You can't imagine the happiness of the group performance

Chapter 194 Eighteen Floors of Hell Wind New Album

The casting audition for "Small Bag" is in full swing.

This also let many people know: Jiang Yan is going to start a TV series.

This matter is naturally welcome in the eyes of fans.

After all, fans, to put it bluntly, idol shit smells good.

But many in the industry see it differently.

As a popular singer, Jiang Yan is justified in playing a role, so why don't he just start doing a TV series?
From a professional point of view, they are naturally not optimistic.

As the screenwriter of "Infernal Affairs", you are very good, but it is a movie, which is very different from a TV series.

In addition, it's all right if you play Bao Qingtian. If you make a young Bao Qingtian, the actors are all young people, and there are not many veteran actors. Can the quality be guaranteed?
So this is what fans pay for, right?
So a voice said, Jiang Yan has changed, and he has started to lose money.

In this regard, Jiang Yan felt that such a voice was normal.

After all, TV dramas are still in a stage of drastic change.

"Returning the Pearl" has just started, and there will be more and more dramas similar to this youth idol style.

But now is the era when 98 and 98 intersect.

It is true that "Returning the Pearl" is very popular, but the industry's views on "Returning the Pearl" are still in an "unique" attitude.

As for the trend of youth idols, we will have to wait for "Returning the Pearl 2" to get over 70% of the horror ratings, and then everyone will really understand that this is the trend.

So Jiang Yan, as a popular singer, gathered a group of young people before "Returning the Pearl 2" came out to make a TV series with an ancient costume theme and an obvious adaptation. Except for fans, most people in the industry liked it. Not optimistic.

This kind of pessimistic evaluation has become more and more with the continuation of the "Small Bag" audition.

Is Jiang Yan under pressure? There must be a little bit of pressure. He is afraid that public opinion will affect the review.

However, the leader of Lantai said that there was no problem, so Jiang Yan completely let go of his mind.

As for public opinion, he just responded: Everything depends on the work.

Therefore, the outside world's discussion on "Small Package" is still within the normal range so far, and it will only explode when the work is released.

So many people felt that Jiang Yan was holding his breath.

The music is gone, and all my thoughts are on making TV series, preparing to slap those noises in the face.

Because of this, many friends came to call.

The general meaning is to encourage and cheer.

Among them, Jia Jingwen even said that she would come to help him, any role would do.

Jiang Yan said thank you for your kindness, but forget it this time, and let you be the heroine when the show starts next time.

Jia Jingwen asked if the heroine this time is your rumored girlfriend Zhou Zhiruo?

Jiang Yan said no.

Jia Jingwen didn't know what to think, but hung up the phone happily.

In addition to her, Jin Qiaoqiao also called, but her purpose was obvious, asking if she could take a role, Jiang Yan was doing business, and said to audition, and then, there was no more.

Then there were many calls from people, Yu Feihong came up and questioned why she didn't reserve a role for her, or if she was still a friend, Jiang Yan had to beg for mercy repeatedly, saying that he would try to arrange one, and Yu Feihong hung up the phone with satisfaction.

Jiang Yan was very touched, they are all friends.

But it's a pity that Zeng Li didn't call, Jiang Yan was a little disappointed.

Of course, apart from these, there was someone who came to remind me to change, and that was Zhou Jianhui.

. . . . . . .

"I understand your thoughts, hold your breath and prove to the whole world, that's right."

Zhou Jianhui persuaded, "But your main business is a singer. We agreed in the contract that the first album will be produced in March. But in the current situation, can we make it in time?"

Jiang Yan said with a smile: "It's too late, don't worry!"

The next few words fooled Zhou Jianhui.

The main job is a singer?That is fooling you.

Not to mention, can you get the film resources of the company behind you?

Besides, releasing an album is nothing more than a big deal to him!

So Jiang Yan didn't worry much about it.

However, the next day, he saw Zhou Jianhui in Warehouse No. [-].

Zhou Jianhui persuaded him when he came up: "My Mr. Jiang, I'm betting all of my wealth and life on you!"

Zhou Jianhui was really wronged.

After signing the contract, Jiang Yan directly turned into a salted fish.

This salted fish refers to the salted fish in the music scene.

