Chapter 370 It's like playing a game
When seniors and juniors go to have dinner together, the seniors are responsible for paying the bill. This is a very common practice, whether in the art world or in the company.
However, among funny artists, there is still an ecosystem that I don’t know if it is unique to them. That is, between seniors and juniors, even if they just meet by chance in the store, the seniors will still be responsible for paying the bill.
As for why he did this, Ye Zhao could not understand the deeper part, but in his guess, such a seemingly gentle and humane approach is actually an alternative manifestation of the strict system of the previous and juniors.
After dinner and leaving the restaurant, Makoto Hamada did not say goodbye to Ye Zhao, but then invited him to the bar to renew his room, "There is a very good store, let's go together."
Although one is a funny artist and the other is a singer, the two are not in the same field, but Makoto Hamada, who debuted twelve years earlier than Ye Zhao and has become a top funny artist, treated him with a rather casual attitude.
Anyway, it was fine next time, Ye Zhao nodded and agreed.
This time, Makoto Hamada's assistant did not follow him as a servant. The two of them bid farewell to their agents and assistants and instead took a taxi.
Makoto Hamada took him to a bar that rich people opened out of interest. Although it was completely different from the bar where Ginza had beautiful drink-friendly girls, it was indeed a membership system.
However, in its hidden location, even in a bar that is open to the public, no one is leading by outsiders, it is considered a fate that is worth a drink.
After two drinks, Makoto Hamada suddenly said, "How? Ye Jun, 'You can write anytime, anywhere', can you do it too?"
"Eh?" Ye Zhao showed an expression that he didn't know what he was talking about.
If this is a show, I guess Makoto Hamada's slap will hit him on the head now, and it will be accompanied by a disgusting "Idiot!"
However, although there may be a part of his personality that is shaking S, after the show, he was very kind to outsiders. At this time, he also patiently explained: "When I was recording the show, I said 'Wait until I have a few drinks before asking'? I'm waiting for your answer."
"Did you mean this..." Ye Zhao nodded, understanding, but he was a little speechless. The old man specially invited him to dinner and brought him to drink, just to find out if he could improvise the song like Tetsuya Komuro?
This really makes people wonder what to say...
"Yes, I'm really curious." Outside of work, Makoto Hamada said very directly, "I always compare you with Komurokun. Although I don't know much about music, when I saw Komurokun's ability to write music, I already regarded him as the most amazing musician, so I also want to know how far Ye Jun can do it."
"Komura San is indeed an amazing musician..." Ye Zhao echoed.
"Don't hide from the topic at this time," Hamada Makoto exposes him without hesitation. "It's not on the show, so don't worry about being taken advantage of.... But I like yours quite well, and you have a good grasp of the right degree. How about it? If you have time, you can go on a variety show more. You are definitely very good at it."
Masako Hamada speaks very fast, and with a little Kansai accent, Ye Zhao can only concentrate on listening to him. However, from writing songs to playing variety shows, the speed of the conversion is no less than his speaking speed.
"It's not difficult to say that using your mouth to hum a melody or playing a chord routine like this. However, what you do is just basic things.
How to match chords to melodies, or how to match melodies to chords, and how to determine the rhythm of the song - this is the soul of modern music. Filling only the state of bones with flesh and blood, then arranging and orchestrating it into a complete song, these are the most troublesome places."
Ye Zhao ignored the following words on the variety show and only answered the initial question of Makoto Hamada.
"Just you said, after Komuro-kun said 'ok', what he took out was not a complete song, but even if he said that, he could write anytime and anywhere, is that true?"
What Makoto Hamada shows is actually a typical layman's thinking, which reminds Ye Zhao of relatives who were asking you to perform in public when he heard that you were learning an instrument or a foreign language at a family gathering.
"Well, it would be OK if it was the level I just said." Ye Zhao said implicitly.
Including Tetsuya Komuro, who once showed improvisational compositions to Makoto Hamada, did not take out a song that was completely complete in all aspects while drinking. That kind of thing would not work even if you had a template in your mind.
"Although I keep asking others to hate it... But please think about what to write from now on..."
Judging from his performance, in addition to the "parents watching the fun" that Ye Zhao initially felt, he also felt that he was indeed full of interest in music, a field that was somewhat unfamiliar to him.
That's why I admire Tetsuya Komuro who can write music improvisation. I was also curious whether Tetsuya Komuro's "opponent" could have such magical skills, so I specially treat guests to dinner and drink, just to see it like this.
Of course, there are not many professional musicians who can improvise music. The reason why Hamada Masako cares about Ye Ao is particularly concerned about Ye Ao. Perhaps one of them is that Ye Ao was once regarded as Tetsuya Komuro, and as a member of the "Komu family", he also wants to know what extent the person who defeated him and Komuro could do.
"…Wait," Hamada Masako said again, "Although I don't know much about music, I also know that there are things like "Store Songs". So, let me limit a theme for you, right?"
"Hamda Sang," Ye Zhao asked, "When Komuro Sang was improvising, did you also restrict the theme?"
"Well, I didn't know that he really did it right away at that time, so it didn't." said Makoto Hamada.
"In this way, wouldn't it be particularly strict with me when it comes to water from Komuro San?" Ye Zhao joked halfway.
"No matter what, I am a member of the 'Komu family'. It doesn't matter if I am a little biased, right?" Masako Hamada said with a seemingly unreasonable look.
