Chapter 224: Invitations
The next day, Liao Yuan drove to the company, and before he could sort out today's schedule, Chen Muen put a few entertainment newspapers and some news headlines from the portal in front of Liao Yuan.
"Secretly photographed?"
Liao Yuan read the content of the news, and after confirming that there was no out-of-the-ordinary report, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Just shoot it, the paparazzi also want to eat." β
Chen Muen nodded and said: "I also want to remind you that you are different from the past, living in the spotlight, there are people chasing you all the time, just now, there are many reporters squatting downstairs." β
Liao Yuan smiled, of course he understands this kind of little truth better, but if he is always on guard, he will inevitably be too tired, and he will live a lifetime, he doesn't want to keep these little things in mind all day long.
What's more, he is not afraid of shadows, Liao Yuan prides himself on being a good citizen with excellent morality, intellect and physique.
Then, he looked through today's schedule and felt a little headache.
After receiving five advertisements in a short period of time, Liao Yuan couldn't take time to rest, this kind of full and busy life he was familiar with, in his previous life, he was constantly receiving notices almost every moment, and there was not much personal space for himself to deal with.
However, the contract has been signed, and the contract money has been received one after another, as Party B, it is natural to perform the contract.
Therefore, in the next period of time, Liao Yuan traveled all over the country to shoot commercials.
Except for the procrastination of individual manufacturers, each of these five commercials was basically filmed within two days.
Every advertising film director is amazed by Liao Yuan's proficiency and performance in the advertising business, Liao Yuan's line skills are strong, and the sense of the camera is strong, which is comparable to the actor level, and everyone praises him as a natural artist.
But who knows how much effort Liao Yuan put in in his previous life in order to get to this point?
Two weeks later, the busy commercial business has finally come to an end, and Christmas is just around the corner.
During this time, Liao Yuan's first solo music album was officially formed, this new music album contains all the music works of Liao Yuan since his debut, in addition to ten solo piano pieces, there are also five Liao Yuan and the musicians of the Kyoto Opera House "Defending the Yellow River", "War Rhapsody" series, etc., as well as "Thousand Cherry Blossoms" with Pei Hongyu.
The digital album is expected to be released a week later on Christmas Eve, Christmas Eve.
In this week, Little Yellow Fish Company also tried its best to contact major music platforms for pre-launch publicity.
However, pure music has the best effect of listening to the scene, and although digital music has developed to this day, there is still a gap with the live listening experience, so the small yellow fish company does not have too many expectations for the sales of this album.
On this day, in the company's recording studio, Pei Hongyu was practicing "A Thousand Sakura".
Pei Hongyu's hard work and hard work, as well as the beauty of the music played, all amazed the tuner Lou Wenxing.
Therefore, during this time, whenever Pei Hongyu came to the recording studio to play the violin, Lou Wenxing was like a dog's leg, pouring tea and water up and down, and his service attitude was comparable to that of a waiter in a five-star hotel.
"After the boss's music album, it's your turn, Hongyu, you must come on!"
Before getting off work, Lou Wenxing encouraged.
"It's hard to say, in a short period of time, the boss didn't plan to let me release an album, I know my own strength, even if I release an album, it will not bring any benefits to the company. β
Pei Hongyu put the violin into the case, carried it on her back, and said with a smile: " You must not preface this matter in front of the boss, otherwise he must think that I am impatient, I am referring to the major piano competitions recently, the boss said, let me achieve results in China first, I have signed up for the East China Sea Isaac Stern International Violin Competition, the competition day is the end of January, and then wait for September next year, and then sign up for international violin competitions such as Paganini, if you can get a good ranking, it is not too late to release an album, the boss said, when the time comes, will help me hold a concert. β
Lou Wenxing listened with envy: "Hongyu, you are really a genius, you are very similar to a friend of mine before, whether it is talent or temperament." β
"Your friend?"
Pei Hongyu pushed open the glass door of the recording studio, turned around, and asked with some curiosity.
She used to be a pianist, but she lost her sight completely within two years due to a detachment of her cornea, and is now a professional blind tuner. β
As soon as Lou Wenxing's voice fell, Liao Yuan's surprise came from the side: "Blind tuner?"
Lou Wenxing was startled, looked back and saw that it was the boss, and hurriedly said, "Mr. Liao, when did you come?"
