Chapter 657 Invitation to Sing

Thinking about this matter, Liu Yaoqing didn't sleep much all night.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, he drove directly to the CCTV building.

He did not go to his office, but first went to his superior, Zhao Ji, the director of CCTV Channel 1.

Arriving at the door of director Zhao Ji's office, Liu Yaoqing sorted out his thoughts and thought about what he would say to the director later.

He raised his hand and knocked on the door.

There was no sound in the office. At this time, a young man walked in the corridor, who was Director Zhao Ji's secretary.

"Teacher Liu, do you want to find the director? The director has not arrived yet." The young man said.

Liu Yaoqing suddenly realized that he came too early and the director had not arrived at the unit yet.

He nodded, said something to the young man, and then turned back to his office.

Turning on the air conditioner and sitting behind his desk, Liu Yaoqing began to look up information about Tan Yue. He was familiar with the name Tan Yue before, and many people had mentioned this young talent in the entertainment industry.

But I heard that if I really want to find Tan Yue, I still need to have a more detailed understanding of him.

While Liu Yaoqing was reading information, there was a knock on the office door. He put down his cell phone, looked up at the office door, and said, "Please come in."

After Liu Yaoqing finished speaking, the door of the office was pushed open, and a middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses and fair skin walked in. When he saw the person coming, Liu Yaoqing stood up from behind his desk and said, "Director."

The middle-aged man who came in was Zhao Ji, the director of CCTV Channel 1. He had been working at CCTV for more than 20 years and had made many achievements.

He is now the director of a CCTV channel. To be able to do this at his age can be said to be promising at a young age. He is very likely to become the next deputy director or even director of the CCTV channel.

Zhao Ji smiled and asked, "Old Liu, I heard Xiao Sun said you were looking for me."

Liu Yaoqing nodded and said: "Yes, Director, I have something to tell you, but you can just call me and ask me to come over. Why did you come in person?"

Zhao Ji smiled and nodded, saying: "It's okay. I just arrived in Taiwan and haven't started working yet. If you have anything, tell me."

Zhao Ji pulled over a chair and sat opposite Liu Yaoqing.

At present, the most important task in the entire channel is to successfully complete the tasks on National Day.

Liu Yaoqing served as the chief producer of the National Day Gala. After Zhao Ji came to the unit and heard that Liu Yaoqing came to see him, he knew it was about the National Day Gala.

There were only two days left before the National Day Party. Zhao Ji couldn't worry and came to see Liu Yaoqing immediately.

Liu Yaoqing said: "Director, I told you before that the ending song of the National Day Gala is a bit inappropriate."

Zhao Ji nodded and said, "Yes, you told me before, but didn't you find the right song? Have you found the right song now?"

Zhao Ji frowned slightly. To be honest, the National Day Gala was too heavy a burden and he didn't dare to make any mistakes.

Therefore, he prefers to be more conservative, because being conservative will not make mistakes. If he does something novel and the leader doesn't like it, he will be blamed.

However, Zhao Ji did not express his disapproval of Liu Yaoqing's persistence because he believed in Liu Yaoqing's ability. The two had worked together for so many years, and Liu Yaoqing had never made any mistakes.

And Zhao Ji also wants to make some achievements. If the National Day Party is held in a satisfactory manner, it may not be criticized by the leaders, but it will not make any waves.

Liu Yaoqing said: "Director, I suddenly had an idea last night. We can go to Tan Yue to invite a song. Although he is not as well-known in music as the shows, TV series and movies he has done. But the songs he has written before, every time The quality of each song is relatively high, which is enough to show his talent in music. It is also very high, and I listened to the song "My Motherland and Me" he wrote, which proves that he is also capable of composing theme songs, and the ending song of our National Day Gala needs "My Motherland and Me" style of work, so I wanted to invite him to write a song for us to try.”

Zhao Ji pondered for a moment after listening to Liu Yaoqing's words, with some hesitation in his heart. Of course he had also heard of Tan Yue. After all, Tan Yue is now the number one celebrity on the list of first-line public figures and is very popular.

