Chapter 629 Cui Peng
Others may not know how good the relationship between Lu Wantang and Zhou Ming is, but as Chang Yun's assistant, how could he not know?
It is possible that Zhou Ming treated Lu Wantang as his own granddaughter.
Otherwise, he wouldn't call or video chat every two days, and he wouldn't be particularly concerned about Lu Wantang's performance in school, career development, etc., and would give some suggestions from time to time.
Chang Yun was occasionally curious about how Lu Wantang, a person who was usually extremely stable, had no lively and cheerful vibe of a junior, and looked particularly aloof, could win the favor of the old man.
Could it be because of talent?
Or maybe they really hit it off?
Chang Yun, who couldn't figure it out, looked more and more inquiring.
Lu Wantang glanced sideways: "Is there any problem?"
She thought the other party was surprised that Zhou Ming was willing to help, so she explained:
"My original intention was to invite Mr. Cui to be the lead singer. His previous works contain many Cantonese songs, and my two new songs are both in Cantonese."
"So I sent the lyrics and music directly to Grandpa Zhou. Before I even asked, Grandpa Zhou offered to help me contact Teacher Cui."
"Then it was done." Chang Yun took over the conversation.
"Ah."
Lu Wantang didn't feel anything was wrong.
Chang Yun raised his eyebrows: "Mr. Zhou is so good to you, I wouldn't be surprised if he said he would give you part of his family property one day!"
It was obvious that he was joking.
But Lu Wantang just turned his head to look at Chang Yun, blinked, and did not respond.
Chang Yun suddenly choked on his saliva. "Could it be true? Did Mr. Zhou really say that? Was he joking or...?"
Lu Wantang was amused by his reaction: "I'm not kidding, Grandpa Zhou did say something similar, but there's a prerequisite. He wants me to recognize him as a godparent."
In this way, Lu Wantang can be considered half a member of the Zhou family. Once Zhou Ming speaks, it will be useless for others to object.
Chang Yun was shocked by the news and was speechless.
After a long while, he stammered, "I-I thought you two were just ordinary friends regardless of age, and at most Mr. Zhou admired your creative ability... I didn't expect that he would even have such thoughts."
Zhou Ming's property is no small amount.
You know, this must also include the copyright of all the works he created throughout his life!
You can tell with your toes how much it is worth.
"Have you agreed? Probably not? Otherwise, we would definitely need to hold a formal recognition banquet."
"I'm not short of money now, so there's no need to get involved in trouble just for money."
What's more, if she agreed directly, she didn't know what Zhou Ming would think. The affection between them was limited, so it would be best for them to be friends regardless of age difference.
Lu Wantang couldn't be more sober.
Chang Yun was half impressed and half relieved: "Well, this is something you can say."
If Lu Wantang was a money-minded person, Tangxing Entertainment would not have the harmonious atmosphere it has today.
"Okay, let's stop talking about this."
Lu Wantang handed over the Bluetooth headset next to him.
"Listen to these two songs first."
Chang Yun put on the headphones as he was told.
His expression quickly changed from thoughtful, to a slight frown, to a look of admiration.
"It's really different. It's completely different from any martial arts-themed songs I've ever heard!"
"Also, Ye Xin and Cui Peng's voices are so in sync! These two songs seem like they were tailor-made for them!"
Chang Yun was very excited.
More confident about the upcoming promotion.
----
The time came to Saturday.
The news that Chen Yubai would participate in "Voice of Xizhou" was revealed two days ago.
The program team took the opportunity to do a lot of publicity, using the song "See you again" to send a signal of friendly communication with other continents.
This news was on the hot search for a whole day.
At the same time, "Xizhou Singer" also announced the participation of contestants from other continents, with one contestant from each of the three continents of East, South and North.
Even the promotions of the two programs are at odds with each other. Until today, there are still "suspected" leaked news, making the other three continents more and more looking forward to the broadcast of these two programs.
However, at nine o'clock in the morning, a new topic appeared on the hot search list of the Weibo platform, which is already interconnected in the four continents.
Tangxing Martial Arts Drama
Theme song of The Legend of the Condor Heroes released
What is martial arts?
Several related topics appeared on the list in succession, attracting great attention.
For the people of Sanzhou, they remembered that Lu Wantang once said in an interview that Tang Xing’s future plan was to shoot several martial arts dramas in a row.
They thought Lu Wantang might be joking, or would back down, but they actually filmed it?!
[It's been so long, I almost forgot what Zigui said about filming several martial arts dramas in a row]
[To be honest, I kind of want to see it, but I’m also afraid of being fed that shit]
[Why not listen to the song first to see if it’s good?]
[So you're not going to watch it just because the song is good? After all, as the saying goes, even bad movies have great hits?]
[That’s not entirely true. The dramas currently produced by Tangxing are actually pretty good.]
……
Most netizens in Sanzhou are taking a wait-and-see attitude.
For the people of Xizhou, they are more curious about what "martial arts" is. They are very interested in it, and seeing that the forum is full of pessimistic views makes them even more curious.
At the beginning, topics related to martial arts dramas were "on the rise" and once occupied the top of the hot search list.
Later on, the theme song became more and more popular.
This is all thanks to the increasing number of song plays on music platforms.
Zheng Yu is a well-known music critic in Nanzhou and a loyal fan of Zigui. When he saw the notification that composer Zigui's new work was online early this morning, he immediately clicked on the platform.
When he clicked on it, the song's simultaneous playback volume hadn't exceeded 100.
Zheng Yu has actually listened to many songs from martial arts dramas.
Ever since he learned that Tangxing Entertainment was going to produce several martial arts dramas, he thought that they would definitely produce related themes in the music field.
So I went to find out in advance.
It would have been better if he didn't know this in advance, he still had full confidence in Zigui.
After learning about it, his expectations dropped by at least 70%.
Not only do the songs in those martial arts dramas not match the style, some dramas are simply shoddy and it's completely unclear what the highlights are, so the songs are used to set off the show quite well, but even so, you still can't tell what they have to do with "martial arts".
The early martial arts dramas were pretty good, but there were too many fighting scenes, the stories were rather clichéd, and they were a bit aesthetically tiring to watch. The corresponding theme songs and interludes still had those obvious problems.
Zigui... shouldn't fail on this, right?
Thinking of the "ancient style songs" created by Zigui, Zheng Yu felt that the problem was not big.
Martial arts stories are basically set in ancient times, so music with an "ancient style" or a style close to "ancient style" should be very suitable.
With a slightly uneasy feeling, Zheng Yu clicked the play button.
