Chapter 278. 278. A Difficult Task
Bian Wenbang got into the car and left without waiting for Xie Zhiming to hold the wedding ceremony. Although he didn't arrive at the wedding scene, he still paid a gift money of two yuan.

The two grew up together. They used to be best friends, and went to the countryside together. They experienced a lot of hardships together. They broke up because of a university quota.

After the breakup, the two had different encounters. One went to college, the other went back to work in the city, and now they are about to have their own families.

After two years of growth, the mentality and behavior of the two have undergone new changes. Although they are no longer friends, they are no longer enemies. See you later. Although it is impossible to meet again for a drink or two, we can still talk to each other calmly say hi.

Xie Zhiming used his wedding invitation to redefine his relationship with Bian Wenbang.

Yue Wenxuan attended Xie Zhiming's wedding and gave him a verbal blessing and the same gift of two yuan as Bian Wenbang.

His gift of two dollars also redefined the relationship between the two—they have been just friends since then.

The pace of time never stops, and before you know it, it will be the spring of the next year.

This spring, he has a lot of performance tasks. He just finished a performance of a large unit, and he went to Beijing urgently because of a phone call from Kyoto.

The person who called him was still Director Guo.

After Yue Wenxuan came to Beijing, just after he stayed in the guest house, Director Guo came to him in a hurry.

"Wenxuan, I have transferred you to Beijing this time because I have an important task to entrust to you." Upon meeting, Director Guo got straight to the point.

"What mission?"

"One thing, but broken down into two tasks.

After half a month, you will go to Hong Kong Island to perform with the visiting group. With your ability, I believe you will be able to complete the performance task very well. The leaders above are not worried about this.

This performance is very important, and the leaders put forward higher requirements. In addition to singing a few classic old songs, you also hope that you can sing a new song that is more international.

The task of creating new songs has been distributed to relevant units, and you are one of them.

I personally have great confidence in your creative ability, so you have a heavy burden on your shoulders. In addition to the performance during the visit, there is also an additional task of writing a new song before the visiting group leaves.

Originally, you only needed to accept the performance task, but now I have added a creative task to you. I have to apologize to you for this. "

When Director Guo said this, Yue Wenxuan certainly had no complaints in his heart.

This is Director Guo's job, and he has the right to make this arrangement.

Director Guo said this out of respect and importance to Yue Wenxuan.

Yue Wenxuan said: "I'm a young man. I'm not afraid of the heavy burden on my shoulders, but I'm afraid that I'm not capable enough to complete the task."

Director Guo said solemnly: "Although I have assigned the task of creating new songs to various units, I still believe in your creative ability.

If the task this time is to create a revolutionary song, the creators of these units have previous experience, so they are trustworthy.

But this time the task is to create a song that is biased toward internationalization, and my trust in them is not so high.

If the style of new songs wants to be in line with international standards, it cannot be bound by the original concept of creation. On this point, young people like you are more flexible in their thinking. "

In order for Yue Wenxuan to have a full understanding of this creative task, Director Guo specially explained to him the significance and role of this visit.

This is a visit that has been planned by a certain department for a long time. During the period when the delegation is stationed in Hong Kong Island, they will meet and communicate with groups from Southeast Asian countries.

It is precisely because of the importance of this visit that there are higher requirements for the performance repertoire in cultural exchanges.

In cultural exchanges, the Chinese repertoire is as nationalized and internationalized as possible.

In line with this principle, the repertoire for this cultural and artistic exchange has basically been determined by the * department.

After multiple reviews, the repertoires of opera and dance are all good, but the songs, even after careful selection, are still unsatisfactory.

That's why the leader issued a creative task, requiring the style of the song to be more international.

Now there is only half a month left before the departure of the visiting group. Not only is the creation of the song very difficult, but the time is also very tight, so the creation task this time is still very arduous.

After listening to Director Guo's narration, Yue Wenxuan had a deeper understanding of the significance of this visit.

"Director Guo, you trust me by entrusting such an important task to me. I can't guarantee that the task will be completed satisfactorily, but I will try my best." Yue Wenxuan replied solemnly.

Director Guo said understandingly: "Try as much as possible. I also know that artistic creation cannot be forced. When inspiration comes, it is easy to create a classic song; if there is no inspiration, even if the hair is all gray, it is useless. .”

After taking over this creative task, Yue Wenxuan didn't intend to be perfunctory, and planned to choose a suitable work from the future works.

If he wanted to choose a song that was more international and suitable for this era, Yue Wenxuan really had to think carefully.

After choosing and choosing, Yue Wenxuan felt that the song "Northern Country Spring" was quite suitable, so he planned to carry this work over in advance for business assignments.

In 500 years, after the song was released in Japan, it sold more than [-] million copies, and it was widely sung and circulated throughout Southeast Asia and Hawaii.

It's a classic, and it's still around decades later.

"Spring in the North Country" has a moving artistic conception, and the emotions it conveys are direct, high-spirited and confident.

The song also successfully combines tradition and modernity to develop unique aesthetic characteristics. The detailed descriptions of daily life scenes such as "cold clothes" and "drinking alcohol" have formed an emotional resonance for the general public.

This song can definitely meet the requirements of the leadership for internationalization.

The lyrics are close to life, as long as you don't deliberately pick the bones in the eggs, it is appropriate to take them out now.

Because this song is going to be transported to China, Yue Wenxuan made some modifications:
Slim white birches, long blue sky, slight south wind.

Malan flowers bloom on the hills, the spring of the northern country, ah, the spring of the northern country has come.

The city doesn't know the seasons change, and the seasons have changed. My mother is still sending packages and cold clothes to keep out the severe winter.

