For Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei, writing and performing the plot based on Zhou Jielun's music was like filming a drama version of the MV. They didn't have any objections, but felt a little fresh.

However, TV dramas have the filming style and rhythm of TV dramas. A certain plot is performed completely according to the music nodes. Then there is no way to edit it in the later stage. Once the editing is done, the music will be messed up. Therefore, Jielun must make concessions in the music and make slight changes to the music.

To fit the plot, the couple's performance can fit the music better.

Since Zhou Jielun agrees, the basic creative consensus has been reached.

Then, next, we can talk about the storytelling aspect of music.

Chu Xuan looked at Zhou Jielun and said: "You have also read the outline of the story. It is obviously an urban idol drama, and the focus is on the city."

Zhou Jielun nodded slightly and continued to listen to what Chu Xuan said.

"For the songs in your album, let me first talk about our initial creative inspiration." Chu Xuan said.

"Say." Zhou Jielun became interested.

Chu Xuan said: "The story takes characters as the core, and then the characters show the plot. Regarding the two songs "Uncle Jock" and "Mr. Magic" in your album, I have an idea for character design."

"What do you think?" Zhou Jielun raised the corner of his mouth.

These two songs are a bit special in his album. "Uncle Jock" was the inspiration he found from the character "Joker" after watching the movie "The Dark Knight".

"Uncle Jock" sounds cheerful and dynamic, but in fact it is a tragedy. It mainly reflects the loneliness, loneliness, self-deprecation and dissatisfaction with life in the spiritual world of "Joker".

"Mr. Magic" was inspired by "Uncle Jock" and can be regarded as the sequel to "Uncle Jock".

Completely opposite to the spiritual core of "Uncle Jock", "Mr. Magic" expresses true joy, relaxation, and a sunny outlook on life. I hope this is the core.

How do these two songs fit into urban idol dramas?

He didn't know, but he was curious about Chu Xuan's thoughts.

"In the rough outline of the story, the male protagonist hasn't been named yet. I think the male protagonist can be called Jiao Ke." Chu Xuan said.

In "Uncle Jock", the male protagonist is called Jock?... Zhou Jielun smiled: "Interesting."

Hearing what Chu Xuan said, his interest increased to a higher level.

"Jock is terminally ill and his time is short. Such people are lonely and lonely."

"At the same time, there is a little girl who is also suffering from a terminal illness and is scared of her physical condition. The point is that this little girl calls Jock Uncle Jock."

"Oh, here's the question." Zhou Jielun was very interested.

"In order to make the little girl happy, the male protagonist Jock pretends to be a clown to please her. Jock is happy when the little girl is happy. Three things are reflected here."

"One is the lonely and lonely heart of the male protagonist, who has to rely on pleasing the little girl to make him happy;"

"One is to add a sense of tragedy to the character. A cancer patient comforts another cancer patient, which is a tragedy in itself;"

"One is a positive and inspirational emotional expression presented by tragedy. Jock is suffering from cancer, but he is still willing to make the little girl happy. The spiritual value conveyed is very positive."

Zhou Jielun really didn't expect that Chu Xuan could present his song "Uncle Jock" with such a character design, and the scene described was very suitable for the loneliness and tragedy that the song wanted to express, and it also conveyed some of it.

Positive and beautiful spiritual values.

The more he listened, the more excited he became. He moved his body to a more comfortable sitting position and said, "Not bad, not bad, but how should we explain the word 'magician' in the song?"

There is a core lyric in "Uncle Jock": Magic, I hate you for taking away my business.

When he wrote this lyric, he took the "Joker" in "Batman" as his perspective and hated those who bullied the "Joker". These people he called "magicians".

Why "magician"? Because some people in society always have various ways to bully the people at the bottom like magic.

So in this song, the clown is the good guy and the magician is the villain.

Since Chu Xuan can design the male protagonist as a "clown" and it fits the artistic conception of the song, then Chu Xuan must have his own in-depth interpretation of the song and must also have a design for the "magician".

He was extremely curious about this.

"The little girl has a father who is a magician. In order to earn medical expenses for his daughter, the father often performs outside."

"Once when he came home, he saw Jock dressing up as a clown to make his daughter happy. This made him very dissatisfied. He thought Jock had robbed his baby, so he performed magic tricks to please his daughter and completely divert her daughter's attention."

"This was a deep blow to Jock, because the little girl was the only light in Jock's short life, but the little girl's father took this light away from him."

"Jock resented his father for this and hated his father's career as a magician."

Zhou Jielun stroked his palm and praised Chu Xuan: "Your creative ability is so strong, full of sense of picture and character."

Chen Zhenrong and the two businessmen nodded repeatedly. In just two days, they were able to interpret a song in such an in-depth and dramatic way. It not only fit the superficial meaning of the song's lyrics, but also perfectly fit the spirit of the song.

Core, this creative ability is not simple.

"It's not over yet." Chu Xuan said.

Not over yet?... Zhou Jielun raised his eyebrows, showing even higher interest.

"There is a philosophical saying with very practical significance, which is that people tend to live their lives as the person they hate the most." Chu Xuan said.

Zhou Jielun and Chen Zhenrong were slightly startled, not knowing the deep meaning of Chu Xuan's words.

