Chapter 150: Piano Album
"How can I say it, if I don't draw it, how do I know if it will be better than Brother Le's legend of the warlock."
Zhang Yao said very irresponsibly: "Now I haven't thought about this problem yet, isn't it still two or three words before it can be finished, I really can't do something like a character design for two or three periods, it should be done." ”
"You haven't thought about what's going to be in the next book yet?"
Yang Tian was speechless and said, "Okay, you are indeed busy, and it is already a surprise that you can not delay the manuscript." ”
"Actually, I don't think you have to draw new works, it's okay to continue to paint soft-voiced girls."
He Lili said: "The light girl is so successful, it's a pity to give up like this, according to what you said before, the ending is that the four protagonists were admitted to the same university, in fact, I think you can draw the content of the university." There are also the protagonist's younger sisters, Hirasawa and Azusa Kaneno, who are also high school students, so it's okay to draw their stories. ”
"Light Girl" does have high school chapters and college chapters, which tell the story told by He Lili, but in Zhang Yao's opinion, this is completely a dog's tail continuation mink, anyway, he thinks it is completely uninteresting.
"Sister He, if you don't squeeze out a drop of Zuihou's value, you can't learn this situation in District 11."
Zhang Yao made a joke and said: "I really don't want to paint anymore with a light girl, and insisting on continuing to paint is just destroying the image in the reader's heart." ”
"If we were like the editorial department of the island country, we would not discuss with you, but pressure you to continue drawing."
He Lili also smiled: "It's not that you haven't thought of what to paint until now, so I suggested this." ”
Zhang Yao calculated the time and said, "I have to go to Poland once in a month." At that time, the soft-voiced girl should be finished. I'll talk about it when I get back. It won't take long. ”
"I forgot that the Musicians Guild has announced that you will represent the Celestial Empire in the Chopin International Piano Competition."
Yang Tian said with a smile: "Although we admire your omnipotence, but the more versatile you are, the more worried we are, the Celestial Empire has finally appeared as a cartoonist like you, but it turns out to be a ticket play, and I am really worried about when you will suddenly say that you will close the pen." ”
"Brother Yang, you have to worry too much about this, music and painting are not multiple-choice questions. I'm definitely going to work together. ”
Now fans don't know his identity as a cartoonist, and if they do, they probably will worry about when he will give up singing and draw comics full-time.
After a day of reunion with Yang Tian and their responsible editors, they finally got on the plane and returned to Qingxi the next day, Ai Xiaoqi and Asuka came to pick up the plane very face-saving, Zhang Yao spread his hands and smiled as soon as he saw them out of the terminal: "I haven't seen you for a long time, I want to die of you, come and let me hug and see if you two have lost weight." ”
"Take advantage of the advantages and get out of the way, who said we are here to pick you up, Asuka and I are here to pick up Sister Xiaoyi."
Ai Xiaoqi directly threw off Zhang Yao. Holding Zheng Xiaoyi's arm, he walked forward, Zhang Yao was speechless. said: "You are still driving my car, and you have to look at the face of the Buddha without looking at the monk's face, right?" ”
"You two have always been like this, which is very enviable."
Hoshino Asuka smiled and said, "Let's go, during the time you are away, Qi-chan doesn't seem to have the energy to do anything, but she actually misses you very much." ”
Along the way, he talked about Red Cola and the TV animation "Light Girl" and returned to the studio, and the first thing Zheng Xiaoyi did after returning was to give the two assistants a few days off, and they were also very tired after such a long business trip.
After being away for several months, the studio has not changed much, Zheng Xiaoyi's office is as it is, and the table will be restored to its original state after cleaning.
The reception room in the studio, where few people come, has always been their small world, and as soon as they entered, Zhang Yao directly lay down and occupied a sofa, and after chattering, Ai Xiaoqi asked: "Hey, what is the specific number of the song competition?" ”
"Why are you asking this?"
Zhang Yao asked weakly, it was nothing, but as soon as he returned to the studio, he felt lazy, lying on the sofa and didn't want to move, Ai Xiaoqi said: "Nonsense, of course it's because I want to go." ”
"You're not competing, and it's definitely not a holiday, so what are you going to do?"
Zhang Yao then asked, Ai Xiaoqi rolled her eyes and said: "How can there be so much nonsense, can't I ask for leave if I don't have a holiday, quickly say what the specific number is, I can arrange it." ”
"It's November 20th, and there should be an announcement time on the official website."
Zheng Xiao is also not a top student, it doesn't matter whether she asks for leave or skips class directly, Zhang Yao is quite happy to take her with her, and having a companion is not so boring.
"There's still more than a month to go, but there's no hurry."
