Chapter 113: Aunt Mei and Brother
In the training room of Huaxing Records, Anita Mui is practicing her singing pronunciation with the more well-known pronunciation teacher in front of her. The 19-year-old Anita Mui won the rookie singing contest as a non-professional singer, which is enough to surprise and admire many people, but it is still a little short of the requirements of a professional singer.
In the training room, one after another practiced pronunciation, hovering over the empty room, and the pattern of ups and downs was suddenly broken by the ticking sound of knocking outside the door.
The person who came in was none other than the person in charge of Huaxing Records.
Chen Shufen, the person in charge of Huaxing Records, asked the people in the training room to stop what they were doing, she looked at Anita Mui carefully, and saw that this girl was inferior to her image on the stage, and she could only say that she was beautiful. A little bit of disappointment.
Chen Shufen had a thoughtful face, Anita Mui's singing skills were good, she had already discussed with others to release a record for Anita Mui, and said: "I can hear that your voice should be good, but you may not have received formal training." There are some small problems when singing, and some belong to the wild road. Of course, these little faults can be corrected, and your feeling for music is still great. ”
"Compared to this year's runner-up and runner-up, your singing skills are quite good. Come to my office, I have something to tell you. ”
What else can Anita Mui say? She is still floating in the clouds, and she can only keep nodding.
The two went all the way, attracting the strange eyes of many staff, Anita Mui felt an inexplicable little nervousness in her heart, and she didn't know what she was going to talk about next?
When she arrived at the office, Chen Shufen encouraged Anita Mui again and said, "I also saw Miss Mei's performance in the singing contest. To be honest, you sing very well, our company has decided to tailor an album for you, hoping to make Miss Mei your popularity go up all of a sudden."
Anita Mui was very surprised and smiled sweetly, but the whole person looked very restrained, with closed feet and folded hands, she was completely different from her without any nervousness on the stage.
At this time, Anita Mui still had the childishness of virginity, the most popular curly long hair at that time, and delicate light clothes, which made Anita Mui reveal a kind of kindness and cuteness of the girl next door. At this time, Anita Mui was not glamorous at all, and she was not rebellious at all.
Chen Shufen smiled kindly: "Miss Mei don't need to be too nervous, this album is written by Huang Zhan and composed by Gu Jiahui, Miss Mei can practice her songs well, you can definitely handle it well, your strength is there, there is nothing to worry about." ”
The signed artists of Huaxing Records were selected for the first time through the rookie singing contest, which is indeed a very effective way, and the artists in the past were all found by Huaxing Records, starting from last year, wireless and Huaxing Records have cooperated together, and the selection of artists is even more so.
Anita Mui nodded weakly, full of worry, it stands to reason that she should be happy.
Chen Shufen continued to tell Anita Mui some things that need attention, of course Anita Mui could only nod, he didn't know many things, Chen Shufen was older than her mother, and it was impossible for her to say a word.
"Bang bang......" There was a knock on the door outside the office. Chen Shufen lowered her head, turned up her sleeves, leaked her watch, glanced at the time, and then prepared to get up.
Anita Mui got up like a master, and prepared to go out with Chen Shufen. The door was opened, and the person who came was Chen Liuquan.
Chen Liuquan is the person in charge of Huaxing Records like Chen Shufen, but the things he is responsible for are administrative, which is similar to our current salesman.
"Sister Fen, Mr. Xu sent a lyric, as for the signing of the contract, the people from Mingjia Film Company didn't say anything. Chen Liuquan held a document in his hand and spoke to Chen Shufen who came out of the house very cautiously.
Huaxing Records is a company owned by Wireless, and Xu Ziming is also a shareholder of Wireless. At the beginning, Shao Yifu specially told the two persons in charge, saying that if Xu Ziming attended the judges of the rookie singing competition, then the champion could directly sign a contract with Xu Ziming's Mingjia Film Company.
Chen Liuquan remembered Shao Yifu's explanation, it was less than a week before the end of the rookie singing contest, that is, today, he went to Mingjia Film Company, Xu Ziming he saw it, but Xu Ziming has always avoided talking about signing a contract, and Chen Liuquan came for nothing, but he sent a lyric to Anita Mui, the champion of the rookie singing contest.
Chen Shufen took the document from Chen Liuquan, and while preparing to see what lyrics were in this document bag, she asked, "Who is this lyric written for?"
