Chapter 87 Sun Monkey and Tathagata Buddha (Part 1)
Also on December 23rd.
The location is northwest, Shanxi Province, Yan. Anfu An. Sai County.
During the first tense rehearsal of the New Year's Eve Song Concert, in a small hotel in this backward, even barren county town, Liao Liao was wearing a thick down jacket, but he still wanted to Covered in the bed, this can barely prevent myself from being frozen.
Outside the window, the wind that is more empty than empty is whistling recklessly on the empty plateau.
The small coal-burning stove in the room brought a little bit of warmth, but compared to the cold wind sweeping outside, that little bit of heat could only be said to be better than nothing.
I thought that the Northeast was already cold enough. As a child who grew up in the Northeast, how could Liao Liao feel afraid of the cold? But when she really came here, she discovered that the so-called coldness on Liao Ning's side, because of the blessing of the heated kang in the house, was not enough in the face of the coldness that came from the sky in the northwest. look!
But even so, even though Liao Liao was so cold that he could only wrap himself in the quilt and half lean on the head of the bed, the pen in his hand never stopped for a moment, he just kept writing and scribbling in the notebook in his hand, even from time to time I would tear off a sheet with a snort, crumple it up and throw it away, and then continue writing.
Yes, she is writing songs.
After returning to Shuntianfu in mid-September, she only took a short break for a few days before returning to her intense work. She promised that the company would record a new song for the commemorative edition of the sales volume, including MVs of several popular songs. To be filmed, the covers of several magazines that the company has promised to be filmed must be filmed, the interviews and publicity that should be done must be done to several, and the promised programs must be on two, and then, still There are advertising endorsements, various activities...
The sales volume of the album has been maintained well, and it belongs to the kind that can continue to be sold. It is hard to say if it is too much. It is already confirmed that the problem is not a big problem. Moreover, the endorsement fee of the advertisement that the company helped her accept is not low. Her this year's The income will definitely be quite good, but she feels that she is so busy every day that it is meaningless...
Fortunately, after entering November, the things that should be busy have basically come to an end. Under Huang Wenjuan's arrangement, she finally has no announcements and can concentrate on doing what she wants to do.
So, she first rested at her home in Shuntian Mansion for a few days, then moved to a new house under the arrangement of the company, and then she really calmed down.
However, after staying at home for more than ten days, she found that she couldn't find the idea to create a new song for a long time, so she simply went back to her hometown alone for half a month. It's just... oh, oh, it's annoying anyway, my dad actually asked me to be an endorsement for his restaurant, and my mother is very concerned about how I can find a boyfriend now that I am so famous.
And the old girl... Well, she asked Liao Liao to stand up, took a camera to take a picture of her, took a roll of film, and then the dead girl took the film to develop and print a few sets of photos, beautiful It was called "Liao Liao Photobook Limited Edition", and they sold it for 500 yuan from their school, earning thousands of dollars! Well, after the incident was leaked, not only was all the money confiscated by my mother, she was also beaten to death!
As for the younger brother... that stinky boy with a snotty nose finally found out, it turns out that it is much easier to get pocket money from his sister than from his mother... Huh!
On the twelfth day of his stay, Liao Liao finally couldn't stand his mother's nagging, so he ran away and returned to Shuntian Mansion.
However, Shuntianfu is not a good place to write songs due to the frequent traffic and the flow of people. So, after being invited by friends to perform a few performances in several famous bars, she left there again.
This time, her goal is the Great Northwest.
The beauty of the Qinling Mountains, the greasy mutton steamed buns, the high-pitched and heroic Qin Opera, the endless hillsides in the northwest, and... yes, the excitement of the Ansai Waist Drum!
She was alone, took a very simple travel bag, and wrapped herself tightly all the way. It took more than half a month, although aimlessly but with great interest, she turned and looked at SHANXI again, Finally, it stopped in the small county town of An Sai.
This place is very poor and backward. Although there are audio-visual stores in the streets and alleys, and "My Hometown I'm Passionately Loved" is playing through loudspeakers, no one knows who Liao Liao is.
So, Liao Liao found a small hotel to live in, and stayed here for more than ten days.
