Chapter 265
"It looks like it's getting better." Fang Zhao said.
"It's still a little bit late. I encountered some problems and haven't solved them, but I said that they can be completely overcome within half a year, and they will probably be completely cured in the next three to five years."
Speaking of Ming Ye's condition, Ming Cang and his wife are now blushing, and the big stone in their hearts that once made them breathless had already moved away.
Because everyone was busy, Fang Zhao had not asked Ming Ye's treatment in detail. Now he came to visit and just came to learn about it. He was also very curious about this, but the previous treatment was not made public. Fang Zhao only learned about the progress from the medical journal. However, that was from the perspective of the researchers, and now he learned about the treatment from the Ming Cang and his wife.
After talking, it was time to order for dinner.
"Xiao Fang, have you brought the driver? I'll call you to have a meal together. We don't have that much attention here." Su Tong said enthusiastically, "After the meal, let Teacher Ming tell you what to pay attention to in the concert."
Yan Biao and Zuo Yu, who were called upstairs, tried to reduce their presence as much as possible, especially Yan Biao, because Zuo Yu said that he was full of banditry and would scare the children. If Yan Biao rolled his eyes and ignored him, he now seemed restrained.
After the meal, Yan Biao and Zuo Yu sat in the living room, facing Su Tong's warm reception, their faces froze.
"Drink tea? Or juice?" Su Tong asked.
"No, no, let's drink some warm water and do it yourself. You can go and do it, we'll wait here." Zuo Yu said hurriedly.
Seeing Yan Biao and Zuo Yu's uncomfortable appearance, Su Tong did not insist anymore and took Ming Ye into the room to guide him to speak.
Yan Biao and Zuo Yu were left in the living room, and finally relaxed.
Faced with rough men or some shrewd businessmen, they can be relaxed everywhere, but in this family with a strong artistic atmosphere, they really feel a little restrained and dare not speak loudly.
"Hey, Zuo Yu, ask you something." Yan Biao lowered his voice, his face full of curiosity.
"What?"
"What disease did Ming Ye, Professor Ming's son have? Is it really good to listen to the boss's music?"
“It can be said yes, or it can be said not.”
"Yes, no, no, what do you mean?" Yan Biao was not satisfied.
"For example, the boss's previous "A Hundred Years of Destruction" series of movements was like a key key to open the door, allowing the research team to find the direction of treatment. What followed was the work of the research team. As long as you find the right direction and grasp the key points, you don't have to listen to those movements again."
"To put it simply, if you don't find the right direction, no matter how much time, manpower and financial resources are spent, it will be in vain." Yan Biao understood why the couple was so good. Since they entered the door, the smile on their faces of Ming Cang and his wife had never stopped. But if they think about it, if Yan Biao encountered such a thing, he would be like this.
Yan Biao and Zuo Yu were both in the living room and in the study, Ming Cang told Fang Zhao about the precautions of the concert.
When it comes to concerts, Ming Cang is helpless. Now the people in the upper class of the circle despise money, but they still have to ask the performers to try their best to take the high-end route, especially the concert halls where tickets are expensive and the sales are severely restricted. It seems that only such occasions can match their high-end artistic atmosphere.
In other words, those in the upper class of the circle only recognize the three major music halls in Yanzhou. Even if they can have the opportunity to perform by spending money, they will still recognize them when they mention it, even if they say "full of money and vulgarity".
This is a major feature and a bad habit in the circle today. Ming Cang's power is limited. Even if he has any opinions, he can only adapt to these bad rules.
Ming Cang also told Fang Zhao that if he could not change, he would obey the rules first.
Ming Cang also talked about some details that are easily overlooked before and after the concert.
After thinking about it, Ming Cang said, "So, wait first, I'll check it out. You haven't been to the concerts in the three major halls. No matter how many you say, you may not have a clear understanding. I'll take you to see one and understand. I have a lot of tickets in my hand, so I'll pick one to take you to see it."
After all, he was the president of Qi'an Conservatory of Music and is now the vice president of Yanzhou Music Association. People with status like Ming Cang and others will always receive some invitations, and it is common to receive tickets to the concert venue.
