Chapter 160: Let the song
After nearly half a year of filming, "Boxing" and "Danger", which were written, directed and acted by Qi Lei, were completed.
At the same time, the other two TV series "Martial Arts" and "Fairy Sword" in the plan of three dramas and one drama also came with good news. At this time, the crew work of these two dramas has begun to move into the post-production cycle!
Just six. On Children's Day, Qi Lei received a call from the directors of the two crews, saying that he wanted to start thinking about the music creation of the two plays.
What made Qi Lei feel even more pressured was that the two animated films "Kung Fu Panda" and "Cars" that were previously produced in cooperation with Japan's Square Company were also selected to be promoted and released at this time. (In fact, these two movies have long been widely promoted all over the country, even in the United States on the other side of the ocean)
As the original creator of these two animated films, Qi Lei must have to be present in person for the premiere ceremony of the two plays!
If the post-production work of one, two, and four or five items piled up, Qi Lei, who had just stopped for less than two days, had to start busy again.
Among them, mastering material editing, character dubbing, post-film art and other work are not difficult for Qi Lei. The difficulty lies in the creation of the plot music works of the two new dramas "Danger" and "Wulin......
Because these two TV series are purely made by Qi Lei personally, no one has filmed them before...... Uh, it should be said that no one thought that these two dramas would come from there before? Can it be adapted into a script for a film and television work!? ……
Therefore, for the background music or main and secondary songs in these two TV series, Qi Lei does not have ready-made music like "Boxer" or "Fairy Sword", and has to be completely original!
……
On this night, if you look at the experience of participating in the filming work in the past. At this time, Qi Lei should have long been hiding in a warm nest with his girlfriend Li Bingbing, or staying with his intimate and gentle little honey Lin Chiling and getting tired of something.
But what about the real situation......
Floating clouds, all of the above are floating clouds.
At this moment, in order to be able to write all the music and song scores and lyrics of his two new plays, Qi Lei is working overtime in the office of his studio!
Although the work he has to do overtime is simply listening to music and looking for information on the Internet, don't think that this is a very enjoyable thing!
That's impossible......
It's easy to write a song, but it's not that hard to write a song that listens to your ears. But if you want to write a song that will get a lot of praise, it will be difficult! Not to mention writing good classics like platinum records......
This kind of song is really a rare pleasure for a singer or lyricist!
A note and a lyric of a classic song, how much energy and effort singers and writers have to put in to create behind the formation of their works, at this moment Qi Lei has a deep understanding.
Although all the music and songs of the two dramas are based on the keynote, Qi Lei has a plan in his heart. But trying to find out the notes and lyrics that suit your heart from the sea of music is too much of a toss!
At least Qi Lei now almost takes the office as his home every day, and he has been searching the Internet day and night for more than a week, and the music he has listened to is not tens of thousands, but there are thousands of them!
What hip-hop, jazz, rock, folklore, customs, still music, classical, and even some unobtrusive Internet songs have been translated by Reviver and listened to a lot.
But it was good for Qi Lei to listen to it, but none of the music he listened to in his ears was a piece of music that could inspire him to write songs. …,
In this regard, Qi Lei felt helpless!
After all, I didn't come from a music class, and now I can reproduce the songs and music I have heard in the past...... Just by doing this, you are already capable of Qi Lei.
But if you want to make your own music like those lyricists and composers, Qi Lei still feels that he lacks the heat!
This can be seen from the fact that he has been busy looking for inspiration in Lehai day and night for several days, but he has not had the slightest desire to let himself write......
……
"Huh~~" After listening to half of the music again, Qi Lei finally reluctantly lost the battle, took off the headphones on his head, put them on the keyboard and sighed.
"Still can't do it...... Oh~~ Damn! This song is really hard to write~~" Qi Lei wrinkled his brows and muttered to himself.
After a while, Qi Lei moved his body and sat down next to the computer again, opened a few documents in the machine, and while browsing, he secretly thought: Maybe now he has to recharge and recharge before he can talk about writing songs! ~
After making a decision, Qi Lei pressed the print button a few times to print out a few copies of the lyrics and song scores on the computer, and put them in the text folder on the side, before turning around and turning off the power of all the equipment in the office and leaving the company.
