~9 min read 1,750 words

"Dad, Mom! The person on this stage is Tong Shu, and our boss wrote a song for him, specifically tailored for the character I'm playing in the movie." At home, Xu Wai said to his parents with immense excitement.

On New Year's Eve, his parents heard this news and felt it was a great honor, thinking that when they went to pay New Year calls, they could brag about it to their friends and relatives.

"Did you watch the Spring Festival Gala this year?"

"Yes, yes, yes, that's the song Tong Shu sang."

"Oh my, this song was written specifically for the character my son is going to play in his upcoming movie!"

"That's right, a song written specifically for him, and he even got to sing it at the Spring Festival Gala!"

Honestly, looking at it this way, this treatment really seems invincible!

What does it mean for a boss to value someone?

Isn't this fucking what it means for a boss to value someone?

Promoting your character all the way to the Spring Festival Gala!

Xu Wai excitedly shook his leg in the living room while watching the live broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala.

Soon, the song title appeared on the big screen.

——"A Spray of Plum Blossoms"!

………

………

"A Spray of Plum Blossoms," one of the representative works of the Singer Fei Yuqing.

"Little Brother" Fei Yuqing, before being nicknamed the Dirty King, held the title of 【Evergreen Tree of the Music Scene】.

Being called an Evergreen Tree is naturally because he debuted early, has high seniority, and after so many years, some of his classic songs are still widely circulated, and his Singing ability is also top-notch.

What is the status of this "A Spray of Plum Blossoms" in China?

Many people can't even read "【Snowflakes drifting, North wind whistling】".

They can only sing it.

As for his dirtiness... the currently popular "driving" culture, he was already playing it very smoothly countless years ago.

Luo Mo still remembers a brain teaser Fei Yuqing told on a certain program: "A man has long legs, guess a type of food."

The person answering couldn't figure it out no matter what.

He smiled and said, the answer is—cake.

Seeing the other person understood, he asked again: "Then what about a woman with long legs? Guess a type of daily necessity."

The other person still couldn't answer.

Fei Yuqing smiled and gave the answer: "Lipstick."

The most outrageous thing is, this person's voice is always very scholarly and Gentle when he speaks, you know!

But the dirtiness is truly dirty! The driving speed is truly fast!

Even web novel writers have to bow down and admit defeat!

Fei Yuqing? No, it's Fei Yu-dirty!

Because this person has such high seniority and is older, he is a relatively distant figure to many young people, so everyone's impression of him is generally that he is refined and elegant, untainted by the secular world, and very ethereal, and he does indeed possess such a temperament.

But in recent years, isn't "archaeology" popular in the entertainment industry? Many videos from the early years have been dug up.

Fei Yuqing's dirty jokes are simply inexhaustible! Enough to keep you watching for an entire afternoon.

Among them, a very famous one is Fei Yuqing's classic weight-loss dirty joke: "You chase me, if you catch me, I'll let you—hehehe!"

This joke is truly like magic sounds lingering in the ears; after watching it, for at least three days, that "hehehe!" will ring in your ears.

Therefore, he also happily earned the title of 【Literary and Physical Dual Blossom】: Literarily he can "A Spray of Plum Blossoms," and physically he can "hehehe."

But it must be said that Fei Yuqing's voice is indeed very unique, which makes him not only have an advantage in Singing, but even his joke-telling has a distinct flavor.

Luo Mo had also thought about it, who would be better to sing "A Spray of Plum Blossoms," a song that left several classic scenes in "Charlotte Troubles"?

He thought for a while and finally decided: "In the studio, only Tong Shu can sing it!"

Although Tong Shu's vocal style is different from Fei Yuqing's, Luo Mo imagined it, and it should also have distinct personal characteristics, and he could also sing out the essence of this song.

As a result, after trying it in the studio's recording room, Luo Mo felt his decision was indeed incredibly wise!

Tong Shu really sang the effect he wanted!

This song needs to be sung with artistic conception.

Tong Shu's ethereal and clear voice can indeed sing out that feeling of heavy snow falling.

Therefore, Luo Mo personally was actually quite looking forward to this stage.

At this moment, seeing Tong Shu standing on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, the prelude to the whole song began to sound.

As soon as the prelude appeared, a large number of the audience were shocked!

"Damn, this is retro?"

