Chapter 524 Talking about music and movies

Danjiang Middle School.

Jay Chou’s alma mater.

Jay Chou seems to have a deep affection for his student days. Not only did he sing "Class 2 in the third year" in his songs, he even chose this former alma mater, which seemed to be filming his first self-directed and self-acted movie in his life, which is of extraordinary significance.

Luo Xun is just a friendly guest appearance.

His little scenes can be finished in just one day if he is willing to work. However, Jay Chou forced Luo Xun to shoot for several more days. His main purpose was to ask Luo Xun to help guide his personal performance issues. Don’t look at Jay Chou’s winning award for his male lead in "Initial D", in fact, his performance without expression in the movie has actually endured some criticism, but because he is a new performer after all, this criticism has not been magnified.

Luo Xun agreed.

As a result, he was like a guest star in the director's work, providing sufficient performance guidance to other actors including Jay Chou. Of course, during this process, Luo Xun showed interest in director's work, which attracted Jay Chou's attention:

"Do you want to make a movie, too?"

Hearing Jay Chou’s questions, Luo Xun smiled and said, “I have this idea, but I am not prepared enough at the moment, so I will not take photos by myself in the short term.”

"I think..."

Jay Chou said seriously: "You can be a good director, it depends on some of the things you have done in my crew these days, and you have shown considerable experience."

"Please."

Luo Xun found that he had been with Jay Chou for a long time and couldn't help but say a Taiwanese accent: "If you hadn't been using me all the time, these should have been the work you were responsible for."

"Ha ha."

Jay Chou smiled proudly: "Or you think I'm a song like "Blue and White Porcelain" for nothing, and I won't try to leave if I don't squeeze you out. Of course, I can let the assistant director hang your name in the column."

"That's not necessary."

Luo Xun didn't think he had done anything great. Jay Chou's request was just to give Luo Xun the opportunity to summarize his experience in filming MV some time ago. He is constantly absorbing experience and knowledge in this area. This is a process of continuous enrichment. His efforts have already paid off. Moreover, the power of "Blue and White Porcelain" is indeed extraordinary, and the popularity directly radiates into his first album "The Wind Rises". Even though Luo Xun has not officially included this song in the album-

Jay Chou is very generous.

He said that the popularity of "Blue and White Porcelain" was at the same time as Luo Xun's first album, so it would be better to include it directly, as long as Luo Xun helps him take care of the crew, Luo Xun did not refuse this time and agreed with a smile.

Immediately afterwards.

Jay Chou expressed his affirmation of Luo Xun's musical talent with emotion: "The Internet has destroyed the monopoly position of traditional large record companies. Many former kings and queens can only hold concerts in different cities under the background of big data. Several companies including Huana that monopolize our music scene have done nothing. In this context, there are people who actually advocate free songs and free concerts. It is helpless to not pursue copyright issues. Your appearance is quite timely, which has helped too many people rebuild their confidence."

"Faith is useless."

Luo Xun does not think that he has changed the situation. At the same time, the US physical record industry is also affected by the Internet. So why are other people's songs still so diverse and rich? Because the United States has complete intellectual property protection measures, napster sued the bankruptcy that year and also had a warning to all. Itunes is another online music sales platform. Apple took the lead and protected the US physical record industry to a certain extent.

"Yes."

Jay Chou resonates with this: "In recent years, there has been a phenomenon that has made me worry. Many singers' red songs are covered by Japan and South Korea. They are like "The Fruit of Midsummer", "Later", "I Believe", "Red Sun", "I Can't End Love for You", "The Original Dream", etc., which have shown that good songs are becoming increasingly difficult to produce in the musical soil in China. In contrast, European and American music is still a controversial contest and a hundred flowers bloom. No matter what type of singer, as long as the songs are of sufficient quality, they will have a place."

Luo Xun shrugged.

Writing a good word with a very set of melody will attract market attention. This is because the public's aesthetics have not kept up. The fundamental reason why public's aesthetics have not kept up is that there are not many music in China that can improve the public's aesthetics. The so-called music actually has not only vocal accompaniment, but should be guitar, bass, drums, piano, orchestra, electronic synthesizer, ambient sound, etc.

Talk to the end.

Jay Chou suddenly said seriously, he wanted to make online albums in the future, just songs that require online payments to listen. Seeing Luo Xun's expression was calm, he couldn't help asking: "Aren't you surprised? Now everyone listens to songs for free. Jay Chou is so idiotic, he actually said that his songs will be charged in the future..."

Luo Xun smiled.

Of course he was not surprised, because Jay Chou did this in the future, and he did it quite successfully, and made a personal record of the sales of Discourse Music Electronics: "I support your decision very much, and I also want to do paid albums with you."

"real?"

Jay Chou was so happy that he felt more pity with Luo Xun for a moment. This degree of incest made him glad that he had made Luo Xun a friend: "I always think that most people who play the piano are playing the piano, and only a few people are playing music when they play the piano. I think you are the one who plays music with the piano rather than just playing the piano."

It's quite difficult to talk about.

In addition to talking about music, the focus of the two's discussion is of course on the movie. Luo Xun provided a lot of opinions he thought he was good to "The Secret" and in this process, he also met a new actress with very good acting skills.

Guilunmei.

Strictly speaking, Gui Lunmei is no longer a newcomer. She filmed a few years ago, but the movie that really made her famous is the "Secrets that Can't Say" that has attracted much attention under the halo of Jay Chou's king. After Luo Xun got to know the other party, he also asked his assistant to ask for the other party's contact information.

Don't think wrongly.

He thought that he might not be unable to cooperate if he had the opportunity in the future, because he had recently tried to get into the director's work, which gave Luo Xun a premonition. He would try to direct and act one or even multiple works in the future, and it would be very beneficial for him to know more excellent actors.

This is a recognition.

Gui Lunmei, who is still unknown in the entertainment industry, was flattered. She did not expect that she had fallen into Luo Xun's eyes. In her brief understanding of the entertainment industry, Luo Xun is a big shot who is not inferior to Jay Chou. She even thought that this was a hint of Luo Xun...

Then there was nothing.

Although Luo Xun asked for contact information, he had no intention of contacting the other party. Even Luo Xun forgot about this, he began to discuss with Jay Chou how to shoot the movie.
