Chapter 271: Provoking the entire music scene, and Lao Wu

On the Chinese Internet, fans are discussing how to get players from the five eras to listen to the most authentic and moving music.
The owners of the flea market became famous without even realizing it.
Many people go to flea markets at night to buy CD players and old radios.
Those videos of people who were lucky enough to be able to still start up their decades-old gadgets became popular in the middle of the night.
Everyone knows one thing very well, Han Zhou's album sales will be very high.
Han Zhou wants to make back all the money he earned from releasing the songs for free!
Do you want to listen to the original feeling? Then you have to buy tapes, CDs, USB flash drives, but these are not convenient, so you still have to buy electronic albums.
And it is only the right to play the APP, not the right to download.
But Han Zhou's fans are extremely strong.
Because they have been listening to songs for free for four years, it's time to pay.
But on the Internet, people discuss completely different things.
They don’t understand side A, so they have to choose the part they can understand first.
On Twitter, the hot search #Number One in Various Countries’ Music Charts# also topped the hot search list.
"I'm not bragging, the songs 'Random Bangs in the Box' and 'Es rappelt im Karton' sound so catchy, they topped the German Music Chart in just two hours. Not to mention the album, the single has sold nearly two million copies in just two hours!!!"
"Yes, everyone, go listen to "Es rappelt im Karton"!"
Fans in Sakura Country were so excited: "You know nothing about music. The best song on the B side is definitely the Japanese song "Lemon"!!! It's so good!!!"
"If you don't understand, why did the title of Han Shen's Sakura Country song be in English? Love from India."
Sakura Country fans: "Baga, go eat your curry, won't Han Shen be jealous of you guys for writing songs for you guys?"
A Sanguo fans: "Haha, last month, Han Shen released a song in the A San style, you guys are just short of knowledge and don't know it."
French Braised Chicken fan: "I listened to it and felt that the rhythms of the songs from Germany and Sakura Country were more exciting, but they were definitely written by Han Shen without much thought. Look at our French Braised Chicken's number one song "If You Don't Exist" and "Et si tu n'existe pas", which are good songs and will definitely become classics in the future."
Maozi fans: "After "Lullaby", Han Shen's new song "Opera 2" definitely represents the limit of his singing skills. The dolphin-like singing is amazing!!!"
Many people are comparing which songs Han Shen wrote for fans in his own country are better or worse.
After listening to the song, many people felt that this song from Opera 2, "Опера№2", was definitely the most attentive and best. It was estimated that it took him one or two months to record this song.
After all, it's too scary and too difficult to sing.
But everyone insisted and analyzed from various angles why the song Han Shen wrote for himself was the best.
On the Billboard, Han Zhou dominated the four charts: first on the electronic music chart, first on the pop song chart, first on the folk song chart, and first on the rock chart.
At the same time, the first to fourth songs on the Billboard charts are these four songs.
The singers in the United States are not fools. After hearing the news that Han Zhou released an album, the more successful singers were afraid that their sales would be affected, so they all stopped releasing songs.
The result was that Han Zhou slaughtered his way through the list without any hindrance.
After the album went on sale, it directly landed in the top four of the Billboard charts.
Many fans in the United States logged into Interlan to buy the album a few hours ago.
As a result, the standard for platinum albums in Interlan was obviously too high, but it was still completed in just a few hours.
But when it was launched in the United States, the software was stuck and could not be used.
Many people waited nearly ten minutes after buying the tickets before they could hear the songs.
The theme of Han Zhou's B side this time is actually the same as that of the A side.
It is also divided according to era.
The first song is "Eagle Song" "EI condor pasa". In the previous life, this song was originally a South American folk song. Later it was translated into English and became popular in Europe and the United States in a short time.
It also led to the second folk music boom.
It was also at that time that many Chinese songs became popular in the United States, such as "Rose Rose I Love You".
In this world, this song can be said to be the continuation of "The Last of the Mohicans" and "Beyond the Tears".
Of course, in previous lives the order was reversed.
But the earliest fans who fell in love with Han Zhou because of "The Last of the Mohicans", Han Zhou's first batch of fans in North America and South America, burst into tears when they heard this song.
Three years have passed, and Han Shen still remembers those years! He still remembers us and puts us in the first song.
Of course, they pretended not to see the eight Chinese songs on side A, so this song was indeed the first one.
But even if someone argues, they will rebuke: "Han Shen is Chinese, so it's normal to put Chinese songs first. Why are you still arguing?"
Someone was not convinced and replied: "He wants to make money in North America so badly, but he is not willing to make any gesture, and you are still licking him?"
