Chapter 186 The body is very active (for knocking coconuts for ten thousand coins)
Li Yi won the Best Supporting Actor award at the Berlin Film Festival last time, which is considered a great event in the entertainment industry.
Now he not only showed off his beautiful piano music in the western restaurant, but also composed a Chinese-style song live!
Such a topic immediately led the entire entertainment section the next day.
Not only that, Lang Lang also gave a high rating to Li Yi's performance of piano skills on Weibo.
Lang Lang: [I think brother Li Yi’s piano skills are already at a first-class level.]
Many pianists feel ashamed and say that their own level may not reach Li Yi's level.
Li Yi was confused. Logically speaking, he had only practiced for three days, so how could he surpass all the pianists?
perhaps
Is it because cats and dogs can claim to be pianists?
Li Yi initially thought that a three-day training cycle would be a cycle. If he practiced for another three days, he might be able to reach a higher level.
But this is the same as practicing martial arts.
Just like those special skills "Marriage Dress Magic" and "Shadowless Magic", the higher you get to the top, the more difficult it is to break through.
In the next ten days, even though Li Yi practiced for dozens of hours every day, his piano skills were only slightly better than before.
But my proficiency on the piano and my feel for the keys have changed dramatically these days.
Li Yi was very happy. Although he could not improve his acting skills, at least his musical talent had made some progress.
He put down the piano cover and left home.
Zhang Manfen made an appointment with him for a company meeting at 3:30 p.m.
When meeting Li Yi, Zhang Manfen asked curiously: "When did you learn to play the piano?"
"Hey, I learned it secretly, it was an accident." Li Yi answered easily.
Xin Mei at the front desk ran out of nowhere again. Her eyes were so bright that she wanted to eat Li Yi up. She looked at Li Yi blankly and said, "Brother Yi, you are so handsome when you play the piano!"
"Thank you!" Li Yi smiled.
Last time I teased Xinmei, saying that her eye makeup didn't look good at all, which made her have to put on makeup for half an hour for a week before she dared to go out.
Zhang Manfen saw that Xinmei kept praising Li Yi, so she said: "Okay, please stop praising her. Be careful if the manager comes out, you will be in trouble."
When Xinmei heard this, she immediately left in despair.
"I have ordered someone to record the tune of your song "East Wind Breaks" with ancient instruments. It won't be long before you can go to the recording studio to record an album." Zhang Manfen explained.
Li Yi nodded: "Yeah, okay."
"By the way, I have always had a good script here before, and I was hesitating whether to give it to you. Now it seems that the role in this script belongs to you." Zhang Manfen took out a stack of information from the drawer.
Li Yi was a little curious and asked: "What script is it?"
"It was adapted by a young man from a short film." Zhang Manfen asked him to open the first page.
Li Yi turned to the first page, and the eye-catching title suddenly surprised him.
""The Tuner"?!" Li Yi couldn't help but speak.
"Yes." Zhang Manfen explained: "This script is adapted from a short film, telling the story of a poor piano 'master'. In order to raise 200,000 yuan to go to London to participate in the competition, the male protagonist Akash conducted a 'crazy'
Experiment with 'pretending to be blind.'
"This experiment, which was thought to be 'harmless', brought an unexpected murderous intention to Akash. He accidentally broke into the scene of the rape and witnessed the hostess and her lover cleaning up the body of the male host. Akash fell into a dilemma.
He didn’t know whether to call the police or continue to pretend to be blind, which would trigger a series of stories.”
Li Yi opened his eyes wide and looked at the script with a smile on his face.
Seeing how excited he was, Zhang Manfen asked, "Have you seen that short film?"
Li Yi sighed inwardly, I have not only seen that short film! I have also seen this movie!
This movie is really eye-catching.
Although in the plot of the movie, the male protagonist Akash was blinded by Simi, he finally regained his sight.
Whether in terms of plot or suspense, it can be called a high-quality movie.
Li Yi thought of the task of that book and participated in a suspense movie.
There is no doubt that "The Tuner" with this script is a suspense film!
In addition, if you learn the piano yourself, you will be able to play the piano skillfully without the need for a stand-in.
He couldn't think of a reason for rejecting the play.
"Sister Fen, I want to take on this drama!" Li Yi said solemnly.
Zhang Manfen nodded: "I knew you would accept it. Originally, I was worried that the pianist setting here would be detrimental to you, but I didn't expect that you would take the initiative to learn an instrument."
"Yes, I heard Yingying say before that you intend to be a singer. I discussed it with Manager He. He said that if you come up with an album and hold a concert, the company will support you unconditionally!"
Li Yi was very happy after hearing this: "Thank you, Sister Fen."
"Thank yourself." Zhang Manfen said cheerfully: "I haven't seen such a motivated and diligent artist for a long time."
"I will treat you as Sister Fen and you are praising me." Li Yi blinked.
Seeing that it was getting late, Zhang Manfen urged: "Okay, Director Zhang's "Hero" press conference is about to begin, let's go quickly."
Only then did Li Yi remember that this afternoon was the "Hero" press conference!
The thought of being tortured by various media again made Li Yi miserable.
There is a sense of déjà vu as if you are on the execution ground and being targeted.
Li Yi and Zhang Manfen came to Yuxin Commercial Building, which is the venue for the press conference of the "Hero" movie.
When they arrived, they found that many media reporters were already waiting.
As soon as Li Yi appeared, many reporters followed him.
"Mr. Li Yi, I heard that you conquered everyone with a difficult piano piece in the restaurant before. Do you have any intention to enter the piano art circle?"
"Mr. Li Yi, the song "Dongfeng Po" you composed last time is known as the most Chinese-style song in the past few years, and the ballad you composed last time in Chengdu is also a masterpiece. I would like to ask, are these all your songs?
Was it created on site?”
"Mr. Li Yi, we learned that you went downstairs to play piano music while dining with a mature woman. So I would like to ask if that woman is your undisclosed girlfriend?"
These questions came one after another, causing Li Yi's smiling expression to gradually freeze.
Finally, this situation was broken by one person.
Zhang Yimou said loudly from behind: "You two ask so many questions, which one does he answer best?"
Li Yi looked back and walked over, "Uncle Zhang!"
"let's go."
Zhang Yimou deliberately asked Li Yi to go in with him.
Sure enough, as soon as Mr. Zhang's aura arrived, the media reporters did not dare to say anything more and entered the building one after another.
When Li Yi came to the activity stage, he found that Li Lianjie, Zhang Manyu and others were already chatting there.
Zhang Manyu raised his eyes and saw Li Yi, immediately stood up, opened his arms with both hands, and said excitedly: "Brother!"
Facing Zhang Manyu's enthusiasm, Li Yi couldn't react for a while.
But his body was very active, opening his hands, waiting for Zhang Manyu's embrace.
