Chapter Twenty-Nine: Bright as Poetry
On the way to Nishizawa Academy of Fine Arts, Gu Bei received a call from Zhang Ruoran.
Zhang Ruoran told him to go to his house for dinner tomorrow.
Gu Bei nodded and agreed, he was looking for an opportunity to visit Zhang Ruoran's father Zhang Qiguang, one of the leaders of the preparatory team of Zhang Qiguang's cultural column project, he wanted to win this project, and Zhang Qiguang's help was indispensable.
The second round of the National Campus Singer Contest is the top 32 finals knockout round, 32 campus singers from various competition areas across the country will gather in Qingchuan City for a new round of PK to determine the top 16, among them, three of the five finalists in the Qingchuan Division are related to Gu Bei, namely Jin Shengze, Tian Tian and Zhang Ruoran, Zhang Ruoran is the most famous and strongest, and is the favorite candidate for the championship of this campus singer competition.
During the audition, Zhang Ruoran's song "Long Time No See" was really amazing, this girl's voice is pure and textured, ethereal and warm, as rock singer Zhao Jun said, Zhang Ruoran's singing voice is like a combination of Faye Wong and Stefanie Sun, it is indeed strong, and the audition launched the representative work of the singer Eason Chan "Long Time No See", which is not surprising that it was rated as the biggest favorite by the outside world.
Gu Bei didn't know about it carefully, but he also knew that the song "Long Time No See" dominated the current domestic popular music charts, and most of them were ranked first, as the songwriter of this song, Gu Bei has recently received calls from many music companies and big names in the music industry, most of them are inviting songs to cooperate and other things, but he politely declined them all.
From a certain point of view, those classic songs in his previous life were his resources to promote and broaden his network, but they were not enough to become the capital for him to enter the music scene or become a singer.
For Zhang Ruoran's dream of becoming a singer, Gu Bei is very attentive, there are many reasons for this, the realistic point is because Zhang Ruoran is the pearl of Zhang Qiguang, the deputy minister of propaganda, and the hypocrisy is because of the friendship with Zhang Ruoran, so for the top 32 knockout tournament this time, Gu Bei specially tailored "The Year in a Hurry" for Zhang Ruoran.
This song is very suitable for Zhang Ruoran's singing, coupled with Zhang Ruoran's strength, it is no problem to achieve a good result. You must know that "The Year of Hurry" was released 5 days ago, and the number of playbacks easily exceeded 20 million, known as "the first golden song of 2014", which is the most classic song after Faye Wong and Li Yapeng divorced and came back again.
In fact, compared to Faye Wong, Gu Bei preferred Faye Wong's first husband Dou Wei, when he was in college, Gu Bei was obsessed with Dou Wei's "No Land for Self-Respect", listened to it repeatedly, listened to it all night, but unfortunately Dou Wei at that time had broken away from the Black Panther Band and divorced Faye Wong, who was the queen of heaven, Gu Bei thought that the reason for the divorce was that Dou Wei could not tolerate this perfect legend of a talented woman and a beautiful husband and a wife, and how vulgar and unbearable it was to bear this kind of legend! Later, Dou Wei's questioning of the perfect life and unconventional tastes made him choose a remote path in life. Perfection means boring, and life is better than boring.
In a circle, Buick arrived at the gate of Nishizawa Academy of Fine Arts.
Gu Bei called Xia Nuo, after coming to Qingchuan at the beginning of school, he hadn't seen Nuo Nuo, and he finally managed to squeeze out some time to come to the pier today.
Nono answered the phone, said he was in the dormitory, and asked him to wait for her.
Gu Bei nodded and said okay.
Hung up the phone, Gu Bei and Zhao Tuo got out of the car, it was already more than six o'clock in the afternoon, it was getting late, Zhao Tuo, who was hanging on the door, leaned on the car door and looked at the girls coming and going at the gate of Nishizawa Academy of Fine Arts: "There are so many beauties here, it's not a loss to the Academy of Arts, it seems that our sister-in-law is a big beauty." ”
Gu Bei immediately blew up: "Needless to say, your sister-in-law is known as a flower in Nishizawa Academy of Fine Arts." ”
Zhao Tuo snorted: "I think you are a lover." ”
Gu Bei was unhappy: "Damn, even your little brother's vision still has to be questioned?"
