"You always have nothing to do, and you've made yourself so busy!" Liu Yun looked at Chen Tianliao's tired appearance and couldn't help but complain.

Chen Tianliao smiled bitterly: "Okay, if you don't get busy now, you will have to be busy in the future." ”

"You just can't get enough of everything. Liu Yun complained and put on a coat for Chen Tianliao.

"I'll drive you, you have a good rest in the car. Takekawa appeared at the door and said.

"No, I have a driver. Chen Tianliao said.

"I'll open it for you this time. Takekawa laughed, "I haven't driven in the United States for a long time. ”

Chen Tianliao shook his head and said, "Don't you say that I still forgot." No, you obediently follow me in the car. You are a left-hand drive car, and it is easy to have an accident if you are not careful. There will be a chance for you to get used to it in the future. ”

Takekawa looked at his anxious look, smiled and shrugged, acquiescing to his request.

Chen Tianliao picked up the prepared briefcase and said with a smile: "Let's go." ”

Zhuchuan and Liu Yun both followed him and walked out. When they arrived at the garage, John Malone, a sturdy black driver, greeted everyone with a smile: "Good morning, boss!

Chen Tianliao looked at the sturdy driver with a smile and said, "Good morning, John." After speaking, he opened the door on the left side of the car and made a gesture to Takekawa: "Beauty, please!"

Zhuchuan smiled and stepped into the car, about to go inside, Chen Tianliao hurriedly said: "Don't, Mary, you just sit here, I'll sit over there." ”

Zhuchuan tilted his head slightly: "What?"

Chen Tianliao said with a smile: "Your position is the safest in the whole car, of course you should sit." With that, he closed the car door, opened the car door from the other side, and sat in.

John started the car. Zhuchuan asked Chen Tianliao curiously, "How is my location the safest?"

Chen Tianliao said: "The position behind the driver, the general driver will block in front of this position when avoiding danger. The right-hand position is often thrown out by the driver to ward off danger. ”

Takekawa pondered for a moment and smiled: "It seems to make some sense." ”

After the car drove into San Francisco, it stopped at the Hilton Hotel. Chen Tianliao and Zhuchuan walked in with their bags. After being briefed at the front desk, they came to the front of a room on the fifth floor.

Chen Tianliao rang the doorbell, and the door was opened, and a balding southern European appeared at the door, and next to him stood a young beauty.

"Buon giorno, Signorina Takegawa e Signor Chen!" said the southern European in exaggerated Italian. Very warm with the southern Italians.

"Buon giorno, Signora e Signor Bravio (Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Bravio)!" Chen Tianliao also said respectfully in Italian. Giuseppe Bravio, one of Europe's greatest directors, was also the director of this filmography of the last emperor. The stunning beauty standing next to him is Hélène Blanc, a famous French sexy actress who is currently married to Bravio and is on her way to becoming a producer.

"Chen, where are your samples?" Before Chen Tianliao could be welcomed in, Bravio asked Chen Tianliao for a sample first.

Chen Tianliao picked up the briefcase, took out two CDs from it, and said, "It's all inside." Because you are in a hurry, the rehearsal of the band is not enough, so you can listen to it first. ”

Bravio said, "Really?" he took the CD and hurried to his room, forgetting to greet the guests. Yelena shook her head with a wry smile, and said apologetically like Chen Tianliao: "I'm sorry, he is such a person." Miss Takekawa, Mr. Chen, come in with me. ”

Chen Tianliao smiled as he walked forward: "It's okay, outstanding people are always different." ”

Takekawa smiled and pointed at Chen Tianliao and said to Yelena: "Lady Bravio, this one is no less weird than Zunfu. ”

Yelena also smiled: "Yes, they are all geniuses." ”

By the time everyone entered the room, Bravio had already put the CD in the player and turned on the play button. Only the soft and distant flute sounded, and everyone's hearts were instantly captured by the music. This is a piece that was later selected into a junior high school music textbook, and it is the famous song "The Nightingale" written by the famous New Age musician Yanni.

Yanni's original name was Γιάννης Χρυσομάλλης, written in the Latin alphabet Yiannis Chrysomallis, generally written as Yanni. He was Greek and spent almost all of his adult life in the United States. His works have extensively absorbed the characteristics of music from all over the world, forming a unique style, and he is also known as "a true world musician". Just look at the locations where he performs, and you know that his music is popular with all the peoples of the world: the Acropolis, the Forbidden City of China, the Taj Mahal in India, the pyramids and the Sphinx of Giza in Egypt, the Kremlin in Russia, the Burj Khalifa (formerly known as the Burj Khalifa) in the United Arab Emirates...... Naturally, he also created a lot of works in the Chinese style. "The Nightingale" is one of them.

