This star just wants to make more money
Chapter 193: Me again?
Chapter 193: Me again?
Looking for Xu Feng?
After the director put forward this brilliant idea, the conference room first exploded with excitement, and then fell silent.
Don't say it, really don't say it.
As expected of a director, he can come up with such bizarre ideas.
You asked Xu Feng to write the song, and after confirming that the song had been found, you then asked Xu Feng to sing it, right?
Do you really treat others as bricks and move them wherever they are needed?
However, after thinking about it carefully, everyone felt that this was indeed a good idea.
First of all, there is a high probability that Xu Feng himself can sing this song well.
Even if he can't, as the director just said, he and Lin Shenghuan have a very close relationship. In order to maintain his image in the entertainment industry that he can get things done if he gets paid, there is a high probability that he will invite Lin Shenghuan to complete the singing of this song.
Isn’t this a double happiness?
Perfect song, perfect singer.
"I suddenly realized that having Xu Feng as a last resort option is pretty good." An employee complained, "When we can't find the right person after searching all our connections, having a mercenary that we can hire directly with money is a good way out."
"Indeed..."
"So what do you say? Should we contact Xu Feng first?"
Chen Li said casually: "Let's talk to Wu Youqing first. Didn't she say that the singer of the song needs their approval?"
The person in charge also nodded: "Well, I remember that Xu Feng seems to have graduated from the same university as Wu Youqing, and he sang at the same party with her before. I think they should know each other, and she will not refuse."
After being reminded of this, everyone finally had some impression.
Yes, Xu Feng also graduated from Luohe University.
He is considered Wu Youqing's senior.
"But I heard that Xu Feng's previous major was in science and engineering, so he might not be that familiar with the art school?"
"Haha, then it's fate if you look at it this way. The song was written by students of that year and a mysterious gold medal composer, and sung by another graduate. Although we're from different colleges, we're in the same school, so it's a good story to tell."
"Given this relationship, Xu Feng should also take this order."
Chen Li was a little unhappy when he heard this: "What do you mean by there is such a relationship? Even if there is no such relationship, it is definitely not unfair to Xu Feng to sing this song."
Chen Li now regards "Big Fish" as his own treasure.
No one can look down on it.
Even Xu Feng, the industry leader, is the same!
"I've contacted you, waiting for a reply. Let's have some drinks and snacks first."
"it is good……"
"..."
On the other side, Wu Youqing's team had successfully completed the order and was planning to hold a celebration party tonight. However, after seeing the other party's reply, they were stunned for a moment.
To be honest, Wu Youqing sang this song very well, but there was a flaw in the whistle at the end. It was natural for the other party to ask for a change of singer.
Wu Youqing's reputation is not big enough to take over Xu Feng's original singer's position.
Regardless of whether the other party wants to change the lead singer or not, Wu Youqing plans to discuss this matter with Xu Feng after the contract is signed and the matter is completely settled.
Now it seems that the other party is obviously very, very satisfied with this song, so satisfied that he is willing to pay the money and place an order on the spot.
To be honest, Wu Youqing had thought about raising the price and making back the money he spent.
For this order and this resume, she even put in some money out of her own pocket.
But after thinking about it carefully, she gave up this idea.
First of all, her family is relatively wealthy. Secondly, raising the price arbitrarily will have a bad impact on her reputation.
Instead of asking for money, it is better to help Xu Feng do things better.
For example, getting absolute control over this song.
Now it seems that the other party has agreed...
But why is the singer designated by the other party Xu Feng?
We are back again after going around in circles, right?
The other members saw Wu Youqing's changing expression and asked worriedly, "What's wrong? Did they refuse to agree to our request?"
They also know the unspoken rules within the industry.
The other party's offer of several million was obviously not just about buying the right to use the song.
Wu Youqing's demands are basically no different from merely allowing the other party to have the right to use the song - it's just a symbolic share of the profits without decision-making power, representing that the song and the movie are bound together.
This request is actually more excessive than asking for more money.
It is normal for the other party not to agree so easily.
The small team is also prepared for the other party to disagree and continue to argue.
Wu Youqing looked at the other party's serious reply and shook his head: "It's not that they don't agree. They have designated a singer to sing this song."
"what?"
“Is the singer they designated reliable?”
