【New Red Mansion】Perfect World

"The willow branches and elm pods are fragrant,

Regardless of Tao Piao and Li Fei;

The peaches and plums will bloom again next year,

Who will be in the boudoir next year?

In March, the sweet nest has been built.

The swallows on the beams are so heartless!

Although the flowers will bloom next year,

But I didn’t expect that the empty nest would fall after the person left…”

Fairy mist lingered on the stage. It was gray at first, like the early days of the universe. Under the faint warm light, several fairies were scattered in the mist. Lin Pin'er, who was in the center, wore a headset. She sang softly with her very young voice. Her voice was very ethereal when she didn't use any techniques. In the past few days, she and Teacher Nie studied a singing style that made her voice more fairy-like, so that she could return to the state when she wrote the Song of Burying Flowers at the age of fifteen.

At this moment, the entire stage was like a connected fragrant island, with the shadows of flowers hiding the spring scenery. It was really like the fairyland of Penglai and the Yaochi in the mortal world. Such a beautiful scenery coupled with the music was like the call of a fairy child coming from afar in the dense forest of the fairyland.

The female lead dancer seemed to be called and slowly walked into the forest, sweeping the fallen petals very skillfully. She followed the music step by step, dancing with her body and the broom in her hand, and gradually clearing away the fog.

The lights changed, and the light green light hit the curtains behind the fairies. The flowers on a fairy peach tree in the distance began to slowly wake up. Those flowers seemed to breathe the fresh air of the fairyland, slowly blooming, and then transformed into flower fairies one by one. They seemed to be extremely curious about the entire fairyland, slowly looking around, and even stretching.

As the music became more lively, the dancers spun and jumped and floated down the tree trunks. The whole stage seemed to be immersed in the morning sun. With the sun illuminating the fog, everyone could see the girl band members on the stage clearly.

Lin Pin'er had two guqins in front of her, and she switched back and forth between them freely, as if it was a new way of playing. What everyone didn't know was that Lin Ning told Lin Pin'er the day before the performance that she had another very clear dream that foresaw the future. In the dream, the strings of Lin Pin'er's guqin broke during the performance, but fortunately she had two guqins, which easily resolved the crisis of the performance.

Although Li Shuirong helped everyone replace and repair the instruments in time, to be on the safe side, he still placed two guqins in front of Lin Pin'er according to her idea.

Director Mi was staring at the live broadcast screen nervously in the control room. On another audio track, there was pre-recorded audio that followed the progress in real time. She stared at the countdown, afraid of any mistakes.

Two minutes passed and everything was normal.

Three and a half minutes passed and everything was normal.

At three minutes and forty-nine seconds, Lin Pin'er's guqin string really broke, but her expression was very natural. She easily raised her hand and switched to another guqin to continue playing. She was so skilled that no one could spot a single flaw.

Director Mi discovered this detail, but she did not press the audio replacement button. Instead, she used the intercom to inform the cameraman: "Don't cut to the close-up of Moly's piano, turn the camera to other team members and dancers." After spending a few days together, she already trusted Lin Pin'er. And seeing her fearless performance just now, she was even more confident in her. The audio recorded in advance would not be used today.

The stage was revolving. When the next stage rotated from the back to the front, Lin Pin'er and the others were helped by the staff to jump off the stage. Lin Pin'er held a guqin, while Xie Yaning held the microphone in his left hand and helped her hold the guqin with his right hand.

After leaving the stage, the girls quickly put away their instruments. When the music started, they began to clap and cheer quietly. After more than ten days, their nerves were tense, and they finally completed the task, and completed it perfectly. How could they not be excited?

Several people quickly put on their down jackets. The ventilation vents in the backstage were nearby, and the breeze was whistling...

The backstage was packed with people. The staff rushed to the stage where they had just performed to change the scenery and props. A group of children dressed as Super Mario were led to wait in line. Lin Hongyu and several assistants led the girls through the crowd, moving around wherever they could, and soon they were out of the crowded area.

"Ms. Lin, do you need to change clothes before going back? The dressing room has been arranged."

Lin Pin'er was eager to go home at this moment, but she still turned around and asked her teammates.

"Go back and change. It's easier there. I always go back and take off my clothes and go straight into the bathroom. It saves me from getting foundation on my clothes. I'm wearing new clothes today." Bobo muttered softly behind Lin Pin'er.

Xie Yaning and the others also nodded: "Let's go back and change. There aren't enough changing rooms. Let's give them to those who need them!"

Lin Hongyu immediately called to coordinate, and asked the assistants to pick up their bags and clothes. She took them directly to the parking lot, and asked Su Miaoyu for permission to use the underground parking lot. Li Shuirong was already waiting there with two nanny cars.

As Lin Pin'er approached the car, the door suddenly opened.

"You scared me." Lin Pin'er said angrily.

"You're getting older every year, but you're still so timid?" Li Shuirong teased, but his hand instinctively took the violin case from her hand, put it away, and then took the case from Xie Yaning's hand.

"Then I'll go get in the car over there first." After Xie Yaning finished speaking about the guitar case, he hurried to get in his own car.

After the car started, Lin Pin'er leaned close to his ear and whispered to Li Shuirong, "Just now, the string really broke."

"Ah, Lin Ning's dream is so accurate." Li Shuirong raised his voice excitedly.

Lin Pin'er patted him lightly, put her index finger to her lips, and made a gesture of silence.

"Shh, keep your voice down. She told us the secret, so we have to keep it confidential and not cause her any unnecessary trouble."

Li Shuirong smiled after hearing this and said, "Don't worry, I'm the best at keeping secrets." After saying that, he hugged Lin Pin'er into his arms.

"But you, you've worked so hard for so many days, I feel so bad for you, you finally finished the performance. I just watched the live broadcast, and I couldn't see any flaws. Director Mi should have switched the camera in time, and there was no problem with the music. You should have saved the situation in time..."

Lin Pin'er was delighted to hear the compliment, but she also complained after she was done being happy: "I was too nervous on the Spring Festival Gala stage, more nervous than I've ever been on a stage before, because I knew that there were more than a billion people watching, so I was afraid that I would make a mistake in front of them."

"Then why do you insist on not using the pre-recorded audio?" Li Shuirong was rubbing Lin Pin'er's head with his chin again. This was his favorite way of intimacy.

Lin Pin'er dodged his chin, sat up straight, and said righteously: "This is my attitude towards music, and it is the attitude I will always stick to. I must show my truest side to everyone. If I just play the audio and pretend, it would be better for me to stay at home with my grandmother."
