Chapter 12: You Can Go Up

Lin Xuan and Shen Lu went out to call Han Ling, and the three of them walked towards the recording studio together.

When he came to the recording studio, Lin Xuan swept his eyes and found that Sun Xuan was also in the recording studio.

At this moment, she was blushing, chattering with a middle-aged man with a beard, and her expression was very excited.

Lin Xuan thought about it for a while, and knew that this person should be Sun Xuan's husband Chang Song.

Seeing Lin Xuan and the three of them coming in, Sun Xuan's gaze shifted, poking at Lin Xuan like a knife, if his gaze could kill, I am afraid that Lin Xuan would have died with ten thousand arrows piercing his heart.

Then she snorted heavily and turned her head.

The bearded middle-aged man stood up, walked in front of the three of them, looked at Lin Xuan from head to toe with a critical gaze, and then said with a smile:

"This is the author of the two songs "Say Scatter" and "Decent", it's really young, I heard that you are still a restaurant owner, you are responsible for cooking, and a chef can also write songs, but it opened my eyes. ”

Lin Xuan smiled indifferently and did not speak.

The hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit.

Lin Xuan snatched the other party's theme song and interlude, and it was normal for the other party to look at him unpleasantly, anyway, the matter of the theme song and interlude had been settled, and the money had also gone into his pocket, as long as the other party was not too excessive, Lin Xuan didn't bother to pay attention to him.

After speaking, Chang Song turned his gaze to Director Shen, and said in a strange manner: "Tsk, Director Shen's vision is really unique, I don't look down on the works of a professional like me, but I fall in love with a song written by a chef." ”

As a director with a certain reputation, Shen Lu's status in the company is not low, but Chang Song, as a well-known producer, has a good status, and he and Shen Lu are one engaged in music and the other in film, and they are not in the same industry, and the other party can't influence him, so he is not afraid of offending the other party.

Shen Lu was quite self-contained, and said calmly: "I don't care if the song is written by a professional or a non-professional, I only look at whether the song is suitable for my movie, so I'm sorry." ”

Chang Song had a hint of gloom in his eyes, and said coldly: "Director Shen has already made a decision, so I won't say more, I hope that these two songs written by this cook can become popular and play a bonus role in the promotion of your movie." ”

The Chinese language is broad and profound, and when he said the words "on fire", Chang Song deliberately accentuated his tone, obviously saying the opposite.

Director Shen Lu didn't want to entangle with each other, he just wanted to record the two songs quickly, and said directly: "Chang Production, can we start?"

"Although Director Shen doesn't use my songs, the production task was given to me by the leaders, and I still have to complete it, so let's start. Chang Song sat in the boss's chair.

After the lyrics and composition were completed, the next most important task was to arrange the music.

When is the arrangement?

To put it bluntly, it is an accompaniment, which is the writing of the voices of those guitars, basses, drums, and other instruments.

To outsiders, arranging music doesn't seem too important, but it's not, arranging is a very important job, and it's more technically difficult than lyrics and composition.

If you write lyrics, anyone can write lyrics.

Anyone can compose music, as long as you can hum a melody, and some singers can't read the music at all, but they can still write songs, and that's the reason.

For example, Zheng Zhihua has a melody and then records it with a tape recorder.

Of course, the composition here is composed in the sense of popular music, called "songwrite", that is, the person who writes the main theme.

The academic composition is called "composer", which is actually equivalent to the arrangement in the sense of pop music.

What can you say about the importance of arrangement?

For example, a song that has just finished writing is like a naked person, while arranging a song is about putting clothes on people, and different clothes can make people show different temperaments.

Similarly, different arrangements can make a song show different emotions and create different atmospheres.

Just like the clothes that everyone wears are not the more expensive the better, the more the better, to match their figure, you are one meter six tall and weigh one hundred and fifteen, and you have to wear a long windbreaker, isn't that looking for death?

It's the same with arrangement, it's not that the more flashy the better, it's not that you add guitar, bass, and orchestral strings to your songs.

Depending on the style of each song, the instrument mix and performance technique should be decided.

Chang Song sat in front of the computer, put aside the paper with the score and lyrics, and glanced at it from time to time.

He didn't start arranging the music directly, but looked at the score and lyrics with a look of disdain on his face.

"This chord is too old-fashioned, isn't it, this melody is not very pleasant, can it move people? What the hell is this lyric? What do you want to express?"

Chang Song crossed Erlang's legs, shaking his legs while commenting on Lin Xuan's works, his words full of malice.

Lin Xuan was a little overwhelmed, and said angrily: "Chang Production, after talking for a long time, you just commented on the work, can you start arranging?"

