Chapter 157: Let's go to the recital

Now in Neon, the most well-known actress is Wang Zuxian, the neon movie magazine "Road Show" is the best foreign star of the year selected by readers every year, from 88 to this year, Wang Zuxian has been on the list for several years, and once topped the list of the most popular foreign female stars.

This year, Neon's film magazine "Screen" selected the top ten most popular female stars in 92, and Wang Zuxian ranked sixth and the only Chinese actress selected.

For many neon fans, when it comes to Chinese actresses, the first thing that comes to their mind is Wang Zuxian.

Wang Zuxian is no stranger to neon, last year she also went to neon to shoot Shiseido's advertisement, she was also the first foreign spokesperson Shiseido found, when Shiseido asked Wang Zuxian to shoot an advertisement, it also caused a small sensation.

That's why Nomura Shu was so surprised when he saw Wang Zuxian.

Wang Zuxian knew that a neon column group was coming today, so he was naturally not surprised at all, and took the initiative to say hello to the camera.

"Hello everyone, I'm Wang Zuxian, welcome to the new movie "The Sixth Sense" directed by Zhou Yan, I also have a performance in it."

Nomura Xiu looked at Wang Zuxian who was talking to the camera, and the excitement in his heart was indescribable, he never expected that there would be an unexpected joy when he came to interview Zhou Yan today.

One is a rookie Chinese musician who is now hot in Neon, and the other is the most popular Chinese actress in Neon.

"Ms. Wang Zuxian, we are all your fans."

Neon people are also very good at saying kind words, and they have become fans of Wang Zuxian at this time.

"Ms. Wang Zuxian, can I ask you a few questions?"

Wang Zuxian agreed very generously, "No problem, but it can only be related to movies." ”

Nomura Shu nodded, "Can you tell me what kind of role you played in the movie?" ”

"I play the male lead's wife......"

Next, the two of them asked and answered questions around the movie, and basically Nomura Xiu's questions Wang Zuxian would answer.

Wang Zuxian's degree of cooperation is somewhat beyond Nomura Xiu's imagination, and he can't help but sigh that Miss Wang Zuxian is really beautiful and kind, and full of affinity.

Zhou Yan couldn't let Nomura Xiu and them catch Wang Zuxian to talk, so he pulled He Saifei and Zhang Jiahui over and asked them to talk to Nomura Xiu.

After the main actors finished talking, Zhou Yan asked Wang Xiaoshuai and them to show their faces again.

In fact, Zhou Yan knows that in the end, Nomura Show will definitely cut out most of the content, but as long as they shoot it now, there is still the possibility of showing their faces in the final show later, if they don't shoot it now, they can't cut their content in the future.

Showing their faces on neon TV doesn't seem to have much meaning to Wang Xiaoshuai and them, but this thing is originally a business without capital, and it is always a good thing to show your face more, maybe Wang Xiaoshuai and they can also become big directors who enter neon in the future, no one can say for sure what happens in this world.

As for Leung Jiahui, Zhou Yan still hopes that his content can be cut into the show a little more.

Leung Jiahui is different from Wang Xiaoshuai, he is now on the rise in his career, and he is also an actor who eats by "face", showing his face more this time will also help him enter the neon market in the future.

If there is a suitable script in the future, Zhou Yan still wants to cooperate more with Leung Jiahui.

took Nomura Xiu and them around the scene, and Zhou Yan asked Jiang Xia to take them to dinner, and he didn't accompany him.

Today's program recording is over.

Although today's recording time is not particularly long, Nomura Show is already satisfied, because everything that should be recorded has been recorded, and even Wang Zuxian was filmed.

Before Zhou Yan promised to show Nomura their videotape, he didn't forget it, and asked Jiang Xia to get a copy for them.

……

Zhou Yan had a meal with Wang Zuxian and them at noon, and then returned to the school's concert hall.

This afternoon the students who composed 88 were rehearsing in the concert hall, and he came to take a look.

Although Zhou Yan is no longer composing 88, but in the past year, many students in their class will still consult Zhou Yan as long as they have questions, and in the hearts of many composing 88 students, Zhou Yan is their best teacher.

Last year's composition 88 did not graduate early, and all of them graduated together this year. In the past two years, the level of their current session has improved rapidly, especially after Zhou Yan arrived in their session, their attention this session has suddenly increased.

