CCTV's little moves made Chen Qi very unhappy. When he engages in creation (plagiarism), it is usually out of necessity, but this time it is different. In order to get rid of CCTV, he copied for the first time just for the sake of plagiarism. Chen Qi urgently summoned Hu Weili back to Beijing, then gave him a lyric, studied it, and decided to compose a song with 100% main theme, extremely popular, and about the great unity of the nation: "Love Me China"! Written by Qiao Yu and composed by Xu Peidong, it is the anthem of the 4th National Ethnic Minority Games and originally sung by Wei Wei. As a result, Wei Weiwei's sense of presence was gone, and everyone only remembered that this song was sung by Captain Song. Because it was a sports meeting, there were some lyrics like "Athletes step up". Chen Qi revised it, hummed a rough melody, and gave it to Hu Weili to compose. What Hu Weili was doing in mainland China was main melody music, and it was only when he went to Hong Kong that he became commercialized, and he became very good at it. "Love My China" is magnificent and suitable for chorus and symphony. His current conditions are limited, so he only perfects the song, sings it once and passes the test, and then thinks about how to process it. There is a controversy about "Love My China", whether it is "Fifty-six Constellations" or "Fifty-six Nationalities". Some say that the collective memory is confused, some say that there are two versions, and some say that it is a fallacy in its dissemination. Anyway, everyone They all feel that their memories are correct.
"There is a chicken in the left hand, a duck in the right hand, and there is a fat doll on the back..." In the CCTV studio, Huang Yihe is also rehearsing intensively. On the stage, Zhu Mingying is singing "Back to Her Mother's Home". It is actually lip-syncing, mainly for the effect of the stage performance. This song is "The Little Wife Returns to Her Mother's Home" by Teresa Teng. Teresa Teng was a popular singer in mainland China and was not allowed to be sung, so Huang Yihe thought of a way and made "Back to My Mother's Home" a Hebei folk song. After the song became popular, the local people specifically asked, saying that we had checked and found that there was no such folk song in Hebei? Even without Chen Qi, Huang Yihe is still a capable person and can handle the Spring Festival Gala. He was now giving full play to his subjective initiative and organizing a program in an orderly manner. At this time, an assistant director suddenly came over and said: "Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao are not coming!" "Are you not coming today, or are you not coming in the future?" "They went to Chen Qi and said they would arrange a new skit. They also said that "Making Movies" was created by them and asked us not to use it." "Then there's no need, it's just as good as that program!" Huang Yihe felt guilty about Chen Qi, but he was also competitive and wanted to win. He asked, "Have you heard any news?" "He is preparing with a group of people at the Ministry of Culture, rehearsing in the small auditorium, and doing all the work himself." "Where's the show?" "The show is very secretive. I don't know what they are performing." "Our conditions and theirs are different. If we lose, we will lose face." "We definitely can't lose. Our program has a beginning and an end, and every one of them is exciting. They can't even schedule half of the show." "I hope so!" Huang Yihe always had some inexplicable worries. He felt that Chen Qi had a trump card, but he didn't know what it was. The Yongle Bell, the largest existing bronze bell in China, was cast during the Yongle period. The existing Dazhong Temple in the North Third Ring Road of Beijing. In the 1950s, Dazhong Temple became the second food factory in the capital, producing preserved fruits, sodas, biscuits, etc. In recent years, religious policies have gradually been restored, that is, monks can wear cassocks without having to write a party application.
But there are no monks in the Big Bell Temple. As for the food factory, it was simply renovated and turned into an ancient bell museum, which was opened to the public in 1985. Early this morning. Chen Qi was so busy that he still found time to come over and take Gong Xue and Zhang Yimou with him. It was not long before he entered the temple. He was not in the mood to walk in the snow to visit the ancient times. He just walked in crunching on the snow and broken ice. Under the guidance of the staff, he arrived at the last courtyard, where a large bell tower stood. There is a big bell hanging in the building, and there is a spiral staircase to go up. Zhang Yimou stood at the bottom, looked up at the black bronze clock, marveled, and then used his talent as a photographer to find the best shooting angle. Chen Qi and Gong Xue climbed up the stairs and arrived at the big bell. This bell is meters high, meters in diameter, and weighs tons. It feels very oppressive hanging there. Chen Qi touched the bronze bell and the hammer. The staff saw that he wanted to ring the bell and hurriedly said: "Don't use too much force. When the bell is struck lightly, it is round and deep; when struck hard, it is rich and loud. The sound can be transmitted as far as 90 miles and lasts for 2 minutes." "So awesome!" While Gong Xue was marveling, Chen Qi started to use the bar: "90 miles? That's 45 kilometers. It's only 45 kilometers from here to Changping. Are you sure they can hear it? There are still 2 minutes left, wow..." Before he could come out, Gong Xue kicked him and smiled at the embarrassed staff member: "Comrade, can we give him a light tap?" "Okay, okay!" Immediately, she pulled Chen Qi, and the two of them worked together to swing the battering hammer and bumped it gently twice. The sound was indeed mellow and clear, and it was very nice to hear. Chen Qi nodded and said to Zhang Yimou, who had already come up: "Old Zhang, how are you?" "How many of us should ring the bell?" "Six people!" "That's almost it. It's pretty easy to shoot." Chen Qi looked for four clocks. The Yongle Bell in the capital, the Jingyun Bell in Xi'an, the Zenghou Yi Chime in Wuhan, and the Hanshan Temple Bell in Suzhou can barely be considered geographically as southeast and northwest. Zeng Houyi's chimes were unearthed in 1978, and a song "The East Is Red" was played in August of that year. It was played again on National Day in 1979, and then in 1997 when Hong Kong returned to China, it could not be played casually, and it was only played with special approval from the central government. of. This era is different, many things are not so strict. And when the bell rings at midnight on the Spring Festival Gala, you don't have to ring the whole set of chimes, just a few will do. The three of them came out and got in the car. Gong Xue took out a small notebook and said like a confidential secretary: "More than a dozen young singers from all over the country have come one after another and have been arranged in the guesthouse. When can you come to see them?" "Hu Weili hasn't finished composing the music yet, so stay here first." "Several short films from studios in various places have also been sent, and Nansheng has also sent short films from Singapore and Malaysia. When will Fei Xiang come?" "At the end of the month with his mother." "Then should we shoot it on the spot?" Gong Xue suggested, and Zhang Yi also nodded. "Communicate with others, after all, it's a private matter." Chen Qi leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes slightly, and used the short time on the road to rest. He sorted out the content in his mind. If he drove at full speed, he should be able to finish it before the evaluation. The program is important, and the video is also important. The leaders must see both, so that the pattern and purpose of the evening party he created can come out, that is, "The people of China celebrate together, and the children of China are one family!" The Spring Festival is the most common symbol of the Chinese nation, and it must also exist as a symbol to output a lot of things. He went through it in his mind and felt a little relieved.
The van drove back to the Ministry of Culture. Chen Qi got off the car and was about to go to the small auditorium to watch the rehearsal. Dai Hanhan suddenly ran out of the building: "Teacher Chen! Teacher Chen! It's terrible! "You are not staying in Lechunfang, why did you run here?" "It's a disaster!" Dai Hanhan shouted: "Beijing Film Studio, a family of six from Beijing Film Studio moved into our building!" (No more.)
