Chapter 1226: On TV
"Miracle music, even the birds in Central Park were conquered by his music!" Pete blushed excitedly, he was just a newcomer to the TV station, and usually he could only shoot some news that few people watched. After Clark told the news to the TV station, others didn't believe it, so it fell into his hands. He also had a skeptical attitude when he came, but he didn't expect it to be true. This is a great development!
"Oh, I bought cakes, is this a movie? Using special technology?" The tourists around were also stunned by the scene in front of them. There is such a magical music in the world? So much so that they didn't believe it was real when they saw it with their own eyes.
"No, I was here just now. They didn't make any preparations. They started playing as soon as they set up the cameras." Said a tourist who had been sitting here for a long time.
"It may be that the clothes are stained with corn kernels or bread crumbs. Birds like to eat these." Some people are still skeptical.
"At least I didn't see it!" The tourist sitting on the chair shrugged and said, "Well, did you see that bird? That bird doesn't eat corn kernels or bread crumbs, they only eat bugs, but it is also surrounded by music. Attracted."
"How did you recognize it?" Isn't this Tonger? Other viewers became more and more skeptical. This bird does not seem to be very common. Can it distinguish the species from such a distance?
"I'm a professor of zoology at Cornell University. I can recognize all common animals in the United States, including birds!" The uncle was upset. Are you questioning my professional ability?
"Hello, sir. I'm a reporter from XXX TV station. I heard you say that you are a bird expert from Cornell University? Can you analyze the reason for this phenomenon with us?" This conversation also reached Pete's ears Here, he will come to interview right away.
"Of course, of course, I think the key lies in the frequency of the music he played. He used that unique musical instrument to imitate the calls of many kinds of birds, so that the surrounding birds thought it was his companion calling him... "The professor of zoology at Cornell University talked eloquently. Cornell University's zoology major is very famous and ranks among the best in the United States. What he said can be recognized by many people.
"Thank you very much for your explanation, can you give me your business card? Maybe our TV station will interview you." A hot news often lasts for several days. Only by conducting in-depth analysis can the interests be maximized, and Pete is well versed in the reason.
"No problem, I'll wait for your call." The professor is also very happy. Zoology is a relatively difficult subject with less investment in scientific research. If he can make more appearances on TV, let more people know about him, It will be easier to ask for research funding in the future. In American academic circles, whoever can get research funding will control the power of the laboratory.
After more than ten minutes of performance,
Seven or eight birds had already parked on Shen Long's shoulders and arms, and they all looked at Suona's mouth curiously. Could it be that there were their own kind hidden in it?
"Mr. Wang, what a wonderful performance! After the news is broadcast, you will definitely cause a sensation in New York!" The recent New York is simply too peaceful, there are no political scandals, and there is no star lace, as are the economic and financial circles. A pool of stagnant water, everyone is worrying about ratings hotspots.
Now that such a news breaks out, it will definitely attract the attention of many viewers, right? Just look at the increasing number of tourists around, and you will know that ordinary people will definitely be interested in this incredible news.
"Thank you, I'm lucky today. Generally speaking, similar situations rarely happen." Shen Long shrugged and said, this must be made clear in advance, otherwise everyone will look forward to the performance of "Hundred Birds in the Phoenix" every time in the future. If it falls, it will be troublesome.
"If one can be called accidental, but you have successfully achieved it twice, it means that your music has conquered these birds." For ratings, even if it is false, they have to say it is true, What's more, all of this has been recorded on camera, which is absolutely real.
"How did you do it?" Tourists also gathered around, and someone carefully observed every detail on Shen Long's clothes, but they didn't find anything like corn kernels or bread crumbs, and they used food to lure The bird's guess is self-defeating.
"As the professor said just now, I imitated the sound of birds with suona..." Shen Long talked eloquently, and popularized the knowledge of traditional Chinese music to the people of New York.
"Mr. Wang, hello, I'm Curtis, a professor of zoology at Cornell University. After watching your performance, I thought of a very good research topic, which is the interaction between various musical instruments and animals. Are you interested in communicating with us? Shall I study this topic together?" Professor Curtis also found an opportunity, and after the news is broadcast, he will take the video and this topic to ask for research funding, will he be approved?
As for whether he can research something useful in the end, it is not his concern. The path of human exploration of science is bound to be tortuous. As long as he can get funding, produce a few papers, and keep his position in the academic world That's it.
"I don't know much about science, but I'd be happy to help you if it doesn't take away from my job." Well, this can also help you gain reputation, why not agree?
After the filming of the show, Shen Long stayed and chatted with the big guys, continued to play a few tunes with the suona, and did not leave until it was almost time for lunch.
Pete and the others hurriedly left as soon as Shen Long was sent home. They didn't even bother to eat. "We need to go back immediately to finish writing the manuscript and editing the material, and try to release the news in the shortest possible time." News, what's the point of being hungry? At worst, just buy a hamburger on the side of the road and deal with it.
In the afternoon, Pete called Shen Long again, "Wang, the program will be aired in prime time at 8 o'clock tonight, you must watch it on time, Wang, you are absolutely popular this time!"
"Thank you, I will watch it then!" This is only the first time, and I will definitely have the opportunity to be on TV in the future.
Guo Yan was not as calm as Shen Long. After eating, she dragged Shen Long to sit on the sofa, tuned to Pete's TV station early, and waited anxiously for the program to start.
At around eight o'clock in the evening, Pete's voice finally came from the TV. Guo Yan hugged Shen Long's arm excitedly, "Qiming, let's go on TV!"
