Thinker in the entertainment industry

During the preparation of Jang Hyun Seung's solo album, Beast is currently active in Japan, and Jung Ji Yong also has his own work. It is a little difficult to coordinate the time. Fortunately, there is no problem this time.

But Zhang Xiansheng still mentioned this matter: "This time the time is not very tight, we are all cubes, and it is convenient to contact and meet, what will you do in the future? It is a bit unreasonable to ask the company for leave or adjust the time." Trainee's schedule The arrangement is different from that of artists. They receive systematic training, and the schedule is tight and relatively fixed. It is difficult for teachers to ask for leave and transfer courses.

"I may resign after a while." Zheng Zhiyong said.Not because he wants to be a producer, but because of "showmethemoney". He recently studied this program and found that if he can go to the back, it will be very difficult to do two things at once.I didn't think about resigning, so it was put on the agenda.Now Zheng Zhiyong is just thinking about when he should tell Cube, should he wait until after passing the audition?I don't know the results of the two songs I made for exid, Zheng Zhiyong is not very confident now.

He added: "It's not because of being a producer, because of other things. Being a producer is still a bit difficult for me, and I won't try again easily in the short term."

Zhang Xiansheng's expression was very speechless: "Okay, let's get down to business."

"The main song you prepared, do you have any ideas about how to dance it now?"

If life is a game...then "making Zheng Zhiyong confused" must be Zhang Xiansheng's daily life!

How did he change his mind?After being taken aback, Zheng Zhiyong couldn't figure it out, but Zhang Xiansheng was waiting for his reply. Zheng Zhiyong, who was standing against the wall, adjusted his posture, put his hands in the pockets of his coat, and said honestly: "There is of."

"Oh?" Zhang Xiansheng looked a little surprised, "Let's talk about it."

"Referring to some dances in "No Tomorrow" and vixx, the cooperation between the singers is changed to that between the singer and the backup dancer, and then a part is weakened."

Zheng Zhiyong has not danced for a long time, and it is not easy for him to describe his thoughts concisely and accurately temporarily, and it is not a problem to use analogies.

"It just so happens that the style is similar, isn't it?" Zhang Xiansheng said, "Do you want to find a choreographer?"

"If you find a choreographer teacher..."

Usually, the choreographer is found after the main title is decided. Otherwise, the choreographer has worked so hard to arrange the dance well, and the title song has been changed again. Who would like to do this for nothing?

Zhang Xiansheng also thought of this, and his expression suddenly became a little embarrassing. He walked from one end of the practice room to the other, and then walked back: "Then... then let's try it first. But I can only dance, and I am not very good at designing movements." meeting."

It doesn't matter, I know a little bit, Zheng Zhiyong thought, and——"It's enough to have a general look, and leave the actual editing to professional people."

"Okay", Zhang Xiansheng nodded in agreement, "One more thing", he had a familiar hesitation on his face, which gave the impression that it was exactly the same as when he regretted the recording of the included song, "Have you gone to see it?" A song that an outside composer submitted to the company?"

Zheng Zhiyong was a little puzzled: "No, is there a good song?"

"No, I just think...it's better to have a look first."

If Zhang Xiansheng hadn't seen Zhang Xiansheng's straightforwardness when watching Zheng Zhiyong's recorded songs at the beginning, Zheng Zhiyong would really feel that Zhang Xiansheng was dissatisfied with his songs, but why is he doing this now?

Fortunately, Zheng Zhiyong already knew that even if he acted bluntly or even hated him a little, Zhang Xiansheng would not do anything to him.As long as there is no serious conflict of fundamental interests, Zhang Xiansheng does not need to spend time and energy on fighting with others, which is not worth the loss—at least for Zhang Xiansheng.

So Zheng Zhiyong asked directly: "Brother Xiansheng, are you not satisfied with the included songs I wrote?"

The person who was stunned was replaced by Zhang Xiansheng, his eyes widened, his mouth slightly opened, and he was stunned for several seconds before answering Zheng Zhiyong's question, "No", he denied, "but there may be better choices." .