Under this attention, coupled with Zhou Yan's encouragement and guidance, the students' mood changed rapidly.

Zhou Yan has also been paying attention to them, he has listened to everyone's graduation works, and he has also given some guidance, Shen Huaigang and Xu Lang's songs are the most prominent, which is also in Zhou Yan's expectations, these two people's talents are already high.

Especially the kid Xu Lang, when Xu Lang entered the central sound, his schoolwork was very good, but he met such a bastard as Li Bingyang and delayed him.

But in music, talent is too important, even if Xu Lang is delayed for two or three years, the next two years will make great efforts, and the progress will be very fast.

In fact, Zhou Yan is also quite eccentric, although he will give guidance to each of the more than a dozen students of 88 composition, but every time he guides Xu Lang, he has to be more attentive.

This is also helpless, because whatever Zhou Yan says to Xu Lang, this kid can receive it quickly, and this kind of feedback is too enjoyable for teachers.

When Zhou Yan arrived at the concert hall, not only were 88 composers present, but Yu Ran and Fang Xiu were also there.

This year's graduation work exchange meeting, the annual graduation work exchange meeting is jointly organized by the Department of Composition and the Department of Orchestra, not only the graduation works of the composition students, but also the graduation performance of the students of the orchestra department.

Yu Ran and Fang Xiu are graduating this year.

Seeing Zhou Yan, Xu Lang jumped off the stage all of a sudden, "Senior brother, why do you have time?" ”

Zhou Yan looked at the stands and said with a smile, "I'm here to see your rehearsals, you're going to the battlefield this weekend, are you nervous?" ”

Xu Lang laughed, "I'm not nervous, what's there to be nervous about, we rehearse every day, and we have a semester work exchange meeting every semester." ”

Zhou Yan shook his head, "This is different, how many people are there in the semester work exchange meeting?" ”

"Didn't you sit in the classroom the time you were there before? We've all seen big scenes. ”

"Okay, keep this calm and confidence, and I will pay attention to you offstage when the time comes."

While the two were talking, the squad leader Shen Huaigang also walked over, "Brother, you're here." ”

Hearing Shen Huaigang's title, Zhou Yan was stunned, "What do you call me?" ”

"Brother." Shen Huaigang explained with a smile, "You see, the focus of the senior brother is on the word brother, and the focus of the brother is on the word teacher, you are not only our brother but also our teacher, and it is most appropriate to call you brother and teacher." ”

Zhou Yan tugged at the corners of his mouth, this title sounded too awkward, but he didn't dwell on this, turned to look at the stage, said hello to Yu Ran, and then asked Shen Huaigang: "This graduation performance, everything went well, right?" ”

"Well, everything went well, Teacher Jia has arranged it for us."

Zhou Yan nodded, "You guys rehearse, don't worry about me, I'll just take a look below." ”

"Okay."

Then they didn't talk much and began to go on stage to continue rehearsals.

After a while, 88 composers came over one after another, and they all ran over to greet Zhou Yan one by one.

Their rehearsal time is arranged in advance, basically five or six students will be arranged to rehearse in half a day, and one student's song will be practiced several times.

However, during the latter period, each student basically practiced twice in three days.

In fact, for performers with a relatively high level, most of the students' graduation works are not difficult to play, especially for players like Fang Xiu and Yu Ran, who have participated in concerts, they can be familiar with the general music after a few times.

However, not all the students in the orchestra department are masters, even in a place like central sound, there are a lot of bastards.

In the composition department, it is basically impossible for a student to be worse in the fifth grade than when he first entered the school, mainly because most of the composition students do not know much about composition when they first arrive at the school.

Many composition students have been practicing a certain instrument since childhood, and they can write songs that are not particularly contradictory after a little surprise composition during the art exam.

In this case, they must continue to improve in school, it is a matter of how fast they progress.

But the orchestral side is different, there are really some students in their senior year, and their performance level is not as good as when they were freshmen.

Some students have been practicing the piano since childhood, and they have gone to the conservatory with a sigh of relief, but after they came, they didn't want to practice anymore.

Practicing the piano is the same as practicing boxing, if you don't practice diligently enough, you can't do it at all, and if you don't practice for a while, you will be rusty.

