Chapter 717, "No Love" and "New Love"!(1/2)

"Infernal Affairs 2" is quite a bit aggressive.

No wonder, no one can beat this period. During this period of May Day, the box office of "Infernal Affairs 2" was even a bit outrageous, but people don't realize it was Li Zhifan's work and the first one had laid the foundation before, so people didn't realize it was strange.

In addition to China, Japan and South Korea have also been released one after another, especially South Korea. Because the first one was released less than a month ago, the second one was released, which really surprised Korean movie fans.

Japan released its first part as early as the beginning of the year, and the release time of the second part was closely followed by China's date. Driven by a good reputation and a mature market, "Infernal Affairs 2" won the box office in Japan and South Korea, which also won the championship of the quarter.

At the same time, with the popularity of "Infernal Affairs 2", there is also the movie's interlude "Forgotten Time".

This song was included in the first part, but only one clip was played at that time, and in the end, there was only a short section on the entire network, without the entire song.

Because at that time, the theme song "Infernal Affairs" sang by Li Zhifan and Chen Guanjun was recommended, and in order to retain a gimmick, the song was not released, and even the original singer was not exposed.

The second part was released, and the full version of "Forgotten Time" was finally released. The singer of this song is Zhen Fen, a famous female singer who debuted in the 1980s.

Zhen Fen hasn't released a new song for twenty years, but she still holds a concert at the Hung Hom Stadium in Xiangjiang for two or three years. She is now 63 years old, and her singing is still as smooth as when she was young. The song has more years of precipitation in the song, and there is no need to sing the music in the later stage.

During the release of "Infernal Affairs 2", Zhen Fen took the opportunity to launch this year's concert. This time, it was no longer limited to Hung Hom. It was staged at the 80,000-person stadium in the capital of Beijing, and the Swico Cultural Center in Shanghai held three consecutive games.

Many people are worried that Zhen Fen will lose energy when she holds a concert at her age and will have other problems.

After thousands of netizens are looking forward to leaving, worries are naturally indispensable.

The organizer took care of Zhen Fen's health and hired three medical teams to gather a county-level health center.

As the key figure in Zhen Fen's comeback, Li Zhifan was invited to serve as a guest for her first-team concert. At the same time, Chen Guanjun was invited to sing "Infernal Affairs" together.

California.

Liu Yuan’s family.

For the guest performance mission at the first stadium, Chen Guanjun flew over and asked Li Zhifan to tailor a few songs for him.

Chen Guanjun has never sang a song in any public place, and has never released any other songs except "Infernal Affairs" sang with Li Zhifan, so this is a completely new cross-border for him.

Chen Guanjun doesn’t ask for songs to make him popular, he just wants to have his own song during commercial performances.

Based on this principle, Li Zhifan tailored three songs for him, two in Cantonese and one in Mandarin, both full of Hong Kong flavor.

Two of the Cantonese songs are still retro music from the 1980s, but against the backdrop of the new arrangement, the feeling of the old era only stays in the tune, and the Chinese people's preference for music is this particularly pleasant melody.

"It's done!"

Listening to the music he recorded, Chen Guanjun was very excited.

This was the first time he had recorded independently, and even the harmony was sung by himself.

For Chen Guanjun, who doesn't understand music, recording harmony is much more difficult than recording melody, because he always can't sing it correctly, and after singing it several times, he ran to the melody part.

"With these three songs, you will never have to worry about your commercial performance in the future!"

Li Zhifan smiled and said, "But you have to practice more when you go back. Just listen to these songs in private and remember them in your heart. Although you are cross-border, the quality that singers should have cannot be destroyed, that is, don't lip-sync it."

"Hehe, I understand!"

Chen Guanjun's face turned red. He thought that if he couldn't do it in commercial performances in the future, he would lip-sync. Anyway, he was an actor and had a large number of fans. Even if it was exposed, the public would not condemn him too much.

But he didn't expect that Li Zhifan would point out this matter directly. It was because he had met many monsters in the circle.

Since he was going to attend Zhen Fen's concert, Li Zhifan was naturally prepared for occasions like the first stadium, but there were only one new song, and there were no more.

...

One week later.

"Infernal Affairs 2" has been released 28 days ago, and the national box office has reached 2.5 billion yuan, surpassing the first movie in less than a month.

On this day, Zhen Fen's "Forgotten Time" concert was held at the Beijing Headquarters.

This concert has been well known to everyone in the mainland, because only the capital city and Shanghai Stock Exchange are held in the mainland, and there is only one in the capital city. Although it has 80,000 people, it is still precious.

Logically speaking, Zhen Fen's concert must be attended by older people, but unexpectedly there are many young people. Unlike other celebrity concerts, the young people came with their parents and elders in this concert, and many of them came to experience the almost forgotten singing.

After Li Zhifan and Chen Guanjun arrived at the scene, they went directly to the backstage.

This time Zhen Fen held a concert, and invited a total of five guests. However, except for Li Zhifan and Chen Guanjun, who are young people, the other three are older generation singers.

Some have retired, but they sang some classic songs with Zhen Fen back then, and some are still active in the entertainment industry, but they have long stopped singing and went to make movies.

