Follow the sound and follow the way

The exchange between the two regrettably ended without a problem after Mu Kang's almost self-abuse monologue. Lin Yan listened silently, and Mu Kang went back to his room and fell asleep as soon as he finished speaking.

The scumbag soul still lived up to everyone's expectations, and when Johannes came to pick up Mu Kang at five o'clock the next morning, the scumbag Mu didn't remember any shocking words he had said.

He stood in the twilight morning light and said goodbye to Lin Yan, his face was calm as usual, he first left Lin Yan his email address, and told Lin Yan to send it immediately after editing "The Elf in the Forest", and repeatedly emphasized that there was something wrong Be sure to send emails to contact me at any time, and then walk away step by step.

He watched Lin Yan's figure slowly shrinking in the rearview mirror, and an emotion called "reluctance" finally arose in his hard-hearted heart, and he thought irritably: When will I see Ayan again?I really miss him.But A Yan is so busy, I can't bother him without saying hello.

When I go back, I still have to write about tunnel warfare, fuck.

Lin Yan stood slumped on the spot alone, lowered his head and said helplessly to himself: "You haven't changed at all. You are obviously the best in "Elf in the Forest"."

The few days in P country are like acting in a movie. Mu Kang is full of diving, Ah Yan, composing, kidnappers and children. Come on, basically in a state of disconnection.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, the plane finally landed.Mu Kang was waiting for his luggage boredly with his coat in his hands, when Manager Wang's call came, and he immediately said, "Where have you been?"

Mu Kang: "Go to country P."

Wang Junfeng: "Go diving? Why didn't you tell me?"

Mukang: "It's a temporary decision."

Wang Junfeng sighed, and said helplessly, "Let me know in advance next time, I thought you disappeared in Jakarta."

Mu Kang let out a casual "hmm", quite disdainful in his heart: Tell you that I will be kidnapped?Then I met Lin Yan and did some charity by the way?Do you know who Lin Yan is?

This encounter is very precious to Mu Kang, he wants to cherish it carefully and is unwilling to share it with others.

Wang Junfeng: "Since I went diving, I'll treat you as having finished your vacation. Can "Long March Suite" be handed in the day after tomorrow?"

The situation suddenly changed from "Elf in the Forest" to "Long March Suite". Mu Kang said angrily, "Yes."

Wang Junfeng's heart is like a rock, and he doesn't care what Mu Kang's attitude is, as long as he can: "That's good, the tunnel battle will be as soon as possible, Fanxing's finals will be the day after tomorrow."

Mu Kang said impatiently, "Understood."

Wang Junfeng heard that Mu Kang was in a bad mood, and immediately asked thoughtfully, "Shall I arrange a car for you?"

Mu Kang said bluntly: "It's troublesome."

The outdoor temperature was still very low, and Mukang, who had just returned from the tropics, was so cold that he sneezed as soon as he went out.The cold wind slashed across the pedestrian's exposed skin ruthlessly like a bayonet. As Mu Kang pushed the luggage, he suddenly remembered Lin Yan's white face that turned red when he was cold.

I don't know when I will see you again.

He hid behind a pillar and lit a cigarette tremblingly. There were still more than half of the cigarettes in the cigarette case. Mu Kang counted and found that he had only smoked less than ten cigarettes since he was kidnapped.

Also fucking eat fruit every day or eat fruit mixed with rice, it can be said to be very healthy.

Mu Kang waited comfortably with a cigarette in his mouth, and flipped through his circle of friends. The few friends who dived together didn't post any photos, so they should have stayed on that deserted island.Mukang thought of the Johannes family who couldn't explain anything, and clicked on one of the dialog boxes:

- Be careful when you come back, there is a robbery there.

After waiting for a long time without seeing a reply, Mu Kang suddenly remembered that there was no signal there, and he couldn't see it even when he sent it on WeChat.

He squinted his eyes and thought for a while, thinking that there shouldn't be any problem with the three men driving in one car.Besides, Johannes and his father, who looked like the leader of a criminal group at first sight... It might take some time to calm down the wounded heart that was frightened by Lin Yan, and they won't start working so soon.

Tsk tsk, these lucky ones are really in the light of A Yan.

The car slowly stopped in front of Mu Kang, and the driver got out of the car and politely helped the guests put away their luggage.Mu Kang glanced back at the busy airport for the last time, and realized with distaste that he was going back to his swill-like work again.

