Chapter 12 It's hard not to be popular

Ask for recommendations, ask for collections, ask for clicks, this book has 200,000 manuscripts, you can read it with confidence, and you will never be a eunuch.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

The reply came the next day, and Liu Zhizhe, CEO of Hong Kong PolyGram, agreed to Wei Xiong's cooperation proposal and all requirements, but Liu Zhizhe also put forward a condition, that is, if Wei Xiong wants to release another record in the future, under the same conditions, Polygram has the right of priority to cooperate.

Wei Xiong had no opinion, and the cooperation agreement was soon officially signed. The reason why it can go so smoothly is the song written by Wei Xiong.

Bai Ping and Le Zhenghong took the manuscripts of ten songs with them when they left, and then found several gold medal producers in the company to do the identification, and the results were expected to be the same - the ten songs are all classics, as long as they are properly promoted, they can become popular if they find an ordinary newcomer to sing.

It was this result that led Liu Zhizhe, the chief executive of Hong Kong-based Polygram, to agree to this cooperation, which was almost impossible for a newcomer. It is not only because of the profitability of this cooperation itself, but also because of the good relationship with Wei Xiong, and the willingness of the two sides to maintain long-term cooperation.

As for why Wei Xiong handed over the manuscript to Bai Ping and Le Zhenghong so confidently, the reason is very simple, he has registered the copyright of these ten songs, and he is not worried about Polygram's disgraceful means at all. Of course, he also believes that a company as big as PolyGram will not be so shameless.

It is worth mentioning that when several gold medal producers who were brought in to do the appraisal heard that these ten songs would be made into an album, everyone once again unanimously objected. In their opinion, each of these ten songs can be used as the title song of the album, and it is completely wasteful to concentrate ten songs on one album, and the most reasonable thing to do is to have two songs for each of the ten songs, divided evenly among the five albums.

When signing the contract, Liu Zhizhe also put forward this proposal, but was rejected by Wei Xiong with a smile, his ambition is not in music, this time he will cooperate with Polygram just to earn his own entrepreneurial funds, and he still thinks about the two scripts that were cast.

Originally, his idea was to start as a screenwriter, and then invest in movies by himself after he had enough contacts and funds, and with countless classic movies in his head, he believed that he would definitely be able to break into his own sky in the film industry. It's a pity that it backfired, and the script that was voted out never responded.

At this time, an unexpected encounter with Le Zhenghong at a restaurant in Taipei made him make a decision - to invest in his own film, and the funds came from the share of the record released by partnering with Polygram. So Liu Zhizhe's proposal is completely unnecessary in his opinion.

Standing on the side of the road, looking back at the building behind him, Wei Xiong couldn't help but laugh dumbly, when he proposed to resign just now, Manager Liu bounced up directly from the chair, that look of surprise and overwhelmed expression felt funny when he thought about it, although Manager Liu tried his best to keep it, but Wei Xiong still resolutely resigned, since the moment he got the memory of the future, his heart was not in the interstellar company, and now he is very busy.

That's right, he's really busy, he's going to go to Polygram right now to record, and the work started yesterday. In the past, he only knew that celebrities not only looked beautiful, but also worked hard, and when he really became one of them, he really realized how hard it was.

Let's take yesterday as an example, it took a whole day to record a song, and the whole process was repeated nearly 20 times, and those who stopped singing for a while are not counted, and this speed is said to be fast, and there are many people who can't record a song in a few days.

When Wei Xiong arrived at the studio, everyone was ready.

"Ah Xiong, you take a break, drink a glass of water to moisten your throat, and start recording in ten minutes. ”

The one who spoke was a middle-aged man named Cao Zhengnan, one of the gold medal producers of Hong Kong Polygram, who had supervised the production of records for famous singers such as Xu Guanjie and Zhong Zhentao, and this time served as the deputy producer of Wei Xiong Records and assisted in recording. As for the producer of the record, it is naturally Wei Xiong himself.

Ten minutes later, the recording officially began, Wei Xiong stood in front of the microphone and made an OK gesture towards the control room, and the music immediately sounded-

You've had the most beautiful encounter

You've had some ups and downs

You've been drunk and hurt for the last time

But I find that I think you can't live without

In your eyes every time you complain

Like I never know how to give you tenderness

Stop telling us that we've broken up already

……

I would like to cry silently

I really want to go with you for the rest of my life

Even if the horizon and cape have changed somewhat

There is only one thing in the wind in life

Don't want to stay alone

But please don't forget the old love

I would like to cry silently

I really want to go with you for the rest of my life

In my heart you think of you in the sea

You can't live without it in this life

……

Compared with the first recording yesterday, Wei Xiong's state today is much better, and after singing it again, he walked to the control room to listen to the playback just now.

"Except for a few flaws, this time you have sung perfectly, it seems that you are in a good state today. ”

Cao Zhengnan seemed very happy, as a music producer, he was most happy that in addition to the big sales of the record, everything went smoothly when recording.

"Hehe, I think so too. Wei Xiong is also very happy, after he returned to the apartment after recording yesterday, he learned the lessons of the daytime recording, and took out all the songs in the album to review, especially the song "I Just Want to Go with You for the Life" to be recorded today is the focus of the review.

"Since you're in such good shape, you have to hurry up and keep up the good work. ”

The two discussed a few things that needed to be paid attention to or improved when singing, and Wei Xiong started the second recording, and he sang so engagedly that he didn't even notice that no one came in the control room.

Bai Ping made a silent gesture towards Cao Zhengnan, then picked up a headset and put it on. After a while, she took off the headphones, and Cao Zhengnan saw it and took off the headphones as well.

"How's his voice? I've only heard from the music director that his singing skills are good, but I haven't heard it myself. ”

"He has a good voice, a little hoarse, very penetrating, and his singing skills are quite professional. ”

"With his genius creative ability, excellent voice and singing skills, coupled with his handsome appearance, it seems that he can't be popular if he doesn't want to. ”

"I heard that he just signed a cooperation agreement with the company, and he is not considered an artist under the company?"

That's right, he is an ambitious person, and he has advantages, so he is naturally unwilling to live under others. Okay, I won't affect your work, and send a piece of black tape to my office before getting off work in the afternoon. I can't wait to hear the full version. ”

After saying that, Bai Ping left, and Cao Zhengnan turned his head to look at Wei Xiong, who was separated from him by glass, with a thoughtful look on his face.
