Chapter 117: March
In the hearts of Xu Lang, Senior Brother Zhou Yan's talent is naturally beyond doubt.
And Senior Brother Zhou Yan is becoming more and more down-to-earth now.
When they first came to CCTV, they had heard the symphony "Flowing Wind" written by Zhou Yan, and they were shocked by the complexity of the score, the rigor of the conception, and the madness of the tune.
At that time, Xu Lang thought, could they be so good when they were sophomores?
Both longing and fear.
The hope is that they hope that they will be able to do this by the time they reach the second grade, and they are afraid because they know that they probably won't be able to reach this level in the second grade.
By the time they were sophomores, they hadn't written a work of the same level as "Flowing Wind" in a class, and at that time, Senior Brother Zhou Yan had already written a multi-movement symphony in the first semester of the third year.
The current Senior Brother Zhou Yan rarely produces big works, but the output of sketches is much higher than before.
It's like a person who used to write long essays a lot, but now he often writes essays, not even short ones.
Everyone also knows the reason, Senior Brother Zhou Yan often makes soundtracks for movies now, and it is inevitable to write a lot of sketches.
After explaining the homework to the students, Zhou Yan went to find Yu Feng and their old orchestra partners.
Because it was a temporary search, naturally there was no way to find all the people, a total of eleven or twelve people were gathered, Zhou Yan took them for a small meeting, and then took them to his house for dinner in the evening.
They didn't cook their own dinner in the evening, Zhou Yan directly asked a nearby shabu shabu shop to send a few copper pots, and more than a dozen people gathered around a few copper pots and ate a meal of shabu-shabu.
He also decided that in the future, when the orchestra came to the courtyard to rehearse, he would not let Fang Xiu cook for them, and ordered food directly from outside.
Anyway, he has a bulging pocket now, so of course there is no problem for such people to eat, not only is it no problem, but he can also arrange food for them every day.
Eat Sichuan cuisine on Monday, Shandong cuisine on Tuesday, and Hui cuisine on Wednesday...... The eight major cuisines can't be eaten for a week, of course, this can only be thought about, there are a lot of restaurants around them, but it is still difficult to make up the eight major cuisines nearby.
Zhou Yan felt that he had bought the right quadrangle, at least it was good for everyone to come to practice and eat, if he bought an apartment or a bungalow, it would naturally not be so convenient.
After eating, everyone else left, and Yu Feng stayed to chat with Zhou Yan alone for a while.
The two of them are still a little different from others now, Yu Feng has been teaching at the school for a year, and Zhou Yan has also decided to stay in school, and has also taught a lot of classes, so they are both school teachers.
"Senior Brother Yu...... Oh no, I should call you Professor Yu by now, right? Zhou Yan said with a smile.
Yu Feng waved his hand, "It's not completely determined yet, and between us, let's call the title outside, let's call me Senior Brother Yu." ”
Although Yu Feng just graduated last year, he has been unusually promoted to associate professor this year, and he is going through the process recently, and it should not take too long to decide.
Therefore, compared with Zhou Yan and Jia Guoping, Yu Feng's popularity is higher.
Just a year after graduating, he was promoted to associate professor, which is scary just to listen to.
Jia Guoping has no chance to surpass Yu Feng, because Jia Guoping is one year older than Yu Feng.
And compared to Yu Feng, Jia Guoping's education is a little lower, he graduated from a bachelor's degree, and Yu Feng graduated from a graduate school.
Zhou Yan may still have some hope, after all, Zhou Yan is only twenty-two years old this year, and he is still six years away from Yu Feng. And if Zhou Yan has no other special reason or goes to further study, he just teaches honestly in school, let alone six years, even if it is sixteen years, I am afraid he will not be able to mix up an associate professor.
