Chapter 121 He went to the piano

Shanghai Stock Exchange.

The nanny car stopped in front of a building.

Yu Xiao took back his laptop and said, "I know you have a lot of ideas in your head, but don't worry too much. After meeting Wu Sheng later, communicate with him and try to express your thoughts on the theme song of this movie. "

He Xiao nodded. Although it was the first time to meet this famous director, he really didn't feel nervous. Maybe it was because of different circles. One made movies and the other sang. The difference was a bit far.

So he was quite calm.

In fact, Wu Sheng had already hired a lot of professional musicians to help create the theme song. It is not that there are high-quality ones, but he is a Virgo.

As a result, the post-production of the film has basically been completed, and the publicity work is ready to go, only the theme song has not yet been finalized.

The theme song must be inserted into the film, and it is played at the climax of the plot, so it is very important.

It was also at this time that Yu Xiao took the opportunity to catch up with Wu Sheng and recommended He Xiao.

He Xiao is an original artist, and he is good at writing songs and arranging music, so Yu Xiao thought about asking him to give it a try. If he is really selected, he will enter in an alternative way theater.

After all, it is also a movie that competes for the hegemony of the Spring Festival. With the popularity brought by the movie, it is enough to make this song a big hit.

The elevator finally stopped on the 11th floor, and the two walked into a rather large recording studio. One of them was singing in the inner room, and three people sat on the sofa outside.

In the middle of the sofa was a man about 50 to [-] years old, wearing a black sweater, with a shiny bald head like a marinated egg.

This is Wu Sheng, a well-known domestic first-line director. He Xiao has seen his photo on the Internet. Compared with himself, there is not much difference.

The one who sang in the back room was a second-tier singer who made his debut two years earlier than He Xiao. He was very popular for a while and was a frequent visitor on the music charts. However, as the popularity faded, his popularity dropped a lot.

The remaining two, He Xiao, don't know each other. They are probably the producers or music producers of Wu Sheng's crew.

The joining of the two did not cause too much noise, they were all listening to the singing of the male singer in the back room.

"Director Wu!"

Yu Xiao lowered his voice to say hello, and at the same time stretched out his hands, walking quickly towards Wu Sheng.

"Ah."

Wu Sheng sat on the sofa motionless, stretched out his hand and shook Yu Xiao briefly, but did not get up to greet him.

If it were someone else, Yu Xiao would have lost face a long time ago. No matter what he is, he is also a prominent figure in the circle. Few people dare to belittle him like this, but if this person is Wu Sheng...he really can't get angry .

The status gap between the two is a little bit different. He is a famous domestic director and belongs to the small group of figures who stand at the top of the entertainment industry. There is no need to engage in such a thing with him as a manager.

"Director Wu, this is the He Xiao I mentioned to you. He has always been following the original style and is good at many kinds of music." Yu Xiao stepped aside and introduced He Xiao. Then Wu Sheng said hello.

"Sure enough, a hero is born in a young age. You can sign a contract with Le Jia at this age. The future is boundless." Wu Sheng pointed to the sofa and let them sit down, and said.

What he said was purely polite, and it was too perfunctory. It is estimated that eight out of ten people he said to others.

In fact, Wu Sheng had never heard of He Xiao's name before Yu Xiao came here.

Even the information was only checked on the Internet this morning. When he saw the words "The amateur who is the most amazing mentor of "The Voice of Dreams", "The miracle creator of the peak concert", "Won the most I only raised a little bit of interest when I received the Best Original Singer Award.

He roughly listened to all of He Xiao's songs. Although he doesn't understand music, he can still tell whether a song is good or not. Written by a single person.

If these songs were not operated by a behind-the-scenes team, and he really created them by himself, it would be a bit scary.

Wu Sheng believes that there are geniuses in this world, but he doesn't believe that he can meet them in this life, so he decided to see for himself what is going on with He Xiao.

This is how He Xiao was able to meet this famous director face to face today.

In the back room, the male singer finished singing, took off his headset and came out.

He was one of the few singers invited by Wu Sheng to sing, but the song he sang at that time did not win Wu Sheng's favor, so he failed to cooperate.

After returning, he was unwilling to let go of this opportunity, so he revised the arrangement again and found Wu Sheng again.

When He Xiao came in with Yu Xiao just now, he also saw it through the glass window, and immediately understood that this was his competitor coming, and his palms couldn't help sweating.

After walking out at this time, he greeted He Xiao perfunctorily, and sat at the other end of the sofa.

"What do you think of his song?"

