Chapter Ninety-Three: A Hug
In any world, in any time and space, there is no literary and artistic work that can conquer everyone.
Beethoven, Mozart, Chaplin, Mei Lanfang, Van Gogh, Xu Beihong, Rabindranath Tagore, Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng...... They are all masters, but even if they are their most prestigious masterpieces, there are more people who don't like them, or even people they hate.
Therefore, no matter how good "Farewell" is, people who don't like it still grab a lot of them.
Especially...... Youngster.
Although more people will still like it very much, and many people will at least feel that the level of this song is quite high, even if they don't like it much, but I have to say that except for those professionals who account for a very small number of people, this "Farewell" is not the kind of work that will make people obsessed with it as soon as they hear it.
In the face of the general public, especially a large number of young people, it needs a certain amount of time to ferment slowly.
On the other hand, it is obvious that with the appearance of those singers invited by the director team one after another, this New Year's Eve song party has really begun to win the hearts of a large number of young audiences, and the ratings of the show have also begun to rise.
But in this regard, Tang Xiao, the director of the New Year's Eve Song Club, who got the ratings report of the time slot, was not worried at all, because he knew that although the song did not add color for the time being, at least it did not arouse the impatience of young audiences, and as time went by, he believed that this song would definitely slowly get its own high evaluation, and at that time, he, the first promoter in the promotion, would naturally get the evaluation he deserved.
Around 9 p.m., the national ratings of the New Year's Eve song party have reached 6.8%!
Although there is still a certain gap from the highest 7.43% of the 93-94 New Year's Eve song party around ten o'clock, there is still an hour left, and Tang Xiao is not worried about this at all.
When the time came to around half past nine, the ratings signal monitored by the satellite in real time began to jump suddenly, and on the basis of the ratings curve that had just risen steadily, it suddenly jumped up by about 0.1%!
In the monitoring room, Tang Xiao turned his head and glanced at the big TV that was muted next to him, and saw the five girls singing and dancing on the screen. He couldn't help but smile and nod slightly.
Grabbing a piece of paper from the side, he jotted down the real-time data just now, and then patiently watched the curve continue to rise slowly. However, suddenly, the curve was a sudden upward jump!
At this time, it is in thousands of households across the country, at the special moment of the New Year's Eve song party. I don't know how many young boys and girls have grabbed the TV remote control at home and are spending their New Year's Day party. When the song "Sister Sister Stand Up" appeared, it almost immediately grabbed the ears of most young people, and then, with the return of the radio waves of the mobile phone, one evaluation after another was transmitted through text messages and phone calls.
So, in the end, it was fed back, and what was formed was the ratings that rose wave after wave on the big screen of Dragon Star Satellite TV's ratings monitoring room.
When the second song of Wuxing Wusu "Lovelorn Front Alliance" started, Tang Xiao wrote down a number on the paper again.
Then, brush it up. Almost in a straight line, the ratings suddenly jumped up, and before Tang Xiao could come back to his senses and see what the number jumped on just now, the curve suddenly jumped up again.
Tang Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Looks like they're really going to be popular!" he thought.
This is certainly a good thing!
In fact, no matter which party it is, the so-called strength, the ratings are one, and the fight for who can launch popular songs is another. A gala, especially a large-scale gala for a national audience. You must have a fairly strong ability to push new people to be qualified, and only if you continue to promote popular newcomers and new songs, you will have a higher evaluation in the eyes of the audience, and wait until the next year. Everyone will subconsciously think that the party is good, and they will turn on the TV and wait to hear the new works that are good.
And so far, although Dragon Star Satellite TV's New Year's Eve song party has always done a good job in this regard, it still owes some heat to the giant of the Spring Festival Gala - the time point of the two sides is too close, and there are good works. Whether it is the singer himself or the company where the singer works, of course, he still wants to try his best to go to the Spring Festival Gala, so over the years, the New Year's Day New Year's Eve Song Party can only pick up leftovers from the Spring Festival Gala or works that cannot be eaten.
But fortunately, at least there can be harvests every year, such as this year's Five Elements Combination!
Take a look at the ratings graph, starting from the second half of their first song after their debut, they actually showed a kind of linear growth, jumping up almost every half minute!
Tang Xiao turned his head to look at the TV screen next to him, because he had already noticed in the afterglow of his eyes that they seemed to have finished singing and were leaving, so he decisively took notes and wrote down the current real-time ratings.
The first data is not long after the debut of Wuxing Wusu, and before the ratings jumped for the first time, it was 6.91%;
The second data is that the second song of Wuxing Wusu has just started singing, and at this time, it is already 7.32%;
The third data is that when Wuxing Wusu stepped down just now, it was already 7.58%!
Tang Xiao subconsciously clenched his fists - it was not yet the peak of ten o'clock, and this data had already exceeded 7.43% of the historical record!
There is no doubt that the party was a success, and the credit is naturally indispensable to him as a director!
Though...... There's a good chance that guy will continue to be a director next year?
