Chapter 455
In order not to interrupt the wonderful performance of Murong Cheng (acted by the real character), Zhao Daquan did not point at Murong Cheng's main camera.

Instead, he aimed a telephoto camera beside him at the cigarette on the piano.

The blur effect of the telephoto lens is good. Against the blurred background, the green smoke on the cigarette is clearly visible, which is a bit quiet and peaceful.

After Murong Cheng was seated, he paused for a while, and then started playing.

The soft sound of the piano carries a touch of ambiguous warmth.

He didn't follow the music that Gao Shuang demonstrated to him.

Instead, he improvised a jazz piece imitating the style of the original song.

For Murong Cheng, who has ascended to the throne of song emperor with the piano, playing jazz is not difficult at all.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is easy to come by.

His hands are as dexterous as a fluttering butterfly, gently swipe across every black and white key.

From a distance, it doesn't look like playing a piano, but caressing, and the notes are like silk gliding over a young woman's body.

Even Gao Shuang couldn't help admiring, the old tree has many flowers, and the long vines are full of water!
Although this senior brother is usually a little serious, he is still very sullen in his heart.

If Murong Cheng, who was playing at the moment, knew what was going on in Gao Shuang's heart, he would probably spit out a mouthful of old blood and go away!

I don't know which puppy he played the piano in the way of? ! !
In the movie, an arrogant black jazz pianist named Jerry Roll brazenly claims that he is the one who invented jazz.

This makes it easy for Gao Shuang to find the prototype characters from the system database.

Jerry Roll Morton.

Morton was one of the first jazz pianists in the early 20th century. Although he has real material, he likes to exaggerate his contribution to jazz very much, so it often produces negative effects.

He even boasted that he invented jazz in 1902!

This lie left a very bad impression on music fans, which is also an important reason why he has been despised for a long time.

At the age of 12 he was playing the piano at meat restaurants in New Orleans.

From 1904 to 1917, he wandered in the south of the United States, touring piano performances, sometimes making some money with sideline jobs such as gambling, billiards, and pimping, and also worked as a swimming pool cleaner and a clown in a small musical.

From 1917 to 1922, he played on the west coast of the United States, and then developed greatly in Chicago.

Here is a little bit of common knowledge. In the beginning, jazz was not called "Jazz" but "Jass".

It comes from a hooligan saying "Jassing it up" in a red light drive!
Find out what it means, and stop driving...

Morton, a talented jazz musician born in Red Light Drive, likes well-dressed suits and luxurious jewelry just like the one portrayed in the movie.

Despite the high-profile clothes and attitude, you can't deny that he has unparalleled creative skills.

In the pursuit of free and casual jazz, he is a rare strict formalist.

His performance has a clear sense of paragraphs and is meticulous. He is able to coordinate the overall situation in cooperation with the band, allowing various instruments to play harmoniously together.

The most important thing is that in that era, if you want to be a good jazz musician, you also need to be able to tell jokes...

Therefore, in the movie, every time Jerry Rolle will have a well-polished gag and a ridiculous dialogue in the prelude before the prelude, accompanied by whistle or trumpet sound effects, this tradition has also been preserved by American talk shows.

So, black people who can't talk about stand-up shows aren't good jazz pianists.

The soft rhythm that Murong City is now imitating is the style of Morton's work when he first made his fortune in New Orleans' red-light district.

In his early years, he performed in a meat restaurant, and the upstairs was full of men and women who were full of ups and downs.

In that place, this soft music is the perfect catalyst, rippling between the beds without disturbing their passion.

Murong Cheng was playing that kind of music at the moment.

Although there is some grudge in my heart, the musicians at the level of Quhuang have a terrible ability to control music!

After bringing in the character design of the script, Murong Cheng can even say without shame that he is the best in this field! ! !

The performance resonated with many people present. Zhao Daquan, who manipulated several cameras, keenly captured the natural reactions of the surrounding actors with his lens.

Especially the mustache who played the role of the conductor of the band. He was so excited by the music that even his raised beard trembled rhythmically.

Unlike others, Gao Shuang cares more about his piano!
He was very worried that Murong Cheng would be too intoxicated to play and forget the time, and burn his precious piano to a scar...

However, when the smoke was about to reach the piano, Murong Cheng's performance just stopped!
The group performers playing the role of passengers spontaneously applauded Murongcheng's wonderful performance.

Amidst the warm applause, Murong Cheng held his head high, picked up the cigarette arrogantly, and raised it above his head!
The long cigarette still maintains its original form at the last moment of burning.

It looks trembling, as if breathing a little more will turn into flying ash.

