Chapter 892: A Match Made in Heaven

"What the hell is this lyrics, are you sure you can sing it?"

Zhou Kang's face was slightly distorted.

Even if you don't have any musical cells and can't understand the things on the score, you can always recognize the lyrics.

In the song called "Chinese Words" sent to him by Zhang Chu, most of them are tongue twisters!

Sing tongue twisters as songs, Zhou Kang has never heard of them anyway, probably because he is lonely and unheard.

The long bench is wide, the elder brother and younger brother sit in front of the slope, and there is a child named Xiao Du who has something to say about his legs and legs, just looking at this word, he feels that his tongue is protesting.

I'm afraid that ordinary singers really don't dare to challenge this song.

Even if you can sing it in the studio, it's easy to get stuck and make mistakes when performing live, so do you have to lip-sync all the time?

What's more, changing tongue twisters to lyrics is really a test of one's imagination.

Other than that, the rest seems to be pretty well written. ”

After Zhou Kang complained, he forwarded the file to Hu Yang of Shonan Satellite TV.

Anyway, Zhang Chu has already written the song, and it depends on their own decision whether to adopt it or not!

Anyway, Zhou Kang really wants to listen to this "Chinese Words", and it feels very different from the songs he has heard before.

The content of this song is very much in line with the characteristics of the "Chinese Bridge" competition, and it depends on whether the recording party is willing to accept it.

In fact, in his imagination, Zhang Chu should have written a Chinese-style song, but he didn't expect it to be like this.

But this product is not specialized in writing lyrics and composing music after all, and it is okay to cross the border occasionally, so there is no need to force it.

After seeing the receipt of the successful delivery of the email, Zhou Kang began to devote himself to serious work, the listing of "The Lord of the Rings" is the top priority, and the next focus of Hanlin Culture Media will be on this work.

Although it is now May Day, almost no one in the company has a holiday, and everyone from leaders to employees is working overtime!

The entertainment industry is like that.

When the general public is resting, it is their busiest stage.

They can't rely on Zhang Chu's high popularity and strong appeal to be lazy and not publicize, so they will only continue to eat their old books.

What Hanlin Culture Media Company wants to do is not to consume Zhang Chu's popularity, but to increase his popularity!

There is always a time when the old book is eaten, and now Zhang Chu is still so young, it is not the stage of eating the old book at all.

Of course, propaganda definitely costs money and resources.

There can be no such thing as a free lunch.

If so, you have to think about why.

This "Lord of the Rings" has a lot of significance for Zhang Chu, it can be regarded as his return after a long time, from the theme of reality to the realm of fantasy!

Since "The Legend of Wukong", he has not written any fantasy works.

"Farewell My Concubine", "Norwegian Wood", "In the Name of the People" and "The Da Vinci Code" can be regarded as realistic themes, even if "The Da Vinci Code" is suspenseful and reasoning, but it is not fantasy.

After writing so many works, now I am back to my best fantasy.

If the book can stabilize its reputation and sales around the world, then his position as a top author will be stabilized, not a book that becomes a god and then is fleeting!

Zhou Kang is actually not confident in the sales of "The Lord of the Rings" in the mainland, at least in terms of the content and writing he has read, this is a little different from Zhang Chu's previous writing, and it seems that the fun and readability seem to be weaker.

To put it simply, you may not be able to retain readers at the very beginning.

Those who like it will like it to death, but those who don't like it are also estimated to dislike it to death.

The mainland region is only its subsidiary battlefield, and the main battlefield is still in Europe and the United States!

Can a Western fantasy work written by an East Asian conquer European and American readers?

No one can give an answer.

But since Random House has the confidence to go to the Cannes Film Festival to sell books, it proves that the company still attaches great importance to Zhang Chu's new book.

Hanlin Culture Media has to consider global sales, and only Nanhai Publishing Company will only consider domestic sales.

"Let's follow the plan first, and see what Mr. Ye has to say when the meeting is held later. ”

……

Hu Yang felt that he probably didn't understand how writers, artists, and musicians think.

Even if Zhang Chu is not a literary scholar at all, he is at least a literary worker, and this product actually handed over a song full of tongue twisters!

