Chapter 938 Change the song?
Ye Jiaying brought the film to participate in the Seoul International Film Festival. The organizer of the film festival has arranged for the whole reception. The reception started from the pick-up. When Ye Jiaying’s flight landed at Incheon Airport in South Korea, the reception staff of the film festival was already waiting at the exit of the arrival hall.
However, it is not only the film festival staff who came to pick up the airport this time. When Ye Jiaying and Xiao Yao walked out of the passenger passage, someone approached them before the film festival staff holding the pick-up sign.
“Sister Jiaying, hello! Welcome to Korea!” A slender, long-haired beauty enthusiastically opened her arms to Ye Jiaying, smiling and speaking fluent Chinese.
“Hello Xiuyan! Thank you for coming!” Ye Jiaying smiled and hugged the long-haired beauty in front of her. The one who came to pick up the plane was not someone else, but Hong Xiuyan, who had a good relationship with Xiao Yao.
Ye Jiaying and Hong Xiuyan co-acted in a Chinese TV series, and in the finals of the same season of “Singer”, Xiao Siqi and Xiao Yao and father and son were guest singers, and they also knew each other.
Before turning to be a director, Ye Jiaying also worked as a producer and supervisor, and has quite good connections and resources in China’s film and television circles. Knowing that Hong Xiuyan and Xiao Yao have a good relationship, Ye Jiaying also helped Hong Xiuyan get some performance opportunities in Chinese film and television dramas. In the past few years, Hong Xiuyan has participated in many film and television drama performances and has developed quite well in China. This has a certain relationship with Ye Jiaying, so the two not only know each other, but also have a very good relationship.
“Xiuyan is angry at that, you call my mother sister, shouldn’t I change my slogan to your aunt?” Xiao Yao smiled from the side.
“Of course not! The three of us are each different! You still call me angry!” Hong Xiuyan let go of Ye Jiaying, turned around and gave Xiao Yao a hug.
Hong Xiuyan knows that Ye Jiaying helped her win the opportunity to perform in China because of Xiao Yao. No matter how familiar she is with Ye Jiaying, this relationship cannot be better than with Xiao Yao. She came to the airport to pick up the plane this time, mainly because Xiao Yao came.
“Even everyone knows each name, it seems that Nu Na’s Chinese has improved a lot!” Xiao Yao smiled and hugged Hong Xiuyan back.
“Is it Ms. Ye and Mr. Chen?” At this time, two young men in suits walked over and spoke to Ye Jiaying and another film producer beside her in slightly accented English, “Hello! We are The staff from the Seoul Film Festival are here to pick you up!”
“Yes! Hello! Thank you for your hard work!” Ye Jiaying smiled and nodded, stretched out a hand to the two, and replied in English.
“This is the actor of our movie, Xiao Yao!” After the producer surnamed Chen greeted the two receptionists, Ye Jiaying pointed to Xiao Yao and introduced them to the two.
“Hello, Mr. Xiao ” The two turned to Xiao Yao, and at the same time they could see the face of the beauty beside Xiao Yao, they exclaimed in Korean, “Ah Miss Hong Xiuyan?!”
“Yes, I am Hong Xiuyan!” Hong Xiuyan smiled and said to Erren, “Ms. Ye and Mr. Xiao are my friends, so I came to the airport to pick them up, I hope it will not affect your work.”
Hong Xiuyan heard the conversation between the two and Ye Jiaying just now, and naturally knew who they were. She knew that Ye Jiaying and Xiao Yao were here to participate in the film festival, and also knew that the film festival would arrange the residence and itinerary of crew members who came to the film festival, so it was not surprising that the two appeared.
“No no,” the two smiled and waved their hands, “I didn’t expect Miss Xiuyan and Ms. Ye to be friends. No wonder they speak Chinese so well!”
“It’s nice to meet for the first time, I’m Xiao Yao!” Xiao Yao took the initiative to reach out to the two of them.
