A song from Chengdu revived a closed-down pub.

After seeing Deng Zongqi off, Su Fan turned on his computer and organized the manuscript of "As You Wish".

This song, "On Earth," features lyrics by Tang Tian, ​​music and arrangement by Qian Lei, and is sung by Faye Wong.

After meticulously organizing the lyrics, music, and arrangement, Su Fan leaned back in his chair, gazing at the screen, and softly remarked, "This prosperous era is just as you wished!"

Having finished everything, Su Fan got up and went to the recording studio.

Upon seeing this, the others, as if familiar with the place, immediately surrounded them.

This has now become a regular feature of the company's program.

As soon as Su Fan entered the recording studio, the people outside crowded around the monitoring headphones and started making all sorts of guesses.

Xie Siyu lowered her voice: "What style do you think it will be this time? Last time it was Peking Opera, the time before that it was ancient style, will this time be even more explosive?"

Ma Xiaoya said with certainty: "I bet it's rock. It's been a long time since we've had this style. This time, we have to give it a high-energy start and let everyone relax."

He Xiaoxiao shook her head: "It's hard to say. He's a very cunning person. The more you try to guess, the less likely he is to be right."

Xu Meng thought for a moment and said, "I saw that Director Deng came here. Could it be a song specially made for National Day? If so, it's probably a particularly exciting and inspiring song."

"That makes sense." Xie Siyu nodded. "Shouldn't these kinds of mainstream themes be passionate and inspiring?"

He Xiaoxiao waved her hand: "Stop, stop, stop guessing, or your face will hurt. Anyway, we've never guessed right."

Just as everyone was speculating, Su Fan began to sing in the recording studio.

You are the long road

"A lamp in the thick fog of the mountains"

……

The prelude is an extremely soothing melody, completely different from the exciting and passionate atmosphere that everyone had imagined.

But it is this sense of tranquility that touches people's hearts.

The faces outside, which had initially held a hint of amusement, gradually fell silent.

In that song, there is longing, solace, and a heartfelt call that transcends the years.

After the song ended, all was quiet outside.

The crowd stood there, stunned, unable to come to their senses for a long time.

This time, there were no explosive high notes or dazzling techniques, but the deep affection hidden in the soothing melody was more moving than any passionate shout.

Before they knew it, several people's eyes had already turned red.

Su Fan came out of the recording studio, looked at everyone's defeated appearance once again, shook his head helplessly, and walked away without saying a word.

Back in his office, Su Fan sent the recorded demo to Deng Zongqi and then made a phone call: "Director Deng, the lyrics, music, and demo have all been sent to your email."

"So fast?!" Deng Zongqi blurted out.

As soon as the words left his mouth, he realized he had misspoke and hurriedly added, "That's not what I meant. I meant that your speed is beyond my expectations."

"After you left, I found a similar song I had worked on before, so I took it out. Please take a look first, and if you have any questions, we can discuss them further."

After hanging up the phone, Deng Zongqi gripped his phone, muttering to himself, "Delivering the goods so quickly... could it be just a way to brush me off?"

He shook his head helplessly, still harboring some doubts. He got up and went back to his office, downloaded the demo Su Fan had sent, opened it, and listened to the lyrics and music as he read them.

When the melody started, it wasn't the exciting and uplifting tune he had envisioned.

On the contrary, it was somewhat soothing.

It was even somewhat bland.

Deng Zongqi frowned slightly and muttered, "As expected, this is just to appease me!"

He was originally leaning back in his chair, his posture relaxed, with a hint of scrutiny and even disappointment.

But as the song continued, the nonchalance on his face gradually froze.

First, the furrowed brows, then slowly relaxed.

Then, those eyes, which had been half-closed, gradually opened wide.

Finally, without realizing it, he straightened up from the back of the chair and sat up straight.

He braced his hands on the edge of the table and leaned over the screen, as if afraid of missing a single word.

That soothing melody was anything but bland; it clearly contained a thousand words of deep affection, all woven into this restraint.

The words of solace in the lyrics, transcending time and space, are understated yet unstoppable.

As the song drew to a close, Deng Zongqi's eyes welled up with tears and his throat tightened with emotion.

He stared blankly at the two words "As You Wish" on the screen, remaining motionless for a long time.

After a long while, he finally let out a long sigh and murmured to himself, "What a talent!"

Deng Zongqi composed himself, took a deep breath, and calmed down for a moment before picking up the internal phone and calling all the core members of the production team into his office.

As the group gradually entered, they were all puzzled by the director's solemn expression and exchanged confused glances.

Deng Zongqi said, "I called everyone here because I have something to say. Su Fan's song has been sent over. Everyone, come and listen to it."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately perked up.

"So fast! I thought it would take at least half a month!"

"Can something produced in such a rushed manner be of acceptable quality?"

……

Deng Zongqi said meaningfully, "After listening, judge for yourself."

As he spoke, he clicked on the demo and turned up the volume.

The office fell silent instantly.

As soon as the intro started, everyone's faces still carried a hint of professional scrutiny.

After all, they've heard too many of Guoqing's works; they've seen all kinds of them.

But gradually, the atmosphere in the office changed.

Those who had been leaning against the wall with their arms crossed unconsciously straightened up.

Those who had been exchanging quiet glances gradually fell silent and held their breath.

The heartfelt remembrance that transcended time and space in the song touched the hearts of everyone present.

Some people's eyes reddened, and they quietly turned their faces away.

Some people clenched their fists, their throats bobbing slightly.

Some people stared blankly at the player, their eyes filled with disbelief.

When the music ended, the office was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

After a long pause, someone exclaimed, "This is absolutely a work that will go down in history!"

"This concept, this emotion—singing to our predecessors from the perspective of the younger generation—is so touching! It's on a completely different level from those who just shout slogans!"

"The key is that it's not noisy, but as you listen, tears will naturally fall. That kind of lingering effect is what truly makes it sophisticated!"

……

At this point, Deng Zongqi spoke up: "What are everyone's opinions on this song?"

The answer was already obvious from everyone's expressions.

Everyone exclaimed, "With this song, we're all set for National Day!"

Deng Zongqi then asked, "Regarding the performance, does anyone have any recommendations?"

Without hesitation, everyone voted for Su Fan.

Deng Zongqi said, "Okay, I'll go talk to him. Let Su Fan sing this song himself."

Everyone was inexplicably excited about this decision.

"Alright, next, we need to gather the relevant materials for this song. Xiao Zhou will be in charge of that."

"Director Deng, don't worry, I guarantee I'll complete the mission!"

Next, Deng Zongqi made the corresponding arrangements.

The others also accepted the order and left.

After everyone left, Deng Zongqi couldn't help but play the demo again from the beginning.
