I Really Didn’t Want to Be the Savior Chapter 103: Sci-Fi Movie
In short, Chen Feng has developed.
Although it is not comparable to billionaires, it is not long before the personal net worth exceeds eight figures.
Recently, the growth of house prices has slowed down and has entered a steady decline. Chen Feng is not in a hurry to buy a house.
Even if you want to buy it, you have to wait for more money to buy a luxury house in one step. At present, this part of the money is not enough.
In addition, he has no desire to consume now, and he has to pay taxes from the company's account to the individual, so he simply leaves all the money to the company to maintain daily expenses and prepare for the next expansion.
The company is growing so fast that Chen Feng, the good-for-nothing shopkeeper, has to be busy.
Meng Xiaozhou needs to learn to adapt to the industry. As a professional manager, he also needs to understand the management style of Chen Feng at the helm.
Only with a tacit understanding, can Meng Xiaozhou know what things Chen Feng doesn't care about and don't need to report them individually. Those things are very important and must be reported in time.
Although Chen Feng wanted Meng Xiaozhou to take care of everything, he had to give Meng Xiaozhou enough time to adjust, so he was also caught up in many affairs.
On the contrary, Ou Junlang, the grandson thief lived the most nourishing life.
Unlike ordinary artists, Fatty is too lazy to contact any brand endorsements, let alone commercial performances.
In Fatty's original words, it's very true.
"I'm just starting out now, what are you doing with these jobs? Can it make me sing better? Can it improve my reputation? No, it can only consume my influence. These endorsement resources are too poor, Master Look at this thermal underwear, it's only 1 million a year, and it's not as much as the pocket money my dad gave me. It's not that I don't accept endorsements at all, but I have to wait for me to become more popular, and I need top resources from the beginning."
So this product is under the guise of album promotion. In fact, it is flying around the country to play in the mountains and water.
From time to time on a TV show, he brags about his master's beef, and from time to time he appears on music radio, or brags about his master's beef. In short, it's very pleasant.
However, he said that on this day, Chen Feng finally read the quarterly income and expenditure budget statement that Meng Xiaozhou asked the finance department to do. He wanted to get rid of it, but the office door was pushed open by Meng Xiaozhou.
"Mr. Chen, there is a very important cooperation here."
Chen Feng frowned, "Manager Meng, if someone else wants to send us money for cooperation, you can just accept it, don't ask me."
"No. That's the way it is. Hollywood director Neil Brokamp personally called and said he wanted to use "Bath of Fire" as the theme song for his movie."
Chen Feng was stunned for a moment, and tapped his fingers on the keyboard to find out the information.
He rubbed his chin and said: "The investment of this sci-fi film is 150 million US dollars, which is the production standard of A-level films."
Meng Xiaozhou said excitedly: "Yes, this is our opportunity. If we can successfully reach a cooperation, our company can enter the European and American markets. I thought this day would come sooner or later, but I didn't expect it so soon." /
Chen Feng said in his heart that I didn't expect it, but he kept his face calm and asked, "But isn't it said that it will be released next month? Then the production should have been completed by now. Didn't finalize the theme song? Impossible."
"The specific situation is like this..."
After hearing what Meng Xiaozhou said, Chen Feng understood.
This Neil Brokamp is a man of temperament and a tough guy.
His new sci-fi blockbuster "Chaos Space" has indeed been completed and will be released soon.
But just yesterday, after listening to the song "Bathing Fire", although he could not understand the language, he could hear the charm behind the song, and was certain that this was the theme song he had always dreamed of.
So he temporarily increased the budget, rejected the original theme song, and turned to Star Peak Entertainment for cooperation.
"The other party's specific request is that they want to rewrite the lyrics of "Bath of Fire" and adapt it to an English version. They will invite Katie Swift to sing. The one-time licensing fee is one million US dollars, and subsequent dividends will be distributed. The details are in this fax contract."
Meng Xiaozhou handed over a contract in English.
Chen Feng said that he couldn't understand it, and he was too lazy to read it.
Then he fell into deep thought.
"Bath of Fire" is not available in English, only in Chinese.
At least in the timeline Chen Feng has experienced so far.
So it was difficult for him to fill in the words.
But he is not very willing to fake this matter, and if he creates a poor English version of "Bathing Fire" and interferes with the realm of the song itself, it is a bit of a loss.
"In this way, I'll ask Zhong Lei to see if she's interested. After all, English is not my native language, and I didn't write the lyrics of "Bath of Fire". If I came to adapt the words, it was inevitable that the words would not express their meaning and lack charm."
Zhong Lei quickly gave the answer.
She thinks it is feasible. Her English is not bad, but she needs the cooperation of the other singer.
Chen Feng immediately made a decision, "Okay, then I'll take it!"
In view of Chen Feng's self-consciousness that he is not good at negotiation, especially the language barrier in the negotiation of transnational cooperation, he entrusted Meng Xiaozhou with full responsibility for this matter.
Zhong Lei rushed to Chen Feng's office when Meng Xiaozhou held a formal conference call on behalf of Chen Feng.
The two discussed for a long time about translating the lyrics, but nothing came of it.
The phonetic symbols and pronunciations of English and Chinese are completely different, and the control of rhythm and rhythm when composing lyrics is very different, making it difficult to adapt.
If you want to keep the original meaning of the original lyrics, it is difficult to create the same level of English lyrics.
Zhong Lei said: "First of all, we have to consider the pronunciation habits of foreign language singers. If it is not possible, sacrifice the original meaning of the lyrics and let Katie Swift lead the adaptation and fill in the lyrics."
Chen Feng shook his head, "It's not right."
"Why?" Zhong Lei actually wanted to say that the original author of her lyrics doesn't mind ~IndoMTL.com~ Just be generous. I believe in the level of international superstars, Sister Guomei is still very powerful.
Chen Feng doesn't explain, just doesn't agree.
Only he knew the importance of the song "Bath of Fire".
There will be two versions of "Burning Fire" in the future, which is a very complicated situation.
It's not that one plus one equals two.
It is very likely that the two versions will cancel each other out, and in the end, one plus one will be less than two, making "Bath of Fire" lose its magic and fail to become a military anthem.
"Forget it, let's put this aside. Let's talk about my new song."
The conversation could not come to a conclusion, so Zhong Lei changed the subject.
Chen Feng was slightly startled, "Has the recording of "Self Burning" been completed?"
"Yes! As long as you approve, it will be available on the shelves this afternoon! This is my first complete song as your singer!"
Chen Feng swallowed, "It's really fast."
"No matter how fast I am, I am not one-tenth as fast as you. Listen first?"
Zhong Lei took Chen Feng to the newly built recording studio, and asked him to put on the special monitoring earphones for recording and the consumer-grade Emperor Daao earphones to listen to them.
Daao "borrowed" from Ou Junlang's recording studio. There are only a few complete systems in the whole country, and he doesn't plan to return it.
"How? Give me some comments?" Zhong Lei looked at Chen Feng expectantly.
Chen Feng's previous comments on "Bath of Fire" were too penetrating. Every sentence was insightful and insightful through the phenomenon. There are also many Zhong Lei who have never heard of it, but just listen to it and know the new music theory that makes perfect sense.
Zhong Lei was amazed and admired Chen Feng's music appreciation ability.
Therefore, she attaches great importance to Chen Feng's opinion.
Chen Feng avoided her expectant eyes and made a thoughtful organizational language.