"The sense of the era is too strong! This style of song makes me dream back to my parents' era!"

"Not bad, Luo Mo is even capable of this new style."

"The Yueqi sound in this prelude... could it be Chinese Style?"

"Could this be the legendary old-school?"

Of course, there were also some people who frowned when they heard the prelude.

Most of them disliked it for being too old-fashioned and outdated.

All along, Luo Mo has been the one leading the trend.

Why did he inexplicably start being so retro and so old-fashioned this time?

But when Tong Shu started to sing, many people had a different feeling.

Just listening to him standing on the stage and singing:

【"True love is as vast as the grasslands,

Layer upon layer of wind and rain cannot block it,

There is always a time when the clouds part and the sun emerges,

Ten thousand rays of sunlight shine upon you and me."】

The style of the lyrics still gave people a strong sense of nostalgia.

But Tong Shu's unique vocal timbre, along with the overall artistic conception created by this song, was just very catchy!

As for those middle-aged people, and even those of old age, sitting in front of the television, they were completely captivated.

"This young man sings beautifully!"

"This voice sounds quite unique."

"I like this song."

In reality, for singing stages, the hardest audience to please isn't necessarily the young, but those of old age.

To be able to make those of old age like this song, the difficulty was truly not small.

But "A Spray of Plum Blossoms" was definitely capable of achieving this!

Just listening to Tong Shu continue singing, the only difference was that he didn't have to tilt his head up and stare at the ceiling while singing, like Fei Yuqing.

【"True love is like a plum blossom that has bloomed,

Cold ice and snow cannot submerge it,

Blooming right on the coldest branch,

Seeing spring walk toward you and me."】

At Xu Wai's home, he listened to this song and was stunned for a moment.

This style of song was something he hadn't expected at all at first.

However, just as he was about to open his mouth to say something, he saw that his parents were already completely immersed in the singing.

Especially his mother; the expression on her face was very obvious—she super loved this song!

To them, this song was just too evocative! Too evocative!

This time, Tong Shu was truly—gaining fans among mothers!

Xu Wai initially muttered to himself: "How could the boss do it like this this time?"

But if you were to say this song wasn't good... he also felt a sense of listening to a classic old song.

"Let's keep listening, it hasn't even reached the chorus climax yet," Xu Wai thought.

At this very instant, Tong Shu lightly gripped the microphone, his singing voice spreading melodiously, and the pitch began to rise.

His bright and clear voice was best embodied in this moment.

It was as if he was meant to sing of the sky, to sing of the snowflakes!

And once the chorus climax came out, the feeling and layers of this song changed instantly.

【"Snowflakes drifting, North wind whistling,

The world is vast and boundless,

A spray of cold plum blossoms stands proudly in the snow,

Just to drift with fragrance for the beloved—"】

Listening to the song, Xu Wai's eyes lit up instantly!

"This song, no one else could ever sing this feeling!" he said in his heart.

"The personal style is too strong, and the sense of artistic conception and atmosphere it sings out are both too good!"

As a film Actor, naturally, this kind of song that comes with its own artistic conception and atmosphere was most suitable for him.

Before, the boss told him there was a song tailor-made for his character, and he had been wondering what kind of song it would be?

Now he thought—it just had to be this kind of song!

Xu Wai was even starting to imagine what kind of scene in the movie this song should be paired with to be the best!

"Heavy snow, sky, Plum Blossom!"

"This character, this figure, definitely has very distinct personal traits!"

"Proud! Aloof from the world! Probably needs to be acted quite handsomely too!"

Snow, in film and television works, must always be filmed well.

Many actors also want to perform a scene in the snow.

Female actors feel that paired with snow, they will look very beautiful.

Male actors mostly feel they will look very handsome and have a lot of charisma.

For example, things like Romance scenes in the snow, or dancing with a sword in the snow.

Just listening to Tong Shu continue to sing on stage:

【"Love what I love, without regret,

This affection remains long in the heart."】

In this way, it made Xu Wai feel more and more that this song not only had good artistic conception, but also persistence toward Romance.

【"Love what I love, without regret." He chewed on this lyric and said in his heart: "Written well! This line is written well!"】

He now felt: "I don't even need to look at the script; this character is already fleshed out in my heart just from this one song!"

"The boss really values me!" Xu Wai thought.
