Chapter 204 A New Beginning

The later stages of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" and "Soldier Assault" were both filmed here in the capital.

After Xu Chuan finished filming, he immediately got back into work here without taking a break.

At this point in time, perhaps only work can make Xu Chuan think less.

Just like Lin Mengying and Qiu Yicheng have been traveling outside.

Speaking of which, most of the post-production work for "Soldier Assault" has actually been completed.

What Xu Chuan has to do now is to review the film and discuss the announcement with the people at CCTV.

As mentioned before, "Soldier Assault" was originally scheduled to be broadcast on CCTV 8 on August 1. The reason for choosing this date does not need to be explained too much.

According to the plan, CCTV One will premiere the first episode on Thursday, August 8.

It will not be broadcast on Saturdays, but one episode will be broadcast every day from Sunday to Friday.

"Soldier Assault" has a total of 30 episodes. Based on this number, CCTV will finish broadcasting it on September 9.

At the same time, this drama will be launched simultaneously on Tengshi on August 8.

Different from CCTV, TengTV premieres 4 episodes, one episode per day for members from Sunday to Friday. TengTV will update the finale on September 9, three days earlier than CCTV.

To be honest, Xu Chuan is still a little worried about the negative reviews of "Soldier Assault".

This drama was aired in 06 on Earth.

The reason why it achieved such good results at that time was not only because of the excellent quality of the drama itself.

Another aspect is that the main form of entertainment for the public at that time was watching TV.

Live TV broadcasts couldn't be fast-forwarded, so people were much more patient with film and television works than people are now.

Nowadays, it is normal for everyone to watch dramas at double speed. This is partly because the plots of new dramas are not compact, and it is also an objective fact that people have lowered their patience.

Especially after the development of short videos, the audience's patience has been further reduced.

In this environment, Xu Sanduo might have been complained about as a "drama with spicy eyes" because of his irritating appearance at the beginning.

Moreover, those who hold a grudge against Xu Chuan will definitely find a way to turn "Soldier Assault" into a "drama with spicy eyes"

In fact, when Xu Chuan was watching the drama, he also thought, could there really be people like Xu Sanduo?Apart from anything else, he couldn't even understand how to turn left or right.

However, when he attended high school and participated in the first military training in his life, he discovered that there really are such players in the world.

When you get to the military training in college, you will see more.

But having said that, a good drama is a good drama, and it is useless to label it as a "spicy eye drama" if you want some people to criticize it.

Xu Sanduo in the early stage of "Soldier Assault" was a bit "unsightly".

But when Xu Chuan went back to watch this drama many years later, he found that the most exciting part of this drama was precisely the days when Xu Sanduo gradually improved from "no eyesight" and always persisted.

When he really became the King of Soldiers, he was not as good-looking as before.

Of course, Xu Chuan thinks that the real beauty of "Soldier Assault" is that every character in it is very vivid.

No matter how big or small the characters are, no matter how long they appear, they are all very vivid.

Even Xu Sanduo, the eldest brother who has very little screen time, has several classic scenes that make people laugh and cry.

In the first episode, the plot where he asked Xu Sanduo to buy him pornographic books was funny and true.

Later, something happened when Xu Sanduo secretly hid explosives at home. Xu Sanduo solved these problems and boarded the train back to the army.

The scene where the eldest brother, who was hiding and afraid to come out, chased the train and yelled to Xu Sanduo on the car in a southern Henan dialect, "Lao San, live a good life" was also touching.

The reason why the audience can have these emotions is actually because this group of vivid and real characters has built a vivid and real world in the play.

This world makes the audience immersed in it, and they instinctively follow the changes in the plot to have emotional ups and downs.

Also participating in the selection of special forces, we will be moved by the "never abandon, never give up" between comrades in "Soldier Assault".

But in the special forces selection plots in some military dramas, no matter how sensational the background music is, the slogans of the characters shout loudly.

To the audience, this plot still looks like a joke.

This is the difference between a good show and a bad show.

So far, Xu Chuan feels that his character creation in this version of "Soldier Assault" is pretty good.

Therefore, although he is a little worried that the 19 audience may not be able to accept Xu Sanduo's stupidity for a while.

But he believes that after everyone watches it, they will have the same feeling as he did when he watched "Soldier Assault".

This drama has great staying power.

In the following days, while Xu Chuan was busy with the post-production work of the two dramas, he would also find time to go to classes with Shen Huajin and Zhu Lanyun.

On the morning of June 6, Xu Chuan came to Shen Huajin's home again. Zhu Lanyun went out for something, and Shen Ping'an was at school.

Therefore, there are only two people in the family, Shen Huajin and Xu Chuan.

"Is there anything that needs to be changed about the soundtrack of "Soldier Assault"?"

Hearing this, Xu Chuan hurriedly praised: "There is nothing to change, it is very good, otherwise the master is the master. I can't catch up with this music even if I study all my life."

