Chapter 124 Princess: What Did You and Zhou Xun Do? "Chinese Classics" Time Confirmed

"You are totally superfluous for tampering with my lyrics. You also want to see the stars connected in a line, one, two, three, four, do you think you are a greedy snake!"

The movie shines into reality, promise... Xu Chen frowned, Jay Chou's musical talent is unquestionable, this animal has come up with 3 songs in 11 days.

Xiao Zhou is meticulous and serious, and the music scores and lyrics are neatly transcribed. The 3 songs are Tears Know, Clear Sky, and Hundred Waltzes of Love.

"Tears Know" was originally written by Jay Chou for Andy Lau, and Andy Lau returned it to Landy Wen to sing it. Clear Sky and Hundred Waltzes of Love are both new songs that have not been released.

To be honest, "Starry Sky" and "Hundred Waltzes of Love" are both of above-average quality.

Unfortunately, Xu Chen was very disappointed that Jay Chou, the emperor of Chinese music, created these songs.

"Jay Chou, those who learn from others will live, and those who are like others will die. Tears Know R&B, the style is very groundbreaking, and the lyrics are slightly inferior..."

Xu Chen commented coldly.

The original composer of "Tears Know" is Jay Chou, and the lyrics are by Fang Wenshan. Without the help of his good friend, the music score of "Tears Know" written by Jay Chou is second-rate, and the lyrics are third-rate.

"The clear sky imitates the flying clouds, and the hundred kinds of waltz of love imitate you. It is a song in my heart. Jay Chou, do you want to be inferior to me for the rest of your life and be the second in the Chinese pop music scene forever?"

Xu Chen frowned. Jay Chou's imitation of him is a dead end. The emperor of Chinese pop music, you have to stand up!

Xu Chen was cold and ruthless, and criticized Jay Chou's works. The room was chilly.

Jay Chou scratched his head and was a little confused. Brother Chen is the king of Chinese pop music. Is it a problem for him to be inferior to him? There is absolutely no problem!

Jay Chou is very introverted and inferior. His goal is to achieve half of Brother Chen's achievements in the Chinese pop music scene. He would be very successful. He dare not even dream of surpassing Brother Chen.

Not only Jay Chou thought so, Li Bingbing, Li Xue and Zhang Tong stared at Jay Chou in surprise. They never thought that an ordinary, shy and introverted boy from Taiwan could get such a high evaluation from Brother Chen!

Xu Chen looked around and felt a headache. His subordinates were becoming more and more stupid.

"Brother Chen, I..."

Jay Chou scratched his head. His works did imitate Brother Chen's works, but newcomers in the music industry imitated big names in the music industry. The music industry has been like this for so many years.

"Jay, I am me, you are you, you have to create your own stuff."

Xu Chen PUA Jay Chou, gently patted Jay Chou's shoulder, stared into his eyes, and said seriously: "Jay, your musical talent is not inferior to mine. The reason why I signed you is that I value your potential to change Chinese pop music. Don't be afraid to surpass me. You have to believe in yourself. You were born to surpass everyone..."

"My first legend is called Legend, because I believe I was born a legend. Jay, I also give this sentence to you. You are born a legend. Your music style is the music style of the Chinese pop music scene. Don't imitate anyone. No one is worth imitating."

Little guy, I am like this, you still have to work hard and conscientiously, and dedicate your life to "Time Pictures"!

Xu Chen is the king of Chinese pop music, and Jay Chou is a young man from a small town in Taiwan. Brother Chen can treat Jay Chou like this, so will he be harsh on others?

Li Bingbing, Li Xue, and Zhang Tong subconsciously straightened their backs!

"Brother Chen..."

Brother Chen has been so kind to me. Apart from my mother, no one has ever believed in him, encouraged him, and supported him like this.

Jay Chou's throat choked, not a manly man, his eyes were wet, and he stubbornly held back his tears.

"Brother Chen, I will continue to work hard, and I will surpass your achievements!" Jay Chou's eyes were firm, he couldn't let his mother and Brother Chen down!

"Jay, you have ambition, I will help you change the lyrics of Tears of Love, and the company will recommend Clear Sky and Hundred Waltzes of Love to other singers."

In order to support Jay Chou, Xu Chen decided to grab all his works, and whip him hard with a whip. There is no point in drinking milk tea, six albums a year, and 26 concerts are scheduled!

"Brother Chen, I have a friend named Fang Wenshan in Baodao Company, he is very good at writing lyrics..."