But Zhao Ji doesn't know much about Tan Yue's songs, and he hasn't heard that Tan Yue has written any ending songs for some celebration parties. Can Tan Yue do it?

Seeing Zhao Ji's hesitation, Liu Yaoqing took a deep breath and continued: "Director, I think we can give Tan Yue a try. He is indeed very talented in music, and we haven't decided to use his music yet." song, or whether someone is willing to take the time to write a song for us. After all, time is too tight. I want to try to contact him first. Whether we will use his song in the end depends on whether the song he wrote is suitable. The atmosphere and style of our National Day party.”

"First invite him to write. If the song is suitable and good, we will use his song. If the song is not good, we will not use it. There will be no loss for us. If the song is better than "Singing Prosperity Together" "More suitable, that's a big gain for us."

Zhao Ji, who was still a little hesitant at first, heard what Liu Yaoqing said and thought that it was indeed like this. In the end, it still depends on the quality of the songs written by Tan Yue.

Use it if it's good, don't use it if it's not. For their National Day party, there are only advantages and no disadvantages.

Zhao Ji nodded and said: "Old Liu, you are right. You can give Tan Yue a try. You can do this. If you need support from the channel specifically, including how much it will cost, you can give it to me directly. Submit an email and I will approve it for you, but let's not make too much of a complaint about Tan Yue. After all, time is too short, and what we need is high-quality songs. If the quality is not good, we can't ask for it. At the same time, we should not relax about "Singing Prosperity". After all, the song we are most likely to use is "Singing Prosperity Together". ", to prepare this song."

Liu Yaoqing nodded and agreed. He also knew the difficulty of this matter. There was only more than one day, and the song for the ending song of the National Day Gala was destined to have very high conditions.

The probability that Tan Yue can write a song that satisfies him is very small, but his character is like this. Everything he does must satisfy him 100%, and he must try his best to do things well. If what he does does not satisfy him , he will always feel like a stick in his throat, it is too uncomfortable.

…

…

Bright Entertainment Company, in Tan Yue's office.

Tan Yue looked at the many messages from fans in the comment section of his Weibo, all urging him to release new songs.

Dong dong dong,

There was a knock on the office door, and Tan Yue raised his head and said, "Please come in."

After Tan Yue finished speaking, the office door was pushed open, and Qin Tao, director of the artist management department, walked in.

She closed the door, walked over to Tan Yue, and said hello, "Mr. Tan."

Tan Yue smiled and nodded, and said, "Mr. Qin, why are you here? Is something wrong?"

With that said, Tan Yue pointed to the chair opposite him and asked Qin Tao to sit down first.

Qin Tao thanked him, sat down opposite Tan Yue, and said, "Mr. Tan, a producer from CCTV 1 just contacted me and wanted to invite you for a song. I didn't give him a reply. Come and ask. Ask you, what do you think?"

"CCTV?" Tan Yue raised his eyebrows.

Qin Tao nodded and said: "Yes, this producer is called Liu Yaoqing. He is well-known in the circle. He has done some programs with relatively good results before. This year, the National Day Gala organized by CCTV was left to him. The song he wants to invite is also tailor-made for the ending song of the National Day Gala. "

After a pause, Qin Tao continued: "Mr. Tan, there is another question. CCTV wants this song urgently because the National Day is only two days away, so they only give us more than one day to use it. Writing songs is so hard, even for the top musicians in the industry People can't write high-quality songs in one day. Besides, this is a National Day party, and their requirements must be very high. By then, we have written the songs, but they don't want them. It's us who have to put in the effort and suffer the loss. I don’t recommend accepting this invitation from CCTV.”

Tan Yue thought for a while, nodded slightly, and said: "Okay, I will consider this matter again. From CCTV, please don't reply yet and wait for my notification. By the way, you can restrain the CCTV person." Leave me the producer’s phone number. After I think about it, if there is anything else to say, I will contact CCTV and let you know if there is anything else I need from you.”

Qin Tao nodded, left Liu Yaoqing's phone number with Tan Yue, then stood up and left. As the director of the artist management department, she also has a lot of daily work.

