Chapter 1: Rebirth
"Hong Yue Shen Mei"
-- The motto of Huaguang Art School.
Zhang Huiyan of the Qing Dynasty once said in the "Selected Words Order": "Wen Tingyun is the highest in the Tang Dynasty, and his words are profound and beautiful. "The words advocated should be written in a deep, beautiful, and thick manner.
The so-called "Hong" here means that the knowledge should be broad; "Covenant" is a careful choice on the basis of learning; "Deep" is the spirit of study; "Beauty" means that zuihou achieves perfection.
These four words, now hanging high in the lobby of the main building of Huaguang Art School, as the school motto, always teach the students of Huayi to have a broad mind and vision, to the endless trek to the peak of art, to be ambitious, and to struggle.
Turn around and smile.
Zuihou glanced at the four-character school motto, and Du Xinghe left the art vocational high school where he had only been in school for two years.
Dropping out of school is a painful thing for any 16-year-old boy.
Du Xinghe disagreed.
Even, from his resolute and restrained eyes, you can feel that he is still looking forward to this.
In fact, three months ago, Du Xinghe was still on another earth plane, depressed and pursuing his dream of music.
In that plane, Du Xinghe studied pop music for four years at the Central Conservatory of Music, minoring in composition and Western classical music, which can be described as talented and outstanding. Before graduating, he was signed by Chengtian Entertainment, the most popular record company in the mainland.
But just when he was about to release his first creative album, the fact that he cuckolded Chengtian's top management was revealed.
During the 10-year brokerage contract signed between Du Xinghe and Chengtian Entertainment, Du Xinghe was not allowed to write songs, Du Xinghe was not allowed to compose, Du Xinghe was not allowed to make any records, he was not allowed to participate in any commercial performances, and he was not even allowed to expose this arrogant genius by any media!
A rising star was drowned in the sea of people.
Ten years, ten years!
How many decades does a person have to waste!
Depressed and survived the most precious and bleak period of his life, on his 31st birthday, Du Xinghe, who had drunk too much, was hit by a car on the way home.
After waking up, he came to this new shijie and entered the body of this boy who was also named Du Xinghe.
In this shijie, 16-year-old Du Xinghe and his father Du Shan were also involved in a car accident.
Dushan tragically passed away in a car accident.
Du Xinghe, who has changed his soul, has magically awakened.
For the three months since his rebirth, Du Xinghe has been lying in the hospital, increasing his understanding of this new shijie through the residual memories in his brain and reading various newspapers and books.
It was still 1992 A.D., mobile phones were not yet popular, and the Internet had not yet appeared.
The history of China here, before the Xinhai Revolution, is exactly the same as before the crossing of the Du Xinghe River.
But during the Xinhai Revolution, a great dictator named Zhang Bin appeared here, as if he was also a traveler, Zhang Bin overthrew the feudal imperial system at that time, unified the warlords everywhere, and established a powerful new Chinese empire.
Later, there were also Japanese who wanted to invade China, but the outcome was completely different.
In this plane, the new China ruled by Zhang Bin was beaten by the Japanese, and immediately counterattacked, swinging the butcher's knife directly into the Japanese island.
If it weren't for the intervention of the Zuihou Americans, Japan in this plane would have become a sacred and inalienable part of the territory of the Chinese Empire, just like the two Koreas.
Since then, the highly unified centralized system has allowed the economy of the Chinese Empire to grow by leaps and bounds, almost surpassing the United States and Russia, and becoming the first power in Shijie.
In 1966, the king of the country died, and the empire then had several major upheavals, serious economic setbacks, and great strides back, allowing a powerful country like the United States to take the opportunity to throw off the gap again, and even small Japan was a bit of a tendency to catch up.
However, no matter how frustrated it is, the Chinese economy of this plane is still much stronger than Shijie where Du Xinghe once lived.
This is evident in the boom of the record industry.
Du Xinghe is a singer who has studied music all his life, and he is very concerned about the pop music market here.
According to his observations, this shijie in 1992, CD players have become widely popular. When he was hospitalized, almost all the little nurses in the hospital listened to CDs, and very few listened to cassettes.
And this shijie, the Chinese area has a very strong awareness of copyright protection in music, movies, novels and other cultural industries, and the piracy crackdown is very strong, and it is rare to see pirated CDs on the market, coupled with a relatively haode economic environment, people who like to listen to songs here, almost without exception, will buy genuine CDs, which makes the pop music albums here, the sales are amazing!
According to the newspaper, in 1991 alone, there were as many as 15 new Chinese albums that sold more than 10 million copies in Greater China!
And the singer Andy Cheung, who is at the top of the list, has sold a terrifying 29 million copies of his new album "Love to Dream"!
This is still a single-year sales statistic.
If you look at the total sales, the Chinese singers here can kill the previous European and American pop singers in seconds!
This shows how strong the economy is here.
The more he got to know it, the more Du Xinghe was shocked by the "madness" of this shijie.
During the three months he spent lying in the hospital, he spent almost every night reflecting on the past and looking forward to the future.
In the previous Shijie, he was hidden by Chengtian Entertainment for a whole decade, and he missed too much beauty.
Now that he has come to such a civilized and maddening era, and has been reborn back to the age of 16, Du Xinghe swears that he must get back what he once missed, a thousand times and a hundred times!
He didn't want to live a depressed life anymore.
He's going to explode!
Burn every inch of skin and create a legend that truly belongs to him!
After being discharged from the hospital, Du Xinghe's first decision was to drop out of Huaguang Art School and devote himself to running the independent record company left by his father, "Yun Shijie".
