Chapter 52 People in the rivers and lakes

At the intersection of Liaodong, Andong, Zhenxing, Chunyi Road and Jinshan Street, Jinxiu Huacheng is the first batch of high-end boutique commercial communities in this beautiful border town of Huaguo.

Xu Moer, a ballet girl who is about to enter her third year of high school, is nesting in the mint green floral air conditioner quilt in her princess room at the moment, and she is full of joy and ordered the first issue of "Talent Co., Ltd." for the first time.

She's been in a particularly happy mood lately:

First, I received a private message reply from the personal whispering account of my idol Professor Weng Huaijing, although it was only a simple five words: "Welcome to Emperor Dance!" ”

Subsequently, she also received a submission acceptance notice from the program team of "Talent Co., Ltd.", saying that Professor Weng selected her submission at a glance.

and after going through the follow-up process that was not too complicated, the program team actually paid her a salary of up to 300,000 yuan.

This money, even for an art student like Xu Moer, who has a good family background and has been rich since childhood, can be called the first pot of gold earned in his life.

But it's not because of that she's most happy.

In the letter, the program team made a special point that in order to encourage Xu Moer to continue to chase the light, Professor Weng and Teacher Yan Qing jointly created a song.

"Professor Weng is waiting for me at the Imperial Capital Dance Academy, and Teacher Yan Qing wants to borrow the practice room of the program team to prepare for the exam for me."

Xu Mo'er adjusted her sleeping position to lie on the velvet pillow, and while watching the show, she kicked her legs and cheered: "Eh, Mom, the silver family's happiness is very good." ”

She looked at the screen of her mobile phone leaning on the bed screen stupidly, and outside the screen, Yan Qingzheng distilled the core concept of the light chaser from her own story in a lazy voice, and Professor Weng didn't seem to approve of it.

The next picture was completely unexpected by Xu Mo'er, she complained happily: "I only watched the essence clip, and I thought that the two of them were going to pinch up on the phone, the imperial capital routine was deep, and Mo'er wanted to go back to Tun." ”

After complaining, Xu Mo'er smiled again, and said to herself: "The special effect of "Singing the Radical Method" added to Professor Weng in the later stage is too cute!" ”

She stared at the screen stupidly, Weng Huaijing was playing the electric piano and playing a small chorus from Yan Qing's phone through the air through the air.

"I can follow you / sleepwalking like a shadow chasing the light / I can wait at this intersection / whether you pass by or not / whenever I raise my head for you / I feel free even with tears"

"The sample is very good, it's all written by me, no, I should say... To all the children who have been chasing their dreams since childhood."

Tears rolled in Xu Mo'er's reddened eyes, she reached out to whisper music to download the song, and hesitated to Weng Huaijing, who was sitting on the sofa reading the manuscript.

After reading her story, Professor Weng Huaijing, who watched Qingli, shared her empathetic experience with the camera, Xu Moer choked with tears in her voice:

"I didn't expect to win so many professional honors during my study in New York, so perfect and proud Professor Weng will also have vulnerable times."

The next picture is: Weng Huaijing, who was wearing a practice uniform, was holding on to his familiar dance pole, and took twenty or thirty students to do basic exercises seriously.

Hidden behind the scenes, Shao Qing's long-sleeved dance, led by the needle, and the program team took a lot of beautiful pictures at the Imperial Capital Dance Academy:

Carrying the Lu family's old Pop in court medium-sized handbag, Professor Weng hurriedly passed by a large rain stone of the "Cradle of Dancers" and stepped into the cultural teaching building.

In the trapezoidal classroom of the Imperial Capital Dance Academy, Weng Huaijing held the lesson plan and stood upright in front of the podium.

In the ballet practice room of the Imperial Capital Dance Academy, Weng Huaijing danced with the accompaniment of the "Waltz of the Four Little Swans" specially mentioned by Xu Moer.

Under the starry night, in the empty piano room, Weng Huaijing sat in front of the piano and sang by herself, repeatedly practicing and polishing her interpretation of the song.

In the practice room of "Talent Co., Ltd.", to the accompaniment of Schubert's "Serenade", excerpts from "Dancing Queen" like a girl's spring are performed with dressage steps.

These shots are perfectly mixed in post-production to create the immediate visual sense of a fashion blockbuster.

The next part finally arrived, and there was a joint practice clip of the musicians arguing in the edited version.

Without the deliberate editing taken out of context, the spit between the bassist and the guitarist is more like a relaxing moment between playmates.

Although Yan Qing and Weng Huaijing had little communication, they cooperated with each other quite tacitly.

The show has not released the full version of "Light Chaser", and it has been squeezed out one by one, but each lyric is tightly linked to the core of Xu Moer's contribution, telling the story of a small light chaser.

Suddenly, the lights on the stage of the screen were all lit, and a beam of light slowly lit up, chasing Weng Huaijing and slowly standing in the center of the stage.

Dressed in a pure white, mid-length classical ballet dress embellished with lace and sequins like stars, she stood on the stage with a microphone in her hands, waiting for the performance to begin.

The narration in the later stage made Xu Moer's eyes red again:

A deep bass contemptuously said, "Why do you dream so far away? ”

Weng Huaijing's cold and firm narration: "Because it has been shining in front of my eyes!" ”

"Xu Mo'er, this is the admission letter of the high school attached to Huadu Dance Academy, I can finally swim out of the stream of Anton, to see the outside world, we will see you again, oh, I forgot that the judges and teachers all said that you are talented, hehe."

"Three minutes on the stage, ten years of practice in the room, I never thought that you Anton Pu ordinary dance class could cultivate a contestant like Xu Mo'er who has failed again and again, and the training fee will make a lot of money."

