Chapter 988 1088. Music Festival (Part 1)

The American Music Festival was an invitation received before, and coincidentally, it overlapped with Shu Chang's schedule.

"The American Music Festival is a three-day schedule. If you can adjust your schedule a little, I can invite you to listen to my live concert in Miami to see if your husband is very popular in North America." Nie Wei put his arm around Shu Chang, raised his eyebrows, and said jokingly.

Shu Chang rolled her eyes at Nie Wei with her beautiful eyes, but the tenderness in her eyes melted Nie Wei's heart.

Five days later, even if she was reluctant to leave, Shu Chang had to go to the United States in advance, working while waiting for Nie Wei's arrival, and Nie Wei was also busy with the preliminary preparations for the documentary of the Bauhinia Museum. Basically, after Nie Wei finished participating in the music festival, he could return to China to officially shoot.

I didn't expect that Dan Zhang's seemingly joking words would actually be put into action.

Su Qing was surprised and hesitant to hear that Nie Wei was asked to film her private life. In her heart, she really wanted to appear in the documentary filmed by her son, and she also wanted to know what her son's daily work was like.

But she was afraid that this would disturb her peaceful life, and she always had a little fear of working and living under the camera.

"Mom, I won't film your life at home, just your daily life when you are at work and on business trips." After knowing the reason for his mother's hesitation, Nie Wei also explained.

He would not deliberately encourage Su Qing to film a documentary, but if Su Qing really wanted to, he would naturally welcome it.

Su Qing is not an actor, and maybe this is the only chance for Nie Wei to use the camera to record his mother in this life.

Su Qing thought about it for two days and finally agreed.

Since Su Qing is willing to agree to the request for filming, the experts in ceramics have been determined. In addition, there are bronze, wood, calligraphy and painting, clocks, lacquerware and other categories. The Bauhinia Museum is also asking which experts are willing to appear in the documentary.

As for the objects to be repaired, the Bauhinia Museum also came up with many plans and handed them over to Nie Wei.

In fact, the Bauhinia Museum has never stopped the restoration of cultural relics. Just like Su Qing, in addition to teaching at the university, her job at the Bauhinia Museum is to repair those cultural relics every day.

After all, as the largest museum in China, they really have too many collections, and there are so many damaged old objects that they fill the warehouse. In the words of an old master, even if he spends his entire life, he will not be able to repair these cultural relics.

This is a job that requires several generations to do, and this is why the masters of the Bauhinia Museum are eager to find inheritors, because if there are no inheritors, then these old objects can only be submerged in the dust of history. This is not only a loss of the value of cultural relics, but also a loss of Chinese civilization.

Isn’t the five thousand years of Chinese culture proved by these antiques? For the country, their own value lies in the inheritance of civilization.

This time, among the objects selected by the Bauhinia Museum for restoration, most of them have completed more than 80% of the restoration work, and they are all works that are confident that they can be restored within half a year.

When Nie Wei got the catalog, he was also dazzled by the works that can be called national treasures.

These old objects are completely witnesses of the brilliant fame of various dynasties in China and the incredible strength of Chinese industry at that time.

Let’s take the Wanshou Screen as an example. There are a total of 32 Wanshou Screens. They were collectively presented by Kangxi’s sons and grandsons on his 60th birthday. The reason why it is called Wanshou Screen is that these screens show a full 10,000 "Shou" characters of various styles.

These Shou characters are all works completed by the best embroiderers from all over the country.

The stitches and superb techniques on them, many of which are even impossible for machines to do now.

But unfortunately, many embroidery methods have been lost to this day.

When Nie Wei and his team saw the real thing, they were even more fascinated by it. It was hard to believe that the screen, which was as fine and dense as woven cloth, was embroidered with needle and thread.

Hu Lan even wanted to reach out and touch it, but she was stopped by the accompanying staff member halfway through her action.

"Director Hu, these embroidery works cannot be touched directly."

