The stage lights gradually brightened, and the prelude, like nimble sprites, gently began.
The first sound to reach the ears was the bright strumming of a guitar, its notes like the first ray of morning sun, playfully weaving through the layers of leaves, dancing and sparkling with a unique vibrancy and liveliness.
Each pluck was crisp and clean, the notes tightly linked, like an eager storyteller joyfully recounting a beautiful tale about to unfold in the river of time, making one lean in to listen, full of anticipation for what would follow.
A brief transition, like a short interlude in a story, passed in an instant.
Immediately after, piano notes, like a gurgling stream, wound their way from afar, gently merging into the music.
The piano and guitar echoed each other, cooperating perfectly; one like a nimble bird, the other like a steady fish, together sketching out the pure and innocent atmosphere of a youth campus.
In an instant, a vivid picture seemed to appear before the listeners' eyes: on the sports field, boys and girls ran and laughed freely, their laughter echoing in the air; along the tree-lined path, couples walked hand in hand, leisurely, leaving behind a trail of sweet footprints.
The light rhythm, like the beating pulse of youth, stirred people's heartstrings again and again, eagerly leading listeners into this romantic invitation carefully woven by song.
Just as the lingering notes of the prelude had not yet faded, Su Yu’s clear singing, along with the song's information, came through distinctly.
“listen to me sing to you”
Lyrics and Music: Su Yu
Vocals: Su Yu, Han Jiangxue
“【listen to me sing to you, while we are young and blooming.
Let the flowers bloom freely, adorning your years and my branches.】”
As soon as the song began, an aura named “youth” wafted over, instantly pervading the entire performance venue.
Everyone couldn't help but feel that Su Yu and Han Jiangxue both exuded a strong sense of youth.
After all, they were in the prime of their youth, still young.
It was precisely for this reason that their rendition of this youthful love song seemed to infuse it with soul, bringing out its greatest charm to the fullest.
On stage, Han Jiangxue smiled brightly, her face, radiant as a flower, gazed at Su Yu with deep affection.
In the next moment, her sweet voice, like a nightingale emerging from a valley, was clear and melodious.
“【Who can replace you, love freely while we are young.
My dearest one, the road is long, let's be together.】”
The lyrics sung by Han Jiangxue were direct and passionate, boldly expressing her feelings.
However, the audience loved this directness immensely.
Watching Su Yu and Han Jiangxue unreservedly display their affection on stage, the audience's faces unconsciously showed doting auntie smiles.
“【I sing myself to you, give me your pure and innocent smile.
We should have happy, joyful, clear times.
I sing myself to you, can I move you with my fervent emotions, years are worth remembering and cherishing, shy red faces...】”
When the chorus, sung as a duet, gently floated through, its joyful and sweet melody, like a warm current, flowed into the hearts of every listener.
The auntie smiles on the audience's faces grew even more pronounced, almost impossible to suppress.
It must be said, this song was truly too sweet, so sweet that one's heart felt as if it were steeped in a honey pot.
Moreover, and more importantly, the difficulty of singing this song was not high; ordinary listeners could fully showcase their singing in KTV, enjoying this youthful sweetness to their heart's content!
The second show of Su Yu's Blue Star World Tour at Yanjing Bird's Nest concluded after Su Yu and Han Jiangxue's duet of “listen to me sing to you.”
This time, there weren't tens of thousands of people shouting “encore” to prevent Su Yu from leaving.
The truth was, Su Yu had already stated at the beginning that his concert did not include this segment!
And he had been singing from 7 PM until 10 PM now.
To keep Su Yu any longer would truly be a bit ungracious.
Su Yu was also human, not a beast.
It was impossible for him to keep singing indefinitely...
After the concert ended, Su Yu did not go homecoming directly but instead took a group of his friends, both domestic and international, who had come to support him, out for a late-night snack.
People like Robert and Kerry had stayed for two consecutive days, whether it was to curry favor with Su Yu or to attend his concert.
Since they had stayed in China because of Su Yu, Su Yu, as the host, naturally had to fulfill his duties as a host.
Also joining the late-night snack were several lyricists and composers, as well as musicians from Tianxing Entertainment.
Everyone at Tianxing Entertainment was very dedicated, and they knew more than just one or two foreign languages.
Although their fluency might not be perfect, simple communication was certainly possible.
This made the lyricists and composers even more astonished.
They had thought that these singers had simply learned a foreign song.
Who would have thought that they had even learned the languages?
This truly left them no choice but to be impressed.
Compared to these singers from Tianxing Entertainment, the local singers they had previously chosen were truly weak!
“Director Su, I feel like I can sing, can't I?” After a few rounds of drinks, Kerry, feeling a bit tipsy, asked.
These past two days, watching Su Yu shine on stage, he felt extremely envious.
A concert venue with 100,000 people, such a grand spectacle, was truly rare to witness.
If he could also step onto such a stage, how incredibly cool would that be!
Su Yu glanced at Kerry: “Do you want to exhaust the audio engineer? You'd better stick to acting.”
Su Yu had indeed heard Kerry sing before, and it was truly not just ordinarily unlistenable.
“By the way, I recently had a pretty good script idea, and I plan to cast you as the lead, Kerry, do you have any pets?”
Seeing Kerry’s distressed expression, Su Yu continued.
And his words made everyone present prick up their ears!
Su Yu's reputation in the film industry was also immense; in Hollywood, a place that only cared about box office, Su Yu was undoubtedly the hottest filmmaker.
And after “this man comes from blue star,” they knew Su Yu was about to collaborate with Robert on “murder on the orient express.”
Now he had another script idea? And planned to collaborate with Kerry? This couldn't help but make them interested.
But what did the new script idea have to do with whether Kerry owned a pet or not?
Kerry was also stunned for a moment, but his heart was filled with an uncontrollable surprise.
Director Su really hadn't forgotten him!
Did he feel that since Kerry didn't get to play Poirot in “murder on the orient express,” he came up with another script to compensate him?
He was truly touched!
“Yes, I have a Labrador at home, I’ve had it for five or six years.”
Although he didn't know why Su Yu was asking, he still answered truthfully.
“Do you have a photo? Let me see.” Su Yu’s words made everyone even more confused.
