Chen Yan originally wanted to see what Song Yu's screenwriting abilities were.
But when his own character, the Jiu Sword Fairy, appeared, his attention was attracted.
This character is really too interesting.
And full of charm.
"Come with a sword and ride on the wind to slay demons in the world!"
When Chen Yan saw this line, he couldn't help it and wanted to start filming immediately.
This can definitely become a famous scene in the industry.
As an actor, he might become an instant star.
"Honest, really kind." Chen Yan thought to himself, "I came here to join Song Yu. I really chose the right person."
The script reading session lasted three days.
The actors present basically understood what kind of story "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" is.
At the same time, I also admire Song Yu very much.
After so many years of fairy tale dramas, the plots and characters have varied.
But "Legend of Sword and Fairy" still looks very unique.
Neither the protagonist nor the villain is that facial-looking.
The biggest boss, the leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult, is actually a researcher who believes in science and even knows that the earth is round.
On the contrary, the protagonist Li Xiaoyao did not believe it, which ultimately led to tragedy. He wanted to save Zhao Ling'er, but after going around in a circle, he returned to the starting point.
All in all, it's a rather novel feeling.
Song Yu only participated in the first day of reading.
After all, he is already familiar with the script and lines.
On the third day, he released the second trailer of "The Legend of the Heroes of the Sacrifice", and the background music was the ending song "A Laugh from the Sea".
In response, the crew of Summit Entertainment and Longteng Entertainment's "The King of Martial Arts" also released the ending song, titled "Return to Hermitage."
According to the original work, after the protagonist became the king of martial arts, he only worked for three or four years before leaving the martial arts world with his heroine.
The ending has also been sublimated to a certain extent, such as not being greedy for power and so on.
Song Yu listened to this song based on the idea of knowing yourself and the enemy and being able to survive a hundred battles.
Compared with the passion of the theme song "King of Martial Arts", "Return to Hermitage" seems very pleasant and relaxed.
Although the style is different, the quality is similar.
Speaking of which, it is actually quite rare for a TV series to have two songs like this.
On the other side, Xu Mo and Wang Jing wanted to get together and listen to the ending song just like last time.
But they didn't want to repeat the embarrassing scene again, so the two of them listened to it first.
Then there was no more. Then, the meeting was completely canceled and no one talked about it.
"It's hard for me to imagine that if "Loyalty to the Country" is the theme song, then what song should be the ending song to match it?"
As Zhou Ting said this, he asked Zhou Jieyu to purchase "A Laugh in the Sea" on the Penguin Music platform.
So far, he has won the first song and the album is halfway through, so it is impossible to recover.
But his character doesn't care about this either.
If you lose, you lose.
Zhou Ting's current mentality is to see how many more surprises this young man can give him.
To be honest, "Serving the Country with Loyalty" really surprised him.
Songs with this special theme are actually quite difficult to write.
With high quality and good sales, they are really rare.
Zhou Ting knows many good patriotic songs, but their sales are quite poor.
"Serving the Country with Loyalty" is different.
The sales volume is astonishing.
The reason is that this song was closer to modern pop music when it was first created.
But without losing the classicness.
"Dad, I'm starting to sing." Zhou Jieyu reminded.
The prelude sounded, and the clearly visible sound of the guzheng appeared.
Zhou Ting nodded secretly, it sounded pretty good, but it always felt a little strange.
"The sea is smiling, the tide is rolling across the strait, and the ups and downs are recorded with the waves."
"The sky laughs, there are tides in the world, God knows who will lose and who will win."
atmosphere.
This was Zhou Ting's first feeling.
But it is different from the majestic atmosphere of "Loyalty to the Country".
This song shows the heroic spirit of the world.
"The mountains and rivers are smiling, the misty rain is far away, and the waves are sweeping away the mortal world. How much do you know in this world?"
"The breeze smiles, but it makes people feel lonely, and there is still a lingering evening glow of pride."
"The common people laugh, no longer lonely, the pride is still smiling foolishly."
This song is very short, with only six lines of lyrics, and ends with a random 'La——' at the end.
But that chivalrous spirit has reached its peak.
Everyone who listens to the song can easily imagine the momentum of a few heroes singing wantonly.
Desirable.
“Really good.”
Zhou Ting commented with a smile that both the music and lyrics were perfect.
There is no problem if it is used as the ending theme of a martial arts drama.
Coupled with the theme song, Zhou Ting also became curious about "The Legend of the Withered Heroes" at this time.
What kind of content is worthy of these two songs?
"Wait a minute, play it again." Zhou Ting suddenly said.
