Chapter Ninety-Two: The Big Boss
As Wang Jinghua expected, it only took one day for Song Zheng to record all eight songs, and when Song Zheng just finished recording, Wang Jinghua asked Gao Xiaosong to record a tape, take it and leave, she was going to Wang Zhongjun to invest. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Song Zheng doesn't know much about specific things, listening to Wang Jinghua's meaning, it seems that before, Huayi Brothers didn't attach much importance to him, after all, Huayi Brothers has been doing movies for so many years, and they are not very concerned about music.
Before Wang Jinghua went to the Wang brothers, saying that they were planning to release an album for Song Zheng, Wang Zhongjun, the big boss of Huayi Brothers at that time, was not at ease at all, but regarded this cooperation with Taihe Maitian as an experiment of Huayi Brothers in the music market.
With such a thought, counting on Wang Zhongjun to invest too much money in Song Zheng's album, it was not shown at all, when Wang Jinghua was talking to Wang Zhongjun at that time, because Song Zheng had no capital at all, and she couldn't say anything when the big boss spoke.
But this time, Wang Jinghua was confident enough, and she rushed to Song Zheng's eight songs, and she was confident to persuade the Wang brothers that she, a half-musician, could hear Song Zheng's eight songs, the first classic, she didn't believe the Wang brothers, and she could continue to ignore them.
The headquarters of Huayi Brothers is just outside Chaoyangmen, Wang Jinghua rushed here in a hurry, and went directly to Wang Zhongjun's office, on the way, she had already called.
"Mr. Wang!" Wang Jinghua didn't even knock on the door, just pushed the door and came in, said hello, and sat opposite Wang Zhongjun.
Wang Zhongjun saw that Wang Jinghua had arrived, and he didn't mind her faux pas, he was very serious to Wang Jinghua, otherwise, he would not have handed over more than half of the company's artists' brokerage contracts to Wang Jinghua.
"What's the matter? I'm so anxious, I didn't hear it clearly on the phone just now, what the hell is going on!?"
Wang Zhongjun has been a little annoyed recently, the reason is that after Jiang Wen's "The Devil is Coming" was revised, it was submitted for review, but it was still killed, he asked someone to scan it, it is said that the opinions within the review team on this movie are very big, and it may never have a chance to be released.
Wang Zhongjun had no choice, so he could only let Jiang Wen continue to modify, and at the same time asked Wang Zhonglei to find an acquaintance to dredge it up and see if he could raise his noble hand above, after all, real money was smashed into it, even if it was still sinking in the end, he should always be able to hear a sound.
Jiang Wen's side has already annoyed Wang Zhongjun, and Feng Xiaogang, another general of Huayi Brothers, will not let him worry, "A Sigh", which was originally scheduled to be released in the summer, has been reviewed, but as a result, Feng Xiaogang suddenly said something, there are a few scenes to be reshot, after filming, it will have to be re-edited, and when it will be released, it has become unknown now.
I drank with a few investors last night, and until now, Wang Zhongjun's head is still dizzy, that is, Wang Jinghua, and if he changes to someone else, Wang Zhongjun has no intention of seeing it now.
Wang Jinghua also saw that Wang Zhongjun was not in a state today, if it was something else, it would be nothing to talk about it later, but Song Zheng's matter, she couldn't wait, she was now full of desire to see what Song Zheng, a kid, could be tossed into the entertainment industry.
"Mr. Wang, I'm coming back, but I'm annoying you, I'll say it later, you can't blast me out!"
Wang Zhongjun smiled and pointed at Wang Jinghua: "You, when, you have to seal other people's mouths before you can speak, say, what's the matter!?"
Wang Jinghua took out the recorded tape: "It's still the last incident, Song Zheng, the newcomer I just signed for the company, the last time I came, Mr. Wang promised to invest." ”
Wang Zhongjun listened to it, frowned slightly, he really didn't have much interest in music, and the most important thing for Huayi Brothers at the moment was actually to consolidate the film market, and Huayi Brothers might develop music business in the future, but not now.
The last time Wang Jinghua came to talk about this, the reason why Wang Zhongjun agreed was to see Wang Jinghua's face, and secondly, to do an experiment for the company to carry out music-related businesses in the future.
"yes, didn't I say yes? It's a recorded song!?"
Wang Zhongjun said, picked up the tape, and played with it casually in his hand, obviously still not paying attention.
"Mr. Wang, you agreed, but I think the company's investment in Song Zheng is a bit small! ”
Invest more!
