Thinker in the entertainment industry

Chapter 158 158. Invitation

"Unpretty Rapstar" is said to be a companion piece of "Show Me The Money", not just because they both record the wars of rappers.The producers who appeared on this show are basically familiar faces who appeared in "showmethemoney", such as sane who served as the host, verbaljint who produced the accompaniment for rappers for the competition, zico who later appeared as a judge, Park Jay Bum and Loco also passed by later.Zheng Zhiyong asked them how they felt, Park Jay Bum's answer did not exceed Zheng Zhiyong's expectations.

"It's nothing interesting, it's just a show," Jay Park said, "But the rapper who worked with us on the track is quite interesting, do you want to get to know him?"

"Why?" Zheng Zhiyong asked puzzled.

"It should be to your taste, that kind of cool girl." Jay Park said.

Zheng Zhiyong: "...I think you should remember that it's been four months since I broke up with you, brother."

Don't think how cool rappers are just looking at their images on TV, this group of people gossiping is not much better than the group of CP Lalang on the Internet.

Jay Park: "You haven't come out yet?"

"I don't know," Zheng Zhiyong said, "but I have no other plans yet."He can't say that his feelings for An Xiyan have completely disappeared, but Zheng Zhiyong has no idea how to deal with emotional matters.

Anyway, there are many things to do in career, and he has never been tempted in the past 23 years. Love is not a necessity for him, Zheng Zhiyong thinks so.

"Then let me put it another way," Park Jae-bum knows what Zheng Zhiyong is, "In order to try more music forms—should you know a few female rappers?"

It's a pity that Park Jay Fan is not very good at pulling out high-sounding reasons to achieve his goal. The final effect is like this. Fortunately, he made up for it in time: "The program team didn't really want to control her at the beginning, but she played too much in the elimination stage. Well, later on, I will gradually be praised."

This sounds about the same, kind of interesting.

"Let's talk, who is the one that makes me feel like 'wanting to recommend'?"

"Fiestar's yezi", Jay Park said, "The real person is much better than the appearance in the broadcasted program".

This is no nonsense, who doesn't know that the hip-hop show produced by m is edited by demons all day long, if he hadn't hooked up with cj in advance, he probably wouldn't be able to escape.

Slander is defamation. Under Jay Park's Amway, Zheng Zhiyong still has a little interest in this rapper who was born in the girl group Fiestar launched by Loen in 2012. The reason why the interest is weak is because Zheng Zhiyong Zhiyong prefers to see is believing before making a decision. The second is that the senior sister of this group - iu, a god-level figure among the [-] generations of female artists that Zheng Zhiyong met on "Infinite Challenge", contacted him and proposed A tempting proposition:

I will release a new album in late October, do you want to collaborate on a song?

For this reason, iu also went to Zheng Zhiyong's freshly released personal studio: "Shall we collaborate on a song? Any theme is fine."

"Anything is fine?" Zheng Zhiyong repeated.

iu changed his words: "Well... there should be something suitable for me in your works."

But I'm not wrong, Zheng Zhiyong's performance in the past two months has given people the impression that he is very sharp and powerful, but after careful study of his works, it can be found that the subjects written by Zheng Zhiyong are actually very complicated. May not see this.

"How long have I been back to work?" Zheng Zhiyong can only sigh for a while, "You are the first to sit on this sofa."

"Ah? My pleasure." IU said with a smile.

"Okay," Zheng Zhiyong said helplessly, "Can you introduce to me the other songs in your new album first? Let me have an idea."

Zheng Zhiyong was very surprised when iu came to the door just now, but after thinking about it carefully, this incident is not so surprising.If iu, who became a new generation of "National Sister" five years ago, was still an idol singer because of "Good Day" and the three-stage high-pitched voice, now this girl born in 1993 and debuted in 2008 is already popular and professional. Musicians, musicians always have to pursue the form and content of their works. Zheng Zhiyong, who never lacks special features in his works, is undoubtedly a good partner, let alone Zheng Zhiyong's "Infinite Challenge" Before, iu knew a lot about his works.

Zheng Zhiyong himself was a little moved.He has serious shortcomings when writing songs for groups. Zheng Zhiyong is very clear about this. To limit groups or small teams depends on luck. The situation of solo is a little bit more, but the singer's popularity, strength and whether he can communicate happily , these have to be considered separately. In every aspect, iu is a very suitable partner for cooperation.And iu found Zheng Zhiyong first by himself, and didn't let cj know, which made Zheng Zhiyong feel good.Because if the company knows about this, Zheng Zhiyong will not easily refuse even if they later find out that it is not suitable for cooperation. Businessmen are after profits, and it is difficult for them to give up cooperation with iu.

Thinking of this, Zheng Zhiyong decided to communicate briefly.

And his proposal was also within iu's expectation, "I brought them here, all of which are spare self-composed songs, and which one will be included in the end has not been fully decided yet." She handed a USB flash drive to Zheng Zhiyong, and smiled again. Added, "If you think there is anything in the song that can be improved, you can tell me at any time."

"I seem to have no way to refuse your proposal." Zheng Zhiyong said half-jokingly.Although there is still a lack of understanding of iu, and the feeling of "unreliable" still exists, but all of iu's actions are impeccable, and every move is in line with Zheng Zhiyong's intentions, and Zheng Zhiyong can't say no to his own Unclear premonitions keep people thousands of miles away.He now feels that the cooperation with iu is still worth looking forward to.

"Then change the name to something closer, thinker... brother?" Iu said calmly.

