A song from Chengdu revived a closed-down pub.

Everyone listened attentively and was completely absorbed in the conversation.

Even those who usually like to send comments while listening to music were listening attentively.

"Fine, let's just use coded language."

A mutual understanding can be declared, and one can be without shame before heaven and earth.

Bring me a glass of wine, I'll take it!

To my youthful ambition

To My Life of Obscurity

I'll also dare to expose the lies of the world.

Some of them are high-sounding and dignified.

What does it matter if I'm missing?

……

The verse is about the clarity that comes from seeing through the ways of the world after half a lifetime, plus the courage to overturn the table.

Every sentence hits home.

Most of us will end up as nobodys in our entire lives.

But that doesn’t mean we don’t have the right to resist.

When we see injustice, when we see lies brazenly laid out before us.

Even if you are insignificant and trivial, you should still have the courage to stand up and say no.

This world is never short of people who talk a good game.

There is also no shortage of opportunists and sycophants.

What's lacking are precisely people who dare to speak the truth.

They are people who can hold onto their principles and refuse to back down.

Even if one's own strength is insignificant, one should still stand up with dignity.

I shall follow the bright moon and rest my head on the gentle breeze.

His bare body, bright and clear, rebuked the demons.

I work for a paycheck and apply what I've learned.

No one will laugh at my overestimation of my abilities.

I saw the long river flowing...

Who can leave a lasting name on a mere half-sheet of paper?

I shall go to that nameless, shapeless moonlight.

……

This chorus is truly the culmination of the entire song and a key moment in the protagonist's complete transformation of mindset.

From the initial phrase "as open and honest as a young man at the city gate" to the later "open and honest, blazing against demons and monsters," it was a gradual shift from passive steadfastness to active resistance.

This is no longer just about protecting oneself and keeping one's own innocence.

Instead, they are those who truly dare to stand up and condemn the dark forces lurking in the shadows.

From "No one bullies me because I have no one to rely on" to "No one laughs at me for overestimating myself," it's even more about how I went from simply hoping that others wouldn't bully me to later not caring about other people's ridicule at all.

Because I know in my heart that my ideals may seem absurd and laughable to others.

Even so, they still chose to go down a dead-end path and refused to turn back.

The shift from "paying homage to the moonlight outside the temple" to "going to the nameless and shapeless moonlight" carries much greater weight.

That moonlight was no longer something that could only be gazed upon from afar, inspiring longing.

Instead, it became a direction worth dedicating one's entire life to.

Let go of fame and fortune, give up readily available prosperity, and choose to become an eternal spiritual pursuit.

This is true growth.

The song has come to its final part.

"A single gesture from afar reaches ten thousand villages and the glorious Tang Dynasty"

To my life, like a peerless breeze in this mortal world.

May all kings and nobles, and children alike, bask in the morning sun.

I salute the flower beneath the hooves of a thousand horses.

I salute Yan'er's home, which is full of muddy husks.

……

"With a wave of the hand, one can reach all the lands and the glorious Tang Dynasty." This wave carries a sense of farewell, making people's noses tingle and almost unable to hold back their tears.

From the distant past to the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the sentiments of family and country are immediately revealed, and the grand vision is so impressive that it is breathtaking.

But then the pen shifts, "To my life, like a peerless wind in this mortal world."

Although an individual may be as insignificant as a speck of dust, there is ultimately only one me in this world.

To be honest and upright is to be unparalleled.

It gives people a sense of overlooking authority for no apparent reason.

It's as if you're standing on high ground, gently tossing aside all those nobles and injustices of the world, leaving the listener's heart burning with warmth.

"May all kings and nobles and children in this world be able to bask in the morning sun." This wish sounds simple, but upon closer reflection, it is surprisingly poignant.

Regardless of whether they are children from royal or noble families.

He's just an ordinary family's child.

Everyone should be able to bask in the same sunlight.

Everyone should have the right to pursue happiness.

But it is precisely this kind of equal opportunity that is the hardest thing to achieve in this world.

History often leaves behind the names of countless armies, emperors, and generals.

But what truly commands respect is the little flower that stubbornly blooms beneath the horse's hooves.

It is a home built by swallows carrying mud bit by bit.

They are small, but their vitality can bear immense weight.

Many people see themselves reflected in this song.

My own struggle, my own perseverance.

Be true to yourself and to your conscience.

The comment section was quiet for a few seconds when the song ended, and then it was flooded with messages.

"I was stunned for a long time after listening to it. I sat alone at my desk, my eyes welling up with tears. This song truly understands us ordinary people!"

"I clicked in just to watch the fun, but after listening, I was left with nothing but admiration. The lyrics are incredibly powerful!"

"As an ordinary person living in a big city, every line in this song feels like it's talking about me. I really couldn't hold back my tears after listening to it!"

"After listening, all I can say is, this is truly good music. It doesn't rely on hype or trending topics; the song itself alone is enough to bring you to tears!"

"I was worried that Su Daxian might not be able to handle this, but now I'm completely relieved. A person like him and a work like his will not be overlooked!"

"Once this song is released, those who were still hesitant will probably become fans. Talent can't be faked!"

……

Lin Chongguang and Jiang Wenli also listened to "Outside the Temple".

After a long pause, Lin Chongguang finally asked, "What are your thoughts after listening?"

Jiang Wenli said truthfully, "To be honest, it's really well written. Not only is the music good, but the lyrics are also substantial, with every line hitting the heart."

Lin Chongguang remarked with emotion, "I've lived most of my life, and it's rare to find something that can truly move someone my age."

"Su Fan is a really good kid."

"It's more than just having some talent. A young man who has just started out, being surrounded and cornered like this, he didn't panic or beg for mercy. His backbone and mentality are stronger than many of ours."

Jiang Wenli didn't respond, but just listened quietly.

Lin Chongguang changed the subject, his tone turning serious: "Old Jiang, I've thought about this matter, and we can't just leave it like this any longer."

"What do you mean?"

"These entertainment companies in Kyoto usually operate independently, but this time, in order to suppress a newcomer, they actually managed to unite and create such a big commotion. This is no longer a small friction within the industry; someone is using this as an excuse to try and control the entire industry. This time, we can't just give them a warning and let it go. We need to thoroughly investigate and find out who is behind the conspiracy of these companies that besieged Su Fan. Those who should be dealt with should be dealt with, and those who should be eliminated should be eliminated. We absolutely cannot allow this kind of thing to become the norm in the industry."

Jiang Wenli stood up: "I understand. I'll arrange for people to review all the companies involved in this project."

Lin Chongguang nodded: "Su Fan is a promising young man with backbone. He shouldn't be left to shoulder the burden alone."

"I understand, I'll keep a close eye on this."
