Chapter 945: Courage
Another weekend, five months before Anxin went to Leeds, because she had spent a little more time on the Piano Sonata in D major, and now the progress was a bit behind, and she had to hurry up a little more. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info fortunately, Chi Wenrong, the nanny, is very competent, almost full-time, so that his girlfriend doesn't have to do anything except practice the piano and don't have to worry about it.
Kong Chenhe now comes to share Yu Xinting's movements with Yang Jingxing almost every weekend, and feels that this girl's "Piano Concerto in G Major" has a bit of a signature effect, and several second-tier followers such as the Japanese Sapporo Symphony Orchestra and the Nagoya Philharmonic Orchestra have been invited, as well as British amateur orchestras also want to join in the fun.
Yu Xinting refused those second- and third-tier invitations for the sake of working in the priority unit, but the worry of her classmates and teachers was that she was restricted, making people laugh at this repertoire reserve, which is definitely the penultimate pianist in the world.
"Piano Concerto in G Major" is quite popular with the audience, but this piece is limited by content and fame, and there is no justification for a pianist, even if it is successful for ten consecutive performances, it will only get praise and like. And if there is a good Rachmaninov or Prokofiev, it is likely to be a convincing musician.
Although it is impossible for Yu Xinting to perform those difficult concertos perfectly in the foreseeable future, and Li Yingzhen will not agree to her playing La 3 on stage, a pianist should verify and show her ability to the greatest extent, Yu Xinting's ability is obviously far more than Yang Jingxing's concerto and a sonata.
In fact, pianists are similar to singers in this regard, some singers seem to only sing one song in their life, not that they can only sing this one well, but they have no opportunity to prove to more listeners that they can also sing other songs.
This is also the price of a shortcut, Yu Xinting has gained a little fame and recognition because of a concerto, but now there is rarely an orchestra willing to take the risk of rehearsing other works for her, and there will be no organizer who has a ready-made audience base and does not need to help a performer who has no precipitation and qualifications to try new challenges.
However, if Kong Chenhe didn't lie, Yang Jingxing's two songs Yu Xinting really haven't been tired of playing, that's okay. At the latest, when she arrives for the performance of the Asian Philharmonic, Yu Xinting can show more strength on the stage.
Kong Chenhe said that Yu Xinting has not yet decided what she wants to play in the Asian Philharmonic, after all, there are still three months to go, and what this girl is worried about now is whether she can return to Puyin in early July, and many of her friends are about to leave school.
Fortunately, the arrangements for mid-May are now basically confirmed, and Yu Xinting will be able to stay in New York to welcome her alma mater's visit to Juilliard's team.
On the morning of April 20, Yang Jingxing was still a priority school in his busy schedule, and he went to listen to the exchange class of his fifth-grade senior brother Han Yiming, all of which were for him.
Han Yiming is also very good, the creation is focused on academics but taking into account the number of listeners, his few multipliers that have won some small awards are still audible, at least the musicians will not be disgusted when they rehearse and play, unlike Xu Xuesi's award-winning works, the students in the performance department can only grit their teeth and persist under the pressure of the teacher.
Therefore, Han Yiming's graduation is reduced to the title of "Personality in Universal Music Language", if there is really content, it should be worth referring to people like Xu Xuesi and Luo Jiaqian.
Almost all the students from the composition department came, and there were also teachers in charge, although the scale of the scene was a little worse than Yang Jingxing's original, but Han Yiming should also feel gratified...... But it seems that he is mostly nervous.
Qi Qingnuo also came, and first walked directly to the back and asked Yang Jingxing: "Where's the rent?"
Yang Jingxing nodded: "It's almost, what about you?"
Qi Qingnuo said: "It's about the same, make an appointment?"
Yang Jingxing casually: "You decide." ”
Qi Qingnuo proposed: "After the May Day holiday, on the seventh and eighth, is there a problem?"
Yang Jingxing nodded: "Okay, I'm going to New York on the 10th." ”
"Yes. Qi Qingnuo nodded, and found that Yang Jingxing was aiming at the ground, so he simply lowered his head to show his head, and rubbed his hair: "I can't see it." ”
I can still see that the shaved place has not grown much, and although the wound is healing well, there is still a little scar, Yang Jingxing said nonsense: "Insist on medication." ”
Qi Qingnuo stood up straight, not minding at all: "That's it...... Is there any connection with Kang Youcheng?"
