Chapter 103: Science Fiction Movie

In short, Chen Feng is developed.

Although it is not comparable to billionaires, it is not long before the personal net worth exceeds eight figures.

Recently, the increase in housing prices has slowed down and entered a steady downward trend, and Chen Feng is not in a hurry to buy a house.

Even if you want to buy it, you have to wait for more money to buy a luxury house in one step, and this part of the money is not enough at present.

In addition, he has no desire to spend now, and he has to pay taxes when withdrawing money from the company's account to his personal hands, so he simply leaves all the money to the company to maintain daily expenses and prepare for the next expansion.

The company has developed so rapidly that Chen Feng, the hand-shaken shopkeeper who said he was good, had to get busy.

Meng Xiaozhou needs to adapt to the industry, and as a professional manager, he needs to understand the management style of Chen Feng, the person at the helm.

Only by cooperating with tacit understanding can Meng Xiaozhou know which things Chen Feng doesn't care about, and he doesn't need to report them separately, those things are very important and must be reported in time.

Although Chen Feng wanted Meng Xiaozhou to take care of everything, he had to give Meng Xiaozhou enough time to adjust, so he was also coerced by many affairs.

On the contrary, Ou Junlang, the grandson thief, lives the most nourishing.

Unlike ordinary artists, fat people are too lazy to contact any brand endorsements, and they are not interested in commercial performances.

In the fat man's words, it's very true.

"I'm just starting out, why do you take all this work? Can you make me sing better? Can it boost my fame? No, only my influence can be consumed. These endorsement resources are too poor, Master, look at this thermal underwear, it is only one million a year, and it is not as much as the pocket money given by my father. It's not that I don't accept endorsements at all, but I have to wait for me to become red again, and I need top resources from the beginning. ”

So this product is in the name of album promotion, but in fact, it is flying around the country to play in the mountains and rivers.

From time to time, he goes on a TV show, bragging about his master's ox fork, and from time to time he appears on the music radio station, or bragging about his master's cow fork, in short, it is very pleasant.

said that on this day, Chen Feng finally finished reading the quarterly income and expenditure budget table that Meng Xiaozhou asked the finance to do, and wanted to be relieved, but the office door was pushed open by Meng Xiaozhou again.

"Mr. Chen, there is a very important cooperation here."

Chen Feng frowned, "Manager Meng, if someone wants to send us money for cooperation, you can just take it, don't come to ask me." ”

"It's not. Here's the situation. Hollywood director Neil Brockamp personally called and said that he wanted to use "Bathed in Fire" as the theme song of his movie. ”

Chen Feng was stunned for a moment, and his fingers clicked on the keyboard to find out the information.

He rubbed his chin and said: "The investment of this sci-fi film is 1.5 billion US dollars, which is the production standard of A-grade films." ”

Meng Xiaozhou said excitedly: "Yes, this is our opportunity. If we can successfully reach cooperation, our company will be able to enter the European and American markets. I thought that this day would come sooner or later, but I didn't expect it to be so soon. ”

Chen Fengxin said that in fact, I didn't expect it, but his face was silent, and he only asked: "But doesn't it say that it will be released next month?" It should have been made by now, right? Impossible. ”

"Here's how it ......"

After listening to Meng Xiaozhou, Chen Feng understood.

This Neil Brockamp is a man of personality and is very strong.

His new sci-fi blockbuster "Chaotic Space" has indeed been produced and will be released soon.

But just yesterday, after listening to the song "Bathing in Fire", although the language is different, he heard the charm behind the song, and he was sure that this was the theme song of his dreams.

So he temporarily increased his budget, rejected the original theme song, and turned to Xingfeng Entertainment to seek cooperation.

The other party's specific request was to rewrite the lyrics of "Bathing in Fire" and adapt it into English. They will have Katie Swift to sing. The one-time payment for the license is $1 million, and the details such as subsequent dividends are included in this fax contract. ”

Meng Xiaozhou handed over a contract in English.

Chen Feng said that he couldn't understand it, he was too lazy to read it, just read it.

Then he fell into deep thought.

"Bathing in Fire" is not available in English, only in Chinese.

At least in the timeline that Chen Feng has experienced so far.

That's why it's hard for him to fill in the words.

But he is not very willing to fake this matter to others, in case he creates a poor quality English version of "Bathing in Fire" and interferes with the realm of the song itself, which is a bit more than worth the loss.

"So, I asked Zhong Lei. Let's see if she's interested. After all, English is not my native language, and the lyrics of "Bathing in Fire" were not written by me, so it is inevitable that the words will not reach the meaning and lack the charm when I adapt them. ”

Zhong Lei quickly gave an answer.

She thinks it's feasible, her English is not bad, but she needs the cooperation of the other singer.

Chen Feng immediately clapped his head, "Okay, then take it!" ”

In view of the fact that Chen Feng was not good at negotiation, especially in the negotiation of transnational cooperation, he entrusted Meng Xiaozhou with carte blanche to take charge of the matter.

When Meng Xiaozhou was in contact with the other party on a formal conference call on behalf of Chen Feng, Zhong Lei rushed to Chen Feng's office.

The two discussed the matter of translating the lyrics for a long time, but to no avail.

The phonetic transcription and pronunciation methods of English and Chinese are completely different, and the control of rhythm and rhyme when composing lyrics is very different, and it is difficult to adapt.

If you want to keep the original meaning of the original lyrics, it is difficult to create English lyrics of the same level.

Zhong Lei said: "First of all, we have to consider the pronunciation habits of foreign language singers, if it really doesn't work, let's sacrifice the original meaning of the lyrics and let Katie Swift take the lead in adapting and filling in the lyrics." ”

Chen Feng shook his head, "It's not appropriate." ”

"Why?" Zhong Lei actually wants to say that the original author of her lyrics doesn't mind, you just be generous, I believe in the level of international superstars, Sister Fruit Moldy is still very powerful.

Chen Feng didn't explain, he just didn't agree.

Only he knows the importance of the song "Bathing in Fire".

There will be two versions of "Bathed in Fire" in the future, which is a very complicated situation.

It's not like one plus one equals two.

It is likely that the two versions will cancel each other's influence, and in the end one plus one will be less than two, so that "Bathing in Fire" loses its magic and fails to become a military song.

"Forget it, let's put this aside for now. Let's talk about my new song. ”

couldn't talk about a result, Zhong Lei changed the topic.

Chen Feng was slightly shocked, ""Self-Burning has been recorded?" ”

"That's right! As long as you approve it, it will be on the shelves this afternoon! This is my first full-length song as your artist! ”

Chen Feng swallowed his saliva, "It's really fast." ”

"No matter how fast I am, I'm not as fast as you. Hear it first? ”

Zhong Lei pulled Chen Feng to the newly built recording studio and asked him to put on the special monitoring headphones for recording and the emperor Daao headphones in the consumer grade and listen to them respectively.

Da Ao was "borrowed" from Ou Junlang's recording studio, and there are only a few complete systems in the country, and he doesn't plan to return them.

"How? Give a rating? Zhong Lei looked at Chen Feng expectantly.

Chen Feng's previous comments on "Bathing in Fire" are too penetrating, and every sentence is a true insight that goes straight to the essence through phenomena, and there are many new music theories that Zhong Lei has never heard of, but knows that it makes sense just by listening to it.

Zhong Lei was amazed and admired Chen Feng's ability to appreciate music.

Therefore, she attaches great importance to Chen Feng's opinion.

Chen Feng avoided her expectant eyes and hollowed out the organizational language.
