The diva and I cross each other

Chapter 125 The last song of the album

"Lao Luo, how is that small company you are paying attention to?" Mr. Liu, Penguin's CEO, saw Mr. Luo coming up from below and stopped him to ask.

"It's done. They were pretty smart and accepted our financing."

"By the way, why do you pay so much attention to this small company? There's nothing special about them, right?"

"Old Liu, you are responsible for the construction of the ieg business group, so you should have a certain understanding of the game industry. Is there a single-player buyout game in China in so many years that can make waves abroad?"

Mr. Liu was stunned when he heard this. When Mr. Luo said this, he realized that it really didn't exist.

Let alone foreign countries, there are none that are making waves in China.

“With the development of smartphones in recent years, both us and Zhufang believe that mobile games will be the future development trend of the gaming industry.

However, the survival space of client games and buyout games will not die no matter how squeezed they are. Especially users of buyout games are completely different groups from users of client and mobile games.

In the past few years, there have actually been a lot of chaotic games in China. There are web games, client games, and mobile games that are out of the circle. However, there are almost none that are influential abroad, let alone the equivalent of a buyout in the barbaric era in China. Made a single player game.

A company like Burning Light can, in such an environment, produce a buyout stand-alone game that has received strong responses at home and abroad, is both well-received and has high sales. For this reason, they are worthy of my attention. "

"So that's it. After hearing what you said, I have become somewhat interested in this company. Being able to swim against the current in such an environment is really something. By the way, how many shares do you plan to acquire in them this time?"

"They should only sell about 15%."

"15%? A bit small, right? Since you are so interested in them and their company is not large, why not just acquire Riot Games and turn them into our wholly-owned subsidiary?"

“First of all, Zhuoguang is a domestic company, not a foreign one, so we can’t go too far.

Secondly, I am interested in them, but I am not sure if they are a flash in the pan. Their next game does not seem to be a buyout game, but an ordinary mobile game. What if I spend more than 10 billion to buy it back? For a company that has lost its creativity, even if you and Mr. Ma protect me, the shareholders will still find trouble for me.

The last and most critical point is that the company's focus now should be on the payment market. Games are very important, but they are far behind the payment market. I will not cause trouble to the company at this time. "

Mr. Liu smiled when he heard this: "You have considered everything comprehensively."

Luo Ming didn’t know that his Burning Light Games had escaped the fate of becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Penguin because of Penguin and Alibaba’s competition for the payment market.

Luo Ming is currently being interviewed on Weibo!

Weibo's official entertainment news writers are quite valuable, so Sister Shan specially asked "Lin Shuwen" to dress more formally for this interview.

The person sent by Weibo was a capable woman in her early 30s.

She has short hair, black-rimmed glasses, and a neat women's suit. She looks lean and lean.

"Ms. Lin, we meet again."

Before Luo Ming arrived, he had learned from Sister Shan that the name of the person who came to interview him was Yang Xue. People in the circle generally called her Sister Xue, but Luo Ming did not know that Lin Shuwen had actually met Yang Xue before.

But after all, Luo Ming has been with each other for so long, so he still has some adaptability. He immediately put on Lin Shuwen's signature smile and said: "Sister Xue, it's been a long time."

"It didn't take long! Counting the time, it's only been three months since the Golden Melody Awards ended."

"3 months isn't that long?"

"You're not going to be like three autumns without seeing each other for one day, are you?" Yang Xue asked with a hint of teasing.

"That's not the case. I really feel like I haven't seen Sister Xue for a long time."

"I feel like the last time we met was just like yesterday. A newcomer who debuted for more than half a year won the Golden Melody Award for Best Song and Best Newcomer. It was a dream start. There hasn't been a newcomer like you in the Chinese music industry for a long time.

I still clearly remember what you looked like when you won the award, Wenwen, do you know? The first impression you gave me was that you were a very real person, not artificial at all.

After you heard that you had won the award, you did not show how surprised you were at winning the award in front of the camera. You just stood up calmly and hugged your manager, and then walked to the podium confidently and calmly.

