"But in the vast sea of people,

Met by chance,

Who knows how to break through all the iron shoes,

Only for a moment,

Doomed to fall between your brows.

Beauty, teenager,

The tangles planted in previous lives.

Marriage, red line,

We invite you to live side by side ......"

As the title song of the album "Youth Tour", "Youth Tour" became popular almost within a few hours.

The beauty of youth, the innocence of love, the wonder of encounters, the pursuit of marriage, the beautiful melody, the ancient lyrics, Zhang Xuehua's interpretation, all kinds of factors are fused together, so that this song hits everyone's heart like a bullet, and they can't give up.

And people are also beginning to wonder, is this the so-called Chinese style?

They continued to listen and were pleasantly surprised.

The fourth song on the album is titled "Half a City of Smoke and Sand".

"Some love is like a broken paper kite,

The ending is sad and the rest of the hands are on the line.

Some hatred is like a circle,

There is no end to the retribution of grievances.

Just to fulfill a long-cherished wish,

And how much blood will be paid ......"

is different from the brisk nature of "Youth Tour", "Half the City of Smoke and Sand" is much heavier, telling a story of blood and fire.

Zhang Xuehua's interpretation is also very unique, on the surface it looks tepid and unmoving, but between the lines, in every syllable and every sentence of his singing, it is like a "button" in a storytelling, a "pit" in an online article, and a "suspense" in a TV series, holding people's hearts tightly, as if waiting for a battle that is about to break out!

"Youth Tour" sings about a relaxed little love.

"Half a City of Smoke and Sand" sings about the dignified vicissitudes of history.

The same is the strong Chinese style in the lyrics, soundtrack, arrangement, performance, and choice of instruments. The integration of ancient tunes makes people feel like they have returned to a bygone era.

Sometimes generous and sad, sometimes affectionate, sometimes swords, sometimes swords, sometimes flowers before the moon......

After listening to "Youth Tour" and then listening to "Half a City of Smoke and Sand", many people have a little understanding of the word Huafeng.

And when they heard the last song of the album "Tea Soup" in one go. A beautiful picture unfolded in my mind.

"The mountains are like clouds of smoke on a teacup,

The color is getting lighter,

I'm going farther and farther,

There are so many words that I want to say in front of you,

Say it again

The terraced fields outside the window behind you,

Like once upon a time,

You stand in the tea plantation and look up at the sky.

Imagine I'm on the other side of the mountain......"

There are actually two versions of "Tea Soup", which tell the thoughts of a pair of lovers about each other when they drink tea soup after separation.

The earliest version of the Ming Meng school is composed by Chen Jiehan, and the lyricist is Jay Chou's royal lyricist and good friend Fang Wenshan, so it has a strong national flavor.

It's a pity that this song was not popular at that time, and disappeared with the Ming Meng faction.

Tai Zhengxiao in 2007 and Yu Kewei in 2011 covered this song "Tea Soup" respectively, one sang the boys' version and the other sang the girls' version, each with its own wonders and charms.

This time, Zhou Lin chose the original version of the Ming Meng faction. In Zhang Xuehua's tender interpretation, there is a little more tenderness than the Mingmeng faction. There is a touch of relaxation more than Tai Zhengxiao, and a little more depth than Yu Kewei.

The melody of this song is extremely beautiful, coupled with the Chinese style words and phrases under Fang Wenshan's brilliant brushstrokes, the story is presented in the ears of the audience, coupled with Zhang Xuehua's affectionate telling, it is difficult not to be moved by the story.

Ten songs on one album. The length of each song is about four minutes, and many people will listen to it in one sitting after buying it.

After listening, a feeling of unfinished content came to my heart, and I couldn't help but listen to it again and again. Listen to it again......

Over and over again, the mood when listening to "Youth Tour", the solemn and low when listening to "Half a City of Smoke and Sand", and the tenderness when listening to "Tea Soup", each song brings people different psychological feelings, but the common thing is that kind of rich ancient style and ancient rhyme, the afterglow of China's long history and culture is lightly integrated into everyone's ears and minds, so that they suddenly realize that the ancient music of our country is such a big treasure!

After listening to it three times, Wang Liming took a deep breath, rushed to the computer, opened the Sihai forum he went to most often, and made a post.

"I just finished listening to "Huafeng", I want to ask you what is Huafeng music?"

Not only Wang Liming, but many people are also holding the same confusion. They don't have much knowledge about music, they just tell whether a song is good or not based on their feelings, and they don't know much about what type and style the song is, and what is unique about the long hair.

They all like the songs in this "Huafeng" album, but they also found that the three songs of "Youth Tour", "Half City Smoke and Sand" and "Tea Soup" are different, as for the difference, they can't tell the difference, some people go to ask friends, and some people simply post on the Internet for help.

In Pingyin's dormitory, Li Yizhe, a long-haired student, sat excitedly in front of the computer, his fingers "crackling" on the keyboard.

He is writing an article on appreciating "Hua Feng", using some of the professional knowledge he learned in school to analyze what kind of wind the so-called Hua Feng is.

“…… First of all, the national instruments selected for the soundtrack, I can roughly hear that there are pipa, flute, guzheng, erhu and dulcimer, etc. These instruments, which occupy an important place in the history of Chinese music, appear in modern arrangements, adding a sense of the vicissitudes of the golden years to the genre. The most valuable thing is that these instruments are not gimmicks, and the performance of each instrument plays an important role in the arrangement!"

“…… The second is the use of ancient tunes and ancient rhymes, although many professional musicians currently believe that the five-tone ancient tunes of China are not suitable for modern music, judging from the tones of these songs, although they do not completely use ancient tunes and ancient rhymes, they have made some bold attempts. So can we think that in the near future, concerts that really use ancient styles and tunes will come to our ears?"

“…… The second is the rich Chinese elements in the lyrics and songs, such as the words and sentences like poetry, various singing elements similar to those in dramas, and the arrangement of stories with ancient meanings, etc. Together, these elements form the core of the song, which is the Chinese tradition. ”

“…… To sum up, I think the key to Chinese style songs lies in the word 'Hua', which is a kind of song with strong national characteristics, whether it is lyrics or songs, they are born from China's long history and culture, and it is a great innovation in modern music!"

After all, Li Yizhe is only a sophomore, and his ability to analyze and appreciate is not too high, and this article only analyzes some characteristics of Chinese style songs from the surface, but he is the first person to theoretically define "Chinese style songs".

So this article became popular with Zhang Xuehua's "Hua Feng" album, and two hours after its release, it received thousands of follow-ups, and was forwarded to many other forums, and even appeared on the 24-hour hot comment list of the Four Seas Forum!

Not only this article, but in fact, in many places on the Internet, as long as it is related to "Huafeng", "Zhang Xuehua" and "Juvenile Tour Bancheng Yansha Tea Soup" will be sought after and commented, and countless people are discussing what the Chinese style songs created by this album are, and whether it will cause a wave of Chinese style.

The media are like cats that smell the smell of salted fish, keenly discovering the topic, some interviewing the audience, some asking veterans in the circle, and some simply calling Feiner Records, hoping to get an answer.

They all want to know how Zhang Xuehua came up with the style of Chinese style and how the music is made. (To be continued.) )
