"Let's swing the oars~~
The boat pushes away the waves~~
The beautiful white pagoda is reflected on the sea~~
Surrounded by green trees and red walls~~
The boat floats gently in the water~~
A cool wind blew in my face~~"
When the song "Let's Swing the Oars" appeared in Xu Chuan's ears, goosebumps rose on his body.
The hairs on his hair stood on end as an electric current rose up from the soles of his feet, rushed straight to his brain, and finally converged into his eyes, making Xu Chuan's eyes sore.
Other pop songs brought from the earth, whether sung by oneself or sung to others, are somewhat different from the original versions. Xu Chuan would often lament, but that was all.
There is only this song, there is no original version or not. As long as you hear children singing it, it is childhood.
How should I introduce this song?
"Let's Swing the Oars" was written by Mr. Qiao Yu and composed by Mr. Liu Chi.
The two old gentlemen also collaborated on another well-known piece called "My Motherland", which is the song about "A big river has wide waves".
It is worth mentioning that Mr. Qiao Yu is also the lyricist of "Unforgettable Tonight".
Not only that, but there are also some songs that everyone must be familiar with.
For example, "Young Hero Little Nezha".
That's right, it's the one "It's him, it's him, it's him, our friend Xiao Nezha."
There is also the theme song of the same name from "The Big Windmill", "The big windmill is whirring and turning, the scenery here is so beautiful."
Children before 1995 must have heard it, but those after 1995 have no idea.
It can be said that this song is a classic collaboration between two giants in the music industry.
It is a classic that can stand the test of time.
The live broadcast is still going on, and there is already relevant news on the Internet. The title of the news is [61 Party, Xu Chuan once again created a new children's song, Lin Mengying sang with 56 children]
This news is a bit hot, but not much.
Lin Mengying singing children's songs is no longer news. The first time it was strange, the second time it was new, and the third time everyone was used to it, so on the Internet, everyone just knew about it and it didn't cause any sensation.
Moreover, in the eyes of ordinary viewers of Blue Star, this song has nothing to do with it, it just sounds good. Not only ordinary viewers, but also the program team just think it is good.
But in the music industry, there is an old man who had great mood swings after hearing this song.
The live broadcast ended, and Xu Chuan was having supper with Lin Mengying and Fu Wanwan.
Xu Chuan's phone rang.
"What? A symposium?" Xu Chuan was a little confused when he heard the voice on the phone.
"Yes, it will be tomorrow afternoon. The address will be sent to your mobile phone later. You will arrive on time at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon."
After saying that, without waiting for Xu Chuan's reply, the other party hung up the phone without giving Xu Chuan a chance to refuse.
Xu Chuan's expression was still a little confused when he listened to the blind tone coming from the phone.
"What's wrong? Who's calling? What symposium are you attending?" Lin Mengying asked Xu Chuan vaguely while picking up a mutton skewer.
"The chief director of the 1961 Gala called and said that several seniors wanted to talk to me about their creative experiences."
"Old senior, who is it?" Fu Wanwan asked curiously.
"I didn't say who it was, but Teacher Shen Huajin asked him to find me."
"Shen Huajin? The one who wrote "Flowers in the Spring Breeze". It seems that he also wrote the theme songs of the four famous classics, right?" Lin Mengying said in surprise when she heard this.
"Yes." Xu Chuan nodded.
Shen Huajin is 73 this year. How to describe him? He is like a collection of Yan Su, Xu Jingqing, Gu Jianfen, Wang Liping and Zhao Jiping on earth.
Even this is not enough.
Because "Flowers in the Spring Breeze" has about the same status in Blue Star as "Let's Swing the Oars" on Earth.
Just tell me what kind of boss this old man is, right?
"It's a good thing. Even though they are retired at old age and don't go out for activities now, it would be good for you to have more contact with them. Go ahead and go." Lin Mengying said quickly.
"I know, I'm not one of those stupid young people. The problem now is that I don't know what to say when I see him in the past." Xu Chuan shook his head.
"Speaking of the old man, this, your that...that..." Lin Mengying suddenly hesitated.
"What's wrong?" Xu Chuan looked at her strangely.
"It's just...it's just..." Lin Mengying's face turned red as she spoke.
"Grandpa Lin asked Mengying to take you to play at home." Fu Wanwan saw that Lin Mengying couldn't say anything for a long time, so she helped her.
When Xu Chuan heard this, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Well, today I am in the old man's nest, so many old people want to see me.
