Zhao Yixin's scalp was numb. This was the first time he understood the history of a shipwreck in detail, and he was completely attracted by the appearance of Wang Mo, the steel ship.
In large ships, in addition to the captain, who is the absolute top officer, there are also positions such as first mate, first mate, second mate, and third mate.
The chief mate refers to the ship driver whose position is just below the captain.
He is also the head of the deck department, that is, the driving department, and the captain's main assistant.
In addition to the first mate, there are also first mates, second mates, third mates, etc., who are also among the pilots of the ship. According to the ranking of the position titles, you can see the position weight of these pilots.
Zhao Yixin was very excited at the moment, not only because of this story, but also because of the character Wang Mo.
Zhao Yixin originally thought that given his status and strength, he could only get a marginal supporting role, or even a walk-on role, but he did not expect that the role of Wang Mo would occupy such an important position in the movie.
It even seems to have a higher appearance rate than the captain and first mate.
The reason is that he was the officer on duty when the Steel hit the iceberg, and it was he who issued the evacuation instructions. Therefore, Wang Mo plays a large role in all documentaries and stories about the Steel.
As Zhao Yixin's research became more and more in-depth, the description of Wang Mo's related stories made Zhao Yixin more and more excited.
There are many character plots in it that can be fully developed, such as accepting bribes from nobles, shooting to death troublesome passengers, and finally shooting himself because of inner condemnation.
Compared with the main characters, Wang Mo, a seemingly inconspicuous supporting role, can actually test the actor's acting skills.
In a movie with such a huge investment, if this role is played well, the actor will definitely skyrocket.
Therefore, Zhao Yixin was so excited that he looked at Han Sen with eyes full of gratitude. He even wanted to kowtow to Han Sen three times on the spot to express his gratitude.
Han Sen just smiled and patted his shoulder to appease his excited heart. In the end, he didn't forget to give director Xu Weizhou's contact information to Zhao Yixin.
After the wrapping party, the pressure on Han Sen was much relieved. A professional team will do the editing and post-production special effects. The final film will be reviewed by Han Sen personally before it is finally released.
The next thing Han Sen has to do is prepare for the filming of "Steel Horn" and the preparation of the new album, which is strongly requested by fans.
After nearly a year of preparation, the ship model, which cost 100 million yuan, has been completely built. In addition, under the leadership and call of director Xu Weizhou, all the main actors have been recruited.
It is worth mentioning that Xu Weizhou recruited 8,000 extra actors who were paid daily. These people will wear costumes from a hundred years ago and gather at the port. Xu Weizhou will film a huge and one-stop movie here.
The scene behind the mirror.
The official filming of "Steel" may have to wait until after the year, because all kinds of costumes, security, and logistics require a lot of energy to produce. The most important thing is that when the production starts at this time, the actors and staff of the crew can only
It's a bit unrealistic to stay on the set for the New Year, so delaying time, making more careful preparations, and starting work after the new year is the best option.
During this period, Xu Weizhou also constantly urged the male and female protagonists Han Sen and Tang Wu to pair more lines and scripts, and go into all the details, so that they would not miss the words or forget the words during the filming, and it would be best if they could be integrated into one.
feeling.
This is of course very unrealistic, because Han Sen and Tang Wu are both one of the most dazzling stars in the current Chinese music and film circles. Both parties have very busy schedules. Not to mention Tang Wu, Han Sen alone, the next two or three
He has enough work to do every month.
It is now mid-October, and Han Sen has already received invitations from the organizers of the Golden Deer Awards and the Spring Festival Gala in advance. Although Han Sen has not released an album this year, the new songs released one after another during the world tour have successfully attracted attention.
In addition, because of Han Sen’s wonderful performance in the Spring Festival Gala last year, the Spring Festival Gala program team once again extended an invitation to Han Sen.
Coincidentally, the director of this year's Spring Festival Gala program is still Ao Yan.
Because the ratings and audience feedback of last year's Spring Festival Gala were both good, Ao Yan once again won the election as director of the Spring Festival Gala this year. Ao Yan called Han Sen the day after she won the election as director of the Spring Festival Gala and suggested that Han Sen continue to work this year.
Participate in the Spring Festival Gala performance.
Han Sen did not refuse. In fact, he had no reason to refuse. The Spring Festival Gala is the biggest stage for any artist, bar none.