Chen Liuquan said without hesitation: "Mr. Xu said that it was specially written for Miss Anita Mui. ”
There are also many surnames Xu in Hong Kong, and there are also many famous people in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, although Chen Liuquan said vaguely, Anita Mui already knew what the two were talking about, and he knew that the Mr. Xu in their mouth should be Xu Ziming. But she still wanted to be sure.
Anita Mui asked happily: "Is it Mr. Xu who wrote "God of Gamblers"?"
"God of Gamblers" is the hottest movie in Hong Kong today, Anita Mui has seen it, and she clearly understands that it was written by Xu Ziming, the one who gave herself a full score in the competition.
Chen Liuquan nodded and said, "It's Mr. Xu Ziming Xu." ”
She felt grateful to Xu Ziming in her heart, but she was also curious about why Xu Ziming wrote songs for herself.
After all, the current Anita Mui is just a new girl who has just debuted, compared to Xu Xiaofeng, Tan Yonglin and Xu Guanjie and other famous Hong Kong singers, it is really a lot worse, and I have never heard of Mr. Xu and they have too much intersection, the only thing Anita Mui knows is to listen to others, Xu Xiaofeng's "Season of the Wind" The lyrics of the song "The Season of the Wind" were written by Xu Ziming.
Chen Shufen picked up a few pieces of paper in the file bag, her eyes did not glance away, but re-examined Anita Mui in front of her, this little girl with curly long hair and delicate light makeup, is there still a relationship with Xu Ziming from a wealthy family in Hong Kong?
Chen Liuquan went out, and the two of them returned to the office again, Chen Shufen picked up a few pieces of paper and began to review them carefully, Anita Mui didn't dare to disturb, she stood behind her with her breath, very curious.
After Chen Shufen looked at it with satisfaction, she nodded, and then handed it to Anita Mui.
"How about you look at this song 'Woman Flower'? I think it's really good, and it might be better if this song were an album. ”
Anita Mui took the lyrics with a little skepticism and read them slowly:
I have a flower, planted in my heart, with buds waiting to be released.
Morning and twilight, I eagerly wait, someone with a heart to come to sleep!
I have a flower, the fragrance of the flowers is full of branches, who will really find the trace?
When the flowers don't bloom much, they can be folded straight and folded, and women are like flowers and dreams!
I have a flower that grows in my heart, and no one understands true love and true love.
The weeds everywhere have occupied the hillside, and the lonely fang appreciates the most heartache!
……
"How about this song, Mr. Xu wrote it specifically for you, it can be seen that Mr. Xu values you very much", Chen Shufen smiled brightly, and suddenly returned to the appearance of her youth, Xu Ziming's way made Chen Shufen, a person who is over half a hundred years old, a little springy.
The corners of Anita Mui's eyes were moist, and finally two lines of tears fell, she didn't care too much about Chen Shufen's words, she read it again, empathized, and remembered her tortuous life experience, she was like this woman's flower.
"It's okay" Chen Shufen pressed Mei Yanfang's shoulder with her left hand, and gently wiped her tears with her right hand.
Anita Mui looked at Chen Shufen with wide eyes, enjoying the other party's gentle movements, and hugged the other party as a relative.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
"You ......" Chen Liuquan directly pushed open the door of the void, feeling that he had seen something that he shouldn't see, and secretly blamed himself for being too Meng Lang, knowing that the two women should knock on the door inside.
Chen Shufen didn't seem to blame, and said with a smile: "What's the matter?"
Chen Liuquan scratched his head and said with a smile: "Just now, Mr. Xu asked someone to send the score of this song again. ”
Anita Mui broke free from Chen Shufen's arms very familiarly, Chen Shufen felt that this little girl was very clever, and her favorability increased a lot, so she got up and took the song sheet handed over by Chen Liuquan with one hand.
"It's much better, the lyrics are Mr. Xu's, and the tune is his, so it's much better than us figuring it out ourselves, and it saves a lot of trouble. Chen Shufen was a little happy, and now she has an impulse to ask the record artist to make up the tune and listen to how beautiful "Woman Flower" is.
Chen Shufen did what she said, and after sorting out the paper, she took Anita Mui to the recording room.
"Sister Fen, look at your happiness, did you eat honey? When the two went into the recording studio, a tall, tall, young and handsome man quipped to Chen Shufen.
