As soon as Old John's words came out, the scene fell silent.
After all, for musicians, the most unbearable thing is plagiarism.
Zhuo Feiyang's face flushed red: "You are talking nonsense! Why do you say I plagiarized!"
Old John was not afraid, and sneered: "The structure and melody of your song are exactly the same as Trista Hall's song "Darkness" in 2005. Since you said you wrote it yourself, how dare you write it? Don’t dare to write out the score on the spot, let’s compare it?”
As Old John said, some good people had found the song "darkness", and the moment the song was released, the eyes of everyone at the scene changed.
Indeed, except for the different lyrics, the melodies of the two songs are almost the same.
Almost all of the people present were musicians, so they naturally understood what this meant.
Several guests said to Zhuo Feiyang's table: "Hey! Please explain! Why is your song exactly the same as "darkness"?"
Some were even more impolite: "Old John, contact Hall's company and let them sue this person! How dare you come to City C for plagiarism? You are not small!"
Zhuo Feiyang's face changed slightly, and before Old John could say anything else, he left with an angry expression, but the hurried back looked inexplicably guilty.
He ran away, and it was naturally impossible for the people at his table to stay.
The middle-aged man didn't expect to lose such a big face, his face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, he snorted coldly, and then led the people away in a hurry.
After they left, the restaurant returned to its usual appearance.
Old John returned to the kitchen, and the lights on the stage were turned on again, and many singers were eager to try.
However, at this moment, Ye Cang did not have the mood of admiration before, but instead had a heavy expression.
Seeing his appearance, Nick couldn't help but comfort him: "Although that is your compatriot, everyone will not blame you for his behavior. Every race will have noble people, and there will be inferior ones." Man, you don't have to take it too seriously."
"Thank you, Nick." Ye Cang forced a smile.
Shen Huai patted the back of Ye Cang's hand lightly under the table, he could actually understand Ye Cang's mood at the moment.
Ye Cang was not sad because he was worried about being angered, but because he had witnessed the most prosperous time of Huaguo music, so seeing the current situation, he felt even more sad.
Because of the restaurant, Ye Cang was not in the mood to continue eating, but went back to the hotel with Shen Huai early.
However, they didn't expect to meet Zhuo Feiyang and his party again in the corridor.
After they left Old John's restaurant, they should have found another place to eat and just came back.
Zhuo Feiyang recognized Ye Cang, his face suddenly became ugly, and he didn't say hello, but walked past them with a gloomy face and left.
Instead, the middle-aged man stopped: "Mr. Shen, Mr. Ye, what a coincidence! I'm An Yuanjie, the music director of China Entertainment Records. It's a pleasure to meet you."
As soon as he said it, Shen Huai remembered that when Ye Cang was in "Star of Tomorrow", China Entertainment Records wanted to sign Ye Cang, and it was the security director who called him, but Ye Cang refused later. It's nothing.
In addition to inviting finalists, the Cologne Awards will also invite well-known music companies from various countries, and it is normal for China Entertainment Records, as the largest record company in China, to be invited.
At this time, An Yuanjie was personable, and he was totally different from the embarrassed look who was kicked out of the restaurant before.
He took out his business card and handed it to the two of them. Because of Zhuo Feiyang, Ye Cang didn't have a good impression of An Yuanjie, so he acted very reluctantly.
Seeing this, Shen Huai just exchanged business cards with An Yuanjie, then excused himself and went back to the room with Ye Cang.
After returning home, Shen Huai asked Ye Cang to take a bath and rest, while he held the business card and looked at it for a long time, and finally dialed An Yuanjie's number.
-
Half an hour later, Shen Huai appeared at the bar of the hotel, and An Yuanjie waved to him.
Shen Huai's eyes flickered slightly, and then walked over.
An Yuanjie had already proficiently ordered a glass of wine for him, and said with a smile: "I didn't know Mr. Shen's identity before, and I offended him a lot when I said it. Please don't take it to heart. This glass of wine will be regarded as my apology." .”
Shen Huai smiled: "It's okay."
"That's good." After An Yuanjie finished speaking, he casually chatted with Shen Huai about the scenery of City C, rambling on and on without getting to the point.
Shen Huai was not in a hurry. An Yuanjie was clearly waiting for them in the corridor before. He is the music director of China Entertainment Records. There is no need to be afraid of Shen Huai's identity like others.
So his purpose is more interesting.
The two chatted for a while, before An Yuanjie said: "To be honest, Mr. Shen's reputation as the God of Wealth is well known in the industry, but the entertainment circle is not easy to mix with." .”
Shen Huai's hand holding the cup paused slightly, but with a smile on his face: "This is the challenge, isn't it?"
An Yuanjie laughed loudly: "Mr. Shen is right. From An's point of view, even if you change your identity, you are still the God of Wealth. Otherwise, how could you discover Ye Cang's potential and promote him to where he is now?" ?”
Shen Huai didn't like him talking about Ye Cang in that contemptuous tone, and his face was slightly cold: "Ye Cang didn't rely on me to praise him, he has the strength to achieve what he is today."
An Yuanjie showed a mysterious smile and shook his head: "Mr. Shen, Ye Cang's strength is very strong. It can even be said that he is a rare genius, but so what? Without you behind him, he It may not be able to go smoothly to the present.”
