Chapter 1259: Return

"You say, you say, but I am absolutely unambiguous about what can be done. If it can't be done, I will ask the leader." What about them?

"The most critical problem now is that young people don't like to listen to folk music, so we have to find a way to attract young people to the concert hall. From this perspective, we can consider introducing some practices in the field of pop music." Shen Long said, No matter how superb Fang Jinlong and Du Cong's playing skills are, they have to be experienced music fans to understand, and most young people are dumbfounded.

If you put a dozen or so young and beautiful girls, it will be different. Who doesn't like beauties? After listening to it for a few times, you can slowly taste the taste of folk music. When Shen Long mentioned the idea of ​​the Twelve Girls Band, the head of the group couldn't react for a while, and asked hesitantly, "Is this possible?"

"Do you still remember the performance of "Red Detachment of Women"?" Shen Long told the story of Zhong Yuemin and the others who went to see "Red Detachment of Women". Tickets, there are plenty of fights outside the ticket window!"

"Can those people really understand ballet? I don't think so?" Zhong Yuemin may understand a little bit, but Li Kuiyong and the little bastard definitely don't. "Why did they go? Apart from the lack of cultural and entertainment activities at that time, it was for I went to see the girl! But this experience has become an unforgettable memory in their youth. If they have the conditions in the future, if there is a ballet performance again, some people in this group will definitely buy tickets to see it, and so will the Twelve Girls Orchestra Same reason."

I don't know whether I really believed Shen Long's words, or there was really no other way, the leader gritted his teeth and agreed, "Then how should I cooperate here?"

"Let's cooperate to register a new company. You use your distribution channels, practice venues, and recording equipment to invest in shares. I will contribute funds and help you open overseas channels." Twelve Girls Band actually became popular in Japan first. After that, they turned to the domestic market. Now that the domestic economy is not developed enough, this is the only way to go at first.

"Then I selected a group of suitable candidates in the troupe and the Conservatory of Music, conducted intensive training, and asked image designers from Japan, Hong Kong and Taiwan to design images for them." Well, they have outstanding temperament. They have combined the dual identities of folk music performers and idols at the same time. A bad image is not acceptable.

Then Shen Long talked about how to promote it and how to hype it, the head of the group was taken aback for a while. Although he didn't understand these things, he vaguely felt that maybe it was really feasible to do so?

So he went back to report immediately, and tried his best to get it approved. Soon the framework of the new company was set up. At this time, the Conservatory of Music was also in session. It was the well-known teacher Wang Qiming who was recruiting, and young people from the Conservatory of Music and the National Orchestra rushed to sign up.

There are indeed a lot of talents in these two places, and the girls who practice music all the year round have a unique temperament. It is not difficult to find candidates with excellent playing skills and a good image. Shen Long quickly found No. 20 People, carry out special training for them, so that the final twelve people can be selected from this group of people.

What made these selected candidates curious was that after entering the new company, Shen Long did not start special training on their playing skills immediately, but found some people to help them design their personal images, and at the same time taught them various etiquette and conversation The knowledge in this field made them a little confused.

But they quickly understood Shen Long's intentions. After the first round of training, when they wore the company's custom-made clothes and returned to the orchestra, school, and home,

People who are familiar with it are stunned, isn't this change too big? It's only been a month, and their dress, speech and behavior have changed drastically.

After experiencing the benefits, these girls studied harder. After waiting for more than half a year, Shen Long's first album for them was successfully completed, and they began to perform publicly.

As soon as this group with a very different style from the previous bands appeared on the stage, it shocked the capital. Young people all over the capital were dazzled by these fairy-like girls. Just looking at the posters on the wall, they rushed to buy tickets to enter the stage, and then Many people are quickly intoxicated by their image and temperament.

Then Shen Long used his relationship with Toei Corporation to send their album to Japan, which was quickly recognized by Japanese music fans, and set a record of selling 10,000 copies on the first day, breaking through the million mark within two months. and was invited to participate in the most important TV program "Red and White Songs Club" in Japan every year.

Since then, the Twelve Girls Band has become the treasure of the Conservatory of Music and the National Orchestra. In a few years, several girls with different styles will join in, occupying the throne of the most commercially valuable ethnic orchestra in China for a long time. The unit and Shen Long's company have brought huge profits.

More importantly, it has cultivated batch after batch of folk music lovers. After the economy gradually improves, the attendance rate of folk orchestras in various places has increased a lot.

In recent years, Shen Long has not only been busy with this matter, he has also cooperated with the film and television industry, making soundtracks and composing theme songs for some big productions. Among them, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", which he cooperated with Ang Lee, once again helped him win Down the Oscars.

It also cooperates with the Armed Police Men's Choir to sing many popular ancient poems to music; cooperates with the national orchestra and the country's top singing artists to put "The Book of Songs" and "Chu Songs" on the stage, and recreates many ancient instruments such as chime bells. Appearing in front of people, let the audience re-experience what it feels like to be Huang Zhong Dalu.

Cooperated with the TV station to launch the "Chinese Music Classic" program, using the situation of variety shows to attract more young people to become lovers of traditional music, and launched many outstanding traditional music groups one after another.

Through Shen Long's hard work, over the past ten years, the situation of Chinese traditional music has been much better than in the original history, at least in China, it has been comparable to Western classical music.

In the end, Shen Long participated in the cultural performance of the 2008 Olympic Games, created promotional tracks for the Olympic Games, and planned the performances for the opening ceremony, allowing audiences all over the world to immerse themselves in the beauty of traditional Chinese music.

On the day of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, Shen Long, who was enjoying the performance in the auditorium, finally heard the prompt sound of the return of the mission. Wang Qiming was finally satisfied with reaching this level.
