Lin Ming and Chen Feng talked very happily. On the other hand, it was not so easy for the assistant Lin Ming brought to negotiate with Zhu Yong. After a torn and tug-of-war, the two sides finally used "Song of Mortals" as the theme song. The copyright fee is set at 200,000.
The price is quite high relative to Chen Feng's popularity. After all, he is actually a newcomer, with almost zero fame. A singer of this level can be sent for tens of thousands or even thousands of dollars.
But the crux of the problem is that the work "Mortal Songs" is too classic, and director Lin Ming and heroine Su Jinxiu also have a soft spot for this song. They came here this time and they wanted to win. The mentality of this song, so the negotiation has become much more passive.
Zhu Yonghe is different. After signing the copyright agency agreement for the song "Mortal Song" with Chen Feng, he not only praised the quality of "Mortal Song" to the extreme, he also used the music. The new starting point is a website to create momentum for their own negotiations.
"Song of Mortals" is now a work to be operated on the website, regardless of whether it is selected as the theme song of the TV series, it will be fully promoted. In this case, once the song is selected as the theme song, it will also be used for the TV series. With a lot of attention, this is what Zhu Yonghe relied on in his negotiations.
In the end, Lin Ming's assistant failed in front of Zhu Yonghe. Although he tried his best to keep the price down, the price still exceeded the original budget.
But none of this matters anymore, as long as Lin Ming is happy.
Looking at Lin Ming, who was talking and laughing with Chen Feng, the assistant finally sighed.
It was night after everything was discussed, Lin Ming took the initiative to invite Chen Feng, An Ruohua, Zhu Yong and a few others to dinner.
At the dinner table, everyone relaxed a lot.
At this time, Zhu Yonghe’s value was once again reflected, because Chen Feng and An Ruohua did not drink, and finally Zhu Yonghe was the only company. He drank a cup with Lin Ming and the grieving little assistant, and finally drank. His face was flushed and erratic...
On the other side, An Ruohua and Su Jinxiu continued to chat while drinking a drink. When two unfamiliar women met, they seemed to have endless words.
Chen Feng was eating silently. On this occasion, his sense of presence was automatically reduced tenfold, and he also liked the feeling of invisibility.
Sitting in the corner, Chen Feng glanced at An Ruohua, who was happily talking to Su Jinxiu, and then at Lin Ming, who was clinking glasses with Zhu Yonghe, and thought to himself: "It seems that I am helping Lin Ming do that. When scoring the other two episodes, I should use more dim sum. After all, I need to help An Ruohua earn more face with Lin Ming. In this way, An Ruohua will have a better chance of being selected during the audition. Lin Ming can also take care of her more in the crew."
……
In the next few days, Chen Feng and An Ruo spent most of their time in their homes. Chen Feng was busy helping Lin Ming with the other two episodes, while An Ruohua had been seriously preparing for the audition for the new drama.
It is not difficult for Chen Feng to make two good songs. However, these two songs must fit the story background of Lin Ming and the needs of emotional expression. This requires careful consideration.
"Long-term reunion and confusion...what kind of song is the right one?" Chen Feng put down the guitar in his hand and scratched his hair.
At this time, An Ruohua was also walking around in the living room.
"On the surface, I have completely given up on the one I love, but I am very unwilling in my heart. In the end, I have to force a smile in front of others... What kind of performance can I best express this emotion?"
An Ruohua muttered to herself, while running to the mirror, making all kinds of strange expressions and movements.
"Oh, it doesn't seem to look good...what should I do?" An Ruohua also scratched her hair.
At this time, Chen Feng happened to look over, An Ruohua immediately caught Chen Feng's gaze in the mirror, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
"Are you hungry?"
"Are you hungry?"
the two asked in unison.
Okay, both of you are hungry, so let’s go out to buy food and cook a delicious meal. As for songs and performances, wait until you are full, and then continue to think!
……
Today is An Ruohua’s audition day.
The location of the audition was set at the "Lin Ming Film and Television Studio" outside the North Fifth Ring Road. As a well-known TV drama director, Lin Ming established his own company very early. At the same time, he also maintained a relationship with major entertainment companies and TV stations. The close cooperation relationship can be said to be like a fish in the entertainment circle, no matter who it is, he will sell him a bit of thin noodles.
There are a lot of people who come to audition today. Although the male and female protagonists of this new drama have been fixed, for a large number of middle and lower-level actors, being an important supporting role in Lin Ming's TV drama is also a very good resource.
Chen Feng and An Ruo were late, because Chen Feng had just finished the two interlude soundtrack works. At the last moment before going out, he sent the audition files to Lin Ming's personal mailbox.
I hope Lin Ming will like it after hearing it.
……
However, Lin Ming was very unhappy at this time.
Because there were too many people coming to audition today, he started to conduct interviews with the main directors of the crew when he got up in the morning.
What’s worse is that many of the people who come to the audition have asked for a relationship, and it is not so easy to refuse.
"Even if you trust the relationship, but at least you have to be prepared? Do these idiots really think it's okay to come and walk? Who do you think Lin Ming is?"
Looking at the actors with poor acting skills in front of him, Lin Ming was madly complaining~EbookFREE.me~Being bored, Lin Ming picked up the phone and looked at it.
"Huh? New mail? Sender, dusty? Oh, it's Chen Feng, this is...new song?"
At last, there was a hint of surprise. Lin Ming ignored the clumsy actors and directly downloaded the music files, put on the headphones and started listening.
The actor who is performing in front is stupid, why did Director Lin suddenly put on his headphones? How can you hear my voice like this? The sound is also part of the performance!
The other persons in charge of interviews are also a bit miserable. What is Lin Dao doing?
Everyone is at a loss.
Finally, the young actor who was performing couldn't help but raise his hand to ask.
"Teachers...Director Lin...is he dissatisfied with my performance? Why does he want to...put on headphones?"
Lin Ming obviously did not hear the actor's questioning, he was still immersed in the music.
"I came to your city, and walked the way you came."
"Imagine how lonely you are without me?"
……
"Take the picture you gave, the familiar street."
"It's just gone, your picture, we won't be back that day."
"Well, this song is really good, it seems to be what I want, aha!" Lin Ming thought silently, and an expression of excitement began to appear on his face.
……
"This classmate, please don't mind. Director Lin puts on the headphones to evaluate your body language more purely. This is a way for Director Lin to observe the actors. Don't worry, please continue to act..."
The person sitting next to Lin Ming gave a reasonable explanation in a hurry. After speaking, he secretly wiped his sweat.
And Lin Ming didn't know anything about it!
