After dreaming of getting rich, I dressed up as a collapsed idol

Beginning with the C major chord, a warm and soothing melody rises, like a gentle prologue, softly narrating the story about to unfold.

The flow of melodic notes follows the classic Carmen progression. On this main key, major seventh chords and suspended chords are used, creating a rich sense of layering and warm colors, resulting in a tranquil yet profound atmosphere.

The piece wasn't complicated, and Lu Qingfeng played it with ease, but he was very serious. His eyes were on his hands, and every time his fingers struck the keys, he was focused and sincere.

The clear, granular tone of the piano envelops a warm and healing emotion.

"Light, kneaded from the dark clouds into a ball;"

"Like a whale kissing the waves."

……

"Wrapped in the Light of the Heart," a work by JJ Lin from 2021.

This song was written during JJ Lin's tour. Due to well-known reasons, offline performances were suspended, and JJ Lin wrote this song during his quarantine period.

He expressed his gratitude to his fans for their support during that time.

The reason why singers can shine on stage is because the fans offstage are shining their hearts, a two-way illumination, a two-way tenderness.

This concept also led to the lyrics of this song being written in accordance with this core idea.

……

"The light that envelops my heart is warm, and it's connected to you;"

"Where there is a dream, there is a voice; respond with love and exclamation."

……

The imagery in the lyrics makes the creative background easy to understand.

'Light' refers to the fans, and 'dark clouds' represent difficulties. Because of your presence, difficulties are no longer obstacles.

The chorus, "The light that wraps my heart is so warm, it's related to you," is very straightforward.

If the previous donations were considered as feedback, most fans wouldn't derive any emotional response from them, since not many people actually sent gifts.

I was moved, but there was still a layer between me and the feeling that it had nothing to do with me.

This song is a complete and overwhelming emotional blow.

Will the fans be able to understand?

Actually, this is the least of our worries. Fans can scrutinize any behavior of their idols with a magnifying glass, like Leeuwenhoek, breaking down and dissecting every note and lyric in a song to understand it thoroughly.

Even if some people are confused, there will be people in the comments section who will explain it to them one by one.

"You can get there once you set out, and the road you came from won't be cut off. Who understands the feeling of not being able to stop crying when you hear this? It reminds me of what my little deer went through before."

"I couldn't hold back anymore here. 'The light wrapped in your heart is very loud, don't panic,' I really want to be with those older sisters who have been with me all this time, I'm so envious!"

"I have nothing more to say, Little Deer, I will always support you!"

Lu Qingfeng mastered both the art of tormenting and pandering to his fans.

……

"You know, Xujiahui is related to Xu Guangqi of the Ming Dynasty."

On the Bund in Shanghai, Luo Yunqian put down her phone and looked at the skyscrapers across the street.

Jiang Xin'an, holding her phone, turned to look at her fellow fan sister upon hearing this; the deer in the video was still singing.

She knew that this older sister was one of the "lights" in the song.

"According to historical records, Xu Guangqi was the first Ming Dynasty official to begin studying Western science. He also translated many books related to mathematics, and his family descendants live in this area."

"Later, it gradually developed into a market town and was called Xujiahui."

The urban white-collar worker chattered on and on with his younger sister, whom he had only recently met, about things that had nothing to do with what he was currently doing.

"When I first read about this in a book, I found it very interesting. Then I remembered that the name of my hometown also had a similar origin, and I found that it really was true."

“Like Sanlitun, Liuliqiao, Qilizhuang, that is how far these places were from the city gate in ancient times, haha, isn’t that interesting?”

Her smile hadn't stopped since she started talking, and she was nodding her head slightly as she spoke.

“I didn’t know these things before. After graduating from university, I basically haven’t touched a book. I’m so tired from work every day that I just want to play on my phone. I don’t have time for books.”

"Later, Little Deer started writing fairy tales..."

At this point, her shoulders slumped, and she looked distressed.

“He was so pitiful back then, so small, and his clothes and shoes looked like they had been worn for ages. When we got the news, we felt that this kid must have had a very hard time after the group failed.”

“His parents are irresponsible. What if his writing fails again? He tried so hard.”

This was the first time Jiang Xin'an had learned about this backstory.

There are many reports online about Lu Qingfeng's high school life. Since he became famous, this part of his history has been brought up, but no one knows the story behind him.

“Back then, we discussed in the group that we should subscribe to more of his stories online and also mobilized people around us to help promote them online. At that time, everyone had the mindset of raising a child and hoped that he could grow up well.”

"Now he is finally being seen by more and more people."

"As for me, I also started reading other miscellaneous books instead of just reading stories about deer. I learned a lot of useless little bits of knowledge. Haha, I can't say they're useless. Sometimes I can still show off a bit, like right now."

Luo Yunqian turned her head and winked at her.

that's nice!

Jiang Xin'an thought to herself, this is perhaps the true meaning of idol worship.

"All right."

Luo Yunqing opened her arms.

"We've received the gift from the little deer; now it's our turn."

Jiang Xin'an nodded.

At 5:26, during this special time, she used her phone to open her long-prepared Weibo account and post the carefully selected photos.

The first set of photos is a nine-grid layout, all featuring Lu Qingfeng.

The first four images are iconic photos from the past: a meteor shower performance at the Sky Mirror, catching a hat under neon lights by the Huangpu River, a white-haired figure in ancient costume at the Huanglong Scenic Area, and the first concert at the Shenzhen Concert Hall.

The following photos were taken by Jiang Xin'an herself.

The second group that followed was donations from fans to schools for the deaf and mute, guide dog bases, and rural primary schools.

The content of the photos is almost identical to those released by the studio.

That's normal, because the two people who made the donation met together, and the gratitude photos taken by the school and the al-Qaeda organization were taken at the same time, so there's naturally no difference.

Once the fan site was launched, fans who had been notified in the group chat started forwarding, commenting on, and liking the two Weibo posts, quickly boosting their popularity and making them a hot topic.

The Qingfeng Mingyue Studio and Lu Qingfeng's personal account are no exception.

The hype is skyrocketing!

Various trending search terms began to appear on the list, and passersby were surprised that the two sides were so consistent in their thinking. This was completely different from foreign fans celebrating the birthdays of artists. This generation was driving up traffic.

Around 7 o'clock, several related terms were marked with a "hot" icon.

However, this is far from the end.

At 7 PM, countless drones created a series of images over the skies of five cities: Shanghai, Chengdu, Shenzhen, Chang'an, and Beijing.

The first four cities each correspond to a classic scene.

Here in Yanjing, the words "Happy Birthday, Lu Qingfeng" are displayed in large characters.

May the bright moon bear witness to this magnificent moment!
