In 2004, an online song named "Lilac" touched China. However, have you ever known that there is a sadder story behind this sad song?
/kloc-in October, a woman named Zeng was born in Wenzhou. Her father died soon after she was born. Then the girl became seriously ill, and her mother had no choice but to send her to her uncle's house in Sichuan. The doctor found that the girl suffered from severe pneumonia and abscess. Although she was saved by rescue, her right lung was necrotic. Since then, my uncle has adopted this girl from a bad business.
1996 One summer day, the little girl braved the downpour and rushed to send an umbrella to her brother. This time, the rain caused the girl's old illness, and it was very severe. She was taken to the hospital for emergency treatment, and all her right lungs were removed.
When the girl couldn't go to school, my brother bought her a computer with the money he earned from his summer job and told her, "There is a colorful world here. Go in and have a look."
Perhaps by fate, the little girl Meng Jie became a netizen who fell in love with the Internet. She met a netizen named Falling Snow and Flying Flowers on the Internet, and they became friends who talked about everything. This friend is Tang Lei. At that time, Tang Lei had graduated from Shandong Institute of Building Materials Industry and worked in Shenshui Group. Engaged in music creation and performance in his spare time, he is already an influential online singer.
Meng Jie once said that she likes purple lilacs, which is a symbol of love. Tang Lei said, "Why not give yourself a screen name, just call it lilacs."
Lilacs became Tang Lei's expectation. He would go online to see lilacs when he was free, but he never thought lilacs were terminally ill. Her life is actually counting down, and she is listening to the rest of her life alone. Tang Lei doesn't know this. He joked with Lilac and laughed happily. In fact, she is fighting back the pain. Cold sweat streamed down her pale face. Her happiness is fake. She fainted in front of the computer many times and coughed up blood on the keyboard many times.
After that, lilacs did not appear on the Internet for a long time, and disappeared into a gust of wind for no reason.
On June 5438+ 10, 2004, Meng Jie suddenly sent a greeting to Tang Lei on the Internet and asked him where he was. At that time, Tang Lei was in Beijing, recording new songs in the studio.
"I want to meet you."
Tang Lei was surprised and asked where she was.
"I am in the affiliated hospital of Peking University."
Afterwards, Tang Lei learned that Lilac had come to Beijing to find him. At first, she refused to let her family send her to Beijing for treatment. Later, when she heard that Tang Lei went to Beijing to record songs, she obeyed her family's wishes. In fact, she wanted to see Tang Lei for herself in the last few days of her life.
Meet in the ward full of lilacs, no hugs, no intimate greetings, and no shyness at first sight. They shook hands like old friends reunited after a long separation. Menstruation of Laila quietly told Tang Lei that Laila was dying, and the doctor had issued a critical notice.
In the next few days, Tang Lei went to the hospital to visit Laila as soon as he was free. At that time, he was planning his first solo album, and many plans were not ideal, especially the title song of the album had not been made, and he was as busy as a bee. Lila is worried about him, too. She sent her family to the bookstore to buy many books, hoping to provide some inspiration for Tang Lei. One day, she found a story in a book. After reading it, she was very excited and called Tang Lei at once.
Meng Jie told Tang Lei a story in his book: In ancient times, a young scholar fell in love with a shopkeeper's daughter on the way to catch the exam, and they hit it off at once. I didn't expect the shopkeeper to scold her for ruining the family style. The girl cried and said that they really loved each other and asked her father to fulfill her wish, but the shopkeeper refused. The girl was strong-willed and died immediately. The shopkeeper regretted it and buried his daughter on the hillside behind him. Soon, the girl's grave was covered with lush lilac trees, full of flowers and fragrant. The scholar was surprised and watered the flowers every day, never stopping, and mixed them with lilacs for life.
After telling this story, Lilac cried, "Aren't you worried about the title song? It is located in the beauty of sadness, cherishing people with flowers, and with acoustic guitar, expressing melancholy, dreams and feelings. In fact, simplicity is the best. " This sentence made Tang Lei wake up like a dream: "The title song in my album is Lilac. I must write it for you. "
In the long night, Tang Lei forced himself to calm down by a lonely lamp. His communication with Lila is as clear and broken as a black-and-white movie. He can't imagine a girl's mentality when she hears the tick of the life clock. Thinking about this matter, Tang Lei's tears flowed down again and again. At dawn, he wrote a beautiful and sad poem "Lilacs" in one go: You said that you love Lilacs the most, because your name is it, what a melancholy flower, what a passionate person, when the flowers wither, when the picture is frozen, what a delicate flower, but you can't escape the stormy life.
"Lilac" was quickly recorded successfully, and Tang Lei put this song on the Internet, which soon became popular. This song was sung in February 2004 14. That night, the lilac on the sickbed went into shock many times. Originally, she promised to let Tang Lei take this hand to see the lilacs in Beijing Xishan, but he couldn't wait. She closed her eyes at midnight.
