Chapter 13 The First Pot of Gold

After leaving Nicholas's office, Jin Jingcheng rushed to Wilson's recording studio.

Wilson's recording studio is located not far from the Dishi Academy of Arts, and Jin Jingcheng took more than ten minutes to arrive.

When Kim Jong-sung arrived, Wilson was ready to record and even arranged the arrangement. This efficiency made Kim Jong-sung a little amazed. It seems that Wilson was particularly enthusiastic about the two songs, and also brought together several of his music producers. He completed the arrangement work in just over an hour.

Jin Jingcheng recorded directly.

In less than half an hour, Kim Jong-sung recorded both songs "If-I-Die-Young" and "Tonight-I-Wanna-Cry".

This result surprised Wilson. After all, this was the first time that Jin Jingcheng went to a professional recording studio to record songs, but there were only two minor mistakes during the entire recording process. You should know that even experienced veteran singers often had multiple flaws when recording songs in the recording studio, and it often took a lot of time to record a song.

Jin Jingcheng was not surprised by this. He was too familiar with these two songs, and he devoted himself to his deep emotions when he created them, so that these two songs now seem to be imprinted in his bones.

What surprised Wilson the most was Kim Jingcheng's singing.

"Maybe because I have been in this industry for a long time, I have met so many singers that I am now numb to the singing of many singers, and I rarely praise the singers. But now I have to say that your voice is a bit unique, and the singing you sing is even more touching, so moving that I can't describe it in words. I can only say that your singing penetrates my soul!"

After the recording was completed, Wilson couldn't help but exclaim at Jin Jingcheng, looking shocked.

Before, when Kim Jingsung played singing on a shabby Motorola phone in Wilson's office, Wilson only heard the extraordinary of two songs, and heard Kim Jingsung had the potential to be a singer, but he did not clearly and deeply understand Kim Jingsung's singing.

Now, the singing that Jin Jingcheng recorded in the recording studio not only has pure American English pronunciation, but also uses a unique hoarse and magnetic voice. The singing process is like a refreshing lyricism, full of deep feelings. Not only that, or because of being a human being for two lifetimes, Jin Jingcheng's singing also has a dreamlike vast feeling that other singers do not have.

Faced with Wilson's praise, Kim Jong-sung showed a happy smile calmly and did not deliberately restrain his joy. He enjoyed this joy very much, because his voice was not very good in his previous life, and he would often be disgusted when singing in KTV. He envied people who could sing and wanted to be a singer very much. Now, Wilson's praise is undoubtedly the best affirmation of him.

Due to his calm and determined personality, this joy would not make Jin Jingcheng too proud, but instead reminded him to work harder.

Jin Jingcheng looked at this very professional recording studio, looked at the many recording equipment he was unfamiliar with, as well as Wilson and several other music producers under Wilson, and recalled the extremely professional appearance of these music producers when recording the song just now. Jin Jingcheng reminded himself in his heart: "You must study music production well in the future."

Jin Jingcheng has a lofty and grand goal in this life, but becoming a singer is also one of his goals. He knows that he will definitely be a singer-songwriter, and it is unreliable to not understand music production, so he made up his mind to learn this.

Kim Jong-sung thought that it should be something he had after returning to Korea. He should have no time and experience in the past year. Fortunately, he has a good foundation in music, so I believe that it will not be too difficult to learn.

At this time, Jin Jingcheng thought of something and said to Wilson: "By the way, professor, don't upload my photos when you put my two songs online."

Wilson was a little surprised: "Why?"

Kim Jong-sung said: "I don't want to show up in public in the public media yet."

Kim Jingcheng's main goal is the Korean entertainment industry. He does not want to show up in the public media in the United States before returning to South Korea to develop. This is actually his strategy, because he knows the principle of leaving everything alone. From the moment he sees, this conservative strategy may suffer a little, but in the long run, Kim Jingcheng believes that it may be beneficial to him.

The main reason is his psychology. He doesn't want to reveal his identity yet, so he just does it, just do whatever he wants.

Jin Jingcheng added: "Don't use my real name, well, just use 'MrJin'."

Mr. Jin, this is the name that Jin Jingcheng temporarily proposed, but he likes it very much. Perhaps this kind of alternative name will help the spread of the two songs. Thinking about the ladyGaga, which will be born in a few years, is the best proof.

Wilson became more and more surprised. When he thought, young people nowadays racked their brains to show up when they spoke, but why did Jin Jingcheng do the opposite and play with mysticism?

Wilson did not ask, since this was what Jin Jingcheng meant, he couldn't refuse.

...

In the next half month, Kim Jong-sung locked himself in the dormitory and devoted himself to the creation of the script of "Brokeback Mountain", but he went out once during the process because Facebook was online!

Jin Jingcheng knew that Facebook's launch now seems to be nothing, it's just a newly built small website, but ten or even a few years later, this scene will be heavily recorded in history.

Even so, Kim Jingcheng only went to Cambridge, Massachusetts when Facebook went online because he knew that all he needed to do about Facebook was to get money quickly and ensure that Facebook's subsequent expansion and expansion, and other things, Mark, Tony and Jose would naturally solve them.

Half a month later, the script for "Brokeback Mountain" was completed.

Jin Jingcheng almost created this script based on his impressions in his previous life. Fortunately, he was very interested in movies in his previous life. He has watched and is familiar with many movies. "Brokeback Mountain" is one of them. Otherwise, his own abilities alone would not be enough to create a high-quality and profound film script like "Brokeback Mountain".

