Chapter 210 Meeting Gao Xiaosong for the first time
"I'll give it a try. Write it down and I'll contact you..." Sun Tao said a few perfunctory words and hung up the phone.
In fact, Sun Tao didn't want to write at all. He is also a very realistic person.
First, he had never heard of the singer Li Qianqian, and he was afraid of ruining a good song. If the song was written for Faye Wong, Sun Tao would not hesitate at all; second, Sun Tao had no emotion or mood. To be more precise, he was a little depressed. .
The process of building self-confidence is slow, but it collapses in an instant.
Sun Tao, a reborn person, positions himself as the "sweeping monk" of the world, at least in terms of knowledge, no one can match him.
Sun Tao is also very confident in his ability to resist beauty. After all, he has watched short videos for ten more years than others. He has seen countless beauties and watched countless more movies than others, such as Tanaka Lemon and Sakurai Ayumi. No one has definitely seen it. Even Hatano Yui, known as the "Lin Chiling" of the island country, only debuted in 2008...
Sun Tao felt like a heroic man who had practiced in seclusion for countless years and already considered himself a master of the world.
As a result, during the first battle down the mountain, an unknown female general came face to face and knocked him down with one shot.
Sun Tao is so hateful!
If the one who seduced him yesterday was Liu Yifei, Yang Mi, Liu Shishi, or even the older Zeng Li, Sun Tao would be more accepting mentally. After all, losing to Lu Bu or Zhao Yun wouldn't be a shame.
After hanging up the phone, Sun Tao smoked a cigarette to relieve his anxiety, and then continued writing the novel.
——
Yanjing, a certain district (so famous that even if it is written in a novel, it will be inspected) Yuyuan Apartment in the Asian Games Village.
Don’t think it’s just a single apartment called an apartment. There are also many villas and office buildings here;
Some people think that housing prices have not started to skyrocket in 2002, and people have no awareness of real estate speculation. What a fallacy!
In any era, there are a group of people who are prophetic, perhaps due to luck or vision, but no matter what the reason is, it must be admitted that such people do exist, and there are many.
In 2003, the average price of Yuyuan apartments reached 7,000. Before the millennium, the average price here was 4,000 to 5,000. In fact, it has increased by more than 40%. You can make more money from real estate speculation than from stock speculation.
Of course, these are digressions.
In 2003, the headquarters of Maitian Music was located in an office building in Yuyuan Apartment.
……
Just as Li Jie hung up the phone, two people came over. He stood up hurriedly when he saw who was coming, "Director, Brother Liang."
The people who came over were Gao Xiaosong and Sha Baoliang. Since the establishment of Wheatfield Music, the music director has been Gao Xiaosong;
In 2003, Sha Baoliang had not officially joined Maitian Music. He signed a contract with Maitian in 2007, but he had many collaborations with Maitian before that.
The first female singer Gao Xiaosong signed for Maitian Music was Ye Bei, and Ye Bei's first album was composed by Sha Baoliang.
Gao Xiaosong asked eagerly, "How's it going? Well, who said that?"
Li Jie, "The singer-songwriter Sun Tao said he would give it a try."
Sha Baoliang frowned, "Try it! Damn it, what's the difference between that and research..."
Gao Xiaosong glanced at Li Jie when he heard this, "Is there anyone else?"
Relationships in the entertainment industry are complicated. There is a person who may not be your contracted artist, but she has a very close relationship with the company's pillar...
Gao Xiaosong was a little anxious and tapped his fingers on Li Jie's desktop unconsciously.
Wheatfield Music has signed contracts with many famous creative artists, such as Pu Shu, Lao Lang, Zhang Lu, Zhan Hua, etc., and has cooperative relationships with more artists. Li Zongsheng, Zhang Yadong and others have also written songs for Wheatfield singers, and there are many others in the industry. A famous Japanese and Korean singer-songwriter who is not well-known in mainland China.
Li Jie sneered and said, "Director, time is too tight. I am writing a song for the Spring Festival Gala again."
In fact, even if he didn't explain, Gao Xiaosong and Sha Baoliang would naturally understand that they are creators themselves. There are indeed many awesome people in this industry, and there are of course some who are fast and good, but not many are sincere.
Sha Baoliang pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you think he can't write it or doesn't take it seriously?"
Li Jie smacked his lips and pulled out a playlist from the folder on the desktop, "Sun Tao is from Jichun. He also has a small company. These days, he is taking singers to participate in the Spring Festival Gala rehearsal in Jichun. The same situation happened last week. A female singer asked for a song temporarily due to copyright issues, and it was said that he wrote it in less than half an hour.”
Gao Xiaosong took the song list frivolously, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. He didn't pay attention to a song that could only be sung on the platform of Jichun Satellite TV.
"Haha, good luck comes. The title of the song is so tacky. Hahaha. Fold a paper crane and tie a red ribbon. May kind people have good luck every day. Damn it, the lyrics are even tackier."
