282. Chapter 274 I really can't bear to let go. The most painful day starts from “Night”!

Lu Chen didn't think much about it and blurted out: "Just an album with the same name, "Seven Miles of Fragrance"."

Feng Nan pondered for a moment, frowned and said with emotion: "Seven-mile fragrance... yes, the fragrance of this song spreads for seven miles, but it is more than seven miles."

Lu Chen: “…”

If he said at this time that Qilixiang is actually a butt-shaped snack, would it be a bit of a spoiler?

"However, I suggest changing it a little bit."

"Change it? How?"

“Since this is confirmed to be the last album, why not call it: The Last Seven Miles of Incense, so that the song can be fragrant once again.”

Lu Chen's forehead was black at first, but after thinking about it carefully, it made sense.

Since this is the last album...

It seems necessary to add some adjectives.

"Okay, you arrange it. I have to work on a few other songs."

Feng Nan made an OK gesture.

Leave the office.

But looking at the USB flash drive in my hand.

Feng Nan felt mixed emotions.

"Mr. Zhao, the song has been recorded. Can I contact Mai Shidong to release the album?"

Zhao Ling's office.

After listening to Feng Nan's report.

There was no trace of joy on Zhao Ling's face.

He just nodded disinterestedly: "You arrange it, no need to ask me."

"Okay, I'll go connect now. By the way, Mr. Zhao, don't you want to listen?"

"No, go and get busy."

"Oh." Feng Nan saw that Zhao Ling's face was not right, and asked weakly: "Mr. Zhao, what's wrong with you?"

"Hey, are you annoying? Go, go, go!"

Zhao Ling said angrily.

Seeing this, Feng Nan could only shrink his neck and leave the office.

With a "bang" the door opened.

Zhao Ling was looking at the scenery outside the window. Suddenly, her nose started to twitch and her eyes became red.

Tears couldn't help but flow out of my eyes.

In the end, he lay down on the table and buried his face in his clasped hands.

The faint sound of sobbing floated around the room.

How come this day came so quickly! The fourth concert in seven days.

In seven days, the fifth concert will be held.

Before she knew it, Lu Chen only had fourteen days left by her side.

The sudden sadness turns into a river.

Soon after, QQ Music Headquarters.

The director's office was filled with smoke.

As soon as the assistant came in, he was choked.

"Boss, why do you smoke so much?"

He remembered that Mai Shidong seldom smoked.

With the smell of cigarettes today, I have to smoke at least four or five cigarettes to achieve this effect.

"Tell the operations department to create a special page for the event. I'll send the information and content to your email."

"Okay, whose event page is it?"

"Lu Chen's."

The assistant's eyes suddenly lit up: "Ah! Lu Chen is going to release a new song again?! Oh yeah!"

But Mai Shidong's expression didn't seem very happy.

"Boss, what's wrong with you? Lu Chen is releasing a song, but you don't look very excited. That's Lu Chen! Weren't you always very happy every time a song was released before?"

Mai Shidong's smile was somewhat desolate and sentimental.

"I am happy, but... I don't know why, I just can't be happy."

"What's wrong? The quality is bad? Impossible!?"

"How could his current songs be of poor quality?" Mai Shidong subconsciously took out another cigarette and lit it. Perhaps he smoked too much, so he coughed for a long time before he recovered: "This is the last time he will release a song, do you understand?"

The confusion on the assistant's face was frozen in time! "The last...last time to release a song? No, isn't there a fifth concert?"

Mai Shidong shook his head: "I don't know, but this day... has finally come."

The atmosphere in the office froze for a moment.

The assistant's expression was exactly the same as Mai Shidong's. After a long silence, he asked, "Leader, how do you feel now?"

Mai Shidong leaned back on the sofa, looked at the ceiling above his head, and let out a long sigh: "I still feel a little reluctant."

Her eyes suddenly turned red: "I really can't bear to leave."

The assistant was silent.

"Leader, then...when will it be sent?"

