Chapter 182 Preparing for the rematch, Dongyin No. [-] Symphony Orchestra makes another move

"You make an offer. We don't make counteroffers."

On Monday evening, Fang Xing finished her rehearsal for the Spring Festival Gala and flew back to Donghai from Kyoto.

As soon as I got off the plane, there was a personal invitation.

Sitting in the Tang Yun tea house in the Donghai World Trade Center, the new Xinyang Maojian has been brewed.

Sitting opposite is Chen Lipeng, a shareholder of Puxiang Records.

This time it was a private invitation, and there was no one else around, so Chen Lipeng spoke directly.

He took out a business card and pushed it in front of Fang Xing: "This is the business card of the producer of Red Film's S-level martial arts production "Blood Rain Jianghu".

"Let me tell you directly. The producer is Wen Han's uncle. So, as long as you agree to sell "The Skylark", you can choose any role after the fourth episode in this big production.

"In addition, I also have some influence in the three major Chinese music awards, which can help you a lot.

"Your song "The Skylark" is indeed very good.

"Actually, this violin piece won't play much role in your hands.

"This violin piece is more suitable for performance on the stage of international competitions.

"You should also know that this violin piece won't be a big hit in pop music.

"It's only in the game that it can show its true value.

"I can make this song "The Skylark" receive worldwide acclaim.

"Of course, we don't need to treat this as a transaction, it can be regarded as making friends."

Chen Lipeng threw out an olive branch and made it very clear that he was making friends.

It's all about networking.

Moreover, the Chen family really has a wide network of contacts.

The producer of this S-level martial arts masterpiece "Blood Rain Jianghu" turned out to be Chen Wenhan's uncle.

No wonder the Chen family can designate the characters outside the fourth episode at will.

The producers are all sons-in-law of the Chen family, so arranging a role couldn't be easier.

Actually, based on Chen Lipeng's attitude, Fang Xing didn't hate this person.

Because Chen Lipeng is a very standard businessman, and his words will not be offensive.

To be honest, if it was Chen Lipeng who came to talk at the beginning, don't use power to overwhelm others, Fang Xing might really compose a violin piece for him.

Certainly not The Skylark.

Since "Skylark" has been given to Lu Xiang'er, this matter will not change.

However, it was Chen Wenhan who asked for "The Skylark" for the first time.

When Fang Xing thought about it, Chen Wenhan was going to play his own song in the competition, and he was in a bad mood.

"Sorry, Mr. Chen, "The Skylark" is not for sale." Fang Xing replied in a normal tone.

Chen Lipeng had worked so hard in the business field for so many years, and when he heard Fang Xing's flat tone when he spoke, he knew that this matter would be difficult.

However, the piece "Skylark" was requested by the violin genius in their family.

Moreover, the old man of his family also said that as long as he can win this song, he can pay any price.

Therefore, the Chen family is bound to win "The Skylark".

Chen Lipeng laughed dryly and said, "Mr. Fang, I'm not afraid to tell you that we know several judges of the Paganini International Violin Competition. In fact, some results have already been decided from the beginning."

Fang Xing heard a hint of threat from his words.

Chen Wenhan's mother is a violinist who has won many awards in international competitions.

In the violin circle, the Chen family is indeed very well connected.

Therefore, it is not surprising that the Chen family knows the judges of the Paganini International Violin Competition.

It's normal to lobby the judges for an international event like this.

As long as the level is not much different, moving one or two places up and down will not have much impact.

Chen Lipeng went on to say: "If you give "The Skylark" to other contestants, you will not get good grades. Only by giving it to us can you make your song famous.

"You should know that whether a piece of music can become a famous piece depends on who plays it."

Under normal circumstances, what Chen Lipeng said was the truth.

Whether a piece of music can become famous all over the world really has a lot to do with the performer.

At least the piece played by a famous violinist can make the piece reach the peak achievement it should have in the shortest time.

Otherwise, even if it is a masterpiece handed down from generation to generation, it may take a long time for this piece of music to be discovered by the world slowly.

Fang Xing was indifferent to his lobbying, shook his head and said with a smile: "Actually, you still underestimate this song "The Skylark". This song is not for sale, so there is no need to talk about it. As for the S-level resources that Mr. Chen mentioned, thank you for your kindness. I don't think I need to."

Chen Lipeng shook his head and smiled and said, "Young man, you may have gone too smoothly, and you still don't know what S-level resources mean. How about this, I can help you get the chance to audition for the male lead, as long as you don't have poor acting skills Too much, can help you take this role."

