The full name of the International Hotel is Shanghai International Hotel, which was the tallest building in East Asia at that time and was also the most luxurious hotel in Shanghai at that time, which was invested and built by the four major banks (Jincheng, Yanye, Zhongnan and Continental Bank) three years ago, in 1934.

At this time, in the western restaurant of the International Hotel, Fang Hongjian was sitting opposite Liu Rusi, Liu Rusi said with a smile: "Mr. Fang, you try this butterfly cake, which is carefully developed by a French celebrity chef with a unique recipe and baking process, and it is definitely the best butterfly cake in Shanghai." ”

Fang Hong gradually tasted it, and then praised: "Well, the milk is rich, the taste is crispy, and the shape is beautiful, it really deserves to be the best butterfly crisp in Shanghai." ”

Hearing Fang Hongji's praise, Liu Rusi was also very happy, covered her mouth and chuckled: "I thought that Mr. Fang had stayed abroad for many years and should prefer to eat Western food, so I specially booked a Western restaurant, and this butterfly cake is my favorite, so I took the risk of destroying the match and ordered one, I didn't expect you to like it so much." ”

Fang Hong gradually replied with a smile: "To be honest, I feel that there is no country in the world that can compare with my country in terms of diet, in recent years, I have traveled to many countries in Europe, although it is much more developed than China in many aspects such as science and technology, but when it comes to diet, it is too far behind." ”

After chatting for a while, in the interval when Liu Rusi went to the bathroom, Fang Hong was gradually bored while looking at the scenery outside the window, while his fingers unconsciously knocked on the table and hummed a song, but when he was leisurely, he suddenly found that he didn't know that Liu Rusi had walked behind him, and it looked as if he had been standing there for a while, so he apologized very embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Miss Liu, I didn't find out that you had come back just now." ”

Liu Rusi waved her hand and asked another question: "Mr. Fang, which song were you humming just now?" Why don't I ever hear it, is it a foreign song? ”

As a singer who lives by singing, Liu Rusi is extremely sensitive and knowledgeable about music, it can be said that she can sing as long as there are songs that have been circulated on the market, and she sings well, but the song that Fang Hongjian hummed just now, she dared to guarantee that she had never heard it, but the tune of this song was very tactful and beautiful, and then contacted the experience of studying abroad above, so Liu Rusi had this kind of guess.

To be honest, when Liu Rusi asked like this, Fang Hong was really stunned, because humming just now was completely a subconscious behavior, and he didn't deliberately sing which song at all, but fortunately, after a little thought, he still remembered, it turned out that he was humming Teresa Teng's song "See Cooking Smoke Again", and in my memory, this seems to have been sung by Teresa Teng in the past seven years, so it is normal that this Liu Rusi has not heard it.

But in this case, the origin of this song is not easy to explain, and I can't say that I have to pretend to be a copyist, so Fang Hong gradually calmed down and explained with a very shy expression: "Actually, this song was written by me when I was abroad, and I hummed it casually just now, which is really laughable and generous." ”

"Mr. Fang, you are so humble, although I didn't listen to all of them just now, just those few tunes have already made me addicted. Please, sing it all over, okay? Liu Rusi said pleadingly.

Fang Hong gradually turned his head to look at the four directions, and found that there were no other guests in Fang Wei, so he said in a low voice: "Then I will be ugly, in fact, this song is very simple, a total of four sentences." ”

Then he began to sing: "And I saw the smoke rising, and the twilight shining on the earth." Want to ask Burst of Smoke, where are you going?

The sunset is poetic, and the dusk is picturesque. Although the poetry is beautiful, I only have you in my heart!

I saw the smoke rise again, which reminded me of my memories. May you turn into Caixia and fly into my dreams.

The sunset is poetic, and the dusk is picturesque. Although the poetry is beautiful, I only have you in my heart! ”

In fact, when Fang Hong gradually sang to the second paragraph, Liu Rusi couldn't help but hum along, until Fang Hongjian had finished singing, Liu Rusi still didn't come out of the artistic conception of the song for a while, until a long time later, Liu Rusi exhaled lightly and said intoxicatedly: "Mr. Fang, this song of yours is really so beautiful, between the light chanting and singing, it seems to put people in the scene of the sunset in the song, and the whole person's mood suddenly becomes soft and peaceful, really, really a rare classic, in my opinion, It seems that only Mr. Li Shutong's "Farewell Song" can be compared. ”

"Miss Liu, you are a false praise, how can my game be compared to Master Hongyi." Fang Hong hurriedly said modestly.

Although Fang Hongjian also thinks that Mr. Zhuang Nu's "See the Smoke Again" can be called a classic, he believes that even if Mr. Zhuang is alive, he does not dare to claim that his work can be compared with Li Shutong's "Farewell Song", because Mr. Li Shutong's status in China's literary and artistic circles is too high, whether it is music or art, sculpture, calligraphy, drama He has made great contributions, and this "Farewell Song" throughout the twenties to forties is a school song of the domestic new-style school, widely sung and deeply loved. and appeared several times in the film as an interlude. The only thing the two have in common is that the tunes are both from Japan.

Just when Fang Hong was thinking about it, Liu Rusi suddenly gritted her teeth and plucked up the courage to say, "Mr. Fang, I have a reluctant request, I don't know if you can transfer this song to me?" Then he added: "You can rest assured that the price will definitely satisfy you." ”

Regarding Liu Rusi's request, Fang Hong gradually pondered for a while, and then said: "Since Miss Liu, you like this song "See Cooking Smoke Again" so much, then I will give it to you." In fact, Fang Hongjian also considered what he said, firstly, he didn't know what kind of price this song should be, and secondly, he didn't dare to guarantee whether this song "See Cooking Smoke Again" could become popular in the current era, after all, this is a work more than 40 years later, so you might as well explore the way with it, if it can be popular, then even if you rely on copying songs, it will be enough to be free in the future.

"How can that work? You're going to suffer too much, or else, I just have a little yellow croaker here, and you must take it anyway. ”

PS: Some people in the book review say that I have been breaking better for a few days, which is simply nonsense, although I have a lot of records as a eunuch, but very few are interrupted, especially this book, from the day the book was issued to now, where is there a day to break the change?
