Chapter 308: A humble social instrument
“How many lingering dreams weaved together,”
“How many scenes of love and hate,”
“Why did everything come to an end? It's still empty..."
In the house in Shichahai, Gong Chou looked at the lyrics written in dialect and couldn't help but read them out.
Fang Yan knocked on the table, "What do you think?"
"Why are you so fast!"
Gong Xie looked in disbelief.
"Quickly?"
Dialect said that "Song of the Sunset" was originally prepared in Chinese and Japanese versions. The Japanese version was sold to Matsuzaka Keiko and Shochiku Company, and the Chinese version was naturally fertilized. Instead of leaving it to outsiders, let’s just leave it to Gong Chou to sing for the first time on the big stage of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala.
Gong Qian smelled something wrong, "Matsusaka Keiko? The female lead in "Putian March"?"
"Yes, that's her!"
The dialect said: "Chinese and Japanese culture During the exchange, we became good friends, and it was thanks to her that we were able to get the loan. ”
When Gong Zhen heard that this song was a return gift, he frowned and said, "Then if you just sing it to me like this, wouldn't it be bad?"
Fang Yan said deliberately: " We have not yet joined the World Intellectual Property Organization and there is no such thing as copyright protection.”
Gong Yan blinked: "But didn't you say that Matsuzaka Keiko is your good friend."
"What's more important, a female friend or a girlfriend?"
Dialect Mi Narrowing his eyes, "I will definitely choose a girlfriend, soon." The rice is ready to be cooked.”
“It’s not yet cooked!”
Gong Chou spat, then shook his head and said, “No, even if I’m not the host, I can’t. Sing this song.”
"Otherwise? I'll write a letter to her and Songzhu. It would be best if I could get their consent."
Fang Yan shrugged, "If it doesn't work, then we have to find another way. "
Gong Qian asked curiously: "What? What can I do?"
"Write another song for you that is not inferior to "Song of Thousand Thousands of Songs""
"But why should I write "Song of the Sunset" which is so good? What if the title of the song is changed to "Qian Qian Que Song"?
"'Que' means song, and 'Qianqianquege' means 'thousands of songs.'"
Fang Yan smiled and said, "Writing for others, even one song is too much for me, but I can write thousands of poems for you, but that’s not enough for me.”
“Bah, you’re coaxing me again!”
Gong Qian rolled his eyes, but a sweet smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
The dialect speaks half truths and half lies. If the issue of singing skills had not been taken into consideration, wouldn't "Ruyu" and "Human World" be more suitable.
Gong Zhen obviously also has no confidence in his singing skills, "What if I can't sing well?"
"Don't worry, the Spring Festival Gala stage is played with recordings, and this song is not difficult, you can master it. .”
Fang Yan raised his hand and was about to entrust the composition work to Gu Jianfen.
“I really never thought that one day I would be a guest host and sing in front of people all over the country.”
Gong Qie looked at the lyrics again and sighed.
Fang Yan took her into his arms and then asked about the attitude of Wu Yigong and Shanghai Film Studio.
"Mr. Wu has agreed."
Gong Jie said that the third Golden Rooster Awards will be held soon, and she was shortlisted for "Best Actress" with "Under the Bridge" "Nomination.
"Look, what did I say? "Under the Bridge" is a turning point for you." Fang Yan said: "How should you thank me?"
Gong Qiao glared. , but his voice was soft and trembling, "Isn't it all satisfying for you? It's not enough..."
Fang Yan joked: "You're so mouth-watering!"
"As soon as the Golden Rooster Awards are over, I will go back to the factory to get a letter of introduction and a marriage certificate. Let's get things done by the end of the year."
< br>The more Gong Qie spoke, the louder his tone became. Determined: "What do you think?"
"Let's do it!"
Fang Yan still looked serious on the front foot, but turned playful and smiling on the back foot, "Then let me get some interest back first."< br>
Gong Zhen dodged, broke away from his arms and stood up, with a cunning light in his eyes:
"I didn't lend you money, where will the interest come from?"
Then he walked over In front of the table, holding the manuscript of the mystery novel, "Okay, let's Hurry up and write "Malicious", I'm still waiting to see the motivational narrative tricks and narrative traps you mentioned!"
…………
Time flies, five days later, Fang Yan and Gong Qi came to the restaurant of Tiantan Sports Hotel as scheduled.
It can be seen that the size of the creative team is really not small, and it is crowded.
"Wangtai, look who's coming!"
Deng Zaijun reminded Wang Feng.
Wang Feng and Huang Yihe followed his gaze and were immediately overjoyed and greeted him enthusiastically.
Then he pulled Fang Yan and Gong Cie and introduced the other members of the creative team to them one by one.
"Teacher Jiang Kun, the host of this Spring Festival Gala."
"Teacher Li Pingfen, a film screenwriter at Bayi Film Studio, is also the consultant of this Spring Festival Gala."
"..."< br>
“I don’t need to introduce these two, Zhu Shimao and Chen Peisi!”
When the two appeared in front of Chen Peisi, he couldn’t help but feel embarrassed. Tell me, you brought Teacher Fang here?
"Hey, let's go to the central stage."
"Hey, thanks to you, we both have this opportunity."
"So what skit will you two perform this time? "
Fang Yan looked at Chen Xiaoer on the left and Zhu Shimao on the right.
