Chapter 753: 《Cute Woman》 and 《Lying》

The song "Confession Balloon" can be said to have pushed the atmosphere at the venue to a climax once again.

A sweet and romantic atmosphere began to spread throughout the entire Olympic Stadium.

Everyone listening to this song felt very satisfied.

Especially those couples or married pairs who came to the concert together.

Honestly, if an ordinary man were to write and sing the lyrics to this song, he might well be scolded online.

Just look at what you've written and what you're singing.

What is this: "My dear, don't be willful; your eyes are saying 'I do'"?

Heh, men—so ordinary yet so confident.

But you have to remember, the one singing this song is Luo Mo!

He is Luo Mo!

Who could refuse him?

But in all seriousness, although "Confession Balloon" is a typical tool for a confession, a confession itself requires that final push, that tacit mutual understanding shared at the tail end of the ambiguous phase.

It is not about turning the impossible into the possible.

Otherwise, all that remains is endless awkwardness.

As the song "Confession Balloon" ended, Luo Mo had originally considered having tens of thousands of balloons float up in the Olympic Stadium during the final few seconds to achieve the most stunning and romantic visual effect.

But later, due to environmental concerns and the trouble of obtaining approvals, he abandoned this idea.

A new song, just like that, was finished.

Lv Yi sat in the audience, and his intuition told him that this was yet another song that would dominate the charts.

Moreover, Luo Mo's chart dominance is always different from others'.

Fake chart dominance: aggressively rushing the charts during the new song period.

Real chart dominance: still on the charts ten years later.

A Singer like Luo Mo is the most unsolvable in the music scene.

"I beg you, your dozens of songs have been in the top 100 of the Hot Song Chart for years!"

He never goes out of style; what are you supposed to do?

After the new song was finished, enthusiastic screams and cheers erupted throughout the venue.

"So worth it, I hit the jackpot!"

"I feel like I've used up all my good luck for the entire year!"

"The feeling of being in the first batch of listeners is just too great!"

"I feel a bit like I'm sitting in the judges' seat; if it weren't actually good, I'd have to offer a few critiques!"

"Ah, I feel like I've fallen in love!"

However, is just one "Confession Balloon" enough?

Come on, the name of this tour is "Love," after all.

Although our naming might seem casual, the songs must be Ox!

Luo Mo stood in the center of the stage and said, "Alright, the new song 'Confession Balloon' has come to an end."

"I have two pieces of news to share with everyone here."

"One is good news, and one is bad news. Which one would everyone like to hear first?"

As soon as he finished speaking, if you listened closely, the sound of the crowd shouting "good news" was louder.

I have to say, the fans at the venue are quite full of Kindness.

Luo Mo, however, said, "Is that so? Then I insist on telling the bad news first."

He smiled and said, "I regret to inform you all that for the next song, you won't be able to sing along with me again."

After these words, some people at the venue were slightly stunned at first.

Luo Mo's songs are all so popular; how could there be one you can't sing along to?

Unless...

In an instant, the venue was in an uproar again.

There was no need to even state the good news; it was obvious that the next one was another new song!

"Yes, the good news is—the new song 'Cute Woman,' dedicated to you all!" Luo Mo said loudly.

Amidst the cheers of the entire venue, the song title began to appear on the big screen.

I have to say, the title of this song is quite straightforward.

And before the prelude even began, Luo Mo let out a: "Woo~~~"

The official version of this song is just like that; it enters the prelude only after this sound is made.

Interestingly, this was the first song on Zhou Jielun's debut album, "JAY."

Therefore, some fans said, "A single 'Woo~' opened a new era for Chinese pop music."

And it's true, it really does have a sense of having appeared out of thin air.

What's more coincidental is that this song was released in 2000, at the start of the new century.

Zhou Jielun also received a Nomination for Best Composer at the Golden Melody Awards for this song back then.

As for the Lyricist of this song, she is quite special; her name is Xu Ruoxuan.

That era didn't have the term "Pure Desire Style."

If it had, she would certainly have been a representative figure; calling her the leader of the Pure Desire Style wouldn't be an exaggeration.

