Chapter 345: The Idea of a New Album
"Knock knock!"
In the room, just finished a day's filming of the movie "Kung Fu", Menjie was resting comfortably, and suddenly there was a few rhythmic knocks at the door, which was not the rhythm of Zhao Dong's usual knocks.
"Who!"
shouted helplessly in the room, and the doorman, who was lazily nesting on the sofa like a cat, dragged his tired body to the ground with his shoes on, ready to go over and open the door.
Because in the crew of the movie "Myth", it has been more than a month, and because he has not followed the filming, Menjie has accumulated a large number of scenes, which are basically concentrated in this more than one month, and the daily working time is naturally very long.
Whenever he left the crew and returned to the hotel to rest, Menjie would be very tired, even if Zhao Dong knocked on the door, Menjie would not be willing to go over and open the door.
Of course, Zhao Dong is also very aware of Menjie's mental state at this time of day, if there is no real matter, he will definitely not come over to disturb Menjie, unless there is really something.
"Huh?"
After opening the door and seeing the visitor, Menjie's eyes suddenly widened, and he had a feeling of disbelief, and his exhaustion was instantaneous, and he said in astonishment, "Sister Mei, why are you here?!" ”
Obviously, it is among the Huayi Brothers in the company that is responsible for the artist management of Menjie, Mei Mei!
"There's another big star in our company, how could I not come and take a look?!"
Seeing Menjie's surprised look, Mei Mei couldn't help but chuckle and said with a smile, "What? Aren't you going to invite me in and sit down? ”
"No, no, Sister Mei, hurry up and come in and sit!"
Menjie, who was awakened by Mei Mei's ridicule, finally came to his senses. Hurriedly got out of the way and invited Mei Mei into the house very warmly.
"Menjie, I didn't expect that the new album is selling so well, and now many senior executives in the company will praise you when they meet!"
Sitting on the sofa, drinking who Menjie poured for her, Mei Mei looked at Menjie with a rather strange gaze, and couldn't help but whisper.
A few days ago, Menjie's second solo album "In My Singing". There is less than an hour left before it is taken off the shelves, and the album sales of 2.48 million have already shocked all the high-level positions of Huayi Brothers, but then, in the last half an hour. Menjie's performance has climbed again, increasing sales by more than 300,000 and nearly 400,000. After reaching a terrifying 2.86 million in one fell swoop. All the top management of the company were collectively shocked!
Originally, in the eyes of the senior management of Huayi Brothers, the company's main profit direction was in film and television, and music was only a department with not many profits. It is not very valued by the company's top management.
Even if it is important, there may only be two first-class singers who have signed a contract with Huayi Brothers, the mainstay of the company, the men's powerful group Yuquan. and the male singer Huang Zheng, who were valued by the Huayi brothers.
After all, the two of them, as the two biggest names under Huayi Brothers Music Company, are also artists who can make a lot of money for the company, so they should naturally be cautious and deepen their sense of identity with the company, so as to continue to stay in the company.
Originally, at the very beginning, it was proposed by some high-level executives, and finally passed by mistake, about continuing to keep Menjie, but increasing the share of the contract between Menjie and the company, at that time, there were already a small number of high-level executives, ranking Menjie's status behind Yuquan and Huang Zheng.
can be regarded as the No. 3 person in Huayi Brothers Music Company, and he has great potential, but in a short period of time, he can't catch up with the status of the first three people, after all, potential is not strength.
However, the final sales of the second solo album "In My Singing" made everyone in Huayi Brothers see clearly what terrifying potential and strength Men Jie has, just over a year after his debut, he has surpassed countless predecessors, and announced with album sales of 2.86 million that the most shining singer in the mainland in the first half of 2005 is who!
Such an achievement, not to mention compared to the Yuquan combination and Huang Zheng in the Huayi brothers, even compared to many other kings and queen-level figures, it is not inferior!
What kind of coincidence is the strength of Menjie and the success of this album, in the eyes of the senior management of Huayi Brothers, it is not the most important, in their eyes, the most important thing is to be able to make money for them and earn enough wealth!
Therefore, in the eyes of many high-level people of Huayi Brothers, about one-third of the people, the existence of Menjie is already beyond the Yuquan group and Huang Zheng, the 'first brother' in music!
Of course, there are still some people who feel that the success of Menjie's album has a lot of accidental factors, but it also proves Menjie's strong potential and strength, and they are very optimistic about Menjie, and feel that Menjie's status is comparable to the Yuquan group!
