Low Key Star

  Chapter 160 [160] The Great Wall will never fall

Walking out of the restaurant, Zhang Yang propped up Lin Yiran's parasol to cover the two of them from the sun. He looked at the seniors and sisters passing by around him, and saw a few boys walking under the scorching sun cast envious glances. Superiority.

  I used to envy those boys with girlfriends in the summer.

   Zhang Yang glanced at Lin Yiran, and after thinking about it, he felt that what these people envied might not be the parasol covering his head. It seems that such a girlfriend is more enviable, right?

  Hey, it really is a cheating life...

  Lin still noticed the smile on his face, thinking that he was coaxing himself with a word of complacency, and snorted: "Don't think that if you say something nice, I won't remember the things about my childhood sweetheart."

   "You belong to the crime of wanting to impose!"

Zhang Yang held her in one hand and held an umbrella in the other, and moved the umbrella to his side, exposing Lin to the scorching sun, but looking at her crystal white and tender skin, he thought he was really tanned, and he was the one who suffered , quickly moved back.

  Lin still looked at him and asked, "You mean I wronged you?"

   "It was originally wronged."

   Zhang Yang has already noticed that Lin still doesn't really think he has a childhood sweetheart, probably because he didn't accompany her all the holidays, and he was a little bit resentful, so he found an excuse to find fault, which is understandable, Zhang Yang is very understanding and doesn't expose her.

   "Then who are you writing about?"

"You."

   "Nonsense, I never saw you when I was young."

   "This childhood is not a childhood in the real sense."

Zhang Yang held her hand, rambling seriously, "Actually, writing this song is a fiction, and it is indeed a fiction, but it is not a complete fiction—you went to school early, when I started the first year of high school, I saw you for the first time. , just turned sixteen, you should be fourteen then, right?"

   "Yeah, what's the matter?"

   "I want to know what Lin looked like before the age of fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine..."

   Zhang Yang was originally talking nonsense, but as he talked, he couldn't help but feel a burst of tenderness. He looked at her and said with a smile: "So let's just assume that it would be nice if we two knew each other since we were young..."

  Luo Shen popped up again and sneered: "Don't forget that your childhood sweetheart was defeated by heaven."

   Fortunately, Lin is still not as boring as Luoshen. He glanced at Zhang Yang, his eyes were full of waves, and he was indescribably tender and touching, but he just bit his lips and said angrily, "I don't believe it."

   Zhang Yang laughed dryly: "The inspiration really came from this way, and it wasn't that you like Chinese style, and I might not try to write this kind of song..."

  Worried that Lin Yiran would continue to ask, he would not be able to lie, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "By the way, do you have any thoughts on the MV of "You at the Same Table"?"

  Lin still said: "I will shoot whatever you want me to do."

   Paused, stared at him and added: "Okay, you are not allowed to shoot things that didn't happen in the future. I think that director said it well."

"I feel so too."

Zhang Yang's first album had twelve MVs. Two directors were hired, one named Qian Mu and the other named Wei Xiang. Each was in charge of six songs. Wei Xiang was in charge of "You at the Same Table", "Thousands of Miles Away" and "Sunny Day". "East Wind Breaks", "I Have You in My Life" and "On the Qingming Rain"

  —It’s not easy to shoot!

But this is her active choice. In the previous exchanges, I can also feel that she has indeed done a certain amount of in-depth thinking on these six songs, such as "You at the Same Table". According to her setting, This is a song written when the protagonist misses the heroine after graduation, and the two will meet again, which is very much in line with Zhang Yang's wishes.

  Lin still nodded, and asked again: "What are you going to tell the school?"

   "First ask Mr. Fu, which teacher can make the decision, and then call to ask if there are any restrictions...Anyway, if you let the shoot, you can shoot it, and if you don't let it go, forget it."

  Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Anyway, everyone is mine, and it doesn't matter which school you shoot at."

  Lin still blushed a little, and said angrily, "Who is yours now?"

   "You."

  Lin still turned around, feeling a little arrogant, "No!"

"Can you say that again?"

"no!"

"Say it again."

"It is not."

   "..."

  Lin still saw that he was silent, looked at him cautiously, then looked at him again, finally a little shy, a little funny, and said in a helpless tone: "Yes, okay?"

   Zhang Yang glanced at her, let out a "squeak", let go of her hand, and walked straight forward, "You seem so wronged...it's not unusual."

  Lin was still angry and funny, and shouted from behind: "Then give me back the umbrella!"

   Zhang Yang turned his head and stared at her: "No!"

  Lin still walked forward a few steps, held Zhang Yang's hand while turning the umbrella sideways, and said sweetly: "I'm rare, can it be okay?"

   Zhang Yang made another "tss", held her hand, and walked forward without looking back, "It's late."

   "Then let go of my hand."

   "Hold on!"

   "Aren't you not rare?"

   "It's not rare."

   "Then let go of my hand."

   "Hold on!"

   "Aren't you not rare?"

   "It's not rare."

   Zhang Yang originally wanted to continue repeating, paused, then turned his head, looking at her face as beautiful as jade, "But there is no way, you are too beautiful, I am good at everything, just lustful."

  Lin still blushed slightly, hit him angrily, and stopped being poor with him, "Then hit him again after school in the evening. At this time, Teacher Fu may be sleeping."

  Zhang Yang nodded, "Old man Fu must be very happy to receive my call, but after all, he is getting old, and it is not easy to sleep well."

  Lin was still a little amused, so he hit him again, and they separated at the fork in Lizhiyuan. One went to the left and the other to the right. They took a nap in the dormitory and went to class in the afternoon.

  Both of them had two classes in the afternoon, and school ended in early four o'clock, so Zhang Yang went back to the company first.

