Chapter 157: Too Far Away
On Wednesday afternoon, Huang Guolun went to the district to hold a teaching seminar for high school music teachers.
This will be much longer than Huang Guolun expected.
Huang Guolun told Yao Dajun at noon that his meeting was estimated to end at about three o'clock, and it would end at half past three at most.
Based on his experience in holding this kind of meeting, he felt that he could hold it for an hour and a half.
Unexpectedly, the meeting lasted for nearly two and a half hours that afternoon, and it was almost half past four o'clock.
Yao Dajun took his nephew Yao Ming and waited for Huang Guolun dryly for more than an hour.
Huang Guolun was quite upset.
As soon as the meeting ended, Huang Guolun immediately took a taxi home, and asked Yao Dajun to take Yao Ming directly to his house in Zixing Mansion, he has a recording studio at home, and he can directly help Yao Ming try the sound to see how many catties and taels this kid has.
Huang Guolun took a taxi to the gate of the community, and as soon as he got out of the car, he heard Yao Dajun's loud voice: "Erlun!"
Huang Guolun turned around and saw Yao Dajun crossing the street and walking towards him with a young man who was 1.9 meters tall.
No need to ask, this tall man must be Yao Ming.
I don't know if the person named YaoMing is tall.
It stands to reason that Yao Dajun is not short, and he is very energetic.
But standing in front of his nephew, Yao Dajun was immediately compared.
This Yao Ming is not only tall, but also very handsome, at first glance he looks a little similar to Li Zhiting, his face is long, his thick eyebrows are shining, and the bridge of his nose is high.
"You're going to drive long enough, my nephew and I are almost smoking a pack of cigarettes in the car. ”
With a body of smoke, Yao Dajun complained about Huang Guolun with a smile as soon as he came over, patted Yao Ming's arm, and asked him to call someone.
"Uncle Lun is good. ”
is very different from his tall and mighty appearance, Yao Ming's voice is actually very soft, and he has a bit of the shyness of a big boy, not at all like a rebellious young man who dares to drop out of school and go out to play rock and roll.
Huang Guolun's ears were thief, and as soon as he heard Yao Ming speak, he immediately found a bit of Zhang Xinzhe's taste from his voice, which was also a bit like the bald peace.
If this kind of voice is tempered well, it should be very recognizable.
"This is my nephew Yao Ming. ”
Yao Dajun introduced Yao Ming to Huang Guolun.
Huang Guolun nodded, and said to the two of them in a friendly voice: "I'm really sorry, today's meeting is a bit long, so you have been waiting for a long time, hurry up, let's talk at home." ”
Huang Guolun and Yao Dajun walked side by side and walked into the community.
Yao Ming was like a handsome follower, and followed the two of them a little stiffly towards this high-end community that he had never been to.
Yao Dajun asked Huang Guolun as he walked: "Is your old lady here?" ”
Huang Guolun smiled and scolded Yao Dajun: "When did you come to my house empty-handed, my mother would have been surprised for a long time." ”
"No, no, no, this time is different, I haven't seen my mother for a few days, I have to buy a fruit basket. ”
"Don't toss, our old lady is not here. This afternoon, after kindergarten school, Peaches has a Chinese culture class to go, and the old lady took Peaches to class, and she came back late. ”
"Well, then I won't buy anything, hehe. Yao Dajun smiled cheekily.
The two uncle-level elders were walking and chatting in front, and Yao Ming followed behind, secretly looking at Huang Guolun.
He wanted to know more about what kind of person this music teacher made the soundtrack for "Qing Ben Jia Corpse" from the conversation between the two.
Yao Dajun didn't say anything to Yao Ming before, he said that Huang Guolun is the head of the music department of Huang Guokun's entertainment company, and Yao Ming needs to be recognized by Huang Guolun if he wants to be a signed artist of Kunlun Culture.
As for Huang Guolun's music level, Yao Dajun can't say why.
After so many years of brothers, Yao Dajun has never felt how brilliant Huang Guolun's music is.
However, after watching "Qing Ben Jia Corpse" produced by Kunlun Culture recently, the music in it really left a deep impression on Yao Dajun.
Yao Ming also watched this movie, and he was shocked by the electronic metal soundtrack in this movie.
Not to mention the extremely explosive theme song at the end, just a few divine soundtracks in the film made Yao Ming impressed by Huang Guolun's metal skills.
The theme song at the end of the film, accompanied by the passage where the female zombie kills the government army, is even more incendiary for Yao Ming.
According to his shallow opinion, he thinks that such a soundtrack and theme song should be regarded as the top level in the domestic metal circle.
The person who can write such awesome works must be a special rock teacher, right?
Ran goose, now that I really see it, Yao Ming is a little disappointed in Huang Guolun.
Judging from the current contact alone, Yao Ming can't associate the music in "The Good Corpse of Qing Ben" with the ordinary uncle in front of him who is holding a thermos cup and looks like an old cadre.
Listening to Huang Guolun's speech is also unbearable, and there is no rock and roll style at all.