Jiang Yan kept pushing for various brand cooperations that had been agreed upon.

The reason is also very hard, to prepare for the Spring Festival Gala.

Zhou Jianhui was happy to see the results. After all, the Spring Festival Gala is the biggest stage in China. Jiang Yan can go up and shout, which will greatly increase his popularity.

So for Jiang Yan's "Salted Fish", he expressed his support in the past, but just reminded him not to forget to write songs.

But now, he is actually engaged in a TV series!

This is not doing business properly!

And it hurt his feelings!

So Zhou Jianhui was angry and anxious.

Of course, this alone is not enough to make him come to the door and cry directly.

Because in terms of the music scene, Jiang Yan's situation is actually not very good.

. . . . . . .

By the end of 98, Jiang Yan's last album "DNA" had sold more than 300 million copies, becoming the sales champion of the entire Chinese music scene in 98.

The second place is Ren Xianqi's "Love in the Pacific", with sales exceeding 160 million.

This result is hundreds of thousands lower than the original time and space, and the reason is naturally because of Jiang Yan, who made him release at the same time as Jiang Yan.

However, Ren Xianqi has an advantage, that is the Hong Kong and Taiwan markets, and most of the 160 million sales came from the Wanwan market. On the other hand, Jiang Yan’s sales in the Wanwan market are almost none, and some of them are Pirated discs, after all, Ryefield is indeed much weaker than the big record companies.

Therefore, Jiang Yan's suppression of Ren Xianqi is actually not that great from the sales data of the original version.

However, everyone in the industry knew that after Jiang Yan and Warner cooperated, Ren Xianqi would not be so lucky next year.

Also lucky was Yehenala.

Yehenala's "Conquest" has an annual sales volume of more than 160 million.

She was lucky because the song was released in April, and Jiang Yan didn't even know where she was at that time.

So it was a disaster, but it will be hard to say next year.

But Yehenara is not stupid after all, she has already communicated with Jiang Yan, and she will stagger him in next year's post.

But Jiang Yan knew that Yehenala's "Conquer" broke 200 million in the original time and space, so the impact was not big?They think too much.

In addition, 98 years in the original time and space is actually the year of the Queen of Heaven.

Because apart from Yehenala, Li Wen’s two albums both broke one million, plus Wang Fei, who performed well, and Peng Jiahui, who became famous for a song, and after that, Gigi Leung, Cheng Huilin, etc., most of them are famous. All female singers.

But also because of Jiang Yan's appearance, 98 became the "Year of the Heavenly King" in the industry.

Many industry insiders in Hong Kong and Taiwan are dissatisfied with the "Year of the King of Heaven".

When one person rises and blocks the way of many people, some people in Hong Kong and Taiwan will naturally not feel comfortable.

So they started singing the opposite tune.

It is said that Jiang Yan, as a Chinese pop singer, has not sold results in Hong Kong and Taiwan, so his achievements are all false.

This is purely a dead duck's mouth.

Warner Chow Kin Fai was the first to sneer at the clamor of these jumping clowns.

He calculated the data himself, and according to his analysis, if Jiang Yan's cooperation partner in 98 was changed from Wheatfield to Warner, then the sales of 300 million albums would be at least 150 million more!
In other words, the sales volume in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia is at least 150, and the total is close to 500 million!
This is not an exaggeration to call the king of Asia.

So what's wrong with "Year of the Uranus"?
But this is just an ideal state. After all, Jiang Yan did not enter the Hong Kong and Taiwan markets in 98.

Those who hold opposing views, in addition to questioning the sales performance, also have their eyes on the indicator of awards.

. . . . . .

After 98, the award ceremonies of major music circles became active.

In the mainland, Jiang Yan is naturally the number one target of the major award ceremonies.

Jiang Yan was sent invitations to awards from Magic City, Beijing, Guangdong Province, TV stations, radio stations, and corporate background awards.

If these people didn't invite Jiang Yan, Jiang Yan wouldn't know that there are so many awards in the country.

However, the gold content of these awards is not very high, and many awards are temporary or specially organized for a certain group.

Among the influencing factors of the awards, the quality of the songs often has to be sidelined, while the preferences of the title sponsor, the preferences of the judges, and the personal qualifications of the singers account for a larger proportion.

