Chapter 542, embarrassing memories!
Los Angeles, early morning.
The weather is nice today, and the wind is beautiful.
Li Zhifan was woken up by the little cherry at five o'clock, originally thought that the little guy was hungry, but after feeding, the little guy actually became more energetic, not only did he not sleep, but Li Zhifan changed her face and sobbed as soon as she turned her head.
Li Zhifan kept playing with her while dozing off, thinking that her parents should wake up at seven o'clock, and then she would be able to sleep again.
However, at a quarter past six, the mobile phone suddenly rang, and it was a video call from Zhou Ke.
Li Zhifan was still surprised, why did the call come so early today, and when he connected it, he saw Zhou Ke's sour face, and he was very dissatisfied.
"Do you know what time it is in the United States?"
Li Zhifan asked first.
"I don't know!" Zhou Ke said with a little sullenness, "I just finished recording the show, do you know?
"Impossible!"
Li Zhifan's old face turned red, but he quickly thought of the routine of the program team, "It must be that you are joking or playing some tricks on the show, right?"
"Then you don't have to worry about it!" Zhou Ke had a feeling of being pierced by a glance, and instantly changed the topic, "How is the baby?"
"Wake up, play!"
Li Zhifan turned his mobile phone and pointed at the little cherry lying on the bed.
At this time, the little guy had a pacifier in his mouth, his legs kicked hard, and when he found that the phone was facing her, his little eyes immediately turned around, and when he saw Zhou Ke on the screen, he instantly cracked his mouth and smiled.
"Cluck, cluck......"
Little Cherry immediately wanted to raise her head, but because of her lack of strength, she turned over and wanted to pounce on the phone screen.
Li Zhifan had no choice but to pick her up, then squeezed her little hand and greeted Zhou Ke on the screen: "Hey!
"Wow Wow Wow Wow ......"
In a bunch of incomprehensible baby babies, Little Cherry smiled happily and stretched out her hand to ask for a hug.
"Mom will be going back soon!" Zhou Kexiao's eyes were red, "Listen to your father's words at home, listen to your grandparents' grandfather's words, you know?"
"If she can understand, then we don't have to work so hard!" Li Zhifan said with a sigh.
Who knows, the little cherry in his arms seemed to understand his words, and his little hand slapped directly on Li Zhifan's mouth, wanting to push Li Zhifan's head away and dominate the screen by himself.
"Hahaha......"
Zhou Ke over there suddenly laughed, "Look at it, why can't Little Cherry understand?
Li Zhifan commanded the little cherry again, and asked in a baby's tone: "Then you help Dad ask Mom, is it eating Daddy's vinegar!"
"I hate it, why are you talking about this in front of the child!"
Zhou Ke pretended to be angry, "Okay, I won't tell you more, they're leaving!"
Then, I heard a noise on the phone, it was Wu Moli calling Zhou Ke's name.
"Goodbye to Mom!"
Li Zhifan pinched the little cherry and waved his hand, and then hung up the phone.
But Xiao Cherry was not satisfied, and stretched out her hand to ask for Li Zhifan's mobile phone, and when she saw that her mother was gone, her nose turned red all of a sudden, and then her eyes were socketed.
Every time a video call ends, Cherry will be like this.
Li Zhifan threw away the phone, hurriedly stood up with the little cherry, and staggered all over the ground, coaxing her to fall asleep quickly.
Now that he has figured out the pattern of Little Cherry, after she cries her nose, he will definitely fall asleep.
Sure enough, looking at her sleeping appearance, Li Zhifan finally breathed a sigh of relief and gently put her into the crib.
Lying on the bed in a daze, my mother came in and asked, as if she was asking him to eat, Li Zhifan didn't hear it too clearly, but at this moment he was finally relieved, his eyelids were heavy, and he fell asleep.
When Li Zhifan woke up again, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.
During this time, the day and night are reversed, basically sleeping during the day, going to Liu Yuan's place from half afternoon to evening, and coming back at night to look at the little cherry.
When he came to Liu Yuan's house, as soon as he entered the door, Song Song came up and said, "The master tape has come out, you come and listen to it!"
"Just baked, steaming!"
Liu Yuan also came up with a smile, grabbed Li Zhifan's arm and took him upstairs.
The mastering was not done here by Liu Yuan, but in another music company specializing in mastering and post-production.
This master tape is a full 18 Gs, but after compression, there is not much left.