Han Zhou's old fan in North America: "I laughed. Han Shen needs money? His movie earns hundreds of millions of dollars. Which singer can make so much money? Do you know how many global sales of his book are? Do you know how much Universal Pictures offered to buy the film rights of "And Then There Were None"? Han Shen didn't even look at it. Han Shen likes to make money, but unlike you, Han Shen is already very rich. Only beggars need to make gestures and beg for mercy. The B-side of Han Shen's "Times" is already absolute sincerity. I can clearly feel that Han Shen loves me!"
Han Zhou’s North American Old Fan No. 2: “Well said, but I want to correct you. Han Shen doesn’t love you, he loves us.”
Han Zhou's North American fan number 3: "He really is, I'm crying, wuwuwu~"
The theme of the album "Era" is set here, so the second song after folk music is the representative of the next era, rock.
"Heartbreak Hotel", the king of rock history!
He is also the king of pop music history.
In the last era, folk music was very popular and all white people in America listened to it. At the same time, blues jazz was wildly popular among black people.
Bill, the original father of rock and roll, discovered that white fans would be able to accept rhythm and blues if it was sung in the form of folk songs.
Thus, original rock and roll was born.
When original rock music was born, it was the era when pop art (abstract art) was popular, so pop culture was also involved.
The original rock music was formed.
But, to be honest, rock music in this era almost came to an end and died on the spot.
At this time, Elvis appeared in the public eye.
Elvis started out as a folk singer, but he was also a movie star and wrote pop songs.
During his performing career, he found that the only way to further express folk songs was to enter the field of rock.
So he transformed from a folk singer to a rock singer.
His experience in pop songwriting helped him integrate pop music into rock music.
From then on, rock music began to become popular all over the world and began to develop into various forms.
Elvis, while performing rock and roll, played the guitar, sang, and performed a novel dance, which quickly conquered all the audience.
It became the origin of the four words "pop superstar".
Han Zhou represents the rock era with his masterpiece "Heartbreak Hotel".
The third song is "as long as you love me", a type of music that is invincible all over the world, youth pop music.
Representing the era of pop music!
The last English song was an electronic music song, "Nevada".
In the area of ​​clicks and listening, there may be other very strong electronic music, even stronger than this song, but in the area of ​​spread and popularity, only this song can be on par with "Fade". Since "Fade" has already been written, this time it is "Nevada".
If side A is the history of the development of Chinese songs in Han Zhou’s mind.
Then the B side is the history of the development of .
To be honest, Han Zhou actually wanted to come up with the German nursery rhyme "Little Crocodile" to replace "Bang in the Box", so that the theme of "Times" would be more complete.
But considering that fans might ask for a refund after spending money to buy the song and finding out it was a children's song, Han Zhou did not do so.
In fact, the main reason was that no matter how good Han Zhou and An Lan's singing skills were, they could not sing children's songs, so Han Zhou gave up this plan.
Although the B and A sides of Han Zhou are the same in theme, they actually give people completely different feelings.
If you listen carefully to each song on Side A, you can definitely feel the sincerity and the voice of an era.
Feel what a classic song is.
But the B side doesn't feel like that.
The B side gives people a very weird feeling, as if it was put together just to make money.
But... every song taken out individually and placed in its own market is invincible.
Very good at fighting. Super good at fighting.
Professionals who take a taxi to listen to these songs feel their scalps tingling!
Carl, the lead singer of the Wasps, was practicing the song for the semi-finals. During the break, the drummer turned on "Heartbreak Hotel".
As soon as this song started playing, the guitarist who was tuning his guitar stopped and listened quietly.
Carl looked up at the drummer's phone with a confused look on his face.
"What song?"
Drummer: "'Heartbreak Hotel' from Han Zhou's album."
Karl took a deep breath: “How…is it possible…”
Rock is a development trend and also an attitude.
Therefore, once a person enters the rock field, it is very difficult to turn back.
Generally speaking, all mature rock singers are professional nitpickers.
Now, if you ask Carl to write a pop rock song, he simply can’t do it.
In the past decade, whenever the Wasps wanted to release a pop rock song, they would buy the song.
Their entire band evolved into a classic rock band.
Carl had just heard Han Zhou's "We Will Rock You" and couldn't imagine how Han Zhou wrote "Heartbreak Hotel"!
"I have tried at least a hundred times to write an early rock song, but no matter how I write, it doesn't have enough folk flavor, and the blues is not obvious enough."
"How did he write it?"
The drummer spread his hands and said, "Don't ask me about music theory. How would I know? I don't understand musical notation."
