Chapter 177: Can't You Sing English If You Can't Speak English?

"California Nights" is a movie set in the 70s in the United States, about a prostitute and a priest.

Prostitutes and priests. One symbolizes the endless abyss of depravity, the other symbolizes the light of holiness, which itself is two contradictions, neither of which can be the same world anyway, but this script uses various tricks to make the two meet, and then gradually fall in love under various contradictions and ideological struggles, and finally break through many obstacles to the story of the divine temple.

Actually, it's an ironic story.

From the dialogue between the hero and heroine, Lu Yuan saw some irony and realism, and even boldly alluded to some of the depravity and erosion of the United States, as well as the ethereal philosophy of love.

The script is a good script, at least from Lu Yuan's point of view, he feels that this is a small but definitely popular movie if it is made, well, at least the reputation will not be too bad.

The café exudes elegance everywhere with the sound of the piano, and time passes little by little.

About half an hour later, Lu Yuan silently closed the script.

"Mr. Lu Yuan, what do you think of the script?" James had been patiently waiting for Lu Yuan to finish reading the script, but he couldn't wait to ask after seeing Lu Yuan close the script.

"After reading it, the script is not bad. Lu Yuan nodded.

"Could you please help me make up another tune? It's similar to Love's Romance, it's okay if it's not, as long as it fits the theme......" James continued.

"I'm sorry, Director James, I can't make up the tune. Lu Yuan closed his eyes and shook his head after being silent for a long time.

"Mr. Lu Yuan, you don't have to refuse so early, we still have a few months, a few months, I believe that with your talent, you should be able to ......"

"I'm sorry, Mr. James, I can't make any more music if I have more time, I'm really sorry, but if there are no accidents, I probably won't have any more piano pieces in the future. Lu Yuan shook his head again after looking at James' uncertain expression.

When Wang Jinxue heard Lu Yuan's words, she was stunned for a moment, and then looked slightly at Lu Yuan's smiling but sincere eyes.

This sentence sounds familiar.

Lu Yuan said it before.

Now it seems to be repeated again.

Is he rejecting James in this way?

That's not the right choice.

Wang Jinxue shook her head, and after hesitating for a while, she finally translated Lu Yuan's original words to James.

She respects Lu Yuan's choice.

"Why, Mr. Lu Yuan, what happened to you?"

James was slightly stunned when he heard Lu Yuan's words, and then his eyes gradually turned into astonishment and shock.

He barely managed to hold his coffee cup.

A pianist who is on the rise and is about to go to the world suddenly says that he will not have any piano music in the future......

This is truly shocking, if not a tragedy!

He hadn't heard Lu Yuan say anything like that before, after all, he didn't pay attention to Lu Yuan before, if he knew that Lu Yuan had also said such things, he would definitely have the same expression as Wang Jinxue, and he would definitely feel that Lu Yuan was rejecting him in this way.

"Nothing happens, some things have a beginning and an end, some people put the end off until they're too old to play the piano, and I'm just pushing the end forward to now...... And that's not what I'm looking for. Lu Yuan laughed, his voice slightly relieved.

He didn't say Jiang Langcai anymore.

Because he felt that this sentence really didn't make sense.

In fact, since he finished playing "Canon", he knew that he would not be able to play a complete piano piece from the original world in the future, and he could only play those melodies that were only a few dozen seconds long, and he remembered a lot of them.

But even these melodies could not support him in arranging the music for James.

He didn't want to lie to James.

Because to lie to him is to lie to yourself.

After Wang Jinxue finished translating Lu Yuan's words, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in her throat, and a trace of discomfort welled up in her heart.

She looked at Lu Yuan silently.

Lu Yuan was smiling, and his eyes were as sincere as before.

But I don't know why Wang Jinxue felt that Lu Yuan was telling the truth at this moment.

Maybe it will be really impossible for Lu Yuan to arrange music in the future.

Maybe that's not what I'm looking for......

Although this sentence was very relieved, it seemed that she wanted to pass something, but Wang Jinxue felt that there was something hidden inside.

What is it that makes you suddenly give up when you are about to be at your peak?

Is it your quest that is not this in itself?

"Mr. Lu Yuan, can I ask you, what is your pursuit? Is it to be a big director, or a screenwriter, or a singer, or do you want to run your own entertainment company well?"

"Hehe, none of these are any. Lu Yuan shook his head, and under the dim light, Lu Yuan slowly handed the script to James.

"Is it convenient to say?"

"Actually, I don't know what I'm after...... Well, in fact, everyone has an initial dream, but as the things experienced slowly become more and more, and there are some force majeure factors, these dreams gradually blur, or give up temporarily. Lu Yuan was also smiling, remembering that he seemed to be a little interesting half a year ago.

