Hair like snow

Wolf-toothed moon

"Wolf-toothed moon" refers to the fact that the moon is the same color as a wolf's tooth, rather than the shape of a wolf's tooth. , because although the wolf's teeth are in the shape of a sickle-shaped hook, they can only be regarded as half of the first or last quarter moon, and the roots of the other half of the deeply buried teeth are not in the same sickle-shaped hook shape, and the word "wolf tooth moon" It is also clear that the adjective is describing the color of the moon rather than its shape. Therefore, "wolf tooth moon" means that the color of the moon is coated with a layer of slightly mottled beige like a wolf tooth. It mainly uses the image of "wolf tooth" to emphasize the depression and vastness of the scenery.

It should be noted that the word "Langya Yue" has not yet been quoted in any ancient poems, so its original source cannot be indicated, nor can it be explained that in addition to describing the scenery, "Langya Yue" does not describe the scenery. Examples and usage of other rhetorical quotations. In other words, if someone wants to quote or explain the term "wolf tooth moon" in the future, they will only have the explanation and source here! "Wolf-toothed Moon" first appeared in the lyrics of Fang Wenshan's "Hair Like Snow": "Wolf-toothed Moon, the beauty is haggard, I raised my glass and drank all the wind and snow..." "Wolf-toothed Moon" describes the color of the moonlight like wolf teeth. general, emphasizing the depression and vastness of its scenery.

伊人

The origin of the phrase "伊人" can be traced back to the "Book of Songs? Qin Feng? Jianjia Pian" written more than 2,500 years ago: " The jianjia is green, and the white dew is like frost. The so-called Yiren is on the side of the water... "Yiren" refers to the other person, and its usage mainly refers to the person or the person you like, and it belongs to the third person. In ancient times, it was universal for both men and women. Nowadays, it mostly refers to young women. "Yiren" is the girl you fall in love with. Another borrowed use of the phrase "伊人" is to allude to a wise king or a virtuous minister, or it may also refer to the common people who follow good customs. For example, Tao Yuanming's "Poetry of Peach Blossom Spring" of the Jin Dynasty contains: "The Ying family is in chaos, and sages avoid it. In Huangqi's Shangshan, the beautiful lady passed away in the clouds..." The "beautiful lady passed away in the clouds" in the poem refers to " The people who lived in the Peach Blossom Spring also left the land of Qin."

Cause the Dust

According to the "Sixth Patriarch's Altar Sutra", Hong Ren, the fifth ancestor of Zen Buddhism, wanted to know the state of enlightenment of his disciples one day, so he asked his disciples to write verses and teach themselves. The great disciple Shenxiu was the first to write a verse: "The body is a bodhi tree, and the mind is like a mirror stand. I always brush it diligently to prevent it from attracting dust." The Sixth Patriarch Huineng retorted: "There is no bodhi tree, and the mirror is not a stand. "There is nothing in the first place, so how can it cause dust?" The meaning of Shenxiu's verse is that as a disciple of Buddhism, you should be clean and self-respecting, resist temptation, and not bring shame to Buddhism. The Sixth Patriarch Huineng believed that Buddhism is nothing. Since there is no representation of a concrete vessel from the beginning, where does the space come from to attract dust? The two men had different levels of enlightenment to Zen Buddhism. They are often cited by later generations to explain the extent of their understanding of Buddhism!

Beauty

"Beauty" is a term of metonymy. It mainly has two borrowed meanings. One refers to youth and youth; the other refers specifically to women and beauties. In Li Bai's poem "Gift to Meng Haoran": "My love for Master Meng is known all over the world. The beauty abandons the crown, and the white head lies on the pine cloud..." And in another of Li Bai's poems "Chang Gan Xing": "Butterfly in August Yellow, flying with grass in the west garden; feeling this hurts my heart, I sit and worry about the beauty of old age..." Beauty here refers to youth and youth. In addition, Bai Juyi's "Harem Ci" in the Tang Dynasty includes: "The dream is wet with tears, and the front hall sings in the middle of the night. The beauty is cut off before she gets old, and she will sit leaning against the smoked cage until the Ming Dynasty." and Wu Weiye's "Yuan" in the Qing Dynasty. Yuanqu>: "On that day in Dinghu, I abandoned the world, defeated the enemy, took the capital and went to Yuguan. I mourned that all the six armies were naked, and I was angry and turned into a beauty..." The beauty here refers to women and beauties. The idiom "A beauty has a bad fate" comes from the 70th chapter of "Journey to the West": "... It is true that since ancient times, beauties have a bad fate, and they are speechless to the east wind..." It means that since ancient times, beauties have had a bad fate, and their fate is usually bad. None of it is good.