But what is surprising is that such a fragile ash did not break due to the vibration of the strings!
Zhao Daquan took a complete picture of the burning process of the cigarette with the sub-camera, and he saw the thunder in the smallest details, and it was shocking without hearing the sound!

Holding a cigarette, Murong Cheng came up to Gao Shuang, and said condescendingly, "It's your turn, sailor."

Gao Shuang's expression was very strange.

To be honest, he experienced a lot of new things in Murong Cheng's performance.

At this moment, I haven't come back to my senses, and I am in the dazed stage of absorbing experience and summarizing experience.

If you don't pay attention to the few cameras set up around, everyone present will be in the scene!

And Gao Shuang is undoubtedly the one who is more involved in the play.

At the beginning, he was still using the ability given by the physical training manual to imitate the performance state of the original film 1900.

But after Murong Cheng started playing, he broke away from the category of forcibly restrained by skills.

It is to really experience the amazing performance of Murongcheng.

It has to be said that Murong Cheng's performance level has opened his eyes!

Even Gao Shuang, who has eaten the first-line experience books, has to be amazed.

Under the gaze of everyone, Gao Shuang walked slowly to the piano and sat down.

Wu Haoyao gave him a thumbs up, and softly shouted: "Come on."

Gao Shuang was pulled back to God by Wu Hao's sneaky look.

He couldn't help grinning slightly, and regained his acting state.

He sat in front of the piano, trying to adjust his emotions.

On the other hand, Murong Cheng arrogantly threw the cigarette into a glass of wine as required in the script.

The crackling sound of an open flame being dipped in water and the chaotic sound of Gao Shuang propping his chin with one hand and pressing his elbow on the keys of the piano complemented each other in the quiet banquet hall.

The pause didn't last long, Gao Shuang sat upright, raised his hand and played softly.

It's just that the music sounded, but it exceeded many people's expectations.

A well-known song "Silent Night" on the earth, the simple rhythm has caused a lot of discussion.

Murong Cheng's expression also became weird.

He has studied this plot many times.

Even because it was the first time he participated in the filming of a movie, the few pages of the script Gao Shuang gave him had been torn up by him.

It's a pity that there are not many descriptions in the script. He knows that there will be three songs between the two.

But he really didn't know that the piano piece labeled "Silent Night" actually had such a tune! ! !
Originally, he was looking forward to Gao Shuang's performance, but the huge gap between reality and expectation caused Murong Cheng to feel an unknown anger.

Brother!
Are you playing with fire? ! !

After Gao Shuang finished the song, the group of wild geese politely responded with moderate applause.

Compared to Murong Cheng's performance, Gao Shuang's performance is somewhat child's play!
Obviously, the "Silent Night" he played was not at the same level as Murong City's jazz music.

Gao Shuang was happy with the reaction of his surroundings, he showed his hands freely and freely!

Although the thoughts in everyone's hearts are far from the requirements of the script, everyone's actions miraculously always meet the requirements of the script.

This makes the whole performance surprisingly natural, without any trace of artificiality!
Even Zou Shan, who had been following the scene with a small camera, affirmed from the bottom of his heart that there was no performance at the scene today, it was all about emotion.

Gao Shuang made a please gesture to Murong Cheng when he left.

This made Murong Cheng even more angry!
what?

Said it was a wonderful piano duel in the movie, and tricked your senior brother to come to cheer you on.

As a result, you kid just use such a perfunctory attitude to fool things?
Are you still shaking after fooling around?

Is it tolerable or unbearable!

Murong Cheng felt that his forehead was about to smoke.

If it weren't for the fact that he is still filming and has some professionalism, he might point at Gao Shuang's nose and spray regardless of his image!

With a dark face, Murong Cheng quickly walked to the piano and played a relatively deep piece of music.

If I don't teach you a lesson, you won't know why I'm a senior brother! ! !

This round Murong Cheng did not intentionally imitate the piano theme given by Gao Shuang.

Instead, it uses a lot of top skills seriously.

On the basis of jazz, he strictly followed the most clear and upright music divisions, and really showed his solid basic skills.

Gao Shuang broke away from the state of acting, and listened mesmerized.

To the ears of ordinary people, Murong Cheng is just playing a nice piece of music.

But in the ears of Gao Shuang, who has already had an epiphany about jazz, Murong Cheng who is playing is clearly dismantling the category of jazz to show Gao Shuang the core!
It's a bit like when faced with his own nephew's failure to live up to expectations, he angrily scolded a child as unteachable, but when he turned his face, he demonstrated how to teach by precepts and deeds, and follow good advice.