Although Zhou Jieyu was confused, she didn't ask and clicked play again.
The song ends.
"How dare he act so randomly?"
Zhou Ting showed a shocked expression, "The tune of this song is 'Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zheng, Yu' backwards."
To be honest, he wouldn't be surprised if "A Laugh from the Sea" used a normal pentatonic scale.
Because Song Yu has already released similar songs.
This is what he calls Chinese style.
But looking backwards, that's another story.
The difficulty immediately rises.
If you reverse many things, it will make no sense.
But "A Smile in the Sea" is so good that it leaves people speechless.
"This person is really playing music."
Zhou Ting was a little frightened.
In his opinion, Song Yu's innovative ability is too strong.
With music in his hands, he has become a master of music and is constantly expanding his field.
But every step was so successful.
Becoming king is already foreseeable.
Zhou Ting shared it on the audience and added: "Within three years, Song Yu will become the true godfather of the Chinese language."
This sentence is really too amazing.
In less than ten minutes, it became the top trending search topic.
If you change someone else, you will undoubtedly attract hatred.
But if it is Song Yu, at least for now no one will jump out and say anything.
After being bombarded by six songs including "Invisible Wings", "Blue and White Porcelain", "Qili Xiang", "In the Name of the Father", "Serving the Country with Loyalty" and "A Laugh in the Sea", who dares to say what his future will be like?
After Song Yu found out, he also called Zhou Ting to express his gratitude.
However, he would not respond to this kind of thing and would just let public opinion ferment.
At night, "A Laugh in the Sea" unexpectedly topped the weekly charts.
The reason why it was said to be an accident was because the speed was faster than Song Yu expected.
Today is Friday.
Song Yu originally thought that he would not be able to become number one until the ranking change on Monday.
His doubts disappeared after reading the comment section.
Because his fan base is expanding.
"My dad, who is almost 50 years old this year, has never been star-struck, but "A Laugh in the Sea" made him change his mind."
"My dad heard "A Laugh in the Sea" somewhere, and he asked me to buy and download it for him as soon as I got off work."
"Not only my father, but even my grandfather has not escaped the charm of Brother Yu. He now likes "Loyalty to the Country" and "A Smile in the Sea".
To be honest, Song Yu really didn't expect that these two songs would have such a devastating effect on old men.
But when I think about it carefully, I think it makes sense.
When they were young, martial arts was at its most popular.
Everyone has a martial arts dream deep in his heart.
"Loyalty to the Country" and "A Laugh in the Sea" are relatively retro in nature.
Just their type.
In addition, the quality is extremely good, so it is normal to have such a reaction.
And the most important thing is that Song Yu became famous enough after the Spring Festival Gala.
Now these two songs have brought back their memories, and naturally, their singers are also familiar and even liked by them.
Song Yu's national popularity began to soar.
Of course, the one who benefited the most was the crew of "The Legend of the Heroes of the Sacrifice".
Before, only Song Yu fans were looking forward to it.
But now a large number of middle-aged and elderly people have also joined it.
The reason is simple.
"Loyalty to the Country" and "A Laugh in the Sea" evoked their past memories.
The martial arts style, which had been declining, actually showed signs of recovery.
Many martial arts dramas have benefited from this.
Including Longteng Entertainment and Summit Entertainment.
The popularity they expected came true in a way they had never imagined.
Seeing this, Song Yu sent another message.
[A great chivalrous person serves the country and the people. This is the story told in "The Legend of the Heroes of Sheke"]
There is no Mr. Jin Yong in this world, so naturally there is no such sentence.
Most of the martial arts at this time were still in the stage of gratification and revenge.
The great chivalrous person serves the country and the people, which is undoubtedly a brand new concept, and it also improves the concept of martial arts.
In a sense, it is a dimensionality reduction attack.
In fact, we can’t blame other martial arts authors.
Mainly because Mr. Jin Yong is too powerful.
Martial arts is just one of his achievements in life.
It would be too difficult for a second Jin Yong to emerge.
This world doesn't have it, and it's not an accident.
Song Yu's comment area was filled almost instantly.
"Fuck, damn! When I saw this sentence, I immediately became excited!"
"All the martial arts I did before were in vain!"
"I was a fan of "The King of Martial Arts", but now I think this one is too stingy."
"No wonder we chose "Serve the Country with Loyalty" as the theme song, it's awesome!"
"Quick! Bring me "The Legend of the Withering Heroes" quickly. If I can't see it again, I'm going to die!"
"Brother Yu, the eternal god! My whole family has joined the ranks of watching dramas. This is really the first time in so many years."
