Not long after hanging up Meng Jianming's phone, Liu Huan called Zhang Wei and gave him an address, near Wufang Bridge, and asked him to rush over.

Zhang Wei drove to Wufang Bridge, found a place according to the address, and found that this was a recording studio, after entering, the girl at the front desk stood up and asked him who he was looking for, a middle-aged man came over and asked him if he was Zhang Wei, and then took him to a recording room in the recording studio, as soon as he entered the door Zhang Wei saw Liu Huan, Shanbao two teachers, and a tuner, there was a band composed of more than a dozen people playing in the recording room, Zhang Wei probably glanced at it, and found that everyone was playing musical instruments, these instruments include piano, electronic organ, Violin, Tao Xun, shakuhachi, flute, guitar, electric guitar, drum kit, tambourine, drum, etc., all look like a small orchestra.

When Zhang Wei entered the door, Liu Huan and Shanbao were both wearing headphones and listening intently to the performance inside, and after two minutes, Shanbao suddenly opened his eyes and stopped, and used the microphone of the console to correct some coordination problems with the band inside, only to find that Zhang Wei had arrived.

"Take a break. Shanbao gave an order, and the bands in the recording room took off their headphones and fished out of it.

Zhang Wei was pulled into a reception room by Shanbao and Liu Huan.

The three of them sat down, the staff brought tea, and Shan Bao said: "Boy, you can, I didn't expect your attainments in Western classical music creation to be so high, I haven't seen such magnificent music in China for at least seven or eight years, this is really what you wrote in half a day?"

Zhang Wei was a little embarrassed and said, "Of course not, this was created before, and I will use it this time." ”

"I said. Shanbao's face was stunned, and then he said to Liu Huan: "Are you or me?"

Liu Huan raised his hand and motioned for Shanbao to continue.

Shan Bao immediately said: "Zhang Wei, these three pieces of yours can be said to be excellent works, if you can use the symphony orchestra to play, you will definitely be able to produce a very good effect, but you are using it to participate in the competition, then you have to make a trade-off, so in terms of arrangement, I suggest that it is better to be simple, otherwise there will be a situation where the melody suppresses the singing." Especially for such a majestic music as "The Battle of the Deer", if you use pop singing, it will definitely not work, and it is almost the same as bel canto singing, but if you sing with bel canto, let's not say whether you will or not, at least it is not suitable for this show, so I suggest that the use of strings and wind music be cut in terms of arrangement, and try to use simple instruments to turn the atmosphere into desolate and long-lasting, what do you think?"

Although Zhang Wei has the inheritance of the elf clan, if you really want to talk about musical literacy and actual arrangement, he is not a little worse than a music producer like Shanbao, so he can play a big knife in front of Guan Gong, so he can only nod and say yes.

"Then the second problem is lyric writing, in this regard, Mr. Liu Huan and I can provide you with some ideas, but I suggest you to come to the final creation. Let's talk about "The Battle of the Deer" first, listen to the name of this song and know that it describes the ancient Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor and Jiuli Chiyou's war, now there are two directions, one is to write bigger, through the macro perspective to describe the picture of an era, there are a few keywords you can consider, Hetu Luoshu, Suiren fire, Shennong tastes a hundred herbs, Cangjie makes words, legend, Wangu, Shenzhou, tribe, chasing deer, Yanhuang, conquest, Daze, Eight wilderness and so on such a relatively large word;There is also a small write,Through a micro perspective to show a war,This is relatively simple,The keywords can be specific to a certain year,General,Hero、Glory、Hometown、Broken sword、Residual blood、Battle flag、Wasteland and so on。 It's up to you how you choose. ”

"There is also a song "Moon Sacrifice" ("Artemis Light" after the renaming), this song is a bit like the Divine Comedy of Western religions, a bit reluctant to use pop singing, you can highlight the ethereal feeling in it, and there are two directions in terms of arrangement, one is the style of Western music, and the other is the Chinese classical style, such as the Western classic song "Scarborough Bazaar" and our national classic song "Farewell", which depends on your personal preference. ”

Shanbao is worthy of being the top music producer in China, and gave Zhang Wei some directional suggestions. The three of them discussed in the room for more than an hour, and only went to eat at the urging of the assistant, and the two teachers at the dinner table gave Zhang Wei a lot of very good suggestions on the adaptation and lyrics of the two songs, and Liu Huan even helped Zhang Wei write a few paragraphs.

After eating, Zhang Wei and Liu Huan returned to the Media Hotel together, and the two went straight to the training room rented by Zhang Wei. After Liu Huan stayed in the training room for half an hour, he left the training room, Zhang Wei was not alone under his command, there was also Qin Mengmeng, even if he valued Zhang Wei, he couldn't be too partial.