"Senior Brother Yu, I think our group of juniors and sisters are very good, why don't you form a symphony orchestra, and you can take them to perform inside and outside the school in the future." Zhou Yan smiled, didn't make a detour, and went directly to the topic, "I still have a song, and after the graduation concert, we can practice." ”
Yu Feng first raised his eyebrows, and then shook his head, "I'm afraid I'm not going to be able to, my time is running out." ”
Zhou Yan was stunned and said, "Senior brother, what do you say?" How does it sound weird and scary. ”
Yu Feng knew that Zhou Yan had misunderstood, and laughed, "Don't think about it, I mean, I don't have much time at school." ”
"Oh, that's right." Zhou Yan breathed a sigh of relief, Yu Feng's statement was too scary, and then he asked, "Senior brother, where are you going?" ”
"At the beginning of July, I'm going to Italy to conduct the Orchestra Naples at the European Contemporary Music Festival, and after that, I'm going to conduct the Portuguese Symphony Orchestra on a tour of Europe, about two times, and this year I won't have time at school."
Yu Feng smiled and continued, "I don't have time next year, next year I will go to Canada and Germany for academic visits, and in the next few years, I am afraid that I will be running around outside." I'm not doing a visit, I'm conducting an orchestra. ”
After listening to Yu Feng's words, Zhou Yan said with a smile, "Congratulations, Senior Brother Yu." ”
Following Yu Feng's development, he will soon become internationally famous and become an internationally renowned conductor.
At the age of Yu Feng, it is the time when he is full of energy, and he really wants to go to Europe to conduct more orchestras and brush up on copies.
It's just a pity that as soon as Yu Feng left, their orchestra lost a conductor.
Command talents are already scarce, and high-end talents like Yu Feng are even rarer.
In fact, Yu Feng can come to a small broken orchestra like them as a conductor, purely for the sake of his classmates, just listen to what he just said, in the second half of the year he is about to conduct the Naples Orchestra and the Portuguese orchestra, even if it is not a top orchestra, it is also at the first-class level in Europe.
Yu Feng smiled at this time, "Senior brother, don't worry, after I go around Europe for two or three years, I will come back to you as a conductor." During this time, I am very happy, especially the study of your scores, the more I study, the more I can feel what it means to see mountains or mountains, and clouds or clouds. ”
"Senior brother, what you said is too exaggerated." Zhou Yan smiled and said very sincerely, "We will always wait for you in the same place." ”
Although he said so, Zhou Yan knew that when Yu Feng came back from brushing up on the copy in Europe, his identity was completely different, and it was okay to let him make a cameo appearance occasionally, but it was definitely impossible to let him be a resident conductor in the orchestra.
Zhou Yan wants to form an on-campus orchestra, first of all, for himself, and in the future, his songs can be played by an orchestra at any time, or even recorded, in addition, with an orchestra, it will be more convenient for other students in the composition department in the future.
The school originally had an orchestra, but it didn't quite fit Zhou Yan's mind, and it wasn't something that Zhou Yan could use if he wanted to.
Now that he learned that Yu Feng was going abroad, Zhou Yan could only find other commanders.
In fact, there is no need to find a fixed conductor, whoever has time in the back can let whoever comes, although there are few people in the command department, but there are still some people in several grades combined.
The two were chatting when the phone in Zhou Yan's room rang.
"Senior Brother Yu, I'll answer the phone first."
"You take it, it's not too early, I'll go back first." Yu Feng smiled and waved his hand at Zhou Yan again, "Don't send it." ”
Zhou Yan was not polite and let Yu Feng go by himself.
After Yu Feng walked out, Zhou Yan picked up the phone.
The call was made by Zhang You'an.
"Zhou Yan, do you have time this Friday afternoon?"
"What's the matter?" Zhou Yan asked.
"I've contacted Li Yiding, and if you have time on Friday afternoon, we'll go see her together." Zhang Youan said.
Zhou Yan counted the days, today is Tuesday, and there are only two days in between Friday.
The tunes he wrote for "Three Kingdoms" have not yet been recorded, and the time must be a bit rushed.
But after thinking about it, he still said, "No problem, what time is Friday afternoon?" ”
"I'll tell you the details when I confirm it on Thursday."
"Okay."
After hanging up Zhang Youan's phone, Zhou Yan took out the scores he had written before and sorted them out.
Since the time was relatively tight, Zhou Yan decided to record a little less.
In the past half a month, although the next few days are more casual, he has written a lot of tunes in the first few days.
After reading the script at that time, the first song that Zhou Yan thought of was the song "Seven Swords Battle Song" written by Kenji Kawai for the movie "Seven Swords".