The customs here, the cave dwellings here, and the sour tunes here all made her very happy.
Then, a few days ago, Huang Wenjuan called. She knew that the time was almost up, and it was time for her to go to Songjiang to participate in the rehearsal of the New Year's Eve Song Concert. But... just two days before leaving, I was not only stimulated by something, but also accumulated enough. In short, the inspiration came suddenly.
So, in the past two days, except for eating, she hardly ever went out of the house. Every day, she was just bored in the room, writing, writing, and humming. The big notebook she carried with her had been used for more than half of it even writing and tearing it up!
"I want to be a hero too!"
She's not just talking about this!
It is said that she is popular now, so there is no need to say more when she is busy. Once she is free, she should definitely go to Jinan Mansion, not to mention her mentor, at least for Li Qian, she used five songs to kill her in one fell swoop. She should go over and thank those who are popular, and in fact, Huang Wenjuan has repeatedly persuaded her to do so.
However, she didn't go.
It's not that she thinks she shouldn't thank Li Qian, or that she doesn't want to go, but that she wants to wait until she can produce a decent work before bringing her own work.
"Hey, hey, kid... Okay, Mr. Li, help me see how this song is written?"
"Really? Wow, is it as good as you said? Uh... So, I can also be regarded as a singer-songwriter?"
Look, how cool it is!
Well, in fact, in the past few days, she has indeed written a lot of works in one go, although after the last song, she thinks that the one who can really show Li Qian is probably the last one. That one is good, but the one that is lingering in her mind right now is definitely better, it's just... She always feels that she can't grasp it for a while!
Worry, worry, worry...
But I just can't catch it!
Raising her wrist to check the time, she sighed helplessly: It's really time to leave this time!
According to Huang Wenjuan, there will be the first rehearsal for the New Year's Eve song meeting on the 23rd, which is today. People at her level are very polite and just say that they don't come for the first time, and they just need to reserve their seats. But However, from the second rehearsal on the 25th to the next two recordings, she had to participate every time. It's not impossible to be special, but if there are no special circumstances, it will get a bad reputation.
And even if we set off today, it is estimated that we will be able to arrive at Yan'an Mansion in the evening, and then, Yan'an Mansion does not have a train, so if we want to go to Chang'an Mansion by plane, we will have to take a rickety long-distance bus for a day...
Finally, she grabbed the notebook and turned a few pages back and forth, frowned and thought hard for a moment, making sure that she really couldn't grasp that feeling, then sighed, got up resolutely, put on her clothes and began to pack her things.
She had to leave already.
... ... ...
Two days later, at 10:30 in the morning, at Songjiang Airport.
Seeing Liao Liao coming out of the airport passageway, Huang Wenjuan quickly jumped up and shook her arms. Liao Liao wore a big scarf around her, lowered her head and glanced this way, and then walked over in a low-key manner... I don't know if it was her. After two months of playing with disappearing relationships, the reporters who have been squatting at the exit of the airport for the past few days, waiting to capture the stars who came to the New Year's Day song party, unexpectedly didn't see her.
The two met, walked out very carefully, and waited until they got into the business car arranged by the company to pick them up. Then she let go of the scarf and showed her face, but excitedly took out the bag from the small bag she was carrying. The notebook came and asked Huang Wenjuan, "Did you bring the guitar that I asked you to bring?"
Huang Wenjuan reluctantly took the guitar from the third row of seats, and couldn't help but say, "Sister, you've been driving for two days, you should take a rest first, when we arrive at the TV station, the second rehearsal will probably be over." It’s started, and it won’t last long.”
Liao Liao smiled, but still took the guitar, spread out his notebook on his knees, then simply tuned the strings, and started playing—on the long-distance bus from Yan Anfu to Chang'an Mansion, Looking at the wild Loess Plateau, she suddenly found that inspiration, and then, along the way, a masterpiece that made her extremely proud was born!
Well, it's still a bit early to say a masterpiece... But this song is definitely the best work of Liao Liao's songwriting career in the past few years, and there is no doubt about it!