Zhang Wei continued to ponder the lyrics and songs of the three songs alone, combined with the opinions given by the two teachers, so that Zhang Wei had many new ideas, wrote and changed, and sang a word with an instrument from time to time to feel whether it was a good fit, so the afternoon passed unconsciously.

In the evening, Zhang Shilan came over, and after seeing Zhang Wei, the first thing he did was to ask Zhang Wei how the contact between his relatives and friends was, Zhang Wei realized that he had forgotten the things that the program team had explained on the first day, and hurriedly called his parents and asked Zhang Shilan to book air tickets for the second elder on the Internet and pick them up in Beijing. On the other hand, Zhang Wei also hurriedly called a few good brothers in the dormitory and invited them to participate in the recording of the semi-finals.

In the next few days, Zhang Wei continued to complete his three works on the one hand, and on the other hand, he had to cooperate with his mentor with some shooting tasks arranged by the program, such as visiting Mr. Liu Huan's friends, listening to the opinions and guidance of his predecessors, etc.

Unconsciously, a week passed quietly, and Zhang Wei's works were also approaching perfection with the help of Liu Huan and Shanbao. At the suggestion of Mr. Liu Huan, the song used by Zhang Wei in the semi-finals was his original "I Wish to Be Wind".

On the day of the New Year, every household was busy sacrificing stoves and sweeping the dust, but the contestants and relatives and friends who participated in "Huaxia New Singing" had no time to take care of this traditional custom, because today was the day of the eight-in-four competition, and the relatives and friends of the eight contestants had been ready under the arrangement of the program team the night before. At nine o'clock the next morning, the semi-finals of "New Songs of China" officially kicked off.

"New Songs of China" The audition was carried out in four major cities across the country, there were more than 100,000 people who signed up, and one of the 100 players who participated in the preliminary round was selected, and 80% of the preliminary round was eliminated again, and only 28 people were divided into the four mentor teams, after a round of cruel competition, the top eight were selected, these eight people can stand out from the hundreds of thousands of players, it is already one in a million, aside from what shady and transactions, everyone also has absolutely outstanding features and their own unique skills, so the battle of the top eight will become a new round of eliminators. In such a situation, every contestant tried their best to fight for the 50% opportunity, the pressure is self-evident, and even Zhang Wei, who has always been relaxed and complacent, will inevitably feel a little nervous when the countdown to the show is underway.

With the host on stage, the semi-finals officially kicked off, eight players came to the stage to draw lots, eight numbers from one to eight to determine the order of appearance, Zhang Wei's luck was good, and he won the sixth, this order of appearance is slightly more lip-synching, neither the tension of the first place, nor the pressure of the last place, it is a good position.

Similar shows are often seen on TV, and singers are always reluctant to be the first to appear, not only because they will be nervous when they are the first to appear, but also because there is an objective factor, that is, often when the first person appears, the audience and judges have not yet entered the state, which is why the first show of the performance is called a warm-up. The finale of the last place will face a lot of pressure, although it is the easiest to be remembered by the audience, but if the players who have appeared in front of them perform very well, it will cause strong psychological pressure and is very prone to performance mistakes, which is why the finale of large-scale galas often chooses big stars with great performance experience.

The show began, and the first one to take the stage was Liu Xiang, the song he chose was to adapt the original song, in fact, it was risky to choose to adapt the original song, because often the original song has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the preconceived ideas of the Chinese people are very strong. I think Liu Xiang's mentor and he himself also understand this, so they only changed the rhythm slightly, and only changed some minor parts in the melody, so as to minimize the risk.

There were no major problems with Liu Xiang's performance, but the nervousness of the first appearance still made him play a little flawed, but on the whole, it was complete.

When the fifth contestant Liu Lianxin appeared, Zhang Wei began to prepare for the stage in the background, there were only three original people in tonight's performance, Qin Mengmeng, who originally claimed to be original, did not choose her own original song today, but chose an adapted song, because in seven days, she only made an original song, she said that the time was too tight when she cooperated with the program team to shoot, although she wrote three songs, but the other two were still flawed from her standards, so she didn't plan to sing, only carefully prepared a song that she planned to sing after the promotion, when the reporter (arranged by the program team) asked her why she was sure that she could be promoted, Qin Mengmeng said very confidently, because she is very confident in the two songs she has adapted, she will definitely be able to give everyone a different feeling.

At that time, after the reporter saw Qin Mengmeng's self-confidence, he asked Zhang Wei, who was sitting on the side, what he thought of Qin Mengmeng's self-confidence, Zhang Wei responded according to the lines, Qin Mengmeng is indeed very talented in music, and there is great hope for promotion. But in my heart, I thought evilly, looking at Qin Mengmeng's confused self-confidence, it is estimated that the godfather surnamed Meng is not less active behind the scenes.
