The reason for the promotion is that the post-production of "The Tuner" will be completed this month. Other movies are looking for directions in countless finished materials, but the shots of Xianyu's movies are purposeful. The so-called editing is just to arrange the order, and then add music and other things...
The consideration process is omitted.
It's as fast as a bad movie.
Lin Yuan originally thought that the rumors about the season rankings would soon pass, but what he didn't expect was that after Chu joined the Qin-Qi merger, the subsequent complications seemed to be more serious than when Qi first joined
The next few days.
Chu seemed to be getting more and more arrogant. Some big-name musicians in Chu even publicly declared that Chu's music was no worse than Qin's. The largest media in Chu even publicly praised their own musicians and analyzed Chu's achievements in music from various angles. So Xianyu, the popular little song artist at the end of last year, was once again used as a background example by the Chu media...
At this moment.
The situation is getting worse.
It's not directed at Xianyu, this is actually related to the background of Blue Star. Qin's dominance in the field of music is recognized worldwide, but there is always a first and a second. Chu is the second-ranked music continent, and Blue Star basically recognizes this. However, Chu does not seem to particularly agree with this statement. They think their music is no worse than Qinzhou's!
That’s why we have this wonderful show right now.
Chu seemed to want to take advantage of the merger to confront Blue Star Musicians head-on. If they win, Chu would be number one in Blue Star Music. The reason why he chose Xianyu as the biggest background board was just because Xianyu happened to defeat two Qu Dads last month, and his ranking was suppressed by Chu this season, so it was not high.
"The rhythm of the Qin Chu Music Battle?"
This is the first time that a place has dared to challenge the status of the hometown of music of Qin. When Qi and Qin merged, they only dared to say that their movies were great, but did not dare to compete with Qin in music. So when the people of Qi Province, which was also a merged area, saw that there was such a wonderful drama after the merger of Chu, although they were more inclined to Qin in their hearts, they still chose to watch from the sidelines, with a bit of the intention of watching a show.
As expected.
Following Chu's successive challenges, famous Qin musicians who are considered kings of songs and song fathers have spoken out in the next few days, preparing to win the second season this year. It is obvious that they are planning to give Da Chu a head-on blow next month to uphold its reputation as the hometown of music!
Among them.
Even including Lin Yuan’s favorite character card, Yang Zhongming, the strongest Qu Dad in Xingmang. I don’t know whether Chu Ren angered Qu Dad, or Xingmang hoped that Yang Zhongming would take action to gain some reputation for the company. In short, Yang Zhongming was ready to take action.
Crash!
With the arrival of the big guys, the Internet became completely lively. The topic of Qin Chu's music battle was undoubtedly the number one trending search on the blog. Below the trending search, there was a keyboard battle between Qin, Qi and Chu netizens:
"The Great Chu is mighty and domineering!"
"It is said that Qin Province is the hometown of Blue Star music. I think our Da Chu's music is also very good. It's just that Qin's reputation is too big, and there was a cultural wall of isolation in the past, so the outside world lacks understanding of us. In fact, we are no worse than Qin Province!"
"Listen to Da Chu's music!"
"The fact that Da Chu has just joined the merger and has taken the top three spots in the season rankings doesn't speak volumes. Don't say that Da Qin's Qu Dad didn't make a move. We also have many experts on Da Chu who haven't made a move yet."
"that is."
"We at Da Chu are actually very advanced in many areas on Blue Star, such as the cartoons we produce, the electrical appliances we produce, our car brands, etc. Just like these areas, our music should not be underestimated."
"… "
It seems that not only the musicians of Da Chu are confident in their own music, but even the ordinary people of Da Chu have similar ideas, which is why the prelude to this war has been opened. However, the Qin people are naturally unlikely to accept it:
“Is it called the hometown of music for nothing?”
"The entire Blue Star recognizes Daqin's musical achievements, but you Chu people don't. If that's the case, then just wait and see. Also, don't always use Xianyu as a background. You've been doing this for a long time but just competing with the college students who haven't graduated from our Qinzhou Art School yet."
"This is just showing off one's skills in front of an expert."