"What kind?" Zheng Zhiyong asked politely but resolutely, "Is the style inappropriate, or the song itself is not good? I will listen to the songs that are cast outside the company, but I want to know what is wrong with my songs , and also want to understand what I have to base my choice on.”

"No, that's not what I meant."

Zhang Xiansheng was a little flustered, he first looked at Zheng Zhiyong's expression, but after seeing Zheng Zhiyong's serious face, he immediately looked away, wandered a few steps, squatted down in distress, and put his face on the on his own knee.

"It's like this", the squatting action seemed to turn on some kind of switch, for example, "There is nothing to worry about if such a movement is done in front of him." Afterwards, Zhang Xiansheng gave up on himself and stood up , Said, "Your song is very good, it's my reason, I can't fully express the feeling in the song, I will feel very disappointed with myself."

"Any more?"

"If you don't have many songs like this in your hand, be careful when choosing a platform. Songs like r;&b are better for solo singers who specialize in singing them than for me." Zhang Xiansheng said.

And Zheng Zhiyong had nothing to say to him.

Fortunately, I have been persevering in asking!Obviously it means "Your song is very good, but it's a pity for me. Anyway, no one cares about the included songs. Would you like to change to two mediocre songs?" Do you have to say it like this?

"Brother Xiansheng", Zheng Zhiyong looked helpless, if it wasn't for his bad legs, he would have knelt down to this man right now, "Why don't you just say the reason, I thought... I thought you were right I'm not satisfied with the song I chose." His tone suddenly softened from the seriousness and orderliness just now, because the turning point was too abrupt, and it also had a bit of a cute taste.

"sorry."

This sentence was blurted out, but Zhang Xiansheng got stuck again later. After racking his brains, what he did was to look at Zheng Zhiyong and asked tentatively: "Do you want to choreograph now?"

Zheng Zhiyong, dumbfounded: "Okay."

If there is no subjective malice, other problems are still within the tolerance range.

Zhang Xiansheng had no schedule this afternoon. According to his long-standing habit, he would practice in the company at this time. Now it was changed to try choreography, and there was nothing wrong with it. It just changed from dancing the movements programmed by others to groping for himself.

Well, the work of "groping" is mainly done by Zheng Zhiyong.

"My idea is that there is a turning point here, the front is lighter, the feeling of a teenager, here, it is about 'you don't know, you don't know' here", Zheng Zhiyong stretched out his hand and made a downward movement Action, "the atmosphere in the dance needs to change."

"Mature restraint of a man, right?" Zhang Xiansheng said, "How?"

He is very familiar with the lively dance steps, and he also likes them very much. When Zheng Zhiyong said just now, he started to jump happily.At the moment Zhang Xiansheng is trying to complete the transition from "lively" to "restraint", but it seems not very successful.In addition to stepping on or off the stage, there are few things that can make him change his style in a second.

Zheng Zhiyong watched for a long time, and finally realized this, "Can this work?" He suggested, "Finally jump up a little bit, and then stand at attention on the spot... No, it's not, just stand up straight, with your hands naturally Hang down, and then continue the next movement."

I can't explain the details with my mouth. Zheng Zhiyong couldn't help but start the on-site drill at the end. He made two small gestures casually with his hands and feet to show that he was a lively young man at this time, and then made a very small gesture that could almost be regarded as a physical posture. Putting his legs together in a straight up jump, the whole person stood upright, with his head held high and his chest firm, his eyes were firm, and it was written on his young and handsome face that he was undeniably reliable.

"Probably so." He turned his head and said to Zhang Xiansheng.

"You can dance", Zhang Xiansheng said in a positive tone, "Also, your..."

His voice stuck here.

"My legs and waist have been injured, so I can't continue dancing," Zheng Zhiyong continued Zhang Xiansheng's words, "It seems okay to demonstrate this kind of movement."

"Sorry, I didn't mean to say this."

"It doesn't matter, I will tell more people sooner or later," Zheng Zhiyong smiled, "I want to try to go to the front of the stage."

