The theme song selected by Ye Zhiqiu for "The Return of the Great Sage" is called "Wukong".

In a previous life, this song, sung by singer-songwriter Dai Quan, debuted in an original music variety show and soon became popular all over the country.

Many netizens will substitute it for the movie "Journey to the West: The Return of the Monkey King" because the images of Sun Wukong portrayed by the two have many similarities.

——Rebellious and unruly.

On the stage, as Ye Zhiqiu's figure gradually became clearer under the spotlight, the information of the song slowly emerged in the live broadcast.

Song title: "Wukong".

Lyrics/Composer: Ye Zhiqiu.

For the audience who are familiar with Ye Zhiqiu, there is nothing surprising about this. What surprised everyone was the one-line introduction under the song title.

——"Theme song of "The Return of the Great Sage"".

Seeing the words "The Return of the Great Sage", the curiosity of many netizens was suddenly aroused.

Previously, all netizens knew about this movie was a highly popular promotional poster released by "The Autumn of Light", but after all, the information revealed on the poster was limited...

Moreover, the theme song of the previous animated film "Big Fish and Begonia" was sung by Yu Caiwei. Now it is Ye Zhiqiu's turn to perform in person, which also gives fans a little more expectation.

At this time, in a residence in Huahai City.

Shu Shu, a movie critic and a well-known fan of Ye Zhiqiu, was sitting in front of the computer with her long legs curled up and her knees bent, watching the live broadcast of the "Monkey Award" award ceremony on the computer in front of her without blinking.

This "royal sister-type" film critic has gradually transformed into the shape of Ye Zhiqiu after being "trained" in one film after another. Now, she pays immediate attention to any work about Ye Zhiqiu.

On the stage, with the appearance of Ye Zhiqiu, the number of barrages suddenly surged, many of which were "so handsome" and the like.

Unlike when he delivered his acceptance speech, Ye Zhiqiu changed his costume for the sake of performance.

Now he is wearing a jacket that is somewhat similar to the "Mao suit" style. There are embroidered patterns with ancient charm such as auspicious clouds on the clothes. The leader's mouth is outlined with gold silk thread, which makes the whole person look very handsome without looking too out of place. Old-fashioned.

In the room, Shu Shu snorted softly as he watched the messages on the screen, feeling that this generation of netizens was too vulgar.

shallow!

It's just skin, if there's anything good about it, she's different. What she appreciates is Ye Zhiqiu's talent.

This is the most attractive thing about a man, okay!

With this thought in her mind, her hands were extremely skilled and she posted a barrage saying "I want to give birth to a monkey for Ye Zhiqiu".

——No one knows me on the Internet anyway!

After delivering the most hooligan barrage in the audience, the 28-year-old lady did not blush at all. She looked at Ye Zhiqiu on the screen for a few more times before turning her attention to the song.

In the center of the stage, Ye Zhiqiu stood quietly with his head slightly lowered, his expression unclear, and a few beams of lights stretched his shadow very long.

As the gentle piano accompaniment played, Ye Zhiqiu raised the microphone in his hand, and a low, slightly hoarse singing voice came out.

[The moon splashes the galaxy, the long road is long,

The wind and smoke are exhausted, and the lonely shadow is fading

Who told me to be extraordinary,

Who makes me love-hate dilemma,

Later, my liver and intestines were severed...]

In the room, Shu Shu carefully savored the first few lyrics and felt... a little dull.

It's not about the lyrics, but the overall atmosphere created by the previous song and the accompaniment.

In her memory, the Monkey King, the Monkey King, could change his mind 72 times, dared to cause trouble in the Heavenly Palace, and was omnipotent. However, the first few lines of Ye Zhiqiu clearly depicted a quiet and cold mood.

It gives people the feeling that under the cold moonlight, the wind and smoke are gone, and in the long road, a lonely figure is pacing forward...

The image is very strong, but I always feel that something is missing.

Ye Zhiqiu's singing continued to sound, and at this time, a figure slowly appeared on the big screen behind the stage.