This piece is very rhythmic and magnificent, which is very suitable for the war scenes.
In addition, Zhou Yan wrote some tunes by himself, some of which were created by himself, and some of which were adapted from part of the music in the neon game "Three Kingdoms".
This time, Zhou Yan is going to record three tunes, in addition to "Seven Swords Battle Song", the other two, one is adapted from "Sprout" in "Three Kingdoms 10", and the other is "Vertical Horse" written by Zhou Yan himself.
"Horses" is placed before the war, "Seven Swords Battle Song" is placed in the war, and "Sprout" is placed after the war, which happens to be a complete war.
"Vertical Horse" and "Sprout" are relatively short, and Zhou Yan is only going to record a version of less than 30 seconds, so it is relatively easy to record.
The key is "Seven Swords Battle Song", which is not only long, but also in order to reflect the intensity of this song, although it is only a sample song, Zhou Yan will also add more orchestrations.
With more instruments, more musicians are needed, and it will naturally be more troublesome to record.
So in the remaining two days, Zhou Yan summoned Yu Ran and them again, while urgently rehearsing "Seven Swords Battle Song", and then recorded "Vertical Horse" and "Sprout".
When recording "Sprout", Zhou Yan added some synthetic sound effects, coupled with flute and violin, and it took less than an hour to record a song.
And when recording "Horses", it was a little more troublesome.
Although the song is simple, Zhou Yan still wants to record the song more abundantly.
In addition to flutes, violins, and drums, Zhou Yan also added the sound of horses' hooves.
He first sampled the sound of horses' hooves into the synthesizer, and then used the synthesizer to orchestrate the rhythm of the horses' hooves, so that the rhythm of "Vertical Horse" and "Seven Swords Battle Song" could be connected together.
It was when the sound of the horse's hooves in "Riding the Horse" became stronger and stronger, and finally disappeared, and then the murderous "Seven Swords Battle Song" was connected.
……
On Friday afternoon, Zhou Yan and Zhang Youan made an appointment to meet at three o'clock under the production center building, and he arrived downstairs ten minutes early.
After waiting for about five or six minutes, he suddenly heard someone calling him.
"Director Zhou?"
Zhou Yan turned his head and saw that it was a young man who called him, it was Xu Tonglu of Yanjing TV, who was interviewed by Xu Tonglu when "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly" was held in Yanjing Studio.
Originally, Xu Tonglu only saw Zhou Yan's side, and he was a little afraid to confirm it, but when Zhou Yan turned around and saw his face, Xu Tonglu said in surprise, "It's really you, Director Zhou." ”
Zhou Yan smiled, also a little surprised, "Reporter Xu, why are you here?" ”
Xu Tonglu didn't expect Zhou Yan to remember his surname Xu, and he was quite happy in his heart, "I'll come here to do something, Director Zhou, what's the matter with you?" ”
"I'm here to find Mr. Li Yiding." Zhou Yan said.
Hearing that Zhou Yan was looking for Li Yiding, Xu Tonglu immediately understood, "Director Zhou, you are here for the soundtrack of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", right?" ”
Then Xu Tonglu's professional skills were automatically launched, and he asked continuously.
"Director Zhou, did you take over the soundtrack of "Three Kingdoms"?"
"I did hear Director Wang say last time that their crew is looking for a soundtrack, are you sure it's you now?"
"The soundtrack of "Three Kingdoms" is definitely not done by one person, is it done by you and Sister Li, or is there someone else together?"
Zhou Yan smiled, Xu Tonglu seemed to know more about the situation in the production center.
First of all, Li Yiding's fame is not big, but Xu Tonglu knew it as soon as he heard it, and in addition, listening to Xu Tonglu's tone, he was quite familiar with Li Yiding and Wang Fulin, so he should often run here.
But this is also normal, Xu Tonglu should be in charge of the news of film and television dramas on Yanjing TV, and naturally has more dealings with the TV production center.
Regarding Xu Tonglu's questions, Zhou Yan just smiled, "It's not decided yet." ”
Xu Tonglu nodded, didn't ask again, but said very enthusiastically, "Director Zhou, you don't know where Sister Li's office is, I'll take you there." ”
"I'm waiting for someone."
