The unfamiliarity of their first meeting turned into familiarity during the chat. After exchanging contact information, both parties talked about their current work, and Wang Hailin gave a detailed introduction to the film.

"This is a romantic action movie, the serious kind."

I don't know what he was worried about, but he emphasized this sentence and then continued.

"It's pretty much the same as what's circulating online. It's a movie with time-travel elements, and it's closely related to the Terracotta Warriors and the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang. It also incorporates some fantasy elements, and the film was shot on location."

"On-location filming? The Chang'an Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum actually agreed to this request."

Zhu Zhichang, who was following behind the two of them, said in surprise.

As the eighth wonder of the world, the preciousness of the Terracotta Warriors is unquestionable. For many years, no one except cultural relic restorers has been allowed to approach them.

"It's mainly because of Big Brother's face."

Wang Hailin said with a smile.

Lu Qingfeng recalled the information he had looked up online before. He could be regarded as Jackie Chan from another time and space, an international superstar who had a huge influence around the world thanks to his iconic 'Long's Action Comedy'.

Whenever a movie he participates in is filmed locally, everyone from top to bottom will basically give him face. He is a true user of the Face Fruit ability.

In this regard, he is even better than many Hollywood stars.

"It's a pity that we can't meet."

Lu Qingfeng was quite curious about what the real person looked like.

"During post-production, Big Brother often came here. Now that the film is almost finished, as the lead actor, he's about to start promoting it. The film is being released throughout Asia, so his schedule is very tight."

This is how blockbuster movies are treated.

Promotion and marketing begins from the moment the project is launched and continues until the film is taken off the screen in theaters.

Because of the large investment, the pressure to recoup the investment is also great. Similar to Hollywood's big-budget movies, the publicity and promotion costs are even equal to the production costs.

"If the theme song is selected, there will be a chance to meet you."

Wang Hailin comforted him.

As an artist who has been popular for decades, it is not an exaggeration to say that the younger generation of stars in the circle grew up watching Chen Yuanlong's movies. He thinks Lu Qingfeng is also one of his fans.

Lu Qingfeng nodded.

He brought the two of them behind a group of sound production staff and said to one of them.

"Let's do this for now, and play the movie once."

After saying that, he turned to Lu Qingfeng.

"As for the plot, you can figure it out yourself. I won't tell you about it, so as not to affect your thinking."

After expressing his gratitude, Lu Qingfeng looked at the screen in front of him.

The movie is basically finished, except that the opening and ending subtitles have not been added, it is no different from watching the main film.

The movie begins with Princess Yusu of Korea marrying into the Qin Dynasty for the purpose of peace.

Meng Yi, the imperial general who was ordered by Qin Shi Huang to escort the princess, went to meet her halfway, but encountered a Korean army that wanted to kidnap the princess. In the chaos, the two fell off a cliff.

Then there is a transition and the scene comes to the modern era.

It turns out that the opening scene is a dream of the protagonist, archaeologist Jack, and the story unfolds from there.

The film adopts a dual narrative structure. The ancient line focuses on the acquaintance and love between a foreign princess and a Qin general, while the modern line revolves around the connection between the protagonist and his dreams.

In the last thirty minutes of the film, the two lines merge into one, and the destinies spanning two thousand years meet in the underground Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang.

The princess waited for more than two thousand years, but in the end her General Meng Yi never came.

Lu Qingfeng had watched the movie "The Myth" in his previous life. Although he had forgotten many details because it was too long ago, he still remembered the general plot.

Especially the part where the protagonist enters the underground imperial mausoleum and meets the princess who has taken the elixir of immortality, because in the setting of the movie, the walls of the imperial mausoleum are made of meteorites that can allow people to float.

The two of them dancing in each other's arms in the air is a classic scene.

"The theme song will be used here and here."

While watching, Wang Hailin would point out to him which scenes would use the songs.

After watching the movie, Lu Qingfeng was basically certain that this movie was not much different from the ones he had seen, and the theme song from his previous life was naturally suitable.

"Any ideas?"

After the movie ended, Wang Hailin asked him.

Lu Qingfeng lowered his head in deep thought, not because of anything else, but because he recalled the song "Beautiful Myth" again.

This song was also in his memory, but there was no specific music score. He had broken it down before coming and knew every aspect of the song by heart.

However, the reality is that this is his first time seeing the movie, so it is not appropriate for him to sing this song right away; some preparation is needed.

After a long silence, he slowly spoke.

"I have some ideas, and Brother Wang can also help me with some pointers."

After a brief pause, he continued.

"In the movie, the princess waited alone in the underground imperial mausoleum for two thousand years to fulfill a vow, and finally waited for the reincarnation of General Meng Yi. However, the mausoleum eventually collapsed, and the exit was just one step away. The princess finally gave up and left with Jack."

"Because at that time she knew that the person she was waiting for was already dead. Although they had the same face, the modern Jack was not Meng Yi after all."

"A thousand years of lonely waiting is both a myth and a tragedy."

“So, regret can be the theme of a song.”

Wang Hailin nodded, this was the same idea as his composition.

"And then……"

Lu Qingfeng pinched his chin, as if thinking and interpreting the movie while formulating his ideas for the song.

"The film adopts a narrative structure with two timelines, modern and ancient. The composition structure also fits the characteristics of the film, integrating popular music techniques with classical charm."

The faster he spoke, the more his thoughts became clearer.

"The love between the general and the princess is actually a forbidden one, which cannot be discovered by anyone. Therefore, the main theme should be a suppressed passion. The princess came for a marriage, and everything she has does not belong to herself, but to her country and her people."

"The general is loyal and brave. Both of them know that this relationship shouldn't exist, but feelings can't be controlled, so they both yearn for love."

As he spoke, he walked to the electronic keyboard used for music.

“The prelude should fit the film’s interwoven time and space structure, have a sense of mystery with mythological elements, and at the same time set the tone for the tragedy of the regretful ending.”

As your fingers lightly touch the piano keys, a beautiful, majestic and catchy melody sounds.

The people at the scene watched as the boy seemed to be immersed in his own musical structure.

They are all professionals, even the agent Zhu Zhichang understands music, and as soon as the melody sounded, he felt it was right.

Perhaps just by looking at each other, they can understand each other's thoughts. Is this the so-called realm of genius?

In fact, Lu Qingfeng was not as immersed in the music as many people thought, because the melody was all in his mind, and he was just showing off his skills.

Isn’t the purpose of studying music theory so hard to be able to openly play the classic music from previous lives in your mind on occasions like this?

If we just rely on the system, we can’t perform like this on the spot.

Based on my own understanding, I quickly completed the main part of the song. Although it is still a bit rough and needs to be modified, I can already hear the beautiful melody of this live-produced song.

"call."

After it was over, Lu Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief. Before he could say anything, he heard applause coming from the door.
