Chapter 347: Before
"You know what we know is through the song seeyouagain. ”
Jimmy spoke: "Then under what circumstances did you create this work to commemorate the death of Paul, and it was also included in the original theme song of Furious 7, and even won the top single." ”
Motioned to Yan Huang: "You are still the first Chinese singer to win the Billboard crown list, right?"
Yan Huang shook his head: "I didn't pay attention to it, and I didn't care." Shouldn't it?"
"Wow~"
"Bang Bang !!"
The audience applauded, and Yan Huang turned around and saluted.
"Are you Japanese?"
Jimmy learned to salute: "I have the impression that Japanese people always salute. ”
Yan Huang spoke: "And South Korea." However, Japan and South Korea are all loyal to our country, and in the early days and now, Oriental culture is a reflection of Chinese civilization. ”
After a pause, Yan Huang smiled: "It's just that no one wants to admit it now." ”
"Hahahaha!!"
The audience laughed again, including Jimmy: "You really don't look like a native of the country." The impression is very conservative and introverted, even old-fashioned and moodless. ”
Yan Huang spoke: "It's normal. There are still many Americans who believe that Zhongguo is still combing the braids of the Qing Dynasty. With the development of the times, our country has been very different. ”
Jimmy asked, "Can even a native loyal man write an English song so well and so popular in Europe and the United States?"
Yan Huang thought for a while and organized the language: "Actually, it's unintentional." ”
Jimmy wondered, "What does this mean?"
Yan Huang spoke: "Vincent Hansen." It was the white singer who sang SeeYouAgain with me. ”
Jimmy nodded, "What's wrong with him?"
Yan Huang explained: "Actually, he is the speaking teacher I hired in Zhongguo, and at the same time, he stayed in Zhongguo to find a job because he graduated from the music department. I came here today......"
Pointing off-camera.
Jimmy looked over and waved, "Hi, Vincent......"
The camera shows Vincent standing outside, and Vincent also smiled and waved.
The camera turned back, and Yan Huang spoke: "He taught me to speak, and then put on a series of movies." Say learn the pronunciation of the dialogue inside. ”
Jimmy asked, "Wait a minute, why do you learn to speak?"
Yan Huang spoke: "Because I also have the idea of entering Europe and the United States in the future." ”
Jimmy suddenly said: "So practice speaking, as you said at the beginning, at least you can't hear the singing." ”
Yan Huang spoke: "That's what it means." ”
Jimmy was puzzled: "What does that have to do with Paul?"
Yan Huang smiled: "He asked me to watch the Quick Rush series to learn oral Chinese, and I asked who to learn." Is it Vin Diesel's? He said of course he had to learn from Paul, his purest. I said yes, and as we chatted, we learned that he was a fan of Paul. He even showed me a picture of him and Paul, saying that he and Paul were friends. ”
"Wow~"
The audience praised again, and Jimmy spoke: "I understand." So this song was actually written for him, right?"
Yan Huang thought for a while: "Yes...... But the process is still a bit tortuous. ”
Jimmy said, "You go on." ”
Yan Huang spoke: "Then I didn't take it seriously. But you can feel that he really likes Paul. At that time, it seemed like it was about October last year, and after that, I was also very busy, going to school, recording songs, making movies, and making variety shows. Our domestic artists are not like Europe and the United States, they will only focus on one profession. For example, to be an actor is to be an actor, to be a singer is to be a singer, and to be a host is to be a host. ”
Jimmy corrected: "There are also hosts such as talk shows, and then go to movies." Or the singer who sings also comes to do a talk show. It's just not that much. ”
Yan Huang agreed: "Indeed. It's like film actors in our two countries almost don't change careers, they only act in movies. ”
continued: "Then maybe one day after that, I returned from recording a variety show in South Korea, and when I returned to the company, I heard the sound of crying in the music room where he often was. ”
"Wow?"
Jimmy pointed to the sidelines, "You mean Vincent?"
Yan Huang smiled: "When I opened the door, I saw a tall and handsome white man, sitting there looking at an iPad crying like a child." ”
"Hahahaha!!"
The camera showed Vincent outside the field, and Vincent covered his forehead with his hand and smiled very embarrassedly.
Jimmy laughed too: "He's crying because ......"
Yan Huang nodded: "I went in with the manager of our company at that time and asked him what you were crying about." And he told me that Paul had died. ”
"Wow~"
There was silence off the field.
