Chapter 32: Farming bosses in the pedestrian street
Early on Sunday morning, the headquarters building of Galaxy Video was in a festive atmosphere, and more than half of the people in the entertainment center came to work overtime, but they were happy, like a spring outing.
Director Wang Yang stood in front of the coffee machine in the lounge, waiting for coffee while silly playing at his mobile phone.
"Hehehe." He laughed.
The editor-in-chief of the planning department, Orange, happened to pass by, and when he saw his virtue, he hurriedly bowed his head and walked quickly.
A short "I miss you every day" and a 28-minute full version of the video made Galaxy Video's data break historical records on Friday and Saturday. Because of the purchase of the copyright of the "Walking Street" video, Galaxy Video also made a "wizard"-themed APP splash screen (splash screen), which is grandiose and considers itself Fang Yan's spokesperson.
On Saturday night, there was a manuscript that went through several turnovers and reached Wang Yang's hands, titled "World-class Music Comes from the Streets of China", the author ...... is a god-level figure.
Ni Hongyuan, a Chinese-American theoretical physicist, is a professor at the California Institute of Technology and a Nobel Laureate in Physics.
He is 74 years old, and although he is far away on the other side of the ocean, he cares about the motherland and occasionally points out the country on the Internet. The old man watched the video "Walking Street" and was very emotional, so he wrote a text on the same day, found the Galaxy video, and wanted to submit it.
Wang Yang respectfully called Ni Hongyuan's assistant to thank him, and had the honor to chat with Ni Hongyuan. He knew that this old man was not only a physics god, but also played the piano well.
Everything in the world is connected. Many physicists loved music, Planck loved to play the piano, Einstein could play the violin, and Mr. Feynman was a drummer.
At the beginning of the article, Ni Hongyuan talked about a small thing.
Sheldon Lee Cooper, Ph.D., a theoretical physicist and the youngest tenured professor at Caltech, came to his office and heard the song "Miss You Every Day."
Sheldon couldn't stop crying.
"Xie Er, are you okay?" Ni Hongyuan asked him. His screen name is "Xie Er".
"I don't understand what he's singing," Sheldon said, wiping away tears and choking up. "I don't understand, what the hell is going on!"
Ni Hongyuan wrote: "Sheldon is a young scholar whom I respect, he is an extremely rational young man, and many people think that he has no feelings. But in the face of music, he fell. ”
Ni Hongyuan said that music has national borders, and long national borders cannot stop the spread of music. He recalled his early study experience, and his mentor once said that to become a world-class scholar, you must have a world-class vision. And world-class means going above and beyond your environment in all aspects.
The music of this young man is also world-class.
"Friends, I'm not exaggerating, achievements have nothing to do with age. There are many outstanding poets who committed suicide before they lived to be 20 years old......"
The old man used Tagore's poem to describe Fang Yan's music: "The closest place to you, the farthest way, the simplest tone, requires the most arduous practice." ”
Ni Hongyuan finally said that physics and music have a lot in common, and the road is deep and endless. Each of us has tried our whole lives to barely get a glimpse of the world. He was shocked, relieved, and longed for more music like this in China.
Before, "I Miss You Every Day" was only praised by netizens, but it failed to enter the house. But Ni Hongyuan is different, and the two huge titles of Nobel Prize and Caltech professor have caused a strong shock.
After coordination, early on Sunday morning, Ni Hongyuan's blockbuster article was successively pushed on Star News and Galaxy Video, and major media also reprinted it one after another, all of which were placed in the headlines.
Director Wang Yang sat in the office and wrote a summary email to his superiors, which was not light. "Thinking of You Every Day" is not only invincible in traffic, but also alarmed the Nobel Prize god, which is his glory. He has always been calm, but now he can't hold it back, typing in the large group: "Brothers and sisters who work overtime are not allowed to leave, teppanyaki at night, Lao Wang is treated!" ”
There is a storm on the Internet. It's already Sunday, the media have reacted, and they have followed up with all their might, and various WeChat accounts and Weibo have also come to join in the fun, and the popularity of "The Wizard" has reached its peak. Fang Yan's WeChat group "Eating and Waiting for Death" and "Class 8 of High School" are also festive, and everyone is talking nonsense.
In the group, Shen Boyuan threw in an article from "Star Weekly", titled "The Birth of a Wizard, an Important Cultural Event in China 2017". The author is not a musician, but a very active film critic with the pen name Huangshan.
Ni Hongyuan is such a good person, he speaks in the vernacular, but this Huangshan writes much more esoteric, full of thousands of words, Fang Yan knows every word, but when they are put together, they can't understand it. But the last sentence of the end, he thought about it for a long time.
"At the end of the poem, there is music."
Poetry, the end. Fang Yan didn't understand.
He played with his mobile phone for a while, silently playing Yang Zhenyu's Fanta electric guitar. Playing the piano is against the current, and he has to practice for at least two hours a day to make a little progress.
As the old saying goes, if you don't practice for one day, you know if you don't practice for three days, and if you don't practice for a week, the whole world will know.
Yang Zhenyu and Xia Mo slept until noon before getting up, and the three of them ate beef noodles in a small restaurant.
Xia Mo asked, "Don't you go to the nameless tavern today?" ”
"No, I won't. Lao Liu seemed to be stimulated," Fang Yan finished sucking the noodles and continued. "He said he was going to take a day off, wait for him to hire a few people, and sing again on Monday night."
Yang Zhenyu knocked on his chopsticks and said, "Well, let's go on Monday." ”
Xia Mo said: "It's none of your business, you will go back to school tomorrow." ”
“……”
A small TV hangs on the wall of the restaurant, the noon news of Jiangdong Satellite TV.
The female anchor was radiant and said: "This weekend, the video of a wandering singer caused a huge sensation, a video that was only 2 minutes long, was viewed nearly 200 million times, and the full version of the video was viewed more than 50 million times. To be honest, I cried too...... The place where this mysterious singer sings is on the pedestrian street of our Jiangdong. Everyone is curious, will he appear again, let our reporter take you to the field to visit. ”
Yang Zhenyu was shocked and said, "Master,, you're on TV." ”
"Will it be recognized?" Xia Mo was a little nervous and looked around. Luckily, people were staring at the TV.
The reporter in front of him stood on the side of the street, and behind him was the position where Fang Yan was singing, and the atmosphere on the pedestrian street was warm and crowded. "Okay anchor, it's Sunday, April 16 at 12:26 p.m., and there are a lot of people on the street, please see, there are quite a few people taking photos here."
The camera pans to the left and a couple takes a selfie.
There was a sudden cheer behind him, and the camera immediately turned to dozens of young people taking a group photo. The reporter leaned over and asked, "Students, what are you doing?" ”
"Farm the boss!"
"Haha!" Several people laughed.
"Uh, Boss, what do you mean?"
"We're waiting for the boss to spawn!"
"Well, can you share with the audience, what do you think of this, this wizard?" The reporter interviewed a few words, then turned back and said: "According to the news on the Internet, this mysterious singer appeared on Bar Street again last night, will he come to Pedestrian Street again today?" I will stay on site and wait for news. ”
“……”
Yang Zhenyu was stunned and asked, "Aren't you going to the pedestrian street in a while, what should you do?" ”
"I don't know."
Fang Yan was also very helpless, he agreed to invite Yuan Yuan to dinner last night, and he made an appointment on the pedestrian street.