"What are you talking about? You are my disciple, and I am teaching you in this area. If you can't catch up after studying for a lifetime, wouldn't it mean that my master has misled his disciples." When Shen Huajin heard Xu Chuan's words, he immediately laughed. joked.

"You finally discovered that there is something wrong with your teaching method. You see, Teacher Zhu teaches very well. She never scolds me. Why don't you learn from it." Shen Huajin teased Xu Chuan, and Xu Chuan naturally joked back. .

"Hahahaha." After Shen Huajin heard Xu Chuan's words, he immediately laughed.

He quite liked Xu Chuan joking with him, and the teacher felt uncomfortable holding each other.

Moreover, for most of the soundtrack of "Soldier Assault", Xu Chuan provided long or short main themes, and Shen Huajin just relied on these melodies provided by Xu Chuan to expand.

Therefore, the two of them were joking from the beginning.

After laughing for a while, Xu Chuan said: "Master, it will be your 75th birthday in a few days. Do we really just have a meal at home? How about inviting some relatives and friends to set up a few tables for a lively meal?"

"Forget it, forget it, I don't like this. No matter how many people shout, it's not good for our family to sit together and have a meal." Shen Huajin heard this and quickly waved his hand.

After saying that, he seemed to have thought of something and said to Xu Chuan: "By the way, you can call Lin Mengying over then."

Affected by Shen Pingan, Shen Huajin always thought that Xu Chuan was in love with Lin Mengying.

As for Qiu Yicheng's side of things, Shen Huajin didn't know much about it.

Xu Chuan and Lin Mengying have not been in contact for more than a month. Now when he heard Shen Huajin suddenly mention her, Xu Chuan suddenly felt a little panicked.

He pretended to be natural and shook his head at Shen Huajin and said, "She, she can't come. She should be filming her travel diary over there in Xinyi now."

Although Xu Chuan pretended to be natural, Shen Huajin still keenly felt that something was wrong with Xu Chuan.

So, he asked tentatively: "Is your relationship okay between you two? There are no conflicts, right?"

"No, don't worry."

"Oh, that's it. Next time when she comes back, remember to bring her to play at home. Master Zhu and I haven't seen this girl yet. You look like a romantic kid, and I don't know how you usually treat her. How are you, girl?" Shen Huajin asked.

"You have wronged me. Who looks so charming?"

"You know whether you are wronged or not. Let me tell you, young people should be careful about sex. You are now famous at a young age, and you are in the entertainment industry.

There are too many temptations to face, so you must control yourself.Don't capsize the boat in the gutter, do you know that? "Shen Huajin has wanted to tell Xu Chuan these words for a long time, but he has never found the opportunity.

Now I finally said what I was talking about.

Xu Chuan didn't really want to talk about this topic, and he wasn't someone who couldn't resist temptation. Otherwise, his personal life would have been a mess.

Qiu Yicheng and Lin Mengying are indeed different.

Thinking of this, Xu Chuan quickly responded: "I know Master, you have to have some confidence in me."

"No matter what, you can't go wrong if you are careful." Shen Huajin was still a little worried.

Hearing this, Xu Chuan changed the subject and said, "Master, how is the writing of the song to celebrate your 70th anniversary going?"

"Don't mention it, it's almost July now, and there's still not one song that I'm completely satisfied with. It's almost boring." Shen Huajin scratched his head when he mentioned this.

After scratching for a while, Shen Huajin stood up and said, "Just in time, I'll show you what I wrote."

After saying that, he ran to the study and took out the manuscript he had written to show Xu Chuan.

His manuscript is not a piece of paper, but a book with dozens of pages of writing and drawing, most of which are ideas and inspiration materials.

In addition, there are some semi-finished products.

There are only three songs that can really be called finished songs.

Xu Chuan took it and looked through it. The first song was called "Change the World."

After studying for so long, he can already sight-sing.

So, after reading the lyrics and score several times, he simply started singing along line by line.

Seeing Xu Chuan singing, Shen Huajin also started to hum along while tapping the time with his hands.

After singing the song, Shen Huajin shook his head and said, "No, no, no, I didn't feel good at first, and after listening to you finish singing, I felt even worse."

"Master, isn't this good? What's wrong?"

Xu Chuan's words are not flattery, he really thinks it's good, although it's still some distance from some classics.But it's much better than ordinary ones.

"Look at the next song." Shen Huajin did not answer Xu Chuan's question, but asked Xu Chuan to read the next song.

When Xu Chuan heard this, he turned over it again. This song was called "Hymn of Soaring."

Judging from the content of the lyrics, this song and the previous song "Change the World" actually express similar contents.

They all praise the country's achievements in the past 70 years.

Seeing this, Xu Chuan finally understood why Shen Huajin always felt dissatisfied.

