The program team lost contact, and the desert island live broadcast reversed the character design

Chapter 215 Is the theme song of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty borrowed for another 500 years?

Su Zhe came to "Country Life" on behalf of the crew of "Emperor of Han Dynasty" and then returned to the crew to continue filming.

When he was almost finished, chief producer Zhang Hongwei made a special trip to find him and made a request:
"Great talent, can you write a theme song for our play?"

Su Zhe was stunned for a moment, feeling a little embarrassed.

Isn't it originality to write a theme song for a TV series in this world?And his original ability... ahem, I can only say that he understands everything.

If he was looking for similar songs in his previous life, he had seen "Emperor Wu of Han" with similar content, but he really didn't remember the theme song!
I vaguely remember it being called "The Last Confession"?It seems to have been sung by Tu Honggang.

Su Zhe's heart suddenly moved, and he remembered Tu Honggang's other more famous theme song——

"Borrow another 500 years from the sky"!
This is the theme song of "Kangxi Dynasty". They are both imperial dramas. Judging from the melody, the emotional tone is similar and it can be adapted.

Looking at the lyrics, it seems strange to put the beautiful expectation of "live another 500 years" on Kangxi.

how to say?If Kangxi lived another 500 years, it would be 2222, and now everyone would have to keep a money rat tail.

And Han Wu lived another 500 years, and by 413, it happened to be the era of Wuhu chaos in China.

With him here, why worry about not having a new Weihuo?How could Hu'er be allowed to be so arrogant in Han Dynasty?
Su Zhe thought for a moment and immediately happily decided to give the song to Hanwu.

"Producer Zhang, of course I am willing to contribute a small amount to the crew." Su Zhe smiled, "But you have to talk to Sister Yan, she is in charge of my agency business."

He was just a newcomer as an actor and needed a chance to prove himself, so he had to audition and only asked for a lower salary.

But as a singer, he is top notch!Especially the original songs, which still have a reputation of tens of millions.

Anyway, a singer actually asked him to sing a song, and Mary Sue Studio directly reported an asking price of 1000 million. The copyright was still shared, so there was no need to discuss anything else.

Being so domineering will definitely make it impossible to talk about it, but it is also an attitude towards the outside world to avoid being kidnapped by favors.

Some friends know that one of his songs is worth tens of millions, but they cannot ask him to sing if they want to save face;
If he really wanted to repay a favor worth tens of millions, he wouldn't mind coming up with a good song.

The theme song must not be so exaggerated. He sang it himself anyway. The TV series only bought the right to use it, and the copyright is still in his hands.

But it cannot be sold cheaply.

Zhang Hongwei sighed. Instead of looking for Yan Xiling, he came directly to trick Su Zhe, just to take advantage of his enthusiasm and trick him into getting free money.

Although Su Zhe really wants to promote Chinese culture, he can't be used for free!
Publicity belongs to publicity, and money belongs to money. Higher income can enhance the power of publicity, right?
Zhang Hongwei had no choice but to go to Yan Xiling to negotiate.

Su Zhe ignored these chores and concentrated on acting.

And Yan Xiling quoted 300 million, which is a sky-high price in the field of OST (original soundtrack). Generally speaking, 20 is about the same, and top singers can only get it within one million.

After all, singing OSTs is different from commercial performances. Commercial performances are about exchanging one's fame for money and only calculating business accounts;
But singing OSTs, especially OSTs for big-budget film and television dramas, also promotes the songs and is good for the singer's reputation, so many singers charge very cheaply.

If you don’t believe it, if you look at the popular songs in recent years, you will find that many of them were popularized by movies and TV series.

That is to say, the quality of Su Zhe's songs is too high and the reputation is too great. He doesn't care about the promotional role of movies and TV series. That's why Yan Xiling is so confident:

"Producer Zhang, this is a friendly price, because Su Zhe likes the drama "Emperor of Han Dynasty" very much and repeatedly told me to charge as little as possible."

Zhang Hongwei tried to lower the price:
"Manager Yan, although Su Zhe is the king of folk songs, our drama is an imperial drama. It is different from the folk songs of petty bourgeoisie. He may not be able to write songs that meet our requirements."

Yan Xiling complained in turn:

"So Su Zhe is very troublesome to write. This time is enough for us to go out and take on several business deals! Producer Zhang, our Su Zhe can earn 300 million per business deal."

In fact, there are not that many business opportunities. After all, Su Zhe's asking price is too high, but the price is indeed there. Su Zhe's reputation of never discounting is very famous in the commercial performance market.

After much thought, Zhang Hongwei still couldn't give up the publicity effect brought by Su Zhe's singing of the OST, so he gritted his teeth and agreed.

But he was reluctant to let Su Zhe record the ending song anymore, so he went to find other musicians and only spent 10,000+ to get it done.

When Su Zhe was filming, he didn't have time to record the song until it was finished. It took him two days after returning to Beijing to record "Borrowing from Heaven for Another 500 Years."

Yan Xiling called Zhang Hongwei to inform him, and Zhang Hongwei was stunned:

"Didn't you say it was very laborious? The recording was completed in two days?"

Yan Xiling spoke eloquently: "How can ordinary people like us know how to be a musical genius? Su Zhe must have thought over and over again during filming before he could achieve it in one stroke."

Zhang Hongwei was afraid that Su Zhe would fool him, so he asked:
"Then let's listen to it together, discuss it, and let Su Zhe change the inappropriate parts."

Yan Xiling apologized:

"Producer Zhang, Su Zhe has gone to discuss the plan for the variety show. I'll go over there. Let me tell you first, we can use it or not. If we really don't like it, we can even refund the money, but Su Zhe never changes the songs."

This can't be blamed on Su Zhe. These songs are all copied from classic works. How could he dare to change them randomly?Isn't that superfluous?

