Everyone has a moment to compete with the world, some people choose to be gang gang, some people slowly temper themselves, and perhaps more people are smoothed out by the world and silently compromise.
In dealing with the injustices and unavoidable pains of the world, whether rigid, silent or subservient, there is no solution that is the standard answer. But in one person, we see another option – gentleness to the right.
He sang in "Believe": I will always believe that the drops of water that have pierced into my heart are pulled up in another world, and the curtain is pulled up in the clear sky. He is Wu Qingfeng, who just celebrated his 39th birthday today.
The gentle Ben Rou Wu Qingfeng quietly rewrote Tagore's famous sentence: The world kisses me with pain, and I repay it with a song.
Fight pain gently
On August 27, Yu Ding's latest album "Pond Strange Talk" released a new song " At the end of the world to say loudly that I hate you", which clearly pointed the finger at their former manager Lin Weizhe.
From being called "the man behind soda green" to monopolizing the copyright of soda green songs and breaking up with Wu Qingfeng, Lin Weizhe has seen what is wrong with soda green over the years and even eats melons.
With the establishment of Fish Ding Ito, Wu Qingfeng and the members of Soda Green have entered a new stage of life. And this song "Say Loudly At the End of the World I Hate You" is actually not as angry and fierce as the title of the song, but expresses the emotion of hatred and non-hatred in a childish, playful tone:
Wu Qingfeng once thanked him in "When We Walk Together": "I am drifting in the wilderness, and the end of the drift is the tolerance of your love." Now Wu Qingfeng sang softly and decisively in "Say Loudly At the End of the World That I Hate You": "At the end of the drift, I am no longer tolerant." ”
Even if they are hurt by the people closest to them, Wu Qingfeng and the new Fish Ding Yu are still not desperate for the world, but have gone farther and farther in the search for music, as evidenced by their latest album "Pond Strange Talk".
As a music album, "Pond Strange Talk" has chosen an unprecedented way. First of all, Universal Music specially invited Taiwanese director Cheng Weihao to create an exclusive album of the same name for this album, "Pond Strange Talk".
Cheng Weihao, who has always been known for horror films, has mixed comedy elements while the drama focuses on the use of horror elements, and currently has a douban score of 7.5 points. Netizens' summary of this episode is even more in one sentence - "burning brain and not completely burning, sand sculpture and incomplete sand".
And the broadcast of each episode of the episode "Pond Strange Talk" will also release a new song audition of the music album "Pond Strange Talk". This practice is not only a novel way of publicity, but also allows the audience to immerse themselves in the emotions in the music.
For Wu Qingfeng and Ding Yu, isn't this the world kissing me bitterly and I singing in return?
Express yourself gently
Long before the Lin Weizhe incident, Wu Qingfeng had already experienced all kinds of violence in the world.
When he was a child, he was at odds with his father at home and suffered domestic violence; the university group still heard the evaluation of "too young lady"; during the school period, because he was too Sven, he often had to be the "back cooker" of his classmates...
Any one of these experiences can destroy a person's life, and Wu Qingfeng, who grew up in this environment, has never shown a sunny and fresh image.
In Wu Qingfeng's third year of high school, he did not know how to compose music at all, and he applied for the school's creative group competition, hummed some songs on the way home, and then gradually hummed his first song "Peeping", and won the award with this song.
"Peeping" has a distinct Wu Qingfeng-style musical style, the style is cheerful and jumpy, the lyrics are ghostly and profound, and the sentence "Anyway, this world is not reasonable", let the world see his freedom for the first time.
And his second song "Lonely Time" highlights his melodic genius side, and the lyrics of the lyrics repeatedly chant "to you, to you" are just like Wu Qingfeng's attitude towards life, mixed with warmth in melancholy.
The first two songs of life, one is the gentleness of peering into the world and self-reconciliation, and the other is the gentleness of turning loneliness into thoughts, full of tenderness. They set the tone of Wu Qingfeng's musical path and achieved more than twenty years of gentle sounds.
In "Unparalleled Beauty", he sings "I know that you are the unparalleled beauty in this world", and in "Flying Fish", he sings that "although there is still so much pain and paralysis, the sky may be rainbow even if it is not blue".
When you listen to the music of Wu Qingfeng, Soda Green or Fish Ding, it is difficult to imagine what the singers hiding in the headphones have experienced, or because their music is too gentle and dispels the sorrow and sorrow of the world.
Gently spread the sun
Leaving aside the identities of the core creators and singers of Soda Green and Fish Ding, many songs that you may not imagine are also from Wu Qingfeng's hand.
In 2018, the seventeenth year of S.H.E's military, he invited Wu Qingfeng to create a song tailored for them. When they first listened to the "Seventeen" demo, the three of them were deeply moved, and were surprised that Qingfeng could so accurately pinch their emotions and spread out the long story of seventeen years.
Jolin Tsai's 2018 hit single "Strange Beauty" is also composed by Wu Qingfeng, after four consecutive versions, this song that inspires everyone to face themselves and embrace their emotions and desires has also become a major representative work of Jolin Tsai.
On the stage of the third season of I Am a Singer, the two sang this "Strange Beauty" together, and the tolerance of people's diverse personalities and representations in the song just right broke the various labels attached to Wu Qingfeng.
Can write about sisterhood, can write about multi-faceted life, and can also write about universal love. In Rainie Yang's masterpiece "Take Me Away", a turbulent inner drama is performed on the basis of British rock, which is appropriately in line with the name of this album "Half-Cooked Declaration" and Rainie Yang's gorgeous transformation. Behind the control of the heat, complete the songwriting is Wu Qingfeng.
Wu Qingfeng's creative works can always be based on his gentle temperament and transform into various types of music. It can not only cover veteran singers such as Lin Yilian, Tan Yonglin, Karen Mok, etc., but also fit the style of new generation artists such as Rocket Girl 101, Modern Brothers Liu Yuning, and Cen Ning'er.
Among them, the only constant is Qingfeng's original intention of spreading sunshine and power.
Chinese often say "born from the heart", Wu Qingfeng, who just turned 39 today, seems to be the same as when he first debuted, perhaps his gentle belief has slowed down the pace of time - the world kisses me with pain, and I sing in return.
