The Creation Background of the Song Late Autumn
The creation background of Late Autumn can be traced back to 1988. Xu wrote this song in Fengyuan Road, Xiguan, Guangzhou, and it took about 15 minutes. The original song was named "May Your Heart Stay", and its musical style was influenced by elements such as Cantonese opera, classical music and popular canto pop at that time, showing the fusion of national, classical and popular styles.
During 1989, Xu went to Jiangmen to participate in the performance of Pacific Art Troupe. As a representative of Hong Kong, he also attended the event and met Xu who rehearsed "May your heart last forever" with the band.
Then, Xu's agent negotiated with Xu, and the two sides finally reached an agreement to divide the copyright of the track into two parts. Copyright in Chinese mainland, Hongkong and overseas belongs to the company, and copyright in Chinese mainland belongs to Xu. Later, Hong Kong Feitu Records rearranged its tracks and changed its title to Late Autumn, which was officially released on 199 1.
