Huacheng Square.
On the opposite side of Guangzhou Tower, in the largest square in Guangzhou City.
Zhao Zilai sat on the floor with his guitar. On the air screen in front of him, there were four big words: Free song requests. There was a note at the end of the note,"It's a different song. You tell the story, I'll compose it on the spot."
Zhao Zilai was confident that this unusual method of choosing songs would be very attractive, but reality was a little harsh.
"Hahaha! God Ze didn't arrange a meeting!"
"It's been more than half an hour, and no business has come!”
"My friends from Guang Z, hurry up and support us. Don't embarrass our God Ze!”
"Don't worry, I'm on the subway. I'll be there soon!”
"God Ze, can you really sing? If no one wants it, why don't you just sing a song for us to listen to first!”
"How dare you question my husband?! God Ze is so talented, singing is definitely not a problem for him! Moreover, he was composing it on the spot!"
……
That's right, Zhao Zilai had been sitting on the floor for more than half an hour, and no one had asked him for a song.
"Am I that bad? I'm a streamer with millions of fans now! If I remember correctly, I'm still on Weibo's trending searches! Could it be that none of the passersby who passed by recognized me? None of them went online?”
Zhao Ze was puzzled for a reason. One had to know that in the past two days, the entire country had been covered in reports about him. To exaggerate, there wasn't a single person in the Celestial Dynasty who didn't know his name.
However, Zhao Zilai had overlooked one thing. Although everyone knew his name, very few people knew what he looked like.
Firstly, Zhao Zilai had only been streaming for four days, including today, so he didn't have much footage. Secondly, including today's livestream, Zhao Zilai had only done two third-person perspective livestreams. Then, the main point was that the report would use the footage of the " Believe in the Future " on the roof of the Hai University agricultural science building to save the junior who wanted to jump off the building, and the barehanded subduing of four armed robbers at the bank of San Y. These video materials were all from a first-person perspective. The people watching the report didn't know what Zhao Zilai looked like.
……
After another ten minutes, Zhao Zilai and the hundreds of thousands of viewers in his stream finally received their first song request.
"Ze God…Ze God! I…I'm coming!"
Great, the first person to come was a fan! However-
"Brother, I've finally waited for you! If you didn't come, I wouldn't be able to continue playing!”Zhao Zilai stood up excitedly and held the man's hands tightly. He was not pretending for the sake of the live broadcast. He had been sitting here awkwardly for more than 40 minutes. If no one came, it would be too awkward!
"Yes…yes!" The man who looked like a university student was flattered.
"Tell me your story!" Zhao Zilai sat back down on the ground.
"Yes! God Ze, I have a girlfriend of ten years…" The boy paused and continued," We broke up two days ago. I don't want to say too much about the reason for the breakup. It's just that after the breakup, I thought about committing suicide. However, after seeing God Ze's song,'Believe in the Future', my hope for life was rekindled. After listening to 'To the Sea', I had the conviction to fight again! So, God Ze, I'm really grateful to you!”
"So you've let go of it now?”Zhao Ze asked.
"It should…be considered!" the boy answered uncertainly.
"Alright then! If you can hold back your tears after listening to my song, it means that you've let go.‘Can we be friends? This was the beginning of the story. Can we still be friends? This was the end of the story. The name of this song was 'Ten Years.'”
After saying that, Zhao Zilai started playing the prelude…
"If those two words hadn't trembled, I wouldn't have found myself in pain.”
"No matter what, it's just a breakup.”
The bullet comments in the live broadcast room exploded when Zhao Zilai opened his mouth. Everyone was mesmerized by his heavenly voice. The song that the system gave Zhao Zilai was truly unparalleled in this world. In other words, no one in this world could sing better than Zhao Zilai. In addition to the immersive buff, it really answered the sentence,"This song should only exist in the sky. It's rare to hear it in the human world."”
"If there are no requirements for tomorrow, holding hands is like traveling.”
"There are thousands of doors, but one of them has to leave first.”
" Since I can't stay in your embrace, why don't I enjoy it while crying when I leave?"
The boy's face gradually crumbled under Zhao Zilai's every word. When Zhao Zilai sang the words " tears flow ", he could no longer hold it in and tears flowed out of his eyes!
"Ten years ago, I didn't know you. You didn't belong to me.”
"We are still the same, accompanying a stranger.”
" Walking through the streets that I'm getting familiar with."
Ten years ago," Can we be friends?”This was the beginning of the story.
"Ten years later, we will be friends and we can still greet each other.”
"It's just that I can't find a reason to hug that kind of gentleness anymore.”
"Lovers will inevitably become friends in the end.”
Ten years later, can we still be friends?”This was the end of the story.
The bullet comments in the stream were unprecedentedly unified. Everyone was posting the tearful emoji, and this would become the norm in Zhao Ze's stream in the future. Those listeners who had similar experiences and were more emotionally invested were in no mood to send bullet comments. They had long been lying on the table and crying!
"It wasn't until we became friends for many years that I realized that my tears weren't for you, but for others.”
The main character of the story in front of Zhao Zilai was crying his heart out. Among everyone, his senses were the strongest. No one could hold back their tears in their own story under such circumstances. Even though the lyrics at the back became more carefree, the feelings had already been paid, and no matter how carefree they were, they could not be taken back. The seemingly carefree lyrics once again poked the listener's tears.