What does he mean by that? If you don't want to write the theme song for Chinese Bridge, you just refuse to do it. Do you want to make this song indiscriminately now?"

Now Hu Yang is a little angry, he feels that he has been fooled.

Originally, I had some appreciation and liking for Zhang Chu because of the hot search on the show, but now I quickly changed my attitude.

The rest of the staff of the preparatory group are a little inexplicable, and now the head boss is losing his temper, if you ask, will it be angry?

Fan Tianhua and the others looked at each other, completely unaware of what Zhang Chu had done to make Hu Yang thunderous.

After a few people made eye contact, Tian Lecai, who was nervous, plucked up the courage to ask: "Director Hu, what lyrics did this Zhang Chu write?

At this moment, Hu Yang was rubbing his right hand, and just now he recalled the content of the chapter on strength in junior high school when the physics teacher talked about force.

The force is mutual, and although the slap on the table makes a loud sound, the palm of the hand hurts too much.

After hearing his subordinates' questions, Hu Yang said, "I'll get it on the projector, and you can see it for yourself." ”

If Zhang Chu directly refused, maybe he wouldn't be so angry and would rather be rejected!

In the conference room, Tian Le, Fan Tianhua and others raised their heads to look at the documents projected on the curtain in front of them, and then one by one black question marks appeared.

"What the hell is this?"

"The long bench can be a lyricist, and he is too lazy!"

"I don't understand, this god's thinking is really peculiar. ”

"Director Hu, I understand, this is really perfunctory!"

"It's not that exaggerated, I think this form is pretty good, if you can really integrate tongue twisters into it. Isn't that part of traditional Chinese culture?"

"Don't rush to conclusions, I think the lyrics in the back seem to be pretty good, you can express your opinion after reading it. Huang Zhi, an employee with better qualifications, opened his mouth to persuade, "My old guy can barely accept novel lyrics, you young guys and girls, and the result is directly decided, which is not good." ”

The anger in Hu Yang's heart also dissipated a lot along with the pain in his palm at this time, and he decided to take a look at the content behind it, so as not to say that he had wronged others.

He secretly made up his mind in his heart that if the content behind it was just as bad, he would simply put the lyrics of this song on the Internet, so that netizens could see how high Zhang Chu's level of writing songs was!

The previous "Wukong", "Norwegian Wood", and "Once Upon a Time Slow" were all high-quality products, but now it is the turn of "Chinese Words" to become so inferior.

It is impossible for a person's level to decline so quickly, and the only explanation is that he is careless.

[Marilyn of London bought a cheongsam for her mother]

[Moscow's Vsky falls in love with beef gnocchi]

These two lyrics are naturally useless for ordinary singers, but there can be no mediocrity on Zhang Chu's side.

Disappointing, still disappointed!

【Skin of all colors, hair of all colors】

[The mouth begins to pop Chinese]

[How many years have we practiced English pronunciation and grammar]

[In the past few years, they have rolled their tongues to learn the changes that have gone up and entered]

When Hu Yang saw these words, his head suddenly exploded!

This description of the Chinese dialect was very exciting for Populus euphratica.

Isn't this a true portrayal of Chinese Bridge?

In the past, he had to learn English when he was in school, but now foreign university students from four continents are learning how to speak Chinese and how to write Chinese!

A sense of pride arose.

"Well written!" Tian Le suddenly clapped his hands, "But Zhang Chu is also very narcissistic! Such a smart Chinese, such a beautiful Chinese language, this kid is really thick-skinned." ”

"I think a tongue twister is like a collocation and an introduction that leads to the rest of the content. Director Hu, take a look at the content behind, it is very well written, and it is very in line with the characteristics of our program. ”

"yes, just looking at the word is on fire!"

[The whole world is learning Chinese]

[Confucius's words are becoming more and more international]

[The whole world is speaking Chinese]

[What we say, let the world be obedient]

Chinese Bridge is a competition launched by the Confucius Institute Headquarters, and each sub-division is also held in different Confucius Institutes, and the contestants from hundreds of Confucius Institutes around the world and other places are not speaking Chinese.

But Populus Hu dragged his chin and thought about it seriously, and the writing was indeed very good, but could it be too loud?

