Chapter 629
"Lao Zhou, what is Xiao Zhengzheng going to do?" In the entire company, only Guo Meimei is the one who calls Ye Zheng like this. "I don't know, it looks pretty serious anyway. Zhou Ke said, "Is there something going on in the company?"
"If it's a company thing, why do you have to gather artists and creative teams, and you don't call a general manager. Guo Meimei shook her head. "It's not like a sudden convulsion, you want to see the company he has built, right, gather us to listen to him, and satisfy your sense of accomplishment?" Zhou Ke guessed.
"Do you think he's the kind of brainless young man?" said Lu Chunsheng, another top producer of Time Music, with a smile. Several of them discussed and made a few jokes, and the others were entangled, especially the few newcomers who had just signed a contract with Time and Space Music, in front of these seniors, they didn't dare to talk much, let alone joke.
"Kiki, do you know what's going on?" asked Wan Chengcheng, a newly signed young singer, Xiao Qi. Everyone in the company knows that Xiao Qi and Ye Zheng came out of the same school, and they are also the first singers to sign a contract with Time and Space Music, and many people know that Xiao Qi seems to be interesting to Ye Zheng, and everyone knows that their relationship is not ordinary. And Xiao Qi himself has a very good temper, except for sometimes domineering side leaks to show the style of a rock queen, he is usually quite kind to everyone. So the people in the company also like her.
Sometimes Wan Chengcheng and their newly signed singers also want to ask for a song from Ye Zheng through Xiao Qi. They have a sense of awe and distance from their predecessors like Zhou Ke, so they are often with Xiao Qi. Xiao Qi shook his head: "I don't know ......" "Sister Xiao Qi, what kind of temperament is Ye Dong?" Wan Chengcheng asked, this question is also of concern to other rookie singers, none of them have officially met Ye Zheng, nor have they talked to Ye Zheng.
Ye Zheng created one or two songs for each of them, and they only got it after they created it and gave it to the company. In fact, they are not familiar with Ye Zheng, but they know Ye Zheng's great achievements in time and space music, and they also feel Ye Zheng's terrifying creative talent from the songs Ye Zheng wrote for them. Because of this, they had a feeling of admiration and fear for Ye Zheng. "He's good-tempered, it's fine. Xiao Qi smiled and said, "He is younger than you, you don't have to be afraid of him." ”
Wan Chengcheng and they were silent, Xiao Qi said it easily, they didn't have the intimate relationship between Xiao Qi and Ye Zheng. The door was suddenly pushed open, and the entire conference room instantly fell silent, and everyone's eyes looked at Ye Zheng, who walked in with a stack of papers in his hand. smiled and nodded to everyone, said hello to Zhou Ke, Guo Meimei, and Lu Chunsheng, and then sat in the chief position. Looking at the people sitting here, Ye Zheng was indeed quite emotional, he was an ordinary middle school student a year ago, and now he is the chairman of a music company and a well-known genius creator in the music industry. Today, the total number of employees in Time Music, including artists and production teams, has exceeded 500, and it is approaching the scale of a music company like Peacock Music.
"Sorry to interrupt everyone's work. Ye Zheng said. No one spoke, Zhou Ke smiled and said, "Ye Dong can tell him if he has anything." In this kind of formal meeting situation, he will not joke with Ye Zheng. "I called everyone here today because when I went to Tianjin yesterday, I encountered an incident that gave birth to some of my feelings...... Ye Zheng said slowly, and then briefly described the matter of Sangsang. "She is going to come here in a while, and it will be troublesome for Brother Zhou to do a good job of signing her contract. Ye Zheng said to Zhou Ke.
"Well, yes, don't worry. Zhou Ke nodded, such a news also made the atmosphere fall silent again. Ye Zheng continued: "This incident makes me quite emotional, not about Sangsang himself, but about the entire group of parents...... It's not easy to be a parent, but the experience of friends who are already parents must be even more profound. I'm still a young man, except for Xiao Qi, everyone here is older than my youth, so I won't make too many sensational remarks about it, but everyone must understand what I mean. ”
"So, on the way back, I came up with the idea that I wanted to make an album about my parents. Ye Zheng said, and then he took the pile of white paper and gestured: "That's them." There was a suppressed exclamation. Like Zhou Ke, a few of them who have seen Ye Zheng's perverted creative speed and creative quality have responded well, and they are all amazed in their hearts, but they are gradually getting used to it. And Wan Chengcheng, the newly signed singers and songwriters, made huge waves in their hearts. These days, they have also heard people talk about music, Ye Zheng once created Su Momo's album in a very short period of time, and also created a song "On the Moon" for the Phoenix Legend on the spot. But after all, hearing is heard, and it is far less powerful than the shock of personal experience.
