But although there is no hope, after going around in a circle, we still have to talk.

And when Wang Chuan and others heard Xue Weiqi finished saying that he wanted to post another Chinese album this year, he also refused without any surprise.

"If I am satisfied with those songs, will I change them twice before finalizing the album version?" Wang Chuan couldn't help sighing, "I really didn't release so many songs as you think because of writing songs. It’s too fast, I’m consuming all my inventory, and why I’m posting this English album is because I need to take a break. And to be honest, I always feel like I’ve reached a bottleneck when writing songs recently, and it’s really painful. In addition to the past six months busy touring..."

"You really should take it easy and change the environment." Xue Weiqi echoed, with a very concerned tone, "The body is the most important thing, Chuan, you'd better find a chance to take a break for a while."

No way, what Wang Chuan said was too sincere.

Even though people inside and outside the circle feel that Wang Chuan is so strong in creation that he seems to be omnipotent, but now he will complain and feel pain. It is normal to have such problems.

"I think so too, but soon I have to make an album and film a movie, and I will be busy for another half a year."

Wang Chuan said worriedly.

It is certainly not impossible for Wang Chuan to produce another Chinese album.

In fact, Wang Chuan originally thought about releasing two albums this year, one in Chinese and one in English.

But Penguin Music took the initiative to mention it first, so Wang Chuan would refuse.

When the personal level has basically reached the peak, Wang Chuan needs to think more from the perspective of Shanhai and Midsummer Music, and cannot be too cooperative with Penguin Music.

This will help the company win more bargaining chips in the increasingly extensive cooperation with Penguin Music.

Although the current Wang Chuan releases a Chinese album, for the huge Penguin Music, the impact on revenue is very limited, but the social influence and value of this album in terms of publicity can be used as a small chips.

If Xue Weiqi came to talk like this, Wang Chuan would definitely not nod.

Anyway, the copyright agreement was signed last year, and there is no violation of the rules for only publishing the English version. Wang Chuan can just collect money.

In the middle, it will be "bad" for a year, and the king will return next year to build momentum for the next copyright agreement, so the water will continue to flow.

This year Wang Chuan just needs to prove his influence.

"That's right, the influence of Chinese musicians in the United States still needs to be developed by you. It's just that you, a star, are more tired than us working as workers, hahaha."

Xue Weiqi smiled, feeling a little regretful in his heart.

It was actually Xue Weiqi's own idea to ask Wang Chuan to post one more Chinese brochure.

There are also other different voices within Penguin Music, and many people hope that Wang Chuan will focus on developing the American market.

Although Wang Chuan is not from Penguin Music.

But if Wang Chuan can gain a firm foothold in the United States, it will undoubtedly be very attractive to their long-term strategy.

After signing Wang Chuan's exclusive copyright, Penguin Music has completely entered an invincible state on the domestic streaming music platform. If it wants to develop further, it must go abroad.

Originally, Penguin thought that the complete acquisition of Huanqiu Records had a longer history than the influence of Chinese singers in the United States, but they didn't expect that Wang Chuan would make a big start when he stopped by during his tour.

So rather than asking Wang Chuan to publish a Chinese special, more people in Penguin Music think about how to completely tie Wang Chuan to their chariot.

The capital injection of Shengxia Entertainment has been completed, but what about Shanhai Music's new round of financing?What about Shanhai Entertainment?

Penguin Video and Penguin Films also hope that Wang Chuan is their Penguin's true self, not just the current state of close cooperation.

In fact, at Penguin Entertainment’s top-level meeting this year, almost every time it was discussed how to acquire Shanhai Entertainment, the feasibility analysis was updated in multiple versions, and several acquisition plans were proposed.

Wang Chuan is so attractive now!

After eating with Xue Weiqi, Wang Chuan felt quite bored.

After he refused, Xue Weiqi didn't find any other reason to persuade him, so he chatted awkwardly and finished the meal.

It's really not as good as Huang Ci'en studying for a while.

Wang Chuan felt that this Xue Weiqi had very ordinary power in Penguin Music.

If he invites him to dinner again in the future, Wang Chuan is ready to make excuses and let it go.

……

"I learned a new song!"

Yang Xuezhi ran to Wang Chuan excitedly after breakfast.

