, Zhang Weishen is hanging, his eyes are closed as if he has fallen asleep, and then he writes a song?"

"Otherwise, people can be popular, this is what capable people can't. ”

"You two be quiet, I'm recording a video. ”

As employees of the entertainment company, they have also seen the scene of the singer's creation, which is not fiddling with a musical instrument for a long time to write a little score, who has ever seen Zhang Wei like this, closed his eyes and completed the melody in his mind, and wrote it immediately, without using a musical instrument to try.

At this moment, Zhang Wei had already taken a new piece of A4 paper and began to try to write words.

About six or seven meters away from him were several executives of Qicheng Entertainment Company, one of whom asked the director of the company's music creation: "Lao Zheng, do you think Zhang Wei has written similar songs before, how can he be engaged in creation like this?"

"Hehe......" Lao Zheng pursed his lips and said: "Who knows, people are known as the creative geniuses of the new generation in the music world, maybe they have their own set." But if you want me to say that when writing a song, you should get the words out first, otherwise in order to cater to the song, the lyrics will inevitably be limited, and you may not be able to make any good songs. ”

A person standing beside Mr. Fang immediately said when he heard this: "Lao Zheng, what you said is a bit absolute, I know that people from your academy like to write the lyrics first, but don't you think this also limits the melody creation of the song? In order to rhyme, the song is not so smooth after all, so it is simpler to determine the melody first, and then consider the lyrics after being catchy." ”

"Teacher Zhang, what are you talking about......"

Lao Zheng didn't agree with this, and immediately prepared to refute it, but was interrupted by Mr. Fang and said: "Ouch, the two of you are endless, you have to fight about the lyrics and songs, what is there to fight about, if you want me to say, as long as it is written and sung with a high degree of popularity, it is a good song, what words before the song and the song before the words are nonsense, good works are the king, don't fight, take a good look at Zhang Wei's creation." ”

As the boss of the company, Mr. Fang's words still carry a lot of weight, and Lao Zheng and Mr. Zhang no longer argue about this matter, but looking at the expressions of the two, they are still a little unconvinced.

Some musicians value the creation of songs, believing that the beautiful melody is the soul of a song, and the lyrics are just to interpret the artistic conception contained in the melody to the greatest extent. However, some musicians believe that the core of a song is the lyrics, because the literal expression is easy to understand and accurate, and the song should create the mood that the lyrics want to express. Regarding the question of the order of the lyrics and songs, both sides of the dispute insist on their own words, and both believe that they are correct, and no one can convince anyone. In fact, from an objective point of view, there is no difference between the lyrics and the music of a song, which is as boring as arguing whether men or women are important in today's society.

Generally speaking, some musicians like to finish the tune first, because good lyrics are rare, but literary things seem to be easier to control, but the tune is different, sometimes some melodies are the product of a flash of inspiration, such as "Yesterday", which was named one of the "500 greatest songs in history" by "Rolling Stone" magazine. A melody in McCartney's dream, which was later re-composed several times, became the very popular "Yesterd."

ay》。 But there are no absolutes, and some songs are good, such as "Imagine" by John Lennon, who is also a member of The Beatles, and this song is also one of the "500 Greatest Songs of All Time" by Rolling Stone magazine, ranking higher than "Yesterday". Therefore, there is no need for a dispute between lyrics and songs, the key is to depend on your own creative preferences and preferences.

I remember that a long time ago, the literati debated "it is easy to know and it is difficult to do" and "it is easy to know and do easy", and later in the Ming Dynasty, Wang Yangming painstakingly said the argument of "the unity of knowledge and action", so that this kind of controversy has stopped a lot, in fact, sometimes similar arguments are meaningless at all, on the issue of "knowledge and action", the combination of theory and practice is the king. And this set of theories is applied to the problem of "lyrics and songs", and the two should be combined and complement each other, and the criterion for testing the success of a song is the feedback of the market and word-of-mouth.

Zhang Wei didn't know about other people's arguments, he searched his stomach and scraped his stomach to write and draw on the paper, wrote and scrapped more than ten pieces of paper, and finally came up with a lyric that he was satisfied with, and then stacked the music score and lyrics together, and walked towards Mr. Fang and others.

"Mr. Zhang, are you done creating?" Mr. Fang saw Zhang Wei coming over and immediately greeted him with a smile.

Zhang Wei nodded and said, "Well, after writing, please help me find a room with a piano, and I will play and sing it myself to see how it works." ”

"Okay, it's ready for you, you come with me. Mr. Fang diligently led the way in front of him.

