Chapter 60 Can the contestant's theme song work? (Seeking first order)
The crew of the movie "Rebirth to Middle Age", in the director's office.
"Reborn into middle age, with endless money..."
Bang! Xia Fei, the pot-bellied director sitting in the leather boss chair, slapped the teacup on the table and flew away, cursing at the female staff member.
"This song is so cool, it's sung like a cool guy!"
"After you collected the songs online, didn't you listen to them yourself? If not, just give them to me, right? What the hell are these crappy songs? These crappy songs will only bring down the value of the movie!"
When the filming of the movie "Rebirth into Middle Age" began, there was no rush to select the theme song, because many times the song had to be selected based on some of the movie's plots, and some parts of the movie's plots had to be changed at any time.
Unexpectedly, when we needed a theme song, we couldn't find a suitable song, because theme songs for comedy movies are very difficult to create, and no one was willing to take the job.
Xia Fei’s requirements are quite high, and the necessary condition is that the plot of the movie can be enhanced and made to be impressive.
“Shaolin Kung Fu is great!”
"I am Iron Head Kung Fu, you are Diamond Leg"
Although this song is not the theme song of Stephen Chow's comedy film "Shaolin Soccer", it can enhance the interest of the plot and leave a deep impression on people.
and "Invincible" from the comedy film "Mermaid."
"How lonely it is to be invincible"
"How empty is invincibility"
At that time, Stephen Chow was very worried about finding music for the movie. He couldn't find any songs that met the requirements. In the end, he had no choice but to write his autobiography based on songs.
The song "Invincible" uses only 80 words to condense his life of "How lonely it is to be invincible". Between the lines, it tells the loneliness that belongs only to the king.
As soon as the movie was released, the number of views exceeded 100 million. Almost everyone could sing it. Even the number of views in KTVs was huge. Many people regarded it as a song to liven up the atmosphere.
But it is very difficult to match such a magical song for a movie, otherwise the crew of "Rebirth into Middle Age" would not have collected theme songs from the entire Internet.
"I'm sorry Director Xia."
The female staff member bowed and apologized quickly, explaining: "We have screened the songs, and because we thought it was a comedy and this song was pretty funny, we gave it to you to listen to."
Xia Fei got even angrier after hearing this. He stood up and pointed at his nose and cursed, "Are comedies supposed to be paired with such stupid songs?"
"No, no."
The female staff member stepped back after being scolded. "There are two more songs. I'll play them for you."
Xia Fei suppressed his anger, nodded, and sat back in his boss's chair, "Okay, play it. If it's still a bad song, you can just quit!"
Five minutes later...
"Get out! Get out of here!"
"I'm sorry Director Xia!"
The female staff member bowed and apologized, tears welling up in her eyes. She walked out of the director's office, closed the door, and couldn't hold it in anymore, crying like a tearful pear blossom.
"Hua, hello, Brother Hua!"
"Okay, little girl, why are you crying?"
Dong Dehua came to talk to Xia Fei about the filming, and happened to see her coming out of the director's office crying, wiping her tears and greeting him.
"Nothing, nothing!"
The female staff member waved her hands quickly and said, "I made a mistake at work. You are busy, I will go to work."
How could I dare to tell others about my grievances? What if the superstar went in and told them about it, and the director knew about it, I would not be able to do this job anymore.
Dong Dehua looked at her hurriedly leaving back, walked up and knocked on the office door.
"Come in!"
The door was pushed open, and Xia Fei saw that the person who came was Dong Dehua. His expression changed immediately, and he went forward to welcome Dong Dehua to the sofa, "Brother Hua is here, come and sit down."
After we sat down, we were given another cup of tea. “Did your program recording in Tianjin go smoothly?”
“It went pretty smoothly, and a lot of the players were very good.”
Dong Dehua smiled and nodded. He saw the broken glass on the floor and couldn't help asking, "Did anything go wrong during the filming?"
Seeing that he had seen it, Xia Fei did not hide it anymore. He just wanted to tell him about it. After all, the music industry big brother has a wide network of contacts. "Hey, there is no problem with the filming."
"The problem is the theme song. It's so hard to decide on the theme song. I've approached many musicians but some couldn't do it or the songs they created didn't fit the mood of the movie. I was so worried!"
Dong Dehua nodded after listening to it. It is indeed difficult to match the theme song of a comedy movie.
It can be said that Xia Fei spent a lot of effort on this movie. It was thanks to this movie that he turned his life around. He asked humbly, "Brother Hua, you have a wide network of contacts. Do you know anyone with strong creative ability? Can you introduce them to me?"
Strong creative ability? I don’t know why, but when these words came out, and I don’t know if it was because we just finished recording yesterday, the first person that popped into Dong Dehua’s mind was Lin Zhixing.
All the songs from the first to the fifth episode were composed by him. During this period, he also composed a song for others. He has the ability to accurately position the market, and the types of his songs are also varied, which makes people amazed every time.
Dong Dehua pursed his lips, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What style of song do you want?"
Xia Fei rubbed his bald forehead, organized his words, and said, "It should be in line with the style of our movie and more down-to-earth! It would be best if it was a little interesting."
Down to earth? Recently, I have heard many songs that are very down to earth and are very popular among the people. Some even say they are extremely popular.
Lin Zhixing's appearance popped up in Dong Dehua's mind again.
A bit interesting? The last time I heard a song that was interesting was...
"My wife!"
“Ahaha!”
That impressive stage costume and the beginning of the song, it’s still him on the stage.
It's weird, his image is all in my head, and I can't even think of other people. Who can make a song that is both down-to-earth and interesting...
How about letting this guy try? That's how it is when it comes to helping people. I found someone for you out of favor, but if he's not suitable, you can't blame yourself.
Dong Dehua was silent for a moment, then nodded. "I have a candidate here. You can try to let him create it, but I can't guarantee whether it will succeed."
Seeing that the king wanted to recommend someone to him, Xia Fei's worried expression disappeared and he immediately smiled. "Okay, which famous creator is it? I'll have someone contact him right away."
Dong Dehua shook his head and said, "As for him, he can be considered a creator. He is famous because his songs are relatively famous, but his creative ability has not been recognized by the industry, so he is not considered a famous creator."
"To be exact, he was a contestant in the show I participated in."
"Contestant?"
Xia Fei asked doubtfully.
Although there was no change in his expression, he was very dissatisfied in his heart.
I am still in the process of climbing, can the contestants’ songs do the job?
