Let's make an album....

These words hit Li Yu's sore spot.

Legend has it that the band has never released an album since its inception. I wrote a lot of songs, and some of them were used to make an album, but they were never officially released.

Whether it's the record era in the past, or now in the era of online digital albums, the band's songs are used for their own amusement, and they have been heard by bar guests and underground rock singers alike.

That is, it has only been "issued" on a small scale.

Now that Liu Pian is going to make an album, judging from the sales of his last platinum-level album, Li Yuchai can also guess that this kid must want to release it on all platforms.

In fact, it is not difficult to issue on all platforms now, but it is difficult to sell.

It's like the Internet, you write casually, you upload casually, you put it on the shelves casually, but there is no popularity, the platform doesn't give you recommendations, and how many people can see and hear it?

Ye Wenxuan's "Medal" cost more than one million publicity expenses, and this million was exchanged for the portal recommendations of some popular apps, the "big seal push" of some music platforms, and so on.

Now that my band is going to make an album, can I come up with the money to promote it? When the time comes, most of them can only silently put it on the shelves, and then silently watch the sales rise drop by drop.

In other words, there can be a single like "Love When You Die" in the album, which will drive the reputation of the album, and then attract popularity and drive the sales of the album.

But can Liu Pian's kid still write such a song?

Therefore, Li Yu only cares about one issue.

"Liu Pian, the song of the album?"

"I'll write it!" Liu Pian said confidently, "Five songs, let's make an EP." ”

EPs are mini albums, discs, generally with three to seven songs, no more and no less than five songs. The main reason is that Liu Pian is afraid that the deception point is not enough, and he can't draw ten songs to make a traditional album.

Now he probably has about fifteen thousand deception points on hand, and according to the urine nature of the system, he can draw out seven or eight songs at most.

Li Yu also thinks that the EP is a little more secure, mainly because the cost is much smaller, and the legendary band can still afford it.

"EP is okay, if we arrange five songs by ourselves, the final cost can be controlled within 100,000!" Li Yu analyzed, "The main thing is to find a recording studio to spend money on songs, and we can do the rest ourselves." ”

"Money is not an issue, you have to do it to do your best. Said the willow liar. He still has a little spare money on hand now, and counting the share of the sales of "Medal", the Liu liar has a capital of more than 10 million.

"Medal" has now sold almost 1.6 million copies, and the sales of some popular singles have exceeded 2 million, and the platform has taken 30% of it, and the remaining 70% has been redivided, and the Liu liar can take 15%.

That's more than three million!

Counting the previous earnings, there are indeed more than 10 million.

These days, copyright is really making money.

In the end, Li Yu and Liu Pian discussed, he went to contact the recording studio, and Liu Pian concentrated on writing songs.

......

Li Yu can't wait now, he was constrained by conditions before, and he didn't make an album well. He was afraid that no one would listen to him, he wouldn't be able to sell it, and no one would be willing to invest in the band. Now that Liu Pian has provided support, his mind is alive again.

The rest of the band is also supportive.

A few people are crazy people who play rock and roll, and they are about to go crazy into fools after being crazy for more than ten years, so why not go crazy again this time?

On the same day, several members of the band began to contact some recording studios in Kyoto, trying to pick out a company with a good reputation and high cost performance. But I searched and searched and didn't find a satisfactory one.

It's really used to being in the Hundred Flowers Recording Studio.

Other recording studios have such high-end Baihua, and the asking price is too high, thousands of yuan an hour, and I can't stand it. It's cheap, and Li Yu doesn't look down on other people's hardware conditions, and it's too far away.

Helplessly, Li Yu called Yue Jiaming and asked his seniors to introduce him.

After Yue Jiaming learned about it, he smiled and said, "Li Yu, if you want to find a high-end and cheap recording studio like Baihua, I guess you can't find it." I can do a favor to give you bands a discount, other studios don't. ”

Li Yu was embarrassed, it was rumored that the band was indeed eating and drinking.

"You said that Liu Pian kid proposed to make an album?"

"Hmm. ”

"That kid can sell every song, he should have a lot of money, right?"

"Uh....."