As soon as Zhou Yan's words fell, he saw Zhang Youan getting down from a car.
"The person I'm waiting for is here."
Seeing that Zhou Yan and the others were coming, Xu Tonglu said with a smile, "Then Director Zhou, I'll go in first, if you are still here after the matter is over, I will go to you." ”
"Okay." Zhou Yan smiled and nodded.
……
Li Yiding doesn't have an independent office, so he sits in a big office with everyone else.
However, although the office is large, there are not many people inside, and when Zhou Yan and the others arrived, there were only five or six people in the entire large office, and the office environment was very quiet.
Zhang Youan took Zhou Yan and walked straight to an office area in the back.
"Teacher Li, we're here." Zhang Youan whispered.
Because the office is so quiet, people will unconsciously lower their volume.
Li Yiding was originally immersed in writing, but when he heard the voice, he looked up, saw that it was Zhang Youan, first smiled, and then looked at Zhou Yan, "This is Zhou Yan, right?" ”
"Hello, Mr. Li." Zhou Yan greeted with a smile.
"Hello, hello."
Li Yiding put the documents on the table into the drawer, then got up and said, "It's not convenient to talk in the office, I'll take you to the conference room." ”
"Okay." Zhou Yan and Zhang Youan nodded.
Li Yiding is in his forties, wears a pair of glasses, dresses very plainly, and exudes an intellectual beauty all over his body.
She speaks softly, but she does things very simply.
From the time Zhou Yan and the others saw her to the time the three of them entered the conference room, the whole process took more than a minute.
After entering the conference room, Li Yiding said, "I'm really sorry, this time is too busy, let's not waste time, let's get down to business." Director Wang meant that the members of the soundtrack group would be given before October, and what he meant was that he would find two or more soundtrack artists. I don't agree on the same, I think it's enough to find another one, and it should be settled as soon as possible, preferably by July. ”
Zhou Yan nodded, "I understand your consideration, the more the soundtrack is divided, the more difficult it is to unify the style." ”
"I do think so, if there are only two people, there are differences in style, everyone can consult with each other and accommodate each other, but it is difficult to get too many people." Li Yiding nodded, and said, "Zhou Yan, I have heard your soundtrack in "The Forbidden City: Memory", although several songs such as "Memories of the Forbidden City" are not exactly the same style as the TV series "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", but the route is actually similar, and the song "Awakening" you wrote for "Sanmao in the Army" is also very exciting, you can control both styles, the soundtrack of "Three Kingdoms" should also be possible, I don't know what you think of the soundtrack of this TV series? ”
Zhou Yan originally wanted to give Li Yiding a reading comprehension with emotion, but after seeing Li Yiding's style, he dispelled this idea, no matter how much he said to people like Li Yiding, it was better to show her the real guy.
He took out a cassette tape directly from his bag and handed it to Li Yiding, "During this time, I also pondered the script for a lot of time, and wrote three tunes, all of which were recorded in it." ”
Li Yiding was a little surprised, she didn't expect Zhou Yan to be more direct than her, and what surprised her even more was that Zhou Yan had already written three tunes.
From Zhang Youan came to them to talk about this matter, it has only been ten days until now, and it seems that Zhou Yan's composition speed is also okay.
Li Yiding attaches great importance to the speed of composition, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" has too many episodes, and naturally needs a lot of soundtracks, if the composition speed can't keep up, it will be difficult to complete the task.
Some time ago, Li Yiding made a rough estimate by himself, large and small, they have to write at least one hundred and fifty soundtracks for "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and maybe even two hundred.
Of course, while the numbers are scary, a lot of the soundtracks in the middle are relatively simple, and you only need to make a few small changes to the other soundtracks.
But even so, the workload is still relatively large, and if the speed of composing is not good, it is very difficult.
"Okay, you sit down for a while, I'll go next door and get the cassette recorder."
After speaking, Li Yiding left the conference room and went back two or three minutes later.
The tape has been put into the cassette recorder in advance, and it will be plugged in and played directly after it comes.
The first song is "Horses", which is only about 20 seconds in total.
