Chapter 270: Collective Riot in the Opera World?
The song "Blue and White Porcelain" is quite famous on the earth in the dream, and it is one of the masterpieces of the music king Jay Chou.
This song is pop music, but no matter from the song or from the words, it can reveal a strong Jiangnan tune, fresh and graceful, elegant and meticulous.
The lyricist of this song is Fang Wenshan, and it is reported that at the beginning, what he wanted to create was to use the bronze ware that began to be cast in the Yin Shang period as the main theme, and use the thickness of bronze to symbolize the steadfastness of love.
The millennium mottled patina can be used as a metaphor for the vicissitudes of the world, and at the same time, the incomprehensible inscriptions on the vessels can be used to explain the mystery of the oath.
If the bronze is the main theme, it can be used to excavate many layers, and it can also greatly enrich the spiritual connotation of the song.
But based on the tune of this song is very soft and graceful, which does not match the heavy bronze, Fang Wenshan listened to the song when he was writing, and what was shown in his mind was a hazy and amorous Jiangnan minor tune, so he decided to bronze.
Under his repeated search, he was selected as the "Ru kiln porcelain" that was once very prosperous in the Song Dynasty, and there are only more than 70 pieces of Ru kiln treasures in the world, which can be called the important treasure of the country.
The pure and high-grade Ru kiln has only one color, that is, "azure", without any fancy ornamentation at all, and the shape is simple and elegant.
Although this song is called "Blue and White Porcelain", in fact, the core is about this "Ru kiln porcelain".
It's just that "Ru Kiln Porcelain" is not very suitable as the title of the song, it is not poignant, and it is not lingering, so it was finally changed to the blue and white porcelain that was first fired in the Tang Dynasty and has been stretched for more than 1,000 years, and is the most representative export artwork in the early days.
What Gu Che wants to come up with is also this song.
He knows very well how important this song is in today's Xia country.
Unlike his previous opera-style works, this song does not have a single word of opera, but it makes people feel that they are full of opera.
This song can definitely be regarded as one of the masterpieces of "Xia Guofeng"!
The time left for Gu Che is very tight, he has never tried to sing RAP, nor has he tried to sing RNB style, with his singing voice to challenge this song, he is not sure if he can do it well.
But Gu Che understands better that if he doesn't come up with this song, he will regret it.
Regardless of whether his so-called original singer is good or not, he hopes that this classic song can appear in people's eyes again, can be listened to by everyone, and can be known to everyone-
It turns out that there is such beautiful music, and the original opera-style meteor music can still be played like this!
At this time, the pressure was given to Gu Che.
After Gu Che announced the name of the song, netizens began to speculate.
[The opera-style music, the name is "Blue and White Porcelain", I don't know what opera Gu Che will use to express it? ] 】
[Xie Changming publicly said that when he was singing, he had already given a thirty-second audition audio, how could it be Gu Che's turn to only know a music name? 】
[Maybe it's because I didn't expect it to really be broken, after all, Xie Changming's request is 1 billion box office, and 1 billion box office is quite easy to achieve! ] 】
[Blue and white porcelain has a long history, I don't think Gu Che should create a modern work this time, this should be an ancient work! ] 】
……
Not only netizens are speculating, but even many people in the opera industry are speculating.
Not only do they guess, but they also want to make a big one!
At this moment, all the actors in the opera industry who have something to do with Gu Che or have nothing to do with Gu Che have taken action.
Ten minutes after Gu Che posted his blog, Gu Che himself received a call from his senior brother Luo Mingli.
"You said that someone approached you and asked me what kind of opera I plan to use for the new song, and I am willing to spend money to buy the opera part of the new song?" Gu Che asked suspiciously.
For a moment, he didn't know if this person wanted to come over to deliver money, or if he wanted to come over and make his song semi-custom?
Luo Mingli said: "Yes, I don't understand, I know this friend who sings Sichuan opera, and said that he also came to call me to ask me at the behest of his elders." What he meant was that if you wanted the opera part of the new song to be Sichuan opera, he could give you a sum of money. ”
Gu Che suddenly understood, "They want to expand the influence of Sichuan Opera!" ”
He studied Cantonese opera, and the master and brother were not worried that he would forget Cantonese opera.