Chen Shufen is self-acquainted, and immediately recognized who the beautiful and handsome man in front of her was, "Shizai, are you interested in listening to Miss Mei sing together." ”
This person named Shizai is Leslie Cheung, who will become famous in Hong Kong in the future. Leslie Cheung's family has a total of ten brothers and sisters, of which the third, fourth and ninth died when they were children, and Leslie Cheung ranked tenth, so he is also known as "Ten Boys".
When it comes to Leslie Cheung, the most memorable title is "brother", Leslie Cheung is a very affectionate person, and the personnel in the Hong Kong entertainment industry are excellent.
He has been a singer at Polygram Records for the past few years, and this year Leslie Cheung followed his mentor Li Xiaotian to Huaxing Records, and met manager Chen Shufen, so they would not hesitate to joke when they met each other.
Anita Mui was a little shy, and she didn't know who the handsome man in front of her was, Chen Shufen smiled: "That's Shizai, a very good person, and definitely a warm-hearted big brother for you." ”
Anita Mui chuckled, and rarely squeezed out a sentence, "Shizai, my name is Anita Mui, just call me Amei." ”
Leslie Cheung said very gentlemanly: "Sister, okay, Shizai will be your brother in the future." ”
Anita Mui hurriedly explained: "No, Shizai, I mean you will call me Amei in the future, it's Mei, not sister." Anita Mui, whose cheeks were slightly red, was a little happy in her heart, and suddenly felt that Leslie Cheung in front of her was indeed very good at talking and full of intimacy.
Leslie Cheung touched his nose, joy came out of his eyebrows, and felt that the simple girl in front of him was really frank and innocent, "Amei, you are the champion of the rookie singing contest, you are really powerful, and I am also a singer." ”
Anita Mui felt a little sorry for each other, stretched out her little hand, and said sincerely: "Ten boys." ”
"Amei" Leslie Cheung stretched out his hand and held Anita Mui in front of Chen Shufen.
In the recording room, after a brief introduction, a group of people also began to get busy, Chen Shufen directly passed the song score to the musician, and then sat aside to listen to the tune, Anita Mui and Leslie Cheung were bored and stood aside.
Leslie Cheung leaned over to Anita Mui, looked at the lyrics in Anita Mui's hand, and said curiously: "
I have a flower that grows in my heart, and no one understands true love and true love.
The weeds everywhere have occupied the hillside, and the lonely fang appreciates the most heartache!"
Listening to Leslie Cheung on the side reading the lyrics, Anita Mui quipped: "Shizai, this word is very good." ”
Leslie Cheung's eyes were still staring at the lyrics, and at the same time he smiled: "This lyric is really good, people who can write such lyrics have really rich experience, how to say that they are also in their forties." ”
Fate does not stay
Like a spring breeze coming and going
Women are like flowers
Women are like flowers
Anita Mui also read a few words according to Leslie Cheung's previous lyrics, and said with some admiration: "This song was written by Mr. Xu, who is only three years older than me." ”
At this time, Chen Shufen walked towards the two of them and interjected: "Mr. Xu Ziming Xu wrote it specifically for Miss Mei, so I envy it." Chen Shufen was afraid that Leslie Cheung would not know who Mr. Xu was, so she deliberately named him.
Anita Mui showed a bright smile, which made the surrounding scenery fade for a while.
Leslie Cheung looked at Anita Mui enviously, Xu Ziming is a very powerful character, the lyrics of this song "Woman Flower" are too beautiful, and the beauty is out of control.
"Miss Mei, give it a try and see how you sing. Chen Shufen turned her head and said to Anita Mui, what the song has been adjusted, what Anita Mui needs is to be familiar with this song and figure out how to sing the whole song.
"Good. Anita Mui nodded politely.
After listening to the rhythm played by the music room a few times in the recording studio, and someone next to her to point out, she was also relatively familiar with the general singing method, she knew that this time she might not sing well, but she still bravely let out her voice and began to sing "Woman Flower" along the beat of the music.
I have a flower, planted in my heart, with buds waiting to be released.
Morning and twilight, I eagerly wait, someone with a heart to come to sleep!
I have a flower, the fragrance of the flowers is full of branches, who will really find the trace?
When the flowers don't bloom much, they can be folded straight and folded, and women are like flowers and dreams!