Sometimes the title sponsor changes, or the judges change their minds, the final result of the award will also change, and even the entire awards ceremony will be changed to another form, and in serious cases, it will even be suspended.

Jiang Yan even received a phone call, and some award presenters directly said that as long as you can come, the award is easy to discuss.

So to put it bluntly, these are basically pheasant awards, regardless of credibility and authority.

But to say that the mainland's awards ceremony is not authoritative enough, Hong Kong and Taiwan are enough?

In fact, it is still relying on peers to set off.

For example, the Wanwan Golden Melody Award is stable, and the trend of sitting in a row is a little weaker than that in the mainland, so it seems that the authority of this award has risen immediately.

However, although the list of this year's Wanwan Golden Melody Awards has not yet been announced, Zhou Jianhui received the news that Jiang Yan probably did not even have nominations.

The reason is also very simple, because "DNA" was not released in Wanwan, so Jiang Yan did not meet the evaluation criteria of the Wanwan Golden Melody Awards.

This reason is very reasonable, after all, Jiang Yan did not have this qualification in 98.

So this year's Wanwan Golden Melody Awards can be regarded as a sigh of relief.

Otherwise, there is really no suspense.

Awarded to you, Ren Xianqi and all the male singers have to kneel.

If it is not awarded to you, it means that the credibility is gone.

So simply use this reason to let you continue to work hard next time.

And Hong Kong's Top Ten Golden Melody Awards Ceremony this year also followed suit and did not nominate Jiang Yan.

The Hong Kong and Taiwan music scene, which has a high self-esteem, has done this.

This made some people start to make trouble with it.

You see, Jiang Yan only thinks that the mainland media is great. In Hong Kong and Taiwan, he wants sales but no sales, and he wants awards but no awards.

To put it bluntly, it is the self-appointed king of the mainland.

And what is the level of popular music in the mainland, so what is the gold content of this?
As for the next album?
Look at it, Jiang Lang is talking about him.

This is actually making trouble for no reason and engaging in short-term hype.

I didn't even think about what would happen if I was slapped in the face next year.

But Zhou Jianhui also understands this kind of behavior very well. After all, it is not in his own interest to admit that others are strong and to advertise to them.

If he were the media, although he wouldn't be so disgusting, he would never mention Jiang Yan. Wouldn't it be good to leave all the attention to his own stars?
But Jiang Yan was with him now, so Zhou Jianhui held his breath.

He said: "Jiang Yan, you have to hold your breath, the fate of pop music in the mainland, as well as our Warner Bros., are all in your hands!"

In fact, Jiang Yan is not only related to Warner's strategy in Asia, but also related to Zhou Jianhui's future.

After all, he fought for film resources with his teachers and the group.

So don't look at the cooperation talks going smoothly, but Zhou Jianhui gave up most of his credit here.

Even people in Sony thought Zhou Jianhui was crazy.

But if it wasn't like this, how could Zhou Jianhui take down Jiang Yan?
So if Jiang Yan dies next time, Warner may not necessarily die, but Zhou Jianhui will definitely die with him.

That's why Zhou Jianhui came here.

He had to know what Jiang Yan meant. If he really didn't have time to write songs, then he would collect songs for Jiang Yan as soon as possible.

Otherwise, all the words released in March will be released, and the quality will not be good by then, and everything will be over.

Jiang Yan said with a smile: "I actually don't pay much attention to the evaluation of the outside world."

As he said that, he changed the topic again: "However, I'm still willing to do things like crushing."

Zhou Jianhui raised his eyebrows happily when he heard this and said, "Has the song been written yet?"

"Of course!" Jiang Yan said with a smile, "In addition to Chinese, there is also English, and I can even add Japanese if you want."

"English is fine too? But it's useless in the Chinese music scene." Zhou Jianhui asked.

"Of course it's not used in the Chinese music scene." Jiang Yan said with a smile, "The media don't look down on mainland awards, so let's create an award for foreigners and see how they slap their faces."

"Jiang Yan, you have to calm down!"

