Therefore, there is no doubt that Hongguang was founded by Maaya, but now Maaya has retreated behind the scenes, becoming a filmmaker out of interest.

Then, the one who takes over Hongguang should be...my future brother-in-law, Hoshino Kyosuke.

Thinking of this, Jiang Bai suddenly felt that the road ahead was magnanimous, and the feeling of being connected was really refreshing!

"Then find Hongguang Studio."

Jiang Bai did not hesitate to choose Hongguang Studio as the special effects team, but the employees were shocked, thinking that Jiang Bai hadn't heard what he said clearly: "Hey! Assistant director, Hongguang Studio generally doesn't accept outside work..."

Jiang Bai smiled and waved his hands to say don't worry: "It's okay, I will talk to them in person, I still have some contacts with the Hoshino Consortium, if you are lucky, maybe you can talk about it."

"..."

For a while, everyone in the conference room looked at me and I looked at you, and it was hard to say anything. Although they didn't know how hard-core Jiang Bai said about the connections, most people still hoped that this would happen.

Anyway, there is no rush, you can wait for the assistant director to talk about it.

The special effects are over, and the next topic is the soundtrack.

Japan's soundtrack industry is extremely developed, even surpassing the beautiful country of Hollywood in a certain aspect.

Although the main body's reputation is not as famous as that of Hollywood soundtrack composers, but in terms of style, Japan's soundtrack composers highlight a no-holds-barred.

Hollywood soundtracks are prevalent in academic style, and academic soundtracks dominated by James Horner and John Williams have always occupied a high point. In public opinion, Hans Zimmer's over-commercial soundtrack type is based on a a disdainful attitude.

As for some alternative approaches, those who take a slanted sword are directly ignored. The most famous of them is the Italian soundtrack master, Eliomo who composed the soundtracks for the "Darts" series, "The Past" series, "Paradise Cinema", and "Sea Pianist". Ricone.

Who dares to say that Morricone's soundtrack is not good?No.But does Hollywood take it seriously?disregard.It wasn't until 14 that Morricone, who was in his 90s, won a statuette for the soundtrack of "The Hateful Eight".

Jiang Bai thinks that this is actually just a symbolic reward, because the soundtrack of the Hateful Eight is only a regular performance in Morricone's decades of soundtrack career. This boss no longer needs Oscar to gild himself. This The statuette belongs to Oscar who wants to use Morricone's reputation to gild himself.

It can be seen that the music style in Hollywood has a very stubborn chain of contempt. The academic school looks down on the commercial school, and it directly ignores the innovative school like Morricone.This has also led to a very unified basic flavor of Hollywood soundtracks.

However, this situation does not exist on Japan's side.

Dongying's soundtrack world can be described as a mix of monsters, ghosts and snakes, classical, modern, popular, experimental, no taboos, and a hundred schools of thought contending. There are more traditional classical schools like Akira Senju and Takayuki Hattori.

There are also modern electronic schools like Hiroyuki Sawano and Kensuke Ushio, and eclectic casual schools like Yoko Kanno and Taku Iwasaki, as well as Yuki Kajiura, Go Shiina, who like to incorporate human voices, and Huaxia movies. The old regulars, Kitaro, Kawai Kenji.

The above are all relatively normal genres, at least people will not find it strange when they listen to them, there are many others, he is not normal!

For example, Ryuichi Sakamoto, who plays avant-garde electronics, although many people love to listen to his Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence, but he is an out-and-out avant-garde electronic musician. His soundtrack to The Revenant is obviously atonal. Avant-garde electronics, it sounds like it has nothing to do with Yueer.

There is also Makoto’s favorite idol, Susumu Hirasawa, who is also an avant-garde electronic musician. This person’s style is to highlight a strange, not only strange music, but also strange words. It is said that there is a thin line between genius and madman. If you have heard his music , you will clearly feel the blurred boundary between the two.

These two are relatively influential, besides them, there is also the Yuneng Shanshiro group who made the soundtrack for "Akira", and the style of music is also quite weird.There is also Kuniaki Shima, who played the soundtrack of "Kamen Rider Koto", his style is also difficult to explain, and it is a bit strange.There is also Toshi Ishii who can combine Zen music + rock.

The entire Japanese soundtrack industry has all kinds of styles, academic school?Where did the academics come from?Who decides which is the academic school?As long as there are enough genres, there will be no mainstream.

This is the status quo of the soundtrack industry in Japan.

