Chapter 1299: The big wedding (If this doesn't end, I'm a scaredy-cat)

He had successfully made it past the first task .

The topic that they had set was crazy difficult!

But Zhang Ye's answer to it was even crazier!

Xin Ya glanced at him . "Are you ready for the second test?"

Zhang Ye smiled and said, "Can I grab a bite first?"

"Have anything you want . You'll need the nutrition . " Fat Sis chuckled . "But if you don't clear all three tasks before the time is up, I'm afraid that the bride won't have anything to do with you . "

Zhang Ye smiled and said, "Alright, I'll have a quick bite then . "

Across the room, Zhang Ye's grandpa and grandma couldn't be more anxious .

His grandma said, "Could the bride really end up not coming out?"

Zhang Ye's mother said in amusement, "All of these are just games to get everyone in the spirit of things . They are just for fun and laughter, so how could they possibly not let my daughter-in-law come out?"

His father said, "Let's just watch the festivities . "

His grandma heaved a sigh of relief . "That's better, that's better . "

Everyone knew that this was just to provide entertainment .

The reporters knew this .

The guests knew it as well .

As an example, for the first task that was given, the bride's team did not actually think that Zhang Ye could successfully complete it . They had intended to stump him with the opening task, and if he could not answer it, all he would have to do was hand out some red packets or say a few nice words to plead with them and they would have allowed him to skip it and go directly to the second task . All this was done deliberately to put him in a difficult situation, as well as an attempt to earn some red packets from him . But to everyone's surprise, Zhang Ye actually answered a question like that without even breaking a sweat . So how could the bride's team just leave it at that? All of them were trying to restrain themselves as they prepared to give Zhang Ye something "good" next .

Otherwise, it would look too embarrassing .

Yet anyone who knew Zhang Ye would know that this fellow was naturally a very competitive person .

Get him to throw in the towel?

That would be impossible!

After a quick bite, Zhang Ye was full . "I'm good . "

Xin Ya smiled . "Then can we give the next test?"

Zhang Ye gave a calm smile . "Come, I'm ready to continue . "

A hint of malevolence shone in Xin Ya's eyes as she said, "So, the second test will consist of three questions . We will give the keywords and you will have to write and compose a song on the spot using them . After that, you will be required to sing it for everyone here . "

Zhang Ye said in a speechless manner, "Three questions? Then you should consider that three different tests, shouldn't you?"

Fat Sis harrumphed . "We will count it as only one test . "

Zhang Ye threw up his hands . "Whatever, there's nothing I can say to that . "

Everyone laughed .

The reporters were also excited!

Composing songs?



And there would even be three of them?

Were they going to get to hear a new song from Zhang Ye?

But quite a few musicians who were present exchanged glances with one another when they heard that . Write a song spontaneously? It was easier said than done . Even composing a song on their own would be a problem, much less composing a song based on a subject given by others . Among the singer-songwriters in the industry, how many of them could do it?

Xin Ya even added, "On top of that, the requirements for you to clear this test will be: First, it has to match the subject that we give you . Second, you cannot just sing whatever; it has to be good . It will only count if at least 95% of the people here think it's good . It won't pass if the song is not well-written either . "

Damn!

Wasn't this as good as trying to finish him off?!

Chen Guang and Fan Wenli were left speechless!

Zhang Xia didn't know whether to laugh or cry!

Ning Lan was already preparing to have a laugh at Zhang Ye's expense!

It was already very difficult writing a song, and even more so if it had to be written in accordance with a subject . But now, they were basically asking him to compose a classic! They wanted him to write a song that almost everyone would approve of? How could that be possible!

Xin Ya said, "Of course, you can also get help from your friends and relatives . "

Chen Guang, Zhang Xia, Xiaodong, Amy, and a few others were all involved in music, so they might be able to offer some ideas .

Zhang Ye smiled and said, "So what's the subject?"

Old Wu's niece said, "For the first question, we know that Uncle-in-law has written many poems, right?"

Zhang Ye smile and said, "Yes, I've written quite a few before . "

The bride's team had clearly discussed it beforehand .

Fat Sis said with an evil laugh, "Then we want you to use one of your poems to write a song for our Zeqing . "

Everyone was stunned .

A poem?

How could he do that!

Zhang Ye also fell silent for a moment .

Xin Ya laughed and said, "Well, can you?"

