Chapter 308: Li Kuo's stuff is too awesome
Before that, Li Kuo had drawn a book called "Selected Pop Music", in which there were a total of 15 songs. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
And now Li Kuo feels that these 15 songs just have what they want.
"Danqing" is a film that cannot be regarded as a literary film, but it is indeed not very commercial, specifically it should be a feature film.
The film industry in this time and space is a little different from another time and space, and the Chinese film industry in another time and space is still in the throes of pain, unable to find the north in the huge capital torrent, and often forgets its own direction of progress, and has not developed a path that is particularly suitable for itself.
But here, after nearly 20 years of commercialization, the Chinese film industry has gradually stabilized, and there is also a unique film genre, that is, historical films rooted in traditional Chinese culture and national characteristics.
In these historical films, there are usually things that are unique to China.
Of course, at the beginning, this type of film is easy to attract attention, even for European and American countries, it also gives them a sense of curiosity about the exotic culture of the East, which supports them to like similar types of Chinese films one after another.
But this road obviously doesn't go too far, after all, this thing is easy to get tired of.
So after that, this genre continued to develop, and most of them changed from showing culture to integrating modern film story structure and film structure, plus the flesh and blood of traditional culture to build movies.
Slowly, this road has gradually gone through, and up to now, this kind of historical and cultural film in China has gradually become a unique genre, occasionally winning in Europe and the United States, and there will be so many films a year that have a good box office.
In the traditional Confucian civilization circle and the Chinese circle in Southeast Asia, the sales of this kind of film are also good, and basically the box office of this kind of film is half of the domestic and half of the overseas box.
However, while these films have become traditional genre films, it is also not easy to stand out because there are many similar works.
So, even if there is Liu Yuze's "Danqing", he will still look for a show's breaking point.
For such a song, if it is in their eyes, it is natural to promote it, promote this song, and let the song drive the publicity and distribution of the whole movie.
Therefore, Li Kuo should be more cautious about what he writes: after all, if he writes a song like "Can't Afford to Hurt", even if the song really becomes popular, the impact on his personal style can almost be said to be catastrophic.
But now the song that Li Kuo thinks of is particularly suitable for the theme of this movie, and it is also very stylish, as for whether to use it or not, it is their business.
At that moment, Li Kuo opened the "Popular Music Selection" in his head, quickly browsed in it, and soon, he found the song "Orchid Pavilion Preface".
"Orchid Pavilion Preface" is Jay Chou's song in that time and space, Fang Wenshan wrote the lyrics, he composed the music, and this is also a golden partner.
This song is one of the more classic of Jay Chou's many "Chinese style" songs.
The overall ranking of "Orchid Pavilion Preface" is naturally not as good as "Blue and White Porcelain", but the overall quality is also quite good, and it immediately triggered a wave of popularity after it first appeared, and later this song was put into Jay Chou's "Capricorn" album.
Li Kuo now feels that this song and "Danqing" are really too compatible, originally this song is related to calligraphy and Wang Xizhi, and now, it happens to be used in the movie, which is indeed just right.
The songs in Li Kuo's "Popular Music Selection" are very complete, not just the lyrics, but including the arrangement of the song and even the playing instruments.
Li Kuo thought about it for a while, and just wrote down the relatively simple lyrics and songs. As for those musical instruments or something, it is estimated that they will not be used for the time being, after all, if the instruments are taken into account, it is somewhat exaggerated.
Copying all the songs on paper, Li Kuo didn't plan to play anything false, so he directly dialed Liu Yuze's phone.
"Li Kuo?" Liu Yuze's tone was a little happy: "Have you made a decision?" Or is there something eyebrow-raised? ”
Li Kuo smiled on the other end of the phone: "It's indeed a bit eyebrow-raising, now I wrote a song, which is based on the characteristics of the movie "Danqing", did I send it to you or what?" ”
"So fast?!"
Liu Yuze was taken aback, he was originally worried that Li Kuo would not agree, but he didn't expect that people's efficiency would be so high!
hung up the phone, Li Kuo sent the song as an attachment, and saved the screenshot or something, which is indispensable for prevention.
Today's Liu Yuze is still mixed with Qin Xiangdong, and they also have a film score director named Xiong Chengene on their side.
Xiong Chengene is also a well-known figure in the Chinese music industry, and he also wrote some good songs at that time.
Xiong Chengene is now in charge of the soundtrack of "Danqing", as well as the theme song, which is found and performed.
Xiong Chengne, Liu Yuze, and Qin Xiangdong are still chatting about the movie soundtrack.
Xiong Chengen: "I still feel that the theme song is missing, and now the theme song of "Danqing" is either too light or too strong...... I always feel that these people are a little either/or, some are completely modern music style, and some are too literary, dragging words and spelling words, pretentious, and I don't feel the urge to listen. ”
"Yes...... I also know how hard it can be to find the right song, which is why I came to you. Qin Xiangdong probably didn't think much about Li Kuo's stubble anymore, so he was talking casually now.
"You're still going to have to try to find ...... If you really can't do it, lower the standard. Qin Xiangdong shook his head: "Although it's a pity, there is no way, it seems that it is not easy to find a song with an ancient style, which is good, and can be listened to." ”
Xiong Chengene could only nod: "Okay!" I'll try! ”
At this time, Liu Yuze said: "Director Qin, we were looking for Li Kuo last night, and he sent me a song of his. ”
"Huh? So fast! Qin Xiangdong was also instantly surprised.
Li Kuo was just the object of a casual conversation with Qin Xiangdong, and he really didn't expect much.
At that moment, he just said nonchalantly: "Then you take a look first?" ”
He felt that even if Li Kuo could, but it was only so much time, and what he wrote was definitely in a hurry, and it was too childish to use it to make the theme song of the movie.
"Li Kuo?" Xiong Chengene also knew about this, but he was also a little curious: "What song did he write?" ”
"I haven't seen it yet." Liu Yuze said: "But let's take a look together, maybe he can write something good." ”
Qin Xiangdong stopped talking for a while, but he still couldn't help but say: "Yu Ze, I know what you mean, but in fact, I mainly accompanied you to meet him last night, you see that he is so fast, maybe he didn't pay too much attention, or you two will take a look." ”
Liu Yuze frowned, but still opened the attachment in his mailbox and put it in front of the two of them.
Xiong Chengene just glanced at it curiously, and was about to continue talking with Qin Xiangdong, but at this glance, he suddenly felt that his gaze was stuck with glue......
Qin Xiangdong is exactly like this......
All three of them were completely focused on the song for a while.
"That's amazing! It's too awesome......" After a long time, Xiong Chengene first reluctantly used this word to describe his feelings. (To be continued.) )
