Since Zhang Chu opened his mouth to agree, it was the turn of the agent Zhou Kang to contact Kong Xiao and the others to negotiate the details, such as the determination of the recording time, the treatment issue, the length of the shot, and so on.

Now it's not that they are begging for Shonan Satellite TV, but that Shonan Satellite TV wants Zhang Chu to record the show, and of course the right to speak will be much greater.

is also a judge, Zhou Kang does not want Zhang Chu to be treated differently from other respected judges.

As Kong Xiaoyi said, the recording of "Chinese Bridge" is a big test for the contestants, and they are much more friendly to the judges, most of the time they just need to sit there and watch the performance, and only go into battle during the Q&A session.

When you don't record a show, you can travel around Shonan or write a book at a hotel, and it's convenient to go home after the summer vacation, and you can earn a little prestige.

"Chinese Bridge" was recorded quickly, but Zhang Chu had to hurry up and enrich his knowledge base now!

And this is also what he is willing to do, fortunately, these contents are quite consistent with his major, and the Chinese department is the major that learns these contents.

When I was a freshman, I learned the pronunciation and origin of Chinese characters, and I could analyze them from scratch without any hassle.

And what kind of calligraphy, China's national conditions, history, culture, folk customs and geography, and even dialects can barely come to some of them, which will obviously make him a lot easier.

The so-called judges are just a test of professional ability!

If it is really inferior to the foreign students in the Chinese Bridge, then it is estimated that the Chinese Department of Yan University will expel this person from the division.

Of course, some common sense issues may also stump the vast majority of Chinese, because people usually don't pay much attention to it. For example, what is the pattern behind the fifth set of RMB from one yuan to one hundred yuan, which will eliminate more than half of the people!

This is a typical dark lamp, and I can't remember it when I use it often.

In addition to the common sense that is not noticed, some cultural questions are also difficult, such as what is the oldest type of opera, it is estimated that some people want to say that it is Peking Opera, but Kunqu Opera is not convinced.

As a judge, at this time, you not only have to give the contestants the correct answers, but also have to tell them when the different dramas appeared, what the masterpieces are, and maybe you have to sing a section yourself.

The program team will definitely give the judges an answer, but the extended content in the back has to rely on the judges' own personal qualities, and it is impossible to diverge so far.

Now that you've taken over this job, you have to do it well and save yourself time to make jokes!

The program team will not give the judges the test papers and answers in advance, which may cause the risk of leaking the questions, the World College Student Chinese Competition is a large-scale competition facing the world, and the officials who have always liked face will never want to make any mistakes.

Therefore, Zhang Chu has to review what he has learned in the past, so that he will not talk about it when commenting, otherwise, this show may become a large-scale de-fan scene.

First of all, of course, the time to use and learn Chinese has decreased, as long as everyone can communicate normally, and there is no need to often handwrite Chinese characters, and the phenomenon of forgetting to write words is becoming more and more serious!

Ask yourself, do you recognize and know the meaning of this word when you see it, but after picking up the pen, you always forget how to write, and if you are slight, you will be reminded, and if you are serious, you have to type it out on your mobile phone and write it.

"Fortunately, my ability to master calligraphy as a beginner is already very strong, and I can also go on stage to show my hand when the time comes. Zhang Chu thought silently in his mind, and decided to go home and practice with a brush immediately, so as not to be rusty.

For the time being, he doesn't need to write a book, and he even has the leisure to copy the words on the textbook one by one to deepen his impression!

If you don't do it, forget it, if you want to do it, you can do your best, this is his consistent thinking.

……

"Yo, why did you listen to the pipa music today, this should be "Ambush on All Sides", right?"

Chen Muyang took off the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, and he found that this writer's preferences are really different from ordinary people, and he has begun to listen to real classical music, which is really amazing!

Zhang Chu folded a book in his hand "Han and Jin Famous Family Yearbook" and put it down, this book has a high reference value, it is produced by the National Library, recording the deeds of many celebrities from the Han Dynasty to the two Jin Dynasty, including Sima Qian, Jia Yi, Dong Zhongshu, Zhuge Liang, Wang Xizhi and others, all kinds of materials in it are very detailed, not written by contemporary historians, but from the Tang and Song dynasties to the summary of historical research materials from the beginning of the Tang and Song dynasties to the Republic of China.

