This star doesn't work overtime

Because Liang Xi’s article questioning Wang Cheng on Weibo is still up, it is already the most popular among all articles questioning Wang Cheng, with tens of millions of views, more than one million speakers, supporting Wang Cheng and questioning Wang Cheng The two sides of the two parties were arguing in the comment area.

Therefore, Wen Yixiao ignored Liang Xi, but looked at Liu Shengjie.

Liang Xi was speechless for a moment, feeling Wen Yixiao's dislike and hostility toward him, years of experience in life immediately knew what this person was thinking, smiled wryly, and stopped talking.

Because, at this time, his heart was also shaken. After watching Wang Cheng's performance, he wanted to remove the article questioning Wang Cheng on Weibo several times, but before witnessing it with his own eyes, he still had many doubts and questions in his heart. So just keep it.

Liu Shengjie asked, "Is his subject still martial arts?"

Wen Yixiao shook her head: "Weapon!"

Liu Shengjie smiled wryly: "That's not the same! He confirmed the song recording time in the afternoon?"

Wen Yixiao nodded: "Well, it should still be his working hours, at four o'clock in the afternoon. Teacher, if you are asked to create a piece of work on martial arts every week for three consecutive weeks, can you do it?"

Liu Shengjie immediately shook his head: "I can't do it, I'm not a creative talent, I'm better at production. However, even if I'm asked to produce three works of the same type for three consecutive weeks, I may not be able to do it, If I insist on making, I will make the three works very similar!"

"I have never seen anyone like Wang Cheng who can create and produce the two works of Chinese Kung Fu and Fist of Fury for two consecutive weeks. Now I have to continue to create and produce the third work, so I don't really believe him. can do that."

Liang Xi also agreed: "Yes, Lao Liu is right, this is not something humans can do."

Wen Yixiao said seriously: "I believe he can do it."

Liu Shengjie asked curiously: "Why? Have you seen his works?"

Wen Yixiao shook her head: "No, but he is Wang Cheng, so I believe him."

Liu Shengjie was a little speechless, knowing that his disciple had completely fallen, that's why he answered the question so subjectively, and said immediately: "Okay, if we meet in the afternoon, let's see if I can chat with Wang Cheng! By the way, your What's the topic?"

Wen Yixiao: "Myth!"

Liu Shengjie and Liang Xi thought about it at the same time—a myth?

Liang Xi said in a low voice: "I have a well-created work, which fits well with the myth. If you want, I can join as a songwriter, and Lao Liu will be the producer. Wen Yixiao, you sing, let's sing together How about cooperation?"

Liu Shengjie looked at Wen Yixiao.

Wen Yixiao said softly: "Mr. Liang, can I have a look at the work first?"

Liang Xi nodded: "Of course, I wrote this two years ago when I was inspired to write it. I have been slowly refining it for the past two years. If I have inspiration, I will take it out and modify it. It is definitely my meticulous work. It may be Best work of my life!"

After speaking, Liang Xi took out his mobile phone, found a file from it, and tuned out the lyrics and music he wrote for Wen Yixiao and Liu Shengjie to read.

……

Li Zhixun knocked on the door, then opened it and walked into the hotel room.

In the room, Pei Zhuyan, Lisa, Ginny, and Lin Xi are discussing the plan for their first performance in China...

After seeing Li Zhixun walking in, the four of them all looked at the manager.

Li Zhixun looked at the four of them and said seriously: "I communicated with the Tomorrow Idol program team twice more, and their producer Liu Jiahui disagreed with our request according to our appearance specifications, and they only gave us 150 million Huaxia coins at most. Appearance fees. As for the number of appearances and the like, they must abide by the arrangement of the program group, and will not give us special arrangements."

Hearing the appearance fee of 150 million Huaxia coins, all four of them frowned slightly at the same time.

Their appearance fees for domestic performances start at 300 million Huaxia coins for a single person, 1000 million Huaxia coins for four people appearing together, and 600 million Huaxia coins for foreign performances, or about 300 million U.S. dollars. .

However, if they do their own concerts, they can earn more per show.

Therefore, they all frowned when they heard that the appearance fee figure given by the Tomorrow Idol program group was not enough for them alone.

Pei Zhuyan said dissatisfiedly: "Aren't they too dishonest?"

The other three nodded, their expressions were very dissatisfied.

Li Zhixun continued: "Yes, I also raised our dissatisfaction. However, they said that they gave other people very low performance fees. Wang Cheng only had 200 million performances. Others only had 10,000+ performances. Because their stage It is very popular, and has a cooperative relationship with the brokerage companies behind these trainees."

