That night, the "New Song Express" column of Commercial Radio pushed out two new songs that Jingyi had just recorded that day. The new tracks were refreshing to the listeners and became popular immediately.

"The drizzle outside the door is scattered like flying flowers."

"I am too lazy to talk about time, like a dumb person."

"I am not afraid of autumn and winter, my longing is like midsummer."

"...!"

This ancient Cantonese song "Xiao Na" is like a clear spring, trickling into the Cantonese music scene that is about to dry up, bringing a breath of vitality to the Cantonese music scene.

"Hold an umbrella to catch the falling flowers, and watch the west wind riding on a skinny horse."

"We met on that day, fate is like a dream play."

"The scenery is so beautiful, why does Mo Rang still worry about it?"

"...!"

This is a completely new type of song, as if one has faded away from the hustle and bustle of the city and entered a realm of poetry, wine, countryside, and picking chrysanthemums by the eastern hedge.

The music was done without Western instruments, and all traditional instruments were used, with a few electronic synthesizers as embellishments. The lyrics were classical and elegant, with neat wording, like poetry.

"Genius really cannot be buried! He hasn't released any songs for two years, it turns out he's been planning something big!" Huang Zhan sighed after turning off the radio.

He is composing the music for the movie "Swordsman". The framework of the movie's theme song "A Laugh in the Sea" has been completed, and it also uses the melody of ancient music. Could it be that great minds think alike?

He only listened to the beginning of the other song, "Don't Be Afraid". This kind of brainwashing song with a cheerful rhythm is only suitable for young people. He was not interested at all!

Before the two new songs were released, the wireless television station TVB came to ask for the recorded songs, made the MTV overnight, and put it on the TV station's song request channel.

The next day, Jingyi prepared to go out to Guang Commercial Radio to record the two Cantonese songs, "A Moment of Romance" and "It's Rare to Find Lovers".

Before she even got in the car, she received a call from Warner Records Director He Tuzhe, asking her to discuss the recording of a new album.

Jingyi thought that since she had already released ancient style songs, she might as well put together half an album of songs of this type, and then release a new album with a few Cantonese songs.

After hanging up the phone, she went back to select the accompaniment music. "Sail in the Mist", "Red Wish", "Bamboo Branch Song", "Red Wedding Dress", "Rainy Flowers Fall". All of them are Cantonese versions of ancient style songs!

After signing a cooperation agreement with Warner Records, Jingyi finished recording the album in just one week. When shooting promotional posters, Jingyi's several ancient costumes immediately amazed everyone.

After the album was released, the songs full of ancient charm were played in the streets and alleys. Of course, the brainwashing song "Don't Be Afraid" was also played.

The second English album she recorded and released last year has already reached six diamond sales after a year of sales around the world. She now has two six-diamond albums, plus two piano albums. According to statistics from the Recording Industry Association of North America, the total sales of the four albums have exceeded 200 million copies.

In Hong Kong, financial newspapers and magazines compile a list of the richest people every year, and Entertainment Weekly also compiles a list of Hong Kong celebrities' incomes, and Lou Jingyi has been ranked first for several years.

The newspapers analyzed her situation and thought that she took advantage of the fact that the company did not share profits with her. As long as she paid taxes, the rest was her own income. But no one could learn her model.

As soon as the National Day was over in the mainland, Jingyi's symphony "Conquering Heaven" immediately conquered the hearts of the audience and quickly became popular all over the world!

Director Luo of the Hong Kong Symphony Orchestra came over to ask for the music score. They plan to play this symphony at the New Year's Eve music party this year.

After New Year's Day, we will enter the 1990s, and the entertainment in the mainland will be more open. Jingyi feels it is necessary to open a studio in the old city.

She asked her acquaintances about it first. Because she was from Hong Kong, the mainland was not open to foreign capital in the cultural industry. She could set up a cultural and art studio, but she did not have the right to publish and distribute movies, TV shows, songs and books.

Jingyi tried to recall that the cultural industry had indeed never been open to the outside world. She had never heard of overseas capital entering these cultural industries in the mainland.