"Most of the top musicians in the Blue Star music scene come from Daqin. In addition, whether it's Qudie or Wangpai, most of them are from Qin. If we really want to compare the strength of the bench, you Chu people don't have much chance."
"… "
The netizens of Qin and Chu were arguing fiercely, while the netizens of Qi province were fanning the flames and making jokes. On the one hand, they acknowledged Qin's musical status, and on the other hand, they encouraged Da Chu to work harder and destroy Qin's prestige.
Below Xianyu’s Weibo.
More fans began to call on Xiaoqu's father to go into battle. In the eyes of the Qin people, who are proud in their bones, Chu is just a younger brother in music. Now Da Chu keeps talking about Xianyu, and if Xianyu doesn't respond, it seems like he is afraid of them.
“Don’t just make movies.”
"Teacher Xianyu, please take action!"
"The Chu people have been very arrogant recently!"
"If Teacher Xianyu can come up with another song called 'Red Sun', it will definitely shut up the Chu people. It takes time to create something. If February doesn't work, then March. If March doesn't work, then April. He has to say something. Otherwise, wouldn't it be wasted by the Chu people?"
"… "
Not just fans.
The music circle in Qin Province is also speculating whether Xianyu will make a move. If December had not won the Battle of the Gods, the music circle in Qin Province would not have such high expectations. But now, in the eyes of many people, Xianyu has a chance to beat Qu Die!
"Looks like you're going to take action?"
Qin Chu's netizens had a strong sense of empathy. Even Lin Yuan, who didn't care much about this matter, felt that he had to give some response. It was still not because he was angry, but because Lin Yuan found a business opportunity in it!
Yes, business opportunities!
The Qin Chu Music Battle has united people from all over the world, and has brought an unprecedented opportunity to Lin Yuan. If he seizes this opportunity, Lin Yuan will definitely be able to greatly enhance his reputation!
"Reputation value..."
If he could represent Qinzhou Music, Lin Yuan would seem to be able to see a lot of reputation points waving towards him. He wouldn't even need to specially order any new songs, because the works would already be ready:
Some piano music in the movie!
Moreover, this is also a good opportunity to take advantage of the popularity. Lin Yuan can use this music battle to promote the movie "The Tuner". You know, publicity is also very important for a movie!
So what are you waiting for
This time, Lin Yuan did not hesitate too much and directly posted the poster of "The Pianist" on Xianyu's account. At the same time, he revealed the news in his dynamics: "The movie is also called "The Pianist". As the name suggests, I composed some music for this movie, including several piano pieces. You can get the answers you want in this movie."
Swish, swish, swish!
Obviously, Xianyu was still talking about movies, just like in the last post, but this time his fans were hooked. His blog comment area exploded, and countless netizens left crazy comments below:
"Are you going to take action?"
"You did a movie soundtrack?"
"Stop talking, I'll buy the ticket!"
Some people also discovered Xianyu's little trick: "This wave is a disguised movie promotion. You are really a publicity genius. If you don't hear satisfactory music after watching the movie, don't blame me for getting angry, Master Xian."
"Your Excellency is Prince Ning?"
"Want to pee right there?"
“When will the movie be released?”
"It seems that our teacher Xianyu likes to put personal ideas in movies. Last time he wrote poems and couplets, but this time he even composed a piano piece for the movie. The movie is also called "The Pianist", so this is a music-themed movie?"
"Okay, Xianyu is going to the battle!"
"In fact, it doesn't matter whether Xianyu takes action or not. Many big guys in our Daqin have already taken action. All of Dachu will die in this wave. But who made Dachu keep using Xianyu as an example? If the tiger doesn't show its power, do you think Xianyu's teacher is really a fish?"
"… "
Although there is suspicion of riding on the popularity, no one objects to it, because Xianyu's new movie is really in line with the title, as if it was specially prepared for this Qin Chu Music Battle, and it does not give people a forced feeling.
Lin Yuan's strategy worked.
As his popularity increased, the attention to the new movie soared, and many people began to search for information about the movie. Some movie rating websites even had entries for "The Piano Tuner", but the specific information was unknown.
“How clever!”
The annual vacation ends on the 8th.
On the day he returned to work, Lao Zhou was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He immediately found Xianyu and said, "You did a great job in this wave of publicity. Some theaters have already contacted us to inquire about the release of "The Tuner". When will the post-production be completed?"
