Chapter 60: Making an Album

Xu Yang recorded the songs, still as fast as ever, three songs, and the recording was successful in less than two hours.

Next, it's time for Liu Ruoning to record the song.

The reason why Xu Yang recorded a song very quickly is because he has the memory of singing these songs in his mind, and a new song, for Liu Ruoning, is not so easy, first of all, it takes a long time to be familiar with the lyrics, and then it is the understanding of the lyrics and the integration of his own feelings.

Two hours passed, and Liu Ruoning's first song did not meet the requirements for recording, so Xu Yang, who was quite helpless, pulled Su Zhendong out of the recording studio.

Sitting in the previous conference room, Xu Yang said, "Brother Zhipeng, I still have something I want you to help me." ”

Su Zhendong will definitely help with Xu Yang's matter, so he nodded and said, "You can say anything, it's all within the scope of your ability." ”

After organizing his own language, Xu Yang said directly: "That's the case, you said before that if you want to participate in this year's Chinese music event, you must produce a complete album alone, is that so?"

It turned out that Xu Yang was talking about this matter, Su Zhendong said: "That's true!"

After thinking about it, Xu Yang said: "In that case, then, with the addition of the three songs this time, can all the songs I release be made into an album?"

After listening to Xu Yang's words, Su Zhendong remembered that Xu Yang has released the singles "Dream Chasing Pure Heart", "Rice Shop", "Youth", and a total of 4 songs in "Eighteen-year-old Sky" until now, plus the 3 songs that have just been recorded, that is to say, there are already 10 songs, and an album can be produced.

After a pause, Su Zhendong said, "Then how do you want to make this album?"

For the album, Xu Yang knows the MV the most, and said: "I want to add MV to each of my songs, and the 4 songs in the TV series, as well as the 3 songs just recorded, I will let others help me complete it, you just help me complete the MV of those 3 songs." ”

Xu Yang has thought about this problem before, these songs he has released so far, except for the first three songs, and the subsequent ones, are all with the help of TV series, so that they can have such a big response, and the independent songs will not have such a big effect, therefore, it is better to cut out the TV series clips and add them, then, 7 songs can be completed, and there are only 3 left.

The first song "Dream Chasing Pure Heart" is mainly about the dream chasing heart of young people, which is not very difficult.

In the second song "Rice Shop", Xu Yang means that he wants to shoot the male protagonist in a place with a dock by the sea and a noisy urban area, while the heroine is looking for a very quiet mountain village to shoot, so compared with each other, the effect must be good.

The third song "Youth", this one is even simpler, shoot some scenes of youth on campus, and then shoot some scenes after work, just show the layering of remembrance.

The quality of an album also has a certain relationship with the MV, to see if the audience can remember this picture, therefore, for the sake of the album, Xu Yang and Su Zhendong discussed for a full hour before they almost perfected the general shooting elements, and the specific details still need to be slowly improved.

Originally, the production of albums needed to be handed over to professional record companies, but when Xu Yang chatted with Su Zhendong before, Su Zhendong said that making an album now is not so troublesome, as long as you invite a director and a few actors who shoot commercials to come over.

The director Xu Yang knows is Shi Fei, and now he is busy filming a TV series, thinking about it, Xu Yang handed over the matter to Su Zhendong.

Not to mention that Xu Yang is now a shareholder of Longpeng Network Company, even if it is a partner, Su Zhendong will spare no effort to help if he can expand the reputation of the new company, and besides, there are too many directors and actors in Kyoto, there is money to be made, and soon the shooting of the MV will be able to start.

When Xu Yang and Su Zhendong finished chatting about the album and went out, they found that it was already dark, and some employees in the company had already gotten off work.

patted his head, Xu Yang took Su Zhendong to the recording studio, and found that Liu Ruoning and the others were resting at this time, so he said hello to her, saying that she still had something to do, so let her record songs here and return to Haishi after recording.

After saying goodbye to Liu Ruoning, Xu Yang followed Su Zhendong and left Longpeng Network Company.

It's in a downtown area, and it's not easy to take a taxi, so in the end, Su Zhendong drove the company's business car to take Xu Yang to Zhicheng Publishing House.

Zhicheng Publishing House and Longpeng Network Company are far away, and it takes more than half an hour to arrive.

Su Zhendong had been here, so Xu Yang followed him in.

As soon as he saw Su Zhendong and the two come in, Lu Hui was not dissatisfied at all because of Xu Yang's tardiness, and said with a smile: "You guys are here, you haven't eaten yet, let's go eat first, and then talk about business." ”

Lu Hui didn't say that it was okay, but as soon as he said it, Xu Yang and Su Zhendong felt a little hungry.

The restaurant is near Zhicheng Publishing House, and after Xu Yang called Lu Hui, he had already ordered a meal, with a total of five dishes and one soup, enough for three people.

After the meal, the three of them returned to Lu Hui's office at Zhicheng Publishing House.

This time, Xu Yang came to discuss with Lu Hui about the book on the shelves, and the bookstore on the shelves is Qihang Bookstore, which has a cooperation with Zhicheng Publishing House, and the scale of this Qihang bookstore is not small, with a total of 11 branches in Kyoto.

Because it was the first novel written by Xu Yang, and it was also the novel of the same name of the TV series "Eighteen-Year-Old Sky", the owner of Qihang Bookstore ordered 30,000 copies.

Although this number cannot be compared with the 200,000 copies printed by Lu Hui's company, this is the case with physical books, and the bookstore is also taking a huge risk if there are too many orders at one time.

After learning about the books on the shelves, Xu Yang asked Lu Hui to help him pick up a few books, so that he could see what the books he wrote looked like when they were printed.

The cover of the book is the crew photos of several important actors in the TV series "Eighteen-year-old Sky", this is a photo that Xu Yang had asked for the opinions of several of them before, and took out a photo, the first two are Gu Yuetao and Pei Pei, and the left side behind Gu Yuetao is Shi Yanfeng, Gao Jinglei, and Yu Yifei. On the right side of Pei Pei's back are Lan Feilin, Lin Keyu, and Tian Xin.

Such a cover is enough to attract fans who have watched this TV series, and it is also a highlight of the book promotion.

In addition, on Weibo, Xu Yang also organized a small book giveaway, he posted the cover of the book, the introduction and all the geographical photos of the Qihang Bookstore to his Weibo, and attached a sentence: " Giveaways, autographed, commented numbers at 8, 88, 888, 8888, and so on, or at 10, 100, 1000, 10000, etc., these fans will get a book signed by me, and the event will be held from 9 p.m. to 9 a.m. tomorrow morning. The list of fans who received the book will be published on Weibo later. ”

When he finished sending this message, it was already 9:02 p.m., and looking at this news, Xu Yang set it to the top.
