Chapter 129 He Fei vs. Liang Yubin
Wang Wei sat on the sofa in He Fei's office, shaking his legs back and forth nervously.
After meeting Wang Jun that time, Wang Wei came up with the idea of writing a song about gay rights equality. He asked Wang Jun to help him contact Chang Xun, the chief director of the variety show, and had a face-to-face conversation with him. the content of this program.Then he was moved by Chang Xun's single-minded pursuit of equal rights, and offered to write a theme song for the show for free.
Chang Xun was overjoyed when he heard it, and thanked Wang Wei again and again, but Wang Wei regretted it, fearing that he would not be able to write a good song, and the scene would be ugly. discuss.
However, the overturned water is hard to recover, and Wang Wei had to devote a lot of energy to creating this song while preparing for the album.
Fortunately, I happened to have a cold war with Wang Si for a while, and I didn't realize that I had a lot of time to use. I hurried, and after several revisions, I finally wrote a draft that was not satisfactory.
He humbly showed this song to Liang Yubin, who did not expect that Liang Yubin immediately decided to use this song as the main title of the new album. Wang Wei was also quite surprised, because he did not intend to put this song in the album.
"This theme is absolutely amazing!" Liang Yubin was so excited that he tapped on the table repeatedly, "Gay equality, which singer would dare to be so bold? Even Yang Yongyi just hates Wenqing!"
Wang Wei scratched his temples, and said awkwardly, "This... this is the main one... I'm afraid Sister Fei won't agree..."
"Unless she's crazy! If you use the concept of this song as your main theme, the music market in today's world will definitely explode! If she doesn't agree, let her come to me!"
"Impossible. Absolutely impossible." He Fei put the score on Liang Yubin's desk, and said firmly, "Hello, Comrade"? Thank you for wanting you to come out." She gave Wang Wei a sideways look.
Wang Wei pursed his lips, not daring to vent his anger, but Liang Yubin said in dissatisfaction: "How is it impossible? Didn't the company want him to transform? What could be better than abandoning love songs and challenging the mainstream trend of thought? I will directly find the American It is guaranteed to subvert the music world!"
He Fei was silent for a moment, looked at Liang Yubin, and said: "Mr. Liang, the transformation is not like this. Look at those successful precedents. Some have transformed from teenage singers to singing and dancing mature women, some have transformed from campus folk songs to electronic music, and some have transformed from school folk songs to electronic music. How can an energetic idol transform into a rock band from a popular love song to a public welfare song? Or gay public welfare? Even if you focus on music, you should pay attention to Wang Wei’s negative gossip? There are not many people who label him gay Isn't this song a real coming out?"
Liang Yubin shook his finger: "Singing equal rights songs is coming out of the closet? How many singers in Europe and America have sung such songs, and how many actors have played roles of sexual minorities? Such an approach is not called coming out, but gay friendly, you know Is the gay community eager for a sense of identity? Even if a trendy brand makes an ad that hints at a little bit of gay rights, it will be immediately sought after and snapped up, let alone an artist who already has this foundation?"
He Fei shook her head again and again: "Can the situation in Europe and the United States be the same as in our country? Are there more than ten artists who have come out publicly? How many people in our circle know it well, don't they still fall in love and get married? Wang Wei Now he is an idol singer, no matter how many rotten lesbians love him and Wang Si's cp, the mainstream consumption power still treats him as a female fan of a fantasy couple? Doing so is definitely asking for death!"
Liang Yubin waved his hand impatiently: "Forget it, I can't reach an agreement with you, but album production is the power given to me by the company, even if you are a manager, you have to listen to me."
He Fei's cheeks flushed a little, she crossed her arms, and said coldly: "Mr. Liang, if you insist like this, I can only report it to the higher-ups to decide."
Liang Yubin shrugged: "Then let the higher-ups decide."
He Fei snorted softly, turned around and saw Wang Wei with an innocent face, pursed her lips, shook her head, and left the office.
Liang Yubin raised his head and said to Wang Wei: "It's okay, don't be afraid, I promise to make your song the main feature."
Wang Wei smiled awkwardly, and said to himself: I didn't plan to do that at first, it's as if I stood up for me...
A few days later, He Fei really made a report, and soon, the senior management responded to the video conference notice.
Wang Wei was frightened, and quickly said to He Fei: "Sister Fei, I was wrong. I didn't want to put this song in the album from the beginning, why don't I discuss it with Teacher Liang?"
"No need, this matter is not what you want now, you don't know Liang Yubin's temper? I want to kill his prestige this time, so don't attend the meeting."
Wang Wei nodded after hearing this. It would be best if he didn't participate, and he would have to face the big boss between the two of them. His liver shuddered just thinking about it.
