Chapter 135: Write a song for him?

With the arrival of the musicians one after another, the three of them also ended the discussion and switched to the recording studio to play Xiao Yao's three tunes to listen to the effect. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Since Shen Yinan and Xiao Yao both went into battle in person, Xiao Siqi stayed on the operating table as the recording engineer to record the musicians' performances.

This group of musicians are relatively mature musicians, and this performance is just to record a sample to listen to the effect, and to prepare for the improvement of the soundtrack arrangement later, not to make the official version of the sound source, without the pursuit of perfection and zero flaws. So these three tunes were recorded in one day.

"This kind of music sounds really good. Shen Yinan, who had listened to the three song samples, nodded first and said, "But in order to achieve very good results, I think the configuration we agreed on in advance may not be enough." ”

"You mean a dozen or so is too many. Xiao Siqi asked.

"Yes," Shen Yinan said, "Just talking about the three pieces of Bayi, in addition to "Dream Water Town", if the other two pieces want to have a good effect on the stage, I think it is best to prepare four for each erhu and pipa, two for the guzheng, two for the dulcimer, and four for the piccolo, plus Xiao and Xun. In this way, the orchestra must be a team of nearly twenty people. ”

"This lineup is about to catch up with the symphony orchestra, plus the musicians of modern Western instruments, I'm afraid the stage will not be crowded during this live performance, right?" Xiao Siqi frowned and said, "According to the meaning of Bayi, when this orchestra performs on stage, it is not all standing still on the stage, such as the flute, Xiao, Xun, these wind instruments in the hand, and the erhu, which can be fixed on the body with a waist support, all need a certain amount of space to move around on the stage to mobilize the audience's atmosphere." ”

"This configuration mentioned by Grandpa Shen is for thoughtful consideration, in fact, not every song needs to use twenty people... No, most tunes don't use so many people. Xiao Yao said, "Some players in football are called jack-of-all-trades because they can play multiple positions, and some players can make temporary cameos in some other positions called multi-talented." We can do the same by giving preference to musicians who are good at multiple instruments at the same time.

There are certain commonalities in the same type of musical instruments, such as flute, piccolo and xiao, and there should be these three at the same time, right? Even folk music and Western musical instruments should be played, such as those who can play both the erhu and the violin, the flute and the saxophone, the guzheng and the piano, the pipa and the guitar, we will adjust the personnel according to different tunes, just like the football coach arranges the troops according to the needs, which should reduce the number of personnel needed. ”

"It's a way," Shen Yinan thought for a while and nodded, "Although not everyone who plays musical instruments can play more than a dozen musical instruments like you, it is also common to know two or three instruments." What do you think is the right size for the orchestra, and are there any lessons you can draw from?"

"I can't say this either. But I think we can skip the size of the Death Orchestra. It is very difficult for a team of more than a dozen people to maintain a stable personnel for a particularly long time. Aren't we going to choose people? We can also prepare a certain number of substitutes at the same time as selecting members, whether the members need to leave the orchestra for a short time for some special reasons, or quit the orchestra for personal reasons, we can also find a replacement in a very short time. Xiao Yao said, "These are basically all the ideas I can think of." ”

"Okay, it's hard for you to think of so much," Xiao Siqi nodded with satisfaction, "Let's discuss it with the rest of the department about how to do it." Xiao Yao's hard work during this time, Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying also saw it, saying that they wanted to put some pressure on Xiao Yao to participate in more work, but they really saw that Xiao Yao had spent almost all of his weekends and holidays on work since the beginning of school, and the two felt a little distressed. "It's been almost two months, you seem to have only had a weekend off, right? You've worked hard for a while, take a good rest for a while, and we'll do it ourselves. ”

"Originally, I was just giving ideas and not planning to participate in it myself. Xiao Yao smiled, "But it's rare that you are willing to give me a holiday, and I'm still very happy." ”

"Then I'll go first. Xiao Yao greeted him, pushed open the door of the recording studio and left.

"Xiao Yao!" When Xiao Yao walked to the door of the studio and was about to push the door to leave, a shout came from behind him.

"Cheng Xi, why are you here?" Xiao Yao looked back and found that it was Cheng Xi, and said with some curiosity.

"What do you mean? I can't come to the studio? I'm a contracted artist here. Cheng Xi smiled slightly sideways.

"No, didn't you say that you zoomed in on the fake when you were filming the MV some time ago? Why did you come to the studio on the big weekend? My mother arranged a job for you again?" Xiao Yao said.

"No," Cheng Xi shook his head, "I came here to find you." I called you and no one answered, so I asked Sister Jiaying, and she said that you were recording in the studio, and I happened to be nearby, so I came over. I saw you in the recording studio with Mr. Shen and Boss Xiao just now, so I didn't go in to disturb you, and I waited here. ”

Xiao Yao took out his mobile phone and looked at it, and found that there was indeed Cheng Xi's missed call on it, and looked up and said to Cheng Xi: "I was recording just now, so the phone is on silent." Did you come here on purpose to find me in a hurry?"

"There's nothing urgent, I came to you to invite you to dinner, are you free at night?"

"Dinner?" Xiao Yao smiled, "It's okay to be free, but you suddenly want to invite me to dinner, is there any reason?"