Jay Chou knows his shortcomings, he is really not good at writing lyrics, Fang Wenshan is his good friend, brothers in distress.

"How good?" Xu Chen asked.

"Very..." Jay Chou stared at the lyrics that Xu Chen had modified, and his bold words just now disappeared in an instant. Brother Chen is invincible!

He said in a discouraged voice: "Brother Chen, his lyric writing level is only two or three points lower than yours!"

He tried to sing it, and the new version of "Tears Know" has the potential to be a "Chinese Golden Song".

"Jay, send a message to Fang Wenshan and ask him if he wants to come to Beiping. Also, your contract says that you will get 100 a month, and what will you do with 100? The minimum salary will be adjusted to 1500."

"Composing a new song will get a commission of 50, and the rest will be calculated separately. Is there any problem with Jay?"

Wu Zongxian, this old bastard, must have bleed a lot of money if he dug two corners at once. Last time, he only took Jay Chou away and used Jay Chou to pry Fang Wenshan away.

As for the salary, Xu Chen didn't care. For the three new songs created by Jay Chou, he got a personal commission of 150, and the company sold at least 60,000 per song.

Xu Chen touched his neck. He just couldn't bear to see his employees suffer.

"..." Jay Chou's eyes were sore, and the tears he had just held back were about to burst out again.

"Brother Chen, Sister Xiaoxue, the room is too hot, I'm going out to cool down for a while."

Jay Chou was very stubborn and self-respecting. He didn't want to cry in front of others, so he ran out with his body bent.

"Brother Chen, drink some ginger tea to warm yourself up." Li Bingbing was very satisfied with the current situation. The salary was good, there was little work, and Xu Chen was easy to serve.

"Sister Bingbing, please sit down. I can do it myself." Xu Chen is not used to being served. There are life assistants in the industry who warm the bed, but I don't know if it's true or not.

His fingers flipped through the sales of Hong Kong and Formosa albums. "Unparalleled in the World" has won the sales champion in Hong Kong for three consecutive weeks, and Formosa is behind Zhang Huimei.

The current situation in the music industry can be described in one word: "War clouds are gathering."

Xu Chen and Jacky Cheung competed for the first place in the Hong Kong double charts. They won the flag several times and changed hands. It was hard to separate.

The albums of the Four Heavenly Kings Li Min were launched, and they emerged suddenly. The radio charts in the Hong Kong music scene became a battlefield for the kings and queens. The middle-aged singers and new forces in the music scene could not show their heads at all.

After dealing with the album, Xu Chen looked at the "Spring Festival Gala" program. This time he had two opportunities for the Spring Festival Gala. The program was reported by himself and the Spring Festival Gala reviewed it.

"As Wish" is almost certain to be on the show, and the other song "Legend" involves the princess.

Xu Chen thought for a moment and asked the princess for her opinion: "Princess, I got my Spring Festival Gala invitation, what about yours? Let's go legendary?"

In the 1998 Spring Festival Gala, the princess and Naying sang "Meet in 1998". This song is very classic. Xu Chen is worried that the Spring Festival Gala program will not be approved. The success rate will be higher if two people apply together.

The stove was warm, and after a while, the phone buzzed: "Huh? How can I not receive it? What did you and Zhou Xun do???"

Xu Chen "The old man on the subway is looking at the phone", huh? My sister-in-law saw what happened between me and my brother-in-law, fortunately...

My sister-in-law also saw what happened between my sister-in-law and me! Sao Broken Waist~

"What, what did Zhou Xun and I do?" Xu Chen didn't want to explain. It was all Zhou Xun's actions. He couldn't go against the woman's wishes and would go to jail.

The phone buzzed soon. The princess was angry in the text message. Xu Chen didn't let go of the sisters-in-law, animals...

At least leave one for the Dou brothers!

"You will be given leniency if you confess, but you will be punished if you resist! Golden Melody Award, you have to give me a reason, otherwise you just wait to be beaten, I can't beat you to death!!!"

Zhou Xun called the princess in the middle of the night, and he was exposed. Xu Chen tapped on the keyboard: "Then... we won't be able to go to the Spring Festival Gala."

The wicker chair creaked, the cell phone buzzed, and the princess's text messages popped out one by one, with her teeth and claws bared, the last one: "I will go back to Peking on Saturday, Xu Chen, you are dead!"

4 days left.

The princess has been in Southeast Asia during this period, and the sales of her new album in Southeast Asia are better than those in the mainland, Hong Kong, and Taiwan.

