Chapter 61: Choosing a Song
"I've decided to cooperate with you without notifying my family. After sending Tash away, Wen Jia stood beside Fan Cheng and said.
"Oh, why?" Fan Cheng asked in surprise.
There is a big difference between cooperating with Wenjia and cooperating with Wenjia's family.
Working with her family, Fan Cheng may only account for a small share, but with her family's ability, maybe she will open restaurants in the entire Northeast and even most cities in China in one go.
But if it is to cooperate with Wen Jia himself, Fan Cheng will take a lot of shares, but Wen Jia is likely to only be able to open one restaurant at first, almost starting from scratch, even if there is a higher share, Fan Cheng will still get very little benefit.
"At first, I thought you would only be able to cook traditional Japanese food, and I may like a small number of people in our family, but now I see that you have more surprising things, and these things seem to be suitable for modern taste, if you need to try a little bit, we can't do it alone, but your food is so mature, it is better for us to make it ourselves."
And, you see, your show is also on the right track, and I don't want to be bored for me to work in your program team all the time, so we might as well open a new store together, and the money we make will be ours at that time!" Wen Jia encouraged.
"Since you said so, of course I'm fine, as for what to divide it into, let's talk about it slowly in the future. Fan Cheng said.
Of course, Fan Cheng has no time to manage the opening of the store, so these things must be all controlled by Wen Jia, and another point worth paying attention to is that Fan Cheng has no money.
In the TV industry, especially doing such a good variety show, it is actually very profitable, but the money is earned in the name of the TV station, and his own remuneration is only at a normal level, and he has no hesitation to invest in the hardware construction of the TV station.
As a result, that night, when he mentioned this matter to Fan Xiaoqian, the girl was very interested.
"I'm going to invest, I'm going to take a stake!" she said with great interest.
"Do you have the money to participate in the shares?" asked Fan Cheng.
"Why not, I've been saving all the money since I was a child!" Fan Xiaoqian said.
"Really, how many are there?" Fan Cheng asked curiously.
"This number!" Fan Xiaoqian opened her white and tender palm.
"Five thousand? That's a lot, but it's not enough. Fan Cheng said.
"What 5,000! It's 50,000! See no, 50,000!" Fan Xiaoqian was full of anger.
"Fifty thousand!?Why are there so many ???" Fan Cheng was startled.
"Hey, hey, hey, Miss Ben is naturally beautiful, and she is the most popular everywhere, especially during the Chinese New Year, she is so soft to collect the New Year's money!" Fan Xiaoqian was proud.
"That can't be so much!? I may not even have 5,000 yuan for the New Year's Eve since I was a child!How can the gap between people be so big!" Fan Cheng felt for the first time that life was sometimes so extremely unfair.
"How about 50,000 yuan, is it enough to be a major shareholder?" asked Fan Xiaoqian.
"Do you take out all your savings in one go?" asked Fan Cheng.
"What are you afraid of, I believe that the third uncle will definitely not harm me!"
"This is business, it's not something I can control if I want to or not, and when the time comes, won't you cry if you lose money. Fan Cheng asked.
"Hehe, in fact, I asked the fourth uncle after you mentioned to Sister Wen Jia that you wanted to open a restaurant, and he said that since you have mastered a very rare and lost delicacy, and Sister Wen Jia and I are full of praise for this food, I believe that the quality is absolutely excellent, coupled with the strength of Sister Wen Jia's family, there is no reason to lose money no matter what!" Fan Xiaoqian said.
The fourth Fan Zheng is smart and has potential, Fan Cheng is also very optimistic about him, he is now waiting for Fan Zheng to graduate in the future, so that he can hand over most of the property in his hands to him to manage.
"The dead girl has already prepared, then you go and tell Wen Jia, if she agrees, we will take the same share. Fan Cheng said.
"Great!But third uncle, why did you say that Sister Wen Jia changed her mind again and wanted to cooperate with you alone?" Fan Xiaoqian suddenly asked.
"I didn't tell you, she wanted to manage it herself. Fan Cheng said.
"Is it really that simple? I don't think it's that simple......" Fan Xiaoqian said with her arms crossed.
"And why do you say that?"
"Is it possible that Sister Wen Jia wanted to find a reason to stay here, so she pulled you to cooperate?" Fan Xiaoqian asked.
"Don't be sentimental, if possible, I think the biggest possibility is that she has actually told her family, but her family thinks that my food or identity is unreliable and does not agree with this plan, so she decided to cooperate with me herself. Fan Cheng said.
"Third uncle, come on, her family doesn't believe you, but Sister Wen Jia and I both believe in you!" Fan Xiaoqian came over and patted Fan Cheng on the shoulder.
