Hega Yingliang's house is located in Denen Chofu. It is a pre-war building and is not very spacious.Of course, the interior has been remodeled by him.He bought it two years ago, and it looked dilapidated from the outside, and it paled in comparison with the magnificent houses nearby. Sachiko Tanasho, who was wearing a white suit, rang the door bell, and a maid in her fifties came out. "Ah, welcome!" The middle-aged woman bowed respectfully and saluted. "Good afternoon." Sachiko nodded lightly, "Is Yingliang here?" "At home, please come in." She entered the old main entrance and walked along the closely connected corridor to another newly built house.But this house has an area of ​​less than five pings, the outer wall is plastered with concrete, and there is a small window.

Before the maid approached, she turned on the automatic intercom switch installed there. "Miss Tiansuo is here." "Ask her to come here," replied a voice. At the end of the corridor is the door of the other house. After knocking on the door lightly, the maid opened the door. She slipped to Sachiko's side and didn't go in. She said, "Please come in!" Sachiko walked inside. This is He Yingliang's workshop.The tables and bookshelves placed inside are very ordinary, the difference is that the room is partitioned.The machine is placed in half of the inside, which is like the adjustment room of a radio studio, with all kinds of tools in a mess.He Yingliang was carrying those machines on his back, fiddling with tape recorders.

"Hello!" He He stopped what he was doing and stood up.The checkered fashionable shirt that was turned out of the collar of the sweater was bought by Sachiko for him a few days ago. "good afternoon!" Three or four fancy chairs sit next door to what looks like a conditioning room.There is also a simple table, which is somewhat like a conversation room in a broadcast studio. "Are you busy with work?" "No, it's okay." Hehe approached Sachiko and put his arms around her shoulders.Sachiko raised her face and let her fiancé kiss for a long time. This room cannot hear the sound of the outside at all, because this is a special workshop for Hega's audio production, and all walls are equipped with sound insulation equipment.

"It's inappropriate to affect your work." After the kiss, she took out a handkerchief from her bag and said while wiping the lipstick on the man's lips. "No, I'm taking a break too. Come, sit down, please." The chairs and tables are very chic in shape.Although the exterior of the house is simple, the interior decoration is very luxurious. Sachiko took out a cigarette and put it in her mouth, and Hehe quickly lit the lighter. "If you can relax at work, how about we go out together?" "Well, that's good. What's the matter?" "Father went to Jifeng Garden and said he was meeting with guests. In thirty minutes, please invite us to dinner."

"It's so rare!" He He said with a smile, "As long as someone treats me, I'll go no matter where." "That's great!" "But what time is it?" "It's four o'clock, do you have a date?" "No, I'm thinking about what to do after dinner, I haven't danced for a long time, how about going dancing!" "It's been a long time." "Please wait a moment, wait for me to work out a paragraph." He He returned to the tape recorder. "What is it?" "It's playing something just synthesized, just a part, do you want to hear it?"

"Okay, I must listen. What is the theme this time?" "I want to express people's outlook on life. For this reason, I gather all the energy of the sound. For example, at the climax of commuting, the noise of people scrambling to crowd the tram, the whistling of the wind, etc. The roar of the factory , it is not the sound directly from the machine, but the microphone is inserted deep into the ground next to the factory building, and the vibration of the ground is recorded together. I don’t know if it will be successful, please listen to it.” Hehe played the tape.There was a special sound, like a metal sound, and like a full belly.The composer and He Yingliang advocated creating a new kind of music without using the original medium of orchestral instruments.However, ordinary people can’t hear any melody or aesthetic feeling, only a messy sound, with the operation of the machine, the sound waves that change slowly, fast, strong, weak, long, and short. Here, No one is obsessed with music.Only the disordered and obscure sound stimulates the senses of the listener as if on purpose.

"How is it?" He Yingliang leaned against the machines juxtaposed like an engineer's laboratory, looked at Sachiko and asked. She seemed to be fascinated, and praised: "Beautiful! Sure to be a masterpiece!" He Yingliang and He Yingliang changed into gray suits that fitted them, and walked to the gate with Sachiko side by side.He was tall and broad-shouldered, and his suit looked very neat.Sachiko's car was waiting at the gate. "Go back!" she said to her driver, "I'll take Yingliang's car." The driver bowed and the car drove past her.