The driver is a native of Shanghai County, Songjiang Prefecture, and he is very familiar with the roads. Although the car nimbly weaves through the traffic, the body has always remained stable, so that Liao Liao's movements of playing the guitar will not be affected in the slightest.
After playing it once, Liao Liao was very proud of himself, so he turned to look at his assistant and asked, "How is it?"
Huang Wenjuan blinked and asked, "New song?"
Liao Liao nodded, and said triumphantly: "I didn't hold back for several days in Yan An's mansion, but I got inspiration on the way to Chang'an mansion, took a car all the way, and finished it... How does it feel? "
Huang Wenjuan nodded quickly, "Sounds good, should this be the same as "Wild Flowers"?"
Liao Liao glanced at her in surprise when she heard the words, "Yo, okay, you! Not bad, you have learned to analyze this! But, um, well, it is indeed very close to "Perseverance" and "Wild Flowers". It’s light rock, a little folk.”
Speaking of this, she glanced forward mysteriously and found that the driver was concentrating on driving, so she leaned over and said in a low voice: "You say, if I go to Jinan, I will pia this song and send this song to Li Qian." Put it in front of you, tell me, how will he react?"
With the popularity of Liao Liao, Huang Wenjuan has been working hard to learn some music knowledge recently, but what she has learned in a few months of make-up classes is really not enough to judge the quality of a song, so at this time, she He blinked and said, "Will he... be surprised?"
Well, she is still very skilled at flattering!
Sure enough, Liao Liao smiled smugly.
Tapping the notebook on her knee, she said confidently: "After seeing this song, I may not be able to be a hero in front of him, but at least when I see his two big notebook songs again, I won't be so Feel inferior!"
After thinking about it, she said again: "Well, it's best to surprise him a little bit, and compliment me sincerely, then it will be perfect, haha!"
... ... ...
Oriental Star TV station, preparation room.
Liao Liao came here in a hurry, and didn't have time to meet the leaders of the director team. He just said hello to them first, saying that Liao Liao had arrived, and he would listen to the greetings at any time, and then hurried to the preparation room assigned to her. Groom, make up, style.
During the rehearsal, in fact, she didn't have to do any styling, after all, it wasn't a real recording, but with Liao Liao's temperament, since she was here, she naturally didn't want to put on those unnecessary airs, so she stayed in the room honestly. Let the stylist fiddle with it.
The styling was good enough, Huang Wenjuan came in from the outside holding a few pieces of paper, with a strange and tangled expression on her face, she glanced at the stylist, but she still couldn't hold back, and said, "Sister, Li Qian helped Huage Records some time ago. I told you on the phone about the group that made a record, right?"
Liao Liao turned his head in puzzlement and nodded, "I told you, what's the matter? What's so rare about this?"
Huang Wenjuan handed over a few pieces of paper in her hand, and said, "That group is called Wu Xing Wu Su, and they also came to the party. This is the new program list just given by the program group. Look, they are actually the opening song! And this The song is actually called "Farewell"!"
Liao Liao took a look in bewilderment, and sure enough, the work at the top of the opening line was called "Farewell".
To be honest, Liao Liao was also a little puzzled.
No matter how good the song is, if your name is "Farewell", it's okay to put it at the back, or in the middle, and put it at the beginning... It's a farewell when you come up, can't you hold a party later?
"It's really Li Qian's work. Could it be that the director team thinks this song is great? That's why they pulled it to the front to suppress the scene?"
Liao Liao whispered there, but Huang Wenjuan quickly said: "The problem is that they don't just have this one. You can turn to the back. At 9:30, prime time, they have two more. I asked about it. It is said that during the rehearsal last time, the response to their two songs was very good, so they adjusted the time and added another opening song!"
Just at this time the stylist finished the styling, Liao Liao turned a page back, and sure enough, on the second page, he saw the two songs "Sisters and Sisters Stand Up" and "Broken Love Front Alliance".
Of course, the singers are all five elements and my elements, and the lyrics, music and arrangement are also Li Qian.
Suddenly her heart moved, she stood up, and said, "Come on, let's listen to it! See what a wonderful song Li Qian wrote for them, so that the director team can actually put a song called "Farewell" together." Let's start!"