"In this way, you ask Liu Pian if he is interested in buying Baihua?"

"Brother Ming, don't be joking, just Baihua's conditions, there are not tens of millions, can you buy it? Didn't I say, even if you want to buy a house, you can't buy it in Baihua Hutong, the house price is too expensive. ”

Baihua Recording Studio is in the "Hundred Flowers Deep" alley, and the average house price of this alley is 60,000 or 70,000 yuan. The area of Baihua is about 300 square meters. This is only counting the house, not counting the equipment inside.

Anyway, the willow crooks can't afford it.

Yue Jiaming also has a headache, his plan is to sell the house, if people are interested in inheriting their "property" and opening the recording studio, of course it is better. I can also sell those devices myself.

Now it seems that it will not be able to sell in a short time, and it is not even easy to rent. It's not a residential house, it's a recording studio.

"Forget it. Yue Jiaming sighed, "Anyway, it's not sold now, and the things inside are still there, so I'll lend it to your band for the time being, and you won't have to find other recording studios." ”

"This...."

"Okay, okay, it's empty anyway, it's empty, there's no need to waste it, and it's dusty, you remember to help me clean it up by the way." ”

"Brother Ming, it's better to rent it at the price of the previous songs, right?"

"Come on, I don't know how much money you have? ”

"No, I can't. Li Yu said stubbornly, "You can't take advantage of it in vain." ”

Yue Jiaming: "......"

"Okay, okay. Yue Jiaming was helpless, "I don't rent according to the recording studio, I will give you the rent according to the resident's house." How long do you have to make songs? Is two months enough?"

"Enough, enough. Li Yu nodded hurriedly.

"That's it, just give it to me in total.... Twenty thousand. ”

"Thank you. Li Yu said gratefully, renting a top recording studio for 10,000 a month is almost the price of cabbage.

Yue Jiaming didn't care about this money, it just meant it. When the time comes, the house is sold, and it will be tens of millions.

Hanging up the phone, Yue Jiaming muttered:

"Boy Liu, you have to give me a few good rock songs...."

"Let's let these two months witness the birth of Baihua's last rock album. ”

......

On the fifth, Liu Pian spent nine thousand deception points to draw five songs.

Five rock songs with different styles!

From pseudo-shake to real shake, from pop rock to folk songs, from love to dreams, everything is there.

Even the way of singing is different.

Liu Pian was once again suppressed by the system's "big strokes".

Moreover, there are a few songs that have too much charm and stamina, and he feels that this time the system is going to kill all ages!

"System, I just like your domineering!"

[I've traveled so many worlds, I just don't want to ruin my excellent reputation as a system]

Liu Pian: "......"

He especially likes the shamelessness of the system.

Or excellent reputation?

You are the best at black-box operation.

Without further ado, Liu Pian went to the library that night and copied down all the songs. When I was writing, I was always wary of Xiao Min beside me, for fear that she would see it.

Xiao Min was also very interested in not peeping into Liu Pian's secret, but just quietly reading the music on the side.

She has been learning to compose music recently, and when she encounters something she doesn't understand, she will take the opportunity to ask Liu Pian for advice. She told Liu Pian that when she finished writing a song, she hoped that Liu Pian could help her fill in the lyrics.

It doesn't matter what you fill in.

The willow liar agreed.

He felt a little guilty.

He refused again and again, but Xiao Min stayed again and again. What made him undeniable was that he really felt Xiao Min's concern.

Where there is a cause, there is an effect.

If someone else pays, then they need to compensate. This will allow Liu Pian to find self-comfort.

Look, she did give, but I also paid for the song.

No one owes anyone!

.......

After leaving the library, Liu Liar returned to his dormitory and found Yan Zhe alone.

"Where's Liu Yi, hasn't come back yet?"

"Nope. ”

"Then I guess I won't be able to come back tonight. ”

According to Liu Liar's idea, Liu Yi may not be happy now. But in fact, Liu Yi didn't go out to fool around tonight.

He happened to run into Xiao Min on the way back.

Just after she separated from Liu Pian.

