"Perhaps one day, when I am old and have no one to rely on, please leave me here, in that time!"
"If one day, I leave quietly, please bury me here, In The Spring."
"In The Spring ~"
When Qin Hanyang, the lead singer of The Bionics, finished singing "In The Spring", the whole audience was boiling!
This rock song was originally created by Lu Chen. After being interpreted by The Bionics and Qin Hanyang, it would become a classic. It was circulating in the streets and alleys, in bars, in squares, in underground passages … It was being covered by many singers.
But no matter how wonderful the cover was, it couldn't beat the charm of the original song.
Tonight, a large number of customers gathered in Forget Grass Bar. In addition to regular customers, there were many peers from other bars. Everyone hurried over after receiving the news.
Even if it affected their work and delayed making money, they didn't care.
It was like a pilgrimage!
The people who liked this song the most and were most easily moved by it were not ordinary people who liked pop music, but the singers who drifted around and mingled at the bottom.
Because "In The Spring" sang their experiences, their hearts and desires!
Some people even thought that it was their great luck to be able to hear and sing this song.
So tonight, at Forget Grass Bar, everyone was excited to see The Bionics live and hear Qin Hanyang's performance with their own ears. They wished they could be on the stage.
They had nowhere to vent their emotions, but they expressed them with applause and cheers!
Surging like a tide!
After a few minutes, the bar finally calmed down.
"Thank you!"
Qin Hanyang said to the microphone, "Thank you for coming over tonight and listening to us sing."
"Here, I first want to thank Brother Kenhao, our boss, ChenJianhao, for his consistent support for me and The Bionics. Without him, there would be no The Bionics!"
He raised his fist to ChenJianhao, who was leaning against the bar, and then slammed it on his chest.
Qin Hanyang was expressing his respect.
ChenJianhao raised his glass in return.
The applause sounded again, warm and sincere.
ChenJianhao used 5% of Forget Grass Bar's shares in exchange for the copyright of 'In The Spring' and gave it to The Bionics as a farewell gift. This had already become a legendary story in Houhai.
Now that his name was mentioned, who wouldn't give him a thumbs up and praise him for his righteousness?
Nowadays, many singers are trying their best to get into the Forget Grass Bar, even if it's just a part-time singer!
To be able to keep up with such a boss was a stroke of luck.
Qin Hanyang continued, "Then, I would like to thank our musical genius, Lu Chen. I would like to thank him for writing a good song for The Bionics, a really good song!"
He also clenched his fists and saluted Lu Chen, who was standing at the edge of the stage.
Lu Chen was speechless and returned the greeting with cupped fists.
The applause that had yet to subside became even more intense, setting off a new storm!
Who didn't know how outstanding Lu Chen's talent was? Each of his original works was so outstanding.
It was him who created The Bionics, and now, he himself was walking on the bright avenue of stars.
"Next, let's invite Lu Chen to sing for everyone!"
As soon as Qin Hanyang's voice fell, the atmosphere of the scene instantly reached its climax, and cheers came one after another.
Lu Chen walked onto the stage with a smile on his face.
And at this moment, two waiters pushed out the piano that was placed in the corner of the stage.
Seeing such a scene, everyone was stunned.
Could it be that Lu Chen was going to play the piano?
Whether it was a new customer or an old customer, none of them had ever seen Lu Chen play the piano.
They only heard Lu Chen say, "Today is a very special day …"
"Like Brother Hanyang, I would like to first thank Brother Kenhao, our boss. Thank him for taking me in at the most difficult time of my life and giving me a job that could satisfy my hunger. Thank you!"
He bowed deeply to ChenJianhao to express his gratitude.
The wine in ChenJianhao's glass swayed. He didn't expect that Lu Chen would also play such a trick on him.
The veteran was a little at a loss.
Lu Chen continued, "I would like to thank the old customers who came to the bar tonight. It was your support that kept me going and gave me the courage to work hard. Thank you!"
He bowed to the guests again.
Everyone still applauded. Although the applause was not as fierce as before, it was extremely sincere.
A few sentimental female customers even had tears in their eyes.
Because they knew that it was not easy for Lu Chen to get to where he was today. Many people had seen his hard work.
Lu Chen straightened up again and said, "So, I want to give a song, an original new song, to Brother Kenhao, and to all the friends here. May Forget Worries Bar always be the harbor of our souls."
"The name of this song is Forget Worries Bar. It was written by me, Brother Hanyang, and The Bionics!"
People immediately became excited. No one thought that Lu Chen would actually sing a new work, and it was a collaboration with The Bionics.
Forget Worries Bar!
