Of course, it's actually not too bad at this point.
Because although Yang Weifan was burdened by his fame, he was tricked by his own mother.
But if he asked Hong Yanwu for help like before, this problem could be easily solved.
But this guy has a very strong self-esteem, is very face-friendly, and is very proud of himself.
He was not only afraid that Hong Yanwu and Quanzi would ask about Zhou Manna, but also felt that he always spoke like this, which made him feel embarrassed.
After thinking about it again, isn't it that I came to the Military Academy of Art to study music theory and composition just to get rid of my dependence on Hong Yanwu?
Simply, this is the first test. Do it yourself.
In this way, Yang Weifan started the mode of asking for trouble.
I completely locked myself in the room, grabbed a guitar and started composing music day and night.
It's a pity that Yang Weifan worked hard with Hong Yanwu as a reference target.
But no matter how talented a person is, no matter how hard he works, how can he be compared with the "cheaters" who go against the common sense of the world and have the golden finger of rebirth?
After a month of such hard work, the two songs that I finally produced were all in vain.
Yang Weifan thought it was good when he first heard it, and he had some feelings about it.
But it just can't be compared with my own tape.
The difference in level became obvious as soon as he listened to it, and the more he listened, the more he felt that the works he created were like shit, and he did not dare to let his mother listen to them.
Well, the complete disappointment and disparity made Yang Weifan feel so depressed that he felt like a complete waste.
The more I thought about it, the more I realized that I was overestimating my abilities and was just looking for fault out of stupidity.
If he hadn't been a man, he would have cried in anger at his "incompetence".
I have no choice but to tear my manuscript into pieces.
Then at the last moment, on December 30, 1983, the last weekend night, I licked my face and called Hong Yanwu for help.
But what shocked him even more was that when Hong Yanwu heard about it, he said it was easy.
Then he opened his mouth and started singing to him on the phone.
"It is said that the ice gourd is sour, and the sourness is wrapped in sweetness. It is said that the ice gourd is sweet, but the sweetness is wrapped in sour. The candied haws is beautiful and has bamboo sticks on it, which symbolizes happiness and reunion. It connects happiness and reunion together.
, no worries, no troubles..."
Hey, don't tell me, this guy's tone-deaf voice sounds catchy.
And the lyrics are good, not off topic, and have the symbolic meaning of happiness and reunion.
Yang Weifan was immediately relieved and thanked him repeatedly.
Of course, no matter how unhappy he was, he still had to endure Hong Yanwu's bullying and blackmail.
So I had to agree to treat myself to a big meal tomorrow night at the newly opened "Maxim" French restaurant in Chongwenmen.
But the matter doesn't end here.
It had only been two minutes since Yang Weifan hung up the phone. He was savoring the song and playing the blurry sound recorded from the phone receiver while trying to write down the lyrics.
Hong Yanwu called back again and actually asked, saying that he had a flash of inspiration and came up with a few lines of another style of song, which seemed more suitable for the Spring Festival Gala.
But the condition is that Yang Weifan has to advertise the "Polar Bear" candied haws on Spring Festival Eve.
Second, they have to help get Yu Wanyu, a famous actor from their neighbor "Beikun", to perform a show on the Spring Festival Gala stage.
Yang Weifan was naturally a little angry.
"You kid, just play it. You are almost like Cao Zijian. People write poems in seven steps, but you start singing songs as soon as you pat your head? Besides, I am not the director of the Spring Festival Gala. I can only try my best to help you. Please,
I can't decide whether you agree or not. If you can't do it, you still have to rely on me."
Unexpectedly, Hong Yanwu was so bold in his words.
"Tch, don't try to shirk it. I'm telling you, as long as you let Gu Yi sing this song to the Spring Festival Gala director and refuse to agree to my conditions, you won't give him the song. He will definitely raise his hands and surrender!"
Hey, this time Yang Weifan really didn’t believe it.
