Chapter 40 Sometimes it is easier to die than to live...
This girl Ning Meng is very fast. Counting from the day Peng Chen gave her the lyrics, she finished recording the song "Green Tea" in less than a week, and even finished the post-production.
Before the official release, she first sent it to Peng Chen for an audition.
Peng Chen was filming on the set at the time, surrounded by a group of people, everyone said they wanted to hear it, so Peng Chen first asked Ning Meng for his opinion: [Can I release it to listen to it with the people on the set? ]
Ning Meng: [Let it go, anyway, I will release this new song later. Besides, things like songs are meant to be sung for people to listen to. 】
With the consent of the singer, Peng Chen boldly clicked on the external playback button. Of course, in order to avoid the song being leaked in advance, she also played it to a few crew members with good relationships around her, such as the director, and Xu Weichen and Shi Jian.
The prelude sounded quickly, and the melody was clear and lively. After the prelude was over, Ning Meng's familiar voice sounded along with the music:
【The green color is light and bitter.
If you like to drink or not, you must choose me because I clear the
heat and quench
my thirst. I come from the silent mountains and rivers, I come from the wild desert , and I am a customer in a spinning cup ... I am green tea . Green is my true color . I am green tea . How outstanding is it if I am not green? I am green tea , the greener I am, the happier I am ... Thousands of people slander me and I will pay for it all. A million people bully me and humiliate me , I said what do you know when you are young]
The director on the side: "..."
Xu Weichen and Shi Jian on the side: "..."
Peng Chen: "...What's wrong? Doesn't it sound good?"
Director: "It sounds good, but the lyrics are a bit magical and too brainwashing .My mind is full of the phrase 'I am green tea, the greener I am, the happier I am'..."
Xu Weichen: "There is nothing wrong with this lyrics, after all, as the saying goes, if you want to live well, you have to have some green on your head !" The
director glanced at him, and said angrily: "Then do you have green on your head?"
Xu Weichen: "I think, isn't there a chance if you are single?"
Director: "..."
Seeing that the topic is about to come to an end Some strange place turned around, and Peng Chen silently turned the topic back: "So it sounds good, right?"
Several people said in unison: "It sounds so good."
Ning Meng was at around 8 o'clock in the evening . When this new song was released online, @彭晨 was also included in the publicity.
[The new song "Green Tea" sounds! Composer: Ning Meng. Lyricist: Peng Chen@彭晨. 】
Jiang Siyan's company's main artists are all actors, and there are not many singers. Ning Meng is one of the most famous singers, with nearly 30 million Weibo fans. So when she mentioned the new song, the fans cheered for joy at first, but when they saw the title of the song, and then saw Peng Chen @ on Ning Meng's Weibo, the fans' reaction became subtle in an instant.
[Peng Chen? Is it the Peng Chen I know? ]
[Good guy, I'm direct good guy...]
[So this is a green tea song? ]
[It's time to show off my screenshot @zero, come and see, your favorite rapper singer is releasing a new song with Big Lemon! 】
……
Ning Meng released new songs before. Although the number of retweets and comments has always been considerable, there is no song that has the popularity of "Green Tea". Almost half an hour after the new song was released, it was already on the top of the trending searches on the Internet, and the number of topics on Weibo square directly exceeded 100 million views, and the number of discussions exceeded one million. You must know that this is almost only the top-tier treatment.
Anyway, Ning Meng had never enjoyed such treatment before.
Moreover, various adaptations and creations of the song "Green Tea" soon appeared on the Internet. There is a cartoon version of "Green Tea", a supernatural version of "Green Tea", and the most talked about is the zero version of "Green Tea".
When zero first debuted, he liked to dye his hair, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue, purple, any color. For a while, I was obsessed with dyeing green, and there are also dark green and green. Some netizens edited the video of zero dancing with green hair dyed before, and paired it with the magical and brainwashing song "Green Tea". Even the director, who never pays much attention to entertainment gossip, couldn't help asking Peng Chen when he was filming that day: "What's the matter with you and Zero? Why do they say that it's really too bad for Zero to meet you?" Peng Chen: "... It's a long story." The director continued to be interested: "Let's make a long story short." Peng Chen: "I made a bet with zero, and he lost, and now he is teased and joked by netizens every day." The director touches Chin: "Why are you so overwhelmed that you want to bet with you? Then he died unjustly!" Peng Chen: "..." What nonsense, director! Ning Meng was actually a little worried that Zero would mind at first, but she didn't feel relieved until she encountered Zero humming "Green Tea" when she went to the bathroom one time. I thought: Sure enough, people with big hearts will be happier. What Ning Meng didn't know was that Zero really didn't have a big heart, he just listened too much and was brainwashed unconsciously.
