That sunny morning and that breezy afternoon belonged to the little story between Dale and Lan Li, which no one ever knew.

Dale didn't show off the gifts that Lan Li gave him to others, and he didn't even mention that he and Lan Li had a pleasant conversation, but whenever Lan Li's work was released, he personally went to the cinema, bought a movie ticket, and then enjoyed the good time that belonged to the film, even if his legs and feet began to become inconvenient, even if he began to need to support crutches...... I have never changed this little habit.

After about five years, Dale's body finally began to protest strongly, and diseases of all sizes began to emerge, going in and out of the hospital intermittently, and then, after just a small fall, he was admitted directly to the hospital, and he was never able to leave the little white ward-

Before he was hospitalized, he was still a crew janitor, guarding the crews of well-known and unknown crews, and the crews of those movies and TV series, until he could no longer walk, and then he was forced to end his job. Dale's three sons and daughters rushed back to Cincinnati.

One afternoon, when Dale was in a particularly good spirits and seemed to have all the ailments gone, he looked at his son, who was looking irritable from his work over the phone, and asked, "Can you be in that or something...... I don't know, what's that Spo or something, search, 'Hello, My-Old-Heart'?"

The son couldn't understand his father's words at all, and his irritability because of work couldn't be calmed down, so he simply called his younger brother and sister over and asked them to help, but he didn't expect the three siblings to argue in the ward: they have all grown up, they all have their own work and life, and they all have their own troubles and troubles...... Every day in Cincinnati is eating away at their lives.

In the end, it was Dale's granddaughter who silently helped, "Papa, what do you need me to help you search?"

Dell's explanation still didn't make it clear, but the young man finally found a way and did the search through Google.

"Grandpa, this ...... This is a song, a song from Lan Li II, you know Lan Li, right? It's that actor, a very, very famous actor, I remember you used to take me to watch his movie with you, that ...... Uh......" The granddaughter's memories are already a little blurry, but Dale still remembers, "'Love is crazy'", his reminder made his granddaughter's eyes brighten, "Yes, it's the protagonist of that movie." ”

But after reacting, confusion followed, "Grandpa, why do you suddenly want to search for Lan Li's songs? Don't you like blues and jazz more?"

Dale patted the back of his granddaughter's hand lightly, and instead of answering, he said, "Play it to me." ”

That's how the song is hummed.

"Honk, trumpet, trumpet," the light and agile tune hummed through the melody, and the arguments and noises in the ward were silenced unconsciously, and then some people began to complain, "Why are you playing music in the hospital? Don't you know that noise should be forbidden in the hospital?"

In the midst of the complaints, a low voice could be heard faintly calling, "Hey, Dale", and then continued to hum in the tune again, "Honk, flak", which made the granddaughter stunned directly, and turned her head to look at Dale incredulously, "Grandpa, what was that voice just now?"

Dale didn't answer, just listened quietly, and the familiar lyrics flowed, "Hello, my original intention, are you okay? Are you still beating in my chest?"

Suddenly, Dale's eyes moistened slightly, nodded slightly, and muttered in a voice that only he could hear: "Hello, my original intention", and then slowly closed his eyes, and hummed softly, the familiar lyrics shuttled in the unfamiliar melody, colliding into a smart and graceful dance, like a breeze telling those ancient legends and ancient stories, telling all the pain and memories.

Dale felt as if he was starting to dance, and his cells became lighter.

After the song was finished, the granddaughter was completely frightened, and she immediately played the song again, and at the same time began to search for the lyrics on Google, successfully confirming that the low call at the beginning was indeed "Dale", and countless Don Quixote tried to uncover the secret of this call, "who is Dale", but there is still no answer.

After waiting for her parents and elders to leave, the granddaughter cautiously asked Dale, "Grandpa, the first call...... Is that you?"

