All-rounder Artist

He has always maintained that idea.

The fun of interpretation lies in the deliberate omission of the real intentions by the ones involved. Unless necessary, Lin Yuan doesn’t plan to spoil this fun for everyone.

Moreover, making two lyrics for the melody of “Ten Years” has made him realise something.

If the melody of a song is liked by the masses, their enthusiasm for discussing the lyrics is also high.

Certain classic lyrics will be remembered for a long time. Some even leave a deeper impression in the public memory than the song itself.

Like the most well-known lyrics from “Red Rose”, “What is unreachable always causes unrest; the favored ones are always fearless.”

It’s understandable for those who like the song to like these lyrics as well.

Even many who are not particularly interested in the song find the lyrics compelling, which is quite impressive.

After having two lyrics for one melody of “Ten Years”, now it’s time to release “White Rose” along with the classic Mandarin lyrics. The timing, place and people are perfect!

It’s worth noting that the lyrics for “Red Rose” and “White Rose” are both inspired by a novel.

As mentioned earlier, the novel was “Red Rose and White Rose,” a representative work by Ailing Zhang.

The novel has a famous quote in it: “Every man has two women, at least two. Marrying a red rose, over time, the red turns into a smudge of mosquito blood on the wall, white still remains ‘the moonlight in one’s heart’. But if you marry a white rose, the white soon becomes a grain of rice stuck on a shirt, but the red becomes a cinnabar mole in one’s heart.”

When evaluating men’s nature, many people have quoted this phrase.

As a result of this phrase, the novel was once incredibly popular in the Celestial Dynasty.

Lin Yuan even considered having Chu Kuang write “Red Rose and White Rose”, but considering the different era and the potential lack of interest of today’s readers. Plus, he isn’t particularly fond of some characteristics of Ailing Zhang, so he dropped the idea.

After all, not all novels can be published without a sense of discrepancy.

Just like, with “Zhu Xian” around, Lin Yuan couldn’t possibly write another “Shushan Swordsman”.

The essence of the novel can be demonstrated by “Red Rose” and “White Rose” alone.

Chu Kuang has already released a calligraphic piece of “A Tranquil Night Abed”.

So that when the public sees “moonlight in his heart”, they don’t need to search too hard for the source. It’s a special collaboration between Xian Yu and Chu Kuang.

This is the part where “people” work perfectly with timing and location.

Yes.

Lin Yuan plans to reveal the main idea of this novel with the release of “White Rose”, combined with the lyrics and connotations of these two songs, to help more people understand these two songs.

Because compared to the Mandarin version of “Red Rose”, the lyrics of “White Rose” are relatively oblique.

It definitely isn’t as straightforward as “Red Sun”—a Qi language song, but universally understood at the sight of the lyrics.

The next day.

Sun Yaohuo came to the company, his first words were, “How’s your tooth, junior? If it still hurts, I know a good dentist who can help.”

“No need, it’s almost better.”

Lin Yuan said, “I called you in today to record a song for October. This time, it’s the Qi language version of ‘Red Rose’.”

“The Qi language version?”

“Yes. This version is called ‘White Rose’. Here are the lyrics, and an explanation of the lyrics, as well as the relationship between the two songs.”

“Great!”

Sun Yaohuo took over the printouts from Lin Yuan, “With your song, I’m sure I can make it to the top tier!”

No one knew how eager and desirous Sun Yaohuo was to become a first-tier artist!

On receiving “White Rose”, even without seeing the lyrics, Sun Yaohuo was full of confidence.

He was too motivated.

On the familiar melody, Sun Yaohuo memorized the lyrics of “White Rose” by heart within a day!

Then came the recording.

Just like the recording of “Next Year, Today”.

Although Sun Yaohuo was very familiar with the melody of “White Rose” and had learned the lyrics by heart, capturing the emotional essence was still a major challenge.

Because the two songs express completely different states of mind, even entirely different lives!

This contrast was bigger than how “Next Year, Today” contrasted with “Ten Years”.

Just by listening to Eason Chan singing these two songs, one can sense their differences, which are all-encompassing. Sun Yaohuo had to grasp these feelings accurately to express them through his singing.

This caused a deadlock in the recording.

During the recording of “White Rose”, the company also released publicity about the song.

Blogs, major forums, everywhere.

News like “A Masterpiece by Xian Yu, new song by Sun Yaohuo to be released in October” appeared in many places.

Swish!

The debate about the two lyrics for “Ten Years” hadn’t yet concluded. And suddenly, this news drew the attention of the entire music scene!

Instantly!

Many musicians who were planning to release new songs in October were shocked. Especially those who were hoping to win the seasonal championship, suddenly felt the earth spinning, legs trembling!

“Damn!”

“He’s back again?”

“Xian Yu in October?”

“I was planning to release my song in October!”

“Forget it, I am asking my company to change the release date.”

“I’m out!”

“I can’t afford to provoke this. I am out.”

“Looks like Xian Yu plans to make Sun Yaohuo a hit all at once. I’m out too!”

“Wow, Sun Yaohuo must’ve saved the Milky Way in his past life!”

“Ahhhh! Will someone neutralize this amazing Xian Yu, please? If he keeps producing, should I even release my songs?”

“Xian Yu didn’t produce anything for over half a year and now, he can’t stop?”

“Sun Yaohuo is set to become a sensation!”

“Can there be a singer in this world that Xian Yu couldn’t make successful if he wanted to? I may need to cancel my October release plan. If I can’t mess with him, I’d better find a way to avoid him.”

“…”

Even the super-confident musicians eyeing the October season chart, even the top-tier ones, were thinking of retreating after seeing this news.

Keep in mind, Sun Yaohuo is not what he used to be.

Although not a top-tier artist, he has already got one foot in the door.

Plus, with Xian Yu’s help and the bonus of two lyrics for “Ten Years”, this is certainly not something every artist can compete with, except perhaps the maestro or the “King of Singing”.

However, the maestro and “King of Singing” are busy preparing for the Clash of Gods in December, who has time to care about the October music scene?

This has created a scenario where Xian Yu reigns supreme!

As a few top-tier singers become unsure, something that leaves countless netizens dumbfounded happens!
