China!

The home of music!

After hearing what the chief judge said, the entire audience stood up instantly.

Warm applause broke out, filling the entire Metropolitan Opera House like thunder.

Many people looked at the members of the Chinese music delegation who were taking the stage to receive awards one after another with complicated eyes.

More than 20 days ago, how could they have imagined that China would win the title of "Hometown of Music"? Don't even think about it, I don't even have such an idea!

After all, in the past, China could not even make it into the top ten in the exchange competition at the International Music Hall Night.

But this time, he almost swept the entire competition.

"Congratulations to China."

"Congratulations to China."

"Deserved."

"..."

Along with many praises, the members of the Chinese music delegation who took the stage had tears in their eyes. Zhao Shu was a little better. He tried not to lose his composure on stage, kept a smile on his face, and tried hard to manage his expression. But the other members were so excited that they burst into tears and couldn't restrain their bodies from shaking.

This is the world’s top music festival!

How could they have dared to think that they could stand on this stage and receive the award?

The award he received was the final grand prize: the Music City Crown!

Center stage.

When the chairman of the judges handed over the trophy, Zhao Shu wanted Wang Mo, the great hero, to take the trophy, but Wang Mo pushed Zhao Shu up: "Mr. Zhao, come here."

"good!"

Zhao Shu knew that this was not the time to be humble. He took a deep breath, took the heavy golden trophy, and then raised his hands high, as if he was holding his life's faith.

At this moment, even though he tried hard to calm down his inner turmoil, his eyes were still red.

"How can one be so virtuous?"

"This life is enough."

Zhao Shu kept repeating several idioms in his heart and felt that his whole body was glowing.

And China and even the whole world are boiling.

China won the title of "Hometown of Music", although many people had already guessed this result before. But seeing Zhao Shu holding the trophy with their own eyes, the impact on everyone's hearts was still huge.

"China has created a miracle."

"Winning six of the eight major awards!"

"Oh my God! This music festival is so legendary."

"Suddenly I developed a strong interest in China."

"Who doesn't? This country has such a profound musical heritage, even more than all the countries in the West combined. Just this is enough to make me look sideways."

"Anyway, after a period of time, I must go to China to listen carefully to the music of this country. At that time, China had hundreds of musical instruments on display, but I only remembered the sounds of a few instruments."

"Still waiting for a while? No more! Book your flight now! Let's go!"

"..."

This is why every country strives for the title of "Home of Music".

Although it is just an honor, it will have a profound impact on billions of people in Blue Star, and will also have a huge promotion effect on the music industry of the country that won the award.

Coupled with the fact that in the next four years, half of the international music competitions will be held in China, and no less than one-third of all music competitions will have Chinese referees, these two points are enough to make Chinese music usher in a qualitative leap.

Accompanied by cheers and applause, after Zhao Shu stepped off the stage holding the trophy, the night at the International Music Hall officially came to an end.

On the way back.

Zhao Shu couldn't put it down holding the "Hometown of Music" trophy, his eyes full of intoxication.

But soon, he reluctantly handed the trophy to others, then took out his cell phone and started making a call.

Wang Mo smiled and said: "Mr. Zhao, are you still busy tonight?"

Zhao Shu dialed the number and said excitedly: "Of course, not only are we very busy tonight, I estimate that we will be very busy for a long time in the future. I'm afraid you don't know the honorary meeting of the 'Hometown of Music'" What will it bring to China! Music competitions, referees, international performances, domestic music teams, music industry, musical instrument industry, domestic tourism... almost all walks of life will usher in a big explosion. If these things are not done in advance, then It will definitely give foreigners a bad impression. So I must immediately communicate with the relevant domestic departments to let them make preparations."

Wang Mo smiled and said: "I can't help with this matter."

Zhao Shu: "Where are you needed? You just need to come out and take care of things at critical moments. What's more, based on your character, I asked you to be the director of the music department. Are you willing to go?" "

Wang Mo chuckled: "I won't go."

Zhao Shu: "Isn't that enough? What's more, I don't know yet, you have a lot of things going on. Just the "Journey to the West" you performed on the stage will probably keep you busy for a while. Look at it now, Media and netizens around the world are waiting for your Eastern fairy tale to identify whether it is a mule or a horse."

Speaking of which.

Zhao Shu's expression became serious: "Xiao Wang, what kind of mythical story is your "Journey to the West"? People all over the world are staring at it now, so you have to be careful. Don't lose the face of the Chinese people, Especially when it comes to the Chinese mythology system, we must be very careful and not just casual. Otherwise, if we write something specious when the time comes, not only will the Chinese people have opinions, but it will also cause foreign people to misunderstand our mythological heritage and beliefs."

