A Perfect Life Beginning as a Light Novel Writer

Chapter 84 Daily Life and Music Creation

Although the unnamed single book will be released in mid-to-late October.

But at the end of September.
Red Maple Literature has already started to promote the release of the unnamed booklet in advance.

The new posters of "Unheard Flower Name" produced by Hongfeng Literature can be seen everywhere in animation exhibitions, bookstore advertising spaces, surrounding markets and other places in the southern province.

On the promotional poster, it is emphatically mentioned that there is a new chapter of the extra plot novel in the booklet, and a bookmark signed by the author "Yuanqing" will be randomly placed on the page of the booklet. This special version of the booklet, The appearance of the pamphlet is the same as that of ordinary pamphlets, with a total of [-] copies, which are randomly sold in various counties and cities in the southern province, similar to a small lottery-like event.

This excited the "unheard flower name" book fans in the southern province.

The autographed bookmark of "Yuanqing", the girl author who can write such a gentle story, does her autographed bookmark have a scent?

This also led to new tasks for Xia Yan to go home every day in the past few days, and he even added autographs to the whiteboard bookmarks.

On Monday, [-] signatures will be handed over to Hongfeng Literature.

"I don't know if my seemingly standard words will disappoint the fans?"

Xia Yan looked at the whole pile of bookmarks with the word "Yuanqing" signed next to him, with a slightly strange expression on his face.

Anyway, Xia Yan won't be doing any on-site signings for the time being. Nancheng No. [-] Middle School is relatively strict. If you ask for too much leave, you don't have enough class hours, but you have to repeat and fail to graduate.

Besides, Xia Yan has no plans to reveal his identity for the time being, otherwise his peaceful campus life will definitely be disrupted.

After the unheard flower name ended, Xia Yan almost entered the state of salted fish, waiting for a month or two before the start of the "New God's Ranking" event.

As for the plan to serialize new works on Red Maple Literature, Xia Yan has no idea for the time being.

The recent adaptation of the unknown name is enough for him to drink a pot. Jiuyou Animation is indeed as director Ren Qing said, respecting the original author's ideas, and often contacting Xia Yan on the computer for some details of the work, such as the characters of the animation The character design, painting style, plot rhythm, and animation script adapted from the novel. There is a professional company over there, and the production team moved very quickly after signing with Xia Yan.If Xia Yan starts another new work, it will exhaust him to death.

But the other party also took the initiative to ask yesterday, what Xia Yan once said, is suitable for the animation of "Unheard Flower Name".

"Ding Dong!!"

The doorbell in the room rang.

Xia Yan basically had no contact with him since his father's death. After all, his father owed his relatives a huge debt and died, so they were still angry.

So people who will come to Xia Yan's house at this time.

Xia Yan quickly stood up and opened the door.
Sure enough, outside the house, a young girl stood tall.

Ru Mo's soft hair hangs down, wearing a light white floral dress, carrying a large package on his back, his eyes are full of calm when he sees Xia Yan, his face is cool and beautiful.

"You're so fast, it's only 07:30." Xia Yan said.

Song Lingyun walked into Xia Yan's house and looked around.

"I thought your house would be the same as Tang Yin's house. It was full of cartoons and novels. I didn't expect it to be so empty." Song Lingyun said after watching it for a long time.

"You will come again in a while. I haven't warmed up my manuscript fee yet, and I have classes every day and write novels on weekends and evenings. I don't have time to go to the surrounding markets to buy those." After Xia Yan poured a cup of tea for Song Lingyun, the two The people sat in the living room and looked at each other.

It actually feels a little weird.

The purpose of Song Lingyun's coming to Xia Yan's house is also very simple, just to help Xia Yan get the sheet music, but the purpose of her looking around just now is not really interested in the layout of Xia Yan's house, but to see if he has I'm writing a new novel.

But Song Lingyun was disappointed. Although Xia Yan confirmed that his next work was going to the moon, he hadn't actually started construction yet.