Zhou Jianhui adjusted his glasses. He knew that the English album was stipulated in the contract, but Jiang Yan said that it would be too exaggerated to rely on this to win foreign awards. After all, you are Chinese!
But Jiang Yan said: "I'm very calm. If foreigners can't get awards, then let's focus on sales. Sales can explain everything, right?"

"That's right. There are no Chinese who can achieve success in the European and American pop music circles. If your song can achieve some success, it can be used for publicity." Zhou Jianhui agreed, but immediately returned I asked, "But that's still the problem. After all, it's not the Chinese entertainment industry. Can you handle things like style and rhythm?"

Jiang Yan smiled slightly and turned on the computer.

Soon, a piece of rhythmic music came out.

A few minutes later, Zhou Jianhui's eyes widened, and he looked at Jiang Yan like a god.

"How?" Jiang Yan asked.

"You really wrote it?"

"nonsense!"

"Then I have to find my teacher, just wait..."

Zhou Jianhui called excitedly.

And Jiang Yan began to think about which songs he wanted for the Chinese album.

. . . . . .

Regarding the choice of Chinese songs, Jiang Yan has already decided on a few songs.

The first song "Chi Ling", this song was originally recorded in the last album, but it was finally removed because of Jiang Yan's singing skills and the Spring Festival Gala, but this time, Jiang Yan will not let it go.

At the same time, since I have the purple Gandan skill, how can I show off enough with just "Red Ling", so let's play "Drawing the Silk Opera" again.

It is also a style similar to "Wukong". With "Wukong" as the background, the audience should be able to accept it.

The biggest controversy is estimated to be the conversion of male and female voices.

However, with the support of opera masters such as Mr. Zuo, some noise may not become a big deal.

Besides, Jiang Yan doesn't care about the noise, he just sings, advances along the way, and can do whatever he wants.

Of course, the expectations of the fans have to be guaranteed, so the whole album will not only have this style.

So the third song is the national style that is closer to the modern point: "Jiangnan".

This song can be regarded as Junjie's masterpiece, and it is one of Wang Zha's Divine Comedy in Yuan Shikong in 04.

In fact, the biggest reason for choosing this song is because of Zhou Zhiruo.

Last night Zhou Zhiruo asked what song she wrote, and Jiang Yan said that one was inspired by her.

Zhou Zhiruo was excited on the spot, and then asked Jiang Yan to sing.

There was no other way, so Jiang Yan had no choice but to sing Jiangnan.

After listening to it, Zhou Zhiruo said that this song is beautiful and she likes it very much, but she is also puzzled, it seems that this song has nothing to do with her.

Jiang Yan smiled and said: "Circle circle circle circle circle circle, your name is all in it, what do you want to do!"

Zhou Zhiruo instantly turned into a tigress. . .

When it comes to the ancient Chinese style, Brother Shan Gao is naturally unable to escape the clutches, so the fourth song is "Broken Bridge and Remnant Snow".

The reason is very simple, the styles are similar, and Jiang Yan is from Zhejiang Province, so there is nothing wrong with writing about Jiangnan and West Lake.

The beauty of this song lies in the lyrics. When the picky music critics finish their criticisms, they may turn around and kneel down to "Broken Bridge and Remnant Snow".

Next, Milk Tea Week will appear again.

The Chinese style of Milk Tea Week is the most powerful, so "Dongfeng Po" is indispensable.

In addition, Jiang Yan also took aim at "Black Sweater", which was associated with the sweater Zeng Li gave away.

Zeng Li is a good girl, but unfortunately Jiang Yan is not a good man, so let's use the song to express my feelings.

Well, in fact, it was carried casually. Which song is not a good song for Milk Tea Week?
The next song, "It's a pity that there is no if", is a song 10 years later, and there is no risk in moving it.

Why choose it?

Because it's all random.

The computer brought by another world, click on the music software, just pull a series of good songs, click on the soldiers, the first one is selected, that's why it appears here.

So releasing an album is really not a problem for Jiang Yan.

At most, it's just a matter of style.

And Jiang Yan's evaluation from the outside world is that he is a creative genius with changeable styles, which cannot be judged by common sense.

So even if the song "I'm Playing with Mud in the Northeast" suddenly appeared in Jiang Yan's album, probably not many people would be surprised.

