Chapter 6 6, "City Capital" and the stories there
People who really love music have "restless" blood flowing in their bones. The hardships and twists and turns of life may wear away some things, but once they stand on the stage, the "restless" blood in their bodies will burn and transform For a jumping note.

Shen Qiushan belongs to this kind of person. He entered the industry as a music producer. His biggest dream was to make excellent music works and spread them to the world. Unfortunately, he caught up with the era of rampant piracy soon after entering the industry. , a large number of record companies went bankrupt, and he, who was not very famous, naturally became a "laid-off" person. After that, he changed his career to become a director, and this mess lasted for more than [-] years.

Just now, Shen Qiushan, who was sitting under the stage, saw the dedication and seriousness of his second brother Shen Qiuhai to music, and also saw the enthusiasm and expectation of his daughter Shen Jiani for music. His "restless" blood was naturally activated easily.

"Brother, let's play "Nianhua", this is my favorite work." Shen Qiuhai suggested with a smile, "Nianhua" is Shen Qiushan's early work, and it is also the most famous song among his many music works.

"I won't sing "Nian Hua" today. I wrote a song because I was really bored in it. It just so happens that your store name is in the lyrics, so I'll sing it. It's also a celebration for the opening of your new store." Shen Qiushan Responds with a chuckle.

"Really? Then I have to listen carefully, you haven't written a song for several years!" Shen Qiuhai showed a surprised smile on his face.

"The song written by big brother must be good!" Shen Qiushui was also full of anticipation.

"Nini, isn't your dad a director? He can even write songs?" Chen Xiaoduo was a little surprised.

"Huh~! You still said you were my dad's fan, but you didn't even know he was a music producer before!!" Shen Jiani gave Chen Xiaoduo a "false fan".

on the stage.

Shen Qiushan picked up the acoustic guitar stuck under the big screen, then pulled up a high chair and sat on it...

"A piece of "City Capital" for everyone."

When he saw the plaque of "Tavern", this song appeared in Shen Qiushan's mind. What's more, he was surprised to find that this song had many coincidences with his own experience in his inherited memory. So much so that the urge to sing this song was born deep in his heart.

Gently pluck the strings with your fingers, and the simple melody sounds...

【It's not just the wine last night that made me cry】

【It's not just your tenderness that makes me reluctant to part】

【How long will the rest of the road go, you hold my hand】

【What makes me feel embarrassed is the freedom to struggle】

……

Section A of the main song was completed in one go, and Shen Qiushan amazed everyone present as soon as he opened his voice. Since he has not been making music for many years, he has long since abandoned the habit of protecting his voice, but it made him "hone" by accident The currently popular "smoky voice" has great limitations in singing, but it is very suitable for two types of works, slow-paced folk songs and certain rocks that require "roaring".

"City Capital" belongs to the former, sung by Shen Qiushan's own bass effect and voice full of vicissitudes, which immediately increases the "heavy feeling" of this song, which is easier to move people's hearts, and allows the audience to quickly enter the song's core In the artistic conception.

After a short interval, the singing continued...

[Parting is always in September, memories are the sorrow of missing]

[Late autumn green weeping willow kisses my forehead]

【In that rainy little town】

【I never forget you】

【Chengdu, the only thing I can't take away... is you】

Section B of the verse ends, perfectly completing the preparatory work before the chorus. The most important thing is that almost every sentence of this simple and meticulous lyrics can penetrate the softest part of the heart. What is even more terrifying is , the lyrics of this paragraph are still a sentence-by-sentence relationship.

When the last sentence "Chengdu, the only thing I can't take away... is you!" comes, all powerful psychological defenses may be disintegrated in an instant. It is like the "plum blossom needle" commonly seen in martial arts novels, which can quickly penetrate Your heart, but there is no trace.

However, when you are still reminiscing about who you can't take away, the chorus hits just right...

【Walk with me on the streets of the city~ oh~】

【Don't stay until all the lights go out】

【You will hold my sleeve】

【I will put my hand in my trouser pocket】

[Go to the end of Yulin Road, sit at the door of the tavern...]

The chorus part is not as violent as imagined, but it is very comfortable to listen to, and you can even clearly outline that wonderful picture in your mind.

And in the chorus part, the "tavern" that Shen Qiushan mentioned finally appeared, but no one noticed it. Obviously, this song is not about it, but about the hazy, but still Some sentimental stories.

"It's so nice to hear, so good to hear that I want to cry."

"It's kind of warm, but also kind of sentimental, and my heart is going to melt."

"Yeah, it's really awesome, and this song is still original, super powerful."

"I'm curious, who is this person? He can sing better than the professional Shen Qiuhai!"

"..."

The guests in the tavern whispered to each other, obviously approving of Shen Qiushan's "City Capital".

Compared to their reactions, the reactions of the Shen family were even more "exaggerated". The eyes of the two beauties, Shen Qiushui and Shen Jiani, one big and one small, were already filled with tears, and the tears would slide down their cheeks from time to time...

In the eyes of the guests, what Shen Qiushan performed was just a nice song. However, the Shen family who knew the "insider situation" knew that Shen Qiushan was using this song to remember a person, a woman he loved most in his life , Shen Qiuhai, Shen Qiushui, and Shen Qiuming's sister-in-law, Shen Jiani's mother, Shen Qiushan's wife, Qin Yawen.

22 years ago, 20-year-old Shen Qiushan went to Chengdu alone to participate in a national singing competition. As a result, he did not get the desired results. Instead, he fell in love with a female singer who also participated in the competition at first sight. After that, the two quickly developed into a Lover relationship.

The girl is a native of Chengdu, so Shen Qiushan postponed his return to Beijing, stayed in Chengdu temporarily, and even found a job as a resident singer in a bar. The two of them also spent the best time in Chengdu...

But the following plot is like a third-rate novel. Three months later, the girl became pregnant, and the two who were in a passionate relationship decided to get married, but they were firmly opposed by the girl's parents, who even put her under house arrest. There are three main reasons why the woman's parents are so determined. First, Shen Qiushan is from Yanjing and is too far away from the city. Second, Shen Qiushan has no serious job and cannot support his family. Third, The two are too young to be of legal marriage age.

Therefore, Shen Qiushan came to the door several times to ask for marriage, but was thrown out. In the end, the girl decided to elope with Shen Qiushan.

So, on a rainy night, the girl sneaked out of the house and left the city with Shen Qiushan, but due to various reasons, this parting became the farewell between the girl and her family, and she never went back...

This girl is naturally Shen Qiushan's late wife Qin Yawen, and at this moment, Shen Qiushan sang the song "City Capital" on the stage, which inevitably reminds people of this sad past.
