What business is it of yours, the actor?
Sometimes, even the actors' faces can be edited out.
Therefore, Qiao Jingjing wasn't very enthusiastic about this matter.
At this point, the other party on the phone said, "No need. If you have a song, record a demo and send it over first. Once you confirm you want it, we can talk about other things."
Mo Xiangwan ended the call abruptly, and said with a pout:
"The crew of the Legend of Sword and Fairy drama said they wanted to commission a song from you. But they didn't say it was a must, they said they wanted us to record a demo for them."
"Then just ignore them."
Qiao Jingjing buried her head in her food, her little mouth glistening with oil.
It's impossible for her to ask her brother for songs just because someone needs them.
Qiao Yu is willing, but she isn't.
Zhang Yutong's previous work, "Misplaced Time and Space," had already caused her some heartache and regret.
"However, this topic is quite popular, so it would be great if you could ride the wave of popularity."
"Besides, it's a drama you directed, so I'm afraid it will have a negative impact if we don't handle it."
Looking at Qiao Jingjing's indifferent expression, Mo Xiangwan continued:
"As you know, a celebrity's popularity comes not only from their work, but also from some entertainment gossip."
"That's why many celebrities have their companies or studios buy news. For example, a certain unscrupulous browser keeps publishing shocking news all the time."
"When someone wears this dress, men are speechless and women are envious. For example, the most beautiful woman in period costume isn't actually her, but someone else. It's all about paying for hype."
Qiao Jingjing rolled her eyes: "It's been two years since the drama 'Chinese Paladin Romance' was filmed, right? I've almost forgotten what it was about?"
For various reasons, this drama has not been released since it was filmed.
It's been dragged on until now...
Qiao Jingjing was somewhat dissatisfied.
Mo Xiangwan shook her head. "Isn't it just a love story that happens because of a magical sword?"
Qiao Jingjing said, "Well, I do have one."
What songs do you sing?
Mo Xiangwan then asked.
She remembered that Qiao Jingjing's songs were all written by Qiao Yu.
He didn't even tell his brother, and it already happened?
Qiao Jingjing didn't answer. Instead, she opened Weibo, and on a whim, posted a message:
What do you think about the "Chinese Paladin" drama crew asking you to sing a song? @趴下
She feels she now has a deep understanding of hype techniques.
At the same time, I finally understand why those celebrities like to use Weibo all the time, even for selfies.
However, Qiao Yu's Weibo account remained calm.
He did not respond to his sister's request at all.
Immediately, Qiao Jingjing's fans replied:
[Did the production team of "Chinese Paladin" contact Qiao Jingjing to commission a song?]
[Haha, you really looked for it?]
[Da Jingjing, your brother is ignoring you.]
[This is embarrassing.]
I'm afraid of the sudden silence.
That really hurts, bro.
This is the most embarrassing Weibo post I've ever seen.
Please be mindful of your words; avoid pointless comments. Just say "666" (a Chinese internet slang for "awesome").
My goddess is still so funny; I'm still watching that video.
Qiao Yu was fast asleep at that moment.
The day was spent first accompanying Sang Zhi to teach and answer her questions, and then Xia Qing called him to coax her to sleep.
This completely exhausted him to the point that he masturbated seven times a night.
When he woke up, he immediately saw a notification on his phone that he had seen Qiao Jingjing's Weibo account.
To prevent a recurrence of the photobook incident.
He turned on the notification.
Get lost.
He replied on Weibo.
Screw you, I feel completely drained, I don't have time to mess around with you.
I tossed my phone aside and went back to sleep.
office.
Qiao Jingjing saw her brother's reply.
It instantly rose to the top of the list of netizens' comments, and fans made all sorts of jokes about it.
She curled her lips.
It's okay if Qiao Yu doesn't interact with her.
Anyway, there are already songs available.
She didn't mean for Qiao Yu to write another song.
Qiao Jingjing pulled a sheet of music from her desk drawer.
It was written to her by Qiao Yu a long time ago.
She didn't need it, so she kept it.
"Sister Xiangwan, contact the sound engineer, I want to record a demo."
...
The cast and crew of the Legend of Sword and Fairy series.
In just half a day, the crew had already collected several songs.
There are quite a few people in the entertainment industry who make a living this way.
There are quite a few talented people among them.
Every songwriter creates a wide variety of songs.
It's not that I only compose music when I get an order; I just jot down a few lines whenever I have an inspiration.
Like painters and writers.
If someone wants a song, and we happen to have a suitable "stock" of it.
They can be sold immediately.
The director instructed, "Those who don't have a demo, go record one. Those who have music but no lyrics, find someone to write lyrics. Let's take it slow and pick a better song."
The music director clicked his tongue and said, "Two of them are alright, the others are so-so, and some are even worse than our current song."
The director added, "If you think it won't work, just pass it over."
The music director said, "Changing the songs was too hasty. Good songs don't just appear out of nowhere."
"These are all. I guess most of them are older works that just happened to be brought out."
"You can't find one that fits the TV series."
"My suggestion is to find a more upbeat melody and a good lyricist to write lyrics that fit the theme of our TV series."
The director looked very frustrated: "Try to be as fast as possible, within half a month before the release. If it's too late, the public opinion will have already been set, and it will be useless."
Music Director: "Let's try our best. Let's finalize the score first. This piece sounds alright, it's one of the best. It was sent over by Qiao Jingjing."
"No, this is a piece that Teacher Han wrote last year."
"Which one is Qiao Jingjing's?" the music director asked. "That shouldn't be the case. Her brother is known for his quick writing. Even if there was a rush, the piece he wrote shouldn't be too bad."
The director shook his head: "She didn't send any songs over. Look at Qiao Jingjing's Weibo, her brother said 'Get lost,' he's not happy to write songs for us."
"Pity."
The music director sighed.
The music director was very selective.
I finally decided to use Teacher Han's melody, and then I started looking for lyricists.
A female staff member came in, leading a beautiful, mature woman, and said:
"Director, Qiao Jingjing's agent is looking for you."
The director was taken aback, then he and the music director went to greet them.
Mo Xiangwan wore a professional smile. "Director Zhu, it's been a long time. I'm here to deliver some samples."
"mock up?"
The director was a bit confused.
Mo Xiangwan nodded.
The music director added, "Qiao Jingjing's song?"
Mo Xiangwan nodded again.
"Didn't you say you didn't want to write it?" the director wondered.
