Chapter 502: The Story of the Stone
At 6:45, dinner finally started.
But when he was sitting down to eat, Lu Dongjie noticed that everyone looked at him a little strangely.
Especially Lu Xiaomei kept looking at the two of them, smiling so ambiguously, as if she had discovered something interesting.
Even Zhao Ya blushed slightly, her little hands quietly pinching him in the audience, hinting at something.
Lu Dongjie's mind changed quickly, and he immediately realized that he must have forgotten to wipe his mouth after eating secretly, and they saw something wrong.
He picked up the bowl as if nothing had happened, took a sip of the soup, wiped his mouth, "Mom's soup is really delicious."
Lu Xiaomei rested her chin on the stage with her hands, laughing uncontrollably, "Brother, your acting skills are getting worse and worse."
Zhao Yazhi felt so guilty that she didn't dare to talk to him. She only dared to lower her head and drink the soup, secretly blaming herself for not paying attention carefully.
Dad Lu coughed slightly, smiled and said, "Little sister, go and turn on the TV. The premiere of "Dream of Red Mansions" is tonight, right?"
Lu Xiaomei didn't dare to go against her father's words, so she obediently turned on the TV, and then turned to Jiashi.
The program being broadcast on Jiashi TV at this time is the political commentary program "Viewpoints and Perspectives" produced by Radio Television Hong Kong.
Officials and elites comment on current affairs in one direction, with lackluster views and rigid promotion of policies.
Tonight, Jiayi TV's big production "Dream of Red Mansions" will be released. Of course, the whole family should watch it on time and support it.
Jiawei has launched the largest publicity plan for this drama, spending a lot of money to place advertisements on the front pages of major newspapers.
Even Tiantian Daily, owned by Lu Dongjie, published a front-page poster for the first time with Mi Xue dressed as Xue Baochai in the film.
At the same time, huge advertisements were placed at the Tsim Sha Tsui Pier and the Central Pier, two ferry terminals with a large flow of people.
Cars were even used to create mobile advertisements, cruising back and forth outside Happy Valley.
It's just that Li's TV is broadcasting live broadcasts of the Jockey Club races, and the photographer was made miserable by Jia Shi's slutty practices.
They had to use their cameras to capture the heroic figures of the chasing jockeys, and at the same time, they had to avoid Christie's advertisements from straying into the camera frame.
The jockeys on the field were chasing each other, and the two TV stations outside the field were also chasing each other.
Tonight's prime time, the three TV stations broadcast TV series, including classical and fashion.
Jiashi premiered "Dream of Red Mansions", Li's also premiered "TV People", and TVB's "Family Change" was also on the air.
It's 6:55 pm on Jiashi TV, 7:00 sharp on LiTV, and 7:05 on TVB.
Jiayi TV has taken advantage of it, hoping to capture the audience's desire to watch in the first five to ten minutes? No channel switching.
Not only the audience is looking forward to tonight, but people in the entertainment industry are also paying attention to tonight's TV battle.
The recent "red tide" in the entertainment industry is too overwhelming, with good shows taking turns and topics changing constantly.
Now the TV version of "Dream of Red Mansions" has finally been released, and this is the first time that the full version has been brought to the screen.
As competitors, Wireless and Li's? Finally, they no longer dare to look down on this little brother Jiashi.
Last weekend, Jiashi became an instant hit in Hong Kong with its police drama "Witness Protection Unit", which racked up ratings like crazy.
Even theater chains and film studios are complaining, saying that the television industry does not leave a way for them to survive in the film industry.
They finally waited until the weekend to coax the audience out to watch a movie in the theater? In the end, they all preferred to watch TV series at home.
In addition, people in the music industry and fans are also paying attention to this drama, which means that there will be another classic TV song tonight.
There is no doubt that according to Jiashi's current division of labor, the theme song and interludes of this drama will still be produced by Lu Dongjie.
They all want to know what kind of songs this outstanding young man in the music scene will accompany this Chinese classical masterpiece.
Everyone knows that Lu Dongjie is very good at pop music? But Chinese classical music style may not be his forte.
The family just drank the soup first and the food was not touched. It was already 6:55.
