The music played and the list of names are clearly written on the information.
The song is called "Shui Long Yin". The two main guests on the guest invitation list have been confirmed. The erhu player is Weng Yancai and the flute player is Shi Lingxiao.
Both of them are at the national team level. People who know something about traditional musical instruments have basically heard of their names, and many have even learned from their videos.
In addition, the composer who re-arranged "Shuilongyin" is also very famous, he is Jing Yunbing, a well-known figure in the industry.
Once this lineup is released, it would not be an exaggeration to say that they can immediately go on tour in various countries.
So Yanran, an unknown young man, is mixed up with a group of big shots. You can imagine how much pressure it would be like to perform on the same stage with them.
Seeing Lin Yanran staring at the names of several big guys, Hong Huixue thought that he had a heavy psychological burden, so she comforted him, "Of course, if we cooperate with them, it may be more difficult, but..."
However, before Hong Huixue finished speaking, Lin Yanran nodded and agreed.
“That’s it. I want to try it.”
There was a hint of excitement in his tone as he spoke.
Although for ordinary people, this may be a very difficult challenge.
But behind the challenge lies a great learning opportunity.
Hong Huixue originally thought that Lin Yanran would hesitate, but unexpectedly, everything went so smoothly.
She was willing to sign Lin Yanran because of Gu Siye's recommendation at the beginning.
But now, through further understanding, she gradually discovered that this person did not have the problems of other suddenly famous artists such as being too ambitious and having unrealistic expectations.
The whole person is very down to earth.
Moreover, his vision and ideas are very consistent with mine.
Lin Yanran agreed directly, and Hong Huixue immediately contacted the person in charge of the satellite TV station.
After receiving the news, the person in charge immediately sent over the contract documents.
Only after confirming that Yanran was really going to participate did he breathe a sigh of relief.
Although the program "National Treasures of History" has a good idea, it is not popular among the general public, so the ratings are not high and it is not ranked among the entire station.
Moreover, the online response is not very good at the moment, especially among young groups, it is not very popular at the moment.
Since it is a satellite program, there is naturally pressure on ratings.
Not only did the first episode fail to generate much buzz in terms of ratings and online discussion, but last night's second episode was also equally mediocre.
They put a lot of effort into completing this program, but now its reputation has not been established, so the entire program team is anxious to find a way to save it.
The director team referred to the opinions of netizens and planned to find some celebrities who are more suitable for the program to join in each time.
It just so happened that Lin Yanran’s video of playing the guzheng went viral recently, and his playing of the guzheng was very consistent with the theme of the third episode of music, so they wanted to give it a try and find him to drive a wave of traffic.
In fact, before they discovered Lin Yanran, they had contacted Song Zhu, an artist who had been pursuing a traditional Chinese style since his debut.
Song Zhu agreed at first, but refused before signing the contract.
At the beginning, the production team felt that if a star was performing with a group of big names, he would be crushed into ashes if he was not strong enough.
Therefore, if the artist does not want to force themselves and is afraid of affecting their image, they can understand the other party’s refusal.
Later they heard that Song Zhu was poached by a program on a satellite TV station that was in competition with them at a high price.
Song Zhu kept them in suspense for a long time, and only said it when the time was almost up, which made it almost impossible for them to find anyone, and this idea failed...
Fortunately, Yan Ran was straightforward and agreed immediately.
Because the program recording time was very tight, the program crew sent Jing Yunbing's music score to Lin Yanran as soon as the two parties had finalized it.
Hong Huixue had already prepared a guzheng for him.
After getting the music score, Lin Yanran calmly practiced at home for two days.
He has a good memory and can memorize the music score almost immediately after reading it once.
But if you want to play well, it is not enough to just memorize the music score.
Playing musical instruments is like dancing. If you don't practice for a day, your hands will become unfamiliar. An outsider can't see it, but an expert can see through it at a glance.
The three pieces he played last time were fine for fooling foreigners abroad, but if he really wanted to perform on the same stage with masters, he would definitely ruin the atmosphere of the entire piece if he didn't seize the time to practice hard.
Lin Yanran didn't want to be the one who held back.
So during these two days, except for eating, sleeping, going to the toilet and exercising, Lin Yanran spent almost all of her time practicing music scores within the limits of her body's tolerance.
Hong Huixue felt a little embarrassed seeing her hard work.
She didn't expect Yanran to be so serious and hardworking in doing things.
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t play that well, the audience will understand you.”
After all, the master has decades of experience, so it is normal that ordinary people cannot compare with him.
Lin Yanran rubbed his fingers and arms, smiled and shook his head, jokingly saying, "I have a heavy idol burden, I can't behave too embarrassingly in front of the masters."
After saying that, he played it again and asked Hong Huixue to record it for him.
He recorded it several times again, and only stopped to rest when he heard a version he was satisfied with.
The recording time of "Historical National Treasures" is on Friday.
In order to ensure that the performance on stage would be foolproof, the program team invited several masters to the program team two days in advance to rehearse "Shui Long Yin" with Lin Yanran.
Of course, they were not worried that the masters would not perform well, but they were worried about Lin Yanran.