Zhou Yan sat in the audience and listened for more than an hour, and Jia Guoping also came.

Walking to Zhou Yan and sitting down, Jia Guoping said in a low voice, "How about it, the level of this session is actually not bad, right?" ”

Zhou Yan nodded, "Well, although there is nothing particularly outstanding, the overall level is okay." ”

"Isn't it okay to allow Lang and Shen Huaigang's works? You can't hold them to your own standards, if you follow your standards, will our school still stand out in the past ten years? ”

"By Li Tao's standards?" Zhou Yan asked with a smile.

Jia Guoping rolled his eyes, "Li Tao is also a wonder, he wins by quantity, and there will always be one or two good songs in a bunch of bad songs." ”

"No matter what you win, Li Tao's level is really high."

"It's a pity that I met you, otherwise he would also be the top name of 87 composition."

"And you."

The two smiled silently, if Li Tao was placed in the next few sessions, he would definitely be the man of the year in the department, but when he met Zhou Yan and Jia Guoping, he didn't get any other names except for a "love saint".

"How's the study abroad going now?" Zhou Yan asked.

"It's basically settled, I'll leave next spring, and after Shen Huaigang and their graduation this year, I'll be considered to have made a difference." Jia Guoping sighed slightly, "Actually, I myself am sometimes conflicted, I still want to stay and continue to teach." ”

When Jia Guoping said this, Zhou Yan didn't think he was pretentious, Zhou Yan knew that he really hoped that the central sound would be good, and that the composition department would be good.

"Sharpening knives is not a chopping woodworker, it's not like you won't come back from studying abroad, and when you return from further study, you can also increase the faculty of our school." I believe in you, and you will not be blinded by the Western world of flowers. Most of the music theories we learn in school come from the West, don't you want to see what's going on? ”

Hearing this, Jia Guoping laughed all of a sudden, "You persuaded me to come, according to what you said, you should go out even more." Not just to see the Western music world, but also to see you. ”

Zhou Yan smiled and didn't speak.

If he just wants to pursue a higher level of art, he should indeed go out and see it now, but if he wants the world to know him, then what he should do is to put out more works that can be circulated.

"Eternal Night" is very good, "Flow, Wind" is very good, and the teachers of the composition department all give a thumbs up when they see these two pieces, but no matter how good these two pieces are, they can only keep him an artist in a small circle.

No matter how well you follow the path of the classical masters, you can't surpass them, Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, Brahms...... These mountains are beyond the reach of today's people.

No matter how many reasons why many musicians like to engage in avant-garde and experimentation, they just want to escape from the masters and redefine a new genre and a new period.

Seeing that Zhou Yan didn't speak, Jia Guoping didn't say anything more, and raised his head to look at the rehearsal on the stage.

After watching for more than an hour, the two got up and walked out of the concert hall, and they were going to go to the cafeteria to eat first when there were few people.

When he was halfway there, Jia Guoping suddenly said, "Xinning is also ready to study in Germany." ”

Zhou Yan turned his head to look at him, "What about you?" ”

"We're ready to get our permits and leave."

"Congratulations, are you going to have a wedding?"

"Xinning said that she wouldn't do it, but I think that if she doesn't do it, she will be too wronged."

"I think it's still going to be done, you two may not matter, your parents, senior sister's parents, must be able to attend your wedding. But this matter still needs to be discussed between the two of you, I have seen too many couples who quarrel over marriage. Then Zhou Yan smiled again, "In fact, marriage is also a run-in between couples, and when organizing a wedding, you will encounter all kinds of problems that you need to face together." ”

"Well, I'll go back and talk to her about it." Jia Guoping nodded, then patted Zhou Yan on the shoulder and said, "If we want to have a wedding, you can't leave it alone." ”

Zhou Yan patted his chest and promised, "It is incumbent on me, not only me, but none of the cubs in our department will be able to run away at that time, and I promise to give you and your senior sister a beautiful wedding." ”

Jia Guoping laughed and patted Zhou Yan's shoulder again, "With your words, my heart is settled." ”

……

On Saturday morning, at the door of the concert hall, several 88 composition students had already arrived early.

"Are you nervous?" Liu Ke asked.

