Chapter 196: Plagiarism is shameful but useful
Three days later, Han Yangqiu put several tapes on Song Mu's desk.
"Listen." He said.
Song Mu put the tape into a tape recorder, pressed the play button and listened. The music was re-written by Han Yangqiu, and the lyrics were also re-changed by him according to the plot.
Although I can hear the shadow of the original song, it is also very different from the original.
It didn't take long to listen to the four songs and a few short paragraphs, and Song Mu was basically satisfied: "It's generally fine, but can the arrangement of these songs be a little more Chinese?" ”
"Hua Guofeng?" Han Yangqiu was a little interested in this new word proposed by Song Mu.
"It's to add some elements of our country," Song Mu thought for a while, and described it in her own way: "For example, traditional musical instruments, ancient allusions, etc., but the essence is still modern music, do you understand?" “
"It's like the kind of music you asked Lu Kangping to make?" Han Yangqiu asked.
"Uh, it's similar, the demo he brought yesterday is still too Chinese," Song Mu explained to Han Yangqiu: "What I want is the opposite, although it is a fusion of classical music and Western music, but the essence of music is still Western music, and our Chinese classical style is just an embellishment; The lyrics are as concise and concise as possible, making it feel like poetry. Belch...... I don't understand, I'll sing it to you. ”
Song Mu lightened his voice, and immediately sang in a not very high voice:
"A pot of wandering wandering is difficult to enter the throat of the world
After you leave, the wine is warm, and the memories are thin
How to steal the time when the water flows eastward
The flowers ripen once they bloom, but I miss them
Who is playing a song with the pipa?
The years peeled off on the wall to see when I was a child
I still remember that we were all very young
And now the sound of the piano is faint, I am waiting, you haven't heard it......"
"Well, the lyrics are almost like this," as soon as he finished speaking, Song Mu explained again: "The tune can be in the style of rhythm and blues, the piano and harp are the main instruments, the prelude, interlude, and outro can be mainly the erhu, and during the period, traditional Chinese instruments such as pipa, dulcimer, and guzheng are arranged, do you understand?" ”
Han Yangqiu didn't answer, he was completely subdued by Song Mu at this moment.
This is a song he has never heard before, the lyrics are half-literary, but it can make people understand the meaning of it, and at the same time, have an illusion of traveling through time and space.
The tune sounds a little strange at first, it feels like an antique minor, but it's not so regular. After Song Mu's explanation, after thinking about it carefully, he felt very harmonious.
"Why not use this song?" Han Yangqiu asked.
"Where?" Song Mu was stunned for a moment, and then even thought about his question: "You mean to use it in "Mulan"? This song doesn't fit in. But I think this style is more suitable, so I want you to change these songs to be similar. What do you think? ”
"Yes." Han Yangqiu bowed his head and said: "Can you sing this song in its entirety just now?" I...... I want to make a sample. ”
"Proofing? Yes. Song Mugang readily agreed, and immediately remembered something: "Do you know traditional musical instruments?" ”
Han Yangqiu shook his head.
Song Mu: "......"
You're not going to be a ghost! How did you change them all to Chinese style?
"Come, I'll sing it to you first, and you pick up the score first." Song Mu said......
When Han Yangqiu finished the score, Song Mu said hello to Zhou Hongyun, and took Han Yangqiu directly to his house.
She didn't want to take him to her house, but went back to drive 86 parked in the yard, and roared towards the location of the Haishi Film Orchestra.
When he arrived at the Haishi Film Orchestra, Song Mu inquired all the way to an open office. In the office, Lu Kangping was discussing something with a man who looked to be in his forties and fifties.
The two chatted very attentively, and they didn't notice that Song Mu and Han Yangqiu were standing at the door.
Song Muchong made a silent gesture to Han Yangqiu and quietly listened to the conversation between the two people.
"Xiao Lu, your request is unreasonable," a man in his forties and fifties said: "It's not that I don't do my best, you heard it just now, according to your idea, the effect is even more chaotic, how can this be used as the soundtrack of the movie?" ”
Lu Kangping obviously disagreed with his statement: "Mr. Zhang, I know that you are professional in film scores, but I am not a layman. You are indeed a senior, but this world has changed~"
His words suddenly made the man in his forties and fifties who was called Teacher Zhang unhappy: "Why don't I know that the world has changed?!" I'm going to leave it here today, Western music and folk music are nonsense together! It's also nonsense! If we can really get together, why should our film orchestra split into two groups?! ”
Seeing Teacher Zhang's temper coming up, Lu Kangping was also a little angry: "Why are you messing around?" You are short-sighted, why do you have to die, everyone has to be as short-sighted as you? Don't look at the young age of our team leader, we can't catch up with the eyes of others! Since our team leader said yes, then it will definitely work! ”
"I don't believe it yet!" Teacher Zhang slapped the score in his hand on the table: "You can hang up the phone to your team leader now, and ask her to come and tell me how to integrate Chinese musical instruments with Western musical instruments?" If she can explain that I still don't understand, I'll let you return double the money you gave! You go out and turn left to find the Haishi Chinese Orchestra! ”
"Our team leader is very busy! Just...... I didn't have time to come over! Although Lu Kangping's words were still hard, his heart was somewhat empty.