Generally, Ming Cang and his wife are invited, but because of Ming Ye's illness, the couple has pushed all the others except for some more important concerts. Even if they go, they are just going to one person and the other is taking care of Ming Ye at home. Anyway, the tickets are sent, and the decision is up to them if they go.
Fang Zhao watched Mingcang pick and choose, and several young musicians who were quite well-known in Yanzhou were thrown aside by Mingcang.
Seeing Fang Zhao's doubts, Ming Cang explained: "You can't believe the information online. You have seen a lot of entertainment companies like Blade Wing. You should also know that as long as the team behind them is strong, the black ones can be said to be white."
This means that some people here just look very capable, and the team behind them blows them too high, but in fact they have a lot of water, and they don’t have the value of watching, which is a waste of time.
"There are too many people who just regard concerts in the three major music halls as a necessary process and a springboard to climb up. It's not that this is completely wrong. The current situation is indeed the case. But if even the works are just perfunctory, or someone behind them is doing it for them, and the utilitarian nature is too heavy and I forget my original intention, that would be too disappointing." Ming Cang sighed. Whether they devoted their efforts can tell when they heard the works.
"Oh, there is! Hamin, this student is still very capable and has great talent in arrangements. The quality of the concert should be good."
Ming Cang pointed to the two electronic tickets above, and the other party summoned, "I am a student I taught before, and I was taught by your Aunt Su. I came from the arrangement department. I may not have very high talent in composition, but I have very strong arrangement skills."
Look at the time, the night after tomorrow.
"Do you have time?" Ming Cang asked.
"Yes." Fang recalled. It's nothing important. He will definitely move out the night after tomorrow to listen to the concert chosen by Ming Cang.
It was decided that Mingcang asked his wife Su Tong to come over and transfer Su Tong's electronic ticket to Fang Zhao.
"The day after tomorrow, the medical team will come here to do an examination for Xiaoye. If she stays at home, she will not go. I will go with you." Ming Cang smiled, "It's just a weekly inspection, it's okay. She went out for a few days last week, and I was there. This time she stayed at home, so let's go to the concert."
Su Tong naturally had no objection and asked Fang Zhao if one of the games was enough, so she transferred the other tickets together.
Ming Cang stopped him, "There are many things that don't need to be seen here. If you look at it, it will affect your performance. When I have time, I will pick them carefully before transferring them to him."
When Su Tong thought about it, he was right, so he only transferred the ticket to Hawen's concert.
On the day of Hawen's concert.
When he was heading for the golden years, Ming Cang told Fang Zhao about the experience of Hawen, a student, in the car.
"Hawen's performance in the Music Hall this time is a big step in his music career. He is also here in Hall 1. He has been preparing for this concert for twenty years..."
Hawen is already in his fifties this year, which is much later than many of his graduated juniors and juniors. In fact, Hawen started preparing for his own concert shortly after graduation. If things go well, he would hold the first leapfrog concert of his music career in Hall 1, Golden Years in the fifth year after graduation. However, things didn't go well.
At that time, Hawen's company was in crisis and it was impossible for him to have enough energy and financial resources to put it in the concert. Those years were the most difficult period for Hawen, but fortunately, he had already survived, and this was the event today.
"Hawen's joy style is completely different from you. He prefers lyricism and expresses more delicate emotions. The way he takes is different from yours. Just use it as a reference and absorb some useful experience." Ming Cang said.
After arriving at the place, Mingcang would tell Fang Zhao about the details that should be paid attention to from the entrance to the No. 1 hall.
Fang Zhao's first concert will be prepared by Blade Wing. Fang Zhao doesn't need to worry about many things, but what about the future? What if Fang Zhao leaves Blade and does it alone in the future? You can easily deal with it after learning more.
Therefore, Ming Cang will explain some things to pay attention to now to Fang Zhao clearly.
Fang Zhao also listened carefully and remembered every detail. Sometimes, your inadvertent mistake can change your impression of you.
Now Fang Zhao is not able to make a show of music, so it is not easy to offend the old seniors in the music industry who were invited to come.