After Gao Shuang realized this level, he felt that he didn't need to act at all, and his tears could already stay.

Senior brother is a good person!
Wu Hao, who was reminded by the people next to him and remembered that he still had an acting task, hurried into the frame of Gao Shuang.

He came behind Gao Shuang, looked at Gao Shuang who was shedding tears and asked anxiously, "What's the matter with you?"

The tone was a little surprised, but also a little dazed.

How much of it is acting, how much of the truth is really not clear.

Gao Shuang said: "It's so touching, I can't help but want to cry!"

Wu Hao also wanted to roll his eyes, but he didn't dare to make mistakes during the close-up, and hurriedly said: "All the crew will buy you to win, and I will pay for the whole year's salary. Don't cry, okay? Concentrate on playing the piano, okay?" it is good?"

Gao Shuang reined in his emotions for a while, and asked doubtfully according to the situation: "Can I suppress it too?"

Wu Hao said exaggeratedly: "No! If you buy yourself to win, you won't be able to play well!"

Gao Shuang pointed to Murong Cheng: "I want to buy him to win, he is a top player."

Gao Shuang said this sincerely.

Wu Hao said helplessly, "Are you crazy!"

Gao Shuang replied indifferently: "In this case, even if you lose, you can still make money."

That's all Wu Hao said, and he has nothing more to say.

According to the plot, at this time he felt that 1900 was probably hopeless.

Murong Cheng finished playing another piece of music, which drew even more enthusiastic applause from the audience.

He conceitedly greeted everyone, then walked aside, waiting for Gao Shuang, a "unteachable" junior, to play.

Gao Shuang sat down next to the piano again, feeling quite excited.

I closed my eyes and thought about it for a while, and silently adjusted my hand-eye coordination and physical ability to the best state.

After various epiphanies, the jazz skills that were not digested in time gradually became clear.

A few notes were played between the hands, but it was unexpected again.

He played the piece that Murong Cheng played just now!

After hearing this performance, the resentment in Murong Cheng's heart disappeared in an instant.

Then a feeling that made the body tremble filled the heart again.

Laymen listen to the excitement, while experts watch the doorway.

You must know that jazz is a very free music, with large improvisational passages.

There is another detail in the movie that echoes this point!
When trumpeter Conn was hired on board, the crew asked him, "What are you blowing?"

He replied: "I don't know!"

The crew laughed and said loudly: "I don't know what it is, it's Jazz!"

This also shows from the side that the biggest feature of jazz is everyone's improvisation!

Because it was improvised, no one would know what it was.

To put it bluntly, many jazz musicians may not know what notes they will play the next second before they play!
So when Murong Cheng realized that the impromptu performance he had just performed on the spot had been completely copied by Gao Shuang, not a single note was bad, his heart was full of galloping horses, he was constantly screaming, and he was very broken!
He had read the script and knew that Gao Shuang would imitate his performance.

But the imitation he understands is the imitation of style, just like the playing of the first piece of music he played, imitating the music style given by Gao Shuang, but not the music.

This kind of imitation is the most common creative method in jazz.

But what is Gao Shuang doing?
He's making a replica!

A re-enactment of the whole song with no bad notes? ! !

Is this something humans can do?

In fact, the performance of Murong Cheng just now was somewhat embarrassing for Gao Shuang.

Knowing that Gao Shuang wanted to "imitate" his playing style, he deliberately discarded the individuality, just completely dismantled the complicated jazz skills, and then re-kneaded them together in the most fragmented way.

Even if you listen to the complete song, you can't tell which style it is, and trying to imitate it is even more idiotic.

However, this deliberately embarrassing method breaks down the composition skills of jazz music too finely and delicately, so that Gao Shuang misunderstood that Murong Cheng was doing live teaching...

At this level, even if Murong Cheng is asked to perform the same performance again, he himself cannot guarantee that he can do it.

This difficulty is like letting you write down a string of thousands of random numbers by hand, and finally let you write it silently again.

Those who are not hypermemory patients can simply choose to lie flat and give up.

But Gao Shuang didn't analyze any style, nor did he think about any ideas to break the game.

It is unreasonable to completely reproduce the whole song in an extremely rude way!
Re-enact paragraph-by-paragraph, measure-by-measure, and even note-by-note! ! !

There was no deviation or stagnation in the whole performance process, and it was as smooth as the perfect mirror image of Murong City.

If it wasn't for the fact that the person sitting there was indeed Gao Shuang, everyone would have suspected that there was a reversion in this time and space...

this kid...

What a fairy! ?
