Entertainment, I really only know a little

Chapter 160: Lao Zhang, does he really have this strength? ...(please subscribe)
Yes.

One song will do.

Why are you so confident about this song?

On the one hand, Lao Zhang is already very strong and at the top of the line.

On the other hand, it is also because of this song that it is the most famous song of Ren Xianqi in his previous life.

Speaking of Ren Xianqi, I really have to mention some of Ren Xianqi's career in the music industry.

1996 years in previous life.

Ren Xianqi is 30 years old this year and has been in the industry for 6 years.

But in these six years, Ren Xianqi was unknown.

And every year at the end of the year, Ren Xianqi's name will appear on the company's list of contracts to be terminated.

At this time, Ren Xianqi had been worried that he would be terminated.

Fortunately, the company did not terminate Ren Xianqi's contract.

If they terminate the contract, they will miss one of the last kings of the late 20th century.

On Christmas Eve in 1996, Ren Xianqi released an album called "Heart Is Too Soft".

Basically no one remembers the other songs in the entire album.But one of the songs, "Heart Is Too Soft", became popular all over the country.Across Asia, this album has sold 2600 million copies. Because the sales were so good, it was even hung on the gold record wall in Hollywood. On this wall, next to the album "Heart Is Too Soft" is Michael Jackson. album.

Once, Faye Wong came to Taiwan to promote. When asked what was the most popular right now, she gave the answer - "Heart Is Too Soft" by Ren Xianqi.In Sanlitun, 10 out of 9 video stores are playing this song "Heart Is Too Soft".

The sales of "Heart Is Too Soft" are gradually taking off, along with Ren Xianqi's life.

It also starts from this moment.

Because Ren Xianqi is really too hot.

Ren Xianqi also relied on his status in the music industry to appear in many martial arts dramas.

"The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "The Swordsman", "Xinchu Liuxiang"... and so on.

Sing and perform well.

This is quite normal in itself.

But with the popularity of martial arts dramas back then, it was really not for an ordinary singer to become the leading actor.

In the actor world, I don’t know how many popular niche actors are fighting for these martial arts dramas.

But in such a competitive environment.

Ren Xianqi has acted in many movies since his debut.

And there are many popular martial arts dramas.

I don’t know if anyone has watched these martial arts dramas.

Do you think that Ren Xianqi was chosen to star in these martial arts films because Ren Xianqi is handsome?

No.

In the previous life, a lot of people complained about the movie with the lowest rating, which was Ren Xianqi's The Legend of the Condor Heroes.

even.

In the previous life, many people looked up to Ren Xianqi's performance as the Condor, and felt a little bit irritated.

Let's imagine.

Ren Xianqi plays Yang Guo.

What kind of feeling is this?
It was so exciting.

of course.

This is not to say that Ren Xianqi is not handsome enough.

Ren Xianqi still looks good.

But his costume appearance is really more criticized than the action scenes shot by Chen Yi.

Or you think that Ren Xianqi has good acting skills.

What acting skills?

For Ren Xianqi, who was just a singer at the time, he didn't have much acting skills.

The reason is still the same as mentioned before.

Because after 1996 to around 2000.

The hottest one is Ren Xianqi.

Even the four heavenly kings have to avoid Ren Xianqi's sharp edge at this moment.

It wasn't until Jay Chou was born after 2000 that Ren Xianqi slowly moved behind the scenes.

and so.

having said so much.

Can you imagine how popular Ren Xianqi must be?

And these are the prerequisites for fire.

It's because Ren Xianqi sang this song "The Heart Is Too Soft" back then.

……

"Thank you, Teacher Qingya, thank you. I have been waiting for this song "Heart Is Too Soft" for 20 years."

"Teacher Zhang, you are too polite."

"Teacher Qingya, please call me Lao Zhang. In front of you, I am embarrassed to call me teacher."

"Haha, Lao Zhang, there's no need to say that. I'm a songwriter and you're a singer. The songwriter writes songs for the singer. This is mutual cooperation."

"No, no, no, Teacher Qingya, there are many singers, but songwriters like you are rare."

"Okay, let's not be polite to each other. I only have one song here. Whether you can become the king of singers or not depends on you."

"Teacher Qingya, don't worry. With this song, if I can't become the king of singers, then I will quit the music scene..."

This time, Lao Zhang said with great confidence.

"Ahem... Well, Lao Zhang, you have too few songs."

While Lao Zhang was extremely excited, on the other side, Ge Daming, who was following Chen Yi, interjected.

"One song is too few, but I have confidence."

Holding his fists, Lao Zhang replied again.

"It's not a matter of confidence, I mean, it's not easy to release a song."

"Then release a single."

"The single is not good either."

