Huayu: Starting from Fahrenheit

Chapter 202: Grandma

Although the singing lineup of the song "We Are Ready" is luxurious, it can be said to be the largest lineup in recent years.

But this song.

how to say!

In Wu Zhuo's words, the song is not widely sung.

Because the song is not very popular.

Therefore, even though a large number of stars gathered together, the popularity of this song is actually just that, not to mention the rankings on major music platforms.

Even on the official website of the Olympic Organizing Committee, the popularity of this song is very average.

Nowadays, the most popular song about the Olympics is Wu Chao's "Welcome to BJ".

It has been more than three months since this song was released.

This song is still on the charts in all major music charts.

From time to time, the program will see another wave of broadcast popularity due to the increased popularity of the Olympics.

Take the one-year countdown to the Olympics as an example.

The official promotion efforts are very strong.

Not only was it broadcast live on CCTV, but a promotional message "Countdown to the 2008 Beijing Olympics..." was also left in the lower left corner of each TV station.

With the help of this wave of publicity, songs related to the Olympics have received great exposure.

"Welcome to BJ" benefited the most from this.

In just one day, the song returned to the top five of all major charts.

The highest is ranked second and the lowest is fifth.

Under this wave of momentum, Wu Zhuo inevitably became one of the hottest singers at the moment.

His previous songs have once again experienced a wave of downloads and plays due to this wave of exposure.

Among them, some popular songs such as "Nuan Nuan" and "Dao Xiang" even returned to the charts.

And for Wu Chao, this is a very good opportunity.

So, after Fahrenheit went to Singapore to attend the premiere of "Rush Hour 3", on the 10th, HIM struck while the iron was hot and directly released Wu Chao's second single.

The single was directly named "Grandma".

There was no advance publicity and no main hit released to warm up the market.

It was released so suddenly.

……

Shanghai.

"Mom, I may not be able to come back for the Mid-Autumn Festival next month. These few months are a critical period for me. My boss has already said that he will give me a promotion after this period.

By then I will be the supervisor, and when my position is confirmed…”

Zhao Yide held the phone in one hand and kept putting fried dough sticks into his mouth with the other.

"Mom, I won't talk to you anymore. The bus is here. I'm going to get on first. I'll talk to you later."

Within sight, bus No. 36 is approaching slowly on the road.

Seeing the bus, Zhao Yide quickly swallowed the remaining fried dough sticks, said something into the phone, and hung up.

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Yide threw the food bag in his hand into the trash can. After the bus stopped, he quickly squeezed into the bus with everyone else.

The car was already full of people, and the aisles were packed with people standing.

Zhao Yide squeezed toward the back with great effort.

"Buy tickets, buy tickets. Those who are getting on the bus later, come to me and buy tickets."

The conductor called out loudly.

But the car was too crowded and the conductor was squeezed in the crowd. Everyone could only ask the person in front of them to help pay the ticket and then get the receipt back.

After buying the ticket, the bus started to move slowly.

In order to avoid losing his balance, Zhao Yide could only hold on to the seat in front of him.

In front of him were two young girls who looked only seventeen or eighteen years old.

Zhao Yide glanced at the two of them and couldn't help but complain in his heart.

"If my daughter dressed like this, I would beat her to death."

No wonder Zhao Yide had such an idea.

The outfits of the two girls in front of me are really shocking.

The long red hair was like a broom or a hedgehog, and the makeup on her face made Zhao Yide not want to look at it any more.

The black eyeliner completely covers the eyes, like panda eyes.

"Oh, digging a hole is so sexy..."

Each of the two girls wore a pair of headphones with the volume turned up very loud. Weird music came out of them, and Zhao Yide shook his head when he heard it.

He really couldn't understand these hobbies of these young people.

"Wu Zhuo has released new songs. I downloaded both songs. Do you want to listen to them?"

The shaky vehicle stopped from time to time because of red lights or traffic jams ahead.

Of the two girls, the one wearing a big earring asked her friend next to her in a low voice.

"Listen! Why not? I heard online that these two songs are very nice."

Her friend nodded immediately.

"It sounds nice, but it's a pity that we can't do a dance battle."

The girl said something regretfully, and then started operating the mp3.

After a while, the music started.

"Always asking for things from you but never saying thank you"

“It’s not easy to understand you until I grow up.”

"Every time I leave, I always pretend to be relaxed"

A melody and song with a hint of sadness came through the headphones of the two girls in front of him.

Zhao Yide couldn't help but be stunned after hearing the singing.

Subconsciously, he suddenly thought of his mother who had just talked to him on the phone.

I remember when I was a child, my family was poor and my mother raised four siblings alone.

In order to get a bite to eat, I went up the mountain to dig wild vegetables and dug up potatoes from the fields that I hadn't figured out how many times.

At that time, his favorite was the fried potatoes made by his mother. Just add a little bit of oil and the taste was very fragrant after frying.

It seemed like he hadn't felt that feeling since he grew up.

His thoughts began to wander, and Zhao Yide recalled the scene when his mother took his four brothers and sisters to the market, holding their hands.

The mother carried her younger sister on her back, held her third brother in her arms, and held him and her eldest brother by the hands of each of them.

As he thought about it, Zhao Yide suddenly became depressed.

He found that he hadn't been home for a long time.

Was the last time I went home the year before last? No, it seemed to be a year before that.

Two years ago, he and his wife returned to her parents' home.

Last year, he was unable to go back because his daughter went to high school.

When my mother found out that I couldn't go, she smiled and said that I must go back this Mid-Autumn Festival, and that we brothers and sisters should go together, otherwise, in a few years, she wouldn't be able to walk anymore...

Scenes from the past came to his mind and Zhao Yide felt a lump in his throat.

“This song is so fucking evil!”

Zhao Yide rubbed his slightly red eyes.

The songs were actually no different from the ones he had listened to before.

But for some reason, this song seemed to have a magical power that always made him subconsciously think of his mother.

After hesitating for a moment, Zhao Yide patted the broom girl in front of him and said, "Hello, your song is very nice. Can you tell me the name and who sings it?"

"The song is called 'Grandma', it's a song by Wu Zhuo. I heard it was written for his grandma who depended on him for everything."

The girl replied.

At this time, another girl started to interrupt.

"I've read a few reports and heard that Wu Zhuo's parents died when he was a child and he was raised by his grandmother.

He had a very hard childhood.”

"Wu Zhuo was indeed quite pitiful when he was a child. I saw an interview with Wu Zhuo some time ago.

According to him, he was always bullied by his classmates because he had no parents at that time.

For this reason, he learned boxing.
......"
