The curved hook moon hangs on the sparse buttonwood; In the dead of night, the water from the water clock has been dripping.
I only see you alone, vague and lonely.
At night, it suddenly becomes afraid, suddenly flies and comes back frequently, but no one always understands its infinite inner feelings.
Lonely sandbars are very cold.
-Su Shibu operator
During the reign of Emperor Zongshao of the Northern Song Dynasty, there was an old man named Shuang 'an in Baihefeng, Huizhou (now Huizhou), Guangnan East Road, and his family lived in several huts. During the day, he plowed by the hut; In the evening, read or write poems under the oil lamp. This old man is Su Shi, a famous minister of the dynasty. He spent most of his life in the struggle between the new party and the old party. Because of his integrity, he was repeatedly relegated. In the eighth year of Zong Yuanyou (1093), the so-called new party came to power. They persecuted Su Shi as the old party, demoted him again, and finally demoted him to Huizhou, the Sima of Jianchang Army. Su Shi felt that there was no hope of returning to the north, so he bought several acres of land in Baihefeng, built several huts and settled down temporarily.
Strangely, whenever night falls, a young woman secretly comes to Su Shi's window to eavesdrop on his poems and songs, and often stands still until late at night. Dew wet her shoes and socks, she was indifferent, still listening attentively, and when she heard the understanding, she couldn't help but read it in a low voice and shook her head like an old pedant. The uninvited guests in the middle of the night were quickly discovered by the host. One night, when the girl was secretly hiding, Su Shi gently pushed open the window and wanted to talk to her and ask the truth. Who knows, when the window opened, the girl ran away like a frightened bird. She jumped nimbly over the low courtyard wall and disappeared into the night.
Baihefeng area is vast and sparsely populated, and there are few households. It wasn't long before Su Shi figured out the reason. It turned out that not far from Su Shi's home, there lived the Awen Dujian. He has a daughter named Chaochao, who is 28 years old. She is elegant and handsome, and she knows books very well. She especially likes reading the poems and songs of Dongpo's Bachelor, and often fondle admiringly. She knows all Su Hong's works by heart, and she is fascinated. She made up her mind not to marry the talented Su Like Shi Xue. So, although it's been fifteen years, I'm not married yet. Since Su Shi was banished to Huizhou, she has been looking for opportunities to meet Su Shi, but she has never seen Su Hong herself. Although Su Shi was demoted, she was still a courtier and the daughter of a small supervisor. How can she just meet other people? Besides, men and women are different. Therefore, under the cover of the night, it is really a great enjoyment for her to stand on the mud and listen to Su's poems, regardless of the wind and frost.
Su Shi was very moved when he learned the truth. He thought to himself, Su Shi, what can I do to make a talented woman like this? He made up his mind to fulfill this talented and beautiful prison girl. Su Shi knew a scholar named Wang, who was charming, well-read and ambitious. Su Shi took the opportunity to say to Wen Dujian, "I want to draw a red line between Wang Lang and your daughter, so that your love can be realized as soon as possible." Wendujian's father and daughter are very happy. Since then, Wen Chaochao has been studying behind closed doors or doing needlework, waiting for good news.
Who knows, disaster fell from the sky. The persecution of Su Shi by the authorities did not end. Just when Su Shi's family first settled in Huizhou, they were born four years less (1097). In April, Zhezong issued another imperial decree to demote Su Shi, who was placed by Qiongzhou Changhua Army. Qiongzhou is far away in Hainan, "no charcoal in winter and no cold spring in summer", which is a desolate and barren land. Officials did not allow Su Shi to make any preparations and urged him to go on the road urgently. Su Shi had to leave his family in Huizhou and go to Qiongzhou with his youngest son, Su Guo. The whole family sent it to the river to say goodbye with tears. Su Shi couldn't help feeling sad when he thought that his chances of survival were slim. He left in such a hurry and in such a bad mood, how could he care about the marriage between Wang Lang and Wen Chaochao?
Su Shi's sudden demotion to Hainan was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for the Wen Dynasty. She felt that she not only missed a beautiful marriage, but also lost the opportunity to associate with Sue whom she admired forever. From then on, she became dull and unhappy. I often go to Sue alone to stay in the old house of BaiHefeng for half a day. Gradually, she even gave up sleeping and eating, and finally she could not afford to get sick. Before she died, she also asked her family to go to Baihefeng to see if Sue had come back. She left this world with infatuation, talent and infinite regret. According to her will, her family buried her next to a sand dune in front of Baihefeng, with the grave facing Hainan. She hopes that even if she dies, her soul can see Sue return from Hainan.
In the third year of Fu Yuan (1 100), Hui Zong succeeded to the throne and granted amnesty to the world, so Su Shi was able to return to the mainland. When Su Shi returned to Huizhou, the grave of the Wen Dynasty was covered with weeds. Standing in front of Chaochao's grave, Su Shi had mixed feelings and could not help but shed tears. He hates that he has failed to satisfy his super-desire. Now, he can't comfort this painful soul. He sang this word with guilt.
Cold in the Lonely Sand Beach is a new love song which combines China culture and Indian West Tower custom. Over the years, Steve Chou stayed in the mainland for a long time, and naturally absorbed a lot of China culture. Song ci is his personal favorite. This song was conceived by Su Shi's Bu Operator. Different from many works that deliberately use musical elements, this song can be said to be an impromptu fireworks with surprising and unexpected collocation. At first, it was the guitarist who adjusted the melody. Suddenly, Xiao Gang found that the melody close to Sitaqin was very special, and the lonely and cold timbre set off the loneliness of this song, thus achieving the exotic musical elements of Lonely Shazhou Cold. Terence Teo, a Singaporean gold medal arranger, was even more amazed after hearing this song, and then added elegant strings to Steve Chou's arranger, enriching the musical level of the whole song.
In terms of music video, director Kuang Sheng did not shoot with the feeling of showing the Chinese and Indian national styles in songs. Instead, the strange atmosphere and avant-garde vision are intertwined with futuristic and post-modern cool and fashionable scenes and spaces, and the misty and charming female figures are intertwined to emphasize the brand-new feeling presented by this song. Under the director's sincere communication, Steve Chou broke the previous performance standards and had many intimate sex scenes with the heroine, trying to present the lonely and complicated feelings of men in Lust.