"Number 15."
Lin Yuan opened his mouth and said, because this time they are not going to take the route of online movies, and under normal circumstances, a movie has to wait for the release schedule and screening, and the release date is not really under the control of the person involved, but if it is based on the momentum of the Qin Qi Music War, then these problems will no longer be a problem!
From this perspective.
Lin Yuan was even somewhat grateful to the Chu people for always using him as a background board. It was the Chu people who constantly stirred up hatred and aroused the unity of the Qin people that made so many people start to pay attention to his movie!
"but… "
Lao Zhou said with some concern: "I haven't listened to the music in your movie yet. Is the quality guaranteed? If you are not sure, I can ask some music masters in the company to help. They should have unreleased works with very good quality."
"no problem."
Lin Yuan is very confident.
His confidence never came from himself, but from the popular classic works in his previous life. "Wedding in a Dream" is definitely an undisputed killer. It can be said that this is the time when Lin Yuan is most confident!
“Have faith…”
Old Zhou nodded. He had no doubt about Lin Yuan's composing ability, but this matter involved too many things. If the music in "The Tuner" was not convincing enough, not only would the movie fail, but Xianyu's prestige as a composer would also be greatly affected.
Riding on the popularity of others is a double-edged sword.
This Qin Qi music battle, which is about glory, can indeed bring great attention to "The Tuner", but at the same time it has also infinitely raised many people's expectations for the works that will appear in this movie. If these expectations ultimately fail to meet the standards imagined by many people, the consequences will be disastrous.
It was hard for Xianyu to bear.
So to be on the safe side, he suggested: "Why don't I let Yang Zhongming listen to it? He might be able to give you some advice. It's not that I don't trust your work this time, it's just that this work is really too important!"
Lin Yuan said: "Whatever."
This time, real gold is not afraid of fire.
Old Zhou nodded and took Lin Yuan directly to the fourteenth floor. The fourteenth floor was the highest floor of the company's composition department and it was also the department managed by Yang Zhongming. The other party was the top composer on Blue Star, so Old Zhou definitely couldn't let Yang Zhongming meet Lin Yuan. It would be more appropriate for Lin Yuan to meet Yang Zhongming.
This is the etiquette that the younger generation should have.
Lin Yuan did not think there was anything wrong with this. He actually had a special feeling for Yang Zhongming. If we put aside the works provided by the system, Lin Yuan felt that Yang Zhongming was the one who brought him the most benefits.
The other party is Lin Yuan’s real teacher!
Because most of Lin Yuan's real knowledge of composition was actually taught by Yang Zhongming's character card. Even if Yang Zhongming himself was not aware of it, Lin Yuan had indeed learned a lot from him.
Not long after.
We have arrived at the fourteenth floor.
Old Zhou led Lin Yuan into a quiet office, knocked on the door, and waited for a voice from inside to invite him in before pushing the door open and walking in. Then Lin Yuan saw a man in his early forties looking up at him.
The man is about 1.8 meters tall.
He is tall, but his cheeks are a little thin and his eye sockets are slightly sunken, as if he has not had enough rest for a long time. His hair is sparse, which is common in middle-aged men. It can be imagined that he must have been a very handsome man when he was young.
"Hello, Teacher Yang."
Lin Yuan took the initiative to speak.
This was the first time the two met. Yang Zhongming could never imagine that Lin Yuan was actually very familiar with his image, and even the composition knowledge in his mind was not unfamiliar to Lin Yuan.
Received advance notice from Lao Zhou.
Yang Zhongming was not surprised by Lin Yuan's appearance. He just stared at Lin Yuan with a curious look. After a long time, he slowly said:
"I know you."
Lao Zhou smiled and said, "I just mentioned this to you. Listen to Lin Yuan's song this time. If you say it's okay, then I'll be relieved. If this matter is not handled well, it will ruin Xianyu. I hope you can pay attention to it."
"Envy fish cannot be destroyed."
Yang Zhongming's expression suddenly became serious, and then he whispered to Lin Yuan: "There is nothing wrong with the song "Rooftop", it's just that the Chu people are a little too cunning and they took advantage of it."