However, Jin Jingcheng modified the script based on some small flaws in "Brokeback Mountain" in his previous life. On the one hand, it was to make Lee An make a more perfect movie, and on the other hand, it was to ensure that the script he created could win Lee An's satisfaction. He really didn't want to waste this great opportunity because... Facebook is waiting for him to burn money.

This took only half a month, otherwise the creation would be completed within ten days.

Half a month later, Jin Jingcheng met with Li An in a cafe and handed the written script to Li An for review.

Li An looked at it very carefully. He started from noon and continued to see it in the evening before closing the printed script.

Li An stared at Jin Jingcheng in silence, looking a little unfathomable, which made Jin Jingcheng, who was originally confident, suddenly become a little surprised, thinking that such a script could not satisfy this future international director?

As a result, Li An sighed deeply after being silent for a while and said, "I really can't believe that such a script would be written by a young man like you."

Hearing this, Jin Jingcheng immediately put down a stone that had just risen in his heart.

Li An was still deeply admiring: "Your script not only exceeded my expectations for the adapted script of "Brokeback Mountain", but even exceeded my imagination."

Jin Jingcheng smiled and said with a solemn expression: "The only thing in this world that can withstand the destruction of time is talent!"

This is a sentence that Kim Jingcheng liked very much in his previous life, and it is also a famous saying by Lee An, who is now said by Kim Jingcheng.

Jin Jingcheng said again: "In addition, I think talent is sometimes not controlled by this guy in time." No one has ever said this sentence. It is Jin Jingcheng's own voice and something he wants to prove in this life.

Li An smiled elegantly, took a sip of coffee, and stared at Jin Jingcheng again: "I don't know if there is any chance to cooperate with you in the future, but I'm very willing to be friends with you."

Jin Jingcheng said: "Senior, are you sure you have become friends?"

Li An nodded: "In China, there is an idiom called "Eternal Friendship". I confirm that I want to be your "Eternal Friendship".

Jin Jingcheng immediately stood up, stretched out his arms, and smiled on his face, "Then I'm better obey my duty than respect. Well, this sentence should also come from China, right?"

Li An couldn't help laughing out loud. It was enough to show the joy in his heart if he was a person who respected the elegance of the law.

While smiling, Li An stood up and hugged Jin Jingcheng gently.

With this hug, a pair of friends who are forgotten for ages will be carried out.

When leaving the cafe, Jin Jingcheng's words came to his mind: "Everyone has a Brokeback Mountain in his heart, maybe it's a person or a thing. In short, you have poured all your feelings into trying to keep him, but you can't do it. In everyone's heart, there is a deep mountain called 'the past' that cannot be let go and cannot go back."

This passage is also a famous saying by Li An in his previous life, and is directed at "Brokeback Mountain".

The movie "Brokeback Mountain" seems to be about same-sex relationships, but in fact it is about love. The theme of this movie is about the enthusiasm, persistence, waiting, fulfillment and torture of love. However, because it talks about homosexual love, there are some shackles that ordinary love does not need to face, and these emotions are magnified countless times: pain is a pain that cuts the skin, but sweetness is also sweeter than honey.

We all have such love in our hearts, which contains all kinds of things: the scorching and brilliant heartbeat, the pain of not being able to love, the bitterness of having to give up, and the feeling of looking back at the past, forming the endless "Brokeback Mountain". It stands in our hearts and remains unmoved. At any time, you will instantly think of the love you once did!

Everyone has something you love, but you are afraid of losing it. So, please cherish the true love you have now!

For Jin Jingcheng now, what he loves is nothing else, his new life!

Because he has lost his former life, he is particularly eager to burn his life into brilliant glory!

...

A few days later, Li An called Jin Jingcheng.

Jin Jingcheng went to a studio in Li An in New York and received the royalties for the script "Brokeback Mountain".

The script of "Brokeback Mountain" won Li An's satisfaction, but Jin Jingcheng was not surprised, but the royalties paid by Li An this time surprised him a little, and more of them were surprises.

A full $500,000!

Li An was even sorry for this and said to Jin Jingcheng: "The movie "Brokeback Mountain" is not only too artistic, but also has topical debates. The investors will not invest too much money. The total investment is probably only more than 10 million US dollars, so I can only give you so much, but don't worry, if "Brokeback Mountain" has a good box office in the future, I will compensate you as much as possible."

After all this, what else can Jin Jingcheng say? He can only be grateful and respectful to Li An in his heart.

Not to mention the possible future compensation mentioned by Li An, the amount of 500,000 US dollars alone is equivalent to the royalties of famous Hollywood screenwriters and even some big-name screenwriters.

Five hundred thousand US dollars, this is the first pot of gold that Jin Jingcheng has earned since his rebirth.

However, Jin Jingcheng was still worried about money, very worried!

Facebook will indeed be a very domineering and super money-making machine in the future, but in the early stage, it is equivalent to a very domineering money-burning machine.

If Jin Jingcheng had not made any mistakes in the estimate, he would have to inject some funds into Facebook in half a year. This is not important. What is important is that a large amount of funds may be needed in a year.

"Money, it's really cute but sometimes troublesome!"

Jin Jingcheng, who was walking on the road, sighed in his heart.
Chapter completed!
