Chapter 64: MV Writing Contest

In the blink of an eye, January arrived, because of the popularity of "I Am a Little Bird", the impetus of "Huaxia Music Association Daily", and a series of other factors contributed to Jiang Li's skyrocketing popularity during this period, and his popularity increased sharply, driving all his songs to glow with a second spring, and there was a wave of sales boom.

Jiang Li once again made an additional investment in Little Bird Company, up to 10 million, and the shares were redistributed, changing to 95% of Jiang Li, 3% of Chen Shimei, and 2% of Dai Tao, with total assets of more than 20 million, and recruited 10 employees, and upgraded servers and bandwidth, which can accommodate 60,000 people to watch videos online at the same time.

According to a rough estimate, Jiang Li's current net worth has exceeded 70 million, not including various potential values such as famous brands.

January is destined to be a busy and fulfilling January for Jiang Li, first of all, the first stage of Jiang Li's Ye Chen MV Creation Contest was announced, and under the joint participation of six judges and many members, ten shortlisted works were born, and the final ranking will be decided by Jiang Li and Ye Chen.

These ten entries, respectively about "Fairy Tale", "Leaves", "Promise", "Wings", "June Rain", "Big City Little Love", "Don't Talk", "Match Heaven", "It's Been Quiet" and "Summer Blown by the Wind" sung by Jiang Li and Ye Chen, can be said to be very even, and special attention was paid to try not to repeat when selecting, "I Am a Little Bird" and the two songs created after are not included in the scope of the competition, so there are no shortlisted works for these three songs.

In fact, the MV of "June Rain" was almost screened out, because the member rating was not ideal, compared to other songs created by Jiang Li, this song was the least popular, and it was Tang Shishi and Shu Yutong who supported it to pass, because for them, it was the first experience, and they couldn't forget it anyway.

Do you still remember that May, when the wind and the sun were beautiful, in the basement of the villa, the three of them cooperated for the first time to create "June Rain"?

At that time, Jiang Li didn't know anything about the guitar and piano, and at that time, Jiang Li was still very shy.

And now, Jiang Li is already an intermediate musician, not to mention proficient in guitar and piano, at least he can play proficiently, and he can be relatively calm in the face of various situations.

Do you still remember that June, when the smoke and rain were miserable, Jiang Li's first record "June Rain in Jiangcheng" was released?

And now, the total sales of Jiang Li's third record "Don't Talk" have exceeded three million.

In a flash, more than half a year has passed, and Jiang Li has been reborn to this shijie for so long, going through the late spring and early summer, spending the late summer and early autumn, and in the blink of an eye, the winter solstice, the first snow in Jiangcheng has already fallen.

Jiang Li watched the three-person band in the video perform "June Rain" together, as if he saw the shadow of him, Shu Yutong and Tang Shishi, but the other party was two men and one woman, and the lead singer was a woman, whose name was Liu Yueyu.

Liu Yueyu, June Rain, is really a name of fate, no wonder he chose the least watched haode "June Rain".

"A rain traps me here, your indifferent expression will make me sad, the rain in June is the ruthless ...... you"

According to the regulations of this MV creation competition, if it is a cover instead of directly quoting the original song, and it reaches a certain level, there will be extra points, Liu Yueyu's singing is undoubtedly the biggest highlight of this MV.

At this time, Tang Shishi came over and whispered almost pleadingly: "Silly Li, can you make this MV into the top five, you have to be responsible for our first time." ”

Jiang Li coughed dryly, what he said was easy for others to misunderstand, okay?

He showed a sunny smile to Tang Shishi and said, "Shishi, you can't bring too much personal preferences and emotions when judging the rankings, which is unfair to other contestants. ”

"Okay, as long as you're fair, you're reasonable, you big fool, don't pay attention to you anymore!" Tang Shishi pouted and ran away.

Jiang Li smiled slightly, he didn't hold back or comfort him, he knew that Tang Shishi was not the kind of person who played with his temper, but he protested a little, and he teased the other party a little.

For the first time, it was just as important to him, and since the decision was in his own hands, why not be selfish?

He is not a selfless saint, just a mortal with an open hanging.

"Shishi, I let you play tricks on me every time, this time, it's my turn, hum. ”

Liu Yueyu and the three of them didn't expect that they took a risk this time, but they really made the right bet, in fact, things in the world are sometimes like this, not because of insufficient strength, but because the opportunity has not arrived.

A chance can lead to a successful future.

Jiang Li continued to watch and enjoy other videos, some of which were particularly well shot, some of which were quite exciting, and two of which were very good in shooting and covering, namely "Summer Blown by the Wind" by the "Slim and Slim" group and "Match Heaven" by Gao Lang.

