Chapter 465: Setting the Tone

On Friday morning, Yang Jingxing first sent a few text messages to Qi Qingnuo. Qi Qingnuo will definitely be busier today, so he will first put the thoughts that should be expressed in place.

After arriving at the company, Pang Xi gave Yang Jingxing a notice to go to the editorial department for a meeting at nine o'clock, but before nine o'clock, Zhou Shenjian, the manager of the planning department, called Yang Jingxing's desk directly.

Zhou Shenjian first asked Yang Jingxing if he was at the company, if he had breakfast, if he was busy, since Yang Jingxing said that he was not busy, he said: "We are going to have a small meeting with Dai Qing, Tan Muwen also thinks that it is impossible to do without you, do you think you come down or we go up?"

Yang Jingxing regretted it: "I didn't pretend to be busy when I knew that I wouldn't be busy, the editorial department was waiting for the preparation of Tong Yichun's new specialty, and I took the initiative to apply to participate yesterday." What are you going to do?"

Zhou Shenjian apologized: "Ouch, blame me for not informing you earlier." It's also a temporary arrangement, the new song has been fierce these days, and the relationship between Manager Gan, so it's always interesting, hehe......"

Yang Jingxing said: "I watch the excitement everywhere I go, and I can barely understand a little bit in the editorial department, and the planning department will definitely not be able to keep up with the ......."

Zhou Shenjian laughed: "Lao Gan can't understand anyone over there, I, whoever comes, thinks it's like that." That's it, you get busy with yours first, and I'll discuss it with them. ”

About a time later, Yang Jingxing and Pang Xi went to invite Chang Yiming's apprentice downstairs. Today's participants have changed slightly, on the basis of last time, there is less Yi Ban, and there are more talented women Li Xin and Wu Yuan, both of whom signed with Hongxing.

Li Xin and Yang Jingxing are familiar, after all, they have worked together and are even nominal partners. Wu Yuan and Yang Jingxing have only met once, and they greeted Qi Qingnuo and Yu Xinting when they brought them to visit the studio, but today they still remember each other and are enthusiastic about each other.

Li Xin was pleasantly surprised and asked Wu Yuan: "You know, I haven't heard you say it." ”

Yang Jingxing smiled: "It's not worth mentioning." ”

Wu Yuan explained to Li Xin: "I was in a hurry and didn't say a word." ”

Yang Jingxing is also troubled: "Mr. Wu, let me introduce you, this is my colleague, Pang Xi." ”

Pang Xi also cooperated: "Hello Mr. Wu." ”

Wu Yuan responded and explained to everyone: "Gan Kaicheng called me yesterday, I thought something was going ...... Lu."

Gan Kaicheng came soon, apologized to Li Xin and Wu Yuan, and gave you a summary of the theme of today's meeting before Tong Yichun came.

Tong Yichun and Tong Jinshu are very punctual every time, but they are also sorry to keep everyone waiting. Tong Yichun and Li Xin have known each other for a long time, and they seem to respect Wu Yuan a lot, and they wish each other a happy cooperation before they have made a decision.

After a little greeting, Tong Yichun has already revised and adjusted Yang Jingxing's ideas as a whole, and it seems to be more systematic, standardized and clear. Tong Zhenshu distributed, everyone has a copy first.

When everyone looked at the purpose, Tong Yichun elaborated on his expectations a little, focusing on the new Li Xin and Wu Yuan, the typical creative women's gang will definitely produce sparks, and I feel that the men present are all hands-on.

Gan Kaicheng is a hundred supporters, and he is full of confidence in Li Xin and Wu Yuan, and he is looking forward to it.

Tong Yichun also asked Yang Jingxing: "What does Manager Yang think?"

Yang Jingxing was surprised: "I have the same opinion as Manager Gan, the difference is that he is not under pressure, and I am under more and more pressure." ”

Hao Shengfeng also said that he was under pressure, and Gan Kaicheng harmed Yang Jingxing: "What pressure do you have?