Qingshi

The "Qing" here refers to bamboo slips, and "Shi" refers to history or history books. Because in ancient times before paper was invented, most general books were made of bamboo slips. Bamboo slips are bamboo pieces strung together, and the ancients compiled them into a book shaped like the word "book". They were used as writing tools by the ancients and were also used to record history. Therefore, later generations used Qingshi as the synonym for history books. The idiom "a name will remain in history" means to leave a reputation in history and be immortal. In addition, the word "history" also refers to history books. Because there is a layer of green bamboo on the surface of the bamboo, which contains moisture and is difficult to engrave, the ancients put the bamboo slips on the fire to bake. Fire-roasted bamboo slips are easy to carve and are insect-proof. At that time, people called this burning process "finalization", also called "history". Therefore, the word history has also been extended by later generations and compared to history books. For example, Wen Tianxiang's "Crossing the Lingding Ocean" contains: "...The emperor is afraid of the beach, and the emperor is afraid, and the Lingding Ocean sighs at Lingding. Since ancient times, no one has died, leaving a loyal heart to illuminate history."

三千< /p>

The original sentence of "Three Thousand Weak Waters" comes from Chapter 91 of "Dream of Red Mansions": "... Baoyu was stunned for a long time, and suddenly laughed and said: No matter how weak the water is, I will only take one ladle to drink. "The word "weak water" first appeared in "Shangshu". In the chapter "Yu Gong": "...lead weak water to Heli." In ancient times, weak water was used to refer to dangerous and distant rivers. Nowadays, "weak water" is extended to mean the river of love. "Three thousand" is derived from Buddhist terms, such as the Buddhist three thousand worlds, which describe the infinite and boundless vast universe that breeds life. "One scoop of drink" is found in "The Analects of Confucius".

"Yong Ye Chapter": "The Master said: "How virtuous! Return to Ye. One basket of food, one ladle of drink, living in a shady alley..." "There are three thousand weak waters, but only one ladle to drink." Its original meaning is "There are three thousand weak waters." Huali is so long, and although there is plenty of water, I can only take a scoop to drink. "Now it is extended to mean that although there are many people with whom I can date, I only like you, which refers to a person's single-minded relationship.

My hair is like snow

The song title of "My hair is like snow" is the same as "East Wind Breaks". It is original and is not plagiarized from any classical poetry or lyrics. It is mentioned in Jay Chou's "November" In the traditional Chinese version of Chopin's lyrics, there is a line of quotation under the title of the song "Hair Like Snow". The original sentence is as follows: "In a very frozen place, there is a woman in the snowy land, with a charming voice, white skin, and eyes like the moon. Its hair is like snow; there is a poem that sighs: Winter butterflies will be miserable forever. "This quotation does not come from any ancient historical data. It is actually a sentence in classical Chinese deliberately created by the author to create the classical temperament of "My hair is like snow". . The title of the song "Hair is like Snow" is inspired by Li Bai's poem "About to Enter the Wine": "If you don't see it, the water of the Yellow River comes up from the sky, rushing to the sea and never returns; if you don't see it, the mirror in the high hall has sad white hair, and the morning is like blue silk and the evening is full." Snow..." After reading it, the author lamented that his black hair turned into snow overnight, hence the phrase "hair like snow".

Invite the bright moon

In the lyrics of "Hair Like Snow": "Invite the bright moon, let the memories be bright..." and "I raised my glass and drank up the wind and snow..." These two sentences are borrowed from Li Bai's poem "Drinking Alone under the Moon": "A pot of wine among the flowers, drinking alone without a blind date; raising a glass to invite the bright moon, facing the shadow of three people..." The author breaks down "raising a glass to invite the bright moon" into "Toast" and "Invite the Moon" were respectively incorporated into the lyrics and used, but only based on the popularity and familiarity of the poems, and have nothing to do with the meaning of the original sentences. Raise a cup to the bright moon and make three people's shadows. The three people in this sentence refer to Li Bai, the moon, and Li Bai's own shadow.

