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 cameras filming them from different angles.

So when you released your first alb.u.m, you were only 14 or 15 years old? Luo Xin asked with a smile.

14 years old, Mo Fei nodded.

Oh, thats quite young! Why did you want to debut so early? Luo Xin asked.

Mo Feis 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 methods 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 Xins eyes, she continued to expand on her answer, Sister Luo Xin, that isnt quite right. I didnt debut at 14 years old. That was the age when I released my first official alb.u.m. Before that, I had released some singles on my own or collaborated with other singers on New Years songs. When I was younger, I also partic.i.p.ated in some TV station compet.i.tions.

Luo Xin smiled and said, I see. Our Mo Fe has been a musical genius since childhood!

I wouldnt 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 camera and smiled. Here, let me introduce to some viewers who may not know, Mo Feis mother is a singer from Hong Kong in the 1970s, Ms. Zhou Mengyu.

Not famous, but Luo Xin didnt point it out.

We all know that your first alb.u.m did quite well, and you were even nominated for Hong Kongs Newcomer of the Year. But why didnt you continue to develop in Hong Kong? Why did you choose to come to the mainland? Luo Xin asked.

Because I didnt really win the Newcomer of the Year award, and my subsequent development wasnt smooth. At that time, Sister Ling, who had just founded Tianmei, thought that my singing skills had potential for development, so she brought me to the mainland. Mo Fei said lightly.

The real reason was actually more than that. After Mo Fei lost the award, some people within the company questioned her, thinking that Mo Fei had received preferential treatment and resources due to her mothers connections. This became an excuse for those people to criticized the music director as well.

Of course, this rumor was not entirely baseless. Mo Feis mother did have a good relations.h.i.+p with the music director of the company at that time. So, Mo Feis entry into the music industry started smoothly, and she almost won the Newcomer 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 overwhelmed. She isolated herself from these people with indifference, paying no attention to intrigues and struggles, and worked hard on her own music.

With Mo Feis 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 Meiling appeared. Niu Meiling, who saw Mo Feis potential, brought her to the mainland.

Regarding this, Luo Xin asked, So, in Tianmei, in the mainland music market, you almost started from scratch. We all know that the first few years will be quite difficult. During this time, do you have any particularly memorable stories that youd like to share with the audience?

However, Mo Fei was very straightforward. She thought for a moment and said, Difficult? It wasnt too difficult, I think. Because my father required us to speak Mandarin at home, so my Mandarin wasnt very bad when I first came. Everyone didnt treat me 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 remember the first Mandarin song you sang after coming to the mainland?

In this way, through repeated guidance, Luo Xin gradually sorted through Mo Feis singer career from the beginning to retirement, and then asked, What was the reason that made you come back after a five-year retirement and start from scratch once again?

Mo Fei had actually answered this question many times during the release of her comeback alb.u.m a few months ago, but at that time, her words had been modified by the companys public relations team. This time, Mo Fei wanted to speak from the bottom of her heart.

Because I still love singing. Even though its 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 come back and continue singing! Mo Fei said.

Indeed, we saw that the results of your comeback alb.u.m 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 Xins 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. Its still the familiar and beautiful voice, still the familiar and sad emotions, and its still you, the familiar and beautiful Mo Fei. Five years have pa.s.sed, and you havent changed at all! Luo Xin said emotionally.

Mo Feis calm face was also slightly moved, and a misty glimmer 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 same 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 moment, remembered and followed Luo Xins lead, saying, Its still because my musical dream is still alive, and I never gave up.

Very well said! Because of her dream, Mo Fei has come 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 moment, Luo Xin suddenly became mischievous. In the camera, she blinked mischievously like a young person and said, Mo Fei, Ive said so many good things about you. Shouldnt you sing a new song for everyone here today?

Ah? Mo Fei was a little slow to react to Luo Xins routine, as if the script shouldnt have suddenly led to this.

Its rare to come to Zhinxin Interview. You cant just sing old songs here, right? Even singing Across the Ocean to See You wont do! Ive heard that youre preparing a new alb.u.m, and all twelve songs are written by Mu Liang specifically for you, and each one is a masterpiece. If you dont bring out a new song today, the audience wont agree! Luo Xin said with a smile.

Mo Fei understood and smiled softly, responding, In that case, let me 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? Lets quickly move on to the most antic.i.p.ated part Music!

Thank you, Sister Luo Xin The Initial Dream, I hope everyone likes it!
