Chapter 343 Invitation to Song

The Netflix Entertainment board of directors meeting just ended, and it seemed unremarkable.

Suri finished the scene and was about to go back to the hotel to rest for a while.

He made an appointment with Reed Hastings of the parent company for lunch and talked about expanding overseas markets and subsequent listings.

Especially going public.

The market valuation of Netflix Entertainment is already reaching US$8 billion.

Many investors who hold shares in the parent company are eager to push for its listing to avoid ending up in vain.

Many companies that were particularly impressive when they first appeared have ended up in vain. The experience and lessons of blood and tears are everywhere, causing investors to often lack patience.

Suri can understand their thinking, but does not support listing it in the short term.

Nowadays, Netflix Entertainment has enough cash. Even if it gets a large amount of money from IPO financing, there are no good investment channels, and it cannot be left in the bank to earn interest.

He feels that at least we have to wait until the valuation exceeds 20 billion, or even 30 billion U.S. dollars, before releasing shares at that time without losing too much.

On the way back to the hotel by car.

Jiang Jiaya flipped through the small book and told:

"There is a record company from Taiwan that actually wants to invite you to sing a Chinese song. It seems that it will be sung at the Spring Festival Gala in the mainland. However, they can only spend a maximum of 250,000 US dollars in budget. The female singer who sings it seems to be in China. Awesome, what do you think?"

Hear this.

Su Rui looked surprised and asked, "Which female singer? Also, I'm so famous, why doesn't anyone invite me to the Spring Festival Gala?"

Jiang Jiaya thought for a while and asked, "Maybe it's because your appearance fee is too expensive and people think you won't participate?"

"...Well, there really aren't many people who dare to ask me to sing."

As soon as Su Rui finished speaking, Jiang Jiaya clarified:

"Actually, many people want to ask you to write songs, but Secretary Amanda said that you have always ignored them, so these invitations have been blocked."

"Because this time it's a Chinese song, I thought you might be interested, so I came to ask you. That singer's name is Zhang Hanshao. You probably don't know him..."

After hearing this, he smiled happily.

Suri is very familiar with this female singer. In his previous life, who couldn't sing a few lines of "Invisible Wings"?

Suddenly, many memories were brought back to him, flooding him like a tide, making him take a deep breath.

The logic of thinking and three views were all developed in China. Even after living in Los Angeles for more than 20 years, many of Suri's habits are difficult to change.

This also made it difficult for him to truly integrate into the local American circles since he was a child, and he subconsciously maintained a certain distance.

When he learned that his song was going to be performed on the Spring Festival Gala, he didn’t care at all how much money he could make from selling the song, he just said:

"I have a bit of an impression of her. I've heard a few songs online, and they seem quite interesting."

Jiang Jiaya smiled and added:

"I have to say that your Mandarin pronunciation is better than many mainlanders. I really don't understand how you practice it."

"This time, Miss Zhang, I fell in love with a short song you sang in the video. The lyrics are... On the Tropic of Love, and looking forward to seeing each other again. The sky will be clear and the heart will be warm. The sun is at the fingertips?"

All right.

Su Rui was still a little touched at first, but after listening to her singing, her mood immediately calmed down again, and she said sarcastically:

"What a girl, she's quite pretty, but it's a pity that she has such a broken voice, can any of her notes be in tune?"

"...It's amazing that you can sing."

"It's amazing. It has helped me earn hundreds of millions, and the interest compounded has turned into billions."

Suri was not teasing her and continued to tell:

"This song is not suitable for singing on the Spring Festival Gala. I will prepare another one. I will write the lyrics and let them find someone to arrange the music."

Until now, no one has asked for his songs.

With this gimmick and Zhang Hanshao's ability, he can easily become popular if he sings casually.

I have almost run out of English songs, but I remember a lot of Chinese songs.

Many of them are not suitable for Suri to sing by herself, so it would be good to sell them to others so as not to go to waste.

After returning to the hotel.

Jiang Jiaya quickly replied with an email, saying that Suri had agreed to write a song, but would have to wait a few days.

Due to time difference.

It wasn't until more than ten hours later that the record company Zhang Hanshao was signed to accidentally discovered this email.

Even the company boss was shocked when he heard the news.

My first thought was that I had met a liar, or that my employees were joking with me.

After all, it was Suri, a genius that many people could only hope to achieve.

He is obviously good at composing English songs. He took the time to write a song called "Evening Breeze Blows in My Heart", which impressed a bunch of Chinese singers. After a few months, it has remained in the top ten of the popular song lists on various websites until recently.

And those that can defeat it are basically Suri's own songs.

In addition to the English songs that have exploded around the world, there are also a large medley of self-played and self-sung songs, which have been re-edited. The quality of the songs in them has made the entire music world breathless this year...

——————————

It's called creation, but in fact Suri already has some ideas.

One is "Once Upon a Time" which has become popular all over the Internet, and the other is "Wishful" which is more suitable for the Spring Festival Gala.

"First Dream" is also good.

But Su Rui vaguely remembered that it was adapted from a Japanese song, and the specific source was not clear. In order to avoid plagiarism, it was best to keep it to herself.

If you sing it yourself, even if the original song is translated, it will most likely be said to be an adaptation. Since you are not planning to release an album anyway, others will not be able to fault it.

There are also "Invisible Wings" and "Aurora" that Zhang Hanshao himself sang, but it was so long ago that Suri couldn't remember the lyrics.

After finishing the tangle.

He decided to sing them all and let the other person choose.

then.

Another two days passed.

Zhang Hanshao, who was filming in the Mainland, fell into deep thought for a long time when faced with the 16-minute recording.

She is looking forward to Suri's work. Since she has lived in Canada for several years, she thinks she can handle even an English song.

However, such a long recording still shocked her. Her first thought was that it might not be appropriate.

Fortunately, Suri's reputation was loud enough, so Zhang Hanshao chose to put on headphones and listen to it first.

At the beginning of the recording, he introduced in Mandarin that these songs are not complete and he has been too busy recently to prepare.

Then he played and sang by himself, singing the catchy "Once Upon a Time" with a cheerful rhythm.

After hearing just a few words, Zhang Hanshao fell in love immediately.

After listening to it later, she realized that there were actually four songs in this recording, and she liked each one of them.

The girl suddenly thought to herself, what happened to the world.

He played it again from the beginning and said to himself:

"This is probably a genius. Even if some people try their best, they are not as good as him just having fun. He is indeed the most popular pop singer in the world..."
