Chapter 208: The Problem Is Unbelief
The clubhouse is also catching up with the trend, and Penny Dai's "The Love You Want" flows quietly in the air. Xu Ruoxuan looked at the back of Chai Zhiping, who had left in advance under the pretext of leaving, smiled, and refocused on the various snacks in front of him. I couldn't help it, but I still ate one.
The two of them sat quietly for ten minutes, Xu Ruoxuan ate dim sum, drank black tea, and observed Du Hanwen. It seemed that the object in front of him was really enjoying a rare leisure time in the afternoon, with his eyes closed, and his fingers gently tapping on the armrest of the chair to the rhythm of the song. If you eat again, you will really become fat, Xu Ruoxuan kicked Du Hanwen under the table, "Hey, Sister Chai deliberately left, don't tell me that you didn't discuss it, obviously leave you as a lobbyist, okay to do something." ”
"Don't make a fuss, I'm thinking about things." Du Hanwen is really a little less interested in persuading Xu Ruoxuan, mainly because listening to the song and remembering a more interesting thing.
A woman's curiosity is definitely a dead end, although she feels that Du Hanwen is playing tricks, Xu Ruoxuan still jumped into the pit, "What's the matter?" ”
Laughing without saying a word, he took a sip of tea, "I heard that you wrote the lyrics for a singer who was signed by Brother Xian before?" ”
"Jay Chou? Haha, it looks like you haven't given up trying to get into the record industry. Xu Ruoxuan was quite proud, and was proud of Du Hanwen's attention to himself, "How about it, by the end of the year, it is estimated that you will make a lot of money, and you will pay for the album to play." ”
"Then I'm going to take the Grammys." Du Hanwen spread his hands, "This kind of limelight thing is better for newcomers to do." ”
Xu Ruoxuan almost didn't squirt out of a sip of black tea, and he didn't have an image when he smiled. Fortunately, it's a clubhouse, and no one cares about what the two of them are doing here. Naturally, Xu Ruoxuan would not lie down and watch because of Xu Ruoxuan's smile, so this woman kept laughing.
"Is it that funny?" Du Hanwen poked Xu Ruoxuan's head with his finger, "Don't believe I can make an album that takes a Grammy?" ”
Xu Ruoxuan shook her head. "The Grammy Awards you are talking about are not special awards that can be won by sponsorship, but awards such as Song of the Year. Have you ever seen a Chinese song win a European and American award? Cultural identities are different, and they are inherently inferior. Wake up, I'll admit that your lyrics are pretty good, and your English is okay. But not to the point where you can make English words. Don't put your hard-earned money into this bottomless pit, the record industry is burning money to support singers, not burning money to make records. It is enough for a singer to burn money to make a good record, and after becoming famous, it is packaging and publicity. ”
Du Hanwen was quite inspired and felt that Xu Ruoxuan's words made sense, "What if I really make English words? ”
Xu Ruoxuan looked at Du Hanwen and was a little puzzled, "You won't use this reason to convince me, I'll tell you honestly." The agency has their bottom line, which is the salary, at least one million episodes. So I didn't mention it to Sister Chai at all, I knew it might be a little difficult. ”
"It's okay, at least you're the most redwood dish now, and the price is okay." Du Hanwen said this, Xu Ruoxuan was quite satisfied, "You have a conscience." It's not in vain that I'll help you stand on the platform. But that's basically nothing to talk about, if it's twenty episodes. My personal salary alone is 20 million, so the cost of this drama alone must be between 3 million and 5 million. Listening to director Xiao Cai say that this drama is more luxurious, it is conservatively estimated that it will have a budget of 100 million. It's dizzy to think about this number, it's just a TV series. ”
"Don't talk about this yet, continue with the topic I'm interested in." Du Hanwen interrupted Xu Ruoxuan. "Just now, I suddenly thought, if I can really make two Grammy-level songs of the year to make the opening and ending songs of the TV series, can I be proud for a lifetime."
Xu Ruoxuan leaned back in his chair, disdainful. "As long as you don't gamble, don't prostitute or smoke, you don't have any special hobbies, and it's okay to lie down and eat for a lifetime."
"Come on." Du Hanwen stood up and stretched out his hand to Xu Ruoxuan, "I'll sing you the best Grammy song of the year." ”
Xu Ruoxuan was stunned, with his understanding of this man, his eyes were serious. And if it's true? Xu Ruoxuan remembered Du Hanwen's expression when he wrote the lyrics that night, he was so sure in front of him, where did his confidence come from.
Chen Jianning was making a sample in the recording studio, and his mind was no longer on the sample in front of him, but drifted into the distance. I've always wanted to do the music I want to do, but I can't find the direction, I don't know if I can make new discoveries when I go to see campus singers this year. When he found Du Hanwen standing in front of him, he was startled, mainly by Xu Ruoxuan on the side. Xu Ruoxuan still has a singer contract, and Ai Hui and the gods of the world are standing in front of him, a little restrained. Are you here to dig yourself? Chen Jianning felt that he was thinking too much.
