The people who came to pick him up at the airport were none other than the twin sisters, Wen Xin, who had met Chen Xian twice.
"I've been looking forward to Mr. Shen coming here to guide our work, and finally you are here." Wen Xin said with a smile, while Wen Yan was driving.
"You're so polite." Chen Xian said, "Take me to your tavern first."
The tavern is located on Yulin Road. It is very quiet. Since it is afternoon, there are not many customers yet.
The tavern is very large. In the center of the tavern, there are many musical instruments on display, and there are also resident singers.
"Today is Friday, so there will be more guests in the evening. Usually, there aren't many people here." Wen Xin said.
Shen Xian sat in the tavern with a cocktail in front of him.
Wen Xin and Wen Yan sat next to Shen Xian, attracting a lot of people's attention.
As night fell, more and more people came into the tavern, mostly young people, including couples and classmates.
Shen Xian pointed to the center of the pub, where there were guitars and singing equipment, and said, "When there are more people, I will go up and sing a song, you record a video, and then post it on the social platform, it will definitely go viral."
Wen Xin smiled and said, "Then I am really looking forward to it."
Around eight o'clock in the evening, the tavern was already full of people.
Chen Xian walked to the performance seat, picked up a guitar, strummed it twice casually, and adjusted the tone.
Everyone fixed their eyes on Shen Xian.
"Have you changed the singer?"
“This resident singer is quite handsome!”
"More than a little bit, it's really handsome!"
"He looks familiar. Wait, he's Shen Xian!"
I don’t know who screamed, then turned on their phone and pointed the camera at Shen Xian.
While talking about the guitar, Shen Xian slowly said, “A song called “Chengdu” for everyone.”
"It's not just the wine I drank last night that made me cry..."
"It made me cry,"
"More than just last night's wine."
"I am reluctant to leave,"
"More than your gentleness."
"How long will it take to go?"
"You hold my hand."
"It makes me feel embarrassed."
“It’s the freedom to struggle.”
…
A deep and hoarse voice slowly sounded, and the melody was soothing, smooth and catchy, with a typical urban folk style.
The guitar accompaniment is simple and clean, and the chorus "Walk with me on the streets of Chengdu, oh oh... until all the lights go out and don't stop" is very memorable and infectious.
The tavern gradually became quiet.
Many people were reminded of their memories and tears welled up in their eyes.
“This song is so relaxing!”
“It’s so touching to hear that.”
"Yulin Road, the tavern, the rainy town, the weeping willows in late autumn, the lights, the sleeves, the city gate..."
"Instantly, a Chengdu street scene full of life and farewell atmosphere was constructed in my mind, making me feel as if I were there, with a strong sense of substitution."
The tavern was unusually quiet, everyone was staring at Shen Xian, even Wen Xin was staring at Shen Xian in a daze.
"Thank you everyone." Shen Xian put down the guitar in his hand.
boom!
boom!
Unbelievable applause and screams suddenly broke out in the tavern.
“Shen Xian!”
“Chengdu!”
"Chen Xian, I love you, can you sign an autograph?"
Shen Xian naturally would not refuse and signed one by one.
There was even a busty girl holding a marker and asking Shen Xian to sign on her chest.
At 11 o'clock in the evening, many people uploaded the video to the short video platform, and it was instantly flooded with comments!
“Hiss…Chen Xian is actually so strong in the folk music track!”
“This song is of such a high standard!”
Lu Mei, a vocal professor at the Central Conservatory of Music and an expert in folk songs, was shocked again when she heard this song: "Tianzong, your son's song is amazing. The lyrics use plain language without being sentimental. They use almost nagging daily details ("You will hold my sleeves, and I will put my hands in my trouser pockets") to carry deep emotions. This restraint makes the emotions seem more real and profound."
Graduate tutor of Haicheng Conservatory of Music: "The rain sets the tone of wet sadness, the weeping willows in late autumn add to the bleakness of parting, the lights go out, symbolizing the end of the journey or the end of the emotion, and the only thing I can't take away is you, which concretizes the emotion and becomes the most touching finishing touch. These image combinations accurately convey the retention, reluctance and helplessness. Chen Xian is really amazing!"
Internationally renowned folk music master: "The song does not have a complete storyline, but captures several clips of walking on the street on the eve of separation. It leaves a lot of blanks, such as the specific relationship between the two, why they want to leave, and where they will go in the future... This blank space invites the audience to fill it with their own experiences and imagination, which enhances the openness and breadth of resonance of the song."
“The guitar plays a leading role, supplemented by simple strings, creating a clean, rustic, and slightly nostalgic atmosphere, which serves the emotional expression of the song very well.”
“I have to say, this young man Shen Xian is really amazing!”
"Chengdu" became an overnight sensation, and many people from nearby cities drove to the tavern. The flow of people and vehicles increased by three times compared to usual days, and was still increasing.
"Let's go to Chengdu together!"
"Go check out the tavern!"
“Take a walk along Yulin Road!”
When "Chengdu" became a hit, Shen Xian also came to the International Convention and Exhibition Center.
It is here that the battle for orthodoxy takes place.
The lineup this time is very powerful. Almost all the vassal states of ancient China have come, such as the Xiaorizi country and the Nanman.
