In Zheng Qian's memory, the band Beyond can be said to be the gods of Hong Kong's rock music scene in their previous lives.
Many of their songs attract countless guitar beginners to practice crazily.
In addition to "Really Love You", this song "Boundless Sea and Sky" is the song that Zheng Qian was willing to practice crazily even if his fingers were calloused when he first learned guitar in his previous life.
Because you can show off.
In the years when he looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle and felt sad for spring and autumn, Zheng Qian walked around the campus with his guitar on his back more than once. When he saw a beautiful girl, he stopped and became very cold and indifferent.
With one foot on the public chair, he took off his guitar and started strumming.
He sings "Broader Sea and Sky" or "Really Love You" coquettishly, with a charming voice and amazing momentum, which always attracts the admiring eyes of girls...
It can be said that playing the guitar and singing songs by the band Beyond was definitely a magical tool for picking up girls in that era, but sometimes when I was young and ignorant, I often sang "Really Love You" to the girl I admired...
If anyone who learns guitar has never played Beyond, they have definitely wasted their youth.
And because of the connotation of the lyrics, many years later, the song "Broader Sea and Sky" not only continued to win numerous awards, but also transcended the scope of language and music and became a belief and belief of many people.
When the simple chords sounded, the three people in the lounge fell silent and listened carefully to the Cantonese version of "Broader Seas and Sky".
Zheng Qian was brewing his emotions and tried to keep his voice as low as possible.
"Today, I watched the snow drifting by in the cold night
Drifting far away with a cooled heart
Chasing in the wind and rain, unable to distinguish the traces in the fog
The sky is vast, you and me
But it will change..."
The light singing voice and simple chords made Zheng Qian sitting there look like an elegant, easy-going and artistic young man.
Song Weifeng just thought that the prelude was okay and comfortable to listen to, but in the eyes of professional music director Wan Feng, Zheng Qian seemed to be radiating light at this moment, and the notes and singing sounds reached his ears, making Song Weifeng feel abnormal
Excited.
Countless images quickly formed in my mind, and the sadness of a young man who worked hard for his ideals and suffered defeat in a foreign country suddenly emerged.
Everything is the calm before the storm.
Everything is momentary.
That feeling, like an electric shock, began to quietly brew in Wan Feng's heart.
"How many times have I faced cold looks and ridicule?
Never give up on your ideals
A moment of trance, a feeling of loss
Unconsciously it has faded
Love in my heart..."
Although she knew little about music, Sally still found the song very beautiful.
She looked at Wan Feng and suddenly found that the usually calm music director now looked a little excited. He even took deep breaths to force himself to suppress the surging emotions in his heart, but the tightly held hands betrayed him.
His hands are shaking.
Sally was stunned when she suddenly heard a burst of intense string music, and the passionate singing in her ears was like a drum in the evening and a bell in the morning, pouring into her heart one by one.
"Forgive me for my unruly, indulgent love of freedom in this life.
I am also afraid that I will fall down one day——"
Sally turned around suddenly, her eyes widened, and she looked at Zheng Qian in disbelief.
"Anyone can abandon their ideals
How can I be afraid that one day it will be just you and me—"
She finally understood this song, so much so that her heart felt as if she had been hit by a bullet. The strong resonance made Sally feel numb all over. Her whole body seemed to be completely down, and she stared at Zheng Qian blankly.
Even Song Weifeng was shocked at this moment.
He understood the lyrics and Zheng Qian's ideals.
The lyrics and music are full of peace, struggle and encouragement. He knows the power of this song. Although it is only a short paragraph, everyone who has struggled for their ideals can hear a portrayal of their own youth in it.
No matter how many hardships and hardships there are, we must continue to struggle. Although we are laughed at for not knowing our own abilities, we still work hard for our ideals and embrace the future.
I don’t want to be constrained or restricted. No matter what the outside world thinks, I just want to follow my own path!
Song Weifeng is even a little lucky that he has discovered a treasure like Zheng Qian. Not only can he create classic Mandarin songs, he seems to be more proficient in the creation of Cantonese songs!
Well, many years later, when Zheng Qian becomes famous all over the country, will his name appear in his autobiography?
Song Weifeng was a little distracted.
"Still be free and sing my song forever
Traveling thousands of miles——
Forgive me for being uninhibited, indulgent and loving freedom in this life
I am also afraid that I will fall one day..."
Zheng Qian himself was so excited.
He didn't care if he strummed a few wrong chords. The strong resonance made him feel excited at the moment. The powerful iron lung allowed him to control the song with ease, and also allowed him to express his emotions in the song with ease.
This emotion was conveyed very successfully.
Wan Feng felt like he was about to cry. He looked at the young face in front of him, took off his glasses and wiped them silently with a cloth. His expression gradually calmed down, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.
Soon, the song came to an end. Zheng Qian put down his guitar, relaxed his mood slightly, and looked at Wan Feng.
Then he found that Wan Feng was looking at him intently.
The two people's eyes suddenly met like this. They were both slightly startled and slightly embarrassed, and then they quickly separated.
When Sally saw this scene, a big question mark appeared in her head.
Wan Feng coughed dryly, put on his glasses again, and nodded with a smile: "Yes, it still tastes the same, and the style of "Really Love You" is exactly the same. I believe this song will become popular in Hong Kong, no, it will become popular throughout Asia!
"
Zheng Qian looked happy: "Then we can cooperate happily?"
“A pleasure to work with!”
Wan Feng stood up and took the initiative to shake hands with Zheng Qian: "It takes five songs to release an EP. Zheng Qian, can you complete it in a short time?"
"Okay!" Zheng Qian nodded.
Wan Feng smiled and said: "Although "Really Love You" is very popular in Hong Kong, Zheng Qian, you are still a newcomer, so you may not invest too much resources in this EP. In addition, I need this song "Broad Sea and Sky",
You know, I don’t have a high say as a music director, and I don’t have the final say at Universal Records alone. I need to convince our boss with this song. I will let Sally stay in Beijing for two days. You can
Once the lyrics and music of "Broad Sea and Sky" are completed, I can give it to her and let her take it back to Hong Kong."
"Okay, I will write this song tomorrow." Zheng Qian nodded.
Wan Feng looked at Zheng Qian, his eyes full of admiration, but also regretful: "Actually, if you join Universal Music Group, I believe that in a few years, you will become another Hua Zi, the new generation of music king. What a pity...
"
"Mr. Wan is so ridiculous. I don't dare compare myself to Hua Zai." Zheng Qian shook his head.
Afterwards, the two left their contact information and agreed to meet in Hong Kong soon to discuss the details of cooperation.
A big thing can be accomplished in just over half an hour. Zheng Qian felt refreshed and in a good mood. He said hello to Song Weifeng and hurried to the celebration banquet hotel. He wanted to tell everyone this good news!