Bronze Mirror

Modern people often use mirrors made of mercury mirrors to dress their makeup. However, before the advent of ancient glass mirrors, the ancients used copper-tin alloy casting methods to make copper. After the bronze mirror is poured, the mirror surface is polished to reflect the surface. It is used to correct clothes and groom appearance in daily life. There is a famous sentence related to bronze mirrors in "Tang Shu Wei Zheng Biography": "Taizong said to Liang Gong: 'Use copper as a mirror to dress your clothes; use ancient times as a mirror to know the rise and fall; use people as a mirror to know gains and losses. . I treasured these three mirrors to guard against my mistakes. Now Wei Zheng passed away, so one mirror was lost.'"

2. Chrysanthemum Terrace

In ancient China, "six" was the symbol. Yin number, "nine" is the yang number. On the ninth day of September, two yang numbers coincide with each other, so people call it "Double Ninth Festival", also called "Double Ninth Festival". The origin of the Double Ninth Festival can be traced back to the early Han Dynasty. After the beloved concubine of Han Emperor Liu Bang, Madam Qi, was brutally murdered by Empress Lu, the maid Jia who served Madam Qi was also expelled from the palace and married to a poor man. Jia Mou reported: In the palace, on the ninth day of September every year, people wear dogwood, eat bait, and drink chrysanthemum wine in order to live longer. Folks have the custom of climbing on the Double Ninth Festival, so it is also called the "Climbing Festival". Because everyone has to wear chrysanthemums to appreciate the chrysanthemums during the Double Ninth Festival, chrysanthemum stands are put down at high places to watch chrysanthemums. Chrysanthemum stands are all over the city. The theme song of Golden Armor fills the city with Golden Armor Story Synopsis The film tells the story of the Tang Dynasty. The emperor, queen and general are the three core characters in the film. The prototype of the story comes from Cao Yu's "Thunderstorm", but the background is set in the Tang Dynasty. Yuan Chao (Jay Chou) is the most skilled general in martial arts, so he was appointed as the head of the Royal Palace Guards...

3. Fireworks are easy to cold

Internet rumors Fang Wenshan explains this song "Fireworks" The allusions behind the lyrics and story of "Yi Leng" come from "Luoyang Jialan Ji". The fact is that there is no such story in the main text and notes of Luoyang Jialanji. This statement is a false statement made up by Fang Wenshan or netizens to hype up the song by wrapping it in the guise of classical culture.

"Fireworks Easily Cold" has nothing to do with "Luoyang Jialan Ji", but the fictional story describes the thousand years of prosperity and collapse that Yang Xuanzhi wrote more than 1,500 years ago. In the ancient capital of Luoyang, the love story between a royal general and the woman he admires. After the general met the woman by chance, the two fell in love at first sight and made a private commitment for life. At this time, the general was recruited by the court to fight on the border. In the years of war and chaos, the imperial capital Luoyang had been reduced to ruins and dilapidated. In the end, the woman insisted on staying behind after the general failed to meet him. , became a nun, and when the general returned from the storm and found the ancient Jialan Temple where the woman had become a monk, she had already passed away. The general could only listen to the rain falling one after another outside the ancient Jialan Temple, recalling the past when he envied others, and lamented that human affairs were just like fireworks, easily cold and easy to separate.

Historical Background

The story of "Fireworks Easily Cold" took place during the Southern and Northern Dynasties. At that time, the Southern Song Dynasty headed by Emperor Wu Liu Yu of the Song Dynasty, and the Northern Wei Dynasty headed by Emperor Daowu Tuoba Gui, It was a divisive period in Chinese history. Beginning in 420 AD, due to the expansion of power and the annexation of territory, wars between the Southern and Northern Dynasties continued. During this period, the Southern Dynasties suffered more defeats and fewer victories. In 422 AD, Emperor Wu of the Song Dynasty Liu Yu died of illness. Emperor Tuoba Si of the Ming Yuan Dynasty in the Northern Wei Dynasty launched a large-scale attack on the Song Dynasty, and successively captured Jintang (Luoyang), Hulao, and Huatai. In 430, Emperor Wen of the Song Dynasty Liu Yilong regained the lost territory south of the Yellow River, forcing the Wei army to retreat. The Song Dynasty successively occupied Huatai, Luoyang, and Hulao. In the same year, the Northern Wei Dynasty counterattacked across the board, conquering Jintang, Luoyang, Hulao and Huatai.

