1990: Starting from Baojia Street

Chapter 91 Sitting on the mountain and watching the scenery (first update)

Jia Guoping also sat in the front row. Of course, he sat in the front row not because of his appearance.

He had heard Zhou Yan play the piece Croatian Rhapsody before. At that time, he thought that the piano solo was too thin and needed an orchestra to perform it.

Unexpectedly, I could hear the concerto version so soon, and the piano concerto was given by the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra.

After a series of arrangements, Zhou Yan looked at his watch and said to Wang Xiaoshuai, Old Wang, please lead someone to maintain order outside the field. We will start the machine in five minutes.

Wang Xiaoshuai nodded and ran out to maintain order.

I heard that the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra was coming to perform, and many students came outside the concert hall. However, the registration for part-timers had ended, and there were not enough spectators on site, so they could not come in.

Since they couldn't get in, they didn't leave, so they planned to listen outside the concert hall, so there were quite a lot of people outside at the moment. Zhou Yan asked Wang Xiaoshuai to maintain order because he was worried that some commotion outside would affect the subsequent filming.

More than a minute later, Wang Xiaoshuai suddenly came in with Shi Wanchun.

Seeing Shi Wanchun, Zhou Yan hurried over and asked, Teacher, why are you here?

Shi Wanchun smiled and said, I came to see the performance. I heard it was a new song you wrote?

Well, I wrote it for a movie. Zhou Yan nodded and explained, Today we are filming, not an ordinary performance, so I don't dare to disturb you.

You don't need to disturb me, I'll come by myself.

Then I will arrange a seat for you...

Zhou Yan searched the front row to see if he could find a seat for Shi Wanchun, but the seats were all full and it was difficult to arrange the seats. Just when he was feeling worried, Shen Huaigang had already stood up and walked out.

Director Shi, I have a seat there.

Shi Wanchun was no longer polite and nodded, Thank you.

After arranging Shi Wanchun to sit down, Zhou Yan patted Shen Huaigang on the shoulder and said, Good performance. Go to the camera crew. The effect is also good.

Shi Wanchun's arrival did not affect Zhou Yan's rhythm.

After a few minutes, Zhou Yan raised his hand and stretched out three fingers.

Three, two, one.

Turn on.

Play the board.

once.

start.

After he finished speaking, Lang Lang began to take the stage. A total of three camera positions were arranged for this scene, one mobile and two fixed.

The mobile camera follows the male protagonist. One fixed camera is for filming the band performance on stage, and the other is for filming the live audience. Although the audience's reaction in the end required separate reshoots, Zhou Yan still hoped to record the audience's true reaction during the first performance.

Because he was worried that when the song was played more times, it would be difficult for the audience to express the emotions that met his requirements. They were not professional actors and could not give the director the expressions they wanted at any time like actors.

And these three camera positions are not enough. At least one group is needed, so the orchestra has to perform at least twice today.

Because this scene was relatively important, Zhou Yan directly asked Zhao Fei and others to turn on the camera without worrying about wasting film, and the audio track was also being recorded at the same time.

No matter how many times the orchestra performs today, the audio track will be recorded as many times. Later, they will choose the one with the best effect and cut it into the film.

As soon as Shi Wanchun came in, he first took a look at the configuration of the orchestra. In addition to the regular violin group, some drums and basses were also added.

The reason why he came to see Zhou Yan today was also to inspect Zhou Yan. Zhou Yan's application for early graduation was already going through the process, and the possibility of passing it was relatively high. If the quality of the work Zhou Yan wrote this time passed the standard, the approval should go further. Hurry up, the results will be available this semester.

Two days ago, they were discussing internally whether to let Zhou Yan stay in school.

There is definitely a shortage of teachers in the composition department, and Jia Guoping, who just stayed at the school, doesn't know how long he can stay at the school.

Shi Wanchun had talked with Jia Guoping before. If given the opportunity, Jia Guoping still hopes to go abroad. Composition is inherently in line with the world, so it is normal to want to study abroad.

Although Jia Guoping said that he would come back after further study, the shortage of teachers in the composition department will become more serious during his absence.

When Li Bingyang was half-retired last semester, Jia Guoping was too busy and had to ask Zhou Yan to help him frequently.

So now the department is considering whether to keep Zhou Yan.

Halfway through the song, Shi Wanchun smiled. He knew that Zhou Yan's application for early graduation was extremely stable.

Zhou Yan's ability to combine classical music with pop music seems to be getting stronger and stronger now.

In fact, since Zhou Yan took a break from school, Shi Wanchun has met Zhou Yan much less, and he doesn't have a good grasp of Zhou Yan's study situation. However, judging from the performance of Memory of the Forbidden City and this piece, Zhou Yan's performance this year Over time, it seems that I have put down some things and started to create with a more relaxed attitude.