After careful selection, the album retained 14 songs, one of which is a prelude to light music, Li Zhifan chose Chopin's "Raindrops" because this piano piece is not long, and the beautiful and soothing melody is very much in line with the overall rhythm of this album.
Listen to the whole master tape, and there is no problem with the ordering of each song.
And the content is rich and diverse, although there are more styles, it is not messy, and after a whole sheet is stopped, it is all a whole.
"Next time I go back to China, I can hand over the work!"
Li Zhifan said happily, "The company can also arrange the schedule for the release of the new album." ”
"This is the first time I've recorded an entire album in such a short period of time and with so few people!"
Liu Yuan patted Li Zhifan's arm and said, "It's you, most people estimate that they have to use at least a super large production team." ”
"Actually, there are a lot of people!"
Li Zhifan smiled, "Don't say those musicians, we didn't complete this post-production, we also used a lot of people over there, two mastering engineers used, and one album of other singers is enough." ”
"That's why I asked for excellence, and they matched them!"
Liu Yuan said, "I'm so happy today, come, let's go to my backyard for a drink!"
"Okay!" Song Song became greedy when he heard the wine, "Brother Yuan, you have to take out your bottle of wine from the French auction, and let Zhifan try it too!"
"Haha, you want to drink it!"
Liu Yuan waved his hand, "Okay, I'll open that bottle today." ”
……
When Li Zhifan finished the production of the album mastering and called back to China to inform the timeline, everyone over there was stunned, especially Yang Zihong, because he hadn't even finished K2m's new song "The Most Missed Season", but he didn't expect Li Zhifan to have finished producing a whole album.
The timeline immediately cooperated with Hua Na and Li Zhifan to hold a three-party video conference to exchange information at this time.
At this point, Li Zhifan can work from home comfortably, and all the things related to distribution and recording are handed over to Hua Na, and the publicity and copywriting planning are responsible for the timeline.
The two sides went out at the same time and worked together.
One day in mid-December.
In Li Zhifan's fan post bar, there was suddenly news that he was going to release a new album, and the release date of the album was exposed, which will be on February 1 next year.
"Really? Really? I've been looking forward to it for a long time, and it's finally going to be released!"
"Don't be a fake news, right? Fan Fan is so busy this year, it's a movie and a variety show, and he has to prepare an album, is it too late?"
"I haven't heard that Fan Fan is going to release a new album recently!"
"Timeline has pushed several newcomers this year, and will soon push the K2m combination, so it won't be easy on Zhifan!"
"What do you think, whose timeline is it? Zhifan is the chairman!"
"It doesn't seem to be anymore, now it's just a shareholder!"
"No matter what it is, it will definitely not be ignored, it will only be looked at more seriously, you know?"
"I'm looking forward to the new song!"
"yes, I don't know what the style will be!"
"Don't be too happy too early, it's just gossip, let's find the official to confirm it!"
"Hey, when you say that, why am I suddenly lost!"
"Let's go and ask, what if it's true!"
"Okay, let's find the Lord and ask ......"
“……”
Fans became active and contacted the official through various channels, and after receiving a positive reply from the timeline, the fans immediately became completely agitated and overjoyed.
This is a particularly strong new force, completely tap water, and took the initiative to promote Li Zhifan everywhere.
For a while, the news of Li Zhifan's new album immediately spread all over the Internet.
And on the way to spread, it naturally attracts a lot of investors.
As a result, the timeline is also busier, especially Liu Zexin, and the frequency of answering the phone has increased instantly.
Li Zhifan is the most commercially available, and all of them are under the banner of helping him do a national tour of his new album.
But in the commercial performance area, since there is a timeline now, it is impossible for outsiders to dominate this cake, and it is only possible to find a partner and give a small percentage of the share.
In addition, there is also the help of Hua Na in the commercial performance, after all, the timeline has Hua Na's shares, so all Li Zhifan's performances will be led by Hua Na.
This morning.
Liu Yuan made a phone call to Li Zhifan and asked him to sit at home.
Although the album is finished and the work is over, the two live so close that it is not a problem to go once.
However, when I arrived at Liu Yuan's house, I found that in addition to Liu Yuan, there were two other people.
"Zhifan, let me introduce you, these two are my old friends for many years!"
Liu Yuan pointed to one of the middle-aged people with a big belly and said, "This is Tom, Liu Yijian, the vice president of Huaya Company!"