"We want to enter the Chinese market now, and going through this stage is definitely the best way. Their live broadcast yesterday had [-] million people watching the live broadcast, and then the video was launched on the client, and now the number of viewers is almost [-] million. It surpasses any program in our country."

The four fell silent, understanding what Li Zhixun meant.

Tomorrow's idol program group has the confidence to give a low price.

Because, the popularity of the program in China is absolutely overwhelming, and it has also opened up the situation in Asia.

This is very common in entertainment circles all over the world.

For some very popular shows, the price of inviting stars is very low, and even some super popular stages invite stars for a nominal fee, such as the Super Bowl in North America, the Spring Festival Gala in China, and the performance of the World Cup...

But the stars will fight for the opportunity to perform on these super stages, and they are willing to pay no money.

of course.

Tomorrow's Idol obviously cannot compare with these world-class stages.

However, the influence in China at this time is second only to the Spring Festival Gala, and it is far above any variety show in China.

Pei Zhuyan said: "Then we want 200 million, the same price as Wang Cheng!"

The other three also nodded immediately, they couldn't ask for their performance prices, they had to ask for the highest price, which showed their status and popularity.

Lisa: "That's right, we ask for the same price as Wang Cheng, isn't it too much?"

Ginny: "Based on the number of our fans in the world, as long as 200 million Huaxia coins, it is definitely a charity performance."

Lin Xi: "Wang Cheng is 200 million, we also want 200 million!"

Thinking of the embarrassment of being ignored by Wang Cheng twice in the live broadcast yesterday, they still couldn't help being annoyed. They didn't want the four of them to be paid less than Wang Cheng alone.

Li Zhixun looked at the four of them, shook his head slightly, and said helplessly: "I also asked for the same price as Wang Cheng. But Liu Jiahui refused. The rejection was very decisive and there was no room for negotiation. He only gave 150 million yuan. .Then, I discussed with the company. They thought it was necessary to make some concessions in the early stage in order to open up the market. They agreed to this price. What do you think?"

If it's other great artists, there is basically no room for resistance in front of the agency and the manager. The company has already made a decision, and the manager issued the company's decision. Then you, the artist star, can execute it. It's time to perform. I am not qualified to raise opinions, let alone object!

However, the four members of the Pink Age are different. Three of them are from abroad, so the contract they signed at the beginning was relatively loose. In addition, the four members are now the only international girl group in China, and their status is naturally higher. They are the largest group of hg group. The cash cow also has more autonomy.

That's why Li Zhixun asked the four of them for their opinions.

Otherwise, Li Zhixun directly informs them to prepare for the performance now...

The four of them listened to Li Zhixun's words, looked at each other, and felt a wave of contempt from the Tomorrow Idol program group...

In my opinion, they are not as good as Wang Cheng!

Although……

After watching Wang Cheng's live performance yesterday, they were also shocked by Wang Cheng's strength and stage charisma, and they did not have such a strong stage charisma.

However, they also have their own strong strength and unique style, and they are not necessarily weaker than Wang Cheng...

Moreover, they are an international women's group, and their international popularity and status must be far higher than Wang Cheng's.

Why are their prices lower than Wang Cheng?

All four were unconvinced.

However, he could only endure it.

Pei Zhuyan thought for a while and said, "Are you going to perform next week?"

Obviously, Pei Yanzhu has agreed to this price.

Li Zhixun said: "The performance time can be discussed again, there are at least five episodes of their live performances!"

Lisa whispered: "Then how about our performance in half a month? This is our first performance in Huaxia, so we can't be so hasty and anxious. The one-week preparation time may be a bit rushed. I want to arrange it specially for Huaxia fans. A dance, but also a carefully selected piece of music..."

Pei Zhuyan said: "The producer may be invited to remake a song! It's best to adapt it with a song that is popular in China, so as to attract Chinese audiences more."

Lin Xi's eyes lit up, and he said, "Can we buy the right to adapt Wang Cheng's works? His works are the most popular right now. If we can adapt his works and use them for performances, it will definitely attract many audiences. "

They suddenly came up with an idea. From a professional point of view, although they were dissatisfied with Wang Cheng, they recognized Wang Cheng's works very much. In addition, Wang Cheng's works were influential in China, so they chose Wang Cheng's works for Show, seems like the best option.

Lisa said excitedly: "I like the Jingwumen he released the first time. It is most suitable for dance performances. The recent works have too many Chinese elements, and we may not be able to master them..."

Pei Zhuyan was also deeply impressed by the dance music Jingwumen, nodded and said: "Okay, let's adapt this Jingwumen."

Li Zhixun said: "Then it's settled. I'll contact them about the copyright matter and see if it can be settled as soon as possible. Has the performance time been confirmed? After half a month?"

