Chapter Ninety-Six: Laymen Guide Insiders
As the music director of Star Records, Zhao Mingchuan is very aware of the company's current problems. As a music creator, Zhao Mingchuan understands better than anyone else that good singers are easy to get, but good creators are hard to find.
If others are more optimistic about Wenle's talent in writing, Zhao Mingchuan hopes that Yu Wenle can persist on the road of music creation. Judging from the current income alone, writing songs really doesn't make money from writing.
But Zhao Mingchuan knows that he is a well-known music creator. As their finished works increase, the price of the songs they create will also increase. For example, now, the price of creating a song starts from millions.
Writing a novel is undoubtedly easier than the time it takes to write a song. This is also the reason why Yu Wenle has only one novel work so far, but he has several musical works.
Regarding the practice of confessing to the beautiful girl yesterday and going to Yu Wenle to chat at night, Zhao Mingchuan felt a little unkind. But he knew very well that if the two girls could get Yu Wenle's friendship, it would also be their luck.
Don't look at the current Yu Wenle, he is just a cutting-edge martial arts writer and music creator. But Yu Wenle's youth and old age made Zhao Mingchuan look forward to his future development. At this time, the two girls went to make friends and could still make friends.
If it is really equivalent to the day when Wenle becomes famous, Xu Mingming and a quasi-artist like Zhu Liang are afraid that they are not qualified to make friends with the truly famous Yu Wenle. Making friends sometimes depends on each other's identities!
From Yuan Na, Zhao Mingchuan also got some news, that is, Si Xuan's personal relationship with Yu Wenle is very good. As for what Cheng dΓΉ is 'very good', Zhao Mingchuan doesn't want to care too much.
This kind of thing is not uncommon in the entertainment industry. Appropriate scandals can sometimes boost a singer's popularity. Today's Si Xuan is not a newcomer like Xu Mingming, and it doesn't hurt to spread a scandal.
Looking at Yu Wenle, who appeared in his office again, Zhao Mingchuan also smiled and said, "Wenle, how was your rest yesterday?" β
'Okay! I don't know much about life, and I basically sleep next to bed when I'm sleepy. It's just that I didn't expect that Director Zhao would also be so conscientious. I thought that most of you CEOs would arrive at the company later than employees! β
When he entered Starry Sky Records before, Yu Wenle also knew that the company had not been working for a long time. can see that the ashtray on Zhao Mingchuan's table already has no less than four or five cigarette butts. It is enough to show that Zhao Ming came very early.
In response to Wenle's words, Zhao Mingchuan smiled self-deprecatingly: "No way, I'm old, and I don't have the energy I had when I was young." In addition, the company has a mess every day, so if you don't come early, I'm afraid that you will have to work overtime at night! β
From Si Xuan, it is already known that Zhao Mingchuan is not only the music director of Star Records, but also a shareholder of this company. Although the shares owned by him are not as good as the company's CEO, he is also known as one of the bosses of Star Records.
Not long after sitting in Zhao Mingchuan's office, the three of them came to the recording studio they watched yesterday. For Si Xuan's new album, Starlight Records still attaches great importance to it. After all, Si Xuan's ability to absorb gold is still very strong.
At present, the sales of Yuan Na's records are generally optimistic. Star Records also hopes to launch Si Xuan's new album to make Star Records famous again. When the time comes, find the opportunity to launch the newcomer group 'Bright Girl'.
As a record company, the profit point they really make money, in addition to the singer's endorsement commission, the amount of record sales also directly affects their income. Therefore, every time an album is produced, the company has high hopes.
Looking at Si Xuan, who entered the recording studio to prepare, he finally regained his usual cold expression. Yu Wenle, who stayed in the recording studio, also quietly watched Zhao Mingchuan guide Si Xuan to record, as well as use the high-end recording equipment in the recording studio.
When he asked Si Xuan to brew a little love, Zhao Mingchuan said with a smile: "Wenle, do you want to listen to Si Xuan, the other songs that have been recorded." Although the quality is not as good as your two songs, these songs are still more dance-oriented.
