Cloud Peak Scenery
Chapter 146 Couldn't Understand, But Deeply Impressed
Today I watch the snow drift in the cold night,
(Cantonese pronunciation approximation)
Carrying a heart that has cooled, drifting far away,
(Cantonese pronunciation approximation)
Chasing in the wind and rain, unable to distinguish the shadows in the mist,
(Cantonese pronunciation approximation)
The sky is wide and the sea vast, will you and I change?
(Cantonese pronunciation approximation)
Lu Xuan's voice was clean and pure.
With a hint of subtle regret.
Su Yao listened, her eyes glazed over, her pupils reflecting Lu Xuan's figure.
Sister Xu and the others were also captivated.
They closed their eyes and smiled, enjoying the music.
Xiao Qun Qun swayed her body along with the music, looking at Lu Xuan and then at the guitar in his hands.
She didn't understand the lyrics, but she was deeply moved!
The melody of this song carried a certain power that made people strong!
Forgive me for being unruly and loving freedom all my life,
Also afraid of falling down one day,
Betraying ideals is something anyone can do,
Why be afraid if one day it's just you and me?
Lu Xuan used Cantonese for the first half.
In the second half, he switched to Mandarin.
Although it lost some of its flavor, it made the understanding of the lyrics more direct.
Su Yao, with her years of musical experience, was stunned after listening to it once.
Only two words remained in her heart.
Classic!
This was another classic work that could be widely circulated!
Lu Xuan continued to sing.
"Why be afraid if one day it's just you and me!"
He chose Cantonese for the final ending.
After he finished singing, no one spoke, because the music hadn't stopped yet.
Lu Xuan was still playing the guitar.
A stirring melody came from the guitar.
Although there were no lyrics, he still played very seriously.
Because this last part was what he really wanted to express.
Only Su Yao in the audience understood.
She moved closer and leaned tightly against Lu Xuan.
She looked at him with unwavering eyes.
Even if this man were to become the enemy of the world, she would always be by his side.
Finally, Lu Xuan finished playing.
He closed his eyes to calm his emotions.
Then he opened his eyes and asked with a smile.
"Okay, what does everyone think of this song, 'Boundless Oceans, Vast Skies'?"
"Great!"
Xu Lan and Aunt Liu were genuinely impressed.
They knew Lu Xuan was talented, but they didn't expect him to be so talented.
He created a classic work so effortlessly.
Xu Lan wasn't a professional, so she didn't know how to comment.
But she could tell.
This song, "Boundless Oceans, Vast Skies," was better than 99% of the pop music out there.
Aunt Liu said directly, "Lu Xuan, you can debut."
Lu Xuan smiled and looked at Su Yao.
"Yao Yao, what do you think?"
Su Yao shook her head. "I think I should open up your skull and see how many composers are hidden inside!"
"How many Xiao Longs do you eat in one meal?"
"How can you be so talented?!"
She had been by Lu Xuan's side all the time.
She had never seen Lu Xuan create anything seriously.
This song, which could be called a classic, was definitely conceived in Lu Xuan's mind.
Or even more outrageous.
He had just come up with it!
If that were the case, then Su Yao really had to call the police.
Good heavens!
Weren't we not allowed to become spirits after the founding of the country?
Lu Xuan was definitely music incarnate, right?
Su Yao seriously suggested, "Lu Bao, why don't you really debut?"
"Who says directors can't debut!"
"Just like boss Li Yaowen said, if you specialize in music, you will definitely achieve great things in the future!"
"Let's talk about that later."
Lu Xuan knew she was joking, but he still took it to heart.
His main job was still making movies.
Only that would never change.
But he couldn't miss out on music either.
The Chinese music scene had become so weak.
He had to do both!
Although he couldn't debut, he could let others debut!
For example, Xiao Long.
Besides being a well-known composer, Xiao Long was also a singer who swept an era.
He slowly withdrew from the music scene after joining Shenghua.
But even when he was gone, his legend still circulated in the music scene.
The songs he wrote were enduring.
If he could bring him into his team.
Then Lu Xuan wouldn't have to worry too much.