The mythological system of a country and nation is the most sacred and cannot be tarnished.

If Wang Mo was an ordinary Internet author and just wrote some novels about gods and demons, it would be harmless. But now it has risen to the level of international attention, and the mythological system, combat power, inheritance, and even clothing, magic weapons, words and deeds, etc. all need to be carefully considered.

Zhao Shu knew very well that China's mythological system was very vast, and he had a headache just thinking about it, so he warned Wang Mo.

Wang Mo raised his eyebrows: "Don't worry."

That's "Journey to the West"!

That is one of the four great Chinese classics!

The content in it is so rich and vast that it is not an exaggeration to say that it covers thousands of years of Chinese mythology and even cultural heritage.

Zhao Shu saw the confidence in Wang Mo's eyes and knew that this boy never spoke wild words, so he nodded: "Okay, then I will wait for your masterpiece. But after you write "Journey to the West", you'd better I’d better give it to Lao He and Lao Tang to have a look at it. Make sure it’s OK before publishing it.”

Wang Mo nodded and agreed: "Okay."

Although he has full confidence in "Journey to the West", Zhao Shu also has good intentions, and of course he will not refuse.

After returning to the hotel.

Yuan Xiong, Fu Hong and others immediately turned around and got busy.

Yuan Xiong didn't mention it, there was a lot of things to do. Just the construction and market development of Yunhai Media's overseas branches was enough to keep him distracted.

As Wang Mo's manager, Fu Hong has to deal with equally tedious follow-up work after Wang Mo has produced so much music and established good relationships with many small countries.

Wang Mo, on the other hand, was at ease again.

Although many people wanted to contact him, he did not answer anyone. Instead, he turned off his mobile phone, excused himself to sleep, and then lay on the bed, while silently chanting in his mind: "System, bring up the panel~~~"

The system instantly popped up the panel.

Wang Mo looked at his current reputation and saw that it had risen to more than 50 million.

And it is still rising rapidly at this moment.

Since he has so much reputation, he has nothing to worry about.

I immediately opened the system mall and quickly found "Journey to the West".

But the price is really not cheap, 10 million reputation!

If other books were sold at such high prices, Wang Mo would probably curse the system profiteers. But at this moment, he even felt that the price was very reasonable, even a bit cheap.

only.

"The "Journey to the West" given by the system is the original work. Although it is in vernacular, it may not be a problem for Chinese people who have gone through nine years of compulsory education to read it. But if it is translated into other languages ​​​​in this style, I am afraid that foreigners will not be able to understand it at all. Come. Let alone promote Chinese culture."

Wang Mo frowned and thought hard.

After a while.

Wang Mo asked a question: "System, can you translate "Journey to the West" into English and ensure its authenticity to the greatest extent?"

System: [Ten million reputation. 】

Damn it!

Now Wang Mo was not calm: "You just translated, but you want so much reputation? Can your conscience be good enough?"

System: [This system has no heart, so there is no need for the host to worry. In addition: This system is not just about translating, because there are big differences between Chinese classical texts and popular texts. Translating them into English is equivalent to rewriting a story of nearly a million words, and it also needs to ensure that two Points: First, maintain the authenticity of Chinese mythology. Second, ensure that foreign netizens have no difficulty in reading. 】

"Okay, ten million is ten million."

Wang Mo knew that what the system said was true. Although he was now proficient in English, he could not even translate the opening verses of "Journey to the West".

The difficulty is off the charts.

As Wang Mo's words fell.

Almost just blinking, the system once again displayed the words: [The reputation has been deducted, and the original book and English version of "Journey to the West" have been distributed to the host's backpack, please pay attention to check. 】

Um?

So fast?

Wang Mo thought it would take ten or eight days for the system to customize the English version, but it came out in the blink of an eye.

He sank into his mind and found that there were indeed two more books in his virtual backpack.

An original book.

An English version.

There was no need to read the original work, so he immediately opened the English version and started reading.

After just watching it for a few minutes, Wang Mo felt that 10 million reputations for the system to translate the English version was worth it.

Because the version translated by the system, not to mention 100% restoration, but at least 90% restoration of the taste of the original work, made Wang Mo not only very smooth to read, but also felt more story-telling.

Especially between the lines, the system also adds unique Western humor and writing habits, which makes it easier for Western readers to accept the story and become involved in it.

"Perfect!"

Wang Mo was so impressed that he even fell in love with the English version.

Because the English version is completely a modern and popular Journey to the West, it is more comfortable to read compared to many parts of the original work that are obscure and difficult to understand.

Even an outsider like him can't put it down, so Wang Mo believes that when the English version of "Journey to the West" is released, Western readers will quickly accept it.

