Chapter 134 Freedom is the Direction!



Chapter 134 Freedom is the Direction!

Lin Fan's songs have been boycotted and even slandered by many students' fans. Even his personal experiences have been subjected to cyberbullying, with accusations that he is deliberately creating hype and building a persona. Although many casual listeners like Lin Fan because of his songs, many others find the arguments annoying and dislike him.

There may be no such thing as liking someone without a reason in this world, but there really are cases of disliking someone without a reason.

What makes Wang Lingli feel gratified is that Lin Fan was not affected by these negative people and things, but continued to move towards his established goal step by step, expressing his attitude with one excellent original song after another.

Wang Lingli stopped paying attention to the comments under Lin Fan's Weibo account and instead focused on listening to Lin Fan's new song.

Even though the performance environment was very ordinary and the recording of the short video was very rough, the picture quality was also very poor. Chen Xianwu is not that poor, is he? He can't afford a decent phone that can record short videos stably, right?

Check out the ultra-stable micro-gimbal.

That's a bit of a tangent, let's get back to it!

Although the visual experience was rather ordinary, it didn't stop Wang Lingli from enjoying this auditory feast!

Yes, an auditory feast!

It wasn't just Lin Fan's fans like Wang Lingli who were clicking on that short video to listen to Lin Fan's new song; many musicians, many managers of Lin Fan's management companies, and many listeners who simply liked Lin Fan's songs were also listening to the song.

The accompaniment-only singing relies heavily on the singer's vocal quality and singing skills, both of which Lin Fan possesses. In addition, the system's divine skill, [Emotional Delicacy], allows listeners to enjoy an auditory feast comparable to a studio recording even in such a rough short video!

Not to mention, the song conveys a romantic, youthful, and fearless emotion of youth, striving, and running towards dreams with all one's might.

It's inspiring without being overly pessimistic, encouraging without being stubborn, and guiding without being preachy—it's just what modern young people want!

And this is only the verse; the chorus hasn't even started yet! Keep listening!

Suddenly, Lin Fan's voice in the video became somewhat agitated:

……

Running with the wind, freedom is the direction.

Chasing the power of thunder and lightning

I embrace the vast ocean in my heart.

Even the smallest sail can carry you far.

……

Blasted!

The listeners couldn't help but cheer in their hearts!

This chorus alone perfectly captures the emotions and mood that the song wants to convey!

Like thunder, forge ahead on the road to your dreams and prove yourself; like lightning, race forward at breakneck speed! We yearn for freedom and victory; no matter how many difficulties, obstacles, and setbacks lie ahead, no matter how insignificant we may be, as long as we cherish our dreams and bravely pursue them, we will surely live a carefree and beautiful life!

Many music critics were already overjoyed upon hearing this, and had already begun to outline the structure of their reviews! Putting everything else aside, this song has all five essential elements of a popular song: style, rhythm, theme, sublimation, and popularity!

With all this, not only will music reviews be easier to write, but this song is basically guaranteed to be a huge hit! Not to mention, Lin Fan also has another song, "Glory," that's just as good!

While "Glory" might be slightly less popular than this song, the difference isn't significant! After all, "Glory" has that stunning lyric, "The night gave me black eyes, but I use them to seek the light!" Even if the song itself isn't a hit, that lyric is bound to be!

[I said it! If this doesn't become popular, I'll eat my computer!]

Many music critics have posted the above text on their blogs because they have so much confidence in this lyric!

Lin Fan is still singing in the video, and the song is entering the second verse of the chorus:

……

Flying with the wind, dreams are my wings.

Dare to love, dare to do, be brave and take risks.

Even if we encounter the greatest risks, the biggest waves

There will also be unspoken understanding glances—

……

Wow! That's a breakthrough!

The concept has reached a new level!

The lyrics no longer simply describe the perseverance in pursuing dreams and the determination not to back down in the face of difficulties and obstacles, but are elevated to the point where we move forward together on the road to pursuing our dreams, encouraging and helping each other. No matter what setbacks we encounter, we must create our most brilliant youth and carve out our most splendid world.

