Chapter 81: The Man with Dreams
"Two songs? But I just need a theme song...... Did I hear it wrong? ”
Yu Bowen was stunned.
"You heard it right, it's two! I think the supporting actress running in a phoenix crown should also have a background music exclusive to her, to be honest, I like this girl who dares to love and hate, more than I like the well-behaved and cute heroine who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, so I think there should be two soundtracks. ”
Chen Mo nodded without hesitation, and said the reason why he must match two songs.
This "Honolulu Lovers", although the plot is actually not very complicated, but to be honest, how many plots of a really good film are complicated?
No matter which world it is, only a gold medal screenwriter plus an old actor and a powerful director can make a real brain-burning film. Ordinary people go to play that is basically a miserable end, and the film can only go to the theater for one, two, or three days, and then go offline to hit the street.
Most movie fans, when they go to the cinema to watch a movie, they are all for relaxation, and it is best not to even bring their brains, so the plot of the movie is simple, and the various conflicts are obvious, and then this simple plot can be rounded, then it can already be regarded as an excellent director in the eyes of fans.
There's no way, most directors in the world have the biggest ability to shoot simple movies in the clouds, mountains and fog, and in the end, the story can't be made up.
And it's all like this, those who still feel that it's not his fault that their movies hit the streets, it's that the audience's style is too low and their IQs are too low......
And this reason is also the biggest mystery of why there are so few good directors.
All right...... All in all, while relaxing the audience, it can also make the audience gain a little touch, a little emotion, etc., it is a good movie. If the audience watches the movie and wants to watch it a second time, then this film will basically be a box office hit.
Yu Bowen's "Honolulu Lovers", there are only two very simple plot lines, and they don't cry like most youth romance films, but several plot conflicts are set up beautifully, plus the excellent filter time, it looks really good.
Of course, if it weren't for that, Chen Mo would not have taken the initiative to add singing.
"Add an exclusive song to the supporting actress running part? I got someone to make a background music for that part, and of course it would be better if it turned into an interlude, huh...... Xiao Hei, are you sure you can write two songs at the same time, is it really no problem? ”
After listening to Chen Mo's explanation, Yu Bowen was obviously a little moved, he confessed the fact that he had made background music, and then expressed concern about whether Chen Mo's energy was enough.
"No problem!" Chen Mo replied with confidence, but before Director Xiaoyu could breathe a sigh of relief, Chen Mo said again: "Can you let me listen to the original theme song and that background music?" ”
The director's cut version was completely shown to Chen Mo, and Yu Bowen naturally wouldn't hide this kind of minutiae, so Chen Mo soon heard "Heart Flower" sung by Yu Duoer, as well as a purely musical interlude.
"How?"
After the music was played, Yu Bowen asked anxiously.
"Yu Duoer's voice is good, but the tone is more ruthless, she relies too much on singing skills, and her feelings are not deep enough, this heart flower should be written specifically for "Honolulu Lovers"?"
Chen Mo first said "Heart Flower".
That Yu Duoer is still good at singing, and she was born with a good voice, but as Chen Mo said, Yu Duoer's singing is more like showing off her skills, and she is so flowery that she can't stop. If you care too much about your singing skills, you will naturally be less likely to devote yourself to singing......
"It's kind of specially written for "Honolulu Lovers", and Vice President Zhou has seen my script before writing it."
Yu Bowen nodded in response.
Yu Bowen didn't say anything superfluous, in fact, from the time he got the tape sent by Yu Duoer's agent, and then listened to the song "Heart Flower" for the first time, Yu Bowen felt that this song always seemed to be a little bit worse, and then the more he cut the film, the stronger this feeling became, and when he cut out the promotional video and then used "Heart Flower" to match, the awkward feeling that was almost a little bit broke out in an instant.
Yu Bowen didn't ask for a revision, but after Yu Duoer procrastinated and changed it twice, the effect did not improve much, and they made it clear that they would not change it a third time. The meaning of Yu Duoer's agent's words is clearly - my Miss Duoer helps you sing the theme song, which is already very much for you as a street director, you love to use this song, you don't need to pull it down!
That is, out of respect for Zhou Taiping's uncle, Yu Bowen did not lose his temper, but only after Zhou Taiping was heard in the ward, he urgently found Chen Mo.
It seems that he didn't read the script carefully and carefully, and talked about the lyrics first - although he wrote the lyrics on the surface, they barely fit the content of the story partially, at least stronger than saliva songs, and belong to the general type of lyrics that are medium and upward. But in order to take care of Yu Duoer's vocal range, the treble of the chorus part was not pulled up at all, and the layering of the music was not enough, which was considered a ...... It's a failed theme song. ”
Chen Mo commented positively, he didn't mean to retaliate, he just said something.
"What about the background music for the supporting actress? How does it feel? ”
Yu Bowen didn't say anything, that Zhou Taiping was from his father's generation after all, so he just continued to ask.
"This background music is pretty good!"
Chen Mo gave an answer that surprised Yu Bowen.
"That means you don't have to change the background music?"
Yu Bowen can only understand Chen Mo's brief evaluation in this way.
"It's not." Chen Mo shook his head: "In this way, I'll sing two parts, and after singing, Director Yu, you can make your own decision and decide whether to replace the original theme song and background music, how about it?" ”
Of course it's not like that, Yu Bowen specially invited Chen Mo over, didn't he just want to change the theme song?
One is also listened to, and two are also listened to.
"That's it, I'll sing the theme song that is most suitable for this "Honolulu Lovers" in my mind."
After getting a positive answer, Chen Mo cleared his throat, took a deep breath, and began to sing-
What Chen Mo sang was a song with a melody and frustration, twists and turns, majestic but full of feelings.
The extremely impactful tune, coupled with the lyrics full of pictures and very suitable for the content of the movie, made Chen Mo even sing the chorus, and Yu Bowen, whose eyes were shining, shouted on the spot - "That's it!" That's the movie's theme song! ”
So Chen Mo ignored Yu Bowen's protest, stopped abruptly in the ** part of the song, and soon sang another song, a gentle and delicate song full of sorrow.
"It's changed, and the background music has to be changed! In the scene of the female supporting role, only this song is a perfect match! ”
This time, when Yu Bowen, who had learned his lesson, heard the end of the story, he finally patted his thighs and shouted with excitement.
Looking at Yu Bowen, who was so excited that he was about to scratch his ears and cheeks, Chen Mo felt that these two good songs were not lost.
This guy is a person who is really working hard for his own movies, he clearly has his own dreams, not just wants to comfort his father, so sooner or later...... He'll surpass his father's.
