Chapter 44: Becoming Famous

Just when Jiang Lin and Xia Bing were busy, Hanhai Records couldn't wait to announce that Jiang Lin, the creator of "Loyal to the Country" and "The Bride Is Not Me", would serve as the producer of Li Man's new album, music director Yu Weijie said that Jiang Lin is a talented musical genius, although he is only 17 years old, his own talent is undoubted, and the two sides will work closely together to create a new album for Li Man.

Isn't this nonsense? As soon as the news came out, the entire Chinese music scene was in an uproar, what to do, to let a seventeen-year-old young man serve as an album producer, jokes, what is the producer, the producer is the soul of an album, just like the director of a film and television drama, its record concept and production technology will directly affect the style of a record and the transmission of the singer's personality, and ultimately affect the market, for an album, the quality of the producer determines the success or failure of the album 50% in a certain process.

It is precisely because the role of the producer is so important that the record company has always attached great importance to the selection of the producer, and often invites the big-name producer to escort the album, of course, it is not necessary to find a big name, the big-name producer is experienced and stable, but the music may be a little old-fashioned, and sometimes it is more innovative to use a new producer.

In fact, many big-name zuò people became suò people for the first time in their twenties, and many of them were in their twenties. The female work is a blockbuster, but the problem is that seventeen years old is too young, well, Jiang Lin can write songs, and the writing is not bad, but does he have time to systematically learn album making? Does he know how hard it is to tailor songs and albums to the characteristics of the singers?

Of course, there are also people in the industry who see through what Hanhai Records' idea is, which is nothing more than hype, and a reason for inviting big-name producers to produce albums, and for a while they are quite curious about how Hanhai Records operates, and what kind of ending will this hype end up with?

It's lively in the circle, and it's even more lively outside the circle, but for the vast majority of ordinary people, they don't know what kind of concept the maker is about, and their understanding of the maker is completely stuck in a simple text introduction, and therefore, they naturally don't feel that it is ridiculous to be the album producer at the age of seventeen, but they are stimulated by the gimmick in the middle of the gimmick.

Who has not had the yearning to become a genius, and therefore, whenever the word genius appears, it can always arouse people's interest and attention, under the packaging of Hanhai Records, Jiang Lin is a talented musical genius, and Li Man is a natural singer who loves singing, with the packaging of genius, coupled with the fierce propaganda offensive deliberately created, Jiang Lin and Li Man's popularity has risen sharply.

What's more, thanks to the excellent quality of the songs "Loyal to the Country" and "The Bride Is Not Me", after listening to the two songs, a lot of people have turned into fans of the two, Jiang Lin is okay, after all, he is behind the scenes, and there is not even a positive photo on the report, but Li Man is a fan The number of fans has increased significantly, which has successfully attracted people's sense of expectation for his new album.

And a lot of things are happening around the two of them.

Rongcheng, the office building where the cultural tourism channel of Bashu TV station is located, is indoors for a post-editing system.

"Yuxin, during this time, you are sitting next to me and watching me do it, there is my explanation in the process of operation, I think you already have an understanding of my daily work, just looking at it is not enough, you must also get started, this time you will add sound and subtitles to this good video, and then add a background picture" In front of the computer, Zhang Bei said to Xie Yuxin beside him with a smile.

"I understand Sister Zhang, it's just that I'm not very familiar with the software in Taiwan, not only will the speed be relatively slow, but it is also easy to make mistakes." Xie Yuxin said worriedly.

Half a month has passed since the internship at Bashu TV Station, although she is a major in broadcasting and hosting art, but after coming to the TV station, she was not directly arranged to learn to host, but as a post-editor internship, according to the meaning of the station, she must first be an internship as a post-editor, and then engage in intern reporter work, and finally the host internship, if all aspects of the internship are qualified, and finally have the opportunity to stay in Bashu TV after graduation.

As a student majoring in broadcasting and hosting arts, the knowledge of broadcasting and hosting is undoubtedly the focus of learning, but the simple program editing in the editing and directing profession is also involved, but it is only involved, compared with the software application of the TV station, her technical level can only be regarded as a surface, after coming to the post-editing internship, she is not less amazed at Zhang Bei's editing speed, keying, editing, adding sound and subtitles, and can complete a simple program in less than an hour, and be herself. A 30-minute clip can take a day to remove invalid footage and audio, as well as add subtitles.