Because of Ye Jiaying’s presence, Hong Xiuyan spoke English to the staff sent by the two film festival organizers. Xiao Yao had no worries in this regard. He felt that their English sounded awkward, so she simply spoke Korean to them. .
“Hello, Mr. Xiao!” The two men bent over and shook hands with Xiao Yao. One of them exclaimed in surprise, “You speak Korean really well!”
“Let’s go to the hotel, please here!” The other person looked in several directions in the pick-up hall, and spoke to Ye Jiaying and others in English.
There is no shortage of gossip reporters in any country’s airport. Due to the recent film festival, there are a lot more gossip reporters in the international flight arrival hall of Incheon Airport than usual. Although no reporters have gathered around yet, some reporters have already raised their cameras to take pictures here, and the staff still think it’s better to leave early.
“Nuna, if it’s okay, let’s go to the hotel and sit together!” Xiao Yao said to Hong Xiuyan. People came to pick up the plane from the airport so far, so it’s not good to let Hong Xiuyan go back by herself now, so Xiao Yao sent an invitation to go to the hotel together.
“Will it interrupt your rest?” Hong Xiuyan said.
“The time difference between Yenching and Seoul is only one hour, and the flight time is only two hours. We don’t even need to run the time difference, and we don’t need to rest!” Xiao Yao laughed.
“Why not?” Hong Xiuyan turned to the two film festival staff members, “Let Ms. Ye and Mr. Xiao ride in my car, and we will drive behind you to the hotel, okay?”
“This ” the two hesitated somewhat embarrassedly. Their job is to pick up people, but they let the person they want to pick up take someone else’s car. If something goes wrong along the way, they feel that they may not be very good at dealing with each other.
“Let’s do this,” Ye Jiaying said to Hong Xiuyan, “I’m the director. It’s not a good idea to leave the rest of the crew in Xiuyan’s car. I’ll still ride in the festival organizer’s car with Brother Chen and let Xiao Yao go. Your car.”
“Okay!” Hong Xiuyan nodded and agreed.
Hong Xiuyan also saw the embarrassment of the two staff, and she asked Ye Jiaying, mother and son to take her own car, mainly because she wanted to chat with Xiao Yao on the road. Now that Xiao Yao got in her car, she was also satisfied.
Ye Jiaying told the two film festival staff again that they also nodded in agreement.
Seoul International Film Festival has no awards for actors. The most important crew member of the participating films is the director, and the most important recipient of the two film festival organizers is Ye Jiaying. For these two people, as long as Ye Jiaying rides in their car, it is not a big problem for others to ride in other people’s cars.
“Okay, Minyi, you go with me to take Xiuyan’s car.” Xiao Yao also had no objection, and turned back to Pei Minyi. When I came to Korea this time, Xiao Yao didn’t lead him, so he only brought Pei Minyi over.
After the discussion, everyone set off for the parking lot.
Hong Xiuyan came to pick up the plane with an assistant and driver. After arriving at the parking lot, Hong Xiuyan asked her assistant to drive and asked Pei Minyi to sit in the co-pilot. She sat in the back row with Xiao Yao. After the vehicle departed, Hong Xiuyan also chatted with Xiao Yao about their recent developments during the separation period.
Incheon Airport is located in Incheon, a well-known port city in South Korea, more than 50 kilometers from downtown Seoul. It took a group of people about an hour to arrive at the hotel arranged by the film festival organizer.
After helping Ye Jiaying and his party to complete the check-in procedures, and confessed some subsequent itinerary arrangements, the two film festival organizers’ staff left.
It is March. The average temperature in Yenching and Seoul is below ten degrees Celsius. It is still relatively cold, and everyone is wearing thicker clothes. After getting off the plane, Xiao Yao didn’t need to take a shower or change clothes, so he invited Hong Xiuyan into his room.
