Chapter 57: Understand it and leave
Tianle’s event was very grand.
Hall 1 of the Bauhinia Cinemas is often used for this type of activity and has a total of 370 seats.
Although it is much smaller than the 600-seat screening room of Huazhong University of Science and Technology Film and Technology Museum and the 2,000-seat screening room of Northeast Golden Palm.
However, those two are not regular cinemas, and Hall No. 1 of Jinling Road of Bauhinia Cinema Chain is one of the largest regular screening halls in the country.
There were a lot of people at the scene and the place was full.
The first three rows are media, self-media, film critics, and independent film critics.
Behind them are the audience and some stars who came to show their support.
On the stage, four hosts from Shanghai TV were hosting the show with all their efforts.
When An Lan came on stage, there were roaring screams from the audience.
The screams may be louder than the speakers in the cinema.
"Today is the premiere of "Childhood", the title song from my new album "This Is Love", which Han Zhou wrote the lyrics and arranged for me."
"ah!!!!"
The audience went crazy and screamed wildly.
Only Han Zhou rolled his eyes.
Because when Han Zhou heard the words "This is love", a sentence came out of his mind uncontrollably.
"Love your mom selling fried dough twists~"
Han Zhou made up his mind to ask An Lan to change the name of the album.
"In the banyan tree beside the pond, cicadas are calling out for summer.
There are only butterflies resting on the swings at the playground.
The teacher's chalk on the blackboard is still chirping and writing non-stop
A childhood of waiting for the end of get out of class, waiting for the end of school, waiting for games..."
Some of the stars who came to support the show in the front row took a deep breath.
A classic campus song was born.
In the next ten or twenty years, this song will continue to be played on campus.
The cultural and arts committee members kept coming on stage to teach the students to sing this song.
It keeps ringing before every class.
At the scene, fans looked at An Lan, their eyes filled with appreciation for beautiful jade.
But there is a slight difference.
It's not the kind of look you get when you pick up a piece of ordinary jade in a shopping mall and look at the price.
Instead, I was shocked and delighted to see the five-color Han jade in the museum.
There is also a hint of admiration.
I stay away from the nine-point ones, for fear that I will have to pay for damages, and I still cannot afford the compensation even if I sell all my belongings.
An Lan's charm is too strong.
If they weren't afraid of disturbing such a beautiful voice, the screams would have overturned the entire cinema.
"Looking forward to the holidays, looking forward to tomorrow,
Looking forward to growing up, oh
Day after day, year after year,
Looking forward to growing up in childhood~"
When the song ended, the fans cheered and screamed wildly.
The media is also writing furiously.
Although I came here mainly to watch the movie, after this song came out, I had a lot more to write about.
It also makes people look forward to how the little queen will perform in her first film appearance.
The host of Shanghai TV came on stage and asked: "Is An Lan's song good?"
"Good! Listen!!!" There was a scream at the scene.
Host: "Haha, then we should look forward to An Lan's performance in the movie."
"Next, please ask Goddess An Lan to take a rest. Let us invite the director, screenwriter and male lead of this film, Han Zhou, to the stage!"
When Han Zhou came on stage, there were also quite a few screams from the audience.
As two companies that debuted at the same time and developed almost in a tied manner, their fan bases somewhat overlap.
Fans of Han Zhou may not be able to buy tickets.
But many of Han Zhou and An Lan’s common fans bought this ticket.
Han Zhou came on stage, and the host smiled: "Director Han, nice to meet you."
Han Zhou smiled.
The host turned around with a smile on his face and said, "After the female lead sings today, the male lead will also sing. Are you all happy?"
"oh!!!!"
After the crowd quieted down, Han Zhou picked up the microphone and said in a very serious tone: "It's too early for you to be happy."
The scene fell into silence for a moment.
Afterwards, many fans burst into laughter: “Hahaha!”
This is Han Zhou. Can he be called Han Zhou if there isn’t something wrong with him?
The host also laughed: "Then let's give the stage to Han Zhou, and sing "Under the Sea"!"
Han Zhou waved his hand, signaling not to rush to play the music, and then raised the microphone: "Please listen carefully to this song, it's not long."
"Please don't make any noise during the process. If anyone makes any noise, I will go into your bed and squat on you at night."
"ah!!!"
The fans screamed.
Han Zhou then signaled to play the music.
Han Zhou started speaking as soon as the music started.
"The scattered moonlight passed through the clouds
Hiding from the crowd
The scales of the sea
Waves wet white skirt
Trying to push you back…”
Han Zhou's voice was clear and not low.
But anyone who heard this would feel depressed.
Han Zhou continued singing with an expressionless face.
"You like the salty smell of the sea breeze
Walking on wet gravel
You said people's ashes should be scattered at sea
You asked me where I would go after I died.
Does anyone love you?
Can the world no longer abandon you~"
The reason why Han Zhou decided to sing "Under the Sea" at the beginning was because of some behaviors of Leziren fans, which made him feel a little uneasy.
Han Zhou decided to sing the song "Under the Sea" for a purpose.
The version Han Zhou chose is the one minute and forty-four second version.
The song "Under the Sea" is a rare song that has more than three versions and more than 100,000 reviews on music software.
Among them, the two original versions received more than 300,000 comments.
why?
Because the first version, which is the one minute and forty-four second version, is too depressing.
Therefore, the original singer tried to change the song to be less depressing and more to draw the attention of ordinary people to the depression group, rather than harming those with depression.
After that, Phoenix band released the third version, changing the style of the song from depressing to healing.
The key words of the original song were "Will the world no longer abandon you?" which was changed to "Will the world no longer, always putting on a smiling face to indifferent people, people on the shore all have indifference on their faces, there is no attachment to the world, everything is gone like smoke."
