Episode 200: Blind tossing

Choi so-young and Stella took a shorter time, only one and a half hours to complete the cooperation, because Zheng Xiyi did not ask them to oppress each other, and the characteristics of the two of them are somewhat similar, not like the previous pair of Zheng Xiuyan and Kim Taeyeon, whose voices are very different, and the singing is in Japanese, so Zheng Xiyi simply let the two of them go into the studio together and sing with each other. If it weren't for the fact that the two had never cooperated before, this is a new song, and maybe it would be done in an hour or so.

WAITING FOR CUI SO-YOUNG AND STELLA TO COME OUT OF THE RECORDING STUDIO, ZHENG XIYI LOOKED AT HIS WATCH, IT WAS ALREADY THREE O'CLOCK IN THE AFTERNOON, ZHENG XIYI STOOD UP AND WENT DOWNSTAIRS WITH THE TWO OF THEM. The scene in the living room was a little weird, Zheng Xiuyan was lying on the big sofa alone, Zhang Li-yun and Kim Tae-yeon were sitting together and whispering something, and Han Geng was standing in the courtyard behind him and walking.

Zheng Xiyi called Han Geng back to the living room, and then said to everyone: "Before you know it, it's been recorded until now, everyone is hungry, let's call something to eat first, and then continue to record the Chinese version of Zhang Li Yin XI and Brother Han Geng." ”

EXCEPT FOR JEONG SO-YEON, WHO CONTINUED TO LIE DOWN, SEVERAL OTHER PEOPLE SAT AROUND THE DINING TABLE AND DISCUSSED WITH EACH OTHER, ZHANG LI-YUN AND HAN GENG KEPT ASKING QUESTIONS, AND KIM TAE-YEON, CHOI SO-YOUNG, AND STELLA TALKED ABOUT THEIR FEELINGS DURING THE RECORDING.

Zheng Xiyi looked at the crowd of discussions, sat down on the edge of the sofa with a smile, and waited for the takeaway to be delivered with his hands on his shoulders.

"What the hell are you doing?"

Zheng Xiyi was frightened by the sudden voice, and turned her head to see that Zheng Xiuyan was still lying on the sofa, but her eyes were open.

"Xiuyan, you know that if you don't know that people are scared, they will be scared to death. ”

Zheng Xiuyan snorted coldly, "Hmph, don't change the topic, tell me what the hell are you doing." "

Zheng Xiyi spread his hands, "What purpose can I have, will I have any benefit if I perform well at the all-staff meeting?"

Zheng Xiuyan stared at Zheng Xiyi's eyes and wanted to see something from it, but unfortunately, she naturally couldn't do what Lin Xiyin couldn't do.

"Okay, don't stare at it, the takeaway is here, let's eat first, you can continue to sleep after eating, and I'll send you back to the company when Han Geng and Zhang Li Yin XI finish singing." ”

Zheng Xiyi stood up and stretched out his hand, Zheng Xiuyan looked at it suspiciously, "MO?"

"Uh...... Pull you up, do you want me, don't want me to go. ”

Zheng Xiuyan pursed her lips and thought about it, and finally succumbed to her inferior physical strength, it was always good to save some strength, she thought.

Sitting at the table, Zheng Xiyi beckoned everyone to eat quickly, but Zhang Liyin and Han Geng didn't move their chopsticks, just watched the others swallow their saliva, Zheng Xiyi looked at the dishes on the table, and then looked at the other girls who were already hungry and their eyes were green and their mouths were full of oil, "What? Li Yin, Han Geng, why don't you eat it? The one I called is authentic mixed sauce noodles, and it tastes great." ”

Zhang Liyin hesitated for a moment and gestured to Han Geng with his eyes, Han Geng smiled bitterly and said, "Xiyi, you can't eat too much before recording." ”

Zheng Xiyi reacted at this time, Cheng Youli or Li Xiaoli had told him that they were all hungry during the recording, because it might cause hiccups, and eating too much would also have an impact on gas use.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm too unprofessional, I've heard Sister Youli say it once, but I don't remember, I remember what you said, so what should I do? I don't have any snacks at home, so I can't just be hungry." ”

Zheng Xiyi scratched his head and was a little embarrassed, if everyone didn't eat, it would be fine, but now everyone except Han Geng and Zhang Liyin is eating happily, which will inevitably make the two of them even hungrier.