I had an idea on the way here, and now I have created it directly...... Look at those papers, there are at least seven or eight songs!" Ye Dong is really a god-like creator, the little woman admires the five-body ......" Wan Chengcheng sighed in a low voice. Originally, there was a suppressed whisper in the room, but everyone quickly quieted down and waited for Ye Zheng's words, so Wan Chengcheng lowered his voice and said this sentence clearly, and everyone heard it clearly, and collectively looked at Wan Chengcheng. Wan Chengcheng also realized that something was wrong, his face flushed, and he looked at Ye Zheng with some apprehension. When she saw Ye Zheng also looking at her, her heart tightened, thinking that this was the end......
"Miss Wan Chengcheng, right?" Ye Zheng asked her with a smile. "Well, Ye Dong is good!" Wan Chengcheng heard Ye Zheng call her name, and quickly stood up and replied, lowering his head and not daring to look at Ye Zheng, scolding himself in his heart for why he didn't take care of his mouth just now, and now he was named, I don't know what the consequences will be. She prayed, hoping that Ye Zheng's temper would not be bad. Looking at Wan Chengcheng's appearance, Ye Zheng couldn't help but smile, and said in his heart, "You don't have to stand up, just sit down and talk." Ye Zheng smiled: "That's the case, take a look at this song." I think it's better for you to sing it. ”
As he spoke, Ye Zheng took out a piece of paper and asked people to pass it to Wan Chengcheng. This scene made everyone murmur in their hearts, is Ye Zheng going to hand over this album to Wan Chengcheng to sing? So what are you going to do by calling them all? No, no, Ye Zheng just said that the song is suitable for Wan Chengcheng to sing.
He took so many songs, did he mean...... As if to confirm the thoughts in some people's hearts, Ye Zheng continued: "There are eight songs here, and I am going to give them to different people to sing, these songs have different styles, but they are all popular songs.
Then put it on the market at a low price. What do you think?" "To be honest, I don't really agree with that. Zhou Ke said: "I understand your original intention, but I don't think it's necessary to put them all in one album, it can be completely disassembled and put in the original albums of these singers." And in this case, it is rare for a singer with a different track on an album to sing. After all, no one wants to be compared, so putting it on an album will make it easier for listeners to compare. Moreover, everyone's singing style is different, and putting different kinds of songs in one album will feel nondescript. Unless it's already famous songs put together to make a compilation. ”
"You have a point. Ye Zheng nodded and said with a smile: "But I think that with such an album that praises parents, few people will be idle and compare who sings better." Well, let's go through these songs first. Eight songs were circulated, and Ye Zheng sat there quietly watching them. This is an album composed entirely of songs praising his father and mother, the eight songs are "Father" and "Mother" by Mr. Yan Weiwen, "Understand You" by Man Wenjun, "White-haired Mother", and "Mother in the Candlelight", "Kneeling Sheep", "Thinking of Old Mother", "Holding Your Hand".
Among them, "Holding Your Hand" is "Father" sung by Wei Jia, because there is already a song "Father", so Ye Zheng changed the name of the song. And the reason why he called these people was not to preach to them about the ideology of honoring their parents, but to take into account some problems with these songs. Especially for songs like "Father", "Mother", and "White-haired Mother", there is no doubt that they are classics, but they are not suitable for today's music market, nor are they suitable for today's mainstream fan groups, so these songs should be arranged differently from the original version, and the composition should also be modified to a certain extent, so that it is more suitable for the status quo without losing the original touch, and the best thing is of course to be able to make their artistic conception and moving a higher level with everyone's efforts. When writing songs, he also made some changes himself, but his current level is not as good as these experienced people, so he still needs them to revise some of them.
After about twenty minutes, the songs were cursoryly skimmed. Then, everyone looked at Ye Zheng's eyes full of amazement again. Ye Zheng feels that the arrangement and composition style of several of these songs are not suitable for the current situation of the music market, but in the eyes of others, Ye Zheng shows another creative style. How many music creation styles he has mastered, starting from the first album, carefully speaking, Ye Zheng has shown a different style in each album. Today, his songs show the style and form of popular music in the eighties and nineties. For today's creators, especially young creators, there are very few people who can master this creative style.
"You're right, he's a god-like creator. Xiao Qi whispered to Wan Chengcheng. She added in her heart, this is the man I have my eye on!" Because the style of these albums ......" Ye Zheng said his considerations, and then signaled to everyone: "Please express your opinions again." "No comment. Zhou Ke said: "As for the style of this album, well, it does need to be revised." Hey, Ye Dong, I finally saw you take the initiative to ask everyone to revise your work, it's not easy!"
