The next day was Monday, and instead of going to school, Li Xiaoru went straight to Jason's recording studio to record her piano accompaniment, and it was only at this time that she met Jason Harmer for the first time.

Since Liu Yan came to the United States, in just a few days, Li Xiaoru has lived a very fulfilling and mysterious life every day, and she doesn't dare to do it in her daydreams - she can meet Jason Harmer face to face, Jason smiled at her and said Hi, took the initiative to shake her hand, and said, "I hope we have a happy cooperation." ”

If it weren't for Liu Yan who was also present and was her backing, she might have cried excitedly.

Usually each part of a pop song is recorded separately, and then mixed in the later stage, Liu Yan has completed the harmony and guqin accompaniment part she is responsible for, provided that there are no problems in the later stage - that Cohen is demanding, and it is inevitable to pick out two thorns. Before this, Liu Yan didn't know what instrument would be used for the main theme of this song, but according to the popular science that Xue Yunfei and Huo Ming gave her before, she knew that most of the accompaniment of popular songs was piano (electronic organ), guitar bass and drums, and there might be strings in the high-end ones.

Liu Yan's guqin is only a part of the climactic melody, and the rest of the part Jason can't sing a cappella.

Jason's past songs, more than half of which are his own accompaniment, he is good at a variety of instruments, harmonica, sask, guitar, he also plays a good piano, pop music piano and classical piano are two different things, Jason's skills are certainly not as good as the "academic" performers, but the accompaniment to play his own songs is definitely more than enough, in the past in his concerts, he often sang while playing, and various instruments took turns to play.

Liu Yan always thought that the main instrument of the song might be the harmonica, because the version of the song that Jason gave her in China was a pure harmonica accompaniment, but that recording was the original version recorded by Jason in his music room at home, with improvisational elements, and it was not even recorded in the studio. Even if Jason doesn't play in person, he has a super-professional team behind him who can do all the work, so there's no need to choose a novice who hasn't graduated from college yet.

The staff in charge of recording this song in the recording studio all understood that Jason was "ingratiating" Liu Yan again.

Jason is exchanging music scores with Li Xiaoru, which is funny, and foreign netizens have discussed all kinds of them, and there are exaggerated claims that Li Xiaoru is going to become Jason's royal pianist. However, Li Xiaoru only got the score now that she knew what the melody was.

Today, the recording studio is full of people, the greasy Scott and the fastidious Cohen are there, Scott is here to discuss with Liu Yan about shooting the MV. Scott uncharacteristically welcomed Li Xiaoru's joining, Jason's willfulness this time was approved by him, and he easily persuaded him for two reasons, first, Li Xiaoru accompanied, they don't have to pay a penny - the performance team is not low, Jason can save energy, Scott can save costs; Li Xiaoru is a student of Julia, and exchange students are also students, and Scott has a bit of an alumnus plot, although he is not obligated to take care of alumni, but at least he should not embarrass a fledgling young man.

This is also the reason why the recording studio is located next to the Conservatory, and in addition, when Scott interviewed Cohen, Cohen's Juilliard alumnus status is also the reason why Scott has a high impression of him. Cohen's reaction was very cold, he sat on the side, and didn't say a word to Li Xiaoru.

Li Xiaoru's attention is all on Jason, she is not a fan of Jason, but it does not prevent Jason from being a god-like existence in her heart. To be honest, this piece is much simpler than those classical tracks, but when she took the art exam in high school, she was not as stressed as she is now - Liu Yan helped her and provided her with a chance to go directly to heaven, and she couldn't embarrass Liu Yan.

After communicating with Jason, Li Xiaoru first played according to Jason's requirements, and at her level, even if it was the first time to play, there was no mistake, and the rhythm was almost perfect, so that Jason and Scott nodded with satisfaction, and Cohen had nothing to say.

"Look, I've always had a good eye," Jason said to Scott, "and we should be able to play the main theme in one go." ”

"You have finally made a wise decision, maybe we can consider cooperating with Li Xiaoru for a long time in the future, if she has been free or asks for very low remuneration. ”

Hearing the conversation between the two, Cohen's eyes appeared a haze, and he saw Amanda standing not far away, quietly enjoying Li Xiaoru's performance,

He walked over and said to Amanda in a non-worrying tone, "We have never had so many yellow women here, if J continues to do it, we will be surrounded by yellow people!"

Amanda frowned, shushed him, and said sternly, "Please don't spread this kind of racial, racial and discriminatory ideas in front of me, don't you know that I'm Latino, I'm a woman, and you're implying that I shouldn't work here?"

Cohen is a producer, and his position is much higher than Amanda's, but he was reprimanded by Amanda, not only was he not angry, but he also didn't have the self-deprecating self-deprecation consciousness, and further stimulated her to say, "J hasn't given you a harmony task, you haven't made any extra money, you should have been idle for a year, what else have you done besides the receptionist?" You get the lowest salary in the company, and you have overbearing contract restrictions, you can't work for other singers, and you can't earn a penny of extra money, I admire that you can still persevere, is it all about J's enthusiasm and power for love?"

Cohen stared at her pitifully, "Oh my God, I finally released a new song, but your job was taken away by a Chinese Internet celebrity, you must not know, everyone in the company is betting in private that you will either find Liu Yan to "work hard" or resign." ”

He tries to provoke Amanda and provoke her.

Unexpectedly, Amanda didn't fall into the trap at all, but laughed and mocked unruly, "I just knew that you were a gossip microphone, and I'm sorry to tell you that I will neither 'work hard' nor resign, in high-consumption New York, as long as I don't suck du, don't Du Bo, the receptionist's salary is enough to support myself," she came here and raised her eyes to look at Li Xiaoru, who had already finished playing the piano, "In addition, talent has nothing to do with race, please put away your prejudices." If the public learns that you, the famous gold medal producer, are a race, a discriminator....."

"I'm not!" Cohen immediately interrupted.

"And what do you mean by that?"

Cohen snorted coldly as he was annoyed by Amanda's questioning.

Liu Yan heard the unusual sound and looked back at them, and Jason called to him, "Hey, Cohen, don't gossip there, start recording." ”

Cohen was expressionless, shook his hand and walked into the recording studio.

Jason was puzzled, "What's the matter with him? I think he's weird this time, and that's the same with the last recording." ”

"He's probably just in a bad mood," Scott seemed to know something, but didn't tell Jason.
