"Until now, Li Qian still thinks that the romantic flight is a huge waste of resources for Nogizaka, in fact, I have always wanted to say to him, waste is waste, I am happy! In my opinion, the most important thing is to make the song sell well and sell well, of course, this is from the creator's point of view, and royalties are everything. - "A Confession of a Waste, Teach You How to Become a Scumbag - Career" by Tian Licheng

Kitagawa Kenji didn't dare to slack off: "Uncle Li, it's because of the urgency of 100,000 that I specially invited you over." Ozawa, you can sit too, Nango has found a good song, I need the opinion of your professionals. ”

"Then let's put it away, I'm short on time, and I still have work to prepare later. Li Qian urged impatiently.

As a senior director of Sony Music, Li Qian has made great contributions to the development of the company for more than 20 years, and his status is quite high, even Kitagawa Kenji's father, Kitagawa Naoki, has treated him with courtesy. What's more, he has been immersed in music for decades, and the works produced by him are the guarantee of quality.

Beichuan can only smile bitterly and turn a blind eye to this uncle's casualness, after all, Li Qian has this attitude towards everyone except for the musicians he approves, and the whole company is used to it......

Nango nodded at Kitagawa and pressed the play button of the voice recorder in his hand.

"Yo, this song is kind of interesting. When the prelude to the song came, Li Qian sat up straight on the sofa all of a sudden, and said to Beichuan happily when he saw Hunting.

"There's a play!" Beichuan and Nango were overjoyed.

As Yoshida's singing voice came, Li Qian closed his eyes, as if intoxicated, his right hand continued to beat with the melody, and when he heard the climax, he danced like a symphony conductor, and his facial features continued to beat with the music, as if he was doing exercises, which was quite funny.

Ozawa, on the other hand, was much more reserved, holding his cheeks thoughtfully, his fingers tapping lightly along with the melody on the handle of the seat.

At the end of the song, Li Qian's eyes lit up, and he said with joy: "I really didn't expect that you could still dig up treasures from the place of free musicians, Qianji, your subordinate is a bit of a door!" After speaking, he also looked Nanxiang up and down carefully.

Beichuan listened to Li Qian's words, and was both proud and surprised: "Why did Uncle Li know at once that this was a song found from a freelance musician? ”

Li Qian frowned: "Aren't you talking nonsense? I have heard a little bit of the songs in the Sony music library, if there is such a good song, can it still be kept until now? ”

He paused to gather his thoughts, and then said, "It's even more impossible for another company to sell to us." What company would be so defeated that it would not take this song to praise its own singers? This kind of song, any company receives it, and it is only right to use it immediately, and it can't hide it. Whoever you say this is going to sing it to. Singing to the newcomers, the old man feels that the company is biased and does not take care of the old comrades; Singing to the old man, the newcomer feels that the company is more partial, ranking seniority, and giving opportunities to others, you say, is it a trouble to keep this song?" Li Qian has seen several examples of turning against each other because of the ownership of the song, and it seems that this song has the same charm.

Ozawa nodded and agreed, "If I were to evaluate this song, there would be only one word, demonic." ”

"Demonism?" asked Kitagawa and Nango in unison, it was the first time they had heard someone evaluate a song with demonic nature. Li Qian nodded again and again in agreement.

Ozawa took the sheet music, pointed to the beginning of the part, and explained to the two of Kitagawa: "Although the lyrics of this song do not have a specific description of the scenery, but you look at the melody of the prelude, a few notes seem to outline the scene of the blue sky and the sea, the author has been imperceptibly paving the way from the beginning, this skill is really, tsk~~"

"It seems like that's the case, why do you make so much sense. Beichuan couldn't help but admire in his heart, professionals are just different.

Ozawa then analyzed: "Looking at the climax of "wowwowwow" again, is there an urge to soar in the air, hovering over the clouds, and can't help but want to shout? Before I knew it, I had in my mind that I was on a plane, looking at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window, and when I arrived at the beach, the sea level was endless. I can't wait for summer to come soon, and take a trip that is just on the go. I don't know what Uncle Li thinks. Ozawa stomped his feet excitedly and turned his head to ask Li Qian.

"You said everything I wanted to say, the word demonic nature is used very well, the author is very skillful, and more importantly, very aura. To make the song full of pictures, this is not something that ordinary people can do. Nanxiang boy, where did you find this song, I can be regarded as convinced of you. Li Qian was also amazed in his heart, such songs can be found, Sony's music library really needs to be expanded.