"What do you mean? I've always said that if you have a better opinion on the songs I took out, you can modify them completely, okay? Didn't the two albums of Su Momo and Phoenix Legend be modified to a certain extent?" Ye Zheng said. "That's not what you took out, there's really no need to modify it?" Zhou Ke said: "Everyone has been hating crazy recently, as long as it's something you take out, just sort it out, and then make arrangements directly." ”
Ye Zheng found that he still underestimated Xiao Qi's influence, and when Xiao Qi appeared on the stage, the entire hall resounded with warm applause and cheers. "Xiao Qi! Xiao Qi!" someone shouted. "Xiao Qi, I love you! I'm your fan!" I don't know which boy shouted, causing a burst of laughter. If it's a concert, it's normal, but at this kind of awards party, it's still quite interesting.
"I love you too. Xiao Qi smiled: "It's a pleasure to meet you here, a new song of mine "Cold Rainy Night" is for everyone, this is the first time I have sung it!" She is a guest performer, not much to say, the accompanying music sounded, Xiao Qi opened her mouth to sing: "Walking in the rain, the blue street lamps are gradually revealed, looking at each other, silently hugging, in order to find the past, to find the warm past, disappeared." I am by your side on a cold rainy night, I hope you will know, but I know that my heart has changed compared to the beginning, only far-fetched to get along, I don't want to go home on a cold rainy night, I am afraid to look at your back, only smile bitterly and look at the raindrops, you need to know to make it clear, but unfortunately I didn't dare to try......"
THE SONG "COLD RAINY NIGHT" FROM BEYOND WAS SUNG BY XIAO QI FOR THE FIRST TIME HERE, AND YE ZHENG NODDED LIGHTLY, VERY SATISFIED WITH XIAO QI'S PERFORMANCE. Xiao Qi is simply a girl born for rock and roll, and today she came here as a guest, wearing not very exciting, quite casual clothes. But when she stood on the stage and sang, in the beat of the guitar drums, under the shaking lights, a warm atmosphere of rock and roll suddenly swept away in all directions centered on her.
The atmosphere in the whole hall was driven by Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi waved his arms and shouted in between singing: "I wish everyone better and better results in the film industry!" After the song "Cold Rainy Night", Xiao Qi withdrew in a cheer, and another singer came up to the stage to sing. Ye Zheng was surprised to find that he actually knew this girl! Lu Hong! More than half a year ago, in Hengyang City, Ye Zheng and Zhou Ke took Lu Hong's father's taxi, and thus got acquainted with Lu Hong, the girl who once had low self-esteem and did not dare to go out, the girl who once blocked the door of the house because she disturbed her neighbors because of her singing, and the girl who was obsessed with singing...... Ye Zheng didn't expect to meet her here!
The song that Lu Hong sang was the song "That Sea" that he gave to Lu Hong, this song, Ye Zheng had already given it to Lu Hong at that time, originally Zhou Ke planned to personally focus on cultivating Lu Hong, but later gave up the renewal contract of Mai Tian and founded Time and Space Music with Ye Zheng. Ye Zheng gave this song to Lu Hong, no creation fee, Lu Hong enjoyed the right to sing this song. For Ye Zheng, saving a good voice with low self-esteem is more important than a song. When Zhou Ke was in the wheat field, she had entrusted her to the company, so Lu Hong also received some attention and was discovered for her good voice. Subsequently, she successfully entered the training class of Wheat Field Music.
That's all Ye Zheng knew, and he learned it when he was chatting with Zhou Ke. Then I didn't know about Lu Hong's situation. But now it seems that Lu Hong has also undergone tremendous changes in the past six months, and it is not at all like Ye Zheng when he saw her at that time. She is still chubby, and she is still so unattractive that she can even be said to be ugly, but she stands on the stage, singing affectionately, revealing a sunny and confident look, and from her body, she can no longer see half of her inferiority complex.
She sang on the stage, waved her hand to the audience, and loud applause rang out, and someone called her name. Someone was singing the climax along with her. It seems that she is a little famous now, Ye Zheng smiled, he was very happy to see that a girl who used to be like that has become what she is today, as if he had witnessed a chrysalis break out of its cocoon and become a butterfly. "It's not easy for this girl. Cheng Yijian said.
"Huh?" Ye Zheng looked at him curiously: "Do you know her?" "Lu Hong, you definitely haven't watched a singing entertainment show that was very popular some time ago, Huaxia Female Voice." Cheng Yijian said: "Lu Hong is a semi-finalist, but he lost in the semifinals. The most touching thing is her story, from a girl who didn't dare to go out to meet people, to now being loved by many people, she is not easy. This song "That Sea" is her masterpiece, it is said that it is a song given to her by a person, she once said in a program that this song has a very important meaning to her, once in her most difficult time, it was that person who gave her hope, and it was this song that gave her strength and warmth. ”
"Huh. Ye Zheng smiled. "This song is very good, isn't it?" Cheng Yijian asked Ye Zheng. "That's good!" Ye Zheng nodded: "I like it a lot." After Lu Hong finished singing, he briefly expressed his blessings to everyone and left here. After nearly ten minutes of jubilation, everyone gradually quieted down, waiting for the announcement of the four most important awards, Best Actress, Best Actor, Best Director, and Best Micro Film.
