Chapter 248: Follow the Procedure or Not?
"Luoluo, you are back~~"
As soon as she got home, Wen Xia hugged her with a pitiful look in her eyes, "I've been eating takeout every day since you're gone, and I'm almost throwing up."
Luo Quan couldn't laugh or cry: "Can't you learn to cook by yourself?"
Wen Xia said aggrievedly: "If I could learn it, I would have learned it long ago."
Luo Quan touched Wen Xia's head: "Just wait, I'll give you some delicious food tonight."
"By the way, since I've been away for the past few days, there was no problem during the recording of the show, right?"
"It's just one episode that wasn't recorded, so it doesn't have much impact. Now "Chuang Shao" has also progressed to the later stage. Except for me and Jin Zihao, the other instructors don't have many scenes."
"It's okay." Luo Quan nodded.
"By the way, Luoluo, I was watching the news before and heard that you seemed to have failed the audition. Is this true?"
Luo Quan said with a smile: "It was a failure at the time, but later the director couldn't find a better candidate, so he had to come back to me."
Wen Xia was overjoyed: "That's a good thing. The movie "Lord of the Rings" is a big production. If it sells well at the box office, you can use it to enter Hollywood!"
Luo Quan chuckled: "It depends on luck. It's hard to say whether it will be popular... By the way, how are you doing in your review? The college entrance examination is in more than half a month."
"Do I still need to worry? I've almost finished my review. I've done several sets of Yuzhou mock test papers. Not counting Chinese, my score is basically around 510."
"Okay!" Luo Quan's eyes lit up, "Add Chinese language and we can stay on track!"
"Actually, such a high score is of no use to me. As a star, I only need enough points to go to an art university. Such high scores are just a hype gimmick for the company."
"After all, it's the college entrance examination." Luo Quan said with great emotion. After living two lifetimes, she had missed the most important exam in the lives of most Chinese young people.
It's not that there are no shortcomings in life, but she has never experienced it, so she is very curious.
But for the two of them now, the college entrance examination has become just a tool for going through the motions. They no longer need to rely on the college entrance examination as a tool for upward advancement in their lives.
Dragging his suitcase back to the room, Luo Quan finally lay back in his warm little nest.
Whether it is a presidential suite or a room in a castle, no matter how luxurious it is, it is not as comfortable as your own room.
Luo Quan lay on the bed, opened his mouth and stretched slightly.
Not sure if it was because he walked too much, Luo Quan felt some pain in his ankle again.
When I had a sprained foot before, I didn't even need to spray any medicine, I just stomped it and it was healed. Now my body is indeed much weaker.
He took out Yunnan Baiyao and sprayed it again. Luo Quan quickly felt better.
Just after I finished my work, my phone rang.
"Hello, Mr. Zhou." Luo Quan turned on the hands-free phone.
"Luo Quan, have you returned to China?" Zhou Yangwen's voice sounded a little anxious.
"I just came back and took a flight for several hours."
"I heard that you composed another piece of music in London, or was it a piano piece?"
"That's what happened." Luo Quanxin said that the news spread too quickly. From what I heard, Huaxia already knew about it when she was still on the plane.
"You don't seem to care at all. Music forums at home and abroad are blowing up now. You don't even realize what kind of music you have created!"
Luo Quan didn't know what to do now. Of course she knew what kind of music it was, but she didn't expect that the news would spread so quickly, and it would reach this point in about ten hours.
"Sorry, I'm a little excited." Zhou Yangwen also realized his gaffe and said seriously: "First apply for copyright for this song, and we will slowly negotiate the rest of the contract."
This reminded Luo Quan that if Zhou Yangwen hadn't reminded him, he would have forgotten the most important part.
Luo Quan quickly took a photo of the staff score of "Canon" and sent it to Zhou Yangwen.
About fifteen minutes later, Zhou Yangwen sent a message asking Luo Quan: "There are many canons, what are you going to call this one?"
Luo Quan thought for a while and said, "Let's call it "Luo Quan's Canon"."
Classical music names are basically like this. Here we just change the prefix of the author to make it more recognizable.