Xu Lang smiled, "What's there to be nervous about?" ”

Liu Ke rubbed his hands, "No, I didn't feel it yesterday, but now I suddenly feel a little nervous, if today is the same as last year, the concert hall is full, I will definitely be nervous to death." ”

"You girls have poor mental quality." Xu Lang pouted, "Isn't the more people the better?" We're sure we'll see a bigger scene in the future, and it's all sprinkling. We musicians must have the psychological quality of not changing the face when Mount Tai collapses in front of us. ”

Shen Huaigang comforted, "Don't worry, there were many performers in my graduation work last year because my brother and teacher were going to perform on stage." Those of us who are too far from his attention, and it would be good to have one or two hundred listeners on the scene. ”

"Well, that's true." Liu Ke nodded, "But this brother sounds too strange." ”

"It won't be strange if you listen to it more."

As time went on, more and more people came to the concert hall, and at eight o'clock, someone came to open the door on time, and the students rushed in to start preparing for the performance.

At half past eight, there were many more audiences, and the battle was indeed much worse than last year, but depending on the situation, there were still two or three hundred spectators in addition to the musicians today.

At 8:40, Zhou Yan, Shi Wanchun, Jia Guoping and the principal Liu Lin walked in with a smile.

Seeing the teachers coming, Liu Ke felt the pressure doubled, and she tugged on Shen Huaigang's clothes next to her, "What to do, Huaigang, I'm suddenly nervous again now." ”

Shen Huaigang patted Liu Ke's hand, "What's so nervous about this, it's not that you don't know that the teachers are coming, it's normal for Principal Liu to come, Principal Wu also came last year." ”

Xu Lang on the side looked at the faces of Shen Huaigang and Liu Ke, and then looked at the hands they put together, and the whole person was stunned.

"You two are?"

Shen Huaigang smiled, "I didn't tell you about it." ”

Xu Lang was stunned, the world is changing too fast, his good brother Shen Huaigang said that women are troublesome every day, but he got off the list before graduation......

This guy is too doggy.

Just when Xu Lang was indignant, two people came in at the door, one in a wheelchair and the other pushing in the back.

"Who is this?" Liu Ke said curiously.

Shen Huaigang shook his head, "I don't know." ”

When they were wondering who it was, the principal Liu Lin had already taken Shi Wanchun and a group of teachers to get up.

Liu Lin smiled and shook hands with Yu Hua and Shi Tiesheng, "Mr. Yu Hua, Mr. Shi Tiesheng, welcome the two of you to our school to participate in the graduation performance of composition and orchestra. ”

Zhou Yan introduced, "This is Principal Liu Lin Liu. ”

Yu Hua said with a smile, "Tie Sheng and I have actually been here many times, but this is the first time I have met Principal Liu. ”

"I heard Teacher Zhou say, you are all people who love music, and if you want to listen to music in the future, just come to CCTV, there are not many others in our school, but you can hear music everywhere."

Later, Zhou Yan introduced Shi Wanchun and Jia Guoping to Yu Hua and them, and after greeting each other, everyone sat down.

Today's situation is special, so Shi Tiesheng didn't sit in his wheelchair anymore, and Zhou Yan arranged a place for him in the first row.

As soon as Shi Tiesheng and the others sat down, a few more people walked in outside the door.

When the students saw the faces of the visitors, they couldn't help but exclaim.

"Wang Zuxian!"

"Leung Ka Fai!"

"Third aunt?"

It was none other than the main creative team of "The Sixth Sense".

Because the progress in the early stage is relatively fast, everything that should be done has been done, and when the filming is approaching, the main creators are a little more relaxed.

When they heard that there was a graduation performance by CCTV today, they all wanted to come and listen to it.

In fact, this matter is still Wang Zuxian's pout.

Wang Zuxian has long known that Zhou Yan is going to participate in the graduation performance of the composition department and the orchestra department today, and she has always wanted to watch with Zhou Yan, but she is not good to come with Zhou Yan alone, so she asked everyone to come over.

There was no need to bother with this, she said it casually, and everyone responded.

During this time, they were indeed busy and a little tired, so they came to the concert to relax and relax, and of course they were willing.

There are a lot of people in the crew, actors, the director team and Liu Qing, adding up to more than 20 people.

Many students couldn't help but rub their eyes, they still couldn't believe that Wang Zuxian and Leung Jiahui were here.

