Chapter 53: Journey to the West, Erlang God (Seeking Follow-up)
Xu Mu listened to the voice in his head, and there were some doubts in his heart.
"Genius idiot dreams?"
He wasn't very familiar with the song.
And at this time, the relevant information of this song in Xu Mu's mind gradually appeared: Xu Guan's masterpiece music, and Xue Zhixiong wrote the lyrics together, and Xu Guanjie sang it.
At the same time, the song sounded in my head: "Everyone is looking for dreams, there is no distinction between West and East in dreams, a moment of spring breeze is proud, and unknown scenery is hazy ......"
Xu Mu immediately interrupted the voice in his head: "Cantonese songs? ”
In this world, there are Cantonese songs, but they are not as popular as on the earth.
On the earth, because of the Xiangjiang, Cantonese songs occupy a huge market.
Here, the market for Cantonese songs is relatively small, but there are still people singing them.
First of all, from the point of view of speech, Cantonese has nine tones and six tones, and if you follow the Cantonese pronunciation to fill in the words, it will make the song catchy.
Secondly, from the perspective of the history of China, as long as the history of China before the Ming Dynasty remains unchanged on this earth, Cantonese will definitely exist and will be valued.
Because Cantonese retains a large number of elements of Middle Chinese, its initials, finals, and tones are highly consistent with the standard ancient Chinese rhyme book "Guangyun".
Historically, the stereotype of Cantonese has a huge relationship with the continuous migration of Central Plains people to Lingnan from the Han Dynasty to the Tang and Song dynasties.
Some people even proposed: "For more than 1,000 years, people from the Central Plains have migrated to Guangzhou, and today's Guangyin is the sound of the Central Plains in the Sui and Tang dynasties." ”
On the earth's "Classics Forever", many poems of the ancients were also sung by Cantonese singers.
Therefore, it is very logical and reasonable that there are Cantonese and Cantonese songs in this world.
However, Xu Mu was entangled in something else.
The popularity of Cantonese songs in this world is less than one-third of that on the earth, who is this for?
"Forget it, listen to the song first."
The voice in my head continued to sound: "Life is like a dream, the dream is full of good fortune and evil, the search for happiness is unbearable, and the suffering and happiness are ...... together"
Xu Mu listened to the lyrics in his mind, and actually felt that his heart gradually calmed down.
This song is very old.
But it makes people listen to it.
"The drunkard woke up, whether he crossed the phoenix and rode the dragon......"
Xu Mu unconsciously finished listening to the song, and then listened to it again.
In the end, he decided with his not strong literary and artistic appreciation ability: "This song is very awesome." ”
In fact, the lyrics of many old songs are full of speculation.
The song discusses human life, pain and happiness, dreams and reality to some extent.
Listening to it, Xu Mu remembered someone.
Tao Yiran!
He is from Cantonese Province and he can sing Cantonese songs.
"No, Lao Tao's style is not like this."
Because Tao Yiran danced, even if he wasn't allowed to act, the songs arranged by Tianxing for him were also the kind of singing and dancing, dynamic.
From that style of music to the still water of "Genius Idiot Dream", this has changed too much.
But......
Xu Mu groaned again: "A singing and dancing singer, a fool in the eyes of others, if you calm down and sing Cantonese songs, is it possible to open up the market instead?" ”
The drunkard woke up, did he cross the phoenix and ride the dragon?
Xu Mu's eyes lit up.
There's a head!
But this song can't be given now, and now these brothers are still under the banner of Tianxing.
Doing so is tantamount to making a wedding dress for someone else.
"Wait for the right opportunity."
Xu Mu listened to the song in his mind again.
This song may not be suitable for the charts, but the value of some songs may not need to be proved by the charts.
Just as Xu Mu was listening to the song, his phone rang again.
Xu Mu looked at the time, it was already more than eleven o'clock in the evening, who is this.
A call prompt: Jiang Hongye.