Of course, I know your deepest impression of her is likely the three films collectively known as the "Angel Trilogy."

A woman who accompanies you as you "grow up."

Seriously speaking, back then Naicha Lun was just a Newcomer who hadn't officially debuted, and Xu Ruoxuan even made a guest appearance in the MV for this song of his; it could be said she gave him her full support.

But in recent years, because of some incidents, her reputation can be said to have plummeted.

Returning to the song itself, there is a saying that this song was originally written for Wu Zongxian, and Zhou Jielun was still a person in his company at that time, very green.

Yang Junrong, who helped Wu Zongxian manage the company, was directly attracted after listening to Zhou Jielun's demo and stated he wanted him to release this song.

Wu Zongxian was even worried that Zhou Jielun didn't look good enough, expressing deep concern.

Yang Junrong then said: A small face is actually quite photogenic.

At this moment, the sound of the song's intro rang out inside the Olympic Stadium.

The intro to this song is not short, lasting a full half-minute.

But it must be said, for a song from the year 2000, listening to its melody now, you still won't feel it is outdated.

Luo Mo stood on the stage, using a somewhat lazy style of Singing to sing this song.

"【Want to have a helicopter,

Want to fly to the universe with you,

Want to melt together with you,

Melt into the Milky Way...】"

In this era where everyone is a bit of a pervert, lyrics that wouldn't have felt like a problem back then now feel a bit strange.

But fortunately, this song just expresses its love in a very straightforward way.

Without any concealment, and without the slightest restraint.

In this regard, it seems a bit different from most of Luo Mo's previous love songs.

Just listen to Luo Mo singing on stage:

"【Beautiful Cute Woman who makes me blush,

Gentle Cute Woman who makes my heart ache,

Transparent Cute Woman who moves me,

Bad Cute Woman who drives me crazy...】"

The screaming of the whole audience, it never stopped.

Some more direct men are called straight men.

And some men are called handsome guys who throw straight balls.

These days, many people actually like this kind of unmasked, incredibly straightforward love.

Many people live very cautiously, even a little bit insecure; she needs to feel your blatant affection before she dares to slowly approach you.

Two consecutive romantic love songs expressing affection made the audience at the scene scream until their throats were hoarse.

At the same time, there were many CP Fans of the Mo Xu CP at the scene.

They all had self-awareness.

"These songs must all be sung for Jing, right?"

"Jing must be at the scene too!"

"Woooo! He is so good at this!"

After this song was finished, Luo Mo did not say a single word to introduce the next song.

Because the next song needed no introduction.

As soon as its intro sounds, people at the scene would be so excited they would want to stand up!

You must know, this song is a classic Pre-chorus Kill!

It is called—"Common Jasmine Orange"!

"Ah!!! It's 'Common Jasmine Orange'!"

"My favorite!"

"It's killing me, it's really killing me!"

"This man is trying to drive me crazy!"

The grand chorus of the whole venue began just like that.

Many fans' memories were pulled back to that summer.

That summer when Luo Mo participated in the variety show "King of Love Songs"!

In that year, "Common Jasmine Orange" could be said to have crazily topped the charts; it was incredibly popular.

The audience present could almost all sing it.

If Luo Mo were willing, he could just sit on the stage without making a sound, directly learning from Wu Bai, holding a concert and letting the fans sing his songs for him.

What is even more magical is that, also being a grand chorus, some songs just feel better and have more atmosphere when sung.

"Common Jasmine Orange" is a classic example of this!

"【The sparrows outside the window are gossiping on the telephone pole,

You say this line has a very summery feeling,

The pencil in my hand goes back and forth on the paper,

I use a few lines of text to describe who you are to me.】"

Luo Mo just stood on the stage singing loudly like this, and the fans just followed along singing the whole way.

Singing to the end, Luo Mo also felt that the more he sang, the more enjoyable it was.

After all, it was his first time holding a concert.

By the time the ten-thousand-person chorus ended, Luo Mo had effectively sung six songs in one breath.

He needed to take a break and go backstage to change his clothes.

At times like this, programs are usually arranged for everyone to watch, to prevent any awkward silences.