Before December 10th, it was completely the "slim and slim" group, and the popularity was always the first, and no one could match it, but on the night of the 10th, Gao Lang's "Match Heaven" MV sprung up and broke out of the encirclement, like a hurricane, rolling up a storm!

Up to now, the number of views of Gao Lang's "Match Heaven" MV has steadily exceeded 10 million, leaving behind the "slim and elegant" combination works released many days earlier than it, with a difference of hundreds of thousands in playback, and the score is six points higher!

Everyone has only one word for this MV work, praise!

Because of its creativity, because it touched everyone.

Gao Lang is a freelance photographer and a guitarist at the same time, holding a guitar in his arms, singing while walking, recording everything he sees with a camera, and bringing joy to everyone with music, which is his simple but not simple life.

Walking most of China, Gao Lang entered the territory of Suzhou Province, heard "Match Heaven", and heard about a young singer named Jiang Li.

"Walking in the cold and snowy night sky, selling matches to feed my dreams, freezing step by step and lonely, cold and freezing my hands ......"

"Who will buy my matches, who will light all hopes, who will buy my loneliness, who will fulfill my call to home......"

When such a song sounded in his ears, Gao Lang was touched from the bottom of his heart, and from tens of thousands of photos, he found out the impression of those little girls and boys forever, or squatting in the corner and biting his fingers, or rummaging in the garbage heap, or kneeling on the ground with a small bowl and begging, whether it is that Huaxia, or this Huaxia, no matter which time and space, there are some people who are inevitably such a fate.

Gao Lang cleverly connected these photos, accompanied by the self-playing and self-singing "Match Heaven", showing another side of this shijie that many people do not know.

The flowers in the greenhouse, do you know that in the boundless barren wilderness, there are tenacious weeds, and their bodies carry the back of a shijie.

"I'm just a recorder, I faithfully record their figures, and I can only record their figures, and now, I finally hear them, their voices, thanks to the creator of this song, Jiang Li, for letting me hear their voices. ”

zuihou is a quiet monologue, the hoarse voice of the high waves is like those children staggering on the road of life, stumbling, and not seeing the dawn.

Although it was not the first time he had seen it, Jiang Li's heart still felt an indescribable shock, and he muttered, "I thank you the same way, Gao Lang. ”

Jiang Li couldn't help but think of the children in the orphanage, I don't know if they are doing well now, after he came back last time, he asked Ai Wenjing to purchase a batch of equipment to send over, mainly musical instruments, last month, they collectively sent a long letter, the words are full of children's simple and sincere joy, they express their love and miss for Ah Li, they share the experience of reading Ah Li's fairy tales, they said that they will learn musical instruments and performances well, and not let Ah Li down.

If there were angels on this shijie, Jiang Li would be willing to believe that it was them.

"If you can, go see them before the New Year. He thought to himself.

After several changes and repeated thoughts, Jiang Li and Ye Chen finally finalized the Zuihou ranking, but in fact, it was mainly Jiang Li who was in charge.

The winner of the Jiang Li Ye Chen MV Creation Contest is Gao Lang's "Match Heaven", which is not only the MV of a song, but also the cry of the hearts of all lonely street children! Listen!

The runner-up, "The Summer Blown by the Wind" by the "Slim and Yuli" group, Xie Ting and Zhou Yuli, with perfect cooperation and superb singing skills, tell the story of Aiqing that summer encounter.

The third runner-up, Yu Bo's "Big City and Little Love", different from the first two, this is a Flash animation, simple but exquisite pictures give people a bright feeling, clean and fresh pure love breath comes to the face, and it deserves to win the third place.

Fourth place, Xu Hengliang's "Don't Speak", from beginning to end there is no word, no lyrics, only melodic accompaniment, just the right topic, and he himself performed a silent stage play, using body movements to perfectly interpret the content of the lyrics, which is breathtaking.

Fifth place, Liu Yueyu's three-person band's "June Rain", the female voice reproduces the initial touch, a different taste, a different June rain!

……

The master is in the folk, this is actually true, a creative competition, stirring up a world, the top ten were basically unknown before, but this time they emerged and became a blockbuster.

Jiang Li Ye Chen's MV Creation Contest came to an end, the big red banner on the homepage of the Little Bird website was prominently marked, the media in the province reported intensively, and even a lot of voices came out outside the province, and the Little Bird website once again attracted attention and its popularity grew by leaps and bounds.

At the same time, there was another incident that particularly touched the nerves of the people of Soviet Province.

The candidates for the nomination of the Chinese music festival Su Province are freshly released!
