1980 My Entertainment Era

Chapter 214: Jinyiwei, the collapse of rituals and music
This boosted the morale of the crew and gave Director Wang confidence, and the Red Mansions crew continued to move forward steadily.

Moreover, the film version team is not poaching people anymore, maybe they have a change of heart, or maybe they just can’t poach anymore.

Because Xia Tian's words had a significant impact, the crew members and actors were all very convinced.

Even his words spread.

Even the crew of the movie version knows about this five wins and five losses theory.

After all, they are all in Yanjing, and Yanjing Film Studio and CCTV are very close to each other.

Besides, we are all in the same circle, so how can there be any secrets?

Xia Tian's remarks not only gave courage and confidence to the TV version, but also added trouble to the film version!
It would be unpleasant for anyone to be poured cold water on a movie when it is still in preparation and hasn't even started shooting!

This is only the case in summer. If it were another student from Yandian, he would probably have to "enjoy a good life" in the future.

After you graduated, you happened to be in the hands of Yan Film Studio. They were the top directors, big productions, and big stars promoting their works. If you were to belittle them, how could you be good? You will be bullied until you grow old~
However, if the person speaking is Xia Tian, ​​it would be a different story.

They are involved in so many fields, including literature, music, film and television, and even sports.

Why do you think so highly of others?

Not to mention that he has already registered with CCTV, even other film studios are also vying for him!

I've heard of catching a small bug, but who's ever heard of catching a big crocodile? !

Although many senior colleagues privately said that Xia Tian was arrogant and talking nonsense.

But no one could do anything to him, so he could only accept it.

Besides, thinking about it privately, this statement does make sense! My heart is also beating fast~
Especially Liu Xiaoqing, who also wrote a letter to Xia Tian, ​​asking him about his opinion on the film version of Dream of the Red Chamber.

Xia Tian: No, if I don’t think it’s good, what else can you do but not act? Why think so much, just act with your heart!
……

School was about to start, and Xia Tian was led by Ma Dudu to go to someone's house.

I want to go abroad, but I'm a bit short of money.

But they have a lot of background and are an old, authentic family, so they plan to sell some things.

It’s hard to bring money abroad anyway, so just clear out your belongings and exchange them for cash.

Of course Ma Dudu wanted to eat it himself, but his mouth was too small to handle it.

Although I ordered two bowls and plates, there were still many things I couldn't afford.

So, I became a broker and earned some commission.

If we talk about antique buyers in this city, Xia Tian is definitely one of the top three choices. Plus, since I don't know him, I can earn commission and sell favors, how great.

Ma Dudu has always been such a smart person.

But Xia Tian doesn’t care. Everyone takes what they need.

You know what, there really is something I like!
Xia Tian chose three things: a jade ring, a gold hairpin, and a piece of clothing!
That dress is perfect for summer!
Draw dragons and phoenixes!
The clothes were embroidered with a mythical beast wrapped around the body, and there was a dragon head-like creature on the chest.

This is the flying fish suit worn by the Jinyiwei of the Ming Dynasty!
It is made of brocade and decorated with flying fish patterns. It is embroidered with a fictional mythical beast with a dragon head, fish body and wings!

This thing is not something that any Jinyiwei can have. It needs to be awarded by the emperor before it can be worn, and only those with higher ranks are eligible to obtain it!
This flying fish suit is surprisingly well preserved, with only very minor wear and tear!
"Fuck! Got him!" Xia Tian immediately paid 25,000 to get him!

This is almost as good as a new house!

The young man selling things was very happy and smiled from ear to ear.

Ma Dudu on the side was also grinning - so fucking rich!
I bought the flying fish suit, but I didn't want to try it on in the summer. I admired it for two and a half days, and school started~
I continued my studies in the summer, nothing much to say.

As a result, when I came back on the first day of school, I saw Milan staring at the TV with a unhappy look on his face.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

Did the TV piss you off?
Milan looked aggrieved: "This TV is actually playing commercials!"

Xia Tian: Huh? Although the advertisement is annoying, your request is too much~
As Milan explained, Xia Tian understood.

It was an advertisement for the Japanese insecticide Levofloxacin. It featured a few animated insects that ran out and started yelling, then sang "We are pests, we are pests" before being sprayed to death!
Milan thought it was a cartoon at first, it was so beautiful.
Two days later, Feng Kuazi revealed a piece of news to Xia Tian - "I'm telling you, Fangyan is dating someone!"

In the summer, when I see the pants like that, I feel jealous and a little bit anxious~
Through Ye Jing, I also learned that the woman was a nurse named Du Mei. She was very generous and had a unique personality, like a girl from Beijing.

Xia Tian saw him the next day. He was very polite and well behaved. But Xia Tian felt that he looked familiar, but after thinking for a long time, he could not figure out where he had seen him before.

As a result, Milan said at night, "I think that female nurse has a special personality. But Fangyan's grandson is just playing around. With their personality, they just want to have fun."

This "enjoyable" experience lights up the memories of summer like lightning!
"Die after having enough of it"!
One of the works in the dialect of another dimension, which was later adapted into the TV series "Get High"!
The protagonists are Fang Yan and Du Mei!
Is this actually a play within a play?
The actor who played Fang Yan was played by Wang Zhiwen, and Du Mei was played by... Jiang Shan!
Wait, will this Ms. Jiang show up again? Xia Tian was quite curious about this.