This change is to remind the audience to be kinder.
Han Zhou on the stage continued to sing:
"Too late, too late
You laughed and cried
Too late, too late
Your shaking arms
Too late, too late
No one rescued you."
The scene was completely silent, and many people felt very upset.
It's a very clear sound, a very high pitch, and a very melodious song. How could this happen?
In this version, Han Zhou has two voice lines, one is a high-pitched voice that serves as background harmony.
One is live singing.
Because of vocal synthesis, the effect of using a computer is actually very poor.
But the audience didn't think there was a problem at all, or even a flaw , they were just dumbfounded.
This word is too hurtful, isn't it?
"Too late, too late
You obviously hate suffocation
The scattered moonlight passed through the clouds
Hiding from the crowd
Slip into the seabed
There you are~"
When Han Zhou finished singing a song, the place fell silent.
Almost no one spoke.
The anticipation and joy of watching a movie disappeared without a trace.
Depressed, dull, repressed, and suffocating.
No matter what the thought is, it's very depressing.
Han Zhou looked at the audience and asked, "If you feel depressed, gloomy, or repressed, please raise your hands."
Many people raised their hands.
Out of three hundred people, more than two hundred and ninety raised their hands.
Han Zhou asked again: "Okay, please put it down."
"Now, those who feel understood, felt, heard, and seen, please raise your hands."
"Please! Make sure you raise your hand."
Han Zhou gave them a long time to react.
In the back row, two audience members raised their hands, and in the media group, one person raised his hand.
Han Zhou: "Please stand up, all three of you."
The reporter from the media group slowly stood up.
In the back row, both arms were retracted and no one stood up.
Han Zhou: "Excuse me, everyone. Please stand up."
In the back row, two people stood up.
A middle-aged man and a young girl.
Han Zhou looked at the three people seriously and said, "This movie is not suitable for you three to watch."
"You may have been deceived by netizens on the Internet. This movie is not a comedy."
"I know that just yesterday, today, and even later, there will be people who will be tricked into going to the cinema to watch this supposed comedy."
"I'm sorry, but this movie is not a comedy."
"The staff will make arrangements. Please leave."
The middle-aged man in the back row walked out silently.
The little girl took a long time to realize that it was she who was being talked about. She also raised her feet and walked down the stairs with her head down.
Han Zhou: "I implore all the fans and viewers who want to watch this "Hello Mr. Tree" to listen to this song "Under the Sea" first. If you feel depressed after listening to it, you can go and watch it. If you feel understood and seen, then don't go and watch it."
Han Zhou did not directly say the word "depression" because this version of the song is not for ordinary people to listen to.
As long as 'they' hear it, they will know that this song is for them.
The second version of "Under the Sea" is for ordinary people to listen to, but this version is not available for the time being. Perhaps the second version of "Under the Sea" can be sung by An Lan.
Han Zhou will consider releasing a third version of "Under the Sea" only when the audience pays enough attention to the second version.
Faced with such a situation, other movie fans were confused.
They didn't know why three people were asked to leave.
I don’t know why Han Zhou did this.
But they probably have something to say, 'You're crazy, why don't you just say it directly? Why torture me with such a depressing song!'
You know, many people come to this place for the purpose of watching comedy movies.
Han Zhou took the microphone and said: "I'd like to give you this song 'Under the Sea' as a gift. It can be regarded as a vaccination for everyone. You can watch the movie now."
Han Zhou's style of doing things is really unpredictable. The host hurriedly took the stage and said, "Let's thank Han Zhou for his performance!"
At this time, the scene was silent and no one applauded.
No one cheered.
The host was embarrassed: "Okay, next, the movie will be officially broadcast!"
"Clear the stage, 'Hello Mr. Tree' is the protagonist today."
At this time, Han Zhou had already left the screening room and walked outside.
A reporter, an uncle, and a young girl, under the guidance of the staff, walked out of the screening room and stood at the door.
Han Zhou walked out.
The three of them had no intention of paying attention to Han Zhou.
Han Zhou: "Do you want to watch a comedy?"
This time, all three of them turned to look at Han Zhou.
The girl lowered her head and said nothing, and the uncle forced a strange smile.
Reporter: “Yes.”
Han Zhou: "Okay, my next movie will be a comedy, you can come and watch it then."
"This Hello Mr. Tree is not suitable for you now."
As he spoke, Han Zhou held out his hand: "Give me the ticket."
The little girl was stunned for a moment, then took out the ticket stub stupidly.
Han Zhou signed his name and said, "I owe you a movie. Go home and have a good rest."
The little girl probably knew why Han Zhou treated her like this. She thought she could be indifferent to everything, but at this moment, she had an idea and was looking forward to that comedy!
Uncle: "No need for an autograph, I'm waiting for your movie. Also, Rileiwa, return the money!"
Reporter: "Okay, remember the premiere of your comedy and send me a notification."
Han Zhou turned around and looked at Tianle's staff: "Please leave me their contact information."
The girl looked at Han Zhou: "I want to see a fool and a mute."
Han Zhou paused and nodded: "When the time comes, I will return you a fool and a mute, a comedy."
…
On Weibo, the entry #韩舟:看《莫树》先听《海底》# is skyrocketing.
The live-shot version of "Under the Sea" has been posted on short video websites and Weibo.
Many people who were originally planning to go to the movies were stunned.
Is there such a joint venture operation to hype up popularity?
"I want to hear what kind of big sword you have in mind."
For those who have already watched "Hello Mr. Tree", please click on "Under the Sea" to listen.
After hearing this, he covered his chest and said, "Another... I was stabbed."
