Zhang Ye sang.
The music arrangement teacher quickly wrote down the notation.
One time …
And another time …
After half a day had passed and he had sung it several times, the notation for the song was finally completed. After putting it together with the lyrics, the song was completed.
"Complete." Zhang Ye shook the notation in his hand.
The music arrangement teacher was also sweating from exhaustion. He wiped his forehead with the back of his hand and said, "Teacher Zhang, can we do it a little earlier next time? Our program team spent a lot of money to invite these four coaches. The outside world might not even know how much money we spent, but if they found out, they would definitely explode. These four coaches are all big shots in the music industry. We were the ones who arranged for them, but they came all the way here. If we really couldn't come up with a song to rehearse, how embarrassing would that be? It would be as if we had tricked them all. "
Those celebrities were no ordinary people. If they really fell out and refused to record the program or rehearse the song, their program team would be in big trouble.
But Zhang Ye did not think much of it. He smiled and said, "Didn't I make it in time?"
When the music arrangement teacher heard this, he was left speechless. Indeed, this song had only taken 20 minutes to complete. If the time spent on the notation was excluded, then Zhang Ye had only taken less than a minute or even less. It was as though he had written it while singing it. The music arrangement teacher swore that he had been in the industry for many years and knew countless songwriters and singers. But when it came to the speed of writing a song, Zhang Ye was definitely the best he had ever seen. He looked at Zhang Ye with eyes full of admiration. He was completely in awe of Zhang Ye! When the rehearsal staff arrived at the door, Zhang Ye wrote the song on the spot and even managed to write it out! In the entire industry, other than Zhang Ye, there was really no one else who dared to do this and could do it! No one would believe it even if they said it out loud. Anyone who came would have to kneel!
Well, as for the quality of the song, the music arrangement teacher did not pay attention to it. Firstly, he was too anxious to write down the notation, so his mind was not on the melody or lyrics. Secondly, Zhang Ye's singing skills were average and could only be said to be average. Thirdly, without any accompaniment or instruments, he really could not tell that it was a cappella.
There was a knock on the door. Dong, dong, dong.
Before Zhang Ye could invite her in, she had already pushed the door open and entered.
Assistant Director Zhang Zuo said anxiously, "Director Zhang, I can't hold them back any longer. The four teachers can't wait any longer and have already come over to see you."
Zhang Ye nodded. "It's been hard on you, Brother Zhang."
Zhang Zuo had really put in a lot of effort, making up lies and finding excuses. The four mentors were all famous big shots, and the least popular one was a national bel canto artist. Each of them was more powerful than the last, so it was only natural that he felt a lot of pressure dealing with them.
At this moment, a shout came from the corridor outside.
"Little Zhang?" It was Grandma Zhang's voice.
Then, Zhang Yuanqi called out to someone, "Miss, where's your executive director?"
The female employee let out an 'ah' and said, "I don't know either."
Zhang Xia said, "I know he must be here. Ask him to come out. He asked us to rehearse. He's hiding from us. It's been almost half an hour. Why hasn't he appeared yet?"
Zhang Ye quickly walked out of the door with the score in hand. When he saw the end of the corridor, he laughed and went up to greet them. "Grandma Zhang, Sister Zhang, Brother Chen, Sister-in-law, you're all here?"
Chen Guang said in a speechless manner, "We've been here for a long time."
Zhang Yuanqi looked behind him and said with a smile, "You've been hiding here?"
Zhang Ye sighed and said, "Why would I be hiding? No, I was held up by some matters here and couldn't leave." He turned around to look at Zhang Zuo and pretended to be angry. "Brother Zhang, why didn't you call me when the teachers were already here? If I knew, I would have put aside my important matters first. What could be more important than the teachers?"
Zhang Zuo thought to himself that it was you who told me to hold them back. "… I'll be more careful next time."
Zhang Ye reminded, "The next time the teachers look for me, you must inform me immediately. Look at how I nearly caused the teachers to misunderstand me this time."
Zhang Yuanqi looked at him. "I don't think it's a misunderstanding."
Zhang Ye coughed.
Zhang Xia criticized, "You're so unpunctual. You made us sit here and wait for more than 20 minutes? You should have at least given us the score first. "
Zhang Ye also felt a little embarrassed. He was the one who made the appointment, but he had forgotten about it. It was really unjustifiable. "Grandma Zhang, you're right. It's my fault this time. It's all my fault."
Fan Wenli blinked and said keenly, "Could it be that there's a problem with the theme song?"
He said without any guilt, "How could that be possible? There's no problem at all. I actually finished writing it a long time ago. I spent a week on it and carefully crafted it. Regarding the lyrics and the tune, I went through a lot of careful deliberation. It's definitely the best of the best. See, the score is right here. I've been waiting for you teachers to come." Zhang Ye immediately lost his smile. He lied without any hesitation and said, "How can that be?
Spent a week?
Meticulous? Deliberated? Meticulous?
The music arrangement teacher looked up at the ceiling in silence.
Zhang Xia and the others walked over. "Is that so?"
"Let me have a look." Zhang Yuanqi took the score from him.