Tang Xiao sighed, collected his mood, and continued to stare at the ratings curve on the big screen, but soon he found that although the curve was still steadily rising little by little, showing that the ratings had not yet reached its peak, the extent of its rise had slowed down significantly, I don't know how many times-at this time, I looked back at the front, and found that in the five or six minutes just now, it was really a curve that was infinitely close to a straight line.
On the curve chart that slowly climbs all the way, this curve is so conspicuous and shocking!
There is no doubt that nothing can compare to the convincing power of data!
They're red!
Tang Xiao put down the paper and pen, let out a long breath, and laughed slowly.
…………
It's late at night.
Zhou Yan kept a posture and half-retracted into the sofa, not moving for a long time.
Even though the wind was quietly blowing outside, and it was getting bigger and bigger, she still sat dumbfounded, unconcerned.
There was a click, and it seemed that a branch had been broken by the wind.
She finally blinked, glancing vacantly out of her eyes. Then she took a deep breath, and her whole body gradually came alive - looking at the sky, she knew that it was time to go to bed again.
But. It's really not sleepy.
After thinking about it, she shrank back into the couch.
Inadvertently, my eyes glanced over the coffee table in the shadow of longing, and caught a glimpse of the large cardboard box.
She breathed and suddenly remembered what Zou Wenhuai said when she was leaving. Anyway, I was bored, so I went to the remote control and turned on the TV - the TV is usually watched by Wu's mother while working, so it is very loud!
As soon as it was turned on, the sound came suddenly, in this silent night, it was actually a little scary, but Zhou Yan only frowned slightly, and then directly pressed the mute.
changed a few channels and slowly found Dragon Star TV. She just curled up in the sofa and watched the New Year's Day song party silently.
One goes down, another comes up, they are all acquaintances anyway, their lips open and close, their faces are full of smiles, they wave their hands, they even sing and dance...... Zhou Yan's face was calm, and she watched their quiet performance indifferently.
Then, change it again...... This time it's five people. They are all very beautiful young girls.
This time I jumped harder than before.
It seems to be a specially choreographed dance move, which looks pure and sexy.
This is probably a certain combination that the little genius in Lao Zou's mouth is strongly supporting?
As a singer who has been in the industry for more than ten years, just looking at their dancing range and the speed at which their lips open and close, Zhou Yan knows that they must be singing fast songs...... It's not that no one has released fast songs in China over the years. On the contrary, there are dance music and dance music, but which one is popular?
She suddenly felt that she was really bored, and as soon as Lao Zou seduced and gave some information, she turned on the TV obediently and subconsciously...... Is it really like what he said? Addicted to singing yourself?
Go to the horse's singing!
the horse singing addiction!
She raised her hand and turned off the power and buried herself in the darkness again.
It's just that the wind outside the window seems to be getting tighter.
…………
It can be seen that Dad Li is indeed very happy tonight, a bottle of old wine in Xinghua Village, Li Qian and Mama Li each drank less than one or two, but Dad Li himself drank half a catty!
The alcohol content is not high, and the taste is also very soft and mellow, but the more wine like this, the more stamina it has!
It can be seen that although Li's mother is pressed to prevent her from talking nonsense, in fact, Wang Jinglu's parents took the initiative to carry things to the door and show goodwill, and it was because of his son, Li's father was still very happy.
Half a catty of old wine went down, Dad Li's face was flushed, although he was a little naïve, he looked good, and he didn't show a drunken appearance, so, after eating dumplings, Mama Li made a pot of tea, and the family sat on the sofa while turning on the TV and waiting to watch the party, chatting.
When things came to this point, Li Qian only took half a year to write so many works and earn so much money, as Li's mother said, it is not worse than the money that the two of them have earned in this life, it must have been determined that they have the ability to be financially self-reliant, and economic independence often means the independence of the whole person.
Although Dad Li still hopes that Li Qian can study hard and strive to be admitted to a good university, in fact, he is just talking, and he is no longer ready to force anything for Li Qian.
Therefore, at this time, the father and son sit together and gossip, to a certain extent, it is very much the feeling of the son after he becomes an adult, equal and unrestrained communication - I have to say that this kind of posture makes Dad Li feel more comfortable.
Later, at the beginning of the party, the family of three nestled in the sofa to watch TV - after watching it, it could be twenty or thirty points, Dad Li was already a drunken and confused look, Li Ma and Li Qian looked at each other, both smiled, and didn't care about him, so soon, Dad Li leaned on the sofa and snored slowly.
A strong wind gradually blew outside the window, and the cry was terrible.
Li Qian deliberately walked to the window to take a look, and came back and whispered to Li's mother: "I guess it's really going to snow tonight!"
As soon as he finished speaking, before Mama Li could respond, his mobile phone suddenly rang, Dad Li said "um", blinked his eyes, and woke up - Li Qian smiled, gave Mama Li an apologetic look, and then took out his mobile phone.
The moment he saw the screen, his face was slightly surprised, but he quickly laughed. After connecting the phone, he left the sofa and said with a smile: "Hello Sister Liao Liao, why did you call me at this time?"
Liao Liao on the other end of the phone said, "I don't know where you live." When I arrived at the airport, I took the airport bus out first, but the airport bus dropped me in front of a hotel...... Can you come and pick me up?"
