343 Campaigning for overseas billboards
In his previous life, Wei Xun focused on the film career and was not deeply involved in music, so his own music level was average.
However, this music standard is average, and it is also relatively speaking.
For example, relative to his terrifying cinematic talent.
Although there is definitely no way to compare with a diva like Lin Zi, he has also undergone various professional training such as lyrics and musical instruments.
At least as a music creator, Wei Xun can perfectly reproduce the songs that were once popular on the earth.
And now the song "Shake It Off" that Wei Xun has taken out is a very popular and popular English song.
After the song was released that year, it won the music charts in Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Poland, and Hungary, and entered the first place on the Billboard Top 100 singles chart in the United States, becoming the 22nd "first weekly top single" on the Billboard Top 100 singles chart.
It can be said that although this song may not have any potential for golden songs, in pop music, it is definitely at the level of Wang Bang.
After all, pop music, the heaviest thing is pop.
And the reason why "Shake It Off" is so popular is because of its boldness and personality.
Because of the style of the female singer Taylor Swift who sang this song, even in the open Omi circle, she is full of personality.
Among them, the most criticized is probably that she keeps changing various boyfriends, and she is always criticized by the media and the people who eat melons.
This point is actually somewhat similar to Lin Zi.
It's just that Lin Zi's style is a little more subtle, and our country's culture is more traditional, and Lin Zi, who has changed a few little fresh meat boyfriends, has a bad reputation.
But Lin Zi himself didn't mind much.
So Wei Xun thought about it for a long time these days, and turned out this song "Shake It Off" from his brain inventory.
However, the music of the Omi style is almost incompatible with the Chinese music style, because both in terms of lyrics and composition, it is too 'bold'.
So Lin Zi, who just now still had 'There is no female singer bolder than me in the Huaxia circle' and 'I dare to sing whatever song you come up with', hesitated after watching "Shake It Off".
She looked at Wei Xun and asked, "Mr. Wei, are you sure that I won't be hacked by the media and netizens when I take out this song?"
First of all, these lyrics are a little unacceptable in Lin Zi's opinion.
The smell of gunpowder is too strong, and it is a provocation from beginning to end.
Let's not talk about whether this song will trigger a backlash from the media and the public, let's just say that this spicy style is difficult to have a market in China.
The pop music market in China in recent years has always been the world of love songs.
This point, as a contemporary pop music diva, Lin Zi is still very sure.
"Over the years, when have you ever cared about the media's opinions? Or to put it another way, when I was hacked the worst, didn't I also block all the voices of the outside world and walked out on my own. ”
Wei Xun said with a smile: "Why don't you try to sing it first, and you don't necessarily have to force you to post this song, but I've already written it, you always have to sing it again to know if it's suitable for you, right?"
Lin Zi said helplessly when he heard this: "Okay, then I'll familiarize myself with the score first, but to be honest, Mr. Wei, I may not be suitable for your song." ”
It's not that Lin Zi doesn't know what to do, she is giving Wei Xun a vaccination in advance, saying that she will refuse the song "Shake It Off".
As the queen of the music industry, Lin Zi has worked hard in the music industry for more than ten years to have today's status, so he must be very cautious when picking songs.
Wei Xun smiled, still the old saying: "Whether it is suitable or not, sing it once first." ”
So Lin Zi made an 'ok' gesture to familiarize himself with the score.
About half an hour later, the guitarists, basses, and drummers in the studio were in place.
Everyone is actually not familiar with the tune, and Lin Zi himself has just gotten this song, but because there is a score here, it is not difficult to try to go through it first.
Wei Xun stood outside the recording studio, looking at Lin Zi inside through the transparent glass.
He wears headphones in his ears to pick up the music in the studio.
Lin Zi motioned to a few musicians to get ready, and then after the prelude began, she sang: "I stay out too late, Got nothing in my brain, That's what people say, mmm-mmm......"
To be honest, whether it is the Chinese music circle or the Omi music circle, anyone who can become a king and queen cannot be incapable.
Lin Zi's timbre is great, and his words are clear and full of energy, and he is also very explosive when he sings.
Although I just got the song "Shake It Off", I was still able to get into the groove quickly and sang it with a lot of feeling.
This kind of super musical talent is something that Wei Xun can't match at all.
However, before he finished listening to a song, Wei Xun still frowned.
Because Lin Zi is singing with her super music skills, but she is not confident enough, or she doesn't think that this song can be popular in China, so she is very 'perfunctory' emotionally.
I don't have that explosive energy full of personality.
Not bold enough.
"Stop, Sister Lin Zi. ”
Wei Xun made a pause gesture outside the glass wall, then pushed the door and walked into the recording studio, sighed, and said, "The singing is terrible." ”
Lin Zi was a little embarrassed, but she knew that Wei Xun was right, and said helplessly: "Maybe this song is really not suitable for me, at present, the Huaxia market is not very interested in this kind of spicy and bold song." ”
"Why do you have to release songs in Huaxia? Sister Lin Zi, I think you should change your thinking now, I know, because your previous song was forcibly removed from the shelves by two music channels, you are very anxious, eager to release a new song, to contact other new music channels. But now that you are at the top of the Chinese music circle, why do you have to be confined to this small circle?"
Wei Xun said seriously: "You have been saying just now that the song "Shake It Off" is not suitable for the music circle of Huaxia, but you have never revealed to me that this song is not suitable for you, which means that you still like this song in your heart, right." ”
Lin Zi was silent for a moment and said, "Yes." ”
"The reason why my song is written in such a spicy style, completely ignoring the Chinese market, is because I want you to sing it overseas, this time, we don't release the song in China, but choose to go to the billboard in the United States. ”
Wei Xun said with a smile: "How about it, after being a diva in China for more than ten years, do you want to go to Omi Circle to be angry?"
Hearing Wei Xun's words, Lin Zi was shocked.
Going to the Omega Circle?
China's pan-entertainment culture started late, so there is a big gap between it and Omi in terms of movies and music standards.
There are few actors in the film industry who can occasionally be familiar with each other in Hollywood.
But music singers can make some achievements overseas, but over the years, there are basically none.