It’s hard to imagine that you had only debuted for more than half a year at that time, and your performance was more calm than the queen of the music industry. "

"Sister Xue, you are exaggerating. I'm a little embarrassed to hear it."

"I'm really not exaggerating. This was the first impression you gave me. This is why I went backstage to look for you. I wanted to see if you would bring any surprises to me.

Wenwen, do you still remember the first sentence you said when we first met? Yang Xue asked with a smile.

The smile on Luo Ming's face froze. He had never memorized this question before! How to answer this?

"Haha! I knew you had forgotten. After all, I look very ordinary. I don't have the fairy-like appearance that makes people forget you at the first sight.

What I asked at the time was, little girl, weren't you nervous just now? Your answer is, why are you nervous? When I gave a speech on behalf of the freshmen in my freshman year, there were many more people sitting in the audience than here.

Later I found out that you graduated from Jiaotong University and majored in Biology. I finally understood why you were so confident. Half of the audience were illiterate, and 90% of the remaining half’s grades were far behind yours. , why should top students be nervous in front of bad students? "

Luo Ming lowered his head and did not dare to answer. This woman spoke too directly and had no control over her words. Luo Ming was a little scared. Moreover, Lin Shuwen had never told him these things, so he did not dare to answer.

"What? Are you shy?"

"A little bit."

"I thought you were scared by me being so straightforward!"

Hearing this, Luo Ming subconsciously raised his head and glanced at Yang Xue.

"Hahaha! Wenwen, your eyes are full of "How do you know?" "These five words.

Do not worry! The previous words will not appear in my interview script, and I did not record anything. You don’t need to be so careful and speak freely. "

"Um, Sister Xue, has the interview begun?" Luo Ming asked in a daze.

"Yes!" Yang Xue admitted without hesitation.

"I thought we were chatting."

"I have always felt that only in this mode can people reveal their true feelings."

Luo Ming deeply agrees with Yang Xue's words. There is a point in Rawls's "A Theory of Justice" that it is easier for people to speak their minds when they are extremely relaxed or extremely nervous.

Yang Xue obviously wanted people to talk to her in an extremely relaxed situation, so she was not so careful when speaking, but it felt like she was deliberately exaggerating.

"Wenwen, do you know? I stole this opportunity to interview you from many colleagues." Yang Xue changed the subject and said.

"Am I so popular?"

"Of course, everyone says you are the most likely to win the Golden Melody Award for Best Female Singer next year." "Ah this."

"What? Don't you have confidence in yourself?"

Yang Xue's question was very pointed. If she answered with confidence, she would look down upon some seniors in the music industry. If she answered with no confidence, she would not be confident enough in her own work.

Luo Ming looked at Yang Xue, who was also looking at him with a half-smile, obviously waiting for his answer.

"Sister Xue, I would like to ask, is my answer related to the theme of the subsequent interview?"

"Yes, if you are not as proud as I think, I will also restrain myself."

"Then my answer is I have confidence."

"Can you bite the hook even with my simple provocation?"

"I just need an excuse for Sister Shan to ask. For example, I was led into a ditch by you."

"Hahaha! As expected, Wenwen, you are very interesting. Now that we have talked about the album, let's talk about music! This album of yours should be the reason for your confidence, right?"

"Yes."

"Now 10 of the 8 songs in your album have been announced, 5 of which are works by Teacher Huang, and the other 3 are lyrics and music composed by you yourself. The quality is very good. My personal favorite is "Snail".

"I want to climb up step by step." I really like this phrase. When I just graduated from college, I joined Mango TV. What I thought at the time was, I want to climb up step by step. I want to be the director of the station. !

After only two years of working, I was kicked out because I offended people with my outspoken words. Later, I started my own magazine, which had a good number of subscriptions, but the content was too direct and offended many people, so I couldn’t continue doing it. In the end, I just Able to cooperate with Weibo and become one of the writers of Weibo's official entertainment account.