"My father, my grandfather and I have achieved a rare unity. I never dreamed that the three of us would like the same star."
The hopes that Longteng Entertainment and Summit Entertainment had just seen were shattered again.
The market is hot, but it has nothing to do with them.
Unless they change the content immediately.
It's just no longer possible.
Now they can only pray that "The Legend of the Heroes of the Withered Heroes" is a bad movie, otherwise, no one can beat it.
Given the current popularity, a big start has become inevitable.
The happiest thing is of course Penguin Video.
They have exchanged shares for broadcast rights.
They were a little distressed at first, after all, the shares were worth more, but now it seems that everything is worth it.
After "A Laugh from the Sea" is released, Song Yu has four songs left in his new album.
"Blue Lotus", "Broad Sea and Sky", "Chapter Seven of Night" and "Secret Fragrance".
The first two songs were rock music, which reminded him of an old friend, Huang Hao.
"Blooming Life" from his first album was invited by him and premiered at the Lotus Music Festival.
The Lotus Music Festival is a gathering of rock singers and is undoubtedly a suitable place.
The time of holding is not fixed every year.
Last year it was June 4th, this year it happens to be May 1st.
There are still five days left.
Song Yu thought of this and took out his mobile phone.
"Hey, King Song, why do you have time to call me?"
As soon as the call was connected, he heard Huang Hao's teasing.
"Brother Hao, thank you very much." Song Yu said with a smile, "I'm still a long way from being a king."
"Okay, don't be humble, it's destined." Huang Hao said, "Besides, you are not a king, you will make those kings restless."
"Brother Hao, I'm calling to ask you something." Song Yu changed the subject in time.
"What's the matter?" Huang Hao was a little surprised and asked, "Can I still help you?"
"Can I participate in this year's Lotus Music Festival?" Song Yu said.
"Are you kidding me?" Huang Hao rolled his eyes, "Even if I am not qualified to participate, you are qualified to participate."
Although Song Yu is not a rock singer, and the rock circle is somewhat xenophobic, no matter how xenophobic he is, it is impossible to reject a top king.
Even if some rock singers are unhappy, the organizer of the Lotus Music Festival will not be stupid.
No one dares to offend Song Yu now.
"Is it your new song?" Huang Hao said again, "If Brother Xu knows that you are still writing rock music, I think he will be very happy."
"There are two new rock songs, so do you mind if I sing one more?" Song Yu asked.
"Are you saying these things again? Don't you know your current status?" Huang Hao complained, "You sing ten songs and no one dares to say anything."
To be honest, Song Yu really didn't have much experience.
After all, he hasn't had many interactions with outside singers since his debut.
I don't know what level I have reached now.
After hanging up the phone, Song Yu logged into Kanke and posted a preview of the new song.
"The new rock songs, "Blue Lotus" and "Broad Sea and Sky" will be premiered at the Lotus Music Festival."
After sending it out, he stopped taking care of it.
However, what Song Yu didn't know was that this line of spectators had a considerable impact.
The Lotus Music Festival is held every year and the guests are relatively fixed, so tickets are often not sold out.
After all, it was packed with 60,000 people.
Many times it is good to achieve seven or eight achievements.
But after Song Yu made the announcement, all the tickets were sold out instantly.
Some even add money to purchase them on various second-hand platforms and social platforms.
The price has directly increased tenfold.
The reason is that Song Yu never holds concerts, nor does he hold fan meetings or autograph sessions.
As for variety shows, the audience is only two to three hundred people, so it doesn't satisfy much.
At the Lotus Music Festival, 60,000 people were able to see Song Yu up close and hear his new songs.
You can imagine the feathers going crazy.
Song Yu knew the situation because it was on the entertainment news and popular searches among viewers.
[Because of Song Yu’s new song, tickets for the Lotus Music Festival were sold out, and scalpers even sold them for tens of thousands of yuan.]
This reminded him that he could indeed hold a concert.
As a singer, no concert is complete.
It just so happens that after his new album, he will not release another album for a long time, but will focus on movies and TV series.
I can take the opportunity to hold a few concerts.
Song Yu had an idea and thought of another good idea, which could be combined with a physical album.
Send tickets directly.
Anyway, you can’t make much money from concerts, so it’s better to focus on physical album sales.
Maybe he can break Zhou Ting's record.
After all, under normal circumstances, it is difficult for the digital album era to beat the sales volume of the physical album era.
You can only use some means.
And compared to money, Song Yu feels that this record is more important to him. This chapter has been completed!