"I still call you iu. You must grasp the tone well, otherwise people will mistakenly think that I have fallen." The stage name "iu" can be interpreted as "I and you", and it also has the same tone as "ouch". Word homophony.

"Isn't wrestling usually 'ah--'?"

Zheng Zhiyong laughed.He moved the newly bought teapot on the table to his front and opened the lid: "What do you want to drink, lemonade or barley tea?"

"Lemonade", after iu finished speaking, he couldn't help but said, "Two months ago, I was still looking forward to a little longer time, and the public opinion would gradually calm down."

"If other things hadn't happened, the people who scolded me at that time would not have thought I was right later." Zheng Zhiyong took a few slices of dried lemons and put them in the pot, then went to the water dispenser to fill them up. Hot water, "There is no need to mention what happened at that time."

During the period when Zheng Zhiyong's reputation became very subtle because of the violent incident, iu, like many people he knew, chose to be wise and safe. What is special about her is that she did not hide this point in front of Zheng Zhiyong, but frankly admitted.Although Zheng Zhiyong felt a little uncomfortable, he couldn't make a mistake intellectually. This time iu came to talk about the cooperation, but he didn't mention the past. I didn't expect that iu would take the initiative to speak out.But this is really unnecessary for Zheng Zhiyong.

"Understood", IU closed her mouth graciously, and took out a disposable paper cup from Zheng Zhiyong's studio, "Do you have your own cup?"

The arrival of iu has added a new touch to Zheng Zhiyong's original loose schedule, and the distance from "busy" is still very far away.There are quite a few routes that this female solo singer can adapt to. Her vocal range is quite common, and musicians are relatively free in terms of themes. As long as the content of the song is not too exciting, iu can give it a try.

""Zeze"?" Before IU left, Zheng Zhiyong planned to go through the songs in the USB flash drive. Some songs' names, such as "redqueen", looked quite normal, while others looked a little strange." What's the meaning?"

"The name of the protagonist of a novel." Iu said.

"My Dear Sweet Orange Tree?"

"Have you seen it?" Iu smiled brightly.

"I read it when I was young," Zheng Zhiyong said, "I read a lot of things when I was young, such as prose and novels." I have also read "My Dear Sweet Orange Tree", but I didn't read it very seriously. This autobiographical fairy tale by José Mauro de Vasconceros did not resonate with Zheng Zhiyong. He has no interest in studying it over and over again, and now he only has a general impression.

"What happened later?" IU accurately captured Zheng Zhiyong's unfinished words.

"I didn't read it very much later. The wisdom of the predecessors can't comfort me every time." Zheng Zhiyong's world view was finalized earlier, and his own experience was also quite special. Later, the books can give him more and more things. limited.

"I thought of "Six Relatives Are Familiar with Filial Kindness", and I checked it online. Is this an old saying from China?"

"The works of Chinese Taoism." South Korea was deeply influenced by Han culture, but concentrated on Confucian culture, which is still well preserved, especially the dross of superiority and inferiority (...).Although the national flag uses a diagram of the Eight Diagrams, the spread of Taoism is not very wide, and the pile of words in the "Tao Te Ching" that "Tao can be said, is very Tao" is quite difficult for translators.

Zheng Zhiyong explained the source of this sentence to iu. When he said, "filial piety is only advocated when there is no family relationship between parents and children", the smile on iu's face became brighter: "the idea of ​​the ancestors There are also very enlightening places... When I saw Brother Thinker on "Infinite Challenge", I still wondered if PD really didn't worry that netizens would discover this song and riot?"

ah?Did you still have such mental activities at that time?

"But other things have happened, and no one has bothered to dig it for the time being." This song can be regarded as Zheng Zhiyong's representative song in the underground. Stimulating, so he has a good reputation among the group of people who cared about him in the early days, "Actually, PD asked about it, and I also explained it."

IU leaned forward, as if listening attentively.

"My parents are very good to me, and I love them very much. There is only so much I can do for them. Those parents who are not good to their children at all, how can they get so much by "filial piety"? "

iu (horrified face): "You really want to explain that?"

"Is it strange?"

"Not surprising", when Zheng Zhiyong asked back, IU's expression had returned to normal, "Well done, I dare not".

"Don't be like that—" IU said frankly, Zheng Zhiyong looked deliberate when holding it again, "Even if you are no longer a 'national sister', don't stimulate everyone's heart too much."The little girl who once sang three high-pitched notes with innocence and cleanliness on her face now tells everyone that she is not simple at all, how "ruining childhood" when she speaks out.

Iu just smiled at this: "I suggest listening to this one first." Her finger lightly tapped on Zheng Zhiyong's computer screen.

""twenty three"?"

"I wrote the lyrics, and tried to write a little piece of music, if I have inspiration—"

"Let me take a look."

Zheng Zhiyong opened the lyrics file first, and scanned the ten lines at a glance, "I suddenly want to listen to "leon" again." After a short silence, he said.

"Why do you say that?"

"Is "leon" really just a love story?" Or is there something else hidden in the ambiguous and peaceful atmosphere?After reading the lyrics of "23", this feeling became more and more intense in Zheng Zhiyong's heart.It's hard to say about the previous works, but just looking at "23", iu seems to be more interested in expressing some meaningful content with words that don't seem to be offensive.

"Guess which one it is, you can't tell just by looking at the expression, it's very simple to have a different heart.

Which one it is, to be honest, I don’t know, I think I didn’t even write a single lie. "

Iu who wrote such a self-report at the age of 23, is it a pure love theme in "leon"?

What is the source of the story "This Killer Is Not So Cold" about "Leon"?Should he take the time to watch this movie?