Pei Zhuyan nodded and confirmed: "Well, it will be half a month later!"

Li Zhixun also nodded affirmatively, and was about to leave to contact the program team to get Wang Cheng's song adaptation rights, when he suddenly remembered something and said, "That's right! Have you read the news on Huaxia Network?"

The four of them looked at Li Zhixun and shook their heads at the same time, expressing that they didn't read it, and they couldn't understand so many Chinese characters. Occasionally, they also read news from social platforms in China, Europe and the United States when they checked their mobile phones.

Li Zhixun said seriously: "Today is the day when tomorrow's idol contestants will draw the topic for the next performance. Wang Cheng has drawn weapons as the topic again. His performance next week will still focus on martial arts."

After listening to Li Zhixun's words, the four of them all widened their eyes at the same time, looking very shocked.

Lisa: "Is he doing the same title three weeks in a row?"

Pei Zhuyan frowned and said, "Didn't he ask to change the topic? Didn't I remember that in their program rules, can you choose again?"

Li Zhixun shook his head: "His style is that he never changes the subject, he gets what he gets."

All four felt that Wang Cheng was too capricious.

Lin Xi: "Then will he continue to create new works? Create new songs for the same topic for three consecutive weeks? This is crazy."

Pei Zhuyan said in a low voice: "In the history of pop music in the entire world, no one can do it. Unless there are a few top teams working together. However, according to the information, there is no team working with him at all. He just relies on himself... "

Li Zhixun also said with some emotion: "To be honest, I really want to see his next performance soon, and see how he will perform the topic of martial arts for the third time!"

The four of them were inexplicably depressed after hearing this.

The dissatisfaction in my heart about the 150 million appearance fee given to them by the program group dissipated a lot at this moment.

Such an awesome person only got 200 million appearance fees!

The four of them took 150 million together, which seems reasonable...

but……

What if he blows up next week?

After all, performing the same topic three times in a row, and creating and producing the work alone, the difficulty is simply beyond the sky.

The difficulty is beyond ordinary people's imagination. In the perception of the four of Pei Yanzhu, even the top international creative and production teams may have to empty out their previous inventory to complete such a task, and the quality of the work is sure. will be affected, and the quality level of subsequent works will inevitably decline.

It is basically impossible for Wang Cheng to do this alone. If he does it by force, it will definitely affect his level and state...

So, next time there is a possibility of acting badly!

Thinking of Wang Cheng's disregard for the equality of all beings, the four of them felt a little excited. It would definitely be a joy to see Wang Cheng's failure in the scene next time, and see that he can still be so calm by then. Is it ignoring everyone?

Lisa said with a smile: "We must go to the scene at that time, and sit in the nearest seat to watch his performance!"

Several people looked at each other and knew each other's thoughts.

Pei Yanzhu smiled and said, "Brother Zhixun, help us get a seat in the first row, we must look at the nearest seat!"

Li Zhixun did not refuse: "I will try!"

After finishing speaking, Li Zhixun was about to leave, but when he walked to the door, he turned around and said, "By the way, there is one more thing! This week, the flame youth girl from the island country will also come over, and I should watch Tomorrow's Idol with you at that time." Live performance. As far as I know, they also want to come to China to open up the market!"

"So, you are competitors."

Competitor?

The four of them became serious after hearing this.

Pei Zhuyan said seriously: "Okay, I will study them carefully. I heard that they are the most popular girl group in the island country, but they are more localized, and they are not in the same style as us."

Lisa: "I've seen their performance videos, and most of them are based on island animation."

Li Zhixun: "You guys should study it carefully, and I will contact the program team to confirm the date of the performance and the copyright of the song you want."

After speaking, Li Zhixun went out.

The four of Pei Zhuyan immediately played the first work Jingwumen released by Wang Cheng, and then contacted the composers who are familiar with Bangguo and the world to arrange and adapt the song, and re-write the lyrics...

………………

afternoon!

Wang Cheng came to the door of the recording studio on time at four o'clock.

The four of Lao Wang were already sitting there chatting.

At the same time, the two recording studios next door are already busy!

Seeing Wang Cheng and Huang Bin appear on time.

Lao Wang and the others immediately stood up to greet them.

Old Wang: "Wang Cheng, is the new song finished?"

Wang Cheng gave them a hum, and handed them a piece of paper, one for each, and said softly: "As usual, I will give you 10 minutes to get familiar with, and then start recording. This time the arrangement and soundtrack are better than before. It was easier both times, and I hope you guys can do it faster."

Lao Wang and the others quickly took their piece of paper and looked at it carefully.
