Huayu 2009: Who should we call the Heavenly King?

6 month 1 number.

Telecom officially launched the ringtone for "Waka Waka," the theme song of the 2010 South Africa World Cup.

At this time, Shakira was virtually unknown in the country.

but.

This does not affect the spread of "Waka Waka".

Please!

That's the World Cup, which is held every four years!

Thanks to this super IP, Waka Waka saw a surge in search volume and downloads on its first day of release.

The theme song, with its uniquely wild African rhythm, quickly became a hit.

"Do you think I should have a set of photos taken as a soccer babe?"

Looking at the pictures on Sina's World Cup special page, Liu Shishi turned to look at Shen Yan.

Shen Yan couldn't quite keep his composure under that serious expression.

"Take the picture!"

Shen Yan stroked his chin, deciding it was best not to discourage Sister Xia.

"However, only for me to see."

"You really want to see it?"

Liu Shishi blinked, her face showing a conflicted expression, as if she was seriously considering it.

"..."

Shen Yan had only ever heard of the saying "pregnancy makes you stupid for three years," but could falling in love really lower your IQ?

Then he sighed.

"Just kidding, why are you filming? What if a hacker gets my computer one day? I'd be dead."

"What are you dreaming about?" The blind woman rolled her eyes. "I'm just wearing it for you to see, not for you to take pictures."

"What should I wear?"

Shen Yan looked at Xia Jie. Although Xia Jie was rather flat-chested, she had a good temperament. She changed into a cool and refreshing soccer babe outfit.

Isn't this a kind of contrast?

"Let me look for inspiration."

Sister Xia is very proactive; she immediately started looking for inspiration on the web.

"How about this one?"

After a while, Sister Xia pointed to the photo on the screen.

Shen Yan glanced at it and saw it was the set that Tang Yan had photographed. He shook his head slightly.

"There's too much fabric, and don't you think it looks strange wearing her outfit?"

"Actually, Zixuan was my role at first." Sister Xia coughed lightly.

"Um??"

Shen Yan looked at Blind Sister in surprise.

No wonder they're Pisces, with their deep inner thoughts.

Sister Xia is actually a typical Pisces girl. She is gentle and reserved on the surface. When you don't know her well, you might think she is dull and not good at talking.

Actually, that's not the case; she has a lot of inner monologues.

There is a stark contrast between her outward appearance and her inner self.

"Pooh."

The blind woman spat.

"It's still for you."

"Yes, yes, it's all my fault."

Shen Yan chuckled, pulled Xia Jie into his arms, and kissed her twice.

Then?

Work!

It's a proper job, not accompanying the female lead.

Continue composing the theme song and ending theme for "The Vigilantes in Masks".

The ending theme song has been decided; it will be a newly arranged version of "Mountains and Seas".

As for the theme song, he just got an "inspiration" from it.

"Not a Hero".

The spirit of chivalry, indifference to fame and fortune, and the core idea of ​​wandering the world in this song are highly similar to those in "Li Ge Xiao".

However, the two lines in the song, "I am always passionate, and I love the world with a romantic spirit" and "My romantic spirit has never aged, and I sing and play my youthful years," are clearly not a good match.

Shen Yan wrote the lyrics while pondering how to revise them.

As he wrote, he smoothly added the two inappropriate lines of lyrics.

[I am always passionate, and love the world with unbridled charm] → [I am always proud, and my heart shines brightly for the world]

[The spirit of youth never fades, the song of life continues with the strumming of the sword] → [The song of parting never grows old, the laughter of drinking fills the years]

The word "Li Ge" (离歌) carries the connotation of a sorrowful farewell song, which resonates with Li Ge Xiao's experience of losing his beloved wife and parting from the court. It can also be combined with the word "Xiao" (笑) to form the phrase "Li Ge Xiao" (离歌笑).

After finishing the writing in one go, Shen Yan nodded in satisfaction.

perfect.

The blind woman beside her had her eyes darting around, her gaze fixed firmly on the notepad on the screen.

"Having been drunk by the wind and drunk tea"

"Home is where the world is."

"A knife can be used to hold a fist, and fists can be wielded as well."

"Considering some old stories, I went to the restaurant."

Even a thatched roof is better than a fairy bed.

"Friends can travel freely between the North and South"

"Who among the visitors has a heart as broad as mine?"

"I will gladly accept the sun, moon, mountains, and sea all at once."

"Only name, no reply"

"I'll go wherever I want, I'm just a madman, not a hero."

Between the lines, she seemed to see a chivalrous hero who was loyal and righteous, free-spirited, disdainful of authority, unburdened by fame, and unafraid of death.

suitable!

Perfect!

It's practically tailor-made for Li Gexiao!

"Baby, you're amazing."

No sooner had she finished speaking than Liu Shishi pounced like a ferocious lion.

have to.

Tonight will be another sleepless night.

Before long, the lively little lion cub turned into a sick lion.

listless.

I can't muster any enthusiasm.

After a while, Sister Xia stared at Shen Yan with bright, sparkling eyes.

"Baby, how did you get here so fast?"

"Huh? What do you mean, 'faster'? You're the one who's faster, aren't you?"

"I'm being serious," Liu Shishi playfully punched him, "It's about writing songs. How did you write them so fast?"

"I had already planned it out in advance."

Shen Yan said with a smile.

"Who doesn't draft their writing? Don't you draft your exams?"

"You're amazing." Sister Xia gave me a quick kiss.

"Don't you know how amazing I am?"

"Pah, you can't stop talking about your true colors."

……

The next day.

After obtaining Shen Yan's consent, Liu Shishi went to "present her treasure," handing over the revised lyrics to Cai Yinong and Li Guoli.

Yes.

Shen Yan has to revise his lyrics several times.