The plan in his heart could be realized step by step.
But there was no rush.
It wouldn't be too late to talk to Xiao Long after the Golden Bell Awards.
Their ideals were the same.
They both wanted to see the rise of Chinese music.
So in Lu Xuan's opinion, Xiao Long had no reason to refuse.
Thinking this, Lu Xuan didn't think about it anymore.
Instead, he smiled and looked at Xiao Qun Qun.
He asked her what she thought of "Boundless Oceans, Vast Skies."
"Qun Qun, do you think it's good?"
"Of course it's good!"
Xiao Qun Qun had already become Lu Xuan's adamant fan, raising her little fist high. "Daddy Lu is the best!"
Then she pouted, feeling a little guilty.
"It's a pity I don't understand it."
"Haha!"
Everyone was amused by this little drama queen.
Lu Xuan put the guitar aside, then picked up Xiao Qun Qun.
"Then I'll teach you how to sing it, okay?"
"Is Qun Qun going to learn Cantonese? That's great!"
It could be seen that the little girl really liked this song.
Hearing that Lu Xuan was going to teach her, she immediately acted like she was in class.
Lu Xuan began teaching.
He started with Mandarin, familiarizing her with the meaning of the lyrics.
Then he broke it down word by word, expressing it in Cantonese.
Not only did Xiao Qun Qun learn seriously.
Even the other three adults listened with great interest.
On New Year's Eve, other families were playing mahjong, watching TV, or playing with their phones.
Only here, everyone listened to Lu Xuan's lecture together.
This wonderful experience was deeply imprinted in everyone's heart.
Even many years later, when they mentioned it.
They would still smile and think of this song, "Boundless Oceans, Vast Skies."
Lu Xuan stopped only after Qun Qun couldn't help but fall asleep because she was too sleepy.
"Sister Xu, the room is ready, you can rest here tonight."
He said softly.
"Okay."
Xu Lan took Qun Qun.
Xiao Qun Qun felt her mother's presence and automatically hugged her mother's neck.
Then, led by Aunt Liu, she went upstairs quietly.
In the living room.
Su Yao nestled in Lu Xuan's arms.
Listening to his steady heartbeat, she asked.
"Are you planning to release this song?"
It would be a pity if such a classic song wasn't released.
Lu Xuan thought for a while and nodded. "Release it."
"It's been a while since we've been to Brother Li's place anyway."
"We'll go after the New Year and record the background music for 'Lighting Up the Stars' by the way."
He sang the background music for his own movie.
It seemed to have become the standard for Lu Xuan's movies.
People online were teasing Lu Xuan.
They thought Lu Xuan was too stingy and didn't even hire a singer, singing it himself every time.
In fact, Lu Xuan sang better than most singers.
Especially with Su Yao's cooperation.
So many people still bought it.
The movie soundtracks he had released before were still being listened to by newcomers.
Several of the classic songs.
Had become the main songs of the Xuanlu duo.
Some people had even made playlists.
Specially used to collect the background music from Lu Xuan's movies.
The number of listeners had exceeded 60 million.
So Lu Xuan decided to keep this tradition.
"Once the background music is done, I'll leave everything to the post-production team."
"Then we just have to wait for the movie to be released."
Su Yao nodded obediently. "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Lu Xuan smiled.
He looked at the time and realized it was already twelve o'clock at night.
At this moment, the sky outside the window suddenly lit up.
Bang—Pop—
Brilliant fireworks exploded in the sky, illuminating the entire night sky, and also illuminating the eyes of everyone who was staying up late.
Someone was secretly setting off fireworks.
Lu Xuan and Su Yao looked at each other.
"Want to go out and take a look?"
"Okay!"
The two came outside.
Watching the fireworks all over the sky, they admired them quietly.
Suddenly, Su Yao pointed to the ground in surprise.
"Ah! Lu Bao, look!"
"What's wrong?"
Lu Xuan looked over.
There were two shadows on the ground.
"One is mine! The other is also mine!"
Su Yao leaned against Lu Xuan, her smile even more dazzling than the fireworks in the sky!
