Chapter 430: Too Gu Qingge

Because before releasing the new song [Remembering Jiangnan], he didn't try to hype up Gu Qingge like he did before, which resulted in "his" big-budget album not causing much of a stir right after it was released. Music fans are still discussing the new season of "The Road to the King of Songs"...

However, gold will always shine. [Remembering Jiangnan] has already proved his talent. He is also unique among independent musicians!

[Remembering Jiangnan] not only released songs for himself, but also wrote other songs for others, such as some Chinese-style and ancient-style songs that were popular for a while, such as "Xiao", "Half Life Snow", "A Bridge of Fate", etc.

Among them, "A Bridge of Fate" is also the ending song of the movie "The Great Wall" by the famous Chinese director "National Master" Zhang.

Of course, the movie "The Great Wall" was a complete failure in terms of word of mouth, but as the saying goes, bad movies can produce great songs, and this song "A Bridge of Fate" was indeed popular for a while.

【Remembering Jiangnan】I did not sing this song myself. It was sung by the music talent Wang Liqin and the powerful female singer Qin Weiwei, and it once dominated the hot song charts.

However, songs like "Xiao" and "Half Life Snow" were still criticized by some music fans. They believed that "Remembering Jiangnan", which once boasted of its high-end style, had gone down the path of writing internet-famous songs to make money. No wonder "he" no longer complains about Gu Qingge...

Perhaps this is what it means that the dragon slayer will eventually become the dragon?

This time, when Yi Jiangnan's new album was released, everyone started to complain before they even started listening to his songs -

"Uncle Nan has really been smoothed over. He doesn't even bother trying to get attention by using Gu Qingge as a pretext before releasing a song..."

"That's right. Right now, Gu Qingge's new song 'Left Hand Pointing to the Moon' is a huge hit. If it was the old song 'Remembering Jiangnan', how could someone like Ding Dasheng be the one to criticize Gu Qingge?"

"It's been so long since Boss Jiangnan has criticized Gu Qingge. He's just an emotionless song-releasing machine now!"

"It's all because everyone was crazy about the Nanzi and Gezi memes back then, mocking Uncle Jiangnan for being a money-grubber. Now, he's done it to the end."

"So what's the quality of this new album, and is it worth buying the whole album package?"

"It's definitely not worth it. It's good enough to have two or three catchy songs. Now "Remembering Jiangnan" has lost its original meaning!"

…

Many music fans did not have high expectations for his songs before listening to the album "Remembering Jiangnan", and even strongly suspected that he was just writing songs to please his fans.

However, there are also some music fans who are still quite confident in the talent of "Remembering Jiangnan". They still like "Remembering Jiangnan" even those internet celebrity songs that are used to make money.

For example, this music fan named Fan Yuliang is from Hong Kong and is an ordinary worker. His hobby is listening to music.

He fell in love with this independent musician after he started releasing Cantonese songs with "Remembering Jiangnan". The song "Under the Mount Fuji" can be said to have touched his heart, and since then he has become a fan of this legendary musician who was once a big brother in Hong Kong.

Fan Yuliang didn't pay attention to the gossip or jokes about the relationship between Yi Jiangnan and Gu Qingge. He only paid attention to Yi Jiangnan's works, and even listened to the works Yi Jiangnan wrote for other singers.

In the past, he didn’t like songs other than Cantonese songs, but the Chinese and ancient style songs in "Remembering Jiangnan" successfully captured his heart.

Some of the lyrics in the previous song "Xiao" are very interesting - I walked through the desert, the long river with lonely smoke and the setting sun.

[Remembering Jiangnan] also notes that this song's lyrics are adapted from the ancient poem "An Envoy to the Frontier" "A lone smoke rises straight in the desert, the setting sun is round in the long river."

So the question is, whose poem is this "Envoy to the Frontier"?

You have to know that there is no Wang Wei in the history of this world...

[Remembering Jiangnan] did not answer this question, and then everyone naturally assumed that the poem was "his" own work.

I didn’t expect that [Remembering Jiangnan] also has such poetic talent!

Who says that “he” is not as talented as Gu Qingge in the field of ancient poetry?

However, some fans directly refuted it, saying that the inspiration for the lyrics of "Remembering Jiangnan" might have come from Gu Qingge's poetry collection, and that "Envoy to the Frontier" was also Gu Qingge's work!

When the fans made this statement, everyone was amused. They thought that Gu Qingge's fans were crazy. Whenever an excellent ancient poem appeared, they would insist that it was Gu Qingge's work.

The practice of [Remembering Jiangnan] to write and release ancient and Chinese-style songs has finally caused many people to question his identity. People are increasingly thinking that this [Remembering Jiangnan] might just be Gu Qingge's pseudonym?

The main thing is that now in [Remembering Jiangnan] he seems to have come clean, stopped pretending, and stopped trying to strengthen his own personality. His style is really too much like Gu Qingge's real persona!

The song "Xiao" is also sung by two singers, one male and one female. It is a song that is very catchy from the beginning, and the beginning part naturally became a very popular bgm on Douyin. Douyin bloggers who like to shoot ancient style short videos like to use this bgm very much.

This is also one of the reasons why more and more people doubt the identity of "Remembering Jiangnan". After all, this kind of physique of making a random song and becoming an Internet celebrity song on Douyin is really too much for Gu Qingge.

In addition to "Xiao", Fan Yuliang also likes "A Bridge of Fate". It sings out ancient poems directly at the beginning, and the melody is quite nice. It's really amazing -

Qin's Moon and Han Dynasty Pass

The Long March has not yet returned

But the flying general of Longcheng will

Don't let the Hu horse cross the Yinshan Mountains

…

In addition, in the performance of this song, the powerful female singer Qin Weiwei led the "Qinqiang" singing style of the song.

She can perform angry voices, shouting songs, and rap with ease, and her "Qinqiang" performance style seems to be "singing at the top of her voice" to outsiders.

Music talent Wang Liqin is also trying hard to move in this direction, but after all, there is a difference in the vocal range of men and women. Wang Liqin's frequent use of falsetto does add a certain flavor.

Both of them are veterans who can sing, know how to sing and are good at singing. They promote and inspire each other and easily find the balance between pop and folk songs.

This song "A Bridge of Fate" has helped "Remembering Jiangnan" regain a lot of its previous reputation, but it also makes people further suspect that "he" is clearly Gu Qingge's pseudonym!

These lyrics are really Gu Qingge's. Apart from her, who else can use original ancient poetry as lyrics?

All in all, the [Remembering Jiangnan] vest is now on the verge of being exposed...

At this time, Fan Yuliang, who had purchased the album "Ten Years" out of trust in "Remembering Jiangnan" without even trying it out, had already started listening to it very quietly.

He chose to play the entire album randomly, and the first song that came randomly was "That Girl Said to Me".
