When Chen Feng heard the news, of course he was a little gloating. Tianhe was doing his own evil and was unpopular, forcing away the leading actress.
Of course, Chen Feng must have played a very important role in this. If Chen Feng had not privately agreed to accept her and promised to tailor songs for her in the future, Chang Lingyu and Tianhe would not have been so decisive.
"Chang Lingyu really wanted to sign a contract with my company before. I agreed in principle." Chen Feng admitted this matter frankly. Originally, this matter was not a secret. Since Liu Qinfei had already received the news,
It means that the information from Chang Lingyu has been leaked. There is no need to keep it secret anymore.
"Sure enough, there is no smoke without fire. Before, I thought it was just a rumor, but it turned out to be true." Liu Qinfei said with a sigh, "A few months ago, it was hard to imagine that a generation of singers like Chang Lingyu would become as big as Tianhe.
The company jumped to your small company. But now, I have to admire her courage and vision."
Meng Tingting said with some resentment: "Actually, I am also willing to sign a contract with Summit Entertainment, but last time, Mr. Chen, you rejected me."
Liu Qinfei helped: "Chen Feng, since you are willing to accept Chang Lingyu, why can't Sister Tingting accept her?"
Chen Feng said very bluntly: "One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. In addition, Summit Entertainment is so big. It is already a bit difficult to support a diva like Chang Lingyu. If we add Sister Ting, it will definitely be too much. In addition,
It’s just that I have promised Chang Lingyu before that it will be on a first-come, first-served basis, so I can only say sorry to Sister Ting.”
Meng Tingting smiled bitterly and said: "I hesitated at the beginning and took advantage of it. Speaking of which, Mr. Chen is really not to blame."
Liu Qinfei also sighed lightly and said: "Sister Ting has indeed lost the opportunity in this matter. However, Chen Feng, even if you don't want to sign a contract with Sister Ting, you will still continue to write songs for her in the future."
Chen Feng glanced at Meng Tingting lightly, and seeing her looking at him nervously, he said: "If there is a song suitable for her in the future, I will naturally hope that she will sing it. Choose the song, and choose the person for the song."
"Yes, yes." Liu Qinfei nodded repeatedly, "That's what it says. It's the same for me, too. If you write a song suitable for me to sing in the future, you must give it to me."
Chen Feng nodded, agreeing.
Meng Tingting also nodded quickly and said thank you: "Thank you, Mr. Chen."
Chen Feng smiled and said, "You should just call me by my name. Calling me Mr. Chen makes me very uncomfortable."
Liu Qinfei also smiled and said: "Yes. In the past, we all called him by his first name. Sister Ting, please don't go outside."
Meng Tingting laughed happily after hearing this, her expression became much more natural, and she said with a smile: "Then I will call you Chen Feng. I have done something wrong before, so please don't worry about it. I will use this cup
Drinks apologize to you.”
After Meng Tingting finished speaking, she picked up the drink in front of her and drank it down in one gulp.
Chen Feng said politely: "That's not necessary. We are still friends."
"Yes." Meng Tingting said seriously, "I did something wrong before."
"Okay, okay." Liu Qinfei smoothed things over, "Chen Feng is not a stingy person. Since he has said so, you don't have to be too polite."
"In short, I am very grateful to Chen Feng for writing me a song and making me famous again." Speaking of this, Meng Tingting stared at Chen Feng with an emotional expression and said sincerely, "I have never had the opportunity to say this before.
This time I want to tell you face to face that I am really grateful to you."
Seeing her expressing her stance like this, what else could Chen Feng say. After all, he is a soft-hearted person. In addition, there is actually no deep hatred between the two. Before, he just felt that Meng Tingting was a bit supercilious, but now that she has expressed her stance like this,
Both apologizing and grateful, Chen Feng no longer cares about the grudge in his heart.
"Sister Ting, you must not be like this. When I wrote the song for you, you spent real money to buy it. Although there are also human reasons, it is mainly a fair transaction."
Meng Tingting shook her head and said seriously: "No. I know you are not short of money. If it weren't for our previous relationship, you valued me more and would not have given me those good songs at once. Feifei, at the beginning you were just writing
It’s just a song. So, I owe you a huge debt for this favor. I don’t know how to repay it to you in the future.”
