Chapter 53: Amateur Play Ticket
Zhao Zejun put on the headset, through the glass, and made an OK gesture to the outside, Zhen Hanqiang debugged a few buttons on the console, and then gave Zhao Zejun a thumbs up, signaling that it was okay to start. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The recording room fell silent, and Zhao Zejun's voice sounded.
is different from Miss Xia's music style, this is from Fan Weiqi's top ten inspirational songs in 04, and Zhao Zejun sings with a clear voice.
"If pride is not coldly photographed by the sea of reality
How can you know how hard you have to work hard to get far?
……
If the dream has not fallen off the cliff, it will be a thousand shots
How can you know that persistent people have invisible wings;
……
Achieved a true desire
to be able to count on being past heaven
”
Although Zhen Hanqiang is stupid, there is one sentence that is very right.
They are professionals.
The biggest difference between recording songs in a professional studio and listening to people sing in karaoke is that the latter focuses on the singers, such as whether the singer is handsome or not, whether the song is sung well or not;
In the former, in the recording studio, the attention of professionals is focused on the song itself.
Whether the melody is beautiful, whether the lyrics can move people, conform to the principles of musical aesthetics, etc.
From hearing the first sentence 'If pride is not coldly photographed by the sea of reality, how can you understand that you have to work hard to get far away', Zhou Yuanyuan's heart was shocked.
As an art school graduate without much experience, working as a screenwriter and director for the first time, the whole short film is full of a lot of her own shadows, and to a certain extent, the heroine in this film is herself.
Of course, what is kind, brave and strong...... How these personalities manifest themselves is a matter of opinion.
The first lyrics made her have mixed feelings. Over the years, a person has been helpless, in this cold big city, he has experienced setbacks again and again, suffered hardships, but stubbornly and tenaciously persevered, in order to realize his ideals and ambitions, for the injustice in his chest, put on a hard and cold pride mask, and walked into the distance step by step with difficulty and perseverance.
At this moment, she even had the illusion that Zhao Zejun's song, like Miss Xia at the beginning, was specially created for one person.
Last time, it was for Xia Yubing, and this time, it was for her.
knew that this was impossible, but Zhou Yuanyuan preferred to tell herself that this song was written for her and should belong to her.
When you hear, 'How can you know that a person who is persistent has invisible wings...... How can you return halfway to the place you want to go to...... When she realized her true desire and was able to reach heaven, Zhou Yuanyuan's heart was even more aggrieved.
Over the years, there have been misunderstandings, affections, mistakes and regrets, but no one has ever really understood her. No matter what others think of her and arbitrarily evaluate what she does, only she knows in her heart that everything is to chase her dreams.
After listening to the first part, Zhou Yuanyuan has already determined that it is impossible to find a more suitable theme song than this song.
It can even be said that this song was not born for her short film, on the contrary, her short film is to set off the song.
Zhen Hanqiang and a few people listened to it on the side, and completely dispelled the idea of 'waiting for the surname Zhao to finish singing, and then ridicule him'.
This idea is ridiculous.
Even without background accompaniment, just listening to the cappella, the lyrics and melody already prove the quality of the song.
In line with Zhou Yuanyuan's short film, there is no doubt about this, as long as the brain is not bad, no one will make a fuss about it.
What's more, the mood of this song is very good.
It's a story in itself. A story of persisting in dreams and struggling endlessly.
The rarest thing about this song, which sounds like it, is not sad.
People are more dead than people, and goods have to be thrown away.
Zhen Hanqiang wrote a song for Zhou Yuanyuan, and after Zhou Yuanyuan listened to it, she said it was very good, but she didn't adopt it. Zhen Hanqiang took this song to his teacher, a well-known music critic in the industry.
After listening to it, the other party thought that there were two big problems with his song, one was that he was too sad, and the other was that he moaned without illness.
"Inspirational is not despair, but in the midst of difficult times, always full of hope for the future. To put it bluntly, motivate people. If you listen to this song, people will only be bored and feel dead. Zhen Hanqiang remembered the teacher's comments very clearly.
Later, he changed the side to a relaxed style, and when the teacher heard it, he laughed again.
The second draft is not desperate, but it is too jumpy, and I can't feel the suffering in the struggle at all, but it is more like a noisy DJ dance music, which is suitable for playing in the disco bar.
In the end, the teacher said, 'It's not entirely a matter of ability, you're still too young, you've had a smooth life since you were a child, you don't have enough life experience, and it's normal that you can't write moving things.'"
And Zhao Zejun's 'original dream', the style of the song is lively but not frivolous, that is, it writes about the hardships to be experienced in life, and is full of hope for the future.
As a young person, it sounds very relatable.
Zhen Hanqiang now believes that this peer who sings in the studio is really 'Mr. Zhao'. The average college student has no life experience and can't write such a thing.
After Zhao Zejun finished singing, he took off his headphones and walked out of the recording studio, and as soon as he went out, he saw Zhou Yuanyuan and the three boys looking at him with excitement on their faces.
"How ......"
Without waiting for him to finish, Zhen Hanqiang couldn't wait to ask, "Zhao ...... Mr. Zhao, do you have any accompaniment? ”
"Is the lyrics and melody okay?" Zhao Zejun asked Zhou Yuanyuan.
Zhou Yuanyuan pursed her lips and looked at Zhao Zejun with a smile, "I've really found the right person." ”
"I'm sorry just now, I take back what I just said, this song is great!" Zhen Hanqiang also said.
"Actually, it's not my original. Zhao Zejun smiled and said: "This is an adaptation, the original song is an RB song, called 'Riding on the back of the silver dragon'." There won't be an infringement problem, right?"
Theoretically, there is, but in practice, there really isn't.
Unless this song is popular all over the country, it is certain that it will be known by the original creator of RB.
If you know, you may not be able to sue, and even if you sue, you may not be able to win, and even if you win, the follow-up is very troublesome.
All in all, infringement is everywhere in the country, and according to the current general policy, the 'take-it-or-leave-it' doctrine can be said to be 'infringing on the order of the whole country'.
The recording studio can access the Internet, and after a little search on the Internet from the center console, I found the original singer and accompaniment of this song, and Zhao Zejun sang it again with the accompaniment.
The second time she listened to the song was not as shocking as the first time, Zhou Yuanyuan held her arms and stood in front of the center console, looking at Zhen Hanqiang with a smile while listening.
The corners of Zhen Hanqiang's mouth twitched, but he didn't squeak.
The difficulty of adaptation is actually greater than that of the original. In the framework that the other party already has, exert your creativity, not only to conform to the original framework, but also to have your own new things.
Moreover, this is a short film soundtrack specially for Zhou Yuanyuan, which is not only restricted by the original work, but also receives the prophet of the content of the short film, which is equivalent to having a two-layer framework, and the difficulty of 1+1 is greater than 2.
Zhen Hanqiang, who has always regarded himself as a talent, asked himself if he had this ability, looking at the entire art school, few students could do this. Some professional teachers may be able to, but it is only limited to the form, and it is difficult to say whether they can really impress people.
"This person also studied music?" Sun Bai asked Zhou Yuanyuan in a low voice.
Zhou Yuanyuan didn't squint, looked at the corner of Zhao Zejun's mouth who was singing inside through the glass window, and said lightly: "Didn't you say it, it's Mr. Zhao." He started his own company, music, and played tickets. ”
"Huh?!"
Sun Bai and several people looked at each other, and there was a feeling of unspeakable depression in their hearts, and they all played like this, how could they, the 'professionals', mix?
