The diva and I cross each other

Chapter 298 "Father"

"A Ming, do you have any inspiration for the soundtrack or songs?" Lin Shuwen asked.

"I can try."

"You have to take it seriously! The song for this advertisement has been written, and there may be a chance to appear on the Spring Festival Gala."

"Sister Wen!" Halfway through Lin Shuwen's words, Chen Sichu suddenly ran in.

"what happened?"

"Sister Wen, Zhang Song is here."

"Come just come! Now that Zhuoguang Entertainment is also his company, isn't it normal for him to come?" Lin Shuwen said nonchalantly.

"Well, that seems to be the case."

Luo Ming smiled and said, "I have a good impression of him. Let's go up and have a chat with him! We'll finish the song by the way."

What is the difference between this and pie in the sky?
Afterwards, everyone came together to the recording studio where the two came to Zhuoguang Entertainment.

While the two were hesitating, Luo Ming had already picked up a guitar and started tuning it.

Only then did Zhang Songzhi notice that Lin Shuwen and Chen Sichu were followed by the company's big boss Luo Ming.

"Is there something wrong with Brother Zhang's sudden return?" Lin Shuwen asked curiously.

"Okay! I'm going to stay in Bingzhou for a few days. Mr. Chen, please think about it slowly. By the way, Mr. Chen, does our company have a car? I may have to run around a lot these days and need a car."

"Brother Zhang, you don't need to be so polite. It's better to come early than to come by chance. Brother Zhang, I'm going to write a new song here. I think your voice is quite suitable. Come with me to the recording studio!"

Lin Shuwen was a little surprised when she heard this. She thought Zhang Songzhi was coming back to the company to seek help, but she didn't expect that he was here to support the company's juniors.

"Sister Wen, did Mr. Luo have inspiration so quickly?" Chen Junmiao asked in a low voice.

As soon as Lin Shuwen finished speaking, Luo Ming's guitar sounded, and Luo Ming's singing followed:
"Always asking for things from you but never saying thank you,
It’s not until I grow up that I understand that it’s not easy for you.

When Luo Ming and the others pushed the door in, Zhang Songzhi was chatting with Chen Junmiao. Chen Junmiao looked a little embarrassed, and it was obvious that he had encountered something that could not be solved.

"Wenwen, long time no see."

Zhang Songzhi's eyes lit up when he heard this. He didn't expect that he would get such an unexpected surprise when he returned to the company to support his juniors.

There were two trainees in the recording studio at the moment, and they were startled when they saw Luo Ming and others suddenly come in.

"Brother Zhang, long time no see!" Lin Shuwen interrupted the conversation between the two at the right time.

"Yes, our company has a special car. If you need it, Brother Zhang, I will have someone arrange it for you." Luo Ming said with a smile.

The three of them came to Zhuoguang Entertainment together. Zhang Songzhi was in Chen Junmiao's office at the moment.

"I don't know either, it looks like it must be there!"

"Well, I recently took a job. It's a variety show. I can take care of someone. I thought our company has just started! Maybe there are trainees who need to be trained or something, so I came to Mr. Chen to ask."

But in this case, why does Chen Junmiao look embarrassed again?
At this time, Chen Junmiao spoke: "Brother Zhang, I have to think about who to send. There are more than one trainee in our company who has potential and is worthy of training. You can bring one person here. I have to think about who to send." Go to the show with you.”

Zhang Song stood up straight and greeted Luo Ming: "Mr. Luo, good morning."

The boss of the company and the biggest star of the company are here. Should they go out?

I always pretend to be relaxed every time I leave,
Smiling and saying "Go back," he turned around and had tears in his eyes. "

Yes, the song Luo Ming decided to use as the soundtrack for the public service announcement was "Father" by Chopstick Brothers.

This song was written and arranged by Wang Taili, one of the Chopstick Brothers. The song was released on December 2011, 12 and was included in the album "Father".

When this song was written, Wang Taili was filming the short film "Oldboy".

After he learned that his father had passed away, he was deeply saddened. He deeply understood what it means to be filial but not to be loved by relatives, so he wrote this song to commemorate his father.

In the previous life, this song was paired with the micro-movie "Father". It can be said that it made countless people cry after listening to it, and Luo Ming was one of them. Therefore, when he saw this public service advertisement, Luo Ming almost immediately thought of this song. .

Teacher Gao Yalin, who plays Xia Donghai in "Family with Children", once said in a variety show: "Parents are the wall between us and the god of death."

Luo Ming read an interpretation of this sentence on Zhihu: When your parents are still alive, you will feel that there is something between you and death, and your understanding of death is also abstract. You will not think about it. There won't be any feelings.