"What's the use of you believing me, in the future, your sister Wenjia is mainly responsible for the operation. Fan Cheng smiled.
"Third uncle, you don't understand, it's not the restaurant that I want you to cheer on, but to her family! Her family doesn't seem to believe in the Japanese food you master, but in fact she doesn't believe you as a person!"
"If you don't believe it, you can't believe it, and I can't force everyone to believe me. ”
"You don't understand! His family doesn't believe you, it must be because our family background is not as good as hers, and her family has the right mind, so the direction you have to work hard is to make achievements and become a star, so that you can be worthy of Sister Wen Jia!" Fan Xiaoqian said.
"I don't think my motivation to work hard is to be worthy of anyone, you mean, if I don't work hard, you will look down on me?" asked Fan Cheng.
"I, I'm different! You're my third uncle, we're a family!"
"Okay, okay, I believe you. Fan Cheng smiled helplessly.
Wen Jia went to prepare for the new store, while Fan Cheng continued to work on the TV station.
The Curry Showdown episode will air next week, and earlier in Fan Cheng's Curry Showdown episode, Wen Jia's sister Wen Zhen starred in the episode, which aired on TV.
In addition to the audience group who originally watched the show, this episode of the show also didn't get much attention, and even the artists who participated in the show didn't pay much attention to it, like Wen Zhen, don't look at it because she was pulled by her sister to help, but to be honest, she actually doesn't know much about Fan Cheng and this show, as for what she wants to see, I saw all those delicacies during the filming of the show, and I have played all kinds of stalks, so I feel that there is nothing to see anymore.
Wen Zhen didn't even know when she was participating in that episode.
She can't be said to be busy but very annoyed recently, because she has not been able to receive satisfactory songs for a long time, and recently she has participated in variety shows that the company was not allowed to participate in casually, so these days, she has been nesting in the company headquarters of the magic capital, reviewing the songs and behaving a little bit at the same time.
With her, there were also the company's composers and managers, and a group of people were constantly searching the company's music library in the studio.
As one of the three major international music companies in China, Universal's music library is also of high quality, and at this point in time in 2000, Universal's music library has been entered into the computer, but there are still quite a few new songs piled together, waiting for everyone to choose.
Wen Zhen casually flipped through the folder, and a sheet of music appeared in front of her.
"Hmm...... Hum hum ...... "She played softly like a piano with one hand on the table in front of her, and hummed the melody from the sheet music in her mouth.
In less than thirty seconds, she turned the page and whispered as if to herself: "I'm not singing nursery rhymes!"
In the second song, Wen Zhen continued to hum the song.
Thirty seconds later: "It's like playing two songs together, does this author know what he's writing!?"
In fact, when she speaks, her voice is a little low and quite soft, which sounds very charming, but the poisonous Chinese spoken in this tone is particularly harsh.
Song 3......
"Is this for Pavarotti?"
Song 4......
"Interesting, this melody is obviously plagiarized, Brother Liu, this kind of composer can also hand over music to the company!?" Wen Zhen took out a sheet of music and handed it to Liu Zhanyun, the chief producer of the company on the side.
Liu Zhanyun took the score: "I'll take a look at ......"
After reading the score at a glance and ten lines, he put the score in front of him and said, "I remember him, and I will notify the outside world later that I will not cooperate with him again." ”
"But, Xiao Zhen, aren't your requirements too high? It's been almost a year since we selected songs, and all nine songs are ready, just one main song is missing, and the company can't wait any longer." Liu Zhanyun said.
"I'm also in a hurry, but as you can see, these works are completely useless!" Wen Zhen said.
"What about the one I gave you before Shen Yanbin, didn't you leave it and say that you could consider it?" asked Liu Zhanyun.
Wen Zhen said: "Not long after his first album came out, that song was obviously brushed down from his first original album, and I don't want what others don't want." And when I think about it later, that song was too popular and kitsch. ”
"Only popular can be liked, your previous album is too unpopular, too high and low, and it will fall into the current state of not being embarrassed or embarrassed. Liu Zhanyun said.
"I just wanted a song that was both pop and quality at the same time. Wen Zhen said.
"Pop and elegance are in conflict, and it is undeniable that some works do take care of both aspects, but that kind of song is a classic that comes once in a few years! If all the producers are rushing for this kind of song, then the Chinese music scene will not be able to release ten albums a year! Let's try to balance pop and elegance in one album instead of one song, okay?" Liu Zhanyun felt that he was definitely a sincere teaching.
"Hmm...... Let's see, if it really doesn't work...... I'll think about it again......" Wen Zhen's tone loosened.
