You Made Me a Superstar

   Chapter 432 Who is Zhou Yang!

   So far.

   China Star Entertainment currently has fifteen contracted artists, eight managers, and thirty-two permanent employees.

   is still a small-scale entertainment company in China.

   However, as of this year's Mid-Autumn Festival, the box office data of Huaxing in 2007 has shocked countless people's jaws.

   The total box office of Huaxia’s local movies is 3.5 billion RMB, and the movies under Huaxing’s account for nearly 1.2 billion box office value.

   accounted for one-third of the box office, which not only slapped other film and television companies, but also changed the pattern of the entire Chinese film industry.

  The music data is even more amazing.

  In this era when physical albums are withering away and countless singers have switched to the Internet, Song Qianqian's total album sales actually increased against the trend. On September 10th, it exceeded one million copies.

   In addition, Song Qianqian's total album Cailing downloads exceeded 100 million, online music playback exceeded 200 million, and the Q dog music entity chart female singer ranked first for 40 consecutive days, becoming a well-deserved dark horse in 2007...

   According to statistics, Huaxing’s total profit from copyright in film, television and music in the past nine months has reached an astonishing 500 million pure profit!

   "However, due to the fact that we have done a lot of charity work, the actual profit on our company's books is nearly half less than the outside statistics..."

  In the office.

  Xu Mei took out the quarterly report, and after hesitating for a while, finally said this to Zhou Yang.

After    finished speaking, she glanced at Zhou Yang's reaction, but saw Zhou Yang nodded calmly, and then stared at the computer on the desk in a daze, as if thinking about something.

After    finished the report, Xu Mei did not leave.

   Zhou Yang brought her in just now, and specially reviewed the report, obviously preparing something.

   "Let the finance come over."

   "Okay, Mr. Zhou, you are..."

   "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, so I should send some gifts, but after thinking about it for a long time, I am not a person who can give gifts. After thinking about it for a long time, let's just be conventional."

   "Conventional point?"

   "Well... you can count the company's list and give it to me later."

"it is good."

   Watching Zhou Yang racking his brains for a long time, he finally sighed faintly, looking very distressed, Xu Mei's face was full of doubts.

   But then, she nodded and left the office.

  After Xu Mei left the office, Zhou Yang suddenly thought of the scene of that year, when Zhang Genshui carried a lot of money to the mountain to share money with everyone during the filming of "The Bottom of the Mine".

   He suddenly felt so nostalgic.

   However, the knock on the door quickly interrupted his thoughts.

   "Mr. Zhou..."

   "Well, Miss Song?"

   "I wrote another song for the album "The Farthest Distance", do you want to listen to it? Pure music, no lyrics yet..."

   "Oh, wrote another song?"

"Yes."

"are you OK?"

   "Very good, I've been full of inspiration recently."

  In the office.

   Zhou Yang was a little shocked when he saw Song Qianqian who pushed in the door.

  Song Qianqian's eyes were bloodshot, her face was terribly pale, and her whole body looked extremely haggard, as if she hadn't slept for more than ten days.

   Zhou Yang took the CD that Song Qianqian handed over, and then played the new song "Insomnia" on the CD. The moment he clicked on it, he heard a melody that was extremely low and full of despair.

   He listened to the melody silently. After the low melody revealed despair, as if he was in deep darkness and unable to extricate himself, the rhythm began to become more and more depressing...

After listening to   , his originally calm mood instantly sank into a trough, there was a feeling of being out of breath, and it took a long time for him to recover.

"This song is so sad. It doesn't seem to match the tone of the entire album... This song makes people feel a little tired of the world. What happened to you recently? How could you write such a desperate tune?" Zhou Yang worriedly Looking at Song Qianqian, he had never heard such a sad melody in his previous life and in this life.

"I'm fine, Mr. Zhou. If it can make you feel hopeless, then I've succeeded! As long as you fill in the lyrics of the last song for the new album "The Farthest Distance", it will be perfect!" Song Qianqian saw Zhou Yang's reaction He smiled and looked satisfied, then took back the CD and left the office on his own.

   Zhou Yang looked at Song Qianqian's back...

  Since the album "Sunshine", Zhou Yang has always felt that Song Qianqian is inexplicably bewildered.

   Then, he carefully recalled Song Qianqian's eyes when he looked at him just now, and the word "weird" appeared in Zhou Yang's mind instantly.

   Immediately after…

He subconsciously took out a few song samples from Song Qianqian's new album "The Farthest Distance" from the drawer. After listening carefully for a while, he vaguely felt that the melody and lyrics of each song in this album seemed to What secrets are hidden, but after looking for it for a long time, he has not been able to find any secrets in this album.

   In the end, he no longer struggled with anything.

  ………………

  Han Yan felt that something was wrong with An Xiao's parents, her aunt and uncle.

