Huayu: Starting from Fahrenheit

Chapter 97 Song Selection Meeting

"So, you've made things more difficult for us?"

Wu Zun looked at Wu Zhuo with a complicated expression.

He felt that it was really difficult for him.

I entered the entertainment industry originally to act, but ended up being assigned to a singing group, and there was also an involutionary maniac in the group.

It would be fine if he was better than them in singing and acting, but he always composed songs that were very difficult for them.

Hearing this, Wu Zhuo's expression became slightly serious.

He felt it necessary to have a good talk with a few members.

Especially Wu Zun.

Because he himself has average talent in this area, he is not too serious about singing and only wants to focus on acting well.

“Brother Wu Zun, I know you actually prefer acting.

But have you ever thought that the most important things for an actor are acting skills and popularity?

There is a huge difference between an actor with acting skills and popularity and an actor with neither.

Let’s not talk about the acting for now.

Where do you think your popularity comes from?

It's nothing more than relying on previous dramas, or like us, attracting fans through songs and then converting them into movie fans.

Maybe you don't like singing and you are not so willing to join Fahrenheit.

But you have to admit that Fahrenheit's support in this regard is actually of great help to you and me.

Typical examples are your and my "Oriental Juliet" and "Smiling Pasta".

Do you think that if Fahrenheit hadn't already gained popularity, would we have become so popular across the province so quickly?"

Having said that, Wu Zhuo looked at the other two people again.

“No matter how successful we are in other areas, Fahrenheit is actually our foundation.

Just like Brother Kevin, he doesn’t have any representative works in film and television.

But just because he is a member of Fahrenheit, he is now also a top figure in the Taiwanese entertainment industry.

Whether it's commercial performances, filming commercials or attending events, as long as Fahrenheit doesn't completely become a third-rate group, we will always have a place in the entertainment industry..."

Wu Zhuo didn't say directly that you should work hard.

When he said this, it would seem like he was blaming his teammates.

He just explained to everyone how important Fahrenheit was to them.

As long as they understand how important Fahrenheit is to them, they will consciously do their work as a group seriously.

Wu Zun and the other two were silent; each was lost in thought.

They are not fools.

Perhaps they already understood what Fahrenheit meant to them.

In fact, they all knew very well that among all the people in this group, Wu Chao was the one who least needed the group.

Now his reputation as a creative talent has spread.

When it comes to singing, he can’t say he can rival the God of Songs, but he is more than capable of releasing a solo album.

As for acting, he graduated from Huagang and he is better at acting than anyone else in the group.

For someone like him, there is absolutely no need for him to care too much about the combination.

But despite this, he is actually the hardest working one in the group.

"I have already applied to Huiying sister to hire vocal and dance teachers to train me. Later, I will also learn Korean. How far I can reach depends on the situation."

After a short silence, Calvin Chen was the first to speak.

Hearing what he said, the others looked at him in surprise.

“My dream is to become a big star, but I won’t have the opportunity to be the leading actor in a drama anytime soon.

Then I will work hard on the combination.

In fact, Huo Zhuo is right.

The added value that the group brings to us is actually really huge. You may not be able to feel it because you are filming recently, but I have been doing commercial performances all the time and I know very clearly what the identity of Fahrenheit means to me.

When I went to participate in a show, many people in the production team didn't know me, but as soon as they heard that I was a member of Fahrenheit, they immediately changed their faces and greeted me with a smile. "

There is always a sense of desolation in Calvin Chen’s words.

It's quite sad.

The group Fahrenheit has gained considerable popularity in Taiwan after the show "KO One".

The first album was released, competing head-on with the likes of JJ Lin, and its sales have exceeded 900,000 copies to date.

Coupled with the popularity of the TV series starring Wu Zhuo and Wu Zun, the name Fahrenheit has become increasingly valuable in the circle.

Even in such a group, Calvin Chen actually met program staff who didn't know him. It is easy to imagine how low his presence is in the group.

"Your chance just hasn't come yet. I believe that as long as you work hard to improve your business capabilities, sooner or later, everyone will recognize you."

Cases like Calvin Chen are not uncommon.

A typical example is Zhang Yixing in his previous life.

He had a weak presence among the four returning sons at the beginning.

But they know how to work hard and know what they want.

What is the final result?
While others were falling from their peak, he was overtaking them.

Although in Wu Chao's opinion, Calvin Chen may not be able to persist for too long, but if he can really make up his mind to practice, there should still be some results.

Anyway, he doesn't have many resources in the company's film and television positioning.

In this case, it is better to study and practice carefully.

If he keeps going, sooner or later, he will let others discover his shining points.

Besides, he is now a member of Fahrenheit.

Even if he is very popular in the team, that is only within the team. In the outside world, just being a member of Fahrenheit can give him a lot of points...

At ten o'clock, almost everyone who should be present was there and the meeting began.

Lu Shiyu personally presided over the meeting. He asked people to distribute the songs prepared by Wu Chao and some songs selected by the company.

"Including the three songs provided by Wu Zhuo, there are a total of 21 songs here. Let's take a look and select 10 songs for Fahrenheit's next album."

Seeing that everyone had received the songs, Lu Shiyu continued:
“I personally recommend three songs by Wu Zhuo, all of which have Chinese and Korean versions.

I think these three songs can be selected for the album first.”

What Lu Shiyu meant to tell everyone is that I am optimistic about Wu Zhuo's three poems. If you can't find any major problems with them, don't say anything about cutting them out.

"This song 'SORRY SORRY' only has the music, right? Where are the lyrics?"

The person who was speaking was Yang Zipu, the songwriter and composer for Huayan Records.

Among the songs selected by Fahrenheit this time, there is "I Like You So Much" composed by him.

“I only wrote the music for this song, and I have asked Brother Shi Rencheng to help with the lyrics.

It should be completed in the next two days.”

Wu Zhuo took the initiative to stand up and explain.

Lu Shiyu also spoke up, "This song is very good. As long as the lyrics are not too bad, the quality will not be too bad."

Hearing this, Yang Zipu said nothing more.

He wasn't targeting Wu Zhuo just now, he just simply felt that it was a bit inappropriate to have music without lyrics.

“Fahrenheit’s new album needs to take the Korean market into consideration.

This is not the first time we have tried to enter the Korean market, and we have failed several times in the past.

This time we must make a difference in the Korean market.

So when choosing songs, please consider the Korean market more."

Lu Shiyu reminded him emphatically.

Let everyone choose songs based on the tastes of Korean audiences.