Lin Yuan nodded.
Of course he knew there was nothing wrong with "The Rooftop", but Yang Zhongming's words were somewhat comforting, so Lin Yuan didn't say much, but just turned on his phone and said, "Shall I play the song for you?"
Yang Zhongming asked, "Can you play it?"
Lin Yuan nodded: "A little bit."
Yang Zhongming glanced at the piano in the window.
Lin Yuan understood and sat down directly at the piano. He did not choose other songs in the movie, but chose to play "Wedding in a Dream", which is the most important song in the movie and also Lin Yuan's favorite that he has treasured since he drew the work early on.
Old Zhou sat down.
Yang Zhongming stood straight, looking at Lin Yuan with some anticipation in his eyes. There have been many newcomers in this circle, but not every newcomer can get the attention of Qu's father. Xianyu is one of the few newcomers who has been noticed by many people since his debut.
Touch Piano.
Lin Yuan swayed his body slightly, and his slender fingers jumped familiarly on the piano keys, as if he was a little fish swimming freely in the river on a rainy day, shuttling between water and nature. The quiet sound of the piano made people feel as if they were in the clouds.
Not too intense.
But Lin Yuan's piano music clearly had an indescribable power, as if the notes struck by his fingertips fell on the calm lake, creating ripples in Yang Zhongming's heart...
Old Zhou's eyes changed slightly.
Even though his ability to appreciate music was not as good as Yang Zhongming's, he could still realize the excellence of this piece of music. What surprised him even more was that Lin Yuan's playing skills were very professional, and it would be impossible to reach this level without countless training!
Yang Zhongming closed his eyes slightly.
The sound of the piano seemed to have a kind of magic, making his mood at the moment as pure as the bright moon, and the fingers jumping on the black and white keys seemed to be telling a beautiful and moving story, accompanied by inexplicable sadness.
Lin Yuan's left hand sped up.
The timbre of the piano has always been simple and rich. When it is soft, it is like the winter sunshine, bright, warm and calm; when it is cold, it is like steel beads scattered on the ice, each grain is distinct and penetrates the bones. In this calmness as deep as the dark night, there is sound or silence, and its bottomless power spreads to the sky.
A few minutes later.
Lin Yuan stopped playing.
The last note slipped away from his fingers. At this time, Lao Zhou was already smiling, while Yang Zhongming's fingers were moving in the air, as if he was comparing it with Lin Yuan's performance of the piano score just now, and he seemed to be immersed in it...
"Well, how's it going?"
Lao Zhou couldn't help but break the silence. He needed Lao Zhou's professional ability to judge. He felt that this piece of music was very good, but he couldn't give a professional evaluation if he was asked to describe in detail what made it good. This was also the feeling of most people when listening to piano. There were only two kinds:
Good sounding and bad sounding.
Yang Zhongming slightly widened his eyes and glanced at Lao Zhou, seeming somewhat dissatisfied with the other party for breaking his state. Then he stared at Lin Yuan closely. For the first time, he felt that he could not see through a junior.
"You play well."
Lao Zhou was somewhat speechless: "Let's not discuss the piano playing level first, let's talk about this song. Teacher Yang, do you think this song can be modified, or can it be used directly in the movie?"
"You're talking nonsense."
Yang Zhongming didn't save face for Lao Zhou, which made Lao Zhou's face slightly red. Then he comforted himself in his heart that this guy was Qu's father after all, and Xianyu didn't save face for him anyway. In a sense, these two people are quite similar...
After another silence.
A smile appeared on Yang Zhongming's lips. This was the first time he smiled since Lin Yuan and Lao Zhou came in. Before Lao Zhou could say anything, Yang Zhongming spoke again: "I will quit in February. Manager Zhou, please help me issue a statement."
"Why?"
Old Zhou widened his eyes.
Yang Zhongming looked at Lin Yuan, and his smile actually became a little warmer: "Because this February belongs to him, I won't join in the fun."
"But… "
“He will top the charts.”
Yang Zhongming interrupted Lao Zhou.
Old Zhou's eyes widened instantly, as if someone had strangled him by the throat. He whimpered several times before speaking in a slightly trembling voice:
"good!"
