Thinker in the entertainment industry

Chapter 214 214.winter

An Xiyan told him the result of the upcoming episode of "The King of Masked Singer", and also included her own feelings.The first round of song selection was conducive to her playing the bass advantage. In the end, she narrowly beat Jin Bi, the runner-up of the sixth season of "Superstark". The opponent in the second round, trot singer Cao Xingzu, also chose songs that were not too showy. The decisive factor It becomes whether the voice and singing are attractive enough to the audience. Compared with Cao Xingzu who debuted for 38 years, An Xiyan obviously has an advantage in this aspect. In the final votes, An Xiyan is twice as much as Cao Xingzu .

There is nothing to say in the third round. Michaelmatijevic, the lead singer of the American rock band steelheart, and An Xiyan are not in the same rank. No one can deny that An Xiyan's victory in the third round was a coincidence. Michaelmatijevic was on "The King of Masked Singer" He had to sing in Korean, which greatly limited his performance, and the audience did not expect him to come to Korea to participate in this program. It is understandable to vote for An Xiyan.But there must be some people who think that this is the result of someone giving An Xiyan the green light, and it is indeed the case.An Xiyan's performance is at her normal level, neither extraordinary nor mistakes, which can make people re-recognize her singing skills, but the excessive honor will still bring her a burden.

Zheng Zhiyong has always had doubts about this, and now in yedang, he finally couldn't hold back. "Why do we have to go to the third round? Maybe some people will focus on sex." Then An Xiyan's hard work on "The King of Masked Singer" under the pressure of her busy schedule will be useless.

Xu Solzhi answered this question, "The popularity of "The King of Masked Singer" is not as good as it was a year ago." The audience is indeed a little fatigued, "If you only go through the first two rounds, the impression may not be deep enough."

"A little risky."

"Always take some risks." Xu Suzhi said.

Zheng Zhiyong was silent for a moment, this is not something he only knows now.

"Michael will not object to this result." Xu Solzhi said again, "He lost to Hani. Everyone knows that he suffered the loss of only being able to sing in Korean. If he loses to Ha Hyun Woo senior, it may be taken as real. s failure".

If the difference in strength between the two sides is too large, various non-strength factors will be easily noticed.Losing to An Xiyan will not affect Michaelmatijevic's evaluation. Losing to Ha Hyun Woo is different. People are more likely to pay attention to "the result of the great god vs. the great god is that Ha Hyun Woo won" and ignore that he has to sing in Korean this matter.

"Yes." Zheng Zhiyong nodded without saying anything.

Now that the matter of the ranking has been revealed, Zheng Zhiyong straightened up his mood and began to talk about his thoughts.

"It's not the first time we've worked together. We know each other better. Hani's timbre is very distinctive. I like it very much. It's not like I can't write songs that can take advantage of her timbre—but I'm not confident about the result." , Zheng Zhiyong did not go around too much, "This is not the time of "you", our tolerance for failure has decreased."

He doesn't mind exposing some less important weaknesses: "When I think of the possible news that 'hani wants to go the singer's route, and the sound source of the thinker cooperation is cold', I feel very scared... "The King of Masked Singer" and solo Put together, the purpose is too strong."

"So you want the three of us to be active?" Ahn Hyo Jin said, "What is your plan?"

There is no problem with the candidates. The strength and presence of the exid team are polarized. It is obviously impossible for one person to have one song. The problem lies in the planning itself.

"Determine a theme, make it public in the form of yg'whoisnext', and release the sound source within a month," Zheng Zhiyong said succinctly, "The most critical part is not Hani, but Sister Solji."

"I?"

"One of my songs was selected as the ost of "signal", Zheng Zhiyong leaned forward and looked at Xu Solzhi, his eyes were like diamonds reflecting light, bright and hard, "I will recommend you" .

"I want to win it." Xu Suzhi said.

"Yes, so that the next plan can be implemented."

