Chapter 7: Exaggeration
Du Haoqi is 23 years old this year, last year he participated in the new Cantonese singing and won the first place, and more importantly, he is a singer-songwriter!
Suffice it to say, he is now the future of music in Hong Kong City.
Du Haoqi has naturally heard of Lin Yi, but he has been exposed to European and American music since he was a child, but he actually doesn't look down on Lin Yi very much, he thinks that Lin Yi is just the tallest one among the short.
He wrote songs late into the night, and it wasn't until 1 a.m. that he finally recorded a demo.
And he once went to the next door to take a look at Lin Yi at eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, and found that Lin Yi was actually playing a musical instrument leisurely, without the slightest appearance of a competition, which made Du Haoqi annoyed and angry. However, it also made him aware that this so-called musical genius was nothing more than that.
"Hmph, look how you can laugh tomorrow!" Du Haoqi sneered.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Yang Boxun arrived as promised.
Du Haoqi first released his song sample, the melody is tactful but radical, although the lyrics are not very good, but the sense of rhythm is very good.
"Uh-huh, not bad. The artistic conception of this song is actually very good, especially the lyrics in the middle, and with such a melody, it directly brings out the high and tide of the whole song. A musician next to him commented and praised.
Yang Boxun also showed a pleased smile to Du Haoqi, this song is not too outstanding, although it is not enough as the title song, but it has also reached the threshold level of Yang Boxun's current album.
Du Haoqi enjoyed everyone's praise very much, and immediately looked at Lin Yi triumphantly, "Senior Lin, what about your song? I wrote a song until almost two o'clock last night, but I saw that you seemed to go to bed at twelve o'clock." It seems that Senior Lin's song should be well written, right?"
Hearing this, everyone turned their attention to Lin Yi.
Lin Yi has been retired for almost four years, and they all want to know, to what extent is Lin Yi's current level of songwriting? Will the songs written by retired geniuses be more ordinary than Du Haoqi?
Under the gaze of everyone, Lin Yi slowly took out the sample recorded last night.
"When someone asks me, I will speak, but no one comes. I look forward to helplessness, I have something to say, and I can't get loaded. The front is a very gentle melody, and with Lin Yi's somewhat awkward Cantonese, everyone can't help frowning.
When Du Haoqi heard this, he thought it was stable!
Then he began to skate farther and farther away like roller skating, and he had already beaten an unclimbable peak in the Chinese music scene in writing songs! And his future will not only be the future of the Cantonese music scene, but he is also the future of the Chinese music scene! As soon as he thought of this, a happy smirk appeared on his face.
"Do you think I'm pompous, if you think I'm exaggerated, exaggerated because I'm afraid!"
Everyone's hearts were gradually tugged, and they all put away the contempt that was about to be revealed, and a heavy look condensed on their faces.
"I don't want you to have a cup of tea, you can drink it to your heart's content! Don't forget that someone is here to sing for you!" Lin Yi, the last soprano, didn't sing very well, but it still shook everyone's hearts.
They looked at Lin Yi with solemn expressions, and felt that the genius of the Chinese music scene in front of them did not have Jiang Lang's talent in his four-year retirement life. Although the song and lyrics are a little less aura than before, they have a sense of vicissitudes of sinking.
After listening to this song, the sneer on Du Haoqi's face froze.
Seeing everyone's expressions, Lin Yi didn't have too many surprises.
The pompous song can be regarded as a very classic Cantonese song in another world. And the lyrics are also quite deep, but the superficial exaggeration hides fear, because of fear, he creates a pompous self, just to win everyone's attention.
"Okay!" Yang Boxun was stunned for a moment, and finally slowly spit out the word.
He had a myriad of words of praise in his heart at this time! But he pondered a lot, but he could only say a good word. The moment the song ended, he knew the song was what he wanted!
Several musicians present sighed that Lin Yi's genius was still sharp, and Du Haoqi wanted to find a thorn, but after thinking about it, the more he felt that the lyrics of this song were really good! ”
As soon as these words came out, there was an instant silence in the recording studio.
As a musician who has high hopes for the music of the entire port city, Du Haoqi is crazy, and they all know it. They also knew the gap between Du Haoqi and Lin Yi, but no one came forward to correct it.
"This melody is layered with emotion, plus the sublimation of the final explosion. The melody is not good music if it is very catchy, but more importantly, it is expressive. Yang Boxun patted Du Haoqi's shoulder, with a teaching in his eyes.
Du Haoqi just wanted to continue to refute, but looking at the gradually dull atmosphere in the room, he didn't argue anymore. He's crazy, but he's not stupid.
Then he looked at Lin Yi, who was chatting with everyone, and his eyes showed a light of jealousy.
"This song is so well written! I believe it will definitely take my Cantonese songs to the next level! Thank you, Lin Yi!" Yang Boxun expressed his heartfelt thanks to Lin Yi.
"It's okay, it's okay. Lin Yi said humbly.
After that, they talked a lot about music, and finally Yang Boxun asked, "When do you plan to make a comeback, the whole Chinese music scene is waiting for you." ”
"It's coming, it's coming. Lin Yi said perfunctorily, and then said casually, "Recently, life has been tight, you see that I have to borrow money from Jiang Tao for a ticket." ”
When Yang Boxun heard this, he immediately understood and hurriedly said, "That's it! Then I'll give you 800,000 yuan for this song first! And the follow-up profit dividend will also give you 5%." ”
Hearing this, a look of surprise appeared on Lin Yi's face.
800,000 plus 5 percent profit dividends! This kind of treatment is definitely the treatment of the top creators in the Chinese music circle where the awareness of copyright is not very strong. It can also be seen that Yang Boxun attaches great importance to and loves this song.
"Harm! Talking about money hurts feelings! But you have said so, then it is so decided! I will not agree to any more! Say it!" Lin Yi said decisively, and then raised his glass and touched a glass of boiled water with Yang Boxun.
Lin Yi's eyes hidden under the cup had the light of money!
This money is enough to buy a villa in that small county town! When the time comes, he may be able to move out with Tu Yuyan, and his life is worth looking forward to.
Next, Yang Boxun will return to Hong Kong City to start producing the album, and Lin Yi is also ready to return to Jiangyang, and only Jiang Tao who doesn't know where to go is left in Star City.
