Chapter 271: Who will sing "Red Ling".
Monday, early in the morning.
"Boss Bao'er is early!"
"Boss Bo'er, are you back?"
"How is it to be in Shangjing?"
......
Lin Bao walked up the stairs, and people from the studios passing by around greeted him.
"Good morning, everyone!"
Lin Bao looked at these young and beautiful girls, and greeted them with a smile.
On the studio's side, at the beginning, it was established by Xiao Yutong leading some fried fan groups.
Therefore, in the early stage, the studio was basically full of young girls in their twenties.
Later, as Zheng Rong completely took over the studio, she began to expand and expand little by little, and now, the total number of people in the entire studio has exceeded 300.
However, most of them are still relatively young, active girls.
Because in Lin Bao's studio, he basically doesn't worry about the pressure of performance, and mainly does some daily work, so the whole environment has always been very good. Genius to remember in a second
Lin Bao stepped on the stairs and went up to the fifth floor to the recording studio.
"Teacher Lin Bao, you're back!"
Seeing Lin Bao walk in, several members of the sewing machine band who were practicing their musical instruments freely also stood up, "How is the movie prepared over there?"
"It's all done, and I'm waiting for the official start in more than three months. ”
Lin Bao said.
"Will it be launched in March?
"According to the schedule, it can be filmed before October, and as for the release time, it has not yet been determined. ”
Lin Bao said.
"Looking forward to it, Mr. Lin Bao! When your movie is released, we must contribute a movie!"
A few people said, "Contribute a few more!"
"Haha, thank you, teachers!"
Lin Bao smiled, "When I came back this time, I mainly discussed the song "Red Ling" with a few teachers. ”
"Found a singer?"
Qiao Mu looked at him.
Lin Bao shook his head: "No, so, I discussed it with Aunt Rong before, or this song, let the teacher and a few of you sing it." ”
"Don't!"
A few members of the sewing machine band looked at each other and said, "If you let other people sing it, the effect is better than ours! Do you look at the appearance of our hometowns, like singing such dramatic songs? Moreover, it doesn't match the story behind your song!"
When Qiao Mu got Lin Bao's score, he also heard him tell the story behind this song.
The story is still very shocking to them.
The quality of this song, naturally, goes without saying.
Moreover, it is precisely because of the propaganda of Lin Bao and the Opera Association in China that the whole opera atmosphere is very good, this song, whether it is the quality or the whole idea, will definitely explode when it is released, and even, in terms of popularity, it is even higher than the previous "Rap Face".
Qiao Mu and the others naturally hope very much to have the opportunity to come out with another song.
This idea had never been thought of before they came to Lin Bao's studio.
After all, this era is no longer the era it used to be.
Now, in China, the popularity of Cantonese songs has also been sluggish.
Therefore, after more than ten years of working behind the scenes, several of them basically have no idea of wanting to make a comeback.
However, when I arrived at Lin Bao's studio, I especially saw with my own eyes that in this studio, whether it is Lin Bao writing lyrics and songs, or songs written by several contracted singers, the styles are different, but the overall quality and audience are very strong.
In the recording studio, there is not much time to record songs, and most of the time, they are practicing their craft. As I practiced, I gradually had the idea of making my own music.
In particular, Lin Bao has also said many times that he wants to have the opportunity to help them make some Cantonese music.
Therefore, several of them, in their hearts, also want to be able to produce new works with the help of Lin Bao.
However, now they are no longer the kind of young people who can dare to try any style of song.
Now they are no longer suitable for songs like "Red Ling".
They knew that Lin Bao's song was of high quality and a good song, so naturally they didn't want to waste it in their own hands casually.
"Okay. ”
Seeing them say this, Lin Bao also nodded.
He himself knows that this song is not very suitable for a few arbors.
However, there are no other singer resources for the time being.
Next, he is about to start officially taking Yu Chenghao to train opera, and he has no other time to come back to work on this song.
