had hardly spoken, were not illiterate.

Even if you don't have such a high level of literary appreciation, you can still tell whether a poem is beautiful or not.

"So this song was really composed by Mr. Shui Ji San Qian? This poem imitates an ancient five-character quatrain... was also written by him?"

Zhang Yi looked at Lin Fei with a gleam in his eyes.

That feeling is like finding a soulmate.

Lin Fei nodded: "Yes."

She was afraid that Director Zhang and his group would want to attack Sanqian, so she said directly: "Teacher Sanqian is relatively low-key and not willing to meet people. I basically communicate with him over the phone."

"Haha, talented people are all a little eccentric, that's normal, but please also convey my gratitude to Teacher Lin, this song is really great! The poem is also great, I have to think about whether I can add two more shots to include it!"

Zhang Yi felt a little regretful at first, but then became excited: "If it is adopted, I will pay additional copyright fees!"

That’s how great directors do things.

If it were many other people, they would not only use it without any care, but they might not even give their name to it.

After the matter was settled, Zhang Yi readily made the decision on the spot to hand over the entire soundtrack for the drama "Three Kingdoms" to Fei Yang Music.

By the way, I also asked if there was any progress on some songs from the Three Kingdoms.

I wasn't disappointed after getting a negative answer, after all, there was still a lot of time.

Look forward to it first.

……

Listening to the chattering discussions outside, Lin Fei was also full of thoughts in his office.

She really likes singing.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to keep training his voice every day after retiring for so many years.

She is not so strict about her body management.

I also used the time I had to calm down in the past few years to study various styles of music and related knowledge.

It is no exaggeration to say that she has already achieved great success.

But before he met Song Dao, he had a lot of internal energy but nowhere to use it.

Those powerful gold medal producers either retired completely to enjoy their old age, or coveted her and had improper desires.

She never thought that one day she would have the opportunity to sing again.

For some reason, I suddenly felt a little uneasy deep down.

Subconsciously, I picked up my phone and opened the blog of Song Dao, who goes by the pen name Shui Ji San Qian, wanting to take another look at the poem.

But I was very surprised to find that the account suddenly had more than 100,000 followers.

What's happening here?
She quickly clicked on the only post.

The comments inside surprised her.