As music sources that rely more on national popularity gradually become the main income of singers, OST, especially the OST of popular TV dramas, has a more important position than ever. In 2015, "Infinite Challenge", "showmethemoney" and big stick were three pillars on the music source list, but the two OSTs of the TV series "The Girl Who Sees Smells" both squeezed into the top 1988 of the Melon annual list, "Birth of a Beauty" The OST "Gaze", "Reply [-]" OST "Girl", "Killmehealme" OST "Aural Hallucinations", and "Kamen" OST "Pain" also achieved outstanding results. ost is becoming an important resource and will become more and more precious.

"Signal" is a TV series produced by tvn, which has produced many excellent works in recent years. It mainly tells the story of two criminal policemen talking through time and space through a walkie-talkie to solve an unsolved case.This drama doesn't have a particularly popular ost yet, but the drama itself has achieved a double harvest in ratings and word of mouth, so it's still a good choice.And Zheng Zhiyong was able to include the OST of "Signal" in the plan, except that his submission has been confirmed to be accepted by "Signal", the very important reason is——

tvn is a TV station under cje;&m, director Kim Won-seok's contract is also signed with cje;&m.

This is the best explanation for "leaning on a big tree to enjoy the shade". As long as you show enough value, the resources you can use and the protection you can get will make many people envious.

"I will do my best," Xu Suzhi said.

Xu Suzhi, who won the title of "anti-superior rate", has rarely heard doubts about her singing skills, but she has not found a way in the field of OST. Even out of selfishness, Xu Suzhi still has to try hard, let alone A multiplicity of things.

"What about me?" An Xiaozhen asked.

"Single, the last song of the 'trilogy', since Hyo Jin-san is a rapper, I wonder if Hyo-jin-san has words available now."

"What kind of words are available", did not wait for Zheng Zhiyong to explain further, An Xiaozhen quickly understood that she had the least expectations and the most things to do, but she did not feel disgusted, the work had a chance to be released, There is also a certain publicity platform, which is not a bad thing, "Can the theme of the project be settled here? Do you have any ideas now?"

"I..." Compared with those steps on how to maximize the benefits, Zheng Zhiyong didn't spend so much thought on the topic itself, "Winter."

Zheng Zhiyong commented on Zheng Hengdon's rap in front of the camera, and gave relevant suggestions, and also recommended some songs and scenes that he thought were "reference value", and then retired after seeing enough material. The camera turns off the machine.

"Infinite Challenge" has a long-term plan. Zheng Zhiyong needs to give Zheng Zhiyong enough presence in the special episode of "showmethemoney" where Zheng Junha participates. The protagonist of hip-hop teaching is Zico. The ex-partner of Yiki who has been helping me during the audition preparation process."In this regard, Zheng Zhiyong can only say that Zheng Junha has really worked hard to prepare. Although his suggestions are the result of his best efforts, they have limited effects in the music genre of rap, which emphasizes personal color. Just look at the effect of the program.

"Is my brother and I the only ones in the preparation process?" Zheng Zhiyong, who was dry and tongue-tied, said that the recording group made him talk too much.

"No", Zheng Junhe didn't hear the little resentment in Zheng Zhiyong's words, "There are still people who will appear on the scene."

"what?"

Zheng Zhiyong originally thought he was someone from the hip-hop industry, but Zheng Junhe gave him a slightly unfamiliar name: "Liang Shiheng."

His eyebrows twitched, his hard work in supplementing knowledge about the entertainment industry finally paid off, and Zheng Zhiyong remembered who this person was: "Prepare with a lot of hands?"

Zheng Junhe smiled bitterly: "There is no way."

Kim Tae-ho didn't put all his hopes on getting Gill or Lu Hongzhe back. He was also looking for new candidates, but there were too few suitable candidates. The fact that Boom and Shinhwa member Andy got involved in the illegal gambling scandal is already very subtle.

Two drunk drivers left, and an illegal gambling man was recruited to fill the vacancy. Jin Tae-ho really couldn't find any candidates.

In this case, Zheng Zhiyong would not say it directly. "This episode aired on March [-]th, and the next step is to read the comments."

"If all goes well, the recording will be ready in April," Zheng Junhe said, "You really don't plan to go to the Zhuge special?"