Ai Xiaoqi muttered and continued: "Sister Xiaoyi, do you want to go together?" Asuka, you should come along, everyone goes, have fun for a few days and then come back, it will be considered a vacation. ”
"I really want to, but unfortunately I can't go."
Hoshino Asuka shook her head and said, "I'm an exchange student, and it's very troublesome to violate discipline, so I can only bring me a gift when you come back." ”
"I can't either."
Zheng Xiao also said: "I discussed with Zhang Yao before, and when I come back, I have to start preparing for the album. ”
"That's a pity."
Hearing that Zheng Xiaoyi and Hoshino Asuka were not going, Ai Xiaoqi became a little uninterested, and said: "It's only a little more than a month before the competition, can Zhang Yao write so many songs in one album?" Sister Xiaoyi, it's better to go, it won't take a few days anyway. ”
"Don't try to let me go into the water, you're doomed to be disappointed."
Zheng Xiaoyi said with a smile: "I have already invited songs with Li Youwei and Li Youwei, and I have written some myself, Zhang Yao only needs to write me three or four albums, but I can't just wait for him to come back." ”
Although Zhang Yao has restrained the speed of "creation", the image of "fast gunman" is still popular with the people, and they all believe that it is no problem for him to come up with four songs a month, and there is an excuse, it can be said that Zheng Xiaoyi has already written again during the time when he went to filming.
Ai Xiaoqi has been made into the image of a mature woman, and the songs are still selected in this direction, which is not a difficult thing, Anita Mui and Faye Wong still have many classic songs, and some other female singers may not have these two big names, but there are also classic songs, such as Lin Yilian.
"It's just four songs, wrapped around me."
Zhang Yao patted his chest and said: "But before releasing the album, there is one more thing not to forget, that is, to release my two piano songs." The scores are already all over the place, and it's amazing to not see the album yet. ”
"The copyright to Alice is in the hands of our Miss Alice, and it depends on whether she gives us the right to authorize it."
Zheng Xiaoyi looked at Ai Xiaoqi teasingly, and Ai Xiaoqi pouted and said: "My copyright is also given by others, and other authors have spoken, how dare I deny it, if it weren't for him, my grandparents would have helped me distribute it a long time ago." ”
"Isn't that because you're worried that he won't make money?"
Zheng Xiaoyi's smile became even bigger, and said: "It takes time for Zhang Yao to write songs, and it also takes time to contact Chumen and Li Youwei, and it just so happens that I have nothing to do during this period, so let's be busy with this." ”
Piano album Zhang Yao really doesn't know much, in his previous life, his dream was to release a pop album, but this goal was not realized, and he never dared to think about such a thing as a piano album, because he didn't play much, and it was all other people's tunes.
If it weren't for the fact that those masters in this time and space didn't exist, he wouldn't dare to act as a big-tailed wolf, and he had no concept of piano album sales, but "To Alice" and "Moonlight Song" are both Shijie famous songs, and the sales shouldn't be bad, right?
It's not necessarily higher than his pop albums, the range of pop songs is in the Chinese-speaking circle, and piano music is truly music without borders, and there should be no pressure on the sales of all shijie to exceed three million.
No one pays attention to who the author of "To Alice" is, this piece has already become popular by word of mouth, and if it wins the Chopin International Piano Competition, it will definitely boost the sales of the album, right?
At that time, he will not only be the new generation of kings in the Chinese music scene, but a world-renowned pianist.
"By the way, I almost forgot about one more thing."
Zheng Xiaoyi said suddenly: "Now that Han Yu is still performing outside, his arrangements in the contract will be almost finished in a few days." ”
"Sister Xiaoyi, you are squeezing him to death, Han Yu has rarely had time to stay in Qingxi in the past year."
"I think this kind of work intensity is okay, but the stars in our country's entertainment industry are busier than this."
Hoshino Asuka refuted Ai Xiaoqi's words and said with a smile: "Celebrities should all be like this, there are not many like Zhang Yao, mainly because I am afraid that if I rest for too long, my popularity will plummet." ”
Although Zhang Yao rarely participates in activities, he has always attracted much attention, from the previous identity issue, to the plagiarism storm after the exposure, to the red coke, etc., he has never faded out of the public eye.
In addition, the countless classic songs he holds in his hands are also a guarantee that all songs can be very popular, even if they are forgotten in a short period of time, it doesn't matter, as soon as the spotlight appears, it will shine again, except for him, any big name including the godfather level Li Youwei will not have such confidence, because his songs have not been tested by time and listeners.
And Zhang Yao is still the boss, Zheng Xiao also needs him from the beginning, and now he has developed a relationship, and he has always been given enough freedom, so there is such a situation, which is indeed difficult to replicate.
"Since the notice is gone, then Han Yu will definitely have to come back."
Zhang Yao said: "Let's talk about this matter when he comes back." (To be continued......)
