Chapter 274 – The Ups and Downs of Those Years
The recording of the program had already begun. In the well-prepared recording studio, Mo Fei and Luo Xin sat face to face, with several caras filming them from different angles.
“So when you released your first album, you were only 14 or 15 years old?” Luo Xin asked with a smile.
“14 years old”, Mo Fei nodded.
“Oh, that’s quite young! Why did you want to debut so early?” Luo Xin asked.
Mo Fei’s answers were always concise and to the point, but they were also easy to create awkward silences. Fortunately, as the host, Luo Xin has been using various thods to prompt Mo Fei and guide her to tell her own story.
“Because I love music,” Mo Fei still answered very simply. But after looking at Luo Xin’s eyes, she continued to expand on her answer, “Sister Luo Xin, that isn’t quite right. I didn’t debut at 14 years old. That was the age when I released my first official album. Before that, I had released so singles on my own or collaborated with other singers on New Year’s songs. When I was younger, I also participated in so TV station competitions.”
Luo Xin smiled and said, “I see. Our Mo Fe has been a musical genius since childhood!”
“I wouldn’t call myself a genius. I just started learning earlier than others, and was deeply influence by my mother,” Mo Fei said.
Luo Xin turned her head to look at the cara and smiled. “Here, let introduce to so viewers who may not know, Mo Fei’s mother is a singer from Hong Kong in the 1970s, Ms. Zhou ngyu.”
Not famous, but Luo Xin didn’t point it out.
“We all know that your first album did quite well, and you were even nominated for Hong Kong’s Newcor of the Year. But why didn’t you continue to develop in Hong Kong? Why did you choose to co to the mainland?” Luo Xin asked.
“Because I didn’t really win the Newcor of the Year award, and my subsequent developnt wasn’t smooth. At that ti, Sister Ling, who had just founded Tiani, thought that my singing skills had potential for developnt, so she brought to the mainland.” Mo Fei said lightly.
The real reason was actually more than that. After Mo Fei lost the award, so people within the company questioned her, thinking that Mo Fei had received preferential treatnt and resources due to her mother’s connections. This beca an excuse for those people to criticized the music director as well.
Of course, this rumor was not entirely baseless. Mo Fei’s mother did have a good relationship with the music director of the company at that ti. So, Mo Fei’s entry into the music industry started smoothly, and she almost won the Newcor of the Year award.
But Mo Fei herself was actually very hardworking. The gossip and rumors from these people made the 14 or 15-year-old Mo Fei feel overwheld. She isolated herself from these people with indifference, paying no attention to intrigues and struggles, and worked hard on her own music.
With Mo Fei’s strong and distinct personality, after the music director changed and she lost her backing, she was naturally isolated by the whole company. For two consecutive years, she had no chance to stand out.
This difficult situation continued until Niu iling appeared. Niu iling, who saw Mo Fei’s potential, brought her to the mainland.
Regarding this, Luo Xin asked, “So, in Tiani, in the mainland music market, you almost started from scratch. We all know that the first few years will be quite difficult. During this ti, do you have any particularly morable stories that you’d like to share with the audience?”
However, Mo Fei was very straightforward. She thought for a mont and said, “Difficult? It wasn’t too difficult, I think. Because my father required us to speak Mandarin at ho, so my Mandarin wasn’t very bad when I first ca. Everyone didn’t treat as a Hong Kong singer.”
This was a bit awkward, but fortunately, Luo Xin was experienced. She smiled and said, “Then, Mo Fei, do you still rember the first Mandarin song you sang after coming to the mainland?”
In this way, through repeated guidance, Luo Xin gradually sorted through Mo Fei’s singer career from the beginning to retirent, and then asked, “What was the reason that made you co back after a five-year retirent and start from scratch once again?”
Mo Fei had actually answered this question many tis during the release of her coback album a few months ago, but at that ti, her words had been modified by the company’s public relations team. This ti, Mo Fei wanted to speak from the bottom of her heart.
“Because I still love singing. Even though it’s been more than five years, I still yearn for that stage. It has been my dream since I was a child. So, no matter how difficult it is to start over, I want to co back and continue singing!” Mo Fei said.
“Indeed, we saw that the results of your coback album were not ideal, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a failure. But we are very happy to see that more than two months later, you have returned to the public eye with the help of a new song, ‘Across the Ocean to See You’.” Luo Xin’s voice fell, and the audience erupted into applause.
“To be honest, when I heard this song, I was very moved. Do you know why, Mo Fei?” Luo Xin asked with a smile.
“Why?”
“Because after so many years, listening to you sing ‘Across the Ocean to See You’ is like listening to you sing ‘Feel Like Strangers’ back then. It’s still the familiar and beautiful voice, still the familiar and sad emotions, and it’s still you, the familiar and beautiful Mo Fei. Five years have passed, and you haven’t changed at all!” Luo Xin said emotionally.
Mo Fei’s calm face was also slightly moved, and a misty glimr appeared in her eyes. She said softly, “Thank you, Sister Luo Xin.”
“Can you tell us how you managed to maintain such a good voice and singing ability after retiring for so many years?” Luo Xin asked.
“Because although I left the music industry, I still maintained the sa training routine every day, just like when I was working!” Mo Fei said simply.
Actually, this was the key point in the script!
Luo Xin tried to guide Mo Fei diligently, “Day after day? Year after year? How did you manage to persevere?”
Mo Fei, at this mont, rembered and followed Luo Xin’s lead, saying, “It’s still because my musical dream is still alive, and I never gave up.”
“Very well said! Because of her dream, Mo Fei has co this far, despite the ups and downs, despite the twists and turns. But she has been persisting, and I firmly believe that Mo Fei will succeed. Just like before she retired, one day, she will stand at the peak of the music industry, on the stage she longed for!” Luo Xin said with a smile.
After an emotional mont, Luo Xin suddenly beca mischievous. In the cara, she blinked mischievously like a young person and said, “Mo Fei, I’ve said so many good things about you. Shouldn’t you sing a new song for everyone here today?”
“Ah?” Mo Fei was a little slow to react to Luo Xin’s routine, as if the script shouldn’t have suddenly led to this.
“It’s rare to co to ‘Zhinxin Interview.’ You can’t just sing old songs here, right? Even singing ‘Across the Ocean to See You’ won’t do! I’ve heard that you’re preparing a new album, and all twelve songs are written by Mu Li’ang specifically for you, and each one is a masterpiece. If you don’t bring out a new song today, the audience won’t agree!” Luo Xin said with a smile.
Mo Fei understood and smiled softly, responding, “In that case, let sing a new song for everyone. This song also in line with my conversation with Sister Luo Xin tonight, and the lyrics truly express my innermost thoughts!”
“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s quickly move on to the most anticipated part… Music!”
“Thank you, Sister Luo Xin… ‘The Initial Dream,’ I hope everyone likes it!”