Like the adolescent band Mayday, who simply filmed a movie and played it for the audience during the concert's intermission.

Yeah, it's just watching that bunch of childish brats save the world, each one acting like they have superpowers.

Best Actor Huang Bo was even specially invited to be in the movie.

Luo Mo's arrangement here was actually quite thoughtful.

He needed to rest and change costumes, and the fans at the venue also needed a break.

So, he invited his obedient apprentice Ding Xiaoyu to play two piano pieces at the concert.

With a beautiful girl playing the piano, naturally, no one would feel bored.

It was just right to calm everyone's mood and let their voices, which were about to go hoarse from shouting, have a little rest.

As soon as Ding Xiaoyu appeared, many audience members couldn't help but get excited.

"Yu! My Yu!"

"The little sister has become even prettier."

"Damn, she is really so beautiful now!"

"I thought she was pretty back during 'Reset'!"

In reality, Luo Mo actually had a little bit of a mischievous streak.

He arranged for Ding Xiaoyu to play "Canon" on stage.

Many audience members suffering from "Reset" aftereffects felt like there was a bomb about to explode somewhere when they heard this piece.

Fortunately, Ding Xiaoyu's piano rhythm was on the soothing side, which was very different from the bomb ringtone in the web drama "Reset".

Once "Canon" was finished, the second piece instantly brought the audience a Surprise.

"'Confession Night'! It's Luo Mo's 'Confession Night'!"

This was the violin piece Luo Mo played on "Creating Idols".

Ding Xiaoyu was playing the piano version.

There was a very obvious difference between the piano version and the violin version.

This piece was actually a favorite for many people.

When the most stunning middle section of the entire piece arrived, Ding Xiaoyu suddenly stopped playing.

The sound of a violin suddenly resounded throughout the entire venue!

The stage passage opened again, and Luo Mo stood there, playing the violin!

The spotlight hit him, and the Yueqi added a touch of elegance to him.

The tone of this piece was on the sentimental side.

It was just right to use this instrumental music to bridge into the subsequent songs.

Everyone had already tasted enough of the sweetness in Romance just now.

So, it was time to let you all have a bit of the bitterness in Romance!

Seeing that "Confession Night" had ended, Luo Mo leaned against the other side of the piano and put down the violin in his hand.

"Everyone has sung so many songs together, your throats must be tired."

"It's okay, everyone can rest for a while longer!"

"The new song 'Lying', dedicated to everyone!"

After saying this, he nodded at Ding Xiaoyu.

The girl's slender fingers began to play the prelude of the song on the piano.

There is no need to say how popular this song is on Earth.

The Lyricist is Shi Rencheng, and the composer's name is hard to write; those two characters are sensitive words and will be censored.

Just listening to Luo Mo Singing in a deep voice:

"【I've had a few decent partners,

Speaking of which, I'm not lonely or alone,

Maybe I'm too wild, making others uneasy,

That's why the results all ended in failure.】"

In the audience, Lv Yi listened to the song and looked at the lyrics on the teleprompter, letting out a sigh of relief.

Finally, finally, a bitter love song!

If there were a few more sweet songs, a Middle-aged Person like me, nearly fifty, would melt right there on the spot!

Especially since he felt his precious daughter was getting a bit carried away listening to sweet songs.

"I feel like she can't wait to start dating right now!"

"No way, you must keep your eyes open when falling in love!"

"Good job, Luo Mo, hurry and tell her that there is bitterness to be tasted in love!"

Just listening to Luo Mo continue to sing:

"【I don't have any shadows or demons,

You must not take it to heart,

I'm not fragile, and besides, what kind of wound is that,

Anyway, isn't that just how Romance is.】"

Lv Yi listened to the song and looked at the lyrics, feeling that it seemed... quite carefree?

It's just that Luo Mo's way of Singing didn't seem to have anything to do with being carefree; it had a very strong sense of being deeply trapped.

"That's really strange," Lv Yi thought to himself.

As a well-known composer in the industry, he often encountered a situation where he and others would write lyrics and music for a Singer to perform, only for the feeling of the initial performance to be completely contrary to the artistic conception of the lyrics and music! They were unable to grasp the original creative intent.

