Returning to the West Ridge at dusk/Beautiful under the setting sun and wild goose feathers/The wind is not asleep/Walking in the clouds, weaving a break
Clenching the parting tightly/How can I resist the years stacked in the wrinkles/The black hair is half rolled and the face is withered
When the moon leaves the sky, we will also be born with sorrow and resentment/Tears break, and a string of three lifetimes
I let go of my longing, wrapped in a light gauze pillow and fell asleep with tears/I only hope to see you again in my dream
" Pa, pa..." As the last note dissipated in the air, the audience spontaneously applauded enthusiastically, accompanied by cheers that echoed throughout the auditorium.
This was the only song in the entire competition, and after Fang Wenshan and Jay Chou swept the entire market with the momentum of a fierce tiger descending from the mountain, Heavenly Wind became an absolute hot topic. Gradually, people like Xu Song and Mo Mingqi Miao, who were famous for their ancient style, also became popular.
As the saying went," The tallest tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind." While the wind was hot in the country, it also attracted many bad comments. There was no standard answer to who was right and who was wrong. In any case, Xia Yufeng felt that those who opposed Tian Chao Feng were more because the similarity of the lyrics and the bitterness of the scene were a little too much. It sounded similar to the lyrics. Secondly, he felt that Tian Chao Feng's words were flowery, messy, and impractical.
Actually, there were only two reasons for this awkward situation: First, the mainland music market was in an awkward situation. After the outstanding musicians gradually retired, new leaders did not appear. Meanwhile, Hong Kong and Taiwan's pop music industry was booming, and they easily took over the entire market.
As a result, even though the independent musicians in the mainland occupied the world, they could not get the support of the people. For example, Wang Feng, Cao Fang, and others were actually very capable, but they were helpless because the mainland management companies were not strong enough. Their packaging, publicity, and even production could not compare to those in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
In the end, he could only watch as his " family " passionately sent the delicious and sumptuous " meat " into the mouths of others while he picked up some vegetables that they didn't eat and wolfed them down. What was even funnier was that everyone clearly saw the large plates of meat on the table, but no one went forward to snatch it. They were all fighting crazily over a few plates of vegetables.
He couldn't eat meat, and he couldn't get his youth. What should he do? Fine, then he would flatter them. But how could he do that? They didn't even care about him. That was why it was best to " cater to their interests ". Whatever they did, they would follow suit. If they came up with a song called " Too Grievous," they would come up with a song called " Good Grievance " tomorrow, alright? Just " I Can't afford to be Hurt." No matter how similar it was, they wouldn't have to worry about not attracting attention. Over time, all kinds of music came out. What was disappointing was that these pieces of music could no longer be called music.
What's more, they didn't like to follow the trend, and they couldn't come up with anything new, so they simply went with the flow. In the end, this already bleak and chaotic market once again set off a wave of "saliva songs". With those straightforward and vulgar lyrics and the bland and disgusting tune, the market was thrown into chaos again and again.
It wasn't easy for Tian Chao Feng to appear. Well, once the freshness passed, it was completely discarded. Why? Because they were used to this kind of popular songs, and the confusing words of Tian Chao Feng, especially Gu Feng, were really troublesome for the listeners. To put it bluntly, he didn't even know how to read many words in the Heavenly Winds. Was it the fault of the speaker, the listener, or the writer? Hehe, everyone was right. Since they were right, there was no such thing as responsibility. If you like to write, then write. Whether I like to listen or not is my own business. It couldn't be helped. Listening to a song was a pleasure. Who would have to rack their brains to think about what the lyrics meant and how to understand it when listening to a song? It was like listening to an opera.
Therefore, the final result was that the Heavenly Wind was indeed the most unique music of the Heavenly Dynasty. The words were ingenious, the artistic conception was hidden, and it was played with classical instruments. It was indeed different. Just like how opera felt to most people, it was unattainable.
Back to the main topic.
On the stage, Xu Yewei gently put down the microphone after the music faded. She then smiled and bowed to the audience to express her gratitude. The two hosts had already walked to Xu Yewei's side.
"Thank you, Student Xu Yewei, for bringing us such a beautiful song. To be honest, this tune is too beautiful. It's a completely different feeling.”
The two hosts on the stage expressed their heartfelt words about the song just now and asked the judges sitting below the stage,"Then, judges, who would like to comment first?”
" There's nothing much to say. Just give me 10 points." At this moment, Teacher Liu Xiaoqin bent down slightly and said a short sentence into the microphone. Then, he neatly pressed down the '10' on the scoreboard.
The master saw that Teacher Liu Xiaoqin had given full marks without any comments. How could she not know what this meant? However, as an experienced person, she had to hold on at this time, so she quickly said,"Alright, now that all the contestants have finished singing, the judges are busy with the final statistics. Everyone, take a break. We'll announce the results of the 4th Original Music Competition later."
This result could not be exposed in advance. It was better to leave some suspense. The host stood on the stage after the announcement and waited for the results to be delivered.