Before flying back to the United States, after a meeting with the top management of Shanhai Entertainment to deal with the accumulated affairs, Wang Chuan specially squeezed out a day to accompany her.

It happened to be the end of March when everything warmed up in spring, basking in the sun on the lawn of the villa, with a warm breeze blowing, and not having to think about other things, it was also a great enjoyment in life.

"Oh?" Wang Chuan smiled curiously, "Sing and listen."

"Then I will sing."

After Yang Xuezhi finished speaking, she glanced at Wang Chuan and bit her lips, her eyes were a little uncertain and apprehensive.

"Sister Xuezhi! I'm your brainless fan! I'm your fan! Ahhhh~"

Wang Chuan deliberately suppressed his voice and shouted, with a smile on his face.

"Forehead……"

Yang Xuezhi also laughed for a long time, coughed twice, made herself serious, and said again.

"I sang."

"Which song do you want to sing, I'll get you a guitar to accompany you."

Wang Chuan stood up as he spoke, and walked into the room.

Yang Xuezhi didn't even have time to stop her.

It's just that Wang Chuan had just taken two steps when he heard Yang Xuezhi stumbling and singing from behind.

"I want you by my side, I want you to dress for..."

It's Huang Ci'en's new song "I Want You" released this month.

Wang Chuan turned around.

With Yang Xuezhi's singing skills, some songs sounded okay, but the song "I Want You" was obviously the most difficult for her to sing.

She can't master the rhythm, she tends to sing strange melodies, she can't pull up her emotions, and she doesn't know how to give full play to the advantages of her voice.

That's exactly what she's singing now.

But when the sunshine in the spring morning wrapped her singing from behind, the gentle wind and sunshine seemed to make a magical mix for her singing.

Wang Chuan walked over and gently hugged her.

……

"I hope you don't mind too much."

Looking at Wang Chuan who was fiddling with on the workbench, Yin Lisi said something.

"what?"

Wang Chuan raised his head and asked.

Yin Lisi was invited by Wang Chuan today, and asked her to come over to give some opinions on the production of her new album.

Of course, this was just a polite invitation, and Wang Chuan would not really take her advice.

Now just some differences with the producer Martin made Wang Chuan feel very irritable.

More than half a month after arriving in the United States, the production of the album is still not on the right track, because Wang Chuan is still trying to figure out how to make Martin accept his own way of doing it.

Although the conversation after the last meeting was harmonious, when the production actually started, Martin immediately had the desire to control everything.

It really gave Wang Chuan a headache.

Wang Chuan can only say that there is a reason why Martin has changed from a popular fried chicken two or three years ago to a top-notch producer now.

He just wanted to play with his old set, and he was so infatuated with "trash beats" that Wang Chuan was speechless, and desperately wanted to add more orchestration to the song.

You must know that Bonsai's songs are originally atmospheric, supported by elements of electronic music, and the production is also a trend of minimalist production. It doesn't sound so popular at first glance, but it is very listenable.

Doing what Martin does will make the song lose its best parts and become extremely mediocre.

Wang Chuan can accept some small changes in the song, but it is impossible to be willing to do so.

So after the two had another fierce dispute yesterday, Martin gave up the pick. He probably didn't expect a Chinese singer to be so stubborn against him, the ace producer, before accepting it.

Gris was going to persuade, but Wang Chuan was going to take the opportunity to take out the finished product of a song by himself.

If there is a finished product, after Martin still feels that it is not as good as the "garbage" he wants to make, Wang Chuan will consider changing the producer.

So Wang Chuan just invited Yin Lisi over.

Another reason for inviting Yin Lisi was that she had cooperated with Martin before, and Wang Chuan also asked her by the way to see if there was a better way to break through Martin.

If it is really a last resort to change the producer, it will make Wang Chuan's situation in the American music circle more difficult.

"Those... criticisms from the outside world, those words full of harshness and prejudice, I was also attacked in the same way when I first debuted, that is, just treat them as some flies buzzing in my ears."

Yin Lisi also gesticulated.

Both "syt" and Wang Chuan's marketing hype in the United States were too successful, so for Wang Chuan, an outsider who suddenly entered the circle, or from China, which has always been considered a music depression, this is a good opportunity to gain reputation .

