Chapter 107: Ensemble (Collect)

"My dear. I have a few days to spare next week and have already bought my ticket to Zurich. ”

"This is the best news I've ever heard, and if you don't come back, I'm going to have to look for a new target. ”

"You dare!" Nicole on the other end of the line said viciously, "I'll cut that thing out of yours and pickle it." ”

"It's vicious, I've been idle for a few months, and now it's like a pickle. ”

The other end of the phone grinned, "Don't worry, I'll save it when I go back." ”

When Nicole arrives in Hollywood in August, there are immediately several roles waiting for her. Although they are not big roles, they are all roles that fit her image.

Now she is mainly practicing her acting skills, she doesn't have good acting skills, and she is still young, so she can't play the role of a heroine at all.

Although Nicole was famous in her previous life, she mainly relied on her beauty, and the movies she acted in were almost not particularly commercially successful.

Although she later won the Oscar, her loudest label is box office poison.

To a large extent, her previous life did not go well. The main reason is that the roles in the film are not consistent with me, and she has always been biased towards literary films, and there are few big hits at the box office.

It wasn't until she was in her fifties that she made a real commercial film "Aquaman", although she played the mother of the protagonist, but it was still extremely charming.

Jonas has also been planning in his heart, whether to make Nicole the queen of commercial films, unique.

It's not that he looks down on literary films, anyway, people go to the cinema just to enjoy effects that can't be seen on TV.

And literary films, you can rent a videotape and watch it at home, so why bother to go to the cinema to watch it?

After lingering on the phone with Nicole for a while, Jonas drew a circle on the calendar for November 12.

As soon as the phone was put down, it rang again, this time it was Theresa.

"Jonas, how are you doing?"

"I'm so busy, I have a lot of time to study every day, I have to train and play football on weekends, and when I enter college, I don't even have time to meet my girlfriend. ”

Teresa on the other side gloated. "I deserve it, I've had a very easy time in London, and we've seen Kostler and Dinah more than five times since the start of school, and we've seen a lot of fun things in London together. ”

"Alas, you're going too far!"

The other party laughed heartlessly for a while, and suddenly changed to a pitiful tone and said, "Jonas, I called you today, not to show you off, but to ask you for help." ”

"You know, I'm your eternal knight. ”

"So, can you sing me the song "Never Say Never"?"

Jonas was a little confused and asked, "What is Never Say Never? I don't remember writing this song?"

"But both Kostler and Dinah said you hummed the song, and they sang me a few words, but they didn't have the whole score. ”

Jonas hummed a lot of songs in front of Kostler and Dinah, and many times, when they asked, Jonas said it was inspiration.

His voice condition is not very good, the vocal range is not wide, especially the main bass part, the sound quality is not good.

With his voice, he can make do with rock and roll, and the treble part plays well, but the bass is a disaster. So even if he remembered countless songs from later generations, he never thought of being a singer.

Jonas asked, "Then you hum a few words, I forgot which song you said "Never Say Never." ”

Theresa snorted a few words on the phone, and Jonas understood that it was not a never-say-die story, but "Dreams Possible" or simply translated as "Dreams Come True".

This song is a very inspirational song with a very beautiful melody at the same time. Huawei spent tens of millions of dollars to buy the full copyright of this song, and used this song as a promotional song, which caused a strong response around the world.

Jonas liked this song very much in his previous life, and used it as his own phone ringtone.

The last time he had a party at home, he was having fun and hummed casually, which was heard by Kostler and Dinah, and was now betrayed to Theresa.

Jonas thought for a moment and asked, "Theresa, don't you want to be a singer, why are you asking me for this song now?"

Theresa was happy over there and asked, "So you're done with this song, aren't you?"

"Yes. Still, I think you should tell me why you've changed your mind now?"

On the phone, Teresa told Jonas about his experience over the past few months, and made him understand why Teresa had changed her mind now.

She is now studying art at the University of London, and she has made friends who want to develop in the field of literature and art.

Her mother wanted her to be an art businessman, but for an eighteen-year-old girl, being a singer seemed more tempting.

In particular, her dad is one of the top 10 great rock stars in the world, she has a better starting point than others, and is particularly supportive of her development in the music industry.

