1990: Starting From Baojia Street

Chapter 402 A Combination that Will Not Disappoint

While the two were chatting, Xu Guanwen heard someone playing with the cassette player at the scene, and curiously asked Zhou Yan, "Has the soundtrack for this movie been finished? I think the media is paying more attention to this."

The soundtracks of Zhou Yan's movies are bound to attract attention.

Every time he releases a new movie, not to mention the box office performance, the soundtrack of the movie will definitely sell well.

Of the three films he has made since his debut, only "The Sixth Sense" has a less popular soundtrack, while the soundtracks of the other films are widely spread.

Zhou Yan said with a smile, "I've already done some of it, but I have to wait until the movie is finished to do the rest."

"Will the song you wrote for neon singer Akina Nakamori be included in the new movie?"

Zhou Yan was quite surprised, "Do you still know this song?"

"I happened to notice two days ago that Akina Nakamori's new song was being promoted. I saw the promotion saying that the song will be released in Hong Kong tomorrow."

"It seems like these two days."

Zhou Yan has been busy filming during this time, and he doesn't care much about the release of Akina Nakamori's new songs.

The single "Snow Flower" will be released simultaneously in Mainland China, Xiangjiang and Neon, but the versions are different. Although they both contain the same three songs, the versions released in Mainland China and Xiangjiang all contain Chinese versions of the songs.

Speaking of which, the neon version obviously lacks sincerity, because except for "Snow Flower", the other two songs in it are old songs and new ones.

Moreover, the two new songs were songs that were not very popular before.

"The song sung by Akina Nakamori has nothing to do with my new movie. Otherwise, it would be impossible for her to release it now."

All episodes in "Space Traveler" will be released after the movie is released.

Xu Guanwen nodded, "That's right. I originally thought that I might be able to hear the episode of the new movie in advance."

"That will only disappoint you."

"I'm not the only one who's disappointed. I read news reports and speculated that Akina Nakamori's new song might be an interlude in your movie."

Zhou Yan smiled and said nothing. He was not sure whether the media made their own guesses or whether it was deliberately guided by Tomson.

After all, Zhou Yan's new movie has been quite popular recently. If the new song can be related to the new movie, it will definitely help sales.

Of course, even if Tomson did it deliberately, Zhou Yan wouldn't be angry. It's normal for publicity.

In fact, the fact that Nakamori Akira's new song "Snow Flower" is related to Zhou Yan's new movie has nothing to do with Tomson.

Although Liang Youxing also knew that involving Zhou Yan's new movie would have a very positive effect on the release of Akina Nakamori's new songs, Liang Youxing did not have the courage to do this.

Tomson's music department only accounts for a small part of the entire Tomson, and this part basically serves Zhou Yan.

Back then, Xu Feng set up the music department just to sign Zhou Yan, and Xu Feng had always regarded Zhou Yan as his treasure. Of course, Liang Youxing didn't dare to put his idea on Zhou Yan's head easily.

This matter is entirely the work of those entertainment reporters. They don't have any evidence. They are just speculating. Just because "Snow Flower" was composed by Zhou Yan, the two things are connected together.

By the way, I also wrote about the scandal between Zhou Yan and Nakamori Akina.

Regarding Zhou Yan's scandal, entertainment reporters in Xiangjiang wrote a lot.

From the earliest Zhang Manyu to later Wang Zuxian and Kudo Shizuka, any woman who has contact with Zhou Yan will have a few lines arranged.

The key is always to arrange a few, and there is never any real action. After a long time, the audience will get tired.

Therefore, as soon as Akina Nakamori came out, she was assigned.

Regarding the scandal between herself and Zhou Yan, Akina Nakamori also saw it on the news. She was angry and a little guilty at the same time.

Since what happened that night, her relationship with Zhou Yan and Kudo Shizuka has changed.

She tried her best not to think about it, but she couldn't help but think about it.

Kudo Shizuka's reaction to seeing the news was very different from hers. Not only was Kudo Shizuka not angry at all, she laughed and hugged her shoulders, "Akina, did you see what it said? It said you and Zhou Yan were together. ”

"These reporters are always scribbling, you know."