Carl: “…”
Guitarist: "Is there a possibility that Han Zhou is Chinese after all, so when he was exposed to European and American songs, he learned them in chronological order, so this song was written by him a few years ago, not now."
Carl spread his hands: "But if he is new to American music, shouldn't he listen to pop songs first, then slowly learn in depth, and finally listen to those early classics in history?"
"How could someone write a song that has such a strong early pop-rock flavor? This flavor... is stronger than the songs I listened to when I was a kid, as if this song is the first pop-rock song."
The guitarist thought for a moment and said, "Is there a possibility?"
"When Han Zhou first learned about American music, he first listened to popular music, and then thought it was all rubbish, so he started listening to the classics from history?"
Carl: “…”
Damn, you are so cruel. Aren’t the popular music nowadays songs of people like us? And you actually say that you are trash.
But Carl thought about it carefully, and remembered that he was hit on the "Singing" stage and his scalp was numb and tears were streaming down his face. "The truth can often hurt people more than a knife."
Drummer: "What are you guys sighing about? We've only just started. Listen to this song."
The drummer started up "Song of the Eagle."
Carl's entire body was torn apart.
This style, this purity, this is something that at least my grandfather's generation could write, an absolute classic American folk song.
A dead form of music.
How is this possible? How the hell did someone write this?!
This kind of thing is like a martial arts novelist who has read countless new martial arts novels and insists on trying to write an old martial arts novel.
How can this be written?
As I was writing, I started to practice the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms with my internal energy.
How can this be controlled?
This is only possible if you find a writer who has never read new martial arts novels but has an extremely strong talent for writing, and ask him to read the old martial arts novels first, then write the old martial arts novels, and then learn the new martial arts novels.
Karl was sure at this time: “It seems that this is the truth.”
"So... Han Zhou feels that our generation of American singers and bands are all rubbish..."
Guitarist: "That's right, I feel the same way."
"It's a pity that I can't write songs, otherwise I would be the one who became famous."
Carl looked at the guitarist. “Are you angry?”
Guitarist: "I'm not angry. Why should I be angry?"
Carl: "If you twist it any further, the E string will break, and your ugly face will be artificially reshaped."
The guitarist looked down and realized that he had been adding intensity to the strings.
He stopped and said angrily, "Damn it, I am really angry! Why is it that a Chinese is the one who inherits the legacy of the previous generation of superstars!"
When Carl was lamenting that he had the same feeling, he heard his guitarist continue to say: "Carl, try your best, try your best, it's all your fault."
Carl: “…”
Side B is just a weird collection for the average fan.
Each song is very good when taken alone, but the style is weird.
But for people in the industry, it was like a naked provocation, a contempt, and a declaration of war.
Every time I listened to a song, I felt that man taunting me in my ear: "There's not even one person who can fight, is this all?"
"Are you really that bad? Then I can only compare you to the two deceased world pop music leaders, Leslie the King of Songs and Michael the King of Pop."
Searching for the enemy in the void.
Because he is too powerful, he is as lonely as the snow and can't find an opponent, so he can only confront the history book head-on.
This terrifying pressure made it difficult for all professional singers and industry insiders in the United States to breathe .
No one dares to comment on Han Zhou's "Times".
The album "Times" is here.
It's like a wall.
In the glorious history on the back, who is stronger between those tough guys and Han Zhou? The outcome is still unknown because there is no way to have a head-on confrontation.
The modern pop music army on the front side of the wall was completely wiped out.
Oh, it’s like turning your back on everyone.
Who is the peak at the end of the music world? All the songs become empty when I see Han Zhou.

The set of "Jurassic Park".
Many people think Han Zhou is very busy.
After all, the box office of "Dying to Survive" is madly hitting new heights.
"Time" was a global hit, dominating all the top ten hot searches on Weibo.
And if you invest a lot in science fiction movies, there must be a lot of work!
But in fact, industrialization is about pressing a button to solve the problem. In fact, it is very leisurely before entering the intense plot shooting.
Han Zhou is not on the set now, but in the office of the park.
A young director was sitting awkwardly in front of Han Zhou, being scrutinized by him.
Although he is said to be a young director, he is not young anymore, he is already thirty-six years old.
Compared to Han Zhou, he is much older.
But compared with other directors, he is definitely a young director.
Han Zhou looked at him while checking his phone.
What was being broadcast on the mobile phone was the debut work of this young director.
The youth film "The Breeze Leads Us Through the Dandelions" was filmed three years ago.
Han Zhou spoke up: "Wu Hengyong?"
