Chapter 088: Reasonable Negotiation

If you want to say why Ye Jinglan has to pull Xia Bai, it is because composition and arrangement are two different things, she can copy the composition, but she is not capable of arranging.

Composition is to write the melody of singing, and arranging is to write the melody of other accompaniment instruments, many song adaptations are often sung without the melody moving, and the accompaniment instrument is changed, there will be a dance music version, a rock version, a jazz version, a rap version, a small fresh version, a Chinese style version and so on.

Arrangement is to give a song a mood, different arrangement styles, different moods, give people very different feelings, which requires the arranger to have a considerable familiarity with the music style and the performance of various instruments in order to make this mood table to the fullest, and the lack of arrangement only lyrics of the song, just like those who sing on the street, a guitar plays and sings by itself, just like this feeling.

However, there are very few songs that only need one or two instruments, especially when making zuò accompaniment, Ye Jinglan can either raise a band and record it together, or she can only find a good arrangement.

What to compile, what timbre to use, what key to use, what chords to use, how to transpose, how to make up the intro, how to make the main song, how to make the chorus, how to make the interlude, how to make the solo, how to make the ending, how to make the chorus, what effect you want to use when mixing, all have to be measured, this is what the arranger has to do.

Unfortunately, the arrangers do not receive royalty income, and the media almost never promotes the arrangers.

Many behind-the-scenes heroes have not been known, in fact, many popular pop songs have made this song popular because of excellent arrangement, many people who don't know the truth think that the singer sings the red, in fact, the singer is just the last link in the music system, a good song makes anyone sing it can be popular, as long as the singer's level is not bad.

As far as Ye Jinglan knows, this Mr. Xia Bai is such a god-level arranger master in later generations.

Ye Jinglan's words stopped Xia Bai, in fact, he had a lot of opportunities, but because he was unwilling, even if he recommended others to go, he was unwilling to let go of his insistence.

"Girl, although I don't know what kind of reason you have, but you can afford me, and if you have any good works in the future, you can bring them over!" Xia Bai chuckled, and when he saw his old friend's anxious expression, he continued, "But to make money, you have to rely on this Huang Zuò." ”

Hearing this, Huang Zhansen breathed a sigh of relief, there is no meat to eat, and it is good to have soup to drink.

But the future is still far away, and he must win these two songs today, "It's easy to talk about making money, eat first, eat, let's talk about it when we're full." ”

It's just that Huang Zhansen, who is calm, has also improved his emotional intelligence a lot, knowing that people take food as the sky, even if they have to eat before they talk about important things.

Fortunately, Xiang Shaofan bought a lot of things in order to let Ye Jinglan eat more, and he didn't miss many people to eat.

It stands to reason that Xiang Shaofan should express his dissatisfaction with this person who suddenly appeared, but he is thinking about things now, thinking that since Ye Jinglan loves to write songs and love music, will he open a media company in the future?

But Xiang Shaofan's thoughts are all later, and now he is not the protagonist, and no one asks him for his opinion.

After having lunch in a hurry, Feng Shuang took the lead in speaking under Ye Jinglan's hint: "Teacher Huang, I know that my strength is not yet able to control this song, although this song can make me shine in the competition, but everyone is for this song, but it will not be because of me." ”

"So I'm willing to give this song to Mr. Huang, but I hope that Mr. Huang can take me as an apprentice, and I want to participate in the Hong Kong Island Rookie Singing Contest next year."

This is what Ye Jinglan secretly told herself when she went to the bathroom just now, she said that she could still write the song for herself without it, this is an opportunity to seize it.

After all, the competition in the mainland is not comparable to that on Hong Kong Island, the competition in the mainland is divided into professional and amateur groups, and it is also divided into bel canto, ethnic and popular, pop songs do not have much advantage in it, not to mention, and those who come out of it may not be able to get a good contract.

It's just that Hong Kong Island hasn't returned yet, and they didn't have the opportunity to participate, but now with Huang Zhansen, it's different, if Feng Shuang can become Huang Zhansen's apprentice, then it should be no problem to participate in a competition!

Just now at dinner, Ye Jinglan found out Huang Zhansen's identity, he has been making music on Hong Kong Island since he came back from studying abroad, and has made a lot of well-known soundtracks and songs, and a few years ago, he became the music production director of a famous record company on Hong Kong Island.

In his words, although music is good, he enjoys the process of mastery more, which means that his dreams are slowly changing.

"Participate in the rookie singing contest!" Hearing that he was asking for apprenticeship, Huang Zhansen just wanted to say that it was no problem, but Feng Shuang was a little difficult to participate in the competition again.

"What's wrong? Still doesn't work? Can't participate? Feng Shuang suddenly became very lost, many of the singers she liked came out of that competition.

"It's not that you can't participate, it's just, alas, it's okay to sue you." Huang Zhansen sighed and thought for a while before making up his mind and said.

"This competition is organized by Hong Kong Island Radio and our sworn enemy, Huaxing Records, if you want to be my student where to compete, I'm afraid I won't get any benefits."

Every circle has its own rules, and people hold competitions to cultivate talents for themselves, whether they sign an acting contract or a record company, they are all for their own good, and there is no reason to give other people's artists and students to boost their arrogance.

Huang Zhansen can be said to be a well-known figure in the Hong Kong Island music scene, and if Feng Shuang becomes his student, the benefits and disadvantages are immediate.

"It's okay, I just want to see it, as long as I can compete, as for the rankings, I don't have too much hope." When Feng Shuang heard that there was still a play, he hurriedly expressed his attitude, and it was good to participate.

"Hmph, how can I be so unambitious as my apprentice, let me tell you! My requirements are very high, if you are afraid of hardship, difficulty, and criticism, it is better for Cen to give up early. As soon as he heard Feng Shuang's unambitious words, Huang Zhansen was unhappy at first.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, as long as the teacher is willing to teach, I will study hard, study seriously, and never embarrass you." If Feng Shuang was usual in the past, he would have refuted it well, just now it was obvious that you couldn't please what you said, and now she said that she had no ambition, but this is not usual after all, it is related to her future fate.

"If you want me to say Mr. Huang, you don't have to worry, after all, the competition is co-organized, and there is also the radio station! I believe that your relationship must be no worse than Huaxing's, and our Xiao Shuangchang is not bad, maybe if you don't get it right, you will be picked to film! ”

To be honest, although Feng Shuang usually dresses up like a tomboy, her facial features are actually better than herself, so in Ye Jinglan's opinion, relying on Huang Zhansen's relationship, it is not difficult for her to go to filming. (To be continued.) )