Zhou Yangwen laughed: "I am a person who often listens to classical music. I never thought that one day, we Chinese people would be able to sign the music."
"Maybe there will be more in the future." Luo Quan smiled slightly.
"There will definitely be, I believe you have such ability!" Zhou Yangwen had no doubt about this.
After expressing his feelings, the topic returned to reality and started talking about money.
"For this song, I will only purchase the exclusive rights to distribute it in China. What do you think of the price of 10 million?"
The price was quite high, but Luo Quan was not greedy and readily agreed.
"Mr. Zhou, as usual, 20% of the licensing fee and song income share will be donated to poor areas."
This is also a condition that will be attached to a series of contracts Luo Quan signed after returning to China. Of course, this condition is only for her, and Zhou Yangwen is just taking the exam on her behalf.
The ratio of 20% does not seem like much, but it depends on the base of the amount.
The contracts Luo Quan has signed now are basically more than 10 million, plus the sales revenue of so many albums, the donations accumulated now have reached a very considerable figure.
"Are these things still kept secret?" Zhou Yangwen pursed his lips and asked in a deep voice.
Luo Quan smiled: "If you have anything to say, it won't be too late to donate a small goal later."
Hearing Luo Quan's joke, Zhou Yangwen also smiled: "There are not many stars like you in the entertainment industry today."
"Mr. Zhou, please stop flattering me. You know the conditions of my family well. There is no shortage of money, and the income is easy to come by. Donating some is just for psychological comfort. It is not as noble as you think."
Zhou Yangwen said in a serious tone: "A gentleman's deeds have no regard for his heart. If you really donate a small goal, you will touch the top ten people in China by the end of the year!"
"I'm still moved by China. I'll be happy if I can move the black people who criticize me on the Internet." Luo Quan smiled self-deprecatingly, "Okay, let's leave it like this for now. You can just send me the contract later. .”
"OK."
Although she doesn't particularly value these reputations, if she really has the opportunity to be on CCTV and get this honor, her grandparents in their hometown in Yuzhou will probably be proud of themselves.
Luo Quan couldn't help but think about it again.
However, based on the sales of several of her albums in China, if she wants to donate a small amount based on her share of the revenue, she may have to wait two or three years. It would be better for her to pay for it herself.
After smiling, I gave up.
I opened Weibo on my phone and looked at the hot searches. I haven’t seen any news about “Canon” yet. Neither does Station B.
I don’t know where Mr. Zhou got the news.
When he came to Zhihu, Luo Quan now knew the source of the news. The number one on the Zhihu popularity list was:
"How do you evaluate the "Canon" played by Luo Quan?"
The number of discussions has exceeded 30 million, and it is still growing rapidly by tens of thousands every time it is pulled down to refresh.
It is indeed a gathering place for the young bourgeoisie in China, and it is really quick to accept news in this regard.
Luo Quan looked through the answers, and without exception, they were all compliments.
"I'm in the UK, so I didn't just get off the plane. I have been living in London for many years. I had noticed the news about Luo Quan when I read the Times earlier.
It said that at the birthday party of a British real estate tycoon, she composed a piano piece in just a few minutes and then amazed all the guests present.
Newspapers praised this piece of music to the point of being extremely disgusting, even comparing it to those musicians in Europe hundreds of years ago.
At first I thought it was a bit outrageous, and subconsciously I thought it was probably the real estate tycoon who was spending money to create a buzz for his granddaughter.
But out of curiosity, I went to the BBC official website to search for related videos.
Although the picture quality is not clear, Luo Quan's beauty makes up for this flaw. Just like me, even if I was filled with righteous indignation before, I suddenly feel that spending money to build a reputation for such an angelic girl , it’s not a big deal, let alone her own granddaughter?
But after I listened to the music composed by Luo Quan, I found that my previous self was really too superficial.
First of all, I have read the staff, and it is indeed classical music. It is a "Canon" composed in an extremely rigorous format. There is nothing to say about this.
In addition, its melody is so beautiful that editors from The Times, The Guardian, and The New York Times all call it one of the most beautiful pieces of music in the world, just like it The same creator!
