The average temperature in Los Angeles in June does not exceed 23 degrees Celsius. By the pool in the afternoon, the dark little guy was lying in the pool, basking in the sun on the floating bed specially customized by Zhuang Ling - a perfect tan.
It's more comfortable than just picking up water splashes with a small jiojio.
Under the umbrella by the swimming pool, there is Xia Yu's busy figure.
This time I am not typing on the keyboard, but writing by hand. I have been busy for a long time, and it is one piece after another of simple lyrics and music scores.
Album "eight years".
This album is of course not Xia Yu's masterpiece, but an excellent album released by a 21-year-old European and American singer she likes in L-level Parallel World. It is a multi-faceted album - pop, R&B, rock!
Of course, the main focus is alternative rock. The entire album is Xia Yu's favorite. Several of the singles have made Xia Yu's singles cycle for a while, such as "someone like you" and "lovesong".
The high-pitched and hoarse voice of the other soul R&B song "Rolling in the Deep" also made Xia Yu unforgettable. I have to say that this album is absolutely amazing.
Of course, except that this album is the masterpiece of this top L-class parallel time and space female singer after her breakup...
So much so that Xia Yu had to refine some of the lyrics for this album...
But it is very consistent with the title of the album she is about to create for this R-rated world, "eight years".
In particular, Xia Yu combined the song "rolling in the deep" with Brian Zhou's deeds when he was hit eight years ago and was defeated by those scum, and an exclusive song belonging to Brian was born...
After a year or two of getting along, Xia Yu has a great understanding of Brian's voice and the control of his own high notes!
Brian is definitely a pearl in the dust, and he can perfectly control the high and low notes. However, whether this album can be given a higher level of soul still depends on Brian's strength.
Regarding the selection of the third album, Xia Yu also carefully considered it. Among the four albums including "21" and "The Love Album" in the L-level parallel world, he chose "21" after careful consideration.
!
I didn't choose "The Love Album" because the main music of Brian's album "25" is the same type of lyrical ballads. It uses lyrical and nostalgic lyrics to tell the story of finally getting out of the eight-year trough and entering another stage of life.
.
Xia Yu has tasted Brian's "25" album and almost cried when she listened to it - she was very happy to be able to help such a talented "young man" and give him the opportunity to take revenge one by one.
accomplish!
Xia Yu is not optimistic about two albums of the same style. For a singer-songwriter, the style does not have to be changeable, but it cannot stick to one place. Appropriate broadening of the style is conducive to the development of a fan base that loves different styles of music.
!
With the addition of the album "21", it has achieved dazzling results in the higher-level L-class parallel world and won many awards!
This is another issue that Xia Yu considers. Awards and sales are extremely important for a singer-songwriter!
Although it doesn’t require too much, presence or absence is the key to whether mainstream music is recognized or not…
According to Brian's self-planning, his talent Xia Yu knew that even if he no longer provided lyrics and music, he would gradually shine until he shocked the entire Europe, America, and even the global music scene... But obviously, no one knew the specific time!
Xia Yu doesn't have that much time to wait for Brian to step up to the altar and bring her higher profits - she needs Brian to rise quickly within a year or two and become, after the "Twilight Series" is released,
Another huge gimmick!
In other words, Xia Yu wants to send all fans who like to listen to Brian's music into the theater!
And "25" and "eight years" will become the biggest driving force!
Casting for "The Hunger Games Part 1" has ended.
Xia Yu provided basic advice and retained the final choice of the main actors. The rest was left to Ashley and James to finish the job. With their years of experience, they would never make a mistake.
As for the pre-selection of the male lead and the second male lead in "The Hunger Games Series", because Xia Yu's height has reached 176, the casting must be higher than 176, but it doesn't have to be too tall!
The original work, the script, and the setting of living in a slum area. The first male lead and the second male lead both live in the poorest District 12. Even though the first male lead, Peeta Mellark, was born into a relatively wealthy family, his physical condition is still average...
…
Therefore, casting has strict requirements for the actor's body shape - he must be lean, not muscular.
Of course, the acting requirements must also be met, and I have to say that these two candidates are very crucial.
Xia Yu is not one-size-fits-all. If you are not a member who participated in the filming of "Twilight Series", you cannot audition for "The Hunger Games Series". Therefore, in the third round of selecting the male lead and the second male lead, Antonio, Daniel,
Raymond, all participated.
But so far, the three people's impressions of Xia Yu are almost——
Especially for Antonio, the performance lacked the psychological feeling of despair and struggle in life. After all, he has not experienced the test of life on the ground. Everything goes smoothly, and the performance cannot be like that!
As for Daniel and Raymond, Xia Yu is making final considerations, mainly on Xia Yu's side. In addition to having ambitions for Brian to find a way to survive in the European and American music circles, Xia Yu has encountered multiple attacks from Victoria Pictures. Although it failed, Xia Yu
But he became more vigilant and cautious.
Therefore, after many considerations, she decided to make a double attack and planned to break out of the beautiful drama into a film and television career.
Among them, Raymond is the male lead in several beautiful dramas that she is very optimistic about and plans to invest in and film.
At the same time, Xia Yu continued to suppress the gambling agreement and gave Mindelli Pictures an alternative explanation - I will shoot it and sell it to you!
Raymond, who is in his early thirties and has been working hard as a bit player, has a kind of maturity and stability that is not found in young actors in his early twenties, as well as a sense of justice and sophistication that comes from sticking to some principles.
Smooth wisdom...
At the same time, when you are in your early thirties, you are in good condition in all aspects and are less greasy than those in your forties or fifties!
Xia Yu planned to film a beautiful drama at the same time as "The Hunger Games Series". He had also considered it in advance and chose one of the two American dramas.
One is "Westworld" and the other is "Succession". These two American TV series have once set off a craze in the L-level literary and art world!
Of course, for various reasons, it is best to shoot "Succession" first. After all, "Westworld" needs to build a real-life studio and various post-production special effects, which consumes a lot of manpower and material resources...
…
Xia Yu didn't want Mindli Pictures to get involved in this beautiful drama. As for the investment, of course it was Great Wall Film and Television.
