Chapter 200: Songs That Appear in University Textbooks

The release date for *Cat Demon* has been set for next Friday.

The grand finale of *King of Love Songs* is this weekend.

In other words, by the time *Cat Demon* is released, Luo Mo should be relatively free, and perhaps he will even be able to attend the premiere.

Back on Earth, he had only filmed television dramas, mostly web series. He had made a few cameo appearances in films, but they were all insignificant minor roles that didn't require him to attend a premiere at all.

Regarding this, he actually felt it was quite novel, and he was willing to go and show support for Xu Chujing.

Of course, his current top priority is definitely still the grand finale of *King of Love Songs*.

Although he has already achieved five consecutive victories, these are all just the process, not the final result.

Moreover, the format for the grand finale is that each of the four Singers must prepare two songs.

If Luo Mo is responsible for both of Sun Yi and Chen Shanqi's songs, it means he has to provide six new songs for the grand finale of *King of Love Songs*.

Is it a big problem?

It is not a big problem.

Because the production team did not set a theme for the grand finale this time; the Singers can perform freely.

So, it only took Luo Mo a very short time to cobble together the four songs that Sun Yi and Chen Shanqi need to sing, and then he let the two of them go off to practice hard.

As for his own songs, he actually fell into a brief moment of hesitation.

"With so many trump cards, which one should I use?" Luo Mo thought to himself.

He pondered for an entire night and finally made a decision.

"November is here."

"I'll use these two songs," Luo Mo thought to himself.

……..

……..

The well-known music critic, Leshen Dama, has been a bit obsessed lately.

This internet celebrity music critic, who has "Dama" (Auntie) in her name but is actually a young maiden, had long since become a die-hard fan of Luo Mo.

Recently, there has been a subtle trend of her joining the "Mo Xu" organization and becoming a CP Fan.

She has had the song *Lovers in the World*, sung by Luo Mo and Xu Chujing, on loop for two days, and she has even watched the video no less than ten times.

She wrote a sprawling review of over 2,000 words for this song.

Normally, given her popularity, if a music company paid her to write a review, these 2,000-plus words could sell for anywhere between 20,000 and 60,000.

Why is there such a large price fluctuation?

That depends on how many insincere things one has to say.

——That is the price for selling one's conscience!

However, although Leshen is very popular, she rarely takes orders because her family is well-off and she is not short of money; she does it as a hobby.

If it just so happens that she wants to write about a certain song, and then that company happens to come knocking, she will still accept that kind of money delivered to her door.

Today, Leshen opened her Weibo and began sending private messages to Luo Mo's Weibo account.

"Luo Mo! Are you still going to release the last three songs on your album or not?" Like the vast majority of ordinary fans, she began sending private messages to urge for the songs.

What was surprising was that Luo Mo actually replied to her!

"Uploading to all major platforms tomorrow at noon. By the way, I have read your music reviews; they are written very well."

Leshen rubbed her eyes and exclaimed in surprise, "Eh! I got noticed by him!?"

Celebrities' Weibo accounts receive a massive amount of private messages every day, and for a Top Traffic star like Luo Mo, this is even more true.

His fans have a very strong silly streak and often treat his Weibo as a confessional, sending him embarrassing life stories or complaints; when Luo Mo is free, he reads a few and finds them particularly funny.

Like when someone enters a supermarket, pushes aside the curtain, and sticks their finger into the nostril of someone coming the other way……..

One doesn't even know if it's made up or real.

As a master of sarcasm known for her sharp tongue, Leshen felt a sense of elation after receiving recognition from Luo Mo.

She happily took a screenshot of the chat history, posted it on Weibo, and Pinned it.

This Weibo post quickly attracted a crowd of fans.

"Auntie actually got noticed by Luo Mo, you've really made it!"

"Not bad, Auntie's hard work has been seen by Luo Mo!"

"Whoa, a fan-girl—pfft, I mean a fan-mom and her Idol's Mutual Pursuit!"

Of course, more people's focus was on Luo Mo's new songs.

This guy finally remembered that he still had an album that hadn't been fully released!

Although everyone has new songs from Luo Mo to listen to every week, it's not enough, it's not satisfying!

How many more songs will it take to fill everyone up~

It wasn't until 8:00 PM that Luo Mo Studio released the teaser for the new songs, announcing that the last three new songs from the album would be uploaded to all major platforms at 12:00 noon tomorrow.

As for Heavenly King Zhao's *Second Cup of Coffee*, its current level of attention is not even half of what it was before.

The outcome of the head-to-head battle between the two albums had long since been decided.

Now, no one compares these two albums anymore, because there is no comparison to be made.

The next day, Leshen put on her headphones early and opened Penguin Music.

At 11:55, the last three new songs from *Red* were officially released.

"Penguin is still as unpunctual as ever, I like it," Leshen muttered.

She clicked on the first one, a song called *Qingming Rain*.

A song that was a massive hit during many people's student days.