Well, I have to say Milan is right. If it goes according to the "plot", this couple will be very noisy~
……

Xia Tian doesn't care about their relationship development, as long as no one dies~
However, the crew of the Red Mansions filming sped up their progress after Xia Tian's "leadership skills" boosted their morale.

Soon it was time to film the scene of "Daiyu playing the piano".

In the play, Daiyu is going to play a piece of music called "High Mountains and Flowing Water" to express her true feelings to Baoyu. When her feelings are so deep, the strings break and the music stops.

But Xiaoxu knew nothing about guqin, but after some discussion she was determined not to use a stand-in, and the next day she found a "teacher" from the Central Conservatory of Music through the crew.

The teacher asked Xiaoxu to play a piece for her, wanting to confirm her level. Xiaoxu spread her hands and said, "I can't do it at all."

The teacher looked at her with eyes wide open in surprise: "You have never learned it before, and you are going to play "High Mountains and Flowing Water" the day after tomorrow? Impossible!"

However, Xiaoxu was also stubborn - I don't need to learn it, as long as I can act like it, and besides, it's just this part, so you teach me and I'll try it!
In the end, I had to learn and apply what I learned.

The teacher said, "It's just a matter of doing it this way. I'll play a measure, and you remember it and play it again."

The teacher played a measure three times repeatedly. Xiaoxu memorized the movements and repeated them intermittently.

Xia Tian on the side nodded: Well, you have a good memory!

Teacher: Comrade, what are you doing?
Xia Tian: Teacher, I want to learn to play the piano!

Teacher: If you want to change one into two, you have to pay extra.
After the teacher corrected Xiaoxu’s gestures, he continued to learn/imitate, and he could actually play several bars in a row!
The two were so happy that they didn't know what to say.

Xia Tian on the side: "What's so happy about this?"

As he said that, he started playing the instrument, and it was even better than what Xiaoxu had learned! The movements were so elegant and classical~
The teacher on the side looked at Xia Tian as if he was a monster!

Later the teacher found out: So your name is Xia Tian?!
Xiao Xu rolled his eyes at Xia Tian who was showing off, and asked the teacher for the music score: "Teacher, if you memorize it by rote like this, you will forget it very quickly. Do you have the music score?"

The teacher seemed to have not recovered from Xia Tian yet. He stared at Xia Tian and said to Xiao Xu, "The music score is like a heavenly book. Can you understand it?"

Xiao Xu was proud, "Of course I can understand it, we have learned it!"

When I was training in Yuanmingyuan, my guqin teacher specifically taught me how to read guqin music scores.

It really looks like a heavenly book, and the abbreviated notation is just like the radicals of the Chinese characters.

After that, Xiaoxu started playing according to the music score and didn't find it difficult.

Xia Tian practiced with him and soon he could sing "High Mountains and Flowing Water" fluently.

The top student from the Central Conservatory of Music asked Xia Tian in confusion: "Comrade Xia Tian, ​​how many years have you studied? Your posture is very similar to our teacher's!"

Xia Tian: "Didn't I just learn this? I learned it from you. It's normal to be like your teacher. This thing is quite interesting~"

Seeing that she looked like she was hit hard and couldn't recover, he quickly said, "I have learned other instruments, so I can get the hang of it quickly!"

"Oh? What have you studied?"

Xia Tian: “I can play suona!”

Who dares to fight with me?
Suona! From birth to the seventh day of death, you can always use it~
"Pfft~" Xiao Xu and Zhang Li, Deng Jie and others who were watching the fun all laughed.

……

In the end, it took Xia Tian forty minutes to learn the basics of piano.

Xia Tian: There’s nothing I can do, my hands are obedient, and your little hooves are useless. Don’t hit me, don’t hit me!
Xiaoxu refused to admit defeat and was very competitive, practicing morning and night.

After two days of hard training, the teacher patted Xiaoxu on the shoulder and said, "You are now ready to become a master. Go ahead and cheat your way through!"

Then she looked at Xia Tian and left without saying anything.

On the day of the shoot, Ouyang started to cheer: "Play a piece for us."

Xiao Xu glanced at him and said, "I'm not talking to a cow!"

Xia Tian: "Let me sing a song!"

He held the guqin upright and sang Adele's "Rolling in the Deep"!
"Dachun, play the drums for me!"

Dachun: Just hold it up.
He started banging on the table, the water cup and the stool!

Xiangyun covered her eyes: It’s no good!

The teacher in the school said: That's great. Don't tell others that I taught you to play the piano. Please!

Xia Tian put down his zither: "A song that breaks my heart, where can I find a soulmate in this world~"

Facing the scene of the collapse of rituals and music, everyone was stunned. Finally, Zhang Li asked: "This song..."

"Ah, a new song. It's called... 'Roll to the End'!"

Xiao Xu: You’re going to roll me to death!

……

Soon, Director Wang and his team arrived.

Director Wang asked Xiaoxu: "How is it? Will it be exposed?"

"I graduated from the Central Conservatory of Music, how could I be wrong?" Xiao Xu was confident - it was better than Xia Tian's disarray!

The filming went very smoothly. At the very end, the string suddenly broke. At the moment the string broke, the filming was over.

"Great!" Director Wang raised his head. "I didn't expect that Xiaoxu is also a talented student at the Conservatory of Music!"
