Chapter 612: The Doorway to Choosing a Song
When Gu Xiaofan and Chen Keer entered the studio, Li Palmsheng, Lin Zhixuan, Cao Ge, Huang Qishan, Han Lei, Li Jian, and the six singers did not start rehearsals, but first held their own song lists and were discussing. 【】
Among the 7 singers, only the 17-year-old girl Deng Ziqi is not there, and she doesn't know where she ran away.
Generally, viewers who sit and watch TV at home think that music programs can be selected temporarily, and singers can sing whatever songs they want, but in fact, this is a huge misunderstanding.
In fact, before the show starts, any singing show will let the singer choose all the songs that he is likely to sing in the show at the beginning.
Assign different songs to different people to avoid conflicts, if different singers sing the same song, it is not good for the singer or the show, this is also the tacit understanding between everyone.
And because the show will not repeat the rules of song selection, the first season of the music program is the best-looking, and the more it goes to the later seasons, the more difficult it will be, because the area of selecting songs will become narrower and narrower, "I Am a Singer" and "The Voice of China", and it is also more and more difficult to choose songs later.
Moreover, there is another important significance of determining the song list in advance, that is, the program team can buy the right to play the song on the TV program, without the right to play, no song can appear on the TV program.
Due to the tight time, today it is not only the singer who chooses the song, but also the direct purchase of the playback copyright of the agreed song.
As soon as Gu Xiaofan came in, he was the first to greet Li Palmsheng: "Brother Li, hello." "Go up and shake hands.
Li Palmsheng smiled and said: "Director Gu, I am the one who has admired the name for a long time, thank you for the song you wrote for me." ”
All the singers came over, surrounding Gu Xiaofan, the producer and music director, in the middle, among the six singers, Taiwanese singer Cao Ge was the most urgent, and directly took the song list and handed it to Gu Xiaofan:
"Director Gu, look, this is the song I chose."
Gu Xiaofan smiled and said, "Come one by one." After roughly passing everyone's song list, he also nodded secretly, which is similar to the original version of "I Am a Singer" he watched in the system.
At this time, Chen Keer reminded him in a low voice: "Let's choose more alternative tracks, wait." Vice President Ma of the China Music Copyright Association will come over in person, and not all songs may be able to get the copyright for playback. ”
"Vice President Ma?" Gu Xiaofan didn't understand the details, he thought that the playback copyright of the song should be negotiated with various record companies.
Chen Keer said: "All the songs broadcast in the program must be authorized, originally we should have negotiated with the copyright record companies one by one, but in 1997, the copyright of Chinese music works was negotiated with various record companies, and the copyright of all Chinese music was managed by the Copyright Society...... So now it's very convenient for us to buy the broadcast rights of the songs. ”
Gu Xiaofan was curious, deliberately deflated with Guangdong Guopu, and asked in a low voice, "This vice president of the horse...... Isn't it your daddy's best friend again? ”
The vice president of the Chinese Music Anthology Association, who came all the way to Hong Kong, of course, could not be just for his Gu Xiaofan's face.
"Well, he is indeed a friend of Chairman Chen." Chen Keer didn't smile: "This time he promised to help us with all his might." ”
When Gu Xiaofan heard this, Chen Ke'er was done again, and couldn't help but sigh with relief:
"Your daddy is really full of peach and plums~ If you don't accept it, you can't do it~ Whoever marries you, it will be much easier to do anything in the film and television industry in the future, I'm very curious now, who is it, even our Miss Chen can't look down on it?"
When Chen Ke'er heard this, she couldn't help glaring at him, and after Gu Xiaofan became more familiar with her, she became more and more troubled and joking.
The two chatted for a while, but they still didn't see Deng Ziqi, just now she had obviously arrived first, but why is she missing now, Chen Keer looked for her everywhere but couldn't find her, and her agent kept calling her, but she didn't answer.
"This little girl is not here at such an important time today, how can she choose a song?" Chen Ke'er said a little anxiously.
But the other singers next to him felt that this was not what it meant, one was eliminated in two weeks, and this little girl would definitely be eliminated in the first week no matter how she chose.
was looking for it, at this time, more than ten people came in the studio, led by a man of thirty-five or six, tall and thin, heroic, and greeted Gu Xiaofan as soon as he came in:
"Let Director Gu, Deputy Planner Chen have been waiting for a long time, there are some traffic jams on the road, sorry for being late."
In the past year, Gu Xiaofan has dealt with the director of the Film Bureau, the chairman of China Film, and the head of Warner.
He only has great respect for the actors and singers in his industry, but he is not interested in these public officials, and Gu Xiaofan, the "billion director", has experienced a lot after the Spring Festival Gala and the torch incident, and he naturally has a majestic atmosphere.
China Music Works Copyright Association, although it sounds very famous, but it is not as big as the Film Bureau, the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television and other departments, Gu Xiaofan just nodded and smiled:
"President Ma, we should go in person, I'm sorry, and I'm sorry to make you go for trouble."
Looking at the appearance of Vice President Ma, this guy is dark-skinned, handsome, and very upright, but with so many people, he looks official, and he seems to like to talk about style.
Vice President Ma had long heard of Gu Xiaofan, the name of the "billion director", and originally just thought that he was just a talented young man who didn't know anything about personnel, but when I saw him today, I felt that he looked calm, neither humble nor arrogant, far beyond his age of stability, and thought: "Little director, a bit of a doorway." ”
Gu Xiaofan was also not polite, and sat in the first row of the audience in the studio with the people of the Writers Association.
Vice President Ma met with the singers, and all the polite words came, Li Palmsheng and others thought: "This Vice President Ma has no shelf, so polite." ”
Only Gu Xiaofan found that Vice President Ma's eyes kept glancing at Chen Keer's delicate little face from time to time, looking very respectful, and kept saying: "When my child was full moon, Chairman Chen was too polite. ”
It seems that Chen Yongqi must have wrapped a big red envelope for the young and promising Vice President Ma when he got married, otherwise how could this surnamed Ma be so polite and respectful.
After saying a few more words, Chen Keer also handed the song list to Vice President Ma and asked him to see which ones they could play in "I Am a Singer".
Vice President Ma, but he smiled bitterly, and directly took the pen and started to draw on the song list, about nearly a hundred songs, and he crossed out nearly 70 songs!
At this moment, everyone was stunned, was there a mistake, more than 3 points and 2 points were crossed, how did they participate in the show!?
Among them, most of them are folk songs and the like chosen by Han Lei, and there are many pop songs left.
Before all the singers had time to protest, they saw Vice President Ma turn his head and say, "Director Zhao, tell me what's going on?" ”
At this time, I saw a very fat man in his forties standing up, wiping his sweat and complaining:
"Two weeks ago, Bai Jian and Bai Planning of Phoenix Satellite TV came to Wei "The Voice of China" to talk about copyright, we thought it was Chairman Chen's intention, so he signed a lot of songs...... to avoid vicious competition. ”
