Many people think that the previous era is better than the present, even the Confucian saint who was two thousand years ago is no exception.

At that time, Confucius criticized the era and used the term "libang music bad". At that time, music could only be enjoyed by the inform class. Master Kong used this to refer to the system at that time.

Although it was a reference, there were still many musical instruments at that time, and every country in the Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States had its own musical instruments. We are all familiar with them, such as chimes. At that time, chimes and new bells were also popular on a large scale, as well as in the Book of Songs. There have been many "qin", "se" and "sheng". At that time, there were even more small-scale musical instruments: some movies and televisions occasionally appeared such as xun, 缶, zhu, zheng, yu, flute, flute, etc., and many other things that can only be seen in historical documents.镈, 镛, 铙, Sheng Zhong, Song Zhong, jade chime, stroke, 龠 and so on.

There were a lot of musical instruments in the era, but many people now even have few people who can play. As a last resort, Fang Xi only used a small number of ancient musical instruments, such as chimes, when he made "Assassin's Creed: Spring and Autumn" in China. , Xiao, Dizi, Guzheng, etc., but also used some instruments such as pipa and erhu that were not born at that time.

In short, if you compare the overall quality of "Assassin", Fang Xi feels that the music is still slightly inferior, not that it is not good, but that it has not reached the state of Fang Xi's ideals. The summary is that the ancient Chinese musical instruments are not at present. It is not popular. Hongyi Studio tried to find people who can perform, but let alone the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra in front of us, it is a bit difficult to form a four-member group.

In the end, on the one hand, there are not enough talents for ancient musical instruments in reality, and on the other hand, music should also be considered to be integrated into the times.

Therefore, the final soundtrack in the assassin game is to find a professor from the Music Department of Haifang University to integrate part of the Chinese music to form his own style.

Today's symphony orchestra is playing the score of the assassin that Fang Xi handed to them a week ago, a complete Western music performance.

For this "small concert", Fang Xi prepared two short films, both of which are mime, so as to maximize the characteristics of the music.

The players under the stage were already stupid.

Yu Jiashu said the aspirations of many people:

"My little master, I never expected that the first time I listened to a concert in my life was actually standing in the game venue..."

On the screen, there was a glimpse of the scenery of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States, and then the flying eagle's angle of view was raised, and his gaze surrendered to the north. An empire over there was slowly rising in an irreversible trend.

The perspective is focused on a teenager. The audience watched him go through the war, watched him go through all kinds of hardships in life, watched him wandered and distressed, watched this good world turn into scorched earth.

Finally, under the witness of the audience, he put on the assassin's hood, and accompanied by a crisp eagle, he jumped off the wall of the city gate.

The first short film is relatively more relevant to the lives of the people during the Warring States period.

Although the battle for hegemony of the princes in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period sounds domineering, it is a history of blood and tears for the people at that time.

The so-called Spring and Autumn Five Hegemons and the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period are nothing more than a few flesh-and-blood mills. These mills have devoured the quiet and peaceful life of the common people.

The accusation of the war in the short film is very strong, so the orchestra is also handy from the manipulation, and it is easy for the players to substitute the perspective of the assassin. Anger, injustice, revenge, etc. mean blessings and revenge begins.

When Fang Xi was reading "Historical Records", he also thought about why Tai Shigong wanted to make a biography for the assassins?

Because the assassins are the embodiment of a kind of spirit, they help the weak and save the danger, save life and death. What Tai Shigong praised was the chivalrous spirit of the assassins' "skills dying for their confidants".

"This righteousness may or may not be achieved, but its intentions are relatively clear, not to deceive its ambitions, it is arrogant to be named after generations!" This is Tai Shi Gong's praise to the assassins in history.

In other words, the assassin is a group of people who are unfettered and live only with their own heart. This is also the charm of the assassin.

So in this game, Fang Xi didn't want to talk about what pieces of Eden could destroy the world or something. The assassin is the last weapon of civilians. This is the concept Fang Xi wants to convey.

So the second short film is about the revenge and redemption of the protagonist of the short film.

The destruction of the Six Kingdoms by Qin was the first very complicated war in the history of China. On the one hand, the Qin army was powerful and they had a unified vision. On the other hand, the war had been going on for a long time at that time, and every vassal state began to gradually become corrupt. Domestic land acquisitions were serious, and the people did not have a livelihood. Among them, the princes and nobles of the Wei Kingdom have the habit of tree terraces in Daliang City.

The higher the terrace, the more respected the identity. In summer, princes and nobles like to dance and sing on the terrace. It sounds like a very good life-if their terrace is not built by oppressive civilians.

Hundreds of terraces echoed each other, Qinggemanwu concealed the voice of soldiers outside Daliang City, but on the highest terrace was the drunk King Wei.

A group of princes and princes gathered together and achieved a plan to force the people to go up to the tower to resist the Qin army.

At this time, the protagonist, who had been buried for a long time, finally appeared, wearing an iconic assassin hood, rising from the water to make the king a sword to the head. The princes and nobles were in chaos, but two other assassins appeared in the water. Soon, the terrace area returned to calm.

The order was not passed on, and the three assassins took the initiative to open the city gate, and then fled away.

In the sound of Xiao Suo's music, the assassin's actions also came to an end. To the surprise of many audiences, the assassin's successful operation did not mean much happiness in it. Xiao Suo and sleepiness were the themes of the three young assassins.

Eventually they returned to the terrace. Standing on it, watching the Qin army entering the city did not treat the civilians well, they raised their hoods again and jumped off the 100-meter-high terrace.

Here also ushered in the only line in the short film. Fang Xi specially invited a professional voice actor to spend three days in Chinese, and recorded two short sentences with a little singing.

"Walking in the dark and serving the light, everything is empty and everything is allowed."

Subtitles are displayed at the bottom of the video in due course:

"Lineinthedark, Servethelight. Nothing is true, everyone permitted"

The short film ended with a stunning leap of faith, and finally the screen also showed a sentence that players were familiar with last year:

"WeareAssassin!"

The short film officially ended, and then the scene was silent for ten seconds with thunderous applause~

In the tide of applause, Yu Jiashu slapped his hands excitedly. While applauding, he was busy exchanging opinions with the roommate beside him to express his excitement.

Backstage Fang Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the reaction of the players and the audience. For every creator, of course, they believe that their work can cause a sensation.

But after the actual market test, everyone will be uneasy, but fortunately, it seems that the assassin has finally been favored by the players.
