Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry

When several buddies go fishing together, what they catch is actually not fish, but a kind of peace of mind and happiness.

No, the four of them each sat on a pony, threw the fishing line into the lake and started chatting.

Naturally, it is the most popular variety show on the Internet recently, "Walking and Singing"

"Dongqing, you can do it. I went to Guilin for a lot of shopping and wrote several new songs, especially the song "Brothers Sleeping on the Top Bunk" is absolutely amazing!" Zhang Yang said.

Indeed, after Yu Dongqing came back, he re-arranged and sang the song and published it on music platforms such as NetEase Cloud. It quickly topped the charts and became a popular song recently.

"Yes, the brother who sleeps on the upper bunk. After so many years, I have never seen the guy on my upper bunk again." Du Hui said and sighed.

"Are you on the upper bunk? Aren't you the artistic young man who calls himself a poet?" Zhang Yang said.

Hearing this, the other two laughed.

The four of them had a close relationship at school and often went to each other's dormitories. At that time, it was not like now that you need to have an access control or scan your face to enter the student dormitory. As long as they agree to stay in other people's dormitories overnight, that's fine.

So we all know the roommates in each other’s dormitories.

The erotic young man Zhang Yang mentioned was a thin young man wearing black-rimmed glasses and a face full of acne. Yu Dongqing had also seen him.

He calls himself a campus poet and often reads his poems aloud in the dormitory, vowing to become a Xu Zhimo-like figure.

Unfortunately, this was already the late nineties, and poetry was dying.

The poet has gradually changed from the object of envy of girls to a derogatory term. Some people call him a literary youth, while others call him a young man.

But he still sticks to his hobby and never tires of it.

"That classmate of yours is called Bai Hua, right?" Liu Yimin interrupted.

Du Hui nodded and continued.

"This guy wrote an impromptu poem when the eight of us in the dormitory were having lunch. We called it the best poem he wrote in the four years of college. I still remember one of the lines."

Having said this, Du Hui recited softly:

"After July this year, I won't even have the chance to peek at you."

A little sad.

"What about that guy who became a poet in the end?" Yu Dongqing asked.

"I don't know." Du Hui shook his head: "I haven't contacted him since graduation, and I haven't heard of a poet named Bai Hua."

"Actually, this is good. Writing poems means you can't have enough to eat, and it's even worse than being a musician. The right way is to find your way back as soon as possible and return to secular life." Zhang Yang laughed.

Think about it, right?

"Hey, Dongqing, I heard that the program team of "Walking and Singing" invited you to participate in the second episode?" Liu Yimin changed the topic again.

"Yes, but I refused."

Indeed, just a few days after Yu Dongqing came back, he received a call from Heizi, hoping that he could participate in the second program going to Lijiang.

According to his idea, it is best to have someone from the first episode in the second episode, which will help create a connection between the programs. Yu Dongqing is undoubtedly the best candidate.

However, he declined.

When making a program, one episode is enough.

Heizi had no choice but to invite Zhou Wei to continue to be a guest in the second episode of the show.

Yu Dongqing briefly explained the process.

"Hey, I saw on the video that you have a good relationship with that Zhou Wei." Zhang Yang interrupted.

"Isn't it said that you and Liu Weici don't get along? He is Liu Weici's number one singer, so he didn't get in trouble with you on the show?"

Yu Dongqing chuckled.

"You also know that when doing variety shows, there will be conflicts and frictions among the guests. I paid special attention to this at the time, but Zhou Wei is a very good person, and we are like buddies. By the way, before leaving, he He also asked me to help him write songs."

"Help him write songs? Isn't that just slapping Liu Weici in the face?!" Everyone was surprised.

"I guess he doesn't want to work in Liu Weici's studio anymore." Yu Dongqing explained, and suddenly remembered that he only wanted to do it since he came back, so he forgot about it!

This guy is going to participate in the second episode of "Walking and Singing", will he use it?

Just as he was thinking about it, Yu Dongqing's cell phone rang. When he took it out, he saw that it was Zhou Wei calling. He quickly stood up and walked to a willow tree on the shore to answer the call.

"Zhou Wei, have you gone to Lijiang?"

"If you don't want to come, Heizi will come to me. There's nothing we can do."

"Haha, did you have fun?"

"I just arrived in Lijiang. Hey, where is the song you promised to write for me? I still want to sing it in this show." Zhou Wei said.

"Ha, I've been a little busy lately." Yu Dongqing quickly explained.

busy?

They heard Zhang Yang sneer secretly a few meters away.

You're living like a salty day and still saying you're busy?

But Zhou Wei on the other end of the phone didn't know. Yu Dongqing's original reason for declining Heizi's invitation was that he was too busy with work and thought he was really busy with work.

It’s not easy to say anything, just say it doesn’t matter, and if it doesn’t work, just sing the old songs according to the program plan.

"Okay, no contact."

Zhou Wei was about to hang up the phone.

Yu Dongqing suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

Zhou Wei is a good person and I can understand his thoughts.

Singing a nice new song on the show will undoubtedly increase his popularity.

So he quickly said: "Wait a minute. I wrote a song two days ago, but it's not mature yet. How about you listen to it and see if it's okay?"

Have you written a new song?

On the other end of the phone, Zhou Wei suddenly became energetic.

New song?

Immature?

It doesn’t matter, just listen first!

"Holly, then sing a few words."

Yu Dongqing cleared her throat and hummed into her mobile phone:

You and I are all mortals living in this world

Running around all day long with no time to spare

Since you are not a fairy, you will inevitably have distracting thoughts.

Morality is placed on both sides and the word "profit" is placed in the middle.

How many men turn their anger into beauty

How many forest birds have become flying swallows

"Mortal Song"

It is a song written, composed and sung by Li Zongsheng in that time and space. It is the opening song of the TV series "Blue Sea Loves the Sky".

On the other end of the phone, listening to Yu Dongqing's humming, Zhou Wei was stunned, followed by ecstasy.

Damn it!

Sure enough, it's Dad Qu.

This song is absolutely amazing!

Free and easy, atmospheric, the lyrics are extremely neat and coherent.

Isn't this the song you want?

After Yu Dongqing finished humming, Zhou Wei said excitedly: "Dongqing, please send me the lyrics as soon as possible. I want this song!"

"Okay, but I'm fishing with my buddies right now. Let's talk about it when we get back tonight."

Oops, I spilled the beans.

However, Zhou Wei on the other side of the phone pretended not to react and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I'll wait for you tonight."

After hanging up Zhou Wei's call, Yu Dongqing walked towards the shore, only to find several buddies looking at him.

"What's wrong?"

"Damn it, Dongqing, when did you write such a nice song? We should let some of our buddies sing it," Zhang Yang said.

Liu Yimin and Du Hui also nodded.

"Hey, I promised Zhou Wei a long time ago that I would write a song for him. Isn't this something he urgently needs?" Yu Dongqing explained.

"What a pity." Zhang Yang sighed.

"What's a pity? At worst, we can let Dongqing write another song." Liu Yimin said with a smile.

"Now let's fish, fish." Yu Dongqing said quickly.

But his leisurely life is about to end, because the filming of the bright "Youth" is about to begin.
