235, to add insult to injury

After returning to the hotel, Gu Meng hid in his room alone and copied out ten polls that were once popular on the streets.

How do you choose one of the ten songs?

He discussed with Dou Wei and Chen Wei all night, but they didn't come up with a result.

The next day, he followed Shizuka Suzuki to the Kanayama office.

The Kanayama office is located in Chiyoda.

There is a famous street in Akihabara, which is known as the street of anime fans and otaku.

There are many anime character statues on the streets, and many anime fans come to visit all year round to buy figurines and electronic products in the duty-free shop.

The Kanayama office is located on the west side of Akihabara Station, on the third floor of the Electric Building.

The company is not large, but it has all kinds of organs, involving film and television, music, book publishing, animation, brokerage departments and so on.

Gu Meng came to the company and waited in the reception room for a while.

Before the tea arrived, Sakata, dressed in a formal suit, hurried over, followed by a group of curious employees.

Gu Meng smiled slightly, and took the initiative to get up to say hello, "Sakata-kun is disturbed, I have encountered difficulties, I hope to get your help." ”

Sakata was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect him to take the initiative to ask for help, and he was very happy.

"Gu Jun is polite, no matter what you send, just give orders!"

"Don't dare!"

Time is limited, Gu Meng talked about the difficulties encountered, and wanted to borrow Jinshan's music department to help choose songs.

"No problem!"

This kind of trivial matter, Sakata agreed.

There are five full-time musicians in the music department of Jinshan.

Sakata found five musicians on the spot and gave them a task to fully assist Gu Jun.

In the recording studio under Jinshan, the Raptors first sang the song and then asked five musicians to choose.

The best of the best were selected, and in the end, two songs were selected, which means that they can be comparable to the second-rate pop songs of the East, and if they are sung well, they can reach the first-class level.

"This song?"

Gu Meng was a little surprised to see the songs selected by the five people.

The other songs were copied by themselves, only the songwriter of this one was not himself, but Qingwen's husband in Dream of Red Mansions.

Qingwen's husband created a song, but he always felt that it was not good, and he never released it.

Once Sister Deng invited the crew of the Red Chamber to a café for a small gathering, and when she heard about it, Qingwen also sang this song live.

Sister Deng thought it was good, and told him about it again.

Hearing that it was this song, Gu Meng decided to buy the copyright of this song, but he didn't expect to use it.

"The song is chosen, let's concentrate on the performance!"

Gu Meng thanked the five musicians and handed over the lyrics and scores to Chen Wei and Dou Wei to see.

Dou Wei looked at it and was a little disgusted.

"Sing this song... Wouldn't it be too earthy?"

Gu Meng also felt dirty, but Oriental musicians thought it was appropriate, so they could only practice first.

All three tried to sing the song.

As a result, the tone was too high, and Dou Wei and Chen Wei couldn't sing.

Gu Meng could only reluctantly serve as the lead singer.

After a day of practice, Sakata took one person to the recording studio.

That person's name is Masato Watanabe, a famous music producer, who works in the Warner Pioneer music department, and once served as the head of the album for Hideki Nishijo, Goro Noguchi and others, and now the popular singer Akina Nakamori is his disciple.

Sakata asked Watanabe to help Gu Meng perfect the song.

It is not enough for a song to have lyrics and songs, but also needs more instruments to achieve a shocking effect.

There are also obvious flaws in Gu Meng's singing, and a master must adjust it.

"Gu Jun, please sing once!"

"Good!"

Masato Watanabe is a somewhat eccentric old man.

In his fifties, he was casually dressed, with a scruffy beard and some unkempt.

is a little taciturn, and after coming, he didn't say hello, sat outside the recording room, and directly asked Gu Meng to start singing.

As soon as Gu Meng opened his voice, he was stopped.

"Gu Jun, please let go of your voice as much as possible, it's okay to be rough, this song belongs to the category of folk songs, there is no need to be too delicate, too delicate is not natural enough, folk songs are about nature"

"Good!"

Gu Meng sang loudly according to his meaning, as if he was standing on the Green Ridge Mountain, standing on the loess plateau of Hongtan Town, and standing on the edge of the Yellow River.

After singing more than twenty times, his voice became hoarse.

Because he sings very hard, and after singing, he often sweats, and the amount of exercise is no less than running 10,000 meters.

Watanabe called a timeout.