Zhao Zilai didn't comfort the boy. Instead, he put down his guitar and went to a small shop by the square to buy a box of beer. At this moment, the popularity of the live streaming room had risen to 300,000 because of the opening and the quality of the first song," Ten Years."
"Here!" Zhao Zilai opened the beer bottle and handed it to the boy.
"Thank you!" The boy thanked him softly and drank half of the bottle in one gulp.
Zhao Zilai thought that the boy would vent his anger after drinking the wine, but surprisingly, he did not say a word. Perhaps he had really let it go. Who knew?
"Hello, I also want to request a song!”At this moment, a young man who looked a few years older than Zhao Zilai walked over." Actually, I've been watching you for a long time. I didn't want to join in the fun, but after hearing your 'Ten Years' earlier, I couldn't help myself. I also have a story about " ten years." I've been working in Guang D alone for ten years, and I'm still single. I've never been in a relationship. I don't have a love story like this guy. I only have ten years of wandering in Guang D. I wonder what kind of songs you can compose in these ten years?”
The young man's smile was very warm, but it also carried a trace of vicissitudes that did not match his age.
"Here!"
"Ah?" The young man was surprised. He didn't understand why Zhao Zelai would hand him a bottle of wine at this time. He thought for a moment and said," Heh, you mean I'll cry like this guy next to me later?”As he spoke, he revealed his seemingly warm and genial smile.
"Yes!" Zhao Zilai nodded.
The young man smiled again and shook his head gently. He had cried when he heard the song " Ten Years " just now. Although he had never had such an experience before, he was still affected by the scene and shed two lines of tears. Now that he was about to face a song that Zhao Zilai had specially composed for him, he really did not have the confidence to hold back his tears.
"You've been in Guang D for ten years, so you should be able to speak some Cantonese!”Zhao Ze asked.
"Yes! Of course! However, his words were not standard. After all, he was not a genuine person from Guangdong.”The young man took a sip of his wine and answered in a very inaccurate Cantonese.
"You said that you don't have a love story. You only have ten years of wandering alone in Guang D. Then this song of mine, of all things, will be called 'Ten Years of Love in Guangd'.”
Zhao Zilai played the prelude.
"Leave quietly, with loneliness.”
" The crowded memories are erased by time.”
Zhao Zilai's voice instantly calmed the young man's shocked expression when he heard the song was called " Love Story ". He instantly recalled the days when he had just left home ten years ago. It wasn't just the young man who requested the song. All the listeners in the live streaming room, no matter what they were doing, as long as they heard Zhao Zilai's voice, they would instantly be brought into the situation that he had set.
"I have been wandering in Guang D for ten years. Sometimes, I miss the time when we were together.”
"Let this sky connect us and let us miss you.”
The song reached its climax without warning. Zhao Zilai suddenly changed to Cantonese, and it was not a standard Cantonese song.
" The sky is still willful even after the clouds have left. Is it because it believes that caring makes it easier to give up?”
"You have to have nothing in the end to be fearless.”
Zhao Zilai switched to Mandarin again.
Ten years, I'm still not a citizen. It's been ten years, but my Cantonese is still not up to standard. When I opened my mouth, even I knew that I didn't belong here. Ten years of loss, truth, and falsehood, and finally loneliness.
"Smile a little more, change thoroughly.”
"Face this world directly.”
"I have been wandering in Guang D for ten years. Sometimes, I miss the time when we were together.”
"Let this sky connect us and let us miss you.”
"The sky is still willful after the clouds have left. Does it believe in the next encounter?”
"Even if you end up with nothing, you have nothing to fear.”
The theme of the song was " love story ", but the lyrics did not contain the word " love ". The lyrics were filled with the helplessness of drifting, as well as the sadness and emotion of losing. The love in idol dramas was like a child's fight and jealousy. Squeezing in a cramped rented house to cook, argue, make up, and then hug each other to sleep was the love that most people had. Because of love, lovers stayed together in the poor material world. However, because of the various aspects of life, they were easily separated. Love was real, and separation was also real. This is our normal, real life.
"I believe in you, just like how we were together back then.”
"Happiness is gone, I sigh and lament about the past.”
"I believe in you, even if being strong is just a mask of bravery.”
" It can't be less. The courage to live a wonderful life..."
……
Zhao Zilai imitated the Cantonese singing style of Zhang Guorong, which was the original singing style of the Rain God of Guangdong. He also sang the song in Mandarin with a casual vicissitudes of life. This song was a love story, but not a love story. It was more about life. There was nostalgia, sadness, unwillingness, and even the courage to pursue it. Beneath the faint sorrow was a positive spirit.
Living in it, for the vast majority of people, was not in Zhongguancun, there was no Python, no Blockchain, and there was no think different. Under the dim street lights, beside the food stalls, there were years or decades of wandering, and the good girls I missed. I like you so much!
Those years might have passed, but they would not disappear. Those people might have missed it, but they still remained in his memory. Yes, time had passed and things had changed. But so what? After lamenting, he still bravely threw himself into the turbulence of life. Even if he lost everything in the end, he was fearless.
