After singing "Rooftop", the audience cheered and asked them to sing another song, but Du Dong did not agree. The song just now had already consumed his lifelong skills.
After Yu Dong retreated, Cheng Yanqiu played "Jinghong", which again won applause from the whole hall.
Yu Dong's coming over tonight was a big sacrifice, but he also gained a lot. One song and one piano piece directly promoted a TV series and a movie for Deep Space.
When they arrived, the two of them walked in directly, but when they left, they needed to be protected by security personnel at the concert site.
…
It was Yu Dong's own idea to go to Yu Nesbo's concert, but Jimmy, who had already gone back to New York at noon the next day, called Yu Dong.
Yu Dong and Cheng Yanqiu had just returned to the room after lunch. As soon as the phone was connected, Jimmy's complaining voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Brother, can you discuss it with me every time before you do something?"
"What's wrong?"
"You asked me what happened? I also want to ask you what happened. You are on the news, and you are on many websites. Yes, that's right, you are on the news every day, but this is your first time in the music and entertainment section."
Yu Dong smiled and said: "Oh, it happened last night. Your news in the United States is really efficient. How long has it been before the news has come out?"
"It will be faster than you can imagine. I guess there will be a TV station broadcasting news about you two tonight."
Cheng Yanqiu was making tea when he heard Yu Dong talking on the phone and asked, "What's wrong?"
Hearing Cheng Yanqiu's voice, Jimmy said to Yu Dong: "Turn on the speakerphone."
Yu Dong nodded and turned on the speakerphone.
Jimmy on the opposite side said: "Mr. Cheng, I watched the news. When it comes to your singing, it's basically all praise. Unlike some people, you are the target of ridicule."
Yu Dong raised his eyebrows, "Don't be yin and yang."
"You still use my yin and yang? Don't you know your own singing level? I just can't figure it out. How can you have the nerve to sing on stage? In Jinyi, you played piano on stage before. I thought that was the bottom line for being shameless.
I didn’t expect the bottom line to be even lower.”
"Jimmy, just say what you say, and don't make personal attacks. I couldn't have done anything last night, but that guy Nesbo had to drag me up. Besides, I'm a writer, and I'm afraid that others will say my singing is ugly.
What?"
"You also have a good attitude." Jimmy complained, and then suddenly laughed again, "Hey, I don't know whether I should say that you have a good life, but for your singing level, there are actually some people who praise you. "New York Music"
In the news section, professional music critic Landry commented that your singing was very emotional, and also praised that your chorus better explained the meaning of music. I guess he was just looking at the dishes. You are a great writer.
Well, let me give you some face."
Yu Dong immediately retorted, "Nonsense, he is a professional music critic, and everything he says is based on his professional foundation. How could he make an unintentional evaluation because of my status and title?"
"Oh, but there are also people who scold you. Kessel, the columnist of "First Music", accused you of saying that you should not appear on the music stage, lowering the professional level, and polluting the audience's ears. He actually praised Teacher Cheng.
Go to heaven, but I think he praised Teacher Cheng to heaven just to bring you down to earth. Finally, he also warned you not to think about going to the music industry to dominate just because you have written a few popular books.
If you wish, he will take the lead in resisting you."
"Ahem, it seems that not all professional music critics are qualified."
Jimmy laughed, "Haha, I just like your double standard. Don't worry, the trend of the news is generally good. Let's not talk about your singing level. No matter how others criticize it, it will always be like that. A dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.
Hot, the good thing is that they started to become interested in Teacher Cheng, "Rooftop" and "Jinghong". But in the future, you should do less of this kind of thing, not to mention that it will affect your style as a great writer, your singing voice will only be heard once
That’s enough. I can’t bear to hear too much. If Teacher Cheng hadn’t guided me well this time, you would have finished.”
Cheng Yanqiu said with a smile: "He has practiced this song many times, and he sang it beautifully last night."