The "powerful" "strength" of holding things and meeting people, and having countless house tickets, although classic, is still too old-fashioned.

And diss people are always welcome.

In the current American entertainment industry, there is no better target to attack than Wang Chuan who just barged in.

Such pursuit of Chinese people must be because they like their money!

Hate the never ending hype!

The soft one can only rely on women!

I will resist the mercy of capital!

...too many angles.

Even when Wang Chuan held his first concert last year, the matter of paying people to stand on the stage was exposed, satirized in talk shows, and written in several songs.

It may be an exaggeration to say that Wang Chuan is being bullied online across the United States, but it's not much worse.

"Of course I don't care." Wang Chuan said with a relaxed smile, "Isn't there a saying? The more people attack you, the hotter you are."

"Indeed."

Yin Lisi finally laughed out.

The more she got in touch with Wang Chuan, a Huaxia person, the more she felt how outrageous her previous views on Huaxia were.

Huaxia still has high-level music. What Wang Chuan is doing now, in her opinion, is much better than the k-pop in country h.

Wang Chuan really has his own musical attainments, not just imitating the hit singles on the billboard.

However, it is also possible that the producer Martin now has a new understanding of music. Maybe Martin and Wang Chuan can make a song together in his album?

Yin Lisi thought about it, and asked.

"Where's Martin?"

Only then did Wang Chuan speak out about his conflict with Martin, without any embellishment.

The surprised Yin Lisi pondered for a while after listening, and then guessed and spoke.

"Maybe he cares that you will be co-authored with him as a producer, which will make him receive less money after the song is released. Martin is... actually a good talker. Maybe you will directly refute it Afterwards, he was a little embarrassed. How much did you discuss privately before the production? If the conflict occurred when he came to the studio, he would feel that his authority was offended in front of everyone.”

"..."

Wang Chuan thought about it speechlessly, and it seemed that it might really be the reason Yin Lisi said.

The money was indeed neglected, which was equivalent to a deviation from Martin's subsequent price at that time, so it would be good to make up for it.

As for Martin's authority... In fact, Wang Chuan should have paid special attention to this point, but probably Martin's attitude was too easy-going before, and Wang Chuan was too busy to forget...

Replaced Martin with Wang Chuan, and was forced to stand in front of his brothers in the studio for more than half a month... Well, Wang Chuan probably gave up the pick the next day.

Fortunately, Yin Lisi was invited here today, otherwise, when Wang Chuanzhen took out the finished song and slapped Martin in the face, it would probably be completely broken.

The cooperation with Martin is actually really pleasant, and the differences are also controlled on the music. He was so angry yesterday that he didn't say many bad words.

If it were someone else, it would probably start to discriminate.

"Thank you."

Wang Chuan thanked Yin Lisi.

"You're welcome," Yin Lisi said with a smile, "I look forward to your album after you finish it, I have a hunch it will be great!"

……

Yin Lisi's guess was correct, and Martin really cared about those two points.

After Wang Chuan went to apologize to him at night, Martin accepted it directly.

He also took the money Wang Chuan made up very simply.

And when collecting money, Martin also explained.

"I don't care about the money bro, look at the big house I live in, I don't need money. In fact, if the album goes on like this, I shouldn't charge this money. But, it made me realize that you are a What a genuine person, and I won't let you spend this money for nothing."

"Of course, I know."

What else could Wang Chuan say, just nod.

After Martin went back the next day, the production of the album started quickly, basically according to Wang Chuan's ideas, and some of Martin's opinions from time to time also began to make Wang Chuan feel interesting. On the choice of some sound effects, Wang Chuan really felt that it was possible. would be nice.

But Wang Chuan didn't accept it either.

Martin was still very helpless. He even boasted that Wang Chuan had given him a lot of inspiration, but in the end...

But Wang Chuan gave too much.

In April and May, apart from practicing with the choreographer of "La La Land" for one afternoon every two days, and taking some acting classes in Hollywood, Wang Chuan concentrated on making albums in the music studio.

Neither Huaxia's flattery nor the United States' attacks paid any attention.

In the middle of May, the album was finally completed as scheduled, and the filming of "La La Land" is about to begin.