"But why can those people?" Hu Lan pointed to some staff members of the Bauhinia Museum not far away and asked with a hint of dissatisfaction.

The staff member patiently explained to Hu Lan: "Sister Wang's family has been embroiderers for generations. Their hands are carefully cared for and maintained. There is no callus or even barbs on their fingers, so they can touch silk or fabrics directly, but ordinary people like us can't. Without carefully cared for hands, it is really possible to damage these old objects if you are not careful."

After listening to the explanation, Hu Lan was a little embarrassed. She put her hands behind her back and apologized sincerely to the staff.

"It's okay. I didn't explain it clearly before. Just pay attention next time." Because there was no damage to the cultural relics, the staff didn't care and just reminded him again.

If the Wanshou screen gave Nie Wei and others an incomparable shock, then in the clock and watch restoration area, the various clocks gave everyone a sense of wonder.

The sound of ding-dong-dong was crisp and pleasant, and the unique designs of those clocks made people dazzled and amazed.

It can be said that the technology behind these clocks is still up to date in modern times.

Especially when everyone knew that many of the gears in these clocks were made by hand, they could not help but marvel.

Nie Wei took the team to visit the Bauhinia Museum, where they saw Tang Sancai, Shang and Zhou bronzes, and Buddha statues...

In fact, everyone present had visited the Bauhinia Museum before, and most of them had visited it more than once. However, most of them saw these historical relics at such a close distance for the first time, and except for Nie Wei, the rest of them saw these cultural relic restoration experts repairing cultural relics for the first time.

When everyone returned to the company for a summary meeting, everyone's ideas came out like a spring. The summary meeting, which was originally scheduled for one hour, lasted for two and a half hours.

In this way, Nie Wei kept calling the writers and directors of the documentary crew after returning home.

Some of these ideas are worth using in documentaries, and some are purely whimsical, but brainstorming can always make documentaries better. However, Nie Wei does not have time to sort out these ideas for the time being. He is about to board his private plane to go to the United States to participate in the All American Music Festival.

This time, the All American Music Festival invited well-known musicians from all over the world to participate.

Among the known guests, there are 50 Cent, Eminem, Rihanna, etc., and many DJs who are top 100 in the world will come to the scene. This music festival is not only a stage for singers to show their music, but also a carnival day for fans.

And what's interesting is that there is no rehearsal session at the All American Music Festival, at least there is no rehearsal session at the music festival, which is a great test of the singer's on-site skills.

It is precisely because of this that the All American Music Festival will be the focus of attention of major media every year. They are happy to report the wonderful performances of those singers, and they also like to report the embarrassing things of singers forgetting lyrics, singing out of tune, etc. on stage.

There is even an album on YouTube dedicated to embarrassing videos of music festivals across the United States, and the number of hits on this album has accumulated over 100 million times in the past few years, making it a very popular album on YouTube.

After all, celebrity mistakes can be said to be gossip that the media and the audience like, especially when the more famous and powerful singers have problems, the audience wants to see more.

After Nie Wei came to the United States, he landed in Los Angeles.

There was no other reason, just because Shu Chang worked in Los Angeles, Nie Wei stayed in the hotel where Shu Chang was that day, and after resting for half a day to adjust to the jet lag, Nie Wei took Shu Chang to the Staples Center to watch a Lakers vs. Pelicans game in the evening.

I don’t know if it was because of the presence of the boss Nie Wei, the Lakers, who have been in poor form recently, played particularly well tonight. The previous clang of iron-making has completely turned into a swish today.

In the end, the Lakers beat the Pelicans 113-92 and won a big victory in the regular season tonight. After the game, Jenny invited Nie Wei and Shu Chang to have a midnight snack together.

Early the next morning, Nie Wei went to Miami with Shu Chang and others.

This itinerary was adjusted long ago, in order to cooperate with Nie Wei's participation in the National Music Festival, and in this way, Nie Wei could also assist Shu Chang in handling work.