Lu Chen sat down in front of the piano that had just been set up. He said to the microphone, "I learned the piano to please girls. I didn't want to perform for you, so don't laugh if I don't play well."
Everyone laughed.
The next moment, the soft prelude of the piano sounded, and the scene quieted down in an instant.
Lu Chen's singing immediately drifted into everyone's ears.
"Let us, who are weak, understand cruelty,
Face the coldness of life.
Reluctantly let go of the people we loved,
Often we are not fated to be together.
Who takes who seriously,
Who loves who,
Who is the only one who.
Scarred and innocent souls,
Don't admit that there is any God.
Beautiful life and kind people,
Heartache and sad things,
Too insignificant,
You and I meet coming and going,
It's better to see each other than to know each other.
… … "
In all fairness, Lu Chen's piano level was very ordinary. It was so ordinary that those children who had passed the amateur level four or five could easily beat him. It was completely incomparable to his guitar playing level.
However, this song did not require any complicated piano playing skills. Lu Chen played very seriously and did not play a wrong note. Even if he picked up the piano again a few days ago, he still played the rhythm and melody correctly.
This was enough, because what really moved people was the song itself, and the emotions he integrated into the song.
This was a warm and sentimental work. The whole song started from the initial cruel and sad situation to the final construction of a "poetic" optimistic situation of life – the "Forget Worries Bar" -like life situation, thus completing the process from simple to complex and back to simple.
"… …
Forget Worries Bar, it's good to forget,
How much can be known in dreams.
Some remote corner of the world,
Some small island,
Some year, some month, some day, some hug.
Green river grass,
Quietly waiting for the end of time!
… … "
When Lu Chen finished singing for the first time, Qin Hanyang and The Bionics sang along: "Let us, who are weak, know how to be cruel, and face life's coldness fiercely. Those who have loved reluctantly, are often not fated to be together!"
Their voices were low and powerful, pushing the mood of the song to a new height.
Then Lu Chen continued: "Who takes who seriously, who is distressed for who, who is the only one who …"
Everyone present listened carefully. They smiled, they were moved, and they seemed to understand something.
Life is impermanent, time is ruthless, but we still have music to comfort ourselves!
The whole bar was shrouded in a very special atmosphere.
Until Lu Chen finished singing, no one spoke for a long time.
ChenJianhao was the first to applaud.
Everyone seemed to wake up from a dream and clapped their hands. There were no cheers or whistles, only neat applause.
"Thank you!"
Lu Chen stood up and thanked everyone.
He picked up the microphone on the piano and said, "I will permanently transfer the copyright of this Forget Worries Grass to our bar for free. Consider it a special gift for Brother Kenhao tonight."
The applause became louder and louder.
Lu Chen raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet first. He continued: "I think everyone must feel very strange, right? Then listen to the next song and you will know! "
After plugging in the microphone again, Lu Chen sat down again.
The lights in the bar instantly went out!
Before everyone could exclaim, the sound of the piano sounded again.
Among the exclamations, there was a cry of surprise.
The next moment, the orange candlelight dispelled the darkness, and Sister Na came out from the backstage with a cart.
There was a huge multi-layered cake placed on the frame of the carriage, with colorful candles inserted on it!
"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you …"
No one knew who started it, but everyone sang the happy birthday song in unison with Lu Chen's piano accompaniment.
The cart was pushed in front of ChenJianhao.
Sister Na smiled and said, "Jianhao, happy birthday to you!"
Her smile under the candlelight was beautiful and moving – this kind of beauty had nothing to do with her appearance.
Today was ChenJianhao's 40th birthday.
ChenJianhao was completely stunned.
He finally understood why Lu Chen and the people from The Bionics would come over at night, and why those old customers would be secretive when they saw him.
It turned out that they had colluded long ago.
Today was ChenJianhao's 40th birthday, he himself had forgotten!
But someone remembered.
He stared at Sister Na standing in front of him and said with difficulty, "Thank you, Na Na."
Except for Sister Na, there was no one else.
The tears in her eyes fell instantly. Sister Na smiled and said, "Make a wish and blow out the candles, everyone is waiting!"
ChenJianhao nodded.
He closed his eyes and silently made a wish, then took a deep breath and blew out all the candles!
In the past, ChenJianhao thought this was very childish.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The lights in the bar were all turned on.
Along with the loud cheers, the spray cans were opened one by one, and countless colorful strips were shot into the air. Soon after, they fluttered down, adding to the festive atmosphere of the scene.
Cheerful music sounded, turning the Forget Grass Bar into a sea of joy.
Sleepless night!
