Chapter 82: A Focused Heart
"Are you...... Hisaishi let the master?" Li Fangcheng saw this image and immediately blurted out!
"Yes, you are...... Li Fangcheng?" Hisaishi said with some surprise.
Looking at the person in front of him, Li Fangcheng couldn't calm down for a long time.
Jean Hisaishi!
A true genius, just 4 years old, Hisaishi began to learn violin in a music classroom called Suzuki Jinichi, and then in middle school, he entered the club as a trumpet player, and slowly from this time, he had the idea of becoming a composer.
In 1981, Hisaishi released his first album "Information" and established his own musical style.
As a composer, he made his first television music production in an animated film called "The Beginning of the World".
It was not until 1969 that Hisaishi entered the composition department at the National University of Music, where he studied under the name of Professor Shimaoka. During his university years, Hisaishi began to be influenced by the style of minimalist music, and began to experiment with minimalist music, and from then on, he began his creative career.
In 1983, Hisaishi was introduced to Hayao Miyazaki, who was working on the creation of "Valley of the Wind" at this time. After listening to the impression music of the Valley of the Wind composed by Jean Hisaishi, Miyazaki was deeply moved. Although it had already been decided that the composer of "Valley of the Wind" was another famous musician, Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata strongly recommended Jean Hisaishi, so Jean Hisaishi, who was not famous at the time, attracted the attention of the public.
It wasn't until 1984 that "Valley of the Wind" was launched, and Hisaishi was the music director, and his soundtrack set a record of No. 8 on the Oricon chart, confirming Miyazaki's vision, and Hisaishi's soundtrack for the film deeply touched countless audiences and critics. Two years later, he again served as the music supervisor of Hayao Miyazaki's "Castle in the Sky", composing the theme song "With You".
Since then, his reputation has risen, and now at this time period, countless people want to cooperate with Hisaishi, and even woo Hisaishi to go to other companies, but without exception, all failed, Hisaishi is not interested in the company at all, he just wants to purely produce music.
It is precisely because of this that Hisaishi has made more and more achievements in music, if in two years, in addition to cartoon music, Hisaishi will also begin to cooperate with directors, such as the well-known director Takeshi Kitano, if the cooperation with Hayao Miyazaki is a hand, then the cooperation with Takeshi Kitano, then if it is enough, Hayao Miyazaki and Takeshi Kitano are brotherhood for Jean Hisaishi.
Hisaishi's musical insistence is that it is peaceful and lyrical, which is his musical trait.
In the years that followed, Hisaishi was still such a person, some people commented on him, second-rate musicians are not counted, and some people commented that the music has not changed.
However, in Li Fangcheng's view, the idea that musicians should be on the side of classical music in later generations does not necessarily mean much, and the essence of music should be that there should be no boundaries, nor should there be a distinction between upper and lower levels.
Therefore, Hisaishi Jean has never pursued such a false name.
Li Fangcheng politely took the initiative to shake Hisaishi's hand and said politely: "I have heard Mr. Shi's name for a long time, and I am very lucky to be able to see him today." ”
"You're welcome, the name is not counted, you should learn more from Mr. Li, there is an old saying in Huaxia, the master is the teacher, and there are few people who can make some achievements at such a young age as Mr. Li. Hisaishi said with a calm expression, without the slightest pride and pride.
Li Fangcheng smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect Mr. Hisaishi to like joking so much, the smell of copper smells, in front of Mr., I don't dare to compare a little, like miracle music, the purpose of existence is just for people who really love music." ”
"No income, pure expenses, is it worth it?" asked Hisaishi.
"People who focus on music deserve this gift from the Age of Wonders. Li Fangcheng shook his head and said with great certainty.
"Focus... I like that word a lot. Hisaishi smiled.
After the group sat down, Li Fangcheng held back his excitement a little and looked at Lin Ying'er with a puzzled expression.
Lin Ying'er smiled and said, "Mr. Hisaishi was looking for a music room recently, and I just learned about it, so Jade came to visit and invited Mr. Hisaishi to come here to experience the experience." ”
"Miss Lin has been warmly invited several times, I came to see two days ago, and indeed as Miss Lin said, the environment is very suitable for my requirements, but unfortunately, Miss Lin is unwilling to transfer to me, so I have to talk to Miss Lin about leasing. Hisaishi said with a smile.
Speaking of which, Miss Lin has introduced a lot about the Age of Miracles, and I have to say that it is indeed a miracle. Hisaishi was full of praise.
"I see, I thought it was ......," Li Fangcheng said with a little loss.
"Actually, I'm very curious, what is Mr. Li's vision for miracle music, such a pure to provide such a good environment for the artists he cooperates with, and there are no specific constraints, to put it mildly, it is a great loss for anyone to leave. Hisaishi asked with confusion.