In 449 AD, Tuoba Tao defeated Rouran, and then directed his troops against Liu Song. In order to prevent the Wei army from going south, Emperor Wen of the Song Dynasty sent troops to attack the north.

Because Emperor Wen of the Song Dynasty used his merits, he poked good generals, and killed Pei Fangming and other famous generals, which greatly reduced morale. In addition, with the continuous battles, the national strength gradually declined. In the eleventh year, he sent troops to attack Wei. The Wei army launched a counter-attack and forced its way across the Yellow River with millions of people, approaching step by step. The Song army had no choice but to retreat south. From then on, Emperor Wen of the Song Dynasty was no longer able to compete for the Central Plains.

In 493 AD, Emperor Xiaowen of Wei Tuoba Hong moved the capital to Luoyang. Frequently went south to attack Qi (in 479, Xiao Daocheng, the leading general in the Song Dynasty, established the Qi Dynasty on behalf of the Song Dynasty). So far, the Northern Wei and Southern Qi had been engaged in a 23-year war...

And the story of "Fireworks Easily Cold" The story is a description of a poignant love story in that war-torn era.

It started to rain, and the general looked at the mist and rain outside the door, and his thoughts drifted to a far away place...

During the reign of Emperor Wen of the Song Dynasty, a city-defending general was ordered to garrison Luoyang City. I met a local woman, hit it off instantly, and soon made a private engagement for life. At this time, the Northern Wei Dynasty invaded, and the general was ordered to go out. When leaving, he took the woman's hand and said: "After I win the battle, I will come back to marry you..."

The two said goodbye, and the woman stayed in the city. At the door, I saw the general sitting on the saddle and leaving without looking back...

The general left for several months. During this period, Liu Song retreated steadily, and Emperor Wen of the Song Dynasty killed two people in a row. General, the Northern Wei Dynasty launched an all-out attack and forcibly crossed the Yellow River. Emperor Wen of the Song Dynasty ignored the advice of his courtiers and launched a strong attack. He was defeated and Luoyang fell. Emperor Wen of the Song Dynasty had no choice but to withdraw his troops, while the seriously injured general fled to his hometown. After the general recovered from his injuries, he originally wanted to return to the court, but at this time, Liu Song's situation was over, and there was only a dead end for him to go back. The general had never been afraid of death, but thinking about the oath he had made and being disheartened by Emperor Wen of the Song Dynasty's indiscriminate killing of good generals, he had no choice but to commit himself to a foreign country, hoping that one day the war would end and he would return to her side.

At the gate of the city where they said goodbye, there was a woman who often sat on a stone slab waiting for her beloved to come back. Whenever she met someone returning from the front, the woman would ask if she had seen the general, but there was no news of the general returning victoriously.

The woman never gave up and still waited day after day. Decades later, the woman finally became a nun after staying with the general. This story was passed down from one person to another, and finally reached the ears of the general.

But the general cannot go back. At this time, the Northern Wei Dynasty has moved its capital to Luoyang. This is an indisputable fact. The war between the Northern and Southern Dynasties is still going on. He must survive until the day the war ends...

I don’t know how many years passed, but the war finally ended.

For the first time, the general returned to the place he thought about day and night.

Wearing civilian clothes, he came to the dilapidated and mottled city gate. He walked to the place where they parted, next to the long withered tree, and touched the piece of wood that she had been wearing every day. The stone slab on which he sat while waiting for his return...

The elegant sound of the flute came from the outskirts of the city. People passing by told the general that there was a woman here who had been waiting for her beloved to return...

< p>When he set foot on a familiar land again, his inner feelings were so complicated, as if everything had returned to the time when he was envious of others...

He was looking for her in this dilapidated and lonely city. , but could not be found, the rain from the sky fell one after another...

He believed that she had been waiting for him...

The old man in Gucheng told him that she had always been alone... Until the day he died...

The monk returned to the futon and sat quietly, beating the wooden fish...

The rain from the sky was still falling, falling on On the stone slab outside the Zen room...