Wang Zhongjun's brows furrowed even deeper, don't look at the big business of Huayi Brothers, but there are many places that need money now, Zheng Xiaolong's "Gua Sha" still needs some spare funds, and Ying's "Defensive Counterattack" is in post-production, plus the publicity funds need to be prepared, Jiang Wen's "The Devil is Coming" is still a big shit, recently said that he has a new idea, and he is ready to make another movie, not to mention that the investment of one or two million yuan must be prepared in advance, and Feng Xiaogang's "A Sigh" , re-editing, re-washing the master tape all need money, these are all the company's cadres, Wang Zhongjun, the big boss, can't afford to offend, Wang Jinghua came over to ask for money again, this is asking for money, it's just planning to kill him.
"What, you also know that the company has to use money now, Feng Xiaogang, Jiang Wen, I can't afford to offend anyone, although I am the chairman of Huayi Brothers, but to put it bluntly, it is a long-term worker who carries the work for those masters, and I don't dare to lose a cent if they want it. ”
Wang Jinghua, as the backbone of Huayi Brothers, naturally knows the current situation of the company, the funds have been scattered, and some of them must be prepared for backup, and the money that can be squeezed out is really not much.
"Mr. Wang, I don't want much, three million, I promise, as soon as Song Zheng's album is released, it will be able to earn it back for the company several times!"
Wang Zhongjun was stunned when he heard this, looked at Wang Jinghua, and said, "You are really so sure!"
Wang Jinghua smiled: "I'm not sure of myself, but I'm sure of Song Zheng." ”
Wang Jinghua stood up as she spoke, took the tape tape to the wall, turned on the tape recorder, stuffed the tape inside, and pressed the play button.
Wang Zhongjun didn't stop it, he also wanted to see what kind of singer could make Wang Jinghua so attentive, during this time, he heard that Wang Jinghua spent most of her time on the young man named Song Zheng, who could make Wang Jinghua so attentive, Wang Zhongjun was also very curious.
Soon the sound of music came out, followed by Song Zheng's singing, singing the title song "Yellow".
As soon as Wang Zhongjun heard that it was an English song, his evaluation immediately lowered a lot, he is not an angry young man, the key is that there is really no market for English songs in the Chinese music scene.
However, the song is good!
Wang Zhongjun listened patiently, after singing the song "Yellow", the next thing that sounded was "Dream Chasing Pure Heart", he had heard this song before, and he also listened to it enthusiastically, which is why he could promise Wang Jinghua to release an album for Song Zheng, if nothing else, he would never be able to compensate for such a song.
In the next few songs, Wang Zhongjun became more and more shocked the more he listened to it, his understanding of music was not even as good as Wang Jinghua, but even so, he could still hear it, and each of the songs in this tape was a masterpiece.
waited until the eight songs were sung, Wang Zhongjun had completely understood why Wang Jinghua was so interested in Song Zheng, such a talented singer, who had to take care of it in anyone's hands.
Wang Jinghua has been looking at Wang Zhongjun's expression, from the initial absent-mindedness, until now she has been deeply shocked, she can't help laughing: "Mr. Wang, what do you think now, I asked you for an investment of three million, is it much?"
Not much! Not much!
For these eight songs, as long as you increase investment, shoot the MV for each song and synthesize a hardcover album, it will definitely turn the entire Chinese music scene upside down.
However, Wang Zhongjun also has his own difficulties now, if the Huayi Brothers' account is full of funds at the moment, he will definitely not say a word, and give the money to Wang Jinghua, let her toss, but now it is not the same thing at all.
If you want to talk about money, the company does have idle funds, but those money are all kept by Wang Zhongjun as a precaution, who knows when Jiang Wen and Feng Xiaogang will give him some moths, and they have to keep the Hades debts that block them those days.
Wang Jinghua saw that Wang Zhongjun didn't speak, and her heart was broken, and she also let go: "Mr. Wang, this way, you give me the money, when the time comes, if you can't earn it back, the company doesn't have to give Song Zheng a penny of share, I'll give his share myself!"
When Wang Zhongjun heard this, he was really taken aback by Wang Jinghua's broken energy: "You believe him so much!?"
Wang Jinghua nodded vigorously: "I believe it, Mr. Wang, to tell you the truth, like Song Zheng, I have seen it for the first time in my life, not to mention China, even in the world, you have seen a few artists who can act, sing, and create, I dare to pat my chest with you here to assure, if he is not popular, I Wang Jinghua will never eat this bowl of rice in the entertainment industry again in my life!"
Wang Zhongjun is completely confused now, he has known Wang Jinghua for a long time, all along, Wang Jinghua has always given him the feeling that he is a very shrewd and calm person, but now, in order to support a newcomer, he has given up everything.
Wang Jinghua and Wang Zhongjun looked at each other, not backing down at all: "Mr. Wang, what do you think?"
Wang Jinghua's stubbornness made Wang Zhongjun couldn't help laughing: "Okay! You can really do it! Push me into a corner, get it! I approved the investment you want, and you don't need to call Song Zheng now, I really want to gradually this child!"
