Chapter 37 A Song
"The quality of the songs is all very high. "Water Dragon Song", "Kyushu Tong", "Xiang Wang Xing", "End of the World Bright Moon"... There are supportive people in the team for each song. The discussion is very intense and deadlocked. When will you Come and take a look when you have time?"

Before leaving the country, Han Jiadong received a call from Zhang Yimou.

He will not participate in the first round of auditions for "Spring Knife" and plans to return to China for the final casting after all the actors for "300" have been selected.

"I don't have time recently. You are professionals. You can figure it out yourself."

Zhang Yimou smiled bitterly, this is really a happy trouble.

However, he also knew that Han Jiadong was really busy during this period, so he didn't force it anymore.

But before hanging up the phone, he thought about other undecided programs, and his heart moved again.

"In addition to song performances, we have also decided on a martial arts performance and a drama performance. However, we are still undecided on whether to choose Sichuan Opera or Peking Opera for the drama program. Do you have any ideas?"

"I don't understand drama."

Han Jiadong said truthfully.

Speaking of which, he was born in Sichuan and grew up in Jingdi.

When Zhang Yimou heard what he said, the sadness on his face couldn't help but become more serious.

"People in my own country can't understand it, and those foreigners must not be able to understand it. And a show can only be divided into two or three minutes. What can be performed in this small amount of time?"

Normal drama programs usually start at half an hour.

Two or three minutes...are not even enough to get started.

Seeing how distressed he was, Han Jiadong was moved and said, "How about you try to perform with a song? I have a song here..."

He stopped mid-sentence: "Forget it, not many foreigners can understand the lyrics."

Zhang Yimou was intrigued by him: "What song? I don't understand the lyrics, but the emotions contained in the music are similar. It's better than a group of people in costumes just going on stage and performing a show."

Han Jiadong thought the same thing: "Okay, I'll find someone to practice first, and then let the singer go directly to you, and you can decide whether to use it or not."

After hanging up the phone, while there was still time, Han Jiadong contacted national team player Tan Jing through someone and made an appointment with him in a recording studio.

After meeting, they briefly explained the reason and then placed the newly written lyrics and music score in front of Tan Jing.

I saw two powerful characters written at the top of the score: Chi Ling
The two best versions of this song in previous lives were two national team players: Li Yugang and Tan Jing.

But Li Yugang has not made his debut yet, so he may not be able to find him in a short time.

Even if it can be found, it is not certain whether the singing skills can achieve the expected results.

In comparison, Tan Jing is young and has already appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala four times.

There is no doubt about the strength.

Tan Jing was extremely excited when she heard that she had the opportunity to represent her country on the Olympic performance stage.

But when I heard the song was written by the little boy in front of me, most of the excitement was gone.

Out of politeness, I didn't show any strange expression on my face. I picked up the lyrics and started reading.

Soon, the excitement that disappeared ran from his heart to his face.

"Can you really sing this song to me?"

Tan Jing looked at Han Jiadong expectantly and cautiously.

She held the lyrics and music tightly in her arms, as if she was afraid of being snatched away.

Han Jiadong said: "This depends on your performance."

Tan Jing trembled in her heart: Is he hinting at something to me?

There was nothing she could do about it. She didn't know Han Jiadong before, so he suddenly asked her out, sent her a song, and said she had a chance to be on the Olympic stage. It was hard not to think too much.

Han Jiadong wasted no time: "Time is pressing, please sing it to me first."

"Ah?" Tan Jing didn't respond.

Han Jiadong looked at her doubtfully: "Is there a problem?"

"No... no problem." Tan Jing shook her head quickly.

Take a deep breath and start getting ready.

After turning her attention to singing, her expression quickly returned to normal, distracting thoughts gradually disappeared, and her heart felt clear. As the prelude played, she spoke slowly.

"When the play breaks, the sleeves rise and fall
……

In troubled times, duckweed endures to watch the beacon fire burning mountains and rivers

I am humble and dare not forget about my country, even if no one knows me

People in the audience walked by and could not see the old color.

People on the stage sang, a heartbreaking farewell song
......"

After singing a song, she burst into tears.

Han Jiadong was also silent.

He thought of a certain actor.

If this song was used to invite him to once again put on a costume and perform on the Olympic stage, wouldn't he leave this world without any regrets?
Shaking his head to dispel the negative emotions in his mind, he looked at Tan Jing: "This song is yours. I'll tell you the details later."

Tan Jing paused in wiping her tears, then raised her head and looked at Han Jiadong in surprise.

It's that simple?
There is actually another version of lyrics for the song "Chi Ling", and that version of lyrics is more suitable for the Olympic stage.

At the end, "We are China, our legacy will continue for thousands of years, and we will continue with a new chapter" just reflects the brilliance of China today.

However, if you use that version to write the lyrics, it will have nothing to do with the drama.

It's just a song in a pure sense, it's better to just use "Yellow Race" or "Chinese".

Although this version is sad, as long as the instrumental performance is put at the back, it can play the role of suppressing first and then rising.

After instructing Tan Jing, Han Jiadong rushed to the airport without stopping.

He had already told Tan Jing to go find Zhang Yimou after practicing.

Zhang Yimou is willing to adopt it. He will have plenty of time to give detailed guidance when he comes back later.

If it is not adopted, no one will have to waste that time.

at the same time.

The auditions for "Xiu Chun Knife" are also going on as scheduled.

"Eh? Uncle Xiaoyao, why are you here too?"

Liu Yifei was quite surprised to meet Hu Ge at the audition hotel.

Seeing that many people were looking at him, Hu Ge smiled shyly and said, "Isn't this just following your advice? Since the crew is without you, many scenes cannot be filmed, so I also submitted my resume to give it a try."

"Which role were you auditioning for?"

"Male No. 3 Jin Yichuan."

"Then you and Jiang Yiyan are auditioning as a couple!"

Liu Yifei pointed at Jiang Yiyan who was coming with her: "My classmate, Jiang Yiyan."

Then he introduced to Jiang Yiyan: "The male protagonist of the drama I am filming is Hu Ge."

Jiang Yiyan looked at Hu Ge curiously, and after confirming that she really didn't know or heard of him, she couldn't help but wonder, thinking about why he could play the leading role with Liu Yifei.

With a smile on his face, he took the initiative to reach out and shake Hu Ge's hand.

The three of them chatted for a while and then went separately to wait outside the corresponding audition room.

Where Jiang Yiyan went, almost all the people waiting there were new faces. She only knew Yang Mi, who had participated in director Han Jiadong's previous film, which gave her a little confidence.

Most of the places Hu Ge went to were already famous stars, such as Deng Chao, Qiao Zhenyu, Ren Quan...

With just one glance, the trace of fantasy he still had in his heart was instantly extinguished.

When Liu Yifei arrived outside the room where she was auditioning, she almost pulled her mother and turned away.

Zhang Baizhi, Zhang Ziyi, Fan Bingbing, Zhao Yanzi, Zhou Xun, Gao Yuanyuan...