They had sent the music score to the other party a long time ago, but because they had worked with other stars before, many of them only practiced it for the first time during the rehearsal for the performance the next day.
So in order to avoid this kind of thing from happening, they thought about getting together today so that if there were any problems later, they would be discovered earlier and there would still be time to remedy them.
The program team has arranged for the meeting to take place at three o'clock in the afternoon.
At 2:30, Lin Yanran arrived at the practice room early.
The staff was a little surprised to see Lin Yanran come so early.
"Teacher Weng and Teacher Shi haven't arrived yet. Teacher Yanran, please take a rest here first."
Lin Yanran politely thanked the other party, then found a chair in the practice room and sat down.
He put on his headphones and listened to the version he played yesterday again.
The feeling of listening to a song you play is completely different from listening to a song played by others.
Lin Yanran thought it was pretty good yesterday, but today he felt that there was a small flaw in it, so he glanced at the guzheng placed in the practice room by the program team and asked the staff, "Can I practice first?"
It was rare for a young artist to come so early and be so dedicated, so of course the staff nodded quickly, "You are welcome."
After obtaining consent, Lin Yanran immediately replayed the part that she was not satisfied with.
As he played, he started over again from the beginning.
So when Weng Yancai and Shi Lingxiao arrived on time at three o'clock, they heard a smooth and melodious guzheng playing at the door.
Shi Lingxiao paused and looked at Weng Yancai beside him, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"Did they invite anyone else today?"
Weng Yancai shook his head and smiled, "How would I know?"
After saying that, he pointed to the gate and said, "Just go in and take a look and you'll know."
After he finished speaking, he pushed open the half-closed door.
The two looked in the direction of the sound and found that the person playing the guzheng was a handsome young man in his twenties.
Lin Yanran lowered her head and played the piano very attentively, and did not notice someone coming at first.
When he came to his senses after playing the last part, he finally discovered that the two masters had been standing three meters in front of him without him noticing.
Lin Yanran stopped what she was doing and immediately stood up to greet the two teachers.
"Hello, Teacher Shi, Hello, Teacher Weng, I am Yanran."
The staff immediately took over the conversation and told the two teachers that this was the star they were working with today.
Shi Lingxiao looked at the young man in front of him. After learning of his identity, the surprise in his eyes instantly turned into astonishment.
Her surprise was not because of how amazing Lin Yanran's playing was.
After all, a master of her level must have heard all kinds of exquisite piano music.
She was surprised because she didn't expect that this extremely skillful and well-founded melody would be played by the young star who was working with them.
In fact, at the beginning, when the program team asked them to perform with a popular star, she felt a little uncomfortable.
It’s not that she looks down on celebrities.
The truth is that they have had similar collaborative performances before, but the results were really bad.
Many fans of celebrities brag about them, saying that they have been learning since childhood and have a good foundation and good skills.
When she didn't know it at first, she believed it.
When they actually started playing together, they found that their performance was just very average, some of it could even be described as poor.
So in fact, he has to work with those celebrities again this time, although the program crew has assured him again and again that the other party is absolutely reliable.
But she still felt vaguely worried.
But after listening to what he just said, her impression of the star in front of her changed instantly.
After everyone arrived, the director came out and had a brief conversation with everyone, and then the three of them followed the director's instructions and went to their respective positions.
Weng Yancai and Shi Lingxiao both brought their own usual musical instruments and did not use those from the program team.
Of course the production crew didn’t dare to say anything and could only smile and let them do whatever they wanted.
Before starting the music ensemble, Lin Yanran smiled apologetically at the two teachers and said, "I'm about to make a fool of myself. I hope you will give me more guidance and forgive me."
Shi Lingxiao encouraged him with a smile, "It's okay, just relax, you played it very well just now, just follow that."
The attitude is very approachable.
After a harmonious conversation, music started.
The three of them had their first ensemble performance together.
Because they had all practiced separately before and had never worked together, the production team thought there would be a lot of problems the first time.
The result was amazing. All three of them acted like they were very experienced and they did it smoothly in one go. The effect was much better than expected.
Even Lin Yanran, who the director had always been most worried about, cooperated very well with the teachers and was not completely crushed by the two teachers.
After the satisfied director told them some of their respective problems, the three of them continued to work together a few more times.
All three of them came well prepared, and after noticing some issues with the accompaniment, the results naturally became better and better.
Originally, the staff of the program crew were prepared to work overtime today, but unexpectedly, they left work early.
After the rehearsal, Shi Lingxiao and Lin Yanran got off the elevator together.
She looked at the young man in front of her gently and praised, "Your guzheng skills are pretty good."
Lin Yanran smiled lightly, "I studied it for a while before."
Shi Lingxiao's lips curled up slightly, and he also laughed, "I must have learned a lot of Qin Hanmo's music scores when I was practicing before."
When Shi Lingxiao saw Lin Yanran playing the guzheng for the first time, he found that his technique was very similar to Qin Hanmo's.
I have to say that this master's eyes are quite cruel.
When his grandmother asked him to learn guzheng, she did let him learn from Qin Hanmo.
At that time, Qin Hanmo was not as famous as he is now.