"Brother Ning, can you let me use the keyboard?" Du Hanwen asked, Chen Jianning reacted, and pointed to the recording studio, "Well, want to play?" ”
"He's going to sing me a Grammy song of the year." Xu Ruoxuan hugged his arms and said disdainfully, "So I need Brother Ning to help him tune." ”
"Can you not tell the truth?" Du Hanwen was a little embarrassed, Xu Ruoxuan really understood himself. I came to a professional studio to sing, didn't I just want to help with tuning? Otherwise, it will be too difficult for his innocent voice to play the charm of the Grammy's best song of the year.
Chen Jianning played a round field, "It's okay, it's okay, after Du Du has experience in the recording studio, the sound control is much more stable." ”
Du Hanwen blushed and hurriedly went into the recording studio to try the keyboard. Chen Jianning also walked in, "Du Du, will you use this?" ”
"Uh, it's okay to play a Super Mario." Du Hanwen told the truth.
"It's hard to do 10 percent of the thing." Chen Jianning told the truth, this is a synthetic keyboard, not a simple electronic keyboard, and the functions are much more complex. I thought about it, "I'll play it, which song?" "KissfromArose" or "SunnycameHome"? The Grammys of the Year for these two years, right? ”
Du Hanwen blinked his eyes, he hadn't heard of these two capitals. Xu Ruoxuan stood by the door and smiled, "Brother Ning, the Grammy song of the year that Du Du said is the song of the year written by himself." ”
Chen Jianning almost fell headlong on the keyboard, his face twitched, and he had the urge to get this dog out. Big brother, don't make a fuss, is the Grammy song of the year something you can write if you want to? Is it stupid or simple? If it weren't for the fact that everyone had a good relationship, and they would have to cooperate in the next play, Chen Jianning would definitely kick Du Hanwen out now, purely to make trouble.
"Why don't I hum a little first, Brother Ning, you find a tune, and then I'll do it again?" Du Hanwen proposed, Chen Jianning nodded very shamefully, and he should play with Du Hanwen.
Xu Ruoxuan closed the soundproof door, the recording studio was still quite familiar, and asked Du Hanwen if he was ready.
Du Hanwen nodded, his fingers lightly tapping the rhythm on the music stand. Although it was a joke, once it reached the scope of his work, Chen Jianning was still very focused. kept looking at Du Hanwen, and when he saw the rhythm of his fingers, his expression became serious. With a rhythm of four quarters, it's easy to keep up.
"Iusedtoruletheworld,seaswouldrisewhenIgavetheworl...", Du Hanwen himself beat himself and sang a cappella song. The melody of "Vivalavida" has been spinning in my head for the past few days, and the song that has been repeated countless times in those years is familiar enough to know the position of each note. This is thanks to Brother Wei Zhong's training for himself, without those music theory training, even if he can sing, he is not confident to brag that he can present this song to one-tenth of the Grammy level.
Inside and outside the soundproof glass, the two musicians are two feelings. Xu Ruoxuan was surprised to find that Du Hanwen sang an English song that he had never heard, and the rhythm was still British rock. Compared with Xu Ruoxuan, Chen Jianning can judge from a professional point of view, and after only listening to half of it, he knows that this is a mature song. Because Du Hanwen has a very accurate grasp of every place that needs to be lowered and raised, and the lyrics rhyme is just right. It can't be an improvisational song, it must be a produced song.
If Du Hanwen wants to know Chen Jianning's thoughts, he must give a thumbs up, and then say cheaply, how about Lao Tzu copying songs. Sue me, Coldplay has just debuted at this time.
Wait for Du Hanwen to sing "IhearJerusalembellsringing, romancavalrychoirsaresingsingsing." Chen Jianning couldn't sit still, motioned to Du Hanwen to stop, frowned and said to Du Hanwen seriously, "This is the title song of an unreleased album, no matter where you got it, don't sing it." Believe me, those multinational record giants will work hard with you for such a song. ”
Xu Ruoxuan turned off the microphone and opened the door with a serious face, "Hey, it's okay to be kidding, the songs of big companies are all registered, be careful to sue you to wear pants." ”
Du Hanwen was stunned for a long time before he reacted, happy, "What do you think?" I called this song "Long Live Life", and in Spanish it was more in style, "Vivalavida", isn't it cool? ”
Chen Jianning tried hard to think about it, and there was really no such song in the song library in his mind. Not to mention Xu Ruoxuan, this woman believes that Du Hanwen stole it from the record company's song library.
"Hey, I really made it myself, I didn't lie to you." Du Hanwen looked at the faces of the two with unified expressions helplessly, and wrote two words, I don't believe it.
Du Hanwen really wanted to kneel down for these two people, and everyone copied the song with a look of admiration, why was he suspected of copying the song himself. Well, although I played a little too much and copied "Vivalavida", I didn't question my character.
He pulled out the cross on his chest, pinched it in his hand, and pointed to the sky with three fingers, "I swear to Jesus, I made this song myself, otherwise the sky will thunder and thunder." ”
"Your cross is fake, and there are five thunderbolts in the sky." Xu Ruoxuan laughed and pulled Du Hanwen's hand down, "I believe you." ”
Du Hanwen looked at Chen Jianning with satisfaction, Chen Jianning shrugged, "Anyway, among so many songs I've heard, there is no such one." (To be continued......)
