Chapter 182: Prepare for the semi-finals, Dongyin First Symphony Orchestra makes another move(1/2)
Chapter 182 Preparing for the rematch, Dongyin First Symphony Orchestra takes action again
"You make an offer. We won't counter-offer."
On Monday evening, Fang Xing finished rehearsals for the Spring Festival Gala program and flew back to Donghai from Kyoto.
As soon as I got off the plane, I got a private invitation.
Sitting in the Tangyun Teahouse in the Donghai World Trade Center, the new Xinyang Maojian has been brewed.
Sitting across from him was Chen Lipeng, a shareholder of Puxiang Records.
This time it was a private invitation and there was no one else around, so Chen Lipeng spoke more directly.
He took out a business card and pushed it in front of Fang Xing: "This is the business card of the producer of Red Film and Television's S-level martial arts production "Blood Rain".
"Let me tell you directly. The producer is Wen Han's uncle. So, as long as you agree to sell "Skylark", you can choose any role after the fourth series in this big production.
"In addition, I also have some influence on the three major Golden Melody Awards in the Chinese music industry and can help you a lot.
"Your song "Skylark" is indeed very good.
"Actually, if you put this violin piece in your hands, it won't have much effect.
"This violin piece is more suitable for performance on the stage of international competitions.
"You should also know that this violin piece will not be a big hit in pop music.
"It can only show its true value in competitions.
"I can make this song "Skylark" receive praise around the world.
"Of course, we don't need to think of this as a transaction, we can think of it as making friends."
Chen Lipeng extended an olive branch and made it very clear that he was making friends.
This is all about building relationships.
Moreover, the Chen family's connections are indeed wide.
The producer of this S-class martial arts production "Blood Rain Jiang Hu" is actually Chen Wenhan's uncle.
No wonder the Chen family can designate characters outside the fourth episode at will.
The producers are all sons-in-law of the Chen family, so arranging a role couldn't be easier.
In fact, judging from Chen Lipeng's attitude, Fang Xing did not hate this person.
Because Chen Lipeng is a very standard businessman, and his words will not offend anyone.
To be honest, if Chen Lipeng had come to talk to him from the beginning, Fang Xing might actually compose a violin piece for him instead of overwhelming him.
Of course it won't be "Skylark".
Since "Skylark" has been given to Lu Xiang'er, this matter will not change.
However, it was Chen Wenhan who came to ask for "Skylark" for the first time.
When Fang Xing thought that Chen Wenhan was going to play his own song in the competition, he felt bad.
"Sorry, Mr. Chen, "Skylark" is not for sale." Fang Xing replied in a normal tone.
Chen Lipeng had been working hard in the business field for so many years, and when he heard Fang Xing's calm tone when he spoke, he knew that this matter was going to be difficult to handle.
However, the piece "Skylark" was requested by their violin genius.
Moreover, his old man also said that as long as he can get this piece of music, he can do it at any price.
Therefore, the Chen family is bound to win "Skylark".
Chen Lipeng laughed twice and said: "Mr. Fang, I am not afraid to tell you that we know several judges of the Paganini International Violin Competition. In fact, some results have been decided from the beginning."
Fang Xing heard a hint of threat in his words.
Chen Wenhan's mother is a violinist and has won many awards in international competitions.
In the violin circle, the Chen family is indeed very well-connected.
Therefore, it is not surprising that the Chen family knows the judges of the Paganini International Violin Competition.
In an international competition like this, it is normal to lobby the judges.
As long as the level is not much different, moving up or down one or two places will not have much impact.
Chen Lipeng continued: "If you give "Skylark" to other contestants, you won't get good results. Only by giving it to us can you make this song famous.
"You should know that whether a piece of music becomes famous depends on who plays it."
Under normal circumstances, what Chen Lipeng said is true.
Whether a piece of music can become famous all over the world does have a lot to do with the performer.
At least the music played by the famous violinist can make the music reach the pinnacle achievement it deserves in the shortest time.
Otherwise, this piece of music, even if it is a masterpiece handed down from generation to generation, may take a long time and be slowly discovered by the world.
Fang Xing was indifferent to his lobbying, shook his head and said with a smile: "Actually, you still underestimate this song "Skylark". This song is not for sale, so there is no need to talk about it anymore. As for the S-level resources Mr. Chen mentioned, thank you for your kindness.
I don’t think I need to.”
Chen Lipeng shook his head and said with a smile: "Young man, you may be on a too smooth road, and you don't know what S-level resources mean. Well, I can help you get a chance to audition for the second male role, as long as your acting skills are not bad.
There are so many that can help you win this role."
The reason why Chen Lipeng dared to promise this was because he saw Fang Xing's image with his own eyes.
With Fang Xing's appearance and condition, it is enough to play the second male lead, the only difference is his acting skills.
However, an S-level production like this will definitely need to hire popular stars, and the role of a popular star does not have high requirements for acting skills, as long as it is not too overwhelming.
Fang Xing shook his head and said, "I'm more selective in accepting roles, so I'd like to thank Mr. Chen for his kindness."
Chen Lipeng was a little confused when he heard this answer, with a surprised expression on his face.
Is it more challenging to take on a role?
A newcomer who has never acted before actually said that he is picky when it comes to taking on roles.
Chen Lipeng even suspected that he had heard wrongly.
This time, we still didn't reach an agreement.
After coming out of Tangyun Teahouse, Chen Lipeng felt that Fang Xing was like a poor master. He made such a good offer, but he just wanted a little-known violin piece, but he couldn't even get it.
With these S-level resources, we can even persuade several famous domestic composers to help compose a piece of music.
But Fang Xing was not moved at all.
Chen Lipeng couldn't understand Fang Xing's thoughts.
S-level film and television resources are in front of us, and the role of the second male lead has even been promised. All he needs to do is go through a trial scene.
Even so, Fang Xing did not agree.
There are only two possible reasons that Chen Lipeng can think of.
First, Fang Xing did not want to get involved in the film and television industry.
Secondly, Fang Xing wanted to play the lead male role.
A singer who has never acted before wants to play the male lead in an S-level production in his first role.
This is simply fantastic.
If it were Beijing Film Academy, with a background in the Central Theater Department, there would still be a slight possibility.
This has to be supported by capital. If a singer who has never acted before really wants to play the male lead, then he is definitely overthinking it.
Although the Chen family is determined to win "Skylark", Chen Lipeng has already tried his best.
Even after doing this, I still can't get this violin piece. When I get home, I can make it right in front of the old man.
After leaving the tea house, Chen Lipeng called home: "Dad, I personally talked with the songwriter, but the other party refused to sell it.
"Yes, I told him all the conditions, the best resources, the best connections, and even offered to help him lobby the Golden Melody Awards judges.
"He still refused to agree, so I'd better forget about this piece. It's not completely irreplaceable.
"Okay, I understand. For the three major Golden Melody Awards, if you can, try to suppress them."
…
night.
Fang Xing played the piano and practiced with Lu Xiang'er.
She has already practiced "Skylark" very well.
Fang Xing has also registered the copyright of "Skylark" with the music association designated by the Paganini International Violin Competition.
Lu Xiang'er has also submitted the competition track to the event organizer.
While the two were practicing the piano.
Lu Xiang'er received a call and communicated in English, which was very stumbling.
