Low Key Star

  Chapter 161 [161] The troublesome sister

In the process of music production, capital is in an absolute dominant position, and the remuneration of lyricists and composers is generally not high. Wang Qingyuan was once a top lyricist in the industry, and the fee for a song started at 50,000 yuan, which has been regarded as breaking through the ceiling. exist.

This price is naturally not low, but compared with the income of songs, it is nothing. What's more, in the history of the Chinese music scene, the only person who can afford such a price for lyrics is Wang Qingyuan. The income is several thousand yuan.

The price of composing music is slightly more expensive than composing lyrics, but it is not too expensive. It mainly depends on the identity of the composer, such as Wang Chuxi, who can be regarded as one of the representative singers and composers in the Chinese music scene today. If you ask him to compose music, the price is natural Unusual.

  As for Zhang Yang, he is not as qualified as Wang Chuxi in terms of qualifications, but he is still more popular. In addition to providing a complete song score, the price is naturally different—not to mention that Liang Yanfu wants to invite Zhang Yang to sing.

   "The other party said let's look at it first, and if we are satisfied, we can talk about the price. But they said that the copyright is not for sale, only the right to use it, and they don't participate in the revenue sharing."

  Liang Yanfu nodded, and he was relieved to hear that they don't sell copyrights... Since they don't sell copyrights, the price must be cheaper.

   "How are you going to ask for the price?"

On Seagull's side, He Yanping was also talking about this with Zhang Yang, "I heard that at Liang Yan's Mansion, the funds seemed to be overrun during filming, and part of the post-production funds were diverted from the publicity budget. , if the asking price is high, they probably won’t be able to afford it.”

   "It can't be so miserable, right?"

Zhang Yang was a little surprised. The investment in TV dramas today is far less than the nine-figures in his previous life. However, the TV series "Huo Zongxia" has 32 episodes, and the production cost of a single episode is calculated at one million. With the publicity funds included, the investment scale must be three thousand Five million and up.

  A theme song, even counting the next recording and production, will not exceed a million. There are many pre-shoots, and a crew can get mixed up to this level?

  Zhang Yang didn't have any impression of Liang Yanfu, but after reading the script, he was quite optimistic about this drama. Hearing this news, he couldn't help but feel moved.

"I was also chatting with people two days ago. I heard people say that this drama is a project of Fengying. I was originally looking for director Zhao Liyan. A total of four companies invested a total of 50 million, and they were all ready to start filming. I don’t know why the negotiation didn’t work out, but a big investor withdrew their capital, leaving only 30 million yuan, so Fengying hired Liang Yan’s mansion.”

"It turned out that it was a director I had never heard of before, and another investor withdrew the capital. Liang Yanfu was going crazy for wanting to direct the play himself. He sold the pot and sold the iron, mortgaged the house, invested 8 million by himself, and finally got together 3,000. With an investment of 8 million yuan, the shooting will start."

"However, he was directing for the first time and had no experience. He only wanted to make the show well. When filming, he spent more money. He begged his grandpa to sue his grandma, and he raised another five million in investment. almost."

  The main business of Sea-Gull International is music. This is naturally not news from the company. He Yanping seems to have a very good friend who is a film producer. This may be from there or some dinners.

  Zhang Yang nodded and said with a smile, "Let's see what the marketing department has to say."

Zhou Fengyi and Liang Yanfu came to invite songs, this is not the business brought by Seagull, and at first they were all Zhang Yang's old works, counted as the studio's business, the company's commission is relatively low, but Zhang Yang doesn't know much about pricing, so he still invites the company The marketing department will give an initial price.

After leaving the company, it was nearly seven o'clock. Zhang Yang first sent a message to Lin Yiran. When he learned that she was having dinner at home, he found a shop by the side of the road and had dinner with Zhang Hongkang. On the way back, he called Fu Quanyi. a phone call.

  Fu Quanyi didn't save Zhang Yang's number. After connecting the phone, he said "Hello" calmly. I don't know if it was because he couldn't see anyone, and he was more focused on the voice, which sounded older than his impression.

   "Hi, Teacher Fu, I'm Zhang Yang."

  Fu Quanyi was probably very surprised, paused for a moment, and then said "Oh", without any greetings or politeness, but his tone was much gentler than the "Hello" just now: "What's the matter?"

   "Long time no see, let me call you to say hello, how are you doing?"

   "It's okay, I didn't get mad at your sister."

   Zhang Yang was taken aback for a moment, and asked with a guilty conscience: "...Is my sister in your class?"

  Fu Quanyi let out a "huh", and Zhang Yang said awkwardly: "What did she do wrong? You hit me as you should, and you scold me as you want, just like you did to me back then."

  Fu Quanyi said lightly: "Have I beaten and scolded you before?"

   "Of course not. I mean my sister has been naughty since she was a child. You need to educate her more."

