"May the wind be me, and may the month be me

The willow bottom flying flower is me

Sing to the wine

Be a free and easy me

Ignore the world and say I am

Just be your true self

Spend it laughing

Don't care if it's good or wrong

Sing to the wine

Regardless of cause and effect

Happy in the wind and rain......"

In a large black recording studio, Lin Qingxia was wearing headphones and singing into the microphone in a still somewhat broken Cantonese. Outside the double-layer soundproof glass window of the recording studio, Li Xuan, Xu Xijie and Zheng Yuhan also wore headphones and quietly listened to Lin Qingxia's singing voice from inside.

Suddenly, the music in the headphones stopped, but it was Zheng Yuhan who pressed the stop button on the recording table, only to see him pick up the microphone and say: "Qingxia, the second character in the wind and rain just now, you sang a little wrong." ”

“sorry！ sorry！ Teacher Zheng, just now I sang in Chinese again. Lin Qingxia hurriedly waved the song sheet and apologized in the recording studio.

"It's okay, it's okay, Qingxia, don't be nervous, let's do it again." Zheng Yuhan smiled and made an OK gesture, and when he saw that Lin Qingxia was ready, he pressed the re-recording button again

A burst of Li Xuan's unusually familiar music sounded, Lin Qingxia brewed her emotions for a while, and began to sing again.

At this time, Li Xuan and several people were collectively participating in the recording of songs at Polygram Records on Chatham Road, Tsim Sha Tsui.

If Radio Road is the home of Radio Television and Television in Hong Kong, then Tsim Sha Tsui is the home of Hong Kong record companies. This cape at the southern tip of the Kowloon Peninsula is home to more than a dozen Hong Kong record companies. The big record companies include Polygram and EMI, and the smaller ones are even more, such as Zhengdong, Dongya, and Meika, which Li Xuan has never heard of.

Zheng Yuhan really attaches great importance to this cooperation, and even served as a record producer himself. Since he turned Polygram's Teresa Teng into an international superstar and successfully entered the market a few years ago, he has been stagnant for several years. And its singer Xu Yijie is only influential in Southeast Asia, and this time is an opportunity for him to help Xu Yijie transform into Taiwan, and Zheng Yuhan can't afford not to pay attention to it.

Especially after he knew that Li Xuan planned to record "A Laugh in the Sea" in two versions of Guoyue, he actually asked Li Xuan several times if several other songs could be changed to bilingual. Li Xuan directly saw through this guy's intentions, and handed him another version of each song the next day. Now, all twelve songs on an album are complete, which saves them a lot of trouble.

But Lin Qingxia is miserable, she used to mix in Taiwan, and it would be good to be able to understand Cantonese at this time. So now she is learning Cantonese and recording songs at the same time, which is very painful.

In fact, Lin Qingxia's singing skills are quite good in Li Xuan's opinion, and the tune is basically very accurate. However, it is a pity that her voice is not very recognizable, and it is difficult for people to leave an image of the singer himself after listening to the song.

It's a pity, no wonder Lin Qingxia only left so many songs in later generations.

Suddenly, Li Xuan felt that someone gently patted his right shoulder, and when he looked back, he saw Xu Xijie silently pointing to the door of the recording studio, and turned around and walked outside without saying anything to Li Xuan. Li Xuan frowned, and quietly followed Xu Yijie and walked out.

Li Xuan's identity today is not the author of the song, but the person who gave Xu Xijie and the song, except for Xu Xijie's voice in those songs, all the other choruses had to be sung by Li Xuan. This task was forcibly assigned to him by Xu Yijie, and for this reason, Li Xuan, who was editing on the Shaw Brothers studio, was specially pulled out. But fortunately, the film was only roughly cut, Li Xuan directly hired an editor to help him complete the day's work, and with the script and the scene note, he was not afraid that the film would be cut out by this person.

After the two came out of the recording studio, they went downstairs to a small music rehearsal room one after the other. In the rehearsal room, there are a lot of guitars, basses, electric pianos, and drum kits, and there are several sets, but a few small modern bands.

"What instrument do you choose? Let's practice first. As soon as Xu Xijie entered the door, he picked up a guitar and sat down and asked.

Li Xuan suddenly felt that he couldn't cry or laugh, and helplessly spread his hands and said: "One of the songs of the two of us is composed of ancient musical instruments, and the other is composed of modern instruments, but I can only listen to the drum kit and not beat it." ”

"Stupid, aren't you a great composer who can't change?" Xu Xijie said with disdain.

“……”

The corners of Li Xuan's mouth twitched, and then he reluctantly picked up another guitar and said, "Okay, then I'll use the guitar too." ”

"Well, I've already chosen a guitar, you can choose an electric ......"

