Chapter 12 Do you know what a symphony accompaniment is?
Ziwei took Cheng Shi out, took a floating carriage, went to the center of the city, and arrived at a place called Caixiu Restaurant.
This restaurant has a large signboard and is decorated in a luxurious and elegant manner. On the surface, you can tell that it will definitely cost a lot to come here for a meal.
Tzu Ao, this girl must have done it on purpose when she has a meal in such a high-end restaurant!
Standing at the entrance of Caixiu Restaurant, Cheng Shi secretly thought that his 500-plus gold should be enough to have a meal here? If it is a sky-high consumption here and it will be embarrassing.
"Why? I don't dare to go in without money?" Ziwei glanced at Cheng Shi, "Forget it if I can't afford it, just take it as a waste of time and the bet will be invalid."
"No, no, I've come here, go in, I should have a meal." Cheng Shi said.
"Are you sure? This place is precious." Ziwei looked at Cheng Shi with a smile.
Cheng Shi gritted his teeth and said, "Go in and talk about the important things."
The waiter at Caixiu Restaurant was very enthusiastic and attentive. He took the two of them to find a elegant seat, immediately brought melon seed tea, and then waited for them to order food.
The menu has been scanned, it is not surprising, it is indeed expensive!
I guess if Ziwei ordered two more dishes, most of his savings would have to be explained here today.
"Get some green beef leg meat."
"I'm asking for a braised blue-eyed duck."
“Forged tail fish.”
"Volcano bird egg."
Ziwei looked at the menu and ordered dishes.
Cheng Shi began to sweat a little bit on his forehead. The dishes ordered by this girl were not cheap. The ingredients in the dishes they ordered were all scarce, and almost every dish costs 100 gold.
Hundreds of gold, according to the exchange rate of silver coins, it costs about 10,000 silver coins without dishes!
According to her method, Cheng Zhi had to explain more than half of the more than 500 gold coins he had, and I'm afraid that it might not be enough to spend them all.
"I want another one..."
"It's almost done, can you finish ordering so much?"
"I have a big appetite!"
"I think you did it on purpose."
"That's the attitude of asking someone to help invite someone to dinner?"
"Okay, whatever you want, don't blame me for not reminding you. If I can't pay the bill in a while, we are detained here. I am a man and I am not afraid of being embarrassed. If you are not afraid, then just pretend I didn't say anything. The famous corner of Chongyilou is unable to pay the bill for dinner. He was detained in the kitchen to clean dishes, and it was spread...tsk tsk."
"you......"
Ziwei glared at Cheng Shi, but didn't say much, put the menu together, and then said to the waiter, "Another pot of white jade wine, that's all."
The wine and food came in a short while.
All in color, fragrance and taste.
Cheng Shi's eyes lit up after a bite. It can be said that this is the best meal he has eaten so far.
Sure enough, there is a reason to be expensive, and you can't eat such delicious ingredients on earth.
Just while eating, Cheng Shi forgot to even talk about the main things.
Just kidding, I spent tens of thousands of dollars to eat such a meal, so I had to eat a few more bites first to return it!
This meal is really delicious, and Cheng Shi was very happy and had a feast, but it hurts a little.
Seeing Cheng Shi's voracious look, Ziwei's senses towards him were even worse.
A starving ghost seems to be reincarnated, a guy with no quality.
"What do you want me to do for you?"
After almost three rounds of drinking, Ziwei asked on her own initiative.
"Didn't you say it, orchestration arrangement."
"I'll help with orchestration arrangement? Didn't you say the song has been written?"
"It's different. Composition and arrangement are two different things." Cheng Shi wiped his mouth and said, "Do you know what symphony accompaniment is?"
Ziwei's head tilted and she looked at Cheng Shi in confusion.
"A simple explanation is that multiple instruments are used to accompany the song at the same time."
"Isn't this the ensemble? Just say the ensemble just to finish it."
"It's a ensemble."
"Ha, I thought you were going to do what you wanted to do. It turned out to be an ensemble. You can't even handle it? You're so embarrassed to say that you are an artist with high musical attainments, so you can't do it." Ziwei's words were full of contempt.
Cheng Shi ignored Ziwei's contempt and continued, "I have more musical instruments to use, and there may be seven or eight kinds."
"Seven or eight kinds? Are you crazy?" Ziwei said in surprise, "Can you still listen to that song?"
"Why can't you listen?"
"Seven or eight kinds of instruments are ensembled, so many sounds are heard at the same time and you won't die in a mess."
"When did I say that it was a ensemble of seven or eight instruments? I just said that I would use seven or eight instruments."
“Is there a difference?”
"Of course there is a difference. Seven or eight instruments playing the same melody at the same time will certainly appear messy, but what if the sounds are just interweaving and coordinating with each other?"
Ziwei was stunned when she heard this, as if she had some understanding, but she still didn't understand it very much.
Cheng Shi smiled and continued: "I don't need every instrument to play the whole song intact. That is to say, the time nodes used by each instrument are different. They are just interspersed and coordinated with each other. The main function is to add color to the main and secondary sounds, and the volumes of different nodes can also be different. For example, the main melody of my song is completed by the yangqin or the guzheng. At a certain node, I need to have a more rhythmic aphrodisiac, so I can add drum beats, a certain node, and I need ancient rhyme, so I can add erhu, or when I need a certain node to be louder, I can replace the main sound with suona, and the yangqin is supplemented."
Ziwei's eyes lit up, and she seemed to have realized something.
"What else is there?" Ziwei said interested.
"Well... I couldn't explain it clearly for a while. The most important thing is to make the sounds of multiple instruments coordinate and cooperate with each other, so that your music has more distinctiveness, more resonance, more changeable sound, and more beautiful melody."
"The voices coordinate and cooperate with each other..."
Ziwei murmured, her eyes became a little hollow, and she seemed to have begun to practice the starting knowledge in her mind, the scene of multiple instruments symphony and sounds coordinating with each other.
Cheng Shi's words inspired Ziwei very much, as if they were pushing a new door open for her.
Before this, Ziwei never thought that a song could use so many instruments at the same time. It turned out that if they wrote a song, they would only work hard on their own playing skills if they wanted to make the accompaniment tune more and the melody more.
Cheng Shi did not disturb Ziwei, who was in deep thought, picked up the chopsticks and took advantage of Ziwei's dazedness and quickly ate a few more bites of food.
After a while, Ziwei came to her senses and looked at Cheng Shi, who was still eating voraciously. Her eyes became a little complicated, no longer as contempt and contempt as before.
"How did you come up with it?"
Cheng Shi smiled and said, "I said, although I am not as good as you, it does not mean that I don't understand the rhythm."
“Your idea is interesting and feasible.”
"What do you think will be effective if it is done?"
Ziwei was silent for a few seconds, then looked at Cheng Shi and said, "It is very likely... to shock the entire music world!"