His original intention was also to promote Cantonese opera, so there were several opera-style songs before, all of which were narrated with Cantonese opera.
But at the New Year's Day party, he sang Peking Opera.
It is estimated that at that time, some ideas were given to those actors in the opera industry.
Gu Che doesn't necessarily only sing Cantonese opera!
If the conditions are right, Gu Che can also sing Peking Opera, Sichuan Opera, and Huangmei Opera......
After the New Year's Day party, Gu Che also received some invitation notices from the opera industry, hoping that he could create a pop music with their opera.
Let's not mention whether it will be popular or not, as long as he is willing to create it, he will give a signing fee of hundreds of thousands.
The conditions made Gu Che very excited, but he didn't act.
Because of the good-sounding and popular opera-style pop music, there are actually not as many as everyone thinks.
The opera-style music he has announced now can be regarded as a classic song on the earth in his dreams, so its release will have some impact on the industry, and it can easily occupy the hot list.
After all, it's a song that has been verified and is a hit in dreams.
Gu Che asked Luo Mingli to refuse the request and hung up the phone.
His family knows his own affairs, if an actor in the opera industry really comes to the door, and the conditions proposed happen to meet the new song, he doesn't mind accepting this hundreds of thousands.
Don't be in vain!
It wasn't he who forced others to give it, it was someone else who sent the money himself.
But.
The song "Blue and White Porcelain" is a very special opera-style pop music, which does not introduce any opera singing and recitation, and is even full of novelty in the expression of music.
But on the contrary, the lyrics of this song are full of antiquity.
So this song is very special, so special that even if there are no opera elements added to it, it makes people feel like they are listening to a play.
In the dream, once this song was launched, it was not only popular all over the country, but also firmly grasped the market of young people, but also captured the hearts of many middle-aged and elderly people.
Although for the latter, many people just listen to the tune, and the lyrics are still a little unclear.
It's just that what Gu Che didn't expect was that after rejecting the first one, there would be a second, a third, and a fourth......
More and more people in the opera industry have found people close to him, including himself.
The next day, during work hours, Ye Ming's phone kept ringing and never stopped.
As soon as I asked what was going on, I was asking what kind of opera Gu Che's new song would use, and whether it was possible to change the type of opera.
As long as it can be changed, everything is easy to say.
"I'm sorry, Gu Che has already created it, the song is in production, and it won't be changed, but don't worry, if you use the opera you want, Gu Che won't ask you for money!"
Not long after Ye Ming hung up the phone, another phone call came in, and when he asked, he still asked about the type of opera.
Ye Ming had a headache, poured himself a lot of tea, and felt that he had talked too much today, and his cheeks hurt a little.
What's going on?
Actors in the opera industry rioted en masse?
He has been answering the phone all day today, communicating, talking on the phone, and he feels like his throat is going to be dumb.
On the other side, Luo Mingli, Kong Ping and He Huanying also came to the office and repeated the same actions as him: answering the phone, listening to the phone, explaining, and hanging up the phone.
Even the reason for the explanation is Ye Ming's rhetoric, which is exactly the same.
Ye Ming had just rested for a while, and the phone rang again, he ignored it, looked at the other three people who happened to be resting, and asked with great confusion:
"Is there something big going on in the opera industry, why did they all come to Gu Che to insert a song?"
Luo Mingli poured a big sip of water, moistened his throat, shook his head and said: "No, they just want Gu Che's music to use their opera genre, so that it can become popular on the Internet, so that many down-and-out operas may be brought back to life." ”
There are many types of opera, Peking Opera, Sichuan Opera, etc. are all considered a large category, and there are more niche categories of opera, few people know about it, and even fewer people have heard of it, all of which are already in the lost stage.
Even though some species have applied for the protection of intangible cultural heritage, they are still useless.
People also want to make money to live, if they can't satisfy life, who wants to learn opera?
This is true even if you become an inheritor of intangible cultural heritage.
If the intangible cultural heritage does not become popular, it will not make money.
But if it can appear in Gu Che's new song, it will be able to come back to life, or even go to the next level.
