Chapter 23 (1/2)
The time soon reached twenty-two o'clock sharp. All the preparatory work has been completed, and the audience sat down after getting the autograph.
The live director called out, ”go.”
”Thank you for locking in CCTV and watching our art life interview program. The CCTV drama ”Emperor Kangxi” will be premiered in prime time tomorrow evening. We are very honored to have several creators, director Chen Qingqing, Mr. Huang Peiqi, Mr. Li Xun, Mr. Xia Chengfeng, Princess Zhao Wanqing, and Xiao Yunhai, who have just met. Let's give them a big round of applause. ”
The audience below clapped their hands and applauded.
This interview program is mainly for the publicity of Emperor Kangxi, so we all told some interesting things on the spot, which made everyone laugh.
Xiao Yunhai sat there quietly and listened carefully. Twenty minutes later, the topic finally came to the theme song of Emperor Kangxi.
”Director Chen, I heard that you have published a news report of 400000 campaign songs on the Internet, creating a record.”
”That's right. In the end, Yunhai was forced to go. Not 400000, but 800000. I had already selected the final song, but who would have thought that the song he produced was so good, he could only use his forehead. So the two songs are 800000
”I'd like to ask, Xiao. I heard that you are a student of Yanjing Film Academy, and Zhao Wanqing is still a classmate. Who taught your music? How did you write such a magnificent song
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: ”my mother is a music teacher, and my father is a Chinese teacher. Since I was young, I have studied under their influence. It is a small success. Later, I became interested in film and got into Yanjing Film Academy. ”
Next to Zhao Wanqing interposed: ”wait a minute, I'll interject. Xiao Yunhai was the number one student in the college entrance examination in southern Henan Province in those years. At that time, he caused a great sensation in our college.”
”Wow.” The audience at the bottom exclaimed.
”No, I didn't go to Tsinghua University and Peking University, so I applied to the film academy. It's too self willed. ”
”In my impression, in addition to the rich second generation who want to pick up girls, they are the handsome and beautiful women who don't get good grades. They have never heard of the top one in the college entrance examination entering the film school.”
”Such a big thing didn't come out at that time.”
Xiao Yunhai cast a look of gratitude to Zhao Wanqing. He knew that Zhao Wanqing was deliberately helping himself and adding luster to him, so that people could have a deeper impression on him.
Xu Jun was also very surprised to say: ”so powerful, no wonder can write such magnificent lyrics. I heard that director Chen asked you to write another song. The name of the song is ”preface to Lanting”, isn't it
”Yes, that's right.”
”I remember that the preface to Lanting was written by Wang Xizhi, a great ancient calligrapher. How did you think of writing such a song?”
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, ”I've always liked music and calligraphy since I was sensible. Since my childhood, my father asked me to copy the preface to Lanting. A few days ago, after director Chen asked me to write another new song, I had a whim. I wanted to use a modern element to interpret the preface to the Orchid Pavilion and interpret the ancient Chinese culture! So the song ”preface to Orchid Pavilion” appeared. People regard Orchid Pavilion preface as a calligraphy classic, but I regard it as a love story. ”
Xiao Yunhai's words are pure bullshit.
The song ”preface to Orchid Pavilion” was composed by Zhou Dong and Fang Wenshan in the previous generations. Zhou Dong's music and Fang Wenshan's Ci make this song an eternal classic.
At that time, Dong Zhiling's performance in the Spring Festival Gala made a deep impression on the audience.
Xu Jun said in surprise: ”I didn't expect that the preface to Orchid Pavilion is a love story in your eyes. It's really amazing. Do you want to hear it? ”