Zhang Hongwei was stunned. It was the first time he felt so aggrieved as Party A!

He had no choice but to call the producer of the ending song "The Great Man", Mr. Cui Libo, to help check it.

Cui Libo was also a little unconvinced. Although he was not well-known among the public, he was also on the national team and his title was a well-known composer and producer!What level is Su Zhe?The asking price is more than ten times his?
Come and see him today!
"Old man, help me review it." After Zhang Hongwei saw Cui Libo, he immediately prepared for the worst, "If it's really unqualified, I'll return it! If it's just so-so, I'll turn your "The Great Han Dynasty" into the theme song. Let him record the closing song.”

Cui Libo nodded. No need for Zhang Hongwei to say, he would hold the young man to the highest standards.

After a while, Yan Xiling arrived.

When she saw the two of them preparing for battle, she knew what they were thinking, but she didn't worry at all. After connecting to the Bluetooth speaker, she played directly.

As the exciting music played, the expressions of the two people changed instantly.

Su Zhe asked for a high price, but he was not fooled. He hired a professional symphony orchestra to perform the music, and the effect was more exciting and grand than the original version.

And as the lyrics appeared, "Along the gentle curves of the ups and downs of the mountains and rivers, letting horses love the Central Plains and loving the north and the south of the Yangtze River", it is very consistent with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

(On the contrary, it is a bit strange when it comes to Kangxi, especially "Love Jiangnan". People in Jiading felt confused after listening to it... Anyway, this song is very ridiculous for Kangxi.)
The more Zhang Hongwei and Cui Libo listened, the more they felt that the lyrics and music were excellent, until the climax of the song:

[Look at the iron hoofs clanging across thousands of miles of rivers and mountains
I stand on the cusp of the storm and hold the sun and the moon tightly
May the fireworks world be peaceful and happy

I really want to live another 500 years]

Cui Libo stood up directly, excited.

Zhang Hongwei looked at him in surprise, and after the music ended, he asked:

"Teacher Cui, what do you think of this song..."

"That's great!" Cui Libo couldn't help but praise, "No wonder he is so arrogant because he is really capable!"

Yan Xiling quickly explained:
"Su Zhe is not arrogant, he is just very confident in his music and doesn't want to change his songs..."

Halfway through her words, she felt that this seemed to be a standard example of "relying on one's talents and being arrogant", and she even said she was stuck.

Cui Libo seemed to have become an old fan of Su Zhe and said for her:

"No need to explain! I'm not an old man who only knows how to stage music! At Su Zhe's level, he really has the confidence not to change the song!"

Zhang Hongwei looked at him blankly:
"The theme song..."

"Of course, use his!" Cui Libo glanced at Zhang Hongwei very dissatisfied, as if to say:

You, Party A, know nothing!Dare you ask Su Zhe to change the song?
Zhang Hongwei said helplessly:

"Mr. Cui is so upright...Okay, okay! If I don't add any superfluous information, why don't I just use it?"

Yan Xiling suppressed a smile on the side and felt very high-spirited:

"It's so comfortable to be Su Zhe's manager. You don't have to beg for help in a low voice. You can just hug his thigh tightly."

If it were any other artist, Zhang Hongwei would have changed this attitude long ago.

She immediately discussed the release time and publicity methods with Zhang Hongwei.

On the other side, Su Zhe is also finalizing the final plan for "Let's Time Travel".

Su Zhe had a similar show in his previous life. The guest lineup was not bad, including Uncle Shen, Mr. Guoli, and Concubine Concubine. It stands to reason that these three are enough to support a top variety show. The concept and effect of the show are not bad, but the ratings and ratings All average.

He mentally analyzed the reasons for the failure:
First, the broadcast platform is too poor. The basic ratings of Province C Satellite TV are indeed not good, the audience base is too poor, and the publicity ability is not good.

Second, the guests have shortcomings.Mr. Guo Li's control of the show was good, but he was too positive and not harmonious enough. The effect of the show was almost entirely concentrated on Uncle Shen and Concubine Ka. The other guests were obviously not in the same rhythm as them, and they also had the shortcomings of handsome guys and beautiful women.

Handsome guys and beauties who can play well are very important for game variety shows, otherwise a certain big baby will not become famous because of variety shows.

Third, the game design is not very interesting, and it is just a matter of tormenting the guests.Although the scenes of eating shit and bugs are funny, they are too vile.The history part is a bit preachy.

All in all, this idea is somewhat wasted.

Su Zhe stood on the shoulders of his previous life and asked to improve these aspects. Among them, the guest lineup was approved by him, and there was no need to worry about the broadcast platform. H Province Satellite TV plus Penguin could not find a more powerful broadcast and publicity in China. The platform has been released.

With only the game session left, Su Zhe strongly requested:

"Don't mess with the guests, the key is to be interesting! You don't have to restore historical details."

Lu Xiaomin, who is confirmed as the producer, is also very supportive:

"Don't worry! Since the main purpose is to play games, let's just let the program team assign tasks to the guests and let them travel back in history to complete the game tasks and earn points."

When Su Zhe heard her creativity, his heart moved:
Give a task?Travel through history?mission accomplished?Earn points?
Isn’t this unlimited streaming? !
　What I checked is that the asking price for Mao Buyi OST (arranged) is 200 million, Zhang Jie (singing) is about 100 million, and Su Zhe is arranging for 300 million, which should be considered a friendly price.

　　It is said that "Borrow from Heaven for Another 500 Years" was originally the theme song of Zheng Chenggong's TV series. However, it was not broadcast and was given to Kangxi. Su Zhe gave it to Han Wu, so the country's surnamed man should have no problem with it.

　　The next chapter is at night.
