Chapter 80 Three Choral Songs (Fifth)

Qi Wei's record company has now been renovated, and has rented an additional two hundred flats to set up a few function rooms, practice rooms and recording studios.

The original leather bag company has been reborn and is already a regular record company.

Zhou Chuanxi has given the result, he is willing to join Qi Wei's record company and has already signed several record contracts.

But he still wanted to study abroad for half a year first, and Qi Wei agreed.

Willing to hang out with himself, among other things, Qi Wei can at least guarantee that he will not be reduced to the point where he is randomly commented on a music talent show like the later generations.

As for Fatty Zhou, PolyGram has helped get in touch.

It's just that Fatty Zhou politely refused.

The reason is simple, because it is close to home.

Fatty Zhou grew up in a single-parent family. He is very filial to his mother, and he is not willing to leave Wanwan to develop in the mainland for the time being.

It's a pity, but there is still a chance, after all, it is still a few years before Fatty Zhou gets attention and starts to make a fortune.

Qi Wei planned to invite him in person when his second solo album was released and promoted in Wanwan.

Good things take a long time, after all, with Fatty Zhou's future achievements, he won't lose if he grabs it, and it's not too much to visit the thatched cottage three times.

After filming the movie "Love in the Internet Age", the film and television affairs can be temporarily put aside, and Qi Wei started to work on his second personal album.

PolyGram attached great importance to Qi Wei's second solo album, and Zheng Donghan also flew all the way from Hong Kong to Beijing, and came here in person again.

"Your album "19 Years Old" did not sell as expected in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia. It may be because of your mainland singer. I suggest that your new album should have a few chorus songs. Our Polygram The singer resources can be completely opened up for you..." Zheng Donghan suggested.

According to statistics obtained from PolyGram, Qi Wei's "19 Years Old" solo album has only sold more than 100 million copies in Hong Kong, Taiwan and overseas.

This data is already excellent, but compared to the fact that this album has sold more than 200 million copies in the mainland, it is obviously not enough.

Especially now that the overseas market in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Canada is larger than the mainland market, it seems even more abnormal.

There are many factors causing this situation, including reasons for publicity, and there may also be cases of concealing sales.

Qi Wei can also understand this situation. After all, the mainland publisher that Boss Wu helped Qi Wei find is also engaged in pirated editions while publishing genuine editions.

Of course, the main reason should be as Zheng Donghan said.

Qi Wei also understood in his heart, nodded and replied:
"Heroes see the same thing. I have such a plan. I have also prepared three choral songs for my new album. I just want to cooperate with the three singers under your banner..."

"Oh? Which three?"

"Zhang Xueyou, the princess, and... Zhou Huimin."

Among the three people mentioned by Qi Wei, Zhang Xueyou is the easiest one, because he was single-handedly pulled out by Zheng Donghan.

Even using the status of the successor of the God of Songs to praise his son Zhang Xueyou is willing to cooperate and contribute, so Zhang Xueyou will definitely give face and be willing to cooperate with Zheng Donghan.

As for the princess, due to the butterfly effect, she did not sign a contract with EMI in this life, but chose to return to Polygram. In addition, she is more fond of musical talents, so it is easier to invite her.

Zhang Xueyou and Princess Wang can be regarded as the most popular queens in the Chinese music scene. They are extremely popular in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia. If Qi Wei's second solo album wants to sell better in the markets of these regions, he must With their fame, it is definitely the best solution to cooperate with them.

Otherwise, with the exclusivity of these regions and the current general discrimination against mainland artists, it is still possible to repeat the same mistakes.

Ge Geying also put the song "Meet Nine Eight" that he collaborated with the princess on the album "Conquer" before it was sold in Hong Kong, Taiwan and overseas.

Another point is that Qi Wei's first solo album is now a big hit. Although many media have already called Qi Wei the pop king of the mainland, in fact it is still so short.

And Qi Wei is not a singer under PolyGram, and Zhang Xueyou and Princess Zhang are both under different record companies, so there is no such thing as support. Singers from different record companies usually cooperate with the same coffee, and Zhang Xueyou The concubine and the others cooperate, and the media will default to Qi Wei as the same as them.

As long as Qi Wei's new album continues to sell well, he will be directly promoted to a singer of the heavenly king and queen level.

Zheng Donghan understands this truth. He spent such a high price to cooperate with Qi Wei. Naturally, he hopes that Qi Wei's new album will continue to sell well and achieve results, so he will fully cooperate with Qi Wei.