But once your parents are gone, this wall will collapse in an instant, and you will face death! You will begin to understand what death is, and it may even directly affect your outlook on life and death.

Before, Luo Ming only thought that this sentence made sense. It was not until his grandfather passed away and some unexplainable changes occurred in his father that Luo Ming truly understood this sentence.

He chose this song because he wanted to convey this emotion and feeling.

Unbeknownst to others, after Zhang Songzhi heard the beginning of the song, his buried memories began to tumble involuntarily.

Zhang Songzhi is not a talented singer. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a late bloomer, otherwise he would not be able to perform "Youth and Promise" so perfectly.

Precisely because when he was young, he really had nothing and had to endure all kinds of hardships before he could empathize with it.

But in fact, for Zhang Songzhi, besides him, his father is also suffering. At that time, Zhang Songzhi had been struggling at the bottom of the entertainment industry for his music dream.

His father, on the other hand, has been working harder to make money, and from time to time he has to give money to his useless son.

During this period, Zhang Songzhi's father came to Shanghai to visit him. Every time he came here, his father from the countryside would bring a lot of things.

He used to think it was nothing, but once when he was moving, he didn't know which muscle was cramping, and a thought flashed in his mind: "There are so many things, so heavy, how does he bring them all the way here every time?"

What father doesn’t want his children to achieve something?
His father was no exception, so every time his father came over and saw Zhang Song living in a small and dark rental house, he would always advise him to change careers.

At that time, Zhang Songzhi was obsessed with making a name for himself in the entertainment industry. He was quite impatient with his father's advice and would even quarrel directly with his father.

Once, the two of them had a serious quarrel. Zhang Song asked his father with red eyes, "Do you think I'm not good enough, even you?"

His father was silent. That was the only time he won an argument against his father.

The next day, when Zhang Songzhi sent his father to the train station, his father left all the money in his pocket with him.

Zhang Songzhi did not know at that time that this was all the money his father had. It was not until his father passed away that his mother told him that his father had been hungry for more than 20 hours on his way home because he had given all the money to him.

After returning home, the father cried and said that he was a drag on his son and that he was sorry for his son.

At that moment, Zhang Songzhi realized that it was not he who won the argument with his father, but his words that hurt his father.

For his father, it was so difficult for Zhang Songzhi because he was not successful enough.

If he could be richer, would his son be able to pursue his dreams without worrying about life?

Zhang Songzhi didn't cry when he learned the news of his father's death, but when he learned that his father had said these words, his tears couldn't stop flowing down.

Zhang Song still remembers clearly until now that one day he suddenly received a call from his father.

"Son, I won't go to the construction site next year. I can't do it anymore." The father's voice was a little weak at that time, and there was even a little guilt in it.

But Zhang Songzhi didn't take it seriously, because at that time, Zhang Songzhi's career had already improved. He sang a theme song for a movie, which became an instant hit. Various commercial performances followed one after another, and Zhang Songzhi's life It's starting to get better.

He no longer needed his father's salary. He smiled and said, "Dad, you should have rested a long time ago. I can take care of myself and you now. Just wait at home and enjoy your happiness!" "

The old man on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment and then said several times: "Okay."

Then in the second half of the year, his father was diagnosed with stomach cancer.

Only then did Zhang Songzhi realize that his father didn't ask for a break because he was angry, but that he really couldn't do it anymore.

This pillar of the family only chose to put down everything in its hands when it realized that it was about to collapse.

When Zhang Songzhi learned the news and rushed back, his father had become so skinny that he passed away not long after.

When sorting out his father's belongings, he found one record after another in the drawer.

Even the songs he wrote in the past that were not popular are there.

It turned out that this man, who had asked him to change careers several times, secretly bought every song he wrote.

Zhang Songzhi's father, like many other people's fathers, never said anything nice, only worked hard and silently guarded the family from behind.

"I wish it were the same as before,
Hold your warm hand.

But you are not beside me,
I asked Qingfeng to carry Ankang with me. "

When he heard these lyrics, Zhang Song bit his lip and his body trembled.

This lyric means that the father is not around.

But for him, he no longer has a father.

The son wants to be taken care of, but the relatives don't care for him. It's nothing more than this.

At this moment, the climax of the chorus also arrived. Luo Ming didn't use any singing skills, falsetto, or voice change. He simply sang:

"Time will go slower,

Don’t let it get you older.

I am willing to use everything I have to give you a long life.

A father who wants to be strong all his life,

What can I do for you?
It's a trivial concern, accept it! "

After singing the song, Luo Ming put down his guitar and looked at everyone.

Perhaps Luo Ming was so immersed in singing this song that when he put down his guitar, he noticed that two of the people in the recording studio had red eyes, and the rest also had complicated expressions. Obviously thinking of his father.