"After you finish the cover, just send it out."

“No preheating?”

"No need this time. Lu Chen requested it."

"All right."

That afternoon, near the end of the get off work day, Qinghua Entertainment.

"Siyu, look, the latest news is that Lu Chen's ten songs have directly made it to the top ten of the charts! I'm so lucky to have them all!"

As soon as Shen Mengqiu saw the account that was transferred, she ran to Su Siyu and showed it to her: "Amazing! Really amazing!"

Su Siyu was putting on makeup, and when she heard this, she smiled like a virtuous and proud wife.

"He is Lu Chen!"

Perhaps because he heard the arrogance in Su Siyu's words, Shen Mengqiu joked, "Yes, yes, I know your brother Lu Chen is amazing, okay?"

Su Siyu said coquettishly: "What are you talking about, Sister Qiu, what about my Lu Chen?"

Shen Mengqiu: "Oh, oh, you're still shy. If I say someone else's Lu Chen, are you happy with that? Are you happy with that? If you're happy, I'll change my words and say someone else's Lu Chen."

Su Siyu was speechless for a moment, her face flushed: "I'm not going to pay attention to you!"

Shen Mengqiu laughed out loud.

"But Siyu, I'm an experienced person. Sometimes, I still have to take the initiative. After all, once an opportunity is gone, it won't come back again."

"Sister Qiu, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"Okay, just treat it as my nonsense, don't regret it later."

Su Siyu wanted to say something, but when the words came to her lips, she couldn't say them.

"Lu Chen is such a top-notch guy!"

"Sister Qiu!"

Su Siyu couldn't stand the crickets.

Shen Mengqiu laughed out loud.

Just at this moment.

Suddenly, both of their cell phones dinged at the same time, and they took out their phones to take a look.

After seeing the content clearly, Shen Mengqiu stood up on the spot.

"Siyu, Lu Chen has released a new album!"

Su Siyu naturally saw it as well.

"What's going on? Why did they release an album without any announcement?"

Shen Mengqiu was very confused.

How come there was no news at all this time, not even any pre-release, and they just released it? !

What's going on? Su Siyu didn't think too much about it.

Immediately log in to the interface.

"The Last Seven Miles of Incense?"

The two didn't react at first.

Until I read the introduction on the event page...

Just a short line of words made Shen Mengqiu and Su Siyu feel like they were struck by lightning.

——"Lu Chen's final work in 2013."

"The finale?! This..."

Shen Mengqiu's eyes widened: "Isn't there another concert? Why is it ending so soon?!"

Su Siyu's face was also stunned, but she was not as startled as Shen Mengqiu.

——"The fifth concert was only seven days apart from the fourth."

Suddenly I remembered what Zhao Ling said that day.

Su Siyu instantly understood the meaning of this painting "The Last Seven-mile Fragrance".

But only a second passed.

The emotions that came to her later were like a tidal wave, enveloping Su Siyu.

This day has finally come.

The ending of "Microphone" is regrettable.

Today's album makes people feel sad instantly.

Su Siyu didn't say anything else, but silently picked up the headset and put it on her head.

Purchased the album.

The playlist of this last album then came into view.

——"Seven Miles of Fragrance"

——The Greatest Work

——"Jiangnan"

——"Chapter 7 of Night"

——《Rice Fragrance》

——"Confession Balloon"

——Listen to Mom

——"The Brightest Star in the Night Sky"

——"Dragon Country Dialect"

——Invisible Wings

Su Siyu, who had already listened to the first three songs, subconsciously clicked on the new song.

——"Chapter Seven of Night".

As the prelude sounded.

The black and luxurious melody is mysterious and clean, shocking like the cry of the soul! His songs can always attract the audience into his world the moment the melody sounds.

This song is no exception.

Exquisite and high-end! Su Siyu had this feeling after just listening to the prelude.

In fact, the feeling this song gave her was not inferior to that of "In the Name of the Father".