Therefore, the choice of musicians by the parasitic beast is not like choosing special effects. On the contrary, there are too many musicians that the parasitic beast can choose!

Jiang Bai looked at the list that the employees handed over, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching. After counting, there are more than a dozen soundtrack artists who have a construction period and can choose.

Jiang Bai is confident that he knows a little about the Japanese music industry, but there are still many people in it that she has never heard of.

She even saw Yoko Kanno in the line, um, she is her favorite musician, so pass decisively!

Although Jiang Bai likes Kanno Yoko very much, Aunt Yoko is not the candidate that Jiang Bai thinks is suitable for parasitic beasts.

In other words, she has already chosen someone in her heart, and that is the soundtrack of the previous animation version of Parasite, Ken Arai.

I believe that the vast majority of Two-dimensional are already familiar with "next to you" composed by Ken Arai for Parasite. Sometimes, preconceived impressions are not so easy to dispel.

Therefore, for the song "next to you", Jiang Bai also wants to give this opportunity to Ken Arai again!Of course, for some selfishness... Jiang Bai thinks that he should make a few more songs to be worthy of his trust in him!

"Then, let Ken Arai do the score."

Jiang Bai clicked on the candidate without hesitation, and everyone in the conference room looked at me and I looked at you again. Well, it should be okay for the deputy director to think so, and she has her own reasons.

So Jiang Bai's proposal was easily passed. When the proposal was sent to the executor, he asked Jiang Bai: "Then, deputy director, we will contact Ken Arai. According to the standard, we will buy from him Twenty pieces, right?"

"No! If you want to buy, buy the most exquisite, tell Ken Arai, I want him to create more than 30 soundtracks! Money is not an issue!"

Most importantly, I want to hear it!

"Hi, hello, is this Mr. Ken Arai?"

In a music studio, a young man with colorfully dyed yellow hair and light smoky eye makeup is answering a phone call. The man's hairstyle and attire are easily reminiscent of a noun, non-mainstream.

And such a non-mainstream youth is Ken Arai, who Jiang Bai is thinking about.

Ken is a piano composer. Yes, he is a piano composer. This is probably the special feature of Japanese musicians. They include non-mainstream pianists who kill Matt, and electronic rock musicians in suits and ties.

Although Ken is also an excellent electronic musician while being a piano composer.

At this moment, Ken was communicating with Party A on the phone about the soundtrack, and nodded repeatedly while talking: "Hi, hi, wakada... hi. So, how many songs do you want? Huh? Thirty head?!"

Ken couldn't help being slightly surprised. Thirty soundtracks is not a small number. Generally speaking, a film or TV series needs about twenty pieces of soundtrack. After twenty pieces, it is considered a soundtrack requirement. High crew.

And the Parasitic Beast crew requested [-] soundtracks at one time, and added a sentence that there is no cap, which made Ken almost think that the other side didn't ask him to make the soundtrack, but urged him to update the album...

"That... thirty poems, this number is a relatively large number." Ken paused slightly, and replied, not saying that he didn't want to do it, but that he had to pay more.

"Don't worry, Mr. Ken Arai, in terms of remuneration, we will give you enough. Our director values ​​you very much. He said that as long as you want, you can set your own price. As long as the crew can afford it, we can discuss it."

Well, it's a very happy crew, and the director thinks highly of himself... Although Ken took it as a compliment to himself, but this kind of words sounded good, and it felt like being recognized by others, so he was in a good mood, so he No lion opened his mouth and said a price that he thought was more appropriate.

"Okay, Mr. Ken, wait a moment, let me ask here."

On the other side, the employee didn't hang up the phone directly, but whispered a few words to Jiang Bai who was still in the meeting. After hearing this, Jiang Bai didn't directly agree or disagree, but said that he wanted to call Ken himself.

After taking the phone from the employee, Jiang Bai greeted Ken on the other end: "Hello, Mr. Ken, I have been admiring your name for a long time~"

"...oh, oh, hello..."

Hearing the melodious female voice from the other end, Ken was startled, what's going on, has someone changed?Why did she suddenly become a girl?But don't say it, the voice is really nice, if you can sing, you should be a good seedling.

It's a pity that ken made a mistake in his judgment, and Jiang Bai can't sing.

"Hello, how are you?"

"I'm Miyano Eshiro, the assistant director of the Parasite crew. You can just call me Miyano. I really like Mr. Ken Arai's electronic music. I feel that your style of music is very suitable for the style of Parasite, so Decided to choose you as the soundtrack composer of Parasite."

