Chapter Ninety-Five: "Chopin in Vietnam"

"It's an epic, atmospheric documentary, with silvery-white subtitles fading out on a short black screen, along with a singular but unusually soothing, distant, tense, ancient, suffocating, and slightly sad melody, as if to already tell us that this is going to be a tragic story of faith.

With this beginning, the escape of the Vietnamese Catholic people began. The heavy and resonant symphony awakens people from their addiction, and a great shadow hangs over the good and pious, an evil and brutal regime, a story of salvation and the search for freedom......"

The premiere was a huge success, and the two theater managers realized that in Washington, D.C., the film would definitely be a better seller than Roman Holiday. Immediately vacate the schedule, from yesterday evening to midnight, the venue was full, and the seats were full.

Media reporters and senior film critics who attended the premiere and watched it afterwards wrote articles one after another, and radio and television broadcast "Freedom Road" footage and background music clips for the first time, and this morning, major newspapers received rave reviews.

On the plane to New York to attend the Chicago Symphony's first "Freedom Road" concert, Nguyen Minh Xiu flipped through the newspapers and read excitedly: "Mr. Li Weimin, member of the International Committee of the Red Cross, president of the Vietnam Red Cross Society, and executive chairman of the 'Joint Conference on Refugee Relief' that coordinates various international organizations to help the evacuation of Vietnamese Catholic refugees, is the composer of the original soundtrack of the film, and he uses a majestic or pathetic soundtrack to set off the development of the film's plot."

The music is magnificent, and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra fully absorbs pop elements such as rock and heavy metal, and uses extremely bold techniques to bring out the work to the extreme. The percussion performance is particularly prominent, and there is no lack of tragedy and heroism in addition to the tension and intensity.

The combination of brass and strings, harmoniously integrated, magnificent, broad and magnificent, the grand movie scene is vividly expressed, the classical charm is so prominent under the interpretation of modern music, it can be called a human challenge to the limit of music, and as the film unfolds step by step, even if the film is over, the tension is still in my heart for a long time. ”

"The Road to Freedom" is a documentary, a musical film, and a promotional film with the main theme tailored for the "free world".

Early this morning, the Pentagon assigned several officers to negotiate with Feng Boqing on behalf of the US Army, Navy, and Air Force on the purchase of copies, intending to show them to US troops stationed around the world.

The Army and Navy had deep pockets, buying copies and screening rights for $600,000 and $500,000 respectively, and the U.S. Air Force had just been formed for a few years, and it didn't have as much of a base as the Army and Navy, and it didn't have as many people as the Army and Navy, and it ended up being sold for $150,000.

The production cost was recovered at once, and the net profit was more than 400,000.

has caused such a big impact, and there is basically no problem with the next national release in the United States, Feng Boqing estimated last night that the national box office can reach at least 6 million. If the Chicago Symphony Orchestra's revenue share and record sales profit share are included, the global net profit of Lee's Pictures' first work will not be less than $8 million.

It's no wonder that the Yankees treat movies as a "smoke-free industry" and are too TM to make money.

While thinking about how to shoot the second part, Li Weimin said absentmindedly: "This guy has a bit of taste." ”

"This one is even more exaggerated."

Nguyen Minh Xiu picked up the sixth newspaper and read it with a fluttering eyebrow: "The magnificent music makes me feel so small, and I think 'Freedom Road' is the best work of film documentary so far, not only because of its tragic subject matter, not only because of its profound theme, but also because of the grandeur of the original soundtrack." ”

"Anything else?"

"Yes!"

Ruan Mingxiu picked up another copy and read: ""The Road to Freedom" is a magnificent epic that needs to be savored, it can be called a realistic version of "Exodus", the shot is real and impactful, the background music is shocking and magnificent, it can be called a classic, in a majestic atmosphere, the hero's pride makes people feel angry, if you are a fan of classical music, then you must watch it; If you're compassionate, then you're going to watch.

This one was written by a music critic who said, 'The soundtrack of the whole film is a milestone in modern music, from the opening song to the ending track, I was so fascinated that I couldn't determine which one would be the theme song, and it wasn't until the Chicago Symphony Orchestra released the repertoire this morning that I realized it was a work that was extravagant enough to have six theme songs.' ’

Classical, rock, modern, thanks to 'Chopin of Vietnam' for bringing us these six masterpieces, he has put all the music producers in Hollywood to shame, and I believe that he will be the winner of the 27th Academy Award for Best Documentary and Best Original Music, and I am certain that he will not win the award for Best Foreign Language Film, because there is not a single line of dialogue in the whole film. In my opinion, there is music that shocks the soul so much, not only the dialogue, but even the subtitles are superfluous! ”

When he was in the 78 "cohabitation" of Xianyi Road, I heard him play it more than once, and I could play a few of the bars myself, Wu Lijun had long lost her freshness, and thought that "Roman Holiday" was better.

She took the newspaper and read it, and asked a little excited and a little worried: "For the people, do we really want to go on stage?" ”

In order to achieve a more sensational effect, Raphael, music director and principal conductor of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, strongly recommended that the young couple participate in the performance, Wu Lijun plays the piano piece "Exodus", and Li Weimin is responsible for the violin part of the last section of "All Together".

Today, all the celebrities such as the mayor of New York and the wealthy people on Wall Street are invited, and whether they can help the investment company recruit businessmen depends on whether they can make them happy.

As long as you can make money, you will perform on stage, Li Weimin confirmed with a smile: "Playing solo on Broadway, not everyone has the opportunity, why not go?" ”

"But...... But...... But I'm worried that I won't be able to play well. ”

"It's not a solo, there are so many performers to accompany you, and there is Raphael director to conduct, what are you afraid of?"

It's a rare opportunity to play on Broadway.

The little girl was silent for a moment, and said nervously, "I'm a little nervous, worried that something will go wrong." ”

"Don't be nervous, just play at home."

Li Weimin took her little hand and smiled proudly: "In the next two months, we will tour with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra." The United States went to Europe after acting, and Europe went to Australia after acting. While performing, he attracted investment, did not sign tens of millions of dollars in projects, and resolutely did not go home. ”

"We only attract investment, don't raise money, don't sell bonds?"

"There is a division of labor, and from now on, volunteers from the Catholic Welfare Society of America, the American Catholic War Relief Association, the American Catholic Charities Association, the American Cooperative Society, the International Red Cross, the Vietnam Charity Federation, the Vietnam Youth Association and the Chinese Youth Association are responsible for raising funds and selling bonds. Wherever the film is placed, they put the booths, donation boxes and bond sales points, and they are facing ordinary people.

Our next work is to cooperate with the diplomatic corps and the industrial investment company to deal with the high-ranking government officials and wealthy people, watching movies and listening to the sound how can there be a good effect of live performance, so every time we go to a city, we invite dignitaries and celebrities, after listening to the concert, give each of them a record, and then invite them to participate in the investment promotion meeting of the industrial investment company, cast the net wider, there will always be fish. ”
