Chapter 172: What a sad story!

"It's been a sad morning!" Li Qian sighed. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Liao Liao smiled, reached out and gently slapped him.

Several people stood on the steps in front of the door, watching the three cars drive out of the villa, and then watching the gate slowly close, and then they all turned and walked back.

"Millie Fell's song for you is good. Xie Mingyuan said seriously.

Liao Liao nodded, and Li Qian also nodded.

But when she left, she was very unwilling. Xie Mingyuan said again.

Liao Liao laughed, and Li Qian shrugged his shoulders.

Yes, it was a sad morning, and after nearly a day's flight, I finally landed, unable to sleep, unable to hold my wife and kiss her, and was forced to play the piano and sing to others, and to sing and cry to a girl—crying so much that she remembered her grandmother.

The old lady who took care of her since she was a child, bought her her first musical instrument, the harmonica, liked to smoke, liked to speak German, but was forced to speak English with a very inaccurate Texas accent.

As a result, no one mentioned any more competitions and no competitions, and no matter how much Millie Fil scratched her heart, it was impossible for her to mention a second song when her best friend was sad to be like that.

So, after a lot of crying, Jon and Millie volunteered to take Selina home, but in the end, Serena drove herself, and the three of them came together and left together.

At noon, everyone had lunch together, and after lunch, Liao Min was in great spirits, Sun Meimei took her out to visit Los Angeles, especially Hollywood, Xie Mingyuan is fluent in English and French, and he has some good friends here in Los Angeles, so he borrowed a car and decided to go out for a while.

In fact, it is equivalent to saying that everyone tacitly left time and space to Li Qian and Liao Liao.

Although this villa is big enough and there are enough rooms, it is ...... It's better to be two.

The next day, everyone was going to have their own games, but Millie Fell and Selena Donn were so careless on the phone that after a hurried lunch, Li Qian and Liao Liao had to hurry back to the villa and talk about Eastern and Western music with the two American girls until the evening.

On the third day after coming to the United States, Li Qian and Xie Mingyuan were finally about to start work.

After all, the two of them still have a heavy responsibility on this trip.

In a listening room, Liao Liao gave each of them a printed song page paper and a pen for each person.

It is said that there are a total of 26 songs, of course, all of them are in English, but at the moment there are still only small samples, some with a little simple accompaniment, such as guitar, piano, or simple tambourine, and some are simply only vocals without accompaniment.

Li Qian and Xie Mingyuan's task is to listen to twenty-six songs in one go, and choose eight to ten alternatives from them, and in the end, there will be about two or three of these eight to ten songs, which will finally be selected for Liao Liao's new album.

Rolling Stone believes that Liao Liao's insistence on putting four Chinese songs on the album has a huge impact on the global sales of the album, and they believe that listeners from so many countries around the world buy English songs to listen to English songs, and they can't understand Chinese, so for these fans, six English works, and ten English works, of course, there will be a huge gap in the attraction of fans.

Therefore, they once asked to restart the relevant contract negotiations, hoping that China's Minghu culture can give up placing Chinese songs in such a global album, and instead sell an all-English album to sell the world, and then publish an album of Chinese works to sell the Chinese cultural circle.

However, before the matter could reach Li Qian's ears, Liao Liao and Sun Meimei directly vetoed it - if you think this model is not good, we can terminate the contract peacefully at any time!

Liao Liao and Sun Meimei's tough attitude scared the Rolling Stones!

Although the family is big, but the sales and influence are strong enough for a singer of Liao Liao's level, for Rolling Stone, it will never be willing to give up!

And the worst thing is that Liao Liao's contract only has one album left!

If the relationship is not handled well, after the release of this album, Liao Liao can freely sign with any record company at any time - Liao, who has won the title of "Oriental Goddess" in Western society, will there be any record company that is not greedy?

Therefore, Rolling Stone quickly said: no problem, continue four Chinese songs, six English songs!

In fact, it is difficult for them to understand that this is not Liao Liao and Li Qian, they want to be lazy, and it is not that they can't make a Chinese and an English album at the same time and sell it separately, but in Li Qian's view, it is necessary to pass on some Chinese culture through Liao Liao's voice and influence, and in Liao Liao's view, keeping a small half of his Chinese works in his global album, in addition to completing Li Qian's obsession with promoting national culture, the most important thing is to remind yourself at all times, don't forget your roots!

As a result, her new album, the initial plan is still six English songs.

Of course, the maximum CD capacity of an album can actually hold twelve, or even thirteen or fourteen songs, so if there are really a lot of good songs, there is no problem with one or two more songs.

…………

Liao Liao's singing voice came from the sound speakers.