Liu Qinfei pouted at the side, pretending to be dissatisfied and said: "Yes. At the beginning, you only wrote one song for me, but you wrote 5 songs for Sister Ting. The difference in treatment is too obvious."
Chen Feng said very calmly: "The time you gave me was limited and very full. You asked me to write a song temporarily. I can write a song suitable for you to sing. It is already very good. As for Sister Ting, I have a lot of time."
After all, if you have plenty of money, it will naturally be easier for you to write.”
"Okay. Your explanation makes sense. However, I will release a record next year at the latest, so I will ask you to sing in advance. By then, you will write at least 5 songs for me. Is that okay?"
Chen Feng shook his head and refused: "I am very busy now, so it is possible to write so many songs for you. Besides, song writing depends on inspiration. Even if you have inspiration to write it, it may not be suitable for you to sing. So, I
I can’t guarantee that I’ll write five songs for you. I can only guarantee two songs at most.”
Although there are many songs suitable for Liu Qinfei to sing in the music library that Chen Feng has reserved, it is impossible to give her five songs or more songs at once. Favors are not given like this. More importantly, in fact,
They are just ordinary friends with each other, and so far, only Liu Qinfei owes him a favor, not him.
In addition, she is not from her own company, but is a signed singer from a rival company. Chen Feng is not stupid, so how could he continue to write songs for her without any reservation?
If there are extra songs, Chen Feng might as well use them to train female singers in his company in the future.
"It's not interesting for you to be like this." Liu Qinfei said with a look of dissatisfaction, "It's not even June yet. My new album will probably start recording in December this year at the earliest. I still have half a year for you, so you just
It’s too stingy to guarantee two songs.”
Chen Feng was unmoved and said calmly: "I have a lot of things to do now. I have a company in China and a company abroad. I have to write scripts and make movies. In addition, I have to pay for the two people I signed with the United States.
It is very rare for a female singer to create an album and take the time to write two songs that satisfy you. Besides, singing is not your main job, so there is no need for you to spend too much time and energy on this."
Liu Qinfei said depressedly: "Singing is now my main job. Who makes me not have good film appointments? I can only further develop in the music industry first. Since I want to develop, I definitely want to make something famous. Only before you
The song "Tell You Softly" that you wrote for me is too little as a masterpiece. Even if you add the two songs you promised, it will only be three songs, which is not much. Best, you can do it next
Write five songs for me too, so I will have six masterpieces."
"You think my songs just come out of my mouth." Chen Feng rolled his eyes at her, "Besides, they have to be tailor-made for you and suitable for you to sing. Unless I don't do anything else and just focus on it every day.
Write a song for you."
Liu Qinfei pursed her lips and said, "Then 4 songs are enough, right? I know you can write them."
Chen Feng was a little dissatisfied and said: "If you keep talking, both songs will be gone."
When Liu Qinfei heard this, she immediately made a gesture of surrender: "Okay. Just two songs. I'm afraid of you."
Meng Tingting laughed and said: "Feifei, just be satisfied. Chen Feng is really a busy man now, and he is also a big boss. He has too many things to worry about, and he can still write songs for you in his busy schedule.
, it’s already very good.”
"Okay, okay. I also know that he is really busy. Chen Feng, let me thank you first. Come on, I'll toast you too."
As she spoke, Liu Qinfei also raised her glass to Chen Feng and drank all the drink in the glass in one gulp.
Chen Feng smiled and drank up the drink in his glass. Now Chen Feng is determined not to drink if he can. But Liu Qinfei and Meng Tingting, two women, don't drink much in the first place.
"Chen Feng, do you know that "The Gunslinger" will be released soon?" Liu Qinfei suddenly asked.
After Chen Feng was stunned for a moment, he remembered that "The Gunslinger" was the first TV series he filmed, and it was the one in which Liu Qinfei was the heroine.
"It hasn't been released yet?" Chen Feng asked in surprise.
Liu Qinfei couldn't help rolling her eyes when she heard this, and said angrily: "Are you too careless about this TV series? At any rate, you also have a supporting role in it."
Chen Feng was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and said to himself, I will play a small supporting role in this anti-war drama for only two or three episodes. Do I care that much? I have 4 movies coming out, and this one is yours.
The TV series hasn’t been released yet? It’s true.