Gao Xiaosong continued to look down and hummed the rhythm gently.
……
Then, there is no more.
Sha Baoliang was still waiting to hear his continued evaluation.
Gao Xiaosong remained silent for a long time. Sha Baoliang came over strangely, "What's wrong? The song is too rough. I'm afraid the comments will dirty your mouth."
……
"Huh~~~ Take a look for yourself." Gao Xiaosong rubbed his cheek and handed the song list to Sha Baoliang with a solemn expression. Sha Baoliang took over the song list and was silent again. Li Jie suddenly interjected, "It's a pity that this kind of song is placed in the Jishi Spring Festival Gala. It's a hidden gem, but it's not empty at all if it's placed on CCTV!"
< br>
Sha Baoliang shook his head, "It's a pity that Qianqian is not suitable for this style, otherwise we can replace this song with a different song."
"It's not that easy. It's okay at other times. If you change it now, maybe the director over there has moved this song to prime time. Who is stupid!"
Sha Baoliang smiled and turned to look at Li Jie, "Hey, Xiaojie, what kind of character is this Sun Tao?"
To be honest, Li Jie and Sun Tao had only met once, and mostly talked on the phone. He didn't know Sun Tao's personality. Li Jie was still hesitating about his words. Gao Xiaosong said, "Okay, don't worry about his personality. I’ll go to Jichun to meet him and have a good chat.”
Li Jie was stunned for a moment, and Sha Baoliang said: "No need, let's make a phone call and talk first."
Gao Xiaosong played the song list and said, "Based on this, whether he can write the song in three days or not, it is worth meeting and chatting with me."
——
Sun Tao stayed in the room all afternoon. At 5:30 in the afternoon, Wen Jianjun knocked on the door and asked him to come down for dinner.
On the stairs, Wen Jianjun said, "Is there any news?"
Sun Tao, "What's the news? Oh, I don't know. It should be fine. He said it could be as fast as three days or as slow as a month. He will sign a contract with the investors as soon as the script is approved."
"Did he say the ratio of return on investment?"
"As I said, he kept talking to me until midnight last night. He talked about a three percent special tax and a five percent special film fund..."
Wen Jianjun, "Oh, 90% of that is ours, which is quite a lot."
Sun Tao looked at him, "Didn't you say you understand it quite well?"
Wen Jianjun, "I sang in model operas, and later worked as a projectionist for three years..."
Sun Tao nodded, "Okay, okay, okay, I didn't ask. Now that the market has become market-oriented, almost 60% has to go to the theaters."
Wen Jianjun, "Holy shit!"
Sun Tao continued: "About 40% of the total box office belongs to us, and then he also told me a lot of recommended sharing models, including fixed ones, staged ones, and profit-based ones..."
Wen Jianjun stopped and said, "Damn it, we were deceived by him. He said 2 million would have a box office of at least 4 million, right? But after this calculation, the minimum box office required is 5 million to get back the money!"
Sun Tao smacked his lips, "That's the truth. How about we quit? Should I find someone else?"
Wen Jianjun, "No, no, that's all I said..."
The girls were all there during dinner, and they all knew about the movie, so there was no point in hiding it.
Wen Jianjun asked everyone one by one to concentrate on the performance. Sun Tao also heard Lao Wen say that he was still revising the script and asked everyone not to disturb him.
——
Even though Lao Wen's instructions were of no use, Li Qinglei and Xu Yunyun still came to ask Sun Tao.
Sun Tao opened the door to receive them, and then spent the whole night in silence.
The next day, Tuesday, January 14, 2003.
Sun Tao went downstairs to have breakfast as usual, and then went to the TV station with everyone. Observing the operation process of the entire organization was also a kind of learning for Sun Tao.
The main building of Jichun TV Station is very large, and the girls are training. Sun Tao, Wen Jianjun, and Jiang Lin watched for a while and then went to hang out in the building.
At eleven o'clock in the morning, a group of people who had finished training gathered together and were discussing which restaurant to choose for lunch.
"Teacher Sun, Teacher Sun."
A TV station staff member ran over, and everyone looked at the visitor in surprise.
Sun Tao was really impressed by the visitor. It was this person who took him to see Tao Keqi that day. He forgot whether his name was Xiao Zhang or Xiao Li.
Sun Tao looked at him calmly, "What's wrong?"
Xiao Zhang leaned on his knees and said, "Teacher Sun, why don't you answer the phone?"
"Oh, I'm muted." Sun Tao smiled sarcastically, "I'm sorry."
"Teacher Gao Xiaosong has come to our TV station. He is waiting for you in Director Li Song's office. Go quickly."
Gao Xiaosong!
Everyone, including Wen Jianjun, was awe-inspiring, he was a real big shot in the industry.
Sun Tao didn't have a good impression of this birdman. He was short and tight. He was fooled into the Three Kingdoms Strategy Edition in the control room a few years before his rebirth. He couldn't get an orange card without recharging money. What a trap. ! Pooh!
