Chapter 185: The theme song for the Journey to the West movie, competition from mainland counterparts.

"Have you heard? The movie 'Dying to Survive' next door filmed several scenes in just one morning."

"The actors over there hardly need to reshoot; most of them get it right in two or three takes!"

"Really? I'm so envious! Who's the director?"

"Don't you know him? He's the singer Wang Yueheng!"

"No way, he actually went to make movies?"

"Yes, I heard that the script was written specifically for a song."

"Wow, that's amazing! Making a movie for a song? That's so extravagant!"

Behind the big tree, two female extras squatted by the roadside chatting.

The sound of their conversation reached Zhou An, who was lying in a chair listening to music, through his headphones.

"Wang Yueheng is also filming in Hengdian?"

"To make a movie just for a song?"

Zhou An suddenly sat up.

His first reaction was to visit Wang Yueheng on set.

Take the opportunity to chat with the other party about your theme song.

Let's see if this young singer has any good ideas.

In return, I can also provide guidance to the other party during the filming of their new movie.

"Director Zhou!"

"My uncle wrote a new song for the movie and asked me to show it to you."

Just then, Luo Shoucheng, the actor who played the second male lead in "Journey to the West," walked over and said in Cantonese.

The other person was tall and slender, still wearing the white ancient costume robe from the play, looking refined and scholarly.

This young actor is also a well-known film star in Hong Kong, having worked with director Chow On on many films.

Actor Luo Shoucheng also has another identity: a professional singer.

His uncle, Law Tin-wah, is a well-known composer in Hong Kong.

He has written songs for a host of Hong Kong music industry heavyweights, including Jackie Chan, Zhou Xuejian, and Yeung Wah.

Born into a musical family, Luo Shoucheng also received professional music training from a young age.

She has sung theme songs or incidental music for many well-known Hong Kong films.

She even served as a backup singer for Lau Wah, one of Hong Kong's Four Heavenly Kings.

Luo Shoucheng is determined to win the role of singing the theme song for director Zhou An's new film, "The Legend of Journey to the West".

He even contacted his composer uncle early on to help compose the movie theme song.

She can sing the theme song directed by Zhou An.

This is also a significant achievement in his career in the music industry.

"Acheng, I heard that singer Wang Yueheng is also filming here. I plan to visit his film set."

Director Zhou An made no attempt to hide his thoughts.

"Why would you ask him to visit the set?" Luo Shoucheng asked, puzzled.

Director Chow, who is known as a tyrant on set, has never been interested in other people's scenes, so why would he suddenly go to visit the set?

“I’ve been listening to his songs lately and I’d like to ask him if he’d be interested in composing a theme song for our movie.”

Zhou An smiled and said, "Of course, the first thing to do is see if he can sing Cantonese songs."

"Find Wang Yueheng to write the theme song for 'The Legend of Journey to the West'..."

Upon hearing this, Luo Shoucheng felt a surge of crisis.

He had also heard of this singer.

It's said that the other party sang several new songs at some bubble party last night.

It even overshadowed Tencent's mid-year music festival.

If the other party gets the chance to sing the theme song, wouldn't all the hard work my uncle and I put in be for nothing...?

Even so, as a Hong Kong Island star.

Luo Shoucheng, who considers himself arrogant, has always harbored a certain prejudice against mainland artists.

Especially singers like Wang Yueheng who suddenly became popular.

In his view, they are all like Ren Yiwen, artificially promoted traffic stars who have no real talent.

They might be popular for a few years at most, but then they'll disappear from the entertainment industry as the next batch of popular idols emerges.

They are simply incomparable to those established singers in Hong Kong who have been popular for decades based on their talent.

"Director Zhou, I think since it's a Cantonese song, it would be best to find a local singer to perform it..."