The key is that each one is better than the other.
How can I, a little novice, bear this?
Thinking of this, Xu Chuan asked weakly: "Well, what about that? I'd like to ask, will your dozen brothers go?"
"Emmm..." Lin Mengying faced this question and didn't know how to answer.
Fu Wanwan next to her burst out laughing when she heard this: "Pfft, haha, goose goose goose goose, I'll definitely go. I've wanted to see you for a long time. Ever since you guys started speculating on CP, I've been almost obsessed with them. So annoying."
"My brother is very talkative. Didn't I tell you that they are very nice to me?" Lin Mengying quickly added.
Xu Chuan couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth when he listened to Fu Wanwan's iconic "goose laugh" and Lin Mengying's apology.
Sister, I don’t dare to go just because I know they are good to you.
There are so many girls in the house, can I still come out alive if I go there?
Thinking of this, Xu Chuan coughed and said, "Ahem, what about that, I'm not ready yet."
"I'm not ready either." Lin Mengying said coyly.
Fu Wanwan watched this from the side and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
She knew that Lin Mengying and Xu Chuan were in love, and she knew it immediately.
She even knew when the two of them had an in-depth communication for the first time.
On both sides of Lin Mengying's parents, the only cousin was a girl, and there were certain things she could only say to Fu Wanwan.
"Since you're not ready yet, let's do it later. I'll do more mental construction." Xu Chuan said.
"Okay." Lin Mengying nodded. In fact, she was more nervous than Xu Chuan.
The conversation on this topic was almost over, and several people changed the subject again.
In the evening, Lin Mengying followed Fu Wanwan. Her father told Fu Wanwan that he must take Lin Mengying home.
Originally, Lin Mengying and Fu Wanwan had agreed that she would go with Xu Chuan at night, but when asked, she said she went to sleep with Fu Wanwan.
As a result, when Lin Mengying was singing "Let's Swing the Oars" with the children during the live broadcast, the program team gave Xu Chuan several shots.
He was caught on the spot by Father Lin who was watching the live broadcast.
It's okay now. Mr. Lin called Lin Mengying and told her to take Xu Chuan back to play.
Lin Mengying's father called Fu Wanwan and told Fu Wanwan to take Lin Mengying home.
This is the difference between dad and grandpa.
He will not be able to accept the reality that his daughter has a boyfriend for a while. Although Lin Mengying refuses to admit it at home, her family members have already decided whether she admits it or not.
Because Lin Mengying is very abnormal.
This caused Lin's father not to see Xu Chuan, but he was annoyed when he saw Xu Chuan, quite annoying.
This has nothing to do with whether Xu Chuanyou is excellent or not. If someone better comes, Father Lin will feel the same way.
On the other hand, Lin's mother thinks Xu Chuan is good. His family background is simple and he is talented. He is a good son-in-law.
Of course, Xu Chuan didn't know this.
He is now lying in the hotel thinking about tomorrow afternoon's symposium.
There was nothing to say all night. In the morning of the next day, Xu Chuan first dealt with some matters related to the program team and the crew, and in the afternoon, he was picked up by the program team and headed to his destination.
There was already a young man waiting for him at the door. As soon as he saw Xu Chuan, the staff member immediately handed over a work permit with a smile and said: "Teacher Xu, this is your participation certificate."
Participation certificate?
So formal?
Xu Chuan took a look at the participation ticket and his expression immediately became exciting.
Because the participation card says [Expert symposium on the high-quality development of music education in primary and secondary schools across the country]
"When did this start?" Xu Chuan asked.
"It started yesterday morning and ended at 5 o'clock today." The staff explained with a smile.
"Okay, I understand, thank you." Xu Chuan nodded after hearing this.
From this point of view, he was called here temporarily. Maybe the director who called him didn't know what he was calling.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Chuan entered the venue under the guidance of this staff member and sat down on a seat in the last row.
Looking around, there were at least two hundred people in the venue.
The reporter next to me was quarrelsome.
Since Xu Chuan was sitting in the back row, all he could see was the back of his head. Only at 2 o'clock, Xu Chuan's face could be seen from the row on the rostrum when he came in.
But the problem is, he doesn't recognize those on the podium.
But he soon got to know each other.
Because when a staff member brought tea, he also brought Xu Chuan a thick copy of meeting materials.
After reading it, Xu Chuan realized that the standards of the meeting were frighteningly high.
For such a high-level meeting, it was definitely not Shen Huajin's decision to issue a participation certificate to himself.