After all, when you go to the toilet, ride in the car, watch TV, watch short videos...you will hear the same song every day, and you will hum its melody unconsciously.
Ning Meng's song is really very popular. Anyway, during this period of time, it was ranked in the top few music charts. The host of the show also asked her to sing this song by name.
Peng Chen seldom listened to it, and only asked people to put this song as a BGM in the "Green Tea Princess" milk tea shop, and the single was repeated every day. The clerks all said: Listening to "Green Tea" and making green tea really refreshed and refreshed my mind. My mother no longer has to worry about me falling asleep at work!
The song of green tea is progressing like a raging fire on the Internet, and the filming of the Little Princess crew is also progressing smoothly.
The estimated shooting time of the crew is 4-5 months, and now the shooting has almost entered 2 months, so the scenes of the first stage are considered to be over.
The scenes in the first stage mainly focus on the daily life of Peng Chen and Shi Jian’s sisters and the love scenes between Peng Chen and Xu Weichen. In the second stage, the scenes are no longer just about the love between children, and the script is more inclines to family and country feelings.
The confrontation between the Wen Dynasty and the Wu Dynasty has always existed, and it exploded in the later stage. The Wu Dynasty relied on its high force and strong combat effectiveness, and wanted to annex the Wen Dynasty. However, the Wen Dynasty was led by the princess Shi Jian during this period. It is no longer the country that emphasized civility over military in the past. They have also trained their own team and have the capital to compete with the Wu Dynasty.
Two countries with different positions are on the verge of war.
But Peng Chen and Xu Weichen, who were caught in the middle, were caught in a dilemma.
In the scene filmed that day, the wife of the monarch of Wu Kingdom "invited" Peng Chen into the harem under the pretext of admiring flowers, and then used Peng Chen and the child in her belly to force Xu Weichen to send troops to attack Wen Dynasty.
Before this, the emperor of the Wu Dynasty had hinted to Xu Weichen many times, both openly and secretly, that he hoped that he would send troops, but Xu Weichen either excused his illness or pretended to be stupid, and perfunctory time and time again.
Now it's completely torn apart.
Zhang He played the role of the emperor of the Wu Dynasty. His words were full of majesty, but he also showed the emperor's suspicion and ruthlessness: "Wu An, you have repeatedly refused to lead troops to attack the Wen Dynasty. Could it be that you have forgotten your identity? When and where, you remember, you will always be the general of my Wu Dynasty, and your surname is not Wen."
Xu Weichen lowered his head: "I dare not."
Zhang He took a deep look at Xu Weichen, and changed his affectionate tone: " I know that you have feelings for Princess Wenchao, and I am not that arrogant and unreasonable person. Just send troops with peace of mind. Princess Wenchao stays in my harem, and no one will hurt her and the child in her belly. This point You can rest assured."
Xu Weichen was silent for a while, and said in a low voice: "I want to see my wife."
Zhang He waved his hands, and soon the imperial eunuch came up to lead Xu Weichen to the outside.
Once this scene is over, it will be Peng Chen and Xu Weichen's rivalry scene.
At this time, Peng Chen had just found out that she was pregnant for less than a month, so she could not see any signs of pregnancy from her appearance, but since she knew she was pregnant, her whole temperament became much calmer than before. Nimble and brisk, as if she was about to jump up in the next second, but now she really looks like a lady of a big family, following behind the maid step by step, walking towards Xu Weichen in the pavilion.
Xu Weichen watched her approach step by step, and she also raised her eyes to look at Xu Weichen, obviously without saying a word, but this look seemed to contain a thousand words.
After the two looked at each other for a while, Peng Chen suddenly smiled at Xu Weichen. Seeing her smile, Xu Weichen's eyes turned red instantly.