Xiao Yao’s room is a suite, with a bedroom inside and a living room outside. After Xiao Yao entered the room, he greeted Hong Xiuyan and her assistant to sit down in the living room, took two bottles of water from the mini refrigerator and handed them to them, asked them to wait a moment, and then went into the bedroom with the suitcase to pack their luggage.
Hong Xiuyan came to see Xiao Yao and Ye Jiaying this time, she also wanted to make the best of the landlord friendship and entertain Xiao Yao to play in Korea. After Xiao Yao settled down and came out of the bedroom, Hong Xiuyan also directly asked about Xiao Yao’s itinerary.
Xiao Yao came to Korea this time mainly to accompany Ye Jiaying to the film festival. Apart from finding time to visit Liu Youyuan and meet him to recount the past, Xiao Yao himself has no special work or schedule. As for the itinerary of the film festival, Xiao Yao is not quite clear, so I have to ask Ye Jiaying.
So, Xiao Yao and Hong Xiuyan sat for a while, and then went to Ye Jiaying’s room.
Hong Xiuyan did not intend to entertain Xiao Yao alone, but also wanted to entertain Ye Jiaying, so after entering Ye Jiaying’s room, Hong Xiuyan asked about the itinerary of the mother and son.
“Today is nothing. Tomorrow, I have to communicate with the relevant personnel of the film festival organizer about the event arrangements during the film festival. But for this matter, Chen Producer and I will go, and Xiao Yao doesn’t need to go together.” After listening to Hong Xiuyan’s After arriving, Jiaying Ye smiled and said, “In fact, in addition to the three occasions Xiao Yao must attend the red carpet with us at the opening ceremony of the film festival, the meeting during the film screening, and the awards ceremony at the closing ceremony, Xiao Yao must attend. Xiao Yao is free to move around. You can discuss the itinerary and activities yourself. As for me, you don’t have to worry about it, just take Xiao Yao to play well.”
Although Xiao Yao came to Korea for her movie, Ye Jiaying did not want to restrict Xiao Yao too much. Xiao Yao went to the United States and Europe many times, but rarely went to the neighboring Japan and South Korea. It’s a rare visit to Korea. Ye Jiaying hopes that Xiao Yao can have a good time in Korea and have fun.
“Well, okay!” Seeing Ye Jiaying’s words, Hong Xiuyan turned her head and asked Xiao Yao, “Xiao Yao, where are you more interested in in Korea? I have more time in the past few days, so I can do it for you. Wizard.”
To say that South Korea’s most famous tourist attraction is undoubtedly Jeju Island, which is the only place Xiao Yao wants to visit. But Jeju Island is a few hundred kilometers away from Seoul, and there is still the sea in between. He is here to participate in the film festival this time. It is not appropriate to leave the crew to run that far alone, so Xiao Yao still dismissed the idea of going to Jeju Island and decided Just stay in Seoul.
As the capital of South Korea, Seoul is also a good city. Ancient buildings and modern buildings coexist in the city, and there are also many historical sites and modern tourist attractions. But when it comes to modernization, Xiao Yao has been to New York and Los Angeles many times. When it comes to historical sites, Seoul is obviously not comparable to China, so Xiao Yao really has no interest in the tourist attractions in Seoul.
“I want to visit your company, can I?” After thinking about it, Xiao Yao raised his head and said to Hong Xiuyan.
In this world, Hallyu culture is also relatively popular. Xiao Yao was particularly interested in Korean entertainment companies, especially when he wanted to see the culture of trainees in the Korean entertainment industry, so he came up with the idea of visiting a Korean entertainment company. Hong Soo Yeon’s agency is called KM, which is a giant Korean artist planning and agency company similar to the previous Korean S.M. Entertainment. The company’s headquarters happens to be in Seoul.
“Do you mean you want to visit the headquarters of KM Entertainment?” Hong Xiuyan asked Xiao Yao.