I saw Zheng Donghan nodded and said: "You want to cooperate with Princess Zhang Xueyou, I will help you fight for it, but if you want to convince them, you have to come up with good songs, I wonder what songs you have prepared for your new album?

Qi Wei smiled, took out a file from the drawer and said, "This is the song I originally prepared for the new album, but things have changed a bit now"

Speaking of which, Qi Wei rummaged through another locked drawer, found three manuscripts and handed them to Zheng Donghan.

"These are the choral songs I prepared for them."

Looking at the thick layer of drawers that Qi Wei rummaged through, it seemed that there were still many songs in it, and seeing the quality of the songs Qi Wei prepared for the new album, Zheng Donghan couldn't help but gasped.

"It's unbelievable that you can create so many songs. What inspired you?" Zheng Donghan asked.

"As I have said before, I am also an actor, and the songs here are the soundtracks I made when I was making a movie."

Actors are full of emotions, and filming different scenes is equivalent to experiencing different lives, so it's normal to express feelings.

As long as there is an acceptable reason, Zheng Donghan regarded Qi Wei as a real musical genius, and continued:

"To be honest, the songs you prepared for the new album are very good. All of them have the potential to explode. They can be used as the title song of an album. Don't you think it's a waste to put them in an album?"

Qi Wei replied confidently: "Things that others regard as treasures do not mean that I am the same. I believe that I can create more excellent works in the future, so I don't think there is any waste. Besides, I am a mainland singer. To compete with you Hong Kong and Taiwan singers, don't you have to make more efforts?"

"It looks like you've thought it through."

Zheng Donghan replied with a smile, he didn't bother with this question, anyway, they didn't need Polygram to come up with song resources.

I am more and more convinced that it is a wise decision to cooperate with Qi Wei.

""Thousands of Miles Away"? Is this the song you want to collaborate with Zhang Xueyou? Yes, the quality of this song is very high."

Looking at the song mark on the manuscript, Zheng Donghan said with satisfaction.

Many times when listening to songs, there is a preconceived impression. Although the voices of Zhang Xueyou and the dirty demon king are very different, since Zhang Xueyou can be called the god of song, he must be able to control it.

Anyway, this song is not the title song of Qi Wei's new album, Qi Wei wants to hear what Zhang Xueyou feels like singing this song.

It's kind of nasty.

Qi Wei said: "I will use some traditional classical instruments in the arrangement of this song "Thousands of Miles Away" to create a Chinese-style song."

"Chinese style?" Zheng Donghan suddenly thought of the song "Yellow Race" that Qi Wei gave to Liu Tianwang before, nodded and praised: "This arrangement complements the lyrics and music. It's good to try different styles."

Then Zheng Donghan watched the second chorus song, and after appreciating it, he jokingly said: "The princess's song style has changed a lot now, if you write a rock song, maybe it will be easier to impress her."

Everyone knows that the princess likes rock and roll, and even her husband who is willing to help empty the spittoon is also a rock singer.

"I have already accepted the invitation of CCTV Spring Festival Gala. I heard that the princess was also invited. I think it is very suitable for us to sing this song together in this year's Spring Festival Gala."

Zheng Donghan nodded, "Your idea is very good. This song "Meeting Nine Eight" is really suitable for the occasion. I will invite her for you."

The concubine did not sign with EMI, and naturally she would not cooperate with Ge Geying, a subsidiary of EMI. There was no problem with Qi Wei coming up with this song.

"Then I will trouble you." Qi Wei thanked.

Zheng Donghan hadn't seen the third song yet, so he took the lead and said, "Why do you want to ask Zhou Huimin to sing as a chorus, she is a bit troublesome, in fact, we have other very good female singers in Polygram, such as Liu Xiaohui, Guan Shuyi, and even Priscilla Chan. can help you get there”

At this time, in order to tie up a certain scumbag, Zhou Huimin was going to temporarily give up her career and leave Hong Kong to live in the United States with the scumbag.

"There is no other reason. I am a good-looking person, and I like to cooperate with beautiful female singers. She is just within my aesthetic range."

Hearing Qi Wei's explanation, it happened that Zheng Donghan also saw the third chorus song.

""Break Up Kindly"?"

Zheng Donghan looked up at Qi Wei, and suddenly smiled knowingly.

"It's a little troublesome, but it doesn't matter. This is not an excessive request. I will do my best to satisfy you. I will help you with the things in Hong Kong City."
