Chapter 67: Side Hustle
Bi Xia appeared, which was very surprising news for everyone. Bi Xia is very popular now, whether it is an old student or a new student in the film school, Bi Xia is a legend for them, whether they like Bi Xia or not, but it is undeniable that they all know Bi Xia, this is the popularity.
Before the school held the orientation party, everyone also speculated whether Bi Xia would come, but later received a clear answer from the school: because Bi Xia was promoting the album outside, the school did not invite him.
Which Cheng thought that the school actually threw a flower gun and gave everyone a big surprise.
Only many teachers and cadres of the student union know that the school really did not invite Bi Xia, and now Bi Xia is standing on the stage, which is only one possibility, that is, Bi Xia came to the scene today, which gave them a big surprise.
"That's the person I love day and night, how can I express it, will she accept me?"
Bi Xia sang while walking, and the warm voice came out through the microphone, which shocked the excited teachers and students in the audience.
He walked to the center of the stage, glanced at Xiao Yang and Wang Li, and smiled tacitly.
Everyone knows that Bi Xia sings well, and the song itself was written by him, but none of the people sitting here have actually heard Bi Xia sing live, and watching the performance on TV and the scene are two completely different feelings.
As soon as Bi Xia opened his voice, Xiao Yang and Wang Li felt the pressure.
Bi Xia sings very affectionately, he is not the kind of deliberately pretended affection, but a kind of concentration, substituting himself into the song, whether it is flat, excited or high-pitched, he uses the song itself to naturally convey his feelings to the ears of the audience.
You must know that the reason why Xiao Yang and Wang Li were able to interpret this song so well is because they resonated with this song, and the song itself may describe a certain fragment that happened to them.
And what about Bixia, his age is destined not to have these experiences, so what about his emotions?
Where do you come from, and how do you resonate with your audience?
This is Bi Xia's ability, he first substituted himself into the artistic conception of the song, and he first integrated into the song to move the audience.
"Maybe I'll never say that to her, I'm destined to wander the world, how can I be concerned"
Xiao Yang and Wang Li also sang affectionately, and for a while, the whole scene was quiet, and the clip of "Old Boy" began to play on the projection screen behind the stage.
The familiar scenes evoke memories in people's hearts.
"Dreams are always out of reach, should you give up; It's another season of flowers blooming and falling, where are you in spring"
"Youth is like a rushing stream, I can't say goodbye if I don't come back, only the numb I have no blood of the year"
When the song reaches the chorus, the voices of the three people sound at the same time.
Xiao Yang and Wang Li have been old partners for more than ten years, they are the best combination, they understand each other, cooperate with each other, and have a tacit understanding.
The combination of singers is not so easy, the harmony of the harmony, and the cooperation between each other must be tacit.
It is not an arithmetic problem that one plus one equals two to be wonderful in song chorus, and it is not necessary that two singers with strong singing skills can sing a song well.
There needs to be a degree here, you can't express yourself too much, and you can't be completely reduced to a foil, you need to integrate, which takes a long time of practice.
And Bi Xia cooperated with them on stage for the first time this time, and he blended in very well, and pushed the harmony to another peak to a certain extent.
This harmony allows the three of them to unconsciously give full play to their talents, bringing an audio-visual feast to the audience.
"Look at the flowers floating in the sky, withering at the most beautiful moment, who will remember that she has been here in this world"
As a short online film that lacks commercial operation, the reason why "Old Boy" can achieve such success is that we can all find our own shadows, our own memories of time, and memories of youth in this light and shadow.
"In the blink of an eye, many years have passed, and there have been many joys and sorrows, and the young man who once aspired to the Quartet envied Yan who flew south; The figures of their respective futures are hurrying away, where is the future ordinary, who will give me the answer"
...... "Did the original wish come true, but now I have to pay tribute, let the years dry up, and the ideal will never be the real me again"
...... "Life wants a ruthless carving knife, changing our appearance, will it wither before it blooms, I have had ideals"
Reality has the ability to make your head high, put your inner little dreams aground, and turn your wealth into "big dreams"
。
However, the withering of youth has become a reality, and as soon as life exists, dreams will have a chance to take root and sprout.
When no one blesses me, I can cheer for myself.
The story of "Old Boy" is not shocking, just ordinary daily life, brick-like old-fashioned tape recorders, BP machines, handheld game consoles and other old antiques, almost everyone can find their own shadow in it.
"Old Boy" is like a sharp knife, completely tearing the hearts of the post-80s generation!