Even if you can recall it, you still have to revise it several times. When writing a song, you might revise it dozens or even hundreds of times.

"Was this just written last night?"

Li Guoli was surprised to see the newly released lyrics.

soon.

He originally thought it would drag on for several months, like "The Weaver Girl at the End of the World".

"Yes, I was there last night..."

Liu Shishi quickly changed her mind halfway through her sentence.

"He called me over to take a look."

"oh."

Li Guoli dragged out the last syllable, as if he were burying his head in the sand.

"Ha ha!"

Upon hearing this, the directors present, including Liang Quansheng, Wu Jinyuan, and You Dazhi, all burst into laughter.

The blind woman blushed deeply, and in her anger, she lightly kicked Shen Yan, who was standing next to her.

"Very well written."

After laughing, Li Guoli nodded in satisfaction.

"The lyrics fully capture Li Gexiao's personality and experiences; I look forward to the final product."

then.

Several directors have read it and given it extremely high praise.

That's very well written.

Saying you're not good at traditional Chinese style songs is probably just being modest, right?

The film crew's place was tiny; there was no way to hide anything.

soon.

The news of the release of the theme song for "The Vigilantes in Masks" spread quickly, but all that was known was that the director gave it high praise.

Nobody knows exactly what it will look like.

After all, this song was just "written" and is still going through the copyright registration process. Who would spread it around before the results are in?

As filming continued, the weather in Hengdian became increasingly hot.

The crew prepared more than a dozen buckets of herbal tea every day, and Shen Yan would occasionally treat guests to iced drinks.

Each time they invite the entire crew, they spend nearly ten thousand yuan at a time.

He's not short of money now!

After the contract was signed, Gold Typhoon made the payment very quickly, and ten million yuan arrived in the account the next day.

He also converted the three million from Sister Xia into offshore RMB, which, together with his seven million, brought the total to ten million.

Then, convert that ten million into US dollars.

He had opened a US stock account before.

1000 million RMB was roughly equivalent to 146 million USD, so he added a little more to round it up.

He spent all $150 million on Apple products.

Yes.

He didn't buy Nvidia shares. Although Shen Yan couldn't quite remember the exact stock price, Nvidia's stock price exploded 20 years later.

AI is the real driving force.

Before 2020, he felt that buying Apple products was a more promising option.

Eat the apple first, then eat Nvidia.

perfect.

As for taxes, there's no need to worry about that. He'll pay with RMB onshore. As a reborn individual, Shen Yan is a law-abiding citizen.

When it comes to taxes, he is absolutely clear-cut.

However, Sister Xia kept the investment a secret, worried that people would think she was foolish.

That's three million, not three hundred dollars. She just handed it over to Shen Yan to manage. She knew she was being a bit 'foolish'.

So she kept it a secret from even her parents.

……

6 month 11 number.

The South Africa World Cup has officially opened at Soccer City Stadium in Johannesburg.

The World Cup begins!

The viewing schedule for this World Cup is relatively favorable for domestic audiences.

The opening ceremony is at 2 PM local time, which is 8 PM in China.

The crew of "The Vigilantes in Masks" wrapped up work early today and organized everyone to watch the opening match together.

As everyone took their seats, they chatted while waiting for the food to be served, before the opening ceremony began.

Huo Jianhua, who had just finished attending a brand event in Shenhai, started chatting and the conversation turned to Shen Yan's songs.

"Shen Yan, your song 'Welcome to Shanghai' is really popular in Shanghai lately. You can hear it everywhere you go."

"Is it really that bad?"

Shen Yan knew this song was very popular in Shanghai, but to say it was played everywhere was a bit of an exaggeration.

"real."

Huo Jianhua replied with a serious expression.

"I'm not lying to you. The mall where I went to the event was playing it, and I heard it on the radio on the way. When I went out for dinner that night, I passed a hair salon and they were still playing it inside."

"It's just a coincidence, a coincidence," Shen Yan said modestly, waving his hand.

"That song was indeed very popular in Shanghai."

Ma Tianyu, who was standing nearby, also joined the conversation. He was also a graduate of the Beijing Film Academy, in the same year as Shen Yan, both in the class of 07. However, he attended the Continuing Education College, which only lasted for two years.

"I heard from my friend that 'Welcome to Shanghai' is almost becoming the city song of Shanghai."

"It can't be that exaggerated, can it?" Liu Shishi said, turning to Zhang Dandan: "Dandan, you went back to Shenhai not long ago, tell me about it."

"Brother Hua and Brother Yu are right!"

Zhang Dandan nodded frantically.

"That song is indeed very, very popular, Sister Shi, you'll know once you go back to Shanghai."

"Oh, right."

Zhang Dandan suddenly remembered something.

"I was out running errands that day when I overheard an old man explaining to a foreigner that this song was sung by people from Shenhai."

Good guy.

Shen Yan raised an eyebrow.

So I've been labeled a Shenhai resident?

He had absolutely no interest in being called a "Shanghai Boss" or a "Beijing Boss."

The most reliable document is a Hong Kong or Taiwan household registration certificate.

However, Gold Typhoon has recently expressed interest in having him try holding a concert, or rather, a fan meeting.

The location was set in Shenhai.

According to the company's research, if the fan meeting were held in Shenhai, given his popularity there, he could easily sell 10,000 to 20,000 tickets.

Not to mention "Waka Waka," even the World Cup couldn't steal the spotlight from the World Expo.

but.

Shen Yan did not agree.

Holding a concert is actually very troublesome, and besides, how many songs has he released so far?

Even if you include the songs from the second album and all the OSTs, there aren't even thirty songs.

How can you put together a concert without at least thirty songs?

You can't just cover someone else's song, can you?

So he rejected the proposal.