Everything is ready.

All I owe is the east wind.

Wang Mo planned to code out both the original work and the English version as soon as he returned to China.

The day after the International Music Hall Night, Zhao Shu took members of the Chinese music delegation back to China. He was obviously too busy to stay here for a long time.

Wang Mo also decided to leave in three days.

During these three days, Wang Mo still did several things.

The first thing: partying with celebrities.

Today, Wang Mo has long become a fragrant presence in the eyes of celebrities. In particular, everyone learned from Kenneth that Wang Mo, the new music master, was not at all aloof, aloof and indifferent like other masters, but rather approachable.

So all the invitations like snowflakes fell in front of Wang Mo.

It was impossible for Wang Mo to attend them all, so he asked Kenneth to hold a grand banquet to make friends with these celebrities.

What a big shot in the newspaper industry.

What a steel king.

What Internet tycoon.

What Hollywood boss.

Anyway, he never refused and greeted each other with a smile.

These are all connections!

And he is the most top-notch person in the Blue Star business world today.

Wang Mo would only push it out if he was stupid.

After all, he is not like the big guys like Simon and Romando, who are unworldly.

Wang Mo only knew that after making friends with these celebrities, he would one day be able to use them.

Just like when these celebrities knew that Wang Mo was affiliated with Yunhai Media, which happened to have a branch in New York, they all said that they would take care of him to the best of their ability.

No matter whether the other party is telling the truth or not, as long as this news gets out, Yunhai Media's overseas work will be much smoother in the future, and no one will deliberately create difficulties or obstruct it.

The second thing: "Kung Fu" is released.

After more than a month of global release, "Kung Fu" has officially bid farewell to the big screen a few days ago. The international box office is set at US$125 million.

Although this box office is not particularly dazzling internationally, it still caused a lot of ripples.

After all, it is the first Chinese film to achieve a box office of over 100 million overseas.

What makes Yuan Xiong regretful is: "Ah Mo, if "Kung Fu" is delayed by one month in overseas release, it is estimated that the box office will increase by at least 20 to 30 million US dollars."

Wang Mo was puzzled: "Why?"

Yuan Xiong explained: "When "Kung Fu" was released overseas, you had no international reputation. But now you are famous all over the world and in the music industry. So if we focus on promoting you internationally, The screenwriter and producer of "Kung Fu" will definitely arouse the curiosity of many movie fans and then contribute to the box office."

Wang Mo smiled when he heard this: "It doesn't matter, the days ahead will be long."

He didn't even pay attention to the box office of a mere 20 to 30 million US dollars.

As he said, the future is bright.

Even if "Kung Fu" has an international box office of more than 100 million, it will not cause him any psychological fluctuations.

For Wang Mo, the release of "Kung Fu" opened the door to international theaters for him, which is the biggest gain from this movie release.

As for the box office, there is no difference between 100 million and 230 million.

Well, what's the next movie?

"The Wandering Earth"!

It's just that "The Wandering Earth" seems to be a bit difficult to swallow internationally.

It seems that I am ready to start planning movies suitable for the international market.

Think of this.

Wang Mo suddenly turned around and looked at Yuan Xiong: "Brother Xiong, try to open a film and television branch in Beautiful Country this year."

Yuan Xiong was stunned: "Film and television branch? Isn't it necessary?"

his impression.

All movies and TV shows produced by Yunhai Media are limited to the Chinese market, and the international market is almost zero.

Wang Mo nodded sincerely: "If necessary, I am going to start shooting the next movie after I finish this busy period. As for the market for the next movie, I will not only focus on China, but will focus on the whole world."

Yuan Xiong swallowed and finally digested this sentence.

He understood the meaning of this sentence.

After a pause, he said: "Are you too busy to come over?"

In the beginning, fairy tales went international, and now the overseas fairy tale department is just getting on the right track.

The result was immediately followed by Wang Mo playing a bunch of top-notch songs at the International Music Hall Night. So much music radiates around the world and requires various subsequent copyright treatments, so overseas music departments are currently being established urgently.

The key is also "Journey to the West" written by Wang Mo.

Unexpectedly, Wang Mo's "Journey to the West" hasn't even been written yet, and this guy is going to start an overseas film and television project again.

Every one of these things is a big deal.

Other companies may not complete one in three to five years, but Wang Mo has completed several at the same time.

Wang Mo chuckled: "Of course I'm busy, I just need to come up with the work, and the rest will be left to Brother Xiong and you guys."

He's right.

Just take out the work yourself, how easy it is.

What’s too busy?

Yuan Xiong opened his mouth and finally spread his hands: "Okay..."

