Chapter 487 Three Ancients and Three New Things
When they returned to the courtyard, it was already completely dark. Lin Fan and Jiang Yuhe were fine, they just sweated a lot, and they just needed to clean up a little.
Yi Xiaobo and Daniu were not in such a good condition. The man and the dog put on a big show in the field, and they were all in a mess. Lin Fan directly asked Yi Xiaobo to take Daniu to take a bath, and he went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Jiang Yuhe washed his hands and feet and came in to help. Lin Fan gave him the task of washing the vegetables: "Brother He, just help me wash these vegetables."
"no problem!"
Jiang Yuhe went to wash the vegetables, and Lin Fan began to prepare dinner. He first cooked a pot of white rice, then blanched the ribs and made braised ribs, boiled pork slices, and stir-fried pork with peppers. After all, there were three grown men, so how could a meal be without meat? In addition, there was an oven at home, so Lin Fan also baked a portion of pepper-flavored grilled wings and cumin squid, and the meat was ready. The vegetarian dishes were simple, one spicy and sour potato shreds, one stir-fried beans, and one cold onion and black fungus. Perfect!
When Yi Xiaobo came to the kitchen with the washed and dried beef, Lin Fan had already prepared a large table of dishes. Looking at the sumptuous dinner, Yi Xiaobo's face was filled with more than a dozen wrinkles: "Oh, Brother Fan, your dishes really touched my heart! They are all my favorite dishes!"
Lin Fan washed his hands and served the food: "Let's go, take the food to the garden!"
"Okay!"
The three of them brought out the food, and Daniu also ran over with his rice bowl to get on the table, but Lin Fan tried to dissuade him earnestly, "Daniu, you really can't have any more food. Look at how fat you have become."
Da Niu didn't care. He put the food bowl in front of him, then aimed at Jiang Yuhe, the most talkative one among the three. He ran over and started rubbing and digging at him, humming all kinds of things. Unfortunately, because he looked too funny, he didn't look cute at all.
Yi Xiaobo suffered a great loss at the hands of Daniu today, so he naturally did not want to miss this opportunity, and teased him, "Daniu, it is my brother who does not allow you to eat more. How about this, you give me a call, and if my brother agrees, then we will give you an extra meal, how about that?"
Daniu turned around and looked at Yi Xiaobo in disbelief. Lin Fan felt that if Daniu could speak, he would definitely want to say: How can you be more dog-like than a real dog like me?
But no matter what, Yi Xiaobo finally won a game, and he even ate an extra bowl of rice to reward himself. Not only that, after finishing the meal, Yi Xiaobo flirted with Da Niu: "Oh, Da Niu, I'm so full, it's a pity that you can't eat, otherwise you can share this happy burden with me."
The big bull was so angry that he rushed up and started paddling like a dog.
Amid Yi Xiaobo's wailing, Jiang Yuhe talked to Lin Fan about composing music for ancient poetry.
"This has various meanings when you talk about it, such as promoting traditional culture and helping Chinese people better learn and appreciate ancient poetry... But when you actually do it, you will find that it lacks a key factor."
Doesn't sound good.
The ancient poems that have been passed down to this day are all classics, and some can even be called classics handed down from generation to generation. These poems themselves are widely circulated and have beautiful rhythms, which makes some of the tunes composed for them by later generations unworthy of these classic poems.
There is a feeling of forcibly grafting them together, which neither gives these poems a new charm nor wins public recognition. Naturally, it is difficult to make any progress.
Occasionally one or two good songs would be composed, but they would only be popular for a short while before being drowned out by other musical forms and gradually fade into obscurity, failing to form a trend.
In response, Lin Fan said: "Why not change the model?"
"I have tried many methods, such as incorporating ancient poetry into the lyrics, using more traditional instruments to compose the music, or simply doing the opposite, using more modern pop melodies and Western instruments to compose the music, but I always feel that something is missing."
Jiang Yuhe has tried many methods and produced some decent works, but the final results did not satisfy him.
Lin Fan considered: "I think that since it is our own traditional culture of China, the first thing to emphasize should be the indispensable Chinese elements, such as the palace-style main melody, the use of traditional musical instruments, the use of ancient poems or legends as themes, etc."
These are what Jiang Yuhe is doing, so Lin Fan didn't elaborate.
Jiang Yuhe nodded to show his understanding: "Then?"
Then comes the key point.
"The above three characteristics are met, I call them ancient poetry, ancient culture, and ancient melody." Lin Fan paused and looked at Jiang Yuhe who was listening attentively, "Then, I think there should be three new elements, new singing method, new arrangement, and new concept.
The lyrics have traditional cultural connotations, and use new singing and arrangement techniques to set off the atmosphere of the song. The song combines a nostalgic background with a modern rhythm, combining three ancient and three new elements, and the new style formed is more in line with the standards you want to achieve, Brother He."
Jiang Yuhe felt that Lin Fan's words were like a bolt of thunder, exploding in his mind. All the problems that he couldn't figure out or get around in the past seemed to be solved at this moment!
"Yes! Yes, yes, that's right. I've always been immersed in retro styles, or trying to apply ancient poetry to modern melodies, but the effect is always a little bit off, and I can't figure out what's wrong!"
Jiang Yuhe grabbed Lin Fan's arm and looked at him with burning eyes: "But after what you said, I seem to know what to do! I seem to know where the direction is! Lin Fan, I didn't expect that you have done such in-depth research in this field!
The point is that you told me such an important thing, how can I thank you? How can you be so smart? "
Seeing Jiang Yuhe tending towards a state of madness, Lin Fan quickly interrupted him: "Brother He, Brother He! Calm down!"
"I can't calm down! I finally know what to do! Yes, that's it, I know how to write this song, um, I have a melody in my mind! No, I have to write this melody down quickly!"
As Jiang Yuhe spoke, he was immersed in his own musical world. People who didn't know him would think there was something wrong with his brain.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Lin Fan didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he watched Jiang Yuhe mutter to himself and dance with his hands, as if there was an invisible instrument being played in the air. He stood up and rushed towards the room, almost knocking over Yi Xiaobo who was having a great time with Daniu.
"Brother He, what happened?" Yi Xiaobo felt that he had missed some important moment, but he didn't know what exactly he had missed.
Lin Fan spread his hands: "Maybe inspiration came?"
"oh……"
Before he could finish his words, he saw Jiang Yuhe running over again. He stood in front of Lin Fan, looking a little frightened with excitement. He stared at Lin Fan without blinking, which made Lin Fan feel uneasy: "Brother He?"
Am I really going crazy because of what I said?
Jiang Yuhe didn't care, staring at Lin Fan with his eyes fixed: "Since you have already summed up the standard of three ancient and three new, then you must have some experimental songs, right? Can you let me listen to them? I promise that I will never leak them. I can sign a confidentiality contract with you!"
In Jiang Yuhe's opinion, to summarize such a detailed and precise standard, Lin Fan must have verified it through a large number of experimental works. I don't know whether Lin Fan has made the final product. Jiang Yuhe is not greedy, it would be fine to be able to listen to the experimental work once!
Even signing a confidentiality agreement and promising not to publish similar works before Lin Fan made the final product was enough! Jiang Yuhe felt that this was a thank you to Lin Fan for telling him that standard without reservation.
only.
Lin Fan was helpless: "Brother He, really not!"
