Chapter 58: MV Director
If "No If" is Su Youxia's small test to enter the music world, then "Heavenly Palace" is Su Youxia's post-seal work in the music world.
"Heavenly Palace" contains a total of ten songs, all of which were written and composed by Qin Shi, and even the mixing and background music were all handled by him, which can be said to be a real painstaking work.
Leng Yue invited the top green pine band in China to play the accompaniment of the songs, and it took three full days to finally record ten songs.
Just after Qin Shi thought that the song was successfully recorded, he didn't expect Leng Yue to propose one thing.
The three title songs of "Heavenly Palace" are going to shoot the MV!
Hearing Leng Yue say that he was going to shoot the MV, Qin Shi also slapped his head, and he really forgot about this stubble.
"It's a shame that you're still another Xia boyfriend, and you don't even remember this."
Leng Yue glanced at Qin Shi and said with some displeasure.
"I'm sorry."
Qin Shi also said apologetically.
"Sister Leng, this can't be blamed on Qin Shi, he's so busy these days."
Su Youxia stood aside and explained to Qin Shi.
She sees how busy Qin Shi is these days, "Charlotte's Troubles" has entered the final stage of filming, while in order to check the quality of the film, she also has to work on "Heavenly Palace", Qin Shi runs the recording studio and the crew every day, and he can't even take care of eating.
"I've been contacting Li Huaiyu to shoot the MV for three title songs, but I don't know if he has a schedule."
Leng Yue glanced at Qin Shi and then said.
"Li Huaiyu?"
Hearing Leng Yue mention this name, Qin Shi also remembered some past events, Li Huaiyu He had heard of this person, because Li Huaiyu was also a student of Jiangnan University, and the most important thing is that six years ago, Li Huaiyu was the top director of shooting MV in China, and some of his whimsical ideas were fused with MV, often creating a very good effect.
If Su Youxia's "Heavenly Palace" can be handled by Li Huaiyu to handle the MV, it is indeed a very good choice.
"Mr. Leng, Li Huaiyu's assistant said that he has been a little busy recently, and it may be difficult to shoot three MVs in a week."
At this time, Leng Yue's secretary also walked into the recording studio and said to Leng Yue.
"No schedule?"
Hearing this, Leng Yue's brows were also furrowed, if this is the case, then the MV will have to be replaced.
Li Huaiyu is not the only one in the entertainment industry who can shoot MVs, if Leng Yue now releases the news that Su Youxia is afraid of MVs, I am afraid that there will be directors who don't know how many will come to the door to rush to run, and even don't want money.
Because Su Youxia herself is a top actress in China, and this is her first solo album, I don't know how many second- and third-rate directors want to take advantage of Su Youxia's fame.
But there is only one thing that Leng Yue considers, and that is the quality of the MV.
Li Huaiyu, as the first MV director in China, his works are well-known, whether it is from the perspective of MV theme creativity or shooting technology, it is an irreconcilable masterpiece.
And there is another reason why Leng Yue wants to ask Li Huaiyu to produce the MV of these three songs, that is, Li Huaiyu's influence in the Chinese music scene, Su Youxia's fame and strength, plus Li Huaiyu's fame and strength, this album can be said to have exploded before it is officially launched.
As Su Youxia's agent, Leng Yue considered this.
"Can't you shorten the shooting cycle?"
Leng Yue asked her secretary.
"Li Huaiyu is filming the MV of Zhong Youhan's new album."
At this time, Su Youxia suddenly spoke, looked at the secretary and asked.
"Yes."
Hearing Su Youxia say this, a light flashed in the secretary's eyes, and before he could say it, Su Youxia actually knew it.
"By the way, Youhan is also going to release a new album in the near future, so it's no wonder."
Leng Yue also suddenly realized at this time that if Li Huaiyu was filming the MV for Zhong Youhan, there was really nothing to do.
"Sister Leng, why don't you find someone else to shoot, aren't there several top directors in China?"
Su Youxia suggested.
"The domestic music scene is now declining more and more, compared with European and American countries, as well as Japan and South Korea, the development is too slow, and the decline of the record industry has also led to the fact that MV directors are becoming more and more rare, and there are too few directors who can really shoot good MVs."
Leng Yue said with regret, she is not only Su Youxia's agent, but also the general manager of Midsummer Entertainment Company, there are many artists under their company, in addition to being responsible for Su Youxia's acting career, she also takes care of the company's daily life, which makes her quite aware of the development of the industry.
The Chinese music scene has plummeted since its peak in the 90s, and when Japanese and Korean songs are going global, the songs of the Chinese music scene are resting on their laurels and stagnating.
One of the reasons why she wants Su Youxia to enter the music scene is that she hopes that Su Youxia can first promote Chinese songs to Asia, and then to the world.
"As far as I know, Ma Junsheng is also very good at shooting MVs."
Qin Shi thought of a few people in his mind, all of whom were MV directors who were somewhat famous in the circle.
But as soon as he proposed Ma Junsheng's name, he was vetoed by Leng Yue, on the grounds that his reputation was not enough, and it was not half a star worse than Li Huaiyu.
"What about Zheng Qiu?"
"His MV lacks creativity."
Leng Yue vetoed Qin Shi's proposal again and replied coldly.
"Do you want to find a famous and powerful director for Su Youxia?"
Qin Shi didn't care about Leng Yue's cold attitude, looked at her and asked.
"That's nature."
Leng Yue replied without raising her head, in her opinion, the question Qin Shi asked was simply asked in vain.
"I have a good candidate, and I fit your two criteria perfectly."
Qin Shi looked at Leng Yue with his eyes and said solemnly.
"-------" Leng Yue raised her head and glanced at Qin Shi, her face was a little unkind. "Tell me, is there anyone else in the circle who I have forgotten?"
"You know this person."
A smile crossed the corner of Qin Shi's mouth, and he said.
Su Youxia sat aside, the conversation between Qin Shi and Leng Yue seemed to be in her eyes, and when she saw the smile on the corner of Qin Shi's mouth, she knew what Qin Shi was going to say, but she didn't say it, because she felt that it would be more fun for Qin Shi to say this person's name by himself.
"That man is standing right in front of you."
A positive color appeared in Qin Shi's eyes, and he said to Leng Yue.
"Do you think you're going to make that low-budget movie and make a music video?"
Hearing Qin Shi's answer, Leng Yueqiang resisted the idea of beating Qin Shi, and asked coldly, his words full of disdain.
"First of all, I'm also very famous, I don't believe you can go to the Internet and do a survey."
"Second, I'll shoot things too, and I don't believe I can show you clips from the movies I directed."
"With all that said, don't you think I'm the best candidate?"
Qin Shi said calmly with a faint smile on his face.