"Xu Qi, say it quickly, there is Wang Ying's Best Actress. Wang Ying poked Xu Qi's arm and said. Xu Qi nodded and began to mumble: "There must be Wang Ying's Best Actress, there must be Wang Ying's Best Actress......"
Zou Kang began to read out the list, four nominations, no Wang Ying. Xu Qi stuck out his tongue: "Beauty, I'm sorry." Wang Ying smiled indifferently: "It's okay, sister doesn't care about this, when I look back, my sister can earn twenty or thirty thousand yuan for a drama performance, is this kind of small prize a hair?" Ma Huijie said to Wang Ying: "Sister Ying, you must win a grand prize in the future!
"Mmmmmmmmmmmm The beautiful woman who won the best actress came to the stage to accept the award, a very beautiful girl, dressed up young and beautiful, returned to the team after winning the award, and gave everyone a warm hug, quite excited. "Here's Best Actor. Xu Qi asked**: "Are you nervous?" "What do you say?"** asked rhetorically. "Uh...... You said you were very confident, so you shouldn't be nervous, right?" Xu Qi said. ** looked at him with disdain: "It wasn't the time to be nervous, didn't you notice that my voice was trembling now? Zhou Bin is the director and the actor of the actor, if you say that in this regard, he is indeed a very talented person. A suppressed cheer rang out in Zhou Bin's team, and Zhou Bin's face also showed a smile and confidence. This is their fourth nomination, and this time they will definitely win the Best Actor award. He has a strong sense of self-confidence in his performance.
However, then he heard Zhu Danzi read out the second person to be nominated,**. Zhou Bin's face was instantly ugly, last year, that is, ** and he won the nomination for Best Actor at the same time, but the last person to win the Best Actor was **! This year, he came with confidence, and he was nominated with **! Must win! Zhou Bin clenched his fists, or even if he can't get it, he must not be **! Otherwise, he feels like he will go crazy! He didn't care who the next two nominees were, just waiting for the lottery guests to say the names of the final winners. "The person who won the Best Actor Award at the 4th College Student Short Film Festival is ......"
Hearing the name, Zhou Bin had a feeling that he was about to collapse, **, again**! It was almost the same scene as last year, and the same result was staged. ** Standing up with a smile and going to the stage to accept the award, he gave Zhou Bin a sneering look on the way. So Zhou Bin remembered Ma Huijie's seemingly kind smile, and remembered Cheng Yijian's smug smile, and instantly he felt like he was going to vomit blood. How could this be? How could this be? He breathed heavily, his hand kept clenching and loosening, and then clenching and loosening...... "Brother Bin, don't be angry, the best director in the back must be yours." The people around him noticed Zhou Bin's expression and hurriedly comforted him. Several more people opened their mouths to persuade him.
"You don't have to persuade me! whoever should be is whoever, I'm fine!" Zhou Bin said, but said through gritted teeth. At this time, there was already a lot of discussion in the hall, the crew of "I Heard" has won two awards, and even won three more awards, is it going to become the biggest winner of this micro film festival?
"Oh, I remember, at last year's College Student Micro Film Festival, the best actor was **, it's him!" Someone who knew about last year's situation recognized **, so someone started to discuss**. Winning Best Actor for two years in a row is quite difficult!"He's so handsome!" a girl in the front row whispered. So Xu Qi suddenly understood a truth: "Damn, I said**Why do you like to chat with me recently, I originally thought we were like-minded, but now it seems that this guy must be using me to set off him!"
Zhu Danzi has information in his hand, probably indicating that ** is the winner of last year's Best Actor, so he interviewed ** a few more words, and then praised him for being handsome and promising, so he asked him to step down. Next, for the Best Director Award, Zhou Bin and Cheng Yijian were both nominated. Both men were undoubtedly very eager to receive this award, but sadly, neither of them got it. Zhou Bin's face is very ugly, so even if he wins the best micro film, he will have one less award than Ye Zheng and his crew. Fortunately, the best micro film is the heaviest award, and if it can be won, it will look a lot better.
Zhou Bin prayed in his heart, he heard the nomination of "Etude of Love" and the nomination of "I Heard", and he couldn't stop praying that he must win the best micro-film...... He, along with everyone present, waited with bated breath for the lottery guests to announce the results. Zhou Bin felt that the world was spinning for a while, and he leaned back on the seat weakly, and his eyes had lost their brilliance. He was defeated, and he was defeated badly.