Although the face of the black shadow could not be seen clearly, all the audience immediately recognized that this was the Monkey King through the two long feathers on his head.

[The fantasy world is empty, let go of grievances,

Abandoning enlightenment and delusion, the six dusts remain unchanged;

And angry and sad and mad,

Humans, ghosts or monsters,

It’s just that I have a demonic debt in my heart...]

When singing "Let's forget all the grudges", the cold sound of the bamboo flute came in. As the background color of the screen turned to dark red, the movements of the black figure also became struggling, as if trying to break free from some kind of shackles.

At this point, the lyrics have actually vaguely explained why the "dilemma of love and hate" and "broken heart" in the previous sentence are all because of "the devil's debt in the heart."

At this time, Ye Zhiqiu's singing continued to sound.

[Call out to the Buddha, turn back without shore,

Kneel one person as a teacher, life or death has nothing to do with it...]

When singing "Buddha", Ye Zhiqiu's voice suddenly rose, using some Peking Opera singing.

When Shu Shu, who was curled up in the chair, heard this, his scalp went numb, and he suddenly sat upright.

Goosebumps arose!

Not just for the amazing vocals, but also for the lyrics here.

As a film critic, Shu Shu has watched a large number of film and television dramas. In many works, Buddhist disciples often say something sincerely: "The sea of ​​suffering has no limit, but when you turn around, you will find shore."

Tang Monk often advised Sun Wukong, saying, "You stubborn monkey, don't do evil again, don't be stubborn anymore."

When he was studying in the West to "cultivate to achieve the right fruit", the Tathagata said, "I am happy that you have concealed your evil and promoted good. You have accomplished meritorious deeds in refining demons and subduing monsters along the way. From the beginning to the end, you have been promoted to the great position and achieved the right fruit. You have fought to defeat the Buddha."

It seems that from beginning to end, everyone is advising the stubborn Sun Wukong to put away your bad nature. Your freedom and ease are all empty. The right way is to change your past and turn around.

But what happens after you look back?The tight curse has been removed, but without freedom, why not put another layer of invisible imprisonment on it?

After all, what is abundant in Buddhism is just a monkey, but what is lacking in heaven and earth is a passion that will never come again.

After calling the Buddha, there is no way to turn back; if you kneel down to someone as your teacher, you will no longer be able to control your life or death.

Shu Shu felt that she understood, but the depressing feeling in her heart was extremely strong.

——The Monkey King in her heart should not be like this.

[The floating world of good and evil, the true and false world,

The dust is scattered and gathered indistinctly,

Difficult! 】

As Ye Zhiqiu finished singing the word "difficult to break", the accompaniment on the stage gradually accelerated, and with the accents of bamboo flutes, cymbals and other folk instruments, the audience's accumulated emotions were approaching their highest point.

The next moment, Ye Zhiqiu, who was in the center of the stage, took a step forward and his singing voice suddenly rose.

【I want——What is the use of this iron rod?

I have - so what about this change! 】

At the same time, in the background picture, raging fire rose, and the figure seemed to break free from its restraints and leap into the sky.

Shu Shu felt that her scalp was numb.

At the moment when the soundtrack suddenly stopped and started, and Ye Zhiqiu shouted wildly, she felt that all the uneasiness and melancholy accumulated in the early stage were vented with the singing.

——I have reached the extreme point of burning.

However, this is just what she thinks. How could Ye Zhiqiu satisfy the audience so easily?

——No, you didn’t, keep going!

On the stage, after a tight connection accompaniment, the song entered the second chorus.

[I want this iron bar Drunken Dancing Demon,

I have this change and confusion;

Stepping on the spiritual sky, acting unbridled and unruly...]

When Ye Zhiqiu sang "Unruly and Unruly", Ye Zhiqiu's high notes pierced the sky and almost shook the roof off, pushing the emotions of all the listeners to the highest point again.

At this time, Shu Shu looked at the figure on the screen, her face flushed, and her toes had curled up unconsciously because she was so excited.

This man really makes me numb!
