Chapter 370: He's not here to sing, he's here to sell...
Zhang Sheng and Li Zhenguo met by chance on the plane, and the two talked happily.
If it were a different person, Li Zhenguo might not take the initiative to greet him so actively.
He took the initiative, I'm afraid it wasn't because of Zhang Sheng's popularity in North America.
A big reason may lie in Zhang Sheng's identity.
The owner of a large film and television company, he is also a well-known screenwriter and director.
And he and his company now seem to have a faint trend towards international development.
In addition, there is another reason, that is, Zhang Sheng is still very young.
This kind of person, who in the circle is not willing to befriend him.
Not to mention that Li Zhenguo is just a star, even if he is capital in the circle, I am afraid he is very happy to be good friends with Zhang Sheng.
Perhaps, one day there will be an opportunity to cooperate.
Got off the plane and left.
Zhang Sheng and Li Zhenguo left each other's contact information.
"Why are you free to pick me up this time?" Zhang Sheng looked at Sun Zhen and said with a smile.
Zhang Sheng has come to Los Angeles many times, and Sun Zhen took over the plane when he first came.
"I'm busy." Sun Zhen smiled, "Thank you by the way." ”
"Thank me?" Zhang Sheng wondered.
"You made a name for yourself in North America, and you also showed your hand in a certain show, setting off a wave of Chinese kung fu craze," Sun Zhen said, "so there are a lot more people who come to my martial arts gym to learn martial arts." ”
"Of course, the most important thing is that you introduced Robertson to the martial arts hall." Sun Zhen said, "This time, there are more people in the martial arts hall who are learning martial arts. This should be what you call star effect, right? ”
"So, you should treat me to a meal." Zhang Sheng smiled and said.
That's all I can say about thanks.
There weren't that many politeness between them.
Zhang Sheng has a property in Los Angeles, but he doesn't live in it.
For the rest of his life, he was staying in the hotel.
Recording of the semi-finals soon began.
This time, the atmosphere was much more relaxed than before.
The destined result, no one will go stupidly to fight.
The contention is only a performance, not a result.
Whoever cares about the outcome loses.
"Do you really sing Chinese songs?" Robertson looked at Zhang Sheng and said with some surprise, "The final won't be the same, right?" ”
Zhang Sheng nodded.
Robertson was a competitor, but Zhang Sheng didn't treat him as a competitor.
He probably didn't see anyone as a competitor.
His purpose for participating in the show has been achieved.
Even better than expected.
"Actually, you can fight for it." Robertson said, "You have what it takes to win the championship. ”
"Do you think it's possible?" Zhang Sheng said lightly.
No matter how strong he is, this season's championship doesn't have his share.
Even if it's not Borui, it's someone else.
It is never the strength that determines the champion.
Robertson naturally knew.
He opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say something.
Zhang Sheng naturally knew what Robertson wanted to say.
Copyright!
Zhang Sheng holds the copyright in his hand, and if he wants to fight for it, he may not have a chance.
However, Zhang Sheng obviously doesn't see it that way.
What's more, whether he can compete or not, Zhang Sheng is not interested in that championship.
He knew very well that winning the championship would not be good for him.
Even if he won it with his strength, I am afraid that in the eyes of others, he is also threatened by the copyright of the next season to win the championship.
In this way, it will only disgust fans here in North America.
Pay for one's whistle.
The reputation of the show has collapsed, and the copyright has not been released?
Can you still sell it for a good price?
Not winning the championship is undoubtedly the most beneficial to Zhang Sheng.
"This season's championship, any of you can win it, but I can't." Zhang Sheng shook his head and said.
Robertson didn't say anything more.
It's not that he doesn't understand.
If Zhang Sheng wins the championship, what will happen to the fans of other singers?
Not to mention their fans.
Fans in North America are estimated to be blown up.
Zhang Sheng immediately changed the topic.
He could see that Robertson was unhappy with the show's in-house title.
It's not that I don't accept Borui, but I don't accept this kind of internal determination.
The order of the draw was recorded quickly.
The singer chatted and set the order.
Zhang Sheng was lucky this time and drew a "7".
He was the last to play in the semi-finals.
The first to come out was Robertson.
Other singers also appeared one after another.
It's the semi-finals, and it seems that everyone has done their best and done their best.
They don't compete for a good place so that they don't get knocked out, they want to give the audience their best performance.
Among the singers, in fact, Borui has the most pressure.
He's a champion, but he's got to live up to his name.
If his performance is a little worse, he may inevitably be ridiculed.
Of the six of them, who performs the best.
Hard.
Turnips and cabbages have their own love.
What's more, the audience's preferences may not be the same as the singer's.
Anyway, Zhang Sheng's favorite performance in this issue is not Borui's.
Zhang Sheng played.
The moment the music prelude sounded, the audience was instantly captivated.
Zhang Sheng still displayed many Chinese musical instruments this time.
This is not the first time he has shown Chinese musical instruments on this stage.
But this time it didn't seem to be the same.
The style of the songs is different.
There is no previous passion and enthusiasm.
