Chapter 535 Zhang Yimou’s invitation! ? Write the theme song for the movie "The Great Wall"!

After the interview, it was already dark when I returned home.

Winter nights always come extra early.

Just when Jiang Yi wanted to have a good rest, his cell phone suddenly rang.

Jiang Yi was a little surprised when he found out that the call was from Mei Rou. After all, the two of them had only been separated for less than half an hour.

Line connected.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Yi asked.

Mei Rou's somewhat excited voice came over the phone, "Jiang Yi, director Zhang Yimou just contacted me and told me that he wanted to invite you out for lunch tomorrow noon."

It’s no wonder that Mei Rou is so excited, after all, this is Zhang Yimou.

He has made countless films that have made history!

Although Jiang Yi is not an actor, if he makes friends with him, it will be of no harm to Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi was also a little surprised after hearing Mei Rou's words.

"Did the other party say why?"

"That's not true, but I heard that Director Zhang is planning to shoot a new movie recently. I asked you to dinner probably because of the theme song of the new movie."

Come to think of it, this is probably the only thing.

Jiang Yi thought for a few seconds and then agreed, "Okay, then this matter is settled. Just send me the time and location later."

The next day.

noon.

red hall.

This is a famous private restaurant that only receives five tables of guests every day, and the people who come and go are either rich or noble.

When you drive into their private parking lot, a dedicated waiter will guide you.

They were taken all the way to the private room on the second floor. When Jiang Yi pushed the door in, Zhang Yimou had already arrived.

"Director Zhang, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

At this time, it was still half an hour away from the time they agreed on. Jiang Yi did not expect that Zhang Yimou would come so early. When he saw him, he stopped for a moment.

Zhang Yimou waved his hand, "I just arrived a few minutes earlier than you."

Jiang Yi sat down next to Zhang Yimou.

Zhang Yimou, on the other hand, did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point and stated his purpose of coming to Jiang Yi today.

"Jiang Yi, I think you can guess why I came to see you today. I want to ask you to write a song for my new movie. I don't know what you think."

Zhang Yimou looked at Jiang Yi and waited, and Jiang Yi gave him an answer.

Jiang Yi's explosion during this period was like sparks hitting the earth.

In terms of strength and reputation, there is probably no other person in the entire circle who can compare with Jiang Yi.

And this is one of the biggest reasons why Zhang Yimou came to Jiang Yi.

His new movie has basically been completed and will soon enter the promotion stage.

And Jiang Yi's fame can play a very good publicity role.

After all, no matter how good a movie is, if it cannot be promoted during the promotion stage, the box office of the movie will be unsatisfactory.

Even Zhang Yimou had to pay attention to this.

And with Jiang Yi's current fame, his composition of the theme song for the movie will definitely bring enough attention to the movie!

Hearing this, Jiang Yi was not too surprised because he had made assumptions before.

"Director Zhang, may I take the liberty of asking, what type is your new movie?"

"Of course, I also plan to let you take a look first."

Zhang Yimou took out the computer he carried with him.

Before he came, he specially copied a rough cut version and put it on his computer. After the screen lit up and the characters appeared, Jiang Yi immediately knew which movie this was.

This is "The Great Wall".

Jiang Yi had seen this movie in his previous life, and it's not that it was a bad movie. It can be said that the final result of this movie did not meet people's psychological expectations.

After all, before the movie was released, in an interview, Zhang Yimou himself said that the investment in this movie was as high as billions.

Moreover, the actors participating include both old-school powerful actors and top-notch actors from the new generation. It is also a Chinese and foreign co-production, and there are even powerful Hollywood actors starring.

Such a lineup, coupled with Zhang Yimou's consistent shooting style, and the type of the movie itself, have raised everyone's expectations to the top.

But after it was released, many people were disappointed.

Zhang Yimou's style has always been about big scenes, big special effects, and big production, but apart from these, this movie seems to have nothing else.

The plot is not very enjoyable either.

But as the saying goes.

A great comedy from a bad movie.

Although the movie The Great Wall was a hit, its theme song was a huge hit!

This is only a part that has been cut, and it is now at the end.

Jiang Yi took his eyes away from the computer.

"Director Zhang, do you have any special requirements for the style of the movie's theme song?"

Jiang Yi did not intend to reject Zhang Yimou, after all, this was also a good thing for him.

Hearing Jiang Yi's words, Zhang Yimou closed the computer.

"I am an expert in making movies, but I am an outsider in composing lyrics and singing songs. I believe Jiang Yi that you can have your own style and control."

Hearing this, Jiang Yi thought for a few seconds and then nodded, "No problem, I'll deliver the finished product to you in a week."

A week?

Zhang Yimou was a little surprised.

Although, as he said, he is an outsider in writing lyrics and singing, he still has a general understanding of it.

Whoever writes a new song doesn't start every month, but Jiang Yi said that he can hand over the finished product in a week.

It's hard not to be surprised.

But looking at Jiang Yi's calm and calm expression, people couldn't say anything suspicious.

In the end, Zhang Yimou also chose to believe Jiang Yi.

"In that case, I'll be waiting for your news."

"Don't worry, Director Zhang."

Seeing Jiang Yi's attitude, Zhang Yimou's eyes deepened in admiration.

He likes to deal with people like this.

In fact, Zhang Yimou didn't think about coming to Jiang Yi to cooperate at first.

The theme song of the movie was originally wanted to be solved by the post-production soundtrack team, but the demos they submitted several times were not very satisfactory.

It's not that it's not good, it's just that Zhang Yimou always feels that there is something wrong with it.

Until by chance I heard Jiang Yi singing "Moonlight".

Although the song "Moonlight" doesn't fit well with the movie "The Great Wall", Zhang Yimou had an intuition that Jiang Yi could write a theme song that satisfied him!

Coupled with Jiang Yi's current reputation in the circle, Zhang Yimou chose to come to him without too much hesitation.

"One more thing, Jiang Yi, I hope you can sing this song in person! As for the price, Jiang Yi, just mention it. I will definitely give it to you according to the highest standards in the industry, and I will never let you suffer. !”

Hearing this, Jiang Yi didn't feel any embarrassment and just nodded in agreement.

"Okay, as for the price, Director Zhang, you can just decide. I believe in your character, Director Zhang."
