Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry

Today, Zhao Yawen is different from her usual student look in a jacket and jeans. She looks bare-faced, wearing a pink evening dress and heavy makeup, making her look even more gorgeous and beautiful than usual.

She was also invited to attend the ceremony and attended the party as the original singer of "Bai Suzhen at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain". If this song is selected into the top ten hits, she will have to perform on stage, so she seems a little excited.

"Ready?" Yu Dongqing smiled.

"Yes!" Zhao Yajing nodded firmly. She firmly believed that the song she sang would definitely win the award!

It was written by Teacher Yu.

"Teacher Yu"

It was a man and woman who turned out to be Ai Tong and Zhang Fan from Jinye Records. They attended the ceremony as the original singers of "Learning to Meow".

Ai Tong is also very happy.

Although Yu Dongqing only gave her one song, "Learning to Meow", and some people on the Internet criticized it as a slobbery song, but there are so many people singing it, isn't it still shortlisted for the top ten golden songs?

Besides, this song made her a lot of money.

I'm just a little unhappy about sharing it with this scumbag next to me!

Originally this song was written for me by Teacher Yu! As a result, the company had to sing the same song as him, and even the income was cut in half.

When will I ask someone to write a poem for me again?

So Ai Tong's cry is also particularly sweet.

Zhang Fan didn't bother to call anyone teacher, since he didn't lack resources anyway, but seeing the two girls being so respectful, he had no choice but to call him Teacher Yu.

Yu Dongqing smiled faintly and didn't say much, just nodded.

At this time, Wu Lan came over from not far away.

Today, Wu Lan wore a sapphire blue dress. Compared with her usual professional skirts, she revealed the charm of a Jiangnan woman. She came as a special award guest.

Yu Dongqing joked: "Dongqing, you are so respected today. So many people call you teacher."

Ah?

To be honest, the term "teacher" has become so common in the entertainment industry. Regardless of newcomers or senior artists, they are all called "teacher". Some even call props and makeup teachers "teacher".

But that's not what Wu Lan meant. She mainly meant the songs written by Yu Dongqing for these singers.

In addition to Zhao Yawen, Ai Tong, Tang Guang, etc., for example, Huang Haiming, a singer from Lijing Records, also publicly respected Cheng Yu Dongqing as his teacher.

In fact, he is similar in age to Yu Dongqing, but because of the two love songs he sang and "Young Jinshi", he became popular in the music industry.

Funny to say, although Yu Dongqing was the first to sing these three songs and publish them online, they did not have too many commercial operations. On the contrary, Huang Haiming's version was more popular due to the vigorous promotion by the record company.

Huangdu TV specifically sought Yu Dongqing's opinion for this purpose, and with his consent, Huang Haiming participated in the ceremony as the original singer of these three songs.

In this regard, Huang Haiming also publicly expressed his gratitude to Yu Dongqing for such a high profile.

No, when Huang Haiming saw Yu Dongqing coming in, he immediately rejected the reporter who was interviewing him, hurried over, and respectfully called "Teacher Yu."

actually

It really doesn't matter.

I'm too lazy to go up and show my face.

Saying hello to these familiar people, Yu Dongqing saw Jin Yunfeng with his slicked back hair again, who was attending on behalf of Huangdu TV Station.

The two shook hands and exchanged greetings, then heard Jin Yunfeng say: "Hey, Mr. Xia from Xiangjiang is here. I have to go say hello to Dongqing. You can do whatever you want. We can talk when we have time."

"Okay, I'm busy with you." Yu Dongqing followed the staff's guidance and came to his seat. Next to him was Hong Kong star Zhang Mingjia, and next to him was Wu Jingqi.

The two were already familiar with each other. Yu Dongqing chatted with her for a few more words before sitting down. When he saw Zhang Mingjia sitting next to him, he nodded politely as a greeting.

Unexpectedly, the other party did not respond and turned around to chat with Wu Jingqi.

Ah?

Quite arrogant.

Unlike Wu Jingqi who focuses on her singing career, Zhang Mingjia is a film and television singer. She is a popular niche student in Hong Kong, and of course she has a big air.

Yu Dongqing didn't care, and sat in his seat. He was looking for his third uncle Yu Hongguang to sit, and found that he was sitting two rows behind him, sitting with a group of singers who were shortlisted for songs, such as Zhao Yawen. The body is straightened and the mouth is closed, looking a little nervous.