At 02:30 in the afternoon, He Fei and Liang Yubin walked into the conference room with livid faces.
Two hours passed and there was still no movement.
Yang Xiaoxu walked in with a cup of coffee in his hand, and said softly, "Drink some coffee, don't worry too much, it doesn't matter what the result is?"
Wang Wei took the coffee and said, "That's what I said, but it's still terrible. No matter who loses, I think I will be unlucky."
Yang Xiaoxu thought for a while, then nodded: "You are right."
"..."
Wang Wei took a sip of coffee and frowned: "At this time, are you still giving me the American style?"
"Huh?" Yang Xiaoxu raised his eyebrows, "Didn't you tell me not to give you anything with sugar in it? You have to keep fit for Brother Si."
"..."
Wang Wei put down his coffee silently, and begged with the last hint, "Can you tell me something happy to relax me?"
Yang Xiaoxu rolled his eyes and said, "Jiameng is getting married next month!"
"Who?" Wang Wei didn't respond for a while.
"Zhu Jiameng! Brother Si's assistant!"
"She..." Wang Wei blinked, "Does her marriage have anything to do with me?"
Yang Xiaoxu also blinked: "As the family member of his boss, shouldn't you pack a big red envelope?"
"..."
Yang Xiaoxu squinted his eyes and smiled: "You said you want to hear happy things, that's what I thought of! Great joy!"
Wang Wei waved his hand weakly: "You go out..."
"Yeah!" Yang Xiaoxu nodded, "Call me if you need anything!"
Wang Wei slandered: It’s useless to call you a fart, what else would I do besides being angry?
Ten minutes later, He Fei finally appeared, her face was even more livid than when she left.
Wang Wei stood up nervously, but he didn't dare to ask any questions.
He Fei threw the computer on the table and sat down on the computer chair, with a trace of frustration on her face that Wang Wei had never seen before.
"The company decided that your next album will be titled "Hello Comrade", and the title of the album will also use this."
Wang Wei couldn't control it for a while, showing a dumbfounded expression.
He Fei looked at him coldly, seeing that he really didn't intend to be surprised, and knowing that he was indeed in the same camp as her, he calmed down a little, and continued: "Liang Yubin is still in charge of the album production, and I won't intervene in the future."
Wang Wei came back to his senses, and asked stammeringly, "The company...what does the company think...the problems you mentioned...are they okay?"
After hearing this, He Fei let out a long breath and said, "The company's intention is to label both you and Wang Si as gay-friendly, and open up the virgin market for sexual minorities. The risks I mentioned, the company thinks It coexists with opportunities and is controllable.”
Wang Wei opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer.
He Fei stroked the broken hair on her forehead, and said, "Don't care about my thoughts, the company's decision is the highest, and you and I just need to implement it. Maybe I have been in the circle for too long, but I am not as clear as the boss who is a bystander and far-sighted." .This time I was deflated, it doesn’t matter, if this route succeeds, what is deflated? If I fail, time will naturally prove my right.”
Wang Wei nodded half-understood, and He Fei added: "Don't get me wrong, I'm just from a professional point of view, and I'm worried that it's not good for your development. I absolutely understand and agree with you about the relationship between you and Wang Si." supported."
Wang Wei quickly said, "I know, I know."
He Fei sighed, adjusted his mood, and asked, "Has he gone to Rome to participate in the film festival? Will the Flying Lion Awards come to fruition today?"
Wang Wei smiled and said, "Tonight, but he said it himself. He just walked the red carpet with the crew. He didn't even win the Thousand Feathers Award. How could he win the Flying Lion Award!"
He Fei nodded, with tired eyes, Wang Wei hurriedly said: "Then you go ahead, I'll go to Teacher Liang to see what he has to say."
He Fei waved her hand helplessly, and Wang Wei groveled and withdrew like a slave.
Liang Yubin was in a good mood when he defeated He Fei, and he described the grand plan of the new album with Wang Wei, imagined the future of a double harvest of sales and word of mouth, and then dug out the unfinished arrangement content to study with him until late at night, It wasn't until Wang Wei was so sleepy that he couldn't keep his eyes open that he was released.
On the way home, Wang Wei let out a sigh and slid his phone away, and saw two pieces of news that woke him up. One was that Sun Xuefei’s episode of the online comprehensive was broadcast, and Xiong Dan’s plausible story sparked a new wave of discussion , and the other one is:
"Waiting for Murray" won the Best Film, Best Original Screenplay, and Best Director at the Flying Lion Awards at the Rome Film Festival.Wang Si was nominated for Best Actor.