Liao Yuan smiled: "I just came, and my car keys were left in the recording studio. β
After speaking, he found the key on the music shelf, and before leaving, he asked curiously: "Xiaolou, you said that your friend is a blind tuner?"
"Yes, she has been learning piano since she was a child, she is extremely sensitive to music, she could have gone to the Chopin International Piano Competition to get a good place, but because of physical reasons, she was completely blind last year, and now she can only be a tuner, but life is very good, after all, the income of piano tuners is usually good, and because she is blind, people are more willing to take care of her, and they believe that she can tune the most accurate rhythm, so her income is several times that of ordinary tuners. β
When Liao Yuan heard this, he was thoughtful.
He suddenly thought of a short film called "The Tuner" in his previous life, which was a micro-film that won the French CΓ©sar Award.
Since its release in 2011, the film has been widely acclaimed and has caused a sensation in world film history.
Liao Yuan thought about it as he said goodbye to Lou Wenxing and turned around and walked towards his office.
It was already evening, and outside the floor-to-ceiling windows of the office, the lights were bright, and the bustling night scene of Lujiazui was reflected on the surface of the Huangpu River.
After Liao Yuan returned to the office, he immediately sat down at his desk, opened his laptop, and quickly clicked on the new document.
Then, on the editing bar, while recalling some of the plots of this micro-movie, I wrote the words "Tuner":
[Adrian is a talented pianist who has been learning piano for 15 years, but in the coveted Bernstein piano competition, he failed and his life fell to the bottom. γ
[After a period of adjustment, Adrian regained his strength and became a blind piano tuner.] γ
[But in fact, he just wears contact lenses, which will make others think that his hearing is more sensitive, and thus get more sympathy and consumption, and even peek into other people's lives and privacy, he immerses himself in this kind of detachment that seems to be outside the world despite the hustle and bustle......]
[One day, he came to work in a family, but he didn't know that a murder had just happened here......]
Memories are like a shuttle.
Liao Yuan stared and quickly edited the text on the document.
The more he wrote, the more familiar he became.
In his previous life, he was very amazed after seeing this short film that was only more than ten minutes long, so on many occasions, he greatly admired the whimsy of this micro-film.
is not only the famous acting skills portrayed by the actors in the work, but also the director's use of techniques on the camera, which also makes Liao Yuanda admire.
In this life, the picture of "The Tuner" suddenly came to mind in my mind, and it was also the first time that Liao Yuan had the idea of filming him.
Moreover, this is just a micro-movie, which does not cost too much money, and Liao Yuan is fully capable of self-filming, directing and acting.
The next day, Liao Yuan put the script of "The Tuner" on the agenda.
All the management in the company was stunned, and Tian Xingde was a little incredulous: "Mr. Liao...... Do you want to make a movie?"
"It's a micro-movie. Liao Yuan explained.
Tian Xingde and the others looked at each other.
Yi Zhengquan, director of operations, said: "The profit points of micro films are very small, and they are far less influential than big movies......
"It doesn't matter. β
Liao Yuan smiled slightly: "After all, this is a micro-movie, and it doesn't cost much." β
Everyone looked at each other, their faces helpless, but they all agreed.
Subsequently, Chen Muen handed a notice letter to Liao Yuan: "The Spring Festival Gala director team sent an invitation letter. β
The scene suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes looked at the gold and red paper letter in Liao Yuan's hand.
Liao Yuan opened the paper letter and saw the LOGO of CCTV printed on the top layer, as well as the words "Spring Festival Gala Invitation".
The next line reads, "Mr. Liao Yuan, hello! Congratulations to the work "Defending the Yellow River" recommended by your unit, which has been approved by the director team and successfully shortlisted for the "2022 National National Spring Festival Gala"! Here, all my colleagues in the organizing committee sincerely congratulate you! and sincerely invite your unit to participate in the recording of the Spring Festival Gala in Beijing in January 2022!
The payment is in the office of the Organizing Committee of the Spring Festival Gala, and the time is November 2021.
Different from other program groups, Liao Yuan's "Defending the Yellow River" is hand-picked by the leader and must be on the Spring Festival Gala program, so the rehearsal time can be freely chosen, and the Spring Festival Gala director team will arrange the performance time of "Defending the Yellow River" according to the on-site time.
Before the Spring Festival Gala came, Liao Yuan and the musicians of the Kyoto Opera House only needed to rehearse once and warm up the venue.
