Susan is a famous British female folk singer. She often hangs out in a club outside London with her acoustic guitar in her arms, singing her own adaptations of black blues songs and modern folk songs.

Of course, her favorite is her hometown - English folk music.

Fresh, natural and catchy

Of course, there are fewer and fewer folk songs with a strong country flavor, and more blues and jazz are RAP.

When she got up in the morning, Susan put on her pajamas, made a cup of coffee, sat on the balcony of the villa, and turned on her mobile phone to surf the Internet while drinking coffee.

Of course the main thing is listening to music.

Listen to the songs you like.

She has looked at the main charts, and she usually chooses songs from the new charts.

RAP, RAP again

Looking at the new songs on the list, almost all of them dominated by RAP, Susan couldn't help but sigh.

I like less and less.

Could it be that he is really old? Can't keep up with the times?

She had to search manually, and the keyword was naturally folk songs.

Soon a whole bunch of songs appeared.

They are indeed folk songs, and they are very nice.

It's a pity that they are all old songs, and there are also songs that I have sung in them.

Susan was slightly disappointed.

Suddenly, a song title caught her attention.

Scarborough Fair?

Of course she knew this town.

It is a place with very beautiful scenery, and I often go there.

The scenery there is picturesque, sad and beautiful.

Susan clicked in, and a hoarse male voice sounded.

Are you going to Scarborough Fair

Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme

Wow.

Nice to hear.

When Susan heard this song for the first time, she was deeply attracted.

Authentic English folk songs.

I haven’t heard this smell for a long time.

And these lyrics.

Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme

Susan seemed to see the lush pastoral scenery of the English countryside.

It's just that the singer's voice doesn't seem to have an authentic London accent.

After the song was finished, Susan hurriedly looked at the singer's profile and was immediately shocked.

Turns out to be Chinese!

The lyrics, music and arrangement are all Chinese!

How could a man from a distant eastern country write such an authentic English-style ballad? !

This, what kind of man is this?

Susan quickly searched the Internet and quickly found information about this man named Yu Dongqing.

Turns out to be a Chinese singer and musician!

The more I read the songs he wrote, the more surprised I become.

Although she couldn't understand the Chinese lyrics, she could understand the music score.

Folk, pop, rock, even rap!

my Lord.

Susan was stunned.

When she woke up, she suddenly felt the urge to contact the singer. She called her manager, explained the situation and asked her to help.

"Ok, I'll find a way to contact the Chinese Musicians Association."

Of course, this was not an easy task. It was not until noon that Susan got the contact information about Yu Dongqing.

Susan calmed down, wondering if the other party understood English?

Looking for a translator?

But she couldn't wait any longer, so she picked up her phone and dialed the number.

At this time, Yu Dongqing had already got off the plane and arrived in Paris, staying at the Renaissance Arc de Triomphe Hotel, a five-star hotel located in the center of Paris, adjacent to the Champs Elysées.

Naturally, you can’t treat yourself badly when you go out to play.

There were still two rooms. After packing their things and resting for a while, the three of them were ready to go out to play. At this time, Yu Dongqing's cell phone rang, and it was an unfamiliar number.

It seems that the number of digits is not domestic, but foreign?

It seems like you don’t know any foreign friends, right?

But Yu Dongqing still answered the call.

"Hello, are you Mr. Yu Dongqing?" A woman's voice spoke English.

"Yes? Which one?" Yu Dongqing answered in English.

"Ha, Mr. Yu, if you know English, it will be much easier." The other party's tone became cheerful. I introduced myself as British singer Susan. I really like the song "Scarborough Fair" you sang. I want to cover it. Can I buy the copyright? "

Oh. Someone wants to cover it so soon?

But think about it, how come no one wants such a classic song?

Yu Dongqing replied: "I can cover it, but I won't sell the copyright of the song."

"Then can I do a second arrangement?"

"Can."

"OK, can my agent talk to you in detail about the contract?"

"Now?"

"Yes, now."

"But I am traveling abroad." Yu Dongqing was a little embarrassed.

How about asking Yang Liu to talk to her?

Yu Dongqing was about to speak, but heard the other party ask again: "I'm sorry, Mr. Yu, where are you traveling? Can you tell me?"

"I'm in Paris now."

"Ah, Paris? I thought you went to the United States. Can you tell you the specific address of the hotel in Paris? I'll fly over right away!"

So urgent?

Yu Dongqing had no choice but to agree.

"Brother-in-law, who are you calling?" Meimei came from the next room to ask Yu Dongqing to go downstairs for dinner. When she heard Yu Dongqing mumbling in English, she couldn't help but ask.

"It's a British singer named Susan. She wanted to cover the song "Scarborough Fair" and came all the way from London to find me."

Yu Dongqing told the truth.

"Susan?! That's a British national treasure folk singer." Meiliang looked surprised.

"Really? Pretty awesome?"

Coming to this time and space, Yu Dongqing didn't pay much attention to foreign singers.

"Yes, there are countless fans in the UK, Europe and the United States. However, brother-in-law, I think you are comparable to her!" Meiliang looked proud.

"Come on, stop looking up to your brother-in-law. Let's go down and eat first. Where's Tongtong?"

"next door."

At almost four o'clock in the afternoon, Yu Dongqing received a call from Susan's agent, saying that he had arrived in Paris and would be at the hotel soon.

Yu Dongqing invited her to have afternoon tea.

In the hotel restaurant, Yu Dongqing met this British national treasure female singer.

Susan Yu Dongqing suddenly remembered Aunt Susan from that time and space.

Of course, this Susan is not that Susan. In the UK, there are thousands of girls named Susan, just like in China, there are thousands and thousands of them.

But the two people are very similar in body shape, like Han Hong.

The two parties had a warm and friendly conversation, discussed their respective views on music, and verbally agreed to transfer the song "Scarborough Fair". The specific contract had to be signed with the studio.

Of course, Susan came all the way from London to Paris for more than just this song.

"Mr. Yu, I listened to the songs you wrote, and I am very interested in some of them. I want to translate them into English and sing them, or rewrite the lyrics?"

"Okay." Yu Dongqing said readily: "You can discuss the details with my agent, Ms. Yang Liu."

Both parties were delighted.

Afterwards, Yu Dongqing called Yang Liu again to explain the matter in detail and let her handle it.

Oh my God

I traveled to England, actually wrote a British song, and even negotiated a business deal?

Yang Liu was so impressed that he fell to the ground.

After Susan left, Yu Dongqing and the others continued their journey in Paris.

Louvre Museum, Arc de Triomphe, Champs Elysées.

Meimei was even happier than Yu Dongqing when she was shopping, especially on the Champs Elysées, which was a shopping paradise for girls. There were all kinds of LV stores and perfume shops.

After running for a day, when Meimei returned home, she and Yu Tongtong both carried large and small bags.

Meili is a shopaholic.

Fortunately, Yu Tongtong is still young and is not interested in bags, perfumes, etc. Of course, she has to buy a few brand shoes, hats and clothes. Yu Dongqing is very helpless.

Fortunately, we are not short of money.

While Yu Dongqing and the others were enjoying shopping in Paris, in Venice, Italy, director Christian had trouble with a submitted micro-film.
