Chapter 29 Think about the Golden Melody Award(1/2)
"Haven't tried it before."
Wang Chuan had no choice but to use his limited acting skills to show a wry smile.
"You mean you don't have any songs accumulated except those four new songs."
Shen Lan didn't care about Wang Chuan's poor acting skills.
"Well..." Wang Chuan continued to compile, and then emphasized, "But I feel like my thoughts are flowing, and I can write a new one when I go back tonight!"
Shen Lan nodded slightly and returned to his office chair to sit down.
"At seven-thirty in the evening, I will pick you up at seven o'clock, don't forget."
"good."
After leaving the office, Wang Chuan remembered that Tang Ruojing had asked him if he had any other songs, and his answer was that he had an album in stock...
If Tang Ruojing had communicated with Shen Lan about releasing an album for herself, she would definitely mention this.
This has most likely already happened.
Shen Lan still looked like he believed it...
I should at least say that I feel like I can write an album in a week...
This songwriting speed is actually not outrageous.
Not to mention those musical talents, even ordinary music conservatory students can do it easily.
But the key is quality.
However, Shen Lan probably doesn’t think that after Wang Chuan comes out with the previous four songs, there will be works of the same quality...
Forget it, she has a dark history, so this is no big deal.
Back in the studio, Wang Chuan continued to discuss the next arrangements with Tang Ruojing.
After the cancellation of 1nter's schedule, and with nearly half a month of rest, all Wang Chuan had to do was shoot another short scene, and the rest could be freely arranged.
Originally, Wang Chuan asked Tang Ruojing to arrange some vocal and acting lessons to improve his professional quality.
But Tang Ruojing hopes that Wang Chuan can concentrate on preparing the album during this period. Even if the album is not produced before the end of the year as the music scene said, the sooner it is produced, the better.
It would be best if it could be completed in four months before filming with Ruan Qiushui.
Being able to enjoy a real vacation, Wang Chuan had no reason to refute.
It happens to be a good time to choose the script carefully.
You can also supplement Ruan Qiushui's drama to suit his liking.
If Wang Chuan wants to film a movie now, he either has to go to Shen Lan with a good script or ask her to recruit the crew to give him the male lead.
It's not that Shen Lan can't do it, but it's not easy.
In the case of Ruan Qiushui, it would be very simple, but the problem returns to Ruan Qiushui.
The script needs to impress Ruan Qiushui.
At seven o'clock in the evening, Shen Lan drove himself and took Wang Chuan with him. Twenty-five minutes later, he entered a private restaurant.
In the past, Shen Lan took Wang Chuan to private dinners like this many times, and the dinner tables were basically filled with powerful big shots in the industry.
First, meet someone familiar at the dinner table and have a few drinks. Then you will actually meet some resources and it will be easier to talk.
There were very few people this time, only a middle-aged man wearing glasses was waiting there in advance.
His temples are a little gray, and you can tell he is around 50 years old, but he has a literary and artistic temperament that makes it easy for people to ignore his age.
After seeing the two people come in, he also sat up.
He should be a relatively easy-to-talk person.
Shen Lan introduced it.
"This is your Uncle Jing'an Yijing."
"Uncle Jing."
Wang Chuan said hello.
"You are even more handsome than I was when you were younger. You are indeed a talented person."
Jing Anyi nodded with a smile and praised.
Wang Chuan smiled awkwardly.
After Shen Lan and Wang Chuan sat down, Jing Anyi and Shen Lan began to chat with each other, telling some anecdotes in the industry, their respective worries at work, and their hobbies for relaxing in their free time.
From the words, Wang Chuan realized that this Jing Anyi was engaged in music.
He complained a lot to Shen Lan about the current status of the music industry, and Wang Chuan also learned some inside information about the industry.
Looking at it this way, Shen Lan's purpose for this dinner is still very strong. Is he planning to bring himself into the mainstream music circle?
Or are you preparing for your own album?
I just don’t know what exactly Jing Anyi does in the music industry.
Shen Lan didn't tell himself in advance, maybe because he was afraid that his attitude would seem too utilitarian?
After all, according to Shen Lan's style, the real thing will be done at the next dinner party.
However, Jing Anyi didn't talk much about music, and then it was Shen Lan's turn to complain about the problems in the film and television industry.
The two talked for a long time and ignored Wang Chuan.
Wang Chuan was happy to be quiet, his eyes were watching his nose, his nose was watching his heart, and he would turn his face and smile at them from time to time.
Wang Chuan is very proficient in doing these, and he didn’t feel like he was sitting on his hands.
However, Wang Chuan discovered a problem, why the food was not served...
The two of them just stopped chatting. They each looked at their watches. Jing Anyi looked a little embarrassed.
He signaled to go out and make a phone call.
Wang Chuan immediately understood that someone was late and would most likely not come.
Shen Lan didn't say anything, and Wang Chuan didn't ask.
Which big shot are you going to invite?
Is the music industry so difficult to get into?
After a while, Jing Anyi came back, his expression even more embarrassing, and Shen Lan smiled and said he didn't care.
Soon, the waiter began to serve the food.
In my memory, Wang Chuan used to have dinner parties with Shen Lan, but he had never encountered such a situation.
There are some who are late due to temporary matters, but there is no one who just doesn't come.
This is too disrespectful.
Wang Chuan almost wanted to drag Shen Lan and leave directly.
In terms of the current situation in the domestic pop music circle, it’s not too much to say that you are both talented and able to show off.
And the higher you go up, the better you are at cooking and the better you pretend to be.
However, Jing Anyi always had a good attitude and took the initiative to liven up the atmosphere. After everyone had a few bites, they chatted casually for a while before ending.
"Sister Lan, you don't really want me to win a Golden Melody Award. Why should we join in the fun? How many people are paying attention to it now."
When they got to the car, Wang Chuan asked directly.
If you just release an album, you really don't have to put in so much effort.
Although a single album is released, it is difficult to gain status in the world.
“You don’t even care about the Golden Melody Award?”
Shen Lan didn't notice her displeasure at being let off the hook, but instead smiled more relaxedly. She looked like a big sister next door in her business casual attire.
It's rare to see this kind of temperament in her.
She spoke again before Wang Chuan could answer.
"Today's Jing Anyi is the vice president of Hua Na Records in Greater China. I'm not going to let you win the Golden Melody Award directly. I want to sign your record contract with Hua Na and hand over your album to them for production and distribution. .
"Today's matter has nothing to do with this matter. We have basically reached an agreement with him. Or are you planning to become an independent singer?"
As a singer, Wang Chuan certainly thinks that he can do it himself!
For Wang Chuan, he can compose lyrics and music by himself right away. Today’s music streaming platforms are so convenient and he can bring his own traffic, so he really doesn’t need a big record company.
But... Wang Chuan's thinking was limited before. When Hua Na was asked to release this album, Shen Lan was still looking for the vice president. The Golden Melody Award could really be considered...
"How many talks did you have?"
Wang Chuan asked.
"Three."
