Chapter 31: New Songs of Ancient Sayings (1)
As the song goes, please bring my song back to your home, please leave your money.
As a reborn, Ye Gui doesn't know lottery numbers, doesn't know the ups and downs of stocks, except for some general directions that are not easy to realize, the most left is songs.
At this time, if you can take the opportunity to connect with the queen of songs, it will not only be beneficial to the future development, but also the most important start-up capital at this juncture when everything is poor.
Thinking of this, Ye Gui raised his voice and asked Jiang Linfeng: "Teacher Jiang, do you have Yue Sitong's last album?" ”
Jiang Linfeng was a little strange when he heard Ye Gui's question, but he still thought about it and said: "There should be, we usually occasionally take amateurs to record songs, Yue Sitong's songs are Chinese hot songs, so not only her albums, but also some accompaniment tapes should be found." ”
Ye Gui was overjoyed when he heard this: "You don't need an accompaniment tape, it's good to have an album, Mr. Jiang, can you bring it to me?" ”
Although everyone in the previous few people told Yue Sitong's songs is the same, Ye Gui really hasn't heard Yue Sitong's songs, so this will bring the album to hear Yue Sitong's voice and whether her last album was good or bad.
"Are you going to stop recording albums?" Jiang Linfeng paused and said, "Don't worry, this time I will definitely record it for you, that... The microphone will also be replaced. ”
Ye Gui smiled: "Teacher Jiang, you misunderstood. The album was going to be recorded, but I suddenly had some inspiration, so I wanted to listen to Yue Sitong's album. ”
Everyone else is inspired after listening to the song, why do you listen to the song after you are inspired?
Jiang Linfeng, who doesn't understand the brain circuits of young people now, was afraid that Ye Gui would pit himself again, so he didn't object, and asked Jiang Shan to go to the third floor to find Yue Sitong's album full of folk style, "Blue Sky".
Ye Gui took the album and saw a landscape picture on the box, the distant mountains stood alone under the clear sky, the sky took up most of the space on the entire cover, and the completely blank cover was very different from other album covers of this era.
The consciousness of this singer is really a little ahead of her time.
Opening the CD case and handing the disc to Jiang Shan, Ye Gui flipped to the back and looked at the song list.
There are a total of ten songs, and ten of them are something that Ye Gui has never heard.
Ye Gui said secretly, it seems that this Yue Sitong and that Chen Jiajia are both people who have emerged in this changed world.
Jiang Shan took the disc and put it in the machine.
As the most professional recording studio in Long Province, the sound equipment here is of course excellent.
The CD began to play, and an erhu sound sounded.
This is the first song of the album, Jiang Shan introduced it on the side, and this is also one of the title songs of this album.
The erhu sound sounds very poignant, and the girls in the background are singing, and a picture of a girl singing alone surrounded by flowers in the moonlight comes to the face.
This prelude is not very amazing, but it can also be seen that Yue Sitong is indeed working on this album very carefully.
Although this kind of girl's chanting was common in later generations, it was a relatively new way in this era.
Ye Gui frowned when he heard this, and when Yue Sitong's singing part began, he understood where Yue Sitong's problem had appeared before.
After the song was played, Jiang Shan asked if he wanted to continue playing.
In order to find a song path suitable for Yue Sitong, Ye Gui must accurately grasp the song path of this diva.
From the evaluation of this album by several people at this time, as well as the quality of the song just now, Ye Gui already has a general understanding of Yue Sitong's voice and style.
In order to hurry up, Ye Gui decided to quickly browse through the album.
So a few people saw that the whole CD was listened to quickly by Ye Gui, sometimes fast-forwarding and sometimes at a normal speed.
"Ye Gui, do you have any ideas?" Liu Jie looked at Ye Gui as if he was thinking about something after listening to the album, and asked out loud: "Is there a song you wrote that suits her?" ”
Ye Gui thought for a moment, and then said: "There are really a few songs that are very suitable for Yue Sitong's current style, and I think it is much better than her album." ”
Zhao Liang was surprised when he heard it: "It's better than this album?" This one was made by one of the best teams in the mainland. ”
Although Yue Sitong's album sales are not high, it is also relative to the albums of Xiangjiang Baodao and foreign singers, her album is still ranked first in the album sales ranking of mainland singers, and Yue Sitong's record company is the leader in the industry, and the various reserve resources in the production of the album are among the best in the mainland.