"Of course I know, and they don't even think about it. With your current level of Chinese, if you fall in love with Zhou Yan, you may need to find a translator to help you communicate."

These words made Akina Nakamori a little unconvinced, "Actually, my Chinese level has improved now."

"Although it has improved, it has not reached the point where I can fall in love." Shizuka Kudo said with a smile.

Akina Nakamori bit her lip and thought, what level of Chinese is required to fall in love with Zhou Yan?

Perhaps Shizuka has the most say in this matter.

She was basically certain that Shizuka was in love with Zhou Yan, but she just didn't know when the two got together.

Was Shizuka's Chinese already very good when they started getting together?

Akina Nakamori was thinking wildly, Shizuka Kudo thought she was affected by the news, so she smiled and comforted her, "Don't worry about these boring news, your new song will be released tomorrow, and it will definitely get better and better from now on." As good as ever.”

Hearing this, Akina Nakamori smiled and shook her head, "I feel like I have no desires and desires now. After experiencing many things, I no longer have any special ideas. I can sing the song "Snow Flower". I’m very happy, and I’m not particularly concerned about whether the song will be a hit.”

"That won't do. I got this song for you with great difficulty. It must be a big hit. And I believe it will be a big hit, unless the listeners' ears are broken."

Kudo Shizuka's words touched Akina Nakamori. When she was down and out, Akina Nakamori helped her a lot and stayed with her all the time.

"Thank you, Shizuka."

"If you want to thank me, please treat me to dinner tonight."

"No problem."

...

"Snow Flower" is more popular in Japan than in Hong Kong. Although Akina Nakamori has been down and out recently and her popularity is much lower than before, a lean camel is bigger than a horse.

After all, Akina Nakamori was once glorious and basically stood at the top of the Japanese pop music industry. The things that happened in the middle made her lose a lot of fans, but there are still many people who continue to support her.

In addition, the song "Snow Flower" itself is very popular in Japan.

After Zhou Yan played this song on the show, it attracted a lot of attention. Later, Qingyinfang continued to tour in Japan and played this song every time.

So when the news of the release of the song "Snow Flower" came out, it was highly anticipated. Listeners who liked this song wanted to hear whether this song would work after being made into a song.

It doesn't mean that a good song can definitely be made into a song.

Many very good songs feel wrong when they are made into songs and lose their original flavor.

However, Zhou Yan's songs have successful cases in the past, and there are quite a lot of them.

The earliest "Forever Together", "If Love Has God's Will", and the later "Yellow" and "Young and Beautiful" were all great successes.

People also hope that this time "Snow Flower" can be like those songs.

On September 11, Tanaka Jianji got up early in the morning and rode his bike to Ibuki Suzune's house.

Ibuki Suzune had been waiting for Tanaka Maji's arrival at the door in advance. Tanaka Maji's car didn't even stop, but just slowed down a little, and Ibuki Suzune stepped into the back seat.

Sitting steadily on the back seat, Ibuki Suzune hugged Tanaka Maji's waist tightly. The two were together in the second year of college.

Holding her boyfriend's waist and breathing the morning air, Ibuki Suzune felt very comfortable.

Feeling that Tanaka Maji kept speeding up, she reminded him, "Be careful, don't be so anxious, the bookstore must not be open."

"But Kazuhiro and the others may have arrived. I haven't seen that guy for a long time."

Their small group of four has maintained their relationship for so many years, but Hiramatsu Kazuhiro went abroad to study and just came back two days ago.

This time, they took advantage of the release of Akina Nakamori's new song and made an appointment to meet together.

Ibuki Suzune said disapprovingly, "He is always late, so he must not be here now, but Rina may have already arrived."

Speaking of Rina, Ibuki Suzune felt sorry for her.

When they were playing together, they all thought they would become two couples, she and Tanaka Kenji, and Sato Rina and Hiramatsu Kazuhiro.

Unexpectedly, Hiramatsu Kazuhiro suddenly went abroad to study.

Although Ibuki Suzune said so, Tanaka Kenji did not slow down his bicycle at all.