My hometown, my hometown, my hometown, when can I return to your arms.

The remaining snow melts, the stream murmurs, and the single-plank bridge crosses itself.

In the spring of the Northland, the young shoots of the larch, the spring of the Northland, ah, the spring of the Northland has come.

Although we have loved each other in our hearts, we have not yet revealed our true feelings.It has been five years since we parted, and my girl is at peace.

My hometown, my hometown, when can I return to your arms.

There are clusters of rhododendrons, the mist in the morning, and the waterwheel hut is quiet.

There are bursts of children's songs, spring in the north, ah, spring in the north has come.

My elder brother is exactly like the old father, a couple of taciturn people, have they ever been free to worry about drinking, and occasionally drink a few cups of each other.

My hometown, my hometown, when can I return to your arms.

After this modification, if you still want to find faults, there are still some things to discuss, especially the part about love.

But this period is not necessarily impossible to write about love, revolutionary love can still be written about, the key depends on the words used.

As long as it is a literary work, if you must misinterpret it, you must pick the bones in the egg, and you can always find the problem.

Yue Wenxuan dared to come up with this work, not because he felt that others could not find faults in it, but his confidence came from the influence of this work.

As long as Yue Wenxuan's song can become popular internationally like in his previous life, under the current environment, it will definitely be heavily promoted and praised, and there is no need to worry about someone picking a bone.

Now that a decision had been made, Yue Wenxuan submitted the song to Director Guo a week later.

Director Guo was very satisfied after reading the lyrics and music, and he was even more satisfied after hearing Yue Wenxuan sing again.

He submitted the song with confidence, but the subsequent review did not go as smoothly as he had imagined.

Considering the importance of cultural and artistic exchanges during this visit, the leaders above set up a special review team, and every performer and program performed with the group will go through extremely strict review.

For new works that have not been tested by the market, after the performance, no one knows what kind of reaction the audience will have.Therefore, the review of new works is naturally more stringent.

Because the style of this song is too novel, and the lyrics are also questionable, the first review did not pass.

Director Guo was very angry, and under his arguments, he won a chance for Yue Wenxuan to demonstrate on the spot.

After the song was submitted, Yue Wenxuan was ready to be beaten back.

He has already had a personal experience of this era, and he is very clear about how strict the review of literary and artistic works is in this era.

He will not naively think that this song will definitely pass the review just because it will be popular throughout Southeast Asia in the future and has been sung for decades.

There is no causal relationship between the two.

It is precisely because the style of this song is too novel that it will be very difficult to pass the review.

If the leader hadn't added an internationalization bias to the creative requirements, I'm afraid all the people involved in the review would not have passed it.

Now there are about half the people in favor and half against it, and it is already very rare to have half the support rate.

Under the leadership of Director Guo, Yue Wenxuan followed him into a hall.

There is a simple stage in the hall, and there are already seven or eight musicians on the stage.

Director Guo whispered: "When you perform on stage later, you must go all out.

Today, in addition to the five members of the review team, there are three leaders.

The approval of the three leaders is more important than the opinion of the review team. "

"I see."

Seeing Yue Wenxuan's usual calm expression, Director Guo's uneasy mood also calmed down.

Director Guo admired Yue Wenxuan's performance at this time.

Facing the three Daling Islands already in place, even he, a middle-aged man, was unavoidably nervous, but Yue Wenxuan was still able to maintain his usual calm demeanor. This kind of psychological quality was really too strong.

No wonder Yue Wenxuan was able to achieve such a high artistic achievement at such a young age. He is indeed not an ordinary person.

Yue Wenxuan walked onto the stage under the direction of Director Guo, and someone from the audit team below the stage said:
"You get ready first, and when you're ready, you can start your singing."

"I'm ready to start acting now."

After Yue Wenxuan signaled to the band members, the music started.

The prelude ended, and Yue Wenxuan's emotional singing began.

When he finished singing, there was no applause, but after a while, as one of the leaders began to applaud, the sparse applause finally became more and more dense, and gradually merged into a torrent.

After everyone applauded, one of the leaders said: "Everyone can talk about their opinions. I think this matter can be settled now, and there is no need to go back to a special meeting to study it."

Team leader Chen of the review team was the first to express his opinion: "Just listening to the applause just now, I think it can already express everyone's thoughts at this moment.

First of all, I have to do some self-criticism. After seeing the lyrics and music of this song the day before yesterday, I personally disagree with choosing this song to perform and communicate during the interview.

It's not that this song is bad, on the contrary, the style of this song is very novel, the lyrics are also very beautiful, and the inner feelings are also positive. Overall, it is a very good song.

But it is too avant-garde!
I feel a little risky to perform this song on such an important occasion.

But after listening to Comrade Yue Wenxuan's singing just now, I realized that I still took it for granted.

Literary and artistic works cannot be appreciated only on paper, and the effect can only be known after live performances.

It must be admitted that Comrade Yue Wenxuan's singing just now was very shocking. Listening to him sing, there is a kind of power surging in his heart.

I haven't heard such a touching song for a long time. This song can conquer me, everyone here today, and I believe it will conquer others during the performance exchange. "

Having said that, he paused for a moment, and finally stated his conclusion: "My suggestion is to pass!"

Several other members of the review team also expressed their opinions, and the conclusions were all passed.

After Yue Wenxuan's performance ended, the three leaders applauded enthusiastically, and there was a hint of excitement on their faces.

The members of the review team saw this kind of performance, so naturally they would not remain indifferent.

Moreover, Yue Wenxuan's live singing really touched all of them, this conclusion is also their true inner thoughts.
