China Entertainment 1997

After the first round of Spring Festival Gala rehearsals, Cao Xuan finally let go of a small burden.

The Spring Festival is in February next year, and the second round of rehearsals is expected to be around December. Cao Xuan, who had some free time for the time being, started to work on the theme song of "Little Li Flying Knife".

The theme song and opening song of the original version of "Little Li Flying Knives" is the song of the same name "Little Li Flying Knives", sung by Hong Kong singer Luo Wen.

This song is a classic, but it is a Cantonese song. The producers of "Little Li's Flying Knife" are very ambitious and want to sell this drama to all three places, so they want to create another Mandarin song as the ending song.

At first, the crew's plan was to find newcomer Peter Ho to sing "What Would I Do Without You".

Later, Cao Xuan agreed to play the role of Jing Wuming. The crew saw that Cao Xuan, who was an excellent singer and songwriter, was here. Why did he look for Peter Ho, so they contacted Cao Xuan to write songs and sing them.

Because Cao Xuan is currently popular, the crew of "Little Li Fei Dao" simply came up with a Cantonese/Mandarin dual theme song to take care of Cao Xuan and Luo Wen's face.

Cao Xuan doesn't care about the false title of theme song, he just takes money to do things.

But after all, he is also known as a "creative genius" now, so he can't fool people with ordinary stuff. At least it has to be better than the original ending song sung by Peter Ho.

Cao Xuan searched through the theme songs and even interludes of later martial arts dramas and found several alternatives, but later gave up and instead came up with an ancient style song.

"Not Called a Hero"

This song was released in 2017. Once it was released online, it quickly became popular all over the Internet. It is known as one of the few songs that sings the world's chic and joyful songs, and has received rave reviews.

Cao Xuan has always had the idea of ​​releasing Chinese-style songs, but he is not sure whether this style can become popular today.

You must know that Chinese-style songs have actually existed for a long time, but the relative styles are not unified.

It wasn't until that man debuted, and with the popularity of Korean pop, he released songs with strong Chinese elements such as "Blue and White Porcelain" and "Chrysanthemum Terrace" that Chinese style was officially defined.

After that, a large number of related songs became popular in the music scene, and later gradually formed several categories, such as ancient style, Chinese style and national style.

Chinese style, the main feature is to highlight Chinese elements.

National style, characterized by traditional culture and classical atmosphere.

Ancient style means that the artistic conception is beautiful and has a certain story-telling quality.

The generalization may not be accurate, because these three styles are often mixed and used, and there are even some detailed divisions that cannot be explained clearly in a few words.

Cao Xuan personally has always liked these Chinese-style or ancient-style songs, and feels that this style is expected to inject some vitality into the current Chinese music scene.

"Not a Hero" was the song he used to travel.

If it becomes popular, Cao Xuan will increase the number of Chinese-style or ancient-style songs in the future.

Even if it is not popular, it can still cultivate and accumulate the first batch of fans of this style, laying a certain foundation for resisting the invasion of European and American Hallyu in the future.

After all, Cao Xuan is now a popular singer in the industry, so he can't rely on a little brother who has not yet debuted to handle everything.

While Cao Xuan can still copy, help share some of the pressure. When he can no longer copy, he will hand over the banner...

………

"Fold flowers to the south of the Yangtze River"

To the spring breeze and red wax

As passionate as I am, I love the world

May we meet again in this world

Fortunately, I have seven or eight close friends

Invite me to take pictures and get drunk with thousands of clouds of smoke

…”

At Baihua Recording Studio, Hu Jing, wearing headphones, looked at Cao Xuan singing inside the glass wall, her eyes turned into starry eyes.

Unlike Zeng Li, Hu Jing was a die-hard fan of Wang Fei. She did not have a favorite singer. Later, when Cao Xuan became a singer, she listened to Cao Xuan's songs.

But except for "Fairy Tale" in which she participated, Hu Jing did not express too much appreciation for Cao Xuan's other songs.

Until I came to the recording studio this time and heard Cao Xuan singing "Not a Hero", I fell in love immediately. I turned into a little fan girl and stayed in the recording studio to listen to the song.

"Does it sound good?"

