Chapter 294: Leading the Market

After listening to Gu Xi's story, Gu Xiangping knew that he should come or come.

Since Ding Ning announced his relationship with Ye Di, he knew that there would be such a day, which was much later than expected.

Ding Ning and Ye Di announced their relationship in January, and now it is June in summer, nearly half a year, and finally came to an end, he was heavy and relieved.

The heavy thing is that my daughter is uncomfortable, and he is not comfortable either.

It is relieved that no one is immortal until the heart of the Yellow River is not dead, and now that everything has been revealed, it is time for Gu Xixin to die, so it is time for him to let go of his worries.

"So, what do you think?" Gu Xiangping stretched out his hand and gently rubbed Gu Xi's hair.

Since Gu Xi went to high school, it has been difficult for him to have the opportunity to do these intimate little actions.

Now that he has a rare opportunity, he feels very uncomfortable.

What a good baby daughter, she just wants to hang on the tree of Ding Ning, but Ding Ning still has a Ye Di.

This is called fate.

The weather is good, the sunshine is just right, you can see the vast area in all directions, looking downstairs at the towering high-rise buildings, from this angle, there is no sense of upright majesty, but it is even steeper, like one cliff after another.

In the past, Gu Xi always didn't dare to look down condescendingly, but now, her gaze is free.

Compared with the emotions in her heart, physical fear is really nothing, and even below what scared her before, there is now a magic that attracts her to look.

She took a deep breath and said slowly, "I want to continue to stay in Ding Ning's company." ”

"Why?" Gu Xiangping was surprised.

Ding Ning said so openly, she still wants to stay in Ding Ning's company. Why is this so painful?

Gu Xi turned his head sideways, looked at his father and said, "I haven't thought about what I'm going to do after graduation before. Because I feel that graduation is far away from me. You're going to send me abroad for a master's degree and a Ph.D., right, so I only had one goal in the past. That is to read the book well. ”

"But after training at the World Willis for so long, I realized that I still love singing. Since I was a child, I have been trained in all kinds of music, vocal music, musical instruments, when I was a child, I felt very painful to learn this, I didn't want to learn at all, how you beat me and scolded me, I didn't want to learn. ”

"Later, when I read a book, I found that everyone praised me for singing well and playing the piano. I didn't want to learn, but I took the initiative to learn it, and the annoying things turned into hobbies. After staying in Wanwei for so long, I have always been affirmed, and I have always understood the singer industry, and I have slowly become unable to give up on being a singer. ”

"I really want to be a singer now, and I really want your dad, my mom, and my sister to hear my songs and see me on stage. I also want people across the country and the world to know my name. It's a bit wishful thinking, but I just want to. I also don't want to work hard for so long, and give up when I say give up. ”

"For Ding Ning", Gu Xi's eyes dimmed: "Now everything is said to be open." I already knew I couldn't do it with him, so I could put all my energy into singing. ”

"Turn grief into strength." Gu Xi squeezed his mouth and smiled: "As you said, everyone who leaves the earth will turn the same." I don't have to be him. I'm so beautiful, I can go around the earth three times after me. How could I be hanging from his tree? I just want to be a singer now, whether I succeed or fail. At least give it a try. ”

Gu Xiangping was silent for a moment when he heard this, and said, "Being a singer doesn't have to be in Ding Ning's company, do you want me to help me find a new company?" Dad still has a few friends in the entertainment industry. ”

"No need", Gu Xi said categorically: "Just stay in Ding Ning's company, it's useless to escape, isn't it?" ”

"Yes, but not running away will make you miserable." Gu Xiangping frowned slightly, and spoke slowly.

He could see that his daughter hadn't completely let go. He was helpless and remorseful.

Obviously, he agreed to Gu Xi's entry into Wanwei before, undoubtedly with good intentions to do bad things, and he felt that he should not be a good person at that time, but it was too late.

"It's the same with escaping." Suddenly, Gu Xi remembered "Dark Fragrance".

It's better to let the heart die in splendor than to scatter in the ashes, she thinks.

Gu Xiangping was speechless for a while when he heard this.

He touched the pocket on his chest and took out the cigarette case, but before he could take out the cigarette, he was glared back by the same eyes as Gu Xi's housekeeper.

This daughter always has an inexhaustible means of dealing with him, both soft and hard, but why is she so powerless in front of Ding Ning.