Wu Sheng didn't comment first, but instead kicked the ball to He Xiao, he wanted to hear the opinions of this amateur who became famous all over the world overnight.

He Xiao looked at this posture and knew that Wu Sheng was testing himself. In addition, he and the male singer were originally in a competitive relationship, so he couldn't say polite words at this time. After pondering for a while, he said:
"I think Brother Nan's song is really good on the whole. It is already a high-level masterpiece in the industry. It will definitely sell well if it is released as a single, but...if it is used as an episode in this movie, it seems too much. There's tension, a little too much."

Brother Nan is the male singer, whose full name is Shao Henan, but it is said that this is a stage name, and his real name is no longer available.

Hearing these comments, Shao Henan couldn't help but frown.

He can be regarded as He Xiao's senior, not to mention the entertainment industry that pays attention to seniority, even in any industry, the seniors will feel uncomfortable when they hear newcomers denying their works.

With a sigh of relief, he said, "Then tell me, what kind of work is suitable for Director Wu's soundtrack?"

He Xiao noticed some small movements of Shao Henan, and knew that he was uncomfortable, but now the two sides are in a competitive relationship, and everyone wants to win the qualification to sing the theme song for Wu Sheng's movie, so they can't be afraid to speak just because the other party is a senior ?
"It's okay, you can say whatever you want, everyone is in the circle, exchange music opinions with each other, and you won't care."

Yu Xiao spoke at this time, seemingly comforting He Xiao, but actually speaking for Shao Henan.

In the music circle, Yu Xiao is quite prestigious, and Shao Henan is not an artist of Le Jia, so it doesn't matter if he offends because of the competition for this soundtrack qualification.

With the giant Le Jia backing He Xiao, Shao Henan had nowhere to vent his anger.

"The soundtrack of a movie must be determined based on the style of the movie. Although I only watched the trailer for Director Wu's movie, it can be based on the shooting techniques of Director Wu's previous works and the cool color filter used in the trailer. , I can probably also understand the meaning that Director Wu wants to express in the film."

"It's a kind of helplessness that can't be loved, and it's also a kind of free and easy after seeing each other for many years. There is no heart-piercing after falling in love, just plain and easy, so I say that songs that are too passionate are not suitable. The style of the film."

He Xiao had watched other Wu Sheng movies before, and combined with the trailer he saw just now, He Xiao probably guessed the general idea of ​​this story. There are many similar bloody movies in the black phone.

As soon as he said these words, the few people present were a little quiet. Wu Sheng looked at him in surprise. This comment really exhausted his heart.

Shao Henan squeezed his palms. He had been preparing for the theme song of this movie for a long time. Even after being rejected for the first time, he was unwilling to rewrite the lyrics and arrange the music and found Wu Sheng again, because he knew in his heart that the opportunity was won by himself. , never fall from the sky.

If you give up all hope after being rejected only once, you are doomed to fail.

So when he showed his song to Wu Sheng again, he added a lot of gorgeous skills in it to show his solid singing skills. It wasn't until he heard He Xiao's comment at this time that he suddenly realized that he seemed to have been ignoring the movie itself. tone.

But who is willing to admit this kind of thing?He is not a fool.

Glancing at He Xiao, who came with bare hands, Shao Henan narrowed his eyes, and said forcefully: "Anyone can talk on paper, but music must speak through the work after all. I changed the draft for this movie, and you? I'm afraid I didn't even prepare a demo, it's just lip service, but you're talking about your work?"

Shao Henan was unwilling to give up this opportunity. His biggest advantage now was that He Xiao met Wu Sheng for the first time, and he hadn't created even a single note for this movie, and he had actually produced the finished product.

Yu Xiao's face sank, this line was only connected yesterday, not to mention the haste, even just watched the trailer, how could he be inspired to create a demo so quickly?Shao Henan is deliberately making things difficult for He Xiao.

He looked at Wu Sheng. Wu Sheng is a sensible person. He knows what everyone is thinking, but the strange thing is that he didn't make a sound to make a rescue at this time. He seemed to want to see it too. The legendary amateur of original songs, how much real ability is there.

If he is really as talented as the report says, his on-the-spot performance will not be too bad.

He Xiao took everyone's reactions into his eyes one by one, and knew that if he didn't show some real skills today, he wouldn't be able to control the situation.

Say I don't have a demo?

Sorry, as a man who has mastered the wealth of a world, he doesn't need a demo at all.

He Xiao sat upright, swept his gaze across the recording studio, and finally fixed on a black piano that was rubbed off the floor by the wall, got up and walked over.

"..."