This is a piece of music that does not require any musical appreciation to appreciate its beautiful notes.
It has a magical power, is sweet and gentle, but has a little sadness hidden in its depth.
I listened to it only once and couldn't put it down. As I write this answer, the speakers in the room are still playing it.
In the past, some people would always question Luo Quan's talent.
But now, I feel that Luo Quan's talent no longer needs any further proof. If you have the ability, go to foreign newspapers and read what foreigners say about Luo Quan. "
“Although no one invited me, I still came uninvited.
I was about to write an answer when I realized that the guy in front of me had already said everything I wanted to say.
All I have to say is that this song is a treasure that deserves to be remembered forever.
When you and I are all turned into dust, and the tombstones are forgotten in some unknown corner, or moved away due to demolition, when your and my children have repeated this fate, our last traces in this world will be reflected in history. disappeared in the big waves.
But Luo Quan won’t!
Her name and deeds will be the same as all the characters whose names are recorded in history books, leaving behind proof of her existence.
Hundreds of years from now, when people mention her, they will admire and respect her in the same way that we now mention those musicians from hundreds of years ago. If they see photos of her when she was young, they might be like us and be unable to help themselves. I have a deep admiration for her.
Some people will definitely say that my evaluation is too exaggerated. It either means that you are more stupid than an ox in terms of music, or that you are jealous of her. There is no other reason.
If these people still cannot look at Luo Quan’s achievements objectively, I would like to borrow a poem from Du Zimei to send to these people: Your body and name will be destroyed, but the eternal flow of rivers will not be destroyed! "
Luo Quan felt goosebumps all over his body when he saw this.
This comment was too insensitive to her, but thinking about it carefully, it seems that it is not impossible.
But at her current age, even if she was really qualified to receive such an evaluation, she couldn't ask for it, or she didn't dare to ask for it.
There is no way, China can have geniuses, but they have not yet been able to outdo countless geniuses who are veterans in the industry.
It is said that the culture of the younger generation in Korea and Japan is extremely popular, which is dregs and destroys the body and mind of young people. How can it be the same in China?
It's just not as extreme as those two countries, but talking about seniority is still an indispensable thing. Luo Quan suffers because she is too young. If she grows up to ten years, no matter what honors she carries, she will probably not There is so much criticism now.
Although this answer made her feel comfortable physically and mentally, Luo Quan immediately commented with a large number: "Thank you for your recognition of me, but I still dare not live up to such a high evaluation.
In the future, I will work harder to create music and strive to make myself truly worthy of such an evaluation. "
Netizens who were paying attention to the answers saw that it was Luo Quan who commented in person and immediately responded. The first was the author of this answer:
"I actually met you in person. I think being too modest is actually a sign of pride. Your achievements are already very high. Accept it calmly. As for the criticism from the outside world, don't care too much."
"If you write a few more songs like this, you will no longer be a singer. You should be called a contemporary Mozart."
"Luo Quan is indispensable for the music created by Chinese people to reach the world. Maybe he will be a grandmaster-level figure in a few decades."
"I don't even know how to praise you. You are the perfect combination of talent and good looks."
………………
Seeing the support from netizens, Luo Quan smiled and typed: "I have given the domestic copyright of "Canon" to Penguin Music. It will be online soon. If you like it, you can buy a song and listen to it. , just think of it as supporting China’s classical music career.”
When it comes to money, the style of painting suddenly changes:
"It's impossible to spend money. It's impossible to spend money in this life. You can only maintain your life through free prostitution."
"My mouth is full of congratulations, but my heart is full of free whoring."
"It's simply a human reality. When it comes to spending money, the comments immediately drop by half."
"Although I will definitely support the genuine version, prostitution for free is really fun."
"This time I won't go to whoring for nothing. Such a nice song is worth as long as it doesn't cost more than ten yuan!"
"So in your mind, this song is only worth ten yuan?"
"I'll pay eleven yuan!"
……………………
Seeing this scene, Luo Quan shook his head helplessly and smiled.