After entering the venue, sit down according to the seat number on the ticket. There is a music sheet on the seat, the size of A5 paper, very thin, and looks paper-based. When you open it, you will find an electronic screen, which contains the names of the ten music songs from the concert and the introduction of the author Hawen.
Fang Zhao also noticed that in these ten poems, each of which is marked with a hollow circle at the back. He knew the meaning of this symbol, which means that the copyright has not been sold. If the copyright has been sold, it will be a solid circle.
There was still some low-pitched discussion in the concert hall, but after it officially started, it calmed down.
Hawen doesn't look old. After all, the age of the new century is there. She is in her fifties, and in the old century she is only thirty years old. However, she is a little fat and looks very modest. Maybe because of her personal experience, she is more calm and gives people a good first impression.
After the opening thank you speech, the first song was adapted by Hawen a nursery rhyme from the Genesis period, which was played with a harmonica.
In the new century, harmonica is really a niche instrument among the niches, but combined with this adapted nursery rhyme, the melodious tune is with some innocence and purity, and also with some warm feelings.
After the first song, there are solo or ensemble reorganizations of instruments such as violin, flute, classical guitar, etc.
For people in their field, music is the best way to talk, and when displaying their works, they also convey their emotions.
People with deep knowledge can even hear the resonance between music and emotions without even reading detailed introductions of the works.
There is a time to break between each song, introducing the creative background and what the author wants to tell the audience. Fang Zhao learned about these procedures in advance.
The tenth song is also the last song of the concert.
The background on the stage is dark blue, and some metal spots and light are flowing like waves, and the stage images play a role in setting off the atmosphere.
The tenth song is a piano piece played by Hawen himself, adapted from the work of a well-known composer two hundred years ago. Fang Zhao once heard Nati Woods play it on an electric guitar.
The original song is cheerful and lively, while the electric guitar version is boastful and unruly, but the current song is different from the previous two.
Hawen on the stage plays attentively, and the tunes are soothing, but they express deeper and longer emotional traces.
The original song is more than four minutes, while the adapted piano variations are as long as eight minutes, almost doubled, but they do not seem to be redundant, but instead express the emotions in them more vividly.
It seems as if time gathers into a lake, gusts of breeze blowing, turbulent waves spreading to the hearts, and the occasionally flipped bubbles are filled with the sound of time.
The prosperity has fallen, and we will never forget our original intention, live up to the past, and beauty will last forever.
This is not the best version of the famous song Fang Zhao has ever heard, but it can also be ranked among the top three, which is amazing. There is no doubt that this is a high-quality variation version.
No wonder Mingcang recommends it.
People who can adapt this famous song from two hundred years ago to this level have no doubt about their strength, and their love for music can also be seen from their works.
As Ming Cang said, even if Ha Wen has encountered some bad things, has endured pressure that most people have never suffered, has experienced ups and downs, has experienced wealth to poverty and then to wealth, and has seen the cruelty of reality clearly, it is quite rare to still love life and music.
When Fang Zhao thought of something, he laughed again.
He knew why Ming Cang chose Hawen concert and brought him over to see it.
Ha Wen does have the strength. In fact, those who can perform here may not be all full of water. There are many geniuses, but in the end, Ming Cang chose Ha Wen's show and personally led Fang Shou to come and see it.
In fact, Ming Cang was just telling Fang Zhao tactfully, asking Fang Zhao not to be fascinated by the current high popularity and interests. The ups and downs of the entertainment industry have changed too quickly, and no one can know what the next moment of shining will be, whether it will be silent or more brilliant?
No one can guarantee it.
It is naturally the best to succeed in the concert in August. If you can’t, don’t be discouraged. Look at this senior Hawen, who is in his fifties, hasn’t he survived step by step?
The facts are indeed as Fang Zhao expected. Ming Cang was worried that Fang Zhao was under too much pressure. After all, Yin Yi is a commercial company, and everything is focused on interests and may not be considered in other aspects.
The media's close attention, the invisible pressure exerted by economic companies, and the public's evaluation, all may affect the development of his person.
Ming Cang wanted to tell Fang Zhao that if you fail at that time and fail to achieve the expected results, don’t give up. You can’t collapse or be timid. You are still young and have opportunities.