But now it has become one of the best.
It must be said that his grandmother had a very sharp eye when it came to appreciating music.
No matter if it was Cao Zhengpeng more than ten years ago, or Qin Hanmo who was just starting out at that time, grandma discovered their brilliance when they were still rough diamonds, and asserted that they would each make great achievements in the future.
After the three of them went downstairs, Lin Yanran asked for the two teachers' WeChat addresses, added them respectively, and then went their separate ways.
Weng Yancai is a relatively self-centered artist who is quiet and focused on his creation.
But Shi Lingxiao is an extrovert and loves to share her life.
She felt very comfortable working with Lin Yanran today, so after returning home, she immediately posted a few photos of the three of them on her WeChat Moments.
Shi Lingxiao: Mr. Weng is still as skilled as ever! Young people are formidable! After working with a very talented young man today, I feel like I have become younger too.
Shi Lingxiao has a wide circle of friends. As soon as she posted her circle of friends, she received dozens of likes.
Kang Huixian, who had just finished class, sat in her office, took out her mobile phone and opened her circle of friends. The first thing she saw was the photo posted by Shi Lingxiao.
Two years ago, their department invited Shi Lingxiao to give lectures at the school, and they added each other on WeChat at that time.
Although we are all busy and don’t contact each other much, the friendship still exists through occasional gatherings, liking posts on WeChat Moments, and bargain hunting on Pinduoduo.
She smiled, glanced at the text, and gave the other party a thumbs up.
When she saw this post on WeChat Moments, her attention was on the text, so she didn't open the picture to take a closer look.
However, after clicking the "like" button, her hand accidentally touched the phone screen.
Then the picture in the lower right corner was opened and appeared in the center of the screen.
Now that the pictures are open, there is no reason not to look at them.
Kang Huixian held the phone a little further away and found that the young man standing next to Shi Lingxiao looked somewhat familiar.
Kang Huixian couldn't remember who the other person was for a moment, but she didn't make it difficult for herself and directly sent a comment to Shi Lingxiao.
Kang Huixian: This young man looks familiar
The other party replied to her immediately.
Shi Lingxiao: Do you know Yan Ran too? A kid who is very good at playing the guzheng
When Kang Huixian saw the name Yanran, she was very sure that she had seen it before. She vaguely remembered that she looked like a star.
A student happened to come to her office at this time, so she handed her phone to the student and asked, "Do you know Yanran?"
When the student heard the name, he nodded excitedly, "I know! Yanran is very popular recently! He plays the guzheng for foreigners abroad. Didn't our department make a video of someone imitating him playing the guzheng the day before yesterday?"
After hearing the student's description, Kang Huixian felt something was not right, but she had indeed heard other teachers talk about such a young man who played the guzheng.
She smiled faintly, "It turned out to be him!"
When the student was helping Kang Huixian identify people, he also saw Shi Lingxiao, so he asked, "Teacher Kang, why is Yanran with Teacher Shi? Are they going to collaborate on a new piece of music?"
"I'm not sure either, let me ask."
Kang Huixian clicked on the comment section.
She and Shi Lingxiao have many mutual friends.
She didn't even have to ask, as other people would ask these questions for her.
Only after seeing Shi Lingxiao's reply to the other party did she realize that they were going to be on a show.
Shi Lingxiao: It is "National Treasures of History". The program starts recording at 7 o'clock on Friday night, and I play "Shuilongyin" with the old man.
Shi Lingxiao: It will be in the No. 3 recording room of Grape TV. Friends who want to come can tell me and I will get you tickets. Everyone is welcome~
After reading it, Kang Huixian turned off her phone.
After returning home in the evening, she first organized tomorrow's classes, and then took out the foot bath bucket and started soaking her feet.
She was a little tired after classes today, so she closed her eyes and rested while soaking her feet.
As a result, just as I closed my eyes and rested for a while, an advertisement suddenly came to my mind.
When she recommended a foot bath bucket to her daughter, the one mentioned in the advertisement was the same model as Yanran’s!
No wonder she felt the name was familiar.
It turns out that the guy who worked with Shi Lingxiao was this guy!
She knew Shi Lingxiao.
On the surface, he seems gentle and kind, but in fact, he is very picky about people.
Of course, this pickyness is not a derogatory term, it refers to her music.
If she thinks you are not professional enough, she won't want to have a close relationship with you.
So today, for the first time ever, she praised a young man in her circle of friends, which must mean she was very satisfied with their cooperation.
When Kang Huixian thought of this, she couldn't help but become curious about this person.
A young person who likes health preservation and guzheng at such a young age, she is really too curious.
So she picked up her phone, reopened her Moments, and found the post that Shi Lingxiao had posted in the evening.
Follow up with a reply to the comment where she said to leave a ticket.
Kang Huixian: Leave a ticket for me too
Shi Lingxiao immediately replied to her: Okay, Teacher Kang!
The coordination here was very pleasant, and Lin Yanran's new team also announced the itinerary to the fans.
Fans were very excited when they found out that Lin Yanran was actually going to record this show.
After all, for them, there will be new videos to watch soon.
So everyone counted down the days and finally the happy Friday came.