Yang Jingxing shook his head: "What's wrong?"
Qi Qingnuo was a little proud: "Li Fu's offensive is like a tide,"
Yang Jingxing smiled: "Envy?"
Qi Qingnuo is also happy: "I really haven't felt it...... It's very nostalgic, who still writes prose poems for girls now. ”
Yang Jingxing hehe: "Can Qing'er appreciate it?"
Qi Qingnuo warned: "...... I'll go ahead. ”
Yang Jingxing did not stay, nor did he accept the invitation of the young teacher to come to the first row, and he got used to sitting in the back.
Han Yiming is well prepared, has handouts, and has clear ideas, but his mouth is not smooth enough, and his style is not as artistic as his style.
may be because of Yang Jingxing's support, Han Yiming should temporarily take the second movement of Yang Jingxing's First Symphony as an example, which seems to be very appreciated and admired, Yang Jingxing also interacted with the stage, exchanged his ideas, and let Han Yiming express his thoughts more clearly.
Two hours later, the exchange class ended, and the students applauded the stage, which was still somewhat rewarding, and it seemed that the discussion would continue.
Yang Jingxing said goodbye directly, but told his brothers and sisters that he would come to the next few games, as well as Wang Hai, Peng Yiwei, and Qi Qingnuo, all before May Day. The focus is on the graduation concert at the end of June, and Yang Jingxing also reminded the senior brothers and sisters to prepare carefully, revealing that there should be many experts and famous artists to support the concert at that time, and the composition department will also be beautiful.
On April 22nd, the inkblot Germans finally came to the news that the two scores of "Yang Jingxing's First Symphony" and "Yang Jingxing's Piano Concerto in G major" were finally officially published in several European countries, including the United States and Canada.
However, it is also important to understand that it is not easy to typeset and print all the notes of a symphony's score, including various annotations.
The total score of the symphony is priced at 280 euros, and the total score of the concerto is priced at 60 euros, which is not a lot of money, and the symphony is released in 1,000 sets and the concerto is 1,500 sets, which is a lot of money.
Yang Jingxing really took advantage of this, not to mention taking the money, and one of the best publishers to help him advertise, and then maybe he could find the orchestra to collect copyright fees...... Serious music creation isn't really unprofitable either.
It's a pity that the Puyin composition department is in a tight budget, and it's already very hard to order ten or twenty sets of the same. It's really pitiful to have no money, and the genuine score is so expensive, in fact, many big orchestras like Puhai Philharmonic use pirated copies......
Yang Jingxing's symphonic score is considered to have been released worldwide, 402 is still busy preparing for Tang Xiaoxiao's album, planning to send Cheng Lu to Yidu to participate in the music festival on May Day, listening to Han Zhengxun's strategizing and preparing for his grand plans for a day or two, and Eyang's programmer has not yet been found, which makes Pang Xi wonder if the second king is unwilling to see the staff pay more than himself......
On the 23rd, in the school again, Wang Hai, one of the outstanding graduates of the composition department, is a pragmatist, and he is not ashamed, his opinion in the exchange class is that pop music and Mozart Beethoven are not popular, there is no need to follow others to engage in difficult academics, just like the people's living standards are still so low, and there is no need to engage in space shuttles.
Yang Jingxing agrees with some of Wang Hai's views, that a complete system is indeed needed, and all kinds of talents cannot be lacking...... The two men also flattered each other in exchange classes.
The next exchange class is Peng Yiwei, he is very cool, he has decided to sign a contract with Puhai Philharmonic to become an exclusive composer, although everyone knows that this so-called exclusive composer often has to do work such as sorting out music scores, picking up scores and even pirating, but at least he is not unemployed after graduation.
It's been a long time, Peng Yiwei took the opportunity to mention it to Yang Jingxing today, and before graduation, he still wrote a song for 306, no matter how good it is, it is also a commemoration, and it is even more vain.
