Chapter 1022: See "Dong Feng Po" Again
At the beginning of the show, the guests were still familiar to variety show fans, but unlike previous segments, this time the guests did not use letters from the audience to bring out the theme of this episode and the songs they would sing.
Because Lin Fan decided to participate in this program at the last minute, the program crew worked overtime to rush out this episode, and there was no preparation in advance.
There were no pre-arranged letters from viewers - even if there were such letters, they could be made up by the program crew themselves, but in the eyes of the audience, they would inevitably seem too deliberate.
If it is not handled properly, it can easily lead to counterproductive effects.
So the program team simply abandoned the letter reading part and started with the performance! All you can hear is a soothing piano sound, which is repeated four times, giving people a soothing and unique auditory enjoyment.
The piano ended, replaced by the sound of harp and acoustic guitar, crisp drum beats and warm guitar intertwined, soothing, beautiful, subtle and graceful melody, revealing the elegance of Chinese classical music everywhere! Variety show fans haven't reacted yet, the feeling of being told in a leisurely manner, without deliberately telling about longing and sorrow, but when the melody sounded, an unspeakable sorrow spread from the bottom of your heart, and by the time you realize it, it has occupied your heart.
Liu Zhengyan began to sing slowly following the rhythm of the music. The modern pop music singing style, combined with Liu Zhengyan's slightly weathered voice, plus the subtle and graceful, deep and lingering feeling lingering in every melody and every line of lyrics, made everyone who heard the song feel as if they were in the years, witnessing the rotation of the stars and the moon, and the silent passage of time.
"A lamp of sorrow
Standing alone at the window
I'm behind the door, pretending you're still here
Revisiting an old place
The full moon makes me more lonely
The candlelight awake at midnight
Can't bear to blame me——"
When the guests heard the prelude, they knew which song Liu Zhengyan was going to sing. But after hearing the song, they realized that the charm of the song was far more than they had imagined.
Especially the song "Dong Feng Po", which is Lin Fan's first work in creating traditional Chinese style songs. Whether in terms of concept, creation, or talent, it is an undisputed classic representative work of Lin Fan.
It is also a classic example of how modern instruments restore classical melodies. Since its launch, it has been imitated by the industry, but it has never been surpassed!
Whenever the sound of the pipa sounded in the melody, the crisp, bright and penetrating sound of the pipa strings, the invisible barrier between the past and the present was easily broken down.
Just this one song completely dispelled any remaining dissatisfaction in the hearts of all the guests: If such a groundbreaking song had been created by themselves, then they would be the ones receiving such special treatment today.
Unfortunately, there are no ifs in life.
Some people's talents, even if washed away by time, can still leave a deep mark in the long river of time.
No matter how long has passed, as long as this melody sounds, the memories engraved in the hearts of every listener will be awakened again, and they will indulge in this beautiful melody again and be brought into the story of this song again.
In the story, the familiar feelings, unforgettable people and events touch the softest part of everyone's heart and stir everyone's heartstrings, making people yearn for the lost past and long to go back to the past and be with that person again.
However, time has passed, and the past can only become a memory, which is heavy and difficult to overcome.
"A pot of drift
Wandering around the world is hard to swallow
After you left, the wine warmed the memories and the yearning thinned
Water flows eastwards How does time steal
Flowers bloom and mature at once
I missed—"
An indescribable longing and sadness welled up in my heart. Everyone who heard this song seemed to travel through time and space at this moment and saw the people in the story, one waiting alone, the other wandering around the world. The two people were separated in two places, and only longing connected them together.
In addition, this method of incorporating ancient poetry into songs allows ancient poetry to be integrated with modern pop music, breaking the current pattern of separating new poetry and lyrics. The lyrics alternate between ancient and modern times, giving a sense of the interweaving of time and space.
Coupled with the song's ancient minor tune style, supplemented by the integration of classical instruments, the retro style presents a feeling of wandering in the world of classical poetry, making people feel as if they are in that prosperous era when people sang while playing swords and chanted poems to the moon!
It's perfect!
The guests were all immersed in the melody of the song itself. Liu Zhengyan's interpretation had a more vicissitudes and nostalgia than Lin Fan's version.
Fans of the variety show have long forgotten that when the show started, they were still thinking about weighing Lin Fan's weight. Now they just hope that the song will not stop and keep on singing.
As for Lin Fan's fans, they were already having a great time in the barrage, but at this time, the barrage of most viewers was turned off, so there was no way of knowing what Lin Fan's fans were posting in the barrage.
The audience only knows that the song "Dong Feng Po" is really a song that one never gets tired of listening to, and every time they hear it, it always evokes some emotions deep in their hearts that they are not even aware of.
At this moment, Liu Zhengyan put down the microphone in his hand and made a "please" gesture. A handsome and tall young man came into the sight of all the audience.
It was Lin Fan!
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6-9!
Seeing Lin Fan, the guests almost screamed out loud, and the two female guests at the scene had to cover their mouths tightly with their hands to stop the screams.
But the audience in front of the screen had no obstacles and could shout out the name as they pleased: "Lin Fan!"
"Oh my god, it's Brother Fan!"
"Fanfan!"
Lin Fan waved at the camera as a greeting to everyone, then took a deep breath.
It was like a sigh, or a memory that forcibly tore apart the years, revealing mottled light and shadow, and the black and white memories gradually became stained with bright colors: "Who is playing the pipa? A song of Dongfengpo. The years are peeling off the wall.
See when I was a kid
I still remember that year when we were still very young. And now the sound of the piano is faint
You haven’t heard my waiting—”
The beauty only lasts for a moment, and memories are always just memories. Years are the mottled moss on the wall and the light and shadow that cannot be grasped by fingertips. The clear sound flows, and time destroys. I don’t know where to find the beloved anymore. I am the only one left at this time and place, alone and haggard.
Everything has been predestined, and the ending cannot be changed. Starting over again is just wishful thinking, just like fallen flowers and flowing water, time cannot be stolen.
"Who is playing the song of Dongfengpo on the pipa? Maple leaves color the story.
I see the ending
I'll lead you along the ancient path outside the fence
The Years of Smoke and Grass
Even the breakup was silent—"
The evening breeze blew gently, and countless people had red eyes and wet faces this night.
