Chapter 171 The Stars Don’t Speak "Who would believe in this superficial dialogue in this lifetime?" A beam of cold white light fell from above his head. In the light and shadow, Chen Mo was sitting in front of a black tripod piano, performing a solo. This live broadcast, whether it is the set, lighting, sound, or filming, is all done in accordance with professional program production standards. From broadcast-level cameras to channel shooting methods, panoramic views, close-ups, closeups, and jib cranes. The director was the self-recommended director Bi Shiqun. Therefore, this can indeed be regarded as Chen Mo’s official personal debut as a singer. "If you have never heard it, the oath is like a Ferris wheel of happiness" In the Mandarin version written for Jiang Congwen, Chen Mo took lyrical tone as the main theme, and the arrangement was mainly based on piano and strings with a relatively steady rhythm. In the Cantonese version, Chen Mo incorporated the rhythms of dance music such as waltz and tango, and the melody has significantly greater ups and downs. "Whoever is trash, whoever doesn't want to make me sad, give me a piece of your mind"
Chen Mo uses a slightly playful way of pronouncing words, presenting a dramatic sense of stage. If Jiang Congwen sings a passionate monologue in love, then Chen Mo sings a "cold-eyed observation" from a detached perspective. After singing the Cantonese version of "King of Karaoke", it's not over yet. Chen Mo's fingers were seen jumping nimbly, and the prelude of "Love Transfer" sounded, but the first song he started to sing was "Under the Mount Fuji". “Everyone only has two hands. It is difficult to possess them by hugging them. If you want to possess them, you must first know how to accept losing them.” Compared to "Love Transfer" which emphasizes the narrative nature of the human voice, Chen Mo's singing of "Under the Mount Fuji" focuses more on creating an atmosphere of the main melody. At the same time, because the intonation of Cantonese is more in line with the ups and downs of melody, Chen Mo's singing style is more freehand. Next up is the Cantonese version of "Ten Years", "Same Time, Next Year". "I have used up all my luck to meet you in this moment of my life." After three songs in a row, everyone in the live broadcast room was numb. It's obviously the same melody, but with just slight changes, it presents a completely different emotional expression. Furthermore, one can tell that these three songs with the same melody but different lyrics were not simply translated into Cantonese based on the Mandarin lyrics with the intention of making money, but are sincere works that truly achieve a "match" between the lyrics and the music. At this moment, the public undoubtedly had a very intuitive understanding of Chen Mo. Not to mention the general public, even the few people in Youfeng Courtyard who were familiar with Chen Mo were surprised. After listening to it, Hu Youyu exclaimed: "Wow, there is a way to write a song, is this how you play music?!" "In recent years, there haven't been such 'harmonious' Cantonese songs for a long time." Nana also felt a little emotional. Her previous live broadcasts were mainly covers of some classic Cantonese songs. Why sing classic old songs? Because Hong Kong entertainment has long been in decline, whether it is film and television or music, there have been no "glorious" Cantonese works for a long time. Now Hong Kong entertainment is only supported by the brand of "classic nostalgia".
Su Qingya asked curiously, "Isn't Chen Mo from BJ? How come he sings so well in Cantonese?" "It seems like he grew up in BJ, but his hometown is Guangdong Province?" Chen Nanxing looked at Xu Hongdou. She vaguely remembered that this was the case. Xu Hongdou smiled and nodded, "Compared to BJ, he often says that he is from Guangdong Province, and many of his tastes and habits are also more southern." Su Qingya said casually: "I quite like Cantonese. I feel that people who can speak Cantonese have a different kind of charm." When Xu Hongdou heard this, she didn't know what she thought of, and the corners of her mouth curled up. Xu Hongdou was actually not unfamiliar with Chen Mo speaking Cantonese. Because when Chen Mo was "tease" her, he would sometimes say a few Cantonese words like "beautiful girl", "I like you", "I miss you", etc. At first she didn't know what it meant, but later she went to find out more. How should I put it? If you say some words in a language you are familiar with, you may sometimes feel inexplicably ashamed, but if you change them into another language you are not familiar with, you will feel it is very special. After singing three "new songs", Chen Mo sang his own album in the form of a medley. It's strange to say, Chen Mo's album has been released for more than half a year, but only now is the first time I have promoted it. At this time, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room has quietly exceeded 10 without anyone noticing. "Huh~~ Take a break." Chen Mo stopped to drink some water, then looked at the comments on the barrage. [Nothing else to say, just one word, awesome! ] Chen Mo smiled and said, "Then I have to say, two words, it's okay." [I am tone-deaf, can I be a singer? ] Chen Mo "encouraged" him, "Of course, success comes from acquired efforts, so let's take a break today and tomorrow." [Is there any book that can instantly enlighten you? 】 Chen Mo nodded and said, "You can go and take a look at the instructions for the enema." [I like singing, but I am shy and always feel embarrassed to sing in front of others. I don’t know what to do.] Chen Mo comforted her warmly: "It's okay. I'm actually shy too. When I go out on the street, I'm always too embarrassed to hold other people's girlfriends' hands." [Is there a sequel to the MV of "Ten Years"? I still want to watch it. ] Finally seeing a serious question, Chen Mo sat up straight, thought for a while, and said: "Well, as for what's in the MV, there shouldn't be a follow-up, but there is in reality." Upon hearing this, all kinds of speculations immediately emerged on the barrage. Chen Mo smiled and admitted, "Yes, the heroine in the MV of "Ten Years" is now my heroine in real life." Windy courtyard. When Chen Mo said this in the live broadcast room, everyone's eyes turned to Xu Hongdou and a series of exclamations came out of their mouths.