The reason why Chen Lipeng dared to promise this was because he saw Fang Xing's image with his own eyes.

With Fang Xing's appearance, he was good enough to play the leading role, the only difference was his acting skills.

However, for such an S-level production, it is definitely necessary to hire traffic stars, and the role of traffic stars does not have high requirements for acting skills, as long as they are not too overwhelmed.

Fang Xing shook his head and said, "I'm quite picky when it comes to acting, so I'd like to thank Mr. Chen for his kindness."

Hearing this answer, Chen Lipeng was a little dazed, with a surprised expression on his face.

Picking up the show is more challenging?
A rookie who had never acted before said that he was quite picky when it came to acting.

Chen Lipeng even suspected that he had heard it wrong.

This time, the negotiation still didn't work out.

After coming out of Tang Yun Tea House, Chen Lipeng felt that Fang Xing was like a reckless master. He offered such a good condition, but he just wanted a little-known violin piece, but he couldn't even get it.

With these S-level resources, it is even possible to convince several famous composers in China to help compose a piece of music.

But Fang Xing was not moved at all.

Chen Lipeng couldn't understand Fang Xing's thoughts.

The S-level film and television resources are in front of him, and he has even promised the role of the second male lead, so he only needs to go through a trial scene.

Even so, Fang Xing did not agree.

There are only two possibilities that Chen Lipeng can think of.

First, Fang Xing didn't want to get involved in the film and television industry.

Second, Fang Xing wants to play the leading role.

A singer who had never acted before, wanted to play the male lead of an S-level big production in his first play.

This is simply fantastic.

If it were from Beijing Film Academy and Central Opera Department, there is still a little possibility.

This has to be the hard work of the capital. A singer who has never acted before, if he really wants to play the male lead, then he is definitely thinking too much.

Although the Chen family is determined to win "The Skylark", Chen Lipeng has already tried his best.

For this sake, I still can't get this violin piece, and when I get home, it's justified in front of the old man.

After leaving the tea house, Chen Lipeng called his family: "Dad, I personally talked with the composer, but he refused to sell it.

"Yes, I have said all the conditions, the best resources, the best contacts, and even said that I can help him lobby the judges of the Golden Melody Awards.

"He still refused to agree, so let's forget about this piece, and it's not completely irreplaceable.

"Okay, I see, the three Golden Melody Awards, you can suppress it if you can."

……

night.

Fang Xing accompanied Lu Xianger to practice the piano with the piano accompaniment.

Her "Skylark" has been practiced very proficiently.

Fang Xing has also registered the copyright of "The Skylark" with the music association designated by the Paganini International Violin Competition.

Lu Xianger has also submitted the competition track to the competition organizer.

When the two were practicing the piano.

Lu Xianger received a call and communicated in English, stumbling.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Xiang'er frowned and said, "The organizer said that the accompanying orchestra is too late to rehearse "The Skylark", and asked me if I want to change the song."

Fang Xing asked: "You agree?"

Lu Xiang'er shook her head and replied, "No, I've been preparing for so long, now I'm changing the repertoire, and it's too late to practice."

Although I have practiced many classic violin pieces since I was a child, if I change the tunes temporarily, it is not that there are no tunes to use.

However, "Skylark" has been practiced for almost a month, and it is only a few days before the rematch. Now that the repertoire is changed, it must not be proficient enough for the competition.

Fang Xing then asked: "Then what did the organizer say?"

Lu Xianger recalled and replied: "They said that they could not provide the accompaniment of instruments such as piano and violin. If the tune is not changed, I should bring my own accompaniment, or participate in the competition without an accompaniment."

A violin is not like a piano.

Playing the piano alone can also be very nice.

Playing the violin alone, especially some difficult pieces, will appear relatively monotonous.

Therefore, participating without an accompaniment will be very disadvantageous.

Fang Xing thought for a while and asked, "Do you want to change the tune?"

Lu Xianger shook her head vigorously: "I don't want to."

"There are two plans. One is to make a digital accompaniment, and the other is to find the school's symphony orchestra. I can take care of the piano part. The cello and double bass are relatively simple, and they can be well coordinated after a few days of rehearsal." Fang Xing proposed Two options.

The song "The Skylark" can be accompanied by a piano or a symphony orchestra.

Among them, the piano is the most important instrument in the accompaniment.

