Chapter 171: I'll Give You a Chance
Hearing He Yuming's words, Lin Bao was slightly stunned, looked up at him, and said, "You yourself are taking the path of creative Rao, why do you want me to write songs?"
"My level, how can I compare with Brother Lin Bao? You have one song, top me ten songs!"
He Yuming smiled, "I know, now Brother Lin Bao, you are already a domestic gold medal creator, even the king of singers and queens are looking for you to write songs." I know, myself, I don't have that big hands. It's just that I don't want to give up this good opportunity for 'Singer Night' easily, so I want to ask you for a song.
I can't get the one million pencil fee, but I can still find my family to get tens of thousands of yuan. In addition, I can also do without all the song copyrights, including the singer's part, just ask Brother Lin Bao, help me!"
There were a few Yuan koi next to him, and when they heard his words, they couldn't help but look over.
In fact, during this time, whether it is on the Internet or in reality, many people have come to Lin Bao to write songs.
Even yesterday, there was a second-tier star who came to ask for a song in person with his agent, and the pen fee was not cheap.
But all of these were rejected by Lin Bao.
"Let me ask you a question, do you want to continue on the path of music and go your own way out of music, or do you just want to participate in the 'Singer Night' and gain fame?"
Lin Bao did not reject him directly.
In fact, he will basically refuse to ask for songs like this.
In terms of music guidance, Lin Bao generally teaches students according to their aptitude, but in the end, he is just a "teaching", not selling songs.
Xu Fan didn't need it, he never wrote a song for him, but relying on his own understanding of "Blue Lotus", he has come to this day step by step.
Xiao Yutong's singing skills are first-class, but her voice is unique, and she also has a higher pursuit in music, and general pop songs are not suitable for her. And she herself couldn't write a song that suited her for a while.
So, I decided to help her and wrote the current two songs.
Even so, during this time, in addition to participating in the show, in his free time, Xiao Yutong was learning to try his own composition and learn musical instruments according to Lin Bao's requirements.
The situation of Yuanyuan is different.
Cao Zige is still boringly linking the guitar foundation one by one, and the song "Spring Breeze Ten Miles" is hidden in the ashes.
For He Yuming, Lin Bao has ideas to help him cultivate his own creative style and direction.
I can teach him to write songs and create them by myself, but I will never help him write songs.
"Brother Lin Bao, of course I want to take the music road seriously!"
He Yuming said busily, "But you also know how important this 'Singer's Night' is for a non-professional singer like me! Brother Lin Bao, you are from the Conservatory of Music, you should know the current situation of the domestic music industry, not everyone is like you, with strength and popularity." If I don't have enough popularity, no matter how strong I am, it won't help......"
"I think you're mistaken. ”
Lin Bao interrupted him, "Strength and popularity have always been positive. As long as you have good enough work, there will definitely be an audience. Isn't your own song "A Thousand Paper Cranes" the best example?"
"But...... How many songs like "A Thousand Paper Cranes" can I compose?"
He Yuming looked at him.
"Do you think you can't?"
Lin Bao asked rhetorically.
He Yuming was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly: "Brother Lin Bao, not everyone has such a terrifying endowment like you. Who can create such a thing?"
"If you don't have confidence in yourself, why do you want to continue to follow the path of music?"
Lin Baodao, "Even if the 'Singer's Night' brings you out and the audience brings you out, do you think you can be called this part of the fame?"
He Yuming shook his head: "Brother Lin Bao, maybe you don't know much about the current situation on the Internet. Many anchors and celebrities don't have much talent at all, they just rely on popularity, receive advertisements, and still become popular. Therefore, this era is the era of traffic, and only traffic is the real strength. ”
Seeing him like this, Lin Bao suddenly felt an inexplicable anger in his heart.
When he came to find himself today, he thought He Yuming was holding a learning attitude. Even if you find yourself to write songs, it's human nature, and you do want to help him as much as possible.
But Lin Bao didn't expect that He Yuming would pursue such a traffic belief.