Although it's just a sample, the recording is still quite exquisite.

Liao Liao sat next to Li Qian, Li Qian was Xie Mingyuan, and in the back row, Liao Min and Sun Meimei were sitting pretending.

After each song was played, Li Qian and Xie Mingyuan picked up the pen and made marks on the song page in their hands.

This listening was more than an hour, and a CD was changed in the middle, and when the playback was over, Sun Meimei went over to open the curtains, and Liao Liao's eyes were already looking back and forth on Li Qian and Xie Mingyuan.

Among the group of people she can trust the most, when it comes to musical ability, these two people are clearly the best among them.

Xie Ming has been a violin master for many years, and has been at the helm of Sony Records for many years, and has a deep understanding and unique insights into global pop music, and his own musical ability and commercial vision should not be underestimated.

And Li Qian ...... Well, needless to say.

At this time, the two of them were slowly turning back to their song pages, as if they were recalling the rhythm and melody of the song one by one as they flipped it.

Xie Mingyuan was the first to turn back to the first page, raised his head, and said, "The first song feels more ordinary. ”

Li Qian didn't speak, continued to turn slowly, and finally turned back to the first page, he nodded, "Well, cut this one!"

Then it was Xie Mingyuan, "The second song, this rural style, I don't think it's very suitable for Liao Liao." ”

Li Qian thought for a moment and nodded, "Yes, cut it too." ”

Liao Liao was still full of expectations, but when he heard this, he sighed helplessly.

Sun Meimei hid in the back row and snickered.

Li Qian looked over and asked with a smile, "You wrote it?"

Liao Liao nodded.

Xie Mingyuan smiled, "It's too blunt!"

…………

Commenting back and forth, one by one, if there is uncertainty, hesitation, or disagreement between the two people, listen to it again and discuss its advantages and disadvantages with each other.

The two of them cut the song in a big way, and Sun Meimei felt a little distressed - many of these works are actually specially collected by the record company, and some are specially given by friends who know in the circle, you say it's almost good, or you say it's a sincere friendship, in short, it's not something that you simply pay for to buy, here, it's all about human affection!

However, if you say it, you will die.

But on second thought, it's inevitable.

After all, an album has only six English songs, and it has expanded to seven or eight songs, and Li Qian's works will inevitably occupy half, or even more-as soon as he comes out, it is a work like yesterday, and you can hear that the two American divas are crying and admitting defeat one by one, whether it is Liao Liao or Sun Meimei, in fact, I wish the whole album was handled by Li Qian!

The point is, there is a circle everywhere, and if you want to mix like a fish in water in the circle, then you have to go out and make friends!

In contrast, I have to say that Millie Phil is worthy of being a new generation of divas who has stood out in the European and American music scene in recent years, and her creative ability is indeed quite outstanding!

Jon's guy also has a work that has been highly praised by Xie Mingyuan and Li Qian, but it's just ...... The style and color of that song are a little gray, and they are really not suitable for Liao Liao.

Not to mention that Liao Liao created a healthy and sunny image in the last album, simply saying that she currently represents the face of the Chinese music scene in the world, and such a gloomy work is not suitable.

Of course, the song is really good!

In the end, twenty-six songs were discussed, and in the small book recorded by Liao Liao, there was only one work that Xie Mingyuan and Li Qian unanimously confirmed to be absolutely usable, and there were as many as six songs in reserve, and the rest, including Jon Bridges's amazing work, were all killed.

Liao Liao's face was loveless.

Looking at her expression, you can see that her own works, which were anonymously stuffed into these twenty-six songs, must have been all killed.

This is certainly a sad thing!

…………

On the same day, in the evening, in a mansion in Los Angeles.

A private party party.

When Jon Bridges was holding a wine glass in his hand, and there was a vivid description of that morning, the lover of the oriental goddess Liao, Qianqian, playing the piano and singing a song that made Serena Towne cry directly, a middle-aged man gathered around to listen to the story showed a thoughtful look.

When the story was finished, the man walked over, put his arm around Jon's shoulders, walked to a place where there were relatively few people, and asked, "Hey, Joe, is the Qian you are talking about the same Qian who made the soundtrack for Titanic?"

There were stories and wine, and there was always an audience next to him, and Jon was already a little drunk, and immediately said, "Yes, it's him!

The man nodded and said with a smile: "Can you introduce me to you another day?" You know, the matter in my hands, I think it would be a good result if the Mr. Qian you mentioned could take over it. ”

Jon was stunned for a moment before he reacted, "Oh my gosh! Disney ......"

The man patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Believe me, that film will definitely move him! My friend, introduce him to me!"
