Chapter 151: A Song Written by Jay Chou!

Because of his performance during the audition, Zhang Yimou didn't have high hopes for Sheng Yunxuan's acting skills.

But after filming the scene with Gong Li was completed, Zhang Yimou finally understood why Sheng Yunxuan was known in the industry as a "powerful actor".

It's not something just anyone can do to be able to hold their own against Gong Li in a scene, delivering a natural and fluid performance.

It's highly likely that the reason for the poor performance at the audition was simply that the actor wasn't used to filming...

Although Zhang Yimou has been focusing on making commercial films in the past two years, at least he hasn't become like he was twenty years later, making money by filming murder mystery movies and enjoying it immensely...

At least for now, he is still pursuing the fusion of commerce and art.

At this moment, Sheng Yunxuan was seen in a similar light.

With her superb acting skills and high popularity, she truly succeeds in both art and commerce!

Zhang Yimou shouted "Cut!" with considerable satisfaction, and even smiled at Sheng Yunxuan to show his approval.

After the shoot, Sheng Yunxuan glanced at Gong Li next to him.

The dress is absolutely stunning, revealing most of the chest, making it a completely white expanse.

Tsk, the way they dress makes you want to glance over there.

Jay Chou once said that when acting opposite Gong Li, he didn't know where to look.

So it's not entirely incomprehensible that the crown prince couldn't control himself when facing his young stepmother in the story...

After glancing at it, Sheng Yunxuan quickly looked away and then took two steps to the side to create some distance.

He's twenty years older, we're even from different generations.

Besides, this is right under Zhang Yimou's nose!
At this moment, Sheng Yunxuan's emotions were very similar to those of the Crown Prince in the drama. He dared not have any more contact with this "Empress Dowager," and he no longer had to worry about quickly breaking out of character...

During a break from filming, not wanting to be affected by the conflict between Gong Li and Chow Yun-fat, Sheng Yunxuan simply went to find Chow Jie-lun.

Upon seeing Sheng Yunxuan arrive, Jay Chou immediately brought out his computer, pointed to the song demos on it, and said very kindly:
"You mentioned before that your company wanted to release an album for you and wanted to commission a song from me... Here, you can pick any song from these!"

Jay Chou often writes songs for others and has collaborated with many singers.

He already had quite a few songs saved up, and he often sang them for his friends.

After learning that Sheng Yunxuan wanted to release an album, he was naturally willing to help. It didn't make a difference to him, since he would just collect royalties anyway...

Sheng Yunxuan didn't stand on ceremony with him and took it to carefully search through it.

Those songs that resonate with him or that he particularly likes, such as the famous "Blue and White Porcelain" and "Far Away," are definitely not included here.

After all, they keep releasing new songs every year, so they have to take care of themselves first.

However, that doesn't mean there aren't any good songs in this collection!
After going through it once, Sheng Yunxuan heard a fairly familiar melody.

As soon as the melody began, Sheng Yunxuan couldn't help but imagine Eason Chan singing, "...I can only say I lost, maybe you were afraid..."

Sheng Yunxuan didn't hesitate, nor did he stand on ceremony with Zhou Jielun, and said directly: "This one will do!"

Seeing that Sheng Yunxuan had chosen this song, Zhou Jielun hesitated for a moment, but finally smiled and said to Sheng Yunxuan:
"Wow, you have good taste!"

Actually, he originally intended to give this song to Eason Chan, as the two had previously agreed to collaborate on it.

However, now that Sheng Yunxuan has taken a liking to something, and given that she had just said that Sheng Yunxuan could choose whatever he wanted, it was difficult to go back on her word.

As for Eason Chan? He can just rewrite a song. After all, Jay Chou is at the peak of his creative career and has plenty of creative passion!
So Sheng Yunxuan got the song "Elimination" from Jay Chou.

Well, if all goes well, this song should be enough for Sheng Yunxuan to retire in the music industry...

After taking the song "Elimination" back, the manager, Qin Qianrong, was clearly very happy.

Although no specific arrangements have been heard yet, both "The Return of the Condor Heroes" and "Qiao's Grand Courtyard," starring Sheng Yunxuan, are scheduled to be released in early 06, which is only a few months away.

Qin Qianrong planned to take advantage of Sheng Yunxuan's peak popularity to make a big foray into the music and film industries and push Sheng Yunxuan's career to even greater heights!
During this time, she has been busy with album production.

Unfortunately, he hasn't achieved much success so far, but through his connection with Sheng Yunxuan and Jay Chou, he managed to get a really good song.

After hearing that Qin Qianrong hadn't found a suitable song, Sheng Yunxuan pondered for a moment and then said:
"Try looking among the singers online; you should be able to find some good songs there."

"Songs from the internet?"

Qin Qianrong couldn't help but frown slightly, imagining Sheng Yunxuan singing something like "Mice Love Rice," and then shook her head repeatedly.

"It's not that bad. I'll look for other ones. I recently met some well-known music creators in the industry and I'm working with them to write songs."

Don't blame Qin Qianrong for being dismissive; these days, online singers are still looked down upon!
Many online songs have great melodies, but they sound cheesy and outdated. Famous examples include "Mice Love Rice" and "Wolf Loves Sheep".

You can't say these songs are bad, but some people just feel inexplicably awkward listening to them!
However, in the last two years, many famous online singers have emerged, leading to the rise of online music platforms.

Ten years from now, even the most talented singers will have to release their songs online first...

At this moment, Qin Qianrong continued:
"If all else fails, many songwriters have a lot of songs back in their hands, but they've been rejected just because they don't quite fit the style of those famous singers. The songs themselves aren't bad. I can go and pick some more; I should be able to find something suitable!"

Many famous singers are so famous that they receive many songs from music creators.

Many songs are rejected, not because of poor quality, but because of factors such as musical aesthetics and singing style.

After all, even when Jay Chou was invited by Hong Kong and Taiwan to write songs for Xie Tingfeng, Xie Tingfeng ultimately didn't take the offer, allowing Joey Yung to get the better deal...

Sheng Yunxuan, however, did not care about these things and simply told Qin Qianrong to search slowly.

He stroked his chin, his mind wandering somewhat.

You can also upload music videos to your own 6du.com website, or maybe you could organize a creative event.

Firstly, to gain traffic, and secondly, to help these online musicians.

I could also take the opportunity to find some famous singers from the future. Whether I ask them to write songs for me or open a management company to sign them and make money for myself, it would be a good choice...
