Chapter 346: On the Podium with Ling Yan 3
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Dream of a Long Life was created with Ling Yan as the original inspiration, so the lead actress was called Lin Yan.
The story was about how a maiden called Lin Yan, who was suffering from serious heart problems, befriended a depressed musician and how they then helped each other.
The musician used to be a genius but due to an unexpected car accident, his parents all passed away, so the musician could not create anything anymore.
Lin Yan, on the other hand, had the intention of killing herself because of her serious heart problems. However, after hearing a song played by the musician, she again felt the hope of living on and chose to cherish the little time she had left.
Out of a miracle, she lived on one year after another, just to look for that musician, only to find that the musician who once gave her the hope to live on, became so depressed that he could not write any more songs.
Therefore, Lin Yan helped the musician to rebuild his dream of music, so that he could write and sing once again.
The musician fell in love with Lin Yan, who had also secretly loved this musician for years but when the man confessed to her, she had to turn him down and leave because she had very little time left.
The section they dubbed for tonight was a monologue Lin Yan said, as she turned around and left the solo concert held by the musician.
On the stage, the musician played the song that Lin Yan loved the most of all, the one that once helped her to give up her suicidal thoughts.
“Because of this song, I started to understand the beauty of life and to realize that the sunshine could be warm and the world could be colorful.”
“I spent three years searching for you, hoping to see you again but now, all I can do is to wave you goodbye.”
“But thankfully, your music lives on with me. Even if my future will be filled with struggling and being on the brink of death for the rest of my life, I will still go through the misery and live on until the very end...”
....
What was shown on the screen was Lin Yan crying as she watched the musician performing on the stage and how he received so much support from the fans.
Then she said, “I love you,” to the man on the stage, before turning around and leaving the crowd.
When the first recorded dubbing was released, every line sounded so grevious that it gripped people’s hearts.
Life was fading away and she couldn’t hold onto the love she desired. It was such a painful moment that everyone could be driven to tears.
The founder Ms. Bai said, after watching the first recorded dubbing, “Our number one voice is indeed touching, quite close to the original soundtrack. I feel that my heart is scattered into pieces.”
Ling Yan stood next to her with a smile – it was such a classical moment that could make everyone tearful, totally unduplicatable.
The founder glanced at the two women and teased them.
“Who dubbed the first section? Give me a hint maybe?”
Both Gu Weiwei and Ling Yan showed a meaningful smile, refusing to admit that it was their work.
“Alright then, since neither of you are saying anything, let’s listen to the second voice.” The founder suggested.
The section was replayed on the big-screen, yet when the voice arose, the founder was totally surprised.
The picture was the same, so were the lines and even the voice sounded extremely similar.
Yet what they had expressed was totally different.
The former’s voice sounded sad and miserable but the second voice expressed the joy of the character who had received the love, as well as the strong desire to live on. The sadness and misery were just one tiny part of the emotions presented...
Every line had been perfectly expressed and the voice sounded gentle yet powerful too. This was the original sound track of Dream of a Long Life.
Dream of a Long Life was never about grief and regret but about warmth and healing, as well as hope and the power of life.
The founder, as well as everyone below the stage, naturally believed that it was Ling Yan’s voice because it sounded so much like the original sound track and Dream of a Long Life was her movie.
No one apart from her would have been able to create such a perfect dubbing for Dream of a Long Life.
Ling Yan’s smile wavered, as she threw a complicated look at Gu Weiwei next to her.
When everyone else assumed that it was her voice, she herself understood perfectly that it was not hers.
When she was doing Dream of a Long Life, she was having treatment and it was Gu Weiwei who had done the lines and dubbing for her!
But Gu Weiwei was already dead, how could this voice sound so much like hers?