Because the lyrics of these two songs are trying to summarize the achievements of these 70 years.

But the problem is that in the past 70 years, the country has made too much progress and achieved too many results.How can one song be written in one piece?

I couldn’t finish it but I had to write it, and the lyrics immediately became big and empty.

How to describe the feeling?
It was like Xu Chuan was watching the dubbing of men's basketball training spoofed on the Internet.That sentence said: "The top priority now is to find the key problem, so what is the key problem? We have to find the key to the problem!

If we cannot solve and find the key problems, we will not solve the key problems. "

Of course, Shen Huajin's lyrics are not necessarily written with this kind of virtue, but it is inevitable to feel this way.

This is very inconsistent with Shen Huajin's preferences.

He has always emphasized to Xu Chuan that such large and empty lyrics will not have any vitality and continuity.

It might have looked good at the time, but upon second viewing, it seemed pretentious and boring.

Thinking of this, Xu Chuan turned the manuscript to the end again.

The last song is called "Bless the Motherland". The idea of ​​this song is obviously different from the first two songs.

It naturally also celebrates 70 years of development.But there is no sense of wanting to "summarize actual results" like the first two songs.

It focuses more on the spiritual continuation of the nation and blessings for the future of the motherland.

Society is changing with each passing day, and there will be a big change in ten years.

But the national spirit composed of beautiful qualities such as "hard work, perseverance, fear of difficulties, courage to fight, and peace-loving" in our hearts will last forever.

It is indeed much better to praise this and wish the motherland a better future than to summarize it before.

So Xu Chuan sang "Blessings to the Motherland" along with the score, then turned to Shen Huajin and said, "Master, the last song is good, I think it's okay."

"The lyrics are passable, but the music is not up to par and not catchy." Shen Huajin shook his head.

"Master, your demands on yourself are too high." Xu Chuan said helplessly to Shen Huajin.Just these three songs, I guess I may not be able to write them in my lifetime.

"This year marks the 70th anniversary. I am also 75 this year. Although I was born before the founding of the People's Republic of China, I grew up after the founding of the People's Republic of China. The development history of the country is also my personal growth history.

The country will have another 70 years, and the next 70 years, but I don’t have it anymore.So I have to come up with the best piece of music to celebrate the motherland’s birthday. "

When Shen Huajin said these words, Xu Chuan felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and he said: "Master, your work is good enough, so don't worry about it.

Besides, when we celebrate the 2029th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China in 80, you will have to celebrate the birth of the motherland again. "

"It's not certain whether I can survive until 2029." Shen Huajin heard this and said to Xu Chuan with a smile.

"Bah, bah, bah." Xu Chuan immediately started bahting when he heard this, "Master, you will only be 2029 years old in 85. What do you mean by whether you can live to that time? Don't say this again in the future. It's too much. It’s auspicious.”

"Is there anything that is auspicious or unlucky? Your master and I are old party members for more than 50 years. I don't believe in this kind of thing. Besides, since ancient times, no one has died, as long as he doesn't..."

"Oh, why are you talking about this? Can you please stop saying this?" Seeing that Shen Huajin wanted to continue talking, Xu Chuan quickly interrupted.

He really couldn't listen to this thing.

The eternal separation between heaven and man is the biggest source of pain in Xu Chuan's heart.

My family on earth will never be seen again.

Xu Chuan really wants to spend more time with Blue Star's family.

Here, the only people he could call his family were Shen Huajin's family of three, Lin Mengying and Qiu Yicheng.

Now, Lin Mengying and Qiu Yicheng seem to be gradually moving away from themselves.

Shen Huajin started talking about "death" again.

This made Xu Chuan feel extremely bad in an instant.

"Okay, okay, don't talk about this, don't talk about this, you are quite a grown man, why are you still acting like a child." Seeing Xu Chuan's mood drop, Shen Huajin smiled and patted Xu Chuan on the head.

After finishing speaking, he did not wait for Xu Chuan to reply, but continued: "You, are you busy with the post-production matters recently? Can you take some time to do something else?"

"What else?"

"Take this manuscript of mine and see if you can help me revise it. My thinking seems to be solidified. I am old and can't twist a muscle." Shen Huajin said and patted Xu Chuan's hand again. head.

"I'll try my best." Xu Chuan nodded after hearing this.

Then he opened Shen Huajin's manuscript. With his level, helping Shen Huajin change the song was just a joke.

However, Xu Chuan felt that the last song "Bless the Motherland" could really be changed.

Because of the lyrics of this song, Xu Chuan always felt a little familiar.It is quite close to the meaning expressed by a classic among classics on earth.

Of course, only the meaning of the lyrics is similar, but the writing method of the lyrics and the music are still very different.

If you really want to change it, it's no different than rewriting a song.

