Time flies, and two days have passed in the blink of an eye.
Lu Yuan has been very busy these two days.
During the day, he and everyone else worked hard on filming "A Chinese Odyssey", and at night, he and Hu Wei kept thinking about the "Small Knife Society Overture", trying to finish the song as soon as possible...
All right!
Although he said he was thinking about it, in fact, Lu Yuan was the only one who was thinking about and modifying it, striving for perfection.
As for Mr. Hu Wei...
A master of folk music has indeed become Lu Yuan's assistant.
I was responsible for playing the music written by Lu Yuan, and at the same time helping Lu Yuan to revise it...
Who would believe this if I told others?
Even Hu Wei himself couldn't believe that he would actually do these things one day.
Lu Yuan was very happy.
Very happy.
He felt like he had really found a treasure!
Whether it's drums, erhu, pipa...
The main thing is that Hu Wei can play all the musical instruments Lu Yuan needs.
He is almost omnipotent. Not only does he know how to play, but Hu Wei has also done in-depth research on the concepts behind musical instruments. Lu Yuan would ask Hu Wei for help when he had questions about arranging, and Hu Wei was very patient and explained them to Lu Yuan one by one.
It's no use for him to have no patience. After all, there is no other entertainment in this place. Every day when he goes out, he sees either yellow sand or endless sand castles. What else can you ask him to do?
Of course, Hu Wei didn't feel uncomfortable staying here.
On the contrary, he felt it was very quiet here.
There were neither those messy students visiting me nor other people in the industry inviting me to participate in various activities.
It can be said that I have stolen a moment of leisure from my busy life.
How to describe Lu Yuan? Hu Wei felt that although Lu Yuan was an outlier, he was also a young man worthy of respect.
Yes!
Respect.
He originally thought that the interview with Lu Yuan that was exposed in his office was just a gimmick and was specially arranged, but when he actually came into contact with Lu Yuan, he found that these were all true, and many parts were even more incredible than the previous exposure.
Logically speaking, Lu Yuan is worth hundreds of millions now, and he is still so young and talented...
It's normal to be a little vain, right? It's normal to be a little boastful, right? It's even normal to be arrogant, right?
But……
Lu Yuan always has a smiling face when facing anyone. In the crew, no matter he is dealing with low-level extras or leading actresses like An Xiao, Lu Yuan's attitude is exactly the same. Even when Lu Yuan is walking around the crew after filming a movie, you can't tell that Lu Yuan is a director but instead think he is just a handyman.
Except for the first day he met her, when he was wearing a neat suit and glasses and looked gentle, the rest of the time Lu Yuan wore ordinary clothes and looked very ordinary.
The place to live is also very ordinary.
Basically, a director like Lu Yuan doesn't live in a five-star hotel like other directors. He is always accompanied by a group of followers...
Lu Yuan lived in exactly the same conditions as these extras, the only thing that was perhaps a little better was that his room was a little bigger...
Likewise, let alone food, three meals a day are all boxed lunches, and these boxed lunches are also provided by Lu Yuan himself, and the price is five yuan per box...
All these things combined made Hu Wei feel awe-inspiring.
He became famous at a young age and was extremely talented, but he always lived a low-key and simple life.
Isn’t such a person worthy of respect?
Many times, respect has nothing to do with age.
Compared with other crews, and students from other schools...
At this moment, Hu Wei shook his head. He felt that the gap was really too big.
Two days later, in the evening, when Hu Wei finished playing the last drum note, the complete score of "Small Knife Society Overture" was truly completed...
“This piece may become a classic in the future!”
Hu Wei breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Lu Yuan with complicated eyes.
He praised this sentence sincerely.
This sentence is sincere.
“Phew, that’s great!”
Lu Yuan looked at the complete score with satisfaction.
At this moment, he really felt a sense of accomplishment. Although it was plagiarism, compared to plagiarizing, Lu Yuan felt that he had a greater sense of accomplishment!
Yes!
During these two days, his musical level has improved a bit, and he has also become more sensitive...
"Can you play the song "Butterfly Lovers" for me now?"
The moonlight at night shines through the window, and the lights inside the house are very bright.
Hu Wei looked at Lu Yuan. He had not forgotten the purpose of his visit.
Yes, for two whole days, he wanted to ask about "Butterfly Lovers" several times, but when he saw Lu Yuan busy, he held it back.
"yes!"
Next to him, Niu Shuang, who seemed a little tired, suddenly widened his eyes!
He quickly walked over and nodded, looking quite excited.
He was indeed excited.
Two days!
He originally thought that he would listen to the music, buy the music and leave...
but……
Plans can't keep up with changes, and the situation of Lu Yuan and Hu Wei working together made him speechless...
He could only accompany these two people.
What does Lu Yuan say?
This stuff is a rip off.
On the first day, he enthusiastically pulled me into his crew, saying that he hoped I could give them some pointers. He was very sincere, which touched Director Niu Shuang greatly. But in reality...
He, a big director, served as Lu Yuan's crew manager for two days, and Lu Yuan was responsible for all the big and small matters in the crew that he could get away with.
Can we still play like this?
Niu Shuang is also a kind person.
If it were any other director, he would have left without saying a word, but Niu Shuang is not any other director.