Jimmy sighed: "This kind of love not only makes people fascinated, but also causes hearing problems. Teacher Cheng, you can't say such unconscionable things just because he is your husband."
"I really think what he sang last night was beautiful."
"Look, you even have a Shanghainese accent when you speak now."
Cheng Yanqiu was confused, "Really? Is this a Shanghu accent?"
"Listen to his nonsense, I don't even have a Shanghainese accent myself." Yu Dong curled his lips, "Jimmy, don't worry, even if you ask me to sing on stage in the future, I won't do it anymore. I sang a song on stage last night, and it felt like
It’s more tiring than writing a novel.”
Yu Dong was not exaggerating. He was very nervous when he sang last night, especially the first half.
It's not because of stage fright, but because he has been concentrating on listening to the accompaniment. His level is not high, and he has no earphones, so others are confused during the whole singing process.
He couldn't hear his own voice at all, and he didn't know how well he sang.
To him, the scene last night was comparable to a battlefield under heavy artillery fire.
"I told you to leave Xiao Yuzi alone before. It's you who insists on joining in the fun."
"I originally wanted to go over and have a look, but who knew I would be dragged in. But this kind of news doesn't attract too many people's attention. It should be gone in the next two days."
Jimmy said with a smile: "My goodness, you underestimate yourself too much, and you underestimate me too."
"What, you still want to cause trouble?"
"Don't worry about what's going on. You can do some autograph signings these two days. Don't forget the premiere of "The Butterfly Effect". We'll watch it together in New York then."
"no problem."
…
After hanging up the phone, Cheng Yanqiu asked curiously: "Listen to Jimmy, what else does he want to do?"
"He will definitely do something, and I'm not surprised at all. Let's not talk about "Rooftop". After all, "Stars and Moon" will not meet American audiences for the time being. If he wants to do something, he should focus on it.
On top of "Jing Hong". Because "The Pianist" will be released in November this year, the box office is not expected, but the reputation of this movie must be achieved."
Cheng Yanqiu pouted, "Actually, I think "Rooftop" can also be promoted. Don't always think that it is the theme song of "Stars and Moon". Regardless of the name, it is also a very high-quality song."
The most important thing about the Chinese duet repertoire is that it is very catchy. If it can be promoted, it will be very helpful for our country's music to enter the European and American markets."
Yu Dong looked at Cheng Yanqiu and said with a smile: "You have already considered these things now, more than I have."
Cheng Yanqiu turned his head and smiled and said: "Being with you every day will always have some influence. Anyway, I feel that if Americans can really be interested in this song this time, we should work hard to promote it. If the effect is good
, when Xiao Zhou and the others come over to perform, there will be a chorus underneath."
"Yeah, but I think this song will definitely become popular in China first."
"Is it?"
"Just wait and see."
…
Yu Dong's guess was not false at all. On the third day after the incident, the news was still brewing in the United States, but it had already become popular in China.
On the morning of August 21st, Yu Hansheng got up early and ran to the living room to turn on the TV.
In summer, when the sun rises early, he is used to watching CCTV's "Eastern Time" before having breakfast at eight o'clock every morning.
The child's mother usually gets up at 7:30 and has dinner on time at 8 o'clock, so Yu Hansheng will turn down the TV volume to a very low level.
"Eastern Time and Space" started airing at seven o'clock. After watching it for half an hour, Qin Fang got up.
Yu Hansheng turned to look at his wife and said to himself that his wife's biological clock is really accurate. She wakes up at half past seven every day. She doesn't need an alarm clock, but she can get up on time. The error never exceeds three minutes.
Qin Fang ran to wash up, and Yu Hansheng turned up the TV volume.
Not long after the voice was turned up, a familiar name suddenly appeared in the host's mouth. No, there should be two.
"At 8:30 pm on August 17, local time in Los Angeles, the well-known writer Yu Dong and his wife Cheng Yanqiu attended the solo concert of Norwegian rock star Yo Nesbo."