"Furong City rains in March, embroidery needles in April, feather fans point to thousands of army formations, brocade cut a few inches, watch the iron horse step on the glacier. You can see every stitch of embroidery, someone hurts for you, you can see that the peony blooms for a lifetime, and someone waits for you."
"Shu Embroidery" is a national style song.
The melody led by the erhu, accompanied by the pipa and flute, winds down, and the bits and pieces are laid out like gurgling water, and there is no doubt that the artistic conception of silk threads and light embroidery is enough.
This undoubtedly gave the audience a different feeling.
Before, whether it was "Huo Yuanjia" or "Men Should Be Self-Improvement", the melody was added to the drum, giving people a sense of blood boiling.
This "Shu Embroidery" obviously has a different style.
The lyrics of this song are cleverly designed, from the perspective of an embroidery girl, by depicting the brocade map embroidered in her hand, laying out the history of Shu embroidery. And then put the deep affection of the individual for embroidery, husband and family and country into it.
The words are beautiful, classical, elegant and touching, and the image of an embroidery girl who has a deep love for the country is outlined.
Of course, the audience probably didn't understand.
But the melody undoubtedly gave them a sense of freshness.
The melody is tactful and melodious, the melody is soft and unique, with fresh and beautiful Jiangnan melody elements.
The song was originally sung by a female voice.
But when Zhang Sheng sang it, it felt as wonderful as a clear spring, and it was more like a fresh breeze blowing in early summer.
Why did Zhang Sheng choose this song?
In this song, there are bamboo flute, guqin, pipa, erhu and other unique Chinese instruments in the arrangement.
This can allow foreign fans to see the charm of Chinese musical instruments.
Of course, there is another reason, that is: Shu embroidery is one of the four famous embroideries in China.
If because of this song, there are more people abroad who know about Chinese embroidery, then Zhang Sheng's purpose of singing this song on this stage will be achieved.
Actually, it's more utilitarian.
Zhang Sheng's song is not sung to foreign audiences, but to domestic audiences.
He used the stage of "Singer" in North America to not only spread Chinese songs and Chinese musical instruments, but also to promote embroidery
Isn't it positive?
Zhang Sheng's move is worthy of praise.
"Your song is also very Chinese. Many Chinese instruments have also been added to the arrangement. "However, I prefer this style to the previous two." ”
"Me too!" Dolly nodded and said.
"I like the first two songs better." Jack began, "This kind of soft and aesthetic style of song is not my thing. ”
Zhang Sheng has sung four Chinese songs on this stage so far.
"In the Name of the Father" dark style.
And the two songs mentioned by Ella and others obviously do not include this song.
They are talking about "Huo Yuanjia" and "Men Should Be Self-Improvement".
As for why Jack likes these two songs and doesn't like "Shu Embroidery"?
It's not hard to understand that people play rock 'n' roll.
"Shu embroidery, one of the four famous embroideries of China, is a traditional Chinese craft that uses silk thread to embroider patterns on silk or other fabrics."
"That's where the inspiration for my song came from."
"This time, I brought some gifts for everyone."
Zhang Sheng smiled and immediately beckoned Cheng Peng to take out the prepared things.
"What is this?"
The crowd was a little surprised.
Zhang Sheng actually brought them gifts?
"Shu embroidery!"
Zhang Sheng said with a smile.
"Huh? It's beautiful! ”
"Soft satin colored silk?"
"The pattern is good and vivid?"
"Is this embroidered?"
"I'll look at yours."
"Shouldn't we say thank you first?"
The atmosphere was congenial and warm.
Borui and others still like Zhang Sheng's gift very much.
Whether you really like it or not.
When people give gifts, you have to show your liking out of politeness.
Zhang Sheng smiled.
Those Shu embroideries really cost a lot of money.
However, that money is nothing to Zhang Sheng.
For Borui and others, it is naturally not a valuable gift.
But you can't measure the value of a gift.
This courtesy was brought by Zhang Sheng from Huaguo, and it is something very Chinese culture.
Significant.
followed by an interview with the singer, Zhang Sheng naturally promoted another wave of "Shu embroidery".
He didn't talk much about songs, but more about Shu embroidery.
It feels like he is not here to sing this time, but to promote Shu embroidery.
When the results were announced, Harvey's eyes were a little different when he looked at Zhang Sheng.
This guy is really the one who planted the ad to play with the flowers.
Running this stage to promote Huaguo embroidery is coming.
Zhang Sheng still knows something about advertising placement.
A person who made a movie with advertisers' money and made hundreds of millions, how could Harvey not hear about it?
There are quite a few directors in Hollywood who are good at product placement.
can be compared with Zhang Sheng, but it is a few points worse.
No matter how powerful Hollywood is a director, it can't do it like "Night. The shop" and "Big Shot" are the same as the two movies, the advertising placement is crazy, but the reputation has not collapsed.
But what could he say?
The mouth of the cannibal is short, and the hand of the taker is short.
Harvey also received a gift from Zhang Sheng, and he really liked it.
That's a work of art.
As for the shots about the "Shu embroidery", Harvey naturally won't cut them all.
Of course, it's not just about receiving gifts.
The main thing is to give Zhang Sheng this face.