Zhang Yang was just saying something polite, how could he have thought that Zhang Wei was in old man Fu's class again, and was being scolded for no reason, while thinking about how to settle accounts with Zhang Wei later, he carefully asked: "What did she do wrong? "

   "You go back and ask her yourself, I won't tell your parents."

  Fu Quanyi stopped talking halfway, and asked again: "What do you want from me?"

   "I've troubled you, I'll scold her later!"

  Zhang Yang said something like a brother, and then he thought about his words, and said, "It's like this, mine... I'm going to school and singing at the same time... I just released a new album..."

Zhang Yang was worried that old man Fu felt that he was not doing his job properly, so he was somewhat guilty, "I am shooting an MV now, and I want to go to our school to shoot, so I can do it on weekends, but I don't know if the school will let me shoot, I want to ask you, who is responsible This one."

  Fu Quanyi asked instead of answering: "When do you want to shoot?"

   "The sooner the better, because the album is out, so..."

  Fu Quanyi didn't wait for him to finish, and interrupted: "Okay, I'll ask tomorrow."

What this means is that he obviously doesn't know who is in charge of this matter, so he said to ask. Zhang Yang was originally prepared for old man Fu to say "I don't know", and it was a surprise to hear him say that. , grateful again, said: "Okay, then I will trouble you."

"fine."

  Fu Quanyi didn't talk much, "I'll call you back tomorrow."

   "Okay, thank you, Teacher Fu."

   Hanging up the phone, Zhang Yang still felt a little surprised, and sent a message to Lin Yiran. After talking about this matter, Lin Yiran replied quickly: "Teacher Fu is always a person with a cold face and a warm heart."

   Zhang Yang: "Why don't you say I'm likable?"

Lin still sent an emoji, which was cut from the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" that was broadcast just last year. Prime Minister Zhuge held a goose feather fan and pointed to Zhang Yang outside the screen, with a line of bold characters next to it: I have never seen such a brazen person !

   Zhang Yang wiped off his sweat: "When will you use emoticons?"

  Lin Yiran: "I saved it from someone else, let's have fun [达意]"

   Zhang Yang thinks that you are at the kindergarten level, the ones I treasured before are fun, if you see me, you will probably blush after seeing me for a week...

But those are all collected by hard work in the previous life, and we have to start all over again in this world, and there is 24-hour monitoring by Luoshen, so I am ashamed to save the emojis of Zhou Fan, the dormitory group, and the boys in the class , It is estimated that this scale will not be reached in this life.

  Thinking about it like this, I can't help feeling sad... It's better to be single.

Lin still couldn't come to see Haha, Zhang Yang returned home, Haha was lying on the sofa, looking at him lazily, reaching out to touch it, Haha, who was still lazy before, jumped to the floor, still not at ease , and swished to the top of the climbing frame, and then opened a pair of big amber eyes, looking at Zhang Yang vigilantly.

   Zhang Yang let out an annoyed "tss" and didn't bother to pay attention to it. He sat down on the sofa and sent a message to Zhang Wei: "What good things have you done at school?"

   After taking a shower, Zhang Wei replied: "???"

   Zhang Yang first chatted with Lin Yiran for a few words, and waited for her to read a book before replying to Zhang Wei: "Be honest and be lenient."

  Zhang Wei: "Frankly tell me your size, I study hard, improve every day, and do good things every day, the devil knows what you are talking about."

   Zhang Yang: "You still don't admit it? Fu Quanyi is my former head teacher, he just called me!"

  Zhang Wei: "So what?"

   Zhang Yang: "Hurry up, confess and be lenient!"

   After waiting for two minutes, Zhang Wei still didn't reply to the message, so Zhang Yang simply called her and it rang for a long time before being connected. Zhang Wei said impatiently, "What are you doing?"

   "You still have a temper, don't you?"

   Zhang Yang became a little annoyed when he heard her tone, "What are you doing at school?"

  Seeing that he was angry, Zhang Wei was a little timid, and his momentum weakened all of a sudden, angrily said: "What's the matter with you?"

   "What do you say has nothing to do with me?"

  Zhang Yang wished he could catch her and beat her up, the real kind, "Hurry up, what are you doing at school?"

   "Didn't you say that Teacher Fu called you? Why are you asking me?"

   "Let me try your attitude and see if I know I'm wrong."

   "I'm not wrong, why should I know my mistake?"

   "You still have reason, right? Believe it or not, I'll go back and clean you up in a few days."

"you dare?"

  Zhang Wei was a little stern, and said fiercely: "I'm not wrong, why do you scold me?"

  Seeing her refusing to admit it, Zhang Yang murmured a little. Could it be that old man Fu wronged her: "Then tell me, what's going on? If it wasn't your fault, how could I wrong you?"

