Chapter 22 From the Year of the Snake to the Year of the Snake
On January 1, 2003 (the lunar calendar is still the year of the snake), Huo Feng recorded two more songs for Zuo. The first one was one of Chopin's works No. 64 (minutewaltzop.64/1, the famous "Puppy Waltzop" in D-flat major), and the second one was "Happy Birthday Song".
After receiving the gift, Zuo Zai posted two opinions on QQ: "I am not a dog, why do you give me "Puppy Waltz"? But for the sake of the happy birthday song, I will forgive you~"
Zuo Zai's number of artistic cells is zero, but he still has a little ability to appreciate other people's art. When he heard the "Puppy Waltz" recorded by "Goodbye Chopin", he seemed to be able to see Huo Feng's fingers slide quickly and gently on the black and white keys.
"Happy Birthday Song" is even more unsatisfactory because Huo Feng added various complex chords, which made the taste of Chopin unjustly, and it was a pleasant puppy waltz style. Zuo Zai was actually very satisfied with this birthday gift. She said she was not satisfied, and she completely hoped that she would give her more songs.
On January 10, 2003, Huo Feng received the "Morning of the Forest" sent by Zuo Zai. In 2003, Beijing had not started to detect pm2.5, but the air quality should be different from now on. Before Huo Feng lit the candle, he was almost scared by the candle that was stylisted, as if he had been flattened and rubbed again. The candle was written with a crooked character Wang in some strange position. Zuo Zai sent the thing better this time than last year, and left a small note with three ugly words written on it - Diandian.
Huo Feng obediently placed Forest Morning, and found out that Zuo Zai's gift was not only ugly. However, such an ugly gift could be given, which is a skill. In fact, Zuo Zai's Forest Morning aromatherapy candle has been on the market in the United States and Europe, with exquisite packaging and not cheap prices. But for the real Forest Morning, Zuo Zai only gave Huo Feng this one.
When it comes to packaging, we must mention the mass-produced Forest Morning packaging. The outer packaging is pure white. A reduced version of the oak tree covered by heavy snow is the type of oak in the Normandy forest. Open the snow-white outer packaging and you can see the original color of the oak. There is a door on one side of the oak. When the door is opened, you can bring the aromatic candle out of the inside.
The designer of this packaging is Cheng Lie. Cheng Lie majored in architectural design and minored in management. He is a good-looking design giant. Cheng Fengchun forced him to come back to the spice group at home to do things he didn't want to do.
It was not until the group's scented candle business that Cheng Lie found his place of use and took care of all the packaging and design work for the subsequent scented candles.
However, the candles that Zuo Zai gave to Huo Feng have never used decent packaging. Zuo Zai's principle of giving gifts to Huo Feng is very simple. Every year she will copy the most impressive taste. After completing the satisfactory sample, she will keep one as Huo Feng's birthday gift for the second year. Some of these recipes are recorded and mass-produced, while others do not.
On January 1, 2004, Zuo received two more songs. The first one was Chopin's Chopin's No. 1 Scherzo No. 1 inbminor, op. 20), and the second one was still "Happy Birthday Song".
When he gave Zuo Zai a birthday song to him, Zuo Zai gave him the morning of the forest, Huo Feng felt that he was already old friends with Zuo Zai, and he suddenly couldn't ask those very vulgar questions.
The two of them missed it so gorgeously, day after day, year after year.
In 2004, something happened in business. Cheng Fengchun decided to let the aromatherapy candle business be independent from the fragrance group and set up a company specializing in the production and sale of aromatherapy candles. Zuo Ran holds 10% of the shares and is responsible for perfume. Because Zuo Ran is underage, Zuo Jianshe will be held by Zuo Jianshe, Zuo Jianshe will hold 20% of the shares and is responsible for production. Cheng Fengchun will be responsible for all other matters besides production.
Apart from specifying Zuo's shareholding ratio, the new company is actually no different from the original cooperation. But Zuo Zai discovered that this is his own company and the speed of researching formulas is much faster than before.
The main business of the new company is still in Europe and the United States. Cheng Fengchun asked Zuo to give the company a name, Zuo thought about it and named it windle. This word was created by Zuo Ai. It is pronounced the same as window (window), which is a combination of win (win) and candle (candle), and can also be regarded as a combination of window (window) and candle (candle).
Cheng Fengchun was talking to Zuo Zai, and he had already planned to hire a professional public relations company to be responsible for naming and completing visual communication design. The name Zuo Zai casually gave Cheng Fengchun very satisfied. He felt that there was no need to find someone to name it, just ask someone to design the font or something.
When Cheng Lie saw Zuo's name, he said that the logo design could be given to him. While he was speaking, Cheng Fengchun happily finalized the naming and design matters before he even had time to find a public relations company.
On January 1, 2005, Zuo Zai received 12 etudes from Chopin, the 25-a minor tune, the 11th song "Winterwind" (12etudes, op.25-no.11inaminor, "winterwind") and "Happy Birthday Song". Zuo Zai said that the speed was too fast and it was easy to fall asleep at night after listening to it.
On January 10, 2006, Huo Feng received the "Amazon Rainy Night" sent by Zuo Zai.
On January 1, 2007, Zuo Zai received Nocturne No. 5 in F Major, Works 15, No. 2 (nocturneno.5inf-sharpmajor, op.15no.2) and "Happy Birthday Song". Zuo Zai said that the beginning speed was too slow, and it was easy to fall asleep everywhere after listening to it.
On January 10, 2008, Huo Feng received the "wheat cake" sent by Zuo Zai.
On January 1, 2009, Zuo Zai received Scherzo No. 4 in e major, work 54 (scherzono.4inemajor, op.54). Zuo Zai said that he liked the recording this time very much.
Huo Feng has already understood one thing. Zuo Zai is a fan of Chopin's scherzo. As long as it is a scherzo, he can receive very favorite comments. Every year since then, Huo Feng gave a scherzo song by Chopin, and then he adapted himself "Happy Birthday Song".
On January 10, 2010, Huo Feng received the "Hometown of Chopin" sent by Zuo Zai.
On January 1, 2011, Zuo Zai received the No. 3 Scherzo in C minor, work 39 (scherzono.3inc-sharpminor, op.39) and "Happy Birthday Song". Zuo Zai said that Huo Feng is getting more and more aware of what he likes, and it would be even better if he could record a video of playing the piano.
On January 10, 2012, Huo Feng received the "fried screws" sent by Zuo Zai.
On January 1, 2013, Zuo Zai received the third piano sonata in B minor, the second movement of work 58 (pianosonatano.3inbminor, op.58), the Scherzo-very lively (ii.scherzo-moltovivace) and the video of "Happy Birthday Song".
This time, Zuo Zai saw the long fingers of goodbye Chopin running freely and happily on the black and white keys. She was very, very satisfied.
For the past twelve years, Zuo Zai and Huo Feng have maintained a very strange pace of contacting each other two or three times a year. Two of them must be at the beginning of January every year, on the other party’s birthday.
From the birthday of the previous year to the birthday of the second year, for a whole year, when Zuo Zai was happy, he would broadcast Chopin and "Happy Birthday Song" given to her by Huo Feng. After listening to it, he felt even happier. When Huo Feng was unhappy, he would light the scented candle that Zuo Zai gave, which didn't take long. In just a few minutes, Huo Feng forgot about his unhappiness.
Zuo's two songs can be listened to for a year, and Huo Feng's candle can also be lit for a year.
