Chapter 65 The Reunion After Many Years

The topic of the college entrance examination this year is quite hot. In addition to candidates, school rankings, regional competitions and professional reviews, many people think that the time of the college entrance examination should be changed.

This era coincides with a period of global temperature rise, and the warming trend is becoming more and more obvious.

Every year in early July, the national college entrance examination is postponed to the middle of the special year. It has been going on for many years, and Chinese people have long been used to it.

Since the beginning of summer is very early this year, and July has not yet entered, the heat is already unbearable.

The northern land is scorched by the sun, and the southern coast is also under the attack of waves of tropical storms. Seeing that the college entrance examination is approaching, many people have the idea of ​​advancing the time of the college entrance examination by one month.

Moreover, the newspaper news has already begun to release rumors, proving that this matter is not groundless.

Jin Shang is very convinced that there will be no change this year, and there is little possibility of changes in the next three to five years.Such an important matter cannot be decided casually.

It is estimated that various aspects of research will be required, such as the differences between the east, west, north, south, and regions, and the trend of temperature changes over the years. After comprehensive consideration, the final decision will be made seven or eight years later.

There are also some topics that people like to talk about, that is, the competition for high-quality students in major universities has also begun. In recent years, it is not uncommon for "top students in the college entrance examination" to be the platform of their alma mater.

For this kind of thing, Jin Shang has appeared on the scene before, in the name of a young genius, to show the advantages of Beijing Normal University to candidates all over the world.

It is said that the effect is not bad. It is easy to find a 20-year-old "National Scholar in the College Entrance Examination". Twelve and thirteen-year-old college students do not appear every year, and it has indeed attracted the attention of many people.

In the competition for "No. [-] Scholar", "No. [-]", and "Top Flower", Lu Liao, an outlier, is occasionally mentioned as a negative example.

Lv Liao himself and his operation team seem to be happy to use this enthusiasm to build momentum, and the novels and collections of essays released are very popular, which proves that this kind of promotional strategy that benefits and costs nothing is very effective.

"If you don't even go to the ready-made popularity, then what's the use of the Internet?" 』

The previous publicity strategy was either ineffective or too conservative. The leaders of the telecommunications department have set the tone. The portal website should not be too aggressive for the time being. It is always okay to promote Jin Shang himself, right?
As for the fact that the person happens to be the boss of a website, it is just a coincidence, so don't over-interpret it.

Jin Shang really doesn't have the time and energy to go on stage in person, be a singing and dancing star, or mix in the literary and artistic circles.However, it is much easier to use Lu Liao, a peer of the same age, to stir up a topic of hype.

Beijin Nanlu, what a gimmick!In the past, Jin Shang didn't know, and didn't have the need to respond.Without a slap in the face, Lu Liao and the people who watched the excitement naturally couldn't continue the conversation.

If Jin Shang reveals the meaning of "confrontation", there will naturally be good people who will make this incident known to everyone.

Comparing talents with such young people, Jin Shang himself may be a bit vain to go into battle shirtless, but with the help of "Golden Finger", he has a great chance of winning.

Jin Shang opened a row of closets in the bedroom, which were full of file folders, all of which were precious memories from previous lives that Jin Shang had written down in the past few years, fearing he would forget them.

"The quintessence of nearly a thousand years of culture, still afraid of you, a rebellious youth who dropped out of school? 』

After sorting out his thoughts, Jin Shang lay down contentedly and fell asleep.

……

Early the next morning, Jin Shang, who was awakened by the chirping birds outside the window, saw that the sun had already risen a little high, and if he didn't go for a morning run earlier, it would be a little late.

Jin Shang, who rarely slept late, saw that breakfast was ready and placed on the dining table, so he knew that Lao Jin had gone out.

Putting on a sports vest and shorts, I came to a nearby park, greeted many kind-hearted old men and women, and jogged. After half an hour, I came home sweating profusely, and saw a tall figure hovering at the door , seems to have been knocking on the door for a long time, but there is no response, and he is sulking.

"Who are you? Wait...Mei Fengchun?"

"Oh, you are my little cousin, right? Long time no see, you are much stronger than before..."

The outspoken girl frowned slightly, as if she was a little surprised by Jin Shang's dusty appearance,

"It stinks of sweat, why did you go?"

"Run! I didn't expect you to come so early. I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

Jin Shang took out the key to open the door and welcomed Mei Fengchun into the living room.

