Chapter 437: Which One Should I Choose?

Yangcheng, Xinghai Music Branch Building.

In an office.

"Hahahaha, it's really a human name, the shadow of the tree, Master Xu has just returned to China, and everyone in the industry already knows it!"

The bald leader put down the phone in his hand and said to the middle-level female leader next to him who rushed to hear the news.

"You know that Thundering Films, right? It was the film and television company that had achieved great success with "Return to Daqin" that had just sent out a competition list invitation for a new drama, and asked our company's Master Xu if he was interested in participating."

He subconsciously rubbed the Mediterranean part above his head and happily showed off to his colleagues.

"That's a good feeling, it is said that this Thundering Film and Television is going to use a total of 50 million yuan to prepare for the filming of this TV series adapted from this famous book, and the price of the opening song this time will not be too low, right?"

The female leader sat elegantly on the sofa next to her, with a smug smile on her face, Master Xu Zhongsheng joined Xinghai Entertainment because she and the bald leader in front of her jointly prepared, and the gold medal composer who had spent great effort to introduce attracted the attention of Party A's company as soon as she entered the door, and she also felt a great sense of achievement.

"Yes, they have prepared three million funds to invest in the production of the opening song, that is, the promotional song, and this is only the creation part, and there are also two million singers to sing, a total of five million a list!"

The bald leader's eyes lit up, a list of three million plus two million, even in the eyes of a giant like Xinghai, it was a very tempting piece of big fat.

And if the composer who was introduced by the two of them won this list, it would show that the two of them had excellent vision and knowledge, and they could also make a big splash at the company's commendation meeting at the end of the year.

"It's a pity that this is a competition list, and Leiming Film and Television also launched an invitation to other companies in Yangcheng, instead of directly entrusting our company to create......

The female leader spread her hands and expressed her helplessness.

"That is, their previous TV series cooperated very well with Jiang Kan of Feiyang Entertainment, and the ratings once soared to a height of 2.9%, if it wasn't for our strong introduction of Master Xu to join this time, they would definitely go directly to Feiyang's Jiang Kan."

The bald leader said calmly.

"If it weren't for the two of us, they would have snatched this list away, doesn't that just show that our work is fruitful? Hahahaha!"

His words also reassured the female leader, yes, the business that would have nothing to do with him had the opportunity to fight for it because of the introduction of talents from the two of them, isn't this just to prove that his work direction is very correct?

"Well, then let's do it, go back and ask the people from the business department to transfer the list to Master Xu, see what he thinks, and how to arrange it next."

"Oh? As soon as I joined the company, was I assigned a competition ticket? It's really about maximizing the value of human use!"

Xu Zhongsheng, who had obtained an independent office and was looking at the exquisite decoration environment in his own independent small space, looked at the stack of materials just sent by the business department in his hand, and couldn't help but crook the corners of his mouth and let out a laugh.

"The famous TV series adaptation at the beginning of this century, "The Golden Family"?"

He returned to his large chair and sat down comfortably, then briefly flipped through the stack of explanatory materials for the TV series, and had a general impression in his mind.

"It is said to be a masterpiece, but because it is very old, most of the people who know it are older audiences, which means that the popularity is not enough."

Putting the stack of materials on the table, Xu Zhongsheng crossed Erlang's legs and thought to himself.

"And only the male protagonist is a popular and powerful actor, and the other female No. 1, male No. 2 and No. 2 female No. 2 are just unknown newcomers......

The general situation of the crew is also explained in the information, and the company has signed a confidentiality agreement and will not leak it, but in order to pay attention to Master Xu and facilitate him to better understand the situation in the TV series, he will still do this

Some information was revealed to him.

"The capital is invested 50 million, but it is mainly used for service and scene shaping, and the director is only a powerful Mesozoic director, and his reputation is not particularly big......

He crossed his hands on his abdomen, leaned his head back on the back of the chair, and the whole person was lazily half lying on the chair, his toes on the ground little by little, so that the chair body swayed slightly from side to side.

