Chapter 375 0375, From ancient times, bad movies have become divine songs (1)

Yanjing, Capital Airport.

"Goodbye, uncle and aunt."

"Xiaofeng, come to my house with Xiaoyu during the holidays."

"Then we can have a good exchange of cooking skills."

"Dad, Mom, please board the plane quickly, or we'll be late."

……

Because the competition ended during the National Day, Yunfeng accompanied Tang Yu and his family to play in Yanjing for a few days.

Xie Xiang and Tang Xiang liked Yun Feng more and more, and were reluctant to leave him at the airport.

After watching his parents enter the boarding gate, Tang Yu raised his eyes and stared at Yun Feng, saying, "You have worked so hard these past few days."

Yunfeng smiled slightly and said, "It's not hard, as long as uncle and auntie have fun."

As he spoke, he pulled up his suitcase and said, "It's almost time, let's go over there too."

Tang Yuqing hummed.

I boarded the plane to Shanghai and unexpectedly ran into an acquaintance.

in fact.

Not an acquaintance, at most someone who looks familiar.

Cai Changyin, deputy head of the jury of this year's National Piano Competition, is a famous Chinese writer and composer. He is also the middle-aged man they met at Leifeng Pagoda when they visited West Lake last time.

"We are quite compatible." After a simple greeting, Cai Changyin took the initiative to find a topic to chat and asked, "What major did you study at the Magic City Conservatory of Music?"

Yunfeng said: "Music and literature."

Tang Yu said: "Composition."

Cai Changyin's eyes flickered as he asked, "Aren't they Yan Lide and Wu Zhongyu's students?"

Yunfeng and Tang Yu both nodded.

Cai Changyin seemed to be lost in memories, with a faint smile on his face. After a moment, he said, "I have been collecting folk songs outside for the past few years. I haven't contacted these old friends for a long time. I wonder how Old Yan and Old Wu are doing now?"

It turned out that he was a friend of Yan Lide and Wu Zhongyu. Yunfeng smiled and replied, "Teacher Yan and Teacher Wu are both very nice."

Cai Changyin suddenly asked, "I remember that Lao Yan and Lao Wu both taught modern pop music. How did you end up teaching classical music?"

"This..." Tang Yu looked at Yunfeng, indicating that he should answer.

"Generally speaking, music is an art form for humans to express their emotions, but when it comes to each person, the word music has different meanings. For some people, it may be entertainment, for others, it may be a source of comfort, and for others, it may be art."

Yunfeng spoke slowly, expressing his inner thoughts, "In fact, we didn't deliberately choose a certain type of music. It doesn't matter if it's pop music or classical music. As long as it can express our inner thoughts, it's all music."

Cai Changyin did not expect that two young people in their twenties would have such an understanding of music.

He always believed that many people are biased in music and have fallacies on music-related issues. There is no such thing as praising one and criticizing the other in music. Music that pursues fame and fortune and commercial music may not necessarily be bad music. However, we should at least have awe in our hearts and make the music a little purer.

He now had a better impression of Yun Feng and Tang Yu, and even had a little more respect for them. "What do you think of the classical music industry today?"

Yunfeng: “…”

Tang Yu: “…”

This question is not easy to answer. If you give a wrong answer, you may offend people.

Cai Changyin saw their concerns and said with a smile: "You can speak freely. If the classical music industry doesn't even have this kind of tolerance, then we have lived in vain for so many years."

After hearing what he said, Yunfeng and Tang Yu briefly expressed their opinions.

Actually.

In the second decade of the new century, only four pianists and violinists succeeded in becoming household names; today, none remain.

In an age of anxiety and decline, with aging audiences, the classical music industry is utterly dependent on a small group of artists, and they are the same familiar faces no matter where you go.

There is no doubt that the threshold for appreciating and playing classical music is significantly higher than that for other forms of music. Compared with guitar, learning instruments such as piano and violin requires a greater investment of time and money. Naturally, there are fewer people who have the opportunity and conditions to come into contact with classical music for a long time.

Furthermore, there is competition from other types of music such as pop, rock, and electronic music. Moreover, the development of science and technology and society will inevitably bring about the birth of more musical forms, and the impact on classical music will only become greater and greater.

but……

It’s not that classical music is declining, it’s just that it’s becoming less and less appealing among the younger generation.

Cai Changyin also knew these problems.

If you want to change the current situation, it won’t happen overnight.