Xu Mu was stunned for a moment, and then picked up the phone: "Hey, Teacher Jiang, haven't slept yet?" ”
Jiang Hongye: "What do you sleep, have you practiced boxing during this time?" ”
Xu Mu and Jiang Hongye's way of getting along is different from other predecessors, he is more direct: "Practicing boxing at night? ”
Jiang Hongye: "Okay, okay, don't talk nonsense with you, there is business." ”
Xu Mu smiled: "You say." ”
Jiang Hongye also smiled: "Why did I look at the Internet and say that you went to play a neuropath?" Lin Qiushi recommended it? ”
Xu Mu: "Uh-huh. ”
Jiang Hongye on the other side of the phone was on the crew, wearing makeup and long hair at this time.
He scratched his scalp, which was a little itchy because of the hood: "I also have a horn, can I come?" ”
In the last "Acting Training Class", Jiang Hongye said what Xu Mu listened to, which made Jiang Hongye feel: "I really deserve to die".
However, Jiang Hongye was too busy to care about recommending roles to Xu Mu or anything.
As soon as he went online today, he saw the news that Xu Mu participated in the movie "You Are a Psychopath", and when he saw the lineup, he made a phone call again, and immediately knew that this role was recommended by Lin Qiushi.
Lin Qiushi, a good man.
Jiang Hongye thought about it, at that time, he and Lin Qiushi drank together, and both of them drunkenly praised Mu as a good boy, but turned his head and Lin Qiushi recommended a role.
Am I not a mouthful of words?
Jiang Hongye, this wave was rolled up by Lin Qiushi.
He is more popular than Lin Qiu, and he has more resources in his hands, so it is too easy to find a role for Xu Mu.
There is one today.
"Class C web drama "Journey to the West", Erlang God, are you coming?"
Xu Mu's expression was stunned: "Erlang God? ”
Jiang Hongye: "I look at your image, it's quite suitable for Erlang God, there are some scenes in this movie, I just want to see your progress during this time." ”
"What is Journey to the West?" Xu Mu asked.
Jiang Hongye: "Send the script to you, read it yourself, if you are interested, come first to set up makeup, try a play, and see if the director agrees." ”
"This scene is quite small, it will be finished in a few days, if you come, bring Dong Fei."
He talks less nonsense.
After Xu Mu thanked him a few words, the two hung up the phone.
In less than half a minute, the script was sent.
"Journey to the West......"
Xu Mu opened the script.
Then understand why this web series is called "Journey to the West".
In this world, Jingzhou TV has also filmed Journey to the West, and it is extremely classic.
This led to almost all subsequent remakes being scolded for being bloody.
Later, the screenwriters found a loophole, that is, Jingzhou TV's Journey to the West did not shoot all the chapters of the original work, and there was still a lot of content left.
We can't remake what you've filmed, and if I shoot what you haven't filmed, won't it's over?
Therefore, over the years, there have been many TV series such as "Journey to the West Continuation" and "Journey to the West".
Investors with a lot of money, increase investment, apply for a Class B rating, and then go to the star.
If you have less money, then reduce your investment and make it into an online drama.
And the service can also be more diverse, mainly for young people.
Jiang Hongye's recommendation of "Journey to the West" is a type.
Xu Mu took a look, the script of this little Journey to the West almost follows the original book, but there is no mess.
And if you follow the original book, Erlang God appears twice.
Once Sun Wukong made trouble in the Heavenly Palace, he came out to release the dog.
The second time was the 62nd time, when I went to the sacrificial country to fight the nine-headed worm, and Erlang God came out to help.
That scene is quite rare.
Xu Mu calculated the time, he only started the film exam in mid-September, and there was still some time.
This role, he really wants to play.
Guys, who doesn't want to shoot some flying scenes.
At this moment, Jiang Hongye sent another message: "There is another thing, I have to tell you, this drama is invested and filmed by the Holy Church, you may have to discuss it with the company." ”
The Church is a first-class entertainment company in the entertainment industry that is almost as famous as Tianxing, and Jiang Hongye is an artist under the Church, but it is said that he has a little stake now.