Miss Lu couldn't help but exclaimed: "Here he comes, look."
The screen came into view, and the Jia Mansion guarded by two stone lions appeared, and the vermilion gates of the deep courtyard opened.
At the same time, something like a guzheng performance or a prelude to the guqin sounded, which plucked the audience's heartstrings.
Such a touching melody has an ethereal feeling, and it is even more beautiful when it echoes in my heart.
However, laymen see the excitement, while insiders see the door.
Many people in the music industry who were watching the TV had an indescribably weird look on their faces at the whole introductory paragraph.
You may say it's weird, but it's indeed weird. The guitar plays the melody of the guqin.
But to say it is hard to listen to is not wrong, its melody is very beautiful, and people fall in love with it as soon as they listen to it.
Just a prelude makes people think about what will happen next.
Then a low and lingering voice came from the TV:
I've seen it all, the cold breeze blows and the snow gradually thickens
Shoes are worn and soaked on the road
Look again at the distant green mountains and the fluttering catkins and weak willows
Zeng Du was drunk and lost weight
Listen to the ethereal music of the world
Dancing alone with disheveled hair
........
The melody and lyrics are undoubtedly a Chinese classical minor tune, but there is no Chinese instrument playing.
In front of the screen, especially those young people who like to play Band, everyone seemed to have discovered a miracle, with extremely surprised faces.
Such a cool guitar and this swing music style imitate the style of ancient Chinese music, which is really fresh.
They usually play in bands and sing English songs as a fashion, and have no regard for popular songs in other languages.
But now, someone has completely subverted their knowledge and exposed them to an unprecedented field.
It turns out that by using the instruments in their hands and playing Chinese minor tunes, the combination of the two can sound equally good and amazing.
Li Wanjuan couldn't help but praise: "This song is really nice, the lyrics, music and singing are top-notch, and you Hong Kong music people are so awesome."
It is really difficult for her to be exposed to such popular songs in the environment she lives in, and the immediate auditory impact is very strong.
Of course, if she had been exposed to Xu Guanjie or Big AL's songs first, I'm afraid she wouldn't be so praised.
After Li Wanjuan finished speaking, she saw that everyone was holding back laughter and couldn't help but wonder, "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"
Xiaomei Lu covered her mouth and giggled, "Aunt Xi, you are right, but if you praise big brother in person like this, he will be embarrassed."
Li Wanjuan was obviously startled and looked at her in disbelief, "Could this be..."
Lu Dongjie softly throated his voice and said solemnly, "Auntie, I'm here right now."
Mother Lu hit him on the head angrily, "Why are you talking? You are really neither big nor small, and you are lazy and funny."
Zhao Yazhi smiled secretly. This man bullied her so miserably. Finally, someone was willing to give in to her.
The sad singing voice came clearly from the TV:
Throw away your thoughts wholeheartedly
But it seems false but true
Old dreams come back to life in the deep courtyard
Focusing on life and death, drinking together with wine
Who knew that smile concealed tears?
.....
Audiences who are sensitive to words can't help but admire that the lyrics of this song are very beautifully written, and they are completely in line with the Dream of Red Mansions.
But it uses Western instruments to express pop songs with Chinese minor tunes, which is really amazing.
In particular, the arrangement is so amazing, it fully brings out the Chinese color, and the ethereal singing sounds make people feel like they are in a fairyland.
There is no doubt that this song has achieved the effect of "entering the house" and is suitable for all ages.
Some senior members of the music industry in the audience suddenly couldn't help but frown, but gradually they relaxed and showed appreciation on their faces.
Because at this point, the chorus main melody played on the guitar creates a subtle sense of dissonance caused by the double tone of the fourth.
But in the whole song Huang Zhongda Lu Bade's harmony, it is this little bit of dissonance that gives people a little unexpected surprise.
Bit by bit calculations
Too far apart
Going round and round, turning into dusty relationships
Nuisance about getting married
Spring night love turns into love
true true false false
All the joys and sorrows are actually deceit
...
While the audience was still immersed in this picturesque singing, the gate of the deep courtyard slowly closed.
Chapter completed!
