Chapter 457: Rich Activities (Part II)
It's Hao Cuifang's turn to sing again.
The song is called "So You're Here Too".
I love Hao Cuifang's voice and appreciate her singing. To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that I could hear Xiao Hao singing, I would have felt unbearable for today's event.
In fact, I have always disliked low and enclosed spaces, and even if the decoration is luxurious, it still makes me feel depressed.
I also don't like dim lighting, some people say it makes you feel free and relaxed, but I feel the opposite.
The melody of the song is beautiful!
It was the first time I had heard this song, but I was immediately captivated by the deep and vicissitudes of emotion described in this song.
Hao Cuifang's voice interprets the song perfectly:
- Allow me to settle the dust
The past was buried with silence
Covered in wind and rain, I came from the sea
to live in seclusion in this desert
What should be concealed is always clear
A thousand words can only be speechless
Love is a superstition at the right time and place
Oh, so you're here, too
Yes! That one
Does it only exist in dreams?
Why did I use all my strength
But in exchange for half a lifetime of memories
If it weren't for your desire for eyes
If it weren't for my salvation mood
Meet in the mountains and rivers and the sea of people
Oh! So you're here too!
Ahh That person, does it only exist in dreams" Listening to the lyrics, Andrei's deep and focused blue eyes appeared in front of my eyes again.
After more than three years of separation, I seem to have really missed Andre only a handful of times.
Is it because I've been struggling to cope with the changes in my life over the past few years? Or am I just a heartless person? I don't know why.
From the beginning I felt that there was no loneliness and loss in my life, to now, I can hardly remember Andre on a day that is not a holiday, and my change is so natural and without any signs.
It dawned on me that I wasn't as inseparable from André as I thought.
It's not as others think – I'm not anxious about our relationship! Rather, we often forget about our relationship.
In my mind, Andre is my Andre to me, I love him, our love is so pure, so pure, that I never seem to feel like I have to add him a boyfriend, or a fiancé or something. And in this way, we can confirm the ownership of each other.
Perhaps Andrei was not the one I was associating with in the first place according to this requirement and purpose. Therefore, I have never asked him specifically in this regard, and I have not thought much about how Andre should take on such a position.
Was it that from the very beginning, there was too much uncertainty in my relationship with Andrei?
Perhaps, in my subconscious, this uncertainty has always existed. It subtly prepared me for the separation from Andre.
Now I think of Andrei, and there is an inexplicable dreamlike melancholy and sentimentality. I can't figure out how this feeling came from?
Hao Cuifang finished singing, but the moving melody still lingered in my ears.
- "You really don't sing a song?" I turned my head to the side and asked with a smile when I saw Gao Chao sitting next to me.
- "I can't sing anything, oh, why don't you sing it?" I replied with a smile.
I suddenly realized that there was another person who didn't show the slightest interest in singing.
He whispered in my ear:
- "I don't like KTV as much as you do!" ”
Hearing his words, the two of us couldn't help but glance at each other and smile tacitly.
- "Then you still suggest that I come?" I asked him in a whisper.
Gao Chao took a sip of beer and said meaningfully:
- "Linna, I said today that this is a group activity, and it seems that you agree with this name!" How so? People, it's better to be easy-going.
For the New Year, I wish my mother-in-law and father-in-law. My daughter-in-law's two brothers and sisters-in-law are also there, and after eating, they are playing mahjong, but I'm really not interested! Alas......"
- "If you're not interested, don't play!" I said
- "Linna, didn't you say you wanted to do as the locals did? What is Vulgar? That's it! Most people's preferences are king, if you really don't follow, it's called not easy-going! Hehe......" Gao smirked self-deprecatingly.
- "Thank you! Gao Tuo, if you hadn't hinted that I should have come today, I might not have participated! I've never been a person who doesn't know much about human feelings, so in the future, if there's anything I can't do, please remind me more. I whispered to him.
- "Linna, you have really been abroad for too long, Chinese people have their own habits and routines for doing things, not as simple and direct as foreigners." To be accepted by a group, you need to know more about the doorways inside.
For example, let's sing today, there are many connotations in it, you can taste it slowly! Gao Chao said.
- "Gao Flip, actually, I also like music, but I'm not used to the form of KTV entertainment. I whispered
Gao Chao looked at me and smiled and said:
- "Linna, you're such a hairy man. Hey, it's no wonder that KTV is a form of entertainment that is really only popular in East Asia, and I think Mao Zi likes to play his own soundtracks: guitar, accordion, piano or something, this is also their entertainment tradition!"
I looked at him, and Gao Chao continued:
- "Actually, you don't just see KTV singing as a means of entertainment. In a sense, it is a pleasurable activity, a way for many people to vent their minds.
Asians always like to vent their psychological depression by going to KTV. What should I do if I'm bored and bored? Go to KTV and yell twice. Hey hey ......"
I listened to Chubby and Skinny Monkey pulling Lu Tao to sing "True Hero" together.
Listening to their hoarse cries out of tune, I seemed to understand at once why they had come to sing.
- "In addition, KTV has a strong communication function. Asian cultures, represented by China, Japan, and South Korea, are mostly based on "collectivism" and put interpersonal relationships in the first place.
The pleasant environment of KTV can not only gather popularity, but also deepen understanding and enhance feelings: maybe a silent colleague has an amazing explosive power when singing, and a serious leader may change a person in KTV. Everyone can show up here in a different way. You see, people don't really come here to enjoy music, singing is just a means of communication.
No way, Asians are usually too depressed, just like the body is always maintaining a posture, can you not get tired after a long time? What to do? Then stretch and change your position, hehe......
The ancient Chinese culture of "silence is golden" influenced Asian countries, and Asians rarely vented negative emotions due to the constraints of etiquette.
Linna, what Chinese is most afraid of is offending people, and in this kind of heart, the fighting nation is the most difficult to understand, hahaha......
And K songs start with songs, accompanied by alcohol, which is very suitable for relieving the stagnation in the chest. Gao Chao laughed
- "But I don't feel relaxed! I said puzzled.
- "Linna, don't you really like the environment here?" Gao Chao asked slyly
I sucked the juice and nodded knowingly and said:
- "I think it's uncomfortable for so many people to be in such a claustrophobic environment, and I like that...... Forget it, let's not talk about it, in short, I'm a pretty awkward person, and I'm very repulsive to the entertainment venues in Russia that are opened in basements. ”
- "Huh...... Lina, this is your favorite preference.
However, it is true that Europeans and Americans are not very interested in karaoke! I think it has something to do with their national character, where the "individualism" that speaks freely in Western culture is the mainstream, and everyone's personality is very open, even egoistic.
Therefore, the people there do not like the expression of the oriental winding path. This one is so unpleasant, hehe......
In addition, Europeans and Americans have good physical strength and prefer sports and being close to nature. Compared with Europe and the United States, Asia seems to have more small people, and entertainment is more indoors.
The vast majority of traditional entertainment methods are European-American and indoor-oriented, and this difference has also caused a difference in the degree of acceptance of karaoke as a form of entertainment in the East and the West.
Linna, I can totally understand how you feel in your heart!
However, at present, KTV is the most popular leisure and entertainment method in China, and you must not show too many doubts and dislikes. If you make everyone think that you are too different, you will be excluded! Gao Chao said earnestly.