The Church is good at filming mythological dramas and martial arts dramas.
This can also be seen in the name.
"Okay."
Xu Mu immediately called Xie Chen: "Brother Chen, I have something to tell you......"
"What? Templars? Xie Chen was drunk over there, and he immediately sobered up.
"The Templar is a big company! You wait for me to talk to the company tomorrow. ”
Xie Chen didn't come back until two o'clock that night, and at eight o'clock in the morning, he hurriedly knocked on Xu Mu's door and asked what was going on.
Xu Mu talked about the cause and effect, and showed him the script by the way.
"I'll contact the company." Xie Chen took his mobile phone and dialed Li Xiaofei's number.
Li Xiaofei had just gone to work, and when he heard what Xie Chen said, he also came to his senses: "Holy Hall? Are you so well connected? ”
Xie Chen denied again and again: "No, no, no, this is not my connection, this is what Xu Mu made by participating in the "Acting Training Class". ”
Li Xiaofei: "That's also a connection." ”
Then she gave the company's opinion: she wanted Xu Mu to act in this play.
Qiming Entertainment has just started, and it is inexplicably at odds with Tianxing.
At this time, it would be beneficial if the company could contact the Templar more.
Moreover, the Templar's reputation has always been good.
"You wait directly in Rongcheng, I'll let Dong Fei go over." Li Xiaofei gave the order at that time.
"Didn't Dong Fei talk about the cooperation of another drama before?" Xu Mu asked.
Li Xiaofei smiled happily: "He trained for a few days and was selected by the director, and now he is waiting for other roles to be decided and the crew's planning, how can it take a month." ”
The artists under his command took off one by one, and Li Xiaofei was quite happy.
At four o'clock in the afternoon of this day, Xu Mu saw Dong Fei and Zhang Yue rushing over at the hotel.
Both agents came, which shows how seriously the company takes this matter.
"Brother Mu!" Dong Fei pounced as soon as he saw Xu Mu.
"Brother Mu, this time, our two brothers are finally fighting side by side again!"
"This is a mythological drama, we have to cross the Three Realms."
Xu Mu was silent for a while: "I haven't decided yet, do you want the two of us." ”
"That's not right, Brother Mu." Dong Fei suddenly woke up.
"You play Erlang God, who do I play?"
Xu Mu picked up his mobile phone: "You ask Teacher Jiang." ”
The phone was connected, and Dong Fei immediately said: "Teacher Jiang, I'm Dong Fei, I'm gathered with Brother Mu, and I'm going to go to your audition, but I have a question, Brother Mu plays Erlang God, who do I play?" ”
Jiang Hongye smiled and said, "If you two come together, it must be a roaring dog." ”
Dong Fei: "Huh? ”
Jiang Hongye smiled directly: "Teasing you, you are not Xu Mu, you have passed the film exam, you can have more scenes, nine-headed insects, Meishan brothers, you can give it a try." ”
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Jiang." Dong Fei immediately smiled.
Xu Mu: "......"
Dong Fei raised his head and looked at Xu Mu's face with a black line.
"Brother Mu, what's wrong with you?"
Xu Mu smiled, ready to tease him: "Didn't you say that you are fighting side by side across the Three Realms, I think the Roaring Sky Dog is quite suitable." ”
Dong Fei suddenly lowered his face: "Brother Mu, are you going to speed up, hurry up and pass the film exam." ”
"As long as you pass the film test, when the time comes, our brothers will play a drama in which Erlang God is the protagonist, and I will play the roaring dog for you."
Xu Mu: "......"
It's so special, it's a bully.
What did the film exam say, I have to give it to him!
ps: I know that "Genius Idiot Dream" is old, but according to my overhead worldview and data analysis, there will be Cantonese songs in this world, but the market is not too big at present, so let's open it up first.
In addition, judging from the line of the mental hospital, the speculation of geniuses and madmen, and the experiences of other people in the illiterate group, this song is quite compatible, so please rest assured, I won't mess around.
