After Lin Jie's return, this interview program attracted the attention of countless people across the country, but its most critical role was to catalyze the completion of Friday's new song "Fiona". Originally, Zhang Xun and the others had never been in a dangerous environment of war, but when Liu Jingxin told them the story about Fiona, he habitually flattened the narrative and did not care too much about the tone and words, so although Zhang Xun and the others had feelings, they were very limited.

Feeling is a very important and essential element in music creation.

Music is emotional, and there is no way to constrain it with formulas or rules, and a seemingly unreasonable note can sublimate the whole phrase or even the whole song.

Liu Jingxin has high requirements for this new song, and he is unwilling to compromise on every detail, and repeating the work again and again will affect the state more seriously, which causes them to make arrangements for a long time, but they are almost still walking in place.

After watching Lin Jie's interview and listening to Lin Jie talk about some of his experiences abroad, Zhang Xun and the others have found some feelings. At the same time, Liu Jingxin felt that it was meaningless to try repeatedly, so he took his brothers together to watch various war disaster films to help them clarify the environment in which music was created.

Under this catalyst, the arrangement of "Fiona" was finally finalized, and after dozens of rehearsals, it was completely formed.

Friday made a very bold attempt in the new song this time, adding electronic music elements, but instead of strengthening the rhythm or adding psychedelic sound effects, it added a lot of special effects in war movies, such as the sound of machine gun fire, the sound of fighter jets skimming, and the sound of tank tracks crushing the ground.

In addition to this, they have also changed greatly in the choice of musical instruments.

Zhang Xun put down the lead electric guitar and switched to the horse-head qin, for which he also specially placed a Mongolian performer, and studied for several days before he could barely play this new song.

Da Yang abandoned the drum kit in favor of a wooden box drum, and in order to pursue the atmosphere of the night and around the campfire, he also specially used buckets of water to control the pitch and play the kind of sound he wanted.

The changes in these two instruments make this song feel more desolate and vicissitudes in the accompaniment, and even a little tear-jerking.

Many of the percussion rhythmic parts are shared by the sound of the clapping hands. In order to ensure that the sound effect of the clapping has the sense of hierarchy they need, they also invited a small choir of the school to record the sound of clapping for them, and then through the computer software for post-production, embedded in the keyboard.

Such a big change makes this new song meet Liu Jingxin's requirements, but it doesn't sound like Friday's style, not only not like rock music, not even like pop music, but actually a bit of folk song.

Of course, this is what it feels like to listen to the song without knowing the story behind it at all. If you know Fiona's deeds and the background of Liu Jingxin's creation of this song, and listen to this song again, no one should be unmoved, right?

After the recording of the new song is completed, according to the normal process, it is necessary to go through the process, report and queue up on the first release platform, and the first release platform will arrange the follow-up song release time and give enough recommendation support.

Friday is no longer a grassroots band, and their fame is destined to prevent them from releasing new songs as freely as they used to.

During the time of queuing, Friday was not idle, but went out to participate in some variety shows according to Sister Xin's suggestion, but only as a temporary guest, not a resident guest, the purpose was to find an opportunity to promote the new song.

Finally, after almost a month of queuing, Friday's new song "Fiona" has finally been released.

On the day the new song was released, "Fiona" rushed directly to the tenth place on the new song chart, which is not comparable to the results of the first new song released on Friday, but at least it is still within the acceptable range. In the next few days, "Fiona" should continue to hit the new song list with the help of recommendations, rushing to the top five, top three and even first.

However, to everyone's surprise, just a day later, "Fiona" bucked the trend and fell to the fifteenth on the new song list, which is already a position that must be pulled down to see the list.

After another day, "Fiona" continued to decline, and it fell directly out of the new song chart.

opened the song, and the comments exceeded 999, except for saying that they didn't understand, they were questioning Friday's creative ability, and even radical fans directly expressed their disappointment with Friday and said that they would lose their fans.

Friday's official Weibo is also full of criticism, and the following comments are divided into two categories, one is brainless maintenance, and it also leads to the news that "female teachers sacrifice their lives to save students";

The release of a new song turned out to be a public relations crisis for Friday, and if it is not handled well, it may even affect Friday's future, which is unimaginable for all the relevant staff, including Sister Xin.

It can only be said that this group of fans is too difficult to serve!

Liu Jingxin doesn't seem to be in a hurry about this, he is not affected by the outside world, he still works step by step every day, and he still works hard to promote his controversial new song.

Having experienced the war, he knows better than most people that everything in this world exists for the sake of existence, and the same thing is completely different in the eyes of different people. There is no way for him to change everyone's opinion, all he can do is to be himself first and wait for an opportunity.

Finally, the opportunity he was waiting for came.

In an episode of a talk show, as a guest, Liu Jingxin found an opportunity to speak freely, directly announced his kidnapping, and told in detail every detail before and after, the most important part of which is Fiona's appearance and death.

Liu Jingxin's revelation was so unexpected that even the editor of the show was shocked, and released the entire clip without cutting it for a second.

On the day that the show was broadcast, it directly detonated the whole network, and the entry of Liu Jingxin's kidnapping dominated the first place in the hot search, and the media in various entertainment sectors also rushed to report it.

At this time, everyone finally knew why Liu Jingxin wrote the song "Fiona", and why this song was completely different from the music style before Friday.

People who used to listen to this song without any feelings, when they listen to it again at this time, think of Liu Jingxin's creative background, and think of the cold and bleak night, the great female teacher lying alone on the cold hospital bed, and countless people calling her name, which makes people can't help but burst into tears.