A few minutes later. " Ladies and gentlemen, the judges 'results are out. They're on the card in my hand," the female host said excitedly as she held the card in her hand. "Yes, the results of the 4th Original Origins Competition have been announced. Next, we will welcome representatives from Haotian Corporation, Yimei Advertising, and Warner Music to announce the winners of the competition.”The male host continued to explain.
Xia Yufeng, who was seated below the stage, realized that after the host introduced the three people in the first row, the leader seemed to be Li Jie. After a moment of shock, Xia Yufeng couldn't help but pat his head. Since the host had mentioned Haotian Group, was it strange for Li Jie, as the deputy manager of the company, to represent the company to participate in the event?
" Welcome to the three of you. Please stand in the middle of our stage." The host quickly and politely arranged and handed three envelopes to the three of them.
"Alright, I'll have to trouble the three of you to solve the mystery for us now.”The host finally relaxed.
"Hello, everyone. I am Shao Minghui, the creative director of Yimei Advertising. I am honored to participate in your school's music competition this time. Your performance has benefited me greatly. I feel like I'm listening to a concert. Alright, seeing how nervous you are, I won't keep you in suspense. I'll announce it now. Alright, the third place winner of the second edition of the Tianchao Music Academy Original Creation Competition is Zhou Qian. Congratulations!"
Regardless of whether the audience knew Zhou Qian or not, they were all clapping wildly and shouting loudly.
"You guys are making me so excited, but everyone should be quiet for a while. After the competition, everyone can go celebrate. I'm Li Jie, the deputy general manager of Haotian Group. I'm very happy to be here to participate in this event. Sitting among everyone, I suddenly feel that I've become much younger. Your vitality has deeply infected me. Alright, I'll leave the emotions to myself. Next, I'll reveal the second winner. En, the second place winner of the second edition of the Celestial Music Academy Original Creation Competition was-Su Li. Congratulations to him." After saying that, Li Jie started clapping.
" Okay!" The man sitting next to Xia Yufeng shouted in Xia Yufeng's ear and clapped.
However, the man beside him was not happy. He rolled his eyes at him and said," Are you okay? If you want to clap, then clap. Why are you shouting? Is he your brother or your brother-in-law? Why are you so happy?"
"Haha, you don't understand, right? Su Li got second place, so doesn't that mean first place is Xu Yewei's? Tell me, how can I not be happy?”The man explained excitedly.
Xia Yufeng also understood at this time.
"Hello, everyone. I'm Chen Jianning, the music director of Warner Music Records. I'm not only here to participate in your school's original music competition as a guest. I have a more important purpose. After watching this competition, I already have a plan in my heart. It's not convenient to say it here. Next, I will announce the winner of the first place. The winner of the second edition of the Chinese Academy of Music's Original Creation Competition is Xu Yewei. Congratulations!"
The results were out, and the entire party was almost over. A perfect match also made the two hosts extremely excited.
"Thank you, but I'll have to trouble you to present the award to our winners. Please come on stage.”The audience went completely wild. The entire auditorium was drowned out by shouts and applause. This scene made Xia Yufeng's blood boil. He had not felt this kind of atmosphere since he left school.
" Let's invite the winners to speak," the host said excitedly after the three CEOs presented the trophies to the three winners.
"Thank you to the organizers of the competition. Thank you for giving us such a platform to show ourselves. Thank you to the judges for their meticulous comments. Then, I have to thank all my friends. I'm really grateful to everyone. Finally, I would like to thank a friend who is also here today. Please allow me to invite him up.”Xu Yewei sighed emotionally on stage. At this point, she looked at the emcee and asked for her permission.
How could the two hosts not know that there was a story going on? How could they let go of such a gimmick? They quickly said," Everyone, do you want to invite this friend?" The audience below the stage said," Yes."
After getting permission from the host and the audience, Xu Yewei stared at Xia Yufeng and said," Xia Yufeng, please come on stage. After saying that, she stared at Xia Yufeng.
Xia Yufeng's seat wasn't far from the stage. The audience followed Xu Yewei's gaze and soon, everyone's eyes were focused on Xia Yufeng. Xia Yufeng was not mentally prepared for this sudden situation. Not only was he shocked, but a few others were also shocked.
They were Xia Yufeng's two classmates who had been talking about Xu Yewei non-stop just now, followed by Xue Hairuo backstage. Xue Hai was stunned. What was going on? Xia Yufeng? My bodyguard, how did they know each other? Anyway, his mind was filled with question marks.
Zhou Qian, who was standing beside Xue Hairuo, was secretly laughing. She didn't know that Xu Yewei would suddenly do something like this. She also saw Xia Yufeng's dazed and extremely shy expression under the light and thought to herself,'This kid is really silly, haha.'
By the time Xia Yufeng reacted, a minute had passed. Under everyone's expectant, unwilling, angry, jealous, resentful, and other kinds of eyes, Xia Yufeng walked to the stage with fear.
"This is Xia Yufeng, the lyricist of 'Pillow Dream'. "The success of this song can't be separated from him, so I want to share this award with him," Xu Yewei said to the audience. She then turned to look at Xia Yufeng in the eyes and said,"Thank you, half of this trophy is yours."