"Don't tell me to choose an electronic keyboard!" Li Xuan hurriedly interrupted Xu Xijie's words, and said with a righteous face: "I practiced piano at home and vomited, but I don't want to come out and practice that." ”

"Uh......" Xu Xijie was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand helplessly and said, "Okay, okay, both of us use guitars." ”

Li Xuancai didn't care what Xu Yijie thought, picked up the guitar and sat down, and first simply played a minor key to try the timbre. The guitar is much easier to learn than the piano, although Li Xuan can only play it twice now, but it is enough to fool a pure layman.

As soon as he finished trying the guitar tone, Li Xuan heard Xu Xijie, who was sitting opposite him, laughing: "Haha, you play the song "Two Tigers" very well!" ”

The children's song "Two Tigers" appeared when it was **, especially now that Boss Jiang in Taiwan likes to listen to this song very much, and from time to time he leads his subordinates to sing two sentences, and also completes the extended version of "Two Tigers" "Three Tigers", so this song is also a well-known children's song in Hong Kong.

Li Xuan pursed his mouth disdainfully before continuing: "This is not "Two Tigers". ”

"Not 'Two Tigers'?" Xu Guanjie was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "This tune is obviously yes, not yet!" So you say, what is this song called? ”

Li Xuan didn't answer at all this time, but held the guitar in his arms and fiddled with it again. A cheerful voice came, and Li Xuan also sang along: "**Local tyrant, **local tyrant, divide the field, divide the field." We're going to be masters, we're going to be masters, what a joy, what a joy ......"

“……”

Xu Xijie looked at Li Xuan with a strange expression, and then raised his right hand and gave Li Xuan a thumbs up. Although Xu Yijie was born and raised in Hong Kong, the ten years in the north also had a profound impact on Hong Kong, so he can understand these words.

However, obviously Xu Yijie misunderstood, when Li Xuan crossed over, the meaning of the local tyrant was completely different from the current local tyrant, and Li Xuan only thought the lyrics were interesting at that time and wrote them down.

It's just that Li Xuan doesn't seem to need to explain this misunderstanding.

"Which song do we practice first?" Li Xuan asked casually as if he were talking about the topic.

"What other ......song can there be" Xu Xijie replied quite arrogantly: "Of course, it's "A Laugh in the Sea"! ”

“ok！ So here we go. ”

The lyrics of the tune have long been memorized in the hearts of the two, and the guitars of the two are also in tune, and after a long prelude, Xu Yijie opened his mouth and sang.

Canghai laughed

The tide on both sides of the strait

The ups and downs follow the waves, only remember the present day

The sky laughs

The tide of the world

Whoever loses wins

God knows

Jiangshan ......"

Li Xuan felt that something was wrong the more he played, it was originally a very heroic song, Xu Xijie sang it as if he had broken half of his breath, and his pride was directly reduced by half, which made Li Xuan feel extremely uncomfortable.

"Stop, stop singing!" Li Xuan hurriedly waved his hand and called a stop.

"Uh......" Xu Guanjie was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Singing it wrong? ”

Li Xuan rubbed his eyebrows, and said with a cold face: "It's not right, I didn't feel any pride in the song you sang." ”

"Not arrogant?"

"Hmm." Li Xuan nodded, thought about it again and continued: "Let's try again, this time you don't have too much anger when you sing, the key words bite the point, let's try it again!" ”

"Roar? Still less gas? Xu Xijie glared and said, "Don't be angry, it's easy to sing out of tune." ”

Li Xuan straightened the guitar in his hand and replied casually: "My song, it doesn't matter if you run out of tune as long as you don't run too far, but you must sing it with pride, this is called a beautiful beauty covering a hundred ugliness!" ”

“……”

It was the first time Xu Xijie had heard that it didn't matter if the singing was out of tune, he glanced at Li Xuan strangely, nodded and responded: "That's okay, let's roar once this time!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Xu Xijie played the guitar again, and Li Xuan quickly followed the beat and played.

Canghai laughed

The tide on both sides of the strait

The ups and downs follow the waves, only remember the present day

The sky laughs

The tide of the world ......"

This time, the words are heavy and the voice is big, and the pride in the song is expressed. Li Xuan nodded appreciatively while playing the guitar, and Xu Xijie, who has only been singing popular minor tunes, seems to have found a trick, the more the song is sung, the better, and when he sang it the second time, he only made a mistake and went out of tune once.

At the end of the song, Xu Xijie put down the guitar in his hand and sighed: "I didn't expect that I would have one day to sing with my voice pulled." ”

"You don't just have one day." Li Xuan pursed his lips and said, "The four songs I gave you, you have to sing them to me with your voice!" ”

“……”

Li Xuan ignored Xu Xijie's speechless expression, and continued with a long sigh of relief: "It's good that you pulled me over today, otherwise these songs would be ruined according to your original singing." No, I'm not worried, I'll have to watch you finish recording all the songs here and then go back and cut the film. ”

“……”

Xu Xijie suddenly felt that he might be even worse than the current Lin Qingxia! (To be continued.) )