In addition to these tasks, Hansen himself also has some endorsement work and charity activities to do. Of course, the most important thing is the release of the new album.
This is Hansen's third new album.
However, fans across the country and even the world have heard Han Sen's works far more than three albums. It has only been less than two years since Han Sen's debut, but fans feel that Han Sen has accompanied him
took away their entire youth.
Because Han Sen's works are so popular, any song can trigger a chorus. It can be said that everyone knows it, so people's memories of the past two years are almost filled with Han Sen's works.
song.
Being bombarded and surrounded by Han Sen's songs every day, the sense of time will be stretched infinitely.
As for what kind of songs to release in the third album, Han Sen already has some vague ideas.
The first is Chinese style songs.
Because Chinese-style songs are the most popular song category at the moment, Han Sen always adds some Chinese-style songs to his new album, which were once very popular, such as "Blue and White Porcelain", "Orchid Pavilion Preface", "Rolling Bead Curtain", etc.
The two top-notch Chinese-style songs "Fireworks Easily Cold" and "Thousands of Miles Away" released this year are still top-notch works in the eyes of many Chinese-style fans, and they are often listened to over and over again.
So many people are looking forward to having a few Chinese-style songs in Han Sen's official album.
When it comes to Chinese-style songs, Han Sen inevitably thinks of Jay Chou.
In previous lives, Chinese-style songs have always been a major category, but it was only starting from Jay Chou that this category attracted the world's attention. Classic Chinese-style songs also stood out from Jay Chou's albums and became classics.
Among Jay Chou's many Chinese-style songs, there are also some special ones. Although their popularity is not high, they are well-known among Jay Chou's fan groups.
For example, "Nunchaku", "Dragon Fist", "Zhou Daxia" or even "Double Swords", "Lady", etc.
However, these songs are all works that have caused great controversy in society, because they are different from traditional Chinese style songs, such as "Blue and White Porcelain", "Lanting Preface", "East Wind Break", etc., and are consistently classical and elegant, making such songs
Chinese style songs are popular all over the world, and most singers
When composing Chinese-style songs, they all followed the same pattern, imitating the style of songs such as "Blue and White Porcelain", which made this style continue to flourish, and eventually formed a fixed impression in people's minds, thinking that only such songs
Only then can it be called Chinese style.
And when Chinese-style songs like "Nunchaku" and "Dragon Fist" come out, they are bound to cause great controversy among the audience just like the original "Stop the War" and "In the Name of the Father".
Therefore, although Han Sen had the idea of writing these songs, he was still a little hesitant in the end.
But whether it's "Nunchaku", "Dragon Fist" or "Chow Hero", "Double Sword", etc., they are essentially promoting Chinese Kung Fu, and Han Sen has just filmed a movie called "Kung Fu".
If the new album succeeds in becoming famous, it will also attract traffic to the movie "Kung Fu".
In this way, the box office performance of "Kung Fu" will also be guaranteed.
Even after much thought, Han Sen couldn't think of a reason not to write these songs in the new album, so he just did it. After the wrapping party of the movie "Kung Fu", Han Sen returned to the mainland with the team and started writing these songs at home.
.
Hansen Studio has a dedicated recording studio, which is often used by singers in the studio.
And when Han Sen finished writing the song and started trying out the effects in the recording studio, he immediately attracted the attention of Zhang Hai, Li Yaoqin, Wu Sheng and others, and even singer Deng Zehai, who had collaborated with "Thousands of Miles Away".
After hearing the news, I came to the studio to try it out.
"Chinese style songs?"
"I just took a look at the lyrics, and the Chinese style is indeed full of flavor between the lines. Brother Sen's new album is going to be popular again!"
"Well, I came here early and heard some chords. I haven't mentioned anything else, but this arrangement seems a bit noisy and completely different from my "Along the River Garden at Qingming Festival"..."
When Wu Sheng said this, he caught the attention of rock veteran Zhang Hai.
His eyes lit up slightly: "The arrangement is a bit noisy? Rock? Chinese style plus rock? Hey, what kind of combination is this? It sounds a bit fantasy!"
Wu Sheng reacted: "It seems to be rock and roll, with an electric guitar interrupting the intro!"
Zhang Hai became excited all of a sudden. Although he sang "Fly Higher" and "In Spring" very hotly, what really excited him was the manic rock and roll, and his favorite was strumming the guitar like crazy.