"The Nightingale" is a song written by the author to the nightingale, who was once enchanted by the nightingale while listening to nature. Later, when he heard the bamboo flute of Huaguo, he was surprised that its timbre was very similar to that of the nightingale, so he used the bamboo flute combined with other musical instruments, electronic music and even human voices to express the nightingale, which made people seem to be one with nature, and it was very mysterious oriental charm. No wonder Bravio was hooked.

In addition to this piece, Yanni also has Chinese-style works such as "With An Orchid" and "Dream of the Hexi Corridor". Among them, the former is used as the background music of weather forecasts by many TV stations, and every Chinese should have heard it, but they can't name it.

After the first piece of music ended, a mysterious burst of electronic music sounded again. This electronic music didn't last long before it was replaced by percussion. All hearts were captured. This percussion is not at all as loud and majestic as Western percussion, but its solemn and graceful rhythm hides a very grand power, as if the palace of a dragon is slowly opening, and it is like an ancient god slowly walking through the long river of time.

"God, this is the music of the nobility, this is the mysterious East!" Bravio roared inwardly, but his mouth could not even move. As for Takekawa, I have long been fascinated and seem to have seen the ancient and solemn Huaguo Imperial Palace, as well as the profound history contained in it. Even Chen Tianliao, even if he had heard a more perfect version of this tune countless times in his previous life, he still couldn't help but be caught by the tune at this time.

This song is "Palace Memories" by the two-piece band S.E.N.S. of the Wakoku New Age. The band is a homonym for "Thinkers", but their name is derived from the acronyms of Sound, Earth, Nature and Spirit. The two members are Akihiko Fukaura and Yukari Katsuki. Akihiko Fukaura, who came from a rock background and specializes in modern music production, while Yukari Katsuki, a female member, is biased towards composing and arranging classical music, and the combination of the two has formed a unique style. This poem "Thoughts of the Forbidden City" has been widely used in programs describing the Forbidden City or history in China and China, and has become a classic of Chinese style works. In addition, they have also produced theme music for TV dramas in Huaguo, such as "Military Division Alliance" in 2017 and "New Smile and Proud Jianghu" in 2018.

Chen Tianliao's two CDs of 20 pieces of music include the classic soundtrack of "The Last Emperor" in his previous life, the classic music of New Age, and of course, the music of outstanding Chinese soundtrack masters, such as Tan Dun's music. Bravio was so fascinated by the sound that he didn't even eat lunch, and just listened to the afternoon in a daze. Fortunately, there was also Yelena to entertain them, so as not to embarrass Chen Tianliao and Zhuchuan.

After waiting until the two CDs were finished, Bravio jumped up from the sofa, walked in front of Chen Tianliao, grabbed his shoulders hard, and almost roared: "Chen, you demon, look what you have done?!You want me to pick the soundtrack of my movie from here?! Oh, no, it's too painful! You still give me the urge to change the script, damn it!" After saying that, he glared at Chen Tianliao viciously.

"My dear, you should have shown Chen the detailed script in the first place, instead of describing the outline to him. Elena hit the nail on the head when she pointed out her husband's mistakes.

"Where would I have thought that Chen was such a genius! God, how long has it been, and he has brought me so much music...... Chen, I'm sorry, I was impulsive, but I need time to calm down, and I need time to choose......" The Italians were almost incoherent.

Chen Tianliao nodded in understanding and said, "It's okay, you can choose slowly, don't worry." ”

Bravio nodded, and turned on the CD's play button again.

Yelena looked at Chen Tianliao with an apologetic face and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Chen, you also saw it, my husband ......"

Chen Tianliao hurriedly said: "It's okay, madam, I think this is very good, only such a serious person can make my music better used." By the way, it's not too late, I've got some things that I need to go back to. Thank you for your hospitality, France is the gastronomic capital of the world. ”

Yelena smiled happily, "Thank you for the compliment." Next time you come, I'll treat you to a French dinner again!"

Chen Tianliao and Elena chatted casually, and then said goodbye to Zhuchuan.

"You're really good, you've made a fool of an internationally renowned director. Takekawa said jokingly.

Chen Tianliao shrugged his shoulders and said, "The charm of music is endless. ”

"Your music is so good. To be honest, I've been hooked too. If they come out on an album, I'll treasure them!" Takekawa said.

Chen Tianliao said: "You must be indispensable." How's your business going?"

Takekawa said, "There is no news from the sperm bank yet. Suitable donors are not easy to find. ”

Chen Tianliao laughed and said: "That's right, what kind of person is our Miss Zhuchuan, how can you use those cats and dogs to be perfunctory?"

Takekawa was stunned: "What are you talking about!"

Chen Tianliao said: "I praise you!"

The two laughed and arrived at the gate. John was already waiting there in his car.

After getting into the car, Zhuchuan suddenly said: "Xiao Liao, after you are busy, I want to ask you for something." ”