After Qin Tao left, Tan Yue looked at the phone number she left, frowned slightly, and slowly thought about it. Qin Tao's opinion was not to accept this invitation. In Qin Tao's opinion, this invitation was difficult. It’s too big. It’s a thankless task to write a high-quality, National Day Gala-style ending song in one day.

But the biggest problem in Qin Tao's eyes does not hold true for Tan Yue. He does not need to think hard because he has a music library in his mind, behind which is the cultural essence of the entire earth for thousands of years.

When he composes music, he selects a suitable song from this huge library.

And now a large number of fans on Weibo are urging him to release new songs. Tan Yue knows that he also has a group of music fans, but most of his energy is focused on film and television dramas, and the output of music is very low. He is really not friendly to these music fans. .

And this opportunity is relatively rare. The National Day Gala is one of the largest official galas in China, and its gold content is higher than the three major first-category awards. If his song can be used as the ending song at the National Day Gala, it will be a great success for him. There are great benefits too.

After making a decision in his mind, Tan Yue copied the mobile phone number Qin Tao just sent on WeChat, pasted it into the dialer, and made the call.

After thinking for a few times, the other side of the phone was connected, and a slightly rich male voice came out.

"Hello, who are you?" the person on the phone asked.

Tan Yue announced his family name, "Is this Teacher Liu? I am Tan Yue."

After Liu Yaohua heard Tan Yue's identity, he was immediately overjoyed, because time was getting less and less. If it dragged on any longer, he would no longer have to ask Tan Yue to sing, and could directly prepare for the start of the National Day party.

He smiled and said to Tan Yue: "Hello, Mr. Tan, I would like to invite you to compose an ending song for this year's National Day Gala. The time is a little rushed. I only have one day. I wonder if you can accept it?"

Tan Yue did not agree directly, but asked Liu Yaoqing: "Teacher Liu, do you have any conditions for this song?"

Liu Yaoqing said: "There are no conditions, Teacher Tan. If there is only one requirement, it is that the theme of this song is based on the National Day Gala. I will not restrict you, you can gallop freely and perform freely."

"Teacher Tan, let me tell you this. For more than a decade, the ending songs of the National Day Gala held by CCTV were all purchased from a group of old artists. However, the melodies of the songs written by those old artists are almost the same, like the same routine. This formatted song is indeed majestic and has the meaning of being positive and motivated, but I don’t think it is very appropriate to always use such a melody."

"Otherwise, with the National Day Gala coming soon, I won’t think about finding other songs. I just think that after so many years, the National Day Gala must have something different."

After listening to Liu Yaoqing's words, Tan Yue nodded and said, "Teacher Liu, I understand. I can try this song. I can send you the finished product this afternoon."

Liu Yaoqing was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect Tan Yue to be so straightforward, so straightforward that he felt a little unbelievable.

Tan Yue's words revealed a strong confidence, as if he could write the song in the afternoon, and the song would satisfy him.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Teacher Tan." Liu Yaoqing said to Tan Yue with a little hesitation.

The two hung up the phone after they finished talking. Tan Yue put his phone on the desk, gently pressed the armrests on both sides of the chair with both hands, slowly leaned back, looked at the chandelier above, and classic songs from his previous life emerged in his mind one by one. They appeared and disappeared in front of him like a revolving lantern, just waiting for him to call for a pause.

However, Tan Yue did not make a decision immediately. He sat up straight, turned on the computer, and found the ending song of the National Day Gala held by CCTV-1 in previous years. I never thought that CCTV-1 would invite me to write the ending song for the National Day Gala. Tan Yue had never understood this before. From what Liu Yaoqing said just now, he was not satisfied with the ending song of the National Day Gala in previous years. This year, he wanted to change a new type of song, so he found himself, so Tan Yue had to take a look at what the songs in previous years were like.

Half an hour later, Tan Yue listened to all the ending songs of the National Day Gala held by CCTV in previous years.

I have some evaluations and more understandings about this in my heart. My eyes slowly closed. Compared with the songs in previous years, he gradually had an answer in his heart.

A classic song from my previous life came to my mind. Perhaps it can be said that this song was one of the most influential songs in the global Chinese community in my previous life.
