Chapter 88: Staying up late will have dark circles

On Tuesday afternoon, He Yu flew to Jiangdong City. She was alone, dragging a shiny silver Renoir suitcase, and she came like this, not even an assistant.

As soon as He Yu arrived, Fang Yan's plan was completely messed up. He played the piano for Qian Ning's grandfather, didn't broadcast live at night, took the score to accompany the diva superstar to dinner, and went back to the hotel together.

"Yaoyao, it's time to go to bed at nine o'clock, ......" In the hotel room, she and her 7-year-old adopted daughter Yaoyao video.

In another room of the suite, Fang Yan held his guitar and sent a WeChat message to Yuan Yuan: "I think she is stimulated." She said she would be performing on Saturday. She's crazy. ”

Yuan Yuan replied: "Sister Xiaoyu is so good! ”

Again: "She's so nice! ”

“……”

He Yu watched the album written by Fang Yan and killed it the next day.

She is happy with the new album.

For this reason, the Victorian company held a special meeting, which caused a heated debate. He Yu is the most important artist in the company, and her team and company executives feel cautious about the new album.

The first is that the style of the song is very out of tune with her personal temperament. Moreover, the songs in the album "First Night" are all retro rock style, which has long been outdated. What's more, choosing to perform in a tavern is unreliable to listen to.

The risk is too great.

In the world of music, it's ultimately the work that speaks. The new album is not child's play, and once it is messed up, the status of the diva will be unstable.

Chen Jihai also objected, mainly from a musical point of view, thinking that these songs were too rough and needed to be polished. In such a hurry, no one knows the result.

"You all agree?" He Yu leaned back on the chair, tiptoed to the ground, gently turned the chair, and looked around at everyone.

“……”

"Okay, give me a week." She finished and tapped on the table.

It's set.

He Yu has regained her character of daring to fight 10 years ago. Once you have identified a path, you have to rush to the end. She was confident that she would be able to sing the songs within a week. She has the right to speak, and her attitude is so resolute that the company has to give in.

Fang Yan heard a black line and said, "So, you want to practice a bunch of songs in 3 days, record them on Saturday, and continue the tour on Sunday?" ”

"Yes."

"What if it's too ugly and swollen?"

"Then make an EP [mini-album]." He Yu said, his eyes were full of confidence.

Fang Yan was more skeptical of He Yu's ability. The level of this eldest sister is no longer as good as before, and it is an impossible task to digest 9 songs in just 3 days.

He didn't have enough for dinner, so he dug out all kinds of food in the hotel refrigerator, and finally tore a box of instant noodles, boiled it in boiling water, and snorted and began to eat.

He Yu smiled and watched him eat instant noodles and said, "I'm also thinking about you." Don't you want to participate in the "Chinese Singer" competition in July, you must always prepare in advance. ”

"Prepare what?"

"Song. What song are you going to sing in the audition? ”

“……”

"I'll tell you, don't underestimate the audition, I've heard that many companies have prepared secret weapons to make a splash during the audition."

"Sister Xiaoyu, don't you participate in "Chinese Singer"?" Fang Yan asked. After the recruitment of "Chinese Singer" was launched, news of famous singers participating in the competition broke out every day, setting off a wave of heat on the Internet. hasn't started broadcasting yet, and the show has become a hot mess.

"Resolutely don't participate, my strength is not enough."

"That's just as well."

He Yu's face turned red and said, "Hurry up and eat!" ”

Fang Yan suddenly had a thought. Yang Zhenyu, Yu Haiyang and Ding Bo all signed up, and he felt that it was no problem for Yu Haiyang to pass the audition. What if you help Yang Zhenyu prepare? Maybe he'll be able to get by. Dingbo is still a little close.

Fang Yan swept the strings and played a simple rhythm, which was the prelude to the fourth song of the album, "Irrational". Among the 9 songs, it has the most regular rhythm and low difficulty.

E, A, G, C, discordant major third chords, four sets of threes filled the room, angry and brutal. The Martin guitar roared violently, and the metallic tone of the strings shimmered. After the prelude, the accompaniment was muffled, and He Yu began to sing.

"I won't peek at your soul, and you won't peek at mine. This is us, we have no soul. ”

"I will not take away your freedom, and you will not take away mine. This is us, we have no freedom. ”

……

In fact, this is also a little yellow song, but He Yu didn't find it. After each lyric is sung, Fang Yan's guitar will sound like lightning, play a bright melody, and then go down.

After singing a song "Irrationality", He Yu was not very satisfied. She thought for a moment and said, "You go to that house." ”

"Huh?"

"I'm nervous if you stay here, I can't sing well."

"Oh......"

Fang Yan went to another room, He Yu played the guitar by himself, slowed down and sang again, the effect was much better.

In the concert before, He Yu's performance was very good. Now there are only two people in the room, one plays the piano and the other sings, but He Yu's voice can't cover the guitar. Her voice...... Not as good as a guitar.

After taking a sip of water, He Yu's voice turned on and went through all 9 new songs. After all, she is a professional singer, and she quickly found some feelings, picking up a pen from time to time to write and draw.

The second time, Fang Yan no longer played the piano hard, but simply plucked the strings slowly, and He Yu no longer sang hard, but read out the lyrics sentence by sentence along with the rhythm, chattering.

It's very troublesome to record a song.

On February 17, 1966, god-like rock guru Bob Dylan recorded a blasting song called "Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again." Mobile is not a car, it is a place name). In the studio, he recorded 20 times in one go.

This song was recorded by the band at the same time, recorded for 3 hours, and the arrangement and style of each time were constantly changing, and finally in the album, it was the 20th time, the last version.

After Bob Dylan won the 2016 Nobel Prize in Literature, there was a wave of popularity in the Chinese media. Some pretending articles say that he writes first-class songs and sings third-rate...... It's complete nonsense, dare you say it.

Rapping alone, Bob Dylan's level is invincible, and he is definitely the top singer.

He Yu is far behind. She sang until 12 o'clock in the evening, and her physical strength was very exertional, but she still hadn't found her senses, and she was rather deflated. It was already late, and Fang Yan was ready to go home.

"I'm old, I can't stay up all night." She yawned.

"You sleep well."

"Stone, you leave the guitar here, I'll sing it for a while."

"Okay."

The limited edition Martin guitar is also gone. He Yu said that she didn't plan to go out these days, so she studied the songs in her hotel room.

Fang Yan looked at her with a serious look on her face, and suddenly felt that she was very charming. It's strange that this is the first time the two have been alone, but there is a sense of estrangement.

Outside, there was a breeze in the night sky, and small, dense raindrops fell silently with the wind. The sweltering heat of the previous day is long gone. Fang Yan took a taxi back to the hut and found that Yuan Yuan was actually at home. This girl didn't say a word when she came.

She was lying on the bed, her body in a big letter, and she was sleeping.

The breeze hurried into the window, and the room was cool. Fang Yan turned off the light, carefully helped her take off her clothes and socks, and covered her with a thin quilt.

Yuan Yuan woke up a little, turned over, and asked inarticulate in the dark, "Bad guy, do you like me?" ”

"I like it."

"That's good."

Fang Yan hugged Yuan Yuan from behind and said, "God He Yu is staying up all night singing." ”

"Staying up late will have dark circles under your eyes."
