Chapter 386: One Cup to Freedom and One Cup to Death (asking for monthly tickets and recommendation tickets!)
However, to the surprise of all the audience, this was not the end of the first episode. After playing the preview of the next guest, the camera turned back again, and saw that Lin Fan had held the guitar in his arms at some point, and was gently plucking the strings under the dim and quiet light.
At this moment, the longing courtyard was extremely quiet, and the audience outside the screen also quieted down. Everyone realized that Lin Fan was going to sing.
There was a burst of noisy sound, I don't know if it was the background of the show itself, or the accompaniment of the song was designed to be like this, but it flowed slowly along with the gentle melody.
This is a new song! Qi Qi couldn't help but look at He Li, and saw the same surprise in each other's eyes! Lin Fan actually sang his new song on a variety show! This is simply a double benefit! Although everyone is speculating whether Lin Fan will sing on the show, everyone also understands that he will definitely sing, but not every episode.
It is even possible that throughout the entire season, Lin Fan will only sing one or two new songs at most. After all, this is a variety show, and if Lin Fan sings, it will easily steal the show's limelight, making it impossible for the audience to watch the show peacefully and only look forward to Lin Fan singing.
This deviates from the original intention of making the program.
But I didn't expect that Lin Fan would do something so unconventional! He sang a new song in the first episode! Qi Qi and He Li really loved this willful operation! For the audience, they only care about whether a program is good to watch and whether it has something to attract them. As for whether it will deviate from the purpose and whether it will steal the show, that is what the creative team should care about.
Who cares? What is the purpose of the program? What is the theme? How can it be more important than listening to the songs! Let's listen to the songs first, and talk about other things later! Lin Fan's singing this time did not use too professional singing skills. It was so simple, with a casual chat, telling a story that perhaps everyone has experienced.
"When you walk into this happy place
Carry all the dreams and thoughts
Different makeup on different faces
No one remembers what you look like—"
The smooth and emotional expression, the inadvertently revealed sadness, and the strong sense of picture make the audience seem to see themselves, the first time they step into a big city, or the first time they enter the society, or the first time they enter the workplace...
When you are full of hope, carrying dreams and want to make a career, you suddenly realize that everyone around you is wearing masks and you are drowned in the crowd, confused and helpless.
Just like my former self.
But what can we do? Life must go on. No matter how bitter it is, we can still swallow it down with a glass of wine and tell ourselves that everything will be fine.
"After three rounds of drinking you are in the corner
Singing the bitter song stubbornly, listening to it being drowned out by the noise
You pick up the glass and say to yourself—"
The melody of this song does not have much ups and downs. Lin Fan holds a guitar and expresses his feelings about life. With a gentle and slightly sad melody, he creates an emotional resonance between himself and many people in front of the screen, many ordinary people.
However, Lin Fan did not want to show off his pathos. On the contrary, he was telling everyone in his own way that even in such an unsatisfactory life, one should persist and move forward with heavy burdens.
"One cup to the morning sun and one cup to the moonlight Awaken my yearning and soften the cold window
So I can fly against the wind without looking back I am not afraid of rain in my heart and frost in my eyes
One cup to my hometown and one cup to the distant place Keeping my kindness and pushing me to grow
So the road from north to south is no longer long
The soul is no longer without a place to rest——"
The light melody and neatly antithetical lyrics express loneliness.
Loneliness probably means that you have to carry some things on your own.
Loneliness is probably like carrying a stone on your shoulders and pretending that there is no weight on them.
It is clear that he is drinking alone to relieve his sorrow, but in every line of the lyrics and music, he always pays tribute to beautiful things first: the warm morning sun, the lovely hometown, the bright tomorrow, and the precious freedom.
In this prosperous world, we can't find our own place. Only in these beautiful, eternal things that belong to everyone can we find our belonging and the courage to keep working hard and fighting.
This song is like a poem and also like a pot of wine. People who have listened to it probably won't get drunk, but the emotional fluctuations in their hearts are no less than being drunk.
Lin Fan sang over and over again, encouraging them.
Qi Qi recalled that when she first came to this city, she suffered a lot of grievances at work during the day and cried herself to sleep at night. But the next day, looking at the rising sun, the courage hidden in her body rose again, allowing her to endure her grievances.
So Qi Qi could continue to fight without looking back. In such a difficult situation, he squeezed into the subway, grabbed the bus, worked overtime until late at night, ate irregular takeout, got a pitiful salary, endured the cold eyes of others, and carried everything by himself.
Finally, all of this paid off. Qi Qi's work ability was recognized by her leaders, she gained a firm foothold in this city, made close friends, and made new plans for the future.
But that's not even the best thing.
The best thing is that when Qi Qi looks back on the past, thinks of his hometown and his original intention of wandering far away, he finds that he has kept the kindness in his heart and persisted in his original dream. He did not give up his original intention because of the pressure of life and do things that he despised at the beginning.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
I haven't become the person I once hated the most.
Just as Lin Fan sang in the song: "One cup to freedom and one cup to death. Forgive my ordinariness and dispel my confusion."
Well, after dawn, I always leave in a hurry. People who are sober are the most ridiculous——"
This is a special era, and what the era demands of us always exceeds the standards of ordinary people. And what we give back to this era is a silent smile.
Lin Fan's song is no longer about those life stories full of vicissitudes, or those love stories that occasionally make people envious and sad.
It is a very ordinary life, singing about some boring perceptions, some unrealistic aspirations, and some melancholy caused by whining in life. However, these ordinary and boring things that fill the hearts of every ordinary person can also be sung so beautifully and movingly.
A tissue was handed to her, and Qi Qi heard He Li's nasal voice: "Wipe all your tears and snot. You are so old, but your tear point is still so low!"
Only then did Qi Qi realize that she had been crying without knowing when.
Grabbing the tissue that He Li handed over, Qi Qi wiped the tears from her face and blew her nose. Only then did she confidently say to her bestie: "I have a low tear point. I don't know who was the one who cried so hard because of a broken heart and almost died!"
He Li was not convinced: "I'm heartbroken! Can't I cry even when I'm heartbroken?"
"Why cry about a broken heart? You should celebrate by opening champagne after getting rid of that scumbag, right?"
"How can you, a single guy, understand my feelings? I think you don't even have the chance to cry even if you want to!"
In order to hide their embarrassment, the two girlfriends mercilessly attacked and insulted each other. On the TV screen, "Longing for the Yard" slowly came to an end with Lin Fan's whistle.