"A total of 40 episodes were filmed, that is, 1.25 million Xia Guoyuan per episode, and the total rice yuan is less than 200,000 yuan......

"To sum up, this is also a drama with small and medium-sized investment, and it is not comparable to those dramas in the United States that often cost tens of millions of dollars, hehe......

Xu Zhongsheng shook his head with some disdain, not having much interest in paying attention to this matter at all.

"I'm preparing to write an A+ grade song right now, and I need to devote myself to making a resounding first shot for opening up the situation in China after I return to China, and I don't have time to write an opening song for such an unpopular little production."

"But this is the first order they gave me after I joined Xinghai Entertainment, and I can't refuse, which is too shameless for them...... Hey, what should I do about this?"

Xu Zhongsheng shook his chair, looked at the bustling Yangcheng street scene outside the clear floor-to-ceiling window, and thought about it.

In the end, his eyes lit up, as if he had come up with a good way to get the best of both worlds!

He picked up the phone he had bought after returning home on the table and dialed a number.

"Hey, Xiao Lei, are you busy with work?"

"Hehe, I'm fine, haven't I just returned to China, and I still have a bunch of things to do......

"You've been in Yangcheng lately, right? I remember you opened a studio of your own? Okay, that's good, hehe."

"Oh, there's nothing else, we haven't seen each other for a long time, let's have dinner together in the evening and keep in touch with each other......

"Hahahaha, okay, okay, no problem, then you can set a place, I'm not familiar with this place...... Okay, then Yangcheng Restaurant, then we'll see you at half past six~"

After greeting and hanging up the phone, Xu Zhongsheng put the phone on the table, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

The apprentice named Zhang Lei, who he received in the United States back then, returned to China three or four years earlier than himself, and now he has also created a certain reputation in China and opened a music studio, mainly to receive some independent animation and film and television music production lists that large companies can't look down on and small companies can't grab.

He is quite aware of his ability, and his character is also quite good, and he also got his true biography when he was in Beimi, and with his current ability in China, he should also belong to the top ten composer level in the top three giant companies.

It's just that this person is *** free and doesn't like to be managed, so Xinghai and Guangguang didn't go when they dug him up at that time, but opened a studio by themselves as the boss.

This time, he can take this competition list first, and then hand it over to Zhang Lei to do, divided into one and a half according to the old rules, when they were in the United States, the two often had such cooperation, Xu Zhongsheng used his reputation to attract the list, and the endless distribution was given to the apprentice and then the income was fifty-fifty.

As for the right of authorship, it was naturally taken by the teacher, after all, people came for his Lao Xu's name, otherwise it would not be accepted at all.

He plans to mention this list to his apprentice tonight to see if he is willing to take it, and if he is unwilling, there are a few other apprentices, and he will always find a suitable person to outsource.

In his opinion, in the domestic environment where the music industry lags behind foreign countries for decades, his apprentices can completely overwhelm everyone, and the big deal is that when the work comes out, he will help point out, revise and revise, and win this list is simply a toad eating insects - open your mouth.

Three days later, in the office of the boss of Thundering Film and Television.

"How? Have they all taken orders?"

Poured a cup of fragrant tea for himself and the other party, and Mr. Wang asked Lao Lu, who was in charge of this matter, in his office.

"Next, Xinghai and Feiyang have taken it, and the light is good

Like I'm also interested in this list, after all, the creation cost alone is three million, and if the discussion is good, even the singer can package and use the composer's family, the whole is five million, which is a big list in China, who doesn't covet it?"

Lao Lu stood up, respectfully took the hot tea handed by the other party with both hands, put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it, and a refreshing fragrance spread to his nostrils, which made people feel refreshed.

Just like the preparation of the TV series, the release of the theme song was also quite smooth, which made him feel even better.

