"It looks like it's getting better." Fang Zhao said.
"It's still a little bit short. There are some problems that haven't been solved yet, but it was also said that it will be completely overcome within half a year, and it will probably be completely cured in the next three to five years."
Speaking of Ming Ye's condition, Ming Cang and his wife are now blushing, and the big stone in their hearts that once weighed them down has long since been removed.
Because everyone was busy before, Fang Zhao didn't ask Ming Ye's treatment in detail, and now he came to visit, just in time to understand. He was also curious about this, but the previous treatment was not made public, Fang Zhao only learned about the progress from medical journals. But that was from the researcher's point of view, and now he is learning about the treatment from the Ming Cang couple.
After talking about the time, it was time to eat.
"Xiao Fang, have you brought a driver? We're not too particular about it here." Su Tong said enthusiastically, "I'll ask your teacher Ming to tell you what you need to pay attention to in the concert after dinner."
Yan Biao and Zuo Yu, who were called upstairs, tried their best to reduce their sense of existence, especially Yan Biao, because Zuo Yu said that he was a bandit and would scare the children. If Yan Biao usually rolls his eyes and ignores it, now he looks restrained.
After the meal, Yan Biao and Zuo Yu were sitting in the living room, their faces froze in the face of Su Tong's warm reception.
"Drink tea? Or juice?" Su Tong asked.
"No, no, we'll just drink some warm water and do it yourself. You can go and do it, we'll wait here." Zuo Yu said quickly.
Seeing that Yan Biao and Zuo Yu were uncomfortable, Su Tong didn't insist any longer, and took Ming Ye into the room to guide him to speak.
Only Yan Biao and Zuo Yu were left in the living room, and they finally relaxed.
In the face of rough men or some shrewd businessmen, they can let go anywhere, but in such a family with a strong artistic atmosphere, they really feel a little restrained, and they dare not speak loudly.
"Hey, Zuo Yu, I want to ask you something." Yan Biao lowered his voice, his face full of curiosity.
"what?"
"That Ming Ye, Professor Ming's son, what kind of disease does he have, is it really good to listen to the boss's music?"
"It can be said yes, or it can be said no."
"Yes, yes, no, no, what do you mean?" Yan Biao was dissatisfied.
"For example, the previous "A Hundred Years of Destruction" series movement from the boss is like a key key to open the door, allowing the research team to find the direction of treatment, and the rest is the work of the research team, as long as you find the right direction, When you get to the key point, you don’t have to listen to those few movements again.”
"Simply put, if you don't find the right direction, no matter how much time, human and financial resources you spend, it will be in vain." Yan Biao understood why the couple called each other so well, and since they entered the door, Ming Cang and his wife smiled on their faces. never stopped. But think about it in a different position, Yan Biao encountered such a thing himself, and so did he.
Yan Biao and Zuo Yu were gossiping about the past in the living room, and in the study, Ming Cang talked to Fang Zhao about the points to pay attention to in the concert.
When it comes to concerts, Ming Cang is helpless. Those in the upper echelons of the circle now despise the vulgarity of money, but they still have to ask the performers to try their best to take the high-end route, especially the kind of concert hall where tickets are expensive and the sales are severely restricted. It seems that only such occasions are suitable for them. High-quality artistic atmosphere.
In other words, those at the top of the circle only recognize the three major music halls in Yanzhou. Even if there is a place like the Golden Age Music Hall where you can have the opportunity to perform as long as you spend money, even if you mention it, you will be picky. "Full of money" cheesy", but still admit it.
This is a major feature of the current circle, a big bad habit, Ming Cang's strength is limited, even if he has an opinion, he can only adapt to these bad rules.
These Ming Cang also told Fang Zhao that if they can't change, they should obey the rules first.
Ming Cang also talked about some details that are easily overlooked before and after the concert.
After thinking for a while, Ming Cang said: "So, wait for a while, I'll check it out. You haven't been to the concerts in the three major halls, and you may not have a clear understanding of the concerts. I'll take you there. You will understand after watching one, and I also have a lot of tickets in hand, so I will pick one and take you to see it.”