The topic outside the song

In 547 AD, Yang Xuanzhi, Sima of Fujun Mansion in the Northern Wei Dynasty, passed through Luoyang and saw "the city walls collapsed and the official offices overturned." , temples ashes, temples, towers, and ruins." I saw "the walls were covered with wormwood, the alleys were filled with thorns, wild beasts burrowed on the deserted steps, and mountain birds nested in the trees in the courtyard." I lamented, "There are more than a thousand temples outside and inside, but today they are few and far between, and the bells are ringing. "Rarely heard of", looking back on the past, he wrote "Luoyang Jialan Ji". Is this book just about separation and sorrow like "Fireworks Easily Cold"? If so, it would not have such a high historical status. Yang Xuanzhi used the rise and fall of Buddhist temples to reflect the rise and fall of the country, allowing us to see how the powerful Northern Wei Dynasty perished in forty years.

When it comes to arrogance and extravagance, the first thing people think of is the Western Jin Dynasty. Shi Chong and others were keen on fighting for wealth, and high-ranking officials were extravagant. The Northern Wei Dynasty went further than the Western Jin Dynasty, and it is said that Yin Jian was not far away. However, the Northern Wei Dynasty not only failed to learn the lessons of the Western Jin Dynasty, but also made the same mistakes again. According to "Luoyang Jialan Ji", in the Northern Wei Dynasty, "the princes and princesses of the imperial family were good at the wealth of mountains and seas, and lived in the forests and rivers of Sichuan. They competed to build gardens and houses, and competed with each other." Gaoyang Wang Yuanyong was as wealthy as the enemy, and his official residence was the same as the imperial palace. , the garden can be compared to a forbidden garden, with six thousand servants and five hundred maidens. The roads are blocked by ceremonial guards when going out. There is singing and dancing all day and night when returning. A meal is worth tens of thousands. "Since the Han and Jin Dynasties, kings have never been extravagant."

Whenever Wang Yuanchen of Hejian competed with Yuan Yong for wealth, he once said: "Shi Chong of the Jin Dynasty is a commoner, but he can still tuck pheasants and foxes, paint eggs and carve firewood; besides, I, the king of the Wei Dynasty, do not want to be extravagant. ? "He has more than ten horses, all with silver troughs and gold rings. On the windows are jade phoenixes holding bells and golden dragons spitting pendants. Yuan Chen often entertained kings with banquets. There were dozens of wine vessels including crystal bowls, agate cups, glass bowls, and red jade bowls. They were exquisitely made and were not found in the Central Plains. They were all brought from the Western Regions. He also displayed female musicians, famous horses and rare treasures, and invited kings to visit. There was countless money and silk in the treasury.

He said something very conceited to Wang Yuanrong of Zhangwu: "If you don't hate me for not seeing Shi Chong, hate that Shi Chong doesn't see me." This Yuanrong also regarded himself as a wealthy man. After returning from Yuan Chen's house, he sighed and fell ill for three days. .

When Empress Dowager Hu was in power, she asked officials to go to the treasury to carry silk and give them as much as they carried. All the ministers tried their best to carry it, but Yuan Rong and Chenliuhou Li Chong carried it too much and injured their ankles.

The magnificent temples recorded in the book were all built with money. The vitality of the Northern Wei Dynasty was quickly exhausted in such squandering. The Six Towns Uprising dealt a heavy blow to the rule of the Northern Wei Dynasty. The Erzhu family's rebellion destroyed the city of Luoyang and also destroyed the Northern Wei Dynasty. It only took forty years from the peak of the Northern Wei Dynasty to the end of the Northern Wei Dynasty - it was like fireworks.

4. Hongchen Inn

Speaking of Fang Wenshan’s lyrics, I think his lyrics are becoming more and more profound. Previous classic Chinese style poems such as "Dongfeng Po" and "Blue and White Porcelain" It is relatively easy to understand, but the later "Fireworks Easily Cold", including this song "Red Dust Inn", are more difficult to understand. I think it may be that Fang Wenshan's lyrics are getting bigger and bigger as he writes. "Fireworks Are Easy to Cold" is adapted from "Luoyang Jialan Ji" written more than 1,400 years ago, while "Red Dust Inn" is about singing a legend of the world, and his horizons are becoming wider and wider. The momentum is getting more and more magnificent. It has been more than ten years since Jay Chou debuted, but Fang Wenshan is still the best writer of Chinese style. Nowadays, Chinese style is popular, and a large number of poets write about Chinese style, but none of them are as good as Fang Wenshan. I remember that Fang Wenshan seemed to have written lyrics for other singers. I don’t know who that singer was. Only Fang Wenshan's lyrics and Jay Chou's singing are the best combination.

