Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1254 Jazz

Lin Daoqiu didn't have any opinion on Anita Mui's singing skills, but he felt that this song was not well chosen.

"Mr. Lin, what kind of song do you think should be replaced?"

Although Teddy Robin thought he knew more about music than Lin Daoqiu, since the boss said so, it was impossible for him to argue with the other party.

And based on his understanding of Lin Daoqiu, the other party is definitely not a reckless boss, especially in the field of movies, he is very talented, listen to what he said is right.

"There is a song called "Rose Rose I Love You", I don't know if you have heard it?"

The song Lin Daoqiu said was a Chinese song sung by Yao Li in the 40s, and it was later sung by many singers in Baodao and Xiangjiang.

In 1951, singer Frankie Lane sang it and immediately became popular abroad.

"I know the song, and I've sung it before in the ballroom."

For this song, Teddy Robin must have heard it, and Anita Mui also sang it when performing in the karaoke hall before.

But this song "Rose Rose I Love You" is a bit different from the song in Lin Daoqiu's impression.

In the previous life, Anita Mui sang "Rose Rose I Love You" in "Miracle", the lyrics were changed to Cantonese, and the genre was also changed to jazz.

If you follow Lin Daoqiu's request and sing "Rose Rose I Love You" in the way they know now, then this song is really not particularly attractive.

"Mr. Lin, do you think this song is really suitable?"

Teddy Robin was a little skeptical about this, after all, the "Rose Rose I Love You" he knew was nothing special.

"Since Amei has sung it, let's sing a short part live."

Lin Daoqiu is not sure what is the difference between the current "Rose Rose I Love You" and the song he knows.

Now that Lin Daoqiu said so, Anita Mui would not refuse, and there happened to be a band invited nearby, and everything was ready.

After the front played, Lin Daoqiu already felt that the melody of this song was very different from the one he knew.

After Anita Mui sang for a while, Lin Daoqiu already had an idea in his mind.

"If this song is performed in this way, it is not suitable. I think the lyrics have to be changed to Cantonese, and the melody of the song has to be rearranged. I think it should be good to perform it in a brisk jazz style."

Teddy Robin can handle changing the melody, and after hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, he also thinks he can give it a try.

As for changing the lyrics, Teddy Robin had already figured out who to ask for help.

"You can ask Uncle Zhan for help with the lyrics. I will finish the adaptation of the song as soon as possible."

For Teddy Robin, it is not very difficult to rearrange the melody of a song, but it also takes a few days.

As for the lyrics, there shouldn't be any problems with Huang Zhan, unless Lin Daoqiu has very high requirements for the lyrics, otherwise it should be done soon.

After chatting with Teddy Robin and Anita Mui for a while, Lin Daoqiu came to the other side of the set of "Heroes".

This is an old building that Lin Daoqiu asked to build according to the Kowloon Walled City. It originally had three sides, but due to time constraints, Lin Daoqiu asked them to change it to two sides.

Now the main body of the building has a rough shape, and the only thing left now is the exterior and interior decoration, which will take another month.

After Lin Daoqiu went to Baodao to film, the supervisor here became Mai Jia, after all, he is the chief director of "The Heroes".

As soon as Lin Daoqiu arrived at the scene, he saw from a distance that Mai Jia was discussing something with a group of people, and besides Mai Jia, Wang Jing was also following him.

"Mr. Lin is here..."

After someone saw Lin Daoqiu appearing, they immediately reminded Mai Jia and Wang Jing.

When the two turned around and saw Lin Daoqiu walking towards them, they immediately rushed forward to meet them.

"I heard that Mr. Lin has returned from Baodao, but it is said that some additional shots will be taken, so we don't want to bother you."

The second day after Lin Daoqiu returned to Xiangjiang, he went non-stop to make up the remaining shots of "Sister Royal", so it was not good for Mai Jia and the others to bother him.

"It's been a lot of hard work for you during this time. I can see that the main body of the building has been built in sevens and eighties, and the scaffolding outside has been dismantled. Now it should only be a matter of decoration?"

Mai Jia nodded, Lin Daoqiu was right, the scaffolding was dismantled a week ago, and now the workers are preparing to paint the exterior wall.

But as for those rooms, all of them are still rough now, and it will take some time to fully decorate them.

"Tell them to speed up the construction, I hope "The Heroes" can officially enter the shooting stage in three weeks."

"Mr. Lin, is three weeks too tight? I think it will take at least one month."

Before Mai Jia could speak, the person in charge of the nearby construction site came forward to complain to Lin Daoqiu.

The original four-month construction period, they have worked overtime to shorten the time a lot, it can be said that they have tried their best.

But now Lin Daoqiu wants them to speed up the progress, which is a bit too embarrassing for them.

"Don't worry, I know everyone has worked hard during this time, I will pay you 20.00% more wages as a reward, three weeks should be no problem, right?"

When the person in charge of the construction site heard that Lin Daoqiu was willing to increase the money, of course he would not refuse, and he would add [-]% for every increase. Where can he find such a generous customer.

Pretending to be very hesitant, he finally nodded and agreed in a very 'difficult' way.

"Since Mr. Lin has said so, then I will try to find a way."

Lin Daoqiu was very satisfied with the other party's answer, and any problems that could be solved with money were not a problem for him.

After inspecting the set of "The Meeting of Heroes", Lin Daoqiu returned to New Oriental to get rid of the mountains of work that had piled up before.

Not long after he returned to his office and sat down, Fang Jinsheng brought Lin Daoqiu some news that surprised him.

"Qiu Dagen, the deputy general manager of the Far East Group, called just now and said he wanted to meet with you."

Lin Daoqiu, who was about to process the documents, raised his head slowly after hearing what Fang Jinsheng said.

Who is Qiu Dagen Lin Daoqiu has some impression, he is Qiu Dagen's son.

He and Qiu Degen had such an argument, why did Mr. Qiu ask him to meet at this time?Could it be that he wants to be a peacemaker?
But after all, Lin Daoqiu had never met Qiu Dagen, and he didn't know the other person's appearance and temperament at all, so it was impossible for him to guess what Qiu Dagen asked him to talk about.

But since Qiu Dagen was interested in meeting him, Lin Daoqiu didn't intend to refuse. He also wanted to know what kind of attitude the Qiu family had towards the sale of ATV.