His eyes fell on Yunfeng and Tang Yu.

The situations of the two are rather special, as they are engaged in multiple industries and have a huge fan base, most of whom are in their teens and twenties. Therefore, their appearance is not as simple as injecting fresh blood into the classical music industry, but rather plays a guiding role.

Yes, good things will not disappear with time, but only when more people pay attention to them can they promote their development and progress.

To put it bluntly, artists also need to make a living. If there are no audiences, how can they make money?

"Have you created other classical music?" Yunfeng and Tang Yu didn't know that they were already regarded by Cai Changyin as the hope for promoting classical music among the younger generation.

"No."

Yunfeng and Tang Yu said in unison.

Classical music is Western music that has been created from the Middle Ages to the present day under the background of mainstream European culture. It has complex and diverse creative techniques and carries very profound connotations.

It’s not that easy to create.

To be honest, their abilities are not at that level yet.

Moreover, times have changed, and even if something is created, the taste will change accordingly.

Cai Changyin was not disappointed, but rather had expectations. He said to Yunfeng and Tang Yu, "I believe that I will hear the classical music you created in the future."

----

"Xiaoyu, congratulations."

"Congratulations to Sister Xiaoyu for winning the National Piano Competition!"

……

After returning to the apartment, Tang Yu was greeted with congratulations from his friends.

Today, everyone in their music studio is here. Xiao Tianpeng and Xu Mengwei have finished recording an outdoor variety show, and Feng Zhe has also moved in.

Celebration is of course indispensable.

After having dinner at Yipinfang, Tang Yu and others returned to the apartment, while Yunfeng came to Youxianqi Company.

"The high-profile entry of Huaxia Panda Group has brought about earth-shaking changes in the cultural industry market..." Zheng Rong recounted what happened in the past two days. "Among them, the biggest impact was on Penguin Group, which lost one-third of its market share in online comics, videos, and music, and even poached many creators."

Yunfeng was secretly shocked. The giant crocodile appeared with great momentum, and immediately asked, "What about us?"

Zheng Rong replied: "Although they acquired Lanrentingshu.com, there was not much content there to begin with, and they still relied on Luzhutingshu.com under Panda Literature, so the market share of audiobooks has not changed much."

It seems that before the falling out with Panda Chinese Network, it was still forward-looking to purchase the audio rights of highly popular and hot novels through Legend Copyright Company.

Zheng Rong handed over a folder and said, "I have selected eight literature and history teachers and professors according to your wishes."

Yunfeng waved his hand and said, "I won't look at the list. I'll just send someone to contact them directly." At present, Xianqi FM's share in the audio book market has not been taken away, but we must plan ahead and be prepared for the impact. If we wait until others make a move before thinking of a solution, it will be too late.

and so.

Yunfeng has been thinking about some projects these days.

The first step is to replicate a program on CCTV in the previous life on Earth - Lecture Room.

Focusing on the history and culture of China, eight teachers and professors of literature and history were invited to be the keynote speakers.

There is a purpose for letting Zheng Rong do the screening, hoping to find people with unique characteristics and features like Yi Zhongtian, Ji Lianhai, Kang Zhen, etc.

Yunfeng continued, "The Legend Copyright Company has bought the copyrights of some crosstalk and skits. We will ask the audio and video studio and the animation studio to make audio and animation versions."

This is the second step.

Crosstalk and sketches are like a good medicine that can relieve everyone's stress after a hard day's work and are a good companion for falling asleep.

Jung Yong nodded and said, “Okay, I’ll follow up.”

He understood the purpose of Yunfeng doing these things.

Yunfeng continued, "Add two more teams to the comics studio and animation studio. I have some good ideas that need manpower to implement."

This is the third step.

I still remember a lot of comics and animations from my previous life on Earth, and I can pick out a few for the studio to make.

Zheng Rong swallowed subconsciously and said, "Give me a week."

Yunfeng smiled and said, "Don't be so anxious. It takes a lot of time to write the entire script."

It's impossible to only give the studio a main plot of a few hundred or a few thousand words, there must at least be a detailed outline.

His writing ability is more than enough, but he still needs time to write.

After leaving Zheng Rong's office, Yunfeng went to see his apprentice Cao Mengmeng.

The comic "Spirit of Gourmet" is becoming more and more exciting. He will not interfere with the plot because the current direction is correct, unless Cao Mengmeng needs advice.

