Everyone present, whether teachers or students, was filled with curiosity about what Chen Yu's standard Chinese style was like.

Chen Yu smiled slightly as he watched everyone eagerly awaiting his arrival.

Liu Yun looked at Wang Yali beside her and said, "Yali, have you heard the song Chen Yu mentioned?!"

Wang Yali shook her head and said, "No, he rarely talks to me about his creative process, and I rarely ask him. He's very busy. He not only has to write songs, but also perform and do research and development. How could he have time to sing for me?"

Hearing Wang Yali's slightly forlorn tone, Liu Yun stopped talking and quietly watched the busy Chen Yu.

A moment later, Chen Yu was ready.

"Dong Feng Po" is a song prepared by Chen Yu.

"Dong Feng Po" is a landmark song in the Chinese folk song genre, a quintessential example of the genre. It's the most complete and representative work of the Chinese folk song style, with a naturally flowing melody and lyrics that evoke a sense of ancient nostalgia, as if there truly were a Song Dynasty poem titled "Dong Feng Po." Jay Chou's interpretation of the Chinese folk style has given it a unique character!

The melody, in the style of ancient folk tunes, is enhanced by the erhu and pipa, creating a retro feel that easily transports listeners to the world of Tang and Song poetry and evokes a sense of wonder.

Today, Chen Yu simply took it over and brought this book, which can be called a textbook of Chinese style, to the public.

"Although I have already recorded this song, in order to give everyone the most direct experience, I will perform it live. Due to limited conditions, please bear with me," Chen Yu said modestly.

As they spoke, a background music track was played.

The accompaniment for "Dong Feng Po" came out.

Upon hearing the accompaniment to this song, the person who had done this research had their eyes light up.

"A lonely lamp stands at the window

I'm pretending behind the door that you haven't left yet

Returning to an old place under the full moon only brings more loneliness.

Chen Yu sang "Dong Feng Po". The pipa melody of "Dong Feng Po" lingered in time and space, as if accompanying the music, or as if weeping.

It felt really good.

The old professor was very impressed, and the students were also pleasantly surprised. After careful consideration, they found that this version of "Dong Feng Po" was more authentic and had more flavor.

"What a prodigy! To overthrow oneself and then rebuild on that foundation—that's true power!"

"Yes, he's not to be underestimated. He truly deserves to be called a prodigy. This song is absolutely amazing. Chen Yu has truly cemented his status as the originator of Chinese style music."

"666, this junior is awesome! Having a junior like this must be a huge pressure!"

"Luckily, there's only one Chen Yu in this world, otherwise how would any of us survive?!"

"I'm almost giving up on music. Does the Crown Prince have to be so audacious? Leave us a way out!"

Utilizing the pipa, a classical Chinese instrument, and the sentiments of ancient poetry, the song borrows melodies with a Chinese classical style and incorporates Western R&B elements. The lyrics are imbued with Chinese cultural connotations, and the song uses modern singing techniques and arrangement skills to enhance the atmosphere, resulting in a style that is subtle, melancholic, elegant, and lighthearted. Thus, the "three ancient and three new" (ancient poetry, ancient culture, ancient melody, new singing style, new arrangement, and new concept) Chinese style musical characteristics were perfectly formed.

"Thank you!" Chen Yu bowed slightly in thanks, indicating that the song was now over.

When Chen Yu saw that there was no reaction from the audience, he thought that he had sung too badly and disappointed them. But that shouldn't be the case. Although the conditions were not very good, he still sang quite well!

"Clap clap~"

The next moment, the entire audience applauded and stood up. Liu Yun was also extremely excited; she had thought Chen Yu was really just bragging for three hours straight.

Even if they gave us something, it would only be a tiny bit; I didn't expect them to give us so much!

"Thank you. Now let's talk about this song, 'Dong Feng Po'," Chen Yu said with a smile.

Unbeknownst to Chen Yu, his performance video was recorded by some students and secretly posted on Weibo.

It has already begun to ferment gradually.

After a nearly hour-long speech, Chen Yu was still a bit thirsty. He then gave a brief summary and left the auditorium amidst cheerful applause.

"Weren't you just bragging? Why are you having a proper class now?!" Wang Yali asked curiously as she stayed by Chen Yu's side.

"How can I really brag for two or three hours? After all, it's my alma mater, and it was Principal Liu who personally invited me, so naturally I have to do my best," Chen Yu said with a light laugh.

"I knew you'd react like this. Where do we go next?!" Wang Yali nodded and smiled.

"I'll listen to you!" Chen Yu said, putting his mind at ease and preparing to spend some time with Wang Yali.

"Going shopping?!" Wang Yali asked with a smile.

“Sure, but at this time we can only go to the night market!” Chen Yu nodded and said.

"It doesn't matter, I'm not buying anything, I just want you to be with me!" Wang Yali said softly.

Chen Yu felt a pang of guilt. Perhaps shopping with his girlfriend is a normal thing for many people, but it was a luxury for Wang Yali.

"Let's go!" Chen Yu smiled gently and put his arm around Wang Yali's waist.

After disguising themselves, the two quietly arrived at the night market.

The two acted like an ordinary young couple and went unnoticed.

"Let's go eat mala tang!" The two stopped at a hot mala tang restaurant, and Wang Yali looked at Chen Yu excitedly.

"Sure!" Chen Yu naturally wouldn't refuse.

"You're Chen Yu?!" The proprietress recognized Chen Yu and became somewhat excited, exclaiming.

"Yes, that's me. But could you please not be so formal, sister? Please keep a low profile!" Chen Yu said with a bright smile.

"Okay~ okay~ let me calm down!" The proprietress was clearly a little excited and tried to calm herself down.

"Hey sister, I'm not the president of the country, why are you so excited to see me?!" Chen Yu said with a smile.

"No, you're my idol. I wouldn't be this excited if I met the Chairman!" the proprietress said with a smile.

"Please don't say that, I can't accept it. If someone hears this, I'll probably be in trouble again!" Chen Yu laughed.

"It's alright, what would you and the Crown Princess like to eat? It's on me today!" the proprietress said happily.

"I'll just have something to eat. There's no need for you to treat me or anything like that. You run a small business, and you don't earn much to begin with. You also have a family and children to support, so life isn't easy for you!" Chen Yu smiled and politely declined.

He really felt that taking advantage of the boss's wife was pointless; he didn't care about this small amount of money, as he could easily make hundreds of thousands in a minute!

"No, I have to treat you. I'm a big fan!" The proprietress was very stubborn and insistent.

"Boss lady, don't insist anymore, just listen to him. He really doesn't like this. He's a science student, he likes logic, and paying for food is a matter of course. Not paying doesn't make sense, and he'll be unhappy. Otherwise, we won't eat here!" Wang Yali said with a smile when she saw the two of them at an impasse. (To be continued.)
