Chapter 847: Coming to the Real Thing?

Under a residential building, Gu Bei found Li Chengru, who had been here for a while.

"Teacher Xu is at home?"

"Yes, I contacted it in the morning!"

Li Chengru originally planned to come alone, but he received a call from Gu Bei halfway through the car.

"Over there...... What's going on? ”

"What else can I do, the above must be fear-oriented, this Olympic Games has been preparing for the beginning, and the crickets outside have been calling, and when showing an international image, it can't be too tough."

Li Chengru nodded, and thought deeply of this: "It's no good to be too impulsive, but when the time comes, it will be easy to be truthful, and it seems that we don't have the capacity to tolerate people, what kind of truth is this!" ”

Gu Bei couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "Yes! Sometimes, we just carry too much baggage, but it is not as good as some countries, you can come by temperament, do you know what I met when I came in just now? ”

"The little stick is in the neighborhood outside!"

Gu Bei was stunned for a moment and said, "You also saw it!" ”

Li Chengru pursed his lips: "Not only did you see it, but you still wanted to interview me." ”

"What did you say?"

Li Chengru tilted his head: "I'll let you go." ”

Hehe!

This is something that Li Chengru can do, and it doesn't sound new.

"Stinky and faceless, do things that lack morality, and show off with us Chinese, what a thing!"

"You're not afraid of affecting relations between the two countries? You're a celebrity too. ”

Li Chengru dismissed: "Bullshit celebrity, Li Chengru's name is a person's name, and the relationship between the two countries is a matter of consideration above, I am just an ordinary ordinary person, I don't like it, what's wrong with me scolding me?" ”

Cow break!

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, let's go up!"

Xu Jingqing's family lives in an old community, and there is no elevator, so the two of them climbed to the 5th floor, tired and panting.

"It's old, it's useless!"

Li Chengru stood at the door of Xu's house, bending down and beating his legs.

"You said that when we climbed Huangshan on a snowy day, we didn't feel so tired!"

How fresh!

At that time, Li Chengru was twenty years old, and Gu Bei was less than twenty, and it was the time to be able to toss, let alone climb the Yellow Mountain, and climb the Himalayas.

"People have to obey the old!"

Gu Bei said with a smile, stepped forward and knocked on the door of the Xu family.

After a while, I heard footsteps, and the door opened.

Teacher Xu Jingqing stood at the door, looking at Gu Bei, a little puzzled at first, and then smiled: "Xiao Gu, you are here too!" Please come in, please come in! ”

The two of them were welcomed in, there was no one else at home, but they were very clean, and the floor was spotless, and it could be seen that Mr. Xu was a very particular person about life.

"Teacher Xu, don't be busy!"

As soon as the two of them sat down, they saw Teacher Xu Jingqing coming in and out, pouring tea for a while and taking fruit for a while.

Xu Jingqing brought the ashtray and sat down.

"Xiao Li called me just now, and I was still wondering, why did you have time to come to me today?"

When Gu Bei heard this, he glanced at Li Chengru, and saw that he shook his head gently, obviously he hadn't told Teacher Xu about the matter yet.

"Teacher Xu, that's the case."

Then Gu Bei told Xu Jingqing about his plan as it was.

It can be clearly felt that after learning that Gu Bei was going to hold a concert with the theme of Journey to the West, Mr. Xu's eyes were obviously excited.

"Xiao Gu, you...... Is this all serious? ”

Gu Bei nodded hurriedly: "Of course it's true, the two of us can't come all the way over, just to have fun with you!" ”

"Yes no, yes no!"

Xu Jingqing kept rubbing her hands, obviously feeling extremely excited at the moment.

He had been thinking about this for a long time.

At the beginning, it took Ms. Xu Jingqing four years to take over all the arrangement tasks, including 14 complete songs and 33 pieces of music.

It is precisely because of these classic pieces of Mr. Xu Jingqing that the already classic has reached a new height.

It is no exaggeration to say that Mr. Xu Jingqing has done his best, but he has not been able to enjoy the dividends brought to him.

Jiang Dawei became popular by success, and the appearance fee soared to more than 200,000 in the 90s.

The four Tang monks and apprentices became popular all over the country overnight, Zhang Jinlai relied on Sun Wukong to become popular all his life, and the two Tang Seng actors, Chi Chongrui and Xu Shaohua, one married the richest woman, and the other became the vice chairman of the Shandong Dramatists Association.

Director Yang Jie has become a famous director in the country, gaining fame and fortune.

But Xu Jingqing is unknown and unknown.

Even these people, because people's awareness of copyright protection is extremely indifferent, these classic pieces of music created by Mr. Xu Jingqing did not receive decent copyright fees.