It is true that in this era, business is all about traffic, but for creators and content makers, how can they only focus on traffic?
Without enough solid content, without real strength, even if it gives you traffic, can you hold up?
Even those so-called traffic students, their acting skills are problematic and criticized, but their efforts are definitely more than ordinary people think.
"Brother Lin Bao......"
Seeing that Lin Bao's face was slightly heavy, He Yuming secretly said in his heart that it was not good, thinking about whether it was this remark just now that made the other party think that he was him, so he was unhappy, and then hurriedly said, "Brother Lin Bao, I didn't mean anything else just now." I know that people like you, who are endowed with strength, don't care about those ...... I also have you as my learning goal......"
"What I'm trying to tell you is, at least in the music industry, that's not the case. ”
Lin Bao glanced up at him and said, "If you can have enough accumulation and come up with good enough works, someone will naturally help you." Singer's Night, Mr. Jin, other seniors in the music industry, even if they don't help you, if you come to me, I will definitely help you publicize.
But if you're thinking about this kind of so-called traffic, I don't think anyone can help you!"
He Yuming's face changed, and he said busily: "Brother Lin Bao, don't be angry, I know that you have also been on the Internet, and you will help anyone who wants to progress in music." Myself, I promise, will definitely follow the plan you gave me.
Alas, maybe I'm too eager to get in. Brother Lin Bao, you may not know, I was born in a rural area, my family conditions are not good, my parents are farmers, and now, when I go to college, I also want to make more money and strive to change the conditions of my family as soon as possible. I'm really sorry, Brother Lin Bao, don't be angry......"
Lin Bao's frowning brows relaxed slightly.
He knew what He Yuming meant by these words now.
In fact, he himself was born into a peasant family, and he also knew that for them, especially before they really grew up, the poor family background was more of a protective color for themselves.
However, this is definitely not a reason not to work hard and want to pursue a shortcut to fame.
In this life, if you can't fight for your family history, you have to use your strength to talk about it after all.
The current He Yuming's strength and foundation are not solid. The fame brought to him by a song "A Thousand Paper Cranes" could not be supported at all by his own ability. Therefore, when PK, singing skills and strength are criticized.
"I'll give you a chance. ”
Lin Bao thought for a moment and said, "First of all, I won't help you write any songs. But from now on, you can follow me to learn lyrics and music. I can guarantee you that if you study hard, you will graduate from college in at least three years and have the strength to actually write a song like "A Thousand Paper Cranes". I think that having that level of creativity is enough to help you improve your family's situation. ”
"Really?"
When He Yuming heard this, his eyes lit up, "Thank you, Brother Lin Bao, I will definitely study with you well, no matter how much tuition fees ......."
"Don't be in a hurry to thank you first, listen to my conditions first. ”
Lin Baodao, "The tuition fee is not for the time being, and my only condition is that from now on, you can concentrate on your studies and not be delayed by any other music-related chores, including participating in any talent shows, including participating in song essay competitions." ”
"Any shows?"
He Yuming hesitated a little, and then suddenly realized, "From now on?"
"From now on. ”
Lin Bao nodded.
"That is, I can't continue to participate in 'Singer Night'?"
He Yuming's eyes widened.
"Not bad. ”
"I ......"
He Yuming's face showed a tangled expression, "That, Brother Lin Bao, can you let me go back and think about it?"
"By twelve o'clock tonight. ”
Lin Bao said directly.
"School"
He Yuming nodded.
Then he took his leave and left the barbecue restaurant.
When he left, several girls couldn't help but communicate.
"To tell the truth, Boss Bo'er is right, what he lacks now is the foundation. Last night, when Mr. Jin commented, he also passed this. ”
"What he said just now, don't be the boss of Bao'er, even if I heard it, I was angry. What does it mean to be popular only by relying on traffic and not by strength? If you don't work hard, you can write good works?"
"I hope he can figure it out for himself, Boss Bao'er has given him a chance, I hope he can grasp it. ”
......