Yu Dongqing took out his mobile phone and sent a WeChat message to Zhao Yawen, saying to take care of his third uncle. It was his first time attending such a party and he was inevitably a little overwhelmed.

Zhao Yawen replied instantly.

Over at Jin Yunfeng, he was chatting animatedly with Xia Wenxi while walking.

Today Xia Wenxi specially wore a black stand-collar woolen coat and looked energetic.

The two of them walked to the middle seat of the guest table, and Jin Yunfeng invited him to sit down. He sat on the edge to accompany him, and Wu Jingqi sat on the other side. The girl immediately stood up and greeted him to show respect.

Xia Wenxi did not sit down. When she saw Yu Dongqing beside her, she suddenly walked over.

"Hello, Mr. Yu."

Yu Dongqing didn't expect that the other party would suddenly come over to greet him. He was stunned for a moment, but quickly stood up with a smile and stretched out his right hand: "Hello, Mr. Xia."

"Mr. Yu, I am very interested in the songs you wrote. Can we sit down and chat with you?" Xia Wenxi said.

this?

It's not that Yu Dongqing is unwilling, but for an important ceremony like this, the seats of the guests are arranged in advance, and their influence, qualifications, traffic, etc. in the entertainment industry must be considered. Now Xia Wenxi suddenly asked to sit with Yu Dongqing , how to change?

Let Xia Wenxi sit on the side?

Definitely inappropriate?

He is an important guest at this ceremony, and Jin Yunfeng is sitting next to him. We can't let Yu Dongqing and Jin Yunfeng change places, right?

The staff suddenly became embarrassed.

Wu Jingqi was very smart and immediately stood up and said with a smile: "Mr. Yu and I will change places. You are both great composers. Let's have a good chat."

Xia Wenxi nodded appreciatively.

He had a good impression of this girl. She had a long and beautiful voice. More importantly, she had focused on singing since her debut. Unlike some singers who immediately rushed to make movies and TV series to make money after becoming famous.

oh.

That's it.

Xia Wenxi glanced at Zhang Mingjia, who was sitting next to Wu Jingqi.

Yu Dongqing couldn't refuse. After saying thank you, he sat next to Xia Wenxi. Next to him was the somewhat arrogant Zhang Mingjia.

"Mr. Yu, I have read your masterpieces, and I found that you are very good at extracting the essence from ancient Chinese traditional music and innovating the new."

"For example, the song "Men Should Be Strong" was adapted from the General's Order, "Bai Suzhen at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain" is in Huangmei tune, and "Little Knife Club Overture" is also in traditional Chinese folk music. It seems that you have a lot of research on Chinese traditional music. "

"Where." Yu Dongqing shook his head modestly: "If we talk about promoting and inheriting traditional Chinese music, your Cantonese songs are unique. The early Cantonese pop songs were derived from the ditties in Cantonese opera."

"Oh, it seems that Mr. Yu is also very knowledgeable about Cantonese pop songs?"

"Haha, I can't talk about it, I just like to hear it."

Yu Dongqing is right.

It is generally believed that the origin of Cantonese pop songs was in the early 1950s, and the original Cantonese pop songs were derived from the ditties in Cantonese opera.

Xiaoqu is the transition score of traditional Cantonese opera. In addition to the original Cantonese score, a large number of catchy and popular Mandarin period songs, European and Western pop songs and even provincial folk songs are used, filled with Cantonese lyrics, and presented with Cantonese opera singing and soundtrack.

Therefore, the music scores written by real Cantonese lyricists and composers such as Gu Jiahui, Lu Guanting, Hu Weili, etc. in the original time and space have strong traditional national music.

The lyricists, such as Huang Zhan and Lin Xi, all have a very profound foundation in Chinese studies and literature.

The two were very happy. Yu Dongqing suddenly heard a low but harsh Cantonese voice coming from next to him: "He is just a mainland boy. What Cantonese does he know?"

Turning around, he saw that it was Zhang Mingjia and Wu Jingqi talking.

Wu Jingqi frowned slightly after hearing this.

How can you talk like this?

So rude!

Fortunately, Yu Dongqing can't understand Cantonese, otherwise it would be embarrassing.

What she didn't expect was that Yu Dongqing could understand Cantonese.