The song "Huo Zongxia" has already been given to Zhou Fengyi's movie, and Zhang Yang has already prepared a song for the drama version of "Huo Zongxia" after watching it once, but he can't read the script today and give the song tomorrow, it's too scary and easy Something happened, so I pretended to revise it repeatedly these days, and only took the "song book" over in the afternoon.

   "The Great Wall will never fall?"

  Just looking at the name, He Yanping felt refreshed, and had a faint premonition that this talented young man who kept surprising him before meeting him seemed to impress him again.

  He was not in a hurry to read the music, but first read the words—this title, the meaning of the words is obviously good.

   "Sleeping for a hundred years, the people of the country are gradually waking up"

   "Open your eyes and watch carefully"

  He Yanping only read a few sentences, then hummed softly along with the tune involuntarily, Zhang Yang corrected with a smile: "It's actually better to use Cantonese."

  He Yanping was slightly taken aback, then nodded, and said, "Huo Zongxia is from Yangcheng, so it's really good to sing in Cantonese...Are you going to sing it yourself?"

   "Let's hire someone else."

   Zhang Yang had thought about this question before, shook his head, and said with a smile, "I'm afraid I won't be able to sing."

  He Yanping pondered for a while, and felt that Zhang Yang's timbre was not suitable for this song. He nodded, and Zhang Yang said again: "This harmony part, and this drum, I need your help to look at it."

Although there are concerns, we can’t do everything from lyrics, music, arrangement, orchestration, etc., so it seems that He Yanping, the music director, is too redundant, so Zhang Yang will leave some room for him to play a role in every song. , He Yanping still has a level, don't worry about him breaking things

  —The big deal is that I can come up with the original version under his suggestion.

He Yanping has been in the world for many years, and he knows Zhang Yang's thoughts clearly, but he will never tear down his platform if he shows his favor, so he nodded and said: "If you are free, you can Why don't you record a demo now and send it over there later?"

Zhang Yang thought for a while and nodded, so they went downstairs to the recording studio together. As soon as they got out of the elevator, they saw Fang Shang walking towards him, saw Zhang Yang and He Yanping, and only smiled at Zhang Yang. Turn a blind eye.

  He Yanping didn't take it seriously. When Fang Chang got into the elevator, seeing Zhang Yang's puzzled face, he just smiled and didn't say anything.

   Zhang Yang didn’t talk too much, went to the recording studio and sang it again, and found that he really deserved to be an opener. He thought that his timbre was not suitable for this song, but he didn’t expect to sing it—it’s pretty good!

  He Yanping was also a little surprised at first, but after pondering for a while, he said again: "I lost a lot of energy—record it again?"

   "Record it again!"

Zhang Yang recorded it three times in a row, but He Yanping still felt dissatisfied. In fact, Zhang Yang could hear it himself. It lacked that exciting feeling. This probably has something to do with his young voice. This kind of song still needs that kind of sound. Only when the heroic and vicissitudes of life is sung by a big male voice.

  Anyway, it was just a demo, and Zhang Yang didn't intend to sing it, so He Yanping wasn't too harsh. He found a version from the four times Zhang Yang sang, and sent it to Liang Yanfu.

  Liang Yanfu is over fifty years old. Compared with Zhou Fengyi, he can be regarded as a typical late bloomer—to be precise, a typical "late".

  The TV series "Huo Zongxia" is the first TV series he directed. It was because the original director and the producer broke up, so he was hired to replace him temporarily. Otherwise, it would probably be more typical.

  The inspiration, ideas, and talents that have been held back for half a lifetime, all want to be shown in this TV series. Liang Yanfu's painstaking efforts and hopes for this TV series can be imagined.

  In all fairness, the song "Huo Zongxia" is quite different from the theme song he wanted, but there is no way, who made Zhang Yang popular, and this song is loved by young people?

He chose this song not for the theme or thought, but purely for the hearts of the people. If the budget is exceeded, the funds that can be used for publicity are very limited.

  The song "Huo Zongxia" is the theme song and also a promotion.

He made good plans, but unfortunately, he didn't expect that Zhou Fengyi would also like this song, which made him both shocked and annoyed. The subsequent result was as expected. Know... Do you know who Liang Yanfu is?

  Zhang Yang will customize a song for the drama version of "Huo Zongxia". This news did surprise him, but that's all. He didn't have much hope or joy.

He chose "Huo Zongxia" mainly because of the existing popularity of this song, and wanted to add some publicity effects to the TV series that did not have much funding... Zhang Yang wrote another song, even if the standard is not weaker than "Huo Zongxia", no With Yinchao's platform, how can we guarantee that this song will have the popularity of "Huo Zongxia"?

   It wasn't until Zhang Yang's first album was released that Liang Yanfu saw another hope.

   Zhang Yang is so popular... If only he could do all the lyrics and music...

  However, he quickly dismissed this idea. The reason is also very simple. With Zhang Yang's current popularity and the current financial situation of the crew, it is more than 90% likely that he cannot afford to invite Zhang Yang to sing...

  This feeling of powerlessness made him feel bad for several days, but when his assistant told him that Seagull had sent him the song score and the demo recorded by Zhang Yang, he couldn't help but feel hopeful.

  He doesn't understand music, so he just listened to the demo first.

   "There is no harmony, this will be added during the official recording."

The assistant informed him of the situation in time, and Liang Yanfu heard it, but did not give any thought to the words, so even though part of the harmony and accompaniment were missing, the prelude still had a passionate feeling .

   "Sleeping for a hundred years, the people of the country are gradually waking up"

   "Open your eyes and watch carefully"

  …

  After the two-minute demo was played, Liang Yanfu said with pride, "This is it! It's best to let Zhang Yang sing..."

   After a pause, his tone weakened, and he turned to ask the assistant, "How did they quote?"
