The cross-border king of entertainment

Chapter 138 0138, Asking for Help from Chen Cheng
Every July, the Magic City has passed the unique rainy season in the south. It has not yet entered the midsummer, and the climate is suitable. The most beautiful season.

Today is the day when the summer vacation of the Modu Conservatory of Music begins, and it is also the day when the final exam report card is released.

"It's okay, it's okay, I only failed one subject, it scared me to death."

After Xia Dachuan saw the report card, he let out a long sigh of relief.

Li Junyi said with a smile that was not a smile: "Is that a celebration, and treat us to a big meal?"

Xia Dachuan chuckled, and said, "If you want to invite, it should be Tianpeng's invitation. His first EP sold more than [-] on the first day."

Xiao Tianpeng also said very straightforwardly: "No problem, Yipinfang will start at noon, but..." Glancing at them, he continued: "When did you buy your tickets to go home?"

Xia Dachuan said: "I bought it in the afternoon."

Li Junyi followed and said, "Xiao Xiao and his school don't have a holiday until the day after tomorrow, so we bought tickets for the day after tomorrow."

At this time, the eyes of the three people all turned to Yunfeng.

however……

Yunfeng was drawing manga, because he was too absorbed, so he didn't hear the chatting content of several people, but suddenly felt a little strange, he stopped writing quickly, raised his head, and said: "Ah... what's wrong?"

Xia Dachuan explained: "Tianpeng's EP is very popular. I want to invite us to Yipinfang for lunch. I ask you, will it delay your return home?"

"Oh." Yunfeng replied without thinking: "Don't delay, I haven't decided on a day to go home yet."

In the past two days, Xianqi magazine is going to hold a celebration party, and he, the shareholder, is going there, so the return home will be postponed for a few days.

Xiao Tianpeng heard the words, and said to several people: "Then I will call to reserve a seat, and also, call your girlfriends."

He is very happy today. As a rookie group, the sales volume of the first EP exceeded [-] on the first day, which is an above-average result. He is willing to invite even ten meals, let alone one meal.

Zhanlan Music Group.

It was almost time to get off work, and Chen Cheng received a call from the president, asking him to come over.

"What will happen?"

Chen Cheng turned off the computer, got up and went to the president's office.

"Sit." The president looked very polite.

Chen Cheng guessed that there must be something for him to do.

After a moment of silence, the president asked, "Did you know that our company has received an order for the theme song of the movie "Tiger Rose"?"

Chen Cheng nodded and said, "I heard."

The president sighed and said, "The song has been returned."

Chen Cheng didn't answer.

This matter should be referred to the manager of the lyrics and music department. What's the use of asking him, the manager of the artist department?

He can't write songs.

and many more.

write songs.

not……

The president didn't turn a corner, and said directly: "The lyrics and music department has changed six versions, and the other party is not satisfied, so I came to you because I want you to ask Yunfeng if there is any song, or if it is possible to write a song." head."

really.

Chen Cheng didn't rush to respond.

It stands to reason that this is a matter of the lyrics and music department, and he should not intervene, but now that the president is personally in charge, the nature is different.

After thinking for a few seconds, Chen Cheng asked, "Is the other party's request too high?"

The president smiled helplessly and said, "The producer is Guo Mingming."

Chen Cheng said with a strange expression: "It's him, so it's no wonder."

Guo Mingming is a well-known producer in the film industry, and he is famous for his extremely demanding requirements.

The order received by the company is not easy to complete.

It is said that Guo Mingming returned the soundtrack of the movie "Golden Years" to the production company eleven times.

It is estimated that the songwriters have changed their minds.

The president continued: "The three songwriters and two lyricists in our company have expressed that they are powerless."

Chen Cheng asked tentatively, "What about outsourcing?"

Hearing this, the president said in a deep voice, ""Tiger and Rose" is a big-budget movie with a famous director, famous screenwriter, and famous actors. It must be a hit when it is released. How could it be possible to outsource the theme song to other companies? We have never done it before. , Others have passed, then who will look for us after that.”

