NOVEL WEB Chapter 149 Lao Xie
On Tuesday, Tara's mini-album sales exploded as expected. EHS three people also downloaded Tara's mini-album immediately. Although they did not watch Tara's live broadcast yesterday, they also saw the news in the evening and knew that today Tara will release a new album, and I also know what she said at the press conference. There were two songs originally intended for them, but Tara chose them first. So they also want to hear what the songs of this mini album are.
After quietly enjoying the MVs of Tara's four songs, I listened to "The World Reunion Again" again. S Yan Shasha sighed: "This piece is great."
The other two people said nothing, just watched quietly, and then repeated the song again.
H Ouyang Wenhui also sighed: "Yes, this piece is really great, comparable to "Good Days"."
E Hong Dong'e: "Actually, these four songs are all great, or every song by Tara is very nice. Xia Haoyang probably won't sell works like "Good Days" to us again."
Just like Tara and others think that Xia Haoyang's songs for EHS are better than the songs for themselves, the three EHS people also stubbornly believe that Xia Haoyang's songs for their girl group are better than the songs for themselves.
Is it true that between the two songs "The World We Meet Again" and "Twinkle", one is definitely better than the other, or one is definitely worse than the other? Not necessarily. They are clearly Pepsi and Coca-Cola, KFC and McDonald's, Real Madrid and Barcelona. In Xia Haoyang's mind, he would not classify music in such detail. Both of them are good-sounding but sellable, that's all.
Throughout the week, everyone has been paying attention to album sales. So far, the first album "Lie" has sold 1270 million copies; the second album "Sugar Free" has exceeded 900 million copies; the music movie "Cry Cry + Lovey Dovey" has sold 900 million copies. " is close to 800 million copies; the two singles "Lovey Dovey" Zombie Version + Madam's Blind Date "What Should I Do" add up to more than 700 million copies; now the mini-album "Hide and Seek in Deep Winter", which has been released for a week, has exceeded the million copy mark.
"Xiao Liu, Xiao Liu, how many copies of SHE's new album have you sold?" After knowing her own album sales, Quan Wenxin couldn't wait to ask EHS's album sales. EHS's new album was released a week earlier than Tara, or a full two months later than their second album "Sugar Free".
"Let me see. As of 0:00 today, EHS's sales volume is 670 million." Xiao Liu at the front desk replied calmly.
"Yeah, I surpassed them in just one week." The six little ones all cheered. Although Xia Haoyang has repeatedly emphasized that there is no need to focus on EHS. Their styles are completely different and incomparable, but Tara and the others have always regarded EHS as their biggest competitor, fighting for every success, whether on the singing stage or in album sales. Even if the fans outvoted them, they would be happy.
"Okay, okay, we have surpassed them. You are happy. You can concentrate on practicing the new songs and dances. We need to record the songs and hand them over to the crew as soon as possible." Xia Haoyang said with a smile.
"What time is Wanqi's flight today? Last night Wanqi called me and I was taking a shower and didn't answer it. When I called back, the line was always busy. Then I fell asleep unknowingly. When I arrived at the company, I remembered that Wanqi was returning today. Yancheng." Juzi said calmly.
"The flight is in the afternoon. It's okay. I'll pick you up at the airport." Xia Haoyang said casually.
"You can't drive, so I'll go with you." Xie Shujie was also standing nearby.
"No, just take a taxi then." In order to pick up his girlfriend, Xia Haoyang was too embarrassed to bother Lao Xie.
"It's okay, I haven't been busy lately, so I'll go with you." After saying that, Lao Xie patted Xia Haoyang on the shoulder and walked to the recording studio.
"Okay, thank you, Lao Xie." Looking at Lao Xie's back, Xia Haoyang sighed secretly.
After returning from the Spring Festival this time, I can clearly feel Lao Xie's silence. Due to the influence of the lip-syncing incident, although Lao Xie has not been officially banned, all personal activities of Lao Xie have now stopped. Although he said that he could move behind the scenes, he is unwilling to do so. Everyone can see it. Xia Haoyang was also thinking about changing some songs with female voices to male voices for Lao Xie to try, but he has not started it because he has been busy recently.
In fact, in the original time and space, the South Korea boy group was more popular than the girl group. TVXQ, Super Junior, EXO, Big Bang, Winner, Got 7, and BTS, if we only talk about their status in South Korea, if all the above groups were sitting at the scene, Xia Haoyang's favorite Tara probably doesn't even have a place to stand. Girl groups except Girls' Generation can barely sit next to these boy groups. Even if blackping conquers Milikian, in South Korea, they can only stand aside when compared with these powerful boy groups. . In South Korea, the status of boy groups is inherently higher than that of girl groups. There is no way, because most of the people who pay for idols are girls. The culture of the rice circle in South Korea is so real and cruel.
But it's a pity that Xia Haoyang doesn't appreciate boy bands at all, or maybe it's prejudice. Anyway, he never listens to boy band songs, otherwise it would be okay to just sing a few boy band K-POP songs to Lao Xie. But now, Xia Haoyang can only think about what kind of music is suitable for Lao Xie. For example, several songs sung by the male protagonist in "So Beautiful" seem to be suitable for Lao Xie. Yes, that’s the decision.
The company's six bosses, except Xia Haoyang, all know how to drive. After the first album became a hit last year, they used the company's funds to buy five cars. Although Lao Xie loves cars, he is not an over-consumer. He only chose a domestically produced Haval H6. Cars worth hundreds of thousands of dollars were running on the streets of Yancheng, the capital, and they were extremely low-key.
"Lao Xie, I plan to make a movie." Xia Haoyang sat in the passenger seat.
"Is that the music biopic you completed before?" Lao Xie tilted his head slightly and glanced at Xia Haoyang, then looked straight ahead and said.
"It's not a biography, it just borrows the character prototypes of the Kittens and the stories of several singers. There are several songs in it with male voices. You can sing the ost." Xia Haoyang said seriously.
"The entire movie is completely funded by our studio?" Lao Xie was not immediately happy that he got the opportunity to sing a song, but was evaluating whether it was suitable to make a movie.
"Of course it would be better to get sponsorship. What I mean is that if no one invests, we will pay for it ourselves. I can get the money." Xia Haoyang said with certainty.
"Making a movie is different from shooting a music MV. We are not familiar with the director, actors, and so on. We are all musicians, so we can only help with the production of the OST. For other things, we have to hire people. What I mean is, I can't control the professional field and technology. I am just a simple investor, so I always feel uneasy." Lao Xie said steadily.
"It's okay. In fact, we need to find a reliable director and let him set up the filming team himself. We will not participate. But we will decide the actors." Xia Haoyang said seriously.
"For example, let Tang Wanqi play the heroine?" Lao Xie smiled.
"Yes, the heroine Tang Wanqi! The three male protagonists are still hesitating. How about you play a role and sing the ost by the way." Xia Haoyang said.
"Am I suitable for the role in your movie?" Lao Xie Ke still remembers that when he was filming a song MV, Xia Haoyang always wanted actors with excellent acting skills to play, so he was quite taboo and didn't want Xia Haoyang to use him out of sympathy or other reasons. .
"The lead role is not suitable, but it's okay to play the second male lead. The lead role is a trio. Your bright and high voice is suitable for one of the roles. Moreover, this movie is about musicians. You can be considered a true performer, but the acting requirements are not so high. Harsh." Xia Haoyang also explained seriously.
"Okay, then I'll play a role. I want a salary. It's not like Zhu Longyi who gets 8000 million, and it's not like yuan that can be spent." Lao Xie said jokingly, and at this time Xie Shujie's Eyes visibly twinkling.