After listening to it, Li Yiding also nodded, the first half of this piece uses flutes and violins, and the second half adds drums and horses' hooves, and the sound of horses' hooves is getting more and more urgent, giving people a feeling that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings.
When you hear this song, you can feel that a battle is about to take place. So there is no doubt that this piece is for the pre-battle period.
The second song is "Sprout", because these two pieces are relatively short, so Zhou Yan recorded these two first.
This piece is a little longer than "Horses", but it is only thirty seconds.
Compared with the previous song "Vertical Horse", the mood of this song is slow downward, and a trumpet is added to it, a little more sad and lonely, Li Yiding did not think of the picture of cleaning up the battlefield after the war, but thought of the army resting at dawn or the scene of Liu Bei sending Xu Shu to see each other.
After listening to the two songs, Li Yiding glanced at Zhou Yan and nodded secretly.
Although these two pieces are very short, it shows Zhou Yan's level, of course, she is not surprised, after all, there are those tunes in "The Forbidden City: Memory" in front of Zhuyu, these two songs are nothing.
I haven't heard the third song yet, but Li Yiding has already given Zhou Yan a "eighty points" in his heart, and listed him as a key consideration.
They have considered other candidates before, but they haven't scored 80 yet.
Pressing the play button again, Li Yiding began to listen to the third tune.
Li Yiding originally thought that the third song should be similar to the previous two, both of which are twenty or thirty seconds of short tunes, after all, the time is not long, and the soundtrack of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" does not need any long tunes, just this kind of twenty or thirty seconds is very easy to use.
But when the third piece of music sounded, Li Yiding was stunned, this is a passionate march.
The so-called march is a kind of rhythmic and paced music, which originated in war, and was used by the army to inspire the will of the warriors to fight.
The rhythm is strong, exciting, exciting, and exciting, which is the hallmark of the march, and this third piece is just that.
Just listening to the song, one can think of thousands of troops rushing through the flying dust, the blades refracting a dazzling light in the sunlight, and changing with the banners waving in the wind.
Although this piece does not include the sound of horses' hooves, it gives people the feeling of hearing the sound of horses' hooves, and the sound of countless horses' hooves converges together, as if it is a large army pressing down.
As the music becomes more and more intense, thousands of troops and horses transform into a surging tide, with the momentum of drowning everything and sweeping together.
What Li Yiding didn't expect was that this piece was very long, five or six minutes long, and the instruments were very complete.
In other words, after Zhou Yan finished writing this piece, he also deliberately found an orchestra to play it, and listening to the momentum of the piece, there are 30 people in this orchestra.
Moreover, the difficulty of writing such a highly completed song is completely different from the previous two, and it takes a lot of time just to orchestrate it.
After all three pieces were finished, Li Yiding held the tape recorder and muttered for a while.
With these three songs, there is no problem at all with Zhou Yan being in charge of the soundtrack of more than 40 episodes, the only thing that makes Li Yiding a little worried is that Zhou Yan's style is relatively trendy, and the use of orchestration is also a little different from her previous design.
If Zhou Yan is to be used, there may be some run-in between the two of them.
About half a minute later, Li Yiding withdrew the tape from the tape recorder, and then said to Zhou Yan and Zhang Youan, "The two of you will rest here for a while, and I'll go out." ”
Zhou Yan smiled, "It's okay, Mr. Li, you can go, let's sit here for a while." ”
Li Yiding nodded, and then took the tape with him.
She went for a long time.
Forty minutes later, Li Yiding reappeared in the conference room.
"Two, come with me to Director Wang's office."
When he said this, Li Yiding had a smile on his face.
As soon as he saw this smile, Zhang Youan also smiled, because he already knew that Zhou Yan's soundtrack for "Three Kingdoms" was probably completed.
The two followed Li Yiding to Wang Fulin's office, and as soon as they arrived at the corridor on the fourth floor, they heard the bloody melody of "Seven Swords Battle Song".
Next, they didn't need Li Yiding to lead the way, they followed the notes to find it, and they could also find Wang Fulin's office.
In the room, Wang Fulin was standing next to the tape recorder, staring at the tape recorder playing music.
"Knock knock."
Hearing the knock on the door, Wang Fulin turned his head and saw Li Yiding and them, then smiled and pressed the pause button of the tape recorder.
