Huayu started from the fairy sword

Chapter 42 "House of Flying Daggers" Premiere!

February 7, 10pm.

The film "House of Flying Daggers" directed by Zhang Yimou held a grand world premiere ceremony at the Workers' Stadium in Beijing.

The so-called premiere celebration is actually to allow all participants to have a general understanding of "House of Flying Daggers", thus arousing the audience's interest in watching the film.

In fact, film distributors, including Hollywood, will come up with all kinds of novel ways to create momentum for the film's premiere.

For example, "The Lord of the Rings 3" once held a large-scale parade in New Zealand.

The reason why the premiere celebration of "House of Flying Daggers" chose the form of a concert is also because the three leading actors are versatile. They are not only actors, but also have high attainments in other artistic fields. Through this premiere celebration, we will showcase them Artistic talent beyond acting.

In addition to Liu Dehua, Jin Chengwu, Zhang Ziyi, Song Dandan and other main creative personnel, Zhang Yimou also invited Dao Lang, Cao Jun, Zhang Xinzhe, Chen Huilin and many other singers to participate in the premiere celebration of "Ambush from Ten Daggers".

In fact, at the beginning, Cao Jun refused the invitation of Zhang Yimou and the publisher of "House of Flying Daggers".

Because Cao Jun couldn't figure out what he was going to do for the premiere of "Housing Daggers", he felt that he had nothing to do with "Housing Daggers".

Zhang Yimou explained to him: "We hope that through this celebration party that combines concert and movie elements, we can vividly display the spirit of "House of Flying Daggers", so that our Huaguo movie can truly become a household name and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. "

Cao Jun had to lament that great directors speak differently, and whatever they say can be related to the country and the righteousness of the nation.

In fact, in the final analysis, Zhang Yimou and the publisher invited Cao Jun and Dao Lang to participate in this premiere ceremony, mainly because they took a fancy to the current popularity and popularity of Cao Jun and Dao Lang, and wanted to use their influence to contribute to "House of Flying Daggers". Movies do store promotion.

For the sake of money, Cao Jun didn't struggle too much, so he happily agreed.

Like Cao Jun, who couldn't figure it out, there was Dao Lang who was besieged by the music scene in the capital.

Dao Lang has always been shy and a little coquettish, coupled with the joint criticism of him by the music circle in Beijing, he is almost shut down and has a particularly low self-esteem.

Facing Zhang Yimou's invitation, Dao Lang said to Zhang Yimou: "Director, I'm just a grassroots singer, I can't embarrass you."

However, Zhang Yimou thought that Dao Lang was very talented, and he said to Dao Lang: "You must come, I believe in you."

Although Zhang Yimou said so, Dao Lang still felt unworthy.

He declined Zhang Yimou once again: "Director Zhang, I'm really sorry, I appreciate your kindness."

"However, I'm just a grassroots singer, and it's hard to be elegant. I don't deserve to participate in such an elegant event."

After Zhang Yimou heard this, he was a little unhappy, and he said to Dao Lang: "It's so difficult to be elegant, it's just an event, what's so great about it."

"Don't worry so much, just come, I believe you!"

Finally, under Zhang Yimou's repeated invitation, Dao Lang finally agreed to participate in this event.

After the opening of the premiere ceremony, Cao Jun and Dao Lang sat together according to the arrangement of the organizer.

On the left of Cao Jun is Dao Lang, on the right is Hong Kong singer Cheng Huilin, and the Taiwanese group SHE.

Cheng Huilin is a cheerful and straightforward female singer. Because the ceremony had not yet started and she was a little bored, she took the initiative to talk to him: "Cao Jun, I have heard you sing "Fairy Tale", it is very nice."

As a native of Cantonese, Cao Jun is very familiar with Cheng Huilin, a singer from Xiangjiang.

It was the first time to have close contact with Cheng Huilin, and Cao Jun found that she was taller and more beautiful than she looked on TV. She was very fashionable and had a very good temperament.

In contrast, the three female singers of SHE sitting next to Cheng Huilin looked a little old-fashioned.

