(30 chapters, 6 words, I haven't slept for a day and a night, I feel like I can travel through time)

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the ratings of CCTV-3 soared.

The popularity of television has accelerated significantly in the late 20th century, especially after the reform and opening up. With the development of the economy and the improvement of people's living standards, television has gradually become a standard configuration in households.

By the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century, the penetration rate of televisions had become quite high, especially in urban areas, where almost every household had a television.

However, the current penetration rate of computers is much lower, which makes watching TV the first choice for ordinary people to entertain themselves after dinner.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion dinner, the family happily watched the CCTV Mid-Autumn Festival Gala in front of the TV.

Na Ying's "Flowers in the Mist", Zhao Wei's "There is a Girl", Power Train's "When"...

One classic song and popular song after another gave the audience a feast for the ears.

"Persistence" sung by Tian Zhen, written by Xu Wei.

If Shen Lang sang another song "Blue Lotus", Xu Wei would have won a double victory.

At this time, next to Yangzhou, Jinling.

The famous director You Xiaogang was also watching the CCTV Mid-Autumn Festival Gala with his family.

A burst of melodious music caught his attention.

He immediately turned his attention to the TV.

"A lonely lamp stands at the window
I'm pretending behind the door that you haven't left yet

It’s even lonelier to revisit the old place under the full moon…”

It was Shen Lang who took the stage to sing at this time. He sang the new song "Dong Feng Po" from his new album.

You Xiaogang is one of the representative figures of the fifth generation of Chinese directors.

His works are mainly secret history TV series, which are praised as classics. They show his talent as a screenwriter and director and make him a figure on par with famous contemporary directors such as Feng Xiaogang, Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige.

At this point in time, he was just preparing the first part of the secret history trilogy, "The Secret History of Xiaozhuang".

That’s why I was attracted to this particular song.

Combining Chinese and Western styles, immersing yourself in ancient charm.

"Who is playing the song Dong Feng Po on the pipa?
Time is peeling off the wall, I see you when you were a child

I still remember that we were still very young at that time
But now the sound of the piano is faint, you have not heard my waiting..."

This song combines multiple styles including pop, R&B, hip-hop, and also incorporates Chinese elements.

It is like a classical painting, with the melodious guzheng and the affectionate pipa as the pens, outlining a love that transcends time and space.

The pipa played a song called "Dong Feng Po". There was not a single ancient Chinese word in the lyrics, but the arrangement and music conveyed the ancient charm to the fullest.

In particular, the combination of erhu and pipa in the interlude left a deep impression on You Xiaogang.

“This song is quite interesting.”

"Shen Lang, a very familiar name."

"Oh, him, the young man who wrote the theme songs for Bao Gang's play and the theme songs for the Olympic bid."

You Xiaogang took two puffs of his cigarette and recalled the song he had just sung.

Suddenly, an idea popped into my mind.

You can ask Shen Lang to collaborate with you on your own film "The Secret History of Xiaozhuang" and write a theme song with this unique style and flavor.

Ok……

Seems good.

Shen Lang didn't know that he had won an order through one of his performances.

After the party, he rushed to catch the plane back to Yanjing.

I originally wanted to invite Tian Zhen to dinner, but Tian Zhen also had to catch a plane to Xingcheng and had an event tomorrow, so we changed the plan to next time.

After being busy for a while, Shen Lang finally got to have a good rest.

It was already early morning when we arrived in Yanjing.

Du Ting went home for the holidays.

He parked his car in the airport parking lot and drove directly back to the apartment.

The moment I opened the apartment door with the key, I found that the lights in the living room were on and there was sound coming from the TV.

The first reaction is that there is a thief?

But what thief would turn on the TV when stealing?

Shen Lang walked through the entrance carefully and lightly, stretched his head to look into the living room, and saw a graceful body lying on the sofa - Gao Yuanyuan was asleep. I was startled, thinking that there was a thief.

The key here has only been given to Gao Yuanyuan.

The reason why I didn't think of her just now is because today is Mid-Autumn Festival, and she should be at home celebrating the festival with her parents.

Shen Lang put his bag down, closed the door, and changed his shoes.

Then he came to the sofa, gently picked up Gao Yuanyuan, and walked towards the bedroom.

I wanted her to go to bed and sleep, but she woke up halfway through.

Shen Lang really scared Gao Yuanyuan.

I fell asleep on the sofa, how did I end up in someone's arms.

I opened my eyes and breathed a sigh of relief when I saw it was him.

Gao Yuanyuan raised her hand and put it around his neck, smiling sweetly, "You're back."

Shen Lang responded with a gentle smile, and then asked, "Why are you here?"

Gao Yuanyuan blinked her eyes and explained, "I had a Mid-Autumn Festival reunion dinner with my parents at home. After watching you sing, I felt bored, so I came here to wait for you. I turned on the TV and fell asleep while watching."

Shen Lang put her on the bed, pinched her nose, and said, "Why didn't you call me? What if I can't come back tonight? You've waited in vain."

Gao Yuanyuan said nonchalantly: "What's the big deal? You can just sleep here for one night. You'll always come back anyway."

What else could Shen Lang say?

The Mid-Autumn moon is full, and people are happier.

In such a romantic atmosphere, you must do something you love.

When I lay down, I found that dawn had broken and it was already morning.

Fortunately, it is a rest period and I can sleep in.

Draw the curtains and ignore everything.

Taibei, Warner Records.

The sales data of "I'm Not an Angel", Na Ying's first album after joining Warner, has come out one month after its release.

23 copies were sold in the Mainland, 3 copies in Hong Kong, 16 copies in Formosa Province, and the total sales in Asia exceeded 50 copies.

This sales volume has already firmly placed her in the top ten of the year among female singers.

However, Na Ying was very dissatisfied with this result.

She has never played Stefanie Sun’s new album “Silence” or Elva Hsiao’s new album “The Main Theme of Love”.

What about Shen Lang’s new album “Lang”?

Na Ying has already been photographed on the beach.

The 55 tickets from the mainland alone are more than enough to cover her entire collection.

Not to mention that sales in Asia once again exceeded one million copies.

Shen Lang also became the first mainland singer to have three consecutive albums selling over one million copies after his debut.

Na Ying lost her temper after losing so badly.

All the previous ambitions and arrogance are gone.

There is no idea how to win.

The key point is that under this circumstance, the company still has to hold a celebration banquet for Na Ying.

Anyway, it is a good result, ranking second among Warner's singers.

And with this sales volume, Na Ying's music album has exceeded 2300 million sales in Asia.

He is the first person in the mainland music scene to achieve such results after 13 years of debut.

It must be a grand event.

The venue alone cost a seven-figure sum to decorate and transform into a luxurious "Roman Palace", setting a record for the most luxurious album celebration party in Formosa Province's history.

This operation attracted the attention of countless media in Mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan.

However, Na Ying felt very uncomfortable at the dinner party. She felt that anyone who smiled was making fun of her.

uncomfortable.

want to go.