It seems that he is recruiting more people to come to North America.

Otherwise, you will be exhausted.

Wang Mo, the plate is expanding too fast.

Except for the first two things.

The third most unexpected thing.

Wang Mo originally decided to leave New York on the fourth day.

But an unexpected phone call disrupted his plan.

On the third day, Simon called: "Mr. Wang Mo, when will you leave New York?"

Wang Mo: "Tomorrow."

Simon: "Are you so anxious?"

Wang Mo: "It's a big deal Simon, do you have anything to do?"

Simon: "It's like this. I discussed with Romando and Stephen and they are planning to go to China to settle down together for a while. Because this time you and Huaxia let us see the great music heritage of China, which opened our eyes to Therefore, we plan to go to China to study its music culture carefully to see if it can help improve our abilities. Even if we cannot improve our abilities, it can help us learn some Chinese national music so that we will not be ignorant in the future. "

Wang Mo asked repeatedly.

Only then did we confirm this: a bunch of music masters, as well as a bunch of world-class composers and performers are going to China.

Regarding this sudden news, he didn't recover for a long time.

Especially Simon is talking about settling down for a period of time.

settle down!

This means that these top music tycoons will live in China for at least half a year!

"Fuck!"

Wang Mo subconsciously uttered a curse word.

He can completely imagine what it would bring to China if such a group of world-class musicians went to China.

For the Chinese music industry, it is a huge wealth!

But Simon heard Wang Mo's "fuck" and said strangely: "Mr. Wang Mo, what did you say?"

Wang Mo groaned: "I'm talking about praising God!"

Simon: "I often hear Chinese netizens say this. Do all young Chinese people believe in God now?"

Wang Mo: "Ahem... maybe?"

then.

He quickly changed the subject: "Master Simon, if you and several other teachers are going to China, I can postpone the ticket and then go with you."

Simon: "Would it cause you any trouble?"

Wang Mo: "No, no."

Simon was overjoyed: "That's good. Let's discuss it here and give you a definite time in half an hour."

Wang Mo: "Okay."

Hang up the phone.

Wang Mo immediately dialed Zhao Shu's cell phone and told the matter.

Zhao Shu almost jumped up when he heard the news.

I asked several times in succession.

It should be noted that in the past, it was difficult for them to invite a pianist like Jiro Miyata to China even if they paid a lot of money and tried their best.

So after learning about this, he immediately said: "Xiao Wang, tell Mr. Simon and the others immediately. China will personally send a special plane to New York to pick them up and receive them with the highest standards of etiquette.

In addition, we will prepare all the food, clothing, housing and transportation, and will send a dedicated service team to solve their problems throughout the process. Please feel free to come. "

"good."

Wang Mo quickly conveyed this matter to Simon.

Simon was also pleasantly surprised and repeatedly praised the Chinese officials for their great-power demeanor.

Even many musicians who didn't want to go were ready to move after hearing such treatment.

Wang Mo guessed: It is estimated that China will abduct at least one-third of the world's top musicians in this wave.

As for whether the other party can stay in China for a long time after going to China, it depends on the ability of Zhao Shu and the China team. But thinking about it, it shouldn't be a big problem. In terms of how people behave, Huaxia ranks second, and no one dares to rank first. It is guaranteed to make these old guys live comfortably and enjoy themselves.

But as a result, his return to China will inevitably be delayed.

Because it would take at least a week to dispatch the special plane and prepare Simon and others.

In this case……

Wang Mo made up his mind and started coding.

Taking advantage of this time, he could write part of "Journey to the West".

After all, the original version and the English version combined are almost two million words. Even if he only needs to copy the words in his mind, it will take a long time.

He wrote the original version first.

After writing for a day, Wang Mo had coded out the first three chapters of "Journey to the West", which amounted to more than 20,000 words.

After all, you just need to copy it.

Therefore, writing more than 20,000 words a day is not difficult at all, and I can even do it with ease.

I am preparing to continue writing.

He suddenly remembered Zhao Shu's words: "Well, Mr. Zhao said that I would show Mr. He before publishing "Journey to the West". Since I agreed to him, I'd better show it to Mr. He first."

Think of this.

Wang Mo saved the first three chapters and sent them to He Zhixing's mailbox.

Chapter 1: Spiritual Roots and Breeding Sources Flow out of Mind and Practice to Live on the Great Path

Chapter 2: Enlightenment of the true and wonderful principles of Bodhi, severing demons, returning to the origin, and uniting with the soul

Chapter 3: Thousands of mountains all over the world are hiding in the Nine Netherworld and all ten categories are eliminated.

Then he sent a message to He Zhixing explaining the matter, and then continued to code. (End of chapter)