"Do you remember the story here, if there is tomorrow bless you dear"
The song ends with the slightly sad voices of the trio.
This song is from Bi Xia, but this is the first time everyone has heard Bi Xia sing, his singing is great, he lost to Xiao Yang and Wang Li at all, as a post-90s, Bi Xia used this song "Old Boy" to sing and cry in the post-80s, post-70s, and post-60s.
"Bang Bang!"
The applause at the scene was thunderous, even the freshmen who had just entered the university found their youthful memories that had just left in the song, with tears in the corners of their eyes and red hands.
This time, the orientation party ended with applause and reluctance.
…… At noon, Bixia and a few friends from school came to a big party.
Xiao Yang, Wang Li and Wu Meizi were all present, and there was laughter and laughter at the dinner table.
When I returned home, it was close to ten o'clock, but Bi Xia didn't feel sleepy at all, this morning in Zhu Jianye's bedroom, Bi Xia had the idea of making money, and was a little urgent.
Bi Xia has always looked at money relatively lightly, and for him, as long as the money is enough to spend, it doesn't need too much.
The first time he felt that the money was not enough, it was when he filmed "Old Boy", if it wasn't for the strong support of the school, borrowing tools, and approving funds, maybe "Old Boy" would have been stillborn, or it would have been delayed for several months before it could meet the audience.
The second time was when Zang's mother was sick, and at that time, the family had to sell the house left by his father in order to treat Zang's mother, which made Bi Xia's heart feel great, and he had a sense of urgency to make money at that time.
This time, seeing Huang Xu also reminded him of his future career as a director.
There are many directors in Huaxia who are actually very good, but why are the quality of their films so bad?
Bi Xia summed it up and felt that the biggest reason was because they were interfered with by external forces.
Directors basically need to pull funds and find investment to shoot movies.
The investors found in Huaxia often don't understand movies, but they like to blindly direct, or arrange someone in the crew.
The big director may not have to worry about these problems, because even if the investor wants to recommend someone to play the role, his feelings will be properly considered, and the quality of the people who come is generally not too bad.
And the little director is not so lucky, the actors appointed by the investor may not meet the requirements of the script at all, but they have to do it, and a good movie is ruined.
The profession of director is sacred in Bi Xia's heart, and he will never allow it to be tarnished, at least not on him.
Therefore, in the future, Bixia will definitely not accept the unreasonable requirements of the investor, then it will inevitably offend the investor, and even be withdrawn, so Bixia is likely to face a shortage of film funds.
In order to avoid this situation, Bi Xia's first thought was to shoot as a sole proprietor, and only in this way was the most free creative state.
He had to have enough money.
This money is not a small amount of money, tens of millions of dollars are possible.
Looking at the United States, it is common to shoot a movie for hundreds of millions of dollars.
Thinking of this, Bi Xia's desire to make money is rising.
But making money is not so simple, in fact, Bi Xia is not rich now, but there is absolutely no problem if you want a good life.
"Fake Hero" is driven by Bi Xia's current popularity, and the subscription performance has skyrocketed, coupled with wireless click subscription, it is normal for him to have five or six million a year.
The development of the music industry is also very gratifying, and now his appearance fee has risen to 800,000, if Bi Xia is willing, he will participate in more activities, and his pocket can quickly bulge.
It's just that the money can be used in life to make his life very luxurious, but for the big money-burner who makes movies, it really is nothing, maybe a movie will cost him the savings he has accumulated for many years, which obviously can't meet his requirements.
Bixia lit a cigarette, and the long-lost smell of tobacco made his thoughts clearer.
He's thinking about his strengths and what's possible.
Slowly, Bi Xia's eyes became brighter and brighter, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and a confident smile appeared on his face, and the whole person exuded light.
When he was confused, he thought of his greatest strength, which was this memory from another world.
Many things that happened in another world in memory cannot be replicated in China, but many things can be shared.
For example, music, such as movies, television.
In addition to this, Bi Xia suddenly thought that the memory master is an IT person, he is an online game programmer, and the knowledge of various computer programming is the most profound for memory, which is his specialty, and at the same time, the memory of various stand-alone games and online games in his brain is also extremely rich, which is the theme of memory.
Music, movies, and television are just hobbies in his spare time.
Some of the games in my memory are not as good as Huaxia, but some are beyond Huaxia.
That's his chance, his strength!
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was feasible, in fact, during his time in the army, Bi Xia also read these game pictures in his mind more than once, and his mind was also excited with these pictures again and again, thinking that he could recreate these classic games in the world, Bi Xia's mood became no longer calm.