In this day and age, being a singer is much more profitable than being a movie star. A record sells tens of millions of copies, and a concert earns millions of dollars, which is something that any first-line singer can do.

A singer of his father's level earns more money a year than more than 90% of the world's large companies.

Theresa has an elegant and beautiful appearance, a good voice, and a very good guitar player, and has the potential to become a famous singer.

In December, her dad had three rock concerts in London and had written a song specifically for Theresa, wanting her to show her face as a warm-up singer and see the reaction.

But she thinks her dad's songs are too decadent and negative for girls her age to sing.

When she was hanging out with Kosteller, she heard Dinah humming the song and immediately liked it.

understood the reason, and knew that Theresa was not playing with tickets, but really wanted to develop in the direction of a singer, and Jonas naturally wanted to support her.

"Then I'll write the score for you tomorrow and send it over, wishing you a maverick pop singer. ”

"No, if you can, I'll go to you tomorrow with the manager of Dad's band, and we'll talk about copyright licensing. Jonas, it's a favor and it's a business. ”

Jonas laughed, he really didn't care about the copyright issue, but since she said so, it seemed that she could write (copy) two more songs for her that suited her voice.

Hanging up the phone, Jonas seriously recalled the trend of the music scene in the coming decades.

The styles of male singers in the world are ever-changing, but female singers have always had only three different voices.

The first is Madonna, Taylor Swift and their representative voices, the sound quality is sweet, the vocal range is not wide, but it is easy to control any style.

The second type is the talented female singers represented by Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey, whose voices are very charming in the low register, and can be easily controlled in the high register.

These are two very different styles, and there is one style that is somewhere in between, represented by Celine Dion.

Whether it is pop, rock, country, or the music world, these three voices are the mainstay, or these three styles.

Theresa's style belongs to the first type, and any song can be sung, but the masterpiece is very important.

The inspirational song "Dreams Are Possible" is very suitable for her age, but it was taken out thirty years in advance, and I don't know if the market can accept it.

However, this is not something you can worry about.

The arrangement of the song "Dreams Made Possible" is very simple, cello, violin, piano, whistle, and the drum beat can form the main melody of the song.

In this day and age, such a song could cause an even bigger sensation than it did after the popularity of electronic music in later generations.

The songs of female singers in Jonas's memory can still remember that most of the scores are from the new century onwards, and there are very few that conform to today's fashion trends, and there are many male singers, but they are not suitable for Teresa to sing.

At the piano, Jonas played and completed the score, never remembering a proper song.

Hannah appeared at the top of the stairs and asked softly, "Jonas, is this a song you wrote?"

"Grandma, did you make a noise?"

"No, of course not, I just didn't hear the full melody and made me a little curious. ”

When she came to the piano, she picked up the score written by Jonas and read it carefully, and said, "A very nice song with positive lyrics. It would be more appropriate if you sang this song at your graduation ceremony. ”

Jonas laughed. "Grandma, my vocal range is not that wide at all, and Kostler is more suitable for this song than me. What's more, I only perfected this song today. ”

"Why did you write this song all of a sudden? I thought you were forced to give up all your hobbies because of your heavy schoolwork. ”

"I've got to learn to be happy and busy, don't I?"

She reached out and touched Jonas's face and held him in her arms. "Honey, a lot of times, grandma feels like you're a different person. ”

Jonas also put his arm around her and patted her on the back. He wasn't surprised that Hannah had noticed a change in him, because the change was obvious. "Grandma, do you like me after the change?"

"Of course. ”

Jonas comforted her and said, "I have grown up and matured, and now I can try to withstand the wind and rain for you." ”

Feeling the warmth of her body in her arms and the familiar breath, Hannah couldn't help but laugh. Sun Tzu has become more sensible, although he has matured and his mind has become more complicated, but he can indeed face the wind and rain of the outside world.

"Let's play this song together......"

Jonas nodded and said, "I'll play the violin, you will sing, my voice can't sing this song." ”

Jonas got up to get his violin, and Hannah sat down at the piano, familiarizing herself with the score.

After a while, the melodious melody sounded, although the cooperation was not tacit, and there were mistakes in the middle, but a song was completely interpreted by them.

Hannah's breath is insufficient, but her skillful skills make up for the lack of her voice.

The performance of the song is flawed, but the relationship between the two grandchildren is so perfect.