If only she could be half as spicy.

It's a pity that his daughter is really a person like water, clear, translucent, and gentle, so that he can't go against her ideas and intentions.

He sighed lightly and said slowly, "Whatever you want, but don't put down your studies and don't do stupid things." You can love persistently, but you can't love ignorantly. ”

"Hmm." Father is still tolerant, Gu Xi grabbed his father's arm: "Dad, don't worry, I have a number." ”

"Hmm." Gu Xiangping smiled, and the sunlight poured down, sprinkled on Gu Xi's face, reflecting her exceptionally clearly.

Suddenly, looking at Gu Xi's smiling face, he felt that there was nothing wrong with being like this now, youth, if you hit a wall, you will mature.

Who has not been obsessed with righteousness and has no hesitation.

But he was a little distressed, it was really contradictory.

……

Gu Xi chose to stay, Ding Ning was naturally happy, the demos of "Laurel Goddess" and "The World", he made it in two days and handed them over to Gu Xi.

On June 6th, Gu Xi auditioned for the first time, "The World" recorded one version, and "Laurel Goddess" Gu Xi sang two versions.

After Gu Xi finished singing, he left the studio because of emotional problems, and Ding Ning made up a demo, re-listened to the two versions of "Laurel Goddess" with Yang Du, and then asked Yang Du: "Uncle Yang, which version do you think is good?" ”

Yang Du really admires Ding Ning's hard-heartedness, obviously after Gu Xi sang "The World". His eyes were as red as rabbits, but he was able to stay in the studio and analyze the demo indifferently. Therefore, amorous men are the most ruthless.

That's right, Ding Ning in his opinion. is an amorous seed, otherwise how could Gu Xi and Ye Di be members of Wanwei.

He didn't know what Ding Ning thought, but he felt that this was very bad, but he couldn't say it.

After all, he had already intervened in this matter once and did not dare to do more.

Pressing down the other thoughts in his heart, Yang Du said: "If you want to say that it is pleasing to the ear, it must be a normal popular singing version." However, this version is too conventional. There's nothing amazing about it, and it sounds like a lot of saliva. The air-sound version, not so saliva, very undulating and wrinkled, but it may be a bit fancy, according to my aesthetic vision, a bit artificial, not enough for the public. ”

"But this is the style you position Gu Xi, if you have to distinguish Gu Xi from other singers. Then I recommend the breath version, her use of breath is still amazing, and Feng Liqin can't sing her feelings, this is her talent. But. To be honest, it will take time for the public to accept her singing. She is different from Kong Que, there is a big difference. I don't know what you think of her and Kong Que, but I think Kong Que is very different from her. ”

"What did Kong Que say? Her singing voice is particularly powerful and can sink into people's ears. And the way she sings. Most people can imitate a shape. Gu Xi floated out of his ears, the curve was high and low, and even the shape was difficult to imitate, this was the limitation. ”

When Ding Ning heard this, he was silent for a while, and said, "Uncle Yang, tell you the truth, if I use these two songs to release a single album for Gu Xi now, how much do you think I can sell?" ”

Yang Du thought for a while and said: "The single album is only three or four yuan, we give some publicity ourselves, and it is not a problem to sell platinum." ”

"Just a white gold?" Ding Ning frowned.

Yang Du smiled: "Your ambition is also too big, a newcomer, before you put it, you can sell a platinum thank God, which company is a seed-level seedling." There are a few demons in our world, but you can't really turn everyone into demons. It's not that I said, singing well and being popular are two different things, Kong Que is a fake minority, the first time I heard her voice, I just told you, she can be popular. ”

"But Gu Xi, to be honest, I'm a little unoptimistic. Maybe twenty or thirty years earlier, Gu Xi's singing would be popular. But now that saliva songs are in vogue, few people can calm down and savor the charm of the song. Even if it's Feng Liqin, you see that her current singing style is very popular, and she lacks a lot of fancy skills. The more flowery, the more niche it is, as you surely know. ”

"There is only one place where there is a market for fancy skills now, and that is on reality TV shows. But when you meet a player who can really use a simple voice to mobilize people's emotions, no matter how much fancy it takes, it's useless. Remember Qiu Yiyi, admit it or not, her singing skills beat you, but she didn't win against you, and then she wasn't eliminated quickly. ”

"At that time, the most popular was not Sun Lixin, who imitated you to sing folk songs, how popular "Stranger" was sung by him, and how popular "Escape from the Tiger's Mouth" was, the media is now blowing him almost over you, under your original song comments, many people say that you are not as good as Sun Lixin. Does he have any fancy tricks? I think his singing skills are worse than yours, but he is just popular. ”

Ding Ning was silent for a long time when he heard this.

