It is reported that Eason Chan sang the theme song for this film because he was deeply moved by the honest characters and sincere and warm friendship in the story, and then he cooperated. As one of the kings of Chinese music, Eason Chan sang "Summer Encountered Unexpectedly" this time, and invited top musician Liang Qiaobai as the producer, and co-wrote with gold medal lyricist Li Chaoxiong, which made the story of the film more and more exciting.
At Pingyao Film Festival, there was a domestic film, even though the subtitles were put in the last line, the audience was reluctant to leave, because everyone wanted to listen to the beautiful theme song at the end of the film completely before leaving. I'm talking about this film, which is the Summer I Meet Unexpectedly directed by Yi Han, and the theme song of the film with the same name is sung by the heavenly king Eason Chan.
Because of the "sense of story" in Eason Chan's voice, every film and television drama in which he sang the theme song will leave a deep impression on the audience. Up to now, every time we go to the airport to get a boarding pass, we will still subconsciously hum the song "Time is like a Song" sung by Eason to "Up to the Sky": "The weather is not as expected, but we have to fly if we want to go ..."
In the list of colorful movie theme songs in Eason Chan over the years, an unexpected summer is added.
The Summer I Encountered Unexpectedly tells a touching story of friendship between left-behind children in rural areas and young people at the bottom of society. It's not a movie with many stars in the traditional sense. However, this "unconventional" story about friendship deeply touched Eason Chan, and finally decided to sing the theme song of the same name for Summer Encounter.
As we all know, Eason Chan has always been quite demanding about his work. To make Eason Chan nod to take the next job, it is often not the external things such as remuneration and exposure that can touch him, but the essence of the job and whether there is anything that can impress him. Singing the theme song for "Unexpected Summer" is exactly the kind of work that belongs to Eason.
In order to get Eason Chan to sing the theme song for the film Looking Up, Deng Chao flew to Hong Kong to "visit the cottage" with the script and the newly cut film. After watching the movie, Eason, who has become a father, was touched by the love-hate relationship between father and son in the film, and was finally willing to sing, thus making "People who Believe in You" another classic of Chen.
The "intergenerational friendship" between the two protagonists, one big and one small, in the film "Unexpected Summer" is a relatively rare theme in mainland literary films, and it is actually very biased towards Eason Chan's sword. Although you are the king of music, Eason Chan once said in an interview that he "wants to be an actor more", and the selection of films he usually watches is also quite literary.
The phrase "When everything is crumbling" in the theme song of "Unexpected Summer" seems to be about the pains of growing up, which actually coincides with all kinds of doubts and anxieties of young people about the future and life. But Eason Chan's deduction of "being in the realm" subtly dispelled this feeling of "teetering" and played the role of anchoring the sea.
Eason Chan, who hasn't released a new Mandarin song for a long time, also let us hear his new progress in the song "Summer by chance". "Although the ash is cautious and cautious, it is blown by the wind, and the growth is, don't cry in public ..." Eason Chan sang the "trouble" that everyone must go through when growing up, and we almost cried.
