The Price of a Superstar [Rebirth]

Chapter 16 Instinctive Memory

The sun is shining today, just like Gong Ao's heart.

Someone shared the secret for Gong Ao, and the feeling of depression in her heart was instantly reduced a lot.Maybe it also includes the fact that Mu Chang said he wanted to help himself, and became friends with James.

While filming the MV, Gong Ao drank rose tea, and the lingering fragrance stained some of Gong Ao's body, turning it into a light and seductive body fragrance.

In the past, Gong Ao didn't drink scented tea when he was working. In fact, sometimes he was so busy that he couldn't even drink water.The treatment is different now, there are two assistants running back and forth to make tea for themselves, shade the sun, and busy around.This kind of work is stressful but not tiring.

"Brother Yu, the director arranged for the MV plot to cancel the hanging wire, and even the dancing, so I really take care of you. For a person as persistent as the director, it's really not easy to compromise for the first time."

Xiao Ming pinched Gong Ao's shoulders. Gong Ao had declined before, but Xiao Ming said seriously that it is the job of an assistant to pinch the boss's shoulders.

"That's because I dragged him down." Gong Ao looked at the director who was watching the replay in the distance.

"Brother Yu, you've worked hard enough. If you didn't pursue the accident during filming this time, you are being tolerant to the staff on the scene." Xiao Ming squeezed his shoulders and said, "Brother Yu, you've lost a lot of weight."

"Be thinner and look better on camera." Gong Ao smiled slightly.

There is also a song MV that is about to be filmed, and after the filming is finished, I will go abroad to take a batch of promotional photos. I wonder if I can ask for leave for the company at this time. It was Gu Xin's first cooperation, and Gong Ao didn't want anything to happen.

"Brother Yu, the company has never signed a contract with an online singer before, so I don't know how it would sign him now." Xiao Ming sat down with a worried tone.

"Maybe he's popular because the company thinks he has potential."

"Hey... I heard something, and I don't know whether I should tell you." Xiao Ming turned around and lowered his voice.

"what's up?"

"They said that the company signed your advertiser's request and let Xu Yizhi endorse with you at the same time. Although your endorsement fee will not be reduced, isn't this clear that the company wants to use your credit to promote him?"

"There's no way around this. As an artist of the company, of course you have to obey the company." Gong Ao didn't look flustered.

Gong Ao knew that the company was worried about her creative ability, and was actively looking for a way out.Even if the company no longer focuses on cultivation, this is not a good time to change jobs. Once the outside world knows the reason for the job-hopping, no company will be willing to accept it.

I have to find a way to maintain my popularity, and then let the company not give up on me...

Every day when I got home, Gong Ao didn't have time to eat, so I immediately went to the music room to try to create.

The composition teacher told Gong Ao that creation needs inspiration, and only when there is inspiration can the creativity flow continuously.Of course, inspiration is not enough, and a lot of basic skills are needed.To be able to skillfully play world famous music, the basic skills will come naturally.

In addition to playing piano music CDs in the car, Gong Ao would hurry up and practice as soon as he got home. He hoped that he could reach that level sooner.

Gong Ao found that although he worked hard enough, the speed of improvement in playing skills such as rhythm, accent, and staccato was obviously different from that of ordinary people.It must be because Xia Yu's body still has memories of the piano.

Therefore, high-intensity practice helps to restore the memory of playing.

Even the piano teacher said that Xia Yu seemed to have recovered some of his memories. In just ten days of practice, ordinary people would not achieve such a leap.

As long as there is no notice, Gong Ao will definitely allow himself to sleep only 3,4 or [-] hours a day. Although he is very tired, the speed of progress in playing the piano makes him feel very worthwhile. Maybe he will be able to create like Xia Yu in a short time up.

Gong Ao will not be idle during some spare time. He finds a large number of books related to acting skills to read, and then takes the script to deliberate and rehearse.He hopes that he can gain a firm foothold in the acting world in the future.

If you only rely on Xia Yu's reputation for filming, you won't be able to play for long.Gong Ao wants to have superb acting skills, at least surpass the acting skills of the actors.

It's just that there is no time to study performances systematically, Gong Ao first needs to write songs to tide himself over.

After filming the MV and returning to the company, Gong Ao just plunged into the book, page after page of boring content made Gong Ao, who didn't get enough rest, a little sleepy.

Boom boom boom.The knock on the door suddenly woke up Gong Ao who seemed to be falling asleep.

"Come in." Gong Ao's tired voice.

Mu Chang closed the door, went to Gong Ao's desk and sat down, scanning the pile of books on Gong Ao's desk.There are music theory, vocal music, piano scores, singing skills, and scripts, as well as a crash book on performance skills that I'm reading right now.

"Excuse me, what's the matter, senior?" Gong Ao rubbed his tired eyes and cheered up.