After all, he used to be the president of Qi'an Conservatory of Music, and he is now the vice president of Yanzhou Music Association. People of Ming Cang's status will always receive some invitations, and it is common to receive concert tickets.
Usually, Ming Cang and his wife are invited. However, because of Ming Ye's illness, the couple has pushed everything aside except for some important concerts. leaf. It's up to them to decide whether to send the ticket anyway.
Fang Zhao watched Ming Cang pick and choose, and several young musicians who were quite well-known in Yanzhou were thrown aside by Ming Cang.
Seeing Fang Zhao's doubts, Ming Cang explained: "The information on the Internet can't be trusted. You have seen a lot of entertainment companies like Silver Wing, and you should also know that as long as the team behind it is strong, black can be said to be white."
This means that some people here just seem to be very capable, and the team behind them blows them too high. In fact, they have a lot of water, and they are not worth watching. It is a waste of time.
"Too many people just take concerts in the three major music halls as a necessary process, a springboard to climb up. It's not that this is completely wrong, the current situation is indeed like this, but if you even work, it's just a perfunctory , or someone behind the scenes does it for me, the utilitarian nature is too heavy, and I forget the original intention, which would be too disappointing for me." Ming Cang sighed. Whether they put their heart and soul into it, they can tell when they listen to the works.
"Oh, yes! Ha Min, this student is still very capable, and has great talent in arranging music. The quality of the concert should be good."
Ming Cang pointed to the two e-tickets above, and the other party called out, "It's a student I taught before, and also taught by your Auntie Su, who came from an arranger department. Maybe you don't have too much talent in composing, but you have the ability to arrange music. Strong."
Look at the time, the day after tomorrow night.
"Do you have time?" Ming Cang asked.
"Yes." Fang recalled. It doesn't matter, he will definitely move the time of the day after tomorrow to listen to the concert that Ming Cang chose.
It was decided that Ming Cang asked his wife Su Tong to come over and transfer Su Tong's electronic ticket to Fang Zhao.
"The medical team will come here to check Xiaoye the day after tomorrow. She won't go when she stays at home. I'll go with you." Ming Cang smiled, "It's just a weekly checkup, it's fine. She had a meeting last week and went out for a few days. , I'm guarding it, this time it's hers to stay at home, let's go to the concert."
Su Tong naturally had no opinion, and asked Fang Zhao if one round was enough, and she transferred the other tickets together.
Ming Cang stopped him, "There are a lot of them here that don't need to be seen, but they will affect the performance. When I have time, I will pick them carefully and then transfer them to him."
After thinking about it, Su Tong was right, so he only transferred Ha Min's concert ticket.
It was the day of Ha Min's concert.
When heading to the Golden Age, Ming Cang told Fang Zhao about the experience of Ha Wen as a student in the car.
"Hawen's performance at the Music Hall this time is a big step in his music career. He is also here in Hall 1. He has been preparing for this concert for 20 years..."
Ha Min is already in his fifties this year, and it is much later than many graduates who hold their first important personal concert. In fact, shortly after graduation, Ha Min started to prepare his own concert. If things go well, he will hold the first leaping concert of his music career in Hall 1 of the Golden Age in the fifth year after graduation. However, things didn't go well.
At that time, the company of Ha Min's family was in crisis, and it was impossible to have enough energy and financial resources to put on the concert. Those years were the most difficult period for Ha Min, but fortunately it has survived, and this is what it is today. .
"Hawen's music style is completely different from yours. He is more inclined to lyricism and expresses more delicate emotions. His path is different from yours. You can use it as a reference and absorb some useful experience." Ming Cang said .
After arriving at the place, Ming Cang went from the entrance to the Hall No. 1, and he would tell Fang Zhao about the details that should be paid attention to.
Fang Zhao's first concert was prepared by people from Silver Wing. Fang Zhao didn't need to worry about many things, but what about the future? What if Fang Zhao left Silver Wing and went it alone? The more you know, the easier it will be to deal with it.
Therefore, Ming Cang will explain to Fang Zhao some points to pay attention to now.
Fang Zhao was also listening carefully, remembering every detail. Sometimes, one inadvertent mistake on your part can change people's impression of you.
It's not time for Fang Zhao to be able to put on a score, so it's not good to offend the old seniors in the music industry who are invited.