"That's right, I've thought about that too. Li Fangcheng nodded, indeed, this question is a big question, it can even be said that this is a gamble, and Miracle Music has pressed the chips, but the other party does not have any chips to follow up, no matter from which point of view, it is almost a signed musician, it is a free contract contract, and there is no obligation to be fulfilled, even if the company needs to make music, if you don't want to do it, or can't do it, you can choose to refuse.
"To say that I don't have any purpose is a lie. Li Fangcheng said helplessly.
When Hisaishi heard this, a trace of loss flashed in his eyes, his expression was slightly indifferent, and he asked lightly: "That purpose?"
"It's very simple, I just hope that there will be better music works that can be presented to all those who love music!" Li Fangcheng said in a very firm tone!
"Nothing to do with interests?" Hisaishi asked, his eyes sparkling with points.
"Resolutely no!" Li Fangcheng replied without hesitation: "If music is defined by money, I think it is insulting the people who make music, like saying, I take the money and say to Mr. Hisaishi Jean, I think your music can be sold for money, sell it to me for $1 million, will Mr. Hisaishi Jean sell it?" Li Fangcheng gave an example and asked.
"And what if I take it?" Hisaishi made the look in his eyes more obvious.
Li Fangcheng suddenly relaxed, shrugged his shoulders and said: "Then it's a pity, in a Chinese saying, the Tao is not the same, if Mr. Hisaishi is such a person, then after today's farewell, we should not know each other." ”
"Oh, Mr. Li, my ability is good, you just give up?" Hisaishi asked with interest.
"It's not about ability, it's about love and dreams. The heart has a direction, and the dream is reached. Li Fangcheng shook his head and said.
"Haha, to be honest, Mr. Li's words made me a little moved, if I didn't have the heart to do anything else now, maybe I would have come to Miracle Music for a while. Hisaishi made his curiosity about miracle music grow higher and higher at the moment.
"Mr. Hisaishi, in fact, if you think about it carefully, even in Miracle Music, you don't need to fulfill any obligations, but it can reduce the trouble of renting, I hope to invite you to become a member of Miracle Music, anyway, the contract is also very free, if you feel bad, then you can tear up the contract unilaterally at any time, and you don't need to have any burden. Li Fangcheng did not hesitate and directly invited.
"This ...... I think about it again, I'm busy ...... now" Hisaishi is also very hesitant in his heart now, but he still has something to do, and the contract is already very free, which is not a problem, but he is also afraid that it will be difficult to pay off the favor, so he hesitates.
"In fact, miracle music, more often than not, is like a hobby association, the difference is that here we will give the greatest help to people who have potential and focus on making music. Li Fangcheng added another fire and said.
"I know what you mean, let me think again. Hisaishi replied with a wry smile, no, otherwise, he was moved, but he was not mentally prepared to join a company, even if he was free, it was a company.
Li Fangcheng could see that Hisaishi Jean was actually already moved, otherwise he didn't need to think about it, he refused directly, and it was not good to push it too hard at the moment, and said with a smile: "Okay, it doesn't matter, no matter what, I have always had respect for Mr. Hisaishi, whether I agree or not, I hope that I will have the opportunity to communicate with Mr. more about music in the future." ”
Hisaishi Jean was also relieved to hear Li Fangcheng say this, no matter how he said it, Li Fangcheng is also a person with a net worth of hundreds of millions, even if he has a peaceful heart, he will feel a trace of pressure, he hopes that the decision he makes is not blind, but a choice after careful consideration.
"Oh, could it be that Mr. Li also understands music?" Hisaishi made him feel incredulous.
"It's not much, compared to you, that's not comparable. Li Fangcheng smiled and said.
"Mr. Li, Ling Donghua called over, I was looking for you, I have something urgent. Lin Ying'er just listened to it halfway, went out to answer the phone, and now came back to find Li Fangcheng in a anxious tone.
Li Fangcheng frowned, what would be in a hurry like this, is Sega here to talk about the cost of the second generation of the three games? This was talked about on the road last night, and there is no need to be so anxious about what is expected, but looking at Lin Yinger's appearance, he also knows that things must not be so simple, and he said apologetically to Hisaishi at the moment: "It seems that I have to leave, and I will talk to Mr. in detail next time." ”
Hisaishi said indifferently: "Mr. Li is busy first, and the coming day will be long." ”
Leaving the room, Lin Ying'er took Li Fangcheng to the corner and whispered, "Ling Donghua is calling from there, someone is looking for you, and I have to ask you to go back quickly." ”
"Who?Sega?" asked Li Fangcheng with a frown.
"No, it's Nintendo. Lin Yinger said in a serious tone.
