Chapter 59 of the text volume
Next chapter
Huacheng is the base camp of Chinese pop music, gathering a group of creators who love pop music, because of the relaxed creative environment and the channels to contact different types of music from the outside world.
When pop music first came to China, it was called "the sound of the glamour".
In that era when "single-mindedly engaged in construction" was advocated, this kind of music was considered to be a big poisonous weed that consumed the fighting spirit of the working people and had a low-level and vulgar content.
The lyrics of love and love, and the melody that made people's bones soft, brought a huge impact to the Chinese people, and at the same time, they naturally became the object of criticism, believing that this was a new method used by foreign reactionary forces to try to corrupt the Chinese people.
Nowadays, although the spread of pop music is no longer prohibited in China, the old concept still exists, and pop music is still a symbol of vulgarity in the eyes of many people.
In the music industry in China, pop music is considered to be unprofessional, and traditional bel canto singing is the right way and art.
If Lin Zixuan takes the path of a singer, Lin Boqing and Zheng Xiulian will definitely oppose it.
In fact, bel canto singing and popular singing are like big hotels and roadside stalls, each with its own way of eating, and with the development of the times, the rise of pop music has become inevitable.
Founded in 1984, Huacheng New Trend Audio-Visual Company is a subsidiary of Huacheng Cultural Bureau, which is equivalent to an affiliated relationship.
Enterprises like this with a government background and a large independent management right are more common in this era, and similar to the Beijing Television Art Center, they are all an attempt, but Huacheng went earlier and further.
Huacheng TV has cooperated with New Trend Company many times, and Chen Changle is very familiar with them.
The songs in the TV series are important and important, and they are not important if they are not important.
The audience mainly looks at the plot when watching TV dramas, listening to songs is just incidental, and it is rare to remember the songs after watching TV series, but a song that is highly consistent with the storyline can leave a deep impression on the audience and improve the grade of the TV series.
This is a test of the songwriter's ability.
The script of "Alien Girl" has long been sent to the new trend audio-visual company, and they have to write songs according to the storyline.
New Trend takes this very seriously, and it is said that the TV series will most likely be broadcast on Huaguo TV, which is undoubtedly a good opportunity, and the company is preparing to launch two new singers.
If "Alien Girl" can cause a national sensation, then these two singers can also be well-known by the people of the whole country.
Mao Ning and Zhang Yingying are the contracted singers of New Trend Company and are the key training objects.
Generally speaking, the organizational relationship between singers and actors in China is attached to the unit, such as the art troupe or art group in various places, while the contracted singer belongs to the company and is a contract system.
In this era, those who have an establishment have an iron rice bowl, and they cannot be dismissed at will, unless they make a serious mistake.
The contract system is not insured, and as long as the contract is violated, you may be dismissed, and you will act in accordance with the contract.
This model is borrowed from the music companies of Hong Kong and Baodao.
The advantage is to avoid personnel troubles, operate professionally, focus on interests, praise singers who can make money, dismiss singers who can't make money, and let the market make decisions.
The disadvantage is the lack of human touch, it is all a relationship of interest, once the singer becomes popular, he may change jobs, and whoever gives more money will go to whichever one.
Lin Zixuan and Chen Changle listened to the tapes that had been recorded.
Chen Changle doesn't know much about music, but as a producer, he has a good grasp of the relationship between music and TV series, and he frowned after listening to it, feeling wrong.
Zhang Yingying's voice is sweet and pure, which is very suitable for singing sweet songs.
New Trend Company also plans to let her take the sweet song route, and this song is like this, the song is good, but it is too soothing and sweet.
"Alien Girl" is a drama dominated by women, and the different life fates of the sisters who come out to work are shown in the play.
The ups and downs, life is full of variety, which is sad and lamentable.
The song should carry the sadness and helplessness of life, rather than a simple sweet song, and the new trend company obviously pays more attention to the image of its singers, and does not think too much about the plot of the TV series.
Chen Changle and Lin Zixuan glanced at each other, and he glanced at Lin Zixuan.
The two have been working together for more than half a month and have a certain understanding of each other, and Lin Zixuan understands that this is to make himself a villain.
Chen Changle is a native of Huacheng, and has cooperated with the new trend company, it is not good to refuse directly, Lin Zixuan is a foreigner, it doesn't matter if he talks about it, this is a singing red face, a singing white face.
"What does Brother Lin think?" asked Chen Changle.
"The style and lyrics of this song are good, and Miss Zhang's voice is good, it is a good song, but it is a little out of tune with the plot of the TV series, and I always feel that something is missing. Lin Zixuan said euphemistically.
"I feel the same way when you say that. Chen Changle cooperated, "Brother Lin is from the capital and is the producer of this drama, do you have any other songs?"
The two vetoed the song, and the people from the New Trend Company couldn't say anything, so they could only continue to create.
Lin Zixuan returned to the guest house, thought about it, and decided to write the theme song of "Alien Girl" in his memory.
He is not a person who likes to meddle around, such as "Desire", he wrote the script, and he did not participate in the follow-up production, because Huaguo TV has its own production team, including music creation and so on.
If he interferes, he will be suspected of stealing other people's jobs, and he may seem to be very capable and talented, but he will definitely be hated.
To be a man, you must make more friends and make fewer enemies, so that you can go further and further.
It's the same this time, he came to Huacheng mainly to cooperate with Chen Changle to make "Alien Girl", and he didn't plan to meddle in other things, in case Chen Changle and the new trend company had interests to do so.
He wrote songs rashly, which made it seem that the new trend company had no strength, and it might also destroy the cooperative relationship with Chen Changle.
When two people work together, they need to consider each other's feelings, and they are not in a competitive relationship.
Now Chen Changle is also dissatisfied with the tunes of the New Trend Company, and Lin Zixuan wants to finish the production of "Alien Girl" as soon as possible, so that he can return to the capital, so that he can write the songs in his memory.
Besides, this is related to the task assigned by Li Hong.
This time I came to Huacheng, and there was no eyebrow to find investment, which is understandable, after all, the investment environment in Huacheng is chaotic, and if you are too gullible, it is easy to be deceived.
But if even the TV series is a mess, then it can't be said.
A classic song can add a lot of color to the TV series, since Lin Zixuan is in charge of the production of "Alien Girl", he must strive for perfection as much as possible and give Li Hong a complete explanation.
Two days later, he came to Huacheng New Trend Audio-Visual Company with the written lyrics and songs, and found the person in charge of the company and Zhang Yingying.
"Miss Zhang, please try singing according to this tune. Lin Zixuan demanded.
Zhang Yingying looked at it, this is a brief score of a song, the song is called "I Don't Want to Say", she looked at the manager of the company, and the manager nodded.
Zhang Yingying looked at the simple score and sang along with the tune.
"I don't want to say I'm kind, I don't want to say I'm pure, but I can't refuse the feeling in my heart. Look at the cute day touching the real face, I can understand your feelings......"
At this moment, she didn't realize that she was going to be popular all over China. For mobile phone users, please visit wènhttp://mnet