Wu Hengyong was a little at a loss. He nodded, but then felt that it was not solemn enough, so he nodded again: "Yes, Director Han, I am Wu Hengyong."
Han Zhou smiled and said, "Don't be so nervous. Chen Xiaoyong said you are very good. Why haven't you made other movies in the past three years?"
Wu Hengyong lowered his head: "I want to make a science fiction movie, but...there are no companies in China that make science fiction movies."
Wu Hengyong's youth film, as his first film, earned more than 300 million yuan at the box office.
With a box office of more than 300 million at the beginning, it can at least reach 500 million this year.
In fact, it is a huge profit.
As long as he is willing to continue making movies of the same type, even those with romantic themes, there will definitely be many people giving him opportunities and investing in him.
But he wanted to make a science fiction film.
This is very difficult.
Han Zhou raised the paper script in his hand and asked, "Did you write these two scripts?"
Wu Hengyong nodded: "I wrote it, I can prove it. If necessary, I can spend half a year to write a new one, and the quality will definitely be higher."
As he spoke, he picked up the computer next to him and said, "I only gave two scripts to Brother Yong. I have three more scripts here, all of which I wrote in the past ten years since I graduated."
Han Zhou interrupted: "You are amazing. I read your director's log and the shooting plan for this script you wrote. It is very comprehensive. There are basically no science fiction directors of your level in China."
Although there are not many science fiction movies in China, it does not mean that no one is researching them.
What many people lack is opportunities.
Han Zhou tapped his knees with his fingers.
Wu Hengyong, this person is definitely a talent.
But he had only paper knowledge and no experience.
Every science fiction film is very expensive to make, and if it fails, it may even cause a major film company to never recover.
Han Zhou really wants Wu Hengyong to join the New World, but he is a little hesitant.
Wu Hengyong knew that what lay before him was his only chance in his life.
Apart from Hanzhou and New World, no other company in the country will make science fiction films on a large scale.
If it doesn't work today, then it's over in this life.
Seeing that Han Zhou was still hesitating, Wu Hengyong opened a document and displayed it while talking nonstop.
To be honest, this scene is very much like someone studying finance looking for a big boss to invest in a project.
In fact, the big bosses don’t look at the feasibility of the project at all. There are too many such people and too many such projects across the country.
However, Wu Hengyong and the others were unable to realize this and just wanted to show Han Zhou more of their stuff.
However, Han Zhou heard something different when Wu Hengyong was talking.
I had this feeling when I read his scripts.
He has a strong cultural orientation.
The settings of his science fiction scripts are different from the mainstream ones in the world.
They have a very strong sense of family and country, a love for life, and a love for the earth.
This feeling is too strong.
After hearing this, Han Zhou decided to keep him.
There are nine people in New World, the eldest is Han Zhou, the second is Chen Xiaoyong who specializes in photography, the third is Liu Tiantan who is in charge of animation and special effects technology, the fourth is Wang Chao who is in charge of variety shows, the sixth is Lu Jin who is in charge of idols, the seventh is Yang Hong who is in charge of coaching artists, the eighth is Gan Tuo who has not returned to the company yet, but is already the boss of the largest entertainment newspaper in the country, and the ninth is Zhang Jiuquan who is in charge of martial arts.
The only thing Han Zhou is lacking is a leader for the science fiction project.
Wu Hengyong, what a coincidence.
However, Wu Hengyong did not know that his characteristics, which were usually called "little pink" and "unfashionable" by many of his peers in the industry, helped him successfully get a job that he could not even imagine in this life or the next.
Wu Hengyong spoke nonstop for four hours, and Han Zhou took it as a break.
After all, you don't have to see those two idiots, Wu Li and Coppola, for these four hours.
After listening to the four-hour lecture, Han Zhou asked: "You are thirty-five, can you still learn?"
"Learn..." Wu Hengyong was stunned, not knowing what it meant.
Han Zhou: "For Jurassic Park, you can be an assistant director and learn from me. After one movie, I will give you a script. If you can make it, you will be one of the main directors of New World in the future. If you can't make it, you can find another job."
After hearing this, Wu Hengyong was so excited that he burst into tears.
I don’t know where this feeling of grievance comes from, and I don’t know why I feel like venting my grievance today.
Crying loudly.
Outside the door, Chen Xiaoyong poked his head out and mouthed, "Brother Han! What do you mean?"
Han Zhou stood up and looked at Wu Hengyong: "We will officially start work tomorrow."
As he walked, Han Zhou smiled. He had collected all the cards from one to nine.
