Chapter 1216 Out of Poverty
"Dawn of Heroes" is the work of the famous Japanese musician Yokoyama Seiji. It is the opening song for the 7-hour cartoon movie "Three Kingdoms". Participating in the recording, including all the styles of the film respect the Chinese style.
Later, this famous piece of music was quoted in Chinese martial arts movies and TV series many times, including Gu Tianle's version of "The Legend of Condor Heroes", Charmaine Sheh's version of "Snow Mountain Flying Fox", etc. There are also countless UP masters at station B who use their own musical instruments to play Play this piece.
"Sbarasi! This piece of music is so suitable for the story of "Three Kingdoms". It is a perfect match for the opening piece! Wang Sang, you are a genius!" Chihara Rin was amazed by Shen Long's strength No more doubts.
"Ah! I always feel that there is something missing!" Kitaro scratched his hair in distress, "It should be added with horns, erhu, guzheng, and pipa! Can't the violins alone be able to bring out the charm of this piece? !"
"Yes, according to my idea, a synthesizer should be used with Chinese folk music instruments, but there are only two of us..." Shen Long shrugged. If he wants to do it, he needs an orchestra. He has the ability .
"Come on, let's try it!" Shen Long didn't have it here, but there were quite a few performers in Kitaro's studio. He immediately got busy and called everyone together to prepare for the ensemble "Dawn of Heroes" .
"Yo-yo, will you play the cello? Wang, I will leave the erhu to you; Mrs. Wang, you still play the violin; I will play the horn; Yuzi, you will be in charge of the guzheng; Qingzi, you have to work hard on the pipa part." ..." Kitaro's studio suddenly became chaotic, and the big guys arranged for the performers after discussing.
Although we can’t make up all the musical instruments yet, with violins, zithers, erhus, pipas, etc., we can basically perform this piece of music. No, he has to catch a plane early tomorrow morning, if they can't finish the joint training tonight, then it will be difficult for him to convince his boss when he returns.
Few of the leaders of Toei Co., Ltd. can understand the staves. They cannot be persuaded just by reading the music. It is more convincing to listen to the music. But he went to find a band. He can only hope that Kitaro and Ma You You and Shen Long can practice this piece well before he can take the recording back.
Shen Long and Guo Yan have practiced long ago. Yo-Yo Ma is a talented performer, and he quickly mastered such a short piece. The performers in Kitaro's studio are his collaborators on tour, and their strength should not be underestimated. So quickly finished their respective exercises and could start playing.
Shen Long had already completed the arrangement work and stipulated the cooperation of all instruments. After they finished their respective exercises, they could start to try to play together.
There were a few small omissions at the beginning, but this piece is not long, only about three minutes, and everyone quickly became a tacit understanding.
The opening of the French horn brings people back to the distant Three Kingdoms period more than 1,800 years ago. Although the history is long, the sound is still lingering. The subsequent male singing is a reproduction of the magnificent history. There is also the unspeakable tenderness of a heroic man, and perhaps a kind of tragic emotion involved in it. Coupled with the crooning of the cello, it aggravates the understanding of historical and cultural precipitation, which makes people infinitely aftertaste.
The embellishment of electronic harmony in the song strengthens the effect of vocal music, and depicts the heart of historical heroes as if it is in front of your eyes. It not only exaggerates the cruelty of war, but also expresses endless and delicate emotions. Among them, the tone of the violin, suddenly Seriousness turned to tenderness, which aggravated this tense and contradictory atmosphere. In the end, the trombone joined in passionately, pushing the historical scene to a climax, and the clear and spectacular ending showed the heroic spirit and the charm of infinite reverie that music brings to people.
Finally caught up! After listening to the song, Rinto Chihara went to check the recording immediately. The equipment in Kitaro's studio was very good, and the recording effect was very good, which was enough for him to convince the superiors of Toei Co., Ltd.
"It's really a good piece of music!" After the performance, the performers all showed joyful smiles. For them, encountering a good piece of music is also a very happy thing.
"Let's go, let's have a drink and celebrate!" Kitaro sent out an invitation, and everyone happily discussed that it was time to go to the nearby bar.
"Masters, I'm really sorry. I have to go back to Tokyo to report to my superiors tomorrow morning, and I can't continue to be happy with you." After drinking for a while, Qianyuan Rinren secretly ran to pay the bill, and then left Shen Long , Kitaro, Yo-Yo Ma and others drank until eleven or twelve o'clock in the evening before taking a taxi back home.
After arriving in Tokyo after a long flight, Chihara Rinto ignored the fatigue, and while Toei Co., Ltd. was still at work, he rushed back immediately and rushed into the office of the person in charge of the "Three Kingdoms" animation film project team, "Mr. Murakami, I Got the right tune!"
"Oh? Mr. Kitaro agreed to score our movie?" Minister Murakami's eyes lit up, and he patted Chihara Rinto's shoulder vigorously, "Haha, you are indeed the ace employee of our company!"
"No, it's not Mr. Kitaro's work. Mr. Kitaro recommended a Chinese composer." Seeing Minister Murakami's eyes gradually cooling down, Chihara Rinto quickly took out the demo, "This is the recording of that song."
"Well, let's listen to it!" The minister took it with a blank expression, and then called the main members of the project team to listen to the song "Dawn of Heroes" together.
"Sbarasi, this is a song tailor-made for us! Chihara-san, hurry back to New York and make sure to bring the contract back. I can feel that with these songs, our movie will definitely be better !”, Shen Long’s works also conquered the senior management of Toei Co., Ltd.
So the poor Chihara Rin had no time to go home, so he had to rush to the airport and take the latest flight to New York; after returning to New York, he took a quick shower, changed his clothes, and went to the airport. Hurry to Shen Long, present a contract, and invite him to be the soundtrack for this movie.
Shen Long glanced at the figures on the contract. This income plus the first copyright transfer fee Yo-Yo Ma gave him before, was enough for him to live comfortably for a period of time.
It has been three months since I traveled from Beijing to New York, and it is only now that I have escaped poverty.