Zheng Xiuyan raised her head and glanced at Zheng Xiyi with disdain, and pushed the pork rib soup in front of her to Zhang Liyin, "You and Han Geng will share it, both drink some broth, eat two pork ribs, control the amount by yourself, and maintain your physical strength." ”

Zheng Xiyi patted his head and gave Zheng Xiuyan a grateful look. Zheng Xiyi ordered mixed sauce noodles for others, but Zheng Xiuyan was not, because she was allergic to cucumbers and bean sprouts, but authentic mixed sauce noodles could not be called authentic without cucumber shreds and bean sprouts as small ingredients, so Zheng Xiyi gave her a single order of kung pao chicken rice bowl, and she was afraid that it would be too greasy, so she added a pork rib soup, but she didn't expect it to be in a hurry.

Zheng Xiuyan glanced at Zheng Xiyi, lowered her head and continued to eat her kung pao chicken rice bowl, she naturally found that what she ate was different from others, and the bean sprouts couldn't be seen, but the cucumber flavor in other people's bowls still couldn't hide from her. Although she hates cucumbers very much, it would be an exaggeration to say that she can't smell them at all, and the taste of mixed sauce noodles itself is very strong, that is, she is too sensitive to cucumbers, otherwise she really can't smell them. While eating, he made a note of Zheng Xiyi's carefulness in his heart, but he was a little curious that Zheng Xiyi knew so much about her, maybe Yun'er told him?

Zhang Liyin and Han Geng shared a bowl of pork rib soup, which was originally not much, and it would be even less if one person divided half of it, but fortunately, the two of them were not to be full, so they didn't have to watch everyone eat saliva.

Zheng Xiyi watched them put down the two bowls and put down his chopsticks, the two on the other side couldn't eat, how could he continue to finish this meal slowly.

"Let's go, let's hurry up and record, and then come down and eat after the recording. ”

Zhang Liyin raised his hand and wanted to excuse herself, but Han Geng gently kicked her and stood up, "Okay, let's go up." ”

Zheng Xiyi turned around and ran upstairs, Zhang Liyin followed Han Geng's side and asked in a low voice, "Why don't you let Xiyi finish eating the noodles?"

Han Geng looked at Zheng Xiyi's back, lowered his head and whispered: "Xiyi's character is like this, if we don't eat him, we won't eat it anymore, you have to persuade him to waste time, it's better to go up and finish recording it quickly." ”

Zhang Liyin looked up, but Zheng Xiyi's figure was gone, and he had already run up to prepare for the recording.

As soon as he entered the door of the recording studio, Zheng Xiyi handed over two sheet music, Han Geng took his sweep, but his brows furrowed, "Huh, Xiyi, why do I have so many more lyrics?"

Zhang Liyin also looked at the music sheet in his hand when he heard it, and found that he also had an extra RAP.

Zheng Xiyi smiled and said, "This song is actually a Chinese song, if it weren't for STELLA, I wouldn't have written Korean lyrics, and most of the parts are mainly Chinese RAP." The lyrics of this song are coincidental, and it is not a big problem to translate them into Korean and Japanese, but I don't have the ability to translate RAP into Korean and Japanese. ”

Han Geng looked at the lyrics of the RAP part and nodded, of course he understood this truth.

