Chapter 721: Different Styles
There are countless music producers in the whole of China, after all, a huge country has an incomparably large population base, and naturally there will be a considerable number of practitioners in many industries.
When there are more people, the probability of more accomplished people will be naturally born, and Tan Don, without a doubt, is the most well-deserved top existence in the musician industry, a leading boss-level figure!
Tan Don himself, on the one hand, is the top composer in China, and at the same time, he is also an excellent conductor, not only in China, but also in the whole world, can be said to be well-known, and has won numerous international awards.
First of all, Menjie expects to still be the Oscar award, and Tanton has won one of them.
For Menjie, even if it is just an Oscar award, the nomination of a trivial chicken rib award is enough to make Menjie have a brilliant life, and Tanton is not just a nomination, Tanton is real, and has won an Oscar award!
The Oscar Award for Best Original Music is not a chicken rib, and it can even be said to be the most brilliant music award on the Oscars, this trophy was won by Tan Don in 2001.
And in the same year, Tanton not only won the Oscar for Best Original Music, but also won another, in terms of gold content, no less than or even completely surpassing this award, another trophy!
That's ......
Grammy!
If the highest film award in the entire world is the Academy Awards, then on the contrary, the most noble music award in the entire world is the legendary Grammy Awards.
Status. is completely the Oscar in the film industry, but the Grammy Award is the highest achievement in the music industry!
Of course, if you simply compare the value of the two, then it is obvious that the gold content of the Oscars is more than the Grammys, after all, one is a film award, the other is a music award, and compared with the two, it is naturally more important and weighty for film awards.
But that's for Tanton......
Oscar. After all, it's just a film award, and even if it's the most important music award in the Oscars, it can only be regarded as a world-class top award at best.
But the Grammys are real music awards, for Tanton as a musician. Absolute glory.
After all, Tanton is a musician. I care more about it. Naturally, it's the Grammys.
And Tan Don, in 2001, won all these two awards in his own hands at the same time, and that year, it definitely shocked the entire Chinese entertainment industry. Exciting news!
Of course, Tanton himself is just a composer, not a public figure like an actor or singer. Therefore, its own fame is not as huge as that of a public figure.
Therefore, when Tanton won the Oscar for Best Original Music and the Grammy Award, the people of the entire Chinese people did not know him very well, and naturally it did not cause much of a sensation in the whole of China.
If it was Menjie who won this award, the whole of China might have been extremely shocked, but in the end, it was Tan Dun, who was not very famous among ordinary people, so it was naturally a different matter.
However, ordinary people don't pay attention to Tan Dun, but it doesn't mean that people in the entertainment industry don't care about him!
Even......
Not just cares, but cares very much, there is no one in the entire Chinese entertainment industry who does not want to be favored by Tan Dun and work with him!
Film and television stars, big-name directors, and countless investors in film and television works all want to get a song from Tan Don to serve as the theme song of film and television works.
And countless singers are also dreaming of getting a Tan Don song, and the musicians naturally want to cooperate with Tan Don to compose a classic work together and make it famous.
Compared with Li Mania, who is only involved in photo-taking activities, it is obvious that Tan Don has a higher status in the entertainment industry.
This is not to say that Tanton's level is higher, it is mainly the difference in the music industry.
(PS: Li Crazy is a made-up character, this Tan Dun is definitely a big man in reality, Xiaoxiao feels really a bunker, the pride of China!) )
After all......
In addition to being internationally famous, Tanton's own level is also extremely high, although people don't know much about him, but as long as they hear what he has written, they can definitely understand who he is in an instant!
Just to say that the theme songs and ending songs of many movies that Tan Don has written, there will be countless people who have a more intuitive understanding of him.
The movie "Hero", as well as the song of the movie "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", which has received numerous praises throughout the world, were all composed by Tan Don himself!
These two movies, I believe that even people who have not seen them have heard of them, although they are not well-known among the people, but the tunes created by Tan Don, the whole of China, there are definitely countless people who have heard them!
And......
After just entering the room and recognizing Tan Dun, Men Jie also secretly used the Heavenly King System to probe Tan Dun.
didn't expect to go out at all, Tan Dun's ability in acting and singing skills was close to zero, and even the Tianwang system didn't bother to embody it.
However, Tan Don's conducting ability, performance level, and composition level are all three abilities that cannot be detected by the Tianwang system!
Of course, this is not to say that the ability of the Heavenly King system is insufficient, but that the ability of the current Menjie himself is insufficient, and it cannot be detected at all, and all kinds of abilities exceed the level of the existence of the A+ pinnacle.
It's like the specific level of Zhou Xingchi, Fang Chenglong, Zhang Yimou, Feng Xiaogang, Huang Qiusheng and others' abilities, because Menjie's ability is too low, and they can't be detected, which is a truth!
There is no vanity under the fame, and to be able to achieve such great success, the level of Tan Don itself is indeed very high!
A pang in my heart. The arrogance on Menjie's body involuntarily retracted.
Even Menjie, who has the Tianwang system, can't help but have a little respect for the top composer in front of him, and at the same time, Menjie can't help but smile bitterly, secretly sighing that he was a little arrogant and looked down on all the musicians in the world.
Although, Menjie has the Heavenly King system. The abundant number of songs in the Tianwang system represents the level of Menjie's songwriting, as long as there are enough points, Menjie is the most powerful music creator in the entire world.
But......