That's right.

As a subordinate, Chen Cheng couldn't refuse the leader, so he could only agree: "I'll ask, I can't guarantee if it will work or not."

The president said with a smile on his face: "Our company is also Yunfeng's partner. It should be no problem to ask him for a favor."

Chen Cheng thought: That's not necessarily the case.

On the other side, Yunfeng and the others had finished their lunch and returned to the dormitory from Yipinfang.

Just as he opened the door and entered, Yunfeng received a call from Chen Cheng.

"Xiaoyun, have you had lunch yet?"

"Just came back from eating."

……

Chen Cheng on the other end of the phone paused. He originally wanted to meet up for lunch and talk slowly, but now he didn't know how to continue.

Yunfeng thought it was a bad signal, and asked, "Brother Chen? What can you do with me?"

Chen Cheng thought that it was all about talking anyway, and it is better to speak quickly than to speak slowly, so he immediately said: "That's right, our company took over the list of the theme song of the movie "Tiger Rose", and the lyrics and music department changed five or six versions before and after. They were all returned, and there are only a few days left before the delivery time stated in the contract, and the president really has nothing to do, so he asked me to ask you if you have any songs in your hand."

This matter is not big or small.

Yunfeng was quite curious, who had such high requirements, and was still not satisfied after five or six revisions.

As for the songs, he has two songs in his hand. Tang Yu originally gave them to Tan Hui, but Tan Hui didn't want them. One is "Because of Love" from the previous life on the earth, and the other is "If You Love Me" written by him and composed by Tang Yu. forget".

However, the theme song of a movie must match the main theme of the movie in order to add color to the microfilm. Take "The Dartman" as an example, a martial arts movie can't use Jay Chou's "Mojito" as the theme song , it doesn't match at all.

Actually, this was also the reason why Chen Cheng hesitated after hearing what the president said.

A genius is not a god, do you really think that writing a song is as easy as eating?
In such a short period of time, it is not easy to write a song with specific requirements, and the other party is still extremely difficult to deal with Guo Mingming.

"What kind of movie is this "Tiger Rose"?"

"A love movie, adapted from a romance novel, about..."

……

Yunfeng listened patiently to Chen Cheng's speech.

This is a very common love story in movies and TV dramas. The male protagonist in college fell in love with the talented female protagonist at the same school at first sight. The campus love quietly grew, but after graduation, due to family reasons, the male lead went abroad for further studies. After returning to China five years later, he met that unforgettable woman again. The various grievances and grievances of the two families many years ago did not make the broken-up lovers continue to miss them. On the contrary, through various misunderstandings and reality tests, they got a better understanding of the feelings of mutual love over the years.

And Party A's request is very simple, just to be full of hope for love.

But often the simpler the request, the harder it is to achieve.

However, Yunfeng felt that the two songs "Because of Love" and "If You Forgot" both fit the theme of "Tiger Rose".

After Chen Cheng finished speaking, he paused and said, "Xiaoyun, it doesn't matter if there is no song."

Yunfeng smiled and said: "Brother Chen, you are lucky. I happen to have two love songs in my hand. As for whether I can make the theme song, I don't know."

Chen Cheng held the phone, opened his mouth wide, and froze.

This……

Really lucky?
Yunfeng asked a question he cared about: "Brother Chen, what's the price?"

Chen Cheng replied: "[-], this... The theme songs of movies and TV series are generally not very expensive. I read the contract and gave it this price."

Yunfeng asked again: "Is the copyright bought out?"

Chen Cheng replied: "Yes."

Yunfeng said bluntly: "The price is too low. My two songs, "Swords Like a Dream" and "Swordsman", are only for the commercial authorization of "The Dartman" online drama and movie, and they cost [-] yuan. "

Chen Cheng thought for a while, and said, "Well, I'll go to the president to discuss it. I'll tell you the specific result later."

"Okay." Yunfeng said again: "Brother Chen, let me send you two songs."

"Yes." Chen Cheng replied, "This is the best."

With the song, it will be much better to ask for the price.