This climax is the essence of the song; it's Lin Fan's declaration to the world on behalf of the younger generation: we pursue freedom, yearn for dreams, and will strive towards them.

Our oath is not empty words. We will stand shoulder to shoulder, united as one, and strive together to create our own future.

This is no longer just Lin Fan's personal voice, but the voice of an entire generation! It aligns with the ideological trends and aspirations of the younger generation, and it resonates with the spirit of hard work and perseverance of contemporary young people.

"shameless."

One music critic couldn't help but comment in this way.

However, after the evaluation, it must be admitted that Lin Fan has the means to be shameless.

Then, under Lin Fan's Weibo post, the following comment appeared.

[Born Entertainment Reporter: I regret it...]

What's there to regret? I regret not sticking with Lin Fan to the very end! I regret giving up voting for him just because he promised to sing two songs—well, actually I gave up voting first, and Lin Fan made the promise later—but who cares!

I just regret it!

If we had ignored Lin Fan's wishes and forced him into the debut position, how many new songs would he have released by the time he debuted? Even if Lin Fan doesn't want to release songs, his management company, his fans, and even his teammates can force him to release songs!

That's it! Lin Fan is really running away! He's going to open a bed and breakfast! Whether we'll hear any new songs from him in the future depends entirely on his own mood!

Regret! Hatred!

【Sa_Sa: Sister! I regret it too!】

[Cute Rabbit: Sister! I regret it too!]

Tremble, mortals: Sisters! I regret it too!

……

While the general public is flooding the comments section with "I regret it," music critics are working overtime to finish their articles, trying to ride the wave of Lin Fan's popularity. One article about "Glory" isn't even finished yet, and another new song is already out! Music critics are truly experiencing a bittersweet experience!

But what's the new song called again? Did Lin Fan say?

It seems... there isn't?

(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻!

Lin Fan, can you please be a little more reliable?! You upload a new song without telling your fans the title! How are we supposed to write a music review if you don't tell us the title? Are we supposed to use something like "Lin Fan's new song"? We're music critics, not novelists on some website! We're not paid by word count, we don't need to pad our word count like this!

……

Besides the music critics who were so angry they flipped the table, many people in the industry are also paying attention to Lin Fan's new song, especially the heads of management companies.

Representatives from various entertainment agencies were also getting restless. Lin Fan had already released so many good songs; who knew if he had any more hidden gems? If he didn't want to debut, would he be willing to sell the copyrights to his songs? Rumor had it that Lin Fan was extremely greedy for money; perhaps they could negotiate?

In a chat group within the real estate agent community.

Have you guys listened to Lin Fan's new song? What do you think? I think it's pretty good, and it has the potential to become a big hit.

"Having just heard it, it certainly has the potential to become a major hit. Just how much more skill does Lin Fan have up his sleeve?"

"You'll have to ask Lin Fan about that; nobody knows how much he's still hiding."

"Xia Yan helped produce all of Lin Fan's songs. Zhang Xinlan and Xia Yan are good friends, and Zhang Xinlan's manager is in our group. @Zhang Xinlan's manager, did you know? Can you give us a little inside information?"

"...I really don't know! I've never seen Lin Fan before!" After replying to this group, Zhang Xinlan's agent went to another group and copied and forwarded the same sentence.

After sending the message to the group, he still received various private messages. He felt utterly exhausted! Why are you all asking me? Why not just ask Xia Yan's manager, Sister Xia? Doesn't she know more than I do?

Seriously! Even if Sister Xia is a big shot in this industry, I'm not that much worse off! I'll try my best to bring out another artist of Zhang Xinlan's caliber, no, two! No! Three or four... Forget it, I really can't compare to Sister Xia, I'd better just obediently reply to the message.

P.S.: I didn't do any reading comprehension exercises, and I didn't use song lyrics to pad the word count! Seriously, look, this chapter is over 2500 words long, I put in a lot of effort!