As for cello, double bass, and brass scores, there are relatively few.

Even some musical instruments with few passages are so boring that they can fall asleep when they are playing together.

If the Dongyin No. [-] Symphony Orchestra is willing to accompany it, it is completely possible to play after a few days of rehearsal.

"I don't know if the school symphony orchestra can agree, I'm a little worried." Lu Xiang'er sighed, feeling that things were a bit tortuous this time.

Fang Xing actually thought of another plan.

If the Dongyin First Symphony Orchestra is unwilling to help, then pay for a symphony orchestra.

The competition only takes one day, and if you invite a symphony orchestra, from rehearsal to competition, two or three hundred thousand should be able to handle it.

However, this is a backup plan, first communicate with the school.

……

the next day.

Fang Xing and Lu Xianger came to Professor He Zhaolin's office on the eighth floor of the Administration Building of Donghai Conservatory of Music.

"What's the matter with you? I have class later, only 10 minutes." He Zhaolin looked at his watch.

Lu Xianger hurriedly got down to business: "Professor, I submit "The Skylark" as the repertoire for the semi-finals. The organizers have no objection, but they said that the accompanying orchestra has no time to rehearse the new song, so they asked me to bring my own accompaniment, otherwise I would have to change the repertoire."

He Zhaolin frowned and said, "This is indeed a problem. The former students all competed with classic pieces and never had this kind of problem."

It is actually rare to use a new song to participate in an international competition.

He Zhaolin has tutored many participating students, but he has never encountered this problem.

Fang Xing took over the conversation: "So, we want to ask the school's No. [-] Symphony Orchestra to provide Genoa accompaniment."

"This one……"

He Zhaolin can't make a decision on this matter alone. He can only say: "This matter, you have to apply to the school. The procedure for the First Symphony Orchestra to perform abroad is quite complicated. There is also a problem of funding."

For the performance of Dongyin No. [-] Symphony Orchestra, the school has special leaders who are in charge.

Performing abroad will definitely require funds.

If you need funds, you need to apply to the school.

However, this time the symphony orchestra went abroad to perform, but it was not for profit, it was just to accompany a participating student.

It is more troublesome to apply for this funding.

Fang Xing took the initiative to say: "This time I will go abroad to perform, and I will fully sponsor the expenses."

When the Dongyin No. [-] Symphony Orchestra goes out to perform, they can basically get sponsorship.

If there is sponsorship, it will be much easier to apply to the school for activities.

He Zhaolin nodded and said, "If that's the case, I can apply to the school. I think the symphony orchestra would also like to participate in this event. I'll apply to the school first, and I'll let you know the result."

After all, it is the most valuable international violin competition.

If you can participate in this event, even if it is just to be an accompanist, it will be a good experience for Dongyin No. [-] Symphony Orchestra.

……

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Xianger received a call from He Zhaolin, confirming that the Dongyin First Symphony Orchestra agreed to go to Genoa to help with the accompaniment.

Afterwards, He Zhaolin arranged for Dongyin No. [-] Symphony Orchestra to rehearse with Lu Xianger.

Among them, Fang Xing was in charge of the piano accompaniment.

After all, there are many passages of piano accompaniment. If you start practicing now, you will definitely not be proficient enough when it comes to the competition.

Fang Xing is already very proficient, so he directly participated in the rehearsal.

the following few days.

Fang Xing and Lu Xianger rehearsed "The Skylark" with the Dongyin No. [-] Symphony Orchestra.

In fact, everyone has collaborated twice on "Song" before, and they are already very familiar with each other.

Working together again, from the beginning of the rehearsal, it went very smoothly.

Moreover, this time He Zhaolin personally served as the conductor of the symphony orchestra.

After many years, he had the opportunity to return to the Paganini International Violin Competition, and it feels very wonderful.

During the rehearsal, Fang Xing and He Zhaolin discussed the piece and made additions to some passages of the accompaniment to make the whole piece more pleasing to the ear.

After Dongyin No. [-] Symphony Orchestra rehearsed "The Skylark", everyone liked the piece very much, especially when the violin imitated the cry of skylarks, it seemed that they really heard a group of skylarks singing.

After a week of rehearsals, it was finally time for the rematch of the Paganini International Violin Competition.

A group of more than 100 people took a flight to Paganini's hometown, the seaport city of Genoa.

Since the entire Dongyin First Symphony Orchestra was going this time, there were a lot of people, and it looked like a chartered flight.