Shen Huai heard that there was something in his words, and his heart cooled down, but his face remained calm: "Director An may wish to speak directly if he has something to say."
An Yuanjie approached Shen Huai slightly, and said in a low voice, "Since Mr. Shen said so, I'll make it clear directly. I guarantee that the singers under your banner will go smoothly in the future, but please don't meddle in other people's business, Mr. Shen." , some things are better not to know than to know."
Shen Huai's eyes immediately turned cold, but he restrained his anger, and said, "So, it really is you who have been dealing with Ye Cang behind his back?"
Before Shen Huai sent people to investigate the suppressed new singers, after arriving in C City, his people sent him some basic information.
Shen Huai didn't pay much attention at the time, and only then did he realize that these singers have in common that none of them are singers from China Entertainment, and some of them are said to have contacted China Entertainment before, but they didn't sign a contract for some reason. .
Now combined with An Yuanjie's words, it is obvious that China Entertainment is playing tricks behind the scenes.
Shen Huai remembered that when he was in "Tomorrow's Star", Tang Ruoyi, the female singer of China Entertainment, admired Ye Cang very much, and later invited him to join China Entertainment many times.
I'm afraid Tang Ruoyi also knows some inside information. She may have invited Ye Cang many times because she was worried that Ye Cang would encounter these things after he did not sign with China Entertainment, which would waste his talent.
An Yuanjie didn't answer directly, but asked instead: "In Mr. Shen's opinion, what do these entertainers in the entertainment circle really represent?"
Before Shen Huai could speak, An Yuanjie replied by himself: "It's a commodity."
Shen Huai clenched his fists.
An Yuanjie said nonchalantly: "A five-point artist can be marketed to nine points. The public doesn't care if they hear an excellent song. As long as this thing is popular, they will follow suit and buy it. The same is true for artists. On the contrary Yes, no matter how potential an artist is, before they grow up, they are just chicks just hatched."
"The public is ignorant. They don't think independently, but follow the trend. When the whole public opinion thinks that this person is not good, how many people can maintain independent thinking, distinguish the truth from the false, and become a Stranger defense?"
Shen Huai didn't speak.
Seeing this, An Yuanjie said, "Mr. Shen, you are a myth in the venture capital circle. You should know better than me that the people who hold the key are always only a few people in the upper circle, while the investors at the bottom are just people who can be picked up at will. They are just sacrificed worker ants."
At this point, Shen Huai has fully understood the reason for An Yuanjie's visit. I am afraid that he sent someone to investigate the suppression of the new singer, which has already alarmed China Entertainment Records. The other party does not want him to continue to investigate, and does not want to offend someone like Shen It was a huge monster, so I reminded him vaguely through An Yuanjie's mouth.
If Shen Huai insisted on investigating, they might not be able to do anything to Shen Huai, but the artists under Shen Huai would not have such luck, and Shen Huai himself would have to be cautious.
After An Yuanjie finished speaking, he lightly touched the cup to Shen Huai's, and then drank it in one gulp: "Mr. Shen, please think about it carefully, see you later."
After he finished speaking, he turned and left the bar.
When he returned to the room, he dialed the phone, and it was Feng Yankai, the current president of China Entertainment Records, on the other end of the phone.
An Yuanjie said respectfully: "President, I have already seen Shen Huai."
Feng Yankai snorted through his nose: "What did he say?"
An Yuanjie said, "He didn't say anything."
Feng Yankai was a little displeased: "It is true that his Shen family has a big business, but he is just getting started in the entertainment industry. If I didn't want to make things big and attract the attention of those old people from the Music Association, I really wouldn't be afraid of him." What."
An Yuanjie quickly responded.
Feng Yankai was a little impatient: "Okay, let's not talk about this, didn't I ask you to take care of Zhuo Feiyang? What kind of trouble is he doing?"
An Yuanjie quickly told him what happened in Old John's restaurant.
Feng Yankai said in a cold voice: "I don't know how to copy this trash. I don't know how to copy someone who is less popular. If I want to sell a talent set, I have to have something in my stomach anyway. He makes troubles all day long, and the public relations department is busy wiping his ass. too busy."
An Yuanjie was trained like a grandson, he scolded Zhuo Feiyang again in his heart, but said obediently on his face: "But Zhuo Feiyang is still very popular in China, many fans like him, What's more, it's across the sea, and no one knows that he copied it. On the contrary, it's an all-English album. Netizens think it's very compelling, and sales should be good by then."
When he said this, Feng Yankai seemed to be in a better mood: "Okay, you have arranged this matter. Let him come to City C this time to be gilded. If he causes trouble again, the company wants another one." It's not that he can't praise it, let him stop treating himself like an onion!"
An Yuanjie: "Yes, yes."
After hanging up the phone, An Yuanjie breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes fell on the shortlist on the table, he chuckled lightly, his face was full of superiority.
After all, for musicians, the most unbearable thing is plagiarism.
Zhuo Feiyang's face flushed red: "You are talking nonsense! Why do you say I plagiarized!"
Old John was not afraid, and sneered: "The structure and melody of your song are exactly the same as Trista Hall's song "Darkness" in 2005. Since you said you wrote it yourself, how dare you write it? Don’t dare to write out the score on the spot, let’s compare it?”
