One person's entertainment

Chapter 75, A Song, A Play
“Why don’t you make your new songs into an EP and release them, but release them one by one on the radio?”

"I wrote this especially to celebrate Hong Kong's return. There are two more songs, which will be made into an EP at the end."

The purpose of Shen Lingyou bringing out these songs was initially to maintain popularity and increase the sales of the two albums "Heart Too Soft" and "Shen Lingyou", not for making money. Then the system refreshed a special opportunity, and it became a chart-topping project, and completing tasks resulted in rewards.

In fact, it is not difficult for him to put together 10 main theme songs, but there is no need to make money at this time.

Therefore, the main focus now is to maintain the popularity and hit the charts to win the championship.

Chen Jiantian smiled and said, "There is a song, and I am willful."

Now that Shen Lingyou has set up his own company and has his own plans, he can't say much about this matter. He turned to look at Huo Wenxi and asked, "Ah Xi, how do you feel about following Xiao Shen?"

Huo Wenxi pursed his lips lightly and smiled: "Mr. Chen, thank you very much for finding me."

It seems that Chen Jiantian’s question has not been answered, but in fact the best answer has been given.

"My vision is still pretty good, right?" Chen Jiantian smiled.

What he said was a double entendre.

First, I found a good agent for Shen Lingyou.

Second, he recommended a good boss to Huo Wenxi.

"Brother Chen, your vision is impeccable." Shen Lingyou picked up the wine bottle on the dining table, filled a glass for Chen Jiantian, and then filled his own glass as well.

"Xiao Shen, you don't have to accompany me. You are only 19 years old, and it's time for you to grow up. It's not good for you to drink too much. Just drink tea or beverages." Chen Jiantian is not fond of drinking culture, and he understands Shen Lingyou.

"It's okay to have a drink or two." Shen Lingyou picked up the wine glass and said, "Brother Chen, I'll toast you a glass. Thank you for your care."

"You, why are you being so polite to me?" Chen Jiantian saw that he looked sincere, so he drank a glass with him. After putting down the glass, he smiled and said, "Tell me, is there anything you need my help with?"

He is an old hand, how could he not see it?

"I told you..." Shen Lingyou looked at Huo Wenxi and said, "Nothing can escape Brother Chen's sharp eyes."

After saying that, he turned to Chen Jiantian. It was tiring to take detours, but sometimes you can't be too direct. Now that Chen Jiantian has pointed it out, there is nothing to say. He said, "This is it, Brother Chen. I wrote a TV script and am doing the early preparations. I want to ask if you are interested."

Chen Jiantian understood that they were trying to persuade him to invest, so he didn't rush to express his opinion. He first asked, "You've only been in college for one semester, and you've already written the script? But I remember that you studied acting, didn't you?"

Shen Lingyou made up a story: "I joined an acting class, but I learned everything, such as writing scripts, photography, directing, etc. As for this TV script, I wrote it before. At that time, I read a news article in the newspaper about a drug enforcement policeman who risked his life and tried his best to fight drug crimes. He could not show his face during his lifetime and his tombstone was nameless after his death. So I wrote a song called "The Lone Brave Man". Later, I fell in love with acting, so I learned to write a script called "Never Close Your Eyes"..."

Chen Jiantian listened very carefully.

Huo Wenxi, who was standing by, was also listening for the first time to Shen Lingyou's talk about the process of writing "Never Close Your Eyes".

The more they listened, the more they thought he was "outrageous".

Yes, it's outrageous, because it can no longer be described as amazing.

He actually wrote a song for a piece of news and also wrote a script for the song.

After he finished speaking, Chen Jiantian became very interested and asked, "Can I listen to the song "The Lone Brave Man" you wrote?"

He was more interested in the songs than the script.

When Huo Wenxi heard this, his eyes flashed and he looked at Shen Lingyou with anticipation.

Now, she is not only interested in Shen Lingyou's new songs, but also in Shen Lingyou's song inventory.
However, she knew her identity and could not cross that line.

For Shen Lingyou, he just sang, since he had already applied for the copyright of the song, so he started singing immediately: "All are brave, the wound on your forehead, your differences, the mistakes you made..."

After listening to the beginning part, Chen Jiantian was already sure that this was a song of above-average quality.

However, there are many such songs in the current Chinese music scene. If you want to win the annual champion single or even launch a TV series, it is far from enough.

Huo Wenxi had the same idea.

After all, she used to be in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, so she knows what kind of song can be considered a "king bomb".

"Sounding good" is a necessary condition, but not the only condition. It also needs to have a hot spot and a selling point.

However, the more they listened to the song, the more their first impression of it changed.

Why is loneliness not glorious?

People are only imperfect and worthy of praise
Who says those covered in mud are not heroes..."

……

"Are you going?

this ragged cloak
Fight? Fight?
with the humblest dream
To the whimpering and roaring in the dark night
Who said that only those who stand in the light are heroes..."

……

Chen Jiantian and Huo Wenxi were conquered by just listening to Shen Lingyou singing it once.

It’s hard to imagine how explosive this song would be if sung in its original tune with accompaniment.

Narcotics police officer and lone hero, this is a perfect match.

"Salute to every lone hero."

"The Lone Brave Man" is a portrayal of Tang Tian herself, an ordinary person who is not good at speaking and walks alone on the street at night, a brave and strong person fighting cancer.

The lyrics she wrote are warm and powerful, giving people healing power.

She is a lyricist that Shen Lingyou likes very much.

“I voted for this play.”

If Chen Jiantian was hesitant when he heard that Shen Lingyou wrote the script himself and filmed the movie, then after listening to this song, he no longer had any hesitation.

He is more emotional in doing things, just like when he left Hong Kong to come to the mainland with just a passion of "I want to be the best brand of original pop music in mainland China".

He never hesitates to do what he believes is right.

Shen Lingyou liked such straightforwardness, and said directly: "Brother Chen, you can rest assured. I, Shen Lingyou, never cheat my own people. This play is 100% profitable."

Chen Jiantian smiled and said, "You know, when I first talked to you about cooperation, you exuded this confidence, which is one of the reasons why I chose to cooperate with you."

Shen Lingyou poured more wine and said, "Brother Chen, thank you."

After Chen Jiantian finished, he said, "However, my cash flow has been tight recently. Zheng Jun, Tian Zhen, Xu Wei and others are all preparing new albums, so I can only take out 200 million. Don't think it's too little."

Shen Lingyou heard this and smiled, "Not a small amount, not a small amount. It's already a lot."

The budget he and Huo Wenxi decided on was 600 million, which was one third.

He shot a few commercials and did a few commercial performances, investing 200 million yuan and taking one-third of it.

Then, we can find sponsorship from brands like Dabao Aido, and the last third will be solved.