The night when I wrote "Elves in the Forest" together with Lin Yan with the summer night wind, dim lights, and the sound of insects, obviously only two days have passed, but it seems like a lifetime ago.

Mu Kang spent the whole day finishing the "Long March Suite", and finally handed over the whole piece to the client due to the deadline that could not be postponed any longer.He didn't want to see this pile of shit again, and wished he could deal with the documents right away.

Mr. Mu has excellent productions and a wide range of works, but there are only a handful of music that can be found in the music library of the studio. Except for the things he is writing, Mu Kang has long been used to deleting the original files as soon as he receives money.Manager Wang complained about this at the beginning, while Mu Kang said that shit can be done, but it can't be done without letting people clean it up.

However, "Spirit of the Woods" is obviously not included in this list.

Mu Kang cautiously re-wrote the score by hand, and solemnly packed the score in a file folder, took it home and put it in the cabinet by the bed, setting aside a special space for it, lest the smell of shit would spoil the score. infect.

After doing this series of crazy actions, Mu Kang began to wait for Lin Yan's email with hope for the stars and the moon, and wrote "Tunnel Warfare" with a sad face.

Who the hell knows what tunnel warfare is, and I have never fought it.Besides, whether it is as magical as in the legends, and can beat the strong and strong enemies to the point of crying, I really doubt it.

Creations that are divorced from reality and sympathetic to reality, and only rely on false slogans and self-fantasy will always be nothing but shit.

Compared with "Elf in the Forest", the progress of "Tunnel Warfare" can only be described as a slow speed.Master Mu's habit of procrastinating is serious and intractable, and he wrote only ten sections in an afternoon.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Mu Kang was planning to order takeaway to deal with it casually, when his cell phone rang suddenly.

Not many people knew his mobile phone number, and even fewer people would call at this point. He thought it was Wang Junfeng, but when he picked it up, he was stunned.

The words "Zhang Yusheng" were clearly displayed on the screen.

Boss Zhang retired from the J hospital two years ago, and went to the sea to run Yusheng Piano Company's big business of fooling. Mu Kang didn't know how he was fooling, and he didn't care.

After all, he is a teacher, so he has to give face, Mu Kang hesitated for two seconds, then answered the phone: "Teacher Zhang?"

Zhang Yu said angrily, "Mu Kang."

Mu Kang: "It's me, hello."

Zhang Yusheng: "Hello, hello, how are you doing?"

Mu Kang: "It's okay, how about you?"

The two went back and forth with a bunch of meaningless social pleasantries that had to go.Mu Kang responded casually, and unconsciously refreshed the mailbox frequently, and found two emails that probably wanted to invite songs, and forwarded them to Wang Junfeng casually.

The boss on the other end of the phone went around for a long time, and finally got to the point: "Mukang, I want to ask you for a favor."

Mu Kang: "Teacher Zhang, please tell me."

"I can't make it clear on the phone, let's meet up later." Boss Zhang paused, and then said, "I'll just ask you to help this time."

As soon as this was said, Mu Kang couldn't refuse anymore, so he had to say: "Okay, Teacher Zhang, where will I meet you?"

Zhang Yusheng: "I'll send you the address, please arrive at 06:30."

The place Zhang Yusheng chose was a high-end restaurant with only private rooms and no lobby. Each private room has its own toilet and food delivery port, with three waiters.As soon as Mu Kang went in, he found that Boss Zhang was alone inside, and realized that this would be a game where there would be more annoying waiters than customers.

Mu Dacai is very difficult to serve. A game with many people thinks it is noisy, and a game with few people thinks there are too many waiters.

As soon as Zhang Yusheng saw Mu Kang, he stood up, greeted him with a smile on his face, and handed Mu Kang a glass of wine directly.The liquid in the glass is yellowish, with a strong aroma. There is a vivid wine bottle on the table, which should be a certain priceless version of Moutai.

Mu Kang took it and swallowed it, and said, "Long time no see, Mr. Zhang, please sit down."

Zhang Yusheng patted Mu Kang on the shoulder, like a big leader, and kindly pulled Mu Kang to sit down: "I seem to have lost weight, Mu Kang."

Mu Kang: "Hehe."

"The dishes here are delicious, especially the puffer fish and Buddha jumping over the wall." Zhang Yusheng greeted the waiter to serve the food, and said enthusiastically, "You must try it."

