Remember [Martial Arts β Γ· in a second? Textβη½.], update fast, no pop-ups, free to read!
The second floor is his main work area, which is much more spacious than the one below, and is also a meeting place, and the third floor is his living apartment.
"Your nose is like a dog, I was about to start a meal, and you came looking for the taste." Li Zhongsheng scolded with a smile, not polite to him at all. Chen Bo has indeed never seen him play a big name with anyone, and he looks like a big brother with everyone.
"Yo, you still have guests here," Chen Bo saw that there were other people in the studio, and said embarrassedly, "It's me who is abrupt." β
"It's all friends, I'll introduce you to it." Li Zhongsheng pulled him to the inner room, and Chen Bo fixed his eyes and saw that he really knew this person, but the other party didn't know him. Born in Saigon, Vietnam, the famous director Xu Ke is typical of his slender figure and a short beard on his chin.
"I know this, the famous Director Xu, I grew up watching your movies." It's quite a surprise to see him Chen Bo, for children born in the 80s, there is a lack of entertainment activities in the process of growing up.
And every teenager has a martial arts plot of fighting swords and angry horses, most of which are martial arts from the three famous masters, as well as those movies and videos from Hong Kong Island, and the best of them is Xu Ke, which can be said to have created a martial arts era that belongs to him after Shaw Brothers.
"Old man Xu, this is a young hero, Maidong music is what he did, and there are Internet sites such as ant search. And that's not the main thing, the whole creative park you see is his private property. Li Zhongsheng is like Chen Bo's spokesperson, counting his various achievements, "By the way, he is also the founder and major shareholder of Galaxy Entertainment Group, maybe you will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future!" β
Xu Ke originally thought that he was a junior promoted by Li Zhongsheng, so it was understandable that he had a better relationship, but now after listening to his introduction, he understands that this is a young man who can be equal to them.
"Long admiration, long admiration. Since ancient times, heroes have been teenagers, but I didn't expect to meet such outstanding characters today. "Xu Ke has been in the rivers and lakes for so many years, and his emotional intelligence is naturally not low, of course he will not pretend to be a big deal, this is the capital, and there are many capable people who hide the dragon and crouching tiger. The kind of small places on Hong Kong Island are just controlled by a few big families, but the mainland is much more complicated.
has such an achievement at a young age, either he is a genius or a big family, so Xu Ke's posture is still quite low.
"Director Xu is welcome, I don't know what good works I have been preparing recently, but we can cooperate in the mainland market in the future."
"There must be a chance." Xu Ke replied, it's better to be perfunctory when you can't figure out the other party, who will pat your chest and pack tickets in a private relationship? And the other party may not be genuinely invited.
"Later, a few friends will come to borrow a small gathering in Guibaodi, I am here to fight the front station to have a meal first, Brother Li, don't be surprised!" Chen Bo then said the purpose of this trip.
At this time, Xu Ke, who didn't want to stand aside, stared at Guan Xin behind him, and said abruptly, "This is your girlfriend, she is very similar to the heroine in a play I supervised before." β
Li Zhongsheng glanced at it and echoed, "You're talking about Nie Xiaoqian in "A Chinese Ghost Story", right?" But I think she still has a bit of Qiu Shuzhen's feelings. But this is not his girlfriend, but the female president of Maidong Music Network, who is also famous in the business world. β
Guan Xin stood up and smiled slightly, "Thanks to the two masters, I am Guan Xin." β
The two old men were a little embarrassed, if it was an ordinary person who said that she looked like a star, then she would definitely feel very happy. But in front of an excellent woman, saying that she is like other people, even if she is like the Queen of England, may not be willing to buy it.
This is just a small episode, Chen Bo hurriedly stood up and rounded the scene, and he was quite happy that his woman was praised by others. Five people sat around a small round table, chatting over a light and delicious meal.
But basically Chen Bo and Xu Ke are talking, in fact, his main ability is still in the producer, and the most famous works he directed are "Huang Feihong Series" and "Green Snake". But there are too many excellent works of the producer, "Smiling Proud Jianghu", "New Dragon Gate Inn" are the pinnacle of martial arts dramas, and the more familiar "A Chinese Ghost Story" trilogy, the "True Colors of Heroes" series is even more popular across the Taiwan Strait, three places and Southeast Asia.
I think it was also one of the seven monsters of Xinyicheng Pictures, the only one who could independently fight against the two giants of Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers, and he was a hero of the leading generation throughout the eighties and nineties. It's just that the times are changing now, even the bustling metropolis of Hong Kong Island is about to change, and the Hong Kong Island movies that eat the old books are gradually declining.
Even Xu Ke may no longer have the same talent as before, but he also has his own unique insights and understandings, and domestic directors must lack the chivalrous spirit in their bones, and even lack a romantic color.
Therefore, the most popular director in China, but all the awards are basically realistic, talking about the dark side of human nature, and the cruelty of society. Instead of discussing the spirit of chivalry, even the Hidden Dragon Crouching Tiger, which won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, was produced by Hong Kong and Taiwan directors, which can also illustrate this problem, which is also a loss caused by the missing decade to the mainland literary and artistic circles.
A few people ate slowly, it was getting late, and Xu Ke left in advance because he was passing by. And Gao Xiaosong's others also came here slowly.