After looking at the surrounding furnishings, Mei Fengchun commented familiarly:
"It's no different from before. After so many years, it's still the same."

"People are still those people, how can there be any changes!"

Kim Sang casually responded,

"You sit down first, I'll wash up, and then we'll discuss business."

"Oh, go get busy."

He waved his hands, leaned carelessly on the sofa, and turned on the TV to watch. Mei Fengchun didn't treat herself as an outsider, and took care of herself very skillfully.

Jin Shang didn't care either, walked into the bathroom, took a shower, brushed his teeth and washed his face, changed into casual clothes, and came out after nearly half an hour.

After clearing his body of fatigue, Jin Shang was about to eat breakfast when he saw that the snacks and snacks on the table in the dining room were still steaming.

At this time, Mei Fengchun's words came from the living room.

"I reckon you haven't eaten yet, so I warmed it up and borrowed the kitchen, is it okay?"

"Thank you!"

Compared with ten years ago, the kitchen at home has always been the same except for a few old kitchen utensils.

At that time, Mei Fengchun, who was missing a few front teeth and had a leaky speech, pretended to be a housewife and was addicted to alcohol. He wanted to cook and eat by himself, and almost burned the kitchen down.

In view of this, Jin Shang was not optimistic about Mei Fengchun's culinary talent, and it was a relief that there was no trouble this time.

"Why, are you still worried about my ability? Don't worry, I can eat..."

Jin Shang, who was dubious, tasted a few mouthfuls, and he didn't seem to find any problems, so he was relieved.

Ten minutes later, Jin Shang, who had finished eating and drinking and cleaned up the tableware, walked into the living room. Seeing this, Mei Fengchun also turned off the TV.

The two sat opposite each other on both sides of the coffee table and looked at each other for a moment, but it was Mei Fengchun who couldn't help but laugh first.

"What kind of genius cousin, it doesn't look like anything special. It just grows taller and stronger than before."

Jin Shang himself is about 1.7 meters tall, and there is not much room for growth in the future. It is hard to say whether he can reach 1.8 meters.

This height may not be special among teenagers 20 years later, but now it seems a bit out of the ordinary.

Mei Fengchun's visual inspection exceeded 1.7 meters, and it was estimated to be around 1.7 meters three. Wearing thick-soled shoes, it was almost as small as Jin Shang.

This is slightly taller than Li Xuan. Walking around the campus, it is estimated that most of the boys are shorter than her.

Long hair, simply tied and thrown behind her, a delicate and fashionable hairstyle, a little light makeup, and a sense of heroism from the inside out, she is indeed very beautiful.

In terms of image creation, this cousin, whom she hasn't seen for many years, seems to be a little better than Li Xuan, who has completely given up housework and never turns her fingers.

Also, a young lady who can't comb her own hair before going to college is very rare in this era.

However, Mei Fengchun's demeanor may appear very elegant and charming ten years later, but now, it is really not necessarily more popular than the gentle and shy seniors.

In [-], when the atmosphere tended to be slightly conservative, heroines who did not give way to men might not be very popular.

"What, have you seen enough?"

With a half-smile, he said narrowly to Jin Shang who stared at him for a while,
"Isn't she beautiful? You used to say that I was savage and stupid, and I would definitely not be able to marry in the future. Are you dumbfounded now?"

"How can I remember what I said when I was a child so clearly!"

Jin Shang nodded slightly, then got straight to the point and said,

"Did you bring something?"

Mei Fengchun, who heard the words, also readily took out the prepared things from the small bag she carried with her.

"Do you want a disc or a tape? I don't know what kind of playback equipment you have at home..."

"Tapes are enough, discs are also fine, just use this, the sound quality is better."

While talking, Jin Shang quickly turned on the playback device and listened to Mei Fengchun's solfeggio.

The entire disc was nearly 10 minutes long, and there were four different versions of singing. Jin Shang listened to each of them carefully, and then explained to Mei Fengchun the pros and cons of them in detail.

"The first one, no, it feels too noisy to me. With a stronger sense of rhythm, it does appear to be more fashionable and avant-garde. However, the point is obviously wrong. It is enough to eat dumplings and dip them in vinegar. You are drinking dumplings Vinegar, put the cart before the horse."

"This...I also feel a little bit wrong, but it's not as bad as you said, right?"

Jin Shang didn't bother to respond to Mei Fengchun's complaints, and soon after, he also denied the second singing method.