If she wants to develop in the mainland, she has to find local film production companies and entertainment companies to cooperate with. Otherwise, there is only one way, to find someone with mainland household registration to register the company's business license as the legal representative.

If it is not the person he trusts the most, it will not work at all. When the market value of the company exceeds 100 million yuan, how can the legal person who owns the company not be tempted?

In January, she began to attend major award ceremonies. At the 9th Hong Kong Film Awards, Jingyi won the Best Actress Award for her performance in the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story". This is her second time to win this award!

At this year's Top Ten Golden Awards, when Anita Mui went on stage to receive the award, she also announced that she would no longer accept various awards and leave the opportunity to more singers.

Danny Chen won the Most Popular Male Singer Award for his song "What Do You Want in Life", and Lou Jingyi won the Most Popular Female Singer Award again!

She also wanted to go on stage and announce that she didn't want to accept the award anymore! But the Hong Kong Music Association refused to agree. Lou Jingyi is a beacon of the Chinese music scene, and she can't let her light fade.

There was basically nothing to do before the New Year. Jingyi gave Tingting and Molly a holiday, and seeing that the time was about the same, she flew back to Beijing alone to celebrate the Spring Festival.

Today, the city is thriving and full of the flavor of the New Year. The State Administration of Radio, Film and Television even imported her film A Chinese Ghost Story: The Human World, shot last year, and even the first film, shot three years ago, was also introduced to the mainland.

This further spread her popularity in the mainland. The mainland doesn't care whether you are an Oscar winner or not, what they recognize is the wonderful performance that can be seen on the big screen.

I heard that the mainland asked the Shanghai Film Translation Studio to re-dub the Mandarin version, and the dialogue is very exciting. For this reason, Jingyi also bought tickets and took Lou Xiao'e and her husband to experience it. As expected, every show was sold out. The scalpers made a lot of money!

It was New Year's Eve in a flash, and grandma Tan Yali brought He Daqing to Lou Mansion early in the morning. Jingyi had no prejudice against He Daqing. He Daqing spoke humorously and was just an ordinary old man in the city.

He brought various ingredients to Lou Mansion and was busy in the kitchen early in the morning. He didn't let Jingyi go in to help.

Jingyi could only talk to him in the kitchen and learned that Yushui and his wife were going back to her husband's house to celebrate the New Year. Grandma had invited Shazhu and his wife to come to Lou Mansion together, but Shazhu and Qin Huairu said that they had already made arrangements this year and would celebrate the New Year with the three uncles in the courtyard.

There is a prototype of a happy home! No matter how hard she tries to change the plot, there is always an invisible hand that drags the plot back on track.

"Didn't I hear that your Nanluoguxiang is going to be demolished?" Jingyi deliberately led him to the topic.

"Hey! These are all rumors. The district government has sent people to dispel the rumors. The courtyard buildings in Nanluoguxiang will be permanently preserved as a historical relic." He Daqing explained with regret.

"So do you people in the courtyard want to demolish it or keep it?" Jingyi asked him again.

"Of course we are willing to be relocated! We can live in new buildings with everything we need. Now all the young people in the courtyards have moved out, and the elderly who are left have trouble using water. We are all looking forward to the relocation so that we can get some compensation."

He Daqing kept moving, and the two chatted. Grandma Tan Yali called her over, nagging her that she didn't want to get married at the age of 29, and handed her three or four property certificates.

"What's this for? Why did you buy a courtyard house?"

Jingyi opened it and saw that it was all houses in the compound of No. 95 Nanluoguxiang. She immediately became furious! Was she going to go back to the old ways?

"Ever since it was announced that the area would not be demolished, the children of the Yan family in the front yard come to make trouble every day. The old couple were forced into a desperate situation by their children, and had to pick up scraps on the street to sell in order to pay off their foreign debts. I helped as much as I could, and bought the west wing and the back house in the front yard to tell the children of the Yan family to stop making trouble." Grandma explained calmly.

"How come the property certificates for the east wing and the east hall in the backyard are in your hands?"

Jingyi looked through several property certificates and saw her own name on them. She felt relieved immediately, because the house belonged to her, and she would not let someone else succeed.
