Chapter 288: Arrival
Boss Meng of the Beigang Shipyard recently took on a very strange job.
It is a medium-sized shipyard that mainly manufactures wooden boats for inshore fishing. Yesterday, a few men from Beijing came to the factory, claiming to be from a film company, and they needed to make two props here. Lao Meng had never taken on such a job before, which was a little strange, but he still took over the drawings in the other party's hand.
It doesn't matter if you look at it, but you can see him straight-tongued.
originally thought that the props used for filming the movie were at most a small wooden boat a few meters long and more than ten meters long, but after reading the drawings, Lao Meng found that what the other party wanted to build was actually a three-masted galleon!
This kind of big guy who has only been seen in movies and television, Lao Meng has never taken over the creation. I wanted to shirk it, but the price offered by the other party was so high that it was difficult for him to refuse!
"It's done! After building these two big ships, I don't have to do anything else in the past six months, although it is difficult, it is not difficult for my old Meng. After weighing it, Lao Meng patted his thigh and decided.
Lao Mouzi is indeed a big deal, and he actually wants to build the "Black Pearl" described by Liu Yufan according to the original proportions, and this is not counted, he is also ready to build the "Flying Dutchman" as well! The cost of these two big ships combined, I'm afraid there are not millions, Liu Yufan was worried at first that Times Records couldn't afford such a high cost, but he didn't expect the other party to agree!
Now it's a big deal. Liu Yufan, who originally wanted to shoot a simple MV for a small production, found that he had become the protagonist of a multi-million masterpiece in a blink of an eye. Of course, for a movie, it is indeed not much, but don't forget, this is just a MV. In the industry, if you invest hundreds of thousands, you can shoot a relatively simple MV, but if it is millions, it can be called a big production, tens of millions, which can only be described as a "huge production".
Liu Yufan doesn't know what Lao Mouzi thinks, it's just a piano piece, can he recover the cost if he invests so much money?
But he really admires Lao Mouzi's courage, either he doesn't shoot, or he has to shoot the best, and he doesn't think about money at all. In the Chinese director industry, apart from him, there are really few people who dare to do this.
It's no wonder that even such a major event as the Olympics was made for him to tinker with later, and in terms of the aftermath, it was quite successful.
Since they are not afraid, Liu Yufan is even more indifferent. He is the author and performer of the piece, and it is natural for him to want the production of the work to be as good as possible. It's just that this time he has opened his eyes, he thought that his net worth was already very good, but now it looks like it's really not enough. Not to mention anything else, it's not enough to even shoot this MV! Now that he understands what Li Yi said to him before, "the record company is a money-burning machine", look at this scene, shoot a MV for a few minutes, and invest so much, this is not a few hundred million funds, and it really can't support such a big mess.
It was not a matter of time and a half for such two large ships to be built, so the MV was delayed. Fortunately, Lao Mouzi's brand is big enough to hold down the field. On the side of Times Records, he didn't say anything because of the delay in filming. For the shooting of this MV, Times Records is iron-hearted, give what you want, don't ask for anything else, just the best!
After finalizing some details of the MV, Lao Mouzi took a break to look for actors, and Liu Yufan also returned to the attached middle school again to start his academic life.
It is getting closer and closer to the exchange time of the Chai Academy, during this time, in addition to the fixed time for professional classes, Liu Yufan also runs to the music building after class, and Meng Fei and Han Ge in the dormitory all laughed and said that Liu Yufan had become a "six-fingered piano demon". …,
However, making fun of Liu Yufan is making fun of it, and they still admire Liu Yufan very much in their hearts. It's all about music, and it's not easy to really talk about who admires whom. It's just that like Liu Yufan, who is still in school, he has made such a big move, which makes several people sigh to themselves. Not to mention anything else, just now that they and Liu Yufan are walking on campus, they often run out a few to sign autographs, because of that hesapinate, Liu Yufan is now famous in the attached middle school, even in several nearby conservatories, it is also famous.
Recently, Ling Yuan has opened a small stove for him a lot more frequently. A teacher of her level now takes students outside, and a piano lesson of half an hour costs at least three or five hundred yuan. However, when Liu Yufan practiced the piano in the music building at night, he often encountered Ling Yuan pushing the door in, and then gave guidance on his situation. Sometimes a few minutes, sometimes half an hour or even longer, this kind of treatment makes the other students in the piano department in the class look blushing, but there is no way, Liu Yufan is now the darling in the eyes of the teacher, and they can't envy this kind of treatment.