"Okay, don't waste your time. Let's start." Xia Yan said immediately.

Although he doesn't know music theory, he can at least sing. Of course, the original song of this song is in Japanese, and Xia Yan will definitely not be able to sing it, but he can hum the tune and let Song Lingyun compose it into a song.

Of course, this kind of operation, even Xia Yan, who is a layman in music, knows that it may still be a little difficult, but I have communicated with Song Lingyun before, and she said that there is no problem.

"Wait for me there." Song Lingyun took out a stave book from his bag.

Then she took out an electronic piano from the big backpack she was carrying before, she was not polite, she found a place to plug in the power supply, wiring and so on, and then sat directly opposite Xia Yan and said.

"It's time to start."

When Xia Yan saw the pile of equipment Song Lingyun took out and her serious expression, Xia Yan was actually quite surprised.

"You have prepared so many things. Do you really believe that a layman like me can come up with any interesting tunes?"

"This kind of thing can only be known after practice." Song Lingyun held a pen in his hand and opened the staff book.

Then after trying to play the sound of the electronic piano, he made sure that there was no deviation, and said to Xia Yan.

"Understood." Xia Yan said after hearing the words.

then
He opened his mouth.

At first, Song Lingyun frowned when he heard the tune he hummed softly.

This is not only ignorance of music theory knowledge, it can even be said to be tone incomplete.

But listen, listen, as the tune connects
The look in Song Lingyun's eyes changed.

Her attention was no longer on Xia Yan, but on her ears.

Xia Yan just hummed the tunes in the form of humming based on the tunes he heard in memory.

Compared with the original version, the quality is a thousand miles away, but Song Lingyun, she has the basic musical literacy.

After listening to a few words, you can hear the signs.

"Stop and start over." Song Lingyun looked at Xia Yan with a solemn expression.

"Slow down. Hum for a while, stop for a while, otherwise I wouldn't be able to write music so fast."

"Oh. Then I'll try my best." Xia Yan nodded immediately.

In the room at night, Xia Yan sat in front of Song Lingyun like a student, humming a tune.

And Song Lingyun listened to a paragraph, stopped for a while, thought for a while, and kept asking Xia Yan for other details.

This progress is actually quite slow.

An hour later, Song Lingyun looked at Xia Yan.

"I'll play it now, and see if it's different from what you imagined?"

The whole song didn't even progress to one-tenth of the part, but Xia Yan was already exhausted. He is not a professional singer, and after humming for a long time, he also felt a little short of breath.

"Okay, let me listen." Xia Yan looked curiously at the electronic piano in front of Song Lingyun.

Song Lingyun took a deep breath, put his hands on the keys, glanced at the piece he had just composed, and dropped his fingers lightly.

In the next second, a moving electronic piano melody sounded in the room.

At this moment, Xia Yan's expression froze.

It is different from the rhythm of the parallel world version "All the secret bases you gave me~" that Xia Yan heard in his memory, but the prelude tune
Really substituting Xia Yan's memory into the scene of the unheard flower name in an instant.

"Crack!!!!"

This piece of playing only lasted for more than 20 seconds before it ended, because it only reached this place.

But Xia Yan clapped his hands excitedly.

"Amazing! Song Lingyun, you are really amazing." Xia Yan's eyes lit up.

"This is genius!"

What kind of music genius, what kind of gimmick that a high school piano student won an award, sounds like nothing.

But now, after the other party showed his hand in front of him, Xia Yan felt deeply.

It turns out that Song Lingyun is so handsome.

Song Lingyun looked at Xia Yan's excited expression, the light in his eyes lit up.

In the past ten years of her life, many people have shown her the expression "You are so amazing!", and she has long been used to it.

But at this moment, Xia Yan's compliment is very useful to her.

"Do you think there is any problem with the performance just now?"

Song Lingyun looked at Xia Yan.