"It's nothing special," Cheng Xi said with a smile, "As for the MV this time, I originally said that it was a free voluntary help, but I didn't expect to get a reward unexpectedly." If you have a windfall, you have to scatter a little bit of it. I haven't been with the dance troupe for a long time, so I thought I'd get everyone together, have a meal, and then find a place to play. First, I owe this windfall to you, and secondly, you are also a member of our Dawn Dance Troupe, and I haven't seen you for a long time, so I want to call you to join us. ”

"Well, I haven't seen you in a long time, so it's good to get together in the evening. Xiao Yao nodded in agreement.

"Okay, then it's almost time now, so let's go. The place has been booked, and everyone will gather directly at the place where they eat in a while. Cheng Xi said, and beckoned Xiao Yao to walk outside the studio together.

"With your current situation, at most you are still famous in the dance troupe, so you shouldn't have participated in their backup dance activities anymore, right?" Xiao Yao chatted with Cheng Xi as he walked, "Looking at you like this, you still have a very close relationship with the people in the dance troupe." ”

"Of course," Cheng Xi said with a smile, "Although I have changed careers now, I am only a nominal member of the dance company, but it is different from a nominal member like you." This dance troupe was originally pulled up by Chen Chen and me, and the relationship with everyone was not so easy to fade down, and I would always practice dance with them when I was fine. It's been months since you've been back from the United States, and you haven't seen yourself in the dance company. ”

"Isn't this a thing?" Xiao Yao said with a wry smile, "Participating in shows, recording albums, and filming MVs are one after another, and I'm still in school." ”

"I'm just saying it so casually," Cheng Xi glanced at Xiao Yao and said, "I know that you have a lot of things to do this day." That's why I came here to pick you up today. Please!"

As they spoke, the two of them had already walked up to a red imported high-end sedan.

"Your car?" Xiao Yao opened the co-pilot's door and sat in, "It seems that your development over the past year has been really good." ”

"I'm also lucky," Cheng Xi also sat in the car, and said while starting the car, "Who would have thought that I, a dancer, could really be picked by Sister Jiaying to be an actor." ”

"That's also the result of your own talent and hard work. Xiao Yao said, "I heard that you were very serious and hard working when you first learned acting with my grandfather. ”

Xiao Yao said a little worriedly: "But for your current situation, the people in the dance troupe really don't mind at all, don't they have any ideas?" After all, you are different from me, when I joined the dance troupe, everyone knew that I was a second-generation star, and soon they also knew that I was an actor. But you were a team, a studio that joined together, and now the gap between you and them is a bit big. ”

"There will definitely be ideas," Cheng Xi said with a smile, "Sister Jiaying also took this into account, and specially told the people in the dance troupe that my situation is not a special case, if other people in the dance troupe can also show the ability to be recognized by the studio in other aspects, the studio will also use the resources of the studio to support me." So there are a lot of envy in the dance troupe, but jealousy and hatred should not be talked about. ”

Cheng Xi sighed: "A boss like Sister Jiaying really doesn't have to say anything. But at the end of the day, I still want to thank you. If I hadn't known you, I don't think I would be where I am today. Maybe I'm still working as a teacher in the gym while looking for work with my brothers and sisters in the dance troupe. ”

"You said that if I made public this period of history when the two of us met, would the bus be full of girls eating ice cream in the future?" Cheng Xi suddenly laughed.

"According to what you said, in fact, you should be most grateful to the muscular man in the gym back then, right?" Xiao Yao smiled, "I remember it seems to be called Xue Gang, right? If he hadn't stopped me and had to find fault with me, I think I would have left after paying you an ice cream at that time, maybe the two of us wouldn't know each other at all." ”

"Oh, yes, you beat him up badly. I took a few days off before coming to work. Cheng Xi said, "At that time, I really didn't expect that you would be so powerful at such a young age." ”

"By the way, in the past, the dance troupe was the two captains of you and Chen Chen. Now that you're flying solo, isn't it Chen Chen who has the final say in the dance troupe now? Can he manage it alone? Especially on the side of you girls who dance modern dance. ”

"Actually, Chen Chen doesn't need to put too much thought into it now. After so many years together, everyone has a very tacit understanding. As for choreography, we don't choreograph ourselves. Before each performance, there is a special choreographer to teach everyone the dance to perform, and everyone just listens to the choreographer, so Chen Chen doesn't have much to do. Cheng Xi said, "And Chen Chen has been stimulated by me, and he is currently actively preparing for transformation." Originally, the professional life of dancers is not long, and dance troupes like ours that specialize in accompanying dancers are even more youthful, and they can't dance for a few years. ”

"Chen Chen also wants to change careers to become an actor?" Xiao Yao said in surprise.

"No, he has no talent for acting, and he has no interest in acting. Cheng Xi said with a smile, "The studio is divided into two parts: the performing arts department and the music department. I changed my career to become an actor, and he wanted to change careers to become a singer. ”

"Chen Chen wants to change careers to become a singer?" Xiao Yao was stunned at first, then shook his head and said, "Don't blame me for speaking straight, as far as his singing level is concerned, I'm afraid my father won't look down on him." ”

"He sings very ordinary, but he doesn't want to be a singer, he wants to be a rapper. Cheng Xi said, "You also know that Chen Chen is the kind of person who plays street culture." Hip-hop, graffiti, and music, he is good at hip-hop rap. Don't forget, you also learned graffiti and rap from him. In fact, I called you out this time to see if you could help him in this regard. ”

"How can I help him?" Xiao Yao said, "Write a song for him?" (To be continued.) )