Ling Yuan deserves to be a piano educator. With Liu Yufan's current piano attainments, it is really very difficult to guide him, because his performance skills basically have nothing to be coached, and the rest is nothing more than the deepening of the understanding and performance of the piece. However, every time Ling Yuan pointed out, he could get to the point, which made Liu Yufan often have a feeling of "suddenly", and his respect for Ling Yuan also deepened day by day. Liu Yufan knew in his heart that in terms of piano attainments, even if Ling Yuan was not as good as Mo Yan, he was afraid that he would not be much worse. It is definitely not an exaggeration to say that he is a generation of famous teachers!
In the intense and fulfilling practice, the day of communication with Chai Yuan is gradually approaching.
Chinese students like to call the Tchaikovsky Conservatory "Chai Academy", in fact, its full name: Ukrainian Tchaikovsky University of Music. It was founded in 1913, and in 1940 the school was named the Tchaikovsky Conservatory after the famous Russian composer Tchaikovsky; In 1995, it was renamed the Ukrainian Tchaikovsky National Comprehensive Conservatory by presidential decree signed by Ukrainian President Kuchma. The Tchaikovsky Conservatory is home to a large number of world-renowned composers and music masters, and has friendly exchanges and cooperative relations with many international music institutions. The school's majors are: music, composition, conducting, string music, folk music, etc. Different teaching methods are implemented depending on the specialty. At present, the Tchaikovsky Conservatory has more than 2 international students and more than 1 advanced student from more than 50 countries around the world.
At the same time, because of its international reputation, Chai Academy also maintains good exchange relations with many well-known music institutions around the world, such as China's Zhongluyang Conservatory of Music.
A luxury double-decker bus that can carry more than 60 people slowly drove out of the Beijing Airport, and through the window, you can see that the whole car inside is full of foreign faces. However, foreigners are very common in Beijing, and not many people are surprised that such a bus full of foreigners is not a big fuss. When I saw it, I thought that this was another foreign tour group that came to Beijing to play.
However, if you are a professional art worker, you will probably see many familiar faces when you see this carload of people.
That's right, this carload of people is the teachers and students of the Tchaikovsky Conservatory who came to Beijing for exchanges, they took off from the Ukrainian airport, spent several hours in the air, and finally set foot on the land of Beijing. Looking at this exotic building, many young people who come here for the first time are full of curiosity.
"Hey, Kozlov, it looks pretty good here, China is a little more developed than I thought." In one of the window seats on the bus, a tall Russian boy with beautiful blue eyes looked relaxed and chatted with his partner next to him. …,
"yes, Growitz, it does look good here, especially the girls, oh, they look so charming." Kozlovsky looked at the flow of people outside the window and said in a joking tone.
It's almost autumn, but there are still a lot of girls in T-shirts and shorts on the street, and they have a strong attraction for these boys. -
"Hey, Kozlov, didn't you say you wanted to meet a beautiful Chinese girl before you came here? I think you'll be able to grant it soon, and your piano sounds so enchanting, they'll be conquered by you. Growitz said with a smile.
Grovetz and Kozlowski are both second-year students of the Tchaikovsky Conservatory, one majoring in violin and the other majoring in piano.
Beside them, sat a somewhat bald middle-aged man with a red nose, he was tall and looked as strong as a polar bear, this is the leader of the delegation of the Tchaikovsky Conservatory of Music - Teacher Naumov, at the same time, he is also one of the few master piano professors in the Chai Academy, and his reputation in the entire Russian piano education circle belongs to the same level as Ling Yuan, Shi Shucheng, Zhou Guangren, etc.
In fact, although such an exchange activity is nominally an exchange, but secretly, both sides of the exchange have the intention of comparison. Although some of the small performances held did not have judges, the lineups of both sides were top-notch, nothing else, just because these seemingly informal performances represented the strength and reputation of the school. Those who watched the game were all masters, and even if they didn't need to score, it was clear who was strong and who was weak.
The foundation of the Chai Academy is profound, and in the previous such exchange activities, the comprehensive quality of the students sent by the Chai Academy is often a grade higher than that of the Chinese Academy of Music. For such a result, although the leaders and teachers and students of the Chinese Academy were unwilling, they were convinced. There's no way, the strength of the people is there.
But this year is different. It may be difficult to say in other majors, but in the piano major, there is a "super genius girl" like Wang Yujia who has been rare for more than ten years.
Naumov looked at the exchange between the two proud protégés, with a faint look of smugness on his face. This is not the first time he has led a team to participate in such an exchange. For him, this kind of activity is just a DHMW to show the style of Chai Yuan...... )