"This one seems to be a little better than before, but it's farther away from the topic. Are you singing it as a love song? The singing is too mellow and soft, leaving aside all the remote artistic conception and heroic spirit in the lyrics. The double pattern Have you ever seen skating before? Leaving your partner aside, no matter how wonderful your performance is, you are still unqualified."

Seeing his little cousin's criticism so unceremoniously, Mei Fengchun's face suddenly became uneasy, and he retorted with a mutter:
"In this case, why don't you find a male singer to sing, isn't that more in line with your requirements?"

"If all the female singers are not suitable, I will definitely find a male singer to sing."

Jin Shang responded bluntly,

"What do you think is the main idea of ​​this poem? I don't understand it. I guess it's wrong no matter how you sing it..."

Seeing her little cousin belittle her so much, Mei Fengchun angrily replied:

"Isn't it just an arrogant guy who thinks he's great, but doesn't get along well? He gets drunk and goes crazy, bragging, expressing his feelings through the scene, and expressing his missing relatives by the way?"

"Although the words are a bit harsh, they are true in essence."

Jin Shang had to admit that what Mei Fengchun said was correct, it was only because the original lyricist's literary accomplishment was too high, and his thoughts and thoughts were too consistent with the Mid-Autumn Moonlight scene, and the right time, place and people made this song possible. Famous articles handed down from generation to generation.

"You have to understand that the words are like this, and the song will not be too far behind. It just strengthens the charm of missing relatives, rather than a simple lover living in two places, lonely and bored, and drowning his sorrows with wine."

"Understood, I will pay attention."

Although he was a little unhappy, what the little cousin said was right, he didn't do a good job, and Mei Fengchun was not a person who would never admit his mistakes.

The effect of the third audition sounded pretty good, and it seemed to be very close to Jin Shang's idea.

"This time...it's not bad. The singing is quite satisfactory. Although the characteristics are not obvious, there is nothing to criticize. The only thing that makes me a little dissatisfied is that the arrangement seems a bit old-fashioned."

This is a veiled statement, but it is actually a euphemism to express that the style is a bit old-fashioned. Older musicians and fans of the older generation will like it very much, but young people may not fully accept it.

Just like the pop song "A Man Should Be Self-Strengthening", which was born out of the ancient song "Order of the General", as time goes by, the styles of different people's covers have also changed slightly.

The slightly positive comments made Mei Fengchun, who had been aggrieved, feel a little better.

The next fourth song made Jin Shang feel a little interesting.

The string ensemble is well chosen, the guitarist is of a high level, and the coordination is very accurate. The cadence of the flute adds a bit of the coldness under the moonlight of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

What surprised Jin Shang even more was that Mei Fengchun's slightly lazy way of performing, paired with her timbre that is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, has a sense of anticipation of hearing thunder in a silent place.

This is a style that is quite different from the "Deng Ban" and "Wang Ban" heard in previous lives.

After listening carefully again, Jin Shangcai nodded slightly, and said to Mei Fengchun:

"The previous ones... you were singing while listening, and this fourth song is the expression of your true nature."

"Did you hear it?"

Mei Fengchun said with some embarrassment,

"Actually, when my uncle handed over the score and lyrics to me, he also told me your expectation and evaluation of this song, so..."

Taking what Jin Shang asked Nan Dabiao, Dai Yiqin, and Jin Shi during the chat, Mei Fengchun sang it, which was somewhat awkward.

"To be honest, I was a little surprised. This time... I still appreciate it. But, you have to understand that this is not just about the song and singer, but also involves an important commercial promotion. Do you want to use you, I still have to think about it."

"Understood, then I'm looking forward to it with hope. This song is really good. I didn't expect that little cousin who followed behind back then had such abilities."

"Who is following your ass."

Jin Shang retorted angrily,

"By the way, I think you are more suitable for rock and roll."

"Women... rock, can this work?"

"There just happens to be a gap in the market. If you can really fill it, I dare not say that there will be a place in the domestic music scene in the future."

If the rock circle is a muddy vanity fair, women's rock is full of all kinds of visual monsters and ghosts, and there is no room for them in the music world.

In fact, when he met Mei Fengchun again, Jin Shang felt as if he had met an upright and pure girl with vitality.As far as temperament is concerned, you can try to follow the path of Sakai Spring, starting with inspirational rock that spreads positive energy.

In terms of personal image, Mei Fengchun is even better than the lead singer of ZARD, her voice is very similar, and coupled with her superior family background, there are really people who are willing to praise her.