Ge Daming shook his head and said: "Singles are usually released online or in other ways, not albums. You also know that the most important thing for a singer is the sales of the album. Moreover, this is also the most important thing in the circle. way of recognition.”

"Then add a few old songs that I sang before?"

"That's certainly possible."

After just saying that, Ge Daming shook his head: "It's okay to add old songs and then "Soft Mind" written by Teacher Qingya, but the audience may think, Lao Zhang, are you short of money?"

"That's true."

Frowning, Lao Zhang said: "It would be best to add new songs, it's only for a while, and I haven't made an appointment with any composition teacher to write a few more new songs for me."

"Haha, Lao Zhang, you have forgotten that I composed a lot of songs for you back then."

"Yes, yes, Teacher Daming. Have you been inspired recently? No, haven't you been filming a martial arts drama recently?"

"Filming a drama is a drama, but occasionally I will write songs when I feel inspired. After all, having many skills is not a burden."

"Yes Yes Yes."

"Here are 9 new songs that have been created recently. Listen to them. If you feel like it, then they will be included in a new album with Teacher Qingya's "Heart Is Too Soft"."

With that said, Ge Daming turned to look at Chen Yi: "Teacher Qingya, do you agree?"

"of course can."

Chen Yi didn't have any objections.

Although Ge Daming's creative level is average.

But this album is not based on the songs he created.

Generally speaking.

A brand new album, most of the other songs are just foils.

The real core is that there are only two or three songs in an album.

Even, there is only one song.

and so.

It's okay to put "Heart Too Soft" and several songs composed by Ge Daming into the same album.

Just like the "Heart Is Too Soft" album by Ren Xianqi in his previous life.

Among the dozen or so songs in it, the only thing you can remember is Too Soft Heart.

As for the other songs.

Let alone other people.

It is estimated that Ren Xianqi himself does not remember it.

"Teacher Qingya said it's okay, so I have no objection. Teacher Daming, thank you. Your inspiration came at the right time. Otherwise, I would still be wondering where I could find such a suitable song."

Seeing Qingya nodding.

Lao Zhang didn't need to say anything and nodded in agreement.

Everyone knows.

Although Ge Daming's creative skills are average, he is now working with Teacher Qingya.

Say.

If you make a new album, it really doesn't have to be a classic.

As long as one of them becomes a hit, that's OK.

"That's great, Lao Zhang. Teacher Qingya and I also want to discuss the martial arts drama. I will send you the song I wrote later."

"Okay, thank you very much, Teacher Daming."

Send Chen Yi and Ge Daming all the way to the door.

When they walked a little further away, Chen Yi asked a little strangely: "Da Ming, what's going on? Are you writing songs recently?"

"Yes."

"Didn't you say that your dream is to make movies and TV series?"

"Yes."

"But since you're not busy with the new drama recently, do you still have time to write new songs?" "Writing songs doesn't take much time."

"Don't people say you have high output?"

"This, this..."

Ge Daming was a little embarrassed, and then whispered to Chen Yi: "Teacher Qingya, it's not like you don't know that you are poor recently."

"puff……"

Chen Yi was a little confused.

did not expect.

After much deliberation, I realized that these songs that Ge Daming forced on were just because of poverty.

But Chen Yi asked: "Teacher Daming, didn't I give you the dividends from the Condor Shooting? Where are you so poor?"

"Oh, Teacher Qingya, I'm not like you. Look at me, I'm old at the top, young at the bottom, and in the middle... I won't talk about this. Anyway, I wrote songs in the company for several years, but I didn't make any money. A few dollars. Just by following you, my life has become a little better. It’s just that I was afraid of being poor before. Now that I don’t have the opportunity, I just want to make more money.”

"You ah you..."

Chen Yi laughed dumbly: "Okay, okay, in the next martial arts drama, you won't have to worry about life in the future."

Chen Yi patted Ge Daming on the shoulder and said.

As for the last one, Shooting the Condors.

Although Chen Yi gave Ge Daming a fortune, Chen Yi mostly used the funds to build self-operated stores.

In addition, Shooting Condor is only updated on Swan.net, and it doesn’t make much money itself.

Ge Daming's side shared some, and the crew also shared some, including all the actors. They also gave a red envelope.

Add some tax.

There isn't much left.

But the next show.

That's different.

The cost is still 1000 million.

But the profit is 5 million.

Think about it this way.

Chen Yi felt that he was being stingy.

Do you want to invest more?
Are you being too stingy?
Forget it.

You have already decided, what else do you want to do?

It’s not like 1000 million won’t allow you to make a martial arts drama.

Didn’t I take good photos before?

this is the last time.

Ok.

this is the last time.

I won’t do this anymore.

Do it again.

Then I am a dog.

After chanting in his mouth, Chen Yi felt much better.