The alarm light went off again and again. Xu Chen could tell from the arrogant text message that the princess was very upset, but what could he do.

It can't be said that the word "rejection" is not in his dictionary.

Xu Chen's method of dealing with it is very simple. Let nature take its course. If you can accept it, love it. If you can't accept it, say goodbye. When you are greedy for feelings, you are in a state of being chosen, so don't blame women for not choosing you. Who told you Humble and throw away the initiative.

No matter who leaves the world, it will not prevent the sun from rising from the east and setting in the west. Sometimes there is no need to care too much about a woman's joys and sorrows.

"Okay." Xu Chen thought about it. In ancient times, Lian Po "carried a thorn to ask for forgiveness". It would be okay for him to bring two small whips to ask for forgiveness on Saturday.

Xu Chen tapped the keyboard of his mobile phone to edit text messages. The phone buzzed and text messages kept coming in.

Li Bingbing and Li Xue looked at each other. Brother Chen was in a strange state, his brows were tightened, and his lips were pursed like a knife.

"Brother Chen, "Classics of China" needs the company's presence at the Beiping TV station for approval. Do we need to go?" Li Xue asked carefully.

The most important project under "Time Film" is "Classics of China". Li Xue vaguely heard that Beiping TV station does not like the program, and it is best for Brother Chen to go in person for program approval.

"Go, the TV station must have wanted to see me for a long time, and I have wanted to see them for a long time." Xu Chen put away the phone.

He wanted to send a text message to Zhou Xun, but gave up after thinking about it. It would be difficult to explain to Zhou Xun if he sent a text message at this time. If he tried to hook Zhou Xun, she would not be able to hold back and look for him.

Xu Chen frowned and had a headache. The princess, Zhou Xun, and Gao Yuanyuan were not traditional women who were "gentle, respectful, and modest". In fact, from the traditional sense, they were not good women.

But they loved and hated casually, and their free and willful nature gave them a different kind of charm.

Xu Chen flipped through the "Chinese Classics" file, and the ripples of emotion in his heart disappeared instantly. Making money was more important than getting women.

Damn it, now he was going to kill these old men!

"Brother Chen..." The crew member at the door held the filming schedule: "The set has been arranged and can be filmed at any time. Brother Chen, do you have any other requirements?"

The staff had been hanging around the crew for a long time, and some actors had messy requirements. They were afraid of getting dirty when shooting underwater scenes and insisted on mineral water.

Xu Chen was the biggest star in the crew, and he tried his best to meet any requirements.

The "photo" segment played by Xu Chen in "Love Spicy Hot Pot" was shot for more than ten days and is almost finished.

This outdoor scene was shot at the "Wangfujing Department Store", where tourists come and go and there are many petty thefts.

Xu Chen thought of the situation at the last "signing event" and said, "Xiao Luo, if there will be a crowd of people watching, please send a few staff members to maintain order, remind the audience to pay attention to safety, be vigilant against thieves, and don't make any trouble that will be reported in the newspaper."

It would be troublesome if it was reported in the newspaper. Xu Chen felt that he had to keep a low profile. There were many people in the circle who hated him.

Xu Chen thought for a while: "Xiao Luo, the shooting is over, and we have to clean up the garbage we created, so as not to discredit the crew. After the work is done, I will invite the whole crew to dinner in the evening, and count what to eat in the evening."

“Okay.” Xu Chen’s request was not excessive. It was the crew’s job. Xu Chen had rewarded the crew a lot during this time. His prestige in the crew was higher than Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang was stingy and strict. He was just a miser.

2:30 pm.

The filming started. The background of the movie was summer. It was very cold in November in Beijing. The extras invited by the crew were dressed in thin clothes.

Xu Chen’s costume was a white shirt and light blue jeans. He had only a few pairs. His limbs were numb from the cold. He had Li Bingbing to take care of him, but the extras were miserable.

His eyes were green from the cold. Xu Chen suspected that someone was stabbing him in the back.

“Sister Bingbing, go to the nearby coffee shop or tea shop to buy some hot water and cakes. It’s too cold. These extras can’t make much money. It’s immoral to keep delaying like this.”

Li Bingbing bought cakes and hot water to reward the extras, and the atmosphere in the crew became much better.

There are usually many reporters on the "Wangfujing Department Store" field trips, and this time they were lucky enough to run into Xu Chen filming.

The camera clicked and recorded the heartwarming behavior and high-quality filming process of the "Love Spicy Hotpot" crew, which was later published in the newspaper: "The Chinese pop king's first movie appeared in Wangfujing, and the audience said that Xu Chen was as handsome in person as in the photo, and his heartwarming behavior ignited the cold winter in Beijing."