Kong Ping said in a deep voice: "So this time, what is in a hurry is not the operas of the major factions, but some very niche operas." ”
Ye Ming thought thoughtfully, "No wonder, since the phone call at noon, the price has been lower than the other, and the voice sounds a little lacking in confidence." ”
Luo Mingli swallowed a melon seed, "Isn't it, it's very difficult to inherit it by yourself, where is the money to come to Gu Che for publicity and promotion?" ”
Kong Ping said: "Even if Gu Che really uses their opera, we must not collect money from them, we are not businessmen, so we don't have to worry so much." ”
Ye Ming nodded: "Don't say that Gu Che uses niche opera, even if Gu Che uses popular opera, I don't plan to let him collect money, there is no need to be so mercenary." ”
Now Gu Che is the top stream, but the entertainment industry is like this, feng shui takes turns, and it is impossible to be popular every year.
A new generation is better than the old, and the one who can stay in the circle in the end will always be the one with good quality works.
Gu Che has a good prospect now, and there is no need to damage his life for a little money.
In the new song, there is also a charge for an opera interlude, how ugly is it to spread it?
He Huanying suddenly said: "Having said so much, do you know what opera Gu Che's new song will use?" ”
Others: ......
Coincidentally, they really don't know!
I don't know what the point of receiving so many calls today is, but it's not okay if you don't answer it!
Ye Ming originally wanted to call Gu Che to ask, but he was afraid that after he knew, he would accidentally say it when he explained to others, so he simply didn't ask.
The others listened and decisively stopped asking.
I don't know what's best, I don't know and I don't want to think about it.
Gu Che is working with Zhou Fan to record nervously.
Zhou Fanxian was very excited, especially after seeing the lyrics of this song, he was even more excited.
"This is one of the most beautiful lyrics I've ever seen, are you going to sing an ancient song?"
Gu Che muttered: "It's not very ancient, but it's definitely not a modern song, it can be seen as a story of a man liking a woman, a man silently waiting for a woman for a long time, thousands of years, and finally waiting for it." ”
Compared to music, Gu Che is not a singer who attaches importance to MVs.
So most of the MVs in his songs are very simple.
Many netizens urged Gu Che to give a good song a good MV, but Gu Che listened to it, but most of them were unworthy.
He thought that if he could sing the live version of the song in the future, he could use the live version of the performance as a MV.
MV script design or something, he really doesn't have time to write it.
"Blue and White Porcelain" is not as difficult to sing as Gu Che imagined, but it will definitely not be easy to sing, at least it will not be recorded in a day.
Because he has been in a good state recently, Gu Che has nothing to be disturbed, so he didn't stay up all night and worked so hard, he got off work at eight or nine o'clock in the evening, and told Zhou Fan to record the next day.
Zhou Fanxian silently breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and quickly packed up and left the recording studio.
This is the norm for singers to record songs!
There are very few singers who can record a song in one go.
More singers spend days recording a song.
In the past, Gu Che was too liver-free, and often a song was recorded after staying up all night, and Zhou Fanxian had to fight along.
"This star really wants to retire"
But now that he is older, well, although he is a year older, Zhou Fanxian will also feel a little powerless.
Gu Che has become a normal singer, which is also a good thing for him.
When Gu Che returned to the apartment, he received a call from his master.
When I asked, I realized that the master also came with someone else's entrustment!
Senior brother and sister, he may still want to sell Guanzi so he doesn't reveal it, but he can't be angry in front of the master, so he immediately recruits:
"Master, it's not that I don't want to give my seniors a face, but my song doesn't have a narration at all."
Ding Taiqi was silent for a moment, as if thoughtful.
The master is not a man of many words, and does not ask why he is talking about the style of opera but does not have any elements of opera, but asks: "Is there any room for change in the opera-style pop music you will create in the future?" ”
Gu Che said very simply: "No, the creation is completed, and I will not change it." ”
He bluntly dismissed the ideas of those predecessors, music is not something you can just change the lyrics and change a piece of music.
It needs to be changed according to the integrity of the whole music and the meaning you want to express.
"If those seniors want my music to appear in a specific opera interlude, it is custom music, they can send an email to the studio to invite, but I am not sure if I want to accept it, inspiration is a very special thing, not can be produced in batches."
Ding Taiqi said "um" and hung up.
Gu Che shrugged his shoulders, the master deserved to be a master, as always, serious, few words, and resolute.
And there are many big old connections!
You must know the characters he just heard from his master, he is a name that can only be seen in textbooks!