"Teacher Lin Bao, in fact, I see that many people on the Internet are trying this kind of drama, or falsetto singing. If you can't find a suitable one on the studio's side for the time being, you can go online. ”
Qiao Mu said, "Before, I watched Zige and they were brushing Douyin, and I have swiped a lot of Internet singers, and they have all sung such music. There is a singer, who seems to be from Penguin Music, who sings very well, although it is not a very professional play, but the falsetto style is still very unique. ”
"Penguin music?"
Lin Bao said, "Does Mr. Qiao Mu know which singer it is?"
"I forgot the name. ”
Qiao Mu said, "Zige, that kid knows, or I'll give him a call." ”
Immediately, he took out his mobile phone and called Cao Zige: "Hey, Zige, last time, who was the singer on Douyin that you showed me......? Okay, do you have a record of that video over there, forward it to your master, okay, okay, then you can get busy first. ”
Next to him, Lin Bao listened to Qiao Mu's words, and was also slightly stunned.
Li Yunrun, he naturally knows that Penguin Music is a contracted singer.
Starting from "Song Night", he finished fourth.
Last summer, I played an album with flower particles.
However, Lin Bao has not paid much attention to him.
After all, he can't be considered the kind of amazing singer. Moreover, it is also from Penguin Music.
However, last time, he came over and talked to Lin Bao briefly about his own music direction, and Lin Bao remembered this singer.
At this time, a message from Cao Zige also popped up on his mobile phone.
Lin Bao clicked on it and saw that it was a Douyin video.
In the video, Li Yunrun and another middle-aged man with gray hair and black-framed glasses are practicing singing in the sound room.
The middle-aged man played, Li Yunrun sang, and sang, the chorus part of "Floating Clouds" in the "Cloud" album before the official one.
This music, Li Yunrun's whole performance with a little bit of opera flavor, Lin Bao feels that it still has some quality. Mobile phone one second to remember the "Idea Chinese Network →" to provide you with wonderful \ novel reading.
Therefore, when the former looked for him before, he told Li Yunrun to try to try in the direction of drama or falsetto.
And now, in the chorus part of "Floating Clouds Scattered" in the video, Li Yunrun sings it in a false voice.
The whole pitch rises an octave, and the feeling of singing is a very different feeling.
It's even more amazing than before.
"How about it, Mr. Lin Bao, I think it's a good singing. I've heard the original song of his song before, and it's of a higher quality than the original song. Moreover, if it is his timbre, if he can add some dramatic charm, it should be very in line with the style of the song "Red Ling". ”
Qiao Mu also walked over, looked at the video, and said, "The middle-aged man inside, named Liang Bai, is the music director of Penguin Music, and he has a high influence in China. In the previous two issues of 'Song Night', he also participated, and the reputation of the whole music effect was very good. ”
Lin Bao nodded.
As for the music director of Penguin Music, he heard it when he was in college, and he is a relatively powerful musician.
The status is not ordinary.
However, just like arbors, they have been doing behind-the-scenes work, so ordinary people don't know much about it.
Speaking of Li Yunrun, his performance in this video still surprised Lin Bao.
Last time, I told him the direction in this regard, I don't know if he realized it himself, or with Liang Bai's guidance, in short, his current voice still made Lin Bao a little moved.
"Okay. ”
Lin Bao turned off the video and said, "I think his voice is okay." However, because he is from Penguin Music, if you want to cooperate, you have to talk to Aunt Rong. If it is confirmed, it is estimated that the recording will start in the next two days, and by then, the recording location will definitely still be here, and it will trouble a few teachers. ”
"Don't worry, a few of us are fine here!"
Qiao Mu said with a smile.
Lin Bao nodded: "In addition, Mr. Qiao Mu, several teachers, next, after the completion of this "Red Ling", I will go to Shangjing to film, and it is estimated that I will rarely return to the magic capital." In the next half a year, I talked to Aunt Rong, and there will not be a lot of recording work on the studio's side, mainly with the magic sound side, there will be some cooperation. So, if you have time, a few teachers can think about your own music, and if the quality is okay, you can send it to me, and then contact Aunt Rong to help you publish it. Now it's easy to release songs, and you can promote them directly on the website. ”
"Okay!"