It is true that the number of speakers of Chinese is large, but to be honest, the scope of Chinese use is not particularly wide.

If this lyric is used by some people, it is easy to carry the arrogant criticism of Yoro.

Hu Yang has a slight headache now, if it is an ordinary variety show, he will not worry about any controversy and criticism, it is all used to increase attention.

But the "Chinese Bridge" contest is a political task, and it is already very bold to make it half a reality show by yourself, and there are quite a few complaints from Shonan TV and Hanban, and now they are making a theme song that may bring negative news, and it is estimated that the leaders will want to beat people!

Stability is what they've been looking for, and they want ratings and don't want to take risks, there's no better of both worlds.

Among the members of the preparatory group present, Huang Zhi can best understand Populus euphratica's mood.

This old fritter's sense of smell in the workplace is very sensitive, he looked at Hu Yang with a tangled face, and took the initiative to ask: "Director Hu, what do you think of this song?"

"In terms of content, it fits our program very well. I took back my previous words, Zhang Chu did not deliberately perfunctory us, but really wrote an extremely appropriate theme song in a very short period of time. ”

Hu Yang is not a stubborn person, and after a pause, he continued: "But, the lyrics seem to be a bit loud, and what we say makes the world listen to it seriously, is this learning from the United States to engage in hegemonism?"

"Don't over-interpret a song, I guess I want to express that our Chinese dialect is very popular, and more and more people abroad are willing to listen to it and learn it. Fan Tianhua knows that over-interpretation can sometimes make a work, but sometimes it can also ruin it.

Wei Wei, a member who had been silent on the side, hesitated for a moment before speaking: "I think the matter of the theme song should be decided by the above, no matter whether the final ending is good or bad, it is the decision of the above." ”

"That's good, let's find someone to arrange this song, and then see if anyone in the station can sing, go and help record a master, and if you agree, find a suitable singer to record it well." What do you think?"

Hu Yang was reminded by this girl that he couldn't make any big decisions about Chinese Bridge, and he could only look at the leaders.

"Director Hu, otherwise you can sing, you are a KTV Maiba!"

"I think it's okay to let the leaders listen to the song directly, which is simpler and clearer than looking at the lyrics and scores. ”

"Didn't you read Zhang Chu's notes? This is a Chinese rap, and I feel that it will definitely be strange to sing. And he also suggested that we find female singers to sing, how many female singers can sing rap well?"

"There should be a few female singers in hip-hop in China who sing rap well, but I don't think there is a need to find a special rapper for this song. ”

They are also vigorous and resolute people, and the lyrics and songs of "Chinese Words" are ready-made, so they will be handed over to the professionals in the station to produce.

All departments in Shonan TV are complete, and the music department is a big department, and there are several top recording studios.

Hu Yang stood up, "I'll go to Lao Tang to help me get it, which of you will sing the master's tape?" This is a good opportunity in front of the big leader, don't waste this opportunity!"

"Director Hu, I'll go with you. I can't sing, but I can at least have ears to listen. ”

"Let's go, let's go together. ”

"yes, I also want to know how this Doremi's instigation became a song. ”

"Zhang Chu really has a few brushes, it seems that it has only been less than half an hour, he brought the song over, and it was written quite well. Did you say he wrote it on an improvised basis, or did he write it before?"

"I think it should have been written before, half an hour is enough!"

"He didn't know that we were going to ask him to write the theme song. ”

"It's stupid, if we hadn't invited him, he might have taken the initiative to talk about it as an ambassador. ”

The nine members of the Chinese Bridge preparatory team walked towards the recording studio on the eighth floor, arguing as they went.

This left the rest a little baffled.

It's a big TV station, and all kinds of departments are gathered here, and any news about it will spread throughout the company as soon as possible.

For Zhang Chu's song, everyone coincidentally chose to keep it secret, they all wanted to hear what this song looked like, and now they all ignored the inquiries one by one!

Chinese tongue twisters with RAP, this combination looks extremely sour, especially mixed and matched.

Among Chinese music lovers, there are only a few who like hip-hop rap music like RAP, but Zhang Chu just wrote this style, and he is really a young man!
