Liao Yuan is not very interested in making TV series, but he is somewhat interested in making movies.
Especially not long ago, I directed and acted in the short film "The Tuner". After it was well received both inside and outside the industry, I did have the idea of making a big movie. When I heard Qu Liangwei's suggestion, I thought it was a good idea.
opportunity.
Just playing opposite Lin Weiyin...
Liao Yuan frowned, feeling something was inappropriate.
After all, Lin Weiyin is a grand pianist, not a professional actor, and naturally knows nothing about acting. Based on Liao Yuan's understanding of Lin Weiyin's character, he may not be interested in making movies.
After telling Qu Liangwei that he would consider it, Liao Yuan returned home and after taking care of his work matters, he couldn't help but start opening computer files and starting to sort out the script.
Movies about pianos...
The first movie that popped into Liao Yuan's mind was "The Pianist".
This film left a deep impression on Liao Yuan in his previous life, and even shocked his soul. In that era when life was like a piece of grass, a little man's desire and humbleness for survival became even more touching.
The film is adapted from the autobiography of Polish Jewish composer and pianist Schipilman. It specifically describes the story of a Polish Jewish pianist who struggled to survive during World War II.
But, I am Chinese!
Liao Yuan's eyes lit up after typing on the keyboard.
He thought again of the famous "The Pianist on the Sea".
Liao Yuan is somewhat obsessed with this movie and feels that he must make this movie in his lifetime.
Because the "Immortal Movement" he played at the Ichiki Yonko Piano Competition was an episode in this movie.
However, the movie uses more exaggerated piano fighting techniques. For example, after a piano conversation that goes beyond the limit, the hero lights a cigarette with hot strings.
But in reality, this is absolutely impossible.
Of course, this does not prevent Liao Yuan from liking this movie.
"The Pianist on the Sea" tells the life of a legendary piano genius.
In 1900, an orphan was abandoned in the first class cabin on the Virginia luxury cruise ship. He was raised by the sailors on the ship and named 1900.
1900 grew up on a cruise ship and showed his extraordinary talent for playing the piano without a teacher.
He served as a pianist in the ship's band and performed the piano. Everyone who heard him play was deeply moved.
Johnny, the originator of jazz, heard about 1900's superb skills and went on the boat to compete with him. In the end, he felt ashamed and left sadly.
Unfortunately, all these things happened at sea, and 1900 never wanted to set foot on land.
Until one day, he fell in love with a girl, and his feelings flowed on the piano keys...
Thinking of this, Liao Yuan's heart moved.
He feels that "The Pianist on the Sea" is more suitable for the filming opportunities of this movie. The only drawback is that the heroine has slightly less scenes.
Just as he put his fingers on the keyboard and meditated, a melody suddenly sounded in his mind.
He was stunned.
This melody is so familiar.
It even made his head hurt!
"seret, secret..."
Liao Yuan remembered something.
He stood up and paced back and forth.
After a while, he walked into his piano room, sat in front of the computer, and played the keys continuously.
At first, it was disorganized music.
But gradually, the music began to have a rhythm.
""seret"..."
Liao Yuan played the song "Secret" from memory and began to write the notes on the piano score.
After a while, he looked at the neatly written staff full of notes and smiled.
"Seret" was the theme song of the movie "The Secret" in a previous life.
This film is based on high school life. It tells the story of Ye Xianglun, a piano genius who transferred to an art school. In an old piano practice room, he meets Lu Xiaoyu, who plays mysterious piano music, and then unfolds a fantasy love story.
.
In the movie, the male protagonist Ye Xianglun plays this piece of music with unparalleled hand speed in the old piano room of the school.
At the moment of reincarnation, he traveled to twenty years ago and met the heroine.
Liao Yuan felt the throbbing in his heart.
He tried to play the song at the fastest speed, but unfortunately, even if the song "Secret" was played at ten times the speed, Liao Yuan could not return to the past.
Liao Yuan smacked his lips, showing an expression of regret.
In the previous life, the movie "The Untold Secret" has been on the market since 2007. Although it has achieved good results in China, it is still far behind the real top box office.
It is even classified as a relatively niche movie,
However, after the movie was released in Japan, South Korea and other places, it blossomed steadily, with the number of viewers and rating index reaching record highs.
In Liao Yuan's opinion, this is probably an environmental problem.
In the past life of China in 2007, people were not very enthusiastic about pianos, and they probably didn't have much patience to continue watching a relatively slow-moving movie like "The Secret That Cannot Be Told".
But this life is different.
Various conditions are even more mature than the atmosphere in Japan and South Korea in the previous life.
Liao Yuan felt that this was an opportunity to try.
And compared to the two movies "The Pianist on the Sea" and "The Pianist", "The Untold Secret" is more suitable for practicing on your own.
As soon as he thought this, he stretched out his hands and began to dance quickly on the keys.
While recalling various melodies from the movie, he wrote down the notes on the piano score with a pen.
Soon, the opening song "Opening", the middle part of the movie "Xianglun Xiaoyu Four Hands", "Tsui Beach", and the shocking "Piano Room" at the end were all written down by Liao Yuan.
In addition, the promotional song of the same name "The Secret That Cannot Be Said" was also casually composed by Liao Yuan.
"The cold coffee left the coaster, and the emotions I held back were far behind..."
Listening to this song with Liao Yuan's current age and emotions, I always feel that it is a bit sad for the Spring and Autumn, and moaning for nothing, but I have to say that the lyrics of this song are indeed beautifully written. I remember that Fang won the Golden Horse Award.
This song written by Wenshan also won the Best Movie Theme Song Award.
When he thought of "The Untold Secret", Liao Yuan couldn't help but want to write "Rainbow" because it was one of his favorite songs in his previous life.
After I finished writing "Rainbow", I thought of "The Longest Movie" again.
Because "The Longest Movie" also appeared in this movie, the heroine Lu Xiaoyu traveled back in time to 1979 in the old piano room. She was sitting in the classroom because she didn't bring asthma medicine, which led to an attack of the disease and eventually died.
Before dying, Lu Xiaoyu wrote the last paragraph on the table with correction fluid, and the narration music was "The Longest Movie".
This night, Liao Yuan was very busy.
In the middle of the night, he wrote theme songs such as "seret" and "The Untold Secret".
In the middle of the night, he returned to his study and typed out the script for the movie "Secrets Cannot Be Telled" word by word in a computer file.
Every dialogue, every character, every word is tried to be as unnecessary as possible.
