Chapter 217 Who broke who
On December 28, 1991, the concert called "YOU&ME" was about to be held enthusiastically at Hung Hom Stadium. For Chen Jin, a rookie, this is his first time, but if he was included in Hong Kong Causeway Bay Plaza, Taipei International Trade Center and Day The real big-scene signing concert held in Ginza, the Red Hall, which can only accommodate more than 12,000 people, is really a "small" venue, which seems to have no pressure for him.
Of course, the concert and the signing party are actually very different. The signing party is very simple. Whether it is the setting of the stage, the singing and dancing are very casual, but the concert is more complicated. There are a lot of gorgeous stage effects. The carefully choreographed dance sets off the singer's beautiful singing. It is more like a big entertainment PA. RTY is even more wonderful.
In the five or six days before and after Christmas, everyone else was on holiday, but Chen Jin was preparing for the concert intensively. He rehearsed the dance over and over again. He stayed in the training ground every day, and even the beautiful women didn't care about it.
It's okay. It's only one day at Christmas, and there are too many beautiful women. He hangs out with the dancers all day long. He only accompanied Chen Zichen in the first half of Christmas Eve and Li Jiaxin in the middle of the night. He coaxed Lian Junying in the first half of Christmas and bullied Wang Zuxian in the second half of the night. He was also very happy!
On the 27th, the last day of rehearsal was officially held, and the effect was very good. Today, the good show will be staged. In the afternoon, Chen Jin invited the guests to the Peninsula Hotel for afternoon tea.
The people who came here include Uncle Qian, Brother Fa, Sister Fang, Brother, Xueyou Brother and Hua Zai. The other guests will not appear today. As for those who are willing to come, Chen Jin also sent out VIP tickets, such as Brother Qiang, Zheng Hesheng, wireless, global senior officials, acquaintances who have cooperated with before, Chen Zichen's family likes him. The juniors, other social celebrities, and so on. By the way, the VIP tickets for the first game are not sold, and it is even difficult to divide the heads.
Even if the six people are invited to drink tea now, they are not all on the stage today. Those who appear are Brother Fa and Uncle Ji. The others just come to support the scene today, and then they will appear in the next game in turn.
These six people are the closest to Chen Jin. They have the best relationship. Brother Fa and Brother Xueyou are all with their families. In addition, Chen Jin, nine people are crowded in the most distinctive private teahouse of the Peninsula Hotel, drinking tea and eating snacks while chatting casually.
Sister Fang smiled at the corners of her mouth, looked at Chen Jin, and sighed, "This guy has really said that he has just made his debut for a year!"
My brother understood what she meant, and also smiled. He took a sip of coffee leisurely and looked at Chen Jin. "He has done ten years in a year, and he doesn't mean to stop at all."
Chen Jin was happy, but he picked up a very delicious chocolate sandwich and threw it into his mouth. He quacked twice before saying, "It's not that exaggerated!" Another finger pointed to Brother Fa, "However, I still want to go to Hollywood with Brother Fa, so I have to work harder and speed up."
Brother Xueyou looked at his mouth and shook his head with a smile. "Hey, didn't you eat at noon? And ah, eating so much is not good for your pronunciation at night. Do you understand? Generally, when there is a concert, the singer doesn't eat much. That's to ensure that the body is quiet when the pronunciation."
Brother Fa curled his lips and answered with a smile, "The first time you saw him eating, you looked like a starving ghost every time." The elder brother smiled at this time, "But he didn't hold on once, as if he were drinking, and the food disappeared after eating."
Chen Jin sneered at this. If there are good things, he should enjoy it. He can eat it again. Why is he shrugged his shoulders like a child's shyness? "This is called arbitrary chic. What's more, I don't worry about pronunciation problems. I remember that the last time I had a signing concert in Ginza, Japan, I ate three plates in the morning and had a total of 50 years of life. Si, the effect is still great.
"Can you still enjoy delicious food like this?" Hua Zai smiled and said, "In addition to filling your stomach, you are wasting money and ruining delicious food."
"I don't agree with this. Even if I'm full when I'm not delicious, I can't put it down because I love delicious food!" Chen Jin curled his lips, picked up another Italian specialty snow cake, took a bite, and joked, "You are probably envy and hatred. You think I'm eating well, but your stomach can't fit it."
He shrugged his shoulders again and sighed with a smile, "You are all spoiled by your body. Now you can't even enjoy delicious food. This is a helpless and sad thing."
His nonsense seems to be a little crooked. Everyone doesn't want to talk nonsense with him. Sister Fang first changed the topic and asked what Chen Jin just said, "Are you also going to Hollywood?"