……

"Lao Zhang, how long has it been since you released a new album?"

"A little over a year."

"Haha, Lao Zhang, I remember, it should be nearly two years ago."

"Oh, it's been two years?"

"Have you forgotten the time?"

"I forgot some."

at this time.

Tianyu Media is also building momentum for Lao Zhang's new album "Heart Is Too Soft".

The new album hasn't been released yet.

Various media outlets have already taken turns interviewing Lao Zhang.

In fact.

The media are also very curious.

How come Lao Zhang, who is active in the front-line music scene, has not released an album for nearly two years?

After all, in the entertainment industry.

Even if he is a superstar, he has to release one or two albums every year to maintain his popularity.

Even if these albums don't sell well.

But I can prove to everyone that I am still singing.

There is still a place for me in the music world.

Previously, many people used the term "lying flat" to describe Lao Zhang.

What he said was that Lao Zhang hadn’t done anything in the past two years.

That is to say, they don’t care about new songs, they don’t participate in any programs, and they rarely appear in the media.

"Is there anything you can share with us about this new album?"

"There are many."

If it were some other issues, Lao Zhang didn't feel too much.

But when it comes to songs, Lao Zhang is talking eloquently at this time: "I haven't released an album for a while, and many times I haven't come across songs that interest me. In addition, there was indeed a period of time when I felt that after decades of singing in the music industry, why? It's still the same, at that time I really wanted to lie down. Haha, during that period, many people in the media made a lot of complaints."

"Hahaha."

The media reporters were also happy.

Lao Zhang continued: "It's just that God still takes care of me. When I had no idea and wanted to lie down, I met Teacher Qingya."

"Teacher Qingya, the teacher who took the shooting of the Condor Shooting?"

"It seems that now everyone only remembers that Mr. Qingya was in martial arts dramas. In fact, he was composing music before."

"I remember."

This is certainly not because media reporters don’t remember it.

Others don't remember.

How could these people in the entertainment media not remember?

He just said that deliberately for the interview effect.

When Lao Zhang mentioned it again, the reporter said: "The first time I heard the word Qingya was from a children's song."

"Yes."

"Later, he composed music for Jiang Xia and helped Jiang Xia win the title of Rising Star."

"Yes."

"But his style is a bit strange. Sometimes he writes some children's songs that children like to sing, and some are written for middle-aged and elderly people. Although the popularity of these songs is not bad, it seems that Teacher Qingya's style is different from yours. Some don’t match.”

"I felt the same way before."

Lao Zhang nodded: "Even when I met Teacher Qingya, I was still thinking that Teacher Qingya didn't want me to sing songs like Jiumei Jiumei."

"Hahaha……"

The reporter even laughed.

Thinking about Lao Zhang singing Jiu Mei, this is really shocking.

"Fortunately, it's not."

Lao Zhang continued: "He brought me a brand new song."

"What song?"

"The heart is too soft."

Talk about being too soft-hearted.

Lao Zhang couldn't help but want to hum a few words.

However, after all, the album has not been released yet, so Lao Zhang still endured it. He said: "Heart Is Too Soft is a song composed for me by Teacher Qingya. It is also the title of my latest album, and it is also the title song of this album. "

"Old Zhang, we are looking forward to what you said."

"Thank you, I'm looking forward to it too."

Chat here.

The reporter suddenly asked a very hot question: "By the way, Lao Zhang, many people say that you are one chance away from becoming the king of singers. I wonder if this album will give you such a chance?"

"The King of Singers is awarded by others. Either you say you are the King of Singers or you are the King of Singers."

Although he knew that the reporter had some hot topics, Zhang did not avoid this question: "But this is a brand new album. I think I am ready."

"No matter what, Lao Zhang, I support you."

Seeing Lao Zhang’s positive response.

This journalist friend was a little surprised, but also a little admired in his heart.

However, for such a hot topic, he instantly became the hottest topic in the circle.

……

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, Lao Zhang said that his new album will be the king."

"It seems he didn't say that. It was the entertainment media that deliberately caused trouble."

"Although he was deliberately causing trouble, Lao Zhang responded positively."

"I see, Lao Zhang did respond positively. Isn't this guy too arrogant?"

"Haha, I have been singing for more than 20 years and have always been at the top. And I was at the top as soon as I debuted. Do you have the ability?"

"I don't have the strength, but it's not easy to be crowned king."

"To be honest, Lao Zhang's songs are not bad, but why is he called Lao Zhang? Since he is old, he must accept his age."

"Being crowned king is really funny. Is it really so easy to be crowned the King of Songs? You know, there is a rigid standard for being crowned king, that is, a single album sells more than 500 million copies. Lao Zhang, is it really possible?"

Many people in the industry have moved their benches and are waiting for this big show.