Maybe it's because she often sings Mandarin songs, Cheng Huilin's Mandarin is much better than the average Xiangjiang people.

Cao Jun replied with a smile: "Sister Kelly, you sing beautifully. I like your songs very much. I am your fan."

Cheng Huilin didn't quite believe it, and asked back: "Really? Are you really my fan? Then tell me a song and I'll listen to it."

Cao Jun didn't even think about it, so he replied: "Too many, I've heard all of your singing "Better to Dance", "Notepad", "Huahua Universe" and so on."

After listening to Cao Jun's answer, Cheng Huilin believed that Cao Jun was her fan, but laughed at herself and said: "It seems that I am really out of date, what you said are all my old songs, you don't Have you heard one of my new songs?"

This really stumped Cao Jun. In his impression, Cheng Huilin's most popular period was the late 90s and early 90s.

In the next few years, the Xiangjiang music scene has basically been crushed by the Taiwanese music scene, and Cao Jun rarely listens to new songs sung by Cheng Huilin.

Cao Jun thought about it, but still couldn't figure it out, so he smiled awkwardly.

Cheng Huilin didn't want to embarrass Cao Jun, so she laughed and said: "It's okay, it doesn't matter if you don't know my new song. I heard that you are very good at writing songs. You wrote all your songs yourself?"

Cao Jun said frankly: "My songs are all written by myself, but my songwriting is very average, not very good."

Cheng Huilin praised: "You are too humble, you are so young, and you can write your own songs, you are already very good."

Before Cao Jun could answer, Cheng Huilin continued: "Since you said you are my fan, would you like to write a song for your idol?"

Cao Jun thought for a while, and there was nothing wrong with writing a song for Cheng Huilin, so he said bluntly, "Yes, it's a great honor, and I'd be happy to help you write a song."

Cheng Huilin looked at Cao Jun in disbelief: "Really? Then let's exchange contact information."

"Row!"

After speaking, Cao Jun and Cheng Huilin took out their mobile phones and added the other party's mobile phone number.

Dao Lang on the side, wearing a hat and bowing his head, listened to Cao Jun and Cheng Huilin chatting and laughing next to him, and then glanced at Zhang Xinzhe next to him, really feeling the urge to run away.

Cao Jun was well aware of Dao Lang's situation. After chatting with Cheng Huilin, he took the initiative to talk to Dao Lang: "Brother Dao Lang, you sing really well. It gives people a feeling of vicissitudes and sadness, which is very flavorful."

After being alone for a long time, he was suddenly cueed by Cao Jun. Dao Lang felt flattered immediately, and hurriedly replied: "Thank you, my song is not as good as yours. Your song is more popular with everyone. My song can't be on the stage. .”

Cao Jun said angrily and amusedly: "Why, your "The First Snow in 2002" is so popular, this year's most popular song is your song, and my "Fairy Tale" can only be ranked second .”

"As for those so-called Beijing singers, they criticize your music. It's not that there is something wrong with your music. It's that their thinking is too narrow, and their vision is too narrow, and they refuse to accept our folk music."

After hearing Cao Jun's words, Dao Lang was so moved that he almost cried. He also had a feeling of resentment towards Cao Jun, so he sighed and choked up and said, "Brother, thank you! Your song is also great! "

Cao Jun replied with a smile: "We are each other!"

After the premiere ceremony of "House of Flying Daggers" began, Cao Jun was the first to appear on stage and sang "Fairy Tale", which was warmly welcomed by the audience.

Afterwards, Dao Lang also went up and sang three songs, namely "The First Snow in 2002", "Punishment of Impulse", and "Remembering Comrades".

Cao Jun noticed that Dao Lang cried when he sang "Remembering His Comrades". At that time, he sang Xingjiang-"At the foot of Tianshan Mountain is my lovely hometown. When I left him, it seemed that the cantaloupe had broken its seedlings..."

After stepping down, Cao Jun handed Dao Lang a tissue.

Dao Lang took the tissue from Cao Jun, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said emotionally: "Brother, after the ceremony, let's go drink together!"

Cao Jun didn't refuse, and replied: "Okay, let's have a drink or two together later!"
