A song from Chengdu revived a closed-down pub.
Chapter 327 Ningxia
The production team was prepared in advance.
Xia Ping glanced at the time and gestured to Su Fan.
Su Fan then walked in front of the camera.
He didn't mention the song immediately, but first looked up at the starry sky.
After a moment, he slowly said, "These past few days, we've visited the Western Xia Imperial Tombs, walked through the Helan Mountains, and seen the place where the Yellow River meets the desert. Ningxia Province has encapsulated history, the Yellow River, the Gobi Desert, oases, and the starry sky all in this land."
"However, the next song will not talk about dynasties, nor will it sing about the desert and the Yellow River, because sometimes, what people really remember about a city or a place is not necessarily something grand."
"It could just be a gentle evening breeze, a starry sky, or a quiet summer night."
Upon hearing this, the scene gradually quieted down.
The viewers in the live stream realized that Su Fan was finally about to reveal the song.
Su Fan paused for a moment, a smile appearing on his face: "The name of this song happens to be the same as where we are now, it's called 'Ningxia'."
The moment the song title was announced, a flood of comments appeared in the live stream.
"Should we just call it 'Ningxia'?"
"This name is so fitting; it represents both Ning Province and a tranquil summer night!"
"Desert, starry sky, evening breeze, and the song 'Ningxia'—the scene is already there!"
"Su Fan, sing faster, stop teasing us!"
……
However, despite being urged by netizens, Su Fan did not go to her performance spot.
He gestured to the photographer, turning the live stream camera towards Xie Siyu, who was standing next to him.
After everyone's attention was on her, Su Fan continued, "The song 'Ningxia' requires a clean and quiet voice. Of course, it's not that I can't sing it, but there's someone in the company who's more suitable for it than me. She's been with Han Tang Entertainment for a while now, but she hasn't had many opportunities to stand in front of everyone. So today, I want to give this song to her."
Standing not far away, Lin Xiangyu's mood was like a rollercoaster, rising and falling in just a few minutes.
When he heard the song was called "Ningxia", he became very excited.
Everyone knows how much traffic Su Fan's song "Chengdu" brought to Sichuan Province back then.
Even now, many tourists still yearn for Sichuan Province because of that song.
Now, Su Fan has released another song named after Ning Province.
If the song is of good enough quality, "Ningxia" has the potential to become a new calling card for Ningxia's culture and tourism.
By then, Ningxia will have a propaganda song that can be passed down for a long time.
Lin Xiangyu has even begun to consider how to discuss promotional collaborations for the song with Han Tang Entertainment after the live stream ends.
But before he could be happy for long, Su Fan suddenly announced that he would not be singing the song.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiangyu's heart skipped a beat.
The level of attention garnered by Su Fan writing a song and Su Fan personally performing it are ultimately not the same.
Moreover, he had almost never heard of Xie Siyu before.
Will giving a song named after Ningxia Province to a relatively unknown newcomer really achieve the desired effect?
Lin Xiangyu turned to the staff member beside him and asked in a low voice, "Do you know anything about this Xie Siyu?"
The staff member took out his phone and quickly checked: "He was a contestant who came from the show 'Music Pioneers,' but he doesn't have any representative works."
Hearing this answer, Lin Xiangyu's mood sank even further.
He looked at Su Fan in the center of the stage and couldn't help but complain in his heart.
Amidst everyone's anticipation, Xie Siyu slowly walked to the microphone.
She didn't rush to speak, but first bowed deeply to the audience.
After standing up, she turned around and bowed to the band behind her.
The people from Han Tang Entertainment all nodded to her, their eyes telling her that everything was ready.
Su Fan stood to the side and encouraged, "Don't feel pressured. Just sing normally, like you do during rehearsals."
Xie Siyu glanced at him and nodded gently.
She took a deep breath, placed her hands in front of her, and slowly grasped the microphone.
The next moment, clear and soothing music rang out in the quiet desert.
The accompaniment is not complicated.
The gentle guitar and keyboard slowly unfold, without strong drumbeats or deliberately creating a grand atmosphere, as if it were just an evening breeze blowing across the sand dunes.
Xie Siyu's voice then came out.
"A tranquil summer sky dotted with stars"
I miss your face so much.
I can pretend I can't see it
You can also secretly miss them.
Until I can touch your warm face.
……
Xie Siyu's voice wasn't particularly high-pitched, nor did she excessively show off her skills.
But that clean, gentle tone blended almost perfectly with the environment at that moment.
Above us was a night sky filled with starlight.
In the distance, silent, undulating sand dunes stretch out.
A cool evening breeze passed by the crowd, gently blowing Xie Siyu's long hair.
Her song describes a peaceful summer, and what the audience sees is precisely a quiet summer night.
The lyrics make no mention of the Yellow River, the Helan Mountains, or any specific tourist attractions in Ningxia Province.
It depicts only one person quietly missing another under the stars.
That longing wasn't intense.
There was no heart-wrenching pain.
There was no hysteria.
I just kept it quietly in my heart.
It occasionally appears in the quiet of the night.
The more restrained you are, the more likely it is to remind people of a certain face from their memories.
Many audience members at the scene originally thought that "Ningxia" would be a grand and majestic local propaganda song.
Only now did they finally understand why Su Fan said this song needed a clean voice.
If his voice were used instead, the song might have a different flavor.
When sung by Xie Siyu, the gentleness and purity of a summer night seem exceptionally natural.
As she finished singing the first verse, her hand, which had been gripping the microphone tightly, gradually relaxed.
She could sense that there was no noisy discussion at the scene, and no one was disappointed because the singer was not Su Fan.
Everyone was listening intently to her singing.
This quietness, ironically, gave her the greatest confidence.
Comments began to appear quickly in the live stream room.
"This sound is so clean, it matches the starry sky perfectly tonight!"
"I originally wanted to hear Su Fan sing, but now I suddenly feel that Xie Siyu is indeed more suitable!"
"Without a big stage or elaborate lighting, just singing quietly in the desert, the feeling just came through!"
"I initially thought 'Ningxia' referred to Ningxia Province, but after hearing the first line, I realized it also describes a tranquil summer!"
"But if this song is sung under the starry sky of Ningxia, the two meanings completely overlap!"
"Su Fan wasn't lying; this song isn't about explosive power, but rather a sound that calms people down!"
