Chapter 79: Snow Between the Eyebrows
With the recorded songs, he came to the familiar reception room again, thinking of the task assigned by the boss, Shi Hongchao was a little restless.
At this time, a colleague from another company also walked in, also making an appointment to meet Zhou Ze.
Shi Hongchao's heart sank when he saw this, obviously the other party also completed a work and took it.
They glanced at each other, and then nodded politely, but neither of them spoke, thinking about other things.
After waiting for about half an hour, Zhou Ze was late.
"I heard that both of their companies have already finished writing songs?" After sitting down, Zhou Ze raised his head directly and asked.
"That's right, in order not to affect the launch time of your company's pilot film, we still pay more attention to the recording speed of the song."
Competitors were the first to make a wave of boasting at this point.
As he spoke, he also lifted the frame of his glasses, looking proud.
Shi Hongchao was not far behind when he heard this: "Our company has always maintained a high level of quality while taking into account speed. ”
I don't look at who my composer is.
Will be afraid of you?
Are you kidding.
"That's it, the two of you will send me the song, I'll try it out first, and I'll give you a reply." Zhou Ze thought for a moment and said.
Hearing him say this, the two of them could only nod.
Zhou Ze, who received the song, left the living room again.
Shi Hongchao is not too worried about the song will not pass, he has heard this song, and it is quite suitable for the plot of the game.
The atmosphere of martial arts in the rivers and lakes is very strong, and his own singer Shan Qi sings very emotionally.
Sure enough, when Zhou Ze came back again, he said to the competitor: "I'm sorry, in terms of songs, we prefer another one." ”
When he said this, he was pleasantly surprised by the tune of the other party.
This "Whale Fall" singer really did not disappoint, it is indeed amazing, and it is no wonder that "Dajianghu" will become popular because of the soundtrack.
Not without reason.
As the person in charge of the game music side, he has the right to set the song first.
Of course, if there is a better work later, it can also be replaced.
It's just a formal symbolic compensation to the other party for some hard work.
For your own company, taking out this amount of money is really nothing.
Hearing his choice, the competitors glanced at Shi Hongchao's direction in surprise, and their brows were furrowed.
I didn't expect such a result, and continued unwillingly: "Don't you really think about our company's works? ”
Zhou Ze didn't say anything, just shook his head slightly.
Some words are actually already saving face for the other party, because the two songs can be said to be not on the same level at all.
This grade does not simply refer to the quality level of the song, but the degree of matching, and in this regard, it is obvious that 'Whale Fall' is more experienced.
Seeing Zhou Ze's resolute attitude, the competitor could only hold on and said: "Okay, I hope there will be a chance to cooperate next time." ”
"I hope so."
Zhou Ze nodded, and waited until the other party left, then he looked at Shi Hongchao and said, "We are very satisfied with the songs, and we have a happy cooperation." ”
When he said so, the contract of representation was completed.
Shi Hongchao breathed a sigh of relief and remembered the boss's instructions, and then said with a hesitant face: "There is one more thing I need to tell you." ”
"Please." The quality of the song is good, and Zhou Ze's mood is also very good, but I don't know what else is going on with the other party.
"It's about the song and the pilot feature film of your company's game, and we think it may not be very good in terms of fit, so my company has created another story, you can take a look." As he spoke, Shi Hongchao handed the printed story to the other party.
Zhou Ze's expression was stunned for a while.
I thought I had heard it wrong.
The plot and song don't fit well enough?
So another story to create?
What do you mean?
The other party is not satisfied with the game's pilot plot?
"Are you serious about this?"
Zhou Ze was also laughed at, Party B actually gave Party A an opinion, was it the other way around, or did he think he was too good at talking.
This is the first time he has encountered this situation, and this Shi Hongchao doesn't know what to do.
"Well, this is just my company's suggestion, and the song aspect will not change." Seeing that the other party's face was wrong, Shi Hongchao explained.
"Okay, needless to say, let's do this today, I won't send it."
Zhou Ze got up with a displeased face, but he didn't take this thing to heart in his heart.
Although psychologically I prefer this song, it doesn't mean that the other party can kick his nose in the face.
What do you think?,I even want to intervene in the game's pilot plot.。
Why don't you do a good job of this Party A?
Shi Hongchao sighed when he saw this.
He knew that the other party couldn't accept this kind of thing when he heard it, and he couldn't continue to explain it at the moment, and it would be worth the loss to mess up the contract again.
The task has been completed, just like the boss said, like the boss said, whether you like to watch it or not, and he has nothing to lose, so thinking so, he walked out.
