Chapter 124 Concert Commemorating Leslie Cheung

When they arrived, it was already afternoon. The person who came to pick them up directly sent them to the hotel they had booked. The hotel was not far from the Red Hall. They lived in a suite and Yang Rui also stayed in a standard room. Yuan Yan also lived in this hotel. She originally had a house in Hong Kong, but now for convenience, she booked a room here first to rest.

When we arrived at the hotel, we first came to the suites of the two of them. Chen Ziyue called Yuan Yan in Hong Kong and learned that she was not in the hotel, so she had already gone to the report.

Because this commemorative performance consists of many celebrity guests, not someone’s personal concert. Everyone’s time and schedule are tight, so it is impossible to have more time to come in advance. Therefore, basically most celebrities have reported this afternoon to learn about the detailed arrangements of the organizer, go to the stage temporarily, and rehearse once.

Yuan Yan was not here and was going to see the concert again in the evening. The two of them suggested resting in the hotel and going out together tomorrow.

Although Yang Rui was not sure whether Yuan Yan was intentionally avoiding him, no matter what, he must meet tonight. He has now been much more at ease. Even if he meets him, I believe he can remain calm in front of them.

Since it was a rest, Yang Rui was about to go back to his room, but Bei Zhen grabbed him.

"Where are you going? You just went to bed in the car. Can you go back to sleep?" Bei Zhen gave him a blank look, "Don't leave, I have something to ask you."

Yang Rui didn't know what she had to ask, and sat down with them on the sofa in the hall.

"Zi Yue, call the guest room and order coffee." Bei Zhen ordered Chen Zi Yue, then looked at Yang Rui, "Did you go to Beijing during the Chinese New Year?"

She lives with Chen Ziyue and is a good friend. It is natural to know. Yang Rui nodded and asked back: "Ziyue has told you, right? Then still ask me knowingly?"

Bei Zhen sighed: "Well, it was Ziyue who told me that you flew to Beijing to destroy her blind date. It's a love awesome!"

Yang Rui fainted and saw Chen Ziyue calling, and lowered his voice and said, "Sister, don't you just want to make random couples? Is there any infatuation? Yuan Yan lied to me to help."

"Really?" Bei Zhen seemed to not believe his words. After waiting for a while, seeing that Chen Ziyue had finished calling, he waved to her, "Ziyue, come here."

Chen Ziyue sat down next to her, "What are you talking about?"

Yang Rui saw that she was not arrogant and cold in school. She sighed secretly, she was afraid that except at home, there was only Yuan Yan, and that would happen when Bei Zhen was together?

"Hehe, what about you? Didn't you say that during the Chinese New Year, Yang Rui went to Beijing to find you and ruined your blind date. Did you feel very touched? I was talking about this with Yang Rui." Bei Zhen held her hand and smiled.

Chen Ziyue's face turned slightly red and she said coquettishly: "Sister Bei, what are you saying? I mean I am very grateful. He is here to help me." As she said that, she quickly glanced at Yang Rui.

Yang Rui spread his hands. "Sister, is that right? I'm not going to sabotage. I'm a guest appearance as an appointment. By the way, Ziyue, your father didn't scold you for the last time, right?"

They have not had a formal chat since that time, so Yang Rui doesn't know what the consequences are. He said it a bit too exaggerated that day, and I wonder if it will have any adverse effects on Chen Ziyue.

Chen Ziyue shook her head, "No, he is a little unhappy, but I don't care about him."

Bei Zhen interrupted and said, "Yang Rui, I have heard Ziyue say it. What you said at that time was too much. Ziyue was scolded by her family because of your words."

"I wasn't trying to make trouble at that time. I didn't think so much, so how could I know that Tan Feiyang would completely complain?" Yang Rui was helpless.

Bei Zhen leaned closer and said with a smile: "What? Do you want to pay for your debt? You have called him "wife" in public, and you still say a hundred days of kindness for a couple. They have said so many ugly things on their backs. They have defiled Ziyue's innocent reputation and will not admit it now?"

"Sister, what do you mean?" Yang Rui heard that her words seemed to have something else.

Chen Ziyue looked at her a little embarrassed and strangely, and she couldn't say anything.

"What does it mean? Hehe, of course you are responsible for Ziyue. You just don't care about it. You said in public that you are someone else's boyfriend. Now you haven't found someone again for more than a month. Isn't it too much?" Bei Zhen continued to intervene.

"sister!"

"Sister Bei..."

Yang Rui and Chen Ziyue shouted at the same time, both embarrassed.

Bei Zhen grabbed the two of them together, "Haha, you two are embarrassed, then I will help you find out!"

Yang Rui smiled bitterly, you don’t understand the situation at all!