"This is written by a junior in my college. Nanxiang was a little embarrassed, he only thought that Tian Licheng's song was praised, but what was the specific good, until now after listening to Xiao Ze and Li Qian's analysis, he had an intuitive understanding that there is still a big gap between his musical accomplishment and these professionals. In addition, Tian Licheng owes a lot of favors.

"College students?" Kitagawa asked.

"Todai?" Ozawa was shocked.

"Don't talk nonsense. Li Qian was furious.

The three of them reacted differently, and Nanxiang was already mentally prepared, after all, if he changed himself, he would probably be just as surprised.

He roughly introduced Tian Licheng's situation to the three of them. For example, when he was a freshman, he wanted to give him the position of president of the music club, but he refused on the grounds that it would affect his creation.

In the end, Nanxiang made a summary of Lao Tian, which is a low-key demon.

"He wrote the song "I Believe"?" Ozawa remembered that someone had posted a video in the TT group a few days ago, saying that he had found two very nice songs in the East University Park Festival, and the live effect was even more amazing, not inferior to professional singers in any way.

At first he scoffed, is it so easy to be professional? What do you want me to eat?

After watching the videos of the two songs suspiciously, he realized that they were not exaggerating.

For this song "I Believe", he has looped it several times, and this song is indeed impassioned and inspiring. A song can be said to be accidental, but if three good songs are released in a row, it really deserves the name of the demon.

"Na Qianji, are you going to use this song to bid for HNA's advertising endorsement? Li Qian asked.

Kitagawa nodded.

Li Qian frowned: "You guy, it's too wasteful, this kind of song is simply a tyrannical thing to sing for a girl group like Nogizaka." Give me a face, teach Nishikawa Takashi, his passionate voice can control this song, no matter how bad it is for the Rainbow Orchestra, Nogizaka may not even be able to play 60% of the benefits of this song, a good song is to let a good singer sing it. ”

Seeing that he had hit a nail in Li Qian's place, Beichuan had to turn to Ozawa's place for help: "Ozawa-san, what do you think? As Nogizaka's music instructor, you should know their strength best." ”

Ozawa is a bit of a dilemma, one is his senior, the other is his boss, it's not easy to disobey anyone.

After a battle between heaven and man, he rubbed his hands restlessly, and slowly said his opinion: "I think, why don't you give Nogizaka a try?" At the critical moment, he still chose his disciple, after all, this kind of good song is really rare, as a teacher, of course, he has to work for the benefit of his students.

He didn't dare to look at Li Qian's angry eyes, so he had to lower his head and say: "This song is originally biased towards a relaxed and happy atmosphere, if the girls are allowed to sing together, with the appropriate choreography, maybe it can reflect a more energetic and positive feeling on the stage." As for singing, it may be true that Nogizaka can't come up with a singer who can take charge on his own, but the chorus can make up for many of these shortcomings, and I think at least let them try it, as their teacher, I have confidence!

In the end, Ozawa is also out of the way, three stinkers, the top Zhuge Liang, the singing skills are not enough, the number is to make up, and the brain makes up for the scene of Nogizaka singing and dancing when he sings this song, he feels that it is not much worse, all in all, get this song first.

Beichuan was secretly happy in his heart, but there was a sincere expression on his face: "Uncle Li, why don't you let Nogizaka try it first, now is the time for them to take off, I am going to release this song as their eighth single, so maybe they will be able to become popular this year." Time is running out, I can't go this year, Hashiraishi and Matsumura are a year older, and the life of an idol is not a year old. ”

That's why he asked Ozawa to come with him, let Kitagawa himself and Li Qian go to the bull, he felt that there was not enough heat in music, and it would be much easier to find the same musician to balance Li Qian's views - Ozawa is Nogizaka's mentor after all, and it must be his own side at the critical moment.

Li Qian looked at Beichuan and then at Xiao Ze, who didn't know that Beichuan had already made a decision in his heart, he sighed: "That's it, sales are king, and now the records are getting harder and harder to sell, so Nogizaka is still selling better." That's it, after all, it will be the world of you young people in the future, let me do the recording when the time comes, such a good song, no matter what, you can't miss it. ”

He got up and walked towards the door, halfway through, when he suddenly turned around, as if he remembered something: "Isn't the original eighth order going to use Akimoto-sensei......'s song?"

Kitagawa smiled: "Don't worry, I will coordinate with Mr. Akimoto, after all, our starting point is for the good of Nogizaka, and he will understand." ”

"That's good, you must call me when the time comes. Li Qian waved his hand and walked out of the office.

"Huh~~~ finally convinced him. Kitagawa let out a sigh of relief.

Then he gestured to the other two with a sly smile: "Let's hurry up and talk about the plan for the future." ”