Compared with these people, the exposure rate is much higher than Chen Bo, and those squatting drinkers also successfully asked for a group photo and autograph, fortunately, there are not many people, and they are not afraid of any trouble, they are still more cooperative.
Li Zhongsheng is no stranger to them, and happily accepted the invitation to join in. A few people personally set up tables and chairs under the big trees in the courtyard in front of the small building, and then accompanied them with beer drinks, preserved fruits and other snacks, which looked no different from a tea party.
Without further ado, each person holds a bottle of wine and has a glass first.
"If it's winter, it's even more comfortable to be around a small hot stove." There is a full moon hanging in the sky, and under the tree are three or five idlers singing about wine, and Huang Lei's voice is quite appropriate.
"In ancient times, there were scribes talking around the fireplace, and now there is a fireside concert in the courtyard of the living house." Gao Xiaosong waved a folding fan, really thinking of himself as an ancient literati.
"Fireside concert, this is good." Li Zhongsheng said happily, "I have to make a sign to hang on this tree when I go back." β
"Get a draught beer and make the whole barbecue even more exciting." Zhou Xun cheered, this woman is not only a wine barrel but also a foodie.
"Brother Li, you are the master of this, or you can give us a sample." Seeing the willow tops on the moon, it's better to hurry up and open, and you can't drink dry.
"When I first arrived in Shanghai last autumn, I felt a bit of a sad atmosphere, so I always had a melody in my heart, and now I haven't filled in the lyrics, so I will simply sing two sentences."
"Okay, the tune written by Brother Li will naturally not be bad, let's listen to it."
Several people clapped their hands and cheered, how could a godfather-level musician allow himself to have failed works.
Li Zhongsheng stroked the guitar and began to play and sing
"There are many things I want to say but haven't said yet
I saved it because I wanted to write a song
Let people sing softly
Faintly remembered
Even if you finally forget it, it's worth it
β¦β¦
Hippie smiling face facing the difficulties of life"
The melody of this song is simple, and it is not particularly outstanding in terms of the structure of the lyrics and songs, but the important thing is the artistic conception in it, which is more like a summary of his life. Although there is also a marriage change about him in the tabloid news, Chen Bo is not easy to gossip, and he has indeed never seen the two of them together, which probably contributed to the birth of this song.
The simple tone and his vicissitudes of life and steady timbre immediately fascinated several people.
"That's it, sacrifice ugliness, sacrifice ugliness." Li Zhongsheng sang here and collected the sound of the piano, not without regret.
"Nice, like poetry." Several people and women chimed in.
At this time, Chen Bo held the guitar, swept the strings a few times, played the tune just now, and said, "Brother Li, I dare to try to take it?" β
"I can't ask for it, but I listen to it."
"Maybe we never matured
Before I knew it, I was getting old
Although the one who is alive in his heart is still that
Young"
Chen Bo's timbre is relatively low, but that feeling is not inferior to the vicissitudes of Li Zhongsheng, singing here has already made everyone's eyes shine, especially Guan Xin's apricot blossom eyes flashed with a blurred light, holding the wine bottle in one hand and holding the cheeks in the other hand gently swaying in the rhythm of the music.
"I look back frequently because I am uneasy
Asking for help in ignorance, shame for help
Tirelessly climb over every hill
Over the hills, though it is white-headed
Chatter, sorrow when I don't give it
has not yet seen immortality as desired
Just lose yourself first."
Singing this, it is already in the chorus part, and the words in the first half of the paragraph are a summary of life, so this paragraph is a warning to young people. The lyrics and songs are simple and popular, and the lyrics and songs complement each other, and the seamless coordination has aroused the inspiration in Li Zhongsheng's heart.
When Chen Bo's section just fell, entering a short solo, Li Zhongsheng took it over and sang the chorus once and then completely completed the whole song
"Chatter, sorrow when I don't give it
To the tease of love and the left and right of fate
Fight back without self-help until you die
Why can't I remember who gave the hug last time?
At what time ......"
"Awesome! It's amazing!! Huang Lei shouted excitedly at the two with a thumbs up, and poured another sip of beer, today is really not in vain.
"Awesome, on-site lyrics, I'll obey you if you don't accept anyone," Gao Xiaosong stroked his long hair, and was also happy.
Behind them, at this moment, there were also those drinkers who were attracted by the singing, indulging in this beautiful music, and did not hesitate to applaud.
"Don't praise me, the train runs fast because of the headband. can only say that Brother Li's music is too well written. Chen Bo waved his hand and said modestly.
"No matter how well you write, you can't fill in the words, I should thank you well." Li Zhongsheng glanced at Chen Bo gratefully, writing lyrics and composing music is all based on life accumulation and inspiration, and it is not so simple to be able to write and think.
"You guys, don't tout it, it's a fireside concert, how about everyone sing a song?" Zhou Xun proposed at this time, "If you sing well, you can drink wine, and if you don't sing well, just watch it!" β
"Aren't you afraid that Gao Xiaosong will suffocate to death?" Chen Bo teased at this time, he knew that the master who was incomplete in five tones, just look at the embarrassment on his face.
"I really don't believe I can't drink this wine today."
This person is afraid of agitation, Gao Xiaosong snorted and waved the folding fan, rolled up his sleeves and fought for his life, which also won everyone's pleasure.
