When filming "The Last Emperor", due to the crew's carelessness during filming, a candle burned the carpet, which made it very difficult for subsequent crews to film a TV series in the Forbidden City.

Therefore, after entering the 1990s, movies that can be shot in the Forbidden City are very rare. If you want to film in the Forbidden City, you have to go through many layers of approvals, and the cost is not cheap.

Fortunately, Li Geng's relationship was strong enough, Ye Fan's reputation also played a role, and Zhang Guoli also helped, so it was approved.

After all, "Kangxi's Private Interview" was also filmed in the Forbidden City. He did enough for his son.

The construction of the Ming and Qing palaces in Hengdian was not started until 1998, and now there are no pictures at all. If you can't shoot in the Forbidden City, you will have to build another shed, or go to the summer resort to shoot. In that case, the time and money spent will be too much.

Taller.

The folk street part was filmed at the Beijing Film Studio, and other filming locations include the Grand View Garden in Yanjing, the Feiteng Film and Television Base in Yangsong Town, Huairou, and the Changling Tombs of the Ming Tombs.

Therefore, after Li Geng and Ye Fan discussed it, they decided to focus on filming the scenes in the Forbidden City first. This would not only save time and money, but also allow the opening ceremony to be held here, and also benefit from the blessings of the Forbidden City.

In an ordinary place, Ye Fan would not hold any kind of opening ceremony, but it was different in the Forbidden City. Ye Fan was still willing to pay his respects.

When Ye Fan and others came to the Forbidden City, they saw Zhang Guoli personally sending Brother Liu to attend the power-on ceremony. Ye Fan felt that Lao Zhang was worried about his son.

Before the filming started, everyone was interviewed by reporters as a way to promote the TV series.

Ye Fan, Xia Yu and Zhang Guoli were the people who were interviewed the most. The questions Xia Yu was asked were pretty good, and most of them were about TV series.

When reporters asked Zhang Guoli why he was promoting his son at this time, he also praised the TV series and avoided talking about "Kangxi's Private Interview" without overshadowing it.

But Ye Fan was annoyed. Most reporters didn't ask about the TV series, but only about his new album, which left him and Li Geng speechless.

Ye Fan didn't know many of the reporters' questions. He could only answer a few album questions in diplomatic terms, and said he would write songs for TV series, and then he changed the topic to TV series.

Ye Fan felt that the level of internal entertainment reporters was increasing rapidly, and they were becoming more and more difficult to deal with. After talking for about ten minutes, he ended the reporters' questions, and then the opening ceremony officially began.

On the table wrapped in red cloth were placed eucalyptus and tributes, but that was it. Ye Fan from the mainland did not dare and did not want to find any Feng Shui master to help.

Li Geng and Ye Fan took turns to speak on stage and said some clichés. At nine o'clock, everyone bowed to the eucalyptus. Even if the opening ceremony was officially over, the reporters basically left.

The first scene shot was when Xiao Wanzi and Zhang Chuchu traveled through time and space and came to the Ming Dynasty because they snatched the antique "Dream Dream Pillow".

When Ye Fan saw Yuan Quan's costume appearance, he suddenly thought that she had played Su Ying in "Little Fish and Flowers". Although the costume look was a little different, her acting skills were very good.

However, this is a time-travel drama, so Yuanquan's more modern facial features are not harmful, but can make the audience feel more involved. Now it depends on her acting skills, whether she can support the role of Xiao Wanzi.

Zeng Li's appearance made most of the men present shine. She was dressed in a black leather suit, which highlighted her slender figure, especially her long legs, which looked extremely sexy.

Ye Fan also saw his hormones rising and decided to take Zeng Li back to Sipingyuan to stay tonight no matter what, and he must bring this costume with him. He plays Zhu Di and has a scene opposite Zhang Chuchu. They will play opposite each other in the evening.

It's reasonable.

Thinking of the later plot where the two consummated their marriage, Ye Fan also decided to take his own clothes back and play cosplay to further deepen the plot. After all, you can't act so realistically on the set.

Thinking of this, Ye Fan turned around and went to put on makeup and change clothes. After filming the scene, it was his turn to appear...

While the crew was filming in an orderly manner, the sales of "The Wind Rises" became more and more popular, and the impact it caused was also growing.

July 6th was the day of the college entrance examination. Ye Fan was still in Hong Kong Island at this time, and he didn’t go to find out anything about the album when he came back.

In previous years, some cheerful or relaxing music would be played before the college entrance examination, but for this year's college entrance examination, most of the examination rooms in provinces and cities played Ye Fan's songs.

"Young Battlefield" and "Flying Higher" have the highest number of plays. In addition, during the period before the exam, the songs in "The Wind Rises" were very popular. This has caused the number of on-demand songs from Ye Fan's new album to continue to rise.

.

As of today, July 9, the rankings of these two songs have improved a lot, and "The Wind Rises" has also quickly appeared on the on-demand chart. At this time, the ranking on the on-demand chart is:

First place: Xiao Qi from "The Heart Is Too Soft";

Second place: Liu Huan from "Start Over";

Third place: "Stubborn" Ye Fan;

Fourth place: Ye Fan from "Young Battlefield";

Fifth place: Zhang Huimei from "Sisters";

Sixth place: "Fly Higher" by Ye Fan;

Seventh place: Zhou Huajian from "Friends";

Eighth place: Anita Mui in "Female Flower";

Ninth place: Zhang Huimei from "Listening to the Sea";

Tenth place: "The Wind Rises" by Ye Fan.