EARLY THE NEXT MORNING, WHEN EVERYONE CAME TO WORK TO REPORT, QI LEI GATHERED ALL THE STAR ARTISTS IN HIS STUDIO AND SEVERAL STAFF MEMBERS IN THE RECORDING STUDIO THROUGH HIS AGENT KING INTO THE RECORDING STUDIO.
"HI, Qi Da, it's been a long time since I've seen you come to the recording studio! Shouldn't you be thinking about filming instead of being a singer? King Kong, the director of the recording studio, stepped forward and hugged Qi Lei and said.
"Hehe......" Qi Lei smiled at this, changed the topic and said: "Then ~ King Kong, this is for you...... Can you do it? With that, he gave the score to the studio's supervisor, King Kong, so that he could set the right tone for the score.
And after King Kong read it, he was silent for a while before he replied: "No problem, wait for me for half an hour!" After that, he began to work on the control station in the recording studio.
On the other side, Qi Lei turned around and handed a copy of the lyrics and song sheet to Hu Ge who was standing at the door of the recording studio: "Hu Ge, come, this is the theme song of your "Fairy Sword" "June Rain", you take a look first... I'll demonstrate it once after King Kong has the soundtrack, and then I'll hand over this song to you~"
"Huh? …… Qi Da, this, how can this be..."Hu Ge didn't expect that Qi Lei would suddenly give him a big gift, and he was blindsided for a while.
Ignoring Hu Ge's surprise and the disbelief on the faces of the other people beside him, Qi Lei turned his head and handed a copy of the song and the song sheet in his hand to another person: "Xinling, I handed over this song to you, do you have the confidence to sing it well?" ”
“WHY?” The crowd shouted again.
But it was no wonder they were so surprised, because before they came, they only received a notice that they had come to help listen to a few songs, and did not say who was the lead singer of the song.
And everyone has always thought that since it is a song written by Qi Lei, of course it is best sung by Qi Lei himself! Besides, with the current reputation of Revival... If he releases a new song album, the sales are absolutely guaranteed!
But, who knows......
"Qi Lei, aren't you going to sing it yourself?" After being surprised at this time, Chen Ling, Qi Lei's music teacher in the company, opened her mouth and asked the question in everyone's hearts in confusion.
Qi Lei shook his head and explained to Chen Ling: "No, these two songs were written by me especially for the two of them. Sister Chen, you know that my recent work schedule is too dense, so it's not good to come out and be busy with this again! ”
"Is that so?" After listening to this, everyone thought together.
"Okay, I'll leave the song to you two anyway! …… Even if it's a gift from me, the boss, to the two of you as a newcomer to the studio! How, do you have the confidence to sing it well? Qi Lei smiled and asked Hu Ge and Wang Xinling. …,
Hearing Qi Lei's last words, Brother Hu and Wang Xinling were speechless.
You must know that the competition in the entertainment industry is very fierce and cruel, today you may be popular half the sky, but tomorrow everyone can pull you off the horse with a drama and a song......
This kind of thing is really too common in the entertainment industry, and it can be said that the star artists in the entertainment industry are not competing for what is sought after by thousands of fans, or what large-scale activities they have participated in after a few red carpets.
What they are fighting for is just a play, a song, and a chance to perform! ……
And now! ~
Qi Lei gave up such a play, a song, and an opportunity to perform to Hu Ge and Wang Xinling, not to mention whether he is very confident in his star path or anything, just the courage to hand over the fruits of his labor is enough to be admired by all the artists and behind-the-scenes workers under him.
Not everyone can be so generous to give away great development opportunities to others, especially in the big dye vat of the entertainment industry, such things can see the most true heart of a star artist!
Therefore, Hu Ge and Wang Xinling looked at each other and stared at the song sheet in their hands silently for a while, before they both responded loudly and solemnly: "Don't worry, Qi Da, I will work hard!" (I'll do my best~)"
