Chapter 330: Opera
Zhou Xiuying and Fang Xiping persuaded Qin Fangge so for a reason, because writing operas at a time like this, :///
It costs a lot to rehearse an opera, but on the script composition side, at most, you can only get three or four hundred thousand quick money, and it is better for Qin Fangge to write two pop songs, which is simpler and more trouble-free, and you don't have to die so many brain cells.
Because in the case of opera, other expenses such as renting a venue, hiring actors, and various expenses are also very high, and the price is low because they have always paid little attention to creation. Even so, basically an opera costs at least a million more than a million from creation to rehearsal and finally performed in the theater.
Such an initial cost is still quite stressful, at least, Qin Fangge himself would not take the initiative to rehearse an opera or something. These days, if you don't have money and want to engage in art, it's really difficult.
But Zhou Xiuying and Fang Xiping both said so, and Qin Fangge could only say that he would do his best, and he did not guarantee when it would be completed.
Zhou Xiuying and his wife are also reasonable people, and they both said that they are not nervous about the time requirements, and they also hope that he can keep more snacks and accumulate them when he usually has inspiration.
Qin Fangge also took advantage of the opportunity to propose that if he really wanted to create Chinese operas as Fang Xiping said, he could compose music, but if he wrote a screenwriter or something, he had to find someone else. Because of his own literary level, he really can't take it.
Qin Fangge was very bold, he said that Fang Xiping, a professor of Chinese, should not have a problem creating this, and looked forward to working with him.
Fang Xiping said that he could, it just so happened that he was retired, and he didn't have much to do.
Qin Fangge said happily, "If such an opera is really completed, it will be the best gift for Mr. Zhou!"
Zhou Xiuying was also happy to see them old and young discussing there, Fang Xiping is also a person who has listened to opera for ten years, including Chinese opera, but it feels not very good, in terms of influence, there are not those foreign operas famous.
In fact, this is also the tragedy of Chinese opera, there are neither excellent screenwriters nor very good composers to participate in the creation, often after an opera is created, it is not performed many times, and it is shelved.
Not only Fang Xiping and Zhou Xiuying, but also many people who love opera also hope that someone can create one or more classic Chinese operas.
But this is not an easy task, and in addition to the creators, the level of the singers performing the opera is also very important.
For Zhou Xiuying, if you want to find the best singers in the country to perform, you can have a super luxurious lineup if you want any kind of lineup, and Qin Fangge is here to press the formation!
However, this matter is also in a hurry, and it needs to be considered in the long run.
Qin Fangge's idea was to let Fang Xiping get the playwriting of the opera first, and he would compose the music later.
Fang Xiping laughed at him for doing too much music for the new version of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but in this way, Fang Xiping's requirements are higher, and his creation can be more free. Qin Fangge himself can be a little lazy, after all, he doesn't need to bother too much to think about the screenwriter's lines and lyrics that give him a headache.
Then, Fang Xiping said that he wanted to listen to Qin Fangge play the music of the Three Kingdoms TV series he was doing now, and asked him if he could play it with the piano.
Zhou Xiuying also wants to listen to what kind of music he makes, and he still has confidence in him, but it will feel better to listen to it with his own ears. And after Qin Fangge made the music, he sent it directly to the crew of the new version of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, except for the group of girls from Zuoqin who played the recording with him, no one else really heard it.
Qin Fangge said that there was no problem, but the effect was definitely not as good as that of the folk music ensemble.
Fang Xiping and Zhou Xiuying don't mind, Qin Fangge's piano is the most familiar, and the music he has created these days is imprinted in his mind, so he doesn't need to put much effort into adapting it. Even, he can use the various parts of the piano to replace different ethnic instruments to enhance the final appeal. The effect is definitely not as good as that of the folk music ensemble, but this effect alone is enough to make Zhou Xiuying and Fang Xiping, two artists of the older generation, sigh.
Fang Xiping said, "Listening to such music with the taste of the Chinese nation is really a pleasure." The history of the Three Kingdoms is indeed worth remembering in more ways, not only in television, games, but also in music and opera. ”
Qin Fangge nodded, "From traditional culture, I can absorb a lot of things to help me create music better." ”
"What's wrong with your Three Kingdoms Killing game?" Zhou Xiuying also asked him.
Qin Fangge was very strange that Zhou Xiuying also knew about things, but he didn't panic, he just said that it was almost time to go public, but he didn't care about those things himself, and left them to others to do, including publicity or something.
Zhou Xiuying told him not to spend too much effort on that, it was best to deal with it this way. In fact, Zhou Xiuying was also a little surprised after hearing that Qin Fangge had developed a game of Three Kingdoms, as if this guy knew a lot of things. However, Qin Fangge also admitted this matter through his own Weibo, and his game company launched wave after wave of publicity and promotion offensives.
Zhou Xiuying was because many of her friends and students were inquiring about it, and then she had to congratulate her on finding a good student who was a real genius, which made her a little crying and laughing.
Fortunately, Qin Fangge's current whereabouts are also clear, except for coming to her twice a week to learn vocal opera, he basically stays in his own music studio the rest of the time, not saying anything about participating in any messy promotional activities, shooting commercials and the like.
Moreover, Zhou Xiuying can also feel that Qin Fangge seems to be very satisfied and satisfied with such a life.
Of course, there are also things that Zhou Xiuying feels a little dissatisfied, although she is not a romantic teenager, but now, there are too many girls around Qin Fangge. I don't know how he plans to end up in the future, Zhou Xiuying is also very clear, now these girls, all of them have quite strong personalities, if Qin Fangge doesn't handle it well, it will be easy for something to happen. Although Qin Fangge himself doesn't seem to be able to take the initiative, he can't resist those girls taking the initiative! Especially Qin Fangge's talent, he is really impeccable, and it is inevitable to make music with him for a long time, live together, and fall in love for a long time.
But Zhou Xiuying couldn't say this clearly, so she could only worry about him secretly.
Of course, throughout history, those great musicians have basically been hurt by emotional issues, but because of this, they have achieved many great and excellent works that have been passed down to this day.
Zhou Xiuying sometimes feels that it is okay for him to suffer a little setback.