At that time, he had the idea that he wanted to change and never want to be an honest man again, and then he smoked, he sweared, he was messing around, and he was a little savage......

But now......

Smoking is almost quit, swear words are rarely spoken, and he doesn't mess around much, and he has learned to be polite under the bright lights.

This has to be said to be a change.

"Then what was your original dream, and has it been achieved now?" James suddenly became serious after looking at Lu Yuan's expression.

"You won't believe me when I say it. Lu Yuan touched his nose.

"How do you know that I don't believe it if you don't say it? Mr. Lu Yuan, I have always respected your talent, although we haven't met a few times, but I promise to definitely believe you. ”

"The original dream, I wanted to make some money, open a restaurant, marry a wife who can manage the accounts, and then live a dull life like this......" Lu Yuan silently drank a cup of coffee, and suddenly calmly said this sentence that had been sealed for a long time.

Wang Jinxue shook her head after translating this sentence to James, feeling that Lu Yuan was messing around.

"Hahaha, Mr. Lu Yuan, I have never seen a humorous person like you, haha, the serious expression when you said this made me nervous for a long time, I thought you were going to say something very solemn, but when you said this, I really couldn't help it, haha, the dream of a director, a screenwriter, and a great pianist turned out to be this, haha... You're so humorous... Sorry, it was a real pleasure to talk to you, hahaha......" James laughed, laughing loudly, even louder than the sound of the piano coming from next to him.

"So, you won't believe it...... I don't think anyone will believe it. Lu Yuan continued to touch his nose and laughed.

Just take it as a humorous joke.

Actually, it's nice to have a smile, isn't it?

Wang Jinxue also wanted to laugh, feeling that Lu Yuan had begun to return to her bastard nature again, but then when she saw Lu Yuan's expression, she found that she couldn't laugh.

Lu Yuan was indeed laughing.

The smile looked a little self-deprecating, though.

Today's Lu Yuan seems to be completely different from the previous Lu Yuan.

Under the lights, Lu Yuan looked very real.

She subconsciously looked out the window.

In the distance, a round of moon slowly rose in mid-air, and the bright moonlight shone on the land, adding a strange sense of desolation to the land......

"Mr. Lu Yuan, so I'm going to leave empty-handed disappointed today, right?" James' expression began to gradually change after laughing.

"There's no song, but your script has a song in my head......"

"Song?"

"The name of this song is California Hospitality, ahem, "Hotel California", I think it's very appropriate whether it's an interlude or a theme song. ”

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lu Yuan, this is an American movie, and American movies are for American audiences, so it's not appropriate for Chinese songs to appear......"

"Hotel California is not a Chinese song, but an English song. ”

"Who sings the English song?"

"If there was a guitar here, I would be the first person to sing this song. ”

"You?"

James froze.

Wang Jinxue was also stunned and looked at Lu Yuan in disbelief.

"Yes, it's me, is there a guitar here? If there is a guitar here, I want to sing......" Lu Yuan stood up and looked around, and then saw an acoustic guitar next to the piano in the distance.

He really doesn't speak English, and he doesn't even know much about it.

However, he can write several English songs.

"Hotel California" is one of them......

He loved the song, and there was even a time when he hid and secretly practiced it every day during his college days.

Of course, there are other English songs.

As for why do you practice these English songs?

The reason is simple, very rough, the same as learning piano and guitar.

He just wanted to be able to pretend to be forced.

Pretending to be forced in KTV.

Think about it!

When others sing Chinese songs in KTV, you suddenly have an English song, then you should pretend to be more forced!

It doesn't matter what the boy thinks, what matters is what the girl thinks......

"Lu Yuan, don't mess around, let's not joke with Director James......" Wang Jinxue watched Lu Yuan stare at the guitar in the distance, and then subconsciously stood up and reminded Lu Yuan.

Wang Jinxue...... I'm an honest person, maybe I would have been a jerk before, but everything I said at night was from the bottom of my heart and from the bottom of my heart, and I wasn't kidding. Lu Yuan looked at Wang Jinxue seriously and walked towards the guitar silently.

After Wang Jinxue saw Lu Yuan's serious expression, she forgot to stop Lu Yuan for a while.

So, she watched Lu Yuan pick up the guitar from a distance, and slowly walked over under the surprised expressions of several staff members.

Wait, he's here for real?

That's not right!

He doesn't even know English, how can he know English songs?

What an international joke!

However, seeing his serious appearance, it really didn't seem like a joke.

This......

Don't......

In an instant, Wang Jinxue thought of an extremely ridiculous possibility as if she had seen a ghost.

Could he really be?

And James also looked at Lu Yuan.

His expression was exactly the same as Wang Jinxue's.

He suddenly felt unbelievable.