Yang Jingxing looked aggrieved and didn't defend himself, so Wu Yuan comforted: "Manager Gan is joking, you told me yesterday that you are very good." ”

In fact, many people were laughing, so Tong Yichun took the opportunity to explain: "I also have high hopes for Manager Yang, but you don't have pressure, we believe in you." ”

Yang Jingxing couldn't hold on to the wall: "It's bigger." ”

Gan Kai gave a lesson: "Don't talk nonsense, have you finished reading it?"

Yang Jingxing shook his head: "No." ”

Everyone had no opinion on Tong Yichun's decision, only Gan Kaicheng said two irrelevant words that could be adjusted at any time. The next thing is to clarify the division of labor, the most important thing is the song, and it is not like Yang Jingxing who chooses it in a haystack, directly invited, and directly customized.

Yi Ban's two songs, Tong Yichun is a little skeptical now, so he put them first. Wu Yuan has to take on the heavy responsibility, although she is humble that her current production is too low, but Tong Yichun believes that it is the guarantee of quality.

Tong Yichun also knows Wu Yuan, so the hope and suggestion given is that Wu Yuan can write two songs, and according to her central idea, one is intellectual and cheerful, and the other is sensual and touching. Of course, this kind of generalization is too abstract, and the specific details require everyone's collective wisdom.

Wu Yuan's qualifications are not as inferior as Yang Jingxing, although his posture is modest, but it can be regarded as reassuring to everyone.

Tong Yichun also clearly expressed his liking for "In the Wind Center", and Yang Jingxing's creative style is changeable, and Li Xin is not rigid, so the best plan is that the two can cooperate on two more masterpieces. Of course, the so-called boutique is not to let ordinary fans say it is good, but to be praised by expert connoisseurs.

Li Xin looked at Yang Jingxing with a smile: "I think that as long as there is enough time, it shouldn't be a problem." ”

Tong Yichun also looked at Yang Jingxing and said: "Actually, I know that Manager Yang has a lot of good ideas in his heart, as long as you communicate more with Miss Li, you will definitely be able to spark and be confident!"

Gan Kaicheng smiled: "Did you hear that?"

Yang Jingxing nodded and apologized to Li Xin: "I may be sorry for your words again, but I will do my best." ”

Li Xin smiled: "I like "In the Wind Center" very much, really!"

Then when it came to the arrangement, Tong Yichun confessed: "I don't know much about this, so I asked a few teachers to give more professional and valuable advice...... Manager Gan. ”

Gan Kaicheng is also modest: "Arranger, I'm also half-hanging, Yibo, you can talk about it." ”

Shen Yibo said: "Look at this, the requirements are relatively clear and mature...... Detailed......"

Hao Shengfeng said: "I am responsible for the simple ones, and I am responsible for the complex ones." Tong Yichun simplified Yang Jingxing's specific ideas for orchestration and sound texture, so as to give everyone space.

The experts are conservative and modest, and Tong Yichun can only name him: "Manager Yang, you can talk about it, be specific." ”

Yang Jingxing stubbornly said: "Immature ideas, throwing bricks and leading jade, Brother Feng and Brother Bo criticize ......"

Gan Kai pleaded: "Can you save these words?"

Everyone laughed, Lan Jingyue was quite loud, and Hao Shengfeng encouraged Yang Jingxing: "Come here like this, you can say whatever you want, no one laughs at you." ”

Yang Jingxing began to say: "I have thought of a template according to Miss Tong's ideas in the past two days, since we want to highlight the three-dimensional and grand feeling of derivation, the elements must be diversified. First of all, Miss Tong's own song "Mountains and Lakes", to have a sense of picture, you can only find it from the style. I think the melody of the song has a bit of an Irish feel, and I venture to guess that it may have something to do with Miss Tong's life in Europe......"

Tong Yichun smiled: "Sort of, right?"