Yang Du is right, the more flowery it is, the more niche it is. Faye Wong's recognized pinnacle work is "Impetuous", which does not eat fireworks in the world at all, but the sales of "Impetuous" are simply miserable. And Gu Xi's current style is very similar to Faye Wong during the "Impetuous" period.

Yang Du's vision is still very sophisticated, at least Yang Du can find him early, and he can also tell him that he has found a good seedling of Kong Que at the first time.

Yang Du is very sensitive to the market, and hearing him say this, Ding Ning also feels that Gu Xi is likely not to be as popular as other singers he has handled.

But he was not willing to compromise on that.

Although "Impetuous" did not sell well, it confirmed Faye Wong's status in the pop music world. And Gu Xi has such good congenital conditions, he is reluctant to give up and let her follow the crowd.

After thinking about it for a while, he decided to stick to his opinion: "No matter, I just want Gu Xi to sing like this." Sun Lixin has disappeared now, at his level, he can't be popular, it's just a flash in the pan, in the final analysis, singing skills are still very important. ”

"Haha", knowing that Ding Ning would not change his mind, Yang Du smiled heartily: "It's not that singing skills are important, it's that the voice is very important." Sun Lixin can be popular because of his unique voice, a bit of tobacco and alcohol, and singing your ballads is like a fish in water. Gu Xi's voice is also good, but he is not grounded in technique. ”

"Of course, you have your own decisions, just do it your own way. Maybe you can let Gu Xi sing in popular singing now to make her sell three platinums, but her upper limit may stop at three platinums, there is no characteristic, and there is no outstanding style, just like Zhang Xuan, she has little room for improvement. But if you stick to your own ideas, her current ceiling is very low, and maybe it will gradually increase in the future, and when the market is formed, she will be the overlord. ”

"What did Zheng Wei say, the most powerful singer is not to echo the market, but to lead the market. You are now leading the market in creation, so let Gu Xi lead the market in terms of technique. ”

"Hmm", Yang Du's words sounded much more comfortable, Ding Ning said: "Then let's go according to the original idea, then Uncle Yang, do you think it is appropriate for her to release such a singles album with two songs at this time?" ”

Yang Du tapped his fingers on the keyboard, thought for a while, and said, "It's not suitable." In a style like Gu Xi, you have to give a larger dose at one time. If you want to come a little bit, it's not impossible, I'm afraid that the influence is not enough, and the audience's preferences are not tamed, but we ourselves will raise the flag and surrender first. ”

"What about the EP album, about six songs." Ding Ning said.

Yang Du said: "Almost, the two songs are a little less, there is basically no screening, and you can only become famous purely by one song." can become famous in a song, you also know the difficulty, there are many excellent seedlings in this industry who died from single albums. The single album, how to say it, is to raise Gu, let a bunch of singers come out, and those who are lucky enough to become popular focus on cultivation, and the others are dead. ”

"If you really have the heart to cultivate Gu Xi, don't let her release a single album, plan for her well, releasing an EP album is the least, and it is better to release a complete album. You think, if she keeps releasing singles, in case she can't get up, and our resources are repeatedly biased towards her, then the same six songs, a few single albums or a few singles will definitely be full of gossip. And for an album, it's hard to say what you want others to say, right? ”

In the end, it's someone who came over, this door is clear, Ding Ning said: "That's okay, then I'll reconsider." ”

"Hmm." Yang Du nodded, paused and said, "Really don't you want to see Gu Xi?" I saw her singing "The World" just now, and her eyes turned red a little when she sang a sentence. ”

Ding Ning smiled suddenly: "You don't care about Uncle Yang, I have my own plans." ”

Young man, the left one has his own plans, and the right one has his own ideas, but in the end, he didn't make a mess.

Now, Ye Di is pregnant, Gu Xi has become a hurdle, how Ding Ning wants to step over, Yang Du is eyes are in his eyes, and he is anxious in his heart.

But he really couldn't care about it, so he could only sigh secretly: "Hmm." (To be continued.) )
