Chapter 112 The first meeting between Brother Tianwang Xuan and newcomer Xiao Zhou
The variety show "I Guess I Guess I Guess" is very similar to "Happy Camp".
In other words, most indoor entertainment variety shows remain the same. The only difference lies in the way of expression and specific links. The essence is still the "interview + game" model.
These highlights are not games, but the interaction between the host and the guests.
For example, Shen Teng and Jia Ling's "Ace vs. Ace". Many games are decades old and are common in Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and even mainland China, but there are still audiences who like this game.
Therefore, hosts or MCs with extremely active and controllable abilities are the bottom line for similar programs, and they maintain the basics of the program.
The upper limit is the number of guests. Guests who are well-known or perform well can bring the show to a small climax in ratings.
Cao Xuan is the main star of today's "I Guess I Guess I Guess", but for the sake of the show's effect, he still hired a few assistant stars.
Jiukong, Ren Xianqi's good friend, also knew Cao Xuan.
His job is to be funny and ugly. If there is any inconvenience between Cao Xuan and Wu Zongxian, he will take over.
Cai Yilin, the boy killer, was specially brought in by the show crew to stir up the topic, and only men and women can have fun with it.
There are also two sisters, S and S, who are participating in the show. They cannot be considered as participating in the show. These two are regulars on this show, especially S. She, Aya, Zeng Baoyi, Tao Jingying and others take turns to partner with Wu Zongxian. They are the stars of this show. Host one of the groups.
In addition, there are several artists whom Cao Xuan does not know. Most of them are variety show stars and have gained popularity in major variety shows in Taiwan.
Sisters Big S and Little S are very good at talking, especially Little S. She is known for being open-minded and laughing and running over to chat with Cao Xuan.
But Cao Xuan has no interest in the two sisters, not only because of the red line problem, but mainly because he is not comfortable with Xiao S's style.
He doesn't quite understand. He likes to take advantage of male celebrities. Is this something worth showing off?
If a male host had taken advantage of a female celebrity, he would have died without knowing how.
Maybe it can be said that she was joking, or that Taiwan Province has a large scale, and male stars are also willing to do so, but other people are willing, which does not mean that Cao Xuan is willing.
He's a scumbag, but he's not abusive, and he doesn't want to be taken advantage of.
Cao Xuan had no intention of chatting with them anymore. Apart from talking to Jiu Kong, his attention was focused on the taciturn young man in front of him who had just arrived.
The real half of the Chinese music scene is Jay Chou!
However, Jay Chou, who is currently frustrated, is far less energetic than he was in the future. He has an extremely reserved personality, or he has low self-esteem.
Although Wu Zongxian signed him, he didn't take it seriously. He and Fang Wenshan were at Alpha Records. One was a lyricist and the other was a composer. The two brothers were inseparable.
According to Wu Zongxian's later interview, he had recommended Jay Chou to Zhang Huimei and Liu Tianwang, but they were rejected.
The former said that what he sang was "Listen, the sound of the sea crying", what the hell is this "hum hum ha hey nunchaku", the latter complained, "I know what tears mean, how can tears know? How can I do this?"
Of course, the authenticity of this statement is doubtful. After all, Wu Zongxian is a famous talker. He often exaggerates and makes himself look bad not once or twice.
But regardless of whether it is true or not, Jay Chou is indeed not well received by the Taiwanese music scene, and his works have not had any particularly good results.
This caused him to fall into deep self-doubt. In order to cheer himself up, he wrote a song "Snail", which was sung by Xu Ruyun, Qi Qin and others, and finally became a hit.
Cao Xuan also listened to "Snail" this time and wanted to meet the songwriter, so he met Jay Chou.
"Xiao Zhou, I like your "Snail" very much. I think you are very talented in music. I would like to ask if you have any ideas about going north to develop your career."
Cao Xuan poached with a kind big brother smile.
As for the name Xiao Zhou, Cao Xuan shouted confidently. Considering his current fame, status, qualifications, and even his age, calling him Xiao Zhou was not excessive.
Jay Chou didn't have any objection at all, and was even a little flattered.
He had been rejected by various blows before, and he almost changed careers. However, now that Cao Xuan, the rising king of the mainland, personally extended an olive branch, how could he not be shocked.
You know, Cao Xuan is not only the King of Pop, but also a well-known creative talent in the past two years. Some Taiwanese media call him the Li Zongsheng of the Mainland.
In the Taiwanese music scene, Li Zongsheng has an unparalleled status and is an authoritative authority in the pop music scene.
Even if the mainland version of Cao Xuan is offered at a 20% discount, it still makes Jay Chou feel sad.
Finally someone recognized his talent!
However, it is a pity that Cao Xuan was a step too late. If two months ago, just what he said just now, Zhou Jielun would have packed his bags and followed him to the capital without saying a word.
But now, Wu Zongxian has begun to produce Jay Chou's first album.
More strictly speaking, it is Yang Junrong, the newly appointed general manager of Alpha Company.
This person is also a singer and has a unique vision. With the song "Lovely Woman", he saw Jay Chou's potential and strongly recommended Jay Chou to Wu Zongxian to release an album.
Jay Chou was reluctant to part with this hard-earned opportunity, and since his relatives and friends were all in Taiwan, he was a family-oriented person, so it was a difficult choice for him to leave his hometown and go north.
It’s okay to have nothing. The key is that now that Jay Chou has developed in Taiwan, his gambling instinct will naturally be weakened.
Cao Xuan was a little regretful that the grand occasion of the two stars joining forces to dominate the music world was no longer around.
But it’s good to have a strong opponent. Being invincible alone is too lonely. Only when you are under pressure will you be motivated.
………
Cao Xuan still took good care of this new little brother and exchanged phone numbers specifically so that he could discuss music issues in the future.
Although he is a fake talent, Cao Xuan's theoretical knowledge in the past two years is not in vain, and he is not false when talking to Liu Huan, a music professor.
Besides, creation is actually very complex and metaphysical, and everyone has different habits and styles.
Some people's works all come from the same origin and have a strong personal color.
Some people's thoughts are as imaginative as the imagination, with various themes and elements that are unrelated to each other.
Some people carefully consider their words and sentences and need to constantly revise and polish them bit by bit.
Some people can dream of a classic whenever they sleep, and when they go to the toilet, inspiration flows from them.
Therefore, it is difficult to set a specific standard for creation, let alone measure and distinguish authenticity. As long as the theoretical knowledge is rich and solid, Cao Xuan is not afraid of revealing his secrets.
Allah is a peerless genius. Don’t use your mortal thoughts to belittle the greatness of genius.
Ho... bah!
After exchanging phone numbers, Cao Xuan found Wu Zongxian again and inserted Jay Chou into his program.
Jay Chou almost didn't know who was his boss for a moment.
Cao Xuan took such good care of Jay Chou because he really liked his songs and couldn't hide his love for talent, so he wanted to support him.
Secondly, I heard that half of the Chinese music scene in the future would be talking about Brother Xuan, with faces full of admiration and gratitude.
That feeling is more satisfying than calling Wu Jing's son, second only to calling him brother Xiao Ma...
I recommend a good friend's book "Daily Style List", which is a daily warm flow. If you like this style, go and try it.