When Peng Chen walked over, the eunuchs and maids behind them automatically exited the pavilion, leaving this private space for the young couple.
Peng Chen was about to sit down on the stone bench beside Xu Weichen, Xu Weichen stopped her lightly, then turned his head and told the maid outside the pavilion: "Go and get a cushion." The
maid took the order and went, Peng Chen's face The smile deepened a little: "Where is it so particular?"
Xu Weichen hid the emotion in his eyes, and then said softly: "Shi Beneng is cool, Madam is pregnant now, you should be careful everywhere."
Peng Chen nodded: "What the general said is true.
" , The maid also offered the mat. Xu Weichen took it, carefully arranged the cushions, and then helped Peng Chen to sit down. There are eyes everywhere in this palace, and ears are everywhere around. It is said that they can talk, but the husband and wife can talk about it in private.
So the couple just sat and talked about trivial matters.
Finally, a eunuch came up to urge him, saying that the monarch wanted to summon him, so Xu Weichen got up and followed the eunuch out. After walking two steps, he looked back at Peng Chen: "Madam, is there anything else you want to tell me?"
Peng Chen still smiled, and said very slowly: "There is only one sentence, swords have no eyes, and I hope the general will take good care of you. "
...
After the filming of this scene, no one spoke for a while.
Especially Xu Weichen, who was almost depressed by the plot, immersed in the drama for a long time and couldn't get out. A fool who is so optimistic on weekdays will keep feeling: "...It's too miserable, so miserable, and this couple is too miserable. The dog emperor of the Wu Dynasty is really vicious, how can he let General Wu'an go? As for the attack on the Wen Dynasty, if you want to fight, you should choose another person to fight! It’s simply shameless."
Peng Chen: "...he did it on purpose!"
Xu Weichen: "Why?"
Peng Chen: "The emperor's suspicion I'm afraid that General Wu'an will rebel against the Wen Dynasty in the future. After all, General Wu'an married the princess of the Wen Dynasty, and the couple has been very affectionate over the years, and the king of the Wu Dynasty has seen it. He was afraid of General Wu'an, so he He came up with this plan that kills two birds with one stone. If General Wu An agrees, first of all, there will be a rift between him and Princess Wen Dynasty, and second, if General Wu An really has the blood of Wen Dynasty people on his hands, it will be impossible to rebel against Wen Dynasty again. In the future, he will have no worries at all."
Xu Weichen didn't speak for a while, and it took a while before he said: "I'm sick! Fortunately, I didn't live in that kind of dynasty. It's suffocating to think about it."
Peng Chen looked up at the void, without saying a word.
Xu Weichen: "You said why didn't the little Princess Wenchao persuade General Wu An not to go? Her last line seemed to make a decision for General Wu An, and even encouraged him to go."
Peng Chen: "Because I can't bear it I know General Wu An’s embarrassment, so I can’t bear to force him again. And when the two armies are fighting, even if General Wu An does not go in the end, it is another general. In terms of face, General Wu An might leave her queen mother and eldest sister alive, at least...will leave them with a whole body, but if it was replaced by someone else, the consequences would be even more unimaginable. You know that in ancient times, on the battlefield How miserable is it for women? Sometimes death is the easiest thing to do, much easier than living."
Xu Weichen listened, and couldn't help but look at Peng Chen suspiciously: "...Sister, why do I think you don't It seems like you have figured out the script thoroughly, as if you have experienced that fucking era?" Peng Chen stretched his waist and said with a smile: "Yes, I have indeed experienced it! I don't know the dynasty that is more fucking than the one in the script. I have experienced it. So these are nothing to me." When
she said it so lightly, Xu Weichen didn't believe it! Of course, normal people wouldn't believe it either. After all, who would believe in such a thing as wearing a book!
So Xu Weichen didn't continue to talk about this topic, but asked casually: "Sister, you said that if you really lived in that era, you really became that little princess who was married, and now you are being coerced into being a princess." Hostage, and then others will force your man to go to the battlefield to fight your family to the death, what would you do if it were you? Did you just commit suicide?"
"Suicide? Are you kidding me!" Peng Chen used to look at the fool Looking at Xu Weichen, he said, "I'm probably going to poison their whole family!"
Xu Weichen: "... ???"