For a period of time, there was a wave of ringtone fever across the country, and the one created by Mr. Xu Jingqing has become the ringtone of many people's phones.

It is rumored that dozens of companies relied on such a ringtone to earn tens of millions of yuan, but because no one mentioned copyright, Mr. Xu Jingqing defended his rights everywhere, but only got 8,000 yuan of copyright fees.

One of the companies paid only two seven cents.

In this regard, Mr. Xu could only smile bitterly and laugh at himself: It's better not to want it, and to get it will have to pay for the road.

In addition, due to his upright personality, Mr. Xu Jingqing's popularity in the unit is not good, especially in the eyes of the leader, he is an ignorant person.

This also led to his retirement in 2002, when he barely became a first-class composer, so much so that he always laughed at himself as a second-rate composer.

But this does not mean that Teacher Xu Jingqing really looks down on fame and fortune.

Especially watching the awards again and again, the singer Jiang Dawei and the lyricist Yan Su stood on the podium again and again, but they never even received a notice to accept the award.

In this regard, Xu Jingqing was also angry, as the composer of this song, isn't he worthy?

So he took the initiative to find the organizer of the award ceremony and asked the other party, he is the composer of this song, why is there no trophy for him?

Although the organizer agreed to Xu Jingqing's request, he couldn't stand in the spotlight and enjoy the applause like everyone else, because his trophy was handed to him by the master of the communication room.

After retiring, Xu Jingqing had a new dream, he wanted to hold a concert with the theme of Journey to the West.

After having an idea, Teacher Xu Jingqing began to solicit sponsorship everywhere, but the result was not ideal.

Once, Mr. Xu Jingqing found an investor to discuss the concert, during which the investor was happy and promised to pay money to help him realize his dream.

Teacher Xu was naturally overjoyed after hearing this, and quickly spent more than 20 yuan out of his own pocket to redo all the music, and also incorporated some new elements and new ideas into it.

But when Xu Jingqing confidently invited the investor to the recording studio, the investor fell asleep because he drank and listened, and the matter naturally ended.

But Xu Jingqing was unwilling, he wanted to work hard for his concert dream.

Unexpectedly, Gu Bei would find him at this time.

Gu Bei naturally won't be as unreliable as that person at the beginning, since he said it, he will definitely do it.

Xu Jingqing briefly inquired about Gu Bei's thoughts, and when he learned that this concert was going to be part of the reunion of the Journey to the West crew, he became even more excited.

Xu Jingqing went to the last party, but the conversation was not enjoyable at that time, and he thought that it would be better if he had another chance to have a big party.

"Xiao Gu, you have a good idea, okay! We, old colleagues and friends, should really find more opportunities to get together! ”

Xu Jingqing said and stood up.

"Listen to this first."

As soon as the words ended, the music sounded.

It's Yungong Xunyin.

When this piece was first made, I don't know how much criticism it received, because the whole piece uses Western instruments, and there is a lack of ethnic elements in it, and many people do not recommend it as the opening song.

Some people even proposed to replace Xu Jingqing and choose another composer.

If it weren't for Director Yang Jie's insistence, there might not be many things to do later.

"Teacher Xu, why do I sound like ......?"

Xu Jingqing smiled: "Don't you think it's a little different?" ”

After listening to Mr. Xu's explanation, Gu Bei and Li Chengru knew that the last time they were fooled, Mr. Xu took out almost all his net worth and redid all the tunes.

"At the time, I thought it was in vain, but I didn't expect it to be useful."

When Gu Bei and Li Chengru heard this, they couldn't help but be in awe, none of them thought that Teacher Xu would pay so much for the music of Journey to the West.

"Xiao Gu, thank you, thank you for giving this bad old man a chance to realize his dream."

If this concert can be held, he feels that he will have no regrets.

"Teacher Xu, don't say that, it should be the national audience to thank you, if it weren't for you, it wouldn't be so classic."

People always pay attention to the front of the stage, and often choose to ignore the behind-the-scenes.

But a film and television work, if there is no joint efforts in front of and behind the scenes, where can it be a classic masterpiece!

The two of them stayed at Teacher Xu Jingqing's house for a long time, and when they said goodbye and left, Gu Bei directly appointed Li Chengru as the main person in charge of this concert in front of Xu Jingqing, and all specific matters will be connected by him and Xu Jingqing.

"You don't care about the rest of the matter?"

When he walked outside the community, Li Chengru still couldn't hold back his complaints.

"For the rest, Mr. Xu is the main thing, you just need to cooperate, and the director of the concert will be handed over to the sea, how much work can you do."

"It doesn't matter how much I do, what about you? Why are you going? Anyway, you started this party, so you can't push everything to me! ”

"Me?"

Gu Bei looked at the mobile phone that was vibrating.

"It's not coming!"