Back then, it was called "non-mainstream," but as time passed, now when people mention songs from that era, they generally use the word "youth."

People go from liking something, to denying their past preferences to prove they have grown, and then to beginning to reminisce and cherish.

It seems that once time passes, everything changes all at once.

The creator and singer of this song is Xu Song, a man who became the Music Director of the company Butterfly while still in his twenties.

Back in those days, he had a resounding title—one of the three giants of QQ Music.

It's just that this person seems different from many Singers who keep breaking their heads trying to squeeze into the entertainment industry; he has always lingered on the fringes of the entertainment industry, occasionally stepping in with half a foot, and occasionally shrinking back.

Once, he wrote a song, and it just so happened that Guo Xiaosi also wrote a song of the same type; the fans over there came over for no reason to pick a fight, and even got a topic to the top of the Hot Search, called: Xu Song get out of the entertainment industry.

This left Xu Song's fans dumbfounded, and they began to doubt themselves.

"When did Xu Song ever enter the entertainment industry!?" everyone was shocked.

Le Shen clicked on this Qingming Rain, and soon a melodious prelude sounded, slightly tinged with sadness.

In that era, many people even wrote short essays for this song in their QQ Space, saying it was written for a deceased ex-girlfriend.

The singing spread through the headphones.

"【The window reveals the first light of dawn, the sun shines on the west bridge, the clouds sway on their own.

Thinking of the hem of your clothes gently swaying in the lotus breeze back then.

Wood carvings flowing with gold, ripples of time, sealed the pen seven years ago,

Because my writing in this life is only for you.】"

Listening to the song, Le Shen sighed in her heart: "The style of the entire album is indeed kept unified."

After listening to the song, she decisively chose to download it.

She didn't have any ideas yet on how to write the song review, so she decided to finish listening to the other two songs first.

The second song is called Red Dust Inn.

This is another work composed and sung by Zhou Jielun, with lyrics by Fang Wenshan.

This song comes from the album Twelve New Works; in this album, there is also a song that Luo Mo himself likes very much, called Big Ben.

This Red Dust Inn follows the path of the martial arts world style.

Therefore, releasing this song at this time is truly just right.

"Everyone was worried that 'Lovers Under the Sky' wasn't enough to satisfy them, and now this Red Dust Inn has arrived!" Le Shen thought to herself.

She finished listening to the whole song, and the words that popped into her mind were: "The martial arts world is about killing and fighting, but it is also about the long-standing affections between men and women."

The theme lyrics of the whole song are written very clearly: "【No matter who leads the way in the martial arts world, I only bow to you.】"

She personally likes both of these songs very much.

She feels they are both songs worth putting on Loop.

"There's only one left, why do I feel a bit reluctant to listen to it?" Le Shen smiled.

It was the first time she had this feeling; in the past, when listening to other Singers' albums, she would have to take a break halfway through because the urge to complain in her heart could not be stopped.

However, you can't go write a song review halfway through, because it is very likely that a "there is no worst, only worse" situation will occur.

If you write it after listening to half, and then supplement it after finishing, you will feel that you were really too rash in your criticism!

Yet, this album Red by Luo Mo can be called a divine album without exaggeration.

It is hard to imagine that he can play with so many tricks in a field rich in Eastern elements.

Le Shen rested her gaze on the last song, which is called A Thousand Degrees.

A song that, on Earth, appeared in university textbooks.

The creator of this song is still Xu Song.

Listening to this song, Le Shen was deeply attracted by the lyrics.

"【Wild shop outside the pass, fireworks extinguished, how can the guest sleep.

Cold comes to the sleeves, who will add two layers for me.

Snow in the third or fourth watch, the wind does not diminish, blowing all night.

It is just pitiful, the thin horse has not had a good rest.】"

For some reason, when she heard "【the thin horse has not had a good rest】", she just felt the artistic conception emerge.

She continued to listen, only feeling that this song seemed completely different from those songs by Yuan Hewen that were suspected of piling up flowery language.

Although there are many relatively obscure terms inside, the overall feeling is understandable, logical, and atmospheric.

"【The partridge's clear resentment, can be heard, but it cannot fly back to the hall,

The old couplets have faded red and the ink is worn, who will come to uncover them.】"

The more Le Shen listened, the more fascinated she became, feeling that the imagery had emerged; there was truly a sense of the dead of winter.

At the same time, the old couplets at the door had faded, and the handwriting could no longer be seen, which rendered the feeling of loneliness and the absence of the old person even more directly.

At this very moment, the song has entered the chorus part.

"【I search for you a thousand degrees, from sunrise to dusk.】"

Hearing this, Le Shen's eyes lit up.

"I like this line, I like it very, very much!" She was like a child who had found a treasure.

"Luo Mo really wrote this song like writing poetry!" She exclaimed.

And she did not know at this time that after Luo Mo released these three songs on major platforms, he really posted a poem on Weibo.

(PS: Second update, asking for monthly tickets.)
