Chapter 18 Upload to the Internet
The recording equipment is ready-made, and Yuan Zelang can operate it himself, the only thing that makes him a little entangled is what to choose to sing this first song. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
He has too many excellent songs in his previous life in his head, but it doesn't mean that excellent songs will necessarily be popular, and there needs to be a certain element of luck.
Time, place, people, and these mysterious things are very important to a singer.
Yuan Zelang remembered that he heard Alan Tam say something in his previous life, and someone told him that so-and-so singer sang very well and worked hard, but why was he not popular?
Alan Tam replied: This industry is different from other industries, the most important thing is not how hard you work and how talented you are, but to have good luck. Of course, corruption and hard work will save you a lot of detours on the road to red, but it is still good luck to want to be popular. Maybe when luck comes, you'll become popular by doing nothing.
This remark contains a little subjective component, but Yuan Zelang also agrees with it very much, because wasn't his previous life a good example?
He works very hard, and his talent is not bad, but he is too unlucky to meet a cheating company, and he has been directly hidden in the snow for 7 years, so what a fart?
So Yuan Zelang didn't plan to make his song popular, and after thinking about it, he decided to choose to try it with "Seventeen-Year-Old Rainy Season".
The song "Seventeen-Year-Old Rainy Season" is not only in line with his current age, but also in line with the current popular theme of the Chinese music scene in this time and space.
"Seventeen-year-old rainy season" is one of Lin Zhiying's masterpieces, and it is also his famous song, after his debut on February 28, 1992, Lin Zhiying became popular all over the Chinese-speaking world in 2 months, and then swept all over Asia with a whirlwind, known as "Asian Little Whirlwind", and opened a world tour one year after his debut, which can be called a miracle in the entertainment industry.
After his debut album, he released two more albums in the same year, with an astonishingly high density of releases. At the same time, he also went to Hong Kong to make movies, and successively cooperated with big names such as Brigitte Lam, Maggie Cheung, Michelle Yeoh, Tony Leung, Jacky Cheung, Wong Cho-yin, Leung Ka-fai, Donnie Yen, etc., and held four solo concerts in Hung Hom the following year.
Until Yuan Zelang crossed into this world, he was still the record holder of the youngest singer in the Red Pavilion.
The reason why Lin Zhiying was able to rise so quickly, one of the title songs of the first album, "Seventeen-year-old Rainy Season", can be said to have made a great contribution, Yuan Zelang did not dare to guarantee that he would be popular if he uploaded this song, but he felt that he had a great chance of becoming popular if he uploaded this song.
He doesn't want to copy anyone's path to success, and it is impossible to copy anyone's path to success, but he can use the excellent work resources of his previous life to make himself as little detour as possible.
Thinking about this, Yuan Zelang began to really get started, first arranging, and then recording.
These are all familiar things for Yuan Zelang, and it is not much difficult to operate, and the only thing that takes some time is recording.
Although his singing skills are good, he always tells himself that if he can sing the meaning of the lyrics with the most authentic voice, he will never mix this singing skill.
So when recording, he took a little time to adjust his emotions and fully integrate himself into the artistic conception of the lyrics and melody before starting to record.
But even so, Yuan Zelang tossed back and forth more than a dozen times before he was completely satisfied with his performance.
That's how he treats music, he keeps improving, and he can't afford a grain of sand in his eyes.
Once the recording is complete, the production of a song is reduced to post-production.
But don't underestimate this post-production, a song from recording to forming a finished product is a process, although every link in the process is quite important, but the most noteworthy is the post-production mixing part!
From the fact that the proportion of post-production is more than 50% of the finished song, it can be seen that post-production is important to a song.
Post-mixing is a very monotonous and tedious thing, there are many things that need to be done, and a series of tedious steps to reduce noise, motivate the vocals, suppress the limit, enhance the strength and expressiveness of the vocals, reverberation, etc., are extremely energy-consuming and time-consuming.
However, Yuan Zelang is not tired of this, on the contrary, he is still faintly excited, because as long as he can present a song in the most perfect form in front of everyone, so that everyone can be moved, happy, and happy after listening to it, he feels that no matter how much effort he puts in, it is worth it.
It can be said that Yuan Zelang was immersed in the thrill of making songs for most of the day, so much so that he even forgot to eat lunch.
It wasn't until he recovered from that obsession that he felt hungry and tired.
But fortunately, after nearly 6 hours of struggle, "Rainy Season of Teenagers" was finally completed.
Yuan Zelang walked out of the recording studio, looked in the refrigerator, and found that there were some apples in it, so he picked one up and nibbled on it, took another bottle of milk, and came to the study while drinking.
Yuan Zelang turned on the computer while nibbling on an apple, planning to upload the finished "Seventeen-Year-Old Rainy Season" to the Internet now.
He learned about it before, the music players in this world are basically the same as in the previous life, QQ Music and Kugou Music are the most popular, the two music players with the most users. So Yuan Zelang is also ready to upload his own "Seventeen-year-old Rainy Season" to these two players.
Although there are a lot of songs uploaded on these two players, the chances of his songs being buried will also be high.
But because of this, he also has a better chance of success.
Just imagine, if you can fight your way out of the vast number of songs, does that mean that the song is fully recognized by fans?
For a singer, the recognition of fans is the most important thing, because the profession itself is a profession that relies on the fan economy to survive.
Only when the fans approve of him will he consume your works, fans are God, with the support of fans, you can become popular, luxury houses, famous cars, everything you want come from it.
Of course, if you say that what you do when making music is feelings, and you are making music with your hobby, then you should think that you don't see the above. Because then you don't need to look at anyone's face, you don't need to give face to anyone, you just have to follow your own heart.
But most of such people are miserable.
After uploading the song and gnawing the apple, Yuan Zelang felt that he was a little sleepy, so he left the study and returned to his room.
Seeing that the time was still early, it was only four o'clock in the afternoon, there was still a period of time before eating, and Bu Qianqian had not come back yet, so he decided to use this time to take a nap and get up later to see how the singers reacted to "Seventeen-Year-Old Rainy Season".