He Yingliang and He Yingliang walked into the garage, drove out a medium-sized car, and parked in front of Sachiko. He humbly opened the rear door and said "please". "Let me sit next to you." He Yingliang immediately opened the door next to the passenger seat. The street flashed before the two of them. "Yingliang, next time we go on a field trip together, shall we?" "Okay, the weather is so nice, I'm going too!" He He said while holding the steering wheel tightly and looking ahead. "I heard that Okutama is very beautiful, but, Yingliang, are you busy?"

"No, I will arrange a time. Next time I arrange it, I will invite you." "Then I'm so happy!" It took more than an hour for the car to reach the destination.Tokyo traffic has been paralyzed recently.There are too many traffic signals, and a small intersection cannot be passed without waiting for the signal to change four times.Trucks, buses, three-wheeled motorcycles, taxis, etc., all kinds of vehicles, lined up in long queues and crowded on the narrow road. He He's car managed to drive into the gate of Jifeng Garden.This mansion originally belonged to the duke has now become a guest house designated by the government.The spacious and quiet Belly Garden makes people think that it exists in the central area of ​​downtown Tokyo.

The car stopped at the gate.There are several signs of "XX Group Fellowship" in the foyer, and the table is covered with a white tablecloth, and the person in charge of the reception is sitting there.As soon as Sachiko got out of the car, all the men looked at her. "Welcome," said a waiter with a bow around his neck, and bowed to them. "Where is my father?" "At the Shonan Pavilion." "so far!" "Yes. I'm sorry." The waiter knew Sachiko, "Let me be your guide!" "No, I know the place." "Then I'm sorry."