Yang Jingxing said: "In this case, I want to simply use the Irish harmonica and bagpipes." But because of the lyrics, we can't make Enya or the Mysterious Garden, and then look at this song, I feel that the lyrics have some narrative, in addition to being indifferent, there is also a bit of nostalgia, nostalgia is our long-standing culture, so in the arrangement, can we boldly try to combine Chinese and Western. ”

Tong Yichun nodded and asked, "What do the two teachers think?"

Hao Shengfeng encouraged: "Go on." ”

Shen Yibo said: "If you don't think about recording production, I think it's okay. ”

Chang Yiming smiled: "I can find a professional." ”

Wu Yuan also expressed his opinion: "The idea is very good, but the idea is only the first step, you continue to talk about it." ”

Yang Jingxing continued: "If this song really establishes this style, then what direction should its next evolution take, I will consider whether it can be made into a song that is mainly Chinese and supplemented by the West......"

Yang Jingxing is not just throwing bricks, he is simply dragging a few truckloads of bricks to show off, and he feels that he is the producer who has worked hard.

The excessive enthusiasm shown by the newcomers made everyone listen carefully, and the seniors even took notes. But Gan Kaicheng will also laugh: "You said everything, and I still said something." ”

Yang Jingxing was aggrieved: "You asked me to say it." ”

Gan Kaicheng said: "Young people are energetic and their ideas are good, but Xiao Wu also said that ideas are not worth much......

Wu Yuan smiled: "It's still Xiao Wu, I really thought you were an old godmother." ”

Everyone laughed, and Tong Yichun was worried: "Is there any difficulty in implementation?"

Gan Kaicheng shook his head: "No...... As long as there is money. ”

Tong Yichun smiled, and Tong Zhenshu spoke: "We will communicate with the company about this." ”

Hao Shengfeng is optimistic: "This shouldn't be a problem." ”

Shen Yibo, who had been thinking about it, suddenly asked Yang Jingxing: "Four and two, you said that the album has a total of two themes, so can the rest of the songs be implicitly ...... Like an easter egg. ”

"It's a good idea, but it's going to be more complicated to make, and it doesn't mean much to the listener, or we can have all the songs end in the same but subtle way, but it's not serious enough," Yang said. ”

Wu Yuan said: "Speaking of the form and the spirit is not scattered, this is also an idea, and if it is added to the arrangement, it will cause a lot of surprise to the audience." ”

......

The discussion continued, everyone was very enthusiastic, and the direction of efforts was also the same, but it was more or less difficult to reconcile, Tong Yichun tried to maintain the central position, and Gan Kaicheng occasionally spoke strongly.

The discussion is also getting more and more heated, because now I don't agree with an album that doesn't have to think too much about the market, and everyone has a lot of talent to show. Especially Shen Yibo, who was still silent at first, but later grabbed the words again and again, and Wu Yuan forgot his identity and took the lead, so that Yang Jingxing could only stand aside.

Finally, on the issue of easter eggs, Tong Yichun and Gan Kaicheng adopted Yang Jingxing's opinion, and the contrasting songs can be artificially arranged in the arrangement, and even try to add an identical harmony to the opposing styles, and rely on the change of instruments and rhythm to highlight the effect. Li Xin's professional thinks that the implicit echo of the lyrics will also be very good, and Wu Yuan is quite supportive.

Tong Yichun didn't seem to be so rigorous and harsh, and she showed obvious excitement and joy for the idea of easter eggs, and even slapped the table a little out of shape: "It will definitely be very interesting." ”

It's past lunchtime, and the musicians are still very forgetful. At about one o'clock, Tong Zhenshu finally reminded Tong Yichun, but Tong Yichun said, "Is it okay to skip lunch? ”

Everyone is in charge, and morale is rising instead of falling.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, an idea that seemed quite interesting was talked about more concretely. Yang Jingxing drew an imaginary relationship diagram like a spider's web on the small blackboard on the spot, a total of twelve songs, and the correspondence was chaotic...... There are more than a dozen musicians in a room, like children playing at home.