It is not difficult to hear from the melody that this song is very similar in style to "In the Name of the Father".

A bit of a dark series.

Su Siyu had actually always been resistant to this style.

Always feel uncomfortable.

But since I heard "In the Name of the Father".

I don't know why, but I developed a strong interest in this style.

Looking at the domestic entertainment industry, Lu Chen's style is already the only benchmark.

She calmed down, tried to empty herself, and listened quietly.

"1983 Alley, sunny December

Chapter 7 of Night The typewriter continues to push towards the next line that is close to the truth

The mist from the heather pipe drifts toward the withered tree and cries to me in silence

The Circus at Baker Street

On the arm of the armored knight~"

The ultimate sense of impact!

When Lu Chen's unique rap sounded.

The soul is trembling.

Especially when I saw the lyrics of this song.

In a trance, Su Siyu felt like she was reading a detective novel.

In fact, Su Siyu was a fan of mystery novels for a while.

If you like this subject, you are bound to read the classic detective series "Sherlock Holmes".

So, if she guessed correctly.

wrong!

It should be said that she is sure! Every line of the lyrics has the shadow of Sherlock Holmes.

For example, the first sentence: It was a sunny day in the alley in December 1983.

The corresponding scene should be in the novel, in 1893, Mrs. Watson died and Holmes ended his travels.

And the second sentence: Chapter 7 of Night The typewriter continued to push towards the next line that was close to the truth.

It should be the chapter "The Case of Identity" in which Holmes deduced that Windibank was Angel through the incomplete "e" and "r" on the typewritten note!

Third sentence: The mist of the heather pipe.

Not to mention, the briar pipe is the symbol of Sherlock Holmes.

Fourth sentence: Drifting towards the withered tree.

It should refer to: the description of the thick yellow fog in late winter and early spring in London in "The Case of the Copper Beeches".

That’s right!

This is a dark song based on the Sherlock Holmes series.

Just this melody, these lyrics.

It is so exquisite and high-end that it is unbelievable.

It's like a work of art! "Siyu, have you listened to the song "The Seventh Chapter of the Night"? Wow, it's too good! I feel like it's even more explosive than "In the Name of the Father"! Can a human write these lyrics?"

Shen Mengqiu's repeated exclamations came from next door.

Su Siyu didn't say anything and just listened quietly.

Until the chorus comes.

The male and female voices rang out one after another:

"Woman: If evil is a gorgeous and cruel melody"

“M: (Then justice is a deep and helpless melancholy)”

“Woman: I will write its ending with my own hands”

“M: (Then I will light up the glimmer in the ashes)”

"Female: The light of the morning sun dries up the last line of sorrow"

"M: (Then the raindrops will wash away the dark walls)"

At this moment, the classical magnificence reached its peak! The ethereal and psychedelic female voice matched with Lu Chen’s explosive melody rap.

It actually gives people an unprecedented strange beauty! It seems that in an instant, the church, the prayers of the Holy Spirit and the excitement of various musical instruments automatically construct a picture in the brain.

It makes people feel like wandering in the Middle Ages and following Lu Chen on a journey to solve a case! While Su Siyu is experiencing the incomparable beauty of this song.

In a trance, I saw again that towering figure standing on the cloud palace.

His talent really has no end! There is no limit to his talent!

His greatness resides between the lines and in the complex melody!

But before Su Siyu could take a breath.

As the chorus ends.

The splendor of the interlude has not diminished at all.

Especially when Su Siyu heard Lu Chen add an unexpected [dominant 7th flat fifth chord] before the end of the interlude, he used the tonic as the bass.

She was stunned, literally stunned.

This [dominant 7th flat fifth chord] is actually a common chord in jazz music.

As we all know, the style of jazz is always soothing.

It is quite different from the style of suspense and thriller.

But what made Su Siyu unbelievable was.

Lu Chen used it here, but there was no trace of abruptness.

On the contrary, it blends in as if it were supposed to be.

