Chapter 295: Super Bowl Plan (3)
As soon as he was so serious, his voice came out.
Leila is not a professional musician, and she only has two judgments about songs: good and bad. To her, Roy's voice was still good, at least the words were clear, so that people could understand what he was singing, and it didn't seem to be out of tune. That seems to meet her selection criteria, doesn't it?
"How's it going?" said Roy, pausing to ask her what she thought.
"Not bad. Leila gave him a more pertinent assessment.
Roy's "I knew it would be the answer" smile came to his face: "I said it earlier, I'm the best singing actor in Hollywood." ”
If he knew that she was good, it actually meant that he didn't sing out of tune and pronounce words clearly, and he would probably fall headlong to the ground. Don't forget how many lessons he took downstairs, and vocal music or something was just one of them, okay? Even if he didn't have as much sweat as martial arts, he had mastered everything he needed to learn.
Leila looked at him: "I was also serious just now, if I give you a song and let you sing it in front of tens of millions of people, can you sing it?"
Roy shrugged his shoulders and said nonchalantly, "It doesn't matter to me to a group of people or tens of millions of people, if you can prove it, you can try it." ”
Leila smiled wryly, how could she try this kind of thing? In fact, if you think about it carefully, it won't really let him sing it in front of tens of millions of people, this year's Super Bowl was held at Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego, as long as he can successfully sing it in front of the stadium audience, it will be no problem. The number of people is about 100,000 at most, right? She doesn't know the exact number, and she won't know until she contacts them.
"Recently, I've been protecting my voice and getting a vocal teacher to do a special lesson for you, and at the end of January I might let you go somewhere and sing a song. ”
"Somewhere?" Roy didn't understand why he was keeping it a secret, could it be something unsightly?
Leila didn't want to say anything more: "You'll know when the time comes, let's go get busy first." ”
"Okay. Roy suppressed his curiosity and gave her a plaintive look before pushing the door open.
Watching his figure disappear outside the door, she habitually tapped her fingers on the tabletop, lost in thought.
Judging by the extent just now, Roy should be able to do what she planned. Then the next question is where she is going to pick up one or a few songs that are good and can set off the atmosphere, not too difficult, and relatively easy to sing.
Thinking about it, it would be better to ask Louise about it, and Layla tells Demi to call someone to her office.
After listening to her words, Louise's face suddenly turned strange: "Layla, if it's used in the soundtrack of the movie, I can still know some of it, but if it's about pop songs, I can't."
The so-called crossing the line is like a mountain, and Leila also feels that she may be a little strong, but there is not much time, and it is undoubtedly very necessary for her to achieve a suitable song if she wants to achieve the plan.
Louise looked at her frowning brow, and also saw that she was thinking hard: "In the past, our company's film scores were contracted to small professional soundtrack companies. Those places are cheaper, and the production is crude, and to be honest, if they really have that much strength, they don't look down on our little money at all. ”
Later, the company grew, and a few musicians were added to the new talent plan. For example, that Mike Giacchino is good, but their strength is okay as a soundtrack, and it may be difficult for some strong people to make pop songs. It's hard for me to say exactly, after all, they are two different fields. ”
"Is there anyone who knows the author of a good pop song?"
Louise smiled wryly: "I do have friends who know some, but if you want to make the kind of song you request, I'm afraid it's still difficult to do." "It must be simple and popular, but it must be able to render the atmosphere, and it must be easy to sing, this is no longer a simple composition, it is simply to make a divine comedy.
If someone really made that kind of song, I'm afraid they wouldn't sell it to a company that made a movie, and if they were sold to a singer with a bit of influence, they would be able to get a lot of dividends through various sales channels, so why sell it to them here and only get a buyout money...... No matter how easily fooled musicians are, they won't believe it.
Leila sighed, it seemed that she was thinking too simply. Originally, I thought it would be easy to get a song, but now that I think about it, maybe her plan will break down here.
Waving her hand to get Louise back to work, she leaned back in her chair and looked up at the ceiling. Do you really want to abandon that plan? There are so many excellent songs in the future, if only they could be brought to the present. It's a pity that she can't write lyrics and music......
Suddenly, she sat up straight.
She doesn't know how to compose lyrics and music, but someone can! If she sings it and lets someone else record it according to the lyrics and melodies she sings, won't there be songs to use?
In her previous life, in order to attract sponsorship, she often went in and out of clubs and KTV and other places with some wealthy businessmen and second generations, and she didn't know much about English songs, but it can be said that each capital is a classic among the classics. Isn't it easy to choose a suitable one from the inside to use?
Thinking of this, she called Demi again: "Help me get Mike Giacchino." ”
"Okay. Demi answered and hurried out to make a call. The boss had gathered several people in the morning, and she guessed that there should be another big move to begin.
She wasn't wrong in her guess, but that big move had nothing to do with their company, but a big move from another company. Who told her boss not to do his job, he was not satisfied with doing a good job, and he had to make blind moves in other places.
Soon, Mike Giacchino was in the office.
"You're looking for me, boss. He stood a little cramped at his desk, looking at his idol.
God knows how happy he was that he chose to be here, and now he is a true soundtrack for several film soundtracks. Although it is only for the time being, he is only testing the waters for those young new directors, but he believes that one day he can become the soundtrack of the boss's movies with his own strength!
"Yes, Mike. Leila asked him to sit down across from her, "I came to you to do me a favor." ”
"Is there a new movie I need a soundtrack?"
"No, no, it's me personally who wants you to help me. ”
Mike looked at her quizzically, "Of course, if I can do it, you just do it." But he couldn't think of any other way he could help this talented director with magic than to score the film.
"I want to ask you, if I sing a song, can you compose it?"