Of course, there are a small number of more stubborn guys in the back, who feel that this is just Menjie's second solo album, and it doesn't mean anything, but Menjie happened to write two good songs, in terms of identity and status, it is not as good as the Yuquan group, unless next year, Menjie can also come up with an album with extremely unnatural sales to prove himself.
However, no matter who it is, in their hearts, they have already listed Menjie as the number two person in Huayi Brothers Music Company, surpassing Huang Zheng and second only to the existence of the Yuquan group!
Moreover, compared with the Yuquan combination, Menjie is younger and has greater potential, and in terms of cultivation value, it still surpasses the Yuquan combination.
It is precisely because of this that when she encountered something today, Mei Mei chose to come to Menjie in person, instead of simply giving orders to Menjie over the phone.
"By the way, have you had any new songs coming out lately? You don't know what to do, many senior executives of the company have been testing me recently, first of all, you have to know from my mouth that you have any good songs, what will be the quality of the album next year, and a few people want to ask you, can you release one more album this year! ”
Chatting and chatting, Mei Mei vented her bitterness to Menjie.
It is true that because of the super high sales of Menjie's albums, whether it is Menjie, Zhao Dong or Mei Mei, their status in the company has risen in a straight line, but at the same time, there have been a lot of troubles.
Menjie and Zhao Dong are not in the company, so naturally they can't realize it, but Meimei has always worked in the company, and she is more familiar with Menjie in terms of relationship, so she has naturally become the target of many high-level employees of the company.
"Sister Mei, I regret dying now, I didn't put all the good songs I wrote last year into the album "My Singing", and I don't even have a song in my hand now!"
With a wry smile, Menjie spat bitterly at Mei Mei, "Don't say it's another album released this year, even if it's on the contract, next year's album, I don't have a clue now, you also know that writing songs needs inspiration, if I haven't been inspired, I feel that next year, my new album may not be so good!" ”
It is true that Menjie doesn't have a new song at hand now, but when facing Mei Mei, who is in Huayi Brothers, Menjie is a little suspected of lying.
Releasing an album at the end of the year, Menjie will not waste his time to do it, it is better to make a film and television work and hone his acting skills if he has this time, but for the new album at this time next year, Menjie already has an idea in his heart.
With his first solo album "Fairy Tale", Menjie made many people know that there is a new singer who sings very well.
With his second solo album "In My Singing", Menjie has won the title of "Little Prince of Love Songs", and has secured this title, which is a well-deserved little prince of love songs.
But next, Menjie's third solo album, although he has not yet redeemed songs through the Tianwang system, Menjie has already strengthened his mind and is ready to use the next album to get a title like 'Little King of Love Songs'!
Although I feel that I am still some distance away from the king at that time, I can still do it to become a very famous member of the Chinese music scene in terms of love songs.
You don't need inspiration at all, you just need to carefully select a few good songs from the king system some time before recording the album, it's very simple.
The reason why Menjie said this was just that he was worried that after learning that he had written one or two songs, the Huayi brothers would help him include a few more good songs and ask him to release another album.
Although Menjie has the right to refuse, he doesn't want to have a stalemate with the company, after all, he has to use the distribution channels of Huayi Brothers to help him achieve greater success in the music world.
Therefore, there is only a reservation about Mei Mei.
"It's okay, don't worry!"
However, after hearing Menjie's words, Mei Mei really thought that Menjie had no inspiration, did not write a good song, and was anxious, so she hurriedly comforted her.
"I also know that writing songs needs inspiration, don't worry, if you have inspiration, you will write, if you are not inspired, you will not write, now the company's attitude towards you is very enthusiastic, and it is actively collecting songs for you, ready to let you achieve better results next year!"
"And I also heard that the company has come up with a huge amount of money this time, ready to create a new album for you, even if you can't come up with a good song, there are companies for you to find a way, don't worry!"
"Okay, I'm relieved when Sister Mei says that!"
nodded, he really had some expectations for the songs that the company had included for him, and at the same time, for his concealment of Mei Mei, as well as Mei Mei's enthusiasm and care for himself, Menjie was also a little guilty, and hurriedly led away from the topic, as if he suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly asked Mei Mei.
"By the way, Sister Mei, what is the matter with you coming here to find me today? Don't tell me, just to praise my new album! (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