"Oh~ It's a pleasure to meet you, it turns out that Miss Miyano is your favorite~"

Although the two are not familiar with each other, it does not prevent each other from bragging about their business. They have been in the industry for many years, and this kind of polite talk has basically been engraved into their DNA.

However, Ken was a little surprised that this female assistant director had actually heard the electronic music she created. After all, his electronic music is relatively high-frequency hardcore, and most of it is liked by men. Many girls prefer soft music. The psychedelic electronics, who like hardcore like myself, are really rare.

Therefore, Ken felt quite happy to see him.

"Then, assistant director, I think the better price is..."

"Hey~Mr. Ken, don't talk about money~ Talking about money hurts feelings. I am also half of Mr. Ken's fan, so this time I am more self-willed to ask Mr. Ken for more than 30 soundtracks. I only know this amount It’s relatively big, so I’ll work hard on you, Mr. Ken. As for the price, there’s no need to discuss it, you can pay as much as you think is suitable, Mr. Ken, as long as you can finish [-] songs, the reward will definitely not be small.”

Jiang Bai responded to Ken very boldly, this kind of attitude of not caring about the cost and the large amount of money really surprised Ken. After being surprised, his perception of this director Miyano couldn't help but improve a little bit, and he said it was his own. Half a fan.

Tsk tsk tsk, although ken knows that this is a close relationship, but who makes Jiang Bai give enough sincerity~ Who doesn't love this kind of sincere close relationship~

"Then I really appreciate Director Miyano's generosity."

"Sweat~ What generosity~ I am very yearning for you musicians. When I was young, I still wanted to learn piano, but my family didn't have much money. When I grew up, I went to the music club and asked. The teacher said that my hands were already stiff. I couldn’t practice, and I felt really lost at the time.”

"So, today I don't want to talk about prices and other topics. I just want to talk to Mr. Ken about music with the mentality of a fan. You can treat it as me chasing stars with public funds. , hahaha~”

Jiang Bai speaks forthrightly and funny, the more he talks about ken, the more he likes it, and what kind of public fund chasing stars, this word really makes ken laugh, as a non-mainstream fan, he is born with this kind of "rebellious" behavior Have a good impression.

So, in just a few words, Jiang Bai became acquainted with Ken. Jiang Bai asked a lot of topics that he was interested in, and Ken also had a very good impression of this female director fan with a nice voice, basically everything was fine. answer.

In this way, the meeting can't be opened, everyone looks at you and I look at you, and some are left out looking at Jiang Bai chatting cheerfully with Ken on the other end of the phone for half an hour.

For a while, many meeting staff felt a little bit of grievance in their hearts. Why, why did we come to the meeting first, but in the end the assistant director chatted with an unknown musician there?

And some people saw the other side, such as Qing Shui, he couldn't help feeling Jiang Bai's social skills, he was able to get acquainted with a stranger so easily for the first time, and chatted together for half an hour!

There is also this attitude of talking, what does it mean to talk to people when you see people, and talk to the devil.Jiang Bai is really proficient in what people say and what to say, and he can easily win the favor of the other party.

Qing Shui has a feeling that this Ken will probably become Jiang Bai's network in the future.

Jiang Bai chatted with Ken Chang for more than 40 minutes before ending the topic.

"Oh, tsk, I'm sorry, I have a meeting here, so I can't talk to you, Mr. Ken, but don't worry, I will visit in person in a few days to discuss about the soundtrack, and then we can have a good chat It's over."

"Ahahaha, you don't need the director to come over in person. I should have been there. As the soundtrack, if you don't go to the set to feel the range, it's not easy to use materials to compose a song!"

In the past few 10 minutes, it can be said that Ken chatted very happily, and there was a feeling of seeing each other late. Although Jiang Bai didn't know much and basically asked this and that, but the questions she asked could always get stuck in his heart. good on.

This gave ken a chance to express himself well. People like to express themselves. In this wave of conversations, ken had such a chance to express himself.

Why do people like to talk to smart people?Not because smart people speak well, but because smart people can understand what people say.

People like to take the initiative in their own topics when talking. On the one hand, they want to express themselves, and on the other hand, they hope that their words can be understood and recognized by others.

And smart people can understand and admit other people's points of view, giving people a feeling that what I said is accepted by others, and I am really happy.

