    "The Swordsman" has entered post-production. The special effects of this drama are not a problem for Amethyst at present. Qin Tianzhu is most concerned about the production of film and television music.

    In the office building of Meihua Music, Qin Tianzhu was expressing encouragement and gratitude to a musician in his late 30s.

    "Dong Hui, your contribution to the TV soundtrack is indispensable for the success of "Full House" this time!"

    The film and television music for "Full House" was purchased from the domestic music industry, and the one who finally stood out was a little-known young man named Dong Hui, which surprised many people.

    After graduating from the Central Conservatory of Music, Dong Hui failed to find a job in the capital. Instead, he worked in planning at an advertising company.  However, he has never given up his pursuit of a music career. After work, he plays the piano and composes music at home whenever he has time. He is especially good at youth and fashion music creation.  After the news of Meihua Media purchasing film and television music from across the country was released, he sent a music demo he had composed with the attitude of giving it a try. Unexpectedly, the melody in the demo was eventually used by "Full House", and he himself also  Become a member of the Full House music crew.

    The music team of "Full House" consists of seven songwriters, all of whom are carefully selected from works sent by Meihua Media from all over the country. Musicians with similar musical styles to the show are mainly young people.  In this seven-member group, Dong Hui has high musical talent, has certain social experience, and is good at coordination and communication, so he became the leader of the music group.

    After the "Full House" project ended, the music group performed well and all seven musicians were signed by Plum Blossom Music Company.  When Meihua Media originally purchased music from across the country, recruiting music talents scattered among the people was also an important consideration.

    Faced with Qin Tianzhu's praise, Dong Hui asked a little shyly and doubtfully: "Does Director Qin really approve of the performance of our music group? In fact, the music of "Meteor Garden" is also very good, such as "The Love Is Unavoidable"  ", "The Love You Want", "Meteor Shower" and other songs are more popular in China than our original songs in "Full House". I think Director Qin should be concerned about the performance of our music group  Criticism."

    "Hey, Dong Hui, you don't mean what you said!"

    Qin Tianzhu waved his hands and said with some dissatisfaction: "Although I am not a professional in music, I also know that the most important thing about film and television music is to perfectly match the film and television content, properly create the atmosphere in the film and television drama, and express the meaning of the drama.  The emotional changes of the characters. Your music group has produced 12 original songs for "Full House". Taken alone, they may not be as popular as "Meteor Garden", but they can better guide the audience's emotions to follow.  The ups and downs of the plot highlight the excitement of the plot. The original soundtrack of the film and television is to serve the film and television drama, and is an organic whole with the film and television drama. I can't say that the music of "Full House" is necessarily better than that of "Meteor Garden", but  Your music must be excellent film and television soundtracks."

    Dong Hui nodded in agreement after hearing this. He was also a very proud person at heart. He was afraid that the company's senior management would not realize the value of their music, so he asked this question.  Now that Qin Tianzhu said this, he felt relieved knowing that Meihua Media would not bury his talent.

    "Dong Hui, your music group is better at youth urban music. In the future, if you have more people, you can form a studio or a music production company. The company will fully support it!"

    Dong Hui was extremely excited after hearing this.  Qin Tianzhu couldn't help but smile when he saw his appearance.  He found that being a company CEO is not complicated at all. It just means constantly encouraging and spurring subordinates, and the best way to encourage them is to help them make a bigger pie one by one.

    After encouraging this group of musicians who had recently joined the company, he asked Hu Haiquan about the production progress of the film and television music for "The Swordsman".

    "The progress is still very good. At present, the music team has completed the production of nearly 20 background music. Mainly Luo Xiaoying and Luo Jiyi are very good at this kind of martial arts style music. Not only have they created a large number of works, but their works are also very good.  excellent."

    Hu Haiquan excitedly took Qin Tianzhu into the company's recording studio and let him enjoy several pieces of music that had been recorded.

    In the recording studio, Luo Xiaoying, Luo Jiyi and others were still there, adjusting the recording equipment. When Qin Tianzhu came in, everyone played him a melody composed by Luo Jiyi.

    With the melody, people around him closed their eyes very naturally and enjoyed the world created by the music. Qin Tianzhu was also affected by them, eliminating distracting thoughts and enjoying the music quietly.

    This piece of music, which lasts for more than two minutes, has a melodious and melodious melody that makes you cry, and seems to have infinite sadness and poignancy.  The piece is composed of erhu and flute as the main instruments.  Erhu is very soft and lyrical, and the sound it produces is very singing, just like a human singing voice, drawing the listener into?A world full of sadness and loss.  The flute is also very expressive, playing colorful notes such as legato and portamento, and expressing the emotion of the theme of sadness.  In addition, the flute also imitates the sounds in nature, bringing the listener into the artistic conception of mountains and flowing water. This not only does not affect the expression of the theme, but also adds to the description of Jin Yong's martial arts world.

    This song not only embodies the chivalrous tenderness in the martial arts world, but also adds the element of confiding, which is very touching.  The melody itself is very sad and graceful, and the whole song feels like it is telling a sad story.