Of course, Yang Jingxing, as a consultant, is very welcome, and also suggested that Peng Yiwei communicate with 306 more, saying that girls are different after joining the work: "...... It's getting better and better every day, and they're all big beauties. ”
Peng Yiwei was very yearning: "I guess it is." ”
Qi Qingnuo has an opinion: "Do you still use estimates? I have such a vivid example in front of me." ”
Peng Yiwei hey: "I often look at it and don't feel it." ”
Qi Qingnuo was angry, but also righteous: "Okay, when will you go, I'll let them dress up to greet you...... Wait for the day to be hot again. ”
Yang Jingxing has an opinion: "Why don't I have this treatment." ”
Qi Qingnuo persuaded: "You are content, every once in a while, there is a benchmark meal." ”
Peng Yiwei showed off and admired: "He Peiyuan, I only met yesterday...... It was so beautiful at the concert. ”
Qi Qingnuo was the first to surprise Yang Jingxing: "So positive? It's only been a few days?" The concert DVD was just released last weekend.
Peng Yiwei explained: "They bought it, I borrowed it to see...... Learn to learn. ”
Yang Jingxing was very disdainful: "Who can you deceive here?"
Qi Qingnuo and Peng Yiwei revealed: "This Saturday in Chongqing, you go together, see enough ......"
Peng Yiwei is in a hurry, so he followed Qi Qingnuo to the parking lot and went to the Chinese orchestra without lunch.
Tong Yichun's concert is basically once every two weeks now, and it is also because the DVD has been released, so you have to do something new on the stage, otherwise you will be sorry for the audience. Nie Shaoying and the others were busy for a while, although they basically changed the soup but not the medicine, but Yang Jingxing still had to go to Chongqing to see the new situation, so An Xin's small class also adjusted the time.
Before eight o'clock on Saturday morning, six people met at the airport, five musicians and one director. It seems that He Peiyuan and Shao Fangjie are already very familiar with their colleagues, and they are discussing going to eat hot pot or something when they arrive in Chongqing.
This society is really a reality, the director is the so-called first-class meal, and the musicians are all agent cabins. Yang Jingxing didn't want to leave the group, and when he got on the plane, he found that he and a middle-aged fat man were the only two people in the first class, and the flight attendant was not very beautiful, so Yang Jingxing wanted to change seats.
The middle-aged woman sitting in front of He Peiyuan and them happily thanked Yang Jingxing and the flight attendant, who had never sat in first class. And the bass player who was in a row with the two girls took the initiative to change seats with Yang Jingxing, Yang Jingxing sat next to Shao Fangjie, and He Peiyuan was by the window inside.
He Peiyuan should be complaining about Yang Jingxing: "Squeezed to death, are you so wide?"
Yang Jingxing explained: "Xiaojie has to keep her distance from me. ”
Shao Fangjie shook her head: "No, ......" leaned towards Yang Jingxing a little more.
He Peiyuan remembered that she was happy and shared with Yang Jingxing: "Xiaojie's parents are coming to Puhai on May Day. ”
Yang Jingxing was pleasantly surprised: "Okay, is Officer Yan free?"
Shao Fangjie denied it incompletely: "Not necessarily, it doesn't matter...... They mainly came to see me. ”
Yang Jingxing knew very well: "Haven't met yet?"
Shao Fangjie nodded: "No." ”
Yang Jingxing's eight mothers-in-law: "Did you pass the words?"
Shao Fangjie was unspeakable: "My mother called on her birthday, and sometimes she calls. ”
Yang Jingxing admired it very much: "Officer Yan is good, I didn't see that I was so thick-skinned." ”
Shao Fangjie hey, but He Peiyuan has an opinion: "I want you to take care of it, ask so many ...... Didn't you see Xiaojie blushing?"
Yang Jingxing was about to ask: "How about it? When the time comes, are you excited and nervous?"
Shao Fangjie smiled embarrassedly, and then didn't show off a little, and nodded: "Well, he stuttered on the first few phone calls." ”
Yang Jingxing hahaha: "What about you?"
Shao Fangjie: "...... Nothing to feel. ”
Yang Jingxing is really talkative: "Parents want to meet, right?"
Shao Fangjie nodded, resigned to fate.
Yang Jingxing invited He Peiyuan: "We are waiting to eat candy." ”
He Peiyuan really took herself seriously: "Who wants you to go?"