"Wow~~" Xu Hongdou lifted her hair from her temples, revealing her pink ears, and said nonchalantly, "Why? It's not the first day you've known about this." Nana joked: "We didn't know it on the first day, but the hundreds of thousands of people in the live broadcast room did." Hu Youyu nodded in agreement, "By tomorrow, the whole internet will probably know about it." Chen Nanxing touched his chin and said, "Last time at the concert, Chen Mo mentioned that he had a girlfriend, but he didn't mention her name. This time it's officially announced." "Boss Chen, you must have it." Su Qingya, who had failed in her last relationship, couldn't help feeling touched when she saw what Chen Mo was doing at this time. How can one not envy such passionate and sincere love? "I would like to take this opportunity to dedicate the last song of today to my special someone." In the live broadcast room, Chen Mo sat back in front of the piano. Afterwards, the sound of piano and strings intertwined, and a soothing melody sounded. "To love someone, you may need to be generous" Xu Hongdou quietly walked out of the house and came to the second-floor terrace alone. She leaned over the railing, put on headphones, and listened to Chen Mo's "confession" alone. "In the years to come, let us understand together how many days of eternity there are, and how many times there are long-lasting streams." Chen Mo's gentle voice sounded like a love letter being read. The recipient of the letter was her, who was thousands of miles away. "We are special to each other, we are willing to sacrifice everything for each other, and we are inseparable. This is not the seriousness of ordinary people." Xu Hongdou suddenly recalled a book she had read before. She couldn't remember the title, but the content of the book was probably about some thoughts on the meaning of life. She didn't finish reading the book. She only read the first few pages and felt so sleepy that she fell asleep. So she turned directly to the last page of the book, where the final conclusion was given: Life itself has no meaning. At that time, she was glad that she didn't read the book from the beginning. Otherwise, your meaningless life will be wasted on this meaningless book. However, the reason why she still remembers this book is that it asks a question at the end: So, how can we get through this life that is destined to be meaningless without it being so difficult? Xu Hongdou felt that she now had the answer: Just one person is enough. As long as there is someone indispensable in life, people can persist in a meaningless life. We often wander in search of the one and only one in our life, and we also often expect to be someone's only one. Now, she has found this person.
"If I only have one day to love someone, and let time go back every moment, everything is possible in life, and you are the special person I want to meet." Xu Hongdou looked at him on the screen, with gentle ripples in her eyes. No one noticed that not only was there no moon tonight, but even the stars had disappeared. The bright starry sky, at some point, had hidden itself in her eyes. "Is it over with you?" "I just finished my work. Did you hear the song I sang to you?" Xu Hongdou replied softly: "Yeah." Chen Mo laughed, "Don't be too touched." Xu Hongdou snorted softly, and then asked doubtfully: "But why do I feel a little sad when I hear you singing this song?" The person who knows Chen Mo best is undoubtedly Xu Hongdou. Chen Mo was not surprised, "Did you hear it?" Xu Hongdou nodded slightly, "Well, did something happen?" Chen Mo shook his head, "Nothing." "Good or bad, we should share with each other." Xu Hongdou's voice was soft but firm. Chen Mo thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I always feel that my inspiration is like the wind from another world." "wind?" "Yeah." Chen Mo nodded and said softly, "When the wind blew today, it seemed to bring the sadness of another world." It was both a warm confession and a gentle farewell. Chen Mo looked up at the night sky and whispered: "There are no stars tonight, are you sleeping?" (End of this chapter)