At this time, Han Sen had already walked to the microphone. When he had just finished arranging the song, he noticed that the staff looked at him wrong.
Because the arrangement is indeed a bit too restless, and there are long lyrics, this is still a big test for Han Sen.
Although the entire song has been written completely, it is quite difficult to write it and memorize the long and awkward lyrics and sing them out. Even if the original singer is here, it is difficult to make no mistakes.
It is quite difficult for everyone to sing this song, so that similar songs have no chance to appear on the concert stage.
Because even with a teleprompter in front of me, my mouth can't keep up with the speed of my eyes.
This song is "Nunchaku".
In order to sing this song and get a feel for it, Han Sen even wore a black vest and purchased a pair of nunchuck props for the staff to popularize. This thing is called nunchaku!
Seeing the confused expressions on many people's faces, Han Sen sighed in his heart, there is still a long way to go to popularize Chinese martial arts!
At this moment, Han Sen had already instructed the sound engineer to play the arrangement of "Nunchaku".
First there was the frantic electric guitar sound, followed by a long and rhythmic drum sound.
When Han Sen sang the first line of "Nunchaku", Zhang Hai, Wu Sheng and others who were watching in the recording studio had question marks on their faces.
“The smell of smoke fills the rockyaki shop, and next door is the martial arts museum
Mama Sang in the shop has three stages of tea ceremony..."
Li Yaoqin was completely dumbfounded. She found that she couldn't understand what Han Sen was singing. Every word was clearly a Chinese character, but she just couldn't understand it at all.
Turning around to look at Deng Zehai and others, they all looked dumbfounded.
Even Zhang Hai, a self-proclaimed rock veteran, had his mouth wide open at this moment.
In fact, it’s not just these singers.
Just after Han Sen started singing this part, he realized that the rhythm was wrong. He ran away without paying attention. The lyrics he sang became slower and slower. Finally, he raised his hand to signal the sound engineer to pause.
"Let me stroke..."
Han Sen held the lyrics sheet in his hand and pinched his temples with a headache. With these lyrics, the original singer had to kneel down even after he was reborn.
But fortunately, Han Sen quickly became familiar with the rhythm. Regardless of the strange looks from others, he signaled for the accompaniment to be played and immediately started rapping and singing these lyrics:
“The smell of smoke fills the rockyaki shop, and next door is the martial arts museum
Mama Sang in the store has three stages of tea ceremony
The boss who teaches boxing and kicking martial arts, practices iron sand palm, and uses Yang's gun
He is best at hard-based kung fu, and he can also wear the golden bell cover and the iron cloth shirt..."
Han Sen sang more and more smoothly, and gradually entered the state. The lyrics completely kept up with the rhythm, and the rhythm began to sound clearer:
"What changes should I make? What changes should I make?
Breathe and feel at ease
Make some changes, make some changes
Qi sinks, Dantian opens, palms open
Make some changes, make some changes
Traveling Thousands of Miles a Day Tying Sandbags
It’s no wonder that you fly over the eaves and walk over the wall
Come as soon as you go——"
Crazy!
Brother Sen is crazy!
Li Yaoqin pinched the corners of her eyes and hesitated to speak. The expressions of the others were also very similar.
And the meaning of "zuo megai" is actually very simple, it means "what to do" in Hakka dialect.
Although the whole song starts to become interesting from here on, it is still completely different from the Chinese-style songs imagined by Li Yaoqin and others.
This song even feels a bit weird.
Fortunately, when the chorus of "Nunchaku" came, the lyrics with clear rhythm were repeated and brainwashed, which instantly changed the perception of Wu Sheng and others.
"Use the nunchucks quickly, hehehehaxi
Use the nunchucks quickly, hehehehaxi
Those who practice martial arts must remember that the benevolent are invincible
Who is practicing Tai Chi, and things are booming..."
When Han Sen finished singing the entire set of choruses, Wu Sheng and others realized how different the song's rhythm, lyrics and arrangement were. Not to mention shocking, it was definitely a very innovative work!
"This song...the melody is so strong!"
“The arrangement is so fantastic!”
"This style of music, I call it a combination of hard and soft rock, coupled with super-fast rap, is really good!"
"This is the first time I've seen a martial arts style song! It's indeed Han Sen!"
Although they are not very fond of the song "Nunchaku", everyone, including Deng Zehai, is flattering with words and admiration on their faces at this moment.