Huaya Company is a mobile phone manufacturer in China, and its name is not smaller than that of Weiwo and Touch, but no matter how the top four sales change every year, it ranks fifth, opening a gap of double the sixth place, but it is always a little bit worse than the fourth.
"Mr. Liu is good!" Li Zhifan smiled, the other party took the initiative to reach out, and he also shook it.
"Just call me Thom, my friends call me that!" Liu Yijian is very business-like, giving people a look that he is not very close or very distant.
But the other took the initiative more, and before Liu Yuan could introduce him, he took the initiative to shake hands with Li Zhifan and introduced himself: "Hello Zhifan, I'm Wu Yufeng from Focus Video, and I'm mainly here to find you today!"
"Oh, what's the matter?" Li Zhifan said curiously.
"Then I'll say it straight!" Wu Yufeng said, "I heard that you are going to release a new album, I hope that our Focus Video can get the exclusive broadcast rights and premiere rights of your new song MV, and I hope you agree to come today!"
"But for this matter, we have to find the timeline!"
Li Zhifan said, "I am not personally responsible for these things, they are all arranged by the company!"
"It's not that I can't contact you Zhang Dong!"
Wu Yufeng smiled and squinted, "Let's call your company, we still have to make an appointment to find Mr. Zhang, and it's all scheduled until the end of the month, and it's New Year's Day by then, I'm not afraid it's too late!"
Li Zhifan smiled: "I have to say sorry to Mr. Wu first, although I want to release a new album, I haven't shot the MV yet, and the shooting plan has not been decided, you will come to find it now, are you in a hurry!"
"That's okay! we can help you plan and design!"
Wu Yufeng said, "It's an investment, no, Tom is also very interested!"
"Oh!" Li Zhifan looked at Liu Yijian, but he didn't look like an interested person.
"Then you have six contact information!" Li Zhifan said, "I'll go back and ask Zhang Dong to take the initiative to contact you, okay?"
"Okay, of course!" Wu Yufeng said, "There is another thing, that is, we want to invite you to come to the focus to do a song club, a small live-house kind." ”
Anyone who has been to a live-house knows that there is no ticket for this kind of performance, and the release of people at the door is a stamp on each person's hand, and the audience wants to show off that they have been to a Live-house of so-and-so, and the only thing that can prove it is the stamp on their hands.
Li Zhifan went to this kind of live-house once when he was in college, and he was very embarrassed at the time, and after taking his ex to buy a ticket, he stupidly asked someone for a bill, but the person who bought the ticket asked him to stretch out his hand with contempt, and the two of them stamped a stamp on the back of their hands.
At that time, Li Zhifan was still stupid and didn't know what this stamp meant, and only when he entered the venue did he know that this was the ticket stub.
So when Wu Yufeng talked about Live-house, Li Zhifan recalled this clip, and the embarrassment is still fresh in his memory.
Live-house has formed a brand, and although they are one of the mainstream websites, their music channel started with this and made a name for itself in the industry.
At the beginning, it was just a live-house that held live broadcasts from time to time, and many celebrities were invited, including those who were popular, those who were outdated, and those who had just debuted.
Later, after gradually becoming famous, it became a fixed every Saturday, and there were sponsors.
In the future, there will be live-houses not only on Saturdays, but also on Wednesdays and Fridays, and there will be folk music sessions, electronic music sessions, two-dimensional shows, and big-name shows.
The venue has also changed from a single deep town to a whole country.
Now, Focus's Live-house live broadcast requires members to watch, but there are still tens of thousands of people online at the same time at the lowest time, and at the highest, more than 5 million people watched online, although I don't know whether this data is true or false, but it is a sensation in the industry, causing many live video sites to imitate Focus.
"Okay!"
Li Zhifan agreed without much thought, "I'm still very interested in this live-house, but I have to discuss this matter with the company, and second, I definitely don't have time before New Year's Day, so I can only do it after New Year's Day." ”
"It's okay!"
As soon as Wu Yufeng heard Li Zhifan's promise, he became excited, nodded and said, "My plan is also to hope to cooperate with the release of your album, I heard that you will release an album on February 1 next year, right? We can set it around here!"
February 1st?
There is no definite news on Li Zhifan's side, and this February 1 was also uploaded on the Internet, so it can't be true.
But now there is no need to reveal to Wu Yufeng that this is fake news, let Liu Zexin take care of everything!