She knew that her idea was very ridiculous, even a little fanciful, but she still couldn't help but guess like this, those scattered clues were connected, causing a big explosion in her mind, and she couldn't stop at all, so she said her thoughts, hoping to be confirmed.

Dale didn't admit it, but he didn't deny it, "You know what? I still remember that afternoon, I was just a janitor, he was out of reach, I tried to say something to him, I was talented, and I dreamed that I could talk to the big names in Hollywood, and I could turn around and show off to your dad, your aunt and uncle, and my job wasn't as humble as I thought it would be." ”

But I didn't expect him to talk to me seriously, and even talked to me about movies, and talked about the trivial things I like about movies. I couldn't help but forget about the show-off and just talk about what I thought, can you imagine? I even commented on his performance, Jesus Christ, I can't believe I did, but the truth is, I did, and he was very happy. ”

"That's when I realized that a person who really has a dream will shine. I wanted to be like him, but then I realized that I was that I was that person, but I needed to be a little bit more determined. Joanna, I hope you can be the one who makes yourself happy. ”

The specious and ambiguous words brought too many shocks, but they did not clearly reveal the answers, and when the granddaughter tried to find out more, Dale was already tired and groggy in a half-asleep state, and her questions were not answered.

That afternoon, Dale listened to the song over and over again, almost going mad, and at midnight he hummed the familiar tune and died in his sleep. When he left, he still had a bright smile on the corner of his mouth, because he hugged his original heart and fell asleep, never separated.

When Lan Li released the second series, even Don Quixote, who was the most loyal and hardcore, had no way of knowing who the "Dale" in "Hello, My Original Heart" was.

Someone has asked Lan Li many times, publicly, privately, social networks, etc., etc., but Lan Li has never told the story behind it, just said, "That's a person who loves life", which has caused countless conjectures, but no one has ever been able to know the real answer.

It wasn't until a long, long time later that the secret was revealed.

A nineteen-year-old college student named Joanne-Davis unexpectedly finds a letter among her grandfather's belongings, revealing the answer.

The song was a gift from Lan Li to an unknown old man named "Dell-Davis", who had no fame or accomplishments, just an ordinary man, a former farmer in the South, and then a crew janitor in Cincinnati, who had nothing to write about in his long life, and seemed to have no intersection with Lan Li at all.

But according to the letterhead, it can be seen that Dale once had a conversation with Lan Li, and that conversation triggered Lan Li's inspiration, and then wrote this song specifically for Dale; judging from the time of the letterhead, it should have happened to "Carol" during the filming in Cincinnati, and Dale was the gatekeeper of the crew.

Tracing back to the roots, the whole story was revealed little by little, and the memories that belonged to Lan Li and Dale remained in the melody forever.

Sadly, Dale never shared it, but kept that memory to himself. Even Joanna only knew a few words, and there was no way to know the whole story.

The letterhead, which Lan Li personally admitted, was indeed written by him and given to Dell, but Lan Li still didn't talk too much about the story that belonged to them, "It is our memory, all the stories are in this melody, and we still maintain some respect."

After the truth was revealed, it caused an uproar, and countless discussions were corroborated by the letterhead.

Later, this handwritten letterhead written by Lan Li appeared at a private auction on the black market, and the highest amount was once called for $140,000.

Many people persuaded Dyer's three children to auction off the letterhead, which would improve their lives and be the only possession Dale left behind. There was a bitter disagreement between the three children, and at one point they were even on the verge of going to justice, but in the end, they were not sold.

Rumor has it that the Davis family received a check for $140,000 from Lanli, in the name of royalty revenue sharing, which is why they canceled the auction, but this rumor has never been confirmed, and it is just a rumor that cannot be distinguished.

But no matter what, this letterhead was kept in the Davis family, and finally inherited by granddaughter Joanna, but it still belonged to the entire family, stored in the house in Cincinnati, passed down all the way, and became a part of the "grandfather's memory" that everyone knows, and the "original intention" is preserved.

How are you?