If there is nothing to be courteous, there must be a demon. Mu Kang waited calmly for Boss Zhang to speak, and without changing his face, he first drank a bowl of Buddha jumping over the wall, and then drank a bowl of puffer fish soup. Seems wrong.

After eating Fotiaoqiang, drinking fugu soup, and drinking Maotai wine, Boss Zhang was finally satisfied with Mu Kang, and said with a smile: "Actually, it's not a big deal, Mu Kang, I want to ask you to authorize a song. "

Holding the wine glass, Mu Kang asked, "What song?"

"It's the song you wrote when you graduated from graduate school..." Zhang Yusheng stammered, but couldn't remember the name, "...the song."

Mu Kang pretended not to understand: "I wrote a lot, which song are you referring to?"

Boss Zhang: "..."

Mu Kang didn't speak, and waited for Boss Zhang to recall, squinting his eyes and taking a sip of wine. After sipping for a long time, he still couldn't taste the essential difference between the limited edition Moutai and the regular one.

Boss Zhang frowned and said slowly: "It's the one that was performed later, there is a piece of piano... It seems that someone else played it?"

Mu Kang swallowed the wine hard, thinking: Looking for someone else?Who else?Lin Yan, don't you fucking remember?

Fortunately, Boss Zhang was quite up to date, and finally pulled him out of his rusty mind: "Yes! Lin Yan played the piano. Lin Yan played the piece you wrote that time, pointing and playing, Tsk tsk, Mu Kang, you really have face!"

Mu Kangpi smiled and said: "Ah, that one, "Treachery of Confused Souls", isn't it?"

Boss Zhang secretly slandered who could remember this stupid name, but hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, this is the song!"

"That's a symphonic poem." Mu Kang glanced at Boss Zhang, "Mr. Zhang, haven't you retired yet?"

"I don't want to retire from school either. When I'm old, I have to follow the policy." Zhang Yusheng sighed and said to Mu Kang emotionally, "But my heart is still in music, and I don't plan to really retire."

What Mu Kang said was unexpected, he was not sure what Zhang Yusheng meant, and asked tentatively, "Do you have any plans?"

"My training department has recruited students in more than a dozen primary schools, and plans to form several amateur student orchestras to train the next generation." Zhang Yusheng explained, "Now the preparations are almost done, and we are collecting music and looking for scores."

Mu Kang nodded, raised his wine glass and said to Zhang Yusheng, "Mr. Zhang, I would like to toast you."

Seeing that Mu Kang raised his head and drank the wine, Zhang Yusheng waved his hands again and again and said, "No way, no way. Don't I just think of you, great talent Mu? Everyone was very impressed with this sleepy, sleepy... song back then."

Mu Kang waved the waiter away, refilled himself with wine, stroked the wine glass with his fingers, and said in thought, "This piece requires a lot of skill from the actors, and there is also a piece of concerto-level piano, which is not suitable for a student orchestra."

"I know, that's why I wanted to ask you in person." Zhang Yusheng obviously had thought about it in advance, and said quickly, "You give me the authorization to adapt and perform, and I'll find a composer who has been working with me to change it, how about it?"

Mu Kang didn't speak.

It’s not that it’s impossible, but it’s very, very good.

His previous works are almost rotted into paper money at home. It's not that Mu Kang is unwilling to give it, but that no one asks him for it.

Except for the "Schoenberg Saigao" and Guan Xiaoxiao who occasionally asked Mu Kang for some small chamber music works, no one cared how fascinating and shocking Mu Kang's works were.They feel that the "Long March Suite" is already very good. Why does the harmony change so much? A few templates are enough. Anyway, it is the soundtrack of a TV series, and it is just to set off the fake tears of the fictional protagonist. Even the emotions are fake, and the music is It doesn't matter what it is.

It's not about going to the Oscars and Grammys.

Since Mu Kang has long been unwilling to use the three major themes exclusive to Mu Dacai, he naturally thought that one day, he would eventually burn those talented works of the past, so that he would be completely out of sight and completely reconcile with the beautiful past. say goodbye.

Unexpectedly, the first person to stand up and say "no" to him was neither Guan Xiaoxiao nor Li Chongyuan, but... Zhang Yusheng.

Mu Kang glanced at Zhang Yusheng's anxious and longing expression, smiled at himself lightly into the wine glass, and said in a low voice for a long time, "Mr. Zhang said so, of course I agree."