Chen Peisi said: "It's the "Actor Test" you watched before."
""Actor Test"?"
Gong Cie cast an inquiring look at Fang Yan.
Waiting for the dialect to speak, Huang Yihe said with a smile that after the discussion and determination of the theme of the Spring Festival Gala, the remaining time will be left to the performance units and performers who have prepared the program. Then he pointed to the seats and motioned for the two of them to sit down.
“Pa bang.”
Wang Feng clapped his hands and raised his voice and said: "Now that everyone is here, let's officially have a meeting."
After a polite opening remarks, he started to get down to business, "Last year's Spring Festival Gala was short of time. , the task is heavy, and there is no creative team to brainstorm like now, so it is very hasty, very rough, and very imperfect.”
“Therefore, the 1984 Spring Festival Gala must be held. new Let’s make it exciting and unique!”
“In view of the experience and lessons of the CCTV and Yanjing TV Spring Festival Gala in 1983, the format of the program is currently set to include songs, cross talk, allegro, storytelling, sketches, martial arts, If you have any other good ideas for opera or dance, you can put them forward."
Following Wang Feng's words, Deng Zaijun said kindly: "The first item is the theme and song program of the Spring Festival Gala."
< br>
Gong Zhen was keenly aware that everyone present was focusing on the dialect.
"First come, first served, or you come first."
Fang Yan looked kind and helpless. If he spoke first, who would dare to speak up?
As a result, everyone started talking and expressed their opinions. Some said "happiness", some said "reunion"...
Huang Yihe recorded them one by one and looked at them eagerly. ：
"Teacher Fang, what do you think?"
"It's all good, it's all good."
Fang Yan smiled, "But I personally think it's best to combine the current The situation and the needs of the times?"
Wang Feng couldn't wait to say: "Can you be more specific?"
"That is unity."
Fang Yan said seriously: "Since the Spring Festival Gala is the Spring Festival Gala for people across the country, it should not only include the north and south, but also Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan."
As soon as these words came out, it was like a bolt from the blue, shocking everyone present.
“I wonder if, in addition to the mainland, we can invite celebrity artists from Hong Kong and Taiwan to participate?”
Dian Yan looked left and right.
"W-isn't this too risky? There has never been such a precedent!" Huang Yihe was startled by this shocking idea and swallowed his saliva.
That’s because I didn’t come! I've been here for a long time!
Fang Yan smiled.
"But..."
Wang Feng and others were not sure for a while. After all, CCTV had no precedent of Hong Kong and Taiwan singers attending the Spring Festival Gala.
“Rules are meant to be followed, but they can also be broken, right?”
Fang Yan disagreed, "I believe that the superior leaders will definitely like this theme, and they may not kill it directly."
Deng Zaijun said with great interest: "It is indeed good, but what programs should be arranged under this theme? What about?”
“Can we invite singers from Hong Kong and Taiwan to sing songs that fit the theme?”
Fang Yan took out a few cassettes from his briefcase.
“Sure enough, Teacher Fang came prepared!”
Deng Zaijun asked the staff to bring a tape recorder.
Fang Yan said with a smile: "Play "My Chinese Heart" first."
Under the gaze of everyone, Zhang Mingrui's voice slowly played on the tape recorder:
< br>“The rivers and mountains only linger in my dreams, and the motherland has not been close to me for many years... Even though I am wearing a dress, my heart is still Chinese.”
“Okay!”
Upon hearing this, Wang Feng, Huang Yihe and others' eyes lit up.
"Besides this one, you can invite Wang Mingquan again."
Fang Yan changed the tape, and the theme song of "Love Across Thousands of Rivers and Mountains" played in the next second.
“That’s not bad!”
Everyone is very clear that the return of Hong Kong is the general trend, and they all support allowing Hong Kong singers to appear on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala.
"But just singing this song, isn't it too little?"
Deng Zaijun said: "Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, can you sing a few more songs?"
Fang Yan said: "No problem, we can definitely invite singers from Hong Kong and Taiwan to sing the songs we wrote."
"Now that we have Xiangjiang, what about Treasure Island?"
The question raised by Huang Yihe, all of a sudden Let the excited people calm down.
"First of all, we can invite Huang Zhicheng and Li Dawei, the two rebellious pilots, to sing."
Fang Yan said: "As for songs, I have already picked two for them, "Dragon's" "The Descendants" and "Grandma's Penghu Bay"
Huang Yihe took the tape and put it into the radio eagerly.
“There is a river in the far east,
its name is the Yangtze River.
There is a river in the far east,
its name is the Yellow River.
......
Dragon, dragon, keep your eyes open,
keep your eyes open forever and ever. ”
"For this song, it would be best if singers from Hong Kong, Taiwan and mainland China can sing a chorus. What do you think?"
Fang Yan looked around.
"Wonderful! What a wonderful idea!"
"Teacher Fang is truly worthy of being Teacher Fang!"
"Sure enough, please come to the creative team to plan the Spring Festival Gala, really That’s right! ”
"..."
When Wang Feng, Huang Yihe and others heard this idea, they were full of praise and wanted to take action immediately.
Fang Yan couldn't help but laugh, and blinked at Gong Qie calmly.
I am just a humble social instrument to hold the fruits of your careful consideration.