"If you sing, if you sing, I won't believe in evil. You want to go to heaven, right? I don't guarantee it. Anyway, as long as your singing is passable. Even if people refute my face, I will definitely let my mother try it for you.
Can it be dredged?"
I heard Hong Yanwu say "deal" from the microphone, and then he sang it in a womanly voice with a thin voice that he had been holding back.
"Tonight is unforgettable, tonight is unforgettable, no matter where the world is or where we are, we embrace each other from thousands of miles away, and wish the motherland well, the motherland..."
But the soothing, melodious melody, friendly and profound lyrics shocked Yang Weifan immediately.
After listening, he was stunned for a long time, and he could only say something with an unspeakable shock and inexplicable admiration.
"Hold……"
In this way, the classic song "Unforgettable Tonight", which is destined to be the finale of this year's Spring Festival Gala and will be sung year after year, was born.
Hong Yanwu had no idea how dark his skills were.
Because of this originally important task, Director Huang of the Spring Festival Gala still planned to go there after New Year's Day and follow the original history and ask more senior songwriters to compose the song.
For Director Huang, no matter how talented and famous Yang Weifan is, he is still too young and cannot take unnecessary risks.
As a result, just because it was a day or two early, Director Huang got the song from Yang Weifan before New Year's Day.
Stop doing what he wants.
In this way, this classic song that can represent the spirit and aspirations of our people has been successfully plagiarized by Hong Yanwu, adding glory to his brother Yang Weifan.
Such "cutting off" can really be said to be Yang Weifan's luck.
Because in Hong Yanwu’s impression, this song only appeared in 1985.
If he knew the true history, even if he was killed, he wouldn't do such a ruthless thing.
This is simply the fearlessness of the ignorant.
Think about it, how suspenseful this is!
If he misses the trip and something happens, Yang Weifan's reputation as a "thief" will be hard to clean up.
How can such a bad influence be calmed down so easily? There is no way to explain it.
Fortunately, God was kind and we were able to get through this early.
In this way, 1983, which can be described as "restless", came to an end without any danger.
This year, not only did our country experience the baptism of the "security storm", but the world stage was also full of turmoil.
For example, under the Cold War mentality, U.S. President Ronald Reagan proposed a defense plan based on the name of the best-selling movie "Star Wars" that year. This set off a new round of arms race between the United States and the Soviet Union.
Also in this year, Benigno Aquino, the main political opponent of Philippine President Marcos at the time and considered a strong contender for the presidency, returned from the United States to his home country after an absence of three years.
Unexpectedly, he was shot dead as soon as he arrived at the airport.
A wave of protests immediately broke out in the Philippines, and President Marcos was in trouble.
Since then, Aquino’s wife Cory has entered the political stage.
When the Marcos government collapsed three years later, Corydon became the first female president of the Philippines.
In addition, there are also positive factors.
Negotiations on Hong Kong's return have made some Hong Kong people who don't understand the situation feel uneasy.
In recent years, the exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar has gone lower and lower, gradually falling to a historical low.
But this year, the Hong Kong government announced the linked exchange rate system.
The Hong Kong dollar began to be pegged to the U.S. dollar, with the exchange rate set at 7.8 Hong Kong dollars to 1 U.S. dollar. Hong Kong's finances gradually stabilized.
At this time, the connections between Hong Kong and the mainland gradually increased.
It was also this year that the Internet established by the U.S. military began to appear around the world.
The U.S. Department of Defense Communications Agency successfully developed the network TCP/IP protocol to provide unified data transmission rules for various local area networks around the world, and the Internet officially entered the practical stage.
In our country, some schools have not only begun to set up computer courses.
The State Administration of Computer Industry also determined at the National Computer Work Coordination Conference held in Beijing that "IBM" compatible computers and Internet technology will be the future development direction of computers in the Republic.
The world, society, and life are just like this, driven by time, moving forward in a fluctuating and meandering manner.
Maybe there are some special people or people with extraordinary abilities who can see some trajectories clearly and even grasp some context.
But absolutely no one can stop the torrent that rolls in the same direction.