Ye Fan has four more songs on the charts. This reminds people of Ye Fan's record last year. His first album had 7 songs dominating the charts. Will this phenomenon happen again this year?

It's not impossible, because Ye Fan's other songs are closely followed. "Blue Lotus" ranked 11th, "Invisible Wings" ranked 13th, and "The Most Beautiful Sun" ranked 15th

, "Listen to Mom" ​​ranked twenty.

The first few songs appear frequently in college entrance examination examination rooms, and there are also many people who like "Lies" and "Butterfly".

Because these two songs are so dynamic and passionate, not only children like them very much, but many karaoke and dance halls will play these two songs.

The reviews of "Run" are not low, but the results are the worst. Who can explain this?

It can be said that most of the songs in "The Wind Rises" have caused great repercussions not only among fans and the media, but also in society.

For example, "The Wind Rises", the lyrics of this song are so well written that there are many good lines:

‘Through the years, different faces have appeared, and your smile has suddenly entered your face’

‘I saw you again, smiling sweetly in the cool morning light’

"I finally gave her my youth back, along with the summer that popped out of my fingertips"

…

The poetic lyrics touch the emotional points of many young people who are sad about spring and autumn, especially many adolescent boys and girls.

At this time, Xiao Dajin had fainted from crying in the toilet. There were many literary and artistic young people in his fan base, and many of them had already defected to Ye Fan's camp.

That's not all, "Blue Lotus" and "Invisible Wings" are not far behind either.

‘Nothing can stop your yearning for freedom’

‘You have no worries about your unrestricted life’

‘Through the dark years, I also felt hesitant’

…

Although the lyrics of "Blue Lotus" don't have many gorgeous words, the ordinary words seem to go straight to the depths of the soul, and the song sings of great wisdom and foolishness that is untainted by the mud.

Especially many middle-aged people who are confused about real life, and young people who have lost their sense of direction. When they hear this song, they feel the "Zen" charm in the lyrics, which awakens them and makes them suddenly enlightened.

‘Every time I feel strong in loneliness’

'I finally see all my dreams come to fruition'

‘I finally soar and gaze with my heart without fear’

…

The warm yet powerful lyrics allow those who are working hard but have not succeeded yet to feel the power of hope.

It has allowed many people who were at a low point to regain their love for life, their pursuit of ideals, and their courage when encountering difficulties and setbacks.

Many people have praised the lyrics of these songs to the sky, and music critics have also made very good comments on the lyrics of these songs.

Now, many radical fans have begun to criticize other singers' lyrics. Songs from "The Wind Rises" and Ye Fan's first two albums have also been affected.

They felt that the other songs written by Ye Fan were a waste of talent, and they should write more songs with style and connotation in both lyrics and music, such as "The Wind Rises", "Blue Lotus", and "Invisible Wings".

This statement must have caused dissatisfaction among Ye Fan's other fans. They all listen to Ye Fan's songs, so why do they despise him?

There are also many fans who like the passionate rock style of "Lies" and "Butterfly". This kind of passionate rock songs are the target of many radical and literary young people.

Because of this matter, the two sides started to argue. The main battlefields at the beginning were in the print media and offline. Yes, you read it right, there are also offline.

The print media is definitely the home of literary and artistic young people. Rock talkers can't say more than them. Most of what rock fans say will not be published by reporters in newspapers.

However, everyone should know how fierce rock fans are. If you can't talk it out with words, if you argue offline, it will be really serious.

Soon, this situation reached the scope of the rock and literary circles, and even spread to Hong Kong and Taiwan. The reporters and people who watched it looked excited, and they were really watching the excitement without fear of trouble.

This fire also burned singers from the two circles, such as Pu Shu and Xu Wei.

Pu Shu is in the same company as Ye Fan, and reporters know that he has a good relationship with Ye Fan. Xu Wei has a new album "Elsewhere" released in April, and has gained a certain reputation in the music world, and the response in the rock circle is... Bigger.

Reporters approached them for interviews, and under pressure, the two stood up and said a few words, but they were very restrained and did not attack the literary and art circles.

On the other side, the reporters thought of Gao Dagen and wanted him to express his views. After all, he is considered one of the representatives of literary and artistic music.

However, Gao Dajin didn't dare to speak out at this time. His base had rebelled a lot. In addition, Ye Fan's reputation and status in the music industry had already surpassed him by a few blocks, and there were fewer companies and singers looking for him to cooperate. a lot of.

Therefore, in order to maintain his final dignity, Xiao Dajin hid whenever he could. If he couldn't hide, he would use his own characteristics and consider his left and right sides.

It wasn't until his fans spoke up and asked him to say a few words for the literary and art circles that Gao Dajin couldn't hide anymore and came out to praise Ye Fan's songs against his will, and the reporters gave up.

Liu Huan was naturally affected, because his "Start Over" pulled Ye Fan's "Stubborn" down. How could reporters let such an obvious target pass?

Fortunately, Liu Huan is an experienced artist with a very high emotional intelligence. He said that he has listened to all of Ye Fan's albums and he feels that Ye Fan is not a singer with a single style.

The scope of creation is relatively wide, as can be seen from Ye Fan's previous albums, which include pop and rock, as well as literary and inspirational styles. The quality is very high, just to cover a wider audience.