Shao Fangjie explained: "It's just to meet, nothing else." ”
He Peiyuan threatened his partner again: "I can't help you...... Be careful to schedule your time. ”
On the afternoon of May 3rd, 306 wanted to go back to the school to hold a special show, but there was no shelf at all, and it was still performed in the old hall, and he did not buy tickets, and students and teachers were welcome to guide.
Speaking of art, He Peiyuan also urged: "Yang Bailao, you are embarrassed ......"
Yang Jingxing asked: "Nuo Nuo didn't tell you, just pay the rent on the 7th and 8th of next month." ”
He Peiyuan disdainful: "Who knows how you plot." ”
Yang Jingxing said: "I'm still afraid that you are plotting......"
chatting all the way, more than three hours is not particularly difficult. After getting off the plane, the group was taken to the hotel, but they had to take care of their own lunch. Because the bassist boasted that he was very familiar with Chongqing on the way, a group of people followed him to eat some authentic hot pot after putting down his luggage.
The authentic one is indeed different, but He Peiyuan can't bear the numb and spicy one, and has no intention of challenging it, which makes it a pity to invite guests, look at how happy Director Yang eats.
The harmonica player was a little gossipy, and asked Yang Jingxing how much he was paid for the endorsement of the watch that Tong Yichun received, although it was not a luxury watch, but it was also an international brand. The blockbuster is so beautiful, and now Tong Yichun is the most popular in those high-end shopping malls with counters in Puhai.
How could Yang Jingxing know those trade secrets, and then the musician sighed that the background was still easy to use, as if he felt that Tong Yichun's musical achievements were completely ineligible for that kind of endorsement.
After eating the hot pot, I was about to rush to work, and there were a lot of tricks on the stage, so everyone from all walks of life had to get used to it. Everything is ready, everyone is ready to go.
Because it is mainly a change in stage design, Yang Jingxing supervises it with a few people in charge, but it is also quite idle and there will be no problems.
Yang Jingxing asked Nie Shaoying, Kong Yafei's new movie "Precious Men and Women" has been filming for more than a month, and it was not easy to start filming at the beginning, I don't know how the progress is.
Nie Shaoying frowned: "I also want to tell you about this...... I'll talk to you later. ”
After going through the motions, I still found some small problems, and I wanted to adjust and emphasize it, and then it was more than four o'clock, everyone rested, took care of dinner or ate a box lunch, and gathered at half past six at the latest. Yang Jingxing and Nie Shaoying were going to have a boxed lunch and go to the director's room to talk about things.
Nie Shaoying tried to stand in a neutral position and said that Kong Yafei's stubbornness was indeed part of the reason for the current bad situation, but the unprofessionalism of the investor was the culprit.
Kong Yafei has paid too much for his first commercial film, the script has been changed again and again, and all kinds of preparations in the early stage are done by himself, and even the crew is almost formed by Kong Yafei himself.
The investor is just paying money, but the hateful thing is that the filming fund that was said to be good is 8 million, but in fact only 4 million is in place, and now I have to say that there are still 4 million for post-production and publicity costs...... Two or three million propaganda is a fart, it's a drop in the bucket.
So the current situation of "Noble Men and Women" is that the filming progress is less than two-thirds, and the investor will cut off the funds, threatening Kong Yafei to change people to shoot if he doesn't do what they say.
Kong Yafei is a bitter stomach, only a few million, but there are as many as five investors, with so much money, he has to praise the so-called actors who are not bullshit, the so-called stars who get a salary of 300,000 yuan want to play a big name, and there are investors who want to implant their own liar product advertisements in the movie...... The temporary change of roles happened, the actors were caught prostituting in the filming location, the crew management was chaotic, and the investors didn't do anything all day long, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling for countless money, but they were reluctant to rent an extra digital camera......
Of course, Kong Yafei is also willing to admit that his lack of experience has caused the progress to be delayed, and it will be tens of thousands a day...... However, the investor is completely unprepared for this very ordinary thing, and has no ability to bear it, and will only use threats.
Now that the shutdown has been down for almost half a month, it is not good to change the director and fight a lawsuit, and the previous efforts have been in vain, Nie Shaoying is very worried and even more distressed: "He just doesn't want to compromise, and he doesn't want to ask for help, in fact, he still has a few friends." ”
Yang Jingxing didn't understand: "How can I help him now?"
