Entertainment: Since 1990

Chapter 59 Who is Cao Jian
"A Step into the Past" became a hit and caused a huge sensation in Hong Kong.

Since Jin Yong stopped writing and Gu Long passed away, there are fewer and fewer martial arts novels on the market, and it has been many years since a novel caused a sensation among Hong Kong people.

And this time, people seem to have discovered a new world.

cross?

I've never heard of it before. It turns out that novels can be written like this.

But who is this author?
How could he come up with the idea of ​​traveling through time?
The name Cao Jian does not seem to be a pen name, but a real name.

Many people immediately became extremely curious about this author.

A few days after "A Step into the Past" was serialized, many readers gathered at the entrance of the Ming Pao building, wanting to see what the author looked like.

Unfortunately, Cao Jian has no time to go now.

His schedule is full: recording in the morning, shooting MVs in the afternoon, and studying with teacher Hu Weili when he has time in the evening.

After these days, he made rapid progress in folk music such as erhu and flute, and even learned ocarina and suona.

"Xiao Cao, you are a writer now, and you can still come to me to study every day. You will definitely achieve great success in music in the future."

Hu Weili has also read "A Step into the Past". Others don't know, but he knows that the author everyone wants to know is his own student.

"Actually, I was just bored being alone and wanted to find something to do, so I wrote the book."

Cao Jian chuckled and said, "Teacher, you've been at TVB for so many years. If they have a good drama in the future, could you recommend one to me?"

"Let's talk about it next year after you attend the training class."

Hu Weili was worried that this student would embarrass him with his acting skills, so he said with a smile, "Besides, TVB's salary is very low, can you afford it?"

"It doesn't matter, it's just to train myself."

Cao Jian doesn't care about the treatment, he just wants to improve his acting skills.

"Ok."

Hu Weili was quite fond of this student: "I heard that the company is preparing a new drama called 'Big Times' for its 25th anniversary celebration. You can give it a try when the casting is open."

"Big time?"

The drama was very famous, and Cao Jian immediately became interested.

Not to mention that this drama is TVB's anniversary drama, the actors in it alone are enough to attract him.

This drama not only stars the beautiful Zhou Huimin and Hong Kong beauty Kwok Amy Kwok, but also the stunning beauty Lan Jieying and the peach Li Lizhen.

In addition, there are Liu Songren, Zheng Qiu and others.

I can definitely learn a lot by filming with these beautiful ladies.

If I could get the male lead.
"Haha, you're overthinking it."

Cao Jian doesn't think that as a newcomer, he can play the male lead in TVB's anniversary drama.

On May 15th, just when people were curious about who the author of "A Step into the Past" was, TVB's chief composer released a music album.

The album includes his previous musical works, but one of them is a song called "The Original Scenery of Hometown", which was composed not by Hu Weili but by Cao Jian.

The release of this album once again caused quite a stir in the Hong Kong music scene.

The beautiful artistic conception of "The Original Scenery of Hometown" made many people quickly fall in love with this song.

As for the creator Cao Jian, everyone is more curious about this person.

Who is this person who can write novels and compose music?

Could it be the person who sang "Walk Away with Style" before?
impossible!
The singer of that album is from mainland China and shouldn't be in Hong Kong.

Maybe they have the same name and surname.

This Cao Jian is Hu Weili’s student. What is his relationship with Cao Jian from mainland China?
Only people inside PolyGram know that the Cao Jian in mainland China and the Cao Jian who writes books in Hong Kong are actually the same person.

Of course Zhou Huimin also knew it, but this secret was not important to her.

At this time, she was listening to music alone in the room, and her rumored boyfriend Ni Kuang had gone somewhere unknown.

"In the wind there is a cloud made of rain, a cloud made of rain. The cloud's heart is filled with rain, and every drop is you. In the wind there is a cloud made of rain, a cloud made of rain. The cloud is heartbroken in the wind, and I don't know where it will be blown next."

The singer's voice is very nice and sweet, but there is some sadness in the sweetness.

It's similar to her other song "I Don't Want to Say".

Zhou Huimin felt a little uncomfortable listening to this.

She had a good idea of ​​what kind of person her rumored boyfriend was. And her feelings at the moment, like the song goes, didn't know where the wind would blow.
While listening to the music, she suddenly remembered that although this song was from an album released in mainland China, the lyricist and composer was also Cao Jian.

I heard that this album is selling very well. It is said that the sales in mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan have exceeded three million.
"Cao Jian said last time that he could write a song for me. Do you want to ask next time?"

Just as she thought of this, she shook her head again: "Forget it, this guy hasn't paid much attention to me during this period. It seems that now that he has become famous, he has lost his mind."

Thinking of Cao Jian’s recent performance, Zhou Huimin suddenly felt a little disappointed.

I used to look at myself often, but I haven’t looked at myself for a while. Are you tired of it?

Are all men like this?

……

Japanese country.

A musician named Sojiro is currently composing an ocarina piece.

He consulted a lot of precious music materials and visited many places, so he was very confident in his new music. As long as he created it, it would definitely be a great piece of music.

But I never expected that when I had just finished creating half of the song, I heard that a song called "The Original Scenery of Hometown" was released in Hong Kong.

It’s the same song title as the one I thought of?
Moreover, the feeling of the song is pretty much the same as what I imagined.

Then what else should I write?
Sojiro really wanted to tear up the manuscript in his hand.

"Hey"

I tore half of it, felt that it was the result of my own hard work, put it back, and picked up the music album that my friend brought back.

"The Original Scenery of My Hometown", composed by Cao Jian, arranged and proofread by Hu Weili.

He had read this introduction several times. When he read it again, he closed his eyes in pain and muttered to himself: "Who is this Cao Jian? I need to go to Hong Kong to meet him when I have time."

……

Cao Jian didn't know that the music "Original Scenery of Hometown" had already been seen by the original author.

He has been very busy recently, busy recording albums, learning folk music with his teacher, and practicing the song "The Sea".

“The Sea” is a masterpiece, but the tune is very high.

Many people can sing, but it is still very challenging to sing well.

For the sake of this student, Hu Weili took him to visit Hong Kong's music godfather Dai Sicong to give him guidance on Cao Jian's singing skills.

Therefore, Cao Jian was so busy that he didn't even have time to flirt with Zhou Huimin.

With the help of the two music giants, Cao Jian's singing skills have improved rapidly, and he is now able to express the feeling of the song "The Sea" very well with his singing.

On this day at the end of May, he went to the company as usual early in the morning and bought a newspaper at the door of the apartment.

Now he has gradually become accustomed to reading newspapers in traditional Chinese characters.

However, after reading for a while, a piece of news made his heart tremble.

"Since May, severe floods have hit eastern China, affecting over 4800 million people and leaving countless others homeless."

Cao Jian vaguely remembered this news before he was reborn.

In addition, the Hong Kong entertainment industry also held a charity performance to donate money for the flood.

However, he had not heard about the charity performance at PolyGram.

Since his compatriots were suffering from the disaster, he naturally could not sit idly by.

After arriving at the company, Cao Jian did not go to the recording studio, but found Li Ming.

Li Ming did charity work and was willing to twist steel bars with his neck to get sugar pills for Chinese children. For this reason, he will definitely lend a helping hand.

"Brother Li Ming, have you watched the news?"

"What news?"

"Look at it."

Cao Jian handed the newspaper to Li Ming and said, "You're quite famous in Hong Kong. How about you help organize a charity show with some celebrities you know?"

"Let me see"

Li Ming took the newspaper, took a look at it, and immediately said, "This thing can be done!"
