Huayu96: My Thirty Years of a Prodigal Son

The first page of the lyric book has the song title written at the top: "Sad Pacific Ocean".

Han Jinhua habitually hummed the melody in her mind along with the score.

After he finished humming, his brows furrowed slightly.

It's not too bad, it's too good.

It was better than he expected.

The composition of this song feels very mature.

After thinking for a long time, Han Jinhua could only come up with a few minor modifications.

Chen Heping stood behind Han Jinhua.

He could certainly read the sheet music, but he couldn't sing it from memory, so he had to ask Han Jinhua.

"Old Han, how's it going? Can we use this song?"

Han Jinhua had already become interested.

Ignoring Chen Heping, she continued flipping through the pages.

The second song is "Listen to the Sea".

After browsing through it, Han Jinhua finally showed an expression of admiration.

Including "Too Softhearted" and "Relief", this should be the fourth original work by the other party that I have seen.

The quality remains amazing; it's an exceptionally fine product.

From a purely compositional standpoint, "Listen to the Sea" is probably the most technically sophisticated of the four songs.

It seems that the so-called genius that Old Chen spent a lot of money to recruit really does have something to offer.

As usual, ignoring Chen Heping's urgent questions behind her, Han Jinhua continued to look behind her.

The third song is titled "First Experience of Love".

The fourth song is titled "My Heart Is in Turmoil".

The fifth poem is titled "Quicksand".

The sixth song is titled "Love Is Simple".

The seventh poem is titled "10:30 at the Airport".

The eighth poem, "My Heart Is in Turmoil".

The office was so quiet that the only sound was the rustling of papers turning.

Chen Heping suppressed his temper and waited behind Han Jinhua until he finished reading.

But as Han Jinhua read further, the page-turning speed became slower and slower.

Even when he saw the later songs, his hands started to tremble slightly.

Chen Heping couldn't hold back any longer and stepped forward to ask urgently:

"Old Han, say something! How are these songs? Are they any good?"

Han Jinhua finally finished reading the last page.

He slammed the lyric book shut, leaned back in his chair, and let out a long sigh.

He turned around and looked at Qin Sheng with admiration.

"Qin... Ah Sheng, I'll call you Ah Sheng too."

Ah Sheng, are you sure you wrote these eight songs in the last two weeks?

Qin Sheng didn't want to show off in this kind of thing.

As a porter, he understood the importance of keeping a low profile.

So he shook his head vaguely and said, "Not entirely. I had a rough melody in my head before, but I only recently wrote it down."

Han Jinhua asked the question casually out of shock, without delving into the details.

He turned to the next few pages, pointed to the four songs "Quicksand," "Love Is Simple," "10:30 at the Airport," and "Heart Flies," and expressed his shock.

"Ah Sheng, the first few songs were alright, they were written and sung in the mainstream style of love songs in the Chinese music scene."

Of course, yours will sound better.

However, these last four poems really impressed and surprised me.

You're the first person I've ever seen in the Chinese music scene who can play R&B so skillfully.

I'm incredibly excited to see how much of a sensation this album will cause in the Chinese music scene when it's released.

Chen Heping listened to these words from behind and finally understood.

Does that mean it's well-written?

But out of caution, he confirmed with Han Jinhua again:

"Old Han, give me a straight answer on how these songs are written."

Han Jinhua finally turned around and looked at Chen Heping with a smile.

"Old Chen, you don't need to go to the music library to pick songs anymore."

Compared to these eight songs, the rest of the company's music library is utter garbage.

Chen Heping swallowed.

"Such high praise?"

Sony's music library, while not having many great tracks, is still a collection acquired from various songwriters at considerable expense.

In Han Jinhua's opinion, he wasn't even worthy of carrying the shoes of these eight songs?

While Chen Heping was still deep in thought, Han Jinhua smiled at Qin Sheng and said:

"Sheng, let's skip the demo. Since you're here, why don't you sing it a cappella and give everyone a demonstration?"

This was a reasonable request, and Qin Sheng was not intimidated by it in terms of singing skills, so he readily agreed.

Beside him, Han Jinhua personally took a guitar to accompany Qin Sheng.

Qin Sheng stood in the middle of the stage, ready to start singing.

Inside the room, Chen Heping and Liu Huan exchanged a glance and then sat down beside each other, ready to enjoy the view.

Han Jinhua plucked the strings and played a simple rhythm, and then Qin Sheng began to sing.

"Is leaving really cruel, or is gentleness shameful...?"

It starts with a slightly powerful verse melody, then suddenly rises in the chorus.

"One wave has barely subsided before another crashes in; a raging storm rages across the vast sea of ​​people..."

Chen Heping was filled with excitement as he listened.

The melody is so catchy, you can hum along after just one listen!

This song, "Sad Pacific Ocean," is definitely a song that is just as popular as "Too Softhearted"!

Next song, "Listen to the Sea".

Write to me and tell me what color the sea is today...

A lyrical love song full of emotional tension.

Next song, "First Experience of Love".

"If you really want to leave, give me back my photo..."

This time it turned into a light and cheerful upbeat song.

He had a kind of cynical and roguish air about him.

Chen Heping almost burst out laughing when he heard this.

This song is so interesting!

It will definitely generate a lot of discussion among young people.

Next song, "Quicksand".

As a large number of chromatic scales and trills appeared, Liu Huan's eyes widened.

As a professional musician who pays attention to international music trends, Liu Huan could certainly tell that this was an R&B style.

However, this R&B style is too mature!

It's absolutely on par with the top international standards!

Ah Sheng, that kid, actually had this trick up his sleeve!

This is such a pleasant surprise!

The next three songs, "Love Is Simple", "10:30 at the Airport" and "Heart Flies", are all very authentic R&B songs.

After the eight songs were sung, the audience fell silent.

Chen Heping felt dizzy.

This is the feeling of being drunk after just enjoying an auditory feast.

Turning to look at Liu Huan, Chen Heping asked tremblingly:

"Old Liu, what's the quality of this album?"

Liu Huan also came to his senses, let out a long, comfortable sigh, his tone full of shock.

"This is the level of skill that's going to dominate the battlefield!"

These eight songs by Ah Sheng, along with his previous works "Too Softhearted" and "Relief", span a wide range of musical styles, but each one is a masterpiece!

The song "Too Softhearted" has already become this popular, I can't imagine the phenomenal effect that an entire album of comparable quality would have if released to the market!

Hearing their conversation, Han Jinhua excitedly chimed in:

"What effect? ​​Of course, it's the effect of divine focus!"

This album is probably of such high quality that even the greatest compilations of those superstars don't have!

If this album doesn't sell like hotcakes, I, Han Jinhua, will quit this industry!