If a song is rewritten, is it still considered Shen Huajin's work?
If the songs don't count, can Shen Huajin's wish to offer a gift to the motherland still be fulfilled?
Thinking of this, Xu Chuan turned to Shen Huajin and said, "Master, I'm afraid my changes will be too big."

As soon as Xu Chuan said these words, Shen Huajin immediately understood what he meant.

I saw him smiling and saying: "I just told you that young people should be careful about sex. Do you know what old people should be careful about?"

"Old people should be careful." Xu Chuan naturally knew this.

"Yes, if the changes are too big, then just sign your name and it will be your work." Shen Huajin said with a smile.

"No, Master, that's not what I meant. I don't care whose name it is." Xu Chuan hurriedly explained after hearing this.

"Hey, I don't care either." Shen Huajin said with a laugh.

Then, he continued: "Xiaochuan, I never thought of proving how good I am in composing music and writing lyrics in this day.

For me, I simply feel that at this time, there must be such an excellent song to celebrate the motherland’s birthday.And I happen to have the ability to write songs, so I'm going to try to do this.

Now if you have the ability to do better than me, then I will only be happy.If there are others who can do better than us, that would be even more gratifying.

It’s never about who wrote the song, it’s about the song, you know what I mean?

I'm just afraid that no matter how bad my writing is, it's still good compared to others.I am already old, and I am no longer what I used to be in every aspect. Those who are young and strong should be better than me. "

Hearing Shen Huajin's words, Xu Chuan blinked a few times.

If these words were said by others, Xu Chuan would sneer and think that the other person was just showing off.

But from what Shen Huajin said, Xu Chuan believed it.

The old man’s feelings about his family and country are truly unparalleled by ordinary people. This may be related to his age. As he said, when he was 5 years old, New China was established.

The earliest memory most people can recall is when they were 4 to 5 years old.

It is equivalent to saying that his life started with Xinhua.

Moreover, he also had two sons who sacrificed their lives.

Thinking of this, Xu Chuan smiled at the old man and said, "I know, I will change it as soon as possible."

"Don't be anxious, take your time, work slowly and carefully, and it will be done by September. You are also very busy, don't fool me." Shen Huajin warned.

"No, don't worry, I will come up with a song that will satisfy you when the time comes." Xu Chuan said with a smile.

Since Shen Huajin was afraid that he would be fooled by writing too fast, Xu Chuan thought that he might as well bring the classics in his mind to Shen Huajin in September.

He will definitely be satisfied with that song.

"That's good, that's good." Shen Huajin was very happy to hear Xu Chuan say that.

Before he asked Xu Chuan to write, Xu Chuan always found excuses to refuse, but now he finally changed his mind.

To be honest, Shen Huajin has more confidence in Xu Chuan than Xu Chuan himself has in himself.

Now that Xu Chuan said he could write a song that would satisfy everyone, Shen Huajin believed that Xu Chuan would definitely be able to write it.

That’s pretty much it for this topic.

After talking about this, Shen Huajin began to tell Xu Chuan some music knowledge.

Every time Xu Chuan comes back, he will seize the time to teach Xu Chuan. Xu Chuan is too busy and he is old, so he cannot seize the time.

In this way, it was not until night that Xu Chuan left Shen Huajin.

Although after coming back for the New Year's Eve dinner this year, there was a Xu Chuan's bedroom here.

But in the later period, the company was still a bit far away from here. For convenience, Xu Chuan stayed in a nearby hotel.

After returning to the hotel, Xu Chuan lay on the bed and browsed the updates of Lin Mengying and Qiu Yicheng as usual, wanting to see what they were doing recently.

Unfortunately, there have been no updates on their social media accounts in the past few days.

However, Xu Chuan is not worried about the safety of the two of them, because he hired their security guards. From all aspects, they are relatively reliable.

Moreover, if Xu Chuan is really worried and asks them about Lin Mengying and Qiu Yicheng's situation, they will tell Xu Chuan the truth.

It's just that Xu Chuan has never done this, because it will develop the habit of spying on Lin Mengying and Qiu Yicheng.

In fact, Lin Mengying and Qiu Yicheng also knew that these two security guards would listen to Xu Chuan.

But they did not fire the two security guards.

On the contrary, I specially brought these two with me when I traveled.

This is the reason why Xu Chuan can bear it and not go to them, because there is still a thread between the three of them.

Actually there is more than one.

Qiulingjiangshui, a company invested by three people, is another thread.

With these lines continuing, it would be impossible for the three of them to really break off their relationship so easily.

Now it seems that Lin Mengying and Qiu Yicheng have no intention of cutting off these threads.

Whether it will be cut off in the future, no one knows.

Everyone needs time to think about the next step.

It is even more necessary to think about how to deal with the relationship and positioning between them.

If you figure it out, everyone will have a new beginning.

This new beginning may be good or bad.

 Thanks to [Fat Dragon Baby] for the reward
