This humble Taoist priest is going to be a movie star!

Actually, Jay Chou has been quite troubled lately.

I have no inspiration for the songs on my new album.

It's a very frustrating thing for a creator.

Just then, Li Lianjie came to find him.

I want to create a song for this movie.

Jay Chou is not short of money. There are only two conditions for him to compose songs for movies: one is that the offer is too much and Jay Chou simply cannot refuse.

"Ocean Heaven" obviously couldn't afford a price that Jay Chou couldn't refuse.

That leaves only the second possibility.

Zhou Jielun read the script for "Ocean Heaven" and found it quite interesting.

The plot is very simple and straightforward, so simple that you can tell the ending just by watching the beginning.

But Zhou Jielun was still interested. The plot was very simple and straightforward, yet it could still touch people's hearts—provided that it could be acted out.

I just don't know what the effect will be when the performance takes place.

If the performance goes well and inspires Zhou Jielun, he wouldn't mind singing a song for "Ocean Heaven" for free.

If the performance is poor, then Jay Chou can't help it.

After all, Jay Chou has talent.

But music doesn't come out of thin air; it needs a trigger, a creative context, and a story.

Coincidentally, Jay Chou, as a musician, has particularly high standards in this regard.

.....

"So, whether we can get Jay Chou to write a song this time depends on the performance we give?"

The middle-aged man playing an important supporting role, the aquarium director, is named Dong Yong, which sounds like the Dong Yong who fell in love with the Seven Fairies. He is a top student who graduated from the Huaxia Academy of Chinese Theatre Arts, majoring in martial arts opera.

He has starred in war dramas and period dramas, so he can be considered a second-tier actor with decent resources.

This time, she came to act in Ocean Heaven for a low fee, thanks to Xue Lu's connections.

At this moment, this highly educated graduate glanced at Li Qing... and even at Li Lianjie.

I felt a little unsure.

These two brothers.

Will the performance really achieve the effect that Jay Chou is satisfied with?

Yes, the plot of this art film is indeed quite simple, but the simpler the plot, the better the performance; otherwise, the result will be bland and uninspired. And if the acting is even slightly subpar...

Not only Dong Yong thought this way, but many supporting actors also thought this way...

This international star's achievements in action scenes are undeniable, but can he really handle the stage performance style of this kind of art film?

Li Lianjie has acted in dramatic roles before, but he has never tried a heartwarming character.

Even Dong Yong felt that he himself didn't know how to handle the role.

Needless to say, Li Qing on the other side is completely out of the question. If Zhang Jiawen, who had only acted in urban dramas before, was completely at odds with this kind of movie plot, then Li Qing, who came from a background of acting in period dramas, was completely at odds with this kind of drama.

How can one actor playing a thug, and another actor chosen to perform well, possibly deliver a good performance?

It seems this time it will be Zhou Jielun's composition.

Hang!

......

It seems Jay Chou has joined the cast of "Ocean Heaven".

They haven't fully joined yet.

Only when the performance here inspires him to create songs will he be able to compose music.

As for whose performance it is...

That naturally involves the performance of the two main characters.

The performances of the two main actors directly influenced whether the film had good music.

Everyone had different thoughts.

At this moment, with one day left before filming begins, Li Qing is in the hotel where she is temporarily staying.

"I'm feeling a bit of pressure, it's Jay Chou."

Li Qing touched his chin.

The entire burden of ensuring the quality of the film's music now rests on our shoulders...

At this moment, Li Qing once again opened the script.

The script for "Ocean Heaven" is very straightforward.

But as most people think, the more straightforward the script, the more important the performance.

How can we maximize the performance effect?

The night is long, and I can't sleep.

It was already 11:30 p.m., and Li Qing was still thinking.

This character has no source material, and his life experiences are not even enough to support a biographical sketch.

At that moment, the phone rang.

It's the QQ chat software.

It's so late, aside from a few people keeping their QQ levels up, there probably aren't many people actually online.

It seems only those who are sleepless and have no desire to sleep are online.

This flashing, familiar cat avatar is one of them.

Upon seeing the cat avatar, Li Qing's brows relaxed somewhat.

He smiled.

Surprisingly.

I changed my profile picture to a cute cat.

"Still not asleep? ━━(｡･∀･)ﾉﾞ━━"

Li Qing smiled as he looked at the message that had been sent.

"Not yet. Filming for 'Ocean Heaven' starts tomorrow, and I'm a little nervous."

Li Qing then said, "For this movie, Brother Li invited Jay Chou."

"Wow! (*ΦωΦ)ﾉ Is that Jay Chou I've been thinking about?"

"Oh, right..."

"!!!! I absolutely love listening to his songs, especially 'Nocturne,' 'Nunchucks,' and 'Love Before BC'!"

There shouldn't be any young people in this era who haven't heard of Jay Chou or don't like him.

Even if there are, there are very few.

Is he on set now?

"Yes, Jay Chou wants to see our live performance. If the performance goes well, he'll compose music for our movie, so I'm a little nervous (cat sweating)."

"Can I go check it out? I can see Jay Chou up close! I can even get his autograph... Will it cause any problems? (Ding!)"

"Sure, there aren't many people in our crew."

"Yay!"

So they agreed that Liu Yifei would come to visit the set when filming started...

For my idol's autograph!

...

"ah!"

At this very moment, in a towering apartment building in Beijing, Liu Yifei, whose hair was still wet after washing it, had a hairdryer on a shelf next to her, which she had secured with a simple stand and placed on her bedside table, blowing it on her head.

The hot wind made her hair all messy, and her forehead felt hot.

It would obviously be better to hold it in your hand and blow it, but this way it's more convenient.

"Ouch!"

Liu Yifei felt her forehead getting hot; she'd been blowing on it for too long, so she quickly changed direction.

Upon hearing Liu Yifei's screams, Sister Ye quickly opened the door and came in.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

"It's nothing, I just got burned by the hairdryer," Liu Yifei said, sticking out her tongue.

Sister Yezi looked at the simple shelf next to Liu Yifei and said speechlessly, "You're really lazy... why don't you just hold this and blow it?"

"Oh dear, I'm a little tired."

Liu Yifei turned her head away, feeling a little guilty.

"What's making you so happy?" Sister Ye noticed Liu Yifei's slightly excited expression.

Liu Yifei chuckled.

"I'm going to visit the set of Qingji Island."

Whose set are you visiting?

"Have you heard of Ocean Heaven, Sister Yezi?"

"Oh...I've heard about it. There was a lot of talk about it in the industry before. Now that things have calmed down, has filming started?"

"Okay, time to turn it on."

"Oh..." Sister Yezi let out a long "oh".

Liu Yifei quickly said, "Jay Chou is going to compose music for Ocean Heaven. I'm just going to see my idol and see if I can get an autograph."

"laugh."

Sister Ye knew perfectly well that her real intentions were not what they seemed...