Thinking about it, I failed quite a bit. I didn’t climb up and even fell down, but that doesn’t stop me from liking your song. I heard that you wrote this song when your career was at a low point? "

"That's right! The results of the TV series at that time were not very satisfactory. I filmed two movies in a row and didn't make any splash. If the OST of the TV series hadn't unexpectedly become popular, I would have just finished the postgraduate entrance examination at this time and was waiting for the results to come out." Luo Ming said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

"A blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise!"

"Well, it's really good if the east is not bright and the west is bright."

"By the way, Wenwen, how is the integrity of your album?" Yang Xue quickly changed the topic again.

"Because there were three people creating this album, there is no completeness to speak of. I only plan to carry out this promotion around the theme of dreams."

"Wow! Then Wenwen, you are very confident about your album!"

Yang Xue would say this because if the album does not have a complete story line, it means that the singles of this album must be so explosive that the integrity is not important, and the integrity will even constrain the entire album.

In comparison, albums with story lines are much better. Listeners only need to listen to the album in order from beginning to end to have a better experience.

After all, all the songs in an album serve the same theme and there are no irrelevant tracks, which makes it easier for the audience to recognize the album.

This model has very high requirements on the musician's textual ability and arrangement ability, and the quality of the single is not that important in comparison.

"I have confidence in myself, Teacher Huang, and the friends who help me create."

"Then Wenwen, can you tell me exclusively what the titles of the remaining two songs are?"

"Of course, the remaining two songs, one is called "Qingming Rain" and the other is called "Daoxiang"."

""The Qingming Rain"? Is the Qingming here the Qingming that I understand?"

"Yes, Du Mu's poem "Qingming" is the source of inspiration for this song. At the same time, the poem says "I asked where the restaurant is, the shepherd boy pointed to Xinghua Village." Xinghua Village is my hometown."

"So is this a song about missing home or a song about farewell?"

"It's natural to say goodbye during the Qingming Festival."

"Then I probably won't like it. I hate separation the most. Let's talk about the last song "Daoxiang"! What is this song about?"

"My album is called "Initial Dream". "Snail" is about trying your best to climb up to realize your dream, but the road to dreaming is very tiring. Sometimes you stop, listen to the insects, and smell Daoxiang is also good.”

"It sounds like a more inspirational and warm song! Wenwen, you mentioned before that this album was created by three people. The first 3 songs are the work of you and Teacher Huang respectively. So which one of these two songs is What about the third composer? Or both?"

""Daoxiang" is a song my friend Takiha helped me write."

"It seems like your friend is a very warm person!"

"Yes, there is a line in his song that I like very much: Success and fame are not the goal. Making yourself happy is the meaning.

He once told me that this song was written for frustrated people who went to big cities to work hard, to encourage them to cheer up and get out of the gloom. (Chou’s original words)”

"Hearing what you said, I can't wait to hear this song."

"Then Sister Xue must buy my album!"

"At this time, shouldn't you say that you will give me a copy when the album is released?"

"Then I'm afraid Sister Xue will have to come to my place again. I should be very busy then."

After the main topics were discussed, the subsequent interview focused on some of Lin Shuwen's recent plans and interesting daily life.

After all, at least half of the viewers who will watch the interview are true fans. Who true fans would like to listen to these things all the time? Wouldn’t it be nice to know about your idol’s daily life?

The interview lasted from 2pm to almost 5pm.

Luo Ming's mouth was dry as he spoke, Yang Xue talked too much.

Sister Shan only showed up after the interview and said she wanted to treat Yang Xue to a meal.

However, Yang Xue refused directly: "Sister Shan, I am full of literary thoughts now. I can't wait to write the manuscript. Let's have dinner next time!"

Sister Shan was a little hesitant when she heard this. She wanted to know what Yang Xue would write in the manuscript. This person's manuscripts were notoriously sharp.

"Sister Shan, it's okay, we had a pretty good chat." Luo Ming stepped forward and said.

　It has been 10 consecutive days of updating 300 words, and the content in the chapters is relatively compact. Seeing that the author has worked so hard, can you give me some monthly votes to encourage me? There are still more than 1000 left, and there are only tickets. There will be a chance to draw a lottery next month.