This finishing touch of chords made Su Siyu's eyes widen suddenly, in disbelief! "Is this really a pop song? The grasp and development of details in this song is even more amazing than "In the Name of the Father"!"

At least "With the Father" lacks such a finishing touch.

Su Siyu's scalp went numb after hearing this!

It really makes my scalp tingle! And as the interlude ends.

A more violent, stronger, and more deadly rap, coming at you! …

“The truth can only penetrate

Soil without footprints

Sudden subtle floral scent

Deliberately conspicuous clothing

Everyone has different reasons

There is only one name for lying while wearing a mask, and that is desire. Far farther farther far Farther ther far farther far far Who can really stay clean after crossing the swamp of human nature?

We can forget and forgive but we must know the truth

The moved iron bed

The last piece of the puzzle finally fits in. I heard the footsteps and expected the soft leather heel

He opened the door and the evening breeze shook the kerosene lamp for a moment.

The typewriter stopped at the murderer's name and I turned around

The night sky over Westminster Abbey began to boil..."

Oh my god!

So small!

It’s really too small!

The more Su Siyu listened to the song, the more she felt so insignificant! How on earth was this melody written?

How come these lyrics are so meaningful and vivid?

If the stunningness of "In the Name of the Father" comes from the invincible prelude and unit.

Then this song "The Seventh Chapter of the Night" is more like a kind of gorgeousness that is unraveling the mystery!

The further the song goes on, the more desperate Su Siyu, who is also the songwriter, becomes!

Desperate to the dust.

In the second chorus.

It did not repeat itself, but instead used a sharp key, rising to the key of A, to make further changes in details.

Su Siyu thought the climax ended there.

But the fact is, it doesn’t!

Lu Chen's singing part did not start until the last melody.

In an instant, the climax of the whole song was pushed to the extreme!

"If evil is a melody of gorgeous cruelty

At its end, I will write the last line of sorrow with my own hands in the light of the morning sun~"

Just like attack and defense can change.

This is like the lyrics of a detective drama.

The previous part is the part where Lu Chen explores as the protagonist.

But in this paragraph.

The plot is clearly taking a turn.

The protagonist "Lu Chen" obviously already knows the whole story of the case.

The resulting despair.

He really understands music!

He knows too well how to write the climax of a song! Until the last melody ends without any drag!

Both the melody and the lyrics leave enough blank space.

Let the fans speculate and think for themselves.

Su Siyu's head was buzzing for a moment.

Throughout the entire song, the entire process, every tune, every chord!

You can hear the careful polishing and repeated adjustments! You can imagine how much thought went into this song! And the texture of this song is rare in the entire music industry.

At least to Su Siyu, this song is not inferior to "In the Name of the Father" in terms of melody and lyrics! And the double chorus is written repeatedly.

The whole world, at least for now.

Among all the singers Su Siyu knows.

Except Lu Chen!

There is no second one! …

In the office.

Su Siyu and Shen Mengqiu, who finished listening to the song almost at the same time, looked at each other.

"Siyu, do you think I should kneel down for him?"

The whole world knows that Lu Chen has a wild imagination.

But every time I listen to his songs, I still feel a sense of surrender.

This song is extremely similar in style to "In the Name of the Father" and "End of War", both of which are dark Gothic styles.

And each of these three songs carries a profound chant.

The spooky atmosphere is really addictive!

Su Siyu secretly took a deep breath and said, "Go on, Sister Qiu."

Shen Mengqiu nodded heavily.

When you think that this may be Lu Chen’s last work in his career?

The mood this time is completely different from any previous time.

At this moment, now! Su Siyu, Shen Mengqiu, and everyone else who listens to this album at the same time.

It feels like there is a mountain pressing down on my heart.

I never thought that one day, happiness and sadness could coexist at the same time! So much so that tears would drip onto the phone screen from time to time outside the screen.

Treat every subsequent song as a treasure.

And the next song is: "Rice Fragrance".