The song is already in place.
On the same day, the game director who got the news held a regular meeting for everyone.
In fact, the aspect of the game has been prepared for a long time, and now the difference is the song of the pilot feature film.
It's still a lot richer than the stipulated completion time, but since it's all done, it's naturally the best, and what unexpected happens in the end of the province.
As the head of the music section.
Zhou Ze connected the computer to the speaker in the conference room, and then played the song publicly.
He didn't like what Shi Hongchao said before, but there was nothing wrong with the song and it wouldn't affect his judgment.
Not only the game director was present, but even some members of the development team were sitting in the room.
As the song played, the conference room quickly fell silent.
When the song was sung, everyone was still a little unsatisfied.
Some employees couldn't help but look in Zhou Ze's direction.
The expression on his face seemed to ask why he didn't come again.
"Yes, it's a rare good song." Game director Song Wenfan nodded, and then asked, "What's the name of this song?" ”
"The name is "Snow Between the Eyebrows", and the lyrics and songs are more archaic, which matches our game style quite well." Zhou Ze replied.
"Which company's work is it?" Song Wenfan then asked.
"The Cte d'Azur, a small company that is not well-known, but the composer is more powerful, and it is the 'whale fall' that has been gaining momentum recently."
Although he can't figure out why 'Whale Fall' would compose music for such a small company, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with him.
It's okay for the other party to take out something.
"That's a good job."
Song Wenfan glanced at him approvingly, and then asked, "As for the price, the other party has no opinion, right?" ”
"Don't worry, Director, even if the amount of liquidated damages is raised, these companies are eager to rush to take orders, but the other party is still very interesting, and they actually feel that our pilot plot story does not fit well with the song, and they also wrote a new story and sent it over."
Thinking of what Shi Hongchao said to himself, Zhou Ze couldn't help laughing.
On the side, Cheng Ziang, the head of the game development department, was bright and said, "Director Zhou, can you show me that story." ”
Being able to write such a moving song, he felt that the other party understood this, so he was a little curious.
Zhou Ze glanced at him in surprise and said, "In the conference room, I didn't bring it up, so let's do it, Xiao Sun, you go and get it." ”
The employee whose name was called quickly ran out and got the file back in a few moments.
Cheng Ziang took it, and then looked at it seriously for a while, and was suddenly pleasantly surprised.
Regardless of everyone's eyes, he directly raised his head and said: "Director, the plot pilot written by the other party is indeed better, I want to change it." ”
As soon as he said this, everyone in the development department was shocked.
The whole plot pilot was not made in a day, the cycle took nearly two months, and now it is too late to change it.
Besides, they finally have a break for a while, and then they have to go back to work?
"You're not kidding, are you?"
Zhou Ze was also stunned, is this story really so good?
And Song Wenfan shook his head when he heard him and said, "It's too late." ”
"Take a look at it first, it's definitely the icing on the cake for our game." Cheng Ziang hurriedly handed over the documents in his hand.
Song Wenfan took it, and he didn't care about it in his heart.
But after a few glances, there was a sudden silence.
It's a good story, and it's quite deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
So, he turned to Cheng Ziang and asked, "If you make some simple changes according to this plot, how long will your development department take?" ”
"It will be at least a week or so longer for the new area to be launched."
Cheng Ziang quickly calculated.
The general plot is still pretty much the same, and there aren't many things that need to be changed.
Coupled with the dubbing of a few paragraphs of vocabulary, a week is enough time for their team.
"So long?" Song Wenfan frowned, the story is indeed eye-catching, but it is not worth it to let the new area open for a week.
"If you work overtime, you can get out in about three or four days." Seeing that the director was not satisfied, Cheng Ziang continued to shorten the time.
Beside him, many employees can be described as crying without tears.
I just sighed that the life of the programmed ape was too bitter, and when I saw the dawn, I had to go back to work overtime.
One by one, their eyes suddenly looked at the director's side, hoping to reject this proposal, which was really life-threatening.
"For three or four days, I don't think it's necessary, and I will lose credibility." Zhou Ze suggested at this time.
"I insist."
Cheng Ziang was unmoved.
Song Wenfan looked at the other party's persistent gaze, and immediately sighed and said: "Three days, I'll give you three days, and if it's not completed, I'll put the original pilot film." ”
"I see."
Cheng Ziang nodded, and immediately stood up and announced: "Everyone in the development department will stay overnight to work overtime, and I will invite you for supper." ”
“.”
Development Department Everyone.