Qiao Mu said with a smile, "Let's get the song "Chiling" done first." After that, a few of us totaled by ourselves! Thank you, Mr. Lin Bao!"
Lin Bao waved his hand hurriedly: "A few teachers are polite!"
......
Leaving the recording studio, Lin Bao went directly to the office on the second floor and found Zheng Rong.
"Aunt Rong, for the new song, I found a more suitable person here. ”
Lin Bao entered the door and said.
"Who?"
"Li Yunrun. ”
"Li Yunrun?"
Zheng Rong was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, "Is it the one from Penguin Music?"
"Not bad. ”
Lin Bao nodded, and then took out the previous video, "Aunt Rong, take a look at this video." ”
Zheng Rong looked at the video on her phone, especially Li Yunrun's unique falsetto singing method, and said, "I have also seen this video before. In December, when those songs were released, this song was more popular on Douyin. This Li Yunrun, after your guidance last time, this way of singing now is indeed suitable for this song "Red Ling". But ......"
"Are you worried about Penguin music?"
Lin Bao looked at him.
Zheng Rong shook her head: "I'm worried, you have some mustard about his identity." ”
"Of course it doesn't matter if I'm here!"
Lin Bao smiled, "If this song is suitable for him to sing, if Penguin Music lets him sing it, of course I don't care here, as long as this song is released by ourselves." ”
"That's good!"
Zheng Rong nodded, "Actually, I talked to several staff members in charge of this aspect in the company before. On your side, if it's okay, on my side, it's definitely okay. Moreover, before, the 'big knife' and a few of them also proposed a plan. ”
"What's the plan?"
"Now, the development of the Philharmonic has basically reached a bottleneck period. In terms of foreign language songs and original songs, it has begun to gain the upper hand, but in terms of domestic music library resources, it is still much worse. ”
Zheng Rong said, "Before, we always regarded Penguin Music as an opponent. Actually, the words of the 'big knife' they chatted before reminded me. In fact, now that the studio has you in charge, the entire content creation has the upper hand. Even Penguin Music, although it is wary of us, it is actually an artist who wants to get some good songs from the studio or from you. In this way, in fact, at present, the needs between us are not conflicting, or even complementary.
Just like this time, if this song is taken for Li Yunrun to sing, he can use this as a bargaining chip to negotiate some conditions with Penguin Music, for example, to buy part of their music library. ”
Lin Bao couldn't help but say, "Will Penguin Music sell it over there?"
In fact, for example, several major music platforms can continuously produce more original music content, and can always maintain and retain users, because of their music library resources.
This is true not only in the music industry, but also in all content production industries, including several major production and distribution companies in Hollywood. And now, there are several major online literature companies in China.
Lin Bao can take out his singing rights to this song and exchange it, it doesn't matter, because it doesn't hurt his roots.
But on the Penguin Music side, the music library is their core competitiveness, how can it be easily let go.
"Whether Penguin music sells or not, that's a matter for them to consider. However, even if they don't come up with a music library, they will definitely have to come up with other cooperation chips, and we are sure that it is impossible to let their singers sing this song so easily. ”
Zheng Rong said, "As long as there is no problem on your side, you can let that Li Yunrun sing." In terms of cooperation, I took the 'big knife' and went to Penguin Music to talk. ”
"Okay, I'm fine!"
Lin Bao said, "Then please trouble Aunt Rong to talk to them, originally, I still thought that I could reveal the music in the next few days, and then release it before the New Year." But now, it seems that this song has to be postponed. ”
"Don't worry, I'll let 'Big Knife' contact Penguin Music first and talk to them as soon as possible. Anyway, now the value of your song is here, Penguin Music, if they want to get it, they also have to consider how many chips they can come up with. ”
Zheng Rong said.
Lin Bao nodded.
In fact, he himself was not very interested in copyright disputes and commercial negotiations, and even had some disgust.
But it can't be helped, content development in various industries is like this. In the music industry, several major music platforms also have to eat themselves, so they naturally have to firmly control their own music resource permissions.
