Chapter Twenty-Nine: August Restarts
"You should contact Crystal as soon as possible, if it drags on like this......" Sika reminded Cheon Myung-hoon before leaving.
"Okay, I got it. Qian Mingxun sighed and replied helplessly.
He really hadn't seen Krystal since he returned home, and the girl's resentment should have accumulated a lot. But there is nothing Qian Mingxun can do, after all, he has a lot of things to do recently.
His second series is being prepared, and he will also guide Li Zhien to practice. And a few days ago, I signed Hyuna again. If he wasn't going to send the other party abroad first, Qian Mingxun would probably be busy.
After sending off the TJS team, Cheon Myung-hoon plunged into the recording studio again. The nature of his workaholism is also being exposed little by little, and he hardly cares much about other things.
The experience of producing singing and dancing singers, Loen is actually very lacking. Although the acquisition of Nega network, responsible for the girl group Brown Eyed Girls, is responsible for the songwriting. But they are actually affiliated with GAB Entertainment.
GAB Entertainment's masterpiece is the Brown Eye series. Beginning with the original Brown eyes, Naul formed Brown Eyed Soul after the disbandment, unleashing his close black musical style.
Cheon Myung-hoon also prefers R&B, so he knows all about his predecessors in the music scene. It's just that for Asians, Soul is hard to handle. This is determined by racial talent.
Just like Europe and the United States are good at football and basketball, while Asia is good at badminton and table tennis. Asians have never been very accustomed to things that open and close.
The reaction is the same musically. For the treatment of small transposition of R&B, Asians often have impromptu improvisations due to their innate sensitivity to melody.
So after two years abroad, Qian Mingxun also learned a lot. A considerable part of the music works that have become popular in Europe and the United States are written about the singer's personal experience.
The melody lyrics with emotion and a unique voice can conquer the listener without the need for vision.
South Korea's trainee training system focuses more on teamwork than on personality development. Separated by the barrier of language, there are also very different aesthetics. You can imagine how difficult it is to rise in a foreign country!
It's not that Cheon Myung-hoon has no channels, nor is it lacking in talent. Even if you use money to pave the way, there will always be opportunities to develop in Europe and the United States. But he still didn't choose to stay.
Although sticking to your dreams is admirable. But if you go in the opposite direction, you will get twice the result with half the effort, and it is still not a wise move. Cheon Myung-hoon knows where his stage is, and he's sure it's not the right time yet.
Not only Korean music has to be exported to the outside world, but singers from European and American RB must also pass the level of loen if they want to develop in South Korea. If you don't make full use of this kind of treasure, it's too stupid.
And Qian Myung-hoon absorbed too much knowledge, which caused him to have a little indigestion. Before he can completely form his own style, he still has to go through continuous exploration.
He has written classic R&B such as "Love You Even If I Hate" and "Memories and Love Are Similar". I also wrote about brisk K-pop like "Love and War". Even game music like "First kiss" spared no effort to try it.
Cheon Myung-hoon handed over the album to Fang Si-hyuk for production, but in fact, it was also because his attitude was not clear. He wanted to be quietly lyrical but couldn't resist the temptation of dance music, and even the band form couldn't help but want to get involved.
It's obviously impossible to make an album in such a state of refinement. And Fang Shihe's clear attitude and resolute will can't find a problem. Coupled with the expectation of the demo of the title song, Cheon Myung-hoon quickly confirmed the intention of cooperation.
This saved him a lot of time, so he had the energy to make up for his debut record. But in fact, before that, Cheon Myung-hoon also watched Wonder girls.
Because of the removal of personal emotional factors, from the company's formation. He gives JYP's artists far more opportunities to write songs than S.M.
Cheon Myung-hoon has every motivation to help Shao Shi and help SJ. But unfortunately, since he quit S.M, he has lost his position to do that!
The interaction in front of the camera doesn't matter, but when it comes to the title song, it's not like you can just think about it. So even if Qian Mingxun wrote songs for his youth, how to hand them over to them is still a troublesome matter!
August 8, 2008, the same day as the opening of the BJ Olympics. Bigbang has also released their third mini album 'Stand up'.
Cheon Myung-hoon listened to "One Day at a Time" several times, and then sent a congratulatory text message to Kwon Ji-ryong. It's not been a year since the "Lies" trend, and GD has come up with another song that is not inferior.
And compared with "Lies" repeatedly reinforcing memory points, this "One Day at a Time" is more advanced, and the integration of rap and lyricism is also more ingenious.
It's no exaggeration to say that this is a divine comedy in every sense of the word, and it is a song that can create a song that belongs to the BigBang era!
Seeing Bigbang's menacing momentum, it is aimed at one of Lee Hyo-ri's thrones. Also waiting to be fed are the "cult leader" Xu Taizhi and the "sales legend" Jin Modeling.
After a meeting and discussion, Loen decided to postpone Lee Ji-eun's debut appropriately. After all, if you fight hard with such a general trend, even Qian Mingxun may not be able to take advantage.
Even if we take our eyes off the main battlefield of the battle, S.M's rookie boy group SHINee is also gaining momentum.
This is their first full-length album, and just like Girls' Generation's self-titled album, S.M's investment and publicity will be the greatest.
South Korea's market capacity is pitiful, and Cheon Myung-hoon, who is backed by Loen, knows it all too well. collided with the newcomers strongly promoted by the Big Three, and Loen would be very passive no matter how rich he was.
Although he is not familiar with the five SHINee, out of recognition of the quality of S.M trainees, Cheon Myung-hoon still agrees to take the initiative to avoid it. No matter how high-spirited he is, he has to take care of Li Zhien's gaming experience!
Thanks to the full recovery of the song and ballad industry, the topic of Qian Myungxun's eye-catching in "Night Heart" has gradually been suppressed by a succession of new reports.
There are more skeptical people on the Internet, but they can't say what the benefits will be for Qian Mingxun if it is hype? After all, making up such a bizarre story can still be logically justified.
The difficulty behind this is much more difficult than spreading a scandal and clarifying it. Moreover, Cheon Myung-hoon has returned after two years, and the attention of the people is already very high. It's redundant to hype it up.
Even Ko Yunhe, who was about to start his activities, had to practice responding to such questions. After all, as Qian Mingxun's close relative, the reporter will definitely not let her go easily.
But this turmoil also added a touch of melancholy to Qian Myungxun's image. Before that, he has always been the representative of the dream-chasing teenager, and he is the most sunny and positive.
So a TV series that is in preparation also sent an invitation to Qian Mingxun to appear. The conditions offered were very tempting, almost to the point of being responsive.
