"This is Zhang Lin, Director Zhang, currently working at CCTV. Lao Zhang, this is Wen Zheng."
Yao Guangxiao briefly introduced.
After Wen Zheng greeted the middle-aged man, he continued: "I invested in a TV series last year, and I'm encountering some problems now, so I mentioned you to Lao Zhang. He happened to be back today, so I thought of letting him go by the way.
See you guys."
Wen Zheng understood immediately.
This is probably Yao Guangxiao's real purpose for letting him come. There is nothing that stars like more than appearance, and besides, this is a CCTV crew.
Zhang Lin smiled and said: "Actually, I am also a fan of yours. I like all of your songs, especially the song "Broad Sea and Sky", tsk! I can hear someone humming it almost every day on the set."
"Haha, Director Zhang, you are so flattering."
Wen Zheng responded casually.
Zhang Lin smiled and said thoughtfully: "Then I'll tell you directly. I'm currently filming Water Margin, and it's almost over, but the problem of the soundtrack has not been solved. I heard that the accompaniment of "Broad Sea and Sky" was written by you,
So I just want you to try it. I wonder how much you know about Water Margin?"
Wen Zheng was stunned because he was not allowed to film.
Although he was a little disappointed, he still replied with a smile: "I understand a little bit. But the soundtrack also depends on your specific requirements. For example, what specific scenes do you need the soundtrack for? What effect do you want, etc. I don't know if it's convenient for you to reveal the trailer.
Something?"
Zhang Lin was astonished that this guy had such a big tone and didn't even refuse.
He wasn't optimistic about Wen Zheng. After all, strictly speaking, there was a big difference between singing and scoring, and the latter had obviously higher requirements.
To put it bluntly, he didn't expect Wen Zheng to take over this job. Even if he did, what kind of musical background could a young boy like him have to come up with anything useful?
I still know a little bit about Water Margin. There are very few people in their early twenties who can read it through, not to mention whether they understand it or not.
How dare you take this job?
Yao Guangxiao saw that Zhang Lin was silent, so he reminded him: "Director Zhang, just give him a detailed explanation. Anyway, nothing will happen today."
Zhang Lin couldn't help but sneer:
What do you mean it's okay? It was obviously you who forced me to come back from the set. There were so many people passing by and there were still a lot of things waiting for me on the set.
Forget it, I'll settle down now that I'm here, and I should teach the newcomer Wen Zheng a lesson.
He took out the cigarette, spread it around, and said with a smile: "Then I will explain it to you in detail, so that it will be convenient for you... uh, to create."
"Although our Dragon Kingdom has completely suppressed other countries in terms of economy, military, etc., only the cultural aspect is lagging far behind. Whether it is film, television, music, or the literary circle, there has obviously not been much progress in these years, which has given the capital powers a chance to
There is an opportunity to take advantage of it. Now the higher authorities intend to catch up on this aspect, but they have to catch it. Movies are still groping. For TV series, we will start with our four famous works. I am groping for Water Margin."
Zhang Lin took a deep breath of cigarette, looked at Wen Zheng and said with a smile: "You are from Yueyin Records. You should know the reason for this, but yours is considered a section of the music industry."
Wen Zheng nodded to show that he knew.
Zhang Lin continued: "These classics of ours have been remade in other countries, but they are not of the essence. They are completely wasting our stuff. Lu Zhishen became a greasy monk, and Wu Song became a savage wearing animal skins. Alas... I am even more angry.
The funny thing is, these things they shot blindly are quite popular abroad. So our filming of Water Margin this time is of great significance, and the higher authorities attach great importance to it, and the army is invited to help in some big scenes. Now only the soundtrack and theme song,
There is no suitable person to take over yet.”
This was meant not only for Wen Zheng but also for Yao Guangxiao. It was to tell them that if you want to show up and become famous, that is absolutely fine, but you must not interfere with the quality of creation, and you cannot bring the style of a popular star into the crew.
The more Wen Zheng listened, the more he felt something was wrong, and he couldn't help but murmur in his heart.
I just want to see the trailer. If it's similar to Blue Star's Water Margin, then I can just ask the system to package the soundtrack. Anyway, the more than 200 million adoration points haven't been touched yet.
But you keep emphasizing the importance of this TV series to me. Do you doubt my ability?
He hesitated for a moment and then said bluntly: "The Water Margin you are talking about, are there 108 heroes who were exploited from gathering for justice to recruiting for peace?"
"Uh...that's right."
Zhang Lin was also speechless by his simple and crude summary.
Wen Zheng crushed the cigarette butt and said in a deep voice: "To be honest, I have some thoughts about this. Let's take a rest here for the night, and I'll trouble you to go to Yueyin Records for acceptance tomorrow morning. How about it?"
"This... there's no need to be in such a hurry."