"Hasn't this TV series been produced a long time ago? Why is it not being released until now?" Chen Feng asked the question in his heart.
Liu Qinfei did not delve into Chen Feng's lack of interest, but instead explained: "This TV series is adapted from a novel. The novel itself was controversial. Later, we filmed it, although it was
A certain adaptation, but there is still a lot of controversy over this TV series, and there is even more debate in the film review committee. Later, it was re-edited many times, so it has been delayed until now before it was finally approved for release.
.”
Chen Feng nodded suddenly and asked: "When will it be released?"
Liu Qinfei replied: "We have signed a contract with Huaidong Satellite TV and it will be screened on July 2. At that time, you'd better promote it on Weibo."
"Okay." Chen Feng agreed happily. Although he has now become a big star and even a world-class director, one can never forget his roots. When he was filming "The Gunslinger", Wang Weidong was also very kind to him.
He had the kindness of knowing someone, although it actually had no effect on his subsequent development.
"Director Wang Weidong, do you have any new works recently?" Chen Feng asked casually.
Liu Qinfei said with some emotion: "Originally, he wanted to make a martial arts movie. I heard that he has been polishing the script for two or three years. But you also know that martial arts movies have declined now. Not only movies, but also TV
I rarely see any martial arts dramas on TV. After all, they have been broadcast for more than ten years, and everyone is tired of watching them. Therefore, they have never attracted investment. And he no longer bothers to make ordinary TV dramas, so he has never
What new shooting project?"
Chen Feng knows something about this. After all, the content quality of martial arts novels in the Tang Dynasty is not very good in this parallel time and space. There is no ancient dragon Jin Yong in Chen Feng's original time and space, and there is no Huang Yi and Liang Yusheng. At most, they are Wo Longsheng and Shangguan Qingyun in the original time and space.
level. And it was already twenty or thirty years ago. Those relatively classic martial arts novels have been remade many times, and of course the audience is tired of them.
"If you just replace the old bottle with new wine, there is no market for martial arts movies. If you invest money in it, you will lose 90% of the time." Chen Feng said very pertinently.
Liu Qinfei nodded in approval and said: "That's true. However, I haven't read Director Wang's martial arts script yet, so I don't know if it's an old bottle with new wine. Maybe there are some innovations."
Chen Feng shook his head and said: "If you don't have a superb literary mind, I think it will be difficult."
What Chen Feng said is quite fair. Just like in the original time and space, if Jin Yong and Gu Long, two amazingly talented and groundbreaking martial arts novelists, had not appeared, martial arts novels would not have had such a great impact.
strength and vitality.
Liu Qinfei couldn't help but curl her lips slightly when she heard this. She thought to herself, Wang Weidong is at least your senior, and it's really unjust for you to say that. However, her relationship with Wang Weidong is not very close, so there is no need to say anything fair for him.
In fact, Chen Feng's achievements have far surpassed Wang Weidong's. From this point of view, Chen Feng is qualified to judge Wang Weidong, an old senior.
"That's it. I used to like martial arts novels when I was young, but then I read them too many times. They were all the same and there was no innovation, so I didn't bother to read them anymore." Meng Tingting finally interjected.
Liu Qinfei looked at Chen Feng with a hint of teasing and said: "I remember you said you were writing a script for a TV series before. What is the theme? Otherwise, you might as well write an innovative martial arts theme."
Chen Feng laughed and said: "What a coincidence. My TV series script is about martial arts."
"real or fake?"
Both women couldn't help but widen their eyes.
Chen Feng nodded and said: "Of course it's true. This is my innovation and attempt at martial arts dramas. I hope it won't disappoint anyone once it's filmed."
After hearing this, Liu Qinfei couldn't help but confirm again: "Are you really not joking?"
"No." After Chen Feng finished speaking, he looked her up and down and said, "If you are willing, I can leave you a second female role. However, the salary will be halved."
Liu Qinfei said speechlessly: "You are too cruel. The salary is halved, and you are still only the second female lead. Can I eat enough?"
Chen Feng said with a serious face: "If you believe me, you will definitely not suffer a loss when this TV series is filmed in the future. It will definitely bring your fame to a higher level."
Liu Qinfei knew Chen Feng's character, so she couldn't help but become serious after hearing this, and asked: "Who are you going to let play the female lead?"