"Yo, it's such a coincidence, didn't you go to accompany Liu Daguan tonight?" Liu Yi curled the corners of his mouth, looking like a hanger.

Liu Pian went back to the bedroom. Xiao Min smiled faintly.

"It's really like glue, I'm really envious of me, Liu Pian is really blessed, why don't I have such a big beauty to entangle?" The words were very good, but Liu Yi's playful smile did not make Xiao Min feel that the other party was complimenting him.

"You have so many girlfriends to accompany you, you can change one every day, and you will envy Liu Pian?"

"Because they're not as pretty as you. Liu Yi took a step closer and stood in front of Xiao Min, bowing his head and looking down at her with a wicked smile.

Xiao Min quietly took a step back and distanced himself.

Liu Yi shrugged, "But no matter how beautiful you are, you can't fall into the eyes of the Liu liar." That guy is a fool in this regard, he was born with a lack of tendon in his head, and if he doesn't open his mind, I advise you, it's better not to waste your efforts. ”

"You're not him, that's it?"

Liu Yi was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Yes, I'm not him, but I know what kind of person he is." Don't look at that guy likes to deceive people, but in the final analysis, his heart is too soft and too affectionate. He can say that he likes you, and after playing with you, he will break up with you, and then add a sentence: Actually, I lied to you, I don't like you at all. ”

"But, he wouldn't do that, wouldn't he?" Xiao Min smiled, "Moreover, cheating on other girls and breaking up after playing should be your usual routine, right?"

Liu Yi didn't mind what Xiao Min said about herself, "Yes and what? That's why I said that Liu Pian is a soft-hearted fool." ”

"He's not a fool. Xiao Min shook his head.

Liu Yi sneered: "If men and women have been together for a long time, they will become stupid." ”

Xiao Min covered his mouth and smiled, "Then I didn't see you become stupid?"

"Because I won't be emotional, and you won't either, we're the same kind of people, but ....." Liu Yi smiled a little grimly, "Liu liar is not necessarily." ”

Xiao Min: "......"

"You're playing with fire. Liu Yi looked at Xiao Min meaningfully, "I don't care if you hook up with other boys, but if you find the head of the Liu liar, then I will take care of it." ”

"Why do you care about me and Liu Pian?" The smile on Xiao Min's face disappeared for the first time, and he looked at Liu Yi with a displeased expression, "Why do you say that I am the same kind of person as you?"

"Isn't it? Song Yang is still fascinated by you. ”

"Hehe, I'm not like you, at least I've never had a relationship with anyone else. ”

Liu Yi took a step forward: "But you also have to know that it is easier to change your appetite than to hang your appetite." ”

Xiao Min was not to be outdone: "Then you must also know that it is more difficult to quit drugs than to take drugs!"

Liu Yi was dumbfounded, and then smiled freely, "I'll just have a cigar when I die, and drugs are not counted." It's you, poppy. ”

Clapping his hands, Liu Yi shook his body, looked at the full moon above his head, and said with a smile, "Forget it, I won't quarrel with you, what do you like, as long as I'm still by his side for a day, don't want to hurt him." I still advise you, stop it early, don't provoke the willow liar. ”

"Are you managing too much?" Xiao Min said coldly.

"You're just going to be nosy. Liu Yi shook his legs and said casually.

Seeing Liu Yi's rogue appearance, Xiao Min also had a headache, and after being silent for a long time, she sighed lightly, "Liu Yi, what if I really like Liu Pian?"

"No way. Liu Yi's eyelids twitched, and then he denied it.

"How is it impossible? Your daily duplicity doesn't mean that I'm always hypocritical. Xiao Min smiled again, she felt that she had finally gained a little upper hand.

Liu Yi was also silent.

Shouldn't she and herself both be hypocritical emotional liars?

Will she be emotional?

Just kidding.

He suddenly felt like he was falling into the wrong place, and things were getting a little out of control. True love, that is the most taboo for emotional liars, and it is also a double-edged sword, killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred.

"You lied to me, didn't you?" asked Liu Yi.

"Guess?" Xiao Min blinked.

Liu Yi's face darkened.

I guess you're a sister!

Damn, crazy woman!