After they walked in, they first went to greet Liu Lin and them under the leadership of Zhou Yan, and then got to know Shi Tiesheng and Yu Hua.

Wang Zuxian deliberately ran to sit next to Zhou Yan, anyway, she is the heroine of the movie, and others will not feel anything, and by the time they all sit down, it will be 9:50.

At this time, Jia Guoping brought a microphone to Liu Lin, and after Liu Lin took it, he tapped it twice, and the concert hall, which was still a little noisy, immediately quieted down.

"Before the show begins, I would like to say a few words. It's another annual graduation performance, and many years ago, like you, I was on stage preparing my own work for performance, and it's been so long. Spring planting and autumn harvest, you have studied in the central sound for four or five years, it is the process of sowing and fertilizing, and today is the time for you to harvest the fruits. We, together with all of you, are here to witness this important moment today. ”

Then Liu Lin looked at the first row and said with a smile, "This year is special, our graduation performance has welcomed some important guests, while there is still some time before the performance starts, I will briefly introduce to you, the one on my right hand is the well-known writer Mr. Yu Hua." ”

Yu Hua's popularity is not high among ordinary people, but there are still some people who know his name and know that it is Yu Hua, and they are all very surprised.

Although the others didn't know Yu Hua, they all applauded and welcomed.

Yu Hua clasped his hands together and greeted everyone.

He didn't stand up, not because he was arrogant, but because he was sitting next to Shi Tiesheng.

Liu Lin's second introduction is Shi Tiesheng, "The one next to Mr. Yu Hua is also a well-known writer, Mr. Shi Tiesheng." ”

Shi Tiesheng's fame is obviously a little bigger than Yu Hua's, and the discussion and applause at the scene are also a little bigger than when Yu Hua was introduced.

But this is nothing, when Wang Zuxian was introduced later, the enthusiasm of the applause was several levels higher than everyone else, even Liang Jiahui, the applause he received was much worse than Wang Zuxian.

After introducing them, Liu Lin didn't say anything more, because he knew that time was precious, so he let the stage start the performance.

The first person to perform on stage was the squad leader Shen Huaigang, who did not introduce his works after he came on stage, and started the performance directly.

His graduation work is a folk music quartet, and the instruments are also the most common bamboo flute, erhu, pipa and guzheng, and the song is called "Ascending the Heavenly Mountain".

The song expresses the change of mood of an ambitious man when he goes up the mountain, at first he is emotional, and then he is tired and discouraged because of the constant hardships, but he still grits his teeth and persists, and finally reaches the top.

The tune of this piece has ups and downs, but the whole is uplifting and very inspiring.

The song was not long, less than six minutes, but after the song was played, Shen Huaigang took the microphone and said a few words.

"Hello everyone, I am Shen Huaigang, thank you leaders, teachers, students and other VIPs, thank you for listening, this song is called "Ascending the Heavenly Mountain", in this piece I want to express the emotional changes when a person goes up the mountain. In fact, isn't our study process also a process of going to the mountains? ”

"We came to CCTV with enthusiasm and plunged headlong into the ocean of music, but we must have encountered all kinds of difficulties along the way, and for a while, I even thought that I would never be able to overcome these difficulties again, and I would never be able to go up the mountains in my life, but in the end I still came over. Here, I would like to thank the school for its training, the leaders for their care, and finally, I would like to thank Mr. Zhou Yan and Mr. Jia Guoping, without whom I may not be able to regain the motivation to go up the mountain. ”

After speaking, Shen Huaigang bowed deeply to the audience, and then led the musicians off the stage, and the applause continued until they went down.

Shi Wanchun glanced at Zhou Yan and Jia Guoping not far away, and his eyes showed some relief.

Although Shen Huaigang didn't say it very clearly, Shi Wanchun knew what Shen Huaigang was referring to.

When Li Bingyang was there, these students of the 88th class were indeed not very energetic, and later Zhou Yan took over with Jia Guoping, which made them rejuvenate this year.

Zhou Yan applauded and sighed at the same time, in fact, he felt that he really didn't do much for the students of the 88th class, but the students remembered his little bit of goodness deeply.

Shen Huaigang's "Ascending the Heavenly Mountain" has average technical performance, but he is relatively full of emotions, and he may be difficult to go deeper in the future, but if he does not have such high requirements for himself, he can learn from Zhou Yan, develop into film and television and pop repertoire, and maybe be able to get out of his own way.