Chang Song tilted his head and glanced at Lin Xuan, rolled his eyes, and said, "Before arranging the music, you must first know enough about the work, isn't this understanding of the work and preparing for the arrangement?"

Director Shen Lu's face was also not good-looking, and said: "Chang Production, I gave you these two songs two days ago, and it's a little unreasonable for you to study the works now." ”

"How did I know you would pick a song written by a chef, I hadn't read it before. "Tsunematsu said.

Slowly dragging it out, Chang Song satirized Lin Xuan's work from beginning to end before officially starting the arrangement.

The arrangement determines the final presentation style of a song, and generally speaking, any arranger will not bury his or her head in the work, but will always communicate with the songwriter to determine the direction of the arrangement.

After all, songwriters know best what the song is trying to say.

However, Chang Song only communicated with the people around him occasionally, and did not say a word to Lin Xuan at all, and did not consider Lin Xuan's thoughts at all, but just arranged the music according to his ideas.

This was obviously deliberately to make Lin Xuan ugly.

If the other party's arrangement is done well and matches the song very well, Lin Xuan is too lazy to say, as long as the work is finally presented as a good work.

However, Chang Song is obviously perfunctory, a good arrangement should be able to deepen the emotions contained in the song, but he didn't consider the artistic conception of the song and the emotions expressed at all, he just added a few instruments very routinely, and wrote a usable harmony casually, just in the degree of advancement.

Lin Xuan already knew some arrangements, although he couldn't remember most of the details of the arrangements of these two songs, he still knew the general direction.

He couldn't let Chang Song spoil the song so badly, so he frowned and put forward his own suggestion:

"Often made, I think the solo here should be made up like this......"

Chang Song raised his eyelids, glanced at Lin Xuan, snorted, and directly ignored his words.

The anger in Lin Xuan's heart began to pour out.

Next, Lin Xuan endured his anger and put forward two suggestions, saying that Chang Song's arrangement and the mood of the song conflicted.

Who knows, Lin Xuan is not doing much, Chang Song is fried.

He stood up with a hula, pointed at Lin Xuan's nose, and said angrily: "Arrangement is a very professional thing, you don't know how to arrange music at all, what nonsense are you talking about here?"

Lin Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Why, I'm not convinced, if you don't like me to make it up, you can do it yourself, I promise it's okay, you think I want to make it up for you." ”

Chang Song rolled his eyes, sat back in his seat, crossed Erlang's legs, and looked at Lin Xuan fearlessly.

Director Shen Lu said with a calm face:

"Chang Production, although I don't understand music, but I also know that the songwriter has the deepest understanding of the song, and you should listen to the songwriter's opinion when arranging the song.

With your attitude, I don't think we need to work together, I'll find a new producer, and it's a big deal to delay for a few days. ”

The company's famous producers are very busy, and everyone has a lot of work on their hands, and they may have to wait in line to find other producers, but the soundtrack cannot be delayed.

Therefore, Shen Lu knew that after he replaced Chang Song's song, the other party would definitely be dissatisfied, and there would inevitably be bumps in the follow-up cooperation process, but he still pinched his nose and chose to continue to cooperate.

However, Chang Song's current attitude is too much, Shen Lu can't bear it at all, and decides to change the producer even if he delays a little time.

"Hey, you hurry up and change it, I wish you could give it back, make two songs that are destined to hit the streets, and I'm afraid of bringing a stain on my career. Chang Song sneered.

Since Shen Lu replaced his songs, Chang Song was full of upset, if her wife was a singer, he could barely make these two songs, but his wife also tore her face with Shen Lu.

Therefore, he didn't have the intention of continuing to make albums at all, and he didn't resign as producer directly, just to deliberately disgust Shen Lu and Lin Xuan at this moment, and vent the evil anger in his heart.

"You ......" Director Shen was obviously angry, his chest rose and fell, and he turned around and was about to leave to find the producer again.

But at this moment, Lin Xuan's eyes fluctuated, and he suddenly remembered the memory fruit rewarded by the system, and he had the ability to solidify his past memories.

Lin Xuan already has a certain ability to arrange, although he is not very good at it, but as long as he solidifies all the details of a song in his mind, there is no problem in completing the arrangement according to the cat and the tiger.

Thinking of this, Lin Xuan grabbed Director Shen, who was about to leave angrily.

"Boss Lin......" Shen Lu was a little puzzled.

Lin Xuan shook his head at her, walked directly to Chang Song's seat, and reached out to the side to point.

"What?" Chang Song raised his chin and squinted at him.

Lin Xuan pointed to the side again, and said coldly: "Go out of the way, I'll come by myself!"