“Yes,” Xiao Yao nodded, and then continued, “Of course, if it is not convenient, I will also be upset. Don’t worry too much about anger, I don’t want to embarrass you.”
“It’s not difficult!” Hong Xiuyan smiled, “You are a big star of China, and you are well-known in the world. You are going to visit the headquarters of KM Entertainment. We must be very welcome. After going back tonight, I will tell you The executives of the company can tell you and they can take you to visit tomorrow.”
“Okay, then I will trouble you.” Xiao Yao nodded and thanked him, and then continued, “There is still something I want to trouble you.”
“What? As long as I can do it, I will try my best to help you.” Hong Xiuyan said.
“It’s not a difficult thing.” Xiao Yao smiled, “This time I come to Seoul, besides attending the film festival and visiting your company, I don’t plan to go out and wander around. Taking advantage of this free time, I want to do For some music work, I would like to ask you to help me find a recording studio in Seoul. The cost is not a problem, you don’t need to help me get any discounts, I will pay at the price, mainly I want you to recommend one to me A place with relatively complete equipment and musical instruments, and a relatively safe and reliable place.”
“This is easy to handle!” Hong Xiuyan smiled, “Our company has a recording studio. The equipment must be the most advanced in Asia at least, and the place is absolutely safe and reliable. Not only the musical instruments are complete, but our company also has a lot of contract music. Not only is there a wide range of musicians, but it is also very convenient to find. If you want to work, it is better to use our company’s recording studio!”
“This is not so good? Will it delay your company’s original recording work?” Xiao Yao hesitated.
Generally speaking, large companies will not rent out their own internal recording studios, so when Xiao Yao is recording outside, he usually finds the kind of small recording studios with rental business.
“There is nothing wrong,” Hong Xiuyan said, “Our company has more than one recording studio. Generally, it is rare that all of them are used at the same time. It shouldn’t be a problem to separate one for you.”
“What about the cost?” Xiao Yao asked again. Xiao Yao does not reject the use of KM’s internal recording studio.
“I can’t tell you about this,” Hong Xiuyan smiled, “I have never rented a recording studio, and I don’t know much about the cost of renting a recording studio now. I have to go back and ask the company at night to know this.”
“However,” Hong Xiuyan continued, “From what I know about our boss, I don’t think he will charge you any fees.”
“If you don’t need money, let me trade the song?” Xiao Yao understood what Hong Xiuyan meant at once, and said with a smile, “I can’t guarantee this!”
Back then, Xiao Yao helped Wan Peiling’s Chinese girl group write a Korean song “alone” on that electronic music show. Later, Xiao Yao sold the copyright of that song to the company that the girl group belongs to. Huaxia Entertainment Company sold the cover copyright of that song to an entertainment company in South Korea.
The Korean entertainment company that bought the cover of the Korean song from China’s entertainment company was KM. Later, after that song became popular in South Korea, KM also sent an email to Qi Jia Studio to find Xiao Yao’s invitation to the song. Xiao Siqi told Xiao Yao about KM looking for Xiao Yao’s invitation to sing. Xiao Yao knew it, and he still remembers it now.
At the time, the invitation song was not successful, but this time I delivered it to the door. I believe that KM’s senior management will probably bring it up again. A good song is compared with the rental cost of a recording studio for more than ten days. As long as the executive of any entertainment company is not stupid, he will definitely choose the former.
However, Xiao Yao’s temperament is not the kind that can be manipulated. Do I have to write songs for you if I want me to write songs for you? The big deal is that you don’t need your recording studio and rent it out by yourself. Seoul is so big, you are afraid you can’t find a recording studio for rent?
Of course, Xiao Yao is not determined not to write songs for the artists under KM. Whether to write a song or not, the main thing is to see the attitude of the other party at the time, the artist who asked him to write the song, and Xiao Yao’s interest and mood at the time. That’s why he said such an unsure thing to Hong Xiuyan, which is considered to be an early call Vaccination out.
