On the other side, Zaro also said to his agent, "Hey, this song isn't bad either. It's quite interesting. Note it down. Who knows, it might be useful in my future films and TV series!"
Zaro's agent did not utter a word.
This was only the second song. What if Zaro changed his mind later on? In any case, he would not let Zaro squander his money here.
The first two songs had already shown the quality of this concert. Just as the elders in Xue Jing's group had said, as long as the quality of the later songs was not too far off from the first two, this concert was in the bag!
After that, the third song, "The Power of Life," was inspired by the germination of the arrow sunflowers in planet Baiji's Outpost 23 experimental plot.
The opening seemed monotonous and repetitive, but it had a kind of murmur of beauty. The gradual, overall arrangement carried the tension of life. The more one listened, the more one would be drawn into the mood it created.
Amidst the foreshadowing harmonies, the emotions slowly advanced. The silence and struggle of life, the eruption of breaking through the soil, and the cries were all displayed!
This was a piece that had a lot of stamina and could evoke a strong emotional resonance in the audience.
Then came the fourth song, "Enemy Attack," the fifth song, "Counterattack," the sixth song, "Legion."
When they heard this, many fans who had been watching the "100-Year Period of Destruction" series online revealed nostalgic smiles.
It was still a familiar formula, and it was still a familiar flavor.
Similar to the style of the "100-Year Period of Destruction" series, "Enemy Attack" was filled with layers of danger and tension. It was as if every nerve in the audience was stretched taut.
The majestic and imposing orchestral music of "Counterattack" was thick and heroic. Even through the screen and audiovisual equipment, one could feel the scalp-numbing murderous aura.
There was also the heart-stirring music of "Legion" as the heavy soldiers advanced step by step.
...
Listening to each song, it was like having a hot pot in the middle of winter and sweating profusely.
Satisfying!
It was a completely different tune from the "100-Year Period of Destruction," but people who heard it could immediately recognize that it was composed by the same composer.
If they had listened to these songs from the beginning, many old veterans of the music industry would surely have thought: Fang Zhao is still doing the same old thing and only knows this kind of style. But after listening to the first three songs, they could only sigh. "This little fella is really not simple!"
And what completely changed people's minds about Fang Zhao was the ninth song, which was also the second last song of the concert: "Encore."
"Encore? Another one? " Zaro looked at the title of the ninth song on the song list, puzzled. When he saw Barbara looking at him, he hurriedly said, "Oh right, it seems like there's something about the Life Symbol?"
After saying that, Zaro gave a thumbs up for his profound knowledge, feeling especially proud of himself. In the end, he saw Barbara roll her eyes again.
Was it not?
Puzzled, Zaro flipped through the electronic music list and looked at the background of the composition of this song.
"Name? Is Ann a person's name? "Zaro muttered to himself with a confused look on his face.
His manager sighed silently at the back. This was the consequence of not knowing anything and yet speaking without thinking. Idiot!
"Young Master, the names of the songs on the music list are written in different fonts," the agent explained in a low voice.
Zaro flipped back to the list and looked at the title of the ninth song. The font was really different from the previous ones.
However, Zaro was thick-skinned and didn't feel embarrassed at all. It was as if he had discovered a big secret. "So, it was written for a newborn baby?"
"Er … according to the explanation on the background of the creation, that's correct," the agent replied.
The lights on the stage changed. This time, there was no specific image. Instead, there was a warm hue that looked like rippling water.
The sound of a piano rang out.
The prelude was very gentle. Every single note on the piano leaped in the heart, simple and clear.
The violin created a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere. It was like the first ray of sunlight shining through the clouds after a gloomy rainy morning. It warmed the heart.
The melodious violin and piano concerto stirred up waves in the tranquil place.
The unbroken string notes were like a morning breeze brushing past a stream, blowing out of the forest and slowly ascending. There were some bumps, but in the end, it traversed mountains and rivers, flew over the wilderness, and soared into the vast sky, playing a majestic and free music!
It felt like something was flowing faster, but it wasn't time.
It wasn't as fierce, not as heavy. It carried warmth and light, waiting for time to brew the answer.
The entire song was like an invisible spring, carefully and continuously seeping into the heart. By the time he came back to his senses, his heart had already been filled.
The music contained too many emotions, but just as it was about to gush out, it was suppressed.
Even Xue Jing was flabbergasted after listening to it.
"This is … Fang Zhao's composition?"
"After listening to the previous few songs, listening to this one is … very surprising."
"It's a little like that student of Ming Cang's from a few months ago, Ha Wen's style."
"No, it's different from Ha Wen's."
Ha Wen's style was the kind of warm, gentle, and exquisite, while Fang Zhao's "Encore" had a resplendent glow under this kind of tranquility. It looked simple and clear, but it also had an indescribable power to it!
When the song ended, Ha Wen clapped vigorously and shook his head with a smile, as if he had seen something inconceivable. He told his wife beside him, "What an impressive junior! Really impressive! "
Zaro was also deeply moved. "In the future, when my own child is born, I will also get him to compose a song for me!" Thinking about it, he felt wronged. Why hadn't his father thought of getting someone to compose a song for him when he was born?