When he turned around, he found that the reporter's camera was scanning over him. For a moment, Xu Chuan thought of many things.
The biggest possibility is that Shen Huajin mentioned it, and the superiors agreed.
Maybe I can still see myself in the news that is sent out.
Soon, the meeting started on time.
A few hours passed in a hurry, and Xu Chuan had already recorded a lot of things in the notebook given to him by the staff.
The meeting ended with a round of applause.
The people on the rostrum were the first to leave, and the people below also began to leave, and they were communicating in the venue.
Xu Chuan was at a loss as he packed his things and looked at the people inside.
Anyone who is not familiar with them can see them. Some of them are regulars at major evening parties. People usually call them singers, and there are also some powerful teachers in the field of musical instruments.
"Xiao Xu, come on, come here." Just when Xu Chuan was a little confused, a gray-haired old man waved to Xu Chuan.
When Xu Chuan heard this, he immediately stood up and walked over there. The one who waved to him was Shen Huajin.
When he arrived next to Shen Huajin, Xu Chuan hurriedly said hello: "Hello, Teacher Shen."
Then he said hello to the people who were gathered with Shen Huajin. Regardless of whether he knew them or not, the teacher was right to call them first.
Shen Huajin obviously really liked Xu Chuan. He pulled Xu Chuan and introduced him to everyone: "This young man's name is Xu Chuan. He is in his twenties this year... in his twenties."
"The virtual age is 25." Xu Chuan said quickly.
"Yes, yes, he is twenty-five years old, so young. The one who recently sold 30 million albums is him." Shen Huajin said while patting Xu Chuan on the shoulder.
As soon as these words came out, the teachers in front of them reacted.
"Oh, it's you, young man, oh, that's amazing. I've heard of your name a long time ago. My grandson and grandson like you very much. I didn't expect to see you here today. You can sign your autograph for me later." The old lady said kindly to Xu Chuan.
Xu Chuan quickly bowed his back and said he didn't dare.
Xu Chuan also knows this old lady, let’s put it this way, Blue Star Li Guyi, and I can see her every Spring Festival Gala.
"Young man, I listened to your "Jiangnan", including the "Let's Swing the Oars" from last night's party. I also watched the live broadcast with Teacher Shen yesterday.
At that time, I was thinking about listening to other songs you wrote, but I really don’t know how to buy your new album. If you have time, give me a copy some other time. "Another old man said.
Xu Chuan heard this and said quickly: "Yes, yes, I happened to have a few in my bag."
After saying that, Xu Chuan rummaged through the bag he carried with him.
He flipped through five albums and handed them to the five people in front of him.
Xu Chuan prepared this after thinking about it yesterday. He brought more than 20 of them, and they are indeed in use now.
Shen Huajin took Xu Chuan's album and looked at it, and said with a smile: "'Give Me Time for a Song', this title is a good one, I really got to know you in the time of a song."
"You have to give me one more, and you'd better sign it, otherwise I won't be able to tell you the difference when I go back." The old lady said with a smile.
"Then ours also needs to be signed." As soon as the old lady finished speaking, the old man who just asked Xu Chuan for the album immediately laughed. After speaking, he handed the album to Xu Chuan.
Xu Chuan quickly took out the pen from his bag and signed the album one by one.
Just after signing, a nice female voice came: "Teacher Shen, what good things are you sharing?"
Xu Chuan turned around and looked, okay, Su Chenwei, Xu Chuan thought she was Blue Star Tan Jing.
"Xu Chuan, right? Hello, I've heard your song, it's great."
"Hello, Teacher Su, thank you very much." Xu Chuan quickly bowed to say hello.
Should he say it or not, Xu Chuan finally felt what it meant to be in another circle.
This is completely different from the pop music industry and even the entertainment industry.
These people are all organized.
The circles are two different things, and the attitudes of these people towards themselves are also two different styles from those in the entertainment industry.
"Is there any more? Give me a signed album." Su Chenwei seemed familiar with her, and she smiled and was not polite to Xu Chuan.
"Yes, yes, yes." After Xu Chuan finished speaking, he took out an album from his bag, signed it, and presented it with both hands.
The arrival of Su Chenwei made the place more lively. People like to watch the excitement.
As a result, more and more people came to Xuchuan.
Twenty albums, Xu Chuan originally thought there were a lot.
It's simply not enough now.