"Zi Yue, I think my sister has a matchmaker's addiction today. Fortunately, we are familiar friends, otherwise she would be embarrassed by her."

"Yes." Chen Ziyue responded lowly and pulled her hand back.

Bei Zhen smiled proudly when he saw them. To be honest, if he introduced his girlfriend to Yang Rui, she would naturally agree with Chen Ziyue instead of Liu Jia. Although she also knew Liu Jia, she was far from familiar with Chen Ziyue. She thought Chen Ziyue was very good, but people who were generally unfamiliar with her did not understand her. If Yang Rui and Ziyue were together, it would be very helpful to his future career development.

"By the way, I'll ask you another question. Ziyue said, did you live in the same room with Yan that night?" Bei Zhen remembered another thing. She kept asking, but she didn't remember asking.

It’s really a pot that doesn’t open to mention. Yang Rui just didn’t know how to face this. Now when he heard her problem, he could only remain calm and act helplessly: “Sister, you are taking things out of context today. We live in a suite, but she slept in the room and I slept in the sofa in the hall.”

When he said this, he felt a little guilty. Although he was sure that Yuan Yan would not tell Bei Zhen about such a thing-at least he would not tell Bei Zhen he knew for the time being, he was not sure whether Chen Ziyue had discovered anything. When he left, he sent a message to Chen Ziyue and asked her to go to the hotel room to take care of Yuan Yan.

When he was paying attention, he found that Chen Ziyue's expression was not strange. She smiled, "Sister Bei, you are joking again."

Yang Rui didn't know what else she would say, so he simply said goodbye: "Every, I'll go back to my room. I won't have to say that I'll live in the same room with you two next time."

In the evening, the three of them came out to have a meal and then went to the Red House.

The two of them are quite looking forward to the performance tonight, because there are many superstars participating. At this age, Yang Rui is naturally very interested, but because he thinks that he has to face Yuan Yan after the concert, he is not so enthusiastic.

The gymnasium is crowded. Because it is a concert commemorating Leslie Cheung, there are not only many local fans, but also many mainland and overseas fans who come here specifically.

Because the three of them got VIP tickets, they had a good seat in the front row. After entering the venue, they also received the performance list.

In the noisy atmosphere, Yang Rui carefully looked at the program list and saw what other "giant ape" appeared besides Yuan Yan.

This local concert was initiated by Leslie Cheung's agent during his lifetime, Ms. Chen Shufen, who invited Leslie Cheung's friends to appear. In addition to these old stars, there are also some idols like Yuan Yan who have become popular in the past two years. More than a dozen stars sing Leslie Cheung's more than 20 representative works of various periods.

Yang Rui actually had Japanese among the guests of the performance, and he couldn't help but wonder, "What are this Japanese people doing? Can you sing Cantonese songs?"

Bei Zhen gave him a blank look, "It's rare! Leslie Cheung was very well-known in Japan during his lifetime, and the sales of records, movies, concerts and photo albums were very good."

"Is it true or false?" Chen Ziyue was also a little surprised.

"In 2000, the Japanese organizer said that he was an "Asian superstar". His attitude and treatment were not to mention other Asian stars. Even the Hollywood superstar Schwarzenegger on the stage was far better than that. A popular Japanese idol group came to Hong Kong to hold a concert, and was surprised to see his idol Leslie Cheung..." Bei Zhen introduced Leslie Cheung before.

Yang Rui and Chen Ziyue were both a little surprised. Leslie Cheung had passed away for many years. Although they had heard his songs and watched his movies, their influence on him during the ever-changing entertainment era was blurred.

After watching so many celebrity guests and listening to some introductions from Bei Zhen, Yang Rui and Chen Ziyue became much more solemn. As the concert began, they listened with other fans and sang familiar songs.

Almost all fans of Leslie Cheung’s past were fans. Unlike the general concerts that were mainly young people in their teens and twenty years old, this was mainly adults in their thirties and forties. When they heard familiar songs, the singers of that year no longer existed. Many of those who had watched their brother’s concerts in the Red Hall before couldn’t help but cry while singing.

Perhaps... what they mourn is not only Leslie Cheung who has been away for many years, but also their youth that has gradually faded away!

In such occasions, Yuan Yan is not the biggest brand in terms of qualifications and fame, so she is not the finale, but in the middle. She sang two Mandarin songs, "Don't mention the past" in Farewell My Concubine, and "The Moon Represents My Heart" in the concert. Leslie Cheung has achieved great achievements in Cantonese songs, and it is difficult to find Mandarin songs and Mandarin versions (Japanese and English songs are even harder to find), and these two are undoubtedly one of the most widely circulated Mandarin songs.
