Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry

gone?

"died?"

Yu Dongqing was shocked.

The other people heard Yu Dongqing's words and looked at him one after another.

Yu Dongqing quickly turned on the speakerphone, and Zhang Yang was already crying on the phone.

Yu Dongqing and others quickly comforted him, and Zhang Yang hung up the phone within two minutes. It seemed like something was going on over there.

The three men looked at me and I looked at you. They all felt sad and fell into silence.

"I have met Zhang Yang's father." Liu Yimin suddenly said: "His father came to Yanjing to see Zhang Yang three years ago. He is a cheerful Northeastern man who looks very strong."

"Zhang Yang's father is not very old, right?"

"I heard from Zhang Yang that his father got married early and just retired last year."

"He's in his early 60s, so he's not that old."

"yes."

Xiaodao stood on the side. After all, his relationship with Zhang Yang was not that deep. When he saw the three of them, he reminded them: "It's almost time for us to play."

"Get ready to play," Liu Yimin agreed.

No matter what happens, what needs to be done must be done.

Yu Dongqing was silent. The thing happened too suddenly. He couldn't do much to help from thousands of miles away, but he had to do something about it?

Suddenly he said: "Brother, I want Zhang Yang's father to write a song."

"Um?"

"I wrote a song not long ago. I didn't plan to sing it, but now I want to sing it to Zhang Yang's father and all the fathers in the world." Yu Dongqing said: "I went to the host and said, give us five more minutes."

The other three looked at you and I looked at you, not knowing what to say.

"Okay, I support it." Liu Yimin said first.

"I also support it," Du Hui said.

"But is it possible to have the accompaniment for the new song?" Xiao Dao had some questions.

"It doesn't matter, I'll make it in time." Yu Dongqing borrowed pen and paper and quickly wrote the music composition on the paper. The three people next to him started humming softly while watching.

"I'll play the drums first."

"Starting from here is my bass solo, two syllables." Xiao Dao immediately pointed to the music score and said.

"Okay, I'll cooperate with the keyboard."

Several people quickly divided up the work and had no time to cooperate.

Don’t even know the lyrics.

Five minutes later, the Qingmanglu Band stood in the center of the stage, and they were greeted by overwhelming cheers.

"Love Song 1980" and "Love Song 1990". As the Qingmanglu Band sang classic songs one after another, the audience in the audience sang along.

After these two years, the Qingmanglu Band is no longer a bit green when it debuted at the Zhangjiakou Midi Music Festival the year before last, but looks mature, harmonious and unrestrained.

Some fans also discovered that Qingmanglulehu changed people this time. The fat guy who played the bass turned into a handsome young man with long hair.

"Eh? Qingmanglu Band has changed its bassist? Why didn't I know?" The speaker was a young man, saying to a long-haired girl next to him.

They were a young couple who had just gotten married and were both loyal fans of the Qingmanglu Band. They each took leave from Wuhan and came to Chongqing specifically to watch the Qingmanglu Band's performance.

"I saw their poster a few days ago, and the bass player is obviously the fat guy Zhang Yang." The young man was a little confused.

"Whatever, as long as the lead singer of Qingmanglu Band is my brother-in-law!" the young wife said, waving her arms along with the performance on stage, and singing:

"The vows of the past were like that

Colorful bookmarks in textbooks

How many beautiful poems are depicted

But it’s just a burst of smoke after all

The young man was speechless.

He knew that his wife was not so much a fan of the Qingmangli Band as a fan of the lead singer Yu Dongqing.

In addition to liking to listen to his singing, she also specially collects his videos, photos and various gossips. Not long ago, someone on the Internet was hyping up Yu Dongqing and Hong Kong singer Wu Jingqi's CP. My wife was so angry that she couldn't eat, saying that Wu Jingqi was not worthy of Yu Dongqing at all.

The young man didn't understand this.

He only likes to listen to his songs, no matter who he is with.

