Chen Haodao: "You don't have to be so frustrated. This song is not good. Just change it and participate in the competition."
Fang Wenfei smiled bitterly and said: "I can only sing this song."
Chen Hao said: "Why?"
Fang Wenfei said: "I composed this myself, no other song will work."
Chen Hao was surprised and said: "Why is the singing competition so demanding?
You can only sing songs that you create."
Fang Wenfei sighed and said listlessly: "I can't explain my affairs to you, so you don't need to ask.
Give me your WeChat account and I will transfer you two thousand yuan, and you can go."
She is a member of the Genesis 808 girl group, the most popular talent show in China in recent years. After several months of competition in the entertainment industry, she finally debuted in third place.
But in fact, after her debut, Fang Wenfei has become the most popular and has the most fans. It can be said that she is extremely popular.
However, Fang Wenfei is positioned as a traffic star.
What is a traffic star?
To put it bluntly, they are stars promoted by capital.
Popular celebrities are basically handsome men and beautiful women. They are very popular. No matter where they go, they are the focus of the spotlight. Their popularity is even higher than that of many famous actors.
However, because traffic stars rise too fast and accumulate too little, most people have a fatal flaw: lack of professional ability.
As an artist, you must be proficient in singing, dancing, acting, variety shows, folk arts... in order to please the audience and have a long artistic life.
However, traffic stars are not good at everything. Apart from acting cool, taking various beautiful photos, and creating hot news, they have almost no other abilities.
So we always see comments on the Internet: A certain star’s acting skills make me feel embarrassed.
If you lack professional skills, you can only rely on capital to burn money behind the scenes, buy hot topics, shoot TV shows, make movies, hold concerts, participate in variety shows and other resources to maintain popularity and increase the number of fans.
Therefore, traffic stars seem to have unlimited glory, but in fact they are deeply at the mercy of capital.
Capital is the contracting company behind them.
The contracting company worked hard to make them famous, not like a school that contributes talents to society for free, but to obtain more returns.
So after you become famous, don't be idle and work for me every day.
Today's party, tomorrow's variety show, the day after tomorrow's business event... running back and forth every day.
In short, as long as you can't run to death, run to death.
Traffic stars have no choice but to follow the company's arrangements and make money for the company.
Because if you don't do it, the company won't praise you, and you won't have resources.
There is no need to hide your company, because your professional skills are not good and you have no works. As long as you do not appear in the public eye for a long time, you will naturally become cold.
If you are ambitious and want to change jobs or go it alone, the company will slap the contract you signed on the table with a penalty of tens of millions, which will make you dumbfounded at the time.
If someone says it, then I will just be honest and obedient.
Anyway, as long as I am obedient, the company will praise me and give me resources.
The company makes a big profit, and I make a small profit, which is also a huge fortune.
It’s good to think this way, but you must know that traffic stars can be replaced.
The most indispensable thing in the entertainment industry is handsome men and beautiful women. The contracted companies will train trainees from generation to generation.
This means that there are always people competing with you, and the company's resources are limited. When someone appears who can make more money than you, even if you are obedient, the company will not hesitate to take away the resources originally given to you.
.
Capital is profit-seeking, and there is no human relationship to talk about. If you lose the surplus value that can be squeezed, capital will abandon you mercilessly.
Moreover, traffic stars thrive on youth. You can become a traffic star in your twenties, but what about in your thirties?
What about forty?
When you reach a certain age, your professional abilities are still insufficient, and your popularity will naturally decline. If you cannot transform, you will have no choice but to disappear.
What's more, the future of traffic stars is in the hands of the company. No matter how excessive the company's demands are, they can only endure it.
Not to mention some bosses or funders who threaten resources and make despicable and disgusting demands.
Fang Wenfei naturally understands this, so she, who graduated from a conservatory of music and has a certain amount of music accumulation, always wants to create her own works.
This gives you confidence and is not restricted by the contracting company.
Moreover, Fang Wenfei also felt that her popularity had not increased for some time and was showing a slight downward trend.
Ever since she refused the request of a big shot in the company to talk about life and ideals with her in a separate room late at night last week, Fang Wenfei was sensitive to the fact that the company's resources invested in her began to decrease.
This Nanjiang University campus celebration party is an obvious example.
In the past, because she had the best singing skills and was the most popular, she would sing the lead vocals on new songs purchased by the company, and then it would be someone else's turn.
But this time, the company gave the new song to Gu Yunhua.
Fang Wenfei can only sing old songs.
Her order of appearance also changed from the original last one to the second to last one.
Gu Yunhua became the last one.
Although the company said nothing, the warning was already obvious.
If Fang Wenfei hadn't become famous right now, I might not even be able to attend Nanjiang University's anniversary party.
So Fang Wenfei was very anxious. The new song she sang to Chen Hao was created bit by bit in her spare time, just to release it at the Nanjiang University celebration party.
As long as the new song is popular and she holds the complete copyright, she will have the capital to talk to the company.
But a good song is not so easy to create. Even if Fang Wenfei has good musical skills and has spent a long time polishing it, it still feels far from ideal.
She originally wanted to arrange the new song by herself, but the company seemed to have noticed something, and asked her agent, makeup artist, assistant, etc. to watch her closely without giving her a chance.
Fang Wenfei was naturally unwilling to be put under house arrest. Not only did she find opportunities to sneak away several times, but she also opened this classroom as a place for singing practice.
Just now, when she was trying to escape again and was about to sneak into the classroom where she was practicing singing, she happened to meet Chen Hao, and the scene happened before.
What's more coincidental is that Chen Hao doesn't even know her.
So Fang Wenfei had an idea and wanted Chen Hao to listen to her new song and express his first impression with the senses of a passerby.
As a result, Chen Hao's evaluation destroyed the last trace of luck in her heart.
Chen Haodao: "Actually, your song is quite smooth as a whole, and the melody is also good. If you adapt it a little bit, even if it doesn't become a classic song, it should still be popular."
Fang Wenfei smiled bitterly and said: "You think I don't want to change?
I have changed it dozens of times, and it makes my head hurt, and now I don’t even know where to start.”
Chen Haodao: "The song you changed dozens of times is like this?
This shows how bad it is."
Fang Wenfei said angrily: "I don't want to listen to you, please leave quickly."
Chen Hao laughed and said: "Just a joke.
For the sake of giving me two thousand yuan, let me help you change it."