Zhao Tuo said don't mind, we have to seek truth from facts.
Chatting, Gu Bei saw Nuo Nuo's figure flashing out from a distance, she was wearing a blue shirt and a black woolen coat, and her delicate little face was glowing with warm light under the sunset. After not seeing him for many days, Gu Bei felt inexplicable joy in his heart, and took Zhao Tuo to greet him.
"Hello sister-in-law. The cynical Zhao Tuo came up.
"Call me what?" Nono wrinkled his delicate nose and his black and white eyes glared at the boss.
"Sister-in-law, this seems to be the right name. Zhao Tuo pouted towards Gu Bei, and Nuo Nuo turned his head to look at Gu Bei.
Gu Bei smiled: "What, this is my buddy Zhao Tuo, he has nothing to hide, don't take what he says to heart." ”
Zhao Tuo said: "No, Brother Xiaobei, didn't you let me call it that before." ”
No one speaks when you're dumb!
Gu Bei really wanted to call Zhao Tuo to Iceland with two big buses.

Gu Bei hadn't eaten at the Nishizawa Academy of Fine Arts, Nuo Nuo said that he wanted to eat hot pot, so Gu Bei took her and Zhao Tuo to a Yanjing mutton hot pot restaurant near the Nishizawa Academy of Fine Arts.
Gu Bei and Nuo Nuo sat together, Zhao Tuo sat opposite each other, ordered something hot pot on the table, Zhao Tuo took out a cigarette and handed it to Gu Bei, when Gu Bei took out a lighter and lit a cigarette, Nuo Nuo reached out and threw his cigarette, Gu Bei didn't say anything, Zhao Tuo, who preferred not to die, was particularly surprised: "Brother Xiaobei, it turns out that you are tracheitis." ”
Gu Bei snorted: "You kid knows a lot, I'm afraid that my father is filial piety, and I'm afraid that my wife is love!"
Nuno rolled his eyes: "You're really shameless." ”
Gu Bei scratched his head, "How can I say that, I'm obviously sacrificing my dignity for love." ”
Zhao Tuo covered his cheeks and said, "Ouch, your teeth are really sore." ”
Gu Bei slapped his head and face: "So many delicious things can't stop your stinky mouth, right?" ”
"Cheng, you are the boss, you are reasonable. Zhao Tuo took chopsticks and ate it, the mutton hot pot in this store tasted really good, the tender and chewy fat mutton was dipped in the rich sesame garlic hot sauce, and it tasted full of oil.
Halfway through the meal, Zhao Tuoyi wiped his mouth and said that he was full, sister-in-law, you and my little brother Bei eat slowly, and I will leave first.
Seeing Zhao Tuo's light bulb get out, Gu Bei was particularly hypocritical and kept two sentences, not to mention how happy he was, it was a mistake to bring this kid, he turned his head and sighed to Nuo Nuo: "This kid, eating a meal is in a hurry, not stable at all." ”
"You mainly want to say that you are very steady. ”
"Needless to say, there are not many handsome and mature men like me on the market, so I picked up such a big bargain for you and had fun. ”
"Yo Yo Yo, it's starting to be thick again. Nuo Nuo squinted and smiled, and stuffed a large piece of foie gras that Gu Bei likes to eat into Gu Bei's bowl: "Don't talk, eat." ”
After dinner, Gu Bei sent Nuo Nuo back to school.
The two of them walked back, it was late at night, the street lamps were lit on both sides of the road, the Nishizawa Academy of Fine Arts was picturesque, and the large camphor trees connected into a green ocean, and the warm lights dotted on it, like a sea of stars, but Gu Bei only saw Nuo Nuo and her delicate little face under the warm street lamp.
Nono held the raspberry juice in her hand, her steps were as light as a fawn, and the early spring evening breeze blew through and gently lifted the fine bangs on her forehead.
In the quiet passage of time, Gu Bei looked at her bright and poetic face, and occasionally pursed the smile that appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he couldn't help but think of a poem by Tagore: "You smile slightly, and don't say anything to me, and I feel that I have been waiting for this for a long time." ”
