Chapter 458: Meeting
Yang Jingxing immediately hugged his laptop and a stack of music scores and prepared to set off, Pang Xi wanted to take over, but Yang Jingxing refused to put the score. So Pang Xi took his notepad and sorted out his makeup while following Yang Jingxing's footsteps.
Passing by the recording department, Yang Jingxing pushed the door to take a look and asked Chang Yiming: "Meeting?"
Chang Yiming was not in a hurry: "There will be a while...... Let's go. ”
Zhong Yingwen also followed and smiled at Yang Jingxing: "God......"
Yang Jingxing sneered: "It's getting more and more avant-garde." ”
Zhong Yingwen hehe, glanced at Pang Xi, and then complained to Yang Jingxing: "You said it earlier, I went to the concert last Monday, but it's a pity that ......"
Yang Jingxing threatened: "Sister Yaoyao asked, why didn't Zhong Yingwen come?"
Zhong Yingwen was excited: "Fart...... Did you really write it with them?"
Yang Jingxing shook his head: "They write, I remember." ”
Chang Yiming said: "The arrangement is yours, I can see it." ”
Zhong Yingwen asked: "Have you watched the video? ”
Chang Yiming smiled: "It is estimated that the planning department is not good......"
There were already three people in the small conference room of the editorial department, Hao Shengfeng and Yi Ban, the arrangers and composers signed by Hongxing, who had drunk with Zhou Hechen and Zhou Daya with Yang Jingxing, and Shen Yibo, another Hongxing person who was also the main arranger. Shen Yibo is less than thirty years old, graduated from the composition department of Shenyang Conservatory of Music, and has little contact with Yang Jingxing.
These people were involved in the preparation of Tong Yichun's new album, Yi Ban prepared two songs, and Hao Shengfeng and Shen Yibo were responsible for several arrangements. However, their qualifications in Hongxing are much older than Yang Jingxing, so they didn't give Yang Jingxing a review.
Yi Ban was quite surprised when he saw Yang Jingxing: "Yo, Manager Yang is here." ”
Yang Jingxing was polite: "Brother Yi Ban is good, Brother Feng, Brother Bo ......"
Everyone greeted each other, and Yi Ban was curious about Pang Xi: "Beauty, what do you call it?"
Yang Jingxing introduced: "Pang Xi, you should know it." ”
Yi Ban shook his head: "I don't sit on duty again......" and asked Pang Xi again: "That department?"
Pang Xi said: "I am the assistant of Studio 402. ”
Yi Ban said a few times in a row: "That's amazing! Assistant manager, please take a seat!"
Pang Xi only sat down behind Yang Jingxing's side, and Zhong Yingying could only be Chang Yiming's attendant.
Hao Shengfeng spoke to Yang Jingxing: "I changed the arrangement of "In the Wind Center" slightly, violin and guitar, and nothing else moved. ”
Yang Jingxing smiled: "You are more demanding of yourself." ”
Hao Shengfeng declared: "What the manager means. ”
Yang Jingxing apologized: "It's dragging you down." ”
Hao Shengfeng smiled: "I actually like your original." ”
Yi Ban agreed: "Manager Yang has a high level, otherwise it would be so prosperous." ”
Shen Yibo also hehe, Yang Jingxing also hehe: "The level is far behind, thanks to the care of the seniors." ”
Yi Banhaha: "You're polite, we can't take care of it, it's true that the mother-in-law and mother-in-law are amazing." ”
The other people laughed for a while, and Chang Yiming laughed at Yi Ban: "It's useless for you to envy." ”
Yi Ban admitted: "That's it, it's not as good-looking as Manager Yang's face." ”
Yang Jingxing was surprised, and turned around to ask Pang Xi: "Did you bring a mirror, Brother Yi Ban said so, I want to take care of it." ”
Pang Xi tugged at the corners of his mouth, and no one else smiled happily.
Shen Yibo asked, "Four-zero-two, how old are you?"
Yang Jingxing said: "Sophomore year soon." ”
Shen Yibo asked, "Does He Hongchui know him?"
……
The two academics didn't talk for a while, and the door of the conference room was pushed open, and Gan Kaicheng walked in front of Tong Yichun, followed by Lan Jingyue and Tong Zhenshu.
Everyone got up to welcome, and Tong Yichun greeted thoughtfully: "Everyone has worked hard, thank you for your hard work, please take a seat." ”
After everyone sat down, Gan Kaicheng did not have an opening remark: "Then let's start, the preparation time is not short, I am here, and now Yi Chun's own song arrangements are almost the same, plus three songs of 402 and Yi Ban, and a few more selected songs......"
I understand the general situation, Tong Yichun has also made preparations in advance, and today's purpose is to discuss it in detail.
Tong Yichun still attaches great importance to the arrangement, focusing on his own songs first, and first asks Hao Shengfeng to explain his two arrangements and put a demo of no voice.