No matter which language the lyrics are, it is basically impossible to translate them into another language, and even Cantonese songs are awkward to sing in Chinese, let alone two completely different languages. There are very few songs like "Ordinary DISCO" that can be literally translated into Korean and Japanese and can still maintain the original appearance of seven or eight points, this is because the rhyme of this song is all the same word or homophone, and the pronunciation of "ordinary" in Korean and Japanese is almost the same as Chinese, otherwise Zheng Xiyi will not be able to change this song to a trilingual version no matter how powerful he is.

The literal translation of lyrics is already so difficult, and RAP is even more impossible, even in Zheng Xiyi's previous life, no one can translate RAP in other languages literally and sing it well. There is no RAP in the original version of "Ordinary Disco", Zheng Xiyi copied it from one of his favorite cover versions before, and this cover version has a very interesting easter egg at the end of the final chorus, he is ready to teach it to Han Geng on the day of the all-staff meeting, which must make everyone cry and laugh.

After entering the recording studio and trying it a few times, Zhang Liyin frowned and made a rest gesture to Zheng Xiyi, and then walked out of the recording room and said to Zheng Xiyi: "Xiyi, I can't sing this RAP." ”

Zheng Xiyi didn't speak, put on his headphones and listened to it again, and then waved his hand and called Han Geng out, "Brother Han Geng, you can sing all the rap, Li Yin is really awkward to sing RAP." ”

Han Geng nodded silently, he was standing by Zhang Liyin's side just now, it was indeed too awkward. Zhang Liyin's family origins, authentic music family background, good at R&B style, to make her say that RAP is really strong, this year's Chinese singers can also Zhou Dong can say Chinese RAP like that.

Returned to the room and re-recorded it a few times, sure enough, after throwing all the RAP to Han Geng to deal with, the whole song was much smoother, although Han Geng's singing skills and RAP skills are also very average, but anyway, it is the Chinese version, as long as the rhythm is not chaotic, the bite is clear, a little flaw Koreans can't hear it, and besides, there are still a few days to practice, at least it is better than tension Yin who can't find the rhythm at all, missing words and typos. Zhang Liyin didn't need to say that RAP had no pressure, but played better, and the two of them only took forty minutes to record the Chinese version.

Zheng Xiyi raised his thumbs with both hands and gestured vigorously, Han Geng and Zhang Liyin also returned Zheng Xiyi's four thumbs with a smile, Zheng Xiyi waved his hand and said, "You guys go down to eat first, I'll synthesize all the versions together and then engrave the disc and come down." ”

Han Geng and Zhang Liyin didn't move, but stood behind Zheng Xiyi and watched him do the final synthesis, this is a bit of human affection, even children understand that it is possible to really pat their butts and leave.

Zheng Xiyi was hurriedly tinkering, and said while tinkering: "Oh, I said you two hurry down, I'm not polite, I just don't want to show my cowardice in front of you, I actually touch this thing for the third time today, today is completely a blind toss, and the pressure on the two of you to stand behind me is even greater." ”

Han Geng smiled and patted Zheng Xiyi's shoulder, "Are you showing off?" The third time you can help a few of us finish recording the song and all kinds of synthesis and mixing, if you want us to praise you, you don't have to hint like this, just say that you want to be praised." ”

Zhang Liyin pursed his lips and smiled, but he was secretly surprised in his heart, Zheng Xiyi is a genius boy, which the whole world knows, but that refers to his acting skills. I can play the console like this after only using it twice, Zheng Xiyi is not a professional background, and the word genius is really not bragging.

Although he was not very proficient in using it, Zheng Xiyi finally synthesized the versions of the three languages together, and after carving the plate, he went downstairs with Han Geng and Zhang Liyin, and the three of them finished eating the noodles that had been made, and then got into the nanny car and rushed back to S.M.

The recording is actually just a DEMO version, Zheng Xiyi knows his own level, and he can record a DEMO with his three-legged cat kung fu, and if this song is really to be performed at the general meeting, he needs to go back to S.M to find a few cattle to help.