He can't even find a single hair of rebellious temperament.
Yao Ming was looking forward to getting acquainted with a rebellious teacher with a rock aura, but now that he looks, this uncle has no personality at all.
So much so that he had to wonder if the music in "The Good Corpse" was really made by this uncle?
He's not just going to be famous, is he?
Can the Kunlun Culture and Music Department, which is in charge of this uncle, take him on the road of a professional singer?
Yao Ming's heart began to bulge.
Although he had a slight doubt about Huang Guolun, the modernity and luxury of Huang Guolun's family greatly opened the eyes of Yao Ming, a young man who had just turned twenty years old who had never seen much of the world.
After Huang Guolun entered the house, he directly took the two to the professional recording studio in the house, which made Yao Ming even more shocked.
Uncle Lun actually has such a professional recording studio at home!
it!
The people who opened the cemetery really have money in their families!
Yao Ming opened his eyes this time.
People rely on clothes and horses to saddle, and dogs with bells bark happily.
After noticing that the professional equipment in Huang Guolun's recording studio at home was very high-end, Yao Ming didn't dare to underestimate Huang Guolun again.
Huang Guolun brought drinks to the two.
The three of them sat down and chatted for a few words, Huang Guolun asked Yao Ming for the music sample that Yao Ming had prepared in advance, and he listened to the sample that Yao Ming brought first.
Yao Ming's demo is a song previously recorded by their band, which is a mash-up style of hard rock and pop metal.
This sample is made of thick and fine.
The music itself did not arouse Huang Guolun's interest too much, Yao Ming's voice was very recognizable, which left a deep impression on Huang Guolun.
Huang Guolun's ears were thieves, and he heard that the original sound of Yao Ming's sample was repaired, which is understandable.
In today's Chinese music scene, singers who don't repair their voices are basically extinct, even if they are the top singers, they still have to repair their voices when they should repair their voices, just to get better singing results.
But Huang Guolun felt that Yao Ming's small voice repair was more serious, and his voice was too gorgeous, and his temperament was very similar to Queen's lead singer Freddy.
Later, I chatted with Yao Ming, and this guy really liked Queen very much.
Don't look at him now, he looks quite young and shy, but according to his own words, their band has played glam rock before, the whole band has dyed red hair, and put false eyelashes on the performance, which is very personal.
Yao Ming describes his dream as a Freddy in China, conquering the world with his high-pitched and brilliant voice and dramatic performance.
When he said this, Yao Ming's eyes were bright.
It can be seen that he really has a musical dream that he is willing to fight for to the end, and he has a rock heart that can't be beaten no matter how he fights.
However, Huang Guolun felt that Yao Ming's dream was a bit big.
Especially after letting Yao Ming go into the recording studio to sing a song of their band live, Huang Guolun felt that Yao Ming's desire to become China's Freddy was too far away.
This kid's voice is very high-pitched, but it lacks manliness, and listening to him sing live is too soft. He sings and speaks, just like he speaks, and has a neutral temperament.
Huang Guolun initially thought that it might be Yao Ming's first time singing in front of him, but he was nervous and didn't play well, so he sang like this.
But after letting Yao Ming sing a few songs in a row, Huang Guolun still felt that Yao Ming's singing tone was too soft, which was related to his nature.
Freddy's voice is also very high-pitched, Axl-Rose, the lead singer of Gun Flower, and Brian Johnson, the former lead singer of ACDC, also have a very high-pitched voice, but these people's voices are high-pitched, and when it is time to tear up, they can burst out with a manhood that tears everything, and they can be very crazy when they are dry, and they feel like they can poke a hole in the sky when they are hard.
Yao Ming's voice obviously lacks such a hard-core temperament.
There is also a more serious point, that is, Yao Ming's singing has a big problem in terms of absolute pitch.
In addition to singing the songs of his own band, let him sing other songs, he was actually out of tune.
Even if he sings his own band's work, the pitch and feeling he sings are very different from those in the sample.
Wooden ears like Yao Dajun's may not sound very obvious.
But in Huang Guolun's divine ears, Yao Ming's singing is almost pure amateurish, at most it is a KTV level, his basic skills are too poor, and the most important thing for the singer is not very sufficient, which is particularly inconsistent with his height of nearly 1.9 meters.
No wonder he hasn't mixed up for so many years, and he is always eliminated from the draft, as far as his current strength is concerned, in addition to his appearance, he can give him a big plus. When it comes to music, there are so few bright spots to find.
It is estimated that the record company that signed him before signed him because of his appearance.
In terms of musical literacy alone, this kid is still too far from a professional singer.
Compared with Bai Yao, who had just started, he had to be three yellow peaches behind.
"Erlun, you tell the truth, what do you think of my nephew, is it worth your company to pull him?"
chatted and chatted, Yao Ming sang and sang, Yao Dajun saw that Huang Guolun was slow to express his position, and he couldn't sit still, so he directly threw this question in front of Huang Guolun in front of Yao Ming.
