Chapter 22: Record Songs
The next morning, Meng Yufei got out of bed, and when she got up, her parents had already gone to work, and her grandmother was not there.
I washed my face and brushed my teeth, went to the kitchen to eat the breakfast that my mother had set aside, cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, drank a glass of water, and then rinsed my mouth with salt water and began to practice vocalizations in the yard.
In her previous life, Meng Yufei learned a lot of vocal music knowledge in YY, and she also watched a lot of video teaching about vocal music on Youku and Tudou, which benefited her a lot and greatly improved her singing level.
Meng Yufei first did a 'deep inhale and slow exhale breath control' exercise, the essentials of this exercise are: first learn to 'store air', press the air, discharge the exhaust gas, and then use the gap between the nose and the tip of the tongue like 'smelling the flowers', naturally and loosely inhale gently, inhale to be full, and then breathe down the dantian, slowly relax the chest ribs, so that the qi is slowly exhaled like a long stream of water, exhale evenly, the longer the control time, the better, after repeated practice 3 times.
Meng Yufei practiced the exercises of counting, counting dates, and counting gourds 3 times each, and then tensed her feet in one breath, first slowly and then quickly made the sound of 'ahaha...', which is an explosive staccato for exercising.
Meng Yufei finished the vocal practice according to the habits of her previous life, hummed a song again, and felt that her voice was almost open, so she went back to the house to find a tape recorder, picked up the guitar and began to prepare to record a song.
Meng Yufei played the tune first, followed and hummed it, feeling that she was in a good state today, and wanted to record a cappella first, choosing the classic song "Meet 98" sung by Faye Wong and Na Ying at the 1998 Spring Festival Gala.
Because I like this song very much, Meng Yufei also has a tape of this song at home, put it in the tape recorder, listened to it carefully, and then played it back, and wrote down a lyric by pressing and stopping, the interval was too long, the tune was very familiar, but the lyrics were not so deep.
After everything was ready, Meng Yufei put the blank tape into the tape recorder, picked up the memorized lyrics and sang softly: "Open your heart to peel off the shyness of spring, dance and spin to break the silence of winter; The warmth of the melt with affectionate greetings, the drizzle bathed the exciting moments of yesterday, yesterday, yesterday; You greet me with warm eyes and welcome the joy and joy I brought from yesterday~~
Come on, come on, meet ninety-eight, come on, meet ninety-eight; Meet in the silver moonlight, meet in warm affection; Come on, come on, meet ninety-eight, come on, meet nineteen ninety-eight; Meet in the sweet spring breeze, meet in the eternal youth; Heart to heart, heart to heart, year after year, no matter how close to the end of the world~. ”
Because I really like it, Meng Yufei chose this one.
Taking advantage of the good state, Meng Yufei then recorded the two tunes "The First Dream" and "Song of Youth", but Meng Yufei was not a complete recorded song, basically only one of the two songs was recorded.
There is no way, now Meng Yufei has no place to get a version \\ right protection certificate, so she can only do it first.
Although I believe in Huazhong Records, who knows who is reviewing the tapes? In case the song was stolen, Meng Yufei didn't cry. I was just about to find the letter when the phone rang in the living room.
"Hello, who?" Meng Yufei walked out of the study to pick up the phone.
"Is it Meng Yufei?" There was an echo on the other end of the phone, it was a boy's voice.
"I am, may I ask ...... you?" Meng Yufei had no impression of this voice, and couldn't help but ask with some doubts.
"I'm Mao Jingtao from Class 3, do you have time today?"
"Ma Jingtao?" Meng Yufei on the other end of the phone didn't hear the boy's words too clearly, and subconsciously repeated.
"Mao ~ Jingtao, it's Sanmao's Mao, not Ma Jingtao!" The voice on the other end of the phone was a little elongated and repeated, and he was also helpless about his name, which many people would mishear.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I heard you wrong, did you have something to do with me?" I thought it was the actor Ma Jingtao. Meng Yufei replied while recalling in her mind what kind of character Mao Jingtao was, but unfortunately she didn't find the slightest memory of this person.
"My ......" pauses on the other end of the phone, and then says, "I want you to help with something, can you come out at noon?" I'll treat you to dinner. ”
"Can I help? If you say something on the phone, I'll see if I can help? ”
"It's better to come out and say, it's not easy to talk on the phone, by the way when you eat at noon, it won't delay you for a long time."
The boy's voice on the other end of the line was a little embarrassed.
"That...... Uh......" Meng Yufei was a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, classmate, I don't seem to know you, so I may not be able to help you!" I really can't remember who Mao Jingtao is, Meng Yu simply told the truth.
"Isn't it? Meng Yufei, I didn't bring a Chinese textbook to your class to borrow it last month, it just so happens that there are not many people in that meeting, or did you lend it to me, have you forgotten? The boy on the other end of the line began to remind.
Meng Yufei sweated for a moment, and it was only 10 days after she was reborn, what a long memory the last month of this year was for her? What's more, just borrowed a book, more than 10 years have passed, how can you remember such a small thing?
"I'm sorry, I was busy with the exam a while ago, and I may be a little confused and don't remember, don't mind! By the way, where to eat at noon? "Since the classmates really want to help themselves, anyway, grandma went to the 'University for the Elderly' organized by their group of elderly people to study, and Meng Yufei was alone at noon, and someone invited someone out to eat and saved herself from doing it!
"There's a 'Xilaishun' stir-fry shop in Yuquan Park, do you know there?"
"You know, what time are you going?" I often go to the park, and this restaurant Meng Yufei is still quite familiar.
"I'll leave home and go over there, and we'll meet there at half past eleven, right?"
"Okay, see you later?" Meng Yufei looked at the wall clock, there was still nearly 1 hour to go, she was close to that side, and she just went out to send the tape by the way.
Meng Yufei hung up the phone and returned to his cabin, picked up the pen and began to write a letter, the letter was written to Huazhong Records, explaining that the lyrics and songs were all created by themselves, because of the limited conditions, they could only be accompanied by guitars, and it was also written that the premise was to sing these two songs by themselves, and if Huazhong Records agreed, the next step of cooperation between the two sides could be considered in detail.
Writing this passage Meng Yufei has also been carefully considered, she knows the value of these two songs, "The First Dream" needless to say, it has always been on the list of campus songs in later generations, "Dream of Youth" was still at the top of the online K song luke-list when Meng Yufei was reborn, she is a creator, and she can better interpret good songs, Meng Yufei doesn't want to work hard, but she made a wedding dress for others.
There is a classic saying: 'Gold will always shine', although I know that Huazhong Records will develop very well, but there are a few comparable, it's a big deal to put the audition tape to other record companies, Meng Yufei believes that good songs will not be buried.