Judging by the songs you've been writing so far, it doesn't seem like there's a set set in your creative style. This shows that you are suitable for creating different styles of work. It will be helpful to know more about other styles of music. β
'I'm really new to music making. If it weren't for Teacher Wenjie's guidance, I was afraid that I wouldn't have been able to finish the song I wrote to Sister Na and them. This time, I learned more from you, and you are an expert in this area! β
'Experts can't talk about it!' When it comes to music, inspiration is really important. Despite my age, I have a lot of experience in music creation. But sometimes with more experience, it will become a problem and a creative bottleneck.
It's like a beautiful girl, I tried to write a lot of songs. But my personal feeling is that they don't quite fit the company's style orientation for them. It's all little girls, and songs that are too mature aren't for them.
Although there are external invitation songs, the effect does not seem to be ideal. This time, I specially asked Si Xuan to invite you over, and I also hope to use your inspiration. You are the same age as them, and you may know better what young people like today. β
Taking advantage of the opportunity to chat, Zhao Mingchuan did not forget to remind Yu Wenle to try to compose songs for the bright girl. This kind of eagerness makes Yu Wenle a little crying and laughing, but he still feels that the songs he has created will be given slowly.
He smiled and said, "Director Zhao, I really have very little experience in music creation. At the moment, writing words is probably the only thing I'm good at. Their age and temperament are indeed not suitable for songs with too strong mature sexuality.
Last night, I also tried to write words, but I wasn't very satisfied. However, the general idea is already there. Give me a little more time, and maybe I can try to write a song that matches their cute, innocent, and fresh style. β
With Yu Wenle's answer, Zhao Mingchuan didn't say anything more. Some things are better in moderation. If you do too much, it will make people feel uncomfortable. This kind of way of doing things, Zhao Mingchuan naturally understands it.
At this time, Si Xuan, who was sitting in the recording studio, made an OK gesture at the right time. This means that Si Xuan's pre-recording experience has been completed and can be officially recorded.
Listening to this song called 'Whirlwind', Yu Wenle knew that it was a song with a cheerful rhythm. This kind of song, the effect of simply listening to the recording, seems to be a little less than ideal. But with the dance, it should have a different effect.
Overall, Si Xuan's recording effect this time was good. But Zhao Mingchuan still smiled and said: "Wenle, what do you think of the effect of Xuanxuan's recording this time?" I heard Nana say, you have a great sense of voice? β
'Sister Na, that is deliberately killing me! I know very well how high my level of music is. Sister Xuan's voice is very good, the vocal range is very wide, and the conversion of high and low tones is also very well controlled. But this song should be dance music, right? β
'Yes! β
In the case of dance music, there should be no problem with this recording effect in the album. But this song, I listened to it before, and there are a lot of trebles. Although Sister Xuan is recording very well now, what about the scene?
If it's a live performance, so many high notes need to be driven and sung along with the dance. The requirements for Sister Xuan's performance are only afraid that they will not be higher than the recording. Personally, I feel that there are too many treble areas in the song. β
Although singing and dancing is already a common thing for Si Xuan. But Yu Wenle knows more or less that when dancing, people's breath will change somewhat. If the breath is messed up, how can the high pitch in the back soar up?
In Bunraku's opinion, the rhythm of this song sounds very energetic, but it completely ignores that the singer also has to sing with the dance. Even if Si Xuan is young, such a song with such a big burden is estimated to be enough to sing it live.
And the Yanhuang Empire strictly prohibits such things as lip-syncing. Before the singer goes on stage, if he is unwell, he can temporarily interrupt or apologize in advance if he is sick. If you dare to lip-sync, unless you can ensure that you don't get noticed by the audience.
Once it happens to the audience, the consequences of deceiving the audience are only unwilling to be borne by every singer. Therefore, singers who dare to sing on stage in the Yanhuang Empire, singing skills are the most basic requirements for becoming a singer!