However, he pointed out some minor problems in the storyboards, blank space and text.

Before leaving, Yunfeng remembered something and asked Cao Mengmeng, "Can you handle this by yourself? I'll ask Brother Zheng to assign you an assistant."

Cao Mengmeng said in a daze: "Can, can I?"

"Of course." Yunfeng smiled and said, "I'll tell Brother Zheng later."

Cao Mengmeng said sincerely: "Thank you, Master."

Not everyone has Yunfeng’s hand speed and plug-ins, and it is too inefficient for one person to take charge of all the creations.

Moreover, the sales of the comic "Spirit of Gourmet" are quite good. If you put it on other comic websites, it basically tops the charts. Not to mention adding an assistant, even a team can do it.

All walks of life are developing rapidly, and there are endless film and television works for people to choose from.

These can be divided into original works, adapted works and remakes.

Adapted works have certain advantages over original works and remakes.

1. The conversion of existing fans can guarantee the ratings to a certain extent.

2. Those who have read the original novel can create topics.

3. Old fans can attract new fans.

As for word of mouth, we will only know after it starts airing.

The most anticipated adaptations this year are the web dramas and movies adapted from Yun Feng's two novels "Zhu Xian" and "Diao Ren".

At the beginning of this month, Panda Film and Television also started to promote it, and the promotional title was - the web drama adapted from the new genre fairy tale novel "Zhu Xian" by the cross-border superstar will be exclusively broadcast on Panda Video on October 10, and the movie adapted from the super popular martial arts novel "Diao Ren" will be released nationwide on January 15 next year!

Because the previous novels were written under a pseudonym and the copyright belongs to Panda Chinese Network, this copy can only be promoted using the title "Crossover King".

but.

Panda Films added another line of words - the theme songs of the web drama "Zhu Xian" and the movie "The Dart" were both created by "Yun Feng" and sung by "Tang Yu" with an angelic voice and "Feng Zhe" with a domineering voice.

I put quotation marks around it for fear that others might not notice it.

There is only one purpose for doing this, which is to increase popularity for the online drama "Zhu Xian" and the movie "The Buddy".

Because online audio-visual programs have continued to develop rapidly in recent years and have become an important part of online literature and art, the creation of online dramas, online variety shows, online movies and other works has continued to grow.

This year, there are 180 online dramas with 4008 episodes that have been approved for online release, a year-on-year increase of 50%, so the competition is fierce.

"Yunnan University's "Zhu Xian" and "Diao Ren" are really good to watch. I hope they won't be ruined."

"The movie of 'Dart Man' was shot by the original crew of the web series, including the director, screenwriter, and actors, so the quality is definitely guaranteed."

"It's a collaboration with Yun Tang again. Even if the web series and the movie are cancelled, there are still songs to listen to."

"I've finally waited for it. Even if it's an adaptation, I have to support it!"

"(￣ c￣)y-～, I hope that when it really happens, it won't be blamed on Yunda and Tangda."

……

Yunfeng has a lot of true fans.

But it is precisely this that makes people worry.

There are many people on earth who criticize the authors of original works after adapting them.

Fortunately, Panda Pictures is a company that is willing to spend money. The investments in the online drama "Zhu Xian" and the movie "The Dart" are not low, at least the cast and special effects are not bad.

After a short week of waiting.

At 8 o'clock tonight, the online drama "Zhu Xian" will premiere.

Those who have read the original novel know that there are not many high-energy plots in the beginning, and no matter how it is changed, it is impossible to skip it directly, so people put their expectations on the theme song composed by Yun Feng and sung by Tang Yu.

Of course.

There is another type of people who never turn off the "skip opening and ending credits" function on the playback software.

theme song?
Ending song?
Is that audible?
For example, Lu Hongsheng.

First, I don’t like to dilly-dally and prefer to get straight to the point. Second, I subconsciously believe that there are no good songs in movies and TV dramas.

eight pm.

Lu Hongsheng sat in front of the computer on time, opened Panda Video, and played the first episode of "Zhu Xian".

The scene skips directly to the opening credits and an eagle dives down from the sky.

This long shot shows the mountains, rivers, trees, flowers, birds and animals on the vast land of China...

"Fuck, this special effect must have cost a lot of money!"

Lu Hongsheng has watched countless dramas. Except for the big-budget science fiction dramas, other dramas basically choose to cut special effects in order to reduce costs. The technology is mature, but the price is also there.