So the following songs are very simple, all selected by machine.

"Exclusive Memory", the song of the pheasant, one of the must-play divine comedies on KTV, Jiang Yan ruthlessly accepted it.

"Suddenly Miss You", the song of Mayday, is also one of the must-play songs on KTV, and it was once again mercilessly accepted.

"Little Love Song", Sodagreen's song, this song is really difficult for others to sing, but for Jiang Yan now, he can grasp it with his hands. Of course, this is still one of the ktv divine songs.

"Twilight", Xiao Gang's song, Wang Zha's Divine Comedy!The same is ktv. . .

Wait a minute!
Jiang Yan stopped, wondering if he clicked on the ktv column.

So let's watch the next one, good guy, "King of Karaoke"!
This is really stabbing the ktv nest.

But this is also good, KTV must have songs, which means that the singing is highly popular, and it is still in Cantonese, so there are also Cantonese songs.

So continuing, Jiang Yan also included "Gong Xi Fa Cai", the song to be sung in this year's Spring Festival Gala, and the album will be released in the next year, so it was included to make up the number.

But it's just making up the numbers, maybe this song is the most widely sung. . .

The next song is "As long as I have you", which is the ending song of "Small Bag". After the year, the album will be linked with the TV series, which can be regarded as making up the number.

"Infatuation Absolutely" is another Wang Zha Divine Comedy in 03, and it is also one of the top ktv divine comedies.

A must-singing spare tire Divine Comedy for hunks, Jiang Yan's singing of this bitter love song probably drove many people crazy, you are so handsome, which woman would dump you? !
This is true, so Jiang Yan decided to sing to Zhou Zhiruo first, wondering if he could unlock more poses.

The next one is "First Dream", an inspirational track, and there must be several songs like this in an album to spice it up.

Because of this, Jiang Yan thought of "Stubborn".

Take it in too, maybe it will be the class song of many students in the future.

If there is something for students and young people, there must be something for adults.

So "Your Answer" came out.

There are [-] songs in total, including rock, ancient, popular, inspirational, worrying about the country and the people, and love.

Not to mention the song quality.

Jiang Banxian has maintained a super high standard as always, and can make the title song in every capital.

So there are eighteen songs in total, like eighteen levels of hell.

Who the hell?

Of course it is the hell of the Hong Kong and Taiwan charts!Opponent hell!Award shows hell. . .

What is this called?
After "Infernal Affairs", it comes down in one continuous line.

So you say the style is not uniform?

We are hell wind!
So no nominations?
Then let's bring a "darkest time" to the discourse music world!

. . . . . .

Is this kind of album called God Special?What would others think of him?Is it too unreasonable?

In fact, Jiang Yan is not interested in discussing this.

When a person can be so strong that he can crush ants to death with just a finger, will this person still care what the ants think?

So Jiang Yan just does whatever he wants, he can play whatever he wants, he is here to disrupt the situation, anyway, being a singer is not his main business.

To put it bluntly, Jiang Yan just doesn't have much ability, so he pretends to be compared. As for what others think?I love it!

As for the issue of sustainability, individuals will become weak. Jiang Yan understands this truth, so Jiang Yan only has one plan for the Chinese music scene.

That is to release three to five albums.

The reason, of course, is because of the cost performance.

Although Mv is good, it contributes too little to the progress.

So just play around, leave a legend, and then retreat bravely.

His main business is film and television drama.

It is also for this reason that he will focus on the European and American music scene.

To gain fame, moving songs is the easiest way.

Although the music world and the film world are not very related, fame is not easily compromised.

Having gained fame in the music world, entering the film world does not mean that everyone is optimistic about it, but there will always be attention.

Attention is traffic, traffic represents interest, and interest is the basis for maintaining all relationships.

With this foundation, Jiang Yan will have a lot more room to act in Hollywood.

Of course, entering the European and American music scene will also leave a good impression on Jiang Yan in the Chinese music scene.

He, Jiang Yan, is also reasonable, and he is not always sloppy, right?

So the choice of English songs is very simple.

Just like choosing Chinese songs at the beginning, it needs to be widely sung, popular enough, and the lyrics are not vulgar.

To be more specific, it is enough to visit the old American bulletin board.