"Mr. Watanabe, is it okay now?" Gu Meng asked.

Watanabe ignored him and muttered quietly alone.

If you want to be welcomed by Oriental fans, you must reflect the characteristics of China, the historical heritage, the atmosphere, and the shock, these are the characteristics that the Orient lacks, and they must be expressed, how to express it?"

Gu Meng listened on the side, feeling that what he said was very reasonable.

If the music of one nation wants to conquer another nation, it must either do better or do what others do not have.

This is that no one has me, and no one has me.

"Please give me a day to think about it, and I'll give you an answer tomorrow"

Watanabe said hello, and no one wanted to send it, thinking about walking out of the studio, completely a workaholic.

After Watanabe left, Dou Wei and Chen Wei continued to practice in the recording studio.

Gu Meng was invited by Sakata to the small tearoom next to him.

"Gu Jun, there have been two pieces of news in the newspaper in the past few days that are very unfavorable to you. ”

"Two?"

Gu Meng frowned slightly, there are still two unfavorable news?

What is it?

He doesn't know Japanese, and he hasn't read a newspaper lately, so he's a little curious.

"Sakata-kun, please speak!"

Sakata took a sip of tea and said with a solemn expression, "The last time you had a conflict with the Gun Flower Band at the airport, this incident was photographed by the Asahi Shimbun reporter, and after the report, the fans of the Gun Flower Band began to connect and prepare to embarrass you when you perform on stage."

Gu Meng was stunned for a moment, "Do you have a lot of fans in the Gun Flower Band?"

"Not much, but due to historical reasons, Oriental fans are psychologically more inclined to the United States singers, and when there is a conflict between the United States Band and the Huaxia Band, they will tend to help the United States Band. ”

Gu Meng understands that the little devil has always bullied the weak and feared the hard, and likes to lick and eat the strong to get the nutrition of growth.

"Sakata-kun, this music festival is held at the Budokan, there are tens of thousands of people on the scene, and they can connect a few, and it doesn't have much impact. ”

"No!"

Sakata shook his head, took out a newspaper from his handbag, opened it and pointed to a piece of news on it and said:

"Gu Jun, there was a news report yesterday that photographed you running into the hospital with a lady in your arms, and after investigation, the lady was Ms. Teresa Teng. ”

"That's not bad news, is it?"

Gu Meng didn't expect this incident to be exposed, and he also took a photo of him running wildly with people in his arms.

"It is said that afterwards, you and Teresa Teng sat together for dinner and talked affectionately, and it was rumored that you were a hero who saved the beauty and won the heart of a beautiful woman, and the two of you are dating. ”

Gu Meng laughed, "It's just lace news, so what?"

Sakata shook his head, "Ms. Teresa Teng has a lot of male fans in the East, and she is in a jealous state, they are not only jealous of your relationship with Ms. Teresa Teng, but also your status in the hearts of Oriental women, so they will have malicious intentions towards you." ”

This one... Quite possibly!

For example, if a domestic female star has an affair with a Korean stick, domestic people will naturally not like that Korean male star, which is a little jealous.

"So, the current public opinion situation is not good for me!"

"Exactly, I said this because I wanted Gu Jun to be fully psychologically prepared before going on stage, so as not to be disturbed by fans and affect the performance. ”

Gu Meng nodded, held the teacup and said, "Thank you Sakata-kun for reminding me!"

The band is an organization, and when something happened, Gu Meng didn't hide it, and found Chen Wei and Dou Wei to discuss it.

"So what do we do now?"

"There is no choice but to go all out!"

"Okay, let's just work together and shake the little devils!"

"Okay, come on!"

The next day, Watanabe pulled a huge instrument in a car, which was really oversized, very atmospheric, substantial, and shocking.

Gu Meng performed with a tuba instrument

The producers of Sakata and Kanayama Music Department applauded, believing that the performance had reached a first-class level, and that it would definitely shock the fans in the audience.

It's just that Watanabe was still not satisfied after watching it, and muttered, "Missing a little, natural and harmonious music pays attention to the combination of rigidity and softness, your performance is too masculine, a little missing." ”

The next day, he made another suggestion.

Gu Meng was embarrassed, and it was not easy to do.

It makes sense not to make a transition, he can only bite the bullet.

How effective it will be, no one knows.

After two days of practice, on October 26th, the Tokyo Rock Festival began. 2k net