Shen Huajin introduced Xu Chuan in various ways, and the one he said the most was "That's the young man who sold 30 million albums."
As soon as this sentence was uttered, everyone immediately realized who Xu Chuan was, because 30 million copies was really an exaggeration, and basically everyone in the music industry had heard of it.
There are people in the pop music circle who are envious and envious.
People here just take it as fun and news.
That is to say, under Shen Huajin's introduction, a bunch of contact information appeared on Xu Chuan's mobile phone, all belonging to these big guys.
Under the commotion, everyone took some photos together and then dispersed.
And Xu Chuan finally had the opportunity to chat with Shen Huajin in a reception room.
"I listened to your piece "When We Swing the Oars". It's quite good. Don't waste your talent in this area. Write as much as you can.
The money is indeed not as much as what you make from your album. But sometimes, we can't keep looking at money, right? "
"What you said is true, I'll try my best." Xu Chuan nodded.
"Originally, I planned to find time to have a chat with you and discuss creative ideas. However, I heard that you have been busy with variety shows and new dramas recently, so I don't think you have much time to chat with me, an old man.
It just so happens that we are having this meeting, and the leader also thinks that your participation will be helpful to the meeting. I thought it would be better to take this opportunity to meet first, and we will talk more when you are free. "
"Your words really offend me."
"To be honest, I'm actually very curious about what ideas you based on when you created it. I actually asked a young man to download your album yesterday and buy it for me, and I listened to it all.
I found that your music style spans a wide range, and you can compose and write lyrics. In recent years, there are some who are good at writing pop music, and there are also some who are good at writing folk songs.
Even though there are no people who can write both pop music and folk songs well, you are still the first. "
"Let's Swing the Oars" is a good children's song, but children's songs or "nursery rhymes" used to be classified as folk songs.
Therefore, Shen Huajin's statement that Xu Chuan could write folk songs was not a slip of the tongue.
"I'm not afraid of your jokes. I don't have any ideas. I mainly rely on humming when writing songs now." Xu Chuan said with a smile.
"What are you afraid of with hum? Many people rely on hum to write songs. However, I suggest you study music systematically. Inspiration and talent are very important.
But adding systematic theoretical knowledge will make you better and longer. "Shen Huajin said quite sincerely.
"I'm already learning from the teacher."
"That's good, that's good." Shen Huajin didn't know what he thought of, but he breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Xu Chuan's words.
Seeing him like this, Xu Chuan probably knew what he was thinking. He was afraid that he had achieved such good results at such a young age and wasted his talent by not making progress.
It is estimated that in Shen Huajin's more than 70 years, he has seen some geniuses and also seen geniuses disappearing from the crowd.
"I also gave you my phone number. If you have any questions about music, please feel free to contact me. Also, you can come to my house another day. I have accumulated some experience over the past few decades and have recorded it all.
I originally wanted to publish a book, but then I was afraid of making people laugh. Over the years, I have been thinking about giving these things to young people. After all, young people are the future.
But after thinking about it, I don’t know which young person I should give it to. Can the notes of an old man like me still keep up with the times? Will today’s young people want it?
Now that I see you, I know that these notes have a place, and I hope they can be of some help to you. "Shen Huajin continued.
As soon as these words came out, Xu Chuan's expression paused, and after a while he solemnly nodded and said: "Okay."
Hearing this good word, Shen Huajin laughed happily.
Shen Huajin knew that Xu Chuan was a very good talker. He could already see this when so many people surrounded him at the venue.
But now Xu Chuan didn't say anything fancy, but said the word "good", which proved that his attitude was sincere enough.
Decades of experience are naturally regarded as treasures.
But Shen Huajin also knows that the things he regards as treasures may not really be wanted by young people in this era.
Your own things need to be given to young people who understand them in order to achieve their due value.
To be honest, Shen Huajin was not familiar with Xu Chuan. He only really got to know Xu Chuan after hearing the song "When We Swing the Oars" yesterday.
But it was through the song "Let's Swing the Oars" that made Shen Huajin feel that Xu Chuan would definitely understand his notes.
Because he felt the flavor of "a close friend" from the lyrics and music of this song.
Xu Chuan didn't know what the old man was thinking.
If he knew what Shen Huajin was thinking, he would be extremely impressed.
The three masters of the two worlds seemed to have "communicated" across time and space at this moment.
What a romantic thing.
Thanks [for the tip].
That's all for today. I have a little pain in my wrist recently. I ran out for acupuncture. I don't know if it will feel better.