Li Qian was stunned for a moment, "Have you arrived in Jinan?"
Liao Liao said: "That's right!"
With his eyes blinking, Li Qian said, "Okay, you tell me the name of the hotel." I'll pick you up!"
After a pause, Liao Liao said the name of a hotel, Li Qian was a little unfamiliar, so he turned his head and asked Li's mother, but before Li's mother could say, Li's father rubbed his eyes and sat up, told Li Qian where the hotel was, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Li Qian said that Liao Liao is here, let me pick it up.
Dad Li said: "Then you go by car, I heard that the wind outside is not small!"
Li Qian smiled and shook his head. While saying a few words to Liao Liao and asking her to wait, he took his down jacket and walked to the door, hung up the phone, and then he said, "I also drank some wine, don't drive! I'll take a taxi to take a taxi back! uh...... Don't wait for me, go to bed early, I'll go back there at night!"
With that, he got dressed and took the key, pushed the door and went downstairs.
The wind outside was really strong, and all the way out of the community, there were snowflakes falling in the sky from time to time.
Crystal clear snowflakes were blown all over the sky by the howling wind. But the strange thing is that when Li Qian walked out of the community, the wind gradually subsided, and he waited on the side of the road for a while to stop a taxi. The snow began to pick up slowly.
The driver skillfully drove the car through several intersections, and after about ten or twenty minutes, he stopped outside the gate of the hotel that Liao Liao said on the phone.
It was already past ten o'clock in the night, and it was windy again, and there were hardly any people on the street at this time, except for some late-night neon lights still flashing - outside the hotel lobby. Alone stood a girl with long hair and a shawl, and not far from her feet was a suitcase.
She looked like she was wearing a thick dress, but she was so cold that she kept stamping her feet and rubbing her hands.
Li Qian gave the money and told the other party to wait for a while, and then open the door and go down.
At this time, Liao Liao had already turned her head and saw Li Qian, but to Li Qian's surprise, the moment she saw Li Qian, she smiled, turned around and suddenly opened her arms towards Li Qian.
I haven't seen her for half a year, and she has an indescribable moving temperament, self-confidence, calmness, and the kind of calmness and pampering that are unique to successful people.
The bloated down jacket can't hide her tall figure, she still has long black and straight hair, and she still has that beautiful and atmospheric smile, but now she looks like a top superstar.
Li Qian walked over with a smile, and when he walked in front of her, the two looked at each other for a moment, Li Qian didn't speak, and reached out to carry the suitcase at her feet, but at this time, Liao Liao actually stretched his arms in that posture, and at the same time looked at him quietly.
Li Qian was stunned for a moment, then smiled and stretched out his arms.
The two hugged each other slowly.
Friends meet and hug, not to mention that it's still winter, and each other is dressed like a bear, of course, there is no need to have any other ambiguity.
In fact, in the past six months, although the two have only been in contact with each other a few times when they first bought songs, it is absolutely not too much to say that they are friends with each other's phone calls.
So when Li Qian hugged her, he deliberately patted her on the back twice, and asked with a smile: "Why don't you wait in the hotel, how cold it is outside, it was so windy just now!"
But to Li Qian's surprise, Liao Liao hugged very hard.
Li Qian was stunned for a moment, and his breathing instantly eased a little.
However, Li Qian didn't know that at this time, not only was her arm straining, but even her eyes had been quietly closed.
The dim light of the street lamps on the side of the street, the light light from the hotel lobby, and the crystal snowflakes falling overhead reflected all the light around them, mixed into a very strange light and enveloped the two of them.
From time to time, slowly fluttering snowflakes flew over, gently and slowly falling on the heads, shoulders, and bodies of the two of them.
In the taxi, the driver lit a cigarette and squinted at the young man and woman hugging each other.
At this moment, time seems to have stood still.
It's so quiet that you can hear each other's breath.
After a while, Liao Liao opened his eyes, opened his mouth and let out a long stream of hot air, and said in Li Qian's ear: "With you this hug, I suddenly feel steady." ”
Li Qian smiled when he heard this, and then reached out and patted her back lightly twice, but inadvertently landed on her long hair that was hanging down, and said with a smile: "What did you do wrong?
"Heh!" Liao Liao smiled, took a deep breath beautifully, and finally let go of him, "Although it's a little late, I'm here after all, don't tell outsiders that I have no teacher in the future!"
After a pause, she said, "I'm here to worship your old man!"
Li Qian shook his head when he heard this, laughed silently, and subconsciously helped Liao Liao brush off a few snowflakes that floated to his shoulders, and said with a smile: "Didn't you say anything to Teacher Qi before you came?"
Liao Liao shook his head and nodded again, "I heard her say earlier, don't you live in the opposite door? After worshipping you, I will go to her house to eat and drink and rub the bed!"
At this time, the taxi driver took a deep puff of his cigarette, rolled the window and threw it away, then poked half of his arm out of the window, shouting, "I said, can you go home and hug it?"
Li Qian smiled, picked up her suitcase, and said, "Let's go!"
Liao Liao nodded slowly.
At this time, the goose-featherlike snowflakes are fluttering, and the snow is getting bigger and bigger.