After lamenting, Zaro habitually glanced to the side to check on the situation in the neighboring room. He discovered that there was a figure moving about in the neighboring room. This made Zaro suspicious.
The previous room had been quieter. Even if there were people moving about, only one person was moving. It was probably a bodyguard or assistant who was pouring tea or something. But now, it seemed like there was something going on over there.
Could it be that they finally couldn't resist going to the toilet? Zaro thought mischievously.
As for Barbara, after listening to the ninth song, she was a little dazed. Following that, she wrote two lines in her notebook and stopped, as if she was hesitating about something. Finally, she became determined.
She decided to buy this song!
Calling her assistant over, Barbara instructed, "Contact..."
She had only just started when she was cut off.
Barbara stared at the electronic music list. After the ninth song, "Encore," the originally hollow circle had become solid.
The hollow circle signified that the copyright had not been sold, while the solid circle signified that it had already been sold.
How long had it been since the ninth song ended?
Had it even been a minute?!
Who?
Who exactly had intercepted her target?!!
If not for the sake of maintaining her elegant aristocratic image, Barbara would have flipped the table in front of her!
Preposterous! Daring to intercept her goods!
However, things had already come to this. Barbara suppressed the rage in her heart and continued to sit there with a cold expression. She would wait until the concert ended before investigating. She wanted to see exactly who had been so fast!
The tenth and final song of the concert, "Expedition," had a picture of Baiji military district's spaceport in the background. This was a picture that Shanta had carefully selected and sent over.
The opening three low frequency warning sounds of "Expedition" were like fog whistles. It was as if the entire concert hall was shaking three times in response. This set the main key of this song.
Domineering! Stunning!
That warning sound was actually imitated by musical instruments during the performance, so it was different from the actual warning sound. However, every person who served in the military district knew that it meant that a large transport ship or spacecraft was approaching planet Baiji. Within the spaceport, a large number of flying transports were about to land, and unrelated personnel were being evacuated.
The crisp sound of the piano, the imposing trombone, and the rousing beat of the drums made one feel as if through the background image, one could see millions of large and small flying transports taking off and landing in planet Baiji's spaceport. It was as if one could see that enormous expeditionary force on planet Baiji!
Under the stimulation of the music, every nerve was abnormally excited. It was as if hot blood had already boiled into steam, spurting out from the pores of one's body. Even if one closed one's eyes, one could still feel that grand scene!
Combining industry with technology, this icebreaker had truly broken through the layers of ice and taken a step towards outer space!
From one planet to another, from one star system to another.
My army, carrying hot blood, courageously advance, conquering the sea of stars!
Baiji military district main base.
Bang!
Shanta slammed his palm forcefully on the tea table beside him and laughed heartily. "This is it! Seize it! "
Actually, when the three simulated warning sounds of the instruments had sounded, Shanta had wanted to slam the table, but he had felt that as a dignified commander, he should not be so impatient. It was rare that he had waited until the song was over before slapping down.
"Contact Fang Zhao..." After some thought, Shanta added, "Contact Silver Wing... Forget it, Hong Lou, you go speak to your wife yourself!"
Sitting beside him, Hong Lou: "..."
Silver Wing was Fang Zhao's concert management company and was in charge of managing the copyrights. If one wanted to buy it, one had to approach Silver Wing. That was why Shanta had gotten Hong Lou to look for Duan Qianji. Directly contacting the big boss was more efficient, and he could even get a discount.
Hong Lou sighed, returned to his office, and picked up his communications device to contact Duan Qianji. Of course, he knew how much Fang Zhao's works could fetch on the market. He also knew that if Baiji military district wanted them, Duan Qianji would surely offer a rather reasonable price. The main reason was because he was here, and it was not good to offend Shanta. He had to go along with Shanta's wishes. It was not that they were afraid of Shanta, but there was no need to incur enmity. In the grand scheme of things, a piece was just a small matter.
This time, Duan Qianji would have to earn less money.
At this moment, Duan Qianji was looking at those professionals' evaluations of Fang Zhao's concert. Seeing their approval of this concert, she was happy. She was happy for Fang Zhao and happy for those works that were about to sell for a good price.
After this, Fang Zhao's value in the circles would rise once again.
At this moment, Duan Qianji received a call from Hong Lou. She was curious why Hong Lou would contact her at this time. Could it be that he wanted to congratulate her?
When the call went through, Duan Qianji saw Hong Lou's guilt-ridden face.
Hong Lou: "Wifey, I have let you down!"
Duan Qianji's hands trembled, and the smile on her face nearly crumbled.
When she heard the rest of Hong Lou's words, Duan Qianji realized that he was talking about Fang Zhao's final song, "Expedition," at tonight's concert.
Duan Qianji let out a long sigh of relief. In her heart, she cursed, I f * cking thought you cheated!
"Your Baiji military district wants to buy it?" Duan Qianji asked.
"Mmhm. Shanta said that the most important thing is to get the last song."
"All right, got it. We can discuss the price later. I will first change the label." As she spoke, Duan Qianji changed the hollow circle at the back of "Expedition" to a solid one.