"That's good, I was a little worried just now that a composer like Xu Zhongsheng, who won the Oscar for Best Score, would not look down on our small list, but I didn't expect Xinghai Entertainment to take this list very actively, and said that he would definitely be arranged to be in charge of this list."

Wang Leiming took a sip of tea gently, and was speechless with satisfaction, enjoying the mellow fragrance of tea and the sweetness of his thriving career.

"Hehe, the master also wants to eat, although I don't know what ingredients he talked about with Xinghai, but the creation cost of up to 3 million yuan, he still shouldn't look down on it."

Lao Lu put down the teacup and said with confidence. After all, although the list of three million is inconspicuous abroad, it can be regarded as a large amount of remuneration in Xia Kingdom, especially in Yangcheng, a place with fierce competition.

"By the way, what did Feiyang say? Or will Jiang Kan take over?"

Mr. Wang asked Xinghai and asked about the take-off.

After all, the previous cooperation with the flying Jiang Kan was very pleasant, and "The Highest Mandate of Heaven" simply became the best booster for the explosion of "Return to Daqin".

And the games and movies launched by his two elder brothers have also benefited a lot from Jiang Kan's composition, and he still wants to continue to work with him in his heart.

However, the competitor has an Oscar in his hand, and the attraction is too great, so I'm sorry, you still have to compete.

"System, the plot and introduction of this "Golden Family" are probably like this, do you have any suitable songs in your music library that can be customized?"

In his commissioner's office, Jiang Kan was consulting the system.

"Of course, the earth's music library is endless, as long as you are willing to spend time and energy to find it, you can always find the song you want."

"Okay, then I'll customize a theme song that fits this TV series."

"Please enter the system library and find it yourself."

"Huh...... Can't you just customize it for me? I'll have to find it myself?"

Although this workout has been carried out several times, Jiang Kan still prefers to customize the song directly to him by the system.

It's not that he wants to be lazy and save trouble.

It's that there are so many and so good songs in the system's earth music library that he will be addicted to them as soon as he falls into them, like a little grass that can't extricate himself.

It's so embarrassing to choose only one song from so many good songs!

"The system can narrow down the selection for the host, but it needs to pay an additional 500,000 referral fee, does the system need to provide this service?"

"There are thousands of music on the earth, and I have always been very unfamiliar with these ancient love dramas......

In the end, Jiang Kan still accepted the narrowing of the scope of the system, and opened the system library for selection.

Time passed in a hurry, and Jiang Kan wandered in the music library, enjoying this boundless and beautiful music.

I don't know how long it took, but he finally picked out a few alternatives from the dozen or so songs provided by the system.

Then, he took the time to listen to it several times, and finally selected a few songs that he thought were more appropriate.

These songs include "Dark Fragrance", "Have You Ever Loved Me", "Deep Love and Rain", and "No Clear Heart".

After carefully reading the script and TV series instructions sent by Party A again, and listening to these songs several times repeatedly, Jiang Kan finally made a decision.

"Just pick this one, System."

He pointed to one of them and said with great certainty.

"Okay,

The host has chosen "Dark Incense", and the customization fee is based on 500,000 plus the guidance fee of 500,000 to narrow the scope, for a total of 1 million customization fees, Shenghui."

While secretly scolding the system's wealth fans, Jiang Kan obtained the theme song that he thought was the most perfect fit for "Golden Family" - "Dark Fragrance".

First, because he carefully read the script materials, and secondly, he has a dark feeling to guide him, and when he brings the melody of this song into the plot provided by the materials, it is as if he is personally in that absurd and chaotic era, and witnesses this poignant and gorgeous love story.

"Phew, I hope this song can be perfectly adapted to this TV series, but then again, its melody is really touching, it takes a lot of vocal skills to be used in the song, and this singer's voice is so charming! If I sing it myself, will I be able to fully express its charm?"

The song began to play again in his mind, and Jiang Kan only felt that he was already in the beautiful picture depicted by the lyrics at this time, and the magnificent arrangement lingered around him, making people sink and unable to extricate themselves.