Zhou Yan's previous works were extremely avant-garde, pursuing a kind of extreme destruction, and even had the arrogance and stubbornness to break the classics and create new rules.

But now, Zhou Yan seems to only use classical music as a weapon to use when composing music.

If classical music is compared to a high mountain, when people face this mountain, some people want to climb over it, some want to fly over it, and some people want to level the mountain directly.

But now Zhou Yan is just standing on the top of the mountain, slowly looking at the scenery.

For this scene, the orchestra played the song seven times in total, and there was no problem every time. The reason why it was recorded so many times was just because Zhou Yan wanted different shots.

Just as Zhou Yan expected, after the first performance ended, the audience responded enthusiastically. Many people stood up and applauded the musicians on the stage, and the applause lasted for a long time.

The second time, everyone was still in a good mood, but the applause was not as enthusiastic as the first time.

The third time, the fourth time... By the seventh time, the audience's energy had been exhausted.

It’s not that they didn’t support it, it was just that listening to the same song seven times in a short period of time consumed a lot of their energy. Some people were tired from clapping, and their hands even hurt from clapping.

Only then did the audience really feel that acting is not as simple as they thought. Even if you are a supporting actor, you don't just sit there.

After the performance is over, we have to film the reactions of the other actors. Not only can they not leave, but they also have to cooperate.

When Zhou Yan finally said the word call it a day, half a day had passed since the start, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

But although they were very tired, everyone was still very excited. After all, they were considered electric shock.

When the students left the scene, they all congratulated Zhou Yan. First, they congratulated him on composing a good song, and second, congratulating him on making a good movie... although they didn't know what the movie was about.

Fang Xiu pulled Yu Ran over and said to Zhou Yan carelessly, Brother Zhou Yan, will this be your graduation piece next year? We will help you then.

Zhou Yan smiled and said, I repeated the grade, have you forgotten?

Fang Xiu waved his hand, Aren't you going to graduate early? Even if you don't graduate early, you can still play this piece in the final piece of the semester. Ranran and I have booked a cello and violin.

Zhou Yan made an OK gesture, No problem.

Regardless of whether it is the end of the semester or the graduation project, Zhou Yan will definitely look for Yu Ran and the others. After all, they have worked together several times and they are all familiar with them.

The 88-level composition students were very excited and ran around Zhou Yan and asked a lot of questions. However, monitor Shen Huaigang knew that Zhou Yan was busy at the moment, so he pulled them all away.

After all the 88-level composition students left, Shi Wanchun came over again and said to Zhou Yan, If you have time in the past two days, come to my office.

Zhou Yan didn't ask Shi Wanchun what he wanted from him, he just nodded, Okay, teacher, I'll be there tomorrow.

Well, you get busy.

After filming Yang Yin's last scene, Zhou Yan did not stop and continued to take the production team to shoot scenes in other places.

After school starts, he will have to stay at school for a few days, and the crew will also have a few days off, so he must pick up the progress as soon as possible.

It's indeed time for a holiday. During this period, their filming intensity was very high. Many people on the crew showed fatigue and their work efficiency began to decrease. It is also a good thing to take a few days off at this time to let them adjust.

He Saifei told Zhou Yan in a very cryptic way several times that when he came to Yanjing, he didn't even take a walk around, but stayed in the crew every day.

The next morning, Zhou Yan went to Shi Wanchun's office.

As usual, Zhou Yan first took out two packets of Hongtashan and gave them to Shi Wanchun.

Shi Wanchun, who was already accustomed to Zhou Yan's bribery, threw the two boxes of cigarettes into the drawer, and Shi Wanchun asked Zhou Yan to sit down.

Then Shi Wanchun said, I asked you to come here because I want to talk to you about staying in school.

Should I be detained in school? Zhou Yan looked surprised.

Shi Wanchun lit a cigarette for himself and said with a smile, What's so surprising about this? Haven't you already taught 88-level students for half a semester?

I'm just helping Senior Brother Li Bingyang.

Since you're helping, let's help until the end. What do you think about being detained in school?

But I haven't graduated yet. Zhou Yan meant to ask Shi Wanchun how his early graduation went.

Shi Wanchun waved the hand holding the cigarette, and the smoke made a half-circle in the air. Don't worry about graduating early. It's basically no problem. Our department currently has just enough teachers to allow you to stay in school, mainly for the sake of In response to some emergencies, you also know the situation of our department, maybe Jia Guoping will go abroad next year.

Zhou Yan nodded. He knew what Shi Wanchun said. In fact, Jia Guoping was applying for scholarships from some foundations. If passed, he would go abroad for further study.

Even if Jia Guoping comes back after further studies, at least three or four years will have to pass, and during these three or four years, there will never be an empty position waiting for him in the department.