Zhang Lin didn't expect that Wen Zheng was still impatient. He was originally worried about his lack of ability, but now he actually wanted to come up with the soundtrack for a TV series in one night. It seemed that this kid was really too young and took things for granted.
Yao Guangxiao couldn't help but advise: "There is no need to be in such a hurry. This TV series is a project designated by the superiors, so there is no room for sloppiness."
Wen Zheng waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I know it well. If you are not satisfied with what I come up with tomorrow, then I will give up this opportunity to avoid wasting everyone's time."
When Zhang Lin heard this, he pretended to be hesitant and immediately replied: "That's okay. Then I'll go find you tomorrow morning."
Yao Guangxiao opened his mouth, but no words came out.
Anyway, the opportunity has been given to Wen Zheng. Whether he can use it well or not, he really can't help. Even if this matter turns out to be dirty, the worst I can do is invest in a movie myself and let him be the protagonist. It's not as good as CCTV.
Poor appearance.
Before leaving.
Yao Guangxiao pointed to his garage and said, "I see you like cars very much. How about you pick one? All the procedures are in place."
Wen Zheng smiled and said: "I can't afford to keep those babies. Besides, I like low-key ones. The ones in the garage are too high-profile to drive out. I accept your offer and will visit you another day."
"Okay, I'll ask Black Dog to take you back."
Yao Guangxiao winked at his subordinates, but he remembered the word "low-key" in his mind.
He is a person who repays kindness, not to mention that his father also likes this child, so there is no harm in getting closer to him.
On the way back to the city.
Wen Zheng took out his mobile phone and called Lin Qingge and said bluntly: "Boss, I have won a big project for our company. It may not make any money, but it will definitely make us famous."
"Don't tell me that you have negotiated with the mall for the opening show. I can't afford to embarrass this person."
Lin Qingge said angrily.
Wen Zheng was speechless and said: "Did you know that Water Margin is filming a TV series? I just met Director Zhang and I was offered the soundtrack by them. How is it? Isn't it awesome?"
"Awesome! I just heard about this, and I was thinking about taking over part of it, even if it means borrowing a recording studio. After all, our equipment here is the best in the country. I didn't expect you to have already taken over all of it."
Lin Qingge sighed with emotion and asked: "Tell me, what do you need me to do?"
"The orchestra must have people who are proficient in traditional musical instruments. I am rushing to the company now and plan to stay up all night tonight because I have to give the finished product tomorrow morning."
"Are you crazy? I can pay for the band to work overtime, but are you sure you can do it in one night?"
"Director Zhang doesn't believe me now, so I have to give him the finished product tomorrow morning, otherwise he will find someone else to do it. Didn't we miss this good opportunity to become famous in vain? What's more important is that there are still three films that have not been filmed. If our company
If we get this soundtrack, they will come to us in the future."
"Then... okay, I'll go crazy with you once. Anyway, it's a wasted opportunity."
Wen Zheng: "..."
hang up the phone.
Wen Zheng seemed to be concentrating with his eyes closed, but in fact he had summoned the system.
on the panel.
Name: Wen Zheng
Age:21
Occupation: Singer.
Idol character: a real man idol.
Worship value:201687935↑
Items: Song; Top Driving Skill.
"System, is there any soundtrack for Water Margin?"
Wen Zheng asked in his heart, and the system directly switched the page. A folder for the Blue Star 98 version of Water Margin appeared in front of him, with a mark below that required a worship value of 1.5 billion.
After he clicked on it, he found that there were categories, directors, screenwriters, characters, music, editing, photography, art, martial arts guidance, etc... The music category opened when he clicked on it, and the content covered theme songs, ending songs, and 21 soundtracks.
.
However, there was no adoration value in the classification, which gave Wen Zheng a bad feeling.
The system's prompt sounded in time: "Qiu Mi! You do not have enough permissions now to purchase the content in the subfolder separately. The system recommends that you win the divisional championship of the singer competition, or complete special achievements to unlock secondary permissions; otherwise, please directly
Purchase the entire folder contents."
"Oh my God, you are blatantly bundling sales! The TV series is almost ready to be filmed, and now they only need the soundtrack. It would be a huge loss for me to buy them all!"
Wen Zheng almost went crazy, but the system ignored him at all.
No matter what, the bullshit was blown out, and he could only take down the entire folder with tears in his eyes.
The 1.5 billion worship points disappeared in an instant, leaving only more than 51 million worship points in the book, and a free lottery opportunity that was just given.
"The company doesn't belong to me, no matter how I think about it, it's a loss!"
When Wen Zheng was about to cry but had no tears, the car had already arrived at the downstairs of Yueyin Records, and Zhao Qiuxing had been waiting here.
"Brother! Are you sure about this? The orchestra members are here, they are all big names in folk music. They said that if you don't have the music score, no matter how much money they give you, they won't waste time with you."
