Chapter 169 Movie Theme Song
Wang Siyi has been to Peking for several days, and because there are many rehearsals for the Poetry Conference and Art Performances, and rehearsals for such large-scale programs are usually very tiring, a rehearsal often lasts ten hours or more, or even ten hours.
I couldn't stop playing for two hours.
The video chat with Wang Siyi every night is the time Li Changle looks forward to the most in the day. Li Changle even made plans to go to Peking to see Wang Siyi several times.
After all, face to face, you can feel her breathing, hold her hand, and hold her, but with video, you can only see such a person on a small screen. You can't touch or feel her. I'm used to it every day.
Li Changle, who was tired of being with Wang Siyi, was naturally a little disappointed.
However, Wang Siyi has been quite busy during this period and is also very tired from rehearsals. Even if he goes there, he may not be able to see her. Even if he does see her, he still has to avoid suspicion. Li Changle sighed slightly. On the Nth day when Wang Siyi was not around,
Miss her.
But before he had time to disperse his thoughts, his cell phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number. Li Changle was a little confused. Not many people knew his phone number. His social circle was not wide. Except for his relatives and a few
Several friends and Wang Siyi's family knew about it.
I rarely fill in any registration information or leave my phone number online. It is unlikely that I would advertise. Li Changle does a good job of protecting personal privacy.
After hesitating for a while, he still answered the phone, only to hear the other person say: "Hello, Changle, this is Huang Wenchuan."
Huang Wenchuan?
When Li Changle heard this name, he felt it was very familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere. Then, relying on his extraordinary memory, he brainstormed for two seconds and finally remembered it.
They had met Huang Wenchuan before, the director of the movie "Our Love". Because the movie used red beans as the theme song, Li Changle came to Shanghai to meet Huang Wenchuan. It seemed like he had agreed to it at the beginning.
Huang Wenchuan said that if possible in the future, he could help him write a movie theme song.
"It turns out to be Director Huang, hello."
"The movie "Our Love" has done well, and the song "Hongdou" has a great contribution, which can be regarded as the achievement of this movie." Huang Wenchuan said with emotion.
"Our Love" is a movie that compares heart to heart in that the script is a little better than other movies of the same type. Fortunately, the actors' acting skills are also good. If it were not for Hongdou, it would not have such a high box office under normal circumstances.
Now the box office of this movie has broken the record of movies of the same type in one fell swoop, ranking first. Basically, it is difficult for any movie of the same type to shake this position in a short period of time.
"Director Huang's film is very good, and the songs can only be the icing on the cake." Li Changle said with a smile.
But Huang Wenchuan shook his head and said: "Hey, I have been studying the script of this movie for a long time. In fact, the emotional bonus is quite serious, and the content is not that new. It can even be said to be old-fashioned. The song "Hongdou" is definitely a contribution to the movie.
It’s a no-brainer, so don’t refuse anymore.”
The song "Hongdou" is considered to be a phenomenal song this year. It has a catchy melody and beautiful lyrics. I don't know how many young people use these lyrics of "Hongdou" as their own penguin signature.
Many people went to see the movie because of this song, or spread it by word of mouth after watching it. Relying on Hongdou's reputation, the number of viewers of the movie "Our Love" is also constantly increasing.
To a certain extent, it can be regarded as the mutual achievement of songs and movies, but relatively speaking, the bonus of songs is greater.
Li Changle and Huang Wenchuan exchanged pleasantries. They had only met once and were not very familiar with each other, so Li Changle asked straight to the point:
"Director Huang is too polite. I wonder what you want to see me for this time?"
A director with a box office of several billions called him specifically to thank him. However, Li Changle felt that Huang Wenchuan did not call him specifically to be polite to him, and it was unlikely that he came to exchange business compliments.
"There is something I want you to do for me. I am currently filming a movie. The progress is going well. I think I can make it in time for the Spring Festival, so I want to ask you to write a theme song."
Huang Wenchuan stopped being polite and went straight to Li Changle. After all, Li Changle had promised him last time that he could help him write another theme song if he had the chance.
Li Changle was shocked. The movie "Our Love" hasn't even been released yet, but this new movie has been put on the schedule. This is too high-yield, as high-yield as a sow's.
I don’t know what the theme of this movie is, but Huang Wenchuan’s style is quite varied. He has dabbled in martial arts, youth literary films, and action films, and has achieved good results.
Although he still didn't know what kind of movie Huang Wenchuan was filming this time, Li Changle pondered for a while and agreed first. Anyway, no matter what the theme, he could always find a suitable song with the help of the music library in his mind.
Anyway, he has nothing to do recently. He just makes time to video chat with Wang Siyi every day. It is not difficult for him to write a song. And if Wang Siyi can be included in a movie with a director of Huang Wenchuan's level, it must be a success.
It will help her popularity. If the movie becomes popular, her popularity will also increase a lot in a short period of time.
As for Xinyi Interactive Entertainment, the matter is simple. They keep the copyright and treat Wang Siyi as a producer to sing the song. At that time, they only need to pay Wang Siyi the cost of singing, and finally publish the song.
Just authorize it to Huang Wenchuan.
Speaking of which, Hongdou followed the same process, but originally the song was given directly to Wang Siyi, but an agreement was still signed, and the negotiation clearly stated that the copyright for the commercial performance belonged to Wang Siyi's agency.
The copyright for the movie theme song is still in the hands of Li Changle. This is the copyright that Wang Siyi specifically reserved after asking Chen Baozhu about it. After all, she doesn't have much favorable impressions of Xinyi Interactive Entertainment.
As for the movie theme song this time, after Li Changle heard Wang Siyi's impression of Xinyi, it was even more impossible for him to make more money. The copyright must be firmly in his hands. Anyway, if the copyright is
There is no difference between my own and Wang Siyi's.
What's more, if Wang Siyi wants to hold a concert, if the copyright is not in his own hands, he will have to pay copyright fees to Xinyi Interactive Entertainment. Who can explain this? There was nothing that could be done about the previous songs, but this time the copyright must not be
Give it to Xinyi Entertainment again.
If the copyright alone is not in the hands of Xinyi Interactive Entertainment, as Wang Siyi's agency, the profit he can get is just part of the fee he pays Wang Siyi to sing the theme song. As for the fee, it is estimated that it will be based on Wang Siyi's current first-line singer.
It's based on status.
"Of course there is no problem, Director Huang, but I still need to know the general story of the movie before I know what kind of songs to write."
Li Changle agreed without any hesitation, which made Huang Wenchuan feel happy. This young man is very capable, and judging from his confidence, it seems that this theme song should not be difficult for him.
"No problem, I will send you the script later so you can take a quick look at it. This matter is not so urgent. There is still some time before the Spring Festival. You just need to give it to me before December."
Li Changle agreed, and soon after the two hung up the phone, Huang Wenchuan sent him a document. After looking at the outline of the story, he was slightly stunned. This story seemed so familiar.