After entering the venue, sit down according to the seat number on the ticket. There is a music list on the seat, the size of A5 paper, it is very thin, it looks like paper, and when you open it, you will see an electronic screen with the names of the ten pieces of the concert and the introduction of the author Ha Min.
Fang Zhao also noticed that among the ten songs, there was a hollow circle behind each one. He knew what this symbol meant, and it meant that the copyright had not been sold. If the copyright has been sold, it will be a filled circle.
There were still some whispered discussions in the concert hall, but after the official start, it was quiet.
Ha Min doesn't look old. After all, the age of the people in the new century is there. He is in his fifties, and the old century is only thirty years old, but he is a little fat, and he looks very modest, maybe because of personal experience. The reason, more calm, gives a good first impression.
After the opening thank you speech, the first song was Harwen's adaptation of a nursery rhyme from the Genesis period, which was played on the harmonica.
In the new century, the harmonica is really a niche instrument among the niche, but combined with this adapted nursery rhyme, the tune is melodious, with some innocence and purity, and some warm feelings.
After the first piece, there are re-arrangements for solo or ensemble of instruments such as violin, flute, and classical guitar.
For people in their field, music is the best way to talk, and when showing their work, they also convey their emotions.
People with deep skills can hear the resonance of music and emotion without even reading the detailed introduction of the works.
There is a break between each song to introduce the background of the creation and what the author wants to tell the audience. Fang Zhao understands these procedures in advance.
The tenth song is also the last song of the concert.
The background on the stage is dark blue, and some metal light spots and light are flowing like waves, and the stage image plays a role in setting off the atmosphere.
The tenth piece is a piano piece played by Ha Wen himself. It is adapted from the work of a well-known composer two hundred years ago. Fang Zhao once heard Nate Woods play it on an electric guitar.
The original song is cheerful and lively, while the electric guitar version is uninhibited, but the current one is different from the previous two.
On the stage, Ha Min played attentively and the tune was soothing, but what he expressed was a deeper and longer emotional trace.
The original song is more than four minutes long, and the adapted piano variation is eight minutes long, almost double the length, but it does not appear redundant, but expresses the emotions in it more vividly.
It is as if time has converged into a lake, the breeze blowing, the waves are overwhelming, and the occasional bubbles are full of the sounds of the years.
Prosperity is over, do not forget the original intention, live up to the past, and the beauty will last forever.
This is not the best version of the famous song Fang Zhao has heard, but it can also be ranked in the top three, which is amazing. Without a doubt, this is a high-quality variation.
No wonder Ming Cang recommends it.
There is no doubt about the strength of a person who can adapt this famous song two hundred years ago to such a level, and his love for music can also be seen from the work.
As Ming Cang said, even if Ha Min has encountered some bad things, endured pressures that most people have never endured, experienced ups and downs, experienced rich to poor and then rich, after seeing the cruelty of reality, still Love life, love music, quite rare.
Thinking of something, Fang Zhao smiled again.
He knew why Ming Cang chose Ha Min's concert and brought him over to watch it.
The strength, Ha Wen does have, in fact, those who can perform here may not all have moisture, there are many geniuses, but in the end Ming Cang chose Ha Wen for this game and brought Fang Zhao over to see it in person.
In fact, Ming Cang is telling Fang Zhao euphemistically, so that Fang Zhao should not be blinded by the current high popularity and interests, the ups and downs of the entertainment industry, the changes are too fast, and no one can know what the next moment of shining will be. Silent, or more brilliant
No one can guarantee.
The concert in August is naturally the best if it can be successful. If you can't, don't be discouraged. Look at this senior, Ha Wen, who is in his fifties, isn't he also getting through it step by step
The fact is exactly as Fang Zhao expected, Ming Cang was worried that Fang Zhao was under too much pressure. After all, Silver Wing is a commercial company, and everything is focused on interests, and other aspects may not be considered.
The media's scrutiny, the invisible pressure exerted by economic companies, and the evaluation of the public, all may affect his development as a person.
Ming Cang wants to tell Fang Zhao that if you fail and don't achieve the expected results, don't give up, you can't collapse, you can't be timid, you are still young, and there are opportunities.