Hao Shengfeng is a professional, although his method is not so complicated, but several instruments can also play the required effect, and the technique is mature and clear.
After listening to "In the Wind Center", Tong Yichun nodded: "I'll listen to 402's own later, compare it." ”
In contrast, Shen Yibo's academic sample structure is obviously larger, and sometimes it is slightly redundant, but on the whole, it is a work of heart and is not particularly routine.
The main thing is to look at Tong Yichun's opinion, but she didn't express anything, but asked again: "Four zero two, you seem to have done more?"
Yang Jingxing said: "I didn't do anything, I just urged others to do it, you listen to it first." ”
Tong Yichun looked at the information: "Chen Yan, I also arranged the music from him in the last one, three songs." ”
Yang Jingxing said: "His style is a bit of a combination of jazz and folk ......"
Gan Kaicheng commented: "He is the most prodigious, in fact, he has a level, but it is a pity that he excessively demands creative freedom. ”
Yang Jingxing said: "I made some requests on my own initiative, and he complied, I don't know if it's right." ”
Tong Yichun said: "Listen first. ”
In contrast, Yang Jingxing's sample seems to be more sophisticated, although he also completely understands that the tambourine part is clicked out with the mouse.
After listening to the accompaniment of a song, Tong Yichun nodded: "It's okay, it's more fresh." ”
Everyone listened carefully to the melody and lyrics of the song, and Yi Banti requested: "At the back of the main song, I sing about youth, you listen to the sentence of years, and the chord direction is a little strange...... "Don't look at him who only writes songs, he also understands the arrangement."
Gan Kaicheng said: "C hangs four...... It's fine. ”
Yi Ban asked Yang Jingxing: "Don't you think it's not smooth enough?"
Yang Jingxing nodded: "I am also making my own opinion, because considering that when Miss Tong sings this sentence, the accent may be ...... on youth and listening."
Tong Yichun nodded: "Well, it's almost, it's not an accent." ”
Yang Jingxing continued: "So I suggest that Chen Yan highlight the singer's accent, otherwise it is not obvious enough, and it does not seem contrived and calm, I don't know if it is right." ”
Yi Ban stretched out his hand: "I'll take a look at the score...... and after carefully looking at it with everyone for a while, he doubted: "You are from the composition department, how do you calculate this progression? You see, this should be four, this should be three, isn't it much better?"
Yang Jingxing nodded: "It's okay, but it's become a canon model, and I feel like it's used too much......"
Yi Ban sneered: "How is this a canon? Canon is 34145." ”
Shen Yibo reminded Yi Ban: "C tune, the same, change this to change the framework......"
Yi Ban took a closer look: "Oh, yes, I'm sorry. ”
Gan Kaicheng smiled: "You are a songwriter, fighting for harmony with other composers?"
Yi Ban is not afraid of power: "Cut, I can put forward opinions when I come to the meeting!"
Yang Jingxing said to Tong Yichun: "Actually, Brother Yi's suggestion is good, it depends on how you choose." ”
Tong Yichun plays guitar and wants to be a maverick, so he chose immediately: "Just use this." ”
After basically deciding on one song, Yang Jingxing began to introduce the next one, and informed everyone first: "It's still Chen Yan's, this one he uses a lot of high stacked chords, I think it's a good attempt, everyone help listen to it." ”
As for the arrangement, the most talkative ones here are Yang Jingxing and Shen Yibo, and the two of them also slowly discussed, one after another, so that Lan Jingyue and the others must be in a fog.
Although Hao Shengfeng is also a powerful faction, he doesn't have so much theoretical basis for writing, so most of the time he can only listen and occasionally give opinions.
The result of the discussion and even the argument was that Shen Yibo said helplessly: "If you really want to come up with something new, you can only work the equipment, and you can't always use a few sets." ”
Yang Jingxing nodded: "I also think that I tried this matching method, but I don't think it's up to par." ”
Gan Kaicheng encouraged: "Listen and see, it's not up to you to pass the test." ”
Yang Jingxing presented an accompaniment sample made by himself with the old-fashioned orchestration method, with the least commercial of Tong Yichun's songs, the song is called "Falling".
As soon as the sound sounded, the crowd was shocked, and at first the eerie violins and cellos looked like the soundtrack of a horror movie, then the solid drums and strings played in unison, and it turned into an action blockbuster.
Tong Yichun frowned obviously, obviously Yang Jingxing's attempt was too inconsiderate of the feelings of the people who released the album. Only Shen Yibo and Gan Kaicheng were calm and seemed to be smiling.
After the prelude, the accompaniment returns to the melody of the song, but it is still very different from Tong Yichun's previous style, thick electronic music and dynamic strings, at least from ordinary thinking, it does not match the song and the singer's style.
Tong Yichun frowned, but he still showed respect for Yang Jingxing's labor, and read his own song score while listening to the accompaniment.
There is also an electric guitar, an instrument that Tong Yichun has almost never used, and it sounds obviously weird, and it is deliberately new for the sake of novelty.