Chen Guang and Fan Wenli were also watching from the side. They started humming along with the lyrics, "Want to fly … into the sky … Side by side with the sun …" As they were not familiar with this song and had never heard it before, they could only hum it intermittently as they read the music score and hummed the lyrics at the same time.
This was also the first time that the music arrangement teacher seriously savored the song. He had not listened to it carefully before.
Fan Wenli was a music teacher and had taught students how to write scores in the past. Therefore, she was much more familiar with this aspect and adapted much faster than the others. She was the first to sing the song in its entirety.
"Never afraid of others seeing the dreams I want to have.
"Here, I can make them come true.
"Laughing loudly, letting you and me walk side by side.
"Where can't there be endless joy.
"Casting aside my worries, bravely striding forward.
"I'm standing in the middle of the stage!"
When the other three coaches saw that Fan Wenli was singing so smoothly, they stopped and quietly listened to Fan Wenli sing from the beginning to the end.
The more they listened, the more their expressions changed!
The first to be stunned was Zhang Zuo. He did not understand music, nor did he know anything about melodic changes or even the octaves. He only knew that this song was very nice to listen to. It was the kind of work that would make one's heart skip a beat after listening to it once. Moreover, the lyrics were very inspiring and moving. Dreams could come true here? Wasn't this the sound that their The Voice wanted to make!? Didn't they just want to provide a platform to realize their dreams!? It was too fitting!
Then the music arrangement teacher was stunned. He was also dumbfounded. He had thought that Zhang Ye was just messing around and was at his wit's end before randomly coming up with a song to replace the song. The quality of the song couldn't possibly be too good. If it was a song that could be written in a minute, how good could it possibly be? It was already a miracle that he could even write it. But when the music arrangement teacher finished listening to it, he knew that he was wrong. He was wrong from the start! This song was too great! How could this be a work that was messed around!
Honestly speaking, if the music arrangement teacher had not witnessed Zhang Ye composing it on the spot, he would not have believed what he was seeing even if he was beaten to death! The speed was fast, the quality was high, the melody was good, and it even matched the mood and spirit of the program's theme song. The music arrangement teacher knew that his horizons had been broadened today!
Fan Wenli finished singing.
Chen Guang was no longer unhappy from waiting for half an hour and had long forgotten about it. After listening to the song, he gave Zhang Ye a thumbs up.
Zhang Xia also nodded in appreciation. "Good song!"
Fan Wenli was also very satisfied. She said, "This song is practically tailor-made for this program. The lyrics are good, and the melody is good. Teacher Zhang has really put in a lot of effort."
Zhang Ye smiled and waved it off. "Not really. I only wrote it for eight to nine days."
Chen Guang lamented, "Not only did he have to work on the stage, but he also had to find time to write a song. To be able to write such a good song in just eight to nine days, Teacher Zhang's talent is indeed extraordinary."
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "No matter how busy or tiring I am, it's only natural. After all, I'm the executive director."
But suddenly, Zhang Yuanqi rubbed her hand against the last part of the score and said, "Why is the ink on this score still not dry yet?"
Zhang Ye broke out in a sweat when he heard that.
Fan Wenli went up to have a look. "It's true."
Zhang Xia also reached out to touch it, then suddenly looked at Zhang Ye. "Little Zhang, you got someone to hold us back for more than 20 minutes. Don't tell me that you forgot about writing the song and wrote it on the spot?"
Chen Guang was dumbfounded. "Ah? You just wrote this song? "
Zhang Zuo was also shocked. He knew that Zhang Ye must have had a reason for asking him to hold back the four teachers, but he did not expect it to be this!
The music arrangement teacher looked down and did not seem to have heard anything.
Zhang Ye hurriedly said, "How could that be? How could I have forgotten about such an important matter? I did finish writing it a long time ago, but when I looked at it with the music arrangement teacher just now, there were some problems with the notes, so I made some changes. Then … then I copied it again, so the ink wasn't dry yet."
Chen Guang found a problem with his words. "Didn't you say that you had finished writing the score a long time ago and were busy with other matters just now?"
"Ah? Did I say that? "Zhang Ye said.
Fan Wenli also said in surprise, "You couldn't have really written it on the spot, right? In just over 20 minutes? How could that be! When I got my team to write a song in a designated area, it would have taken at least half a day to complete! And the quality might not even be guaranteed. "
Zhang Ye added, "That's why I didn't forget …"
Zhang Xia exposed him to Chen Guang and his wife. "Little Zhang is famous for writing songs very quickly. That 'Woman Flower' at the Spring Festival Gala was written by him in a flash. It only took a minute or two to compose."
Zhang Yuanqi smiled and added, "It's the same for 'Wishing We Last Forever.' The lyrics were a poem he wrote a long time ago, and the tune was composed by Little Zhang on the spot. It didn't even take a few minutes."
Chen Guang: "…"
Fan Wenli: "…"
They only just found out that Zhang Ye had done such a thing!
Could it be that Zhang Ye had really waited for them to step into Central TV's front door for the song to be rehearsed before he calmly wrote the song? From a certain perspective, he was really a godly person!