Brother Fa sneered, "He is still very early. Now he is just a child. He is greedy for everything and wants to have a try." He sighed to himself, "Hollywood is so far away from us, and there are cultural differences. Isn't it just to go? It's just to play."
My brother asked, "When are you going?" Brother Fa shook his head, "Director John Woo said that he will go next year, but I'm still thinking about it myself, and there is no definite timetable for the time being."
Uncle Ji is an old qualification, but he said rudely, "If the current state of KING goes well, he may really go to Hollywood before you." He turned his head and said to Chen Jin, "You have also released Japanese and Korean albums. Do you have to think about English albums? Now Universal has a close relationship with you. As long as there is quality, they will still work hard at that time."
Brother Xueyou looked at Chen Jin's face and said with a rare positive color, "Uncle Qi is right. Your English is so pure now. It seems that you are good at the lyrics and music. No matter what the effect is, it's good to try a piece of water."
Chen Jin listened but shook his head with a wry smile, "I don't know how to do it. I planned to add one or two English songs to the Cantonese album I just released. I even thought about the lyrics and songs, but the feeling of singing was too bad, or awkward and too stiff, I couldn't listen to it at all."
He is telling the truth. He is full of ambitions for Hollywood. Although his acting career has just begun and he doesn't want to go to the sky in one step, it will be much easier if he has the opportunity to release one or two popular English albums first and then enter Hollywood.
The reason why Jackie Chan's success is that he has endured for many years, and Brother Fa is almost there. Jet Li is not excellent. In the end, he didn't get used to it, and he didn't warm up in advance. He went out rashly, and there were not many selling points. Naturally, it was difficult to make great progress.
But it's strange that Chen Jin can adapt to the singing of Korean and Japanese, and his gradual sharpening also has a good effect. Not to mention that the Japanese album has sold more than 2.8 million copies because of a little means, but the Korean album is a real reflection of its own strength. Now It also sold 700,000 copies, which is very popular with the Korean people. That's not a fluke. Of course, there may be some sales brought by his face and demEAN.
It's just English singing, not to mention black rap music, but general pop, country, jazz, etc. Chen Jin also feels difficult. He always feels that he can't grasp the connection and turning point. Even if a song is finished, it is very stiff. It seems that his level is still on the day of participating in the rookie singing competition. Like Michael Jackson's "beatit", there is no breakthrough.
It's okay for that kind of thing to fool ordinary people, but professional musicians will pout you in the face after listening to it, criticize you, and then do the best to be sarcastic and humiliate you.
Chen Jin doesn't want to do that. If he doesn't want to do it, he will be amazing. At the very least, even if he doesn't do it, he has to be appreciated by professionals and save his character, so that he will have the possibility of accumulating.
He also found a lot of ways to listen to English tapes and watch English dramas. However, he didn't have much time. It seems that after listening to it, he was still like a parrot. He was speechless and deeply shocked.
Uncle Ji listened to his words and frowned, "When it comes to pronunciation, your pitch is no different from those foreign devils. I think it's even purer. I think this may be a common problem for us Chinese. No matter how standard the pronunciation is, it's a little hard when singing English songs."
But he suddenly pointed to his brother, "Well, my brother's is not bad. It's a little better than Xueyou's. Why don't you find time to discuss it with your brother?"
My brother's English songs are really great. It's very beautiful. Chen Jin also heard his performance at the dance party. He nodded and was about to speak, but his brother laughed. "I think the secret is very simple. You have more contact with those ghosts, chat with them, sing and dance, and then you will be assimilated. Then you become a real fake foreign devil.
Uncle Qi agrees with this view very much, "My brother is right. Listening to English albums and watching English dramas are always separated by one layer. The feeling is not so deep, and the face-to-face contact with others is different. That kind of look, that tone, that kind of behavior, etc. can be grasped, even the feeling of pronunciation. You can have a more detailed understanding.
Chen Jin thought about it, nodded, but shook his head again: "I don't know any ghosts. The place where I live is full of fake foreign devils. Do I invite them to my house to open a PARTY every day?"
"You don't have to worry about this!" My brother smiled and said, "As long as you have time, I'll take you to play. There are a lot of ghosts in the bar in Languifang. I'm familiar with them."
Hua Zai joked, "Don't be complacent. You still have a housekeeper at home!"
Brother Fa said, "Take me with you, and I have to study hard to warm up for my future."
Chen Jin looked at his sister-in-law with a smile and joked, "Sister-in-law, this is what Brother Fa wants to come by himself. It can't be said that I broke him."
Sister-in-law smiled and didn't say anything, but Brother Fa slapped him, "Eat your food and take me bad, and don't see how old you are now!"