And Jiang Bai is an expert in this. She is very good at mobilizing the other party to express her desire, and then accepting and admitting the other party's point of view. Even if it is at odds with herself, Jiang Bai can accept the point of view.

Therefore, many people feel very comfortable talking to Jiang Bai.

Ken is one of those coaxed comfortably.

"So, director Miyano, don't you want [-] songs? I don't want to open my mouth, I will calculate according to the regular price of the market, and I will give you two more, just as a friend with you, director Jiang Bai, if in the future If there is an opportunity, I hope to cooperate again.”

"Hahaha, definitely. You can't let Mr. Ken suffer, right? If the price is average, it's too inappropriate for your workload of 32 songs..."

The two argued again, and negotiated a wave of reverse bargaining with each other, and then set the reward at a price slightly higher than the market average price.

However, in fact, Jiangbai made some money in this wave. After all, the average price represents the average price under normal circumstances. This time, Jiangbai’s requirements are very high. In this way, the average price is only slightly higher. , In fact, it is earned.

Therefore, Jiang Bai seems to be making concessions, but in fact there is no loss at all.

While I made money, I also established a good relationship with Party B. Both parties were harmonious and harmonious, and completed a transaction that both of them felt blood-earned. Jiang Bai’s operation can be called a model Party A.

After closing the mobile phone, Jiang Bai returned the mobile phone to the employee who had been standing aside to observe. Jiang Bai warned: "In the future, the attitude towards people will be better. When dealing with business with a good attitude, it will be helpful. Also, read more Reading..."

"Oh... oh oh! Good assistant director."

In front of everyone, he performed how to handle interpersonal business, Jiang Bai returned to his position, smiled lightly, picked up his ballpoint pen, and tapped on the table.

"Da da."

"Okay, everyone, a little delay, the meeting continues ~ so, where did we discuss just now?"

Looking at Jiang Bai's attitude with ease, suddenly, the young woman's weight in the hearts of many members, and even many older middle-aged people, once again increased a bit.

Some people don't have the ability to rely on their faces to make a living, and some people can rely on their faces to make a living, but they can use their talents to achieve supernatural powers.

In this meeting, no one would look down on the female deputy director on the grounds of being young. Even Shimizu wanted to abdicate himself and let Jiang Bai become the director.

I can't accept it.

Chapter 250 Eight MI[-] Traditional Performing Arts

Under Jiang Bai's leadership, most of the problems in the meeting were dealt with in a hurry, and the later work process was also determined. However, at the end of the meeting, Jiang Bai did not directly adjourn the meeting, but told everyone Let's talk about the fact that I want to run the crew.

"Well, everyone, it's rare that everyone is here. As for me, I will tell you one thing. In fact, according to the contract, I was only on the crew for one month. Director Shimizu also knew about this."

The moment Jiang Bai mentioned the schedule, Qing Shui couldn't help but groaned in his heart. If Jiang Bai didn't say it, Qing Shui would have forgotten that his contract with Jiang Bai was time-limited, and she would only stay in the crew for a month!

"Hey! Well, Jiang Bai, the contract can actually be changed! You don't have to rush to leave first..."

Qing Shui suggested to Jiang Bai in a little panic.

At the beginning, he still had a little doubt about Jiang Bai's ability, so he signed Jiang Bai conservatively, but after Jiang Bai gradually became the mainstay of the crew, he realized that it was not that Jiang Bai needed the crew, but The crew needs Jiang Bai!

At this critical stage of filming, if Jiang Bai's contract expires and leaves, the difficulty of subsequent filming will increase instantly.

Now Jiang Bai is responsible for photography, lens, performance, and a small part of art. If there is no accident, he will also be responsible for communicating with musicians later.

If this goes away, the functions of the entire crew will collapse in half in an instant.

And Qing Shui's words immediately aroused the uneasiness of others.

"Huh? Assistant director? You can't go!"

"That's right, assistant director, we don't know about the contract, but we really think that no one is more suitable to be an assistant director than you!"

"Associate director! Everything is easy to talk about, there is no need to leave, Director Shimizu, please persuade me, the contract can also be changed!"

Looking at the panic and worry of everyone in the conference room, Jiang Bai couldn't help covering his mouth and chuckling, and said: "Hahaha, everyone, don't worry, I didn't say I was leaving, but I also have reasons to go to other crews .”

"So, for the next period of time, I will stay in the Parasite Crew, but I still have to act in other crews..."