After seeing Chen Muyang, he smiled and said, "I thought you were in the wrong place, there shouldn't be a traffic jam at this time, right?"

Previously, the two sent WeChat and chatted a few words, and the result was that Zhang Chu's new home, Chen Muyang and he also have a common topic in the field of games, the two did not forget to meet in the game thousands of miles apart, and recently they made an appointment to play a survival game, which was already popular in the past few years.

"Don't say it. The driver behind me didn't know what was going on, so he rushed up and rear-ended me, and slandered me as my fault, saying that he wanted to record a video to expose me on Weibo. Chen Muyang said angrily, "I didn't coax it, just shoot it, the traffic police are not far in front, and come directly to draw responsibility." ”

"I see, come and eat a watermelon to cool off. You actually had time to go back to Yanjing recently, I thought you were touring every week, and you said that you were going to Wukesong to support your concert. ”

One of the great advantages of Yenching is that most of the singers at home and abroad will hold a concert here, and there are more dramas and musicals than in other cities, and the entertainment activities are quite rich.

Chen Muyang shrugged his shoulders and spread out his hands: "I can't support Wukesong now, I can only go to the Gongti to open three platforms, and Yanjing Field is the first one, I have already finished thirty-two concerts, now it's time to rest!"

It's true that it's more profitable to do a concert tour, but it's too tiring for singers, and their voices can't stand it at all, and many singers don't pay attention to their voices when they're young, and they can't listen to them at all after middle age.

Zhang Chu was a little regretful, "Then I can only support you when you have the next concert, and I will definitely buy VVIP tickets." ”

"You don't need to buy a ticket to come to my concert, I will leave you whatever seat you want. Chen Muyang patted his chest, "You don't need to spend money, you just swipe your face card directly." ”

"Then it's settled. ”

If it weren't for his incomplete five tones, Zhang Chu would have wanted to sing two songs on stage as a guest, but it was purely to provide a theme for netizens.

"Your yard is really good, it looks like in the TV series, you live too chic and comfortable. If I can afford a courtyard house in Yanjing in my life, I don't know what it will look like!"

In the eyes of many people, singers and stars should be more profitable than writers, especially popular singers.

However, this has to be compared with what level, at least Chen Muyang's income is far less than Zhang Chu's now, the book sales of this product are simply a super BUG, and some netizens call him the diligent version of Adele in the book industry.

It took Adele several years to release an album, although one could sell tens of millions of copies. But Zhang Chu can publish many books in a year, and the sales of most of his works are moving towards the tens of millions level, so he is extremely diligent.

"So you don't have to write a book lately? I've heard that The Lord of the Rings is coming out. ”

Zhang Chu nodded, and he scooped up the matcha that came out of nowhere: "It's not easy for a few days, now I can read these books while preparing for the final exam to enrich the knowledge base." "The Lord of the Rings" did not open a pre-sale this time, and some were not sure of sales, but that was something that the publishing company considered. ”

The pre-sale method will be used when the release period is relatively far away, and now that the release time of "The Lord of the Rings" is set very close, Nanhai Publishing Company is naturally unwilling to spend a lot of time and energy on pre-sales, anyway, after getting it from the printing house, there will be one big truck after another to transport these brand new books to warehouses all over the country, leaving little time for pre-sales.

When "Lord of the Rings 1" came out, it was opened for pre-sale because they were a little skeptical of this Western fantasy with a weak protagonist and were not so confident in sales.

And now "Lord of the Rings 2" and "Lord of the Rings 3" no longer need to test the market, just put it on the shelf, and readers will buy it one after another!

To avoid the situation of running out of stock, almost every physical bookstore and online bookstore is stockpiling a large number of goods, so Nanhai Publishing Company has first printed 4 million copies of each one.

Printing houses are working at full capacity, and there are not many large orders like this, and the first printing of a typical work has already entered the ranks of bestsellers.