"Senior Wu sang very well, but they are still not satisfied."
"We all sang it once, and the senior sang the best."
"Don't be so confident. There are always talented people in every generation. Didn't Xu Feng teach us a lesson before? He's a director who knows so many people. It's not surprising that he has channels to find good singers."
"Who are they looking for? No matter how good they are, they still have to pass our test!"
"Yes, we can't just agree to it just because they say it's okay."
Wu Youqing shook his head again: "I don't think anyone would object to this candidate."
"what?"
"so smart?!"
"How can a senior give such a high evaluation? Who is it?"
"Is it really that powerful that even Xu Feng would not disagree? Are you so sure, Senior?"
We can't invite Lin Shenghuan, right?
Wu Youqing raised his phone and showed the content to the team members: "They are looking for Xu Feng himself."
Xu Feng himself...
After these four words came out of Wu Youqing's red lips, everyone was stunned for a moment.
what? !
"Ah this..."
“Pfft, hahahahahaha!!!”
"Good fellow, they have also started to look for Senior Xu Feng whenever they have a disagreement, right? Where did they learn this bad habit?"
"I thought they really had access to some amazing singers who could sing the whistle perfectly, but it turns out they just chose to pay for it in the end."
"Alas, they have all fallen."
"Just tell me whether Xu Feng is a good choice or not. Don't worry about whether he got it with krypton gold or not. I just want to ask you whether this choice is good or not."
"Oh! Not necessarily. I'm not looking down on Xu Feng, nor am I slandering Xu Feng. It's just that this kind of whistle-like male voice is hard to sing, right? Even if Xu Feng were to sing it, I don't think he would be 100% better than the senior."
Wu Youqing glanced over calmly, then said, "Have you forgotten that Xu Feng and Lin Shenghuan have a very good relationship?"
There is no ambiguity in this sentence.
It simply means that Xu Feng and Lin Shenghuan have gone through many hardships together and have a good relationship.
For example, the first song Xu Feng handed over included an example of Lin Shenghuan.
This is enough to show that the two of them still have a good relationship until now - Lin Shenghuan can even sing a few lines for songs that have not yet been released on the market.
Of course, this sentence doesn't sound so simple to other people. "Oh, yes!"
"I almost forgot about Xu Feng's sister Huan. That's indeed no problem, haha."
"Indeed, if Xu Feng can't sing, then Sister Huan can sing it."
"Well, I think you guys underestimated Xu Feng a little bit. He has proved his ability countless times. Whenever others think Xu Feng is not good enough, he will definitely show you that he can do it."
"Yeah, what if Xu Feng can really sing this song?"
"Think about it, if he can sing 'A Song for No One', why can't he sing 'Big Fish'?"
"Makes sense!"
"Uh, that's not the point. Isn't the point about Senior Xu Feng and Sister Huan?"
"Shh!"
The last and most crucial booing interrupted everyone's discussion.
I almost forgot that senior Wu Youqing has been following Xu Feng's affairs recently and has not missed any performance or variety show.
It's like becoming someone else's white moonlight...
It was indeed a bit inappropriate to mention Xu Feng in front of her.
"So, what do you say? Promise them?"
Wu Youqing had a blank expression on his face: "The process still needs to be followed. Let's give a message to Senior Xu Feng first."
"okay!"
"..."
……
At the same time, Xu Feng was having lunch with Lin Shenghuan in a cafe.
When Xu Feng just debuted, the two of them also had coffee in this cafe once.
Sister Huan looked at Xu Feng taking out his phone to check the message, and was a little unhappy: "Why is there another message?"
I finally got the chance to grab Xu Feng and have dinner with him, but why is it that there is always this or that going on?
How abominable!
You're really going to be a big star, right?
Alas, when I was a mentor, I couldn’t stand those people who played dirty tricks, and I hoped that capable people like Xu Feng would be in the front line.
Now that Xu Feng is really on the front line, she is a little uncomfortable with it.
If you become a big star but are not financially independent, you will be extremely busy.
I'm so busy, how can I have time to have dinner with her?
"Do you remember the song I made for someone else before, the one that paid me a very high fee?" Xu Feng smiled and looked up and asked.
Lin Shenghuan was silent for a moment, feeling both angry and amused: "Look, what are you talking about? What do you mean by the song with the highest pay? How can you talk like that?!"