Just now, he was also in a hurry, and subconsciously lifted Song Mu out to suppress Teacher Zhang, but if he really wanted Song Mu to come over and say, he didn't know the bottom of his heart. Collar. He has seen a lot of stupid instructions under the director's head, and what Song Mu said at the time was to combine music with Chinese and foreign, and it was not necessarily not necessarily that he didn't come up with a pat on his head.
Just when he was struggling with how to fool around next, he heard the voice of the team leader Song Mu suddenly come from the door: "Are you two busy?" ”
Lu Kangping looked at the door and found that it was really his own team leader standing at the door.
Teacher Zhang didn't know Song Mu, and suddenly saw that the two young people he didn't know interjected a little confused, but Song Mu had already stepped in, and took the initiative to reach out and shake Teacher Zhang: "Teacher Zhang, I've been looking up for a long time." ”
"Are you ......?" Teacher Zhang asked with some confusion.
"I'm Brother Lu's team leader, just call me Xiao Song." Song Mu introduced himself with a smile.
Hearing Song Mu's self-introduction, Mr. Zhang remembered what he had just said, and his face couldn't help but blush slightly, but the scene on his lips naturally did not less: "It turned out to be the young and promising Team Leader Song, who has been looking up for a long time." ”
Although Song Mu saw his red old face, she guessed in her heart that he must have thought of what she had just said, but in order not to make the atmosphere embarrassing, she still pretended not to know anything, turned her head to Lu Kangping and asked, "When I came in just now, I heard your tone as if you were arguing with Teacher Zhang about something?" Brother Lu, although you are older than me, I have to say something to you, Teacher Zhang is willing to help us, that Teacher Zhang can afford it, how can you get angry with others? ”
Lu Kangping is not a Mu Ne person, Song Mu's words have obviously set the tone, so he pushed the boat down the river and gave Teacher Zhang a step: "Hey, I didn't really get angry with Teacher Zhang." It's not that time is urgent, and our progress is a little slow, so we have a bit of anger after discussing it...... Teacher Zhang, I'm sorry. ”
Teacher Zhang nodded and said, "Xiao Song, I don't blame Xiao Lu for this, I actually lost my temper just now." You're here, I have something to tell you. It's good that you put forward this idea of combining Chinese and foreign, but I have been working with Xiao Lu for a while, and the effect seems to me...... It's hard to put into words. ”
Song Mu raised his eyebrows and said, "Uh...... How hard to put into words? ”
Teacher Zhang picked up the sheet music that had just fallen on the table: "Everyone should be almost rested, let's go, come with us to listen." ”
Song Mu naturally had no reason to refuse, and several people followed behind Teacher Zhang and came to a concert hall that was not very large.
There were a lot of people gathered in the concert hall, and Song Mu could see the faint atmosphere of these people at a glance. On the left are traditional instruments such as erhu, suona, dulcimer, guzheng, xiao, drum, pipa, etc., while on the right are pianos, violins, accordions, clarinets, double reeds, saxophones and other Western instruments.
Everyone was chatting, but when they saw Mr. Zhang and others pushing the door in, they immediately stopped talking.
Teacher Zhang nodded at Song Mu, went straight to the conductor's platform, set up the score, picked up the baton on the side and said, "Come, everyone prepare, let's do it again." ”
When everyone was ready, Mr. Zhang waved his baton, and the orchestra opposite played with the baton.
After playing three pieces in a row, Teacher Zhang made a relaxed gesture, put down the baton and turned to Song Mu: "What does Xiao Song think?" ”
"Uh......" Song Mu was a little stunned for a while.
What kind of stuff I just heard! Is it so ugly when traditional and Western instruments are mixed together? Why is the erhu so harsh? Why is the violin so noisy? Bangzi's voice is too strange, isn't it?
Song Mu only felt as if there were 10,000 divine beasts, running in line from the prairie in his heart, and he didn't seem to be able to say anything except for the sentence "it......
After holding back for a long time, Song Mu finally squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "It's hard to say a word......"
"Really?" Seeing that Song Mu and his hero saw something similar, Teacher Zhang's face finally showed a normal smile: Xiao Song, it's good for a young man to be young and energetic and want to innovate, but some things are inherently not suitable for weaving together. ”
Lu Kangping was like a deflated ball, at first he saw Song Mu coming and was expecting a reversal, but he didn't expect the result to be like this.
'I really came up with a pat on the head......,' he sighed in his heart.