Fang Wenshan's lyrics are becoming more and more profound and difficult to pronounce. It is really difficult for Jay Chou, who was born in "Nunchaku" to sing. I think "Blue and White Porcelain" and "East Wind Breaks" (including "Chrysanthemum Terrace") are relatively easy to sing, while "Fireworks Easily Cold" and "Red Dust Inn" are more difficult to sing.

"Red Dust Inn" seems to be about a person who is in the world and is tired of the world. However, just as those celebrities who wrote poems praising Tao Yuanming all pursued making achievements, Fang Wenshan wrote this mentality perfectly, " How can a person who has a country in his heart be happy and carefree?" He always thinks about how he can be happy with fame and fortune. This is still the case in the entertainment industry. You have to sing and act at all costs, and expose yourself just to attract popularity. If you really want to quit the world, you will end up like Miss Tang Lijun in "Party A and Party B".

The sentence "Fighting in the arena is nothing more than fame and fortune" is really the finishing touch and hits the nail on the head.

5. Blue and white porcelain

Fang Wenshan met several friends who appreciate antique art, and sometimes he worked with them on bronze, sometimes on bronze.

"I'm Very Busy" album Cover

During thousands of years of chatting about the past and the present, including Song porcelain and sometimes Ming and Qing furniture, he was inspired to use those handed down Chinese artworks as the title of the song. At that time, the first thing Fang Wenshan thought of was bronze wares. Originally, he wanted to name the song after the bronze wares that had been cast since the Yin and Shang Dynasties. The thickness of bronze was used to symbolize the steadfastness of love; the mottled patina of thousands of years was used to metaphor the vicissitudes of the world; Incomprehensible inscriptions on the vessels illustrate the mystery of the oath. But when he first started writing, he found that the melody of Jay Chou's song was gentle, euphemistic, elegant and refined, so that all that came to his mind were images of misty Jiangnan. And because the bronzes at that time were also made into weapons for killing enemies, the word "bronze" seemed too heavy and clumsy, full of the smell of gunfire, so the lyrics that were still being conceived were abandoned before they were written.

Later, Fang Wenshan chose Ru Kiln porcelain, which was very popular during the Song Dynasty, mainly because of its rarity. Due to factors such as the war, changes in the glaze formula and the firing process, there are only about 70 Ru kiln treasures handed down in the world, which can be called a national treasure and extremely precious. But the problem arises again, because the pure and high-quality Ru kiln has only one color, which is "sky blue", without any fancy decorations at all, and the shape is simple and elegant. In my opinion, it is like the works of today's minimalist masters. Although it has a simple connotation and a durable texture, it always feels inadequate to describe the weird and changeable love that is both love and hate. Although I did not use Ru Kiln as the title of the lyrics in the end, in the process of collecting writing materials, I was inspired to write the chorus because of the phrase "After the rain, the sky is blue and the clouds break the virginity, this color is the future." The first sentence of "The sky is blue and waiting for misty rain". This remark is said to have originated from Song Huizong, because the Ru kiln at that time was exclusively used by the Song royal family. After the kiln officials finished firing the Ru kiln porcelain, they asked Song Huizong to name the color of the porcelain. Huizong commented: "The sky is blue after the rain." Broken virginity, this color is the future." From then on, azure became the color name designated by Ru Kiln Porcelain. But later Fang Wenshan gave up using Ru Kiln as the title of the song, not only because its characteristics are not suitable for lingering love, but the name of Ru Kiln is not poignant enough. After several twists and turns, the title was finally determined to refer to blue and white porcelain, which was first fired in the Tang Dynasty and has been the most representative export art in early China for more than a thousand years.

After Fang Wenshan decided on the lyrics of "The sky is waiting for misty rain", it didn't take long for him to write the second line of the chorus "And I'm waiting for you", so the key to the first line of the chorus The words are born from conception: "The sky is blue waiting for misty rain, and I am waiting for you." Because the azure color described in the lyrics cannot appear on its own, it must wait patiently for a rain that does not come when it will come, so that it can appear as azure color in the clear sky when the cumulus clouds have dispersed. Because the sky will appear blue only after it rains and the sky clears, and it will rain first before the sky will be blue. But Fang Wenshan said the other way around, if you want to see the sky blue, you can only wait for it to rain first.

Also, the reason why "Misty Rain" is used instead of "Raining" is purely because the artistic conception of "Misty Rain" is more beautiful.