Shu Chang was surprised all day long. When she went out in the morning, she was still thinking about whether to pretend to be a senior and teach Nie Wei how to do the work of a producer. However, from the beginning, Shu Chang found that she was still a rookie in front of Nie Wei.

Not only Shu Chang herself, but also the two veteran producers who originally assisted her basically obeyed orders all day long.

Shu Chang even suspected that if Nie Wei changed his career to become a producer, he would definitely be welcomed by all directors in the world, because Nie Wei was really amazing, so amazing that he improved the progress of his original work by at least 100%.

Shu Chang and others originally needed two days to complete the work, but under Nie Wei's command, they completed it in one day. The key is that everyone didn't feel busy at all. They just listened to Nie Wei's command in an orderly manner and completed every task very efficiently.

"How did you do it?" Shu Chang couldn't help asking Nie Wei when he returned to the hotel at night.

"In fact, the producer tests the planning ability. If you do a good job of planning, the efficiency will naturally be high, and these also require experience accumulation. When you work as a producer for a few more times, you will naturally be able to do it." Nie Wei replied.

But Shu Chang would not believe this easily, at least not completely.

If it really depends on experience, why can't the two producer sisters next to him do it? The producer experience of these two sisters is definitely richer than that of Nie Wei and himself.

But Shu Chang didn't pester to ask further, just thinking that Nie Wei was gifted.

In fact, her idea was not wrong. The reason why Nie Wei was able to improve the efficiency of everyone so much was really due to his talent. He was not only good at planning, but also good at calculation.

Comparing the staff to engineers in a strategy game, Shu Chang is currently only an intermediate player. She can only follow the strategy to collect resources with engineers, but she is likely to be in a mess when encountering emergencies.

Shu Chang's two producer sisters are advanced players. They are experienced and can deal with various emergencies, but because of limited operations, they cannot take care of every staff member.

Nie Wei is the kind of top player who can play in the professional league. He can perfectly control the work of every engineer, so his efficiency is naturally high.

Of course, Nie Wei's work is also very shocking. After a day, Nie Wei fell asleep in bed after taking a shower at night, and he didn't have time to be intimate with Shu Chang. Shu Chang was heartbroken.

However, Nie Wei's hard work for a day was worth it. At least on the day of the music festival, Shu Chang could have a whole day off to accompany Nie Wei.

The music festival was held in the largest park in the local area. It is said that at least 100,000 people would flock to the festival that day. There was an open-air stage, top-notch impressions, and countless top musicians.

Such a scene also tests the singer's psychological quality. Facing 100,000 people is different from a concert. At least most of the people sitting below the concert are their own fans. Even if they make mistakes, they can just laugh it off and still gain the support of fans.

But it's different here. If a singer has no strength or has problems, he will really be booed.

100,000 people booing a singer, that scene is really scary to think about. The most terrible thing is that if he is really booed, the media will obviously not let the booed singer go, and it is very likely that it will be a lifelong stain if it is reported.

Although Nie Wei is not a professional singer, he obviously does not want to bear such a stain, so on the way to the music festival, he was adjusting his state. Shu Chang, who was standing beside him, was also very sensible and did not disturb Nie Wei.

When they arrived at the music festival, Nie Wei took Shu Chang to the lounge, and the remaining accompanying staff were given a ticket each, allowing them to wander around the music festival, which was considered a holiday for them.

"This is the cream I prepared for you. Drink a little later. It's good for your throat."

"You will perform on stage later. You can't eat too much, so I brought some more fruits. You should eat more fruits."

The waiting time is long. For singers like Nie Wei who are formally invited, the performances are all in the evening. That's when the real carnival of the music festival begins. Countless big-name singers will not go on stage until after 7 pm.

The daytime is usually reserved for underground independent singers and bands to show their music, and it is also the time for those agents and scouts to discover potential singers.

Thank you for Qiang Love Rong's generous reward of 1,000, and thank you for the generous reward of Fantasy Paradise and 0773.