Yan Huang paused and said, "I thought to myself, it's not right. I didn't have any news on the way back from South Korea, and I suddenly passed away after getting off the plane. Then he said just the news, just confirmed. It was an accident. ”
Jimmy nodded, "So you're going to write a song for him?"
Yan Huang shook his head: "No." On the contrary, I said that if you are so sad, he will be touched in heaven. He suddenly told me that he didn't actually know Paul, but he was really a Paul fan. ”
"Oh oh~"
Jimmy exclaimed: "This sounds more poignant and touching." ”
Yan Huang spoke: "He said that he now regrets that he is very useless. I didn't know what I could do for Paul except to be sad. Paul's fan club also contacted him and said that they would do a commemorative event together, but he didn't dare to come forward. ”
Motioned to Jimmy: "At this time, I suddenly thought of a way for him, I said, aren't you a graduate of the conservatory? You can try to write a song for him." When he heard it, yes. So I was happy, and I locked myself in the studio to create, and we didn't bother him, after all, he was busy. Keep going about your business. It wasn't until about a week later, when I came back from work, that I found that the sound of things smashing and falling in the studio made our manager angry. When I went in, I reprimanded him, but I stopped him. I said what are you doing, why are you doing this? He was very remorseful, he only wrote a small piece of music in a week, and he didn't write the lyrics. ”
"It's time for you to write a song for him, right?"
Jimmy nodded, suddenly speaking a little impatiently.
"Hahaha!!"
Everyone laughed in the audience, and Yan Huang also laughed: "Yes." This time I did a little favor, I said I composed music, you can always compose lyrics, right? I took the time to compose music for him in a few days, and I said you can fill in the lyrics. I'm going to get busy again. ”
Jimmy was surprised: "You're really busy. ”
laughed off the field, but Yan Huang didn't smile: "It's really busy." I have a variety show to shoot, and at the same time I can't delay my college classes. And I was going to make another movie during that time. It can be said that time is really very tight. Even if you haven't filmed before, you should understand. A variety show, plus a movie, and you have to take care of your studies, you can't squeeze out the time. ”
Jimmy nodded, "That's for sure. You only had so much time to write SeeYouAgain?"
Yan Huang spoke: "I didn't think about playing the list." So it's just a commemoration, and it's good that the mind arrives. ”
Jimmy spoke: "I believe it's definitely not for the sake of making a list, otherwise it will be more elaborate." ”
Yan Huang pointed to the sidelines: "Say that no one can talk about me, you ask him, my movie is finished, and he didn't write a word at all when I went back." It's equivalent to still doing nothing. ”
"Hahaha!!"
Jimmy smiled and looked at Vinson on the sidelines, who waved his hand behind them and took a few steps.
Yan Huang spoke: "I said." It's good. Then I'll write the words, you translate them, and the rhyme will always work, right?
Jimmy said, "It still doesn't work?"
Yan Huang shook his head: "I went out and was busy, and after I came back again, this time I disappeared with the lyrics and people." I don't know where it went. ”
Jimmy was surprised: "Ran away with the work?!"
Yan Huang was helpless: "Later, he suddenly called me and said that he was already in the United States." He didn't think he was worthy of singing the song anymore, so he gave it to his father, Mr. Tim Henson, the owner of my record label in the United States, Mercury Records. ”
"Wow~!"
The audience looked at Vincent over there in amazement, and Jimmy said, "There is this song after that?"
Yan Huang nodded: "After that, he contacted the Furious 7 crew, and then he felt very moved when he heard it, so he stayed to do the original soundtrack." Shoot music videos and the like. ”
Jimmy wondered: "But you don't seem to be there at the billboard." ”
Yan Huang spoke: "No one knows about me in the United States, but although I am not very famous in my own country, I am really busy. For example, when I was a guest at the Grammy Awards, I just finished a film crew in China two days ago. And on February 18th, I don't know if you know, we have a traditional festival in China, the Spring Festival. ”
Jimmy clapped his hands: "yes~i, know." It's the equivalent of our Christmas. ”
Yan Huang spoke: "I'm about to celebrate the New Year, just two days away, we just rushed back to celebrate the festival two days in advance in order to catch up with the New Year." As a result, he suddenly told me that I wanted to be a guest. ”
Looking at Jimmy, "I'm here." ”
"Papapapa~"
The applause from the audience can be regarded as illustrating a problem.
Next, the question is the most interesting and controversial.
Microphone events.