  Zhang Wei was silent for a while, then muttered again: "Don't say it."

   "Didn't you say you were right? You dare not say it?"

   "Can't you ask the teacher?"

   Zhang Yang was a little depressed, so he simply ignored the matter and waited for the news of Fu Quanyi tomorrow. If he could go back, he would go back and ask again. If he could not go back, he would force him to ask again tomorrow night.

  Hung up the phone, Zhang Yang went to dictate "Sculpture of the Gods" first, and further perfected his martial arts series plan. Before he knew it, it was past ten o'clock, so he packed up and prepared to chat with Lin Yiran before going to bed.

  Picking up the phone, I realized that there was an unread message from Tang Yanqi:

   "Senior, don't blame Zhang Wei, it happened like this."

"There is a boy in Zhang Wei's class who always says that your singing skills are not good and the songs are not good. Didn't you release a new album before the National Day? When school starts on Monday, Zhang Wei is discussing with some classmates in the class. The boy said that the songs are not good. Zhang Wei just quarreled with him."

   Zhang Yang read it twice, feeling a little blocked, and replied to Tang Yanqi: "And then?"

  Tang Yanqi quickly replied: "Wei Wei scolded that boy to tears."

   Zhang Yang: "..."

  Tang Yanqi: "Then the boy sued the head teacher, and was scolded by the head teacher again."

Only then did Zhang Yang heave a sigh of relief, and secretly gave old man Fu thirty-two likes, thinking that the collector's edition of "Shooting the Condors" was still in stock, so he would send a copy to old man Fu later, but he didn't know how to explain it...then After the exposure, give him a set of Zhang Muzhi's collection.

Tang Yanqi: "Later, his mother came to the school to find Zhang Wei, and asked the school to deal with Zhang Wei. Fortunately, Zhang Wei's class teacher was more reasonable and protected Wei Wei. Later, even the dean came to persuade the boy's parents to leave. .”

   Zhang Yang looked at the content of the message she sent, and he was a little skeptical about life. He was in high school, and he was in a school like No. 2 Middle School, and there were such top students?

Tang Yanqi: "This morning in physical education class, that boy called you again, and Zhang Wei scolded him again. He sat on the floor and refused to go to class. It seems that his family has something to do with it. The physical education teacher had no choice but to call the head teacher. It should be Because of this, their homeroom teacher will call you."

  Tang Yanqi: "Wei Wei really can't be entirely blamed for this matter, don't tell your parents, or she will definitely be scolded."

   Zhang Yang: "Don't worry, I will definitely not tell my parents."

  Tang Yanqi: "Yes."

  After talking about Zhang Wei, Zhang Yang didn't know what to say to her for a while, and was a little embarrassed. Fortunately, Lin Yiran made a voice call at this time.

   Zhang Yang then switched on the voice, and while telling Lin Yiran what he just heard from Tang Yanqi, he thought about his words and replied to Tang Yanqi: "Thank you for telling me, otherwise she will really be wronged."

  Tang Yanqi: "Wei Wei and I are also good friends."

   Zhang Yang: "Haha, she is lucky to have a friend like you."

  Tang Yanqi: "Weiwei actually admires you very much, but in front of you, I'm sorry to say, when she was in junior high school, she often talked about you in school."

   Zhang Yang: "[Embarrassment]"

  Tang Yanqi: "It's getting late, the senior won't bother you, let's chat when we have time."

   Zhang Yang: "Okay."

While chatting with Lin Yiran, he sent a message to Tang Yanqi, somewhat out of order. After the message was sent out, he realized that it was not a good thing. His good intentions seemed to be really disturbing, so he quickly added: " You have class tomorrow, go to bed early."

  Tang Yanqi: "Well, the senior also goes to bed early."

   Zhang Yang: "Yes."

  Tang Yanqi: "[Good night]"

   Zhang Yang: "[Moon]"

After the chat was over, Zhang Yang was inexplicably relieved. Hearing Lin Yiran's soft and pleasant voice, he felt a little guilty, but fortunately, when it happened in the library, Tang Yanqi didn't even mention Zhang Wei. Still more impossible to know.

  Thinking of this made her feel more at ease, chatted with Lin Yiran for a while, washed up and went to sleep.

  The next day at noon, when Zhang Yang was having dinner with Lin Yiran, he received a call from Fu Quanyi, telling him that the school had agreed to his request to shoot the MV, and then gave him a phone number to contact him for specific matters.

Zhang Yang thanked Zhang Wei, and thanked Zhang Wei again for the matter. According to Tang Yanqi, that top-notch boy must have some connections with his family. Without Fu Quanyi's help, Zhang Wei might I really want to suffer some grievances.

   Recently, the rhythm is too chaotic, and I slowly started to find it. If it is not updated after twelve o'clock, it will be gone. I will remember the chapters that are owed and make up.