"This is Zhou Yan, right?" As he spoke, Wang Fulin walked up to Zhou Yan and stretched out his hand to shake Zhou Yan's hand, "Sure enough, it's a hero out of a young man, I was already very surprised when I heard the soundtrack of "The Forbidden City: Memory" before, and when I heard these three tunes again this time, my jaw dropped even more." ”
Wang Fulin is in his early sixties, a little thin, a little dark, although his temples are slightly white, but the whole person is still very energetic, not like a person who is already sixty.
Although he was thin, his hands were wide and strong.
Zhou Yan's hand was held, and he fully felt Wang Fulin's power, and he replied with a smile: "Director Wang is too famous, it is not easy for such a big plan as "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", compared to Director Wang in the center, all I can do is add bricks and tiles." If the song satisfies you, then I have made a small contribution to the project. ”
"You're too modest." Wang Fulin waved his hand and asked Zhou Yan and them to sit down, "Let's sit down and talk." ”
After everyone sat down, Wang Fulin spoke again, "I don't want you to just make a small contribution, I also hope that you and Yiding can work together to contribute more to our Three Kingdoms." ”
"As long as the crew needs it, I am naturally obliged."
Wang Fulin nodded, "I originally intended to find two or three more soundtrack artists to share the work for Yiding, but just now the two of us communicated for a while, and finally I was persuaded by her that the soundtrack of "Three Kingdoms" will not find anyone else, and the two of you will be in charge." But I also want to give you a preventive shot, the project of "Three Kingdoms" is not small, and there is a lot of work on the soundtrack, and now there are only two of you, and the burden has become heavier, and the follow-up progress has to keep up. ”
The reason why Wang Fulin wanted to find a few more soundtrack artists before was because he was worried that he would not be able to keep up with the progress, although he was now persuaded by Li Yiding, his worries had not been completely eliminated, so he emphasized it to Zhou Yan again.
Zhou Yan said, "I am still young, and in the face of such a heavy burden, I am naturally under a lot of pressure. But I have a lot of ideas for the soundtrack of "Three Kingdoms", so I am confident that I can work with Mr. Li to accomplish this task. ”
Hearing Zhou Yan's answer, Wang Fulin laughed, although Zhou Yan was very modest just now, but at this moment he looked very confident.
This is very good, young people, be humble when you should be humble, and you must also be humble when you should move forward, and don't be afraid.
It's not that if you believe that you can do a good job, you will definitely be able to do a good job, but if you don't have confidence, then there is a chance that you won't be able to do well.
After chatting with Zhou Yan for more than ten minutes, Wang Fulin looked at the time and said with a smile, "Zhou Yan, the matter of the soundtrack has been decided, if there is anything in the future, you can dock with Yiding, of course, if there are other things that need my assistance, you can also come to me directly." ”
Zhou Yan knew that Wang Fulin was going to send off guests, so he stood up with a smile, "Okay, then we won't disturb Director Wang." ”
……
Coming out of Wang Fulin's office, Li Yiding said with a smile, "Zhou Yan, you give me your contact information in a while, and we will talk more when we have free time during this time." ”
After the matter was settled, Li Yiding was very happy, she had a different opinion from Wang Fulin before, she just wanted to hire another soundtrack, and then determine it as soon as possible, today is equivalent to satisfying all her demands.
Zhou Yan handed a business card to Li Yiding directly from his pocket, "Teacher Li, there is my contact information on it." ”
This is Zhang Youan's new business card for Zhou Yanyin, in addition to Zhou Yan's private number and pager number, there is also Zhang Youan's contact information.
Taking Zhou Yan's business card, Li Yiding raised his eyebrows, quite surprised.
Business cards are not a novelty, but this thing is generally only available to businessmen who run business, and ordinary people have business cards.
However, Zhou Yan's business card is not the same as those businessmen's business cards, the information on it is very simple, in addition to Tomson's logo, it is Zhou Yan's name and contact information, unlike those businessmen, there are a lot of names on the business card.
"Okay, I'll take it." Putting the business card in his pocket, Li Yiding smiled again, "Let's go, go to my office now, and I'll give you the rest of the script." ”
On the way back to Li Yiding's office, the three of them happened to run into Xu Tong Road.