The broadcast time of the congratulatory song special is arranged after Zheng Junha went to the "showmethemoney" episode. The hosts each find someone to sing the wedding congratulatory song together, and the recording will start soon.

"No, I don't feel anything about it, and I always appear in "Infinite Challenge", and everyone may be annoyed," he said with a smile, "Maybe they will still guess whether I'm going to join."

Although "Infinite Challenge" is an outdoor variety show, it doesn't have so much physical work.It's hard to ignore the shackles brought about by Zheng Zhiyong's physical condition, but some people can't stand it.

"Maybe, but what do you mean by 'no feeling'?" Zheng Junhe asked.

"I have never been in love and I don't plan to be in love now, marriage... let alone." Zheng Junhe is relatively old, Zheng Zhiyong thought about it, and did not express his true thoughts that "the essence of marriage is a contract" come out.

"If you had to choose between "Law of the Jungle" and "We Got Married", where would the thinker go?" said the camera uncle who had become familiar after dealing with them frequently.

"'We Got Married', acting skills." Zheng Zhiyong said without hesitation.

The phone vibrated at this moment, and Zheng Zhiyong opened it to check - it was yedang who updated the promotional image on the official website.

The winter landscape covered in silver, the brown curly "winter" is in the corner of the picture, without any text attached.

"Is there anything else to record?" he said.

"No more, what's next for you?" Jin Taihao asked.

"My friend's birthday party."

"Then you go first, and I will contact you by phone for the next thing." Zheng Zhiyong had already talked to him about the time issue before he came. Although the latest time for him to leave has not arrived, Jin Taihao also wants to talk about the recording of the next program. But Zheng Zhiyong said that he still has things to do later, and Jin Taeho still behaved very well.

"Then take my leave."

Zheng Zhiyong bowed a few times with a sincere expression, and retreated first.

"I don't think I've been so free recently," Zico said, "Why do I keep seeing you?"

Zheng Zhiyong spread his hands: "I don't know, where is our birthday star?"

"There is a concert today, and it's still on the way."

"If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't have left early." That is to say, he did everything he could do on "Infinite Challenge", and leaving early is nothing, "Who else will come?"

"I don't know who has time, Junying brother knows too many people."

Zheng Zhiyong nodded in sympathy.Zheng Junying's unrestrained yet upright and considerate personality is absolutely unfavorable in hooking up people. Hasn't he himself become a part of Zheng Junying's vast network?

Waiting for this kind of fact is a bit boring, Zheng Zhiyong and Zico quickly chatted about other things, for example, West Exit signed up for the fifth season of "showmethemoney", and Zheng Zhiyong will see him next time he records "Infinite Challenge" , Zico has recently been fighting with Crush and Dean, who are also 1992 musicians. He thinks that if he has the opportunity, he can form a 92-year-old producer alliance like vv:d.

"Then I will be left behind again", Zheng Zhiyong said, "What I want to do is completely different from what you have to do."

"what are you going to do?"

"You'll know right away, you won't wait too long." Zheng Zhiyong has given two songs to iu and Jun Jiyun respectively since the end of "showmethemoney". In the past few months, he really found a lot of things for himself.

People arrived one after another, Zheng Zhiyong saw Choi Jong-hoon from ftind, Lee Jong-hyun from blue, Fang Minya from girl'sday and other insiders, as well as some people that Zheng Junying knew when playing in underground bands, Zheng Zhiyong also saw Park Baoram, who was born in the second season of "Superstark", both of them greeted awkwardly and cautiously, but Zheng Junying, who ordered wine as soon as they sat down, laughed at him: "Aren't you from the same company?"

That's right, Park Baoram's contract is also in cje;&m.

"There are still people in the same company who are making snacks." After Zheng Zhiyong secretly changed the concept to a large group like CJ, he began to try to change the topic, "Is there anyone else coming?"

"Yes, your acquaintance," Zheng Junying said, "isn't he here?"

Zheng Zhiyong followed his line of sight and saw a person approaching. Although the other party was still wearing a hat and a black mask indoors, Zheng Zhiyong still recognized him at a glance.