"It's okay, take your time, who didn't come over like this, do more, learn more, use your brains, and you will naturally be able to apply it skillfully." Zhang Bei smiled gently.

"That's good Sister Zhang." Xie Yuxin nodded with relief, looked at the computer in front of him, with a determined light in his eyes, and then began to add sound subtitles to a video on the computer according to what he saw during this time.

Two hours later.

"I looked like I was worried before, isn't that good? However, some places can indeed do better, look at it, such as the good ones here, just here, it's time to eat, take a good rest at noon, and have a program system in the afternoon, don't drop the chain when the time comes. Zhang Bei said with a smile.

Xie Yuxin's eyes lit up suddenly, and she hurriedly said, "I know Sister Zhang." ”

Speaking of which, although she was arranged to do post-editing internship at the beginning, but after following Zhang Bei, she had no complaints about the arrangement in the station, and even she herself did not expect that Zhang Bei, who guided her, would be fully responsible for a program. is not only limited to post-editing production, as long as it is the content involved by Zhang Bei, she can follow and learn.

After completing a hands-on practice, and soon having the opportunity to participate in the program system, Xie Yuxin walked out of the post-production room briskly.

The sound of the mobile phone vibrating suddenly came from the bag, and after taking out the mobile phone and seeing the caller ID on it, the smile on Xie Yuxin's face became brighter and brighter, and just after answering the phone, before she could say anything, Hu Tao's excited voice came.

"Hey, Xinxin, did you see Jiang Lin making an entertainment report on album production, this guy usually doesn't move, and when there is movement, he immediately cries ghosts and gods!"

Xie Yuxin was slightly stunned, and then shook his head: "No, what album is made by zuò people?" ”

"Didn't you see it? Okay, but as a future host, how can you not keep an eye on all kinds of hot news? It's not going to work. Seizing the opportunity, Hu Tao said in a serious tone.

"Don't make a fuss, tell me what's going on?" Xie Yuxin, who has long been accustomed to the personality of her best friend, scolded with a smile.

"Xinxin, you definitely can't imagine that Jiang Lin will be the album producer at such a young age, Hanhai Records announced not long ago that Jiang Lin will be the producer of Li Man's new album, that is, the girl who sang "The Bride Is Not Me", you know? Jiang Lin is now regarded as a talented musical genius. Hu Tao grinned.

"Oh, yes, he's a musical genius." Xie Yuxin smiled.

In terms of quality alone, there are undoubtedly many better songs in this world than "Jing Zhong Serving the Country" and "The Bride Is Not Me", if it is placed on a musician in his thirties and forties, the evaluation that can be obtained is nothing more than "good", but when the creator is a seventeen-year-old young man, this qiē naturally becomes different, and it is completely worthy of the evaluation of a genius, but before that, as a behind-the-scenes musician, without Hanhai Records to promote publicity, Jiang Lin has been in a state of lack of interest.

"Ha, now it's up to him to make the album, if the album gets good results, it can barely meet the standard of this girl's meal ticket." Hu Tao pretended to be excited.

"Get out, Jiang Lin is my cousin's classmate, you don't feel ashamed, I feel ashamed." Xie Yuxin scolded with a smile again.

Hanging up the phone, Xie Yuxin shook her head with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, she didn't have a good impression of Jiang Lin, but firstly, Jiang Lin was much younger than her, and secondly, Jiang Lin was a classmate of her cousin Zhou Qiang, so she subconsciously rejected Jiang Lin to have further development.

People are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, it is easy to hide from a person, but it is obviously difficult to hide from everyone, Jiang Lin's application for the Yenching Film Academy was soon kicked out, and it spread in a small area, which made people stunned.

Naturally, Jiang Lin's outstanding college entrance examination results also failed to escape the fate of exposure, and for a while, it made people feel more and more strange, after all, in the eyes of the public, famous universities such as Shuimu University and Yenching University are obviously stronger than Yenching Film Academy.