Just listen to Chu Xuan say: "So, the male protagonist Jiao has a career in what he thinks is the virtual world..."

Zhou Jielun's heart suddenly palpitated, and he understood the profound meaning of Chu Xuan, and he and Chu Xuan said in unison: "Magician."

Chu Xuan smiled and nodded: "Take advantage of the situation to introduce the identity and artistic conception represented by the song "Mr. Magic"."

Zhou Jielun spread his hands in excitement and looked at Chen Zhenrong: "It exploded, it really exploded."

Chen Zhenrong didn't understand Zhou Jielun's excitement. Maybe it was because his artistic skills were not in place and he couldn't hear what was "exploding".

Wang Jinhua and Liu Xiaoli also turned their heads at the desk, attracted by their current creative discussions.

Liu Yi took a sip of water and explained: "From the perspective of the male protagonist Jiao Ke, he is terminally ill and waiting to die. The meaning of life is to make the little girl happy only then he is satisfied. The characteristic here is that the male protagonist is...

Before reaching the end of your life, get used to pleasing others and get happiness from it.”

"The little girl's father is a magician, and magic performances are more pleasing to people than him playing a clown. Although he hates magicians because of this, under the unscrupulous inner guidance of the 'virtual world', he chose his job that made him

The most hated profession.”

"Why choose a magician?"

"First, the magician makes people happier when they are recognized by the male protagonist."

"Second, the purpose of the male protagonist entering the 'virtual world' in his limited life is to find happiness."

"Third, the male protagonist's lonely heart makes him use pleasing others as a way to gain happiness."

Wang Jinhua understood and said: "The male protagonist Jock is like a comedian, like a comedy actor. He looks happy on stage, but in private he is lonely, lonely and depressed."

"Yes, that's the character." Chu Xuan nodded.

Liu Yi continued: "From the perspective of these two songs, the male protagonist is "Uncle Jock" in his world, a tragic figure and a clown like a lonely patient, while in the 'virtual world' he is "Magic"

"Mr." is such a character who is unscrupulous, unscrupulous, and strives to convey happiness in an attempt to make himself happy."

"Such a two-sided character conforms to the distinction between reality and fiction, fits the completely opposite artistic conception of the two songs, and can make the audience pity, sympathize, and resonate, and can make the character very full."

"It has also achieved a philosophical thought that Chu Xuan just said: living like the person you hate the most seems to be a compromise with society, and it is also a way to obtain happiness."

Zhou Jielun couldn't sit still anymore and couldn't help but stand up.

After he stood up, he saw that everyone else was still sitting, and he sat down again with emotion: "Many people say that I am a genius, but I think you are the geniuses. Your creative ability is so strong!"

Zhou Jielun said again that "the creative ability is too strong", but in fact he did not have more words to express his inner excitement and praise for Chu Xuan and Liu Yi.

He never thought that two songs composed casually, which in his mind were far incomparable to "Daoxiang" and "Lanting Preface", would have such profound connotations in just two days.

Spiritual core, closely connected philosophical expression.

Just hearing what they said made him very fond of the male protagonist Jock, and he also firmly believed that the audience and fans would like such a character very much.

Such a character is simply full of strong personal charm of realistic magic in a tragic tone.

Such a character is also brand new and innovative. At least to his knowledge, there has never been such a character in urban dramas in the entire Asian market.

"This is art." Zhou Jielun highly praised it and expressed his inner excitement to Chen Zhenrong without any concealment.

Since he started the national style trend, he likes such things with artistic conception and profound expression. But such things are concentrated in one character, and one character can highlight the pros and cons of the different moods of his two songs. This

How can you make him not love you?

"To be precise, this should be the art of combining music with character plots. Without your songs, we would not have been able to come up with such a character design and such an artistic expression with such a spiritual core." Chu Xuan said.

"You are so amazing." Chen Zhenrong exclaimed: "It's hard to imagine that this is what can be achieved with two pieces of music in two days. Just the design of the male protagonist alone, I dare say, beats Baodao and the South Korean idol drama One Hundred Streets

, their character design has no connotation at all, it’s all bloody.”

Everyone smiled. For Yu Chuxuan and Liu Yifei, these words came from the mouth of Chen Zhenrong, a senior agent from Baodao, which gave them a sense of honor.

Wang Jinhua, Liu Xiaoli, and Lin Xiaoya are equally pleased. Don't convince people with capital, don't convince people with resources, but convince people with professionalism, artistry, and creativity. Isn't this the core orientation that cultural enterprises should have?

This is the true heritage of the company and its cultural heritage.

"The male protagonist is a magician and the female protagonist is a star, so how do they get together?" Liu Xiaoli asked. She didn't want to interfere with their communication, but listening to their discussion made her very interested.

Liu Yifei turned to look at her mother and said with a smile: "One day, the heroine was depressed because her career was suppressed. She was casually walking on the street and saw the hero's street magic performance. The hero was a novice magician and accidentally exposed his flaw.

The onlookers were dismissive, but the heroine was the only one who was amused."

"For the male protagonist, in reality he takes pleasure in pleasing the little girl. The innocent smile of the little girl satisfies the spiritual needs of the male protagonist."

"So, the disdain of the onlookers, coupled with the heroine's smile, made the hero see the light. This was also the beginning of the fate between the hero and heroine."