"Xu Mo'er, the girl is very good, and the positioning is quite clear, people volunteered not to choose the pearls of the two dance theaters of Huhai and Huadu, and they just took the imperial capital dance theater in decline, and there is no conflict with you, why bother targeting her?"

"A ballet girl with mediocre talent, how difficult her path to chasing light will be, this is obviously only someone who has the same experience can empathize, why does Professor Weng understand?"

Thinking of hearing a lot of cynicism when she failed repeatedly, a sentence that pierced her heart suddenly popped up in her heart, and Xu Mo'er, who pursed her lips, finally couldn't suppress her emotions and cried bitterly.

…………

Coincidentally, Shi Yufan, a well-known professional music critic in the rap music industry and who has been in Shonan Star City all the year round, also received a notification letter of submission and acceptance from the program team, and the 300,000 Chinese yuan manuscript fee that has been paid in place.

Of course, Shi Yufan's mentality is fundamentally different from Xu Mo'er's side - first of all, Yan Qing did not reply in a private message.

Secondly, the money was only a decent windfall for him.

Shi Fanyu is more curious about the fact that this short sentence written by himself after drinking was selected by Yan Qing as the creative source of his first work, and what kind of rap work will he finally output in the show.

"I don't understand what Yan Qing wants to express in that part of the Verse, maybe he just plans to play a ticket? Wouldn't it be beautiful to receive money and make a name for yourself with a wave of poisonous tongues!"

Out of this consideration, he also chose to watch the show on demand for the first time.

With the ruthless advancement of the progress bar, after Weng Huaijing's plot reached the performance stage, the picture turned and returned to the manuscript sharing meeting again.

When it was Yan Qing's turn to read the manuscript, his voice contained a lot of emotions, and even a few wisps of regret occasionally flowed in his clear eyes.

"It's really a fine play, is it really so sad and regretful for the manuscript written by labor and management after drinking a few catties of horse urine, isn't it like eating, drinking, having fun, and exploring everything."

Shi Yufan rolled his eyes at the screen and gestured with his middle finger.

But when the scene switched to the music workstation behind the stage on the first floor, it was completely unexpected for him, and Yan Qingxiu showed off his rap skills.

Sitting behind the music workstation, Yan Qing explained his understanding of rap and his Beat production ideas to the camera like a few treasures, while skillfully playing the Midi keyboard and typing various instruments and harmonic tracks.

"I sample myself? There is also this kind of sassy operation, it is worthy of Hong Xiuxian, there is really you!"

Shi Yufan rubbed his eyes and looked at the screen in disbelief:

Yan Qing beckoned a little girl from off the camera to temporarily help him record two Cantonese vocals, which were mixed into two short sampling tracks with the harmonies provided by the virtual instrument.

He made a very stylized beat from scratch with other materials and these two short tracks.

Yan Qing did not use the commonly used timpani/snare drum as the "boom-bap" sound in the Beat, but cleverly mixed the distorted trumpet sound, electronic kick drum sound, and Hithat (cymbal rubbing sound) to open and close, with a strong old era martial arts TV series showdown BGM style of a beat.

"It's really a sassy operation one after another, you are carrying Pinru's wardrobe, you can only see how Verse and Flow are doing, people are in the rivers and lakes, how can you not be stabbed."

Shi Yufan is knowledgeable, and after listening to this beat, he is full of curiosity about Yan Qing, who is flying like a pen in the show at this time.

"What kind of lyrics will he fill in, hurry up! Autumn pear paste! The knives are sharpened!"

Director Liu Mingren's editing ideas coincide with his ideas, and the demo and joint practice shots of this part of "Lisao" are much shorter than those of "Light Chaser", almost in a flash.

Soon, Yan Qing also stood on the stage with a hood and a microphone.

The performance begins:

Accompanied by the trumpet lead sound of the big opening and closing in the beat, with a strong BGM style of the old era martial arts TV series showdown, mixed with a glutinous girl voice: "One World One Yim".

Shi Yufan gradually got used to Yan Qing's endless commotion operations, and pouted: "The Beat producer's voice watermark has been made, and the posture is quite rapper." ”

Yan Qing, who was wearing a hood and bowing his head on the stage, leaned over to stare at the camera, he held the microphone upside down with his right hand to jam the first Hithat sound of Beat, and roared in a deep voice with a classic rapper gesture with his left hand:

"They are critical of you

They say you're extreme

They blame the origin of this music

They say you're erosive

Even if no one is rehabilitated

You're still my significant other

babe

Walk for you

Walk three levels for you

Accompany you

Accompany you to the knife mountain"

Yan Qing's rhythmic Flow is full of anger, and the lyrics and Beat are also perfectly in line with the underground rap characteristics that Shi Yufan misses in his manuscript.

Suddenly, Shi Yufan remembered the passionate ones he had been deeply addicted to when he first came into contact with rap, which could only be heard from the whiteboard cassette - underground rap! Rivers and lakes!

For a while, Shi Yufan couldn't help but want to raise his right hand, like Jiang Yu on the screen, and start to go up-down with the flow of Yan Qing's Flow, rhythming up and down.

"This person is old, he is prone to auditory hallucinations, and labor and management really have to be reserved, after all, only when you are a black fan can you get hot!"

Shi Yufan resisted the impulse, forcibly withdrew the hand that had been raised halfway, and nodded with a rather reserved expression to keep up with the rhythm of the beat and beat gently.

A heavily distorted Cantonese female voice hooked into the accompaniment:

"The wind blows strongly/People in the rivers and lakes/See everything"