Li Zhifan and Chen Guanjun shook hands with the three old seniors, but they were all about trivial life, and as for music, they didn't talk a little.

In the eyes of these three old seniors, singing is just a job. They were not art in that era, but stood on the stage for the sake of life. If they became famous, they could enjoy the taste of being sought after. If they couldn’t become famous, they would still sing in various restaurants. Once they had the opportunity to become rich, such as investing in business, or changing careers and making movies, they would immediately leave the singing industry.

The most important thing is that the songs of their era basically covered Japanese pop songs, and several Japanese singers from the same era can be said to have supported the entire Chinese music scene back then.

Li Zhifan and Chen Guanjun can talk to them because they don’t talk about music, but life. Everyone has different perceptions of art, but they always have the same understanding of life.

Young people talk about the pain in their hearts at the moment, and the elderly give guidance, talk about their torture when they were young. The topic unfolds and time passes.

Outside.

With the attention of everyone, the concert kicked off.

Zhen Fen’s song list tonight is divided into three parts. The first part is the "singing songs" from her early years. Singers of their generation like to use "fast-paced songs" to describe this kind of music. Later, this kind of music was qualitative in the music industry, called "retro dance music".

Compared with the popular music styles nowadays, these songs can only be called "slow-paced songs". Rock music took the lead in changing the Chinese music scene, Disco changed the public's perception of music, and finally electronic music changed the world music.

Sometimes young people feel embarrassed when they hear these older generations say "Give a quick song below" but it is a slowly humming dance song, but today on this stage, Zhen Fen's singing does not feel like this.

In order to prepare for this concert, she specially found more than a dozen famous musicians in Xiangjiang to arrange the music in a brand new way.

The songs are still those songs, the lyrics are still those, and the melody has not changed, but the style is completely different from the previous ones.

The accompaniment of pure electric effects and the ethereal reverb are enough to allow the audience to see Zhen Fen chasing the popular heart.

The second part is her classic slow songs, which are still brand new arrangements, and their efforts and efforts are all in the music.

After a few songs, Zhen Fen said: "Today, everyone is here to listen to my singing. Thank you everyone! I saw many viewers bringing their families and children to come. I am very happy that so many people like me. I would like to say thank you again! The following song is today's theme song called "Forgotten Time"!"

Zhen Fen stood on the stage very elegantly and sang the first paragraph:

"Who is knocking on my window, who is pulling the strings!"

"That forgotten time gradually rose from my heart..."

The sound of the piano was slowly laid the foundation, and Zhen Fen also sang slowly calmly and steadily.

After singing this song, Zhen Fen introduced to everyone: "Today is very honored, Li Zhifan will accompany me on the piano!"

As he said that, a beam of light shone out from above the piano, covering Li Zhifan in front of the piano.

The audience who had just listened to the song quietly made a boiling scream at this moment.

Li Zhifan raised his hand and waved it, but did not get up.

At this time, Zhen Fen continued: "Thanks to Zhifan for writing such a good song "Forgotten Time". He also asked me to sing it. At this age, my singing career has been perfect. Then the next song is still written by Zhifan, and it is also a new song. Today is the first song, and you are the first listeners to hear it."

Some of the audience below didn't hear what was said on the stage.

But everyone saw the big screen behind it, with a few lines of words on it:

"No Love"

Lyrics: Li Zhifan

Piano Accompaniment: Li Zhifan

Before I could listen to the song, I only saw the three words Li Zhifan, and the audience was filled with tears of excitement.

Since Li Zhifan entered the film and television industry, the production of songs has decreased, and listening to his new songs has become a luxury for fans.

Although the last album has only been released for a while, fans feel that it seems as long as ten years have passed. In addition, the last album is a rap song, which many fans don’t like. Even if it’s popular, not all of them are about their appetite.

Under the expectations of the audience, Zhen Fen started singing:

"I can't forget, I can't forget, I can't forget your mistake!"

"I can't forget your goodness, I can't forget the walk in the rain!"

"I can't forget the hug in the wind!"

Zhen Fen felt like humming, and every sentence and sound was played very slowly.

It's like tasting a cup of tea and a cup of wine. The long feeling is buried in the years when looking back. The essential thing for singing, such as emotion, is just an auxiliary material for her, and the main material is her voice.

"The lonely alley, now the slanting moon shines brightly!"

"The cold swing is now swaying in the wind!"

"It repeats your advice, one by one, forget! Forgot!"

"It lowly tells me my heart, and it's hard! It's hard!"

Zhen Fen sang softly, like an old beauty who was old, or a woman who lamented the difficulty of life, or an old woman who had seen through everything and enjoyed her life. In her, listeners of every age can taste a variety of different styles.

Just as everyone was intoxicated, a male voice rang:

"If my heart is tired, my tears are dry. This affection is hard to give up!"

"I once had it, I have never seen you anymore, and I have never seen you!"

The style of the music changed instantly, and the male voice sang very modern. Everyone looked at the stage and found that it was Li Zhifan who sang.

These are two songs, "No Love" and "No Love", but they were merged into one by Li Zhifan.
To be continued...