"It sounds good, but the rhythm is different from what I thought. There are some places where it should be a little heavier, but it feels much more cheerful when it is played."

Xia Yan and Song Lingyun began to discuss the performance just now.

Song Lingyun basically understood what Xia Yan meant when he heard Xia Yan's words.

It's the ups and downs of pitch, the difference between high and low pitches is different from Xia Yan's requirements.

Xia Yan didn't understand music theory, so he explained to him that it was useless, and he could only try out the notes that Xia Yan thought were inappropriate.

Honestly. Manipulating it like this, progress is very slow.

two hours later.
It was already eleven o'clock in the evening, and the composition of this short piece of music was considered complete.

Xia Yan looked at the time with a dazed expression.

He imagined that if Song Lingyun could help compose a song for a few minutes, the work might be finished in one night, but he didn't expect that it took such a long time to make this achievement.

"It's getting late, I'm leaving. I'll come back tomorrow." Song Lingyun got up.

"Well, I feel that this job may take you several days. It's a bit uncomfortable to ask you to help for free. What can I help you with?" Xia Yan asked hesitantly.

"If I was looking for something in return from you, I wouldn't have come to help you." Song Lingyun looked at Xia Yan with watery eyes, and said calmly.

"The time spent is unmatched by any reward you exchange."

"I will be willing to agree to your request, just because I think I will have fun in the process."

"The result?" Xia Yan asked after a pause.

"I think it's okay." Song Lingyun thought for a while, then smiled slightly.

"I originally wanted to come here to watch you make a fool of yourself. A person who doesn't know much about music theory suddenly told me that he thought of a piece of excellent music and asked me to help compose it. I think you must have lost your mind. But Actually."

"Tonight, I witnessed the emergence of a very good piece of music. Moreover, this piece of music was composed in my hands. I feel quite accomplished. I like this piece of music very much. You don't have to think it will You owe me a favor, what pressure is there?"

Xia Yan was silent when he heard the words.

As the so-called gentleman is magnanimous, maybe this is Song Lingyun, but he certainly does not have Song Lingyun's level, and he still feels that he has taken advantage of her.

"Sense of accomplishment? Well... since you like this song." Xia Yan thought for a while.

"Do you want to have a name?"

"Named?" Song Lingyun looked at Xia Yan curiously upon hearing this.

"Of course, all the commercial copyrights of this song must belong to me. After the score is completed, this will definitely be clear when the copyright is registered. However, you can also name the co-creator column, help I composed the music score, which is also to assist me in my creation. You are not short of money anyway, and I can’t give you anything in return. If you like this song, you can add your pen name "Ning Yun" after the creator of the song .”

Song Lingyun fixed her eyes on Xia Yan when she heard the words.

"Are you serious?"

In fact, Song Lingyun is really tempted, it's not that she wants such a false name, it's just that she really likes this song, if Xia Yan is willing to let her be named in the creator column.It's like the ancient emperors liked to stamp their own seals on their favorite landscape paintings. After stamping that stamp, the painting was not created by them, but they would feel a sense of accomplishment psychologically.

"What's the matter? The copyright is in my hands. As for the creators, it doesn't matter. I'm a novelist, not a music creator." Seeing Song Lingyun's expression, Xia Yan said quickly.

Song Lingyun looked at the sheet music in his hand. Then he let out a long breath.

"Then don't regret it. If this song is selected as the theme song of the animation and becomes famous at that time, it will make a big difference whether you are the independent composer of this song or co-created with others. At least until At that time, the filter of talented musicians in the eyes of fans will be much smaller."

"Do you think I'm a talented musician? Is the filter useful if I want it? As soon as someone asks me a few words about Doremi's instigation on stage, I'll reveal everything." Xia Yan said with a smile on his face. .

Song Lingyun looked at Xia Yan carefully, and remembered his humming with incomplete tone in the past few hours.
A smile emerged from her chest, the coldness on her face dissipated instantly, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Without saying anything, he put his electronic organ on his back and left.