Fortunately, Yu Dongqing is very low-key. There is not much information about him on the Internet, and there are only a few rumors about him. Otherwise, what should a young man do if he is really worried that his wife is a nymphomaniac?

Then he wants to fight Yu Dongqing with a knife? !

After the five songs were sung, the audience cheered, but Yu Dongqing and the others did not bow and exit.

How is this going?

Have you finished singing all the songs on the program list?

Do you still want to sing? !

The young man became excited.

Sure enough, I saw Yu Dongqing on the stage carrying a guitar, wiping the sweat from his face and taking a step forward, but he was not smiling at the moment and his voice was heavy.

“I have some sad news for you all. Our band’s bassist Zhang Yang’s father passed away due to a car accident.”

ah.

Many fans of Qingmanglu Band exclaimed.

No wonder the big fat man suddenly didn't show up today. It turned out that something big happened at home.

"Once again, our Qingmanglu band would like to express our deepest condolences to the old man. Have a good journey. At the same time, I have a song for Zhang Yang's father and also for all the fathers in the world."

"The name of the song is "Father", thank you!"

As soon as Yu Dongqing finished speaking, Liu Yimin's drum beat sounded, followed by Xiao Dao's bass solo, with a low voice, like crying.

Yu Dongqing held the guitar and sang slowly while playing:

Always asking for things from you but never saying thank you

It’s not easy to understand you until I grow up

I always pretend to be relaxed every time I leave

Smiling and saying "Go back", he turned around and had tears in his eyes.

I wish I could hold your warm hand like before

"Father" by Chopstick Brothers!

Surprisingly, the entire venue was quiet except for Yu Dongqing's slightly hoarse singing voice.

The young man held his wife's hand tightly and looked at Yu Dongqing on the stage.

Time, please slow down and don’t let you grow old again

I am willing to use me to change your years and stay forever

What can I do for you, a strong father in your life?

Just accept the trivial concern.

After hearing the end, the young man suddenly felt that his eyes were a little moist. Then he looked at his wife next to him, looking at the tissue and wiping his eyes with tears in his eyes.

Just a song.

The whole venue was quiet.

The four bowed and left the stage, and the audience burst into warm applause.

The young man looked at the empty stage and was speechless. He suddenly said in his young wife's ear: "Daughter-in-law, will I go to your house to celebrate the Spring Festival this year?"

Wife is from Chengdu

But he is from Xiangfan, Hubei.

The two went to Huazhong University of Science and Technology and fell in love for seven years as a college and postgraduate student. In the end, they became successful and both stayed in Wuhan to work.

After listening to her husband's words, the wife immediately understood what he meant.

This is the first year of marriage, and the two of them had a few arguments about whose home they would go to during the Spring Festival.

Now when I heard what my husband said, I immediately said, "Let's go to your house. You are an only child. Your parents don't see you during the Chinese New Year. It makes the old couple so lonely. I also have a sister in Chengdu."

"It's better to go to your home. After all, Wuhan is close to my home and it's easy to go back." The young man said softly.

"I went to your house when I said it! You (husband) in the house, don't you listen to your wife?!" When the wife heard this, she became so anxious that she even spoke in Sichuan dialect.

"Okay, okay, go to my house."

The Qingmanglu Band performed at the Midi Music Festival with great success, especially the last song, famous music critic Huang Zhengkai commented on his Weibo.

"Obviously, the song sung by Qing Manglu was rushed. The band's coordination was poor. Yu Dongqing's singing was not as good as the previous songs, and there were even out-of-tune in some places."

“But I still think this is the best song at the Midi Music Festival. Yu Dongqing uses a unique style and lyrics full of real emotions, sincere, deep emotions and catchy melody to tell a story with Chinese characteristics. The story of an old father is the feedback and gratitude of children to their parents for their heavy and deep love."

"Have you, me, and all of us ever said thank you to your father?"
