Chapter 138: The Most Demanding Song
The next day, after Su Zhe finished selecting the foreign aid group, he began to write songs.
This time, at lunchtime, he announced to all the guests:
"Ladies and gentlemen, I just wrote a new song, and I would like to ask you for some guidance after lunch."
"Another song?" The guests almost went crazy.
"Well, yesterday's parting plot brought back a lot of good memories and a new inspiration."
Su Zhe smiled shyly and innocently, but it made everyone feel that a big demon king was smiling at them.
"Are you still human?"
"I was almost hit by Mr. Su and wanted to quit the music scene."
"Let's go together, the young man is too fierce to stand it."
The reaction of the barrage is even more exaggerated:
[I used it for a day before, but this time I just came to a song in half a day? ] 】
[Okay! There's a new song to listen to! I'm so happy, my favorite singer is Su Zhe! 】
[I'm so, my favorite singer wrote a song in a year. 】
[Hehe, what I like, it's only been more than ten years since one song came out! ] Is it too much of a deposit? 】
[Su Zhe wrote songs, giving me a feeling of updating online articles. 】
[Who made him too talented? I really can't hold it back! 】
Su Zhe only smiled and looked at the guests and barrage.
The guests all felt that they couldn't eat and ate a few bites hastily, so they put down the tableware and asked Su Zhe to simply sing in the restaurant.
Su Zhe was helpless:
"I need a piano, I don't have it here, let's go to the conference room, the program team has a piano."
So a group of people came to the conference room again.
Su Zhe sat on a stool.
His current piano playing level is [advanced], professional performance level, not false at all.
"Then I'll bring you the ...... "Farewell"
"Farewell", this is the lyrics written by Uncle Li, composed by John Pound Otway (the original song "Dreaming of Home and Mother").
This song has been sung by many singers from the Republic of China to modern times, including the Tang Dynasty Band, Pu Shu, Han Hong, etc., but Su Zhe's favorite is the children's version.
To be honest, as an old song, this song is of high quality, but whether it is sought after in modern times, Su Zhe does not have hope, after all, the form is too different from modern songs.
But Li Shutong's words are too strong! Comparing this writer and a modern musician to lyrics is simply a dimensionality reduction blow.
Pu Shu even said that if he could write this kind of word, it would be worth dying on the spot.
Compared with "Farewell", "Those Flowers" and "Gardenia Blossom" may be able to achieve more musical achievements, but they are far from qualified.
Therefore, Su Zhe still made up his mind and chose this song that may fail:
"This is an immature work, and I hope everyone will be happy."
Hearing his words, the barrage played frantically:
[Su Zhe redefines "immaturity"! 】
[The so-called "immature" means that you can get the top spot on the hit list if you take it out and change it! ] 】
[The other guests' faces are green! How dare they say anything? 】
[Hehe, I'll see you laughing happily.] Laugh, laugh, you'll cry in a while! 】
[Mature listeners, already taking out tissues, ready to cry.] 】
[The more mature listeners have finished crying.] I'll cry first, casually. 】
Su Zhe finally played the piano, and the melodious tune was amazing, I didn't expect his piano level to be so superb.
But no one expressed amazement, after all, he was a person who could teach alto, and playing the piano was just a basic skill.
With the music, Su Zhe opened his mouth and sang with a slightly childlike feeling:
[Outside the long pavilion, by the ancient road,
The grass is green.
The evening breeze blows the willow flute,
Sunset Mountain Outer Mountain. 】
Song Hui covered his mouth and looked at Su Zhe in disbelief, preventing himself from interrupting the music.
But he roared madly in his heart:
"How is that possible? Su Zhe is not writing lyrics, he is writing poems directly! ”
Except for Lin Shan'er, all the guests were extremely shocked.
Su Zhe continued to sing:
[The end of the sky, the corner of the earth,
Half of the acquaintances are scattered.
A pot of turbid wine is full of joy,
Don't dream cold tonight. 】
At this moment, the barrage also feels wrong:
[Wait, my language level is poor, may I ask which ancient poem is this?] 】
[I'm not good at poetry, but I'll search!] There is no such word! It was original by Su Zhe! 】
【??? 】
[It's not that I don't believe it, but Su Zhe plays music to write lyrics? 】
In the eyes of ordinary people, although they are all arts, there is a world of difference between the status of those who play music and those who are literati.
Immediately someone popularized science:
[In fact, ancient words can also be sung according to word cards, so lyricists and modern lyricists are similar. 】
[But the level is far behind!] 】
[Of course, those who used to write lyrics were elites, literati and ink writers! Now......]
[But why do I think that Su Zhe's words are similar to those of ancient literati? 】
As an old song, "Farewell" has a long solo time, and there are no complicated passages, it is very simple, repeating the melody:
[Outside the long pavilion, by the ancient road,
The grass is green.
Ask you when you will go,
Don't linger when you come. 】
[The end of the sky, the corner of the earth,
Half of the acquaintances are scattered.
Life is a rare gathering,
There are only many separations. 】
After Su Zhe finished singing, Lin Shan'er couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and exclaimed:
"That's the end of it?"
From the perspective of a musician, she felt that this song was too simple, not like a modern song at all, and couldn't help but worry about Su Zhe.
Now that Su Zhe is praised so highly, if a mediocre song is released, it will definitely be immediately countered by public opinion, which makes Lin Shaner very worried.
But she was surprised to find that the other guests did not notice the quaintness of the musical form, and their attention was all attracted by the lyrics:
"Teacher Su, this teacher is sincere! If you were born in ancient times, you would definitely become a poet and a writer! ”
Su Zhe smiled, but unfortunately before modern times, there was no difference between the parallel world and the previous life, and Li Du's poems were still passed down by thousands of mouths, otherwise he could be a poet immortal in modern times.
But Li Shutong is enough to kill all musicians in seconds.
Su Zhe did not mention the lyrics, and said humbly from other aspects:
"Everyone praised it, but the song was not completed enough, and there was no arrangement idea."
Arrangement is a modern pop sound concept, and "Farewell" certainly doesn't.
But those are all technical problems, and all the problems seem insignificant under the lyrics of "Farewell".
Not only were the guests amazed, but the barrage was also blowing.
As mentioned before, China may be the country with the highest average literary literacy of the masses-
Who didn't memorize 300 Tang poems when they were young?
As long as you memorize it, even if you forget it later, you can only say "it", and you can feel the beauty of poetry.
[Some people said before that Su Zhe was a folk poet. It's small, it's really small! 】
He is a poet! 】
[Just don't write songs in the future, it's a waste of talent! ] Go write poetry! 】
[The musicians are starving to death, I didn't expect you to let him be a poet who can't eat? ] Too bad! 】
[Wait, if Su Zhe is dying of hunger, can you come and eat my soft rice? 】
[Many literati rely on rich women to support them, this is a tradition! ] 】
[(Yukun) When the literati have a rich woman to raise? Where is such a good thing?! 】
[Hitting the street is not a literati! ] 】
Entertainment text, copying ancient poems is boring, and I will not copy poems without doing my job. The setting is the same in ancient times, and there is a difference from modern times, so it can be copied from Li Shutong.