"It sounds good, the music is good, the lyrics are good, and it has that heroic flavor. I won't get tired of listening to it a hundred times."

After Cao Xuan finished recording, he came out to drink water. Looking at Hu Jing who looked at him with admiration, he accepted all the compliments shamelessly.

"I can't give you the demo. If you want to listen to it later, I'll call you and sing it."

"Uh-huh."

Hu Jing nodded. She was much more well-behaved than her usual lively personality, like an obedient little squirrel. Cao Xuan couldn't help but rub her head.

I don't know why, but Hu Jing can always hit his cuteness sometimes, and he can't help but want to tease her.

"You're hungry, I'll take you to eat."

Cao Xuan checked the time and was about to end today's recording, while Hu Jing was a little worried.

"How about we go separately? Didn't you say that there are paparazzi following you every day?"

Hu Jing came in directly today. After all, there were not many people coming in and out of Baihua Recording Studio every day, and the paparazzi wouldn't just catch someone and take pictures. But if the two of them walked together, they couldn't hide it.

"It's okay, just come with me, there is a back door."

Baihua Recording Studio has been located in Beijing for so many years and has been recognized by celebrities in the industry. It is not only due to its professionalism, but also its ability to prevent paparazzi.

Internal staff are even more strict. After all, many new albums by singers are produced directly here. If confidentiality is not strictly maintained, this business will not be possible.

That's why Cao Xuan generously let Hu Jing come over. As long as he guarded against the paparazzi, he didn't have to worry about being betrayed.

After packing their things, the sound engineer locked the CD of songs recorded by Cao Xuan into the safe, and Cao Xuan led others out of the back door.

Zhu Jiang first explores the road. As a scout, he is very sensitive to the things around him. With Cao Xuan's experience, even if Zhuo Wei comes, he can only drink the wind.

No paparazzi was found at the back door. Zhu Jiang drove over to Cao Xuan's new nanny car and the two of them got in the car.

"What to eat?"

"Anything is fine."

"Let's have hot pot. It's cold and warm. I'll call Zhang Chong and Sister Jiang. You can call Zeng Li or other roommates. Let's have a fun time together."

Hu Jing didn't think about it and took out her mobile phone: "Lizi and Yuanquan should be in the dormitory, and Hailu doesn't seem to have left either."

"Yuanquan is back. Is her scene finished?"

"The filming is over, but I seem to have received another commercial. It's some kind of Wahaha mineral water. The salary was a full 30,000 yuan. We are so envious."

Hu Jing looked a little envious. Although she had decided to focus on studying during her college years, seeing her classmates become famous and make money all the way, it was inevitable that there would be some slight fluctuations.

"Wahaha mineral water?"

Cao Xuan looked a little weird: "Your dormitory and I are really destined. You took away the first time of the MV and advertisement."

"Did you accept this ad too?"

Hu Jing asked in surprise, Cao Xuan nodded: "They had contacted me before, but the offer was too low, so I didn't agree. Then in September, didn't I have a fierce PK with Ren Xianqi? My popularity soared, and the boss of Wahaha offered me a high price." I."

"How much?"

Hu Jing asked curiously, and Cao Xuan held out two fingers: "2 million a year, but the condition is that you cannot accept any other beverage endorsements, you can only drink this water in public, and you have priority to renew the contract."

Hu Jing couldn't even remember the rest of the story, her attention was focused on the 2 million yuan endorsement fee.

Hu Jingneng was sent to Beijing to learn dance since she was a child, and later she was admitted to the Chinese Opera. Her family did not worry about training fees and tuition fees. She was from a middle-class family, and her parents were both in business.

But even so, Hu Jing had never heard of her parents' annual profits exceeding seven figures.

Not to mention that Cao Xuan is just an endorsement, plus other endorsements, commercial performances, film remuneration, and album dividends, I am afraid that the annual income will reach tens of millions.

For the first time, Hu Jing intuitively realized how far this man who usually laughed and laughed with her had come...

The recommended book is "The End of the World: The Dawn Effect", written by Erzi Congzhou. Each book so far is a masterpiece. It tells the story of a little person who wakes up in the dark and searches for the dawn with his companions...