Pass through the atrium of the main building, pass through several undulating slopes, and come to a high place on a slope.Looking around, you can have a panoramic view of hills, forests, bushes, clear springs, ancient five-storied pagodas, etc. "Yingliang," Sachiko took Hehe's arm. The two walked down the quiet path. The guests strolling in the garden could not help turning their heads when they met them, staring at Sachiko who was dressed in a chic dress.Gradually night began to fall. Shonan-tei is located on a hill slope in the vast garden.It takes quite a walk to get there.On the way, you have to pass by pools and ancient pagodas.Foreign guests come and go for a walk in the garden.It was almost dusk, and the silver lights were already on.The wide lawn is illuminated brilliantly. Shonan Pavilion is a tea room building.When he came to a small gate, Sachiko said, "Wait here for a while, I will report to Dad." Not long after Sachiko went in, she ran out with a big smile on her face. "The guests just left, and Dad is waiting for us!" "Really." He He followed behind Sachiko, walking along Shiyong Road.In a drawing room with four and a half seats, the old gentleman was drinking with two maids.Former minister Shigeki Tasho is now the manager of two companies and the director of countless companies. Tian Suo Shigeki has silver hair and a pair of matching rimless glasses on his dignified face.His face often appears in newspapers and magazines. He looks fatter than in the photos, and his complexion is better than expected. "Father!" Sachiko yelled from the yard, "The two of us came together." Tiansuo Shigexi's eyes shot at Hega Yingliang behind his daughter. "Oh, come here." "Hi, excuse me." He Yingliang bowed. The two took off their shoes together, and the maid immediately bent down to tidy up the shoes. "What do you use?" the maid asked Tian Suo Chongxi. "What do you want to eat? I've already used it." "I'm already hungry, I can do anything, Yingliang, how about you?" "me too." Tian Suoshige smiled happily and said, "Order whatever you want!" "How about the barbecue? Yingliang!" "OK." "Then, come to the barbecue. Drinks! Yingliang likes Scotch whiskey, I'll have a cocktail." "Remember it." The maid backed out. "I've wanted to visit you for a long time." He He Yingliang put his hands on the mat and bowed his head to Tian Suo Chongxi. "Where, where." Tian Suozhongxi narrowed his eyes behind the glasses, "I wanted to see you a long time ago, but there are always people coming, and I can't get away. Today is just right, come, sit here." Tian Suo's eyes showed a look of scrutinizing his son-in-law. "Father, who is today's guest?" "Well, today? A politician, too." "A politician again! Politics is expensive, so boring. Why don't you save money and build a new house for us!" Sachiko said bluntly, coquettishly with her father. "The meal is ready." The maid knelt by the partition and said. "Come on, take it over there!" Tian Suoxi said. "Dad, haven't you used it?" "Well, I won't eat the meal, I'll have a drink with you guys. Don't treat me as a superfluous person from now on!" "Oh, that's not what I meant." Zuo Zhizi shrugged and looked at He Yingliang. The three walked out of the living room, and next door was a large doma (in a Japanese-style room, the floor is not laid, and the ground is the ground).There is a hearth in the middle, and the charcoal fire is burning fiercely, and skewers of beef and pork are grilled on the fire.The two maids were busy on the sidelines.The smoke billowed straight into the ceiling. "It smells so good!" The three of them sat down around the hearth. "He He Jun!" "yes!" "Cheers!" The three raised their glasses.Tasho Shigeki's cup is filled with Japanese sake. "He He Jun!" "yes!" "How is the work progressing?" "It's going on step by step." "Father," Sachiko interjected, "Yingliang is working hard. When I went to invite him, he was working." "Where, I'm experimenting with a new song." "Electronic music, I don't quite understand: let me visit your workshop later." "welcome." "Dad is completely tone-deaf, and he never goes to a concert when he is invited. Even if he listens to electronic music, it must be inexplicable." "If you want to say it's inexplicable, I read an article commenting on your music in the newspaper a few days ago, and that's really inexplicable." "It was written by Guan Chuan." Sachiko explained. "Guan Chuan and Ying Liang set up a 'new group' organization, which is full of young people, and they want to launch a new literary movement." "That's right. Is that review a compliment or a criticism?" "It seems to be demoting." He He replied while chewing the barbecue on the skewer, "Guan Chuan is a spicy young critic. Recently, he has grown up very fast. Acting. No matter if you are a senior or not, you will be relegated to the bottom regardless of sensibilities. Therefore, it is quite valued by the public opinion circle. I think the comment this time is also Guan Chuan's performance. That is to say, he intends to let others see his own Friends are also ruthless.” Tian Suozhong listened with a smile on his face. "Well, that's right." He nodded. "There are similar situations in the political world. All walks of life are similar." "After all, we are all human! However, I always feel that artists may be more prominent." "I don't know much about artists. I'm afraid they all have their own merits." The former minister expressed his generosity. "Hehe-kun," Tian Suo Shigeki turned his chubby face to the musician, "Is there something about your going to America?" "Ah, basically we have an idea." "Can you leave in November?" "There seems to be no problem." "There are a lot of things to do, and it will get busy." "Yes. Because there's always some preparation. There's a guy in America named George McCray who, like me, keeps in touch with musicians from all over the world. In that sense, he's a central figure in America." "I see!" "He and I have been in touch. The so-called concert over there is held on a clapper stage in New York. My recital has been decided to be held there, and I must compose at least ten pieces. Now, I We are doing our best to prepare.” "What will happen if you are appreciated there?" "Of course it will be recorded on the record company over there. If I can hold a recital in a famous theater in the United States, it will be highly regarded by top critics. If it goes well, it will also win worldwide evaluation." "Okay, let's work harder." Tian Suo Shigeki encouraged his future son-in-law and said, "I will try my best to help you." "Father, I want to ask you too." Sachiko begged. "Okay, I still have to attend a meeting," Tian Suo Shigeki said, looking at his watch, "I'm excused." "Really?" The two young men got up and sent the old man to the gate of the pavilion. "please take care." "Are you going anywhere else today?" "Yes, we have quite a few arrangements." "Really, is it going to be very late?" There was a kind look in his eyes. "No, I'll be home around ten o'clock..." ——Out of Jifeng Garden, the two ran towards Akasaka. There are not too many customers in the nightclub.There's a concert happening right now.There were three Filipinos standing in front of the microphone, singing and dancing to the beat. Afterwards, the hall was brightly lit and the band played dance music. Hega extended his hand to Sachiko and walked into the hall.The tune is a fast-paced rumba.They held hands and danced lightly.Sachiko looked at Kazuki with a smile.When their bodies were close together, she whispered in He He's ear: "How happy I am!"