Zhang Ye grinned . "Sure . "

He walked up to the front . Looking at the instruments placed there, there was a piano, a drum set, and a guitar . He bent down and chose the acoustic guitar, then tuned it .

Xin Ya was stunned .

Fan Wenli was dumbfounded .

Don't you need to think about it first?

Don't you have to conceptualize something first?

The guitar sounded as Zhang Ye started strumming . It sounded like a ballad!

A soothing melody played 1 !



It filled the air!

"When you are old and grey and full of sleep .

"When you are old and unable to walk, nodding off by the fireplace, reminiscing your youth .

"How many loved your moments of glad grace,

"and loved your beauty with love false or true .

"But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,

"And loved the sorrows of your changing face . "

It was quiet in the garden!

Everyone was listening, mesmerized!

A lot of people had been moved by it!

It was that poem!

"When You Are Old"!

It was the poem Zhang Ye used to announce his engagement on Weibo, the poem that went viral online!

He really could sing it!

He managed to arrange that poem into a song!

Zhang Ye kept singing .

"When you are old, with eyes draping,

"and lights appearing dim .

"The winds brings to me,

"news about you .

"It turns into a song in my heart . "

The song was over!

Applause broke out instantly!

The more than a 100 spectating reporters were also cheering loudly!

It was fantastic!

How very nice!

This song was so memorable for a wedding!

Chen Guang gave it the thumbs up!

Zhang Xia also gave it the thumbs up!

A lot of people were impressed once again!

Zhang Ye put the guitar down and said with a smile, "This should do it, right?"

The applause had already made it clear . This song was great . If it wasn't good, then there wouldn't be many songs that were considered good!

Xin Ya rolled her eyes . "This is only the first song . The subject for the second song is 'love song . '"

A love song?

That should be easy!

But very quickly, Fat Sis added, "By love song, we don't mean the genre . What we want is a song that revolves around the words 'love song' to be written for Zeqing, haha . "

Using the words "love song" to write a love song?

What kind of a topic was this!

The topics were really getting more and more tricky!

Everyone was left dizzy at these topics!

But Zhang Ye simply chuckled at that . This time, he sat down in front of the piano . Without any hesitation again, the melody was already playing . He sang out clearly 2 :

"This piece is a simple little love song .

"It sings of the innocence in our hearts .

"I think I'm perfect for

"being a singer .

"Our youth drifts along in the wind .

"You know, even if the whole city were torn down by storms, I would still embrace you .

"I can't take it, waiting for you to come back, so I wrote down the unbearable lament and mourning that I feel .

"Even if the whole world were kidnapped by loneliness, I wouldn't run away .

"It's inescapable; we'll all end up old someday, so I wrote down the nostalgia mixed with time and the piano . "

This song was called "A Little Love Song . "

Zhang Ye sang it without a blemish .

"Bravo!"

"Great singing!"

"That was fantastic!"

"Incredible!"

"Zhang Ye is indeed Zhang Ye!"

"Hahahaha, awesome!"

"I'm kneeling!"

"Boss Zhang is such a genius!"

Xin Ya was getting anxious . "For the third question, aren't you holding a Chinese style ceremony? So we require you to write a song related to a bridal sedan 3 . No, wait . A bridal sedan will be too simple . Let's see you write a song about the wedding veil!"

A wedding veil?

The hanging cloth that covered the bride's face?

What the fuck? When has there ever been a song about a wedding veil!

Can the topics get any stranger than this!

Everyone was blindsided!

However, Zhang Ye opened his mouth and sang .

He mischievously played the piano 4 .

"Raise your wedding veil for me .

"Let me look at your eyebrows .

"They are so fine and so long .

"Like the crescent moon atop the trees .

"They are so fine and so long .

"Like the crescent moon atop the trees . "

A wedding veil?

So you could write a song with that too?!

Everyone was shocked!

Subconsciously, a lot of them were already following the beat!

Some people even started dancing to it!

Zhang Ye laughed as he sang .

"Raise your wedding veil for me .

"Let me look at your eyes .

"They are so bright and so clear .

"Like the ripples in a pond .

"They are so bright and so clear .

"Like the ripples in a pond . "

Old Wu's team of friends and relatives broke down!

You can even do that?

You can even do it like that?

Oh my God!

You win!

Zhang Ye, you win!