"The Yu Dong couple who arrived temporarily were warmly invited to the stage by the rock star and presented a soulful and touching duet love song "Rooftop" to the audience, which ignited the hearts of nearly 20,000 spectators at the scene..."
Hearing the names of his son and daughter-in-law, Yu Hansheng quickly shouted to the bathroom: "Qin Fang, come and have a look, come and have a look."
Qin Fang rolled her eyes in the bathroom, "What are you shouting about after watching the news, World War III?"
"What a world war, our son is going to sing."
"Sing?"
Qin Fang suddenly ran out with her toothbrush in hand, "Who are you singing with?"
"With my daughter-in-law."
With your daughter-in-law?
Of course Qin Fang knows that Cheng Yanqiu sings well. When she meets relatives and friends now, after showing off her son, she shows off her daughter-in-law. She tells people every day that her daughter-in-law sings better than those singers and looks better than celebrities.
At this moment, the news introduction has just ended, and footage of the concert scene has begun to be played.
The picture is very clear and was taken by the authorities.
On the stage, the prelude has just started.
The old couple stared at the screen. They wanted to see if their son would be able to sing normally after running away to the United States.
However, the accident did not happen.
Yu Dong entered directly late for the first time.
"Ouch!"
Seeing that Yu Dongjin was late, Qin Fang suddenly covered her face.
Shame on you!
Although there was no one else next to her, seeing this scene still made her feel embarrassed.
Not only was it embarrassing, it was also exposed to CCTV.
This is CCTV, and everyone in China will see it. Although "Eastern Time" airs early, it still airs reruns.
After covering her face for a while, Qin Fang let go of one hand and looked at the TV with one eye. Yu Dong finally succeeded in singing.
Qin Fang couldn't help but murmured, "Although my son's singing is average, he is still very photogenic and good-looking. Our family, Luo Luo, is much prettier than celebrities."
After Cheng Yanqiu started singing, Qin Fang kept praising: "It's nice, it's nice. What Luoluo sings in our family is just nice. This song is also nice. I thought it was a singing problem when my son sang it just now. I didn't expect this song."
It sounds so good. It's a pity, it's a pity that my son has inherited it from you. This singing is too unpleasant."
Yu Hansheng pursed his lips: "Oh, that's right. If your son writes novels well, he inherited it from you. If he doesn't sing well, does he inherit it from me?"
"I have wronged you. You can listen to singing, but you can't. If you sing a few lines now, you might not be able to sing as well as your son."
When it comes to singing, Yu Hansheng really doesn't have the confidence, "Oh, what are you arguing about? Just watch TV and watch your son and daughter-in-law sing. This is CCTV, it's a set!"
The entire "Eastern Time and Space" is only one hour in total, and the commercial time has to be removed, but this morning I spent a full eight minutes reporting on Yu Dong and Cheng Yanqiu singing on stage.
After the song ended, the host briefly introduced the purpose of Yu Dong's trip to the United States and the origin of the song "Rooftop".
"Yu Dong is currently holding a book signing tour in the United States. The previous one was in Chicago. It is reported that the total was at the Amazon Bookstore on Michigan Avenue that day..."
"This song "Rooftop" is a new song. This performance at the Hollywood Bowl is also the first public performance of this song. It comes from a TV series that is being filmed..."
After watching the news, Qin Fang couldn't help but call her in-laws, telling them about the incident and asking them to watch the replay.
…
In fact, Cheng Liye and the others did not need to watch the rebroadcast of "Eastern Time and Space" because other TV stations reported the news that night.
In the following days, TV stations made relevant reports, and the content of the news became longer and longer, with more and more introductions.
In the past few days, people have not only appreciated the beauty of Cheng Yanqiu's singing, but also witnessed the lethality of Yu Dong's singing.
The non-stop news coverage was like one public execution after another.
And this news directly detonated deep space, and related posts have long been filled with the entire website.
