"Believe me, I can definitely do this, and only I can do it."

After hearing these decisive words from Cao Zhiqiang, the big leader just smiled:

"Xiao Cao, I appreciate your ambition, ambition and talent, but sometimes it's not good to be too conceited.

The poems you wrote are indeed very famous, I admit that.

After all, the fact that you have become so famous and recognized by the majority of the public in such a short period of time has already proven your talent in poetry.

But you said that you are outstanding in music, and you also said that you would lead the trend of domestic pop songs and compete with Hong Kong and Taiwan pop songs. Isn't this a bit arrogant?"

Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly: "Big leader, since I dare to say this, of course I have something to rely on. As for whether I am arrogant...

Well, I brought a guitar today.

If you don't mind, I can sing some songs for you live.

These songs are all original songs composed by me. How about you listen to the quality first and then talk about other things?"

"Oh?" The senior leader raised his eyebrows, looked at the large long cloth bag placed by Cao Zhiqiang's feet, and smiled slightly, "It seems that you came well prepared today."

"That's necessary." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "It's such a rare opportunity for me to come to see you. How could I not be fully prepared?"

Having said this, Cao Zhiqiang opened his briefcase, took out a pamphlet again, and handed it over with both hands: "Boss, what is written above are the lyrics and sheet music of the songs I composed, and I will sing them in order.

This is given to you so that you can easily read the lyrics and music score.

Of course, if you don’t understand the music score, you can also read the lyrics, which will make it easier to listen to the song and understand the true meaning of the song."

The senior leader took the pamphlet, opened it and looked at it, and found that it was filled with lyrics and music scores.

"Interesting." The big leader smiled, then raised his head and looked at Cao Zhiqiang, "Xiao Cao, you are well prepared. It seems that you really understand music."

Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "As long as you like me, recognize my abilities, and know that I am not just bragging, but that I really have something to rely on, my goal will be achieved."

The big leader nodded: "Okay, since you are so confident, okay, you can try singing one."

Cao Zhiqiang then stood up, squatted down again, unzipped the guitar bag, and took the guitar out of it.

After that, Cao Zhiqiang first picked the tone of the strings and made sure there was no problem. Then he put the guitar on his back and stood up and said: "Big leader, first of all, the first song, "Proud Boy", please enjoy it."

After saying this, Cao Zhiqiang lowered his eyes and gently plucked the strings.

After a slow and sonorous prelude, Cao Zhiqiang started singing in a slightly hoarse voice:

At the beginning

Back then I was still

An innocent and crying child

ten years later

finally understood

As long as you try your best, there is no need to fail.

In a blink of an eye

everything has changed

New.asxs. The new world is right before your eyes

injured

Also shed tears

So what if you go crazy for your dreams this time?

At this point, Cao Zhiqiang deliberately stopped suddenly for a second.

After a second, Cao Zhiqiang suddenly plucked the guitar with big round fingers, and while emitting a burst of fierce music, he began to sing loudly again with a tearful voice:

Run, proud young man

There is a firm belief in the young heart

Let it burn

Proud blood

I want to sing the song of victory again

…

Run, proud young man

There is a firm belief in the young heart

Burn the proud blood

I want to sing the song of victory again

…

When Cao Zhiqiang finished singing the last verse, the guitar sound began to get lower and lower, but Cao Zhiqiang did not sing anymore, but read a monologue:

"Every proud young man has a dream of a great country!"

After finishing this monologue, Cao Zhiqiang officially ended the song.

When a song ended, Cao Zhiqiang raised his head, only to find that the leader had closed his eyes and his head was still shaking slightly, obviously he had listened.

At his age, this is quite difficult.

After all, the older people are, the less likely they are to be moved by external objects.

And now people of his age can still be moved by a song by Cao Zhiqiang, which shows how extraordinary this song is.

Of course, this song must be good. After all, it was a famous song that entered the charts in Cao Zhiqiang's previous life.

But the reason why the effect is so good is not just because the song itself is well written.

In addition to good lyrics and music score, the sound sung by Cao Zhiqiang's golden voice talent, plus the accompaniment sound produced by top-notch guitar players, this multi-pronged approach can maximize the power of this song and play a great role.

The ability to move people's hearts.

If the singer's voice is not good and the accompaniment is not good, then no matter how good the lyrics are and how wonderful the music score is, if you let a broken gong sound sing, I'm afraid it won't have the same effect.

It's like listening to the same Peking Opera. If you let a famous Peking Opera actor sing it, and if you let an ordinary man from the neighborhood sing it, the effect will be completely different.

However, Cao Zhiqiang is an expert in both singing and playing. He is a proper singer wherever he is. For someone of his level to sing "Proud Boy", the effect of one plus one is greater than two.

It is normal for a big leader to be impressed, unless he is tone-deaf and does not understand music at all.

However, considering that the big leader particularly loves listening to symphonies, it is obvious that he is a person who understands music.

As long as you understand music and appreciate music, you will not be able to stop the lethality of Cao Zhiqiang's live singing.

Therefore, it is not unfair at all for a well-informed leader to be moved by a young man's song and can't help but be intoxicated by it.

"Okay, okay!"

The song stopped for a while, then the leader slowly opened his eyes and nodded with emotion.

Immediately afterwards, the big leader looked at Cao Zhiqiang with a sigh of relief: "You sang really well. By the way, what's the name of this song?"

"Proud young man!" Cao Zhiqiang said, "The first song in the booklet I just gave you is..."

"Oh." The big leader picked up the pamphlet, read the title and lyrics carefully, and then patted the armrest, "Proud young man, such a proud young man!

Just reading the title is very interesting and inspiring.”

Having said this, the big leader looked up at Cao Zhiqiang with a smile: "I didn't expect that you are not only good at writing poems, but you are also so good at writing songs.

But it’s also true that poetry, poetry, and song are not separate categories.

It is completely understandable that you can write such good poems and a few good songs.

Of course, I didn’t expect you to sing so well. Your voice is not inferior to those of professional singers."

"Big Leader, you've given me the award." Cao Zhiqiang pretended to be modest, "I still can't compare with those professional singers. I just sing based on my feelings and sing casually, without any skills."

"It's better to sing casually. It's more sincere to express your feelings directly!" The senior leader praised with a smile.

"Especially such an exciting and high-spirited song. I haven't heard a new song like this for a long time. Today's pop songs are full of love songs about you and me.

I'm not saying that love songs are bad, but there are too many of them and they are everywhere, so it's not very good.

You, a proud young man, are very good. The lyrics are catchy and the style of the music is exciting and progressive. Even I was moved when I listened to it, as if I had become a young man again. It's amazing, it's amazing, it's really amazing."

Cao Zhiqiang scratched his head: "You say that, I'm really embarrassed."

"Are you still ashamed of yourself?" The big leader laughed, "When you spoke nonsense in front of me just now, you were very domineering.

You are a trend-setter. I thought you were really a bigot, but it turns out you are also shy."

"That's natural." Cao Zhiqiang smiled shyly, "Those words I told you before were all intentional. I was deliberately speaking out loud.

Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't be impressed by me and won't pay attention to my opinions and requests.

But I guarantee that those words I said before are just to attract your attention and are just a kind of strategic contempt.

But when it comes to my specific works, I still have to be more modest and cautious. This is a matter of tactical importance, don’t you think?"