During the chat, whenever she talked about her boyfriend George and how good George was, the aunt and uncle showed some expressions of anticipation and regret, and then unconsciously talked about Zhou Yang, From time to time, he stuck his head out and looked outside, as if expecting Zhou Yang to come to the door earlier.

  Han Yan did not understand.

  George, the proud disciple of the internationally renowned piano artist Mr. Perasia!

   The people he contacts are either upper-class celebrities or those noble music performers, which is not an internationally famous existence?

  Why do they think that Zhou Yang, the director of the film, can make some constructive comments for George's music "Wedding"?

   The two sides don't talk about status, but the artistic taste is really too far apart, right?

   Don't my aunt and uncle understand the status of Perasia's proud disciple in the international music circle?

  No, my aunt and uncle still like music. When I was a child, I often took them to major concerts to listen to songs. Not to mention their artistic appreciation ability, I should know more about the status of a character like Perasia, right?

   "Why does aunt and uncle like Zhou Yang so much?"

"do not know…"

  Han Yan couldn't help but ask her cousin An Xiao, but An Xiao shook her head coldly.

   It's afternoon.

  An Zhibin and Tang Xiao came with gifts.

   The two of them are undoubtedly the most popular of the relatives in the entire compound. As soon as they entered the gate, a group of young people greeted them.

   They are getting married next month, and the time is also set on October 1st, which is a national celebration day, which is a big happy event for the entire compound.

  Han Yan also brought George to greet them and introduced each other.

Han Yan found that although Tang Xiao and An Zhibin were very enthusiastic about them, the enthusiasm seemed to belong to the kinship between the two parties, but they did not seem to be interested in George's works and his international musical status, even When Han Yan talked about how George would play for the wedding of the two and would most likely compose "Wedding March", Tang Xiao just smiled politely.

  George's identity seems a little insignificant in this big family.

   "Xiao Zhou will also come over later. At that time, let George and Xiao Zhou chat more and learn more... It will help George's creation. Xiao Zhou has deep attainments in music and art..."

   "Huh? This..."

   Tang Xiao's words made Han Yan stunned again.

   On the other hand, the expression on George's face was a little bit unsustainable. Although he wore a gentleman's smile, his heart was hit hard.

   He thought that this time he came to China, he should be one of the high-profile ones, but no one could have imagined that when he got off the airport, he found that everything seemed different from what he imagined.

"Isn't Zhou Yang a director? It's true that he can create music, but...why do they think I'm chatting with Zhou Yang, and Zhou Yang can provide me with constructive advice? Don't they know the difference between me and Zhou Yang? I know him I have written the song "My Motherland", and I admit that this song is also very good... But, I am studying classical music, and I am international. No matter how good Zhou Yang is, he is only a Chinese, right? They Are they brainwashed by Zhou Yang, or do they have no artistic aesthetics?"

  George pulled Han Yan into the corner and complained a little resentfully.

   "That's not the case. They don't know you or your future situation. When the famous musicians from Huaxia come over, they will know your weight..."

  Han Yan was patient, and after comforting George a few words, the expression on her face began to hang.

   When it was three o'clock in the afternoon, several musicians from the Huaxia Music Association also came over, including flute master Zhou Hongwei, suona master Tong Yuan, and erhu master Zhang Zunlian.

  Han Yan was very familiar with these people. After seeing them, she took George to greet them excitedly.

"Teacher Zhou!"

   "Xiao Han? Hello, haha, long time no see..."

   "Mr. Zhou, how are you, let me introduce you, this is my senior brother George..."

   "Haha, hello Mr. George, last year, I listened to your piano recital "Summer in France", it was wonderful..."

   "Haha, okay, okay!"

  The somewhat gloomy George immediately became excited when he saw Zhou Hongwei, a Chinese flute master, looking at him with enthusiasm and shaking his hand.

   Sure enough, only people in China who really understand music know my status in the music industry!

   Then he greeted Tong Yuan and Zhang Zunlian one by one, tried to listen to what Han Yan said, and remained humble to these people. His appearance made several people very enthusiastic about him...

   But they talked about Vienna, about music performances, and about symphony.

George couldn't help but felt a little overwhelmed, and Han Yan also introduced the "Wedding" he was creating just right. Although on the surface, he hoped to get some advice from a few people, but subtly revealed the teacher Perasia's opinion on "Wedding". The tone is much appreciated…

   When these Chinese musicians heard this, they all began to admire and expressed their desire to listen to the prelude to "Wedding"!

  George was very kind, so naturally he was surrounded and sat on the edge of the piano, but before he started to play, he noticed that the musicians seemed to be looking at the door again.

Then…

   "Yo, Xiao Zhou is here!"

   "Haha, Xiao Zhou is here and late."

   "Xiao Zhou..."

   "Have you completed those songs recently?"

"Ha ha…"

  George noticed that these people were walking towards the door in unison.

   And the hand he was about to play the piano was hanging in the air, so embarrassed that he didn't know if he should drop it...