…………

"Love Spicy Hotpot" was filmed closely and worked in full swing, and the "Classics of China" program crew was cheering.

The program director Tian Qinxin came from a well-educated family, graduated from the Chinese Academy of Drama, and studied in the UK. She claims to have high moral qualities and never scolds people like a crazy woman.

The beautiful drama director glared at Xu Chen the first time she saw him, and cursed: "What a shitty TV station, damn it, the eunuch sent by the emperor for post-production is just like the eunuch sent by the emperor, arrogant and bossy, damn, if he is not the director of this program, a good program will be edited into a mess."

"Xu Chen, no, I'm so angry that my breasts hurt, you have to talk to the TV station about this matter, if it continues, we won't broadcast this program on the TV station, I'll go back and tell my dad, let's go to other TV stations, damn, based on the quality of this program, CCTV can give it a try, why put up with this kind of shit."

Tian Qinxin's eyes were dark, the post-production cycle of the program was originally 30 days, but the TV station only gave 10 days.

The special effects and post-production work plans were all overturned, and Tian Qinxin was resentful because the program did not reach the perfect state in her mind after staying up all night.

"Sister Tian, ​​please calm down. We have to give the TV station a big surprise this time."

"Love Spicy Hotpot" has not been finished yet, and Xu Chen rushed over as soon as he got off the set.

He sat down in front of the computer, which is a professional device, different from ordinary civilian computers.

The first episode of "Chinese Classics" "Shangshu" took an hour and 45 minutes to shoot, but only one hour and fifteen minutes was left after the Beiping TV station cut it.

Xu Chen clicked the mouse on the player, and suddenly the ancient and rich "folk music" drum sounded like raindrops falling from the ancient sky, rumbling on the earth.

The bamboo slips were slowly spread out, and one after another, the Qin Dynasty's small seal characters jumped out. The black ink turned into small fishes, and in the tinkling music of the guqin, they formed large characters: "China in the Classics."

"Xu Chen, can I tear your mouth off?"

Tian Qinxin is not very old, just in her early 30s, single, and moved a stool to sit in front of the computer: "I have cut off many of my ideas. The current program effect is only 60% of what I expected. Lao Xu, we must take back the initiative in the next program, otherwise you can hire someone else as the director. I can't do such a cowardly thing."

"Sister Tian, ​​what about sharing the joys and sorrows?" Xu Chen stared at the computer screen. He had seen the CCTV version of "China in the Classics", which had exquisite special effects, dubbing, music, and actors, all of which were "movie-level".

The "Time Films" version of "China in the Classics" had a bit of crude special effects. The Hong Kong special effects company did not expect that time was so urgent. They could only maintain the big framework by rushing and rushing, and some small details could not be looked at directly.

The dubbing this time mobilized the folk music circle of Peking University. The piano, drum and flute were all recorded and produced by the "Folk Music Department" of the Central and Huaxia Conservatory of Music, and the quality is excellent.

Watching scene by scene, Xu Chen paused: "Director Tian, ​​although the first episode is only 60% of the expected target, it is barely enough. You have worked hard during this period. I have arranged a three-day trip to "Thailand" for the program team. You can take them out for a good time."

"... Old Xu, you are really good as a boss."

The program team complained a lot, Tian Qinxin sat on the volcano, Xu Chen was very angry, and Tian Qinxin held back her complaints.

Xu Chen's pressure is no less than hers. Tian Qinxin thought about it and touched Xu Chen with her shoulder: "Xu Chen, we will go to the TV station to review the program tomorrow. I think the TV station is deliberately making things difficult for us. Do you want me to talk to the old man and make arrangements?"

"Director Tian, ​​you can bring relatives with you on this trip. I will reimburse you when you come back. I'll leave the arrangements to you."

Tian Qinxin is the thickest thigh Xu Chen has ever seen!

The future president of the People's Art Academy, the martial arts leader of the drama circle.

"Dexing, Xu Chen, do you think the ratings of our program can be good? Do the audience like it?"

Tian Qinxin's first work in her life, she lost confidence before the battle.

She showed the program to the old man in private, and the old man gave it a high evaluation, saying that the program has the style of a great country, and the person who can plan this program is very excited.

“Definitely.” Xu Chen smiled and said, “It’s time to show it to the mainland TV stations. This is a small step for Time Films, but a big step for mainland TV programs.”