At the end, when Tong Yichun happily decided to invite guests to dinner, Gan Kaicheng began to pour cold water, saying that details determine success or failure, and how many details will there be in an album with such a complex conception, and how difficult it will be to succeed.

Tong Yichun also said that in order to do a good job in this album, everyone present must cooperate closely, and it is best to reach the level of intimacy, so that thoughts and wisdom can unhindered and exert the power of unity.

Tong Yichun even felt that everyone should not subdivide the work too much, everyone contributed, but unfortunately he didn't get much approval, and Gan Kaicheng, the boss, felt that the right to decide was necessary.

The group went to eat, and when they saw it, no one's car was more expensive than Yang Jingxing's, including Tong Zhenshu's domestic SUV.

Gan Kaicheng and Lan Jingyue got into Yang Jingxing's car again without suspicion, Pang Xi was still sorting out his notes, and Gan Kaicheng praised: "Xiao Pang is really good, you can remember him talking so much nonsense." ”

Pang Xihehe: "Blind." ”

Lan Jingyue said: "At first, I felt fresh, but after watching too much, you don't want to remember." ”

Yang Jingxing said: "I will talk less nonsense in the future." ”

Lan Jingyue complained: "Manager Yang dared to steal the limelight from my boss, and it was my boss who used to give instructions to respond to every call!"

Yang Jingxing was bold: "A meal, remember it first." ”

Gan Kaicheng said seriously: "You bluffed people today, you have to keep up later, work hard, the producer is not so good, you can't rely on talent alone." ”

Go to a hotel that is not simple or too luxurious to eat, and after sitting at the table, everyone relaxes and says something boring but not cold.

Shen Yibo's answer to his wife's phone became a talking point led by Gan Kaicheng, while Hao Shengfeng reminded everyone to pay attention to Yang Jingxing who sent text messages, and Tong Yichun thanked everyone again.

Shen Yibo suddenly asked: "Four and two, do you know Luo Chang from your school?"

Yang Jingxing shook his head: "I don't know many people. ”

Shen Yibo smiled: "My high school classmate, he was admitted to Puyin, but I didn't." ”

Yang Jingxing asked, "Teacher?"

Shen Yibo nodded: "The recording department has recorded it for you." ”

Yang Jingxing asked: "Is it thin, the glasses on his head, about 1.75 meters?"

Shen Yibo nodded: "Yes, yes, it's him." ”

Yang Jingxing smiled: "I heard the student call him Teacher Luo, but I only went once, and I didn't have a chance to meet him." ”

Shen Yibo smiled.

Gan Kaicheng smiled: "You guys are still in a relationship, don't say it earlier, he has a treat, senior!"

Shen Yibo smiled: "Don't dare to be." ”

Li Xin smiled: "It's quite a coincidence, and it's also fate." ”

Hao Shengfeng has the most say on the issue of fate, he once traveled in an unfamiliar city. When I met a beautiful childhood playmate I hadn't seen for more than ten years, and the other party's child was older, that feeling......

Everyone laughed, Shen Yibo didn't seem to listen, and suddenly asked Yang Jingxing: "How did you think of Hongxing?"

Yang Jingxing said: "Manager Gan took good care of me, and said that the seniors were very good and didn't lie to me." ”

Gan Kaicheng looked at Shen Yibo and asked, "What, Hongxing can't tolerate geniuses?"

Shen Yibo smiled: "That's not what it means. ”

Yang Jingxing said: "Hongxing is not good at this, and the editorial manager likes to be cynical. ”

Tong Yichun smiled: "Manager Gan actually likes you very much, you can see it." ”

Gan Kaicheng clarified: "I only like beautiful women, and a little appreciation is true. ”

Everyone laughed, and Yang Jingxing was sad: "I'll just say it, it's not sarcasm, it's sarcasm." ”

Li Xin criticized: "402, I'm sorry for Manager Gan if you say that." ”