"But you didn't sign a contract with the company, where do you want to go?"

"I have an idea, but I haven't decided yet. I want to participate in "showmethemoney" first."

"The audition will be held next month." "showmethemoney" has attracted a lot of attention in South Korea, not to mention that Zhang Xiansheng is still a hip-hop fan, so I know the general situation, "Come on."

"Thank you." Zheng Zhiyong said.

Zhang Xiansheng doesn't have much talent in designing dance moves, and he did a good job following Zheng Zhiyong's idea. When necessary, Zheng Zhiyong would inevitably play the role of backup dancer himself, and make gestures with Zhang Xiansheng to cooperate with the movements in the middle of the stage.

Zheng Zhiyong also discovered for the first time that after so many years of not dancing, his choreography ability has improved a bit.I have laid a good foundation in dance in SM, and I have also started to get started in choreography, and I have seen various stages in these years...he can only explain it in this way.

Anyway, I just have taste, and I have sporadic ideas. If I really want to choreograph a dance, I still need a professional, so it is not very useful.Zheng Zhiyong thought.

However, Zhang Xiansheng has pieced together what Zheng Zhiyong wants to express from these fragmented thoughts.

"Not bad", Zhang Xiansheng stroked back his slightly sweaty hair, and wiped the sweat from his forehead, "If your concept can be expressed on stage, it's not bad."

This meant approval, but Zheng Zhiyong didn't know what to say, so he just stood there.Zhang Xiansheng glanced at him, then looked away: "I agree to use your song, why do you feel a little unhappy, what's wrong?"

"It's a rare solo opportunity. I don't need to like songs. I'm actually not sure." Don't even listen to him.

"This, I know." Zhang Xiansheng put his hand on the back of his head, "Let me think about it, how should I tell you."

Have you finally realized how serious your language cancer symptoms are?

Zheng Zhiyong bit his lip, trying not to let himself laugh out loud, but holding back, he suddenly remembered something:

No, how did Zhang Xiansheng know?

But Zheng Zhiyong didn't have the time and energy to think about it for the time being. After finishing class at the company at night, he returned home and started thinking while looking at his phone while waiting for the zero o'clock.

The song "Reunion" he gave to the team formed by Heo Solji and Ahn Hyojin will be released soon.

The first episode of the official version of "The King of Masked Singer", that is, the episode when Xu Suzhi went to the opening, was broadcast the night before. When it was broadcast, Zheng Zhiyong was sitting in the office and was busy with his work during the day The communication with Zhang Xiansheng didn't go to see how much reaction it caused, but just took the time to look at the search popularity rankings - the situation is not bad. When the Spring Festival trial version of "The King of Masked Singer" was aired, the response was very good, and Xu Suzhi's identity had already been revealed at that time, but even though everyone knew that the person under the mask of "self-inspection mosaic" was Who, the song "maria" by Xu Suzhi, who took off the mask, still brought a lot of surprise and emotion to the audience.The intuitive manifestation is the high search popularity ranking.

Then the song he gave to the team formed by Xu Solzhi and Le, and the song "Reunion" that will be released at zero o'clock soon, make people look forward to and nervous.The expectation belongs to the audience, and the tension belongs to Zheng Zhiyong himself. Zheng Zhiyong was not that nervous during "myway ornoway" because he didn't have much to lose, but now he is nervous because he has something to worry about.

Are you worried that a bad response will affect your reputation as a creator?Or are you worried about affecting An Xiyan's impression of you?

Zheng Zhiyong asked himself this question, and the answer was the latter.

It was hopeless.

In this way, it seems that it is a good thing that he spent a few days struggling to make an album for Zhang Xiansheng, and he diverted his attention well.

Thinking so, Zheng Zhiyong glanced at his phone again, there were still three or ten minutes until midnight.

Let's open the music list first.

Once the thoughts go astray, it will be difficult to pull them back, at least until Zheng Zhiyong has finished watching the sound source curve of "Reunion".