Zhang Chu is not too worried about the sales of the "Lord of the Rings" series in China now, the basic market is relatively stable, as long as he does not die, it will not be too bad.

"Norwegian Wood" did not sell well because it was too literary and relatively niche.

What he is concerned about now is whether Europe and the United States can accept this work, and the "Lord of the Rings" in his previous life is the pride of European and American readers, and it is the first place in various votes.

Especially now that the movie rights have been sold, if the sales are not good, Universal Pictures will definitely complain about the content of the contract, and it will not look good to tear the skin when the time comes.

Chen Muyang threw the watermelon rind into the trash, then took out two pieces of paper to wipe his hands, and when he wanted to hold matcha, he pounced.

The little guy is actually very proud, and he is not a stupid stranger who can hug him whenever he wants!

He wasn't so embarrassed, he was used to being rejected by cats, and after hearing the song playing from a small stereo repeatedly, he asked, "Do you really like "Ambush on All Sides" so much? ”

"These classical pieces are actually quite good, and I'm trying to keep my ears and head reminded of the melody. ”

"What's the use of remembering this melody? Are you going to play it yourself or use it in a new song?

Zhang Chu shook his head, "It's not to write songs, but to prepare for the Chinese Bridge competition." Although I didn't see the title, I think that this classical cultural content will definitely not escape this well-known classical music. Let me briefly test you, do you know what the story of this song is about?"

Chen Muyang said proudly: "I have seen this movie, which is to tell the story of Takeshi Kaneshiro, Zhang Ziyi, and Liu Dehua's love triangle! ”

Faced with a scumbag with a crown and Li Dai, Zhang Chu really didn't know how to evaluate it.

He is now starting to worry, if there is such a question at that time, and the foreign college students who answer the question are also the answers, then what expression should he use?

"Isn't that right?"

"You really should read more books. The ambush on all sides is about the battle of the overlord of Western Chu, are you embarrassed to say that you are making music?"

Zhang Chu felt that it was time to learn how to speak, so as to save the time to hit foreign players too hard, what if people lost the confidence to continue learning Chinese!

Chen Muyang didn't pay attention to it, he couldn't help laughing, "It turns out that the song Ambush on All Sides doesn't tell their story, so why do you have the same name, it's really misleading." If you test me again, I don't believe those foreigners!"

"Okay, tell me what the top ten ancient Chinese songs are, what they are, and their allusions. You don't have to say ten, just five. ”

Zhang Chu himself has only made up the knowledge after reading books in the past few days, but he doesn't know what the relevant knowledge reserves of Chen Muyang and others who specialize in music are.

Chen Muyang is also a little clever ghost, he snapped his fingers and said: "You asked so, it must be one of the ambushes on all sides, let's not talk about the allusion, it is a pipa song." In addition, everyone knows the story of mountains and rivers......"

"Count the two of you, and what else?"

"Also, what else is coming?" Chen Muyang was a little dazed, and couldn't think of it for a long time, he questioned: "Are you sure that Chinese Bridge will have such a difficult problem? In addition to these people, who would know about ordinary Chinese." ”

"You don't care if the foreigner knows it, anyway, you don't know it now. Zhang Chu said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Actually, you who make music can also draw nourishment from ancient music." Don't just think about hip-hop, blues, or R&B, it's useful to take some of these ancient tunes. ”

Chen Muyang also put away the psychology of underestimation, he originally thought that foreigners learning Chinese was nothing more than hello goodbye and the like, who knew that it would involve these contents.

Advertise yourself as a musician, but you can't even say the top ten ancient songs, so you can learn what Chinese style and ancient style song creation!

"When you go back, you must have a good understanding of the things left by these ancestors, you can read 300 Tang poems, you can't compose poems and chant, and you may be able to write good songs after receiving edification. ”

Zhang Chu inadvertently fooled an ancient style lover to come out, and now he is starting to worry, Chen Muyang's extremely powerful agent Jin Ou will not come to trouble him at that time, right?

In the afternoon, I took out the previous Chinese Bridge programs and watched them, but I didn't even know how many episodes I watched, and I forgot that I didn't have any codewords. Just hurry up now