Coming to a practice room, Zhang Wei sat directly in front of a piano, played a few notes simply, and then the whole person relaxed, his hands began to stroke the keys, a melodious and far-reaching piece was played, after the prelude talked, Zhang Wei sang softly:

The fine glaze of bone china bears the elegance of wind and snow

The bronze cloud ornament depicts thousands of mountains and rivers

It was a drizzle in Yangzhou in March

The most beautiful is the cold plum and the snow

The golden heart and jade run a touch of treasure light, and the afterglow flickered

Thousands of ways to draw colorful curves

I remember the moment I first saw it, and I was amazing

The dynasty changes, and the beauty remains the same

Throw yourself into the flames of the sea

Ambilight shines brightly

Extravagance comes from the fire of burning

Only then did it create a classic

…………

…………

After singing a song, Mr. Fang and the others, who were qualified to enter this room to listen, were stunned, although their company is only a small company in the record industry, it still has the professionalism it should have, so they can't believe that such a song that is bound to be a big hit was actually created by Zhang Wei in just two hours.

Lao Zheng, the music director of ......the academy, first came back to his senses and began to applaud vigorously, and his applause also woke up several other people, and they all began to applaud from the bottom of their hearts, and Mr. Fang applauded the hardest among several people, because he just remembered Zhang Wei's promise to him, no matter whether he wins or loses, this song will be sold to their company at the market price, which makes his heart

It's hot.

There is no need for the next competition, because several people in the room know the level of "porridge", although she is also a good original singer, but she does not have the possibility of comparing with Zhang Wei at all.

After "Porridge", who was still racking his brains to compose music, was called, he didn't have to listen to Zhang Wei's playing and singing, but just watched the lyrics and songs carefully, and he knew that he had lost in this competition, and he was convinced to lose. Her family knows her own affairs, and she knows very well that she will never be able to create such a work at her own level, so although the time agreed by the two parties has not arrived, she also feels that there is no need to insist on it, which is self-inflicted.

Seeing that "Porridge" admitted defeat, Zhang Wei politely invited Mr. Fang and the others out, and after only he, Li Mo, and "Porridge" were left in the room, he said calmly: "Do you know? If I have time every day, I still insist on reading books to learn and recharge, because I know the truth that 'there are people outside the sky'." You don't like to hear what I'm going to say next, but I still have to tell you that even people like me have to constantly improve their business level through learning, and what capital do you have to slack. You should also know what the situation is in today's Chinese music scene, and I look forward to more singer-songwriters appearing to enrich our Chinese music, such as you, but first of all, you have to correct your attitude and don't feel complacent about your little achievement. I won't say much else, I hope that from today to the beginning of the concert, you can learn from the vocal teachers and arrangers and correct your own problems, I believe you will definitely be able to go further on the road of music, instead of becoming a singer who only knows how to create but sings out of tune, then I'm so sorry for the fans who bought tickets to listen to you sing. ”

Zhang Wei's words were not only straightforward, but also very serious, but "porridge" listened to it, not only because Zhang Wei was better than her in songwriting, but because Zhang Wei's unpleasant words were indeed for her consideration, so she solemnly assured Zhang Wei that in the next few days, she would definitely study humbly and strive to improve herself in singing.

Before leaving, Mr. Fang euphemistically reminded Zhang Wei of the promise he had given him, about the purchase of this "Cloisonné", Zhang Wei did not regret it, let Mr. Fang contact Zhang Shilan directly, and he will hand over the manuscript of the song to the studio for processing. In this regard, Mr. Fang also expressed his understanding, although Zhang Wei is the boss of the studio, the rules of the industry still have to be followed, and the singer's creation belongs to the studio or company, so it is in line with the industry rules to negotiate the purchase with the studio.

But Zhang Wei never expected that after he returned to the studio and told Zhang Shilan about it, Zhang Shilan's face suddenly turned cloudy, and after listening to Zhang Wei singing "Cloisonné" in the practice room, he silently drove the staff present out of the practice room, and after locking the door, the monstrous anger instantly drowned Zhang Wei.

Zhang Shilan glared at her eyes and shouted loudly: "Zhang Wei, I found out that you are really a loser! Such a good song, it will definitely be a popular song, even if you don't want to sing it, won't you give it to other artists in our studio? You actually promised the surnamed Fang to sell this song to him? You tell me if you are stupid? You are funny with your brain? Do you know that if this song is handed over to the studio, it will definitely be a newcomer in our studio who will become popular? Do you know how difficult it is to cultivate a newcomer who can stand out? Do you know how much benefit a newcomer can bring to the studio? Selling this song at the market price is 800,000 yuan at most, but how many 800,000 yuan can a newcomer get if he becomes popular, you have to be angry with me! No, you call the person surnamed Fang and say that this song is not for sale, and you will hit it immediately!"