Lin Bao, who was listening to them chatting next to him, couldn't help but shake his head.
To be honest, when he saw the song "A Thousand Paper Cranes" for the first time, although he didn't feel amazing, he himself took a look at He Yuming.
After all, it is not easy to write songs of this quality as an amateur creator.
But he didn't expect that he was also a fan of the idea of traffic first.
Lin Bao finally gave him a choice based on his potential to create a song like "A Thousand Paper Cranes".
Such a good seedling, cultivated well, will definitely become a good music creator in the future.
Moreover, even if he is not very high, after studying with himself for three years, Lin Bao is confident that he will grow up, at least it will not be a problem to be able to support himself and his family.
Therefore, for He Yuming, whether he can seize this opportunity depends on whether he can let go of the obsession with the so-called traffic in his heart.
......
At the same time, USA, Ohio, Cleveland.
Yang Yi and the others hurried from the hotel to the Blossomham Music Center and found Weisser.
As soon as they met, Yang Yi couldn't help asking: "They don't agree to mark the creator's name on the track list, what do they mean?"
After the two sides reached an intention to cooperate, the orchestra also immediately engaged in rehearsals.
Because in the Cleveland Orchestra, there were only orchestral musicians, and in the beginning, according to the orchestra's idea, only the orchestral part was played.
However, later, at the insistence of Yang Yi and others, Weiser also auditioned the orchestral part by himself, and found that it completely lost its original taste. Therefore, it is also advocated that modern electronic music, including vocals, should be perfectly displayed when the time comes.
It's not hard to find an electronic band, and Cleveland is the rock capital, so it's easy to find some strong musicians. In terms of vocals, professional bel canto singers can also be found in the local area.
The most important thing to solve is the issue of declaration.
After all, according to the regulations, when the time comes to the festival, the only invitation to the Golden Hall is the Cleveland Orchestra.
Later, everyone discussed a way to let these electronic musicians and bel canto singers join the orchestra temporarily. However, this method will not work, and it needs to be approved by the responsible association of friends of music in Vienna.
Yesterday, Weiser submitted his application for repertoire adjustments, as well as information on new repertoire, and today, Vienna has replied.
To everyone's surprise, including the repertoire, modern electronic percussion, all these performance-level things, passed. The only problem is that he is unwilling to mark the name of the songwriter Lin Bao on the program list at that time.
"Is this discrimination?"
Yang Yi couldn't help frowning.
"Teacher Yang Yi, it's not like this. ”
Wei Se busily explained, "The reason given by the Friends of Music Association is that they feel that Mr. Lin Bao is too young, and they are skeptical about his qualifications and the possibility of creation. ”
"What's the truth about that? Can't young people make good works?"
Yang Yi said.
"The Association of Friends of Music also took into account that if the song "Themass" received attention after the festival performance, the outside world would see that the creator was a young man under the age of 30, which would cause discussion. ”
Weiser looked at him and said, "Actually, Mr. Yang Yi, it can also be seen that the Music Friends Association attaches great importance to this music. ”
Yang Yi nodded: "I know." However, this piece was originally composed by this junior, so how can there be any reason not to write his name?
"Of course. Teacher Yang Yi, I think so, if we can come up with some evidence to prove that it was indeed created by Mr. Lin Bao and submitted it to Vienna, I think, they don't have anything to say. ”
Weiser said.
"It's easy. ”
When Yang Yi and the others heard this, they were relieved.
In fact, this time abroad, they also considered the possibility of encountering such problems, and also prepared in advance.
"This "Themass" is already registered with our National Copyright Center, and they can go and look it up. ”
Yang Yi said, then turned on his mobile phone and clicked on a video, "In addition, there is also a documentary made by Lin Bao when he was creating this song, which can also be used as evidence." ”
Weiser watched the entire three- or four-minute video, but he frowned a little: "I don't think this kind of documentary can help much in terms of realism." ”
"That's not going to work? So what do they want? Take a time machine and fly back to see for themselves?"
Yang Yi couldn't help but be a little angry.
