Chapter 355

Seeing their behavior, everyone at Berkley looked utterly bewildered.

By the way, aren't you being a bit too disrespectful to a music master?

Isn't that your school's teacher? Aren't you being far too disrespectful to your mentor?

But why do the eyes of these Dragon Country people looking at us seem filled with pity?

A moment later, a sorrowful suona sound suddenly echoed through the concert hall.

Accompanying the suona sound, loud wailing cries gradually rose up...

"Finally finished recording this song!"

Hua Chenyu listened carefully once more and nodded in satisfaction.

The agent sighed, feeling somewhat helpless as well.

If you were actually fluent in English, it would have been finished long ago, got it? Since he said it was done, he didn't say anything more.

Instead, Hua Chenyu said cheerfully.

"Even if I don't understand the English song, the vibe is just high!"

"That bumpkin Su Meng, let alone an English song, I bet he can't even recognize all 24 English letters!"

"Notify the company to start promotion; it goes live officially at midnight in three days!"

"Hahaha... this time, watch how I step on you to rise to the top!"

The agent looked at him expressionlessly, secretly complaining in his heart.

Do you even understand?

How can English letters possibly be 24?

It's clearly 28, got it?

"Oh my god, this piece is really... too perfect..."

Benedict said while wiping away tears, his voice choking with emotion.

"Hearing this piece, I thought of my mother far away in heaven; it felt like I was conversing with her."

"Teacher Wu, please convey my gratitude and respect to this master!"

"If there is an opportunity, I must personally visit this master!"

His behavior left many people stunned.

On the other hand, Wu Guangren, well-versed in both Chinese and foreign cultures, quickly figured it out.

According to Dragon Country customs, hearing such a piece of music out of the blue while still alive always feels inauspicious.

But for these Westerners, they focus heavily on matters before death, while matters after death are not as important to them.

Benedict, unaware of Dragon Country customs, was appreciating it purely from a musical perspective.

The melody of this piece is not complex, but Su Meng's suona playing technique is simply heaven-defying.

The soul-striking suona sound completely won over even Benedict, this world-renowned piano master.

Having vented his anger, Wu Guangren didn't mind showing off his magnanimity.

"Mr. Benedict, I will convey your message to Teacher Su."

"I apologize; in the Dragon Country, this piece is generally used at funerals to express longing for departed relatives. I hope Mr. Benedict does not mind us playing this piece today."

"Funeral?" Benedict froze instantly.

After bowing his head and thinking for a while, he suddenly looked up.

"Teacher Wu, may I ask if this master would be willing to hold a concert? Or does he accept commercial performances?"

Huh?

Wu Guangren was completely bewildered.

Your train of thought jumps way too fast, doesn't it?

Seeing his bewildered face, Benedict explained.

"My father is currently critically ill in bed."

"The doctor told me that perhaps next month he will leave me forever."

"If this master is willing, I would like to invite him to perform at my father's funeral to express my grief for my father."

"Please rest assured, master, I will pay sufficient remuneration!"

"Additionally, I still have some influence in the American music scene."

"If the master is willing to hold a concert, I will support him with all my might."

Holy crap!

Wu Guangren was completely numb.

What is going on with the brain circuits of these foreigners?

When your father dies, shouldn't the funeral be held in a church or cemetery, presided over by a priest?

Just imagining the scene of a priest, solemn-faced, making the sign of the cross and reciting the eulogy amidst the suona sounds of "The Peaceful Road to the West"...

"May God forgive you as you have forgiven others; man comes from dust and returns to dust; may your soul rest in peace in heaven, Amen..."

Such a jarring scene instantly made Wu Guangren shiver.

Is this the legendary fusion of Chinese and Western styles?

However... the concert mentioned by Benedict did make him take it seriously.

It seems Teacher Su, aside from that somewhat ambiguous music press conference last time, has not yet officially held a concert.

Benedict has great influence in the Western music industry; if he is willing to help Teacher Su...

At this thought, Wu Guangren also took it seriously.

"Mr. Benedict, I will contact Teacher Su immediately."

"Now, please enjoy a few more of Teacher Su's works!"

"Control room, play Teacher Su's—'Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix'!"

In the editing room, Su Meng was busy at the computer.

Although there were professional editors, Su Meng himself possessed professional-grade editing skills.

With his full power unleashed, even those professional editors couldn't help but praise him.

Xiang Zhiming watched curiously from the side and couldn't help but ask.

"Director Su, I didn't expect you to know editing as well?"

Su Meng's hands didn't stop; he just said casually.

"Nonsense. Isn't it normal for a director to know editing?"

Xiang Zhiming instantly shut down.

I am also a director, and a great one who has directed the Spring Festival Gala!

So why can't I edit?

"Ding-ling-ling~~~" The mobile phone on the table suddenly rang.

Su Meng casually picked up the phone, glanced at it, and was somewhat surprised.

"Teacher Wu, long time no see."

The voice of Wu Guangren came from the other end.

"Teacher Su, how is your TV drama filming going?"

Su Meng's decision to film this TV drama was impulsive; no news had leaked online.

However, Wu Guangren still knew about it.

After all, Su Meng is currently affiliated with the Yinyuexue Academy in the Imperial Capital, treating the school almost like his own private garden.

Some people for music-related matters were recruited from the Yinyuexue Academy.

The score for this 'Bright Sword' was the same.

While busy, Su Meng said casually.

"Progress is good; we are currently doing post-production editing. It will be completed with great merit in a few more days."

"Why did Teacher Wu think to ask about this TV drama?"

Wu Guangren's voice sounded somewhat dazed.

"Teacher Su, you might not believe what I'm about to say."