Nie Shaoying shook his head, as if he didn't know: "...... Try to persuade him if you can persuade anyone to know how to compromise. ”
Yang Jingxing said: "With his hard work, it is normal not to want to compromise......"
It was He Peiyuan who knocked on the door, asking the two directors what they were eating, and they could also order a box lunch, and the two directors were casual, and then Yang Jingxing called Kong Yafei.
Kong Yafei was still giggling, but he found that Yang Jingxing wilted after knowing about it, and he didn't have the strength to blame Nie Shaoying for betrayal, but he didn't want to talk about the specific situation.
Yang Jingxing said that he was also involved in the creation and had the right to know, and then slowly understood the ...... Although I don't know how to do it, it does not sound optimistic.
I heard that Yang Jingxing wanted to make a move, Kong Yafei resolutely didn't need it, it was a big deal to stop doing it, anyway, it was a bag, too many dissatisfied.
Yang Jingxing still has to try to persuade him, do big things without being informal, he has been a musician for so long, and he must have created a lot of dissatisfaction for others...... In the end, we still have to cooperate. The first part is just the beginning, and children walk the same, they all crawl and roll.
Kong Yafei still has nothing to say, let him go, there is nothing to lose.
Yang Jingxing was angry, he spent so much time and effort and was reluctant, you, the director and screenwriter, have to give up like this.
Kong Yafei said that he didn't want to give up, but was forced...... In fact, he was thinking about whether to sell his house, and then mortgage the real estate of his parents in his hometown, and make up enough millions, and Lao Tzu played by himself!
Kong Yafei was still a little thoughtful: "Don't tell Nie Shaoying!"
Yang Jingxing couldn't figure it out: "You have this kind of courage, so you can't bear a little grievance ......"
Kong Yafei is still a little tendoned, and feels that the movie is his own child, which is different from the MV...... Although they are all doing things with money.
Yang Jingxing told Kong Yafei not to be impulsive first, and to ask the master himself to see if there was any good way.
Du Lin has no specific impression of Kong Yafei, who was introduced by Yang Jingxing not long ago, there are too many people to meet every day, if it wasn't for Yang Jingxing's introduction, it is estimated that he would have forgotten about it, and before he heard Yang Jingxing say the specific situation and intentions, Du Lin struck: "...... The water is too mixed, you must not get mixed in, compared with the film and television industry, Hongxing is really a paradise. ”
Yang Jingxing explained: "Because I'm also a movie fan, I can talk to him quite well, so I wonder if I can help him, let you help the staff and staff, and see if there is a way for him to make things at present." ”
Du Lin said: "If you are interested, follow me this sentence, there are many good projects, let you choose." Don't really take the mess, there are too many lessons, you listen to the advice of the old lady, don't make a fuss. ”
Yang Jingxing said: "I know that Sister Lin is for my good, but I don't have any other thoughts, just to treat him as a friend." ”
Du Lin understood: "What else can I say if you say that, Kong Yafei, right?
Well, the investment and shooting company has never even heard of a veteran like Du Lin, and the leading actor of the biggest name only vaguely seems to know the name, and he has no impression of people at all, so there is no need to ask anything else...... This kind of movie, you Yang Jingxing is embarrassed to get involved.
However, for the predicament that movies are encountering now, Du Lin doesn't feel new at all, it's too normal and common, you say that the threshold of music is low, do you think that the threshold of movies and TV series is high, it's not high at all, so they died on the beach one after another, and the corpses were not even looked at.
Of course, there is a solution, the simplest and most direct is money, but now it is definitely a meat bun to beat the dog, or use the relationship to mediate to let the filming continue, Duhrin means: "You ask the phone number of the boss of the company, tell me, and I'll see the situation." ”
Yang Jingxing refused: "Sister Lin can't come forward for this matter, it's too exaggerated." ”
Du Lin is not so kind, he will definitely not come forward, just find a middleman who can overwhelm the other party to say hello, the most urgent thing for that kind of small company is to climb high branches, and he will be grateful to Dade if he promises a relationship with a theater release.
Yang Jingxing thanked Du Lin.