Although she was speechless, Niu Shuang felt that it would be of no harm to her to have a good relationship with Lu Yuan. Moreover, with Lu Yuan's current ability in composing music, Niu Shuang felt that she would definitely be able to benefit from it in the future...
So he was forced to become a member of the crew of "A Chinese Odyssey" for two days.
and……
The kind without salary.
After all, how could he ask Lu Yuan for his salary? And with his status, it would be difficult for him to ask for it, right?
"Well, okay..."
Lu Yuan nodded and smiled.
Then he sat down quietly, picked up the erhu and played the familiar "Butterfly Lovers".
The room fell silent.
There was only the sound of Lu Yuan playing the erhu.
Hu Wei closed his eyes. He found that the "Butterfly Lovers" played by Lu Yuan was comparable to his own version of "Butterfly Lovers". In fact, it was more flavorful than the "Butterfly Lovers" he created. In comparison, the artistic conception was even stronger than his own.
As for Niu Shuang, his eyes were shining!
Yes!
He suddenly felt that it was all worth it!
It was worth it no matter how busy he was. He was even secretly glad that he had helped Lu Yuan's crew as the general manager for two days...
This erhu piece not only adds a lot of color to the TV series, but also generates a lot of popularity.
These are totally fine.
The song ends.
Lu Yuan looked at the two of them.
Niu Shuang clapped his hands and was very excited.
Hu Wei sighed, his eyes were quite complicated, and he always felt that the waves behind were pushing the waves ahead...
wrong!
The back wave rushed up to the sky, swallowing up the front wave completely, leaving nothing behind...
"Mr. Lu, we want this piece of music, The Butterfly Lovers!"
"No problem, Director Niu. In terms of the contract, our 'remote' relationship has always been..."
"I know the rules. Should I sign your contract?"
"Um."
"Can!"
Niu Shuang was very straightforward. When Wu Tingting got the contract that had been prepared in advance, Niu Shuang took a quick look at it and signed her name.
There is no intention of bargaining at all.
He is a smart man.
I had already checked Lu Yuan's information when I met him.
Even Hollywood director James has to sign a contract with Lu Yuan's company, let alone others.
That's the rule.
He understands the rules, and he thinks that if he follows the rules and cooperates once, he will be more familiar with it the second time.
Lu Yuan felt Director Niu's sincerity and was immediately moved. He couldn't help but want to make a cup of tea for Director Niu...
But thinking about my own tea is a bit...
Ahem, some of that stuff.
In the end, he chose to give up.
After signing the contract and completing the transaction, Niu Shuang smiled happily, feeling that the mission was finally accomplished...
"Mr. Lu...I hope we can continue to cooperate in the future!"
"Of course, of course!"
Now that the contract was signed, Niu Shuang stood up and prepared to say goodbye to Lu Yuan.
He planned to go back overnight.
Naturally, Lu Yuan tried very hard to keep him.
but……
Niu Shuang really wanted to leave.
In the end, the two men shook hands and smiled at each other more brightly, as if they had completed a private PY transaction that everyone understood.
"Xiao Lu, since you have completed "Overture to the Small Knife Society", you have to promise me and come with me to Yanjing. It won't take you long, just one day..." After shaking hands, Hu Wei stood up and touched his gray beard.
He was laughing too.
After the end of "Prelude to the Small Knife Society", he had finally completed what he had promised Lu Yuan.
After listening to "Butterfly Lovers" just now, Hu Wei's desire to ask Lu Yuan to go to Yenching University to give a lecture together became stronger.
He looked at Lu Yuan.
Very serious.
only……
"That... Mr. Hu... that..."
"What? Don't say you want to regret it..."
"No, no, no... Mr. Hu, how could I go back on my word? I'm not that kind of person... I, Lu Yuan, always do what I promised..."
"So what you mean is..." Hu Wei was immediately surprised when he saw the embarrassment and hesitation on Lu Yuan's face.
What is this guy planning?
"Well, actually, it's like this. I've been thinking about a new score these past two days. This score is more difficult than the "Small Knife Society Overture". There are many mixed instruments in it..." Under the gazes of Niu Shuang and Hu Wei who seemed to have seen a ghost, Lu Yuan walked into the office and took out a few scores...
Hu Wei looked at the music score.
I discovered that the name of this song is "I Am the Only One in the World"!
The score was not difficult, but the instruments used in it made Hu Wei a little confused...
He thought he might have a heart problem.
He was suffocating.
Electronic mix, plus traditional instruments...
this……
Under the light, Lu Yuan smiled innocently.
Looks very pure...
Like a...
A shy young man who just graduated from college.
"Actually... this song was very shocking when it came out... especially the drum sound at the beginning..."
“…”
"Half a month... I can make it in half a month... Um... Mr. Hu... don't you have a favorite disciple? How about... let them travel to Ningxia or something... I'll be their guide, provide food and accommodation... Don't worry about the rest, they will definitely not suffer any grievances..."
“…”
What?
It’s bad enough that you’ve been tormenting me, but now you’re targeting my disciples?
Hu Wei glared at Lu Yuan!
Take a deep breath!
This person...
this……
You, Lu Yuan, are a person of status after all...
you……
Can you please have some shame?