Seeing Zhou Yan and them, Xu Tonglu said with a smile, "I went to Sister Li's office to look for you just now, and I found that I wasn't there, and I was about to leave." ”
Li Yiding looked at Xu Tonglu and said with some surprise, "You know each other?" ”
After asking, Li Yiding suddenly reacted, "By the way, "The Forbidden City: Memory" was produced by Xiao Xu and your station. ”
Xu Tonglu nodded, "Well, Director Zhou has cooperated a lot with us." ”
Hearing Xu Tonglu call Zhou Yan as Director Zhou, Li Yiding was a little surprised, but he didn't ask much, just said to Xu Tonglu, "Xiao Xu went to my office to sit?" ”
"Okay, won't you delay your work?" Xu Tonglu said with a smile.
"No, the work side of things is over."
Xu Tonglu took the opportunity to ask, "Is Director Zhou going to score "Three Kingdoms"?" ”
Li Yiding didn't hide it, and nodded with a smile, "Well, Zhou Yan came here today to talk about this matter, and now it's settled." ”
Hearing this, Xu Tonglu said excitedly, "This is good material, I have to make an appointment for you to do an interview." ”
Li Yiding said with a smile, "Hey, isn't it just a soundtrack, what is there to interview, if you want to interview, go interview with the directors and actors." ”
If it was just a soundtrack, Xu Tonglu certainly wouldn't want an interview.
Behind the scenes, except for directors and screenwriters, other types of work rarely attract attention from the outside world.
But Zhou Yan is different, Zhou Yan is not only a soundtrack, he is also an actor and director, and the movie "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly" directed by Zhou Yan will be released in July.
Their TV station has already done an interview with Zhou Yan and several other main creators before, and it has not been broadcast yet, but now it is time to do another interview, and put the two interviews together to make a small topic.
The award-winning director of the Clermont-Ferrand International Film Festival scored the score for "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which is a gimmicky thing.
Xu Tonglu said with a smile, "Anyway, Zhou Yan's movie is about to be released, and it just happens to have an interaction with "Three Kingdoms", which can be regarded as a promotion for "Three Kingdoms". ”
"Zhou Yan's movie?" Li Yiding said with a surprised face, "What movie did Zhou Yan play?" ”
She only thought that Zhou Yan was acting, and she didn't think about the director at all.
Now it was time for Xu Tonglu to be puzzled, he looked at Li Yiding, and then at Zhou Yan and Zhang Youan next to him.
"Director Zhou, didn't you tell Sister Li, you are still a director?"
Zhang Youan explained with a smile, "Because "Three Kingdoms" is a soundtrack work, I didn't do more extensions. ”
Zhou Yan also smiled, "Actually, there is nothing to say, I did make a movie, but it has no impact on the soundtrack of "Three Kingdoms". ”
Xu Tonglu said with a smile, "Director Zhou, you are too modest, but the film won the Clermont-Ferrand Film Festival Award." ”
In fact, Xu Tonglu was wrong, first of all, the award was won for the short film "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly", not the upcoming feature film, and secondly, it was not the film festival award, but the judges' special award, but Zhou Yan did not correct him, because it was too much waste of time and unnecessary.
Li Yiding didn't expect that Zhou Yan was still a director, and the movies she made sounded quite powerful, and she won international awards, she is not in the film industry after all, so she naturally doesn't know much about these film festivals.
When Zhang Youan came to them before, he only told them that Zhou Yan had participated in the soundtrack of "The Red Lantern Hangs High", "Heaven's Reply" and "The Forbidden City: Memory", and did not mention that Zhou Yan had won awards for his films.
This is also too low-key, Li Yiding couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
And the reason why Zhang Youan didn't say anything about the director before was not that he was low-key, but because he had his own considerations.
The matter of directing the movie is of no use to Zhou Yan's election as the soundtrack of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and the movie has not been released yet, and they have not seen it, so the effect is even worse.
Since it does not work, there is no need to boast.
After knowing that Zhou Yan was still a director, Li Yiding was also very interested in the movie he made, and when she learned that the movie would be released in the mainland on July 10, she also said that she must watch it.