Zhao Liang was afraid that Ye Gui would be misled by the statements in newspapers and magazines, and just by seeing the media, he really felt that Yue Sitong's album was not good.
Jiang Linfeng also said at this time: "Xiao Ye, I admit that you play the guitar really well, and you are indeed a talented person, but playing the piano and writing songs are not the same thing, sometimes you think that the melody is good, not everyone will like it." ”
Jiang Linfeng's words are true, why would there be musicians who have been popular for so long in later generations and suddenly released an album that everyone has bad reviews, it's not that they didn't make albums with their hearts or their level has regressed.
On the contrary, they tend to improve their music a lot after many years of popularity, so sometimes they will write something that pays more attention to technique, and ignores the essence of pop songs, good melodies.
The reason why there are so many fingerstyle masters in later generations, and many of the songs they write are only circulated among a few people, and the vast majority of people are not aware of the existence of these people, this is because of the problem of transmission.
Ye Gui's guitar is very advanced, but what he plays is still in the category of classical guitar after all, so Jiang Linfeng is worried that the melodies he writes are even inferior to the songs written by musicians who play folk songs or electric guitars.
If it were someone else, it was indeed possible to make this problem, but Ye Gui, as a humanoid music library that has been leading the world for nearly 20 years, would certainly not come up with a song with a too small audience because the field was too narrow.
After thinking for a while, Ye Gui said, "Teacher Jiang, can I ask you for a favor?" ”
"You say."
"I have a few tunes that I want to sell to Yue Sitong, can you ask Boss Sun to help contact her?" Looking at Jiang Linfeng, Ye Gui said slowly: "It's best to see her in person, if you can't meet her in person, you can help me hand over a sample of the song." ”
Listening to Jiang Linfeng's previous statement, Sun Yan and Yue Sitong's company and her own friendship may not be so good, so it was just an idea to talk to Yue Sitong about the tune in person, and Ye Gui mainly wanted Lejia Recording Studio to help hand over the sample to Yue Sitong.
Ye Gui has long had the idea of selling songs, but it's a pity that domestic record companies will receive countless samples every day, and most foreign record companies only accept songs invited by themselves, as an ordinary person, even if Ye Gui's songs are good, they can't escape the fate of being buried.
So at the beginning, Ye Gui decided that instead of sending countless samples and waiting for luck to be discovered one day, it was better to start from scratch, so that maybe the success would be faster.
But this time is different, if the song can be handed to Yue Sitong, then Ye Gui believes that with the strength shown by this song queen and the strong desire to break through revealed in this album, Yue Sitong will definitely not let go of these songs.
Jiang Linfeng was silent for a long time, and then said with some hesitation: "I'll tell you the truth, our cooperation with Yue Sitong has just had a clue, if the relationship is good, Sun Yan would have already brought Yue Sitong to promote the recording studio, so I'm afraid it's not easy for you to do this." ”
In order not to have a bad impression in Yue Sitong's heart, Sun Yan didn't even dare to invite her a few more times and let her come to the recording studio, let alone rashly give Yue Sitong a sample.
If the song is good, then it's okay to say, everyone is happy, but if the song is not good, then it's a waste of people's time, and in Yue Sitong's heart, Lejia's professionalism may also plummet.
In the final analysis, although Jiang Linfeng admitted to underestimating Ye Gui, he still wouldn't risk his future for Lejia.
Ye Gui saw Jiang Linfeng's thoughts, and said with a smile: "Teacher Jiang, don't be busy rejecting me first, it's better to listen to the songs I wrote first." ”
Jiang Linfeng was stunned, this is fine, when everyone listens to Ye Gui's song, there is a reason to refuse.
Thinking of this, Jiang Linfeng just wanted to say that if your song is not professional enough, then don't blame us, but I feel that I seem to have seen this picture before, so I thought that I should not say it, so he said casually: "Then you can sing it." ”
Ye Gui nodded and walked into the recording studio, to Jiang Linfeng's surprise, he did not choose a guitar accompaniment, but sat in front of a keyboard in the recording studio.

There are still in the afternoon.