The word "re" is used in the lyrics by Fang Wenshan from the famous verse of the Sixth Patriarch Huineng: "Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not a stand; there is nothing in the beginning, where is it?" The experience gained from "Into the Dust". When writing the sentence "The plantain provokes the shower door knocker, causing the patina", Fang Wenshan first used the classical Chinese phrase "The plantain provokes the shower door knocker, causing the patina" to capture the scene, and then continued with the next paragraph, which is more vernacular, "And I passed by the Jiangnan The town messed with you” thought it was a confrontation. Because the plantain and the door knocker are both static objects, they can only passively wait for the showers and wait for the patina to slowly oxidize after years of erosion; but the personal pronoun "I" is different from the plantain and the door knocker, because "I" can be free. It's mobile, so I happened to encounter you through a small town in Jiangnan and "provoked" you. I didn't passively wait for you, but took the initiative to get to know you. Therefore, although the verb "provoke" is also used, its activeness and passivity are completely different. Moreover, in this passage, Fang Wenshan uses the word "provoke" three times in a row. The meaning of the word is the same, but the usage is different, which is full of interest. . In short, Fang Wenshan wrote this song very hard, but he also felt very accomplished

6. Thousands of Miles Away

The lyrics of "Thousands of Miles Away" describe the war of a great era. The love between children and daughters, the sentence "Where is the deep love, life and death are hard to guess" points out that love in the war years often ended in tragedy. The lyrics delicately describe the feelings and sentiments of a lost love, and Fang Wenshan's smooth writing adds a lot of points to the song. Continuing the tragedy of the previous album "Hair Like Snow", Jay Chou and Fei Yuqing sang the tragedy of the great era in a male-male duet. This duet song performed by Fei Yuqing and Jay Chou, who have completely different styles of music, can stand the test of time better.

The Chinese style created by Thai bells kicks off the story, and Fang Wenshan’s poetic lyrics describe the era that belonged to Xu Zhimo and Lu Xiaoman, a war-torn era, when lovers separated for safety, "I I'm sending you away, thousands of miles away." Who would have thought that we would never see each other again. Jay Chou invited Fei Yuqing to sing this classical-style love song, which is a masterpiece. The touching melody and images were all handled by Jay Chou. From the music to the idea of ??the story, and then to the shooting of the music movie, Jay Chou did it all in one go, weaving this touching song and tearful story. A period drama.

7. Dongfeng Po

The name "Dongfeng Po" comes from an ancient folk song form called Qu Po. The sentence "After you leave, the wine will be warm and I will miss you and be thin" comes from Li Qingzhao's sentence "It should be green, fat, red and thin".

8. Wushuang

The MV of the song "Wushuang" tells a story of revenge for love, but there is no female character in the whole story.

9. The End of the World

The plot is performed by Darren Qiu Kaiwei, Jay Chou's younger brother. It describes that this ancient town is holding a festival related to Hanfu. Darren plays a photographer who shuttles around the festival to capture the activities. Wonderful scene, but accidentally captured a heroine who made him attracted. From then on, the camera secretly captured many scenes of girls, and the heroine was a painter who came to this event to sketch. When she discovered Darren, she couldn't help but start I drew him, so the two met in the poetic ancient town of Xitang

10. Preface to Lanting

"It has nothing to do with the wind and the moon. I will write the preface and wait for you to return to the shore of Xuanbi Yijue" "Thousands of Waves"

Following "Chrysanthemum Terrace" and "Blue and White Porcelain", Fang Wenshan then writes Chinese style with the theme of "Orchid Pavilion Preface" with the best calligraphy! The beautiful words and sentences are amazing! Using the flowing lines of calligraphy, the meticulous ancient woman's gentle steps are described as she opens the door and comes out under the moon; and then uses "A thousand-year-old monument is easy to touch, but it is difficult to touch your beauty, and the true work can never be given to anyone" to describe the woman's unparalleled beauty. It can be imitated and compared; "Yan Nanfei turned around and brushed off your tears", which is a metaphor for the Eastern Jin Dynasty in Wang Xizhi's time. It was the time when the royal family moved southward and was in a state of decline, leaving the beautiful lady in the north to "sleep with a handful of moonlight in her hands and memories"; although It has nothing to do with romance, I am waiting for you to reply to a poem with a preface, but when I am hanging the pen in my hand and about to write it down, the thoughts raging in my heart are like thousands of waves on the shore.
