【New Red Mansion】Perfect World

Chapter 318: The warm sun shines on the fence, and the shadows of chrysanthemums dance in my dream

Fourth performance.16:30

This performance was like a fusion of different talents, with all the bands focusing on the stage performance, as if it was their first time on stage, showing off all the stage forms they could think of, or their favorite ones.

Some of the highlights are: the reggae music performed by Fatty and his band, the a cappella part of the song was specially designed, replacing the instrument as an interlude. The whole song first took the overtaking lane and then turned at high speed, with rich layers leading the audience to fly over the clouds and then fly down the clouds!

Feng Ziying's band's performances were becoming more mature, and Feng Ziying didn't seem to care whether it was a competition or not. He interacted with the audience like a peacock, desperately showing off his newly learned singing skills, constantly showing off his skills in several high notes, and the band's coordination was also very high. He was having fun anyway, treating this competition as a performance on the stage of a live house.

The last two programs before the performance were a presentation of new songs by Lin Pin'er and her band.

On the stage, the lights were like surging waves, illuminating the entire space as bright as day.

Drummer Dalulu's cheeks were slightly red from the effort, and her hair was flying with the drum beats. Her arm muscles were tense, and the drumsticks in her hands were like smart spirits, jumping and hitting on the drum surface. Every time they fell, they made a soul-shaking sound. The drum beats were like dense gunfire, instantly igniting the atmosphere on the scene.

Xie Yaning, the bassist and lead singer, moves her slender fingers flexibly on the bass strings. Her magnetic voice bursts out from the depth of her throat, interweaving with the heavy tone of the bass.

Nini, the keyboard player, stares at the piano keys with her eyes fixed, her ten fingers quickly shuttling between the black and white keys, and strings of lively notes pour out.

They were immersed in the music, their bodies swaying naturally with the rhythm, and they poured out their sweat and passion on the stage. Every glance and every tacit cooperation showed the freedom, unrestrainedness and passion of rock music to the fullest.

After the excitement, the stage of extreme aesthetics came. The stage design took some time to prepare. When the stage lights turned from dark to bright again, the background picture was displayed in the form of an ink painting. The painting was not a landscape or a person, but a budding chrysanthemum.

Lin Pin'er's new song "Chrysanthemum Dream" is mainly played with Chinese and Western instruments, supplemented by poetry singing. The song focuses on music and lightly sings. The first half of the song uses the poem Lin Pin'er wrote at the crab feast in her previous life:

"I had a clear sleep by the fence in autumn, and the clouds and the moon were indistinguishable.

I am not ascending to heaven to emulate Zhuangzi’s butterfly, but to reminisce about the past and seek Tao Yuanming’s alliance.

I fell asleep lingeringly as the wild geese left, and was startled awake by the chirping of crickets.

When I wake up, who can I tell my sorrow to? The withered grass and cold smoke are full of infinite love. "

Lin Pin'er wore a moon-white brocade dress, with her hair tied up loosely behind her head, and a few strands of hair falling on her fair neck, like a fairy from a painting. She sat quietly in front of the guqin, and her jade fingers lightly touched the seven strings. Her fingertips moved flexibly, sometimes stroking, sometimes picking, and the strings made a clear sound under her plucking, like a clear spring in the mountains, or like an autumn breeze blowing through the chrysanthemum bushes, with a hint of sadness, slowly outlining the quiet dream in "Chrysanthemum Dream".

On the side, Nina was graceful, wearing a yellow silk dress, holding a silver flute. She closed her eyes slightly, opened her red lips, and played the flute melodiously, like the singing of a nightingale. The flute and the guqin intertwined, sometimes high, sometimes low, circling and reverberating above the stage, adding a bit of ethereal charm to the music, as if it was the misty clouds in a dream, leading everyone into a dreamlike state.

Bobo is wearing a rose-red brocade cheongsam, sitting upright with her pipa in her arms. Her fingers dance flexibly on the strings, rolling and sweeping the strings in one go, and the sound of the pipa is crisp and pleasant, like large and small pearls falling on a jade plate. The brisk rhythm is like chrysanthemums swaying in the autumn wind, full of vitality and vigor, and it complements the sounds of the guqin and flute, making the music more layered.

Mo Yunshu was wearing a black dress, with a calm expression. The cello in her hand produced a deep and mellow sound as she played it. The sound of the cello was like an undercurrent, flowing slowly under the melody of other instruments, laying a deep tone for the whole piece, just like the unspeakable emotion in a dream, deep and strong.

Dou Kou, wearing a light green Hanfu, sits elegantly and plays the zhongruan attentively. Her technique is skillful, and the unique timbre of the zhongruan is soft and warm, like a breeze blowing gently. The delicate notes blend perfectly with other instruments, adding a different color to the music, just like those gentle and beautiful memories in the chrysanthemum dream.

The five performers played in perfect harmony, and could read each other's minds through their eyes. They were immersed in the melody of "Chrysanthemum Dream", and perfectly presented the poetic and sad dream written by Lin Pin'er to the audience through music. The audience in the audience was also intoxicated by it, as if they were in a dream of a sea of ​​chrysanthemums, feeling the dreamlike beauty of traditional Chinese style.

The interesting turn comes in the second half of the song, when Lin Pin'er changes the lyrics to a new one, deliberately making a comparison with the poems from hundreds of years ago. When the new poem is sung, the colors of the entire stage become brighter, and even the budding chrysanthemums bloom in an instant.

"The warm sun shines on the east side of the fence, and the shadows of chrysanthemums dance in my dreams.

The pink stamens swaying in the wind attract butterflies, and the golden petals blooming intoxicate the breeze.

I often think of the elegant rhythm dancing with the clouds, and my deep thoughts blending with the sun.

After waking up, the fragrance still lingers, and the sunset glow makes the meaning endless. "

Lin Pin'er used a very strong contrast in the performance of this song. She seemed to want to break through the constraints and shackles and say goodbye to the sentimental self. She dressed in ancient costume today to make herself no longer afraid. Before, she was always afraid that others would say she was classically beautiful and that she was different from the people in this world.

But now she deliberately brought out the things she cared about before for comparison, as if to say: Whether you like the original me or the current me, I can accept it.

After her perseverance, she gained a carefree attitude, and after this performance she will be different from before.

When Wang Xifeng heard that Lin Pin'er seemed to be tired of eating takeout, she specially invited the chef from the previous garden to come and prepare home-cooked meals according to Lin Pin'er's previous taste and sent them to her.

Of course, we can’t just make it for Lin Pin’er. Knowing that she has made a lot of friends, we specially prepared enough for dozens of people.

It was still delivered in a food box that could keep the food warm. Yin Yue helped deliver it to the restaurant. Wang Xifeng also prepared two vegetarian meals and sent them to Su Miaoyu, saying only that they were arranged by Lin Pin'er.
