"go!"
A little different from what Mei Rou had expected, Jiang Yi answered quite simply and matter-of-factly.
"I definitely have to go. I'm not a fool. Didn't I say that before?"
"I'm not that impulsive, not to mention they don't owe me anything. I'm just patiently observing and waiting for opportunities when necessary."
"You are the smart one now!"
"By the way, do you know the style of the movie?"
Jiang Yi's tone was visibly pleasant and quite positive, which was a completely different state from before.
Mei Rou was obviously not used to Jiang Yi being so active in his work. She was silent for a moment before speaking.
"It seems to be a costume blockbuster. I took a rough look and will send you the brief introduction later. Please take a look."
When Mei Rou said the words "costume blockbuster", Jiang Yi already knew what kind of movie it was, and he responded lightly when he heard the words.
Then I received the document forwarded by Mei Rou.
Jiang Yi opened it and took a look. Not only did it have the background of the movie, but also the specific arrangement of the song.
He slid his fingers down and browsed the tracks produced by the production team, Chrysanthemum Stage.
"The audition has been arranged in a hurry. It will be tomorrow afternoon. Can you make it?" Mei Rou asked worriedly.
"Mainly because I looked at the arrangement before."
"Although I'm not an expert, I feel it's quite difficult."
Jiang Yi laughed when he heard this.
"You are quite prophetic, but the difficulty is very high."
After briefly mentioning it, he changed the subject.
"As expected of a great director, he is always in a hurry. Do you know that I will be recording a variety show in two days and are you deliberately stuck?" He joked in a relaxed tone. Although Mei Rou laughed, she still did not forget the previous topic.
"Hahahaha, it's really possible. These elderly directors are all smart people. They were probably sizing up the situation before." She said thoughtfully, and then she smiled with her eyes full.
"Now it looks like we can't hold on any longer, why don't we take action?"
"If it's difficult."
"How about it, do you want me to help you buy some more time so you can prepare properly?"
"After all, you will have to record a variety show later. You need to get a general idea first and then you can record songs for him directly after you come back from the variety show. There is no need to worry too much about this matter half-heartedly."
Mei Rou knew that Jiang Yi was on vacation during this period, and that his professional skills would not be used in future variety shows, so she was afraid that he would be too relaxed and make mistakes in the subsequent audition sessions.
"No need at all." He didn't care much: "It can be whatever time it is. You don't have to worry about me. I'm sure of it."
The other party said this, and they must have taken a liking to me.
Mei Rou said no more.
"Okay, I'll pick you up tomorrow afternoon."
Jiang Yi did not refuse. After hanging up the phone, he began to browse the music score carefully.
This Chrysanthemum Stage is quite difficult, but it is not an insurmountable gap for Jiang Yi. The key point is.
The grasp of the artistic conception of this song.
Jiang Yi studied the song repeatedly at home, and the next afternoon soon came.
On the way to the audition, Jiang Yi was still contemplating the artistic conception of the song in his heart, and the city full of golden armor described by the accumulation of words kept recurring in his mind.
Jiang Yi didn't stop thinking until the car parked in the underground parking lot of Star Picture Film and Television Company.
When I arrived at the recording studio on the eleventh floor according to the location given by the other party.
Jiang Yicai discovered that there were quite a lot of people here for this audition.
But after thinking about it, I was relieved. After all, it was a movie directed by Zhang Yimou.
Just having this name here has countless people flocking to him.
In short, Zhang Yimou is also a golden name in the director world.
After waiting for a while, it was finally time for Jiang Yi to go in for the audition.
A second before putting on the headset, he turned his head and glanced at the glass window at the door.
Then he was stunned.
The man standing with his mouth full of words is nearly seventy years old, but his eyes are clear and sharp, and the gaze he casts towards the recording studio is somewhat scrutinizing.
After just one glance, he sat down at the director's seat.
Jiang Yi knew who the other party was, and he didn't feel any emotion about him personally taking charge. He withdrew his eyes and thoughts at the same time. Focus entirely on the audition in front of you.
Even though it was an audition, it was straightforward and clear.
The intro is played directly from the beginning.
He was still a little stunned when he heard the prelude melody.
Isn’t this a clip of a cappella song?
But start all over again?
He was speechless in his heart.
No wonder I posted the sheet music of this song before.
This level of difficulty is not too high.
No wonder those who went out earlier were all crying.
You have to know that other crews, even in auditions, are at best casting a wide net when they can't find a suitable candidate.
Give the sound a try.
See if you like anything.
As a result, this crew was good.
Straight to the point.
I won’t do anything fancy, it just depends on how well you master the theme song!
But you must know that the rhythm of this song "Chrysanthemum Terrace" is not easy to master at all.
Whether it's rhythm, melody or artistic conception.
There is no easy one to figure out.
What's more, most people probably didn't expect Zhang Yimou to audition like this, and they probably weren't ready before.
You can imagine those individuals who came in with full confidence, but then were caught off guard and left.
But fortunately, even with Jiang Yi's current status and fame, his serious attitude towards music has never changed.
Almost as soon as I got the music score, I started studying it carefully, and I had a mental score of the entire song's rhythm.
Plus the prelude sounds.
The artistic conception that he could not bring into before, and the emotions that are always connected.
At the moment when the accompaniment sounds, all the melodies and notes are enveloped and combined together.
Coupled with the scattered memories of this song before.
At the second when the prelude was about to end, Jiang Yi sang the first line.
"Your tears are tender and hurt~"
"The pale moon crescent hooks the past~"
"The night~~ was too long and turned into frost~"
"Who is that cold despair in the attic~"
As soon as he opened his mouth, he spoke gracefully, and the emotions of sadness mixed with affection and loneliness were clearly visible.
With a sad tone, just listening to the first two sentences, you can feel the loneliness of autumn, and the classical atmosphere unique to China is almost overwhelming!
Zhang Yimou, who was also wearing a headset, widened his old eyes!
There is a mixture of surprise and disbelief in his eyes!
What follows is ecstasy!
Just listening to the first two lyrics, he felt stable!
This sense of control over the rhythm, atmosphere and artistic conception is superb! !
He really found the right person!