After Shen Huaigang walked off the stage here, Xu Lang pouted and said, "Why don't you dare to call your brother on stage?" ”

"Hehe, I wanted to call it, but my brother and teacher came to my mouth, and I still didn't say it." Shen Huaigang looked at the back, "Chen Youfang, it's your turn, why don't you hurry up and delay the time?" ”

"Right away, right away, I'll tidy up my clothes."

……

After Chen Youfang came to the stage, he first introduced his songs, then thanked the leaders, and finally thanked Zhou Yan and Jia Guoping.

At first, everyone didn't think there was anything.

But later, almost every student who came to the stage had to thank Zhou Yan and Jia Guoping, especially Zhou Yan, who was basically inseparable from him.

The people in the composition department basically know why the students of the class of 88 are like this, but the others are not very clear, even if they are grateful, this is too exaggerated, and several students almost cried when they talked about it.

It wasn't until the last Xu Lang came to the stage and finished playing his work "Flowing Clouds" that he skipped the links of "thank the teacher" and "thank the leader", and said directly, "Senior Brother Zhou Yan, thank you, thank you for giving me the courage and confidence to continue on the road of music, if it weren't for you, maybe I would have completely lost interest in music at this time." This piece "Flowing Clouds" is a tribute to your "Flowing Wind", and I will always take you as my role model. ”

"When we were most discouraged, you appeared like a light in our lives, illuminating us, leading us, and leading us out of the darkness and into the light. I have taken all your teachings and care for us in my heart......"

Hearing Xu Lang's "affectionate confession", Zhou Yan couldn't help but pick his eyebrows, how could this kid say these earthy and sensual words.

When Zhou Yan and Wang Zuxian were tired, they had never said such a sensual thing.

The key is that Xu Lang didn't say a word or two, he still kept outout.

"At this time last year, you were also the last to perform on stage, when I sat under the stage, looking at your figure on stage, my heart was full of pride, yes, our senior brother Zhou Yan, is so ......"

Hearing these meaty words, Wang Zuxian was also holding back her laughter, she turned her head sideways and gave Zhou Yan a look, almost laughing.

The others are similar, although Xu Lang is true feelings, but what he says is too numb.

But soon, when they saw Xu Lang's tears flowing out, their smiling expressions froze.

No matter how exaggerated and numb Xu Lang's words were, his tears were really moving.

Wang Zuxian knew that Xu Lang was definitely not acting, if this could be performed, this student would be able to win the actor.

Jia Guoping saw that Xu Lang's emotions were completely uncontrollable, and hurriedly came to the stage and said, "Thank you Xu Lang and all the performers for their wonderful performances, today's last piece is also over here, and next, I would like to ask the leaders to say a few more words." ”

After finishing speaking, Jia Guoping poked Xu Lang and asked him to go down.

After Liu Lin got the microphone here, he simply commented on the students' works, and the comments on everyone were very brief, only two or three sentences, but they were all to the point, proving that when the students were performing, he was really listening carefully.

After finishing speaking, Liu Lin handed the microphone to Shi Wanchun, who took the microphone and said a few words of congratulations, and then handed the microphone to Zhou Yan and Jia Guoping, "The students thank you for a while, you can also say a few words." ”

Jia Guoping shook his head, "I told them about the last class meeting two days ago, and Zhou Yan said it today." ”

"Okay, then Zhou Yan said." Shi Wanchun poked the microphone in front of Zhou Yan, with a momentum that could not be refused.

"Then I'll say a few words."

Zhou Yan took the microphone with a smile, and the scene immediately burst into warm applause, and there were three places where the most energetic shooting was made, one was Liu Qing's part, the other was the side of the 88 composition department, and the last one was the students of the 92 composition department.

After coughing lightly and trying the microphone, Zhou Yan opened his mouth and said, "Now I am standing here, not as Teacher Zhou Yan, nor as Senior Brother Zhou Yan, but as an 88-level composition student, to chat with you." ”

As soon as I heard Zhou Yan say that he was a composition student of level 88, Xu Lang's tears were directly lost, and the tall man of more than 1.8 meters cried like a child.

As his name suggests, he is very cheerful and lively, but at this time he is the most emotionally fragile one. (End of chapter)