In Menjie's opinion. The music composed by Tan Don can at least reach the level of 'heavenly king'. It's even quite possible. The song that won him the Oscar for Best Original Music and the Grammy Award, representing the peak of Tanton's music creation ability in this life, is the brainchild of his brainchild, most likely, surpassing the existence of the 'heavenly king'!
This is definitely a huge amount of money for Menjie that may not be earned in a few years. And this is the other party's achievements after countless years, countless sweat and hard work, even if it is Menjie. I couldn't help but secretly give each other a thumbs up in my heart!
At the same time, Menjie couldn't help but understand in his heart that Feng Xiaogang would be willing to go far for what he wanted, and did not look for himself, a singer-songwriter who also has a huge reputation, but chose Tan Dun, a master!
It's not that in Feng Xiaogang's heart, Tan Dun's level is much higher than that of Menjie, and he thinks that Menjie can't do it, but because the style of music created by the two is very different!
Although Menjie, who has the Tianwang system, can easily exchange various styles of songs from it, without the slightest restriction, the songs that Menjie has taken out are basically all pop music.
Although these songs are destined to be extremely popular, they are not what Feng Xiaogang needs!
What Feng Xiaogang needs is a song that has a retro feeling, ethereal, atmospheric, majestic, and sombre, almost poetry.
This kind of song belongs to classical music, not modern pop music, and in Feng Xiaogang's mind, it is impossible for Menjie, who focuses on pop music creation, to write the kind of song he wants.
At best, Menjie is able to write pop music with a rather ethereal feel, like the song "Tick"?
Although it is also good, it is very different from the artistic conception of the movie "Night Banquet".
After all, the background in the movie "Night Banquet" is either a gorgeous palace, an endless bamboo forest, or a snowy white snow.
All the scenery is so magnificent, and in it, it is also mixed with a series of emotions such as domineering, ethereal, and lonely.
And the main line of the movie is another tragedy, extremely poignant grievances and hatreds, such emotions can best be mixed in the song.
Only in this way can the theme song of the movie "Night Banquet" be completely consistent with the movie itself, and even express the emotions of the movie itself more fully through such a song.
Only in this way is what Feng Xiaogang wants to have!
It's just that in Feng Xiaogang's view, the difference in music style between Menjie and Tan Dun is not because the level gap is too large, and he doesn't trust Menjie or anything like that.
It is precisely because of this that at this moment, the dissatisfaction with Feng Xiaogang in Menjie's heart disappeared in an instant, and at the same time, there was still some joy in his heart.
Before, Menjie was still full of dissatisfaction with coming over with Feng Xiaogang today and seeing the so-called 'big man', but now that he found out that the other party was Tan Dun, the dissatisfaction in his heart suddenly disappeared.
Even, there was some excitement, and I was grateful for Feng Xiaogang's support.
Menjie also knew that most of the reason why Feng Xiaogang brought himself was because he knew that he was an actor and a singer at the same time, if he could have a relationship with Tan Dun, it would indeed be a very wonderful thing, and it would be extremely beneficial to Menjie's development.
And in Menjie's opinion......
The music created by Tan Don is not suitable for him, even if the relationship between the two parties is good, Menjie does not want to ask for anything from Tan Dun, Feng Xiaogang is just doing useless work.
But even so, in Menjie's heart, he was also quite grateful to Feng Xiaogang, even if it didn't succeed in the end, as long as Feng Xiaogang had this intention, Menjie would take it.
Normally, in the process of contacting friends, Menjie cares more about the hearts of others than the final result.
And......
Today, Menjie can meet and communicate with a top musician in China and even the world, and Menjie is also very looking forward to and satisfying this, and it is not for nothing.
Actors with strong acting skills, singers with strong singing skills, directors with strong directing ability, and even videographers with superb shooting skills like Li Crazy have all been in contact with Menjie, but the world's world-level musicians, Menjie is really the first time to come into contact with him, Menjie wants to see how strong Tanton's music level is!
This can be regarded as broadening your horizons, right?
After Feng Xiaogang's introduction, Menjie and Tan Dun could be regarded as acquaintances, and then the three of them had a simple chat.
In the process of chatting, Feng Xiaogang mostly existed as a lubricant, trying to help Menjie and Tan Dun communicate, wanting to establish a good relationship between Menjie and Tan Dun.
At the same time, in the chat, Tan Dun also fully expressed his optimism about Menjie, a junior in the music industry, and felt that at least in terms of music creation, Menjie's future is limitless, like an elder who likes to promote his juniors.
And Menjie, in his words, did not hide his admiration for Tan Dun, a world-class musician.
The chat between the three of them can be described as incomparably harmonious.
However, the purpose of the three of them meeting today is obviously not to get acquainted, Feng Xiaogang also has something to find Tan Dun, sighed helplessly, interrupted a little speechlessly, and was chatting excitedly about music, and even forgot about Menjie and Tan Dun, who were the middlemen.
"Tan Don, Menjie, the two of you exchange music experiences, can you wait a while? What I care about most now is actually the theme song of the movie "Night Banquet"! ”
Saying that, Feng Xiaogang couldn't help but cast a look of anticipation at Tan Dun, really looking forward to Tan Dun being able to directly come up with a high-quality tune.
And Menjie is also very much looking forward to it, wanting to see what kind of level Tanton's level has reached!
After all......
Menjie was very curious about what kind of level the music created by a top musician in the world had reached! (To be continued......)