Fortunately, the accompaniment didn't exaggerate all the time, and slowly began to "fall", and finally had an attitude of serving the song.
At the end, the song should be over, but the accompaniment climaxes again, and it is very gorgeous. This is arranging music for the songwriter, and it is simply arranging music to show off his skills.
After the abrupt end of the splendid and colorful accompaniment, everyone did not speak.
After realizing that they were all waiting for their opinions, Tong Yichun raised his head and said, "Let's not talk about this for now, let's take a look at the songs everyone chose." ”
Gan Kaicheng was not afraid to show his laziness, and instructed Yang Jingxing: "You come, it's all your business." ”
Yang Jingxing said: "Let's listen to Brother Yi Ban first." ”
Yi Banqian rang: "You come first!"
Yang Jingxing's attitude in this regard is still correct, and the more than 20 songs of the candidates have been sorted out, as well as his own text descriptions and recommendation levels.
All songs have samples, some are made by the author himself, some are made by Yang Jingxing, some are only sung by vocals, some are arranged versions, and some are arranged with vocals.
Everyone looked at the information compiled by Yang Jingxing, and Tong Yichun began to listen to it in the order in which Yang Jingxing was arranged, and smiled: "The form is scattered but the spirit is not dispersed, prose?"
Yang Jingxing admitted: "I don't understand, I think you might like it." ”
After listening to the first song, Gan Kaicheng spoke first: "Have you changed?"
Yang Jingxing said: "I didn't move. ”
Gan Kaicheng nodded at Tong Yichun: "It's not bad." ”
Tong Yichun also nodded: "It's okay." ”
Tong Yichun listened to the full version of the songs recommended by Yang Jingxing, and then slowly became impatient, and gave up after only listening to a few words of the last few songs.
Then listen to Yi Ban's two songs, the samples he made himself, and sang them by himself. The style is still the same, not a commercial songwriter, not only does the melody not catch the ears of ordinary fans, but even the song structure is strange, but it can be seen that the author has some talent.
Tong Yichun's evaluation is: "Interesting and creative. ”
Chang Yiming and Hao Shengfeng also said that it was good, and Yang Jingxing saw it farther: "It fits the feeling of "Falling" better. In contrast, I think "In the Wind Center" is too commercial and vulgar. ”
Yi Banha smiled: "Manager Yang is too modest. ”
Tong Yichun looked at Yang Jingxing's song recommendation form again, and concluded his speech: "Today is very rewarding, Xie Lu thanks everyone for their efforts during this time, I will carefully consider your suggestions and opinions, and I will stop here today." ”
So everyone sent Tong Yichun and Tong Zhenshu together, it was already more than eleven o'clock, it was time to plan for lunch, Yi Ban asked Gan Kai to invite guests, and got everyone's thanks.
Gan Kaicheng said, "You go and wait for dinner first, and I'll have a small meeting with 402...... Pang pity you don't have to go. ”
Lan Jingyue didn't leave, closed the door and whispered her opinion: "She doesn't have any opinions. ”
Gan Kaicheng laughed at Yang Jingxing: "What songs did you choose, I haven't heard of the author." ”
Yang Jingxing smiled: "Sympathy for the same disease, the song is not bad." "As the manager of Hongxing Company, he can also read the song submissions of pure scores, and he is indeed willing to promote newcomers.
Gan Kaicheng smiled and said to Pang Xi: "If Tong Yichun falls in love with Yang Jingxing, do you understand?"
Pang Xi didn't understand, Yang Jingxing didn't understand, Lan Jingyue understood, and explained to Pang Xi: "Worth, style...... See the boss to make an appointment!"
Pang Xi smiled and nodded, but Yang Jingxing said, "Don't listen to him." ”
Gan Kaicheng nodded: "Yes, I'm afraid that you will rob me of my producer's job...... Half an hour to go, go to my office for tea. ”
Pang Xi hurriedly said to Yang Jingxing: "I typed out the minutes of the meeting for you." ”
Yang Jingxing said: "No, I remember everything." ”
Pang Xi said: "It should be done." ”
Lan Jingyue was generous: "Let's just make one...... Take a look at your notebook. ”
For such a so-called meeting, Pang Xi drew many pages on his notepad and wrote down words like "bass flow".
Lan Jingyue also shared her book with Pang Xi, with a profound look: "Guess how much." ”
Pang Xi shook his head.
Lan Jingyue was proud: "Six thousand." My boss's words are all good words, of course, I have to remember Hermes's book!"
Yang Jingxing suggested to Pang Xi: "You go buy two rolls of toilet paper." ”
Lan Jingyue was modest again: "But this is cheap, only more than a hundred, but it is very easy to use." ”
Yang Jingxing looked at it and argued: "Your words are not as good-looking as Pang Xi." ”
Gan Kai Cheng Ha Luha: "What do you mean?"
