Song Shihua: "It's good that you know, but you must not let the old man down."
"Strange, why do I feel that the old man has more confidence in you than I do."
"Forget it, now we have to start the behind-the-scenes production. Thanks to you, the theme song is finally completed, and the time is right."
Xie Yu also nodded with peace of mind.
The third day.
Xie Yu drove to an elderly activity center as the old man said.
After Xie Yu registered at the guard office, she walked into the senior citizen activity center.
As soon as I entered, I saw several elderly people playing table tennis in good spirits, and a few others were slapping each other's hands and not knowing what they were doing.
Walking further inside, I heard a female voice singing something in an opera tune. Although Xie Yu didn't quite understand it, she still felt that the singing was quite soft and smooth.
After Xie Yu walked in, he happened to see the old man applauding in the audience, with sharp eyes and high spirits. He didn't know whether it was because he was a good singer or because he was a good person.
Waiting for the song to end, the old man came back to his senses and saw Xie Yu. Then he said something to a few people around him and pointed at Xie Yu.
The old man then pointed at Xie Yu and walked in another direction, and Xie Yu naturally followed.
After walking in, Xie Yucai asked in a low voice: "Old man, what should I do with the rest? I will listen to your arrangements."
The old man said confidently: "Xiao Xie, just follow me. I know there is a second-hand small recording studio here. Old friends have eliminated the remaining ones and donated them."
"Although it is second-hand, I can rest assured that it will definitely work. The important thing is that it is free."
Xie Yu followed him with a look of understanding.
Sure enough, just as the old man said, Xie Yu saw a set of second-hand recording equipment in a utility room.
Xie Yu plugged it in and tried it. The effect was quite good and it could be used. Although there were some differences, Xie Yu's job in the last virtual world was to record and score music, so there was no problem in controlling this equipment.
Xie Yu first let the old man and others get familiar with the composition, and then they started to control and adjust the recording equipment.
Not long after, Xie Yu, who was still debugging the equipment, heard the old man and others praising him, and asked Xie Yu to prepare him quickly because they were going to play.
Not long after, Lao Luo, who was already familiar with the lyrics, said: "Xiao Xie, you wrote the lyrics of "The Hero Is My Own" very well. You must have put a lot of effort into it!"
"I didn't expect that at your age, you could not only be proficient in traditional musical instruments, but also write lyrics with such a mood."
Xie Yu quickly said humbly: "Mr. Luo, you are ridiculous. I was born an orphan and have been wandering in society for a long time. Naturally, I have a lot of experience."
Lao Luo: "This child is really not easy, not easy..."
The old man changed the topic at this time and said: "Xiao Xie, how are the preparations going?"
Xie Yu said: "You are ready, you can start."
The old man cheered for a while and suddenly remembered.
Mr. Luo also sang along with the beat:
It's already dusk
The moon is as good as the beginning
Thousands of miles of rivers and rivers
Let me fly across
Live the singing
people look around
Invite the moon to sleep together
Deep in the green mountains
Who is the hero?
It has to be me
After many hardships
Just to change you
Heart remains the same
Who is the hero?
It has to be me
Exhausted
Turn into dust and earth
Just to win you
A beautiful glance
Who is the hero?
It has to be me
Oh my god
Thousands of miles of rivers and rivers
Who is the hero?
It has to be me
Awakening place from dream
Way back
The morning breeze blows
Whose family is strong?
Who is the hero?
It has to be me
The exciting and rogue suona tunes, coupled with Mr. Luo's high and steady voice, sometimes reveal the vicissitudes of life due to his age.
A sense of scene where scenes blend together rushes towards you.
The performance ended and there was silence for a moment.
Xie Yu turned off the recording equipment and started to applaud, saying: "Lao Luo, old man, you sang so well."
Mr. Luo also said proudly: "As I get older, my skills are indeed not as good as before. Xiao Xie, do you need to do it again?"
Xie Yu shook his head: "This time, it's very good. I can use it after repairing it. Sister Song is in a hurry to get it."
"By the way, old man, how do you arrange the soundtrack?"
The old man said: "It depends on what Mr. Luo says, because it requires the use of some professional modern musical instruments. Although I have asked, it is still not easy to organize."
Mr. Luo: "Looking at Xiao Xie, you can tell by his song "The Hero Must Be Me" that Xiao Xie's level is good. I will arrange the musical instruments and musicians."
After talking, Mr. Luo went out to make a phone call with a satisfied look on his face.
Xie Yu and the old man looked at each other and immediately smiled knowingly.
In fact, I showed this song to the old man yesterday and he was very satisfied. However, in order to gather the soundtrack team, I still need to trouble the face-loving Mr. Luo.
Sure enough, Mr. Luo, who was very bored after retirement, suddenly became a singer of TV drama theme songs. Once he was greatly satisfied with his face, he started to work for Xie Yu and others.
Two days later, Mr. Luo brought instruments and musicians, and the old man brought a group of elderly choir. Under the leadership of experienced Xie Yu, the soundtrack of "Heroes Before Dawn" was successfully completed.
After the complete soundtrack was completed, everyone was stunned and everyone expressed their support for the TV series "Tai Chi Master".
In his excitement, the old man changed "Heroes Before Dawn" to "Dawn of Heroes" for Xie Yu, and Xie Yu did not object.
After both songs were completed, Xie Yu also fully joined Song Shihua's behind-the-scenes editing team.
To be honest, this TV series was filmed in just one month. I really appreciate the preliminary preparation work.
Because we were poor and had no money, we all discussed the scripts together before filming started, and rehearsed many times. In addition, TV dramas are not so strict, so many of them were done on the side.
One day, while editing the film, Xie Yu suddenly received a call from classmate Wang Zhong. He only heard Wang Zhong say:
"Coach Xie, let me tell you something. The day after tomorrow will be my last game. After the final stage of the game the day after tomorrow, everything will be over. Let me tell you."
Only then did Xie Yu realize that he had been busy filming TV series recently and had basically forgotten about the chess test. This was not appropriate!
Xie Yu's main job is to be a sparring partner at the Haidao City Chess Academy, and she was temporarily assigned to work by Song Shihua while filming a TV series.
Although Xie Yu had no choice but to come out because of the exclusion of Team Leader Yin and Coach Jin, it would be inappropriate for Xie Yu not to ask about the student chess competition.
At this time, Song Shihua was in a good mood and walked to Xie Yu with three red leather certificates and said: "Xiao Xie, I am the hero of your three pieces, Dawn of Heroes, and Grace and Flowers."
"Because my sister takes good care of you for your contribution, I won't share your patent rights."
"It has been determined that I will be the theme song for the hero, Dawn of Heroes will be the soundtrack in the film, and the graceful flower language will be the ending song."
"In addition, I have already negotiated with the music website. These three songs will also be played on the website on the day the TV series is broadcast."
"It costs one penny for one person to play a song once. Regardless of the song's potential to become popular, just don't forget about you, Sister Song."
Xie Yu touched the three red leather patent documents and said: "Of course I don't dare to forget Sister Song. If it weren't for your song, I would have gotten the certificate so quickly. If I had done it myself, I don't know what it would be like in the Year of the Monkey and the Moon of the Horse.
"
Song Shihua: "You just need to know. This is why you gave your sister and me a lot of face during this filming. I sealed a red envelope for you and you didn't take it."
"Sister, I can only think of this way to help you. Of course, sister knows you better now, and I will look for you next time we cooperate."