When someone talks about a song, how can it be described using such abstract attributes as how much it is paid?
At worst, can't you just tell me the song title?
Isn't it that the first thing that comes to your mind is not the song title, but the other party's offer? !
Could you please speak a little more human language?
Lin Shenghuan muttered in his heart, Xu Feng hasn't changed at all since his debut!
This level of blurting out is obvious and not fake.
Xu Feng is serious...
Ugh!
Xu Feng thought for a moment before nodding and saying, "Oh, it's the song called Big Fish. Sister Huan, you sang a few lines of it. Do you remember?"
This happened just a few days ago, I'm not suffering from Alzheimer's...
Moreover, it also gave handsome Xu a good opportunity to take a good look at his whistle skills!
Lin Shenghuan was a little proud: "I remember, what's wrong?"
"Well, after a lot of twists and turns, they finally invited me to sing this song." Xu Feng was a little speechless, "Really? I was given the song, but in the end I was stuck as the singer."
When Xu Feng saw the news about Wu Youqing just now, he was also at a loss.
What's going on? It's me again?
Found me again?
An animation film production team couldn't write a suitable theme song, so they asked him for help.
At the same time, the younger students who also accepted the commission were unable to write songs that met the requirements, so they asked him for help.
Finally the song was written, but they couldn’t find a singer, so they decided to let Xu Feng do it!
It seems that he takes care of all the work.
Of course, it’s not that Xu Feng doesn’t want to take over the whole thing. How could he be unwilling when others give him money?
Just thinking about it always feels a bit abstract.
What's even more abstract is that the director of the animation production team probably doesn't know that the song "Big Fish" was actually written by Xu Feng.
It’s hard to imagine how wonderful the expressions on their faces will be when the final contract is signed and the identities of all creators no longer need to be concealed.
At this time, Xu Feng added: "Fortunately, I am upright and I don't have the habit of using pseudonyms or aliases, otherwise they would have been deceived for who knows how long."
Lin Sheng imagined it for a while, and figured out the connection. He couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha...they also found you as the singer!"
"But speaking of vests, didn't you use one briefly before? You gave that crappy show crew a hard time."
"That's not called using a vest." Xu Feng said with a smile, "It's just a special case!"
"Then how do you plan to respond to your junior sister's invitation?" Lin Shenghuan's voice was deliberately distorted a little bit, "Show off?"
"It just so happens that Zhou Yanliu is bragging about how the mentor group won a great victory in this variety show. Why not take advantage of these few meetings to show them your true strength?"
To be honest, Lin Shenghuan had never heard the whistle sung by Xu Feng.
It's not even certain that he can sing the whistle.
But looking at Xu Feng's attitude, she felt that it was definitely not a problem.
So confident!
If you are so confident, you must have the confidence.
Besides, if it really doesn't work, Sister Huan can act as a backup, there won't be any problem, and there's no need to even charge any fees.
"This is a bit difficult. It depends on how much money the other party is willing to pay." Xu Feng did not agree immediately, "If they pay less, I can't sing."
Lin Shenghuan remained calm and said, "Okay, then it's up to you to show your skills... I see how anxious this animation production team is, they should be willing to spend a little money."
Otherwise, college students wouldn’t be asked to write songs and wouldn’t have to spend so much money.
Judging from the other party's request, this song is indeed too relevant to the theme of the movie. Putting yourself in Lin Shenghuan's shoes, you will definitely not be able to sit still in that position.
To create a good song, you need a good singer.
However, this was Xu Shuai's business. Since he had no problem, Lin Shenghuan would not say anything more. She returned her thoughts to the dining table: "Have you finished replying? If you have, continue eating!"
"..."
……
Wu Youqing received the reply and read it out: "Sure, but this is a different price."
When she read the last sentence, she smiled noticeably.
That's really his usual style.
As a result, many students in their class were influenced by this trend, and even many people outside the class had such prejudices against students of Luohe University.
The first thing I ask when I open the door is, can this little money get the job done?
"Okay, okay, you are worthy of being Senior Xu Feng! You really never forget your original intention."
"Let's make a bet. Do you think this song should be sung by Xu Feng or Lin Shenghuan?"
"I think it's Lin Shenghuan... It's hard for a male singer to sing this song."
"..."