"Can't you not torment yourself? Look at your recent appearance, how much you've lost weight." Mu Chang's tone seemed distressed.

"Thank you senior for your concern. You know, the company has high demands on me now, and I haven't written a song yet."

"But what you are watching now is a performance!" Mu Chang retorted.

In fact, he has read all the books on the table, but Gong Ao didn't want to explain. "You know why I do it."

"The company—now it seems that it is going to train another creative newcomer. Do you understand this concept, which means that all resources in the future may be divided by half, and maybe more. I think you should first I’ll talk about it when my job is stable.”

"But I can't write a song." Gong Ao brushed the broken hair in front of his eyes with his hands, and smiled helplessly, "I practiced the piano very hard, cleared my mind and sat in front of the piano at the quietest time at night, but Still can't write it."

Mu Chang could understand how difficult it was to create, so he compromised and said, "Well, I'll help you buy the copyright of a few songs, and we'll get through this difficulty first."

"No need, isn't there still a few months left? I don't want to use Xia Yu's body to do such a thing. If he finds out, he will feel ashamed." Gong Ao stubbornly refused.

"Well, I won't force you. But I hope you don't make fun of your health, otherwise you won't have much energy to take care of whether it's writing songs or filming." Mu Chang got up and left.

Gong Ao supported his heavy head with both hands, as if this would relieve some pressure.

Mu Chang's concern made Gong Ao feel more at ease.Although Gong Ao very much refused to be greedy for Mu Chang's concern, he still accepted all of them very well.

Gong Ao called James, and he quickly answered, "James, are you busy now?"

"Now I'm shooting exteriors and just took a break."

"You also often write songs, can you tell me how to write songs, and under what circumstances do you usually compose?"

"When I think about it, I usually take some of my liking for Xia Yu, then make up some words and add music to it. You must think about those sweet things in your heart. Although he is cold to me, there is When I think about it, I still think he is cute."

"Okay, I'll go back and try." Gong Ao hung up the phone, feeling hopeless in his heart.

It turns out that you have to imagine something and put your emotions into it, so that you will have the inspiration for creation.After get off work, Gong Ao locked himself in the music room.

The piano tinkles, and sometimes writes and draws on paper.In the end, Gong Ao looked at the written paper full of notes and showed a satisfied smile.

There is an impassioned and inspiring feeling to play.The fast-paced notes are long and continuous. If it becomes a song, it may take a lot of lung capacity to sing it in one breath.

After revising it a few times and popping it out again, the piece suddenly became much smoother.It's really incredible that Gong Ao's first piece of music was actually made.It seems that what James said is correct. When creating, you must first have strong emotions in your heart.

Gong Ao envisioned his own future - to become a singer-songwriter like Xia Yu in the future, to make a lot of movies and TV shows, and to have Gu Xin and Liu Ran who hurt him live in prison.It is under the catalysis of such thoughts and emotions that Gong Ao has creative inspiration, and has a continuous feeling.

It may also be because Xia Yu's own creative ability has been triggered again. It seems that if you try more, you will really make great progress. Xia Yu, thank you!

I once heard that there was a famous singer-songwriter who wrote 50 songs within a week.If Gong Ao worked harder to maximize Xia Yu's creative potential, then within a few months, it should be no problem to write the remaining 6 songs of this album.

Taking advantage of the inspiration, Gong Ao wanted to try again. James said that when you have a feeling, you can't let the inspiration disappear, you must grasp that feeling.

Gong Ao kept playing, writing and drawing, but he didn't expect the alarm clock on his mobile phone to ring suddenly, and it was already dawn.Because of the creative relationship, I stayed up all night.At this moment, Gong Ao began to understand Xia Yu's passion for music.

Gong Ao sorted out the 8 songs that had been written, brought them back to the company and handed them over to Director Hong.

There is no other work arrangement for today, Gong Ao still continues to attend class.Take the time to learn acting in the gap between classes.

James came in and sat in front of Gong Ao, but he didn't even notice.

"The door wasn't closed, I just walked in." James said with a smile.

Gong Ao got up and handed James a bottle of water, "Thank you for helping me yesterday."

"Why do you look like you're not in good shape? Didn't you rest?" James has always been very observant of Xia Yu or Xia Yu's body.

"Yes, but yesterday I created 8 songs, and I have handed them over to the company." Gong Ao's smile was full of a slightly tired face.

"Really, that's great. I knew that the new guy from the company couldn't replace you. No one is better than Xia Yu!"

Gong Ao smiled and said nothing.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot for a while." James covered his mouth and looked at Gong Ao apologetically.

"He is very powerful in the first place, it's not wrong for you to praise him like that." Gong Ao smiled reassuringly.

"No, I didn't mean to regard you as him." James' eyes were full of encouragement, "You are also very good, come on!"