But it shouldn't be like that for Luo Mo.

Because the lyrics and music were both written by him, and he was the one singing them.

"Unless... there is a hidden mystery in this song!"

At this moment, Lv Yi narrowed his eyes slightly and suddenly thought of the song's title.

In an instant, he slapped his thigh hard: "Smack—!"

His beloved daughter beside him was startled by her own old man.

"This is... wh, what's wrong?" The girl was bewildered.

In the midst of his daughter's stunned gaze, Lv Yi raised his finger, pointed excitedly at Luo Mo on the stage, and said loudly: "This song is called 'Lying'! It's called 'Lying'!"

"I know that." The daughter became even more puzzled.

It's not like I can't read, and is it really worth getting this excited just because it's called 'Lying'?

Seeing that his daughter still hadn't reacted, Lv Yi said loudly: "Reverse talk! The whole song is speaking in reverse, the lyrics of the whole song are lying!"

Just as the girl looked at the lyrics with a scrutinizing gaze, Luo Mo happened to reach the chorus climax.

"【I am not lying, why would I need to lie,

You know me, I would never pretend with you.

How could I be lying, please don't think you are that unforgettable,

The smile is real, it's not me putting on a brave front.】"

Listening to the song, looking at the lyrics, and then feeling the weight of her old man's words just now, the girl suddenly got goosebumps!

It was truly superb!

The artistic conception of the whole song came out all at once!

And when the song reached the B section, the opening lyrics instantly became even more intriguing.

"【I haven't been to this restaurant for a long time,

Didn't expect the decor had already changed,

In the Corner by that window, one can smell the rose fragrance,

Now that you mention it, I do have some impression.】"

The girl thought to herself: "If it's really as Dad said, and this song is all speaking in reverse..."

She suddenly felt the whole song become even more painful!

There was no sense of letting go at all, only a man's pride putting on a brave front!

The sense of imagery was simply too strong.

She felt as if she could see a man who, after a breakup, would often go to that restaurant which held many memories or had special significance.

But when his ex-partner asked him to meet there again, he was full of lies, desperately pretending, and putting on a brave front in every way!

"Brilliant! Simply brilliant!" Lv Yi was still exclaiming on the side.

He felt the chorus part in the B section was also written very cleverly.

It was like he was forcing a cover-up: "Why would I need to lie, how could I lie, you know me, my memory has always been not that good..."

This pattern of saying one thing while meaning another reminded him of an old little joke on the internet.

"【-Still can't forget her? -

Forgot long ago.

But I haven't even said who she is yet.】"

——Saying one thing while meaning another!

No wonder Luo Mo had to sing in this way, with this kind of emotion.

On Earth, the Lyricist of this song, Shi Rencheng, also had another representative work called 'Don't You Think of Me'.

'Lying' and 'Don't You Think of Me' could be said to be the male and female versions of being stubborn to the end.

For some reason, when Lv Yi listened to this song, he would think of the song 'Sunny Day'.

Back then at the scene of 'King of Love Songs', he felt the writing style was very interesting.

"The song title is clearly called 'Sunny Day', but it's raining throughout the whole song."

At that time, it was clearly pouring with rain.

But whenever I think of you, I always feel it is a sunny day.

At this moment, what made him feel the most pathetic was that there was a line in this song: 【Wish you be a happy bride】.

It was very obvious that the male and female protagonists in the song were meeting this time to tell him that she was getting married.

That was why he was pretending that he had already let go of you, and had already found peace, right.

On Earth, many people said that not a single line in this song was the truth; it was all lies!

This point, in fact, many observant people could discover.

Everyone was proclaiming that the lyrics of this song were amazing, all lies.

At this very moment, there were a full one hundred thousand audience members at the scene; besides Lv Yi, there should have been others who realized this point and understood the artistic conception of the whole song, as well as the sadness within it.

But Lv Yi felt at this moment that this song was written painfully enough precisely because he was thinking: "Perhaps... is there one line that is the truth?"

If, what if this was a line of truth?

The ending part of this song was the truth!

——"【Wish you be a happy bride,

Please forget my heart's secrets】."