They soon arrived at the door of the bookstore where they often met before, and before they knew it, the bookstore was already open.

The owner, Nangong Huizi, was putting up posters at the door of the bookstore. When she saw Tanaka Jianji and Ibuki Suzune, she raised her lips and said, "Why are you here first? Where is Hiramatsu?"

Tanaka Jianji said in surprise, "Hiramatsu, Huizi, did you know he was back?"

"Of course, he called me last night and asked me to come early to open the door for you today. Otherwise, I should still be sleeping at this time." Nangong Huizi yawned, "I'm not young anymore, and I'm not as energetic as you."

Nangong Huizi is not old, but compared to a few years ago, she is now a mother of two children. Her daily life is full of trivial matters. She has slowly let go of the bookstore and let her younger brother do it.

But Nangong Huizi was still very happy to see Tanaka Jianji and the others.

Nangong's bookshelf always gathers many fans of Zhou Yan, because Nangong Huizi plays Zhou Yan's music almost every day, and always puts Zhou Yan's albums on the front shelf of the first floor hall.

But among the many fans, the four-member group of Tanaka Jianji and his friends is very impressive.

First of all, these four people are all very good-looking. Although it has to be admitted that Nangong Huizi is also a person who judges people by appearance.

In addition to being good-looking, the four-member group can always get some rare things.

For example, when the single "yellow" was first released in the United States, they brought a tape and asked her to play it in the store.

Later, when "young and beautiful" was released, it was the same.

They are always able to get singles or albums in advance ahead of the domestic market.

There are also some things that Japan does not have in China, which they can get, and they even got a pirated version of Zhou Yan's live recording of a concert in London.

At that time, this concert had just been held.

In other words, what they did was illegal.

Of course, although she knew there was a risk of breaking the law, Nangong Huizi didn't mind, because she could understand the feelings of Tian Zhongjian and others.

"Sister Nangong, you are not old at all, it feels like you are still the same as when we were in high school."

"Although your words make me feel good, the money for the single still needs to be paid." Nangong Huizi smiled.

When she mentioned the single, Tian Zhongjian immediately asked, "Where is the single?"

"Of course it's on the first row of bookshelves." Nangong Huizi smiled and said as a matter of course.

Tian Zhongjian quickly ran in and found Akina Nakamori's latest single "Snow Flower" on the first row of bookshelves.

The moment he got the single, Tian Zhongjian even felt a little excited. Akina Nakamori is her favorite singer, and Zhou Yan is his favorite musician.

He had imagined these two people working together countless times before, but he didn't expect the dream to come true so soon.

When Tian Zhongjianji opened the package and took out the CD player to listen, Nangong Huizi smiled and said, "Use the speakers in our store to listen, that way you will feel better."

The whole set of audio equipment in the store cost Nangong Huizi millions of neon coins, and the effect is very good.

The reason why so many people like to listen to music in her store is also closely related to this set of audio equipment.

Tan Zhongjianji nodded and ran to put the single CD into the player.

Soon, a soothing piano solo sounded.

In fact, it can't be considered a solo. In addition to the piano, you can also hear the sound of another instrument, but the sound of that instrument is very similar to the sound of the piano, and it is perfectly integrated with the piano sound.

It's a bit like a triangle, but Tian Zhongjianji and others are not sure.

Maybe because the name of the song is "Snow Flower", so when hearing this prelude, Tian Zhongjianji and others naturally thought of the sound of snowflakes falling.

Does snowflakes make a sound when they fall?

Tanaka Jianji had never heard it before, but he always felt that there should be a sound when snowflakes fall to the ground, and it should be like the sound of the prelude.

The melody of the prelude is not a new song, but is directly taken from the song "Snow Flower", and it is a relatively "climax" section.

After a while, the violin came in, and soon Akina Nakamori's clear but not soft voice sounded.

As soon as the first sentence of the song came out, the eyes of the three people lit up.

That's right, just this sentence caught the ears of the three of them.

Nangong Huizi also stopped what she was doing, stood at the door and listened to the new song quietly, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up. It was indeed Zhou Yan and Akina Nakamori, a combination that would never disappoint people. (End of this chapter)
