Chapter 48: A Red Cloth and the Flower Girl
Liu Jingxin had just said goodbye to Tong Wenxuan and was about to return to his residence to rest, but suddenly received a call from Xu Yuanda.
Xu Yuanda asked Liu Jingxin if he had time to go to their company in the afternoon, saying that the cover of "Together Forever" has been designed in three versions, and the design of the MV has already had a preliminary plan.
Anyway, Tong Wenxuan's wish has been fulfilled, Liu Jingxin thought that there was nothing to do in the afternoon, so he happily agreed.
When he came to Shuangyin Mansion again, the young lady at the front desk of Ding Shiyuan recognized Liu Jingxin at a glance and enthusiastically introduced him into a larger conference room.
Not long after, Xu Yuanda brought two subordinates, a man and a woman, to the conference room, and Xu Yuanda enthusiastically introduced his two subordinates to Liu Jingxin.
The man's name is Shi Yuan, who is mainly responsible for the work of the MV shooting part, and the woman's name is Jiang Tao, who is mainly responsible for the graphic design part.
Both of them have listened to the song "Together Forever" composed by Liu Jingxin, and both expressed their love for this song, and said that they would not get tired of listening to the single replay of this song.
An original work is equivalent to a child of the original creator, Liu Jingxin heard the other party praise his "child" so much, no matter whether the other party likes it from the bottom of his heart or has business expression habits, he still has to express his gratitude.
After a few polite rounds, they got to the point.
Jiang Tao first used PPT to show Liu Jingxin the three cover sketches she designed, which are three completely different styles, including the traditional style of the big red hijab, the European style of the church and wedding dress, and the aesthetic style of the beach and flower petals.
Because Liu Jingxin mentioned before that he wanted the audience to pay more attention to the essence of the music, and tried not to let the audience divide their attention to other aspects, he asked not to use real people in the cover design, so these three covers belong to the hand-painted style.
Liu Jingxin has seen three sketches, and after listening to Jiang Tao's story, he feels that each design plan is very good, and it is obvious that Jiang Tao is really very attentive.
But the next problem is that Liu Jingxin is very satisfied with the three cover sketches, but he can't make a choice. But it doesn't matter, isn't there other people in the band, and it makes sense for everyone to discuss and decide this kind of thing.
Thinking so, Liu Jingxin took photos of the three cover sketches and sent them to the band's group, mobilizing everyone to vote for them.
As a result, the entanglement of one person turns into a phobia of choice for four people.
Except for Fang Zhichao, who offered not to participate in the discussion, the other three people discussed the air in the group for a long time, and did not discuss a result for a while.
Liu Jingxin is anxiously waiting for the result here, a few guys over there have actually pulled from the choice of cover style to the skyrocketing housing prices, and they are blaming real estate developers for not being able to find a wife now, they are in a hurry.
Just when Liu Jingxin decided to choose one of the generals, a new member suddenly joined the WeChat group, and it turned out to be Zhang Xun.
Zhang Xun only said one sentence after joining the group, and then quit the group chat.
What he said was: a red cloth was placed on the head of the girl in the flower room.
This sentence contains two very classic songs by Cui Jian, namely "A Red Cloth" and "The Girl in the Flower House".
Zhang Xun's sudden entry into the group and his sudden withdrawal from the group made everyone a little confused, which immediately aroused Jiang Li's dissatisfaction, and directly turned on the broken thought mode.
Da Yang hurriedly explained, saying that he had just sent three cover sketches to Zhang Xun and asked him to help him come up with ideas, and he also wanted to take this opportunity to pull Zhang Xun into the group. Who knew that this guy would play such a play, it really makes people wonder what he was thinking.
Liu Jingxin pondered Zhang Xun's sentence carefully and roughly guessed Zhang Xun's thoughts.
It seems that Zhang Xun hopes to use this cover to pay tribute to Cui Jian, a pioneer in the domestic rock circle, which is a really good idea.
After thinking silently for a while, Liu Jingxin put away his mobile phone, didn't bother to look at the three brothers' discussion full of resentment Zhang Xun, and said to Jiang Tao with a smile: "We almost discussed the results, and decided to integrate the two cover sketches, and the core idea is 'a piece of red cloth on the head of the girl in the flower room'." ”
Jiang Tao's eyes lit up after listening to Liu Jingxin's words, and he gave a thumbs up and said: "This idea is very good, I will revise it when I go back, and it is expected that the new cover sketch will be sent to your mailbox as soon as tomorrow night." ”
The cover matter is solved, and the next thing to discuss is the design idea of the MV.
The shooting of the MV is much more complicated than the cover design, and there are many steps that need to be taken before the official start of shooting, the most important of which is the storyboard.
And it is the text outline that directs the filming of the storyboard.
Liu Jingxin is not good at this kind of work, he thinks that professional things should be left to professional people to do, and their band can just cooperate with the shooting.
According to Shi Yuan's proposal, the band members need to complete the filming of three scenes, respectively in the sea of flowers, in the downtown and at the wedding scene, according to the core idea of this song, these three scenes correspond to the three key time points in the relationship: confession, marriage proposal and marriage.
In the MV, the band is not the protagonist, but the witness, and the real protagonist needs to choose two actors, a man and a woman. If Liu Jingxin or a member of the band is willing to be the leading actor in the MV, it can also be considered. After all, compared to film shooting, the shooting of most MVs is relatively simple, and the requirements for actors are not so high. It's just that the audition needs to be held after the director is confirmed, which is more time-delayed.
Liu Jingxin didn't want to be the leading actor in the MV, at least not yet, and no one else in the band had the time and energy.
Next, Liu Jingxin only needs to gather the band to cooperate with the shooting of the three scenes during the official filming of the MV, and there is really not much else to worry about.
After this afternoon's discussion, Liu Jingxin really felt how difficult it is to make an album, he is just a song, and the normal studio album is less than eight or nine, and more than a dozen, which is no wonder that many celebrities have been said to be highly productive after only one album a year.
When Liu Jingxin left from Shuangyin Building, it was almost time to go to work. He didn't bother to eat dinner, so he hurried to the café.
As soon as he walked into the café, Liu Jingxin saw Luo Sihui greet him with a nervous expression.
"What's wrong?" asked Liu Jingxin.
Luo Sihui didn't speak, only secretly pointed in a direction behind her.
Liu Jingxin looked up suspiciously and looked in the direction of Luo Sihui's finger, and suddenly felt a sigh in his heart.
He actually saw Xiao Shiyu!
That's right! It's the great god who likes to praise Liu Jingxin when he sings!
Why is she here again?