    It¡¯s a very good melody. Qin Tianzhu has consciously paired this piece of music with scenes from ¡°Swordsman¡± in his mind.

    "Is this song "Return to the Dreaming Fairyland"?"

    Qin Tianzhu is naturally familiar with this classic song, which was later composed by Luo Ji as the theme song for "Sword and Sword 4".

    "Return to Dream World?"

    After Luo Jiyi heard this, he suddenly seemed very excited, "Yes, yes, I want this name, it's very artistic!"

    Qin Tianzhu was sweating profusely. It seemed that this song had just been completed. Luo Jiyi and the others had not named the song yet, but he quickly said it.

    In the following time, Qin Tianzhu listened to the nearly 20 pieces of music that had been completed.  Some of these songs he had an impression of, while others he had never heard of at all.  Although the overall level is somewhat uneven, it is generally above the standard, and the martial arts style of music is also consistent.

    After appreciating the completed work, Hu Haiquan summarized the work of the music team, "The original soundtrack of "The Swordsman" includes 2 opening and ending songs, sung by Chen Yufan and myself, and 5 female interludes, each by Xu  The five female lead singers, Qin, Li Xiaoran, Cheng Hao, Shen Aojun, and Zuo Xiaoqing, are currently receiving some vocal training."

    Qin Tianzhu has already heard the ending song, which is a heavenly song "Dividing the Earth into a Prison" composed by Luo Xiaoying. As for the opening song, Yuquan and the two are currently composing it. Qin Tianzhu is curious about what work they will come up with.

    ¡°It¡¯s not all smooth sailing!¡±

    After introducing the results, Hu Haiquan also talked about the areas where there was little progress: "Director Qin pointed out that there are passages in the script that require music, but we have not yet created suitable music in several places. For example, the piano in "The Swordsman"  Director Qin¡¯s requirements for the music for the flute ensemble are very high. It must reach the level of classics. The music must have a free and transcendent feeling of seeing through the grievances of the world and focusing on the mountains and rivers. It must also meet the taste of young people and not be too fresh and dull. Our music  The team has been working hard for so long, but we are still not satisfied, and we can never achieve perfection!"

    After Hu Haiquan finished speaking, everyone in the music group felt a little confused.  Qin Tianzhu didn't criticize them too much. Manpower is sometimes scarce. Most of these musicians are in their twenties and thirties. They can't do whatever they want in their creations, so it's understandable that they encounter some bottlenecks.

    "Then do you have any solutions?"

    Although they encountered some difficulties, their music group still needed to come up with an alternative plan.

    Hu Haiquan asked: "Director Qin, I wonder if you must be original in the music for the film and television soundtrack of "The Swordsman"?"

    Qin Tianzhu said without thinking: "Of course!"

    He gave the show a music budget of as much as 15 million, and of course he hoped they would come up with original works.  However, seeing the embarrassed expressions of Hu Haiquan, Luo Jiyi, Luo Xiaoying and others, he knew that this was probably an alternative they had come up with.

    Qin Tianzhu decided to make some concessions, "Of course, if you can find suitable music that makes you famous, it is not impossible to consider it. But I have a few requirements. First, there can't be too much non-original music. One or two will be enough; second, I have a few requirements.  2. The melody must be beautiful and must be seamless with the plot; 3. Our audience must feel fresh after listening to it. Those Japanese soundtracks that are used badly in Hong Kong martial arts dramas must not be used."

    After everyone listened, they all breathed a sigh of relief. Although Qin Tianzhu was very strict about using non-original music, they were confident that the music they chose could meet the requirements.

    Luo Xiaoying said: "Director Qin, you must have heard of the famous Greek composer Yanni, right?"

    Qin Tianzhu shook his head, feeling a little embarrassed himself.  Qin Tianzhu's reputation is that he is also a genius in music, but in terms of musical attainments and knowledge of music, he is really lackluster.

    Luo Xiaoying and others were a little surprised, but they didn't ask much. He continued: "Yani composed a song "Nightingale" specially for China at the Forbidden City concert in 1997. It is a world-famous song and very contagious.  The melody also meets the aesthetic requirements of Oriental people. After we made some musical arrangements of this tune, it is very suitable to be used as the piano and flute ensemble in "The Swordsman"."

    Qin Tianzhu is a bit strange?: "Since it has been performed in Beijing, will the audience feel fresh after listening to it?"

    Hu Haiquan nodded affirmatively: "This type of pure music has always been a niche in China, especially for young people who are used to listening to pop music, "Nightingale" is definitely fresh."

    Hu Haiquan himself is very confident about this. Half of the people in the music industry like Qin Tianzhu know nothing about Yanni. Ordinary young people will definitely be amazed after listening to "Nightingale".

    He first played a piece of the original song of "Nightingale" to Qin Tianzhu.

    The ghostly melody of the empty valley sounded, and Qin Tianzhu was immediately attracted in

    "I didn't say anything, this is the melody I need, and everyone's work is indeed extraordinary. We bought the adaptation rights, and we will use this song "Nightingale"!" (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!  )
